Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

Dongfang Bubai Yu Tao Shuobai did not go down the mountain, so he simply found another cave halfway up the mountain to live temporarily.

Dongfang Bubai said: "There is no need for those four people to come, you and I are quiet, wouldn't it be comfortable? I will never let you go hungry."

"Then I'll leave the dinner to you." Tao Shuobai tiptoed, flew lightly to the tree, leaned on the branch and smiled at the people below.

The moonlight is not too bright tonight, and it is covered by leaves, Tao Shuobai's figure can't be seen clearly under the shadow, but Dongfang Bubai is a master in the world, his eyesight is so sharp, he can easily lose his face and expression one by one in the eyes.Such a leisurely and lazy Tao Shuobai with a teasing smile is very rare, as for looking dazzled.

After regaining his senses, he laughed at himself and went to prepare dinner.

Naturally, eating on the mountain is not so particular. I caught two rabbits, peeled and removed the internal organs, cleaned them, put on the seasoned rice noodles that I brought with me, and roasted them on the fire.Dongfang Bubai pulled out the dagger in his boot, and cut the rabbit meat from time to time to let the smell go in.

Tao Shuobai came back from the forest, holding two bamboo tubes filled with clean mountain spring water.

Seeing him come back, Dongfang Bubai put down his dagger, and handed him something wrapped in a big green leaf beside him: "I'm lucky, I actually encountered mulberry fruit, which relieves my tiredness after eating."

Tao Shuobai picked it up, and saw that it was full of purple-red ripe mulberries, sweet and juicy, slightly sour.After eating two, he stuffed another one into Dongfang's mouth.

"Taste it." Dongfang Bubai cut the roasted rabbit meat into strips, placed it on a clean green leaf, and handed it to him.

People in the rivers and lakes often travel outside, and it is common to eat and sleep in the open. In addition to eating dry food, they can occasionally make game seasoning. Lighting a fire and barbecue is a must-have skill.In the past, Dongfang Bubai’s barbecue was just roasted with salt, but now there are flavored rice noodles specially blended with various spices, as well as high-quality chili rice noodles. The aroma of barbecue wafts out, very craving.

Tao Shuobai ate half of the rabbit meat, and Dongfang Bubai took care of the remaining one and a half.

The cave where we settled was not big, but fortunately it was dry, and after cleaning it, we could live there.Dongfang Bubai had already prepared a layer of soft tree branches on the ground to insulate the smell and moisture of the soil, and then spread the cloak on it, which was passable.

"I've wronged you." After all, the conditions on the mountain are rough, and Dongfang Bubai himself has never had such an experience for many years, let alone Tao Shuobai's company to endure hardships, he feels very sorry.

"You and I have come to this point, it's okay if we don't sleep all night." Tao Shuobai sat on the "bed", felt quite stable, and lay down.

Dongfang Bubai added two sticks of firewood to the fire, and lay down next to him. Apart from the occasional crackling of the fire, there was only the sound of insects and wind in the forest, and it was very quiet.

"What's wrong with that Lin Pingzhi?" Dongfang Bubai remembered the past, but didn't think about it.

"He is no longer the original Lin Pingzhi. He may have come from somewhere. He unexpectedly resurrected from a dead body. He is different from the evil flower-picking ghost back then."

"Borrowing the corpse to return the soul?" Dongfang Bubai was still surprised after all, and sighed with a low smile: "There really are no wonders in the world."

"I got a very interesting piece of news." Tao Shuobai also just learned about this from Uncle Mu tonight, and he said, "I've been letting them pay attention to the movements of Jianghu, and it's also because of Lin Pingzhi that Fuzhou They didn't relax there, they just wanted to see who could find out the "Evil Repelling Sword Manual". Not long ago, two groups of people visited the old house of the Lin family, almost alone. The two groups collided with each other. , A fight broke out. One of them used the Qingcheng School's sword technique, while the other used a saber, opening and closing, majestic and domineering."

Dongfang Bubai was surprised when he heard the words: "Qingcheng faction? The Qingcheng faction is looking for Lin Pingzhi everywhere, trying to find out the whereabouts of the evil sword manual. At this time, people from the Qingcheng faction appeared in the old house of the Lin family. Could it be that things are hidden there? But It doesn't make sense. Yu Canghai and his party just left Hengshan and lost Lin Zhennan and his wife. Now they are very angry. How did they know that the Lin family's old house hides things? The key is, besides the Qingcheng faction, there are people secretly coveting it? "

"I will always know." Tao Shuobai guessed that it was someone similar to Lin Pingzhi, but the two of them went to the old house of the Lin family almost at the same time, which is not unusual.

