Volume 1: Wind Rises in the Mountains and Swamps Chapter 51: Rescue
Mu Qing'er looked happy and called out, "Uncle Meng——"
The red-clothed man landed steadily. He had a short beard, a leopard head and tiger eyes, a sturdy body, and an imposing manner.
After looking around, the red-clothed man's eyes fell on Mu Qing'er, with a look of pity in his expression, and then he shouted angrily:
"I received a message from my disciples and saw the fireworks here as a warning. Meng happened to be nearby. I was afraid that Qing'er was in danger when she returned to the mountain, so I rushed here in a hurry. It turned out that my good niece was in trouble. Tell uncle, who dares to mess with my niece? I will tear his bones apart!"
There was another burst of horse neighing. Four young men who looked like green-clothed disciples jumped off the four horses behind. With a "swish", they each drew the long sword from their waists, calling out "Junior Sister" and "Junior Sister". In a flash, they surrounded Mu Qing'er with swords, and did not forget to look around covetously.
Jiang Fangdi, Lin Yi and the other four were shocked when they saw this. With such a battle and such majesty, who dares to provoke Mu Qing'er!
The three masters and apprentices of Zhen Yuanzi were calm and could not interrupt for a while.
"Uncle Meng, we will talk about the danger we just encountered later when we return to the mountain. I want to thank these three Taoist priests!"
Mu Qing'er no longer had the arrogance she had used to pester Lin Yishi. She smiled and pulled the red-clothed man towards Zhen Yuanzi and the other two.
"Thanks to the Taoist priests' help, Qing'er was saved!"
"Teng Yunfeng Baiyun Temple Zhen Yuanzi, with his apprentices Yuan Qing and Yuan Feng, came to the Tianlong Sect to pay respects!" Zhen Yuanzi smiled and clasped his fists to the red-clothed man.
The red-clothed man was startled, not daring to be rude, and hurriedly said, "It turned out that the master of Baiyun Temple came and saved all of us in the Tianlong Sect. Please accept my greetings from the Taoist priest!"
After that, he looked respectful and bowed deeply.
Seeing this from a distance, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh secretly. This old Taoist is really good at calculating. He showed up at the right time. With a few words, he got a big favor from the Tianlong Sect. Even if they didn't know why the three masters and apprentices came here, the Tianlong Sect would not refuse for its own reputation.
When the three masters and apprentices left the tea shed, Lin Yi was secretly alert. Along the way, he always had a sense of crisis in his heart. His consciousness covered the area of one mile before and after, and he didn't dare to slack off.
The masked man was discovered by Lin Yi a long time ago. What made him regretful and puzzled was that the three masters and apprentices were also lurking nearby.
Seeing Mu Qing'er in danger just now, Lin Yi couldn't bear it in his heart, but he couldn't show his skills. In desperation, he wanted to take out a small crossbow to rescue her, but he saw the three masters and apprentices running towards the field.
Knowing that something had changed, as expected, this Zhenyuanzi was really a living god, and the red-clothed man, that is, the one called Meng Shan, was grateful. This kind of scheme, or the depth of mind, touched Lin Yi a lot.
"I don't dare to accept Elder Meng's gift. I just happened to be here. This is also because Miss Qing'er is blessed with great fortune, and it is the will of heaven!" Zhen Yuanzi was humble and easy-going, and gently helped Meng Shan up. The latter stood up and said, "The Tianlong Sect has its own explanation for this favor. Please wait a moment, Meng will accompany the Taoist to visit my Jiulong Mountain!"
"Elder Meng, please!" Zhen Yuanzi humbly extended his hand. Yuan Qing and Yuan Feng behind him admired their master's father even more.
Originally, the three masters and apprentices were unhappy because they had no good excuse to visit Mu Tiancheng, but in the blink of an eye, they had become guests of honor of the Tianlong Sect. It's time! It's fate!
