After The Unsuccessful Search

"The gentleman has an elegant temperament, and his speech and demeanor are very extraordinary. He must be a talented student somewhere, or he may have a fame--"

"The shopkeeper's this is an overwhelming reputation, and it's just a scholar who has fallen out of the rankings. It is not very different from the shopkeeper's."

Lin Tianlu smiled and raised the porcelain cup, and touched it: "Now it's just a follow-up The family members and traveling companions returned to the hometown together. This is the way to go."

"This is really..."

The shopkeeper hearing this suddenly showed a bit of regret: "Sir, wait. It’s a shame to be talented."

"It’s nothing. Naturally, there are better students in this world, and there is indeed a lack of interest in official careers. If you really become an official, , I am afraid that I will be burnt."

Seeing the look on his face as indifferent as before, and his eyes clear, shopkeeper suddenly felt a little admiration, and sighed, "Mr.

If he were himself, he couldn't resist the temptation to be an official.

Why not say that there are thousands of students in this world, how many people do not study poetry for the sake of becoming an official?

It is able to let go of these fame and fortune at will. The transcendence alone is enough to make overwhelming majority scholars ashamed of being inferior.

Lin Tianlu refilled himself with a drink, lightly said with a smile: "For me, it is really meaningless to have fame and fortune. Although it is thanks to the care of the woman, I do have A relatively stable living environment, no other extravagant requirements."

"Mr. is so handsome and personable, he is naturally favored by women."

Shopkeeper's eyes drifted towards In front of the Inn, one could vaguely see a slender silhouette hugging the long sword, Qiao Li was speechless, unshakable in the night breeze.

"But that girl is..."

"Maybe I am worried that there will be bandits running around in this corner, so I can help you take a look." Lin Tianlu smiled helplessly: "Although she was asked to take a good night's rest, we had been attacked in the nearby Anshi County before. She didn't dare to relax her vigilance too much to avoid accidents."

"Anshi County?"

The shopkeeper appeared astonished and said: "I have heard about things in that town and county. Is it really so chaotic that there are robbers in the county?"

"It was true a few days ago. But after a new official took office, it has eased a lot."

Lin Tianlu slowly explained: "I want to use his means to rectify the order in the county. It’s a matter of time."

"This is let me relax."

The shopkeeper let out a long cry, with a grateful expression on his face: "This place is not too far from Anshi County, if the county takes it seriously. In a mess, I am afraid that my business here will be affected. After all, even the other side is...eh?"

He quickly lightly exclaimed, and quickly asked: "Sir, before you Saying that I am a partner back to my hometown. I don’t know where are some of them going back?"

"Changling County."

"Changling..."

The shopkeeper's brows suddenly frowned and groaned.

Seeing his look different, Lin Tianlu couldn't help but said curiously: "Is there any acquaintances and friends of shopkeeper in Changling?"

"No, I didn't want to ask Mr. for help. It’s just that something is most similar to happening around Changling."

The wine glass in Lin Tianlu's hand was suddenly stopped, his complexion slightly condensed: "What's the matter?"

"I'm not quite clear about the specific things," After all, my Inn is really remote. Normally, there are only some idle passengers and caravans who will occasionally pass through, and they will know a little bit more or less from their mouths."

The shopkeeper thought: "Details In retrospect, it seemed that a great character came from Changling County. It seemed that it was a prince and son with an extraordinary position of power. He also sent out a lot of invitations two days ago, using this move to take advantage of the world's capable people? Probably it is the so-called Hero Conference."

"In Changling County?"

"It's not quite clear where the details are. But that son is now Living in the county is no different." Shopkeeper said with emotion: "I heard that the son of the elder came, and many members of the surrounding Aristocratic Family, and even officials from various provinces and governments came to visit, I think it is very lively."

What kind of heroes' meeting will he suddenly go to Changling County?

Lin Tianlu sounds a little strange.

"Sir, it seems that he is also very confused about this conference."

