Bai Yan's seemingly light words made Chen Lin ponder. He didn't do anything, so why did Bai Yan make friends with him? Is it because of Zi Yan?
Thinking of this, Chen Lin squinted at Zi Yan who was eating and drinking at the side. That little girl was like a simple little girl. She didn't think about the good or bad of it. She just ate so much that Chen Lin's face turned pale.
I felt so angry and funny at the same time. This little girl was so cute and innocent. She was definitely a foodie. She would probably finish all the food in this restaurant this time.
Seeing Zi Yan eating and drinking so much, Bai Yan was also overjoyed and immediately filled Chen Lin with wine: "Come on, come on, brother Lin, we won't come home until we get drunk today."
Ever since he knew that Bai Yan was from the royal family, Chen Lin had become more relaxed. Being able to get to know someone from the royal family was equivalent to having an extra trump card. Facing the oppression of the two major families, he wouldn't have too many worries.
, so I started to eat and laugh a lot.
"Brother Lin knows that Chen Lin is wanted." After drinking for a while, Bai Yan finally asked. Naturally, he would only say this to Chen Lin, because who in Qingcheng doesn't know about this? The government
They are all posted at the city gate so that everyone can easily see them.
But he still asked, and Chen Lin seemed quite calm. Could it be that he knew that he was Chen Lin? And what did this meal of wine mean?
"Haha, maybe Brother Lin has his own reasons. Yes, I will tell you the truth. I want to be friends with you because I just want to know the whereabouts of Chen Lin." What Chen Lin didn't expect was that Bai Yan would generously
The purpose was clearly stated, and the language was impeccable.
"Haha, I just met him once in the mountains. I really don't know about the rest." Chen Lin smiled bitterly.
"Oh, that's such a pity." Bai Yan said with a downcast face.
"Oh? Isn't he just someone the government wants to arrest? Why is Brother Bai so worried?" Chen Lin asked with a raised brow.
"Actually, to be honest with Brother Lin, I once investigated this Chen Lin and found that he was not such a vicious person. On the contrary, the Murong family's recent actions were too excessive. It must have been the Murong family's fault first, and then Chen Lin had no choice but to kill people.
." Bai Yan smiled.
"I'm afraid it's not just that." Chen Lin also said with a bitter smile. Unexpectedly, the only person who knew him was the person he had just met in front of him. His opinion of Bai Yan soon became much better.
"Hehe, Brother Lin is indeed smart. According to my investigation, Chen Lin did not know how to practice at first, but the master of the Murong family, who was at least at the peak of the martial arts, could die in his hands. The reason why is so strange, I can only
To describe it in one sentence: Chen Lin's talent is really too evil." Bai Yan's words are true. Even Chen Lin did not expect that his progress would be so rapid. Three months to reach the realm of the day after tomorrow is beyond the reach of many people.
It's unimaginable that if it weren't for the Three-Yuan Yang Transformation Kung Fu, he would still be at the bottom.
"Yes, he seems to be a talented person. If there is a chance, I will tell him for you." Chen Lin said with a slight smile.
"Then thank you so much, Brother Lin." Bai Yan was overjoyed and said with cupped hands.
"Haha, can you tell me about Qingcheng now? I still don't know much about the wanted Chen Lin." Chen Lin smiled dryly.
"Well, a few days ago, several servants of the Murong family came back with serious injuries, claiming that Chen Lin, a descendant of the Chen family, had killed the second master of the Murong family. Although this incident was very sensational at first, a descendant of the Chen family
, and how can it be possible to kill an elder-level master? In my opinion, the Murong family is deliberately targeting the Chen family." Bai Yan said.
"Yeah." Chen Lin nodded, agreeing with his point of view. Even if he were to do it himself, he wouldn't believe it. The Murong family has been in a lot of trouble recently. Although the two families are stable on the surface, they secretly want to annex him.
He wanted to get rid of the other party, so he was looking for an opportunity to deal with the Chen family. This matter naturally became his reason.
"But after the Murong family moved Murong Tian's body out, we all believed it. No family would dare to play tricks on the top masters of their own family." Bai Yan continued to analyze, "So recently, we
The palace has also begun to prepare to find Chen Lin, but it is not to hand it over directly to his Murong family, but to find out the whole story, and no one wants to let such a talented person be obliterated."
Chen Lin admired Bai Yan from the bottom of his heart. He was worthy of being a member of the royal family. He was at least much more open and aboveboard in his work than the two major families. There were too few such things.
"What about the Chen family? How are they doing recently?" Chen Lin continued to ask.
"The Chen family has been in a bit of trouble recently. They started out in the medicinal herb industry, and now the Murong family has found a large amount of spiritual herbs from nowhere, which are several times better than medicinal herbs. Therefore, the Chen family's industry is also getting worse day by day.
Today, in just a few months, almost half of the income has been lost.”
This is true. Compared with medicinal herbs, spiritual herbs are already a level higher than ordinary cultivators. It is no wonder that the Chen family is becoming increasingly depressed.
"But this incident is not the biggest blow. The biggest one is Chen Yun, the most talented person in the Chen family. He is also one of the people I admire. His cultivation level is also at the ninth level of a warrior, but he died in Murong
In the hands of the family.”
Buzz!
Chen Lin's expression changed slightly. Chen Yun, he still knew this person. He was the son of the second master Chen Ruofeng. His cultivation level was only one step away from the acquired realm. In Qingcheng, the talent
It can be considered one of the best. Although he is not very interested in the affairs of the Chen family, he was a little surprised that everything the Murong family did to the Chen family was so thorough.
