Xingtong is not a murderous person. The reason why he issued the killing order to the Ba Dao Alliance was to vent his anger on Lin Chen and to scare the monkeys.
Without Yunzhou, their journey was slowed down. They didn't know how many cats and dogs would jump out to block the road along the way, so some deterrence measures were still necessary.
Judging from the reactions of several people, Lin Chen probably guessed the meaning of the killing order, but he didn't say anything. Although he didn't know how many people would die as a result, sometimes he shouldn't be too merciful to his enemies.
He also understood why Xingtong did this. If he wanted to blame it, he would blame the Ba Dao Meng for provoking the wrong people. He didn't know if Tianji Pavilion could protect them. He believed that Tianji Pavilion should know how to choose.
Xiaoman started making arrangements without saying anything.
In a sense, the ground is indeed safer than the air. Lihentian's eyes are spread throughout the Eastern Region. In terms of intelligence organization, even Tianji Pavilion is slightly inferior to Lihentian.
Lihentian can control first-hand information at any time to avoid risks. Although there will definitely be variables that cannot be guaranteed to be completely avoided, it is still possible to avoid the most important and minimize the light. Moreover, there are many uncertain factors in the air.
So relatively speaking, it will be safer on the ground, but there are pros and cons. This will delay the trip and give some people more opportunities.
In the afternoon, a group of people came to a small town and found the only inn in the town. The reason why they chose the small town instead of the big city was because a few people might have to stay for several days, and it was easier to get there because there were many people in the big city.
People are causing trouble, and the town is relatively better off.
This inn is not big. The owner of the inn is an old man with a granddaughter. He seems to be living a little hard life. The town is so big, how can there be a decent inn?
Naturally, the young master of the Weapon Refining Sect takes care of things like paying the bills.
Luo Yu paid the room fee for a few days. Xingtong glanced at him and took a bag of gold coins from him and threw it to the boss without seeing any movement from her.
The boss had never seen so much money before, and he refused to accept it at all, but Xing Tong forcefully gave it to him, and then touched the little girl's head. He seemed to like the little girl very much.
Luo Yu said with a bitter look on his face: "Xingtong, is this too much?"
Xing Tong only said one sentence: "You also care about this little money?"
Indeed, as the young master of the Weapon Refining Sect, Luo Yu didn't care about a lot of spiritual stones, so how could he care about this little gold coin.
Luo Yu was helpless. In fact, it was not that he didn't care. He had money, but it depended on how he would use it. Living in a store like this and using so many gold coins was completely inconsistent with his consumption philosophy.
Lin Chen knew in his heart that Xingtong saw that it was not easy for the old man to take care of his granddaughter alone, so he wanted to help him. Is this considered robbing the rich to give to the poor? From this point of view, she, a saint from Lihentian, is quite warm-hearted.
.
The old man naturally understood the little girl's kindness, and was moved to tears for a moment.
"Old man, please buy your granddaughter more things to replenish her body as she grows older."
The old man said yes again and again and thanked Xingtong endlessly.
The little girl also said in a slightly childish accent: "Sister, you are a good person."
Lin Chen also thinks Xingtong is a good person, although different people may have different understandings of what a good person is.
When Luo Yu saw this scene, he no longer had the grimace he had just now. He felt that the money was well spent. Even the expression on Nangong Han's face, who had always been a bit aloof, became warmer. People would be
Assimilated.
Xingtong touched the little girl's head again: "Sister is not a good person."
Perhaps in the hearts of ordinary people, they are no longer purely good people when their hands are stained with blood, but people at different levels have different ways of survival. No matter which way of survival they are, they are all for survival.
The little girl said firmly: "No, my sister is a good person."
To a little girl, whoever treats her well may be a good person. Of course, in the eyes of an old man, Xingtong also meets the standards of a good person.
It was getting close to evening, and the old man prepared a table of dishes, which might be considered the most sumptuous meal for him. When the food was served, the old man invited several people to eat together, saying that they were dining together, but at first the old man
If she doesn't want to sit down, the little girl won't be allowed to sit at the table.
Lin Chen knew that this was a way for the old man to express his gratitude, but in the old man's opinion, these people were all wealthy and powerful people, and he was not suitable to dine with them because of his status.
The little girl looked at the sumptuous dishes on the table eagerly, but she was still obedient and did not join in.
"Little sister, come here."
Xingtong waved to the little girl.
The little girl looked at her grandfather and saw that he had no objection, so she walked over cautiously.
Xingtong called the little girl to her side and glanced at Luo Yu again.
Luo Yu was such a thief, how could he not understand what Xingtong meant, so he forced the old man to sit down too.
The old man didn't have any airs when meeting a few people and slowly relaxed.
The one who had the most fun during this meal was the little girl. Children don’t have much to think about, so she is probably the one who is most easily satisfied.
A few people stayed in this small but cozy shop.
In the evening, Xing Tong came to Lin Chen's room, handed him a pill, then sat down and looked at him.
This time it's not a pill to improve your cultivation, but a healing potion.
In fact, even if you don't monitor me like this, you won't be lazy, Lin Chen thought to himself, because he also wants to recover from the injury as soon as possible, who knows when the danger will come.
But he couldn't drive her away. After all, everything Xingtong did was for his own good. Moreover, even though Xingtong was watching from the side, he didn't feel unnatural. This may also be the reason why Xingtong felt close to him. Everything
It's all so natural, as if it's the way it should be.
Lin Chen had no choice but to take the healing medicine in front of Xingtong, and then used the true essence to catalyze the medicine's power.
This time the absorption is much faster than that of Zhuyuan Pill. After all, Zhuyuan Pill is a pill that can increase cultivation, while healing medicine is essentially just a medicine, but it is more effective than ordinary medicines in treating injuries.
"Don't be sneaky, just come in and take a look."
Xingtong suddenly said to the door.
Lin Chen also looked towards the door.
Then, Luo Yu opened the door and walked in. He said a little embarrassedly: "I knew I couldn't hide it from Sister Xingtong. In fact, I came to see how Brother Lin was recovering from his injury."
Luo Yu would not say that he wanted to see if the two of them were practicing together.
Because Xiaoman stayed on guard all night last night and didn't take a day off today, so he went to bed early and didn't stay at the door. He finally caught the opportunity, how could he miss it.
As he spoke, he pretended to look at Lin Chen and said, "Well, it looks like his complexion has improved a lot. He should be fully recovered in two days at most."
Lin Chen coughed twice and said, "Thank you, Brother Luo, for your concern."
Luo Yu chuckled and said, "Brother Lin, you're welcome."
Xingtong looked at Luo Yu and said, "Have you finished reading?"
Luo Yu was stunned: "I've finished reading."
"Well, you can chat and I won't disturb you."
After saying that, before Lin Chen could say anything, he turned around and walked out, closing the door thoughtfully.
Lin Chen was speechless, did he look like he was visiting a patient?
When passing by Nangong Han's room, Luo Yu saw Nangong Han holding a sword in his arms and leaning against the wall, looking like a hero.
"Brother Nangong, you haven't slept yet."
Nangong Han glanced at him: "Has he been discovered?"
Luo Yu chuckled and said, "I know you want to see it too, but I'm just sorry."
"boring."
Nangong Han said coldly.
Luo Yu stretched out and laughed: "Then you can continue to be bored, I won't accompany you anymore."
