Chapter 223 Only when you are not drunk after a thousand cups can you wake up alone
Chapter 223 Only by drinking a thousand cups and not getting drunk can you wake up alone
By the Shatuo River, a cold breeze blows.
Lin Mo's expression remained motionless. As soon as he loosened his grip, the scholar-like man fell to the ground.
This person should have a high status, his clothes are made of exquisite materials, and he has a purple and green crescent jade pendant on his waist. If he is not mistaken, it should be carved from the rumored dragon fragrant jade.
It is said that the saliva of a mountain animal belonging to the dragon genus drops on the rare jade seed, and then it has the opportunity to be conceived and raised.
In terms of value alone, it is higher than that of a martial artist in the Qi and Blood realm.
"Who are you? Yu Xuanji asked you to come here?"
Lin Mo opened his hands, two jade crystal tubes stood in his palms.
Meanwhile, the restless mother and child insects were happily bumping into each other.
He looked calm and said softly
The scholar in white didn't reply immediately.
His face was a little pale at this time, and he choked from time to time, as if he had eaten some water along the way and was panting heavily.
While covering his shoulders, Zheng looked at Lin Mo with anger and a little fear.
At this time, after Lin Mo died, the Huanglong boat he had spent so much effort to rent was turned upside down, and half of his body was floating on the river, drifting into the distance.
It's probably impossible to save him.
Thinking of this, Huang Daoyuan felt a little regretful in his heart.
He struggled to stand up and took half a step back. His breath calmed down and his eyes became calm. He seemed not afraid of Lin Mo taking action against him again and said in a deep voice:
"Since Overlord knows the mother-in-law bug, he must have guessed my identity. Why did he attack me for no reason?"
"I came here with sincerity and traveled across mountains and rivers to get here, but now I end up in this situation. Although Huang does not dare to be resentful, he is inevitably confused and wants an explanation."
"Oh? Say it." Lin Mo was nearly 2.45 meters tall at this time and could look down at the other person.
"If I really want to explain it, it's that your actions at that time made me unhappy. Is this a good enough reason?"
Huang Daoyuan was suffocated, obviously not expecting that the man in front of him would say such words.
Indeed, at that time, he was riding a boat, riding thousands of miles through the waves, and made some disrespectful actions based on the pride in his heart. But just because of this, he overturned the boat. Is this something an ordinary person can do?
And now that I am being asked about it, I still act as if nothing happened...
This person's free will and unscrupulousness are simply beyond his imagination.
No wonder he dared to directly rebel with his whole family!
"Take out the things." At this time, Lin Mo saw that Huang Daoyuan was silent and was not prepared to say anything, so he said simply.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of his trip was just to get rid of the filth.
As long as he got the thing, he didn't mind sparing the person who served as the messenger.
Huang Daoyuan took a deep look at Lin Mo and said nothing. He turned his hand and a sealed stone box appeared in his hand.
Lin Mo took the stone box.
From the transparent window above, you can see three iron cans inside the box.
"The three bottles of plague are the Green Leaf Plague, the Fire Ghost Plague, and the Death Plague. They are all plagues that have appeared in Huaizhou in the past hundred years.
Among them, even the least dangerous Qingye plague killed hundreds of thousands of people in a county, 80% of the population, I hope you can use it for your own use."
"...This last sentence was said by Mr. Fish himself."
When Huang Daoyuan said this, he looked at the man in front of him and unconsciously added the last sentence.
Because he felt a little weak for no reason.
Lin Mo took a deep breath, nodded, turned his hand, and put the stone box into the empty stone ring.
Plague is something that can only be encountered but cannot be sought. A normal person has neither the strength nor the means to collect it. Originally, he thought he could only rely on luck, but he did not expect that Yu Xuanji collected three types of them at once.
"Do you know where Xuanji is now?"
"Well, Mr. Yu's whereabouts have been uncertain recently. I don't know where he is or what he is doing."
Huang Daoyuan replied softly. In fact, he vaguely knew that Yu Xuanji was currently deep in the Huaitai Mountains, looking for a mountain beast, but he did not say it out loud.
Because during this period of time, he already knew that the prince did not want the person in front of him to have any more entanglements with Yu Xuanji.
To avoid a deeper bond, he chose to hide it.
In fact, the delay in sending the plague for several months was due to his deliberate delay.
If Lin Mo is in urgent need and is procrastinating like this, if he has a bad temper, it would be better not to help.
Lin Mo also sighed at this time.
I thought that if I knew where Yu Xuanji was, I would be able to lend a helping hand if I needed help.
After all, when friends get along, blindly asking for things is not the right way.
"By the way, besides Yu Xuanji, what else do you want you to tell me?" Lin Mo then asked.
Only then did Huang Daoyuan smile.
