Chapter 112 Rejection
Lin Yihan's expression was as usual, and he randomly found a topic to get rid of the matter.
At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao was stubborn and refused to let go, "There must be a secret in her, I can't see through it at all."
He looked at Lin Yihan with worried eyes, "I guess my brother doesn't know much about her either."
Lin Yihan knew that he couldn't be fooled, so he had to say seriously: "I really don't know much about her, and you don't have to worry that I will be upset about it. I know what's appropriate. Now I just have a slight affection. Who will do it in the future? How will you know?"
Lin Xiaoxiao sighed, knowing that she could not persuade Lin Yihan to give up. How could she not understand that her brother was as stubborn as a donkey sometimes?
The two of them are exactly the same in this regard. Once they make a decision, even ten cows can't pull it back.
Even if they join Wanxuanmen this time, they have made a resolute decision. No matter how much the family persuades them, they will not change their mind.
Regarding this point, my mother once said with emotion that they were born from the same child, and they all have the same stubborn temper.
Recalling what happened when she was a child, a smile appeared on Lin Xiaoxiao's face, but there was one thing she still had to say.
"It's not that my sister doesn't support you. I have talked with her several times about spiritual practice."
Lin Xiaoxiao knocked her teacup and emphasized: "She seems to have no idea at all about the relationship between men and women. For the record, it's not that she's ignorant, it's that she's not interested."
Lin Yihan curled his lips and smiled, his expression as gentle as water, "Okay, brother understands, thank you my good sister for your kind advice."
"By the way, did you get a response to the communication talisman you sent to Junior Sister Zhang Zheng?"
Lin Xiaoxiao glared at him with hatred, shook her head and said, "It's gone forever. What? She didn't even reply to you?"
Seeing a slight fluctuation in Lin Yihan's expression, Lin Xiaoxiao frowned and said suspiciously: "Junior Sister Zhang was interrogated by the Law Enforcement Hall today. It must be time to return to the cave at this time. Why didn't she return the message talisman?"
"Maybe I was delayed by something."
Lin Yihan drank the last drop of tea in the cup, stood up and said: "I'm going back first, so I can rest for a while, you know? Carefully, the Order of Mountains and Seas was taken away by a rising star."
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't even get up to see her off, she raised her fingers lazily and said, "I know, you can go and do your own thing."
…
The cave's restriction was triggered. Zhang Zheng opened his eyes suddenly, feeling the faint stinging pain in his soul. He frowned, quickly calmed down, and stood up to open the restriction.
Outside the cave, Lin Yihan, dressed in Yuebai sect uniform, was standing tall and tall, with an appearance as beautiful as jade.
Zhang Zheng's expression was slightly gentle, and the distant look in his eyes was clearly visible. He took the lead and bowed his hands and said, "Zhang Zheng has met Senior Brother Lin."
Lin Yihan's eyes dimmed, and he forced a faint smile on his lips, "There is no need to be so polite. I came to remind you that the Mountain and Sea Competition is coming soon. The participating disciples will gather at Jicang Mountain tomorrow. Don't miss it."
According to what he said, she had won the quota of disciples in this competition of mountains and seas.
Although I had expected it when the golden elixir was formed, I was still surprised and excited when I officially found out.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin, for informing me."
She suppressed the joy in her eyes, and said with a guilty look on her face: "I carelessly forgot to pay attention to this matter, and I bothered Senior Brother Lin to make a special trip. I feel really guilty."
"It's not a bother," Lin Yihan waved his hand and said, "It's just that I happened to meet Elder Duan and learned that you haven't left seclusion yet and have nothing to do, so I stopped by to take a look."
After the words fell, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then the atmosphere froze and they were relatively speechless.
The mountain breeze is rustling, and the weather is steep and chilly.
Glancing calmly at the "weed cave" behind Zhang Zheng, Lin Yihan turned sideways and looked at the green waves in the mountains, wearing red makeup under the dusk and sunset, but it could not hide the coldness of early spring.
"Then we will see you at Shanhai Lingbi."