The two stayed in Huashan for five or six days, and Dongfang Bubai was very rewarding, so they bid farewell to Feng Qingyang and went back to Blackwood Cliff for retreat.Although Tao Shuobai came out for a strange soul, seeing that Lin Pingzhi is more harmless than his original body, he naturally didn't want to make things difficult, but there are two other people who need to pay attention.

The two people who appeared in the old house of the Lin family that Dongfang Bubai mentioned before were actually two other strange souls. Uncle Mu also found out the current identities of the two, but they had a lot of overlap with Lin Pingzhi.

"Don't care about your business?" Dongfang Bubai asked.

"It's fine for the time being, I'll go back with you." Even if he knew that Heimuya was safe now, but Dongfang Bubai retreated, if he didn't watch it personally, he would be worried after all.

At this time, Lin Pingzhi arrived in Luoyang.

He was very tense all the way, not because he was afraid of the royal family of Jindaomen, but because he was afraid of Yue Buqun.Originally there were only him and Linghu Chong, but after the Lin family couple were buried, they met a group of Huashan sect disciples on the way the next day.Everyone was happy to meet again, Ning Zhong and Huashan's disciples surrounded Linghu Chong to ask questions, Junior Sister Yue Lingshan was worried and complained, Linghu Chong was coaxing again.

Among these disciples, the second apprentice Lao Denuo and the younger junior sister Yue Lingshan met Lin Pingzhi face to face, recognized him, and called him by his name.

Everyone in the Huashan faction felt sympathy for the Fuwei Escort, and angrily accused the Qingcheng faction.

Yue Buqun, as the head of Huashan Mountain, also known as the gentleman's sword, also sighed, expressing that he would not join forces with the Qingcheng faction.When they learned that he was coming to Luoyang, they said they would escort him and take a group of disciples on a tour by the way.

What else could Lin Pingzhi do besides expressing his gratitude?

He knew Yue Buqun's face as a hypocrite, so even if Yue Buqun acted like an upright and humble elder, he still felt that the other party's eyes were sinister and full of calculations.

Linghu Chong spent a long time with him, and found that he was taciturn and afraid to get along with others, especially when facing his master, he was very nervous and reserved, so he smiled and said: "Brother Lin, don't think that my master's serious face is very scary. Very good. As you know, when people mention my master in the Jianghu, they call it "Gentleman's Sword", which is enough to show my master's character. Besides, now that we have successfully arrived in Luoyang, the Golden Sword King's family is the first one in Luoyang. , with your grandfather and the others around, you don’t have to be afraid of the Qingcheng faction.”

Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Pingzhi sighed and said the truth: "Brother Linghu, to be honest, although our Lin family and Wang family are related by marriage, we have not been close in recent years. I am also worried about coming here. It will cause trouble for grandpa."

Linghu Chong couldn't hear his voice, so he patted him on the shoulder boldly and said, "Don't worry, no matter what happens to the Wang family, you still have me as a big brother!"

The Huashan faction lives in the inn for the time being, while Lin Pingzhi, accompanied by Linghu Chong, goes to visit the Wang family.

When Golden Sword King Yuanba heard about Lin Pingzhi's arrival, he was really surprised and hurried to the front hall with his two sons, and two more young masters Sun also followed after hearing this.

"Pingzhi? It's really Pingzhi!" Although Wang Yuanba hadn't seen Lin Pingzhi's grandson for many years, Lin Pingzhi's appearance was inherited from Mrs. Wang, and he was quite similar.

"Pingzhi met grandpa, two uncles, and two cousins." Lin Pingzhi saw the few people who appeared and knew their identities.

"Where are your parents?" Wang Yuanba asked.

"Father, mother, father and mother have passed away." Lin Pingzhi lowered his head with a sad expression.In a blink of an eye, he concealed his emotions, and hurriedly introduced the person to Wang Yuanba: "Grandpa, this is Linghu Chong, a high disciple of the Huashan School. This time, my grandson was able to escape from danger, thanks to Brother Linghu. Head Yue of the Huashan Sect brought along a group of disciples to protect him and helped his grandson a lot."

"Oh? Gao Yi, the head of Yue. Since the head of Yue has arrived in Luoyang, he is naturally a distinguished guest of my Wang family. Young Xia Linghu, thank you for saving Pingzhi, be careful, and I hope you don't dislike him." Although the story is different, But the wealth of the Wang family is still the same, and it is also very ostentatious. Wang Yuanba immediately ordered someone to fetch 500 taels of silver notes and give them to Linghu Chong.

