Chapter Eighty-Six, The Old Man?

Although Lin Zhong had already left, the scene was still in chaos, and when the woman was about to leave, a hand grabbed her shoulder.

When the woman looked back, it turned out to be the driver who had been thrown out of the way.

"Who are you, and what have you done?"

Following the direction of the coachman's finger, I only saw that the horse that had been forcibly stopped by the woman fell to its knees at this time, and even trembled all over, and could not pull up at all.

Looking at Lin Chong, who had already walked away, the woman still wanted to know something, frowned, and was a little annoyed in her heart, and said: "You guy, it's not authentic, I stopped your horse, I don't know how many people I saved, so as not to let your lord be imprisoned, you don't thank me, you still want to stop me, I really don't know what to do." ”

At this time, the owner of the carriage, who was also smashed in the carriage, also climbed out of the carriage at this moment, and his face was full of anger, and he said unceremoniously: "What happened just now? Who dares to commit murder in the street in the dignified capital city?"

When the coachman saw that his master was really angry, he hurriedly explained: "Alarming the master is really a small fault, and it is really this woman's ......."

The person in this carriage is a wealthy person in the capital of Jijing, his character is often named Zhe, and his ancestors are also cultivators, so he is also a figure with a head and a face in the capital of Jijing, of course, only relative to mortals.

Chang Zhe frowned and glanced at the woman, and said angrily: "You are the daughter of the He family, you are so ignorant, when I see my ancestor tomorrow, I will definitely treat you and other sins." ”

The woman's willow eyebrows were upside down, she had done a good thing, but she didn't expect to meet such a scoundrel, this kind of thing was just a sudden accident, and the fault was not on either side, so she also planned to explain it well, so as to resolve the misunderstanding between the two parties, but seeing Chang Zhe so disrespectful, she was an acute child, and she was unhappy at the moment, so she immediately took out the waist card symbolizing her identity from her arms.

"I am the eldest daughter of Donglin Mansion, Du Mengmei, you can go to your ancestor and ask him to cure my sins. ”

Chang Zhe was furious and was about to reprimand, when suddenly the whole person trembled.

Donglin Mansion?

"But the Donglin Mansion that has been blessed for generations?" Chang Zhe asked tentatively.

Du Mengmei saw that the other party already knew her identity, and she didn't bother to entangle with him anymore, so she didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.

Looking at her departing back, the coachman asked suspiciously: "Master, just let her go?" ”

"Just an eldest daughter?" Chang Zhe shook his head and said: "That's Donglin Mansion, one of the most powerful families in the capital, although no one is a cultivator, but the people behind her are amazing!"

But said Lin Chong, wandering on the streets of Jijing, looking at the scenery in late autumn that is completely different from the south of the Yangtze River, the sky seems to be bluer, the clouds are thicker, the streets are full of falling leaves, and the wind is colder, which makes people shiver.

After walking for a long time, he didn't know where he was wandering, Lin Zhong looked around, this had already reached the outskirts of the city, there was a wilderness everywhere, withered yellow grass was everywhere, the trees were bare, and there were not a few mansions in sight, but the house in the distance was particularly eye-catching.

Unlike the other courtyards, it seems to be much older, the west side of the courtyard, the wall paint has long since peeled off, a few clusters of flowers and vines that can't be seen to be crawled all over the wall, and a few bamboo poles, on which a few hay are erected, in this afternoon sun, it looks a little dim.

From this angle of Lin Chong, you can also see several rooms in the west courtyard wall, low and dilapidated, at this time there is no sunlight, the same way, the wall skin has long fallen off, it looks uneven, and the grass has grown on the house, as if no one has lived for a long time.

Lin Zhong walked slowly to the gate of the house, the paint on the gate had long lost its color, but the door knocker was bright, giving people a sense of disharmony, and the steps were also covered with dark green moss, but there were still a few footprints on it, which should still be inhabited. Lin Chong stopped slightly, looked at it for a moment, and then wanted to turn around and leave.

Just as Lin Zhong was about to leave, an old and kind voice suddenly came from behind him: "Young man, go in and sit down." ”

Lin Chong looked back when he heard the sound, it was an old man who looked very ordinary, but there was a sense of familiarity coming from him, but Lin Chong couldn't tell what this familiarity was.

When Lin Chong turned around, the old man looked very excited, walked up tremblingly and pulled Lin Chong, and said excitedly: "It's you, it's you......"

Lin Chong's brows furrowed, obviously, the two had met, but Lin Chong couldn't remember anything.

The old man continued, "Don't you remember me? Jiangnan Huiji, the child you rescued from the Kraken!"

Lin Chong's eyes closed slightly, trying to recall, but many things just looked familiar, but they were blank, Wu, Lin Chong suddenly remembered that the memory loss that Emperor Qin had said had been awakened, and other backlashes brought about by awakening, but what it was, Lin Chong really couldn't remember it clearly, logically speaking, this should not be, but Lin Chong always felt that something was missing.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhong said, "I'm sorry, I can't remember." ”

The old man nodded and said, "That's right, it's been sixty years, and it's normal for you living immortals to not remember." ”

The old man said solemnly: "My name is Du Rukong, I am the owner of the Donglin Mansion today, and I am also the builder of this mansion, do you want to go in and sit with me?"

After a brief introduction, Lin nodded and replied: "Lin Chong, a layman." ”

The old man smiled, undeniable, and stepped forward, Lin Chong was really worried that he would slip, and then he whimpered, "squeak", the door was slowly pushed open by Du Rukong, he waved at Lin Chong, although Lin Chong felt that something was wrong, but a mortal, he couldn't help him.

Following Du Rukong's footsteps, Lin Chong also walked in slowly.

Everything inside Lin Zhong thought it would be better, but it seemed to be the same as the outside, there was a dilapidated scene everywhere, and on his left hand side were the houses he had just seen from a distance, low and damp, and insects could be seen crawling through.

After Du Rukong entered, he only walked a few steps, then closed his eyes, his face was a little aftertaste and reluctance, Lin Zhong looked strange, but he didn't want to bother, after all, it had nothing to do with him.

But everything in this mansion still didn't look right, Lin Chong looked around with some vigilance, and it seemed that everything was normal.

The wind blew at some point, and it was cold, and Lin Zhong couldn't help but shiver. However, Du Rukong did not move, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
