The Wheel-Turning Master

Chapter 32 Hesitation

When Lin Bai arrived at the county government office, he saw a bald man from a distance.

The bald man also stretched his neck to look over here.

"Brother Zhuanlun!" Niu Er hurried forward, unloaded Lin Bai's medicine box, and carried it on his back.

"..." Lin Bai couldn't stand this address, but he still spoke, knowingly asking: "Brother Niu, it's already evening, what exactly do you want me to do?"

"We don't know!" Niu Er's face fell, and he really didn't know. He just led the way, "Come with me, I've arranged a place for you."

"Sorry, Brother Niu." Lin Bai bowed.

"Don't dare to call me Brother Niu anymore." Niu Er walked while showing a flattering smile, saying: "Please say a few good words to my wife in the future."

"Of course." Lin Bai naturally agreed, thinking that I didn't care about you saying I was weak in front of Sister Ren.

After entering the county government office and turning to the backyard door, Niu Er asked Lin Bai to go in by himself.

Pei Ning was sitting in the pavilion, surrounded by six gray-clothed swordsmen, who seemed to be arranging something.

Ren Qiaoyun was waiting nearby. Although she was dressed luxuriously, she looked like an old maid serving by her side.

Lin Bai was standing on his feet and did not move. Ren Qiaoyun saw Lin Bai coming and hurried over.

"Come with me." Ren Qiaoyun had a solemn expression, as if she had changed into a different person. She led Lin Bai to a room.

After closing the door, Ren Qiaoyun smiled, unable to hide her spring mood.

Lin Bai put down the medicine box, his heart was beating fast.

"You stay here tonight. Go out when someone calls you." Ren Qiaoyun reminded him.

"Yes. If it weren't for my sister's reminder, I wouldn't know what to do." Lin Bai bowed his hands and asked, "Why don't you see the county master?"

The county master was not seen during the day's operation, and he was not seen when he first came. It seemed that he had disappeared.

"What's the matter? Do you have something to say to me? Are you afraid that he will hear it?" Ren Qiaoyun smiled.

Lin Bai had a headache. His original intention was to find out the news, but he met someone who was out of tune, so there was nothing he could do.

"Look how scared you are." Ren Qiaoyun saw that Lin Bai didn't say anything, thinking that Lin Bai was really scared, she sat down and said, "It was the man surnamed Jiang who injured him, and he is recovering in the garden."

She didn't look sad, but proud, as if it was something worth being proud of for a man to fight for her.

"I see." Lin Bai nodded, and then asked, "Brother Jiang just left and didn't care about anything?"

"Then who knows?" Ren Qiaoyun obviously didn't want to talk about this. She pinched Lin Bai's arm, and then her index and middle fingers walked around on Lin Bai like a little man.

This woman is nearly thirty years old, and her charm is really hard to resist.

"Sister, don't worry, there will be many opportunities in the future." Lin Bai held her wrist.

"You can hold on, much better than that man surnamed Jiang."

After saying that, she turned around, opened the door, and smiled again, "Then I'll leave first, you just rest here, don't go out if you have nothing to do." Then she closed the door.

After a while, a maid brought wine and food, and specifically said that it was ordered by Ren Qiaoyun.

Since he was here, he should make the best of it. Lin Bai didn't pretend to be hypocritical and sat down to eat.

After eating, Lin Bai didn't go into the stone plate to practice internal skills, but just listened to the movement outside silently.

It was midnight, and there was a sudden movement outside.

There was a sound of feet stepping on broken tiles, and many people came.

Although Lin Bai didn't see anyone, he had a rough judgment: most of the people who came were third-rate, and even if there were many people, they were all sent.

After a while, there was a fire outside.

Lin Bai guessed that this was probably the intention of the intruders to cause panic.

Sure enough, soon there was a sound of swords clashing.

Lin Bai took this opportunity to quickly open the door and shouted: "It's a fire! Fire... eh?"

I saw a person standing at the door outside, wearing black clothes, holding a sword, with a straight posture and his back to me.

It was Pei Ning.

"I didn't even hear when she came..." Lin Bai had a higher opinion of Pei Ning's strength.

At this time, the yard was full of corpses. The six gray-clothed swordsmen seemed to have formed a certain formation. Whenever an assassin came forward, he would be easily strangled.

The assassins killed for a while, left a few corpses, and fled in all directions.

The six gray-clothed swordsmen did not pursue him, but only surrounded a black-clothed man.

Lin Bai estimated that this man should be the leader.

"Pei Ning! Why do you have to force him?" The black-clothed man had an old voice and looked very tall. The sword in his hand danced flawlessly, and his breath did not show any signs of weakening. The six gray-clothed swordsmen could not do anything to him for a while.

"These gray-clothed people are much worse than Jiang Rong. After all, Jiang Rong is a walking identity. This old man should be above the second-rate, and he is definitely a master in Huaxi County."

Lin Bai looked at him silently, secretly comparing and confirming.

"We have already retreated. Are you forcing me to fight to the death? Let me go, I won't bother you again!" the old man continued.

"Too late!" Pei Ning had already drawn his sword and flew up.

Lin Bai looked carefully and saw Pei Ning rushing out like light smoke and mist, but his sword was extremely powerful.

In the blink of an eye, the old man's long sword broke into pieces, and a bloody hole appeared in his neck, spurting blood.

"This is the Tongming Sword Technique! Take the meaning of Tongming, aim at the flaw, and the sword will move forward... Although the sword moves are slightly different, the sword is exactly the same as the one Jiang Rong used before his death... But in terms of power, Pei Ning is far better than Jiang Rong."

Lin Bai saw this swordsmanship and envied it. He secretly thought that if he could practice Wuji Gong to the fifth level and practice Tongming Sword Technique from time to time, he should be able to achieve the power of this sword.

"You came all this way, but you forgot to leave any alive." Pei Ning sheathed his sword and glanced at Lin Bai, "Let them clean up on the way." His intention to send him off was obvious.

Lin Bai bowed, picked up the medicine box, and left quickly.

From the backyard to the front hall of the county government, there were already constables waiting.

"Lin Zhuanlun, what happened inside? We dare not go in without the order of the noble!" The constables asked in unison.

After sweeping the Li family today, all the constables received rewards, so they were very eager.

"Let you clean up the floor." Lin Bai said honestly, and walked back home.

It was almost midnight, and the weather was very cool. A group of crows circled, as if they smelled blood.

Lin Bai thought about Pei Ning's sword for a long time, and then came to the door of Sister Zhen's house.

"What should I do at her house..."

Do it or not?

Knocked on the door, turned on the light, and Mu Zhen came out to open the door.

She didn't speak, and Lin Bai didn't speak either. The two seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Entered the room, naturally.

Afterwards.

Mu Zhen lay on her side, with one hand on her cheek, staring at Lin Bai non-stop.

Lin Bai retracted his hand and didn't dare to say anything.

"How long does it take you to eat a bun?" Mu Zhen suddenly asked.

"If you don't mind, I can keep..."

Before Lin Bai finished speaking, he realized that he had misunderstood.

But Lin Bai didn't understand the deep meaning of this sentence.

"I eat fast, one in three or five breaths." Lin Bai said honestly.

"No matter where you are, you are so fast?" Mu Zhen asked again.

Lin Bai immediately realized that she was talking about the stone plate...

"You hesitated." Mu Zhen laughed so hard that she was shaking with laughter. She was happier than Xiuxiu who picked up ten taels of silver, and she was not like before.
