Chapter 27: Suspicion

The river breeze blew at night, carrying a moist chill, and people couldn't help but tighten their clothes to resist the aggressive cold, but it still couldn't stop the hot smell of the delicacies on the dinner table. As night fell, the lights on both sides of the river bank were lit up, and the empty seats in the restaurants were filled one by one, and the voices were full of people.

Lin Yurou gave herself a chopstick side dish, because the hard dishes were delayed, and several people were so hungry that they almost ate the side dishes. She said: "Helping the sect cultivate disciples is also a way to contribute, although the remuneration is very small, but the advantage is the least risk, and there is no need to run around, so many people choose to take apprentices, and the remuneration is calculated according to the number and quality of disciples, so the more you bring, the better." ”

"I don't need to emphasize the role of immortal jade anymore, right? For more rewards, this has caused a situation of 'grabbing people', especially the lower the cultivation level, the more need to accept apprentices, almost every disciple has at least three or more teachers to choose from when they first become the inner gate. ”

Liu Qingmian nodded deeply, and Lin Yurou talked eloquently on the side, but the words were more logical and rational than before, and they were much more mature. Look, she really changed a lot after going to Baihua Peak, she wasn't so careful before, and she wouldn't pay attention to these things.

The more Liu Qingmian understands Baihua Peak, the more she understands the gap between it and Chi Wanfeng, and she can also understand why the senior sisters yearn for it, despite this, when she thinks of the master and the ancestor, it is impossible to say that there is no mustard for the departure of the senior sisters, but after a short time together today, the little blame and complaint that originally existed in her heart has completely disappeared at this time.

Liu Qingmian thought that if he saw that the senior sisters were doing well, Master Feng Ling should also be happy, but he didn't know where Zhong Hanyan was...

Thinking of this, Lin Yurou, who went to Baihua Peak with Zhong Hanyan, should know, so Liu Qingmian opened his mouth and asked, "Senior sister, Senior Sister Zhong, she..."

Who knew that Liu Qingmian was just about to speak, but he was interrupted by a loud shouting from a restaurant maid, and at the same time, he also brought a big bowl of steaming boiled fish fillet: "Be careful—the dishes are coming——"

"It's coming! Eat quickly, eat quickly, starve me to death!" Lin Yurou picked up the chopsticks first, Liu Qingmian was also very hungry, only to see that everyone else was like a tiger pounced on food, and she couldn't bother to speak, so the topic stopped, and then chatted about something else while eating, and she didn't think about it until she finished eating.

After being full of wine and food, the three girls who were still excited to go shopping before all chose to go back to sleep because they were too tired to travel today.

Until they left the restaurant, they were still met with a few groups of customers who had just entered, and the pedestrians on the street were still the same as when they were at the most crowded just now, these pedestrians were dressed in different clothes, but most of them were quite well-dressed, and they seemed to be quite wealthy and had sufficient purchasing power, otherwise it would not be possible to feed so many shops.

The four of them returned to the quiet Jiangfu, the street where the Jiangfu is located is relatively narrow, there are only two street lamps on this street from beginning to end, and the brightly lit street outside can be called two worlds, the surroundings are quiet and dim, and even their footsteps can be heard clearly.

Liu Qingmian looked up and counted the stars, while listening to the other three chatting without a word, suddenly, she suddenly turned around, and at the corner of the street was a lonely street lamp, listlessly illuminating the few roads around her, the dim light was better than nothing.

Other than that, there wasn't even a moth or bug under the lamp, let alone a person.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Huaiyi's concerned voice came from behind.

"Just now I seemed to sense that there were people over there, not ordinary people. Liu Qingmian thought back to that strange feeling, her current sense of internal breath is increasing day by day, although she can't sense the internal force of the martial artist in the human realm well, but she can be sure of the feeling of the breath just now: "It's a cultivator!" she said.

Lin Yurou said nervously: "You mean that there were cultivators following us just now? Could it be Guang Yaoke during the day? No, he can't do this." ”

The four of them kept moving, and even sped up, and soon walked to the gate of Jiangfu, which gave them a sense of security.

Liu Qingmian groaned: "Yes, it shouldn't be him, it's not like this feeling when he was behind me during the day today, I hope it was my delusion just now, let's go in quickly!"

The four of them were a little disturbed by this incident, especially the two sisters of the Lin family, who had no combat ability, and they held each other's arms tightly.

The doorkeeper opened the door for everyone, and the house was still as quiet as before, but after this incident, everyone hoped that it would be quieter.

Worried that the girls would be afraid, Jiang Huaiyi took them to his father's study so that everyone could sit together and chat, and according to him, the house was not so quiet when he was a child. Jiang Huaiyi has a total of seven siblings in his family, and he is the second brother in the family.

