Martial Arts Immortal.

Chapter 84
The bright moon hangs high.

The bright moonlight falls on the earth.

Like the night after spring, the wind is still a bit cold.

The night market is very depressed and there are not many pedestrians on the road.

Lin Zheyu followed the boy to the restaurant, where an old man in his 60s and a young man sat together and looked over with a smile.

Lin Zheyu could tell at a glance the old man's strength and the level of his energy and blood.

"Come on, sit down."

The old man said with a smile, as if he was not the one who threatened Lin Zheyu before.

Lin Zheyu was not polite and sat down opposite the old man.

"I wonder if you would like to come over here, why are you doing this?" Lin Zheyu said lightly.

Could it be that something happened between Xing Jinglong and his son?

impossible.

When he started, he handled it very cleanly, leaving no clues.His apparent strength is only at the bone forging level, so it is impossible for the Xing family to find out about him.

"Haha, I heard that Gang Leader Xu has recruited an incredible genius. I'm a little curious about how talented he is, and I can't help but want to meet him."

"Now that I see it, it is indeed something extraordinary."

The old man chuckled.

At his signal, the boy on the side took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Lin Zheyu.

"It's just some luck, not a talent."

"If your Excellency please come here just for this small matter, then I will take my leave."

"Also, please don't threaten others with your relatives and friends. After all, you are not alone, don't you think so?"

Lin Zheyu looked directly at the old man and said.

This old guy actually threatened himself with Wu Yinghe, Jia Yanyong and others, which made Lin Zheyu extremely disgusted.

"What I'm saying is that I'm just worried that I won't be able to win over you, so I resort to some tricks that won't make it to the table."

"I invited you here because I want to ask you something. Do you know Xing Zhiyuan and his son? Their death has something to do with you, right?"

The old man stared at Lin Zheyu and said in a determined tone.

There was a smile on his face, as if it was not his Xing family who died.

Of the three fathers and sons, Xing Zhiyuan, only Xing Jing'an caught his eye. The other two were collateral and not very talented. Even if they died, he wouldn't care too much.

"I don't know him. I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person."

Lin Zheyu shook his head, his expression not changing at all.

When he first started, he didn't leave any evidence behind. He was really not afraid of being traced on himself. At most, he would only suspect that he knew some clues.

"Yeah, then I'll go back and let them check again."

Seeing that Lin Zheyu's expression did not change, the old man smiled and said.

"I heard that you have a good talent. I wonder if you are interested in working for my Xing family. We can give you whatever Xu Jingwu can give you, and we can give you what they can't."

"how?"

The old man looked at Lin Zheyu and said lightly.

"No matter what, even if I agree, you won't have any trust in me. I don't want to take your pill of controlling people."

Lin Zheyu shook his head and said.

Xing Jinglong also recruited him at the beginning, because he was recruited from a competitor, and he needed to consider the issue of spies, and there was no basis for trust between them.

As a price, Lin Zheyu needed to take the pills given by Xing Jinglong.You don't need to think about it to know that this pill is a poison, used to control your subordinates.

Those big forces will use this method to control their distrustful subordinates.

Lin Zheyu had seen many such drugs in drug books.

However, it is easy to crack as long as you find the detoxification method.

"The medicine is only a temporary measure. It will be released after you have made enough contributions to the Xing family and gained their trust."

"Now that the rebel army is coming, the country will be destroyed. In a few months, Songyi City will also fall. There is no future for you to follow the Xu family."

The old man said lightly.

If the war spreads to Songyi City, the Xu family's best option is to move the family to another city.

But that's easier said than done.

The layout of each city has almost been fixed. After the Xu family moved there, it would be difficult to develop it again to where it is now.

"Can I have a future by following you?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"As long as you join the Xing family, I can increase your strength to the Qi and Blood realm in a short period of time, giving you a certain degree of protection in this troubled world!"

"Even if your talent is outstanding enough, it is not impossible to achieve the second or even third transformation of qi and blood."

The old man said lightly, with a faint smile on his face.

"not interested."

"Although I have little experience, I know the truth that there is no shortcut in practicing martial arts. I just want to move forward step by step in a down-to-earth manner."

