The second day.
Sunny day.
The yellow crane is gone and never returns, and the white clouds remain empty for thousands of years.
Perhaps because of the extremely high altitude, the air in Baiyun City is excellent, with a PM2.5 index of 0.
Lin Beichen slept until noon, then opened his eyes in a daze, and washed up under the service of two beautiful maids, Qianqian and Qianqian, as usual.
In the yard, junior uncle Yin Shan has prepared breakfast, which are all specialties of Baiyun City.
There are cloud pigeon soup, steamed ear cake, ice tea, white cloud hot noodles, golden rice porridge, donkey rolling, tree sparrows, oil cakes, white cloud fruit crisp candy, golden rice crisps...
Full of color and fragrance.
They were all made by my junior uncle himself.
For this reason, she was busy until midnight last night.
"tasty."
Lin Beichen was not polite, opened his belly and ate it all in one go.
"If you like it, I'll give it to you every day."
Young Master Yin Shan's eyes were bright, shining with the light of peach blossoms.
"That's so embarrassing."
Lin Beichen smiled shyly.
The young uncle said calmly: "If you feel embarrassed, my nephew, you can reciprocate and let my uncle taste your craftsmanship."
"Uh... I'm not very good at cooking."
Lin Beichen raised his middle finger and thought to himself: Why does it feel like my junior uncle wants to pick up on me
"You can feed it to me down there."
The junior uncle said with a smile.
Lin Beichen: "???"
What kind of talk is this.
Are the elders nowadays so direct
"I heard that there is a delicacy in Yunmeng City called Yunmeng Long Noodles, which is considered a local specialty." Junior Uncle Master added with bright eyes.
"Oh, okay, I'll try my best."
Lin Beichen raised his middle finger and rubbed his eyebrows.
"By the way, where are my master and the others?"
There was no sign of Old Man Ding inside or outside the yard, Lin Beichen asked curiously.
Junior uncle Yin Shan smiled and said: "Senior brother Ding went to see the city lord."
"Um?"
Lin Beichen was quite surprised.
Yin Shan explained with a smile: "Today at sunrise, the City Lord's Mansion invited disciples to come and invited Senior Brother Ding to be a guest. Sixth Brother came to accompany them. The two of them went to the City Lord's Mansion together to discuss the expulsion of outsiders. In addition, Senior Brother Ding also wants to investigate the disappearance of the old City Lord, and the relevant information is stored in the City Lord’s Mansion.”
Lin Beichen nodded thoughtfully.
I always feel that there is something wrong with this new city lord.
But Old Ding shouldn’t encounter any danger if he goes there, right
After all, I killed fourteen heavenly beings last night and showed enough strength. I don't believe that the city lord would be so stubborn that he would die.
"Are you worried about Brother Ding's safety?"
The young uncle's eyesight was still very keen, and he guessed Lin Beichen's thoughts right away.
Lin Beichen nodded.
The young uncle covered his mouth with a smile and said: "No need, your master is absolutely 100% safe in the city lord's mansion."
"Oh? Why is that?"
Lin Beichen's curiosity was aroused.
The junior uncle flipped his hair and said with bright eyes, "Because Junior Sister Lu Guanhai was once the suitor of Senior Brother Ding."
"Oh, Lao Ding has pursued others..."
After hearing this, Lin Beichen was immediately ignited with a burning fire of gossip, but suddenly felt that something was wrong.
etc
It seems that I just understood it wrong.
Did you get the subject or object wrong
"You mean... the city lord's wife once pursued my master?"
Lin Beichen reacted suddenly.
The young uncle covered his mouth and laughed like a goose.
After a long while, she nodded and said: "Yes, yes. Back then, Junior Sister Lu Guanhai was the most dazzling flower in Baiyun City. She came to Sword Immortal Academy more than once to show her favor to Senior Brother Ding, and she was so infatuated... Even if it was your master later. When I was expelled from Baiyun City, one of the few supplicants was Junior Sister Lu. She is deeply devoted to your master and will never hurt your master no matter what happens."
A big question mark appeared in Lin Beichen's mind.
