Chapter 492 Louyue Villa
Bailiyu had already received the news when Ling Yan went up the mountain.

He didn't dare to be negligent, and when he heard the report from his subordinates, he immediately greeted him.

More than a 40-year-old man, in his prime of life, he is full of energy due to years of martial arts practice, and his hair is combed meticulously.

Moderate clothing.

With a pleasant smile, he clasped his hands and fists towards Ling Yan, "I don't know that the prince is coming, but I am far away from welcoming you, and I hope you will forgive me."

Ling Yan followed the rules in Jiang Hu, and returned the salute slightly, "You are welcome to the owner of Baili Village, we are the ones who bothered you."

Bailiyu quickly waved his hand and led people towards the main hall, "Prince, please."

In the main hall, someone had already set up good tea, which was very fragrant.

Ling Yan shook the teacup, brought it to his lips, and didn't rush to drink, but said, "The owner of Louyue Mountain must have known about it these few days?"

"I know," Bailiyu nodded, and the smile on his lips gradually drooped. "After the accident, I sent someone to the Yamen to inquire. I didn't expect that the people who died were all those who helped me when I was in trouble."

His cheeks twitched slightly, feeling extremely distressed, "So I also mentioned to Mr. Fu Yin that if there is anything that needs help, I am obliged to do so."

Ling Yan looked at him calmly, and did not affect his judgment because of his agitation.

After a pause for a few seconds, he said in a flat voice, "The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring. The owner of Baili Villa is so loyal, which is why there is such a grand event in Louyue Villa."

Bailiyu waved his hands again and again, "I don't dare to do it, I have been down and down myself, and I know the hardships, so I am willing to temporarily provide shelter for those who have nowhere to go and come to seek refuge."

He was quite moved, and his eyes were full of memories.

Ling Yan didn't make a sound to disturb, but just drank tea quietly.

It took a long time before he asked, "The owner of the villa must be very familiar with Louyue Mountain. Do you know that there are caves or secret passages here?"

Bailiyu was taken aback, frowned, and shook his head, "I haven't found it yet."

"Won't the owner usually send people to patrol the mountains?"

"This...not really," Bailiyu explained, "Usually we also have disciples who chop firewood in the mountains to see if there are any criminals around, but they never make special inspections."

After all, this mountain does not belong to them, they also belong to outsiders.

Ling Yan nodded, put down the teacup, and raised the corner of his mouth lightly, "My subordinates are still investigating in the mountains. I wonder if the owner of the village is willing to take me around the village?"

"my pleasure."

Bailiyu got up immediately, "Prince, please."

He took Ling Yan to the backyard, where the disciples in uniform were practicing swords.

It looked like he was a novice, and his swordsmanship was still very unfamiliar. Among them, a little boy stood at the end of the team, holding a sword as tall as himself, and he almost tripped himself to the ground several times.

Ling Yan couldn't help but linger on him for a few more seconds.

Seeing this, Bailiyu said embarrassedly, "This is the kitchen cook's child. He has been in poor health since he was a child, and he has been practicing swords since he was a child. It can be regarded as strengthening his health."

"Ah."

Ling Yan showed no expression, watching the swords in these people's hands glowing white in the sun, without saying a word.

While someone behind him was reporting the matter to Bailiyu, Ling Yan made a look at the subordinate behind him, who immediately understood what he meant and left quickly.

Ling Yan stayed at the villa all morning, and when it was almost time, Bailiyu wanted to keep him for lunch, but Ling Yan declined.

Before leaving, he said, "This matter has already attracted the attention of the court. If the owner of Baili finds anyone suspicious, he should report it directly to the Yamen, and I will receive the news later."
