Chapter 123
Fu Qingping exhaled slowly.
He did not ask the last question as agreed.
"I understand," he said, "Master Lin, rest assured. Haihun City will do its best to cooperate. As for Lingguan, I will go with you to make sure that nothing goes wrong."
This person changes quickly, and once he makes up his mind, he is quite proactive.
Fu Qingping is a decisive person. The main reason why Lin Qinghen is cooperating with Haihun City despite past grudges is because of him. He is clear-headed and decisive, can make decisions, and will not play tricks when it comes to major issues.
Bai Muchuan's ability only allows him to be a deputy, and it seems there is a reason for that.
With the two of them at Lingguan, they didn't spend too much time there. The person in charge there was always friendly and smiling all day long. Lin Qinghen felt that he didn't look like a weapon refiner, but more like Maitreya Buddha.
But it is true that in this situation, following along is the best option, and sometimes not thinking too much is a blessing.
Each of the three cities sent out people, and Lin Qinghen was outside making all these arrangements in full swing, and he had to keep this action secret. At the same time, he did not forget about Song Xuemiao.
The two sides have been in contact, but Lin Qinghen has not given a definite reply. He keeps her in suspense, just like flying a kite. There is no definite answer as to whether he is willing to accept her or not.
It wasn't long before she started to get anxious.
Relying on the wolf clan, Lin Qinghen established stable communication with her without being discovered by the people of Lincheng.
What Song Xuemiao didn't realize was that Yu Yinyin's bee crystal butterfly was also looking for opportunities to stare at her.
At the moment, it is unclear who is instigating this. The girl's daily nervousness and hesitation do not seem to be pretended. She is even a little jumpy. Sometimes she does not even hide her dissatisfaction with Wang Yulin, and looks like she is ready to run away at any time.
But if it was her own idea, Lin Qinghen was also curious about the reason.
When she was asked the reason at first, Song Xuemiao just said that she was punished and felt that Wang Yulin was unkind. She was angry and aggrieved and didn't want to stay here anymore.
But Lin Qinghen didn't believe it. Qin Xiang was always strict and she had never thought of running away before.
When the questions got a little deeper, Song Xuemiao started to tell some big truths.
She said that when she heard that Lin Qinghen gave a large sum of money to Lin Yunsi and Li Yan, she naturally felt that Lei City was much better than Wang Yulin.
She had lived in Wang Yulin College for more than ten years, working diligently, but what she got was not even one-tenth of what Lin Yunsi got.
The implication is that this is for the welfare.
This was barely plausible, but Lin Qinghen always felt that she was hesitating, as if she was hiding something, so he still did not give a definite answer.
After a while, Song Xue Miao became more and more anxious.
She seemed to be afraid that she would not be able to leave at a certain time, and was also afraid that if these actions were discovered, she would be in trouble. Then Lin Qinghen heard the reason she was hiding in her heart.
"I heard some news about the competition between Wang Yulin and the Yin family inside," Song Xuemiao said, "Your Yin family is not simple, and we have no other choice."
Um?
What does the competition in the ruins have to do with you? Lin Qinghen really didn't expect this.
And where did Song Xuemiao get the news? And where did the following words come from?
The competition between the Yin family and Wang Yulin is still ongoing. This kind of competition inside the ruins will take a long time. In the jungle competition, one must first familiarize oneself with the environment, fight for territory, and finally compare the resources obtained. These are all time-consuming competition contents.
Qin Xiang, of course, thought that the longer it was, the better, so that he would have more opportunities to take action until the end.
The final duration was one month. This group of teenagers were basically from high-star Xuan level to low-star Earth level. If they didn't compete, they would have to stay in the middle circle for about this long.
It's now more than halfway done.
After the area was marked, outsiders could not survey it. The situation in the ruins was complicated and no one could tell what was going on.
However, the magic weapon can be used to transmit messages occasionally, and some news will be transmitted intermittently. Lin Qinghen only knows that the battle situation is now tense and it is unclear who is winning or losing. Both sides have injuries, and some are seriously injured, but fortunately no one has lost his life so far.
But how could the things inside affect Song Xuemiao's escape? She didn't participate in the battle.
After asking clearly, he found out that the captain of the second team in Wang Yulin's team was Song Xuemiao's childhood sweetheart.
Their name is Ding Lian. They grew up together and at this age, there is only a thin layer of window paper between them. They can be considered a tacit couple.
After losing the game, it was the first time that Song Xue Miao received such a severe punishment. She felt resentful when she was recuperating from her injuries, and kept thinking about the intimate way Lin Yunsi and Lin Qinghen divided the money. She felt that she couldn't stay in this place, so she turned around to discuss it with her Ding Lian.
"Lian Ge, why don't we stay in the City of Tears," she said, "and not go back. I think it's much better here."
Ding Lian is a few years older than her and is now twenty years old. He has considerable talent and a calmer character. Naturally, he has some ability to be the captain of the second team.
Although I felt distressed at the time, I did not agree and advised her not to think too much about it.
Is it so easy to get away from Wang Yulin?
The two of them had a small quarrel over something they didn't agree on. Although Ding Lian didn't dare to think of leaving Lincheng at that time, the other party's words did leave a knot in his heart.
