Jiang Qiushan looked up at Hu Huilan and saw that she was wearing gold and silver. She was inevitably embarrassed and lowered her head: "The little girl is from Fu'an Village. Her surname is Jiang and her given name is Qiu Shan."
Hu Chen said: "Director Lin provided money to help Miss Jiang bury her younger brother who died of illness."
Hu Huilan looked at Lin Xiaodong: "Taoist Master Lin is compassionate."
Qiu Qinzhen said: "Lan'er, take Miss Jiang to freshen up and change into nice-looking clothes."
Hu Huilan took Jiang Qiushan's hand and said, "Miss Jiang, come with me."
Hu Chen invited Lin Xiaodong into the hall, had a cup of tea, and the food was ready, filling the table.
Lin Xiaodong said: "Executive member Hu, this is too polite."
Hu Chen said: "Taoist Master Lin is used to being simple in the mountains. This table is really nothing."
Hu Huilan pulled Jiang Qiushan in: "Father, mother, Director Lin, please take a look."
Lin Xiaodong raised his eyes and saw Jiang Qiushan changed into peach pink clothes, her hair was tied in a bun, and she was covered in jewelry. She was evenly matched with Hu Huilan.
Jiang Qiushan's eyes were red and her nose was sore: "Thank you, Miss Hu, I have never worn jewelry in my life..." Hu Huilan waved her hand: "It's for you! I don't wear it all, just don't dislike it!"
Jiang Qiushan said: "How can this be done?"
Hu Huilan pushed Jiang Qiushan onto the chair: "Girls must be pretty!"
Hu Chen nodded: "Miss Jiang is indeed naturally beautiful. Dressing like this makes Taoist Lin really worth spending a thousand taels of silver!"
Jiang Qiushan's face turned red, she lowered her head and stroked her temples, and glanced at Lin Xiaodong.
A few people sat down and Hu Chen picked up a cup: "Thank you, Taoist Master Lin, for saving my wife and daughter. I am grateful."
Lin Xiaodong drank the cup and said, "You don't need to take it to heart, Mr. Hu."
Hu Huilan said: "I also want to drink a glass of wine to Mr. Lin."
Lin Xiaodong drank and said: "Ms. Hu has turned the corner. Please be more careful when going out in the future."
Hu Huilan curled her lips and turned to look at Hu Chen: "Dad, I will never leave the city again."
Hu Chen said: "The people in Lianshan Village are really hateful."
Lin Xiaodong said: "Let's see if they will continue to commit murder and swindle goods in the future."
Jiang Qiushan stood up with a wine glass and said, "Thank you, Taoist Master Lin, for allowing my brother to rest in peace."
Lin Xiaodong said: "If a Taoist cultivator ignores dangers on the road, then he or she is still cultivating the Tao. Miss Jiang, don't worry about it. Please be considerate and accommodating."
The two drank from this cup together.
Jiang Qiushan toasted Hu Chen and Hu Huilan with another drink.
Hu Chen asked: "What are Ms. Jiang's future plans?"
Jiang Qiushan said: "Taoist Lin paid for the burial of my brother. I am Taoist Lin's man. From now on, I will naturally go wherever he goes."
Hu Huilan bit her chopsticks and was stunned.
Lin Xiaodong said: "Miss Jiang, I told you earlier that I paid for the burial of your brother, so you don't have to sell yourself."
Jiang Qiushan shook her head: "How could I break my promise to Daoist Lin?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "I, a Taoist, am alone, leaving Miss Jiang by my side. It will not sound good if it is spread."
Jiang Qiushan said firmly: "I don't care."
Hu Chen said: "Taoist Master Lin is alone on the mountain, deserted, but he needs someone to serve him."
Hu Huilan said: "Miss Jiang, if not, you can stay at my house and keep me company!"
Jiang Qiushan said: "I appreciate Miss Hu's kindness, but I have to repay Taoist Lin's kindness."
Lin Xiaodong thought for a while and said: "Then Miss Jiang can come with me to Qiongchang Mountain and we will arrange where to go in the future."
Hu Chen thought Lin Xiaodong had agreed, so he just said this, nodded and said: "It will be better for Miss Jiang to follow Taoist Lin from now on than to be alone."
