Chapter Ninety-Six: A Battle of Wits and Courage
The last thing Lu Dian heard before he fell unconscious was "Stop!" Although he couldn't see the vine disappear, Lu Dian knew that he should be fine. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info He woke up on a bed in a guest room, the room was simple and elegant, quite a bit quiet and inactive.
An old man sat on the edge of the bed next to Lu Dian and said lightly, "Childe is awake?"
"Your Excellency?"
"In Xiayue Ximing, the current head of the Yue clan in Song Xi County. Zhifeng has many offenses, and the old man apologizes to his son. β
Lu Dian sneered twice: "Mr. Yue, what is there to apologize for." I have never met Yue Zhifeng, I don't know who wants my life?" Lu Dian knew that it was very risky to say this, but instead of hiding under the table and being scared all the time, it was better to simply expose it to the table, let's make it clear. He just wanted to find out what happened to Lin Mengru back then, and he didn't want to put his life into it.
Childe laughed. Zhifeng has now been taken down, and the old man is also asking the family elder to interrogate him why he made a move to Gongzi. β
"Mr. Yue, even if you want to make up a reason, can you please make up a decent reason?"
"The old decay sentence is true, and what Zhifeng did really has nothing to do with the old decay or the Yue clan. The old man didn't understand why he was attacking you. The old man looked sincere. Lu Dian said lightly: "Really?"
"The old man's words are true. β
Lu Dian pondered for a while and said, "Then even if he loses his mind and goes crazy, there must be a reason." β
"Hey, that kid Zhifeng, since his mother passed away ten years ago, he has become depressed, and he rarely interacts with people except for Moss Ming on weekdays, but I don't know how Gongzi tricked him into the downtown area?" Yue Ximing said lightly.
Lu Dian chuckled in his heart. This kind-hearted old fox actually directly pointed out that he was a liar, no wonder he was reluctant to talk about Wu Angong, it seemed that he was reminding himself not to continue to pursue the matter. Sure enough, none of the heads of these Golden Book Clans are fuel-efficient lamps.
Lu Dian pondered for a while and said: "Talking about deception, the old gentleman is inevitably a little exaggerated, just some exchanges at the tea ceremony." Now that the old gentleman has seen what happened to Wu Angong, why should I save me if I have the intention to deceive?"
The old fox Yue Ximing smiled faintly: "Although the Yue clan of Song Xi County lives in a corner and rarely interacts with the outside world on weekdays, Baishui County is adjacent to us after all, and although some major events lag behind, I have also heard of it." β
"Oh, could it be that the old gentleman has the heart to go to Whitewater County to preside over the overall situation?"
The old man hurriedly shook his head and said, "Don't dare, even the Feihua Lin clan has been wiped out, and my small courtyard doesn't dare to interfere." However, since Baishui County has been suppressed by the Heavenly Master of the Yunyin Holy Sect, there shouldn't be any big problems? You are really bold enough to come and deceive with the Duke of Wu An? I think you must know some inside information. β
Lu Dian looked at this kind-hearted old man, this guy was definitely the most hidden of the main center of several Xiuzhen families he had ever seen. No wonder Lin Mengru couldn't find the slightest clue about the disappearance of the Lin clan in Song Xi County, and it must have something to do with this old man. I even want to take out the secret from him, and it seems that I can't use some means.
"Old gentleman, doesn't you know about the destruction of the Yunyin Holy Sect?"
The old man's face turned pale suddenly, and Yue Ximing, who had always been good at hiding his emotions, was broken by Lu Dian's words. Lu Dian took the opportunity to say lightly: "I am not deceiving the matter of Duke Wu'an, with the strength of Duke Wu'an, if I don't take care of the people who follow, I'm afraid I would have arrived at the Baishui County Mansion." If you follow the line of Lin's annihilation, will you find some strange things?"
Yue Ximing's eyes suddenly flashed, and a fine light stared at Lu Dian. Lu Dian knew that he had said what he was talking about, and now was a matter of life and death, and his situation at this moment was definitely ten thousand times more dangerous than when he duel with Yue Zhifeng. In the case of man being a sword and I being a fish and meat, what choice will this old man make? Will he kill himself and kill himself? Or will he leave himself to speak in the future.
