Chapter 32 Wolong Island

"Xiao Ke Luo Xiaoyao has met Master Lin." The next morning, Luo Xiaoyao saluted Lin Yi with Shang You's introduction.

Lin Yi was not surprised that Luo Xiaoyao was known as the leader of the hall. He also expected that Shang You would express his identity to the classmate, but was very surprised by Luo Xiaoyao's cultivation.

Lin Yi is nearly forty years old, has grown up and has practiced physical martial arts. He has entered the Mingqiao Valley. He can see Luo Xiaoyao's skills, but he is very surprised. He thought, where is Luo and Shang's master sect? Why are each more powerful than the other?

As he thought about it, Lin Yi smiled and said, "Brother Luo is young and has such cultivation. It is really rare. Lin asked Brother Shang about where he came from several times, but he didn't say it. Haha... I wonder if Brother Luo can report it?"

Luo and Shang also guessed that Mo Bushan would definitely offer his sword to the leader of the Jade Alliance. After some conspiracy, he wanted to enter the Xingdao Alliance and wait for an opportunity to get the Water Dragon Sound back.

When Luo Xiaoyao heard Lin Yi's questioning, he answered the question malice: "Lord Lin praised it. Fortunately, the teacher urged him to be strict, and Xiaoke had just accomplished it. This time he wanted to find a place to leave the mountain. He heard that Junior Brother Shang followed Lord Lin, and Xiaoke also asked Lord Lin to provide advice." However, he had the intention of joining Lin Yi.

"Junior brother?" Lin Yi said suspiciously.

Shang You hurriedly said: "The school teacher stipulates that among the peers, the number of seniors is ranked according to the order of admission. Although Shang You is five or six years older than Senior Brother Luo, he is only five or six years older than Senior Brother Luo to study, so Senior Brother Luo is the older."

There are indeed such rules in the world. In addition, Lin Yi trusts Shangyou very much. Now, a person with the great success of Guizhen Realm has appeared out of thin air to join him. He was very happy. Although Luo Xiaoyao had never left the school, he didn't mind. He laughed loudly when he heard this: "Brother Luo looks at Lin. Since he is a fellow disciple of Brother Shang, he wants to join the alliance, Lin is naturally welcomed, haha... Brother Shang has told Brother Luo about the situation in the alliance?"

Shangyou nodded.

"Okay, I see Brother Luo and Brother Shang's skills are more than enough to be a guardian of Xiaofeng Hall. If you build a contribution in the future, it is only a matter of time for the master of the hall and the position of worship, and the leader of the alliance is right..."

He seemed to be scruples and paused: "Let's talk about it when he returns to Jiangling Mansion."

From the waterway of Zhouzhuang Dukou, Xiazhou, we went straight to Jiangling Prefecture. The water was abundant and the wind was smooth, and the speed was not slower than that of a horse on land. When it was about to pass noon, we also arrived at Jiangling Prefecture.

After entering the city, he came to a fishing market, but saw that the road surface in the fishing market was bumpy and the fishy smell was pungent. The city was crowded with few people. I thought that the transaction had passed, Lin Yi led the two to the door of a shop. A man with a rolled sleeve and exposed his arms inside quickly put down his sleeves and greeted him: "See Master Lin."

"Is Xu Laosan here?"

"The third brother seems to have gone to Lin Dahu's house..."

Lin Yi pondered for a moment: "If he comes back... call him to the hall to meet the master of the hall."

After saying that, he turned around and took Luo, Shang and the others left the city, walked nearly twenty miles toward the west direction of the city, and came to a village courtyard. The hall of the atrium of the courtyard was very large, with landscape calligraphy and paintings hanging in the middle of the north wall. There were a crossing chair in front of the table below. There were three rows of crossing chairs on the east and west sides, three feet apart, and four were placed in each row. The crossing chairs separated by a coffee table were thought to be the conference hall.

Lin Yi came to the center of the seat and sat down, signaling Luo and Shang to take their seats, and smiled and said, "The house here is the entrance of my Xiaofeng Hall. Return. Xia Erzhou Branch usually comes to discuss matters as usual at the end of every month. Three days later, the leader’s birthday party will probably come to the next day of the day. As for Brother Luo’s position, just like Brother Shang, he is the guardian of this hall. How about it?"