Shopkeeper smiled heartily: "Actually the same is true in the next. This so-called hero conference is too much. It’s weird, why do these distinguished people need to hold such a house-like meeting? If they want to seek talent posters, this kind of approach is just a deliberate show for them, and it's just a ridicule."

The corner of Lin Tianlu's mouth raised slightly: "The shopkeeper's look is thorough."

"I don't know what Mr.'s opinion has?"

"He is a hero meeting, I want to come It’s just a guise."

Lin Tianlu thought about it, and said: "I don’t know the origin of the son. But the rising winds and scudding clouds within the Wang Family should fight against power. There are some connections, so he intends to go south to seek help. And Changling may be his first stop, relying on this hero meeting to open up his reputation... even if this reputation can't be considered.

As for The other purpose behind it--"

He smiled and raised his right hand, and raised his five fingers to the next stroke: "Recruit soldiers, get up."

Shopkeeper slightly nodded: "What Mr. said indeed has several points of truth. How can this Wang Family kid be a stupid person? These actions will naturally have deep meaning behind it. But if you just want to recruit troops and buy horses, this hero meeting still sounds a bit inexhaustible. Pleasant."

"Perhaps, what he wants is this effect."

Lin Tianlu rubbed his chin and said meaningfully: "Even the two of us are not familiar with their identity background. Outsiders can guess what they think at will, then this recruiting and buying horses can be described as a complete failure. Then I thought, these many measures may only be used to hide their real behind-the-scenes actions, and there are many strategies and arrangements in my heart. It won’t be so simple for outsiders to know."

"Mr. said it is extremely true!"

Shopkeeper looked astonished: "This is indeed the truth. I am afraid that the conspiracy behind this is not. Less."

"And the conspiracy itself--"

Lin Tianlu smiled again, and said half-jokingly: "Maybe it's going to be something magical. "

"Mr. joked." Shopkeeper's smile followed, and he toasted and invited: "Cheers!"

"Cheers!"

Toast and drink together.

Lin Tianlu drank the drink in one sip, but his eyes flashed with a deep look.

Shizi...?

Chapter 228, the way home from Changling, is the expert here?

Early the next morning.

Everyone was ready to set off again soon after eating breakfast, and they never dangled again.

"--shopkeeper, please take care."

Lin Tianlu put a few pieces of luggage into the compartment, and turned back towards the middle-aged man standing in front of the door. "If you don't mind, you can go to Changling to relax and rest. As soon as I arrive in Changling, I can also be a guide to introduce shopkeepers to some places to play and have a few banquets."

"Many thanks to Mr. Lin's generosity."

shopkeeper cup one fist in the other hand in return, he let out a chuckle: "But I can’t put down the business of this Inn. My sons and daughters have grown up and established their careers."

Lin Tianlu said with a smile gently: ""That can only be said... we will if fated will meet again in the future. "

"Take care. "

Watching Lin Tianlu step onto the carriage and slowly ride away, the shopkeeper can't help but let out a long sigh.

"It's a pity!" "

"Then Mr. Lin has left?" "

A middle-aged woman dressed as a peasant woman approached curiously.

"Yes. "

"Look at what you look like, is it possible that I envy Mr. Na Lin to swim with the United States, or are there two United States in love?" "

The middle-aged woman showed a bit of teasing and poked his chest: "Could it be that I saw my old Zhuhuang, thinking about asking for another beautiful concubine's room like that Mr. Lin?" "

"Why, how can this be!" "

The shopkeeper suddenly looked embarrassed, and raised his hands angrily: "Is there any girl who will look down on me nowadays." "

"If you are younger, don't you have to think about it?" "

"I...how can I think about this." "

The smirk on shopkeeper's face gradually faded, and he looked into the distance again, and sighed for a long time: "Moreover, compared to Mr. Lin, I think that maybe the two women have more wonderful fate. "

"There are two women who are in love with each other, but the woman is destined?" "

Seeing her husband's emotional appearance, the peasant woman couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "You sat down and chatted for a long time last night, is it possible that you really talked about the real talent of the husband? "

"More than that!" "

The shopkeeper quickly said: "The profound knowledge is my first experience in life, and his temperament is quite sage. Even in the age of Saint stand in great numbers thousands of years ago, it was also called shocking and stunning, but even more so now? Being able to talk with him is like enlightenment, and many of the truths and knowledge that have been puzzled in the past have suddenly become clear. "

He can't help but admire again and again: "The opportunity to have a good time with wine is really the fate of my diligence for several decades!" "

"Sounds... it's really a great character." "

Seeing him so full of praise, the peasant woman also felt a little astonished in her heart.

