Chapter 93 Old Lin
Shi Changqing glanced at their unfamiliar faces and asked, "Who are you all?"
"Oh, I forgot Shi Changqing didn't know what we looked like yet." Shang Guiliang swallowed a mouthful of hamburger, pointed at himself, and reintroduced himself: "I am Shang Guiliang, the Minotaur Warrior."
With one person taking the lead, the others gradually began to introduce themselves.
When it was Shi Yixin's turn, Shi Changqing paid special attention to her. After all, she was a multifaceted person. Today she was dressed in a beautiful royal sister style. After she finished introducing herself.
Shi Changqing asked, "Is this your real face?"
"no."
Shang Guiliang took a sip of water and glanced at her: "You are not being honest. We all show our true faces to others."
Wen Yuan nodded: "Yes."
"What does it have to do with me if you behave honestly? I didn't ask you to show your true face to others." Shi Yixin crossed his arms and replied expressionlessly.
This makes so much sense. They really have no right to ask the other party to show their true face.
Everyone just joked about it and didn't take it seriously.
Now that everyone is here, the purpose of this gathering is self-evident.
Everyone likes to speak frankly, so Bian Zhen took the lead and asked Shi Changqing:
"Why did you suddenly ask about Lao Lin in the middle of the night last night?"
"Before that, I want to confirm one thing. Has anyone of you enlisted in the military district?"
The five of them glanced at each other and were silent for a while. Finally, Wen Yuan said, "I."
Shi Changqing was surprised that some of these people actually entered the military area.
She did not reveal her relationship with Ye Weilan, but simply said, "I've heard that many military districts have recruited people like us who can fight monsters without mechas."
“What’s interesting is that these people all have a master named “Lao Lin”. Is this a coincidence or a coincidence?”
"Did your master tell you that there are other disciples?"
Shi Changqing brought up the topic directly and waited for their answers.
"If my memory serves me correctly, Master only has me as his disciple and cannot teach so many disciples in one go," Master Yixin said affirmatively.
Wen Yuan and Bian Zhen also nodded.
Guan Qin pondered for a moment and then said, "Shang Guiliang and I are from the same school. We can do it. Master only has us as his disciples."
Shang Guiliang: "That's right."
Then he looked at Shi Changqing and asked the question in his mind: "What are your master's physical characteristics?"
"The old man, he looks to be in his seventies or eighties, dressed in coarse linen clothes, with white hair and a hunched back."
"I don't agree with that, but they are indeed about the same age." Bian Zhen frowned and replied.
Her master has black hair and a straight back, and looks very strong and healthy.
Wen Yuan stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "My master is a sophisticated old man who likes to wear suits. His age is consistent with what you said."
Shi Yixin also made the same point: "They are about the same age."
Shang Guiliang and Guan Qin thought for a moment and nodded: "From your description, the only thing they are the same is age."
People’s clothing and appearance can change, but age cannot be reversed.
At least today's technology has not yet achieved this level.
In other words, it is very likely that they really come from the same school.
Before they left home, their master had instructed them not to reveal his name, so they have always adhered to this rule.
However, this rule was not always maintained. The master required them to not follow it for three years after they became apprentices.
In other words, after five years, you can destroy your own sect at will.
No one thought much about this.
It just so happened that this year was the fifth year since they started their apprenticeship. Shi Changqing had suddenly asked a question in the early hours of yesterday morning, and had accurately revealed the title "Lao Lin". They thought about it for a long time before deciding to reveal it to Shi Changqing.
Lao Lin’s age and appearance are both mentioned.
Then everyone reported their age when they started practicing.
Most of them are martial artists who have been practicing since childhood, otherwise they would not have achieved their current success.
But what surprised them the most was Shi Changqing, who had actually started practicing Taoism at the age of three.
They are basically around five or six years old, or seven or eight years old.
He started his apprenticeship when he was about seventeen or eighteen years old.
Shi Changqing listened to their conversation and asked again, "Did your master teach you kung fu in real life?"
Master Yixin: "In the beginning, I did. Later, I was given a pair of holographic glasses, which allowed me to enter the holographic scene and study with Master."
“.”
The other four people except Shi Changqing were all silent. Shi Yixin observed the atmosphere and looked at them: "You too."
The four nodded.
If that's the case, then it makes sense why the other party can accept so many disciples at the same time.
Maybe it's just one person.
"What about you?" Bian Zhen asked Shi Changqing.