Luo Xiaoyao would not care about the so-called master and guardian position. The purpose of this time was just to get into the alliance and get the water dragon yin back. Hearing this, he said, "But it is based on the arrangement of Master Lin."

"Haha... OK, Brother Shang, please take the Protector Luo to replace the luggage."

"As for the order." Shangyou stood up and replied, leading Luo Xiaoyao to the wing room east of the backyard.

"Senior Brother, wait first, I'll go to the front yard to get some clothes..." After a while, he took a set of green robe and handed it to Luo Xiaoyao, and whispered: "This house is a place for ordinary affairs in the hall. Lord Lin's family is in the city. The main house in the back yard is just a place where Lord Lin will rest occasionally. The wing opposite is my house, and this room will be where Brother Xiaoyao will stay in the future."

"Hehe, this guardian is like a guardian... The clothes in this hall are a bit particular. When discussing matters, everyone must change into clothes that match their identity in the hall."

"The master of the hall is brown, the guardian is blue, the ordinary leader is black, and the ordinary gang members are gray. I heard that this rule was set by the leader so that he could see his identity in the alliance meeting at a glance. Like a court official, this blue dress is considered the official uniform of the second-rank official in the court in the alliance meeting, haha..."

Luo Xiaoyao couldn't help laughing when he heard this. The two changed their clothes and came to the atrium conference hall. There was a man in black sitting in the hall, but Lin Yi was not seen. The man saw Shang You and Luo Xiaoyao come in, and quickly stood up and saluted: "I have seen Shang Guardian... my subordinate Xu San, I don't know what this Guardian is called?"

Xu San saw Luo Xiaoyao wearing Qingyi, who marked the identity of the Dharma Protector, but he didn't recognize him. He was surprised and hurried to introduce himself.

Before Luo Xiaoyao answered, he heard Lin Yi coming from behind him with a smile and replied: "Xu Laosan, this is the Luo brother of this hall master, and the guardian of Luo."

"Xu San has seen Luo's Protector."

Luo Xiaoyao replied, "Brother Xu, don't be polite."

Lin Yi changed into brown clothes at some point, and still carried the long box with a treasure knife in advance. He came to the main seat and sat down on the coffee table. He said to Xu San: "Lao San, what do you say about Lin Da Husband?"

Xu Sanyi looked angry: "This old man Lin... Alas, I heard from the fishing market guarantor that this big Lin sold the ambergris to the ancient master of Xingyu Hall. If the master had not ordered the owner to indicate his identity, this ambergris..."

"Oh? This ancient man, I think he used some fraudulent method... However, this hall master has found a treasure knife this time, so I will give him the ambergris to him."

It turned out that a wealthy man from Lin's surname got a hundred-year-old ambergris from somewhere. Lin Yi wanted to ask for it as a gift to the leader of the alliance. Later, he heard that a general in Yinzhou had a treasure knife in his hand, so Lin Yi made preparations. While instructing Xu San to go to Lin's large man to buy it, he took Shangyou to Yinzhou to grab the knife.

Xu San was happy when he heard this and looked at the long box on the coffee table: "Congratulations to the Lord of the Hall, congratulations to the Lord of the Hall."

"Haha... Third brother, two days will be the day of the leader's birthday party. You notify the other deacons and ask the brothers below to be more energetic and don't let Xiaofengtang down."

"I know, and I will definitely not embarrass the master."

"The Xingdao League has been established for three years. This year, it is the first time that the ancient man wanted to compete for this position with ambergris, but he was also fantastic... Then he would see how he said the origin of ambergris, haha..."

Seeing Luo and Shang and the other two were puzzled, Lin Yi smiled: "To get a position of worship, you must first step into the realm of divine thoughts or clarity. The more dangerous the source of the treasures you obtained is, like the palace and the famous martial arts sect, the more you can prove the courage, talent and intelligence of the treasure hunter."

"The leader of the alliance announced the selection of offerings during this time of the crown banquet, with the intention of this, so as not to compete with the brothers in the alliance and cause harm to the harmony."

