Chapter 347 Wrong Number
At Home Inn, Lin Yun hadn't slept.
When he first arrived in Haizhou, he wanted to get a feel for the military deployment of Haizhou and the military deployment of Pearl Island. There are many formations in the Central Plains. Although Lin Yun plans to break the formation and rob by force, it is always better if he can get a good grasp of the situation than not at all.
Although the main purpose of this trip is to take the Snow Girl out for fun, secondary tasks must also be completed along the way.
Unexpectedly, Hu Yuling had already arranged her own people here.
Lin Yun and Feng Wu agreed to meet at three o'clock in the morning, and now he has been waiting patiently.
He didn't dare to sleep, because every time he dreamed he was drowned. It was too painful.
From then on, he would not sleep any more, and he would not have to worry about nightmares when practicing spiritual cultivation with others.
Calculating the time, it was about time. Lin Yun jumped out of the window and lightly reached the roof.
Dongfang Hongyue, who was observing secretly, suddenly became alert. After returning to the inn, she used her spiritual sense to observe Lin Yun, but Lin Yun was just meditating and practicing.
From this point of view, Dongfang Hongyue was basically satisfied. At least Lin Yun was quite well behaved and did not mess around with the Snow Girl.
It’s not that she didn’t want to go and meet Lin Yun, but she didn’t want Lin Yun to think that she was unsatisfied and deliberately blocking him. Besides, it would be very troublesome if she was discovered by the Snow Girl, so she simply didn’t show up.
This observation actually revealed a big secret.
Not long after Lin Yunyue went up to the roof, Feng Wu arrived. Dongfang Hongyue sensed Feng Wu's presence and realized that Feng Wu was Lin Yun's person. Lin Yun went to the brothel just to make a connection.
only……
When did he recruit Feng Wu as his subordinate?
Dongfang Hongyue felt a little curious and a little apologetic.
Before, she thought Lin Yun was too much for going to a brothel. Now that she knew she had misunderstood, she naturally felt embarrassed.
Fortunately, she did not act impulsively, so let's just pretend that this incident never happened!
A thin layer of mist rose on the roof, blocking Dongfang Hongyue's spiritual thoughts. She did not forcefully investigate. She believed that Lin Yun was not doing anything with Feng Wu in the mist, so she could still give him some trust.
She withdrew her spiritual thoughts and wanted to find out the news about the Snow Girl and the other mysterious woman.
I had never seen what that woman looked like before, but when I asked others, they all said that she was very beautiful.
Dongfang Hongyue regarded her as a potential threat and naturally wanted to find out the situation.
In the thick fog, Lin Yun and Feng Wu looked at each other. Feng Wu bowed slightly to show her respect to Lin Yun.
"You're welcome. You've been wronged while lurking in a brothel. You can hold your head high in front of me."
"Thank you, my Lord."
Feng Wu had heard a lot of sweet words, but Lin Yun's words still made her feel a little warm.
"How long have you been in Haizhou?"
"Two months."
"Tell me briefly about Haizhou's situation."
"Yes, my Lord."
Although it was just a brief talk, Feng Wu never stopped talking. The first thing she talked about was the distribution of power in Haizhou.
In Haizhou, there are three major gangs, the Haisha Gang, the Dalong Gang, and the Jujing Gang.
The members of these three gangs are mainly sailors who go out to sea. These sailors are mainly independent cultivators and monks from unknown sects.
The three major gangs all have the shadows of the seven righteous sects and the three evil sects. Feng Wu has not yet figured out who belongs to whom.
Lin Yun didn't care about these small details. In short, the three major gangs were the ones who openly maintained the rule of Haizhou, and the highest level of cultivation was only to guard the state of mind.
If Lin Yun really wanted to send troops, these would not be his match.
"In other words, Haizhou is just a major transportation route?"
Lin Yun originally thought that Mingzhu Island was a transit station and Haizhou was the largest port. Now Lin Yun realized that he was wrong.
Pearl Island serves as both a transit station and a core port, and Haizhou is just the back garden of Pearl Island.
Precious items will be directly airlifted from Pearl Island to various sects. The only things that will be consumed in Haizhou are those that cultivators disdain, or those with low spiritual energy content, as well as lower-grade refining materials or marine elixirs.
Despite this, Haizhou is still considered prosperous, and many monks without any background will come here to try their luck.
They can only stay in Haizhou. The restrictions on Pearl Island are even stricter, and there are restrictions on the number of people from the three major gangs who can go to the island every month.
This is also how the orthodox sects control independent practitioners.
"Is there any way to get the gang to arrange for me to go to Pearl Island?"
Lin Yun still planned to go and take a look. Feng Wu shook her head and said, "Although the highest level of cultivation here is at the Guarding Heart Realm, the three major gangs all have cultivators at the Knowing Heaven Realm serving them. I have not yet infiltrated any of the three major gangs."
"That's okay. I'll think of a solution when the time comes. By the way, is there anything important that deserves attention recently?"
Lin Yun asked casually. He was relatively isolated from the news in the Central Plains. He had been drifting on the sea for so long and just came ashore today, so he wanted to find out more.
