Chapter 55: Seeking
The inner courtyard of the Bai family.
Bai Feng came with Li Ling and met Liu Lao Taijun.
In the hall, Mrs. Liu, Bai Qi, Bai Ting, and Bai Ran have been waiting for a long time.
Seeing Li Ling coming, except for the crippled Bai Pavilion, several people stood up.
Mrs. Liu said to Bai Feng: "Feng'er, you go and close the door, don't let anyone in." ”
In Li Lingjin's hall, he sat down directly on the seat of Mrs. Liu's head, picked up the tea in front of him and tasted it carefully.
Bai Feng closed the door of the inner courtyard and came back to see Li Ling sitting in his place, the cup of tea he drank was still drunk by himself, and he stood behind Bai Ran in annoyance.
Li Ling drank the tea on the table in one go, praised the good tea, and said, "I don't know what happened to the old lady calling the boy?"
Old Taijun Liu suddenly stood up from above and bowed to Li Ling, and said sincerely: "On behalf of the Bai family, the old body thanks Your Excellency for protecting my Bai family for so long, and saved the child again, please accept the old body." ”
Li Ling didn't sit up, he was stabbed, although he was much younger than Liu Lao Taijun, but his seniority was there.
Moreover, in order to save Bai Qi, he went to the spiritual realm to be born and died, and almost threw his life there, and he could fully afford this worship.
Bai Feng and Bai Ran both showed resentment.
Li Ling didn't care, and said lightly: "With my seniority, I can afford to worship you, and you don't have to thank me, I was entrusted by the old man to protect your Bai family for five years, and I will leave after five years, everything I have done in the past five years is what it should be." ”
Sure enough, it's him! A few days ago, the bamboo slip sent a message.
Liu Lao Taijun and the others suddenly stood up and saluted Li Ling, "Who is Your Excellency entrusted by, can you tell me?"
Li Ling was silent for a long time, and finally chose to conceal it, it was better for them to know less about the affairs of the cultivation realm.
"It doesn't do you any good to tell you, I can only tell you that the person entrusted to me is dead. Bai Sheng knew about this matter, when I went to the prison to save him, he refused to leave, and it was a pity that he had to die for the country. ”
When Bai Qi and the others heard him mention Bai Sheng, they were all a little sad.
"I originally wanted to protect the Bai family for five years, and leave silently when the agreement expires, but now that you can see it, I hope you don't tell anyone else about this matter, the less you know about this matter, the better for your Bai family. ”
"I'll be a subordinate in the Bai family, don't treat you differently, so as not to arouse the suspicion of people with intentions, sometimes there are some things that need to be covered up by your Bai family, I hope you will cooperate." ”
Mrs. Liu said, "Dare to ask if Your Excellency is an immortal cultivator?"
Li Ling was noncommittal, nodded, and acquiesced.
Bai Qi and the others glanced at each other, and knew in their hearts, no wonder this person had such great ability at a young age, it turned out to be an immortal cultivator.
"The old man has a reluctant request. Old Taijun Liu said respectfully: "Immortal Master, do you see that there are any descendants of my Bai family who are suitable for cultivating immortals?"
Li Ling has been upgraded from "Your Excellency" to an immortal master.
"I'll take a look when I have time. Li Ling said perfunctorily, thought about it, and took out a holy fruit from the mustard seed bag, and said: "This is a rare treasure that I accidentally got when I went to get the cold yin fruit to treat Bai Qi, you can boil it and take it, although it can't be all sick, but it can also strengthen the body and improve many skills." ”
He stood up and said again, "Let me remind you once more that the fewer people know about my affairs, the better. ”
After Li Ling finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly remembered something, turned around and took out a hairpin from his arms.
This was given to him by Bai Sheng in the heavenly prison at the beginning, and asked him to hand it over to Bai Qi.
Sure enough, when Li Ling took out this hairpin, Bai Ting couldn't help but exclaim.
Father's hairpin!"
Li Ling turned to Bai Qi, "This is what Bai Sheng handed over to you on my behalf, saying that if you command the three armies in the future, I will hand over this thing to you, if you want to be an ordinary person, leave it to me, I want it to be useless, leave it for you to think." ”
"By the way, Bai Sheng also asked me to bring a sentence at the beginning, it seems to be about this hairpin, as if it is 'sincere golden phoenix comes, and the moat becomes a thoroughfare. ”
"Divine Talisman..."