"Half a month ago, the master of this hall could not find a treasure. He wanted to give up the battle for the position of worship this year, but he happened to meet the party leader's birthday party, so he wanted to give it to the present to express his feelings. He did not want to use the merits of ambergris to fight for the position of worship. But that ancient man... Hehe, he is usually very greedy for wealth and loves to put on airs in each hall. I am afraid that this ambergris will be compiled from the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, haha..."

He turned to Xu San and asked, "Has that ancient man ever seen you? Does the Lin Da Hu know your identity?"

Xu San shook his head and said, "As the orders of the hall master, he asked the guarantor in the fishing market to go. He had never stated his identity or met the ancient hall master."

Lin Yi laughed at the sound of this: "Haha, there will be a good show at that time."

Three days later, Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You came to the conference hall. They saw about twenty people sitting in the hall, two middle-aged men dressed in brown, thinking that they were returning. Lin Yi, who was sitting in the hall, saw Luo Xiaoyao coming, and introduced to everyone: "This is the new Luo Guardian in this hall, and he is the same brother and brother of the same sect as Shang Guardian."

Everyone was surprised to see him young, but they did not dare to look down on him. They hurriedly bowed and introduced themselves one by one. After everyone saw the ceremony with Luo Xiaoyao, Lin Yi stood up and said, "Brothers, lift up their spirits and go to the main hall later. Don't lose your momentum."

After a little arrangement, he led everyone out of the house and walked west for more than twenty miles to a big lake. Five or six small boats were waiting by the lake. Lin Yi smiled and said, "Luo Guardian, this main hall is on the "Wolong Island" ten miles in the lake. If it is not the birthday party of the leader, people who are not the hall master cannot go up."

Luo Xiaoyao felt a sudden slap in his heart when he heard this. He did not expect that the main hall of this Taoist alliance would be on the island in the lake. He looked at Shang You, but when he saw Shang You shook his head slightly, he wanted to let him rest assured.

Luo Xiaoyao is a land duck. He thought that even if he had the chance to get the Dragon Sound of Water later, he might not be able to escape. Looking at the rippling blue waves, he smiled bitterly in his heart.

About an incense hour, several ships leaned against a green island. An old man in charge of the house came up and bowed to Lin Yi and others, "I have seen three hall masters. Xiaofeng Hall is the first to come. I am really interested. Please invite me."

"I'm sorry to Deacon Yan welcomes you, thank you." Lin Yi bowed his hand and turned to Xu San and others and said, "Please carry the gift up and follow."

He talked and laughed with Deacon Yan and entered the island together. Everyone walked on the bluestone path and walked for a cup of tea. But he saw a huge manor not far away. The white walls and green willows were shaded in the courtyard wall. The branches were crossing the walls, and the wind was drifting. Two rows of men in uniform stood at the entrance of the courtyard. Seeing Lin Yi and others coming, they all bowed their hands. Deacon Yan said to Lin Yi: "I am still going to the shore entrance to welcome the people of Xingyutang. Everyone, please go to the village to advance, He Da, lead the way."

Then a man came forward and said, "Please follow me."

The corridors in the courtyard are winding, surrounded by flowers and beautiful flowers, pavilions and pavilions are built according to the terrain and upwards. When we arrived at a courtyard with flat terrain, He Da said to Lin Yi: "The three hall masters can send gifts to the courtyard, and someone will receive them."

He turned around and said to Luo Xiaoyao and others: "The rest of you will follow me to the meeting hall."

This arrangement was because of the status level. Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You looked at each other and greeted Lin Yi. Follow He Da to the east. After passing through a small bamboo forest, he saw a pavilion with ear rooms on both sides of the left and right sides, with a plaque with three words "Conference Hall" hanging in the middle. Several servants and maids were walking around in front of the ear room, as if preparing food. General He led everyone into the hall and said goodbye.

I saw that the hall was nearly ten feet wide and more than five feet deep, like a palace. There was a red blanket in the middle, with a table that was more than three feet high and five feet long in the middle, and two tables on both sides were arranged side by side.

There were several rows of low tables placed on the east and west sides of the hall, with three in the front row and six in the back rows, each of which was arranged side by side, and there were fruits and vegetables on the tables. A man in black, nearly 40 years old, came over and bowed to everyone: "The front row is the position of the masters of each hall, and the order is the guardian, and the rest are seated at will. The seats in the east are Xiaofeng Hall and Xingyu Hall to the west are not mentioned." However, Fengming Hall was not mentioned.