Hu Huilan said foolishly: "Taoist Master Lin, you also saved my life, so I should repay you..." After dinner, Lin Xiaodong said goodbye and took Jiang Qiushan back to Qiongchang Mountain.
On the way, Lu Zhenglin came with four guards, Yu Ding, Gong Tingxiang, Huang Tongshi, and Su Xian, in an aggressive manner.
Lu Zhenglin grinned and said: "Lin Xiaodong! You were caught by me!"
Jiang Qiushan was so frightened that she hid behind Lin Xiaodong.
Yu Ding rolled up his sleeves: "You are very brave. You dare to challenge my young master and make him unable to stand down in front of so many people?"
Lu Zhenglin pointed at Jiang Qiushan and shouted: "Hand over that little lady, or I won't break your legs today!"
Lin Xiaodong showed a fierce look in his eyes and stretched out a leg: "I'll give you my leg. Let me see if you dare to hit me."
Lu Zhenglin raised his head and glared: "Okay, I have the guts! Do it!"
Lu Zhenglin had always been domineering, and the guards in the mansion were all desperadoes. Yu Ding and the other four drew their swords and went to greet Lin Xiaodong.
Jiang Qiushan was so frightened that she held her head and screamed, and hid aside.
Lin Xiaodong took out Ci Shen's sword from its scabbard and killed the four of them together with Yu Ding.
Although Yu Ding and others had some punches, they were Lin Xiaodong's opponent. Yu Ding was unprepared. Lin Xiaodong used his sword to slap a red line on his face. His eyes went black and he fell to the ground.
Gong Tingxiang, Huang Tongshi and Su Xian were all stunned.
Lin Xiaodong looked at Lu Zhenglin: "It will be endless fun to subdue a stubborn person like you!"
Lu Zhenglin jumped to his feet: "Hit him!"
Gong Tingxiang and three others came forward. Lin Xiaodongci raised his sword and dropped Gong Tingxiang's long sword. He raised his leg and kicked Gong Tingxiang to the ground.
Huang Tongshi struck with a knife, but Lin Xiaodong dodged, grabbed his wrist and threw him to the ground, causing him to flip over.
When Su Xian saw that he was far from his opponent, he glared and shouted. He raised his sword without cutting, but was slapped on the top by the Cishen Sword, and he lay down.
Lu Zhenglin pointed at the four people on the ground and glared: "You four losers!"
Lin Xiaodong strode towards Lu Zhenglin.
Lu Zhenglin was so frightened that he ran away: "Lin Xiaodong! Just wait for me!"
Lin Xiaodong rolled his eyes and snorted, turned to Jiang Qiushan and said, "Let's go."
Jiang Qiushan was stunned. She never expected that Lin Xiaodong looked so weak but could be so skilled. She couldn't help but blush and her heart beat wildly.
Lin Xiaodong stretched out his hand: "Miss Jiang, give me your hand."
When Jiang Qiushan heard this, her face turned red with embarrassment and she stretched out her hand.
Lin Xiaodong took Jiang Qiushan's wrist, and the two of them swayed and disappeared.
Yu Ding and the four others looked at each other in confusion.
Jiang Qiushan was spinning around. When she came over and took a look, she found that she had arrived in a strange place.
Lin Xiaodong said: "This is where Lin lives temporarily. It is remote in the mountains. Please let Miss Jiang make do with it."
Jiang Qiushan looked around, stared and opened her mouth: "The whole mountain belongs to Daochang Lin?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "This is the mountain gate of Senior Taoist Brother Yu from the Qingrong Sect in Yundong Mountain. You are just letting me stay here temporarily."
Jiang Qiushan felt as if she was in a dream, raised her head and looked at the plaque on Zhixu Guan, and said, "The residence of Master Lin is a hundred times better than my home."
Lin Xiaodong brought Jiang Qiushan in, arranged a place to live, and said: "The room has not been cleaned for a long time. Miss Jiang will rest tonight and will clean it up tomorrow."
Jiang Qiushan bowed and said, "Thank you, Taoist Lin, for taking me in."
Lin Xiaodong didn't say much and went back to his room.
Late at night, a beautiful figure came to the door of Lin Xiaodong's room: "Master Lin, are you asleep?"