"I have no idea about joining the Xing family. Please don't disturb me in the future, and don't threaten my friends."

"When it comes to relatives and friends, the Xing family has many more friends than I do."

Lin Zheyu said lightly, then turned and left.

He no longer has to be too afraid of the Xing family.

His strength has reached the level of the Second Transformation of Qi and Blood, and combined with the superb Jin Yan Kung, even warriors with the Third Transformation or even the Fourth Transformation of Qi and Blood may not be able to catch him.

"Hmph, this person really doesn't know how high the sky is and how dare he threaten the Xing family."

After Lin Zheyu left, the young man next to the old man snorted coldly.

"It's a pity. I didn't want to use that rough method." The old man shook his head and said.

If possible, he did not want to use drugs to destroy Lin Zheyu's brain and train him to become a dead soldier without intelligence.

He had heard that Lin Zheyu realized the 'shi' after practicing martial arts for half a year, and his understanding was astonishing.

If the brain is destroyed, the understanding will be useless.

It's a pity that Lin Zheyu is unwilling to join the Xing family. If he is unwilling and unwilling, after cultivating him into the Qi and Blood realm, even poison restraints will be useless and will only cause backlash.

Poison restraint can only restrain those who are afraid of death.

"Grandpa, do you want me to send someone to arrest his friends, and then..." the young man said.

"No need, those people are just little people." The old man said calmly.

……

Lin Zheyu looked cold after leaving the restaurant.

The Xing family is becoming more and more unscrupulous.

"Find an opportunity to kill that old guy!"

Lin Zheyu felt furious. He didn't like the feeling of being threatened and thought about.

With the strength of his Qi and Blood Transformation, combined with the ability to hide the breath of the Turtle Breath Technique, it is still very easy to kill some people.

Only if more people die and the Xing family is in chaos, they won't always think about themselves.

"call……"

"Whoosh..."

As soon as he walked out of the restaurant, Lin Zheyu saw Xu Qinyi running over panting.

Next to him, followed a middle-aged man, whose aura was very strong, reaching the level of Qi and blood gauze.

"It's great that you're okay. The old guy didn't do anything to you, right?" Xu Qinyi asked.

When Lin Zheyu left with the boy, he asked a boy from the Feihong Gang to notify Gang Leader Xu on the way.

He was worried that the Xing family would completely break up their relationship and attack him in the city.

"It's okay. This old guy threatened me with my friends and asked me to join the Xing family and work for them." Lin Zheyu shook his head.

"The Xing family is becoming more and more unscrupulous!"

Xu Qinyi said with an ugly expression.

The middle-aged man next to him also looked a little unkind.

The middle-aged man looked up to the second floor of the restaurant. Next to the window on the second floor, the elder of the Xing family stuck his head out of the window and looked at them with a smile.

The young man next to the old man waved to Lin Zheyu and looked at him with a sneer.

"Let's go back first." Xu Qinyi said.

The three of them left the restaurant and came to Funing Garden.

Seeing that Lin Zheyu was fine, the middle-aged man left, leaving only Lin Zheyu and Xu Qinyi.

"Didn't it mean that the Xing family didn't dare to take action in Songyi City at will?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"The situation is not good. I suspect that the city lord is no longer in the city and Songyi City is going to be in chaos!" Xu Qinyi frowned.

Although ordinary people like Lin Zheyu didn't feel anything, there were undercurrents going on behind the scenes of several major families in Songyicheng these days, resulting in many casualties.

In just a few areas outside the city, there were a lot of scuffles between several companies, but it didn't get to the point where they were completely separated from each other.

"How to say?"

Lin Zheyu asked doubtfully.

The city lord can be said to be the key to Songyi City's current situation.

As the most powerful family in Songyicheng, the Xing family controls one-third of the city guards in Songyicheng. If it were not for the pressure of the city lord, Songyicheng would have been dominated by the Xing family.

"The fighting on the frontline is very bad, worse than imagined. Although many troops have been mobilized to support in the past two months, they still cannot stop the rebel army." "The latest information came yesterday, the rebel army has arrived in Baohe City Outside."