Luo Xiaoyao and Shang You looked at each other and came to the embroidery pedestal in the second row of the east to sit down next to each other. Shang You frowned and said softly: "Senior brother, slowly draw it."

There were many people at this time, and Shangyou could only speak to remind him. Luo Xiaoyao nodded, but Xu San behind him said: "Two guardians, this banquet should start in the afternoon. The island manor scenery is beautiful, so why not go out and have a look..."

Shang You shook his head and said, "The level of the alliance is very strict, so people are not allowed to walk around at will."

Xu San whispered, "If I could find a position in the headquarters...ah." He seemed to feel that his thoughts could not be realized, so he sighed.

A man in green who was sitting across the aisle from Shangyou smiled and said, "Why should Deacon Xu sigh? If Lord Lin got the position of worship, wouldn't Deacon Xu get the title of entourage? Wouldn't Deacon Xu get the title of entourage?"

Xu San's eyes lit up when he heard this. He must have had this idea in his heart. He laughed and said, "Yes, I hope that as Zhang Guardian said, I can live in this lake and island surrounded by mountains..."

A man in black smiled and said, "My third brother, did my wife give birth to a young man last year, and she became greedy and afraid of death, haha..." The others all laughed lightly when they heard this.

"The lake island surrounded by mountains?" Luo Xiaoyao suddenly felt something. He remembered that he had heard Chu Nanfeng mention the assertion that Master Jue "A thousand mountains have fairy shadows in one lake". He instantly felt that his master's wife Ma Xilan might be on the island of the lake, not in the mountains where the master guessed that there was a lake.

He was shocked and said to Shang You: "My junior brother Shang has been to Jingzhou for more than a year. Have you ever heard of... Qianshan Lake, Qiandao Lake or a large lake with many islands?"

Shang You was stunned when he heard this and thought for a moment: "There are many lakes in Jingchu. If there are many islands, there are many lakes. I have never heard of Qianshan Lake and Qiandao Lake."

The Zhang guardian continued, "If Luo guardians say there are so many lakes and islands, there are also many in the southern Tang Dynasty. I wonder what other characteristics of the islands mentioned by Luo guardians?"

Luo Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, and repeatedly muttered in his heart: There is a fairy shadow in a lake in thousands of mountains and lakes. After a while, he suddenly looked up and asked, "Has there ever been a lake name or island name with the word "xian"?"

The guardian Zhang thought for a little while and said with a smile: "If you say there are many lakes and islands with the word "xian" in the rivers and lakes, but it is famous... There is a lake called Xiannv Lake near Yuanzhou, the hometown of Zhang."

"Fairy Lake?" Luo Xiaoyao's heart moved and asked hurriedly: "Where is this Fairy Lake in Yuanzhou?"

"It's more than a hundred miles east of Yuanzhou, but I don't know if it's the lake island that Luo Guardian is looking for..."

"Thank you, Protector Zhang, for your advice." Luo Xiaoyao bowed and thanked him, thinking that he would be able to find Shuilongling back. After inquiring about Ming Wu's whereabouts, he went to Fairy Lake to check.

The guardian was about to return the ceremony, but only heard a burst of laughter at the door. Then more than twenty people walked in. The six leaders were all dressed in brown clothes, which were the two masters of Xingdao League Xiaofeng and Xingyu. The one who claimed to be Mo Er was among them. The other nearly twenty were the guardians and leaders of Xingyu Hall.

Luo Xiaoyao sat in the second row in the east, heading north. Lin Yi had not yet taken the seat in front. Mo Bushan naturally saw Luo Xiaoyao. His expression changed and he couldn't help but stop. Lin Yi, who was walking side by side, was stunned when he saw him suddenly stop. He looked at Mo Bushan looking at Luo Xiaoyao, but his face was shocked and suspicious. He thought he was jealous and he had disturbed another master. He smiled proudly: "How is it? Master Mo also saw that Lin's newly recruited Dharma protector is extraordinary? Haha, come, come, Lin introduces Master Mo, and introduces..."

