The Qingzhou coalition army set up 186 military camps on the south bank of the Qingjiang River, including 65 water camps, and cooperated with thousands of beacon towers to firmly control the defense line of the Qingjiang River for thousands of miles.
Among the many military camps, there are three main camps, which are controlled by the clan alliance, the immortal sect, and the martial sect, respectively, and are in charge of the defense affairs on the south bank of the Qingjiang River.
At the enthusiastic invitation of Lin Jingzhao, Lin Jiang came to the main camp of the clan alliance. Along the way, Lin Jingzhao introduced Lin Jiang to the glorious past of the Lin family, and even mentioned the immortal cultivation era. Of course, there were many mistakes, and Lin Jiang would not point them out.
"It turns out that the Lin family has used four sets of generation names. The current generation names are Qisheng Xuehai, Jingxing Qingyun, Tengzhi Guanghui, and Wandai Xinglong, sixteen generations."
Lin Jiang sighed in his heart. He is the second generation of the Lin family. Lin Jingzhao is his descendant sixty or seventy generations apart.
Lin Jiang entered the camp and soon alarmed the top leaders of the Lin family. After a while, an old man appeared.
"Lin Jingzhao, where is the martial saint of Xia?"
The old man's voice was loud and clear. He hadn't arrived yet, but his voice had arrived.
"Grandpa Haiqing, Senior Zhang is here."
"Surname Zhang, from the Chu State Zhang family?"
Lin Haiqing walked in front of Lin Jiang and asked. The Chu State Zhang family was also a well-known martial arts family with a martial saint in the family.
"No, a wanderer in the mountains and fields."
"Is the martial arts of Xia State so prosperous? Can a wanderer in the mountains and fields achieve the realm of martial saint?"
"How can a wanderer in the mountains and fields not achieve the realm of martial arts?"
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Lin Jiang quickly stretched out his hand. Lin Haiqing was stunned, then laughed, and stretched out his hand to shake with Lin Jiang .
In the era of cultivating immortals, one could test the other party's background with spiritual consciousness. Now, it is this handshake, not with one hand, but with two hands.
The two held hands together and immediately activated their internal energy. Lin Jiang's hand immediately showed a green light, while Lin Haiqing's hand was red. The two colors intersected with each other and were suppressing each other.
In fact, once they started fighting, Lin Haiqing could confirm that Lin Jiang had the level of a martial saint, but since it had begun, it was time to see who was better, and neither of them had any intention of stopping.
As both sides gradually increased the stakes, the atmosphere became more and more tense, especially Lin Haiqing, whose forehead was sweating after a while. On the other hand, although Lin Jiang was wearing a mask, he could feel that Lin Jiang was calm and composed.
"Grandpa Haiqing"
Lin Jingzhao and others also saw that something was wrong. Their Grandpa Haiqing was not going to lose, was he? This was impossible, as Grandpa Haiqing had been promoted to a martial saint twenty years ago.
"Huh"
After a while, Lin Jiang suddenly pulled his hand back, and Lin Haiqing was shocked and gasped.
"Senior Lin has outstanding martial arts skills, and Zhang Mazi lost"
"No need, I, Lin Haiqing, can afford to lose, it was me who lost, and Qingzhou follows the ancient etiquette, and each other calls each other fellow Taoists"
Lin Haiqing wiped the sweat from his forehead and said carelessly, he used 100% of his strength, and he didn't know how much Lin Jiang used, anyway, he could see that he didn't use his full strength.
"Fellow Daoist Lin has a broad mind and a broad heart. Zhang admires him."
Lin Jiang bowed his hands. He really admired Lin Haiqing. It was great that he had such a broad mind and temperament.
"There is nothing to admire. It's martial arts. One is one and two is two. If you are not as good as others, you are not as good as others. Now you can give me face. Can the enemies on the battlefield give me face?"
"That's right."
"Lin Jingzhao, Lin Jingwen, go prepare a banquet. I want to drink with fellow Daoist Zhang today."
Lin Haiqing turned around and winked at Lin Jingzhao, go get the strong liquor quickly. We have to beat this guy tonight. It's better to finalize the sworn brotherhood or the son-in-law in one night.
Lin Haiqing enthusiastically pulled Lin Jiang to sit down and chat slowly. He asked some questions about Lin Jiang's identity, but Lin Jiang covered them up vaguely. Lin Haiqing didn't ask much, and changed the subject again, asking Lin Jiang the purpose of coming here.
"I have been in seclusion in the mountains for many years. I only learned about the monsters in the northern border a few days ago, so I came to the northern border to see what the monsters look like."
"When things are abnormal, there must be monsters. Those who look different from us are naturally monsters. Fellow Daoist Zhang, don't go to see them. Come to the battlefield with me. We will fight side by side and kill monsters together."