Perhaps this is different from the original drama. As Lin Pingzhi's savior, it seems that he has a good relationship, and Wang Yuanba is naturally generous.

Faced with the Wang family's move, Linghu Chong felt disgusted, and before he could express anything, he listened to Lin Pingzhi's persuasion: "Grandpa, brother Linghu has done me a great favor, so he wants to repay me, but I just hope that grandpa will give me the opportunity to repay you." Pingzhi. If grandpa wants to thank him, it is better to treat him to a good wine. Brother Linghu is addicted to alcohol, so grandpa let him taste Luoyang's good wine."

"Okay! There are all kinds of good wine." Wang Yuanba had just seen some clues from Linghu Chong's eyebrows, if Lin Pingzhi hadn't reconciled it, how could he have given a Huashan disciple face.Wang Yuanba immediately ordered: "Come here, move the top quality Dukang wine to ten jars."

"Thank you, Mr. Wang." Linghu Chong couldn't understand this kind of person's high-spirited and ostentatious face, but for Lin Pingzhi's sake, after thinking about it, he still endured it.He was afraid that the disturbance would be ugly, and that it would make the Wang family angry at Lin Pingzhi. Wouldn't it be his fault that the ancestral family, which was not very close to him, treated Lin Pingzhi more contemptuously?

Linghu Chong had always had a free and unrestrained temperament, so it was almost the first time he swallowed his anger after thinking about it this way.

Afterwards, Wang Yuanba took his two sons to the inn to pick up Yue Buqun, with all the horses and chariots ready, full of ostentation.When they arrived at the inn, the two Uncle Wang had already prepared to give each of the disciples of the Huashan School a welcome gift of 40 taels of silver notes. The disciples were not of Linghu Chong's temperament, and either accepted them politely or were pleasantly surprised. They hadn't gone to Wang's house yet. , are already discussing how to spend the money.

That night, the Wang family hosted a banquet for the Huashan faction, also to thank them for their kindness to Lin Pingzhi.

Lin Pingzhi saw his grandparents, uncles, aunts, and two cousins, and he cried a lot, and was treated like a distinguished guest.Finally, I took a hot bath comfortably, and changed into brocade clothes and belts. It is really rich and elegant, rich and beautiful, and anyone who sees it will shine.

Ning Zhong had a straightforward temperament. When he saw Lin Pingzhi like this, he praised him: "What a handsome man, really rare. Hero Wang is very lucky. His sons and grandchildren are outstanding, and his grandson is also so handsome."

Yue Lingshan had met Lin Pingzhi earlier when she was disguised as an ugly girl, but at that time Lin Pingzhi had just returned from the escort, so he was full of dust and dust, so he was not as dazzling as he is today.She couldn't help but said to Linghu Chong who was beside her: "Brother, this Young Master of Fuwei Escort Bureau is really good-looking."

"A man doesn't like others to always pay attention to his appearance, but Brother Lin is indeed born well." Linghu Chong found that Lin Pingzhi seemed to be a little out of his mind.

After the banquet, Linghu Chong came to look for Lin Pingzhi, but Lin Pingzhi was not there.

At this time Lin Pingzhi was in Wang Yuanba's study, along with his two uncles.Ever since they met during the day, they have been busy with other things, and they couldn't find a good time to talk alone. Now that they had entertained the Huashan sect, and finally had time, Wang Yuanba specially came to ask about some details of the Lin family's affairs.

Talking about the tragedy of the Lin family, Wang Yuanba was full of grief and indignation: "The Qingcheng sect is simply deceiving people too much!"

Other than that, Wang Yuanba didn't mention Lin Pingzhi's decision at all, and the dead Mrs. Wang was his daughter, but he didn't say any extra words of sympathy.It can be seen that although the two families are relatives by marriage, they are indeed very estranged, and the only relationship left between them is the skin of relatives by marriage.

Lin Pingzhi naturally had to be secretly vigilant.

"By the way, Pingzhi, did your parents tell you the whereabouts of the evil sword manual before they died?" Wang Yuanba really asked about the sword manual.

"No." Lin Pingzhi denied it, and didn't even mention any last words.

Lin Pingzhi in the original play has no experience in the world, and he doesn't know the sinister people. He mistrusts Mu Gaofeng and Yue Buqun, and even what the Wang family is planning is unknown.Today's Lin Pingzhi dare not say how smart and vigilant he is, but he has a little advantage. He knows that Yue Buqun will not be trusted, and he also knows that he should not place too much hope on his ancestors.

