Chapter 70 Hypocrisy
Lin Shan never imagined that as soon as he discovered the magical power of the town sect, "The Book of Seven Arrows on the Nail Head", Princess Guo would come out to cut off his beard!
Before he could react, Princess Guo behind her stepped forward, raised her hand, and threw ten spiritual stones directly into the hands of the stall owner.
"Ten spiritual stones, keep them!"
Then a pair of phoenix eyes and Lin Shan faced each other!
At this time, Lin Shan was even more frightened and angry, because the princess did not play her cards according to the routine.
He came up to cut off the nonsense, threw the spirit stone directly to the stall owner, cooked the raw rice, and bought it directly.
Why don't you raise the price with yourself? Lin Shan was ready to raise the price.
At this time, the atmosphere between the two was slightly solemn. Lin Shan held the straw man motionless in his hand.
Hand it over? Impossible. Others don't know the value of this straw man, but he knows it clearly.
Just when he couldn't help but turn around and wanted to raise the price with the stall owner and buy it again, Princess Guo across from him suddenly burst into laughter.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I bought this for you."
Lin Shan was caught off guard and looked at the woman in blue palace clothes in front of him in shock.
The woman seemed to have forgotten that they were mortal enemies, and raised her eyebrows.
"Looking for a place to chat?"
……
In a private room of a teahouse in the city, Lin Shan and Princess Guo were sitting at the same table.
The two of them drank tea separately, and occasionally their eyes met, but no one spoke first.
Lin Shan didn't say anything grateful. He didn't need anyone else to do this for him. He himself was planning to buy it.
Moreover, if the princess is his life-and-death enemy, there must be a purpose for inviting him here. Since fighting is not allowed in the city, there is no need for him to lose the initiative.
After drinking tea for a while, Princess Guo finally spoke first. It has to be said that the iceberg-tempered beauty's words are pleasing to the eye, and there is a certain charm in the light lips. Lin Shan even doubts that she can compete with the top names in a brothel.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, a native of Qinghe County in Southern Xinjiang of the Great Song Dynasty, a branch of the Lin family. At the age of 16, he entered the Acquired Breath Realm, and later joined the Nightingale Division. Two years later, Zhu Guo of Dongting Lake was born, killing Nanxian Master, and came to The capital is already in the middle stage of Qi training”
Princess Guo glanced at Lin Shan thoughtfully and knew all about his origins and past.
Lin Shan was playing with the teacup in his hand, feeling neither happy nor sad. He did not feel the surprise, doubt, fear, anger and other emotions after being investigated and found out the details.
Since someone from Lin traveled across time, he has lost all his parents in this world, has no confidante, and has no weak spots at all. So what if the investigation is clear?
If anything, the Lin family in Qinghe County had some kind of nurturing grace, but it couldn't be used to blackmail him. If the Lin family is destroyed, it will only arouse greater hatred from Lin Shan!
"Princess Guo is indeed the apple of the eye of the King of Huai'an and is well-informed. However, you don't think you can take advantage of Lin, right?"
"What, you want to use the Lin family of Qinghe County to blackmail me?"
Lin Shan's face was expressionless.
Princess Guo saw that the old god Linshan was at ease, and had to sigh secretly that although this boy is young, he is mature and prudent, and he is a troublesome guy!
"I know that Fellow Daoist Lin is carefree, but I don't mean that. Besides, Fellow Daoist Lin is not the only one in the Lin family who has embarked on the path to immortality. How can His Highness easily make another enemy?"
When Lin Shan heard this, he remembered it. When he left Xianggao County, he went back to the Lin family and heard that Lin Fan had also been taken away by an expert in the world of immortality. This is indeed another layer of insurance, and I don't have to worry too much about the Lin family.
However, the mystery behind Princess Guo's words and the purpose of bringing him here were still not made clear, so Lin Shan naturally would not say anything more.
The beauty in palace attire next to her saw Lin Shan's expression of indifference again, so she had no choice but to stop trying to make excuses: "Fellow Daoist Lin, let's be honest, His Highness came to you this time because he wanted to reconcile."
Lin Shan poured tea by himself without raising his head: "Reconciliation? Ten spiritual stones are enough to reconcile. His Highness is too despised."
Princess Guo frowned: "What do you want, you and I don't have any deep hatred. I almost killed you at the beginning, but didn't you almost kill me later? How does this count as a settlement?"< br>
After drinking the tea in the cup, Lin Shan sat in the teahouse and looked at the mountains from a distance, seeming to recall some past events.
