Chapter 7: Eccentric

The man's face changed, and he squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Yan carefully: "Who are you?"

Lin Yan glanced at the other party and casually threw the token in his hand to the other party. "You'll understand when you look at it. ”

The man stretched out his right hand and took the flying token, then his pupils shrank, and he hurriedly bowed: "Welcome deacon." ”

After speaking, the man quietly heard his shopkeeper call the stupid young man behind him.

The young man was also a spirit, and he suddenly understood that he had provoked someone he couldn't afford to provoke, and when he remembered his previous behavior, he couldn't help but tremble, and hurriedly squatted down and saluted Lin Yan.

"The sect should have delivered the news to you?" Lin Yan glanced at the young man behind the man. He casually took the token handed back by the man.

As soon as the young man raised his head, he saw this big man who even had to salute the shopkeeper, his body trembled, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly lowered his head and didn't look at it much.

The man was half-squatting, and he also noticed that Lin Yan glanced at the young man behind him, and his heart trembled slightly, he was afraid that the other party would be angry at his previous rude behavior, and then said: "It is said that the sect will send a deacon to come in the next few days, let me wait to help." ”

"Lord Deacon, please forgive me for our rude behavior in the past. The man then added, and after speaking, he glanced at Lin Yan's expression, and found that the other party shook his head, and immediately felt relieved. Although he can be said to be not afraid of anyone in this Falling Star City, the person in front of him can convict himself of rudeness.

Lin Yan immediately glanced at the man and said, "Tell me about the cult." ”

The man nodded, and then said, "Lord Deacon, let's go into the inner hall and talk." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around and said to the young man behind him: "Little Si, you are guarding outside, and no one is allowed to disturb the deacon and me." ”

"Understood. The young man hurriedly said, and glanced at Lin Yan with some fear after speaking.

Lin Yan only smiled slightly, although the age difference between them was not very big. But Lin Yan's experience in the past seventeen or eighteen years can not be compared with the other party.

Then the man led the way, and Lin Yan followed behind him. They entered the inner room on the first floor.

The young man who was called the fourth junior by the middle-aged couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing Lin Yan leave, and secretly said that it was dangerous.

............

The inner room is not very large, but it is very bright, and there is a window in the innermost wall that allows sunlight to shine in.

Lin Yan walked over to the only table in the inner room and sat down. Looking up, the somewhat restrained man said with a slight smile.

"Sit down and talk about it. ”

The man was slightly stunned, then nodded, and sat opposite Lin Yan.

"Now tell me what's going on with this cult in Falling Star City?" Lin Yan glanced at the man and then said.

The man pondered for a moment: "Just a month ago, a cult came to Falling Star City, and this cult is very cautious. No matter how his subordinates track it down, they still don't know much about this cult. Except for knowing that they call themselves the Great Ming Sect, where they came from, how many people there are, and the purpose of coming here has not been discovered by the subordinates. ”

"Huh?" Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, his brows furrowed slightly, this cult is so mysterious, it seems that if he wants to solve it as soon as possible, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.

"What kind of outrageous behavior did this cult have when it came to Falling Star City?" Lin Yan's eyes flickered and he asked slowly.

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, and said helplessly on his face: "There may be, but my subordinates don't know." ”

Lin Yan's face changed slightly, and the index finger of his right hand kept tapping on the table, making a dingdong sound, this time it was difficult to do, there was no information at all, where should I start.

Suddenly, Lin Yan noticed that the middle-aged man opposite looked hesitant, and he understood that the other party had something to say.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. ”

"But a few days ago, I received a message in the next place, but I'm not sure if it's true or not?" the man glanced at Lin Yan, and then said with little confidence. Apparently he didn't have much confidence in the news.

"Oh?" Lin Yan stopped moving in his hand, and then looked at the man: "Whether it's true or not, you say it first and let me hear it." ”

"Yes. The man said respectfully: "It is said that three days later, they had a small gathering in the Ming Sect, and it was in a very famous restaurant in the city, the Drunken Immortal Building. ”

"......" Lin Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his heart was happy, and he said in his heart that no matter whether this news is true or not, it is worth going on by himself, after all, there are no other clues at the moment.

The middle-aged man knew that the other party wanted to go when he saw Lin Yan's expression, so he couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "Lord Deacon, my subordinates don't know if they should say a word?"

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. Lin Yan said.

"This cult is very weird, some time ago, a group of disciples in the sect came to exterminate this cult, but now there is no news. Therefore, the subordinates thought that if the deacon went hastily, he might be in danger. ”

"It's not that the deacons aren't skilled enough, it's that we don't know much about them. The man was afraid that Lin Yan would think that he looked down on him, so he immediately added.