"It takes time for information to come back and forth. Maybe Baohe City has been captured by the rebels now." Xu Qinyi said with an ugly expression.

They were also shocked when they received the latest information yesterday. It was too fast.

"So fast!"

Lin Zheyu was shocked.

He thought that with the support of so many troops, the situation on the front line could be stabilized, but he did not expect that they would advance to Baohe City.

The Lu brothers and sisters who contributed his first huge sum of money were from Baohe City.

Baohe City is not far from Songyi City, with two cities in between.

If Baohe City is captured, with the speed of the rebel army's attack, it will soon be Songyi City's turn.

"Well, it's too fast. It's incredibly fast. It's like destroying everything."

Xu Qinyi said with some regret.

The Wei Dynasty has been strong for hundreds of years, and they have all become accustomed to the power of the Wei Dynasty.Before, they all believed that they could stabilize the situation by mobilizing a large army to support them after the Chinese New Year.

Unexpectedly, the Wei army would be so vulnerable in the face of the rebellion.

"You mean, the city lord went to the front line to support?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"Probably."

"I heard from my father that many masters appeared in the rebel army. Although there are many soldiers and generals on the front line, the number of top experts is far behind."

"Even relying on military formations, there is still no way to make up for the numerical gap between the top powerhouses. It is precisely because of this that they were defeated so quickly."

"The Xing family has done a lot of things secretly. With the help of Jiuyou Sect, they have tested the bottom line of the city lord step by step. The city lord has never responded."

"My father and the others began to speculate that the city lord is no longer in Songyi City." Xu Qinyi said.

He also understood many things after listening to Xu Jingwu's explanation.

The reason why Jiuyou Sect was able to develop steadily in the Lion Valley and recruit refugees from all over was because the city lord couldn't get away and had no time to deal with it.

Otherwise, given how much Wei dislikes other demonic sects, the Jiuyou Sect will be destroyed as soon as it emerges.

"If this is the case, then we should consider leaving Songyicheng as soon as possible." Lin Zheyu frowned.

He was quite comfortable staying here. He originally thought he could reach the perfection of the eighth level of Jin Yan Gong, the level of the four changes of Qi and blood, before leaving Songyicheng.

Unexpectedly, the rebel army broke his plan.

"My father and the others are already preparing to leave Songyi City. They plan to leave within a month and go to Bafang City in batches."

"Brother Lin, you can come with us then!"

Xu Qinyi looked at Lin Zheyu and said.

It is impossible to take away all the members of Feihong Gang.

Almost all members of the Feihong Gang have families and relatives in Songyi City, so it is not easy to persuade them to leave.

The capture of Songyi City did not mean that ordinary people had completely lost their livelihood. Moving their families was not necessarily a better option than staying in the city.

Only wealthy businessmen like them from aristocratic families need to worry about being divided up by local tycoons.

The Xu family was relocating, so they could only take away as many experts as possible who were willing to leave with them.

"Can you allow me to think about it for a few days?"

Lin Zheyu pondered for a moment and said, "I want to ask Senior Brother Han to see what his plans are. If Senior Brother Han is short of manpower, then I may need to go over and help."

Lin Zheyu and Han Mo are relatively close. After all, they are his senior brothers.

Moreover, Senior Brother Han Mo has just risen, and his strength is far from that of the Xu family, so he will be needed more.

"We won't leave so soon, you just need to make a decision before departure." Xu Qinyi said.

He didn't blame Lin Zheyu.

Leaving Songyicheng is an important decision, and there won't be many people willing to follow them when the time comes.

Moreover, Lin Zheyu was going to help his senior brother. In comparison, his relationship with Han Mo would be closer than that with the Xu family.

"You have to be careful this month before leaving. The Xing family has become more and more unscrupulous after learning that the rebel army captured Baohe City and speculated that the city lord is not in the city."

"You are being targeted by them. I'm worried that the Xing family will attack you directly." Xu Qinyi warned.

"Well, I'll be careful."

Lin Zheyu nodded.

With his current strength, to be able to threaten him would require at least a strong person with Qi and Blood Transformation Three or above.