"I only know that the two major families are now eyeing the entire medicinal material industry in Qingcheng, and even the palace cannot control it. However, the medicinal herbs produced by the Murong family have already reached the effect of spiritual herbs, which also caused a great setback to the medicine shop managed by Chen Yun. At that time,
I thought that with Chen Yun's strength, he wouldn't be injured, but now the Murong family is no longer the original Murong family. There are so many masters that they could knock Chen Yun down with one move, which is really shocking." Bai Yan smiled bitterly.
road.
"Oh? Doesn't the palace care about it?" Chen Lin asked suspiciously.
"Haha, this kind of thing is common not only in Qingcheng, but also in the capital. As long as there is no major conflict, the palace will not care about it, let alone the competition in the industry now?"
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Lin nodded in agreement without refuting. It must be said that the Murong family was very smart. They knew that there was a royal family in the middle, so they did not dare to directly annex the poor and asthmatic Chen family. Instead, they used the economy to annex the Chen family.
The house is broken down.
"Now that the world is declining, I have to bow my head!" Chen Lin couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, but it doesn't matter. Those are the affairs of the two major families. As long as it doesn't affect the people, it doesn't matter. Come on, let's continue drinking." Bai Yan smiled and filled Chen Lin's glass with wine.
While the two were laughing and chatting, time flew by in the evening, and the setting sun was finally setting. The two of them had just finished drinking, and Chen Lin also seemed a little faint.
This kind of situation often happens in restaurants, but today, it was an eye-opener for the entire restaurant, and everyone looked here with wide eyes.
What they were looking at was not Chen Lin or Bai Yan, but Zi Yan with a big belly!
Beside her, there were dozens of large and small bowls, and even a dozen jars of wine, and they were all empty. It was hard to imagine how much this little girl had eaten. Even Chen Lin and the others were also
They all looked at Zi Yan in surprise.
"Finally something delicious." Zi Yantiantian said with a greasy mouth and patted her belly with satisfaction. She still looked like a girl, more like a starving ghost.
"Haha, girl, you really have a good drinker, it's really not easy." Bai Yan laughed loudly.
"Do you have a good drinker? I'm just a foodie." Chen Lin lowered his head and whispered awkwardly.
"Okay, we have to leave too. Thank you Brother Bai for the wine today. I will definitely invite you back when I have time someday." Chen Lin said with a smile.
"Haha, no need. It's your first time in Qingcheng. I'm really ashamed that I didn't get close to the landlord's friendship. If you don't mind, you can spend the night in a humble house tonight. How about we find a place tomorrow?" Bai Yan said with a smile.
"How dare you be so embarrassed?" Chen Lin quickly waved his hand.
"Nowadays, almost all restaurants and inns belong to the Murong family. I'm afraid Brother Lin is doing something wrong." Bai Yan said.
Chen Lin pondered for a moment, and then he acquiesced. If he injured the Murong family, they would definitely not let him go. During the day, it was for Bai Yan's sake that they didn't pursue him. Looking at Zi Yan, the little girl drank
After drinking too much wine, I fell asleep with my big belly in my hands. The sleeping posture is also very confusing. In this case, where can I find an inn?
After thinking for a moment, Chen Lin smiled bitterly and said, "Then I'll bother Brother Bai."
It has to be said that the royal family's power in Qingcheng exceeds that of the two major families. Whether it is material or financial resources, it can occupy almost half of Qingcheng. If they were not a government official and had no time to take care of Jianghu affairs, I am afraid that this Qingcheng's number one overlord
The title was also occupied by his palace.
The palace is very big. Bai Yan's own mansion alone is even bigger than the Chen family. The pavilions, pavilions, streams, and quiet gardens are all good places for cultivation. It's no wonder that Bai Yan found such a place for them ingeniously.
A good place. So Chen Lin’s impression of Bai Yan increased by another three points.
They had only "met" Chen Lin once, and Bai Yan treated them like this. He was worthy of being a member of the royal family, and he was easy to make friends all over the world. No matter who was with him, he wanted to be friends with him.
impulse.
After settling Chen Lin and Zi Yan, Bai Yan went out. When he came to the hall, there was already a person waiting there.
This man is an old man over sixty years old. He is wearing a gray robe that covers most of his body. Although the aura on his body has been restrained, his serious eyes still have a chilling air, which makes people feel sad.
Don't dare to get close.
If any master had seen this person, they would definitely be shocked. This person's cultivation level is so mysterious! His aura may have reached the state of acquired perfection!
However, when he saw Bai Yan coming in, the old man's fierce eyes suddenly condensed and became very soft. He bowed and called: "Young Master."
"Well, how are things going?" Bai Yan nodded and sat on a chair beside him. He was sitting and the old man was standing, looking like he was coming.
"It's done. I have killed the old Murong family thieves who were ensconced in the Chen family." The old man continued. If the Chen family knew that the Murong family had infiltrated some masters in their family, they would definitely be furious.
Of course, if they knew that this master from the royal palace could kill people in their palace without even being able to get away from Chen Tingnan, they would definitely be shocked.
"Good job." Bai Yan smiled.
"It's just that I don't know why we want to help them?" the old man asked doubtfully. They naturally refer to the Chen family. The palace does not care about the affairs in the world, so why would it suddenly help the Chen family today? He was a little surprised.
"Haha, you don't understand. This is called taking the long term to catch big fish!" Bai Yan chuckled.
