"It is not convenient for the news of my father's illness to spread to the outside world and let too many people know about it, so we came here to look for medicine this time in secret. The excuse was that we came here to conduct a family transaction."
"The large cart outside the cave contains the materials for the transaction. Although it is a covert act, the goods loaded on it are all real objects. This way it can be hidden from the detection of interested parties."
"There are too many supplies on the cart. It is difficult to put them in the storage bag and find a place to put them down. I can only carry them with me as a cover. Although the mountain road is difficult, there is no better way."
Ling Yingying raised her eyes and glanced at Fei Daqiang and Zhang Yiming, and continued to speak frankly: "We haven't found the Lingbingqing Shencao. The only way now is to find help from experts with strong spiritual consciousness. Maybe there is a chance to cure my father's strange disease.
.”
"Sima Yi, your two companions, Fei Daqiang and Zhang Yiming, are both masters of powerful spiritual consciousness, so I am tempted to invite you to my house to help my father see whether it is successful or not.
Hope! No matter what, I will thank you, you will be the most noble friends of our Ling family."
Ling Yingying felt that if Lin Yi really agreed to help, it would be best to speak openly and honestly, so she told everything about the Ling family.
In fact, when she learned that Lin Yi was an alchemist, she had already thought about asking Lin Yi for help. This was a typical behavior of seeking medical treatment in a hurry.
However, after Ling Yingying heard that Lin Yi taught some basic knowledge, she felt that Lin Yi might not be a powerful alchemist, so she did not invite her immediately.
After all, it was Lin Yi who was too young that made Ling Yingying look down on him.
If Lin Yi had gray beard and hair, even if he was just teaching some basic knowledge, Ling Yingying might feel that she was meeting a master.
What happened later became very clear. After learning that Lin Yi's two subordinates were masters of spiritual consciousness, Ling Yingying lowered her posture and took the initiative to invite. Even if she was rejected, she was not discouraged. She really felt that this was her last hope.
Masters of spiritual knowledge are rare but hard to come by!
Even though Ling Yingying did not witness Fei Daqiang's two spiritual methods with her own eyes, killing dozens of dark ice beetles in one fell swoop was enough to illustrate the problem.
"That's it! I don't know if I can help, but since I'm going to visit, there's nothing wrong with checking in. But don't count too much on them."
Lin Yi blinked. What this meant was that he should be more reliable than Fei Daqiang and the others. You don't have to count too much on these two guys.
As a result, Ling Yingying obviously misunderstood and thought Lin Yi was being modest.
So Ling Yingying praised the two of them for how good they were, and said it didn't matter if there was nothing they could do. She wouldn't blame them, so there was no need to feel pressure.
All in all, this matter was settled. The biggest stone in Ling Yingying's heart fell to the ground, and she suddenly felt much more relaxed.
"Ling Yingying, as I mentioned just now, your Ling family is one of the top families in the Aochen Titled Empire, right? If that's the case, why are you still worried about your father's condition being leaked?"
Lin Yi casually asked about the situation of the Ling family. It was just a casual chat and he didn't want to find out any information. He was just out of curiosity.
Ling Yingying's guard leader, the big man, has returned here. Hearing Lin Yi's words, he rushed to say: "Our Ling family is definitely one of the top families in the Aochen Titled Empire. I can't say that it must be second to none.
That’s one of the best.”
"It's just that the master is concerned about the safety of the family. In order to avoid unnecessary chaos in the family, it is necessary to keep it secret for the time being. External enemies... may not dare to take the opportunity to cause trouble!"
The big man was very proud when he spoke, as if he was proud of being a member of the Ling family. This shows that what he said was absolutely correct, at least in his heart.
"Okay, just stop saying a few words and step back!"
Ling Yingying didn't seem to want to talk more about the Ling family. She waved the big man away, then turned to look at Lin Yi: "Actually, what we say about our Ling family is always biased. If you have a chance in the future, you might as well say
Ask around in the Aochen Titled Empire, and you may be able to hear the most authentic answer."
This is low-key, but also confident. Lin Yi is confident that when he inquires outside, he can hear the true status and power of the Ling family.
At the same time, Ling Yingying is also a little cryptic. After all, the real situation of the Ling family is not as good as the big man thought!
It can be said that there are not many internal worries, after all, the branches of the Ling family do not dare to make mistakes.
Pressure always comes from outside.
Lin Yi smiled and shrugged, and did not continue the topic. It seemed that Ling Yingying was a relatively low-key person, but the big man was not as low-key as Ling Yingying.
The big man has mentioned before that the Ling family is a being in the Aochen Titled Empire, and even the master of the Martial Alliance Hall has to give face to it, which is amazing.
Lin Yi didn't care much about this. If he really wanted to reveal his identity, he didn't need to give Ao Chen the title of Imperial Martial Alliance Hall Master to save face. The gap between the two sides can be seen from this.
Skipping the topic of the Ling family, Lin Yi didn't want to talk about his own topic, so the two sides chatted about anecdotes from all over the world, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After eating, drinking, and chatting happily, everyone went to rest and had a quiet night!
"The snow has stopped!"
The next day, the Ling family's guards were outside the cave shouting excitedly early in the morning.
Lin Yi also led people out of the cave, feeling relaxed and happy.
The cold wind blew by, rolling up some snow foam. After the blizzard, the sky was clear and blue. Looking around, the sky and the earth were covered in silver, and under the sunlight, they shone slightly.
“What a beautiful day!”
Lin Yi stretched out his body, took a deep breath of the cold air, and felt his chest open. After all, so many people had been hiding in the cave for two days, and they were very suffocated.
"Sima Yi, let's go down the mountain quickly. It's rare to have good weather. If we delay it, there might be another snowstorm. The climate in this area has never been very good."
Ling Yingying followed out, asking Lin Yi for advice while already waving to her men to organize the convoy and prepare to go down the mountain.
"Okay, we've been trapped by the snowstorm for two days, we can't delay any longer!"
Lin Yi nodded in agreement. As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Yingying could not wait to go down the mountain.
"Since you are very pressed for time, let's not delay any more. Let's go down the mountain lightly and leave the convoy to others to handle!"
Ling Yingying was afraid that something would happen and Lin Yi would regret it again, so she took eight guards to go down the mountain first. The remaining people were in charge of the convoy and slowly came down the mountain road.
It is very difficult for the convoy to walk on the mountain road, especially after a heavy snowstorm, when the mountain road is blocked by ice, making it even more difficult. Going down the mountain together will waste time.