He gently patted his dusty clothes, arranged his hair, regained some of his arrogance, and said in a deep voice:
"I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Huang Daoyuan, a descendant of the Huang family of Huaiping County. I am now the first guest of the second class in Yuhou Mansion."
"Mr. Yu has already talked about the noble matter in general. He and His Royal Highness are close friends, so it is possible to reverse the originally unforgivable crime.
Speaking of which, the Lin family's rebellion actually had other circumstances. If the siege had not been carried out, given the status of His Highness the Crown Prince, he could have been cleared of charges with just one sentence."
Lin Mo put his hands behind his back and looked at the person in front of him.
"Oh? Now that the matter has come to this, what should we do?" he asked softly.
"It concerns the lives of three Zhou Shengjun commanders. The nature of this matter is so bad that it even reached the Yuhou and the military chief's official documents. It is difficult to expose this matter.
The way the prince came up with is that if the nobles agree, they can implement the strategy of breaking out of the golden cicada and crossing the sea. All it takes is a fire and a few unimportant people, and then you can sit back and relax."
Huang Daoyuan spoke more and more excitedly, sonorously and passionately, and the arrogance on the ship reappeared in his brows and eyes.
Lin Mo said nothing, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of the problem.
Seeing Lin Mo's silence, Huang Daoyuan frowned slightly, and then said: "In such a large clan, I don't believe that everyone will work together. There will always be people who can't deal with you. Leave them behind, so that you can relax in the clan.
It can also help you, Lin, to clear your name, why not?
Lin Junmo, don't blame me for speaking harshly. Although here, you are indeed quite strong and the world is afraid of you, but the world is so big that being dominant in this corner of the world is nothing. There is a half-step master in the Hou Mansion.
There are masters, even great masters, sitting in charge,
I admit that you are quite talented, but think about it, if you were trapped here, how much time would it take to become a truly strong person? Ten years, a hundred years, or even longer?"
"What you mean is that you want me to abandon some of my clan members, hide my name, and work as a dog for others. This is still a gift to me..." Lin Mo sighed, without any fluctuations on his face.
But those glowing golden eyes invisibly put tremendous pressure on people.
Huang Daoyuan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and explained, "There is no need to understand it this way. It is necessary to pay a certain price to be protected by others. As for hiding one's name, it is just a temporary measure.
To abandon some of the tribesmen is to say abandonment, but rather to say that their sacrifices are in exchange for the future glory of your Lin clan.
Think about it, when you break through to become a master a few decades later, and the Lin family becomes a first-level power in the county, spreading its branches and spreading its branches, I think they will know better, and they will not be resentful."
"Interesting, you are indeed very talkative."
Lin Mo said softly.
"That's it, the words have been delivered, you can leave.
And, take that guy over there."
He turned his head and looked towards the woods not far away.
When Huang Daoyuan heard this, he was about to say something when a man in a raincoat slowly walked out of the woods in the distance.
Wearing a bamboo hat on his head, he appeared in steps, walked to Huang Daoyuan's side, took off the bamboo hat, and revealed his rough scarred face.
"I have lived in the county for a long time and have heard the name of the Overlord, so I came here today to pay my respects." The man in coir raincoat said in a deep voice.
"Can Lin disappoint you?" Lin Mo raised his eyes slightly, paying a little attention to the bamboo sword on his waist, and said softly.
The man in the coir raincoat shook his head, "Even if there is no such thing as the overlord blocking the river, you still live up to expectations. Just by your appearance, you can tell that you have a very good capacity for drinking."
"So what if I drink well..." Huang Daoyuan on the side said with a smile.
I feel that even if he flatters me, he will not be able to flatter me.
"Only when you have a good drinker can you drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so that when everyone in the world is drunk, I will be sober." The man in the coir raincoat sighed softly.
"..." Huang Daoyuan looked at Ai Shuyun with a serious face, opened his mouth several times, but couldn't say a word.
"It's interesting." Lin Mo also smiled.
"Help me?"
"It's an honor." The man in coir raincoat was startled and nodded slowly.
Sudden.
Bang!
In an instant, Lin Mo's figure disappeared, and his speed was so fast that a large crater exploded on the spot.
Huang Daoyuan instantly shot out to more than ten meters away.
Sonorous!
At the same place, a chill came over the heart of the man in the coir raincoat, and he drew his sword directly without holding back his hand.
In an instant, a sharp sword light emerged from the bamboo sheath, like a dragon emerging from the sea, with terrifying momentum.
I could only hear the howling wind, but the bone-chilling cold overwhelmed the sound.
For a moment, the sword light actually suppressed the scorching brilliance of the sun.
The razor-sharp edge and strong wind that cut through everything made people feel like they were being cut without even touching the skin.
