Six days later, the Vermillion Bird Sect ushered in the day of assessment.
Lin Lang also put on a clean white robe, combed his hair, and turned into a handsome young man with eyebrows and sharp eyes. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, almost charming him.
"How is it? Are you fascinated by who I am today?"
Qing'er looked at Lin Lang carefully. She had never noticed before that this guy was quite handsome after cleaning up. Especially after thousands of years of precipitation in the Samsara Mirror, Lin Lang's eyes were now like a pool of lake water, making it invisible.
The bottom is particularly charming.
"It looks like a bitch when you clean it up, but it's still good!"
Qing'er praised Lin Lang for the first time, although it was still sarcastic. But Lin Lang had already gotten used to it. During the days they had been together, the two had long become friends who talked about everything, even if they were hurting each other.
Just like a pair of happy enemies, the quarrel is over.
…
After packing his luggage, Lin Lang arrived early to wait in front of the gate of the Vermillion Bird Sect. Even though he got up early, the situation still exceeded his expectations.
The foot of a huge mountain was already full of people. Most of them were young people who looked young like me. Some of them were even accompanied by their parents, watching other parents explain this to their children with sincerity and sincerity.
Then, Lin Lang couldn't help feeling a little envious, thinking of his parents. He didn't know how sad his parents would be when they learned about his death...
"Dad!! How many times have I told you! I really don't need you to send me any more, go back quickly, go back!"
A girl's voice suddenly attracted Lin Lang.
Following the sound, a 28-year-old girl wearing a fiery red dress was pushing a middle-aged man, and the two were surrounded by dozens of silver-armored guards. This made the young people participating in the assessment,
Unconsciously, a large space was made for them.
The girl's bright eyes and white teeth are charming and charming. The waterfall of green hair is spread on the snow-white shoulders, and the two straight and slender legs under the skirt are shining with luster, making the men around them unconscious when they see it.
gulped a mouthful of saliva.
It's a pity that no one dared to go up and strike up a conversation. Not to mention that her father was still by her side, the dozen or so silver-armored guards alone were enough to show that the girl's identity was not simple.
"Am I worried about my baby girl? I'm not worried about you alone!"
The middle-aged man seems to dote on his daughter very much.
"How about this? Dad goes back first, and you leave four guards behind to ensure your safety?"
"Oh, dad! I'm not a helpless vase! If I encounter danger, I can handle it alone! Besides, who dares to cause trouble in front of the mountain gate of the Suzaku Sect! You can go back without worries!
"
The girl in the red dress pouted, not even leaving the guards or staying.
The middle-aged man remained unmoved and left his daughter alone outside. He was still worried.
"Hahahaha, Uncle Mu! With me accompanying Zhiyuan, you should feel relieved, right?"
Accompanied by a burst of hearty laughter, a young man in gorgeous brocade clothes walked over and bowed slightly to the middle-aged man.
"Uncle Mu, sister Zhiyuan, we haven't seen you for a long time." The young man held a folding fan and smiled slightly, looking like a troubled young master.
"Are you... Luo Hong??"
The middle-aged man frowned and suddenly realized something.
"Brother Yan?"
The girl in the red dress seemed to recognize the identity of the person coming and shouted in surprise.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect Uncle Mu and Sister Zhiyuan to know me. What an honor!"
The young man known as Yan Luohong smiled freely and always gave people a feeling of spring breeze when he talked.
"Show me quickly! You kid has grown so big! Huh? Hahahahaha!"
The middle-aged man looked Yan Luohong up and down, his eyes showing uncontrollable appreciation.
"Zhiyuan, come here quickly! This is Yan Luohong, brother Yan, who you played with when you were a child! Do you still remember?"
The girl in the red dress pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Of course I remember. Although I haven't been with Brother Yan for a short time, he loves me like a real brother."
"Sister Zhiyuan is serious! I didn't expect that a girl would undergo a transformation, and sister Zhiyuan would also transform into a great beauty."
Yan Luohong stared at the girl in the red dress and said seriously, but he did not stay on her body for too long.
"Brother Yan has also become as beautiful as a tree."
The girl in the red dress did not hesitate to express her perfect words.
"Is it possible that nephew Luo Hong is also here to take part in today's assessment of the Vermillion Bird Sect?"
The middle-aged man asked in surprise.
Yan Luohong nodded slightly, which surprised both father and daughter.
"The Suzaku Sect has developed rapidly in recent years and has become a top-notch sect in our Wind and Fire Country. Today, even you, a member of the Wind and Fire Country..."
