Beauty and the Bodyguard

Shangguan Laner scratched her head and said matter-of-factly: "That's how I found you. I told the bald grandfather from the Back Mountain Palace that I wanted to find you, and then he sent someone to send me here."

Bald grandpa? Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was probably talking about the bald elder sitting in the center seat of the Back Mountain Hall.

However, this made him even more frightened. Could these elders of the Back Mountain Palace really be so powerful that they could lock themselves so easily in the vast back mountain?

Even with the help of various restraints from behind, this ability is still so exaggerated that it is jaw-dropping!

Although there have been such speculations and rumors before, now that the living example is in front of him, Lin Yi can't help but shudder. It seems that he really has to be careful when acting in this back mountain in the future, otherwise the secrets on his body may be revealed at some point. was exposed.

Seeing Lin Yi's incredible expression, Shangguan Lan'er suddenly said curiously: "Eh? Junior brother, don't you know? I heard my grandfather mentioned that after the elders of Houshan Palace passed many restrictions and assisted, except for the core of Houshan Palace, Outside that area, its perception can cover almost the entire back mountain. Although no one would do this under normal circumstances, it would be very convenient if they were allowed to find someone or investigate something in the back mountain!"

This is to be expected, after all, no matter how strong the strength is, the manpower is sometimes poor, and no one will keep an eye on the entire back mountain. If you really want to do this, things like vomiting blood from exhaustion are not a joke.

As for Lin Yi, if Shangguan Laner hadn't named him to come to him, a big shot like the elder of Houshan Palace would not waste his energy on a mere newcomer like him, let alone keep his attention on him at all times, so as long as Just be careful and it shouldn't be a big problem.

"The core area shouldn't be the focus of surveillance, right? Why can't it be sensed?" Lin Yi asked strangely.

"Ah! I accidentally let it slip. This is a secret that I only found out when I overheard my grandfather talking to several other elders. When the senior officials mentioned this matter, they called it the shame of the three pavilions. Most people Don’t let me know.” Shangguan Laner stuck out her tongue cutely.

The shame of the three major pavilions? Lin Yi suddenly became interested. He had been on Tianjie Island for four months. Since he had been staying at Yingxin Pavilion, he didn't know many things about the three major pavilions, especially some secrets that no one knew about.

Back Mountain is the territory clearly defined by the Three Pavilions. Something happened on his own territory that was called the shame of the Three Pavilions by the senior officials. Lin Yi was suddenly curious.

"Forget it, I won't tell anyone else. It's just a different matter for you, junior brother. Senior sister, I'll tell you secretly." Shangguan Lan'er pretended to be mysterious and asked Lin Yi to listen, and then said: " In the past, the Back Mountain Hall could monitor the entire back mountain, but something happened later. When an elder of the Back Mountain Hall was monitoring the core area, he was destroyed by the most powerful spiritual beasts among them. He has not yet recovered from his coma. At that time, ten elders from the three major pavilions gathered to suppress it, but in the end it was nothing. After that, few people mentioned this matter."

After hearing this secret, Lin Yi couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly. Before, he thought that the back mountain was completely controlled by the three pavilions, but now it seems that this is not necessarily the case.

Although the three major pavilions nominally control the back mountain, there shouldn't be much they can do to capture the spiritual beasts in the back mountain, especially the top and most powerful ones. Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a thing called the three major pavilions. The shame of the pavilion happened.

Lin Yi couldn't help but be secretly shocked. To be able to compete with ten elders from the three major pavilions at the same time, how powerful must the spiritual beasts at the core of the back mountain be?

No wonder during the last newcomer trial, Guidongzi said that with his current strength, those guys could easily kill him with a look. This was indeed true.

At this time, Lin Yi suddenly thought of Yu Xiaoke and his unconscious inheritor girlfriends, and asked in his heart: "The elder of the Houshan Palace has not recovered from his coma. Didn't he ask Master Zhang Liju for help? Or should he?" Even he can’t do anything?”

Shangguan Laner shook his head and said: "Master Zhang Liju, he is the most powerful figure in the entire Zhongdao, and he is also the master of the Zhongdao Alchemy Hall. How could he come to Beidao for this matter? Although he left from Beidao The one who went out is somewhat biased towards Bei Dao, but after all, he is standing on Nakajima’s point of view now, so he can’t be too unfavorable to one another, and he should help with any matter, right?”

"That's it." Lin Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The symptoms of this Houshan Palace elder sounded somewhat similar to those of people like Yu Xiaoke. If Zhang Liju couldn't do anything about it, it would make him a little worried.

After all, even if Zhao Hongbo once said that Zhang Liju had successfully cured Master Bing and Master Snow before, in the Elder's Guidance Day, these were just rumors in the final analysis, not actual examples in front of them.

"But I heard from my grandfather that the reason why the elders of the three major pavilions decided not to seek help from Master Zhang Liju was because they felt that favors were valuable and did not want to waste such valuable favors on such a trivial matter." Shangguan Laner continued.

Lin Yi couldn't help but grin. The life of a dignified elder from the Back Mountain Palace was still a trivial matter?

But thinking about it carefully, compared with Zhang Liju's favor, it seems that this is indeed the case.

From the perspective of the three major pavilions, although elder-level masters are rare, they can still be cultivated and recruited. On the contrary, it is Zhang Liju's favor that can be used once or less. This is an extremely precious strategic resource and must not be wasted easily.

"Okay, I've told you such a big secret, now you have to help me, senior sister, with my work!" Shangguan Lan'er stood on tiptoes again and patted Lin Yi's shoulder.

"Then...okay." Lin Yi thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.

Although he wanted to take this rare opportunity to take a walk around the back mountain and search for the Heart-Eating Exquisite Grass, he could still take care of both of these things at the same time by following Shangguan Laner.

What's more, he doesn't worry about Shangguan Lan'er wandering around the back mountain alone with a small circle of bears. Even if the elders of the back mountain hall will always pay attention to her whereabouts, if something happens, I'm afraid that even with the power of those elders, It is also beyond reach.

"But what kind of casting material do you want? Do you know where it is?" Lin Yi asked.

Looking for something in this vast back mountain is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Like the last time he looked for the Heart-Eating Exquisite Grass, even if he knew its habits and characteristics, he could only find it through luck. If he didn't even know these things, there was almost no chance of success. .