"Think about it again, your parents didn't have anything to say to you before they died?" Wang Yuanba asked again unwillingly.

"Indeed not. My father just told me to leave quickly, saying that there are bad people hiding nearby, and told me not to take revenge before I have practiced martial arts well." Lin Pingzhi lowered his head pretending to be sad: "Maybe I haven't finished in time. , When I found my parents, they couldn't say a few words."

Seeing that there was really nothing to ask, Wang Yuanba had no choice but to give up.

When Lin Pingzhi returned to his residence, he saw Linghu Chong standing in the yard drinking, he was a little surprised: "Brother Linghu?"

"Brother Lin, you are back." Linghu Chong looked at his face, and found that his mind seemed to be more serious.He patted the small wine jar in his hand, and invited with a smile: "Would you like to drink? Get drunk to relieve your worries."

After hearing this, Lin Pingzhi realized that he was worried about himself, so he invited someone into the room and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to stay here for long."

"what happened?"

"Grandpa and the others are also interested in our family's swordsmanship, but my father did not say anything about the swordsmanship when he died, but said that the old things passed down from our family should be kept properly, and I am not allowed to take revenge rashly." Facing Linghu Chong , Lin Pingzhi felt relaxed, took two sips of the wine in his hand, and choked a bit, but he felt that the alcohol was not very high, and the spicy taste went straight into his throat. For a man, this kind of drink is very satisfying.

His complexion was already fair, but he coughed a few times because of the wine, his face was slightly flushed, and under the light of the candle, it made people dare not breathe.

Linghu Chong seemed to have been stabbed, so he quickly withdrew his gaze and stabilized his emotions. When he remembered the banquet, he saw that his face was not good, and asked, "Did you have any business before?"

Lin Pingzhi frowned: "It's nothing, it's just that my second cousin Wang Jiaju came to talk to me, and I think what he asked is very strange."

Whether it was an illusion or not, Lin Pingzhi always felt that Wang Jiaju was trying to trick him, but the other party just asked him about his journey, how he met Linghu Chong, how he was with the Huashan faction, etc.

He thought he was thinking too much about this matter, so he turned his head and forgot about it.

The Wang family entertained the Huashan faction, and everyone had fun in the city.Lin Pingzhi was half of the host, so he brought Linghu Chong, Yue Lingshan, and Lu Da around for a while that day, and when he came back, he saw Wang Jiaju on the street.

Yue Lingshan asked curiously: "Mr. Lin, does Young Master Wang still like rhythm?"

"What? I've never heard of my cousin having such a hobby."

"But I just saw him come out of the shop selling musical instruments, and he seems to have bought a piano."

"...Oh, it's probably new." Lin Pingzhi frowned secretly, feeling that Wang Jiaju was weird.The Wang family practiced swordsmanship, and the offensive was fierce and murderous. The Wang family practiced martial arts and swords since they were young, and they didn't like literary things, let alone practice piano with patience.Moreover, Wang Jiaju only bought the piano now instead of asking his servants to buy it, maybe there is some insider information.

In the evening, Linghu Chong was about to go out to drink with Lin Pingzhi, but was stopped by Yue Lingshan.Yue Lingshan used to only go for a walk down the mountain once in a while, this was her first time traveling far away, and it was more enjoyable than playing in Hengshan Mountain. She was best with Linghu Chong since she was a child, so she dragged Linghu Chong and chatted a lot.

When Linghu Chong went out again, he happened to meet Wang Jiaju. It seemed that Wang Jiaju just came back from outside.

Linghu Chong was a guest at Wang's house, no matter what he couldn't turn a blind eye to him, so he just nodded and said hello.

"Young Hero Linghu, didn't you accompany Miss Yue to go shopping at the night market? The night market in the city is still very lively." Wang Jiaju spoke kindly, but the look in his eyes showed a bit of contempt, sarcasm, and inexplicable hostility and coolness.

"I'm not as relaxed as Young Master Wang." Linghu Chong felt that this Wang Jiaju was indeed a bit weird, and the rest of the Wang family might look down on others from above, but they would not show such hostility.

He remembered that Lin Pingzhi also said that Wang Jiaju was a little strange, so he immediately found Lin Pingzhi and told him about it.

"Is there such a thing?" Lin Pingzhi was very surprised, he was thinking the same as Linghu Chong, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt uneasy, and he always ignored something.

"Tell me, is this cousin of yours hiding in a golden house? Maybe he bought that piano as a gift." Linghu Chong guessed wildly.