The middle-aged man suddenly paused mid-sentence, and changed his words with some taboo: "I didn't expect that even nephew Luo Hong would become a disciple of Zhuque. It seems that Zhiyuan's choice was right. But with nephew Luo Hong's talent
, it shouldn’t be difficult to go to the Chaotian Sword Sect, so why would you want to come and join the Suzaku Sect?”
The Chaotian Sword Sect mentioned by the middle-aged man is the truly No. 1 transcendental sect in the Wind and Fire Kingdom. Although the Suzaku Sect has developed rapidly in recent years, it can only be ranked among the top five in the Wind and Fire Kingdom.
There is still a big gap.
Yan Luohong laughed, suddenly bowed slightly, and whispered in the middle-aged man's ear, "Uncle Mu, please don't underestimate the current Suzaku Sect. The benefits of joining it are even greater than that of the Chaotian Sword Sect!"
The pupils of the middle-aged man's eyes shrank. Is there any great secret behind the Suzaku Sect? Could it be related to the Emperor of Heaven?
Thinking of this, the middle-aged man doesn't feel strange. After all, it is a sect that has trained the Emperor of Heaven. It is normal for there to be some unknown background behind it. It seems that it is right to let his daughter worship Suzaku.
"Hehehehe. Nephew Luohong, I feel relieved now that you are by Zhiyuan's side. After you and Zhiyuan pass the exam today, you can come to my house to have a drink with me to celebrate!
"
The middle-aged man seemed to be sure that the two of them would be married to Suzaku, and he immediately started preparing for the celebration banquet in the evening.
"must!"
Yan Luohong slightly arched his hands.
The middle-aged man told the girl in the red skirt a few more words before leading the guards away.
The girl in the red dress also stood with Yan Luohong, like a pair of golden boys and girls, attracting countless curious eyes.
Lin Lang just stared at the girl in the red dress, feeling like he had seen her before somewhere.
Where have you seen it before...
While he was concentrating on thinking, Lin Lang noticed a short man with light steps approaching the girl in the red dress and Yan Luohong.
As he approached, he glanced around, with a sly look on his face.
The man put his hands behind his head and whistled in his mouth, trying to appear more natural.
The moment he approached the girl in the red dress, the man took action. His right hand instantly reached out and yanked off the purse hanging from the girl's waist. Before the girl in the red dress could react, he hid aside.
Went into the crowd.
"Ah!! My money bag!!"
The girl in the red dress felt a pull, and then she looked at her waist, and saw that the money bag originally hanging there had disappeared without a trace. When she looked up to look for the thief, she was surrounded by crowds, making it difficult to find him.
"Um?"
Yan Luohong frowned. Someone dared to steal something under his nose. How audacious!
But there are so many people now, and there is nothing we can do.
The successful man grabbed the money bag and smiled proudly.
"Hey, you are so high-profile! So what if the daughter of the city lord of Crescent City was stolen by me?"
The thief had long recognized the identity of the girl in the red dress. She was Mu Zhiyuan, the daughter of the lord of Crescent City Mu Hengtian, so he stared at the money bag around her waist for a long time.
When Mu Hengtian and the guards left, he immediately took action and succeeded with one blow.
Anyway, he didn't plan to take the test when he came here. He just wanted to take advantage of the crowd to steal something, but he didn't expect to catch a big fish.
Just when the man put away his money bag and wanted to run away, a white shadow suddenly appeared in front of him. It was Lin Lang who had been staring at Mu Zhiyuan just now.
"Hand it over."
Lin Lang crossed his arms across his chest and stared at the thief calmly. Since he had seen it all, he couldn't just sit back and watch.
"Hand it over? Hand it over what? I don't know what you are talking about!"
The man's eyes kept evading, but he secretly said something bad in his heart!
I didn’t expect that someone would find out that I was acting so low-key. And I deliberately walked around in the crowd several times. How did this guy target me?
"Of course it's the lady's purse just now. I saw it. I counted three times..."
While Lin Lang was still talking, the man suddenly turned around and ran away.
"Damn it, why did you meet such a plague god halfway!"
The man was cursing while running. Although the boy blocking the road looked weak, now was not the time to confront him. If Mu Zhiyuan was provoked, he would not be able to walk away without any consequences.
The man was thinking in his mind. Before he could run a few steps, he felt that his shoulders were clamped by a powerful force. No matter how hard he stepped, he could not move forward at all!