Lin Yan smiled slightly, it seems that this person is a little worried about me, but he can only understand the other party's kindness: "Don't worry, I still have some confidence in myself." ”

As long as he is not a monk in the Soul Melting Period, he has nothing to fear, but he is not easy to explain to the other party.

After the middle-aged man heard Lin Yan's words, he lowered his head slightly and a glimmer of light quietly flashed in his eyes.

Lin Yan's eyes narrowed into a slit, and his gaze quietly fell on the middle-aged man with his head down.

The man suddenly felt a faint discomfort in his body, as if someone was looking at him. Look at yourself! The man's heart immediately sank, and then he raised his head to look at the other side, only to see Lin Yan Lin Yan was looking at him with a smile on his face, his face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously turned his head, not daring to continue to look at Lin Yan.

"I'm afraid this person is weird!" Lin Yan's squinted eyes slowly opened, and at the same time, there was a smile on his face, and then he stood up and said, "You arrange a place for me to live first, and in three days, I will go to the Drunken Immortal Building to see if there is any gain." ”

"Yes. When the man saw Lin Yan standing up, he didn't dare to continue to do it, and stood up and bowed respectfully to Lin Yan.

Then the man took Lin Yan to the second floor and chose a relatively spacious room for him to live in temporarily.

Then the man hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Yan and went downstairs alone.

In the room, Lin Yan was the only one left, he stood by the window, looking into the distance, his eyes narrowed and narrowed, almost becoming a slit, and he said that this person was strange, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with his words. Wrong...... Lin Yan's eyes widened, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When the middle-aged man went downstairs, he saw the little four sitting on the chair dozing off, and he couldn't help but be angry: "Bastard boy, I'm lazy here again, and I don't want to do it." ”

The man subconsciously injected aura into his voice, so much so that the sound resounded throughout the room like a thunderbolt from a sunny day.

Xiao Si, who was in a coma, was buzzing in his ears by this roar. Immediately afterwards, he jumped up from the chair in a panic, glanced at the middle-aged man with a flattering face, and shouted: "Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you, you have such a big temper, could it be that person who provoked you?"

After speaking, Xiao Si finished rolling up his sleeves, and as long as the shopkeeper spoke, he would go up and fight with that person.

"Hmph, you slippery boy, do you really dare to fight him desperately?" the man also grinned, amused by the young man.

"If you dare to provoke my shopkeeper, you just don't deal with Xiaosi. Xiao Si trotted to the man's side and said flatteringly, "That adult didn't hold a grudge against my rudeness before, did he?"

"You kid. The shopkeeper smiled slightly, knowing that this sentence was what he wanted to ask the most, and he couldn't help but be speechless. Then the man returned to normal, looked at the young man in front of him and said, "You are waiting here, what does that adult need, you must achieve it, don't annoy the other party." ”

"Shopkeeper, are you going out?" Xiao Si asked without thinking about hearing the man's tone.

The middle-aged man nodded.

Seeing the man nodding, Xiao Si consciously didn't ask more, he is a person who knows how to measure and knows when to ask and when to shut up.

"Take care of the store, I'll go back as soon as I go. With that, the man walked outside.

The boy watched the man walk out of the store, and immediately returned to his chair and fell asleep.

By the time he woke up, it was already dark and the streets were sparsely populated.

I couldn't help but stand up and yawn heavily. But his body suddenly froze, and he moved half a circle towards it with some stiffness, only to see a young man looking at him with a smile on his face.

"Hmm. Xiao Si's pupils widened, and he bowed in a panic and saluted: "Participate in the adult." ”

"Where did your shopkeeper go?" Lin Yan nodded, and then asked out loud.

"The shopkeeper is out. Xiao Si opened his mouth and said.

"Oh. Lin Yan sighed, and did not continue to speak, but turned around and walked towards the inner hall behind him.

Just as Xiao Si was about to take a breath of relief, Lin Yan's somewhat muffled voice suddenly came from in front of him: "When your shopkeeper comes back, let him come to my room." ”

"Yes. Xiao Si wanted to be relieved, but he swallowed it and replied anxiously.

When he raised his head, there was no longer Lin Yan in front of him.

Whew, Xiao Si sang a breath, and his heart was really uncomfortable.

............

When the sky was completely covered in black, the middle-aged man finally appeared on the street at the door.

The sharp-eyed Xiao Siyi saw his shopkeeper coming back, trotted to the door, and shouted with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you are back." ”

The middle-aged man who hadn't walked in yet glanced at Xiao Si and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Xiao Si turned his mouth towards it and said, "That lord said, when you come back, let you go to his room." ”

"Did he say something about me?"

Xiao Si touched his head, thought about it for a moment, and shook his head wildly.

When the man heard this, he stood in place, silent, but his eyes subconsciously looked at the second floor.