Meng Shan gave an order to the four blue-clothed disciples, and they were busy treating the injured escort and steward Mu. Tianlong Sect has its own healing medicine. After a while, the arrow was taken out and the wound was bandaged properly.
Butler Mu was slightly seriously injured, but after applying the medicine externally and internally, he was able to get up and walk. It seems that riding a horse is not a problem. Lin Yi was secretly surprised by the effect of this medicine.
This butler Mu should be an old man of the Mu family. Meng Shan also stepped forward to comfort him and wanted to ask for credit for him. The touched butler Mu's face was glowing, and he was inexplicably excited. This is completely different from the Mu Ye that Lin Yi saw in front of the Lanyue Tower.
How many faces does a person have? Which one is the real one?
"Who are these people?" Meng Shan pointed at Lin Yi and others not far away, with a hint of impatience in his expression.
Mu Qing'er glanced at him sideways, with a look of indifference on her face, and said casually: "These are a few outer disciples sent by Butler Mu"
"Hmph! Such a cowardly person who shrinks back when faced with difficulties is unworthy of training!"
"Who is this——?" Meng Shan had a very bad impression of Lin Yi and others, and turned to point at Jin Ke who was supporting Butler Mu and asked.
"This is also an outer disciple who came with us." Mu Qing'er smiled, probably knowing Jin Ke's identity. Butler Mu was not afraid of danger, so this boy should not be bad!
A woman's ideas do not need to be scrutinized! Because she is a woman, and a princess of the Tianlong Sect!
"This boy is not bad!" Meng Shan thought he had a good eye, and praised Jin Ke.
Jin Ke was surprised and bowed respectfully: "Jin Ke meets Elder Meng!"
It's impressive to be an outer disciple of the Tianlong Sect! It's impressive to get to know the elders of the Tianlong Sect! It's quite impressive to be praised by the elders!
Jin Ke was very happy. He was proud to see Lin Yi and his friends being humiliated, but he felt sorry for Xu Yue.
In the eyes of men, beautiful women do not need to be blamed.
Lin Yi heard it clearly, but he didn't care. There is no need to prove anything, so why do you have to get the appreciation of this elder!
Jiang Fangdi and the other two felt that the red-clothed elder looked at them unkindly, and they were depressed. They didn't know where they had offended the elder.
Sometimes offending someone does not depend on what you did, but on the other person's momentary impulse.
It's just that they didn't know that if Lin Yi hadn't taken care of the friendship between the people who came over the past two days at the last moment and could fall to the ground without dying after being injured, it would have been a lucky ending for them.
Who can tell clearly between gains and losses. While you care about losing, do you care about getting more?
"You guys, please let your horses out." Meng Shan shouted at Lin Yi and others. A few people came over obediently leading their horses.
Meng Shan inspected everyone, pointed at Xu Yue and said, "You girl, come out and ride the horse." He turned and pointed at the Qingyi disciples and said, "Wait for you to walk and take these useless outer disciples back to the mountain gate. Let them make a stretcher. Carry the two bodyguards and go."
After Meng Shan finished explaining, he handed over to Zhen Yuanzi.
The six horses were injured, their blood was flowing all over the ground, and they looked like they were dead. Including the five men riding here from Meng Shan, there were still nine horses left. Including Zhen Yuanzi's master and apprentice, among the eighteen people, two bodyguards had their legs pierced by crossbow arrows, so naturally they could not ride horses. In the end, seven of them had to walk.
After all, Xu Yue is a girl, and Meng Shan is also very attentive. As she rode away, she looked back frequently with a look of shame on her face. Lin Yi smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it was okay.
As for Jin Ke's moral character, Lin Yi didn't even bother to look at it, but he knew that this kid was brimming with pride!
There was a clatter of horseshoes, and the horseman left, while the man on foot stayed in place and looked forward.
"What are you looking at! Brat, go find some strong branches."
