Chapter 143: In the dark
"Of course this is my business." Lin Yi was not pretentious. He was very serious. Facing the old man's words, what he thought in his mind was that whether Chen Baowan or Xiao Shufei was of course extremely important to him.
He liked Xiao Shufei. Shi Chong joked with him back then and even called Xiao Shufei his wife directly, and Chen Baowan, like Shi Chong, was also his best friend.
Not even talking about these people, if Xiao Suxin or Qi Zhuji are in danger today, he will definitely ignore all dangers and do his best to save them, even if he gives his life.
He thinks that this must be true between a true friend and a lover, otherwise how can it be considered true?
But he could do this regardless of his life and death. For this old man who is accustomed to the world, his evaluation of Lin Yi in his heart was naturally higher.
Although he is old, he is not old-fashioned.
In his opinion, some things only need the final result to be good, and the process is more tortuous or compromise is worth it.
Compared to this, many of his students are more pedantic.
Due to his limited life experience, many military generals may not like the son of a sinner like Lin Yi, but in his eyes, Lin Yi has the potential of all excellent generals, and like the students he admires the most, Lin Yi also has the trait that makes people excited and even follow.
"It should be the Chen family."
He looked at Lin Yi gently and whispered: "I know that many people in the Chen family have appeared in the nearby mountains and forests. Such a big scene should be the daughter of the Chen family you mentioned."
"Is it Chen Baowan?"
Lin Yi's body was a little chilled. He looked at the old man and asked softly and anxiously, "Do you know where she is possible now?"
"The practitioners of the Chen family...even half of them are much better than all of us here. I understand your mood, but I'm afraid that even if you can get through, it will not be of any use." Ye Jing said slowly, "What's more, your current situation is not optimistic. If I read it correctly, you should be swallowing the Dragon Blood Pill just now. This tiger and wolf medicine will greatly damage your vitality, and it will be difficult for you to fight like before."
It is related to the secret of cultivation, and Lin Yi cannot explain that the drug of Dragon Blood Pill did not cause much damage to him at this time. He thought for a while and said, "You can't do nothing. If you know where they are, I still hope you can tell me. If...if the conspiracy of the Northern Wei Dynasty has not been launched at this time, it will be better if I can pass the news to her as soon as possible."
"And..." Lin Yi paused and said, "She may not believe the military information given to her by others without any confirmation, but she will definitely believe what I told her."
"Then I will try to follow two roads to go at the same time for this matter." The old man said a few words to the two close servants beside him, and then the two close servants left separately.
He turned his head and whispered to Lin Yi: "I will arrange for people to spread the military information first, and at the same time, I will try to ask the practitioners of the Chen family where they might be active at this time."
"Thank you."
Lin Yi was very happy and bowed to the old man again.
"After talking about other people's affairs, you should talk about your own affairs." The old man looked at him gently and said slowly, "I have talked to you for so long, but I have not sensed how much true energy you have. In addition to the previous battle formation, the methods you used, in my judgment, your cultivation is not high, but your physical strength is very strong... So, what can I do to help you with your cultivation? You should understand that in this mountain forest, nothing is important in cultivation or strength."
Lin Yi could also hear his kindness and understood that the other party had not explored his cultivation and the intention of his practice, so he did not explain anything, nor was he polite, and said: "These purely spiritual medicines that bring spiritual energy are of no use to me now. If there are spiritual medicines related to strengthening the body, they are good."
Ye Jing smiled slightly.
There was a slight regret deep in his eyes.
He could not associate Lin Yi with Dajuluo from many years ago. He didn't like to read those non-subtitled classics and notes. Therefore, although he was knowledgeable, he didn't even know about characters like Dajuluo in different aspects. He just thought that the reason why Lin Yi had such combat power was just to deliberately develop towards physical body refining.
But for an orthodox practitioner like him, that kind of physical body refining is naturally a minor path.
When you reach the Chengtian realm, you will find it difficult to compete with a swordsman like him who lacks many true essences and uses.
But he is open-minded after all, and nothing can be perfect, especially now that Linghuang is here.
So he nodded and said sincerely: "Now that the spiritual wasteland has arrived, and there may not be such an opportunity in Meishan in the future. It may not be a smart way to choose such a cultivation path."
After all, Lin Yi did not confess completely, and he could see that the old man had something to say next, so he didn't say anything, just listened.
The old man whispered a few words to a waiter behind him.
Then the waiter and some people around him prepared something, put it in a cloth bag, and handed it to the old man.
The old man handed it to Lin Yi again and said, "This is some of my wishes and my students."
Lin Yi did not refuse and accepted it calmly.
"You are very good, too."
The old man's gentle eyes fell on Yuan Yan behind Lin Yi. He said with praise: "Even if you don't have much strength, you still follow him even though you know the danger, which is righteous."
Yuan Yan lowered her head, as if she was shy, but she wanted to laugh when she listened to his words.
"What wise man, what old man in the Three Pure Ones."
She wanted to laugh, not only because of Ye Jing's words at this time, but also because of his previous conversation with Lin Yi. She now hopes that the old man can really ask Chen Baowan where he is. In this way, she just needs to continue to follow Lin Yi, or she can truly approach Chen Baowan's side.
She had spent so much effort to make arrangements before, but was instead disguised by the people from the South Heavenly Courtyard.
Now if the new student of the South Heaven Academy actually came to Chen Baowan's side, wouldn't he have the will of heaven in the dark? Isn't it a good thing?
“There is a difference between men and women.”
An old man's close servant, also a practitioner, came to Yuan Yan's face, handed Yuan Yan a piece of medicine, and said these four words at the same time.
This means simple, but because you are a woman, it is not convenient to help you heal your wounds.
"Thank you."
Yuan Yan thought these people were also interesting. She held back her laughter and said softly, taking the medicine, "I can do it myself."
"Actually, I roughly know where the Chen family's practitioners are."
Then she became serious and said softly to Lin Yi and Ye Jing.
