While Ji Ting was looking at her, Jiang Yanlin also looked at her cautiously.
The latter did not immediately let go of Lin Manliu's sleeves, but instead pulled him tighter...
Jiang Yanlin was about to continue talking, but soon he saw his brother Liu, shook his head and smiled at him.
Only then did Jiang Yanlin calm down and retract his right hand that was tugging on his sleeve.
Seeing this, Ji Ting had no choice but to speak out: "Everyone can be settled at the age of six, and it won't be too late to go to the main hall."
Lin Manliu said: "It doesn't matter. Since we have important matters to discuss, the sooner the better. I also want to ask the old liar something!"
Ji Ting said yes, and then led the rest of the people to the side courtyard of Yijian Villa.
Lin Manliu watched everyone go away until no one could be seen, and then he set off to the main hall.
At this time, the door of the main hall was tightly closed. The disciples of Yijian Villa who were responsible for patrolling outside the door could not tell what kind of scene there was, and they did not even hear a sound.
They were on duty near the main hall as always, when suddenly a figure walked out from the corner of the corridor in front.
When everyone looked at him intently, the young man in a short shirt had already bowed respectfully.
Lin Manliu said: "Manliu just returned to the village, and I saw all the senior brothers here!"
Seeing the familiar figure appearing in front of them, these disciples of Yijian Villa couldn't help but smile.
Someone rushed forward and slapped the boy in a short shirt on the arm.
Some people were shouting about the suffering of these days, and they did not forget a few strange words in their mouths, saying that Junior Brother Lin is enjoying himself these days traveling around the mountains and rivers?
Some people nodded and smiled at Lin Manliu, and said softly, just come back.
The boy in a short shirt responded to them one by one, flattering where they should be flattered, retorting where there was a need, and saluting where there was a need.
These are called human feelings and sophistication!
Lin Manliu finally saluted everyone again. The patrolling senior brothers were all respectful and accepted this friendship.
After all, even those who stay in the villa all day long know that it is not easy to go to southern Xinjiang.
Lin Manliu spoke up: "Manliu will go to the main hall later to discuss some matters with Mr. Qinglan and the old liar. Who among you senior brothers can help Manliu go and report it?"
Someone was the first to step over the boy in a short shirt, and then his pace gradually became faster. By the time the others reacted, they had already taken five or six steps.
He turned his back to the young man in the short shirt and said, "Junior brother Lin must be discussing something important. I don't think there is any need to report. We can just go directly to the main hall!"
After him, the other patrolling disciples also followed, and Lin Manliu's instructions were no different from his.
Basically, just ask the boy in a short shirt to go there as soon as possible, don't worry about these details, or shout out, isn't the main thing of our Yijian Villa is casual!
Lin Manliu finally understood that these brothers, who were usually brothers, were all waiting for him to be the first person to knock on the door.
Everyone still knows the principle of killing the leader with a gun and killing the local leader with a sword.
However, in this atmosphere, the boy in short shirt did not really complain, because from the first contact with Senior Sister Ji Ting today, to the subsequent reactions of the disciples, their performances gave Lin Manliu an answer.
Regarding the death of Brother Xue, no one mentioned it and no one regretted it, so this rumor was not credible to Yijian Villa.
So at this moment, the old liar in the main hall must be the one who least believes it.
Lin Manliu was determined and walked quickly towards the main hall gate.
When the boy in short shirt approached, before he even raised his hand to knock on the door, the door of the main hall was opened from the inside.
The familiar yet unbeatable lazy voice sounded again in front of Lin Manliu.
"Master Lin has limited legs and feet. How long does it take to walk a few steps?"
Ye Dang, who was speaking out loud, thought that the young man in front of him would definitely retaliate, and he started to feel happy.
As a result, Lin Manliu shouted softly: "Old liar, long time no see!"
This left Ye Dang at a loss for words and couldn't answer anything. He had no choice but to wave his hands and walk towards the main hall.
Lin Manliu smiled as he watched the yellow shirt disappear into the dim main hall again, and he quickly followed.
After the short-shirted boy entered the main hall, his expression changed several times in an instant, from hesitation to confusion, then to thinking, and finally to enlightenment.
In the main hall, besides Ye Dangting and Mr. Qinglan, there were seven other people sitting there.
There was a candle lit in front of each person, but otherwise there was no light in the temple.
I could only vaguely see everyone's faces, as well as Ye Dangting and Qing Lan sitting at the main seat and slightly to the side of the main seat.
After Lin Manliu figured it out, he ignored the strangers present and bowed in Qinglan's direction.
"Thank you, senior, for taking care of me these days! The boy is back!"
Qinglan nodded with satisfaction and waved to the boy in a short shirt.
"It'll be good when you're back! Sit wherever you want, sit wherever you want!"
Ye Dangting sat in an extremely lazy posture on the main seat, holding his cheek with his left arm very leisurely. He also smacked his lips towards an empty seat not far away, signaling Lin Manliu to come and take a seat.
The actions of the two people were also seen by the other seven people, some of whom were originally livid, but gradually began to soften.
After Lin Manliu took his seat, he followed the old liar's gaze and looked at the seven silent people in front of him.
Judging from the faces, bodies, and clothing of these people, it is not difficult to tell that they are all from the world.
Considering what happened recently, the origins of these people are much easier to guess. They are representatives of Jianghu sects who intend to "cannibalize" Yijian Villa.