"No way." Lin Pingzhi was not sure, as if something was about to jump out of his mind faintly, but he missed the key point, but he just couldn't catch it.

"Forget it, don't think about it, I'll ask you to be your guide, how about going to the night market?" Linghu Chong pulled him out as he said that, just in time to see Yue Lingshan coming in from the courtyard, a little strange: "Little sister?"

"Master brother, you are here too. I just heard from my parents that we are leaving tomorrow, and Lu Hou'er and I are reluctant to part with it. They want to ask Mr. Lin to take us out to play."

"We were just talking about going out, and going together will be more lively." Lin Pingzhi looked at the smart and pretty junior sister, and sighed in his heart. If her father hadn't been Yue Buqun, he would definitely have pursued the younger junior sister as his wife, and Linghu Chong would be cheaper now. La.Without the score of Xiaoao Jianghu, without doubts and questions, without the opportunity to meet Ren Yingying, the couple of gods and immortals should be forgotten, but Linghu Chong and the little junior sister have no misunderstandings, no accidents, and they will definitely be together in the future. couple.

Thinking of this, Lin Pingzhi was inevitably jealous, but he didn't have time to think about getting married right now, how to live well was the big thing.

A group of people went out, scattered on the busy street, and dispersed after a while.

Linghu Chong and Yue Lingshan were together, the girl was very powerful when she went shopping, Linghu Chong was used to taking care of her, helping pay the money for a while, and helping with the things for a while, naturally separated from Lin Pingzhi.

Lin Pingzhi didn't care, because he suddenly saw Wang Jiaju, and followed behind him quietly.Although he picked up the body of the original owner, his memory has not been inherited, and he does not understand the martial arts of the original body. Now his body is good because of the foundation left by the original body and the effect of the health-enhancing pills he ate before, but Wang Jiaju is different , the other party used a set of family sword skills to win Yue Buqun's appreciation.Although there is suspicion of talking on the scene, if Wang Jiaju's martial arts is not good, how can Wang Yuanba let him show his eyes.

Thanks to the bustling street market where people come and go, Lin Pingzhi is not conspicuous in it, so Wang Jiaju didn't notice it.

Soon Wang Jiaju went astray and entered an alley.

Lin Pingzhi didn't dare to get too close, there were almost no pedestrians here, and he didn't know how to "land silently", if Wang Jiaju found out, he would be in trouble.The alley in front of me is very narrow. Because there is no light, it looks dark at night, but there seems to be a little light at the far end. When the night wind blows, it seems to hear the rustling of bamboo leaves.

bamboo?There are bamboo forests in the alleys in this lively and prosperous Luoyang city?

Green Bamboo Lane!Green Bamboo Man!

Lin Pingzhi finally thought of the extremely important location in the original play. After all, Linghu Chong met Ren Yingying in this Green Bamboo Lane when he was most frustrated, confused and painful.

Wang Jiaju went to Green Bamboo Lane?Based on the situation of the past two days, it is obvious that Wang Jiaju is not the first time back, and he has gained the favor of Lvzhuweng or Ren Yingying, and he often goes in and out to enjoy the rhythm together.

Then the problem arises. In the original drama, Wang Jiaju basically doesn't have any roles, and he doesn't know about the masters in Green Bamboo Lane. The key is that his preference for music doesn't fit the temperament of the Wang family.Wang Jiaju's transformation was not accidental. Although he changed Lin Pingzhi's fate, he just arrived in Luoyang. Wang Jiaju—is he a time traveler?

There were two names lit up in the friend column of the system, and he had been guessing that the three had encountered the same situation. If so, could Wang Jiaju be one of the "lonely lamp" and "a bright moon"?If so, it makes sense.Knowing the plot and being in Luoyang, whether you want power or beauty, you can get them from Green Bamboo Alley.More likely, the other two also have a system, and the system has issued a task, which can benefit greatly from it.

Thinking of this, he broke out in cold sweat.

While he's been avoiding the most rewarding missions, not everyone faces the same dilemma.If he is not "Lin Pingzhi", then he will definitely not choose to get to know Linghu Chong first, but will follow the plot and get the money from the Changsha branch...

"Brother Lin, why did you come here? I found that you disappeared, and I have been looking for it for a long time." Linghu Chong suddenly appeared, panting slightly, with worried eyes.

"...I just went the wrong way. Let's go back." The panic gradually calmed down after seeing the person coming. I have to say that with such a friend by my side, I feel very safe, regardless of whether he is the protagonist or not .
