After Han Ze's death, when all the people in the Jiqing Gambling House dispersed, Xu Yun, Ma Lin and A Fei burned the world's No. 1 Gambling House along with Dugu's body, and then left Jiqing Town. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

After driving for a few hours, and seeing that the sky was getting dark, the three of them decided to spend the night in the woods in the suburbs and wait until dawn.

Ma Lin leaned against a big tree, looking at the moon that climbed into the air, and his heart was very calm. This long-lost calm, since he left the desert island at sea, has not been felt, and now, that familiar feeling, back.

He learned from Xu Yun that Wu Renyi had written a letter to Xu Yun before he died, asking Xu Yun to go down the mountain to rescue himself, who had become a traitor to the Heavenly King Gang, and his heart was relieved. He even regretted a little, regretting that the last conversation with Wu Renyi ended in a quarrel.

There was a burst of aroma in the forest, which was the aroma of barbecue meat from the game caught by Ah Fei's barbecue. Ma Lin felt comfortable, and couldn't help but take out the bamboo flute from his arms, and kept rubbing it—he hadn't played this flute for a long time. He brought the flute to his mouth, and the magical bamboo pipe gave birth to a melodious melody, which was very pleasant.

"Here you go. As soon as the song was played, Ah Fei handed a roasted rabbit to Ma Lin.

Ma Lin took the bamboo flute, took the roast rabbit with a smile and said, "Thank you, did Xu Daxia eat it?"

"He doesn't eat meat, so he finds wild fruit to eat, and we don't have to worry about him. Ah Fei sat next to Ma Lin, gnawed on the rabbit and said, "Brother Ma, have we met before?"

"Nope. Ma Lin shook his head and said, "Why do you ask that?"

"I just think your flute sounds familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere, that's why I want to ask you. ”

"Familiar?"

"Hmm. Ah Fei said, "It sounds a little sad, and it makes me think of my family at once." I heard this kind of flute once before when I was in the mountain behind Yunzhuang. ”

"Really?" Ma Lin smiled, "How long has it been since you've been home?"

Ah Fei skimmed a bone and said casually, "How long...... I don't want to think about it, I don't have a home anymore anyway, and I can't go back even if I want to. ”

"Home, there will always be. Ma Lin looked at the sky that had become dark and said meaningfully.

"Will there always be? Brother Ma, where is your home?"

"In Gangneung Province. ”

"Gangneung Mansion?"

"Yes, Gangneung Province, I was planning to go there as well. ”

"Then you don't plan to go to Yunzhuang?" Ah Fei said, "I thought you were going back to Baiyun Peak with me and Brother Xu!"

"I never said I was going to Yunzhuang. ”

"Then it seems that when we get to the river, we will have to separate. ”

"Yes, if you have the opportunity in the future, you will come to Gangneung Mansion to find me. Ma Lin took a bite of rabbit meat and said happily.

About a month later, Ma Lin found the residence of Chunniang and others in Jiangling Mansion according to the address given by Dugu Regret. In fact, this place is not difficult to find, as long as you ask where the descendants of the Medicine King live, everyone in Jiangling Mansion will know it. That Sun Baihui has already relied on his brilliant medical skills to make a name for himself in Jiangling Mansion.

Ma Lin stood across the street and saw Luo Qin and Sun Baihui sitting in the courtyard. That Luo Qin seemed to be helping Sun Baihui pound herbs, and the two of them were talking and laughing, looking very happy.

Because his appearance has been destroyed by the fire, Ma Lin was afraid that these women would be sad when they saw this ugly face, so on the way, he specially imitated his previous appearance to make a human skin mask, but he always felt that some places were not quite similar, and he couldn't satisfy himself by changing them, but he was afraid that the master would see through them at a glance, so he never used it.

At this moment, he clutched the human skin mask tightly, and after repeated hesitation in his heart, he still put it on his face. But after taking a few steps, Ma Lin ripped off the mask again and tore it to pieces. "I, Ma Lin, are like this, so why bother to lie to them?" he thought so, and strode towards Luo Qin and Sun Baihui, but as soon as he reached the door, he retreated back.

