1013 New Helpers

"Why, why did it disappear?" Even Linlin was stunned.

She blinked, tears fell from her eyelashes and made a wet mark on her face.

Even the moment Tian Qing appeared just now, her emotions were extremely aroused and she didn't even say anything.

And now it’s ups and downs, before she can calm down her emotions, Lian Tianqing disappeared?

She looked around, her eyes swept through the bamboo forest, grabbed Xu Wen with her backhand, and asked anxiously: "Why did he disappear? He hasn't talked to me yet!"

"Don't be anxious." This incident was indeed a bit sudden. Even Tianqing came and left quickly.

Xu Wen held Lian Linlin's hand, stared at the place where Lian Tianqing was standing just now, recalling every movement, every expression, and every specific detail when he appeared.

Gradually, he felt a little at ease, exhaled gently, took Lian Linlin's hand, and sat down with her on the wooden floor in the corridor.

Lian Linlin was very obedient, but as soon as she sat down, she immediately turned to look at him.

"I just observed carefully that the master did not appear here as a physical entity, it seemed like he was really a soul." Xu Wen said.

Even Linlin was not as thin as him. She took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and asked, "How did you see it?"

"The hair, sleeves, robe corners, and other edges are a bit blurry, like translucent, and you can see the scenery behind you." Xu Wen explained.

"Since, since it's just a soul." Even Linlin's mood was still a little unstable, and he said a little intermittently, "Where is his entity?"

"There is no way to judge this." Xu Wen shook his head.

"What else do you see besides this?" Lian Linlin looked at Xu Wen trustfully and asked.

"Two things. First, the master was looking outside just now, not the bamboo forest, but the rain. He was very concerned about the rain." Xu asked.

"Rain?" Lian Linlin looked out and said, "It's really abnormal that it rained for too long, but how did my father... know?"

"Good question, this is what I think of. It didn't rain before he fell asleep, and it only started to rain when it disappeared. If he felt something was wrong, how did he know that it had been raining for so long?" Xu Wen said to himself.

"Is it actually he not disappeared? He was in the same place and kept watching us?" Lian Linlin raised a possibility.

"There is another possibility. Just look at the Seven Tribulation Tower. There may be a total of seven tribulations here, and rainwater is just one of them. Master learned about these seven tribulations elsewhere, and after he came back, he was worried." Xu Wen said this, his heart slightly sank.

Lian Linlin bit his lips and asked, "What about the second thing? What is it?"

"He..." Xu Wen glanced at her, paused before saying, "He doesn't seem to know you...we are now."

"Ah?" Lian Linlin was stunned and said in a conditioned reflex, "That's impossible!"

But she never doubted Xu Wen's judgment. After denying it, she hesitated and asked, "Is it really...really?"

"I can't be completely sure, but it's very likely. His eyes were very strange when he looked at you and me, no different from those I didn't know." Xu Wen said honestly.

"How could this happen..." Lian Linlin was stunned.

Xu Wen recalled the memories and said slowly: "Actually, it is not accurate to say this. He seemed to have something left. Finally, he was confused for a short time. If he could stay longer, he would probably ask who we are."

"In other words, he actually remembers us, but he just doesn't remember?"

Even Lin Lin was incoherent and didn't know what he was saying, but Xu Wen understood and nodded affirmatively, "Yes, that's it."

"In other words, he just doesn't remember us now, and it's possible to recover in the future?" Lian Linlin asked, feeling uneasy if he didn't get an answer.

"According to my guess, this is indeed the case." Xu asked.

All he said was his guess, but even Linlin seemed to have received a positive answer, breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down.

"You're right, he will always remember us."

"Maybe when these five soul-summoning bells ring again, you can remind him of these things yourself when you see him again." Xu Wen turned around and looked at the iron bell hanging on the window and said.

"Yes!" Lian Linlin suddenly realized, turned around and went back to the room, staring at the bell, wishing it would ring immediately.

However, although Lian Tianqing disappeared as soon as it appeared, and something strange seemed to appear, Xu Wendao was relieved.

First of all, he did appear, instead of really disappearing from now on, which gave Xu Wen some confidence.

Furthermore, his appearance is the effect of the five-sounding soul-summoning bell, which means it is indeed useful and there will be some expectations in the future.

He looked back at the process of Lian Tianqing's appearance this time, and various details, and wanted to find something, but after thinking about it for a long time, he still failed.

Since some things cannot be solved now, let them go first and deal with the things at hand first.

Xu Wen will not set off immediately for the time being. He still has many things to hand over to Li Sheng to explain to him what is going on in the Ximo section of the Huai'enqu.

At the same time, the Wanliu meeting ended and the canal construction work was about to begin, including personnel and material arrangements, construction dates, etc. He had to help determine the situation in advance, and then go to other places to inspect after the completion.

With Jing Nanhai’s full assistance, this work is not troublesome.

However, Xu Wen learned that after he turned around, Jing Nanhai was going to leave the Western Desert and set off to return to the capital.

