Chapter 178 Time is short
The ice and snow melted, the mountain mist was as clean as washing, and the breeze in the late winter still liked to ginseng and a little cold. With the destruction of Liujiazhuang, the pattern of Liaocheng has changed drastically. Although all this arose because of Mu Xiao, on the second day of Liujiazhuang's destruction, he left Liaocheng and went to Taixu Gate. Even He who came from the border city did not meet again in three years.
Lin Zhainai He Sannian was a little angry. He put down the teacup in his hand and shook his sleeves. He said in dissatisfaction: "This guy stabbed a big hole and actually ran back to Taixu Sect and asked us to stay and wipe our butts. It's simply outrageous."
That being said, I was actually happy. Eliminating Liujiazhuang was simply helping him remove a potential enemy.
Lin Chaoyang, who was sitting opposite, smiled slightly, his face still looked ugly, his sick look was very worrying, his white lips moved, and it seemed a little difficult to speak, and his eyes were full of helplessness when he looked at He Sannian.
He put his sleeves together in his dantian, paused his head and said, "Mu Xiao left in a hurry, so he naturally makes sense. Brother He, don't be angry."
"Brother Lin is right, maybe I'm blamed. When I learned that Mo Qian had colluded with the Tongyou Tie family and did not take action to deal with that matter, that guy was always worried!" He Sannian said with his tone significantly eased a lot.
Lin Chaoyang coughed a few times, moved the chair and leaned forward, squinted at He Sannian and said, "Hey, Brother He is so serious, Mu Xiao is not that kind of person. I'm afraid something big will happen when I return to Taixu Sect this time."
When He Sannian heard this, he also leaned forward. The distance between the two made people seem to be conspiring for something.
"A big thing? Didn't a big thing happen just a few days ago?" He Sannian asked in confusion.
Lin Chaoyang leaned back, pulled his robe with his skinny hands and gently lowered it to both sides, and said mysteriously: "Zhi Ling was imprisoned in the Taixu Dungeon for several months. After hearing that he was not as strong as before, and even showed signs of decline in his body. I am afraid that time will be short."
"How could it be?" He Sannian was surprised.
"Before being captured, Ji Ling hid in my Liaocheng for a while. She was severely injured by Wei Long and was saved by Mu Xiao. However, the injuries on her body still did not fully recover. In addition, she was imprisoned by Wei Long for several months." Lin Chaoyang finished speaking and sighed.
He Sannian stood up at this time, stretched his hands forward and said, "It's not too early, Liaocheng is basically stable, so the rest will be left to Brother Lin."
Lin Chaoyang was about to stand up and return the gift, but was stopped by He Sannian: "Brother Lin is ill and does not need to be detained. As the same goes for the words, Liaocheng border towns are close to Youlong, and they will inevitably take care of each other in the future."
Lin Chaoyang also knew that the Youlong soldiers stationed in Tongyou were eyeing the border city, and He Sannian did not dare to leave for too long. Also, if the border city was captured by the Youlong army, the second city that would suffer would definitely be Liaocheng.
"Brother, please rest assured. In a while, the Liaocheng City Moat soldiers will definitely station in the border city." Lin Chaoyang said firmly.
He Sannian clasped his fists hard, turned around and walked out the door, and the tea on the table was still emitting rays of heat.
This time, He Sannian secretly led his troops into Liaocheng and secretly eliminated the Liu family's forces. First, prevent accidents when Mu Xiao killed Liujiazhuang, and second, please Lin Chaoyang so that he could speak up to second the city-protected troops from him.
Since the Tongyou Bian Camp changed its generals, not only has the number of soldiers increased, but its strength seemed to be stronger than Tie Yi at that time. The strength of the border soldiers has not increased over the years, and the number of people has been much smaller than in previous years. Now, only by seeking help from Liaocheng can we alleviate our current disadvantages against Tongyou. Although there is no war, we still have momentum.
He Sannian walked out of the door and breathed a sigh of relief, strode outside the Lin house.
Lin Chaoyang in the room fell into deep thought. At this time, a figure suddenly flashed at the door. An old man was walking inside, and a strong smell of wine came with the wind.
For some reason, Lin Chaoyang felt refreshed in an instant, and he had not lived so easily for a long time.
"Expert!"
Lin Chaoyang, who had always been calm in his actions, stood up suddenly from the chair in panic and looked at the sloppy old man in front of him.
The old man's feet were as silent as ghosts. The outer wall of the gourd in his hand was smooth and reflected, and his hair was slightly shattered. His face was full of wrinkles and trembled, then he put it in the corner of his eyes, revealing a drunken smile: "Have you improved your health in the Lin family?"
The old man stroked his big hands and smiled meaningfully. Finally, his arm was gently raised and the open door closed.
Lin Chaoyang knelt in surprise and raised his hands: "Senior!"
"Don't panic, it's just that there are things that others should not watch." As the sloppy old man spoke, a halo lingered in his body, and his fairy aura was revealed in front of Lin Chaoyang.
The palms were loosened forward, and the gourd floated over Lin Chaoyang's head and rotated slowly. A ray of rays of light fell, and the fragrance of wine in the house overflowed into the hearts.
The old man whispered in a low voice, not knowing what the spell was. Lin Chaoyang knelt on the ground and did not dare to act rashly. At this time, he felt something in his body was stirring, like a strange force tearing it up.
"Um"
As the pain of tearing gradually came, Lin Chaoyang moaned. When he looked up at the old man, he was grabbing his head with a big hand.