A disciple in Tsing Yi felt unhappy when he saw Lin Yi's relaxed look. I am here to rescue the disciples in the sect. How great it is. It coincides with the death of my junior sister. It is a great opportunity that I can't even dream of waiting for. Unexpectedly, before he could show off his skills, he would have to walk back with his disability and a few outer disciples. This didn't make the other brothers laugh out loud.
"Still reading? I'm just telling you, go quickly!"
Lin Yi looked around in panic, only to realize that he had offended someone again. He smiled quickly and said, "Senior brother, I'll go right now."
"Bah - who is your senior brother? If you yell again, I will beat you up."
The Tsing Yi disciple who disliked Lin Yi shouted angrily as if he was being insulted.
this……? Lin Yi scratched his head and wondered, calling him senior brother would offend someone? Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Fangdi hurriedly smiled at the Tsing Yi disciple and pulled Lin Yi away.
Lin turned around and saw Dai Yuanhai also coming over. He asked depressedly: "In this Tianlong Sect, is the title of senior brother a curse?"
When Jiang Fangdi saw that he was farther away from the disciples in Tsing Yi, his face was not good-looking, his expression was gloomy, and he said:
"Brother Lin doesn't know, right? This outer disciple of the Tianlong Sect is very prestigious in the eyes of outsiders. But his status within the sect is really not that good. For example, in the eyes of the inner disciples, you and I are like people from a restaurant. That’s about right, guys. Will they recognize a guy as their senior brother?”
"That's it!" Lin Yi's eyes showed a hint of coldness. He shook his head and then chuckled: "Haha, I understand, it doesn't matter. From now on, you and I will just work on ourselves."
Jiang Fangdi and Dai Yuanhai took it seriously and smiled at Lin Yi.
"However, I don't even have a knife, so it's hard to break this branch!" Jiang Fangdi complained again.
Lin Yi hesitated and said, "I'll get the branches, but can you get the stretcher?"
"Yes! You've been in the escort agency for a long time, these things are nothing." Jiang Fangdi looked at Lin Yi excitedly, his eyes full of expectation.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lin Yi glared.
Jiang Fangdi laughed, and Dai Yuanhai also smiled and shook his head.
"Although Brother Lin is not amazing in appearance, the longer we know each other, the more I feel that there is something extraordinary about Brother Lin, haha!"
Jiang Fangdi patted Lin Yi's shoulder and walked towards a woods.
"Brother Jiang is also extraordinary when he praises people. But besides being a heavy drinker, I also have another one. I would like you two not to publicize it."
Lin Yi looked around the woods, looking for a suitable small tree trunk.
"Brother Dai and I are not talkative people. What else is surprising about Brother Lin?" Jiang Fangdi asked curiously. Dai Yuanhai also looked forward to it.
Lin Yi walked to a small tree, reached out and twisted it, and the small tree was uprooted like a withered tree. He gently spread his hands again, pinched the head and tail. In the blink of an eye, a smooth and straight wooden stick appeared in front of the three of them.
"I'm also very strong, and I'm big enough to scare Jin Ke."
Lin Yi laughed casually and looked at Jiang Fangdi and the two of them. Seeing the two of them staring, the boss's face was full of surprise, mixed with surprise, but there was no trace of pretense in his eyes. He nodded secretly. I remember Mr. Su said that hiding one's strength is to better protect oneself. It is undoubtedly wise to keep a low profile and keep a low profile until the goal is achieved. However, your behavior should not be too abrupt, especially to the people around you. You should not give the impression that you are deliberately hiding your clumsiness, otherwise it will make people more suspicious.
Before Jiang Fangdi and the two could wake up from their surprise, Lin Yi had put a dozen wooden sticks into their hands and said, "Go back, or they will beat them again."
"Haha! I didn't expect Brother Lin to be so witty. This is enough."
Jiang Fangdi and Dai Yuanhai pulled some more thin branches, and the three of them walked back.
