Sitong County, Sitong City.
Winter has arrived, and the cold wind is mixed with broken snow, which is bone-chilling.
In a restaurant called Zuixiangju in the west of the city, the air is filled with the aroma of braised beef and the aroma of freshly fermented rice and wine.
Under the square table, there is a delicate red clay stove with a roaring fire.
The blazing fire warmed the chilly wine house and illuminated the newly brewed rice wine with green foam.
Lin Mo was sitting by the window, his pale face illuminated by the faint firelight, and the sound of drinking and shouting could be heard in his ears.
Loud and lively.
He didn't take it seriously. On the contrary, he quite liked being in such a place and enjoying life like an ordinary person.
He picked up the wine cup and took a sip of wine.
The rice wine brewed by Linggu is not very pure, but it has a different kind of fragrance.
Lin Mo poured himself a drink, and after a long time, he looked at Xiao Zhengyang sitting opposite him.
He was still wearing a blue robe, but his heavy shoulders were a little stooped, his complexion was not very good, and his rough and majestic face did not have much color.
There was also a faint smell of medicine and blood coming from his body.
Xiao Zhengyang didn't drink, he just leaned on the seat and looked at Lin Mo calmly.
Suddenly he smiled and turned his head to look at the light snow falling outside the window.
"The winter in Sitong City is colder than in Huaiping."
"This local specialty rice wine is not as refreshing as Qingbai Restaurant's Yuyuan Niang." Lin Mo replied.
"..." Xiao Zhengyang was silent, and then his heart dropped, and he shook his head with a wry smile.
"It's a joke for you, you can laugh if you want."
"I told you on that day that since the establishment of Qinglong Qisu that day, there will be no more Blue Split Whales. I will give them what they deserve, so as not to make it difficult for you, and you also promised me , but what’s the result?”
Lin Mo frowned, a little angry.
"The result is that someone grabbed the goods and got injured? No wonder you don't want to vent!"
As he spoke, he tapped the wine cup in his hand on the table, making a banging sound, and a few drops of green wine spilled on the table.
The sound seemed to be a bit loud, which made a strong man who was drinking and bragging not far away feel unhappy. Someone immediately patted the table and wanted to get up.
But before he could stand up, he was directly pressed down.
When he turned around, he saw a tall and burly man in black attire looking at him indifferently.
The curse words that suddenly rushed to his throat were suppressed, and he sat down again with a smile.
From the corner of my eye, I saw at least six or seven people sitting in this restaurant, all dressed in the same way.
His mind was even more horrified, and he tremblingly picked up the wine glass again, even if the wine dripped on his pants, he didn't say a word.
Seeing Lin Mo angry for the first time in a long time, Xiao Zhengyang's smile became increasingly bitter, and he finally picked up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"Perhaps this is my destiny. It's difficult to control destiny, but man can conquer nature. I used to think about how much human power can change in the face of fate."
There was a look of reminiscence in his eyes and he shook his head.
"This life was given to me by Ao Tianxiao in the first half of my life. Now I can give it back to his daughter. It's not a debt."
After the Taizhou Incident, it was difficult to survive in Yuzhou. What he wanted to do, as an elder, was to give Ao Minrou and Shi Ziyi a way out.
So bring it here.
It's just that things changed. When the opponent was weak, he was still well-behaved, but after he suddenly became aggressive, his appearance completely changed.
"Stop being sensational here. Your injuries are serious and you are not in a certain death situation yet." Lin Mo said angrily.
"By the way, who did it? Is there anyone in Huaizhou who dares to attack my people?" he asked after speaking. Some doubts.
Although Qinglonghui has turned to inland development, its reputation is getting louder and louder.
Not to mention those green forest strongmen, even local snakes at the general county level will give face to them on weekdays.
"This person..." Xiao Zhengyang was silent for a moment, the smile on his face disappeared, and a serious look appeared on his face.
"Do you still remember the first time I met you and told you about the history of the Blue Split Whale headquarters?"
"Spread the net widely and make more connections?"
"That's right, Ao Tianxiao has a very good reputation. On the surface, he is always willing to do charity. He is known as the Timely Rainer. Secretly, he likes to help geniuses in need.
His luck was good, and he funded several masters. They received feedback and formed a group force, which gained momentum. "Xiao Zhengyang recalled.
"Oh? Who is here?" Lin Mo became a little interested. He remembered that he was rated as a first-class genius that day.
Xiao Zhengyang didn't say much, he just took out a piece of information from his arms and handed it over.
Lin Mo took it.
After a while, strange color appeared on the face.