With the five fingers printed on the Tianling Cover, Lin Chaoyang felt a force spreading along his head to every inch of his skin.
"Senior, what are you going to do?"
Lin Chaoyang shouted in panic, but at this time he was unable to move as if he was fixed, and the tearing pain came from all over his body.
"A monster, don't you surrender?" The sloppy old man's voice was deep, as if it was ringing in Lin Chaoyang's mind.
Lin Chaoyang was covered in sweat, and beads of sweat on his face fell to the ground. Fear and despair coexisted, but he had no strength to resist.
A shrill scream came from behind, and Lin Chaoyang shivered even more. At this time, a blank look was filled with his eyes, and a phantom appeared in front of him out of thin air. The phantom looked like a dry tree trunk, but a human face grew. At this time, it was wrapped in the light of the old man, as if trapped.
Despite this, Lin Chaoyang was still frightened and leaned back.
The shadowy tree trunk made a strange sound, and the eyes were staring at the old man, full of resentment.
Buzz
The sloppy old man stretched out his other hand, and a black vortex was generated from the hole, sucking the phantom into it, screaming far away, and everything returned to peace.
"Then, what is that?" Lin Chaoyang had lived for so long and had never seen such a strange scene. He was extremely scared. The old man in front of him made him very afraid and his body kept moving backwards.
"No prospect!"
The old man put away the gourd and raised his hand to cover it with a plug, looking at Lin Chaoyang with contempt.
Lin Chaoyang's eyes were always staring at his feet, and storm waves appeared in his heart.
"Senior, oh no, great immortal, what was that just now?"
Lin Chaoyang's previous aura disappeared. At this time, he struggled to struggle from the ground, his feet became weak and made him stagger a few steps, holding the chair and looking at the old man.
The old man shook the gourd in his hand and sat in the void. It was good, he sat in the void, his butt was about two feet above the ground, and his tattered clothes were hanging leisurely.
"It is just a tree demon. I have been looking for it for several months, but I didn't expect it to become so strong." The old man said lightly.
When Lin Chaoyang heard the hair stand upright, he pointed at the old man's gourd with a trembling finger, and asked in a low voice: "You mean this tree demon..."
"Yes, this monster has probably been in your mansion for some time, just absorbing the essence of your body. You can turn into a human form to a certain extent. You have saved your life and you must not reveal what happened today." The old man stood up and reminded him.
Lin Chaoyang couldn't say a word at this time.
"Tell Mu Xiao that he must go to Wanjianshan!" As soon as the old man finished speaking, his figure disappeared, as suddenly as he appeared.
When the door opened again, Lin Hai rushed in anxiously, holding Lin Chaoyang, who was full of panic, said: "Uncle, what's wrong? Why can't the door be opened just now?"
Before Lin Chaoyang could recover, he sat down on the chair with Lin Hai's support, and his pale face was still sweating.
Lin Hai frowned and did not dare to say anything more. He picked up the warm tea and handed it to Lin Chaoyang and said, "Uncle, drink a little water first."
Since Lin Hai returned from the pharmacy last time, he has become sensible and obedient. Now he is Lin Chaoyang's powerful general. He originally came to report something, but he couldn't open the door at the door for a long time. As soon as he came in, he saw his uncle's face full of horror. Lin Hai was completely puzzled.
He twitched his nose and sniffed around, walked around the house and carefully looked at every corner. Lin Hai seemed a little disappointed, and returned to Lin Chaoyang and leaned down and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, have you honestly explained whether you have drunk alcohol? There is a mellow smell of alcohol in the house."
Lin Chaoyang didn't say anything and handed Lin Hai half a cup of tea left in his hand.
Lin Hai put the tea under his nose and smelled it again and again. It was still just the smell of tea. He scratched his head and pulled his ears and muttered: "It's strange, it obviously smells of wine."
"Hai'er, what did you hear just now?"
Lin Chaoyang's voice suddenly sounded, which scared Lin Hai, who was thinking,: "I'm scared to death, uncle, what did you say just now?"
"I'll ask you what's wrong?" Lin Chaoyang patted his clothes, his expression obviously improved a lot at this moment.
Dear
Putting down the teacup in his hand, Lin Hai said with a serious look: "The situation outside is basically stable. The deacons in all temples are clamoring to see you, but Daddy has made excuses."
"Oh!" Lin Chaoyang was stunned and still thought of the scene just now.
Lin Hai looked at him and said again: "Uncle, are you okay? Have you been drinking today?"
"What?"
"I said, are you drinking? You have to be careful if you are in good health."
After Lin Hai finished speaking, he realized that Lin Chaoyang's complexion seemed to have improved a lot at this time, and his face was rosy and there was no trace of pathology: "But uncle, his complexion has improved a lot today."
Lin Chaoyang sighed and stood up, patted Lin Hai and said, "Hai'er, uncle is fine, don't worry." He paused his head and thought for a while and continued, "You go to Taixu Sect and tell Mu Xiao that he must go to Wanjian Mountain within half a month."
"Okay, I haven't seen him for several months. Can I stay in Taixu Sect for a few more days?" Lin Hai heard that he was going to find Mu Xiao, and he agreed readily without thinking.
Lin Chaoyang's face became serious and pretended to be angry and said, "I'm not fooling around, bring the words back quickly and go to the city defense camp in a few days."
"Ah?" Lin Hai was about to ask why, but when he saw Lin Chaoyang's serious expression, he could only turn around and leave reluctantly.