(??_??)
Is there such a thing
Isn't it just Old Ding's dignity? What is the flower of Baiyun City doing
Is it because Lao Ding is ugly? Is it because he is old or because he doesn’t take a shower
Lin Beichen suddenly felt that this matter was a bit magical.
Because it seems that the mistress is also a super beauty, but she has always been in love with Lao Ding...
emmm.
Does Lao Ding have any unknown strengths
Or are there any special techniques
He thought about it seriously and suddenly felt that he should listen to his master more in the future.
After all, his old man's legacy must be passed on to him.
Then Lin Beichen suddenly thought that before he left, he promised his wife that he would take good care of his master and prevent him from rekindling his old love.
As a result, Lao Ding accidentally went to see his old lover alone.
This guy must have left quietly on purpose.
no.
I can't be sorry to my wife.
I have to go see Lao Ding quickly and ask him not to make any mistakes.
Lin Beichen instantly felt a strong sense of mission and responsibility.
at this time-
"By the way, I've already found out for you. This afternoon, Master Shen Xiaoyan of the Zhujian Pavilion will show up to meet friends at the Seven Star Jujian Restaurant in the city to complete a game that was unfinished three years ago. This is a person who can talk to him. If we have a chance to ask for the sword, we can go there in advance and find an opportunity to get close to Master Shen Xiaoyan."
The junior uncle said with a full smile.
Eh
By the way, I still want to ask for a sword.
I'm also very busy.
As for the master...
I still believe in Master's integrity and will not act recklessly behind Master's wife's back.
The sense of mission and responsibility in someone's heart disappeared instantly, and he decided that it was better to get the sword first.
"Listen to what you have to say, little uncle..."
Lin Beichen asked curiously: "Is it so difficult to meet Master Shen Xiaoyan? Do you have to go and reserve a seat in advance?"
"Not only is it difficult, it is simply harder than reaching the sky."
The young master's uncle smiled very beautifully, with bright eyes and white teeth. He explained patiently: "Generally, people who come to him come to him to ask for a sword. They want to ask him to make a sword. They want to ask him to make a sword, so they can't use force. But this Master Shen's temper is as great as his sword-making skills. He is unique and it is difficult for ordinary people to understand him. It is extremely difficult to get him to make swords. The only way is to strike up a conversation with him and arouse his interest. , only with his approval can we have a certain chance of letting him make a sword."
"So arrogant?"
Lin Beichen said: "Let's go and have a look. I don't believe in this evil."
After packing up, Lin Beichen took two young maids and set off under the guidance of his junior uncle.
Baiyun City looked much brighter during the day.
But there were few people on the streets.
The shops on both sides of the street have been closed for a long time.
Domestic garbage can be seen everywhere on the streets.
Occasionally, you can see some unknown corpses soaked and smelly in the ditch, with white maggots crawling all over the body...
There was a faint apocalyptic atmosphere in the air.
"It's all those damn outsiders who ruined a prosperous and orderly city into this state." The young uncle looked heartbroken.
"Has the city lord been sitting idly by for so long?"
Lin Beichen asked.
"The city lord is helpless."
The young uncle shook his head and sighed: "Furthermore, according to my observation, the city lord doesn't seem to have this ambition."
Walk and talk.
Arriving at the central area of Baiyun City, there were finally people on the street.
The Seven-Star Jujian Tower is located on the west side of the conspicuous central square of the city. It is seven stories high, with red bricks and green tiles, and iron eaves hanging from the eaves. It is beautiful and sturdy. It is extremely spectacular and can be regarded as one of the landmark buildings in Baiyun City.
The four of them came to the door of the restaurant.
"so many people?"
Lin Beichen looked towards the hall inside the building and was immediately surprised.
The square outside was deserted, but the building was overcrowded. The forty square tables in the hall on the first floor were densely packed with people of all kinds.
They all come to ask for swords.
Even before swordsmith Shen Xiaoyan arrived, the hall was already crowded with people asking for swords.
The life profession of swordsmith is too cool.
Lin Beichen couldn't help but sigh.