Although the Xing family was powerful, there were not many strong men with Qi and blood changes above three levels. Lin Zheyu did not believe that they would send such strong men to deal with such a small character like him.

……

early morning.

Lin Zheyu came to Han Mansion early.

Han Mo was practicing the Ten Thousand Army Steps technique in the backyard.

Seeing Lin Zheyu's arrival, he stopped practicing and walked to the pavilion.

"Is there something urgent?" Han Mo asked.

He and Lin Zheyu have known each other for so long, but he has never seen Lin Zheyu come to visit early in the morning.

"Senior brother, I got news from the Xu family that the rebel army has captured Baohe City. What are your plans next?"

Lin Zheyu said.

"Um?!"

"The rebel army captured Baohe City? So quickly? How is it possible!"

Han Mo couldn't help but exclaim, obviously he didn't know the news either.

"I also heard from Mr. Xu Qinyi that they have business in Baohe City. The news should be true." Lin Zheyu said.

Han Mo couldn't help but stand up and pace back and forth.

Unlike Lin Zheyu, Han Mo had to take care of his family, not only his wife and children, but also his seven aunts and eight aunts to consider.

"Senior brother, if necessary, you can evacuate with the Xu family." Lin Zheyu suggested.

Bandits are rampant on the road and there are many crises. If you evacuate with the Xu family, your safety will be more guaranteed.

"No, it's not time to evacuate yet. There are still two cities. The rebels may not be able to break them."

"And as a centurion of the city guard, with the salary of the Wei Dynasty, I have to put down the rebellion for the Wei Dynasty. Deserting before the battle is a taboo in the army and will be treated as treason."

Han Mo shook his head and said.

He also wanted to leave, but he couldn't. Even wanting to send his wife, children, and children out would be troublesome and would be considered a tendency to defect.

"If you want to leave, just leave by yourself. When the city cannot be defended, I will evacuate with the army."

Han Mo frowned, pondered for a moment and said.

He couldn't leave, not even his wife, children, and children.

As a member of the city guard, his identity is somewhat sensitive. If he wants to evacuate, he will easily be labeled as a defector.

The same is true for the Xing family. As they control almost one-third of the city guards, most of the clan members have no way to evacuate and can only secretly send out a small number of clan members.

This is also the reason why they are so unscrupulous and want to strengthen the family's strength as soon as possible.

"Okay, if you need anything, just ask."

"By the way, I got a few blood pills from bandits before, which can allow people to break through from the peak of zang refining to the level of qi and blood."

"See if you need it. If so, I can give you two."

Lin Zheyu thought for a while and said.

"You even got the blood pill?"

Han Mo said with some surprise.

But he didn't ask in detail. Everyone had their own secrets. He felt that Junior Brother Lin was a person with great luck.

"Sell me two. I'll pay 40 taels of gold for each."

"Don't put it off, blood pills are much more valuable than you think, especially at times like this." Han Mo pondered for a moment and said.

He didn't buy it for himself. Han Mo was sure to break through to the Qi and Blood realm within a month. He bought it for his own clan and family guards.

Improve the strength of those around you and make your safety more secure.

"Do you still need them? I have two extra ones here. I originally wanted to keep two spare ones, but if senior brother needs them, let's give them to senior brother together."

Lin Zheyu pondered for a moment and said.

"At this time, I won't be polite. Sell it to me together!"

Han Mo nodded, not polite.

The approach of the rebel army gave him a sense of crisis. Only by making the family stronger as soon as possible could he survive this war.

"it is good!"

Lin Zheyu nodded, took out the bottle containing blood pills from his arms, and handed it over.

Before he came, he had thought about the possibility that Han Mo would not be able to leave. After all, his senior brother's identity was quite sensitive.

Not only that, he also brought a lot of poison and poison powder.

"Senior brother, do you need poison or poison powder? I have some here for you to use as a spare." Lin Zheyu said.

Although his strength has been upgraded to the second level of Qi and Blood Transformation, he is just a bigger ant facing a large army.

This is all Lin Zheyu can do. As for the outcome, it can only depend on the fate of his senior brother.