When the boy in the short shirt took a closer look, he found that some of them were old faces. They had been here before when they helped Xun Hanshan. Now that they have entered Yijian Villa, they are considered repeat customers.
Lin Manliu pretended to be questioning and asked Ye Dangting: "What are these seniors from the world gathering here for today?"
Ye Dangting stood up and responded in the same old-fashioned way.
"Actually, these seniors have been staying in the village for some time, all to discuss cooperation with our Yijian Villa!"
Lin Manliu let out a very cooperative sigh, and then stood up hurriedly. It looked like he was about to salute the seven people with clasped fists.
But the boy in the short shirt made such a coherent movement that he stopped at the last moment.
Everyone looked at the general's actions, and their expressions darkened again.
Qing Lan was also made to laugh by the boy's actions. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "This show is more interesting if there are more people!"
When Ye Dang looked back at Qing Lan, he also laughed, but when he looked at the seven people again, his expression turned cold again.
"So everyone, let's express our opinions earlier...and don't embarrass each other too much!"
Seeing that no one said anything, Ye Dangting added another sentence.
"I don't know if I told you before, but today is the deadline..."
As soon as these words came out, a strong man stood up and pointed at Ye Dangting.
The man shouted: "Master Ye Er is so aggressive, how can we tolerate it?"
In fact, there was another sentence that he was holding back in his heart.
What the hell is the deadline? You, Ye Dang, clearly came up with it as soon as you slapped your thigh. If you really cooperate with someone like you, what way will you get ahead in the future?
Ye Dangting said in a cold voice: "Then when you heard some rumors and couldn't wait to come back with the intention of carving up my Yijian Villa, did you ever think about this?"
Now that it was time for Bai Lian to appear, Qing Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was taking a nap and no longer interfered.
Listening to Ye Dang's tone getting colder, someone immediately stood up and spoke out.
"What happened before was probably a misunderstanding. Besides, since Master Ye Er is keeping me like this, there must be a possibility of negotiation, right?"
Ye Dangting did not answer, but looked at the boy in a short shirt beside him.
Lin Manliu then said: "Presumably all the seniors gathered here still don't know what happened in the original territory, right?"
Someone immediately asked: "What's the matter?"
The person who spoke out didn't care whether the young man's words were deceitful or not. Since he was given a step to take, he had to watch the opportunity and follow the trend.
The young man in a short shirt was leisurely and leisurely, telling all the current situation in the Jiangnan area in an extremely relaxed and comfortable tone.
The suspicion among the seven people present turned from doubt to disbelief. When Lin Man finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to the yellow shirt above the main seat.
Ye Dang heard the sarcasm: "What do these things have to do with our Yijian Villa?"
Lin Manliu said: "I have told all the seniors what I know. You can decide for yourself what to think."
Not far away from the two of them, Qing Lan, who was already in a light sleep, suddenly burped and quickly raised his hand to wipe his mouth.
"I just dreamed of eating a fish... There were some small fish in the belly of the fish. It's not surprising, but what's strange is that there are some small shrimps hidden in the belly of those small fish!"
After Qing Lan said something faint, there was no movement, as if she fell asleep again.
Everyone present did not know that this was an ultimatum and a reminder to them at the same time.
The mastermind behind the attack did not expect them to succeed.
And even if Yijian Villa fights with them, both sides will suffer losses. In the end, only Yijian Villa can compete with the people behind the scenes.
At the same time, anyone could guess that the bandits from various places who heard about the troubles caused by bandits in the short-sleeved shirt were probably behind the scenes.
If they don't succeed, their backyard will have no choice but to catch fire.
At this point, someone finally stood up tremblingly, and then hugged Qinglan and Ye Dangting with great respect.
"Go to the back door and leave everything at the mercy of Yijian Villa..."
With the first person, there will naturally be a second person, and in the end it will be everyone. After all, no one wants to be the one left behind.
Ye Dangting raised his head, knocked on the table, and shouted softly: "It's enough if you have this intention. It's up to you whether you want to stay or go!"
Someone was about to ask: "Master Ye Erzhuang, if you want to ask about Sword Lake..."
Ye Dangting spoke immediately, interrupting the other party's speech.
"Sect Master Ming... I'm afraid he's already fishing alone in the sea right now? You'd better take your disciples back as soon as possible and deal with the bandits as soon as possible."
Mingxi is gone? !
Lin Manliu and the seven people all looked shocked. Ye Dangting had no choice but to take out a secret letter from his arms and throw it to the boy in a short shirt.
After reading the contents of the secret message, the young man also learned about Wenjianhu's departure overseas.
It seems like the world is really going to be in chaos...
In front of him, Xiao Baoli and his Liaoyuan Army camped in southern Xinjiang, with unknown intentions.
Later, Mingxi suddenly left the show and went overseas, which must have been to protect Mingzhe's life.
Combined with Jiang Yanlin's previous encounters in the Xijing Imperial City, as well as the Zhao Xiang, Zhu Gaojiu and others he met later.
Although these things have nothing to do with each other, they all point to one place. The owner of these vast mountains and rivers, the Yanyang Dynasty, must have changes!
The building is about to collapse. There are so many people who shun the world and are timid, and there are many people who wait and see and make profits, but there are very few people who can turn the tide.