She is the youngest among them, but also the most talented and the strongest. If they are really the same person, Lao Lin may have always been by her side, guiding her personally.
Shi Changqing certainly couldn't say that she had traveled through time, and until now she was still not sure whether she had traveled through time.
Even the face of this mysterious figure Lao Lin is unknown.
Therefore, Chang Qing could only say: "No, I have been wearing holographic glasses and learning from my master since I was a child."
This is also the closest result speculated by Shi Yunsheng and Ye Weilan.
The five people were shocked by this remark: "It's always been holographic glasses?"
Shi Changqing nodded hesitantly.
"You've been playing with holographic glasses since you were three years old? Can you tell the difference between reality and illusion at such a young age?" Guan Qin said.
Shi Changqing: “.”
This hit the nail on the head. She was now having trouble distinguishing between reality and falsehood.
They chatted with each other for a while and found out that these people were all orphans with the same background as she did in her original world.
But think about it, only orphans are easier to deal with, while children with parents are more likely to reveal clues.
She then realized that in this interstellar age, children could not wear holographic glasses so early.
Shi Changqing had experienced the holographic glasses of this world, which were as real as the real thing.
After thinking for a moment, she continued, "After saying so much, why not just let Old Lin come out and confront us face to face?"
Shang Guiliang touched his round belly and said, "That's a nice thing to say. After he left the army, he deleted all our contact information. There's no way we can't find him."
Guan Qin nodded: "Yes, after leaving the apprenticeship, he even took away his glasses."
The other three use silence to represent the same operation.
Shi Changqing: “.”
"By the way, you all had 3S mental power before, so why can't you control the mecha?"
"I don't know. I guess it's because we practiced internal strength. You can't have your cake and eat it too. We were even expelled from the Imperial Military Academy." Guan Qin sighed.
Only they know the bitterness and pain involved.
The 3S title was useless at first.
Shi Changqing asked doubtfully, "Then why don't you show off your unique abilities? With your abilities, you should be more than capable of fighting against the strange beasts."
"That being said, once this thing is exposed, it will attract a lot of attention, and I don't want it to be exposed to the public." Shi Yixin explained his reasons.
"I'm mainly wary of Master. Although he didn't say it can't be exposed to the public, I'm afraid of Master being implicated. Plus, a normal person can kill a monster with one punch. I'm afraid they'll drag me into research."
"That's right. When I saw you being exposed, I thought you were a warrior."
"Well, then why are you now exposed to the public and have entered the military zone?"
Wen Yuan remained calm and said, "I want to investigate something. Joining the military district might help me get the latest intelligence faster."
Sometimes when Changqing comes up, everyone seems to be very receptive to these high-functioning people.
Shi Changqing glanced at Guan Qin and said, "Isn't it said that the employees of Black Hole Company can do whatever they want? Why don't you go and join them?"
For a moment, everyone looked at Guan Qin.
Guan Qin immediately became alert: "Why are you all looking at me?"
"I'm just a small soldier. The ones who really have the final say are the senior leaders."
Shi Changqing tilted his thumb towards him and looked at the other four: "See, this Black Hole Company is really capable of covering the sky with one hand."
“.”
Wen Yuan: "I feel more at ease with regular troops."
When they first won the top three in the StarCraft competition, internal employees of Black Hole Company came to talk to them.
If they wanted to, they would have joined long ago. Why wait until now?
Guan Qin retorted: "We are serious too."
Shang Guiliang waved his hand: "Anyone who can say this has been completely brainwashed and bribed."
“.”
"It seems that it's better to avoid you next time there is any important meeting." Bian Zhen nodded in agreement.
“.”
Shi Changqing also nodded in agreement.
Speaking of this, she came here to do something else.
"Have you met Dongfang Lin?"
It was he who received her and Guan Qin at the beginning. To be honest, she did think of her master at that time.
Dongfang Lin, Lao Lin, this is indeed too much of a coincidence.
Guan Qin had met one of them before and quickly understood what he meant. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You mean... he is Lao Lin?"
"Who are you talking about?" Shang Guiliang was the only one in the audience who had not received any contact or lobbying from the Black Hole insiders, so he was a little confused about this name.
But since the same word was mentioned, he guessed that it might be related to Lao Lin, so he interrupted.
Wen Yuan, Shi Yixin, and Bian Zhen were also confused: "Who is Dongfang Lin?"