"Are you true?" Yue Ximing once again revealed the temperament of an old fox and said lightly.
"Whether it's true or not, the old gentleman can judge why he wants me to say it?"
Yue Ximing pondered for a while and said, "What is your purpose?" He always felt that there was a gap when he thought about it, what was Lu Dian's purpose?
The boy made the purpose clear to the old gentleman at the beginning, but the old gentleman did not believe it. β
"What happened to the Lin family ten years ago?" Yue Ximing couldn't believe it.
Lu Dian said lightly: "Exactly." β
The old man thought for a while and said, "What does this matter have to do with the matter of Baishui County? This matter has passed for so many years, and even the Lin clan has not asked about this matter, so who do you have to ask about it?"
"It's not a question, it's just that the Lin family wants to check if there are still any relics outside, after all, the Lin family has some incense kindness to me, and it is natural to take care of it. Lu Dian opened his mouth to be false, and now he is used to it.
"Ten years ago, I was out of the vein, and that's the only thing I can tell you. The matter of the Lin clan in Song Xi County can no longer be investigated, and I don't care about the little girl of the Lin clan in Baishui who is with you, so you can leave Song Xi County tonight. Yue Ximing stood up after speaking, and the determination of a long-time superior made it impossible to guess the truest thoughts in his heart. Maybe it was because of the guilt of what happened ten years ago, or maybe it didn't have much impact on the family itself, so he decided to let Lu Dian go, but in exchange, Lu Dian was not allowed to investigate this matter again.
Lu Dian said: "What about Wu Angong?" Lu Dian also wanted to give it a try, after all, the secret that Lin Mengru carried was very important in itself, and to unlock this huge net, she was the key to it.
Yue Ximing said coldly: "If you mention this matter again, the old man does not dare to guarantee that you will be able to get out of Song Xi County alive." β
Lu Dian savored the determination of this sentence. At that time, the matter between the Lin clan and the Yue clan of Song Xi County must not have been as simple as he thought, and he took the opportunity to eliminate the Lin clan of Song Xi County by sending troops to attack, which made the Baishui Lin clan suffer a dumb loss. However, Yue Shi was reluctant to let himself check again, and it seemed that he could only take one step at a time.
Yue Ximing walked to the door, and Lu Dian suddenly said: "Old man, can I see Yue Moming and Yue Zhifeng, after all, they are about to travel far away, although they meet in Pingshui, they can be regarded as halfway bosom friends, and it is the right thing to say goodbye." β
Yue Ximing said coldly: "The old man said that this matter was definitely not instructed by the old man, since you don't want to believe that you want to interrogate it in person, then go ahead." The old decay will not stop you, but tonight is the time limit. After the child, if the old man sees you stranded in the city again, he will kill you and show no mercy. β
"Did your Yue Clan's spies see it?" Lu Dian asked with a smile.
"Young man, don't challenge the majesty of the decrepit, or there will be no place in this world for you. "Yue Xi Ming Dao.
Lu Dian sat up slowly, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, wrote a letter, took out a scalpel from the double ring, and attached: "Please also ask the old gentleman to bring a letter to my fiancΓ©e." β
Yue Ximing turned around and took the letterhead and said lightly: "Letter, the old man will help you send it; people, the old man will also help you send it; the fiancΓ©e? β
Lu Dian stared into Yue Ximing's eyes and said, "The old gentleman doesn't think we are like it?"
"I like to study numerology in my spare time, and I think there is no marriage between the two, but the girl in the green shirt is afraid that there is a dew marriage with the son's numerology. Ordinary people also want to be contaminated with gold books and golden characters, young people, don't look down on all the cultivators in the world. After Yue Ximing finished speaking, he turned around and left the room, leaving Lu Dian with a big back. Lu Dian wondered in his heart: What is this? Is this a magic stick? Nonsense!
He hurriedly turned over and got out of bed, and hurried to find Yue Moss Ming and Yue Zhifeng while it was still dark, this matter was definitely not simple. He had a gut feeling that he might be turning over something unacceptable.
