After meeting Han Lingyue, Chen Lin suddenly had the urge to leave Guyuan City immediately.
When he used the PL-4 to bomb Yu Yuehai, he also covered the patriarchs of the five major families!
It would be fine if they were all killed in the explosion, but I was afraid that some of the survivors would spread the news and seek revenge on him.
Even if he didn't blow up those people, Yu Yuehai would still have refined them into pills, but human hearts are unpredictable. Who would reason with a small casual cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training
What Chen Lin was more worried about was that Yu Yuehai was still alive. If the other party found him through some clues, they would eat him alive!
So I feel like a frightened bird.
But then he thought, Han Lingyue didn't know him, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
There are many cultivators coming out of Kaiyuan City. If he leaves and goes somewhere else, he might encounter stronger ones, or even meet someone who knows him. It is better for him to stay here.
Moreover, the trade fair was coming up soon, and he needed to buy a batch of materials to condense the nameless sword energy and deal with the melanin bugs.
After careful consideration, Chen Lin felt that the problem was not serious and returned to Guyuan City.
Changing back into the image of a middle-aged man, he returned to the inn and found Bai Yunyue sitting in the lobby with an anxious look on his face.
"Ah, Fellow Daoist Lin, you're finally back!"
Seeing Chen Lin, Bai Yunyue was obviously relieved and immediately came forward to greet him.
"What do you want to talk to me about, Mr. Bai?"
Chen Lin asked in surprise when he saw this.
"Oh, it's like this, my father's injuries have recovered a little, and he wants to meet Fellow Daoist Lin. I have been waiting here for an hour."
"You've recovered from your injuries? Congratulations, Brother Bai. But does your father want to talk to me about anything?"
Chen Lin really didn't expect that the other party's father's injury would improve so quickly. It seems that the red-veined ginseng is effective.
But as far as he knew, the main function of this elixir did not seem to be to heal wounds, which made him a little confused.
Bai Yunyue didn't know what Chen Lin was thinking, so he said with gratitude, "My father heard that it was Daoist Lin who sold the red-veined ginseng to me at a low price, so he wanted to thank Daoist Lin in person, and asked me to invite Daoist Lin over no matter what, saying that we have something to discuss."
Chen Lin was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"Well, since the elder has invited me, I will obey your orders!"
He was thinking about how to buy the recipe for the Yang Shen Pill, so he naturally would not refuse such an opportunity.
When Bai Yunyue arrived at the Bai Mansion, it was already getting dark.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Bai Lingshan, walking back and forth boredly beside the small flower bed next to the yard.
"Hello, Master Lin!"
When she saw Chen Lin, Bai Lingshan's eyes suddenly lit up.
But after saying hello, her face turned red, and she ran away with her head down.
Chen Lin was confused and wondered what was wrong with this girl. She was so nervous.
Bai Yunyue also looked at his sister's back speechlessly, then made a gesture of invitation to Chen Lin and said, "Fellow Daoist Lin, my father has not yet recovered from his injuries and needs to stay in bed. He cannot come to greet you in person. Please follow me."
Chen Lin immediately replied politely: "How dare I trouble you, elder? Just lead the way, Brother Bai."
Then, Chen Lin followed Bai Yunyue through the front yard and came to the second main house.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the hall, he saw several women standing on one side and bowing to him together.
Then, one of the women, who was a little older but still charming, came forward.
"This must be Fellow Daoist Lin, thank you for your generosity in saving my husband. I am very grateful."
Chen Lin waved his hand.
"That's fine, fellow Daoist, you don't have to be polite. Your son and I have some affinity, and it's all a fair deal, so there's no need to thank me."
The other party is also a cultivator, although he is only at the Qi training level, but he can also be called a fellow Taoist.
After exchanging some greetings, the women left together.
Under Bai Yunyue's guidance, Chen Lin was brought into the room, and then he saw a middle-aged man sitting on the bed.
Just one glance and Chen Lin's face changed drastically.
Not only was this man extremely skinny, but there was also a ball of black air swirling between his forehead, his eyes were lifeless, and he exuded an extremely evil aura!
This is not an injury at all, it's clearly being possessed by evil spirits.
Seeing Chen Lin coming in, Bai Yunyue's father said with all his strength: "Master Lin, please take a seat."
Bai Yunyue hurriedly took a chair.
Chen Lin did not sit down, but came to the bed, stared at it for a while, and asked in surprise: "How did you do this, fellow Taoist? Did you encounter some strange thing?"
To be honest, Chen Lin strongly suspected that the other party also ran away from Kaiyuan City. This state was too similar to that of the cultivator whose energy was sucked away by the red line, and even more exaggerated.
"weird?"
Bai Yunyue's father was stunned, then smiled bitterly and said, "No, I rarely leave Guyuan City, so how could I possibly encounter the legendary weirdness? This situation is all thanks to the Li family!"
"Could it be the Li family of Li Ziqing that we met in Huangtu Town?"
Chen Lin understood, it seemed he was overthinking it.
Bai Yunyue's father nodded and said, "Yes, Li Ziqing's uncle Li Chongshan's cultivation method is more sinister and he is good at controlling evil spirits. I was plotted against by this guy!"
Chen Lin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
There was no point in asking, he couldn't solve it. He had never come into contact with anything like evil spirits, let alone deal with them.
The scene became somewhat quiet.
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside, and it turned out to be a maid coming in to serve tea.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, please have some tea. This is the spiritual tea picked in Broken Dreams Mountain. It tastes very good."
Bai Yunyue's father pointed at the teacup and spoke with a smile.
Chen Lin waved his hand, stood up and said, "Don't bother me. I see that you are still very weak. If there is nothing else, I won't disturb you to rest."
In such an unfamiliar environment, he would not even drink magical tea or magical pills.
You must always be on guard against others.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, are you interested in the recipe for the Yang Shen Pill?"
A voice sounded behind me.
Chen Lin, who had just stood up, slowly sat down again.
He is not secretive.
"I am indeed somewhat interested, but I am only interested in alchemy. Even if I get the recipe, I may not be able to make it. And I heard from your son that the recipe passed down in your family is an ancient one?"
Bai Yunyue's father smiled slightly and said, "Although it is an ancient recipe, it has been improved by my father, and my father has also refined this pill. The effect of nourishing spiritual power is amazing, otherwise it would not be coveted by so many people."
Chen Lin's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Most of the ingredients in the ancient recipes have been lost and are of little value.
If it had been improved and there were successful examples, the value of the recipe would immediately increase, and he would naturally be very tempted.
However, this is somewhat different from what Bai Yunyue said. It seems that Bai Yunyue was not telling the truth at that time.
Thinking of this, Chen Lin did not beat around the bush and said bluntly: "Since Fellow Daoist Bai has told the truth, do you want to make a deal with me? What does Fellow Daoist want?"
"Friend Lin is quite straightforward!"
Bai Yunyue's father praised him, then looked Chen Lin up and down, especially at his disguised face, before he slowly asked, "Is Fellow Daoist Lin married?"
Chen Lin twitched his lips and shook his head, "No."
"Then what do you think of my daughter Lingshan?"
Bai Yunyue's father finally revealed his purpose.
