Chapter 39 Lantern Festival

Tong Hua is not against strangers, these disciples of the Kongtong School are not much different in age, and they are very interested in and take good care of her little girl.

Bei Feng left early and didn't come down for dinner.

He was not here, but the meal was relaxed and pleasant.

Taking advantage of Tong Hua's absence, several disciples gathered around to tease Chu Lin.

"Junior Brother Ninth, is this the little girl from Baiwu Villa? She's very cute."

"That's right, the third senior brother said she is like a raging beast, I see, it's not that scary."

Chu Lin imagined that Tong Hua would go crazy, and it was not all wrong...

Then Chu Lin also left, and Tong Hua was still being discussed at the table.

"Enough." Jiang Shanxue put down the bowl and chopsticks, "After all, he is the young master of Baiwu Villa. He has no airs, and we have to be polite. Don't be too presumptuous these days, something really pissed her off. ...The poison in Baiwu Villa is not a joke."

The sword has no eyes, and the poison has no heart.

You can still live if you get hit by the sword and avoid the vital points, but if you have the heart to poison this thing, you will definitely die.

Everyone respectfully answered yes, and fear of Tong Hua rose in their hearts.

At night, the Lantern Festival in Langzhou begins.

On the first day, there was a parade of giant lanterns, which was very lively.

Chu Lin took Tong Hua to the street to watch, seeing the little girl jumping happily, he didn't know that he kept the corners of his mouth up.

There were too many people on the street, and Tong Hua was bumped accidentally, making her unstable.

Chu Lin quickly reached out and hugged her: "Be careful."

"Little idiot, I want to eat candied haws!"

"it is good."

"I also want lanterns."

"it is good."

"I still want..."

"Okay, okay, I have everything you want." Chu Lin put down Tong Hua, and led her to buy candied haws.

One night, the hand never let go.

After playing until dawn, Tong Hua was willing to go back to sleep.

Chu Lin didn't leave after sending the person back to the room, and just took a nap in the corridor by the door.

Langzhou has been bustling at night recently, but it is relatively quiet during the day.

"Junior Brother Ninth, why are you sleeping here?" The fifth disciple of the Kongtong School named Xia Qiu came out and saw Chu Lin guarding outside the room and asked, then remembered that this was Tong Hua's room, and probably guessed what the younger brother was thinking. "This inn is full of Kongtong sect disciples, there is no need to be so careful."

Chu Lin: "Dragons and snakes have mixed up in Langzhou recently, so it's better to be careful. I brought them out, so I can't afford to take care of them if something goes wrong."

Then the second senior brother Jiang Mingtang came over: "Junior brother, you still have a martial arts competition tonight, you didn't rest last night, and now you can't rest well like this, can you hold on to the martial arts competition tonight?"

Chu Lin: "Don't worry, Second Senior Brother, the first martial arts competition tonight is not difficult."

"Yo, your tone is serious." Jiang Mingtang patted his junior brother on the shoulder, "This generation of the Kongtong faction only counts on you to show your face, don't let senior brother lose money."

lose money?

Xia Qiu tugged at Jiang Mingtang's ear: "Can you be more serious! Swords have no eyes in the martial arts arena, and there must be danger accompanying you on the stage. You should take good care of your junior and brother, so why not lose money!"

"Yes yes yes, don't pull me, what will you do if you catch me!" Jiang Mingtang begged for mercy, "Junior Brother Ninth is capable of fighting against anyone in his generation, as long as it is not for those low-handed methods, Junior Brother will be fine. "

Chu Lin smiled, these two have always been like this.

"Brother and sister, are you going out?"

"Your Fifth Senior Sister wants to go to Langzhou Lake to play. I slept soundly, so she won't force me to wake me up."

"What? Don't you want to accompany me? Just tell me if you don't want to, I'm too lazy to take you!"

Xia Qiu left angrily, Jiang Mingtang hurriedly bid farewell to Chu Lin and chased after him.

"Oh, I didn't mean that, slow down..."

The head of the Kongtong School, Bai Jingyan, has a total of nine apprentices, except for Bei Feng, who are easy to get along with.

Especially the second disciple, who is not as upright as the senior sister Jiang Shanxue, compared to this second senior brother, everyone likes this second senior brother more.

Chu Lin looked at the time and guessed that Tong Hua would sleep until the afternoon, so he continued to lean on the corridor and watch.

……

……

The first night of the Lantern Festival in Langzhou is the display of lanterns, and the second night starts with the martial arts competition.

Tong Hua went downstairs and saw people from the Kongtong faction gathered together, she was more curious than Tan Tan.

On the table, "Bei Feng" was written, and Chu Lin was written at the same time, and it was obvious that more money was put on Chu Lin's name.

"What are you doing?"

"A child girl..."

It's too late to put things away now.

The other disciples didn't dare to speak out, they all looked at Jiang Mingtang.

So the second senior brother stood up and explained: "It's nothing. The third and ninth junior brothers compete this time. It's a rare opportunity. Let's all take a bet together to see who can finish last."

"Gambling?" Jiang Shanxue came, seeing the objects on the table, his face sank, "All of you, you are not so active in practicing kung fu, how decent it is to bet on your own seniors!"

Jiang Mingtang: "Elder Sister, why bother to be angry, there are too many odds in the martial arts arena, and we won't go out to gamble, our brothers are just having fun."

Jiang Shanxue: "This matter must have been caused by you making a fuss, and the younger brothers and sisters you brought along are not in good shape. Be careful that the master knows..."

Jiang Mingtang smiled, with some sarcasm: "If you don't tell me, senior sister, the master won't know."

Jiang Shanxue: "..."

Tong Hua's attention was on the table, but she couldn't hear what the two of them were talking about.She took out the money from her pocket and put it on Chu Lin's name: "I'll bet on the little idiot too!"

Jiang Mingtang took a look, and ignored Jiang Shanxue: "Young girl has good eyesight! I'm not boasting, my little junior is extremely talented, which is rare in a hundred years. If you bet on him to win, it's a guaranteed profit."

Tong Hua didn't know if the talent was good or not. Although Chu Lin was great, she didn't know what happened to the others. It didn't matter if they were making money as Jiang Mingtang said. She will still bet big.

I looked around, but I couldn't see Chu Lin.

"Where's the little idiot?"

"Junior brother went back to his room to change clothes."

"Oh... I'll go find him."

After Tong Hua left, Jiang Shanxue warned everyone again.

Different from the previous fear, this time everyone's reaction was much smaller.

Jiang Mingtang: "Master, we don't spend much time with Miss Tong, but judging from her behavior after coming here, she is not moody and needs to deliberately keep her distance. The relationship between Baiwu Villa and our Kongtong faction is so good. The relationship between the junior and younger brothers is good, and we are not the masters who provoke right and wrong and offend people all day long. There is no reason why she poisoned us? Or does the senior sister think that Miss Tong is an indiscriminate person who poisons a few people to death every day for no reason? little devil?"

Jiang Shanxue: "When did I say that!"

"Neither, we deliberately distanced ourselves from each other with respect, so people would feel uncomfortable seeing them, and then tell the elders in the family that our Kongtong sect disciples are difficult to get along with, wouldn't it be discrediting the sect?"

"..."

The topic ended here, Jiang Mingtang called everyone to the competition stage.