He is the chief manager of the Inner Palace. He was able to stay in the Western Desert for two years because of the Tianqi Palace and Fengchun City.

This is the first large-scale project handled by the Neiwu Pavilion. Through this project, they integrated the power of their hands and tried many new systems and new technologies. To put it bluntly, the Apocalypse Palace is their experimental field. Now that the experiment is over, he should go back and take stock of the harvest and prepare for the next stage of work.

He has known Jing Nanhai for two years, but his relationship has always been faint, and he feels like he is doing business.

But now that he was thinking that he was going back to the capital and would not have the chance to meet again in a short period of time, Xu Wen still felt a little regretful.

Without a powerful arm help, it will always be less convenient...

He sighed and thought to himself.

Then one day, Jing Nanhai led someone to him.

Xu Wen was a little surprised when he looked at the man's indifferent smile.

His hair was neatly tidy, his beard was shaved, and he looked a little elegant in ordinary clothes. But in his smile, when he occasionally glanced at him, anger flashed by, which was hard to hide.

It's Zuo Teng!

Before, he was arrested because Ming Furu threatened Lian Linlin and went to kill him.

Xu Wen asked for love for him once, but there was no news since then. Later, he didn't know what happened to him.

I never expected that he would appear in front of him so suddenly now.

"Master Yue asked me to hand him over to you." Jing Nanhai said, "Look back and monitor you everywhere, and there must be trustworthy people around you. Although this person is a perverse, it is not bad to be a coachman and is quite useful. I won't kill him and give you this life."

He said these words in front of Zuo Teng. Zuo Teng just laughed when he heard this, as if he was not concerned at all. Xu Wen looked at Zuo Teng. There was a new injury on his face and a whip on his neck where his clothes were buried, which was also a new injury.

Obviously, these were all tortured in prison.

But other than that, he looked fine and was in good spirits.

Xu Wen nodded, said nothing, and said, "Okay, just leave it to me."

Jing Nanhai left, Xu Wen bowed to Zuo Teng and said, "Mr. Zuo."

Zuo Teng didn't seem to expect that he would be like this, raised his eyebrows and said, "I am a murderer and I have kidnapped you. Are you afraid?"

"You are for Lin Lin, I have to thank you. At that time, I also had the intention to kill Ming Furu, but I didn't make up my mind for selfish interests. I was ashamed." Xu asked.

Zuo Teng didn't expect this sentence. He raised his eyebrows higher, stared at Xu Wen for a while, and suddenly started to laugh.

"Okay, I'll protect your life!" he said.

He said it casually, but Xu Wen heard the weight of this sentence.

He would kill people for Lian Linlin, and now, he would kill people for Xu Wen.

This era is different from the one he used to live in. Human life is despicable and not valuable. When necessary, Xu Wen would not mind blood staining on his hands, but some principles will not change no matter which era he is in.

But there is no need to say these words to Zuo Tengming now - how can one easily reverse a person's concept by just a few words?

So Xu Wen didn't say much, and while walking back with Zuo Teng, he asked about what was happening in prison.

Zuo Teng naturally lags behind him half a step and answers Xu's questions.

He was indeed tortured in prison, and it was obvious that he did not ask questions, but just to vent his anger.

Time is uncertain, and occasionally I will ask him to whip him when I think about it. It is not too heavy and will not take his life; but it is not light, and I still suffer a lot of flesh and blood.

Zuo Teng was only used to the flesh and blood. When he thought he was eating a whip without a meal and was about to be beheaded in autumn, he was taken out and sent to Xu Wen.

"It seems that the adult is indeed angry, but he is not so angry that he wants to cut off my head." Zuo Teng said with a smile.

"The information Mingfuru has in his hands is indeed very important. He will be gone when he dies. He has to start from scratch, which is a bit troublesome." Xu Wen also admitted this point, "But he will die when he dies. Not to mention Lin Lin, the other things he did are enough for him to die ten thousand times. It's not a pity."

"You want the information in his hands, too?" Zuo Teng asked suddenly.

"I want it, I want it very much." Xu asked.

"I heard that he is the Pope of the Xueman Sect?" Zuo Teng thought about it.

"yes."

"Why don't I... go to the Xueman Sect to inquire?"

"I don't think it's useless. Ming Furu is dead, and Yue Yunluo must have turned the Xueman Sect into the sky. If she didn't find anything, I think..."

"That may not be."

Zuo Teng's words slightly raised his voice and said it very confidently.

Xu Wen paused and turned to look at him.

"The Xueman Sect is so deep in the Western Desert that I am afraid that I am not sure. No matter how powerful Lord Yue is, it is still a bit difficult to pull it out. After all, as long as you leave some roots in the wild grass, it will rekindle." Zuo Teng said slowly.

"You mean, can you find something that Yue Yunluo can't find?" Xu Wen asked.

"I can't guarantee it, but the way I'm going is definitely different from hers." Zuo Teng said.

"Then... please." Xu Wen thought about it and saluted Zuo Teng.