Father Jiang Yan is not at home all the year round, and the eldest brother is addicted to martial arts practice and worships the sect of the human world, and the third brother is because of the long distance, so the third aunt takes him to live in the school and does not go home often. In addition, he has four sisters, all of whom are now married, and only a few wives and concubines are still living at home, but they don't like to go out, so the house is so deserted.

Several people discussed the arrangements for these two days, the main purpose of this trip to the human realm is to return and exchange jade bricks, so the schedule is naturally headed by Lin Yurou, and she thought about it for a while, and said: "We came here this time to find out the quality of this batch of bricks, although the sect has always not restricted the whereabouts of the inner disciples, but don't forget that the Seven Xuanwu Society is coming soon." ”

Speaking of this year's Seven Xuanwu Society, even in the human world is quite famous, in the past, because of the fear of hurting innocent audiences, so the Seven Xuanwu Society generally only invites a few important people to watch, but it is said that this year, the sect specially ordered a batch of 'Dharma Protector Immortal Flags' from the Jinguang Gate, which has a lot of rare treasures, and then cooperated with the sect's ban to make a large area that can effectively absorb damage, so this year's competition, there should be a considerable number of audience participation.

I have to say that since Yan Lingchu took office, the Yunxian Sect has worked harder and harder in terms of income generation, and the changes brought about are also obvious, the scale of the sect is getting bigger and bigger, and there is already a faint momentum to catch up with the Seven Xuanzong in terms of numbers, but it is still far from the same in terms of quality. However, in terms of the construction of the sect, Baihua Peak is becoming more and more luxurious and extravagant, and I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.

"Sister, you are thoughtful, you should go back earlier to prepare. Lin Shenglian echoed on the side, and couldn't help yawning after speaking, he was already very tired.

Lin Yurou touched her sister's head dotingly, and asked her to rest on her shoulder: "Xiao Mian, will you participate this time?" Do you know that in Baihua Peak, everyone will bet on how many people will participate in Chi Wanfeng this year, of course, I won't participate..."

You Baihuafeng is really boring, Liu Qingmian rolled his eyes in his heart, and slowly spoke: "I have promised Master to participate, as for whether I can enter the top hundred, I don't know, but I will do my best." ”

"Master Feng Ling actually wants you to participate? Don't force yourself, even if you don't go, everyone can understand it. Lin Yurou said that she was quite puzzled by Liu Qingmian's insipid statement of 'wanting to compete'.

This is also normal, Liu Qingmian has always been in the mood of being a gangster before, but now, she has to have a goal.

Seeing that Liu Qingmian didn't explain anything, Lin Yurou showed a relieved smile: "If you volunteered, then I'll rest assured, but speaking of which, you have really changed a lot, I heard a lot of rumors about you from my fellow senior sister, saying that you were captured by the first demon of Wanyu Cave and came back intact, and your cultivation has also entered the realm so much, you have now become the topic of the Yunxian Sect!"

"How can I be so exaggerated... Wait, what kind of hole are you talking about?" Liu Qingmian frowned.

Lin Shenglian fell asleep on the side, not affected by the raising of the voices of the two of them in the slightest.

And the wordless scroll in Liu Qingmian's heart, which was about to be sealed in the depths of her memory, had pointed to Wanyu Cave from afar, and now she actually learned that the demon was so coincidentally a person from Wanyu Cave?

"Ahh

Liu Qingmian frowned and waved his hand to interrupt her: "Don't want to change the topic, senior sister, you are the worst at lying, you will be nervous as soon as you lie, you can't hide it at all, let's say, is he from Wanyu Cave?"

A struggling look flashed on Lin Yurou's face, although the master had solemnly warned her not to tell Liu Qingmian that it was for her good, but when she really faced this victim back then, the guilt in her heart still prevailed.

Why can't you tell her? Isn't that what she should do?

Lin Yurou finally gave up the struggle and confessed: "Yes, hey, this is what Master Nan Ying secretly told me, and specially told me not to tell you, don't think about it, she said that this kind of thing has not happened before, and there are many such things in small sects, and even if some sisters are lucky enough to be saved, in the end, there are also those who choose to commit suicide because they can't bear the truth, so I don't want to tell you, because I am worried that you will not be able to think about it..."

Liu Qingmian was suddenly amused, "Why can't I think about it?" lice are not afraid of itching, and the bomb on her body is not just this one!

Lin Yurou smiled bitterly: "Think about it, how many of those girls who were captured by the Demon Sect can have a good end? Even if you come back intact, others will inevitably think... Now most people in the sect don't know about this, and we won't tell anyone about it. As she spoke, she couldn't help but reach out and hold Liu Qingmian's hand, as if she wanted to give her courage.