Zhang Zheng nodded, smiled brightly, watched Lin Yihan leave, and shouted from a distance: "Thank you, Senior Brother Lin. Senior Brother Lin, please go slowly."
Lin Yihan, who was walking down the mountain along the path, paused for a moment, his thumb gently rubbed the space of the ring on his index finger, and his expression became a bit lonely, which was fleeting.
Watching Lin Yihan's figure disappear from a distance, the arc hanging at the corner of Zhang Zheng's mouth gradually dropped and became gentle.
"Senior Brother Lin came to visit Senior Sister again two days ago. Counting this time, he has come four times in ten years. Does he like Senior Sister?"
In her memory, her soul was trapped in the divine palace, unable to move, and could only listen to Wang Ruojin's nervous chatter.
You don’t need to take most of the words to heart, but some words are still worth listening to.
Zhang Zheng's eyes turned several times, reflecting the warm colors of dusk, and his lacquer-colored pupils became more transparent and bright, like obsidian.
She originally didn't believe Wang Ruojin's nonsense, but today Lin Yihan personally came to the cave just to remind her about the Shanhai Lingbi incident, which made her feel a little suspicious.
Zhang Zheng knew very well that this competition was of great significance to her, but to the sect, if her little disciple failed to participate, it would just be one less arena and it would not matter.
If Elder Duan is willing, he can send a servant at will or send a messenger to notify her, so why bother to bother a direct disciple from another lineage!
Zhang Zheng did not dare to narcissistically think that Lin Yihan must have other feelings for her, but Lin Yihan was kind to her. Even if it was a little dangerous or a small piece of sewage, she was not willing to let him fall into it for no reason because of her.
She has a clear understanding of her own thoughts. In this life, apart from pursuing the great road and saving her life, the most important thing in her life is money.
She didn't have the leisure to care about the rest of the things, let alone the time to take them into consideration.
It's better not to carry any emotional baggage that might become a burden in the first place.
The eyebrows on the distant mountain stretched easily, and Zhang Zheng felt refreshed. She tapped her toes and flew away.
…
Wanxuanmen, Mission Hall.
"Please settle the task of recruiting disciples in Xiao Qian World."
The disciples in the mission hall raised their heads and looked at the female cultivator in front of them strangely. They found that the aura around her body was powerful and deep, so they quickly calmed their expressions and said respectfully: "Senior sister, please show me the mission card. Please return the Qiling Yan."
Zhang Zheng took out the mission card and Qiling Yan from the storage bag and handed them to him.
The black mission card was marked with mysterious talismans in the hands of the disciples. The four characters "Yi Yi Si Qi" shone with aura, and as the aura gradually rose, they merged into the two characters "Medium".
"Three thousand nine hundred low-grade spiritual stones, seventy contribution points, senior sister, please keep them."
Zhang Zheng was very satisfied, took the spirit stone from the disciple's hand, put it into a storage bag, put it away, and turned around to leave the mission hall.
It's not bad to be rated as average. After all, thirty people were required to recruit disciples, but they only brought back four. If the disciples hadn't been very qualified, they might have been rated as unqualified for the task.
Thinking of this, Zhang Zheng thought of the mysterious wasteland. She had heard some scattered news from Wang Ruojin, but she didn't know what happened in the first place.
"Junior brother, I don't know the whereabouts of the disciples you have recruited during this trip to Xiaoqian World. Can you tell me?"
The disciple of the mission hall hung the mission card in his hand back on the wall and replied: "This is not a confidential matter, so of course it is okay."
"It seems that there was an accident when recruiting disciples in Xiaoqian World. A few of the disciples who went to the lower world died. As for the newly recruited disciples, they were all classified into the inner and outer sects after their qualifications were tested by the luck stone."
"Well... let me see... of the four disciples recruited by Senior Sister, one has entered the inner gate, and the other three have been assigned to the outer gate."
The disciple of the mission hall put down the book, "Other details, which are more detailed, are not recorded in the mission book."
"Thank you, junior brother."
Zhang Zheng cupped her hands in thanks and left the mission hall thoughtfully.