"What about the dead Huangxian Master? How to settle his account?"
Princess Guo patiently explained: "The death of Taoist friend Huang has nothing to do with me. When the old ghost in green robe hid his identity and leaked the news to you, we didn't know about it. The other two Taoist friends also had a fight with him by the stream. Later he and We cooperated and ended up sneaking out to eat alone. We deserved to die! "From the beginning to the end, none of us really hurt Daoist Huang, did we?"
When Lin Shan heard this, it seemed that this was also the case. It was the old man in green robe who killed Master Huang Xian, and the old man in green robe was killed by himself. Princess Guo and others did not catch anything.
However, it seems that they have been forgotten.
"How are the Taoist nuns in black robes and the woman in bamboo hats doing?" Lin Shan asked curiously.
Princess Guo answered simply, "The former is dead, and the latter is the daughter of Duke Qi. For the sake of her father's friendship, we let her live."
Lin Shan remained silent, recalling the scene when the black-robed Taoist Priest asked him and Master Huang Xian for help at the top of her lungs.
However, he didn't have any grudges. He was unfamiliar with her and there was no need to risk his life to save her. He just felt a little emotional.
The iceberg beauty next to her saw that he was silent for a long time, and she stamped her feet anxiously: "Friend Daoist Lin, we are not afraid of you, but it is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Don't think that I am begging you!"
Lin Shan touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and weighed the gains and losses.
Now that he has just arrived in Yichuan, everything is focused on improving his own strength. Now that revenge is not urgent, it is better to be conceited and tolerant.
"Okay, but I need you and the people behind you to do me a favor."
Princess Guo asked warily: "What are you busy with?"
Lin Shan smiled and said, "It's not a big deal. You each have a royal palace to support you. I hope you can all get me some antiques that are familiar to the world. I personally like to collect them. It shouldn't be difficult, right?"
That's right, Lin Shan had the idea of Gu Yun.
What he didn't expect was that Princess Guo was actually a bit embarrassed: "My father, Prince Huai'an, has one or two of the famous antiques you mentioned. There is no problem in giving them to you, but I'm afraid it's hard to tell about other fellow Taoists."
"Why? Aren't they all immortal masters enshrined by the palace?" Lin Shan asked puzzledly.
Princess Guo patiently explained to him: "But they only have a cooperative relationship with the palace and cannot force the prince. The Song Dynasty court is supported by three major sects, and the royal family itself also has foundation-building monks, so the immortal cultivators have been warned not to harm the mortals of the royal family. The prince takes action.”
"So the mortal princes in the world worship casual cultivators just to deal with the mortal innate masters. No one among the immortal cultivators dares to harm them!"
Princess Guo shook her head and said that she could not make the decision for others. After all, those casual cultivators also worked for the prince.
After hearing this, Lin Shan had no choice but to sigh. Just having antiques from the Huai'an Wang family was better than nothing.
The two discussed again for a while, and finally reached an agreement and agreed to reconcile.
After all, if he really fights with Princess Guo and others, he will have to return to the Song Dynasty sooner or later, and a bloody battle will inevitably happen.
If these people were to be more ruthless and ambush Yi Chuan on his way back, although he would not be afraid of Princess Guo, Lin Shan would still be wary of her accomplice, the middle-aged Fu Jian in Jinyi.
After the two settled their differences, they slowly started talking and laughing. Without the halo of enemies, Lin Shan looked at Princess Guo with admiration. After all, she was a beauty! Who doesn't like that?
What's more, it's the iceberg beauty with Binglinggen, whose temperament really makes people have a faint desire to conquer.
But the next moment, the iceberg beauty made an invitation. Precious spiritual grass was found in the north of the Yanyun Mountains. She invited Lin Shan to go on an adventure together, but Lin Shan decisively refused!
Are you kidding me? !
Lin Shan's mind was now filled with research and exploration on how to use the "Nailhead Seven Arrows Book", the newly acquired supernatural power of the town sect, and secluded cultivation to reach the peak of the middle stage of Qi training.
As for traveling with beauty? Everyone stay back! If you ask, I just don’t have time!
Princess Guo wanted to persuade her again, but when she saw that Lin Shan gradually felt something was wrong and seemed a little wary and suspicious, she had to give up.
The two chatted casually for a while, and then Lin Shan hurriedly said goodbye and left.
……
After seeing Lin Shan walking away from the teahouse, Princess Guo's pretty face returned to coldness, and she spoke to the air: "He's gone, come out."
The curtain behind the box was lifted, and the middle-aged man in Jinyi walked out with two others.