Shi Changqing and Guan Qin were surprised and asked, "You don't even know him?"
"Didn't someone from Black Hole talk to you about joining the organization?"
Bian Zhen was silent for a moment: "Yes, there is, but I have never seen or heard of Dongfang Lin."
Shi Changqing had no choice but to turn his attention back to Guan Qin. Since Lao Lin was his master, he was more or less familiar with his master's existence.
Guan Qin naturally knew what she was thinking, so he said, "It was pitch dark at the time, and the other party's aura was so strong, how could I dare to look at him? Plus, Master's temperament is very gentle, the two are so different that we can't even think of the same thing."
Shi Changqing: “…”
She had expected the other party to say this, so she coughed twice and asked again, "In that case, you have been in there for so long and you haven't seen Dongfang Lin's true face?"
Guan Qin leaned back in his chair and fanned himself with the fan on the table. "Forget about his true face. I haven't even seen him since that day."
"I've already said that I'm just an insignificant soldier."
"Oh." Shi Changqing said nonchalantly, "I wonder if Brother Guan Qin might have gotten a photo of Dongfang Lin."
Guan Qin glanced at her and quickly understood: "So this is your original intention for coming here this time, right?"
Shi Changqing gave him a kind smile.
Guan Qin waved his hands: "Impossible."
"You want the face under Dongfang Lin's mask, so why don't you go get it yourself? As long as you join in, with your talent, you will definitely be appreciated by Dongfang Lin."
Shi Yixin sneered, "You still haven't forgotten to recruit people. You really are dedicated to the organization."
Guan Qin said that there was no way to chat that day.
Shi Changqing got the result he expected and stood up: "Sorry to bother you guys to come over today. Since there is nothing else, I will leave first."
Bian Zhen: "It's so rare for me to come out, I won't fight."
She pointed her thumb towards the training room behind her, indicating that she should stay.
Shi Changqing glanced at the other four people and said, "You guys want to fight too."
"Since you're here." Wen Yuan also stood up, wearing a neat and clean suit.
Shi Changqing: "Okay, let's go together."
I haven't played with anyone in a long time, so let me try it out.
So the six of them entered the training room together, and only Shi Changqing came out.
She walked out of the shop and looked at the hustle and bustle of traffic in front of her. Today was another day full of energy.
Inside the training room.
"Damn it! If we really were taught by the same master, then Old Lin is too partial to Shi Changqing!"
Several people sat on the ground with bruised faces and noses. Shang Guiliang grabbed the wall and made an unwilling sound.
"Come on, maybe he is just talented." Guan Qin said.
He also felt a little sour.
But speaking of Dongfang Lin, he could indeed check. If they were really the same person, why did this one and that one have so many disciples?
It was noon when Shi Changqing came back from the martial arts gym. She would report to the 23rd Military Region in the afternoon.
Alas, temporary workers also have to go to work.
Shi Changqing took out Dongfang Lin's name tag with his number on it. She hesitated for a while and tried to call him.
Half a minute later, the call was connected.
"Who is this?" Dongfang Lin's voice came slowly.
"It's me."
“…….”
There was silence for a while. "Who are you?"
Shi Changqing hesitated for half a second: "Shi Changqing."
There was silence for a long time.
She asked again, "Lao Lin, is that you?"
Dongfang Lin quickly replied: "No, I'm Old Dongfang."
“…”
"You're the number one in the galaxy, right?" Dongfang Lin paused, then said with a smile, "I remember exactly who I gave my number to. I just remembered your voice. Have you decided to join our organization?"
"No."
Shi Changqing hung up the phone.
Dongfang Lin was stunned when he saw the call being hung up. He turned to look at the person next to him and said, "Hey, this kid, she hung up before she even finished talking. This is so rude. Didn't anyone teach her this since she was a child?"
…
Shi Changqing packed his luggage in the afternoon and went to the 23rd Military Region with the letter of recommendation.
The headquarters of the 23rd Military Region is located on the Four Seasons Star, which is also the planet where Boris is located.
When she arrived at the gate of the 23rd Military Region, someone was already waiting to receive her.
"You are Shi Changqing."
It was a woman she had never seen before, tall and heroic.
"Yes, I am Shi Changqing."
Even though the other party recognized her, she still took out the letter of recommendation given by Xuanyuan Lan.
The other party took it, took a symbolic look at it, and then took her into a small room in the military area after confirming that it was okay.