He entered the ruins in the following days.
As the team leader, Ding Lian had a communication magic weapon on him, and occasionally he could seize the opportunity to pass on a message to the outside world, but he was selfish and spent some of his time on passing messages on Song Xuemiao.
Everything was fine in the first few days, but things started to go wrong later. There were some things he couldn't tell the people at Wang Yulin College, so he told Song Xuemiao everything.
"Master Lin, you don't know that those people in Team 1 have been bullying us in the academy. They rely on their powerful backgrounds to do disgusting things. Now they are trying to steal things during the competition. They are so shameless!" Song Xuemiao said to him, "Brother Lian's waist injury has not healed yet. It's all because of them. I really can't stay in Wang Yulin anymore!"
She had been hesitant before, but after knowing this, she resolutely took her sister to contact Lin Qinghen.
Song Xuemiao is not stupid either.
She knew that Qin Xiang brought them to fight this game in a roundabout way because he didn't want to confront these three cities head-on.
Yin Hengxie is really powerful now. Even if their principal comes, he may not be able to defeat him. The family guard equipment left by the Yin family is gradually recovering. It is said that Lingguan is helping. Haihun City is already quite powerful... With all these factors combined, if they really run away, Lin Qinghen's place is probably the only place that can shelter them without being retaliated by Wang Yulin.
But when Lin Qinghen heard the news, he was also stunned for a moment.
Wang Yulin is also having an internal conflict in the ruins, right?
There's no need for that. Besides, not all of those people are reckless. If they start an internal conflict at this time, they will be in big trouble later.
He felt that this matter was not that simple, so he softened his attitude, meaning that he could accept Song Xuemiao. If there were no traps, it would be good to have two alchemists with excellent talents.
Then Song Xue Miao relaxed and quickly told him all the news she had heard from Ding Lian.
Although the news was only from Ding Lian's perspective and a bit disjointed, Lin Qinghen felt something was not right the more he listened.
He didn't believe that this matter would not have been fanned by others.
...It was Yin Rongyu who did it, right?
Lin Qinghen guessed right.
Yin Rongyu had not been focusing on the right path before, but this time after entering the ruins, he was indeed honest and very responsible in the first three days.
First of all, according to the contents of the booklet given by his family, he went to check out the venue himself and had a general grasp of the entire stadium. Then he arranged places not only for his own team, but also for the remaining five teams, analyzed the pros and cons, and played a leading role perfectly.
He even took everyone into consideration, took the initiative to discuss with everyone, and took good care of everyone's feelings and safety.
Anyway, it’s very different from before.
The circled area was very large, and their initial strategy was to hide first, not to engage in direct conflict with the opponent, to retain their strength, and to take the inferior resources first.
At the beginning, there were abundant resources here and many places to hide, so it was relatively easy to avoid the other side. After all, in terms of overall strength, they were indeed not at an advantage over Wang Yulin.
The competition lasts too long, so you need to prepare for the long term.
But they couldn't hide forever. Around the sixth day, Yin Ye, as the captain of the second team, began to lose his patience.
They have been hiding all the time, so the resources they can collect are very limited. If they continue like this, the gap will only get bigger and bigger, and they are afraid that they won't be able to make up for it later.
He no longer had the energy to bully people at home, and his tone still had some of the impatience from before: "The prize also includes the knee pads my father used. Rong Yu, we really can't lose!"
"Don't worry," Yin Rongyu comforted him, "I want to win more than you do."
From the moment he knew he was going to enter the ruins, he began to make plans in his mind.
First of all, the head of the family must have known about the ruins a long time ago, especially when he arrived at the place and took a look, Yin Rongyu understood it even more clearly.
Lin Qinghen had been repairing that road several months ago. For some reason, the construction suddenly stopped. Perhaps he had discovered the clue at that time.
From this perspective, the fact that Lin Qinghen delayed the alchemist competition for another month meant that he had made up his mind to send them here from the beginning.
If they really had to compete in a ring match, the Yin family's chances of winning would be very low. The generation trained by Wang Yulin is no pushover.
But once you enter the ruins, things become complicated.
"You and Lin Qinghen should learn from this and stay calm," Yin Rongyu said, "In this kind of competition, pure force is secondary, and planning and tactics are the main thing."
As soon as he mentioned Lin Qinghen, veins on Yin Ye's head jumped. He was subconsciously a little scared and immediately replied, "So what did you learn?"
"First of all, the 30 people in the six teams of our Yin family must unite. No matter who falls behind or who is injured, we must help. The result of the game is based on the overall gain ratio. We are divided into teams because Wang Yulin Academy is used to training by team, so we have this correspondence. In fact, we are one." Yin Rongyu said, "But Wang Yulin does not have to be united."
Yin Ye was stunned, then muttered to himself.
"You want to sow discord again. Didn't you say you wouldn't do this? If you get whipped by Lin Qinghen again, I won't accompany you..."
"This time we are dealing with outsiders, not our own people, so it's different." Yin Rongyu said confidently, "Wang Yulin used my mother's belongings to threaten the Yin family. He is ungrateful and doesn't deserve to be upright. I think that's what Lin Qinghen meant by sending us here."
He'll do anything as long as he can win.
