Lin Jie left here satisfied, taking with him the trophies he obtained from Liu Sisi. Walk leisurely.
"He almost cleared away the rouge, powder, and some beautiful jewelry on the dressing table."
Whistling, I returned to Lingxi Peak leisurely. Instead of returning to his small courtyard, he headed towards the elixir garden where Lin Lanlan worked.
In the mountains and forests, pedestrians scattered on the stone steps. Lin Jie walked slowly and saw the road in front of him that was blocked by crowds. He turned his head toward a pavilion in the forest.
He looked over there and then looked away. Wasn't it a beautiful woman practicing dancing? Lin Jie was a little speechless. These people really had no future at all and were not as good as a hair on their own.
Perhaps because he saw a lot yesterday, or spent the night with Liu Sisi, Lin Jie's immunity to beautiful women has strengthened a bit now. So I had no interest in staying and just wanted to take a detour.
I saw several disciples holding wrapped gifts and walking slowly over to strike up a conversation.
There are elixirs, talismans and the like, which look to be of extraordinary quality. But the senior sister ignored it. Treat them like air.
There were also some gifts of gold and silver jewelry, rouge and gouache, but they were also ignored.
The most valuable ones are the swords packed by a senior brother.
He pulled out the sword. The two blades were sharp and the sword had complicated patterns on it. It was obviously not ordinary.
But the woman still just glanced at him elegantly, and then said coldly.
"leave"
Seeing these people leaving in despair, Lin Jie couldn't help but sigh.
"This senior sister's temper doesn't feel colder than Leng Shixue's."
He said this out of emotion and did not hide it. People around him heard it and agreed with it. One of them laughed.
"This is our goddess Xu Wanqing of Lingxi Peak. She seems to have been ordered by her master to live in seclusion for a long time. She rarely shows up in the sect, so she is not very famous."
Another direct disciple, Lin Jie sighed. Only the direct disciple, the master, can discipline him, while ordinary disciples are left to fend for themselves. Envious.
At this time, another person slowly came forward, holding a book in his hand.
"I heard that Senior Sister Xu Wanqing attended a party in the back garden of Red Fire Peak these past two days. Could it be that this guy thought that Senior Sister was also interested in this novel?"
"Tch, he had a good idea, but it's a pity that it will come to nothing. As far as I know, apart from practicing spiritual practice, my other hobby is dancing."
They are all fans of Xu Wanqing, and they are like modern illegitimate fans, inquiring about Xu Wanqing's news and privacy. Even she knew it after going to a party.
Xu Wanqing was in a very depressed mood. Thinking that the weather was nice, she found a quiet open space in a pavilion to practice her new dance, but she unexpectedly attracted so many people.
It would be fine if they just watched quietly from a distance. Some people came to strike up a conversation. Although they rejected them one by one, they were still impatient.
He decided to leave after practicing this movement, but he caught a glimpse of another person walking towards him.
She was about to refuse as coldly as before, but she caught a glimpse of the book in the man's hand.
"The senior sister I've been in love with for three years now likes me."
Isn't this title the one recommended by Li Siyue at the party? Although she usually doesn't like to read story novels, she liked the poem Li Siyue read very much.
What kind of story goes with such a word?
She was a little curious at the time, but later the book was borrowed by Leng Shixue.
Leng Shixue was one of the few people who could make her feel ashamed. After all, the other person's cultivation and appearance were slightly higher than hers. At that time, Leng Shixue opened the book after getting it, and then seemed to be immersed in it. He secretly observed her, but she didn't seem to notice it.
What is the charm of this book? She was very curious, but later asked her best friend to buy it, but she didn't buy it.
I actually saw him today. Her frown relaxed and her cold eyes softened.
"Thank you, junior brother, for the book."
Before the disciple holding the book could speak, the book was taken by the beautiful senior sister in front of him. When he heard the other party say thank you to him, his face suddenly turned red and he said with a reserved expression.
"Sister, if you like it, that's fine."
Xu Wanqing took the book and confirmed the title and author. After "Robbery of the Forest".
It seemed that there was nothing wrong. She smiled gently and took out a second-level spirit-gathering pill from her storage bag. He handed it to his junior brother who was looking at him stupidly.