Zhao Wumian?
The incident recorded in the intelligence is the murder of the Zhao family in Sitong County, which has attracted a lot of attention recently.
It is about a wealthy family, and the plot is about avenging the concubine. Naturally, it is talked about and spread widely.
The protagonist is this Zhao Wumian.
According to legend, this man was very talented and talented. He was born with divine veins. Before he was twenty years old, he had achieved success in the six organs and became a half-step master.
In terms of combat power alone, he even defeated the masters of the Zhao clan.
Such a person can be said to be the protagonist in the storybook.
It stands to reason that as long as you don't die, you will definitely be the stars in the sky.
But the mistake is that its status is a bit subtle.
As the concubine of the Zhao family, Zhao Wumian, whose mother died early and without explanation, can be good, but not too good.
And it just so happened that his performance was too good.
So the result was that a few years ago, news came out that the genius young master's divine veins were fake and he turned out to be a waste. As for why he was so famous before, it was just to serve as a shield for the real genius of the Zhao family, his younger brother Zhao Yinglong.
The real reason was naturally that his divine veins were taken away, and he was expelled from his home because of this.
But the strange thing is that the waste that fell into the quagmire happened to gain power once again, and came back a few years later, directly enacting a revenge drama.
This script, which is reversed and reversed again, is naturally very popular and spreads widely.
While ordinary people pay attention to the incident itself, in the eyes of some thoughtful people, the meaning behind it is even more disturbing.
After all, the Sitong Zhao family is not a weakling. There is a great master martial artist in the family. How can such a force not be intimidating when the family is wiped out overnight?
"Zhao Wumian? With one person's power, you directly wiped out the Sitong Zhao family? If it is really him, you are lucky not to die." Lin Mo said softly.
"This person was also sponsored by Ao Tianxiao?"
Xiao Zhengyang nodded and sighed softly: "In fact, I have met the other party before. Although his temper was extreme before, but overall, his nature is quite pure, otherwise he would not be favored by us.
Now I don't know what he met in Taizhou, what opportunity he got, and his strength is terrifying. If he didn't still remember me, I wouldn't be dead. "
"Oh? What do you think his strength is?" Lin Mo asked.
"Just looking at me, I was struck by lightning and seriously injured." Xiao Zhengyang said frankly.
There is still some bitterness in the words.
As an old man who had wandered around the world, he was knocked down by a younger generation, which was a huge blow to him.
"That does have some strength." Lin Mo looked moved.
To bring down a grandmaster with his eyes is something even an ordinary grandmaster would not be able to do.
"Well, you don't need to worry. I heard that he came to Huaizhou to do some business and met Ao Minrou and others, so he took action. Maybe they have left now." Xiao Zhengyang laughed, smiling , pulled the wound, and coughed violently again.
Lin Mo didn't speak, just smiled.
"By the way, I found the person you asked me to check before. Hey, I can atone for my sins."
"A few resources are nothing." Lin Mo shook his head, "But the old man really found it?"
After talking about it, he was still a little surprised.
Lin Yuantian told him half a year ago that someone had seen the shadow of the Buddha's virtual image in Sitong County. He suspected that it was the missing Lin Zhao and asked him to help look for it if he was free.
It's just that he had a lot of things to do, and he went to Yueshan not long ago, so he only activated the power of the Blue Dragon Society to search.
The search lasted half a year.
Originally, everyone in the Lin family was planning to give up, but now the result has come out?
"As expected, we should have found him. The man you mentioned was hunted by the Black Buddhism for unknown reasons and entered the mountain. Then the news was lost, so the clues were lost.
And not long ago, in other places, this person appeared again. The description of the moves was very similar to what you said, so it should be the same person. "
Xiao Zhengyang said and took out another piece of information and handed it over. It was obviously already prepared.
Lin Mo opened it and read ten lines at a glance, quickly reading it.
"I was originally being hunted, then was seriously injured and lost my memory. I received favors from others, my benefactor suffered, was forced to take action, and was hunted again? The difference is that it became a double hunt?" Lin Mo was stunned after reading this.
"The old man is a man who values love and justice." Xiao Zhengyang laughed.
"..." Lin Mo was speechless, not knowing what to say.
"Please help me make an appointment to have a talk with the two forces that are taking action. Tell them that it's time to stop." He said softly.
"The other party also has this plan. Leave this matter to me. The results will be available today." Xiao Zhengyang nodded.
In fact, most of the time Jianghu is not just fighting and killing. If it were killing all the time, everyone would have been killed long ago.
"Thank you for this. I'll heal my wounds after this." Lin Mo's face brightened slightly and he raised his wine glass.
