"Madam, you are a great talent." Both old ladies showed admiration. "But what should I do with Su Rou?"
"It doesn't matter, I will take care of it myself." The woman seemed to have everything under control.
"Madam." Suddenly, a maid came running from the bridge in the courtyard in the distance. She hurried over and said the first thing she said.
"Madam! That Honghua said she won't stay for many days and will leave soon. Now she also says she wants to rest in seclusion and asks people not to disturb her even for meals."
"You really refused?" The woman paused for a moment, and then she thought, "I'll go and see for myself." "Madam, you want to go and see for yourself? But, with Madam's natural ability, she will be able to do it." The old woman almost stopped talking.
, quickly cover your mouth.
"Let's go, let's go together." The woman said calmly.
A large group of people left the main courtyard and followed the corridor towards the other courtyards.
Not long after, we arrived in front of the courtyard where Lin Xin lived.
An old woman stepped forward and was about to knock on the door, when suddenly the noble woman's expression changed.
"etc."
She stopped the person who was about to knock on the door, and seemed to notice something. A silver symbol between her eyebrows flashed away.
Immediately when he looked at this other courtyard, his expression was somewhat different.
After a short pause, she returned to her previous calm demeanor and signaled her servants to knock on the door.
*******************
Lin Xin was playing with the herring lantern in his room when he heard a cry from outside.
"Sir, my cousin is here!"
"kindness?"
He frowned slightly. After all, he was staying here, in someone else's house, and the owner came in person, so it was hard not to come out and meet him.
Putting away the herring lantern, he pushed open the door and went out. He saw a small group of people had entered the yard, and a few strong men were protecting the women and old ladies in the middle.
One of the women was surrounded by everyone like stars holding the moon. She was full of nobility. Her moon-white dress just reached the floor, and a string of small black pearl necklaces hung around her neck. Her long hair reached her shoulders, and she was also tied with a slender silver necklace.
Headband.
"Are you Mr. Honghua?" The woman was very polite, which was completely different from the condescending manner she used when delivering the message. "I haven't come to see you for many days. I'm really rude."
"You're welcome, Miss Cousin. I'm the one here. I've been here for several days and haven't had time to meet the master yet. I should be the one to be rude."
Lin Xin said politely.
The two exchanged pleasantries and introduced themselves, and Lin Xin also learned that this woman was the de facto leader of the Ma family. She looked young, but was actually Huang Yuqing, who was in her fifties. She is now the Ma family.
The first wife of Ma Yan, the commander of the main city guard.
Mother is more valuable than son. Huang Yuqing gave birth to a daughter. She was practicing at the strongest Kunlin sword sect nearby. She was extremely talented, and with the resources provided by the government, she came here to ask Lin Xin to be the boss of her daughter.
position.
"Anyway, sir, there is no good place to go for the time being. Why don't you accompany me, Xuan'er, to the Sword Sect first. After joining the sect, it will be easier to understand the customs and customs of my Zhongfu. If you want to stay or leave in the future, it's up to you."
Huang Yuqing's attitude was very low, which was completely different from his previous attitude.
Not only Lin Xin was a little surprised, but also the group of people who came with the woman looked at each other, wondering why her attitude suddenly changed so drastically.
Lin Xin really didn't have anywhere to go at this time, but he felt that this woman really spoke beautifully.
After all, he is a native of Nanfu. He is not familiar with this place and has no identity. After reading the government records in the past few days, he has understood that if there is no way to lead here and wants to leave the local area, it is illegal and the government will automatically take him.
Defined as wanted criminals and rioters.
But if you have a clear identity or a road guide, you can walk freely.
The government here is so huge that even the monks have jurisdiction over it.
He thought about it and suddenly remembered that he had another identity, that is, a senior member of the Guangyao Society.
It just so happens that the real headquarters of the Shining Society is actually in Zhongfu, and most of them are distributed in various major sects. Unfortunately, there are no contact tools. It is a bit troublesome to contact the Shining Club branch here.
He glanced at Huang Yuqing, maybe it would be a good choice to settle down here temporarily.
"I wonder what level of cultivation Madam's daughter is now?"
"I don't know about the cultivation level, but when I came back the year before last, I was already in the dust state."
Transformation realm?
Lin Xin had never heard of the division of realms here and frowned.
"Kunlin Sword Sect is a pure magical sword sect that mainly focuses on practicing swordsmanship and magical powers. I don't know much about the rest." Huang Yuqing gave a brief introduction.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Xin also agreed to Huang Yuqing, just in time to see what the martial arts practice world here is like in an open and honest manner. When Xuan'er comes back and meets, if both parties still agree, then this job will be done.
.
But the condition is that he needs a clean identity, has been registered with the government, and must provide the best possible way to get there.
The treatment is that you can also get the qualification to accompany Kunlin Sword Sect to practice, but you can't learn the sword manual, and you can enjoy the other benefits at the same time.
In addition, Ma Mansion also sends some fixed amounts of jade coins and elixirs every month.