The essence of blood and energy is the essence of mind.
If someone rushes to kill them, they are already a bit like Gu Yitong's blood bird, and they are faster and more lethal. This is the ultimate attack at the expense of defense.
And if he hadn't burned his blood to make a living, Lin Mo would indeed choose to avoid the edge temporarily and wait for the opportunity.
But at this time...
Lin Mo's expression was calm. Thick Qi and blood rose from the depths of his body, like a flood that broke a bank, rushing around his body. The majestic Tathagata energy rose up from behind the Buddha's body, covering his arms.
The Overlord Gun appears in his hand.
Only with the blessing of mind energy can this object truly reveal its original form.
The explosive Qi and blood burst out, and the majestic energy poured into it.
With the Overlord's Spear horizontally moving, the surrounding air seemed to be distorted by the pressure.
He didn't transform into a half-dragon, nor did he enter a ferocious state, just a normal burst, a powerful strike.
Bang!
The sword light disappeared and the air trembled.
With a muffled sound, invisible ripples exploded.
The strong wind swept around, blowing up sand and gravel and stirring up layers of gray mist.
"Your sword is fine."
After a few breaths, Lin Mo looked at the strong man in the field with his feet stuck on the ground and said softly, "What's your name?"
"Life Sword Hall, Ai Shuyun."
The man in coir raincoat slowly sheathed his sword and replied in a low voice.
At this time, he turned his back, and the bamboo sword in his hand had several spider web-like cracks clinging to it.
His right hand was shaking unconsciously.
"The county government, right? I'll meet you for a drink when I have time," Lin Mo said.
After saying this, he waved his hand.
I saw him kicking away the huge piece of wood before and smashing it into the river. With the momentum, his figure flew up and floated away.
"If the prince doesn't take this person under his command, maybe... he will regret it in the future."
The two of them were standing in the forest, and Ai Shuyun suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean?" Huang Daoyuan's face turned cold, his eyes slightly closed, and he asked in confusion.
"Haha." Ai Shuyun smiled.
"The prince can take the risk of offending the commander of a county for me and keep my family safe. I don't believe that he will be so powerless in this matter."
There is another sentence that is not said. If you really want to recruit someone, you will not just talk about the harm at this time, but the real benefits are empty talk.
You must know that back then, he was also personally hand-pierced by several kendo masters.
Huang Daoyuan's face became colder and colder, and he held back a sentence for a long time:
"I am you, so I should do my own thing. Don't think about things you shouldn't think, and don't say things you shouldn't say. You've already talked a bit too much today."
He was not only referring to what he just said, but also to the conversation he had with Lin Mo when he first appeared on the scene.
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, after taking a few steps, the person behind him made no movement for a long time.
"What are you doing! Ai Shuyun!"
He turned back sharply.
The man in the raincoat behind him was unusually embarrassed and pointed at his two legs stuck on the ground:
"My legs are numb, I have to wait..."
…………
On the other side, Lin Mo was walking in the mountains.
He frowned, there was something he couldn't understand.
At first, he thought that the plague might be of great importance, so the transportation was somewhat difficult and the time was delayed for so long.
But when he came into contact with Huang Daoyuan, his mind changed.
If he was really Yu Xuanji, he would not have been ignorant of his relationship with Yu Xuanji, and he would not have come across the waves in the yellow dragon boat. It was more of a demonstration than a gift.
And that Ai Shuyun.
He held hands and discussed, and figured out his strength along the way.
By comparing it with Gu Yitong, Lian Zhong and others, we can estimate his strength. This person must be in the same realm as the first two.
In terms of combat power alone, it is stronger than Lian Zhong and Gu Yitong.
If he wanted to win it before the breakthrough, perhaps he would only end up with a miserable victory.
Is such a master driven to send gifts?
Lin Mo had a lot of thoughts in his mind and began to think about this series of slightly abnormal situations.
As he thought about it, his speed slowed down, and the noisy mountain beasts around him also stopped shouting.
"This situation can only explain one reason. Yu Xuanji entrusts someone to deliver things, and Huang Daoyuan and the two of them have another person behind them. This person has a good relationship with Yu Xuanji, but seems to be somewhat hostile to me?"
"Jade Marquis..."
Lin Mo suddenly stopped and stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the missing piece of the tree cover above his head.
From it, you can see the light blue sky, like a piece of luxurious glass, dotted with stacks of white clouds.
Everything is so beautiful.
Regardless of whether the guess is correct or not, if you want to face this chaotic situation and gain a firm foothold in troubled times, everything is illusory, and only strength is true.
Now that we have just broken through, no one with real weight has yet come to measure our strength.
However, to be on the safe side, it is best to break through the series of assumptions made before making a decision and complete them first.