After he took it carefully as if he was surprised and favored. Xu Wanqing put away her books and left here without any debt to each other.
The people next to him were talking a lot, and those who just said that Xu Wanqing was not interested in this person also lowered their heads and smiled dryly to ease their embarrassment.
"Does anyone know the title of the book he just sent?"
"I don't know, it's too far away."
"I know, it must be that book about "The senior sister I've been in love with for three years turns out to like me"."
"What kind of book is this? Why is the name so weird?"
"I don't know. It seems to have been spread at the goddess gathering."
"I know, it seems to be recommended by Goddess Li Shiyue. I also went shopping in the town yesterday, but I just didn't buy it."
"Me too, I really don't know how lucky that kid is to be able to buy a book."
Everyone started chatting, like a group of gossips after eating melon. Lin Jie was among them and eavesdropped openly.
No wonder so many people came to buy the book I sold yesterday. It turned out to be recommended by others. Lin Jie suddenly realized that this was good news for him.
He sneaked out quietly, left the gathering crowd, and continued towards the elixir garden. Continuing along the stone steps, after going around a few bends, you will find a forest. After passing through the forest, you will walk straight ahead for a while and arrive at the entrance of the Spiritual Medicine Garden.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw several disciples wearing red and white robes in front of the spiritual medicine garden.
People from Law Enforcement Peak, why are they here?
Lin Jie took two steps forward and asked the two people talking.
"Two senior brothers, what happened here?"
The two of them stopped talking and looked at Lin Jie. One of them had a look on his face and pondered for a moment before explaining.
"Who are you? What does it have to do with this place?"
"I am Lin Jie, a disciple of Lingxi Peak. A sister of mine is here to take care of the elixir."
The man was a little surprised when he heard this and stared at Lin Jie for a moment. His tone was more casual and he smiled.
"You are the Lin Jie who dares to confront Master Li. You don't have three heads and six arms."
"Senior brother is joking. I am a human and not a monster. How can I have three heads and six arms?"
"Haha, even a monster with three heads and six arms would not dare to confront Master Li. You are very brave."
He smiled and praised, his admiration was genuine, then he looked at the elixir garden and turned away.
"This morning, Xi Yuanqing came to our Law Enforcement Peak and said that his elixir garden was losing elixirs every day. Let us investigate."
Xi Yuanqing? Lin Jie had heard of this name, and he was also a direct disciple of Lingxi Peak. So you can have your own elixir garden.
"Lost the elixir? Then aren't the people working here?"
"I know what you want to say. The people have been brought to the Law Enforcement Peak for interrogation. We have verified the ledger of daily output and income of this elixir garden. This week's data is indeed too deviated from the previous one. It is missing. It does exist, but no evidence has been found yet.”
"How can you do this? There is no evidence pointing to them."
Lin Jie was a little angry, how could he arrest so many people so casually.
"The formation has not been destroyed, and is guarded every night, and is lost every day. This is enough to label them as suspects."
The man had a calm face, sighed, walked closer to Lin Jie, and whispered in his ear.
"Just because Xi Yuanqing is a direct disciple, the people who work here are just bugs with low cultivation talent."
Lin Jie chuckled, looked at the two of them expressionlessly, his eyes lowered a bit, squeezed out a smile, and left.
"Senior Brother Ning, why did you deliberately provoke him?"
The disciple next to him asked curiously. He was always confused about what his senior brother was doing.
"It's very simple. I want to see what kind of person is the person who dares to confront Master?"
"Then what did you see?"
Senior Brother Ning touched his mouth with one hand and knocked the junior brother next to him on the head with the other hand.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
…
Lin Jie recalled what the man said. A little annoyed, but also a little helpless.
"Just because I'm a descendant named Xi, I can go to Law Enforcement Peak to deal with him. Lin Lanlan and the others are just trash with low talent, so even if they are angry and wronged, no one will help them even if they die."
Okay, easy to understand, Lin Jie thought. Then he decided to go to Qionglu at Law Enforcement Peak.
Although he is not a disciple of Law Enforcement Peak, he is a good friend of the Eclipse Tengu, the guardian beast of Qionglu (I think so.)
So we came to Law Enforcement Peak and followed the stone steps to the familiar Qionglu.