"Fellow Daoist Lin, has this monster repeatedly violated the border?"
"Yes, we have found out clearly. It is very difficult for monsters to give birth. The mortality rate of female monsters is very high. Sometimes it is a one-for-one result. So the monsters kidnapped our human women and raped them to give birth to offspring for them. For the sake of offspring, they went crazy and attacked our defense line in waves. Later, we gave up the defense line north of Qingjiang River and used Qingjiang River as a natural barrier. They could not attack on a large scale, but small teams of monsters often infiltrated, and we couldn't defend against them."
"What will happen to a human woman after she gives birth to a monster?"
"Of course she'll die. Think about it, some monsters have the bodies of beasts, so how big must they be? It would be strange if they didn't die if they burst out of their stomachs. Moreover, the first thing those monster babies do after they are born is to eat the women who gave birth to them."
"How hateful!"
"Yes, it's hateful. Those who are not of our kind must have different hearts. This monster is a major threat to our human race. Several of our families have long wanted to join forces with the Xia Kingdom to wipe out the monster, but the Xia Kingdom is different. Their own people are fighting to the death, but they refuse to help us ."
Lin Haiqing said, and he started complaining about the Xia Kingdom. Lin Jiang imagined the scene that Lin Haiqing described. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. This monster really had to be killed.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, do you know where this monster came from?"
"The Lin family's ancestors said that this monster existed in the era of cultivating immortals, and was born from the combination of the human race and the monster race at that time. In the era of cultivating immortals, they were worse than pigs and dogs, and were sold out by the immortal cultivators for fun. Now that they can't cultivate immortals, they have become more powerful. By the way, Fellow Daoist Zhang, do you know immortal cultivators?"
"I don't know."
"Hey, you don't know about this, then I know, do you know how my Lin family came about..."
Lin Haiqing immediately became excited. Okay, you country bumpkin, let me tell you the history of the Lin family to shock you. What
Lin Haiqing said was similar to what Lin Jingzhao said before, meaning that the history of the Lin family is long and has been passed down from the era of cultivating immortals. As for what the era of cultivating immortals was like, he also heard it from his elders. Anyway, they were able to fly into the sky and hide in the ground, cut a river with a sword, and smash a mountain with a palm.
Others in Qingzhou did not believe it, even many of the Lin family members themselves did not believe it. After all, they had never seen it, and they could not imagine how a person could smash a mountain with one palm. It was just that their ancestors had passed it down, so they just passed it down and regarded it as a capital for bragging.
Lin Haiqing's appearance reminded Lin Jiang of his former classmates. Those with the surname Zhu said that their ancestors were the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, those with the surname Li said that they were descendants of the Tang Dynasty Li family, and those with the surname Liu said that their ancestors could be traced back to Liu Bang, the first emperor of the Han Dynasty. When asked what evidence they had, they said that it was recorded in the family tree and that their family said so. It was ridiculous. In the end, after counting, wow, who didn't have a few awesome people in their ancestors.
Lin Jingzhao quickly got wine and food, especially fine wine, and directly pulled a few carts over. There were more than a dozen jars of the kind that weighed fifty kilograms each.
"Are you going to play a wine pool and a meat forest, taking a bath with fine wine?"
Lin Jiang laughed. In fact, how could he not know Lin Haiqing's little thoughts? He knew it too well.
Lin Jingzhao found a few people who had deep inner strength and could drink a lot to accompany him. People who practice martial arts know that the strength of alcohol can be forced out by inner strength. How much can be forced out depends on how deep the inner strength is. Therefore, to get a martial arts master drunk, you have to prepare a lot of wine, and play a round-robin game until the opponent's inner strength is exhausted.
There are eight members of the Lin family. Everyone finds various excuses to drink with Lin Jiang. Lin Jiang also accepts everyone, one bowl after another. After a while, white mist begins to appear on everyone's head. That is because they use their inner strength to force the strength of alcohol, just like cultivating immortals.
This drinking is very fast. After half an hour, two people were dragged down, and Lin Jiang's eyes were still clear.
After an hour, there were still four people left at the table.
After three hours, Lin Haiqing was the only one left at the table, and he even added wine twice.
Five hours later, Lin Haiqing's eyes were already blurry. He kept calling Lin Jiang his brother and said he wanted to marry his granddaughter to Lin Jiang, which frightened Lin Jiang.
Damn it, you call me brother but secretly want to be my grandfather?
Lin Jiang quickly threw Lin Haiqing out, and then ran to Qingjiang to fish in front of Lin Jingzhao and others. After being a fisherman for a few days, it would be unreasonable not to cast a few rods when he saw such a big river.