The knowledge of her husband is naturally clear in her heart. When she was young, she was well-known in the village. A talented talent.

This excited look, but I have seen this in several decades.

"Hey! What a pity! "

The shopkeeper patted his thigh abruptly, full of regret: "If the child in our family could meet his husband last night, I don't know how good it would be!" "

"It's so beautiful, Huan'er and the others are all out of several dozen li, how can they be back in one night." "

"It's just a talk...it's a pity, a pity!" ”

……

Hum

The horse hummed a sigh of heat from its nose, and kept walking on all fours.

Lin Tianlu casually patted the back of the steed, lightly said with a smile: "It has been a hard time for you to drive these days. You should be able to go to Changling today and return to the stables to eat and rest in peace. "

The horse shook his head and grinned, seeming to respond in general, and I don’t know if he can understand the meaning of people’s words.

But I want to come. The strong horse that was fed and grown up within the valley should have some spirituality?

Lin Tianlu thought to himself that he could indeed feel that the temperament of this horse is very different from that of ordinary horses.

At least on this road, he really didn't wave the whip very much, but the horse drove off by himself and didn't need to direct it.

At this moment, a scent of fragrant wind quietly came from his side. Floating.

Lin Tianlu turned her head slightly, and saw Hua Shuya opening the curtain and coming to her side, sitting down slowly with her skirt.

And she has already put her body in her body today. The jade pendant was taken out again and returned to Mao Ruoyu for safekeeping. It was restored to its former appearance. The color of coldness faded and turned into a youthful beauty that fits the age.

"Why don't you continue to rest in the carriage? "

"Senior has been sitting here driving the carriage, always bored and uncomfortable, so he will come out to accompany you." "Hua Shuya closes her hair lightly and reveals a faint smile.

She curled her legs under her skirt between her lips, and looked back at Mao Ruoyu and Yunh who were groping for the jade flute in the car. : "Besides, Madam Yun is now teaching Miss Yun how to play an instrument, so I won't join in the fun. "

"Although Yunh has a cold temperament, Ruoyu really knows how to take care of people." "

Lin Tianlu sighed.

He quickly patted the shoulders of the girl beside him: "Need me to teach you how to play an instrument?" "

"I don't have to worry about seniors." "

Hua Shuya smiled softly, tilted his head and shook the long sword in his hand: "For me, it is most comfortable to practice sword dao." "

Lin Tianlu lost said with a smile: "You never forget your original intention. But in the past few days, have you had any problems with cultivation? "

"Troubled?" "

The girl thought for a while, and whispered: "My cultivation base has really stagnated recently. Although I learned a lot of secret techniques and hammered my body in Luyue within the valley, Sword Dao Road has always stayed in place. "

She looked down at the long sword in her hand, her tone was not lost:

"I also understand that this sword dao does not happen overnight. It takes at least a cost for ordinary people to cultivate a sword intent. After decades of work, I can achieve this achievement now thanks to the gift of senior. In the future, I will work hard day and night to continue on the sword dao. "

"Sword Dao..."

Lin Tianlu raised his head and looked at the clear and sunny sky, and said in a relaxed tone: "If you think about it carefully, this Sword Dao Road sounds a bit too Too broad. The so-called moves, steps, internal strength cultivation base, and even the sword intent sword heart of illusory will affect the sharpness of the sword.

So Shuya, what do you think you still lack? "

"...sword intent? "

"I think you lack a reason to swing a sword." "Lin Tianlu smiled and gestured right hand: "Or, Shu Ya, do you simply like to swing a sword?" "

"..."