"Nothing big happened in Haizhou. There will be a low tide in a few days. At this time of year, there will be more sailors going to sea. However, the Palace Master of Guanghan Palace was attacked, and it is possible that he drifted to Haizhou. There are more people waiting for salvage at the mouth of Long River..."
"The Palace Master of Guanghan Palace was attacked. When did it happen? Tell me the details."
Lin Yun didn't care about the Palace Master, but he was worried about the Flower Fairy.
"This is what happened seven days ago..."
Feng Wu told Lin Yun all her information.
Lin Yun was relieved when he heard that the flower fairy was fine.
As for Jiang Chenyu...
Lin Yun silently clasped his hands together in his heart: I hope everyone is okay.
"You mean, the murderer is Hu Yuling?"
Lin Yun always felt that something was not right. Why would the little slave girl kill Jiang Chenyu for no reason?
As his master, he did not give Hu Yulin such a task.
Could it be that he is Hu Yuling’s boss?
The demon that is hidden deeper?
This is possible. Now is a time of great change. It would be strange if the demons did not stir up trouble.
The little slave girl didn't even send him a letter regarding such an important matter. It seemed that she had been released for too long and Hu Yuling needed to be taught a lesson.
"Lin Yu of the Shenxiao Sect saw the appearance of the murderer."
Feng Wu used this sentence to explain her intelligence. Lin Yun nodded and said, "I understand. You can go back first and continue to hide. Haizhou is an important place. If you build an intelligence network here, I will give you the reward you deserve in the future."
Feng Wu was delighted, nodded, and left.
With Lin Yun's promise, she became more motivated.
This is Lin Yun’s strategy for controlling his subordinates, using both kindness and severity. If the other party has not made any mistakes, of course he should be rewarded. He will make an appropriate promise and will definitely reward him next time.
Punishment is also indispensable.
Lin Yun sensed Hu Yuling's location. He had implanted his own blood in Hu Yuling's body and also engraved slave patterns on it. As long as Lin Yun wanted to sense it, he could naturally sense Hu Yuling's location.
Of course, this also has distance limitations.
Several hours had passed since he gave the order to Hu Yuling, so she arrived quite quickly.
How could it be said that she came at such a coincidence? Hu Yuling came just when Lin Yun was angry.
Lin Yun released the thick fog, allowing Hu Yuling to find him. Afterwards, the fog isolated the surroundings and became thicker than before.
Now even sound cannot be transmitted, let alone spiritual thoughts.
As soon as Hu Yuling entered the fog, she felt an uncomfortable breath. It was divine power!
Lin Yun is indeed related to God, and some of his power should have been awakened, as evidenced by this thick fog.
"Meet the master."
Hu Yuling revealed her nightmare form. She found that Lin Yun liked to touch her tail, so she obediently catered to Lin Yun's hobby.
She half-knelt on the eaves, very respectful.
Lin Yun, however, had a serious look on his face. He grabbed her tail, used it as a whip, and whipped her.
Lin Yun showed no mercy and whipped him a few more times.
"Wuwu... Master, I was wrong, please forgive me!"
"You are wrong. How did you go wrong?"
Hu Yuling: “…”
I don’t know about this, but I was beaten as soon as I got here.
Hu Yuling's eyes were misty and she said aggrievedly, "I don't know."
Lin Yun then hit her with his tail again.
"You don't know you're wrong, but you keep saying you're wrong. Are you trying to trick me?"
"Wow...I don't dare."
Seeing how well-behaved she was, Lin Yun couldn't bring himself to do it. He felt that it was almost time, so he said, "Tell me, why didn't you inform me of such an important matter as assassinating Jiang Chenyu? You did it without permission. Don't you deserve to be punished?"
"But I didn't kill her..."
Hu Yuling looked aggrieved.
"Someone is framing me. According to my speculation, it is very likely that the Flower Fairy directed and acted out this incident herself. Lin Yu was also her helper. It is obvious that the Flower Fairy is a scheming person...ah!"
She was only halfway through her words when she was hit by Lin Yun again, but this time the hit was not severe. Lin Yun said calmly: "You should know the relationship between the Flower Fairy and me."
"Yes, it's the mistress. The mistress is very smart at first glance."
"Wrong again, your mistress is someone else."
Lin Yun didn't hit him hard this time.
It's not that Lin Yun didn't believe Hu Yuling's words. Hu Yuling didn't dare to lie to him. She suspected that the flower fairy was framing her, and Lin Yun thought that was possible.
Because the flower fairy does have the motivation to do such a thing.
but……
Of course, the main reason is that Elder Hu is good-looking and has a great figure, so it is pleasant to bully Lin Yun.
"Forget about this matter. How dare you tell Feng Wu about my affairs? What if she leaks the secret?"
This was also the main reason why Hu Yuling was beaten.
"But... I haven't told anyone. Feng Wu belongs to the Flower Fairy now..."
Lin Yun: “…”
My goodness, didn’t Hu Yuling get beaten for nothing?