Bai Qi and the others exclaimed again.
Li Ling was not interested in any divine talisman, so he threw it to Bai Qi and turned to leave.
After Li Ling left, Bai Ting spoke first: "Mother, do you believe his words?"
Mrs. Liu was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "It shouldn't be wrong, I deliberately looked at his expression when you mentioned the Divine Talisman just now, and it didn't change in the slightest, it was very indifferent, and it can be seen from this that everything he said is true." ”
Bai Feng: "But our Bai family has been in the army for generations, and we don't have any intersection with immortal cultivators." ”
Mrs. Liu's eyes were far away, and she seemed to be stuck in a memory, and after a long time, she said: "I remember that your father said that your grandfather is a famous figure in the cultivation world, and it is estimated that this person is entrusted by your grandfather!"
......
Bai Dazhi took a few servants to teach Li Ling a lesson, but the news that Bai Feng had taught him a lesson spread among the servants.
Especially Bai Feng's sentence "Li Ling is my person," which made everyone think about it.
The reaction of the crowd was mixed, some disdainful, some sighed, and some disdainful.
But more often than not, it is envy and jealousy.
are all slaves, why is this gap so big, Bai Feng has always been a goddess-like figure in everyone's minds, and he is high.
Who knew that you kid took down the goddess silently.
This kind of plot of stealing a young lady can only appear in novels, but it happened around everyone.
I don't know what Miss Feng likes about that kid, isn't it just that he looks better.
Now everyone understands why Li Ling is idle all day long and doesn't work.
In the future, he will be the uncle of the Bai family, how can he do such dirty work?
Bai Dazhuang, Bai Ruobing and the others also knew, and Li Ling's gaze began to become strange.
Several daughters-in-law of the Bai family got together to talk about it, and they were relieved while laughing.
In this era, the twenty-three-year-old Bai Feng is already a big girl, and other girls like her will play soy sauce.
In the past, when I was in the capital, many sons of families loved her, and there were people who came to propose marriage every day, but she couldn't look down on this, and she disliked people who were not manly, and their eyes were above the top.
Later, the Bai family was framed for rebellion, and no one dared to come to the door to propose marriage, so it was delayed.
The matter of Bai Feng before has become the mind of the daughters-in-law of the Bai family.
Although I have found such a young one now, I have finally finished everyone's thoughts.
Didn't you say that the female junior hugged the gold brick, not to mention that with Li Ling's appearance, she was worthy of Bai Feng.
Evening.
In the small winery outside the Bai family's market, after a hard day's work, several servants of the Bai family's paper mill gathered together to drink.
At the wine table, about one or twenty men with delicate faces drank cup by cup, and soon their eyes were drunk and hazy.
He seemed to have something on his mind, and sighed softly from time to time.
"Brother Sun, don't drink anymore, if you drink again, you'll be really drunk. ”
Several servants who came with him persuaded him, but the young man did not listen at all, and still poured cup by cup into his mouth.
The man who drank was named Sun Tao, and he was also a servant of the Bai family, and he was the best in the paper mill except for Jiang Feng, and he had basically mastered the process of papermaking, and he also put forward several good suggestions for improvement, which made the quality of the paper improved a lot.
It can be said that if Jiang Feng was not familiar with the papermaking process first, he would have done it better than Jiang Feng.
He is also popular among the servants of the Bai family, diligent and helpful.
"Why?" After a while, Sun Tao's mind became a little unconscious, and he murmured: "Why does Miss Feng like that kid, since I came to the Bai family and saw her for the first time, she has become the goddess in my heart, all my efforts are for her, she will be happy for a long time as long as she looks at me, but now she likes someone else, all my efforts are in vain, I am unwilling..."
The others looked at each other and sighed, not knowing how to persuade him again.
On the second day, everyone found that Sun Tao had left a letter last night and had left.
......
In the capital of Qin, in a luxurious residence, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes was condescending, looked at Sun Tao at the bottom, and said slowly: "As long as you make better paper and help me defeat the Bai family, you will naturally enjoy endless glory and wealth."
Sun Tao lowered his head and said firmly: "I don't want to be glorious and rich, I just want Miss Baifeng of the Bai family." ”
"Okay, I promise you. ”