After robbing the Water Dragon Yin, Mo Bushan realized that Luo Xiaoyao's skills seemed to be more than the realm of Returning to the True Realm. He felt quite afraid in his heart. He thought that a young man had reached the realm of divine thought and had a sword in his body. The master behind him might not be simple. At this time, many experts in the martial arts world were hidden in famous mountains and rivers, and there was no way to guess. He secretly warned himself to be more careful in the future, but he did not expect to meet at the Xingdao League headquarters today.

After hearing that it was Lin Yi's new guardian, Mo Bushan calmed down a little and thought that the sword had been sent to the leader of the alliance. If there was any trouble, the leader would solve it. When he heard Lin Yi's words, he seemed to be unaware of the inside story, so he smiled and said, "Congratulations to Master Lin. Since ancient times, heroes have been young. Okay, okay, Mo will know him."

Before he could speak in front of Luo Xiaoyao, he saw Luo Xiaoyao smiling, and had already stood up and bowed to greet him: "Luo Xiaoyao has seen Master Mo Er."

"Good to know, lucky to know." Mo Bushan smiled embarrassedly and then turned around and sat in the middle of the front row opposite.

Lin Yi was stunned and said to Luo Xiaoyao: "The Protector Luo knew Master Mo? Mo Er?"

Luo Xiaoyao smiled: "When I was in Xiazhou, I met this Lord Mo and drank a jar of wine together. At that time, Lord Mo called himself Mo Er. My subordinate was afraid that Master Mo, who had the ability to "fly and escape from the earth" would forget, so he called him Mo Er... Remind."

The words were naturally ridiculed by Mo Er for escaping into the water. The reason why Luo Xiaoyao retorted was not because he could speak out, but because he wanted to test Mo Bushan's reaction.

Before coming to this main hall, he also had some conspiracy in his mind. At this time, he was considered a member of the Taoist alliance. If Mo Bushan was angry and embarrassed, then he would tell the truth about the Water Dragon Yin being taken away by Mo Bushan's greed, would Lin Yiding not be able to watch.

Mo Bushan, who was more than a meter away, also heard these sarcastic words, but raised his eyes to the door, as if he had not heard of them.

Lin Yi was stunned again when he heard this, thinking that Mo Bushan was the owner of the Xiazhou Hall of Xingyu Hall. It was possible to meet Luo Xiaoyao. But when Luo Xiaoyao said sarcastic tone, Mo Bushan, who usually values ​​face, turned a deaf ear. He guessed that there might be some celebrating between the two, but he was not convenient to ask in detail at this time.

He has a very short-lived personality. After taking his seat, he turned to Luo Xiaoyao and whispered to him: "If this guy bullies Luo's Protector, just let's do it. Lin will go to him to reason after this."

Luo Xiaoyao was grateful when he saw his sincere expression: "Thank you for your concern, I will know how to cook."

Lin Yi became more confident in his thoughts when he heard this. Looking at Mo Bushan on the opposite side, he seemed to be smiling.

The hall masters of this Taoist Alliance were all independent bandits and thieves. When the Jade Alliance leader who appeared suddenly was not subdued by the Jade Alliance leader, there were many conflicts with each other. No one knew the details of the Jade Alliance leader, and no one knew how long this Taoist alliance would last, so everyone secretly guarded each other and took the blame to each other. Lin Yi took great care of Shang You, a fellow villager, and was also biased towards Luo Xiaoyao. In addition, Mo Bushan's expression seemed to be inappropriate, so he wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Mo Bushan.

All of them are good at listening to Luo Xiaoyao's sarcastic words. Although he had never heard of it, he thought in his heart. He focused on practicing light skills and water. He used to escape when he could not fight with others. His state of mind was originally greedy for life and fear of death, so he naturally would not forget his life and see profits. He tried to gain a position of worship, which was also to get more salary and do less risky things.

I know nothing about the Jade Alliance Leader and Lin Yi. I know that the Jade Alliance Leader is just using his own group. If Luo Xiaoyao's master sect is a tough guy, I may not have a good ending at that time. When I saw Lin Yi smiling thornyly, he felt regretful of snatching the sword. But I thought that the sword had been given to the Jade Alliance Leader. If Lin Yi knew the truth, he would not dare to attack him. Thinking of this, he would have been brave enough to laugh with his subordinates.