Turning around, he saw that it was the young man in white robe who had just blocked the road. His right hand seemed to be grabbing his shoulder casually, but the force coming from it was ridiculously strong.
It’s over, we’ve hit a rough patch!
The man's heart felt cold and he could only surrender obediently and handed the money bag in his arms into Lin Lang's hands.
After hearing the news, the girl in the red dress and Yan Luohong saw Lin Lang holding a person with a money bag in his hand, and they roughly understood what was going on.
"Here, your purse."
Before Lin Lang let go of the thief with one hand, he handed the money bag to the girl in the red dress with the other hand.
The girl in the red dress stared closely at Lin Lang. The young man in front of her didn't look very strong, but he could easily subdue the thief.
His angular face exudes a warm youthful temperament, and his pair of deep eyes make it difficult to guess what he is thinking.
What a mysterious boy!
The girl in the red dress felt her heartstrings touched inexplicably, and his voice seemed a little familiar.
Is this the feeling of falling in love at first sight?
"Thank you so much... for this young man!"
The heart of the girl in the red dress couldn't help but beat a little faster. Just when she was about to reach out and take the money bag, Yan Luohong's eyes moved slightly and he stood between the two of them and took the money bag.
"Hahaha! Thank you so much, brother! Sister Zhiyuan and I are worried about not finding this thief! Fortunately, a generous and righteous person like Xiongtai came to help, otherwise I would have lost sister Zhiyuan's purse.
It’s hard to explain to Uncle Mu.”
Yan Luohong seemed to blame himself when he said this, and his words also brought his relationship with the girl in the red skirt to a very close state.
Lin Lang raised his eyebrows, and he could roughly guess that this Yan Luohong was really a very possessive person and did not want the girl in the red skirt to have any contact with other men.
"You're welcome! Now that I've seen this little thief, I can't just sit back and do nothing. I must remember to put the money bag away this time."
Lin Lang persuaded him kindly, and then handed the captured little thief into the hands of Yan Luohong, unwilling to get too involved with these two people.
"Haha, definitely!"
Yan Luohong thanked Lin Lang and prepared to take the thief back.
But the girl in the red dress on the side suddenly interjected: "Can you tell me your name?"
Lin Lang was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "Lin Lang."
The girl in the red dress arched her eyebrows, smiled and nodded.
"My name is Mu Zhiyuan. Thank you very much this time. There is something very important to me in the wallet."
"Easy to do."
Lin Lang secretly noted the name in his mind and responded to the girl's gratitude.
"Sister Zhiyuan, we have to escort this thief back to Crescent City quickly, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the assessment soon."
Yan Luohong stood up deliberately again, and Mu Zhiyuan nodded slightly and walked towards Crescent City with Yan Luohong.
"Lin Lang, see you soon! I hope you can pass the assessment smoothly!"
Mu Zhiyuan didn't forget to wave before leaving, looking a little reluctant to leave.
Lin Lang took a long breath. It felt good to help others, but before Yan Luohong left, the look he gave him was really uncomfortable.
It was as if he was warning himself to stay away from Mu Zhiyuan.
This person is really interesting. I have just met Mingming and Mu Zhiyuan, so why should I be so wary?
Lin Lang shook his head helplessly. His nose suddenly sniffed lightly, and a familiar fragrance penetrated the tip of his nose.
"This smell is..."
Lin Lang was somewhat familiar with this smell. It seemed to be the smell left by Mu Zhiyuan just now.
"It seems that you and this girl are really destined. You can catch a thief and bump into her."
Qing'er suddenly joked.
"Destined? Have I seen her before?" Lin Lang frowned. No wonder he was familiar with the smell of her body.
"Of course I've seen it!"
Qing'er smiled mysteriously.
"Not only have you seen it, but you've also touched and smelled other people's dirty clothes! Geez!"
Lin Lang immediately reacted with his chin lifted.
It turned out that Mu Zhiyuan was the girl in the red dress that he met when he was stealing clothes that day! And the middle-aged man just now, if he guessed correctly, should be the lord of Crescent City.
No wonder I always feel like I've seen her somewhere before, and the smell on her body is somewhat familiar.
"This, this, this! She won't recognize me! I even told her my name!"
Lin Lang suddenly panicked. Thinking of Mu Zhiyuan's strange reaction before, he must have recognized himself!
"I don't think so."
"Then how could she be so polite and specifically want to know my name??"
"So you are an idiot and a piece of wood!" Qing'er in the mirror world rolled her eyes, not knowing what to do to save Lin Lang's elm head.