"Are you here to see a doctor?" asked Sun Bai when he saw a terrifying-looking person.

"I'm ......" Ma Lin stepped into the courtyard, and in his hoarse and deep voice, he only said one word, and he didn't know what to say next.

"Wangwang Wang......" Sun Baihui's atractylodes rushed up, yelled at Ma Lin, suddenly stopped screaming, and ran back to his nest and lay on his stomach.

"I'd better come back another day!" Ma Lin said.

"Wait a minute!" Sun Baihui shouted, "Cangshu used to see a living person, and it would keep screaming until I told it to stop, and it would be quiet. But it's not like that to you, who are you?"

"I ......" Ma Lin couldn't answer, turned around and wanted to leave, but saw Chun Niang carrying a vegetable basket into the door.

"Lin'er?" After all, she grew up watching from a young age, and Ma Lin's every move is too familiar to Chunniang.

Ma Lin couldn't help but swallow his saliva, he was even more panicked now.

"You're not dead!" Chun Niang said as she walked up to Ma Lin.

"Master......" Ma Lin pursed his lips and smiled.

Luo Qin and Sun Baihui were very excited when they learned that it was Ma Lin who "came back from the dead". Sun Baihui repeatedly said that he would definitely find a way to restore Ma Lin's original appearance. And Luo Qin slowly and gently touched Ma Lin's potholed face, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"Does it hurt?" asked Luo Qin softly.

"At first, it did hurt, but now it's all grown and it doesn't hurt anymore. Ma Lin smiled, "The way I look now, it's ugly, have you touched it?"

"If only you could come back. Luo Qin said with tears in her eyes, "I can't see what you have become, I only care about whether you are okay or not." ”

"I'm fine now and I'm only going to get better in the future. Ma Lin held Luo Qin's hand and said softly.

A few months later, in the downtown streets of Jiangling Mansion, a new restaurant called "Chun Niu" was opened, and the shopkeeper of this Chun Niu Lou was the graceful Li Chunniang. The capital for the opening of this restaurant is all the gold and silver accumulated by Jiangyang thief Jia Fuben during his lifetime, but only Chun Niang and Ma Lin know about this matter.

The chefs invited by Chunniulou are all well-known chefs in this area. The food is delicious, and the shopkeeper is beautiful, so the guests coming in and out are naturally endless, and the business is very good. Ma Lin sat in the Chunniu Building every day, looking at the scene, if there was a drunk troublemaker, he would not say a word, and threw the troublemaker directly out of the door, saving him from disturbing other guests and missing business. As for the affairs of the rivers and lakes, he no longer cares.

On this day, after the restaurant closed, Ma Lin was cleaning up the tables, chairs and benches in the lobby, but saw Na Chunniang walking down from the second floor, and said to Ma Lin proudly: "Lin'er, this Jiangling Mansion is really better than Niniu Town!

"That's nature, do you still need to say this?" Ma Lin said, "But the place is good, and the house is expensive! Look at how much capital you spent to buy this building!"

"This is called a business, what kind of capital do you feel sorry for?" Chun Niang walked up to Ma Lin and said, "By the way, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?"

"I heard a few diners chatting there today that the leader of the Tianwang Gang Chai Gang was dissatisfied with the rudder because of his collusion with the Khitans, and now he has been driven out of the Tianwang Gang and has gone to Yelu Longqing, the Khitan prince. I also heard that this time to take the lead against the Chai gang leader, it is not easy for the elders to make money. ”

"Oh, is it not easy to make money now?" said Ma Lin without raising his head.

"Yes, it's really impermanent! It's all done for a while, don't forget to lock the door!" said Chun Niang, and went upstairs again.

"Alas, those people are intriguing and fighting to the death, but I didn't expect that in the end, Qian Fat Man became the helper. Ma Lin thought to himself.

Actually, there is another thing that Ma Lin didn't expect, that is, the bewitching woman named Yu Xiao is lying on the bed where money is not easy at the moment......