Lin Xin had nothing to do anyway, so he simply changed his identity to see what was different about the Zhongfu sect.
He has completed the foundation of the Dragon King Dao, and now relies on the herring lantern to suppress the decay of his body. After understanding the rules and forces here, he will have to think of a solution.
Until a solution is found, temporarily hiding one's name can be considered a solution. As for the West Pole, it is natural to resolve the physical hazards first, and everything else must be put behind.
The two agreed on the terms and discussed the details.
A few days later, Ma Yuan and his daughter visited again to visit Lin Xin, who had been staying in Ma Mansion for more than a week.
At the same time, the Ma Mansion began to be decorated with lanterns and decorations, and the future star of the manor, Ma Jingxuan, returned.
*********************
The main courtyard was bustling with activity and there was a constant flow of cars and people.
Lin Xin's side was unusually quiet in comparison.
He held a Lotus Sutra in one hand and recited it silently, standing with his hands behind his back in a corner of the yard where the sun could not reach him.
As he continued to recite Buddhist scriptures, Lin Xin clearly felt that numbness and pain gradually began to return to areas in his body that had lost consciousness.
The herring lamp continuously releases a touch of warmth in the heart.
He has also figured out in the past few days that the herring lamp will only react when Buddhist scriptures are recited. The rest of the time, it is almost no different from ordinary gems.
Boom, boom, boom.
Suddenly there was a knock on the courtyard door.
"Mr. Honghua, Miss Xuanxuan is here to visit."
The voice of Xiaodie, the maid specially assigned to serve him, came from outside.
"Please come in." Lin Xin put down the book and looked at the courtyard door. He had already felt the other party as soon as he arrived in front of the door.
The courtyard door was slowly pushed open, and several beautiful women in brocade clothes walked in one after another.
They all looked to be in their mid-twenties. Another person came in quickly behind these women. This person had a slender long sword on his back, white boots, and a dark cloak wrapped around his body.
The most important thing is that this person is also a woman, not tall, but surprisingly fat. She was supposed to be dressed like a heroic lady, but now she looks like a ball of flesh.
As soon as they came in, the eyes of several women quickly focused on Lin Xin.
The fat girl in the cloak observed Lin Xinlai carefully and secretly.
"Mr. Honghua, this is Ma Jingxuan. If you don't have any objections, we can rush to the Sword Sect together from tomorrow."
"Are you Ma Jingxuan?" Lin Xin glanced around, not believing that the fat girl was her. He glanced at several beautiful women again, but he couldn't feel the aura or internal energy fluctuations, but because of the fat girl,
There was no movement on his body, and he couldn't tell who it was.
The fat girl's eyes were calm.
"Sir, you don't have to look, I am Ma Jingxuan."
""
When Lin Xin heard the voice, he still didn't want to believe that the fat ball in front of him was Ma Jingxuan, the daughter of Huang Yuqing, the beautiful woman. He glanced at the other people again, and finally felt nothing.
Somewhat unwillingly, it fell on the fat girl.
"Many people say that I don't look like my mother at all, but look exactly like my father." Ma Jingxuan seemed to have seen a lot and explained calmly.
"Huh, another one who judges people by their appearance! With Xuanxuan's talent and intelligence, when she soars into the sky, she will definitely impress all those who look down on her!" A beautiful woman said unfairly, but she felt that the flattery was a bit false.
Lin Xin was also helpless.
This was the first time he had seen martial arts practitioners who were as obese as Ma Jingxuan and could be called extremely talented.
"My husband must have noticed that I am not a genius. It was just that my master chose me because of my perseverance." Ma Jingxuan remained extremely calm.
"This is the first time I've seen such a plump martial arts practitioner like this girl." Lin Xin also answered honestly. This little girl is so open-minded and frank. He, an older man, is still obsessed with appearance, which makes him a little hard to see through.
.
"Sir, you're welcome. I don't know why. No matter how much I exercise and consume, I keep gaining weight. It was fine when I was a kid and it was relatively balanced, but now it's getting more and more and I can't control it at all." Ma Jingxuan sighed.
.
"Have you ever seen a medical practitioner?"
"After reading a lot, I can't find the reason." Ma Jingxuan's brows showed a trace of sadness. After all, he is just a young man in his twenties. No matter how mature he is, there is still a time when his natural nature is revealed.
For a while, Lin Xin didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only tell some inspirational examples and stories casually, trying to improve the atmosphere.
Ma Jingxuan, however, seemed to recover faster than him, and soon began to discuss with a calm expression what might be needed on the road, including the specific route and precautions.
While listening, Lin Xin vaguely heard some clues. Unlike others, he had stayed in the sect for a long time and was very familiar with the various recording systems and understood many of the details.
At this time, when he heard Ma Jingxuan talk about what he wanted to do when he arrived at the Sword Sect, he felt that Ma Jingxuan was probably not a genius as the Ma family said, but just an ordinary formal disciple, nothing more than that.