Ahem.
Xiao Zhengyang nodded and smiled, the same thing.
Snapped.
After finishing the glass, Lin Mo left first and walked out of the wine house.
It is most worry-free to leave professional matters to professionals.
If you really work hard at everything, would you still practice this martial arts?
.
In Sitong City, Lin Mo walked alone.
He did not go back to practice. Since Xiao Zhengyang said that the results would be available today, he simply waited.
The patience is still there.
As for the outcome, I'm not too worried.
It would be best if we could give some face to this kind of thing. If not, the worst possible outcome would be for them all to be exterminated.
Since his hands are stained with blood, he will not be kind to women when necessary.
There was no worry in my heart, just shopping was quite relaxing.
When he was in Lingtai Sect, he would still go out for walks with Lin Fei'er on weekdays, so the comfort of family company was undoubtedly very good.
But after being at ease for a long time, he still missed the cool feeling of being alone when he was alone.
It's a refreshing feeling of being carefree and carefree. I couldn't experience this feeling before marriage.
With this feeling, even an ordinary walk and shopping can be quite interesting.
Lin Mo walked along a relatively bustling commercial street like an ordinary person.
From time to time, if they encounter a wealthy family's carriage or an ox cart carrying goods, they will give way.
While shopping, walk, look east and west.
Compared with Huaiping, Sitong City is a bit duller and there are not as many ways to play.
At the same time, because they were far apart, they seemed not to be affected by the Taihuai battlefield, and there was still no worry on the faces of the pedestrians.
Although it is not very peaceful here, the Black Buddhism has occupied several cities in the south and is confronting the imperial army.
But the ordinary people here don't seem to care at all.
Overall, it's quite suitable for life.
"Lin...Lin Mo?"
Suddenly, a female voice came from behind.
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, a little surprised. There were very few people who dared to call him that nowadays.
He turned around, and the beautiful figure in front of him was very familiar. No wonder he dared to call him like this:
"Yun Shiya...why are you here?"
This person was Yun Shiya, who had a pretty good relationship when they were in Huaiping, and their friendship almost turned into love.
After not seeing her for more than a year, she has changed very little. Her figure is still petite and cute, her little face is like porcelain, and it has become red in the cold air, and she is looking excited at this time.
There is another person beside him, his cousin Mo Shiqi. She has changed a lot, her temperament is more gentle, her hair is tied up, her hairstyle has changed, she is obviously married.
"Why are you here? Aren't you in Huaiping? By the way, have you passed the examination for entering the sect? Why has there been no news from you since then!"
Yun Shiya chattered non-stop, jumping up and down in front of Lin Mo, talking and feeling a little sad.
Because she was taken away by her father not long after.
"I passed the assessment by luck, so now that I'm not in Huaiping, I'll stop by to do some errands." Lin Mo said with a smile.
In Huaiping, this little girl was one of the few who was sincere to him. Although there was no result between the two of them, it was still touching to meet each other in a different place and to know each other from a foreign land.
"Well, congratulations then. My father has been sent abroad, and Huaiping is in chaos, so I came here with my cousin, and now we are temporarily living in Sitong." Yun Shiya whispered, and sighed as she spoke.
As they talked, the two briefly chatted about their current situation.
Mo Shiqi on the side didn't say much, maintaining a dignified and gentle posture. Judging from her clothes and accessories, she still looked a bit like a noble lady now.
According to Lin Mo's observation, there were even many guards around.
A group of people went shopping together.
Most of the time, Yun Shiya asked and Lin Mo answered.
This little girl is much more bold and lively than before.
Whoosh.
At this moment, the busy streets gradually became quiet, and the flow of people around them also gradually disappeared.
The group of people couldn't help but slow down a little, and the guards who were originally scattered gathered together with solemn expressions.
Even the heartless Yun Shiya reacted, slowed down her steps, and moved closer to Lin Mo.
In everyone's sight, a group of men in white clothes appeared from the other end of the street and walked quickly.
All of them have strong bodies and ferocious auras, and they are not good people at first glance.
"It's Baiyundao, Shiya, you and Lin Mo lean back and quickly take out your uncle's identity token. These people are all crazy after hearing this...this..."
Mo Shiqi on the side said in a low voice with a solemn look on her face and her voice was trembling. But midway through her words, she saw everyone from Baiyundao dressed in white leaning towards Lin Mo. Except for the leader, everyone else bowed and saluted. , without saying a word,
Lian Lian suddenly looked at Lin Mo with shock:
"This...is your...friend?"
