If this continued, these people's futures would be limitless. Who knew how long it would be before they became the pillars of Blue Cloud Pavilion. Perhaps Blue Cloud Pavilion would rise again in their hands, following Zhang Liju's era to rule the north again. At that time, people would give this post-Zhangs era a new name, Lin Yi's Era.
The banquet started, and everyone looked at Lin Yi quietly, waiting for him to start. Lin Yi smiled as he looked at everyone's faces. "It's been two years, and I'm very happy to see that everyone is doing well. There's nothing more important than this, and we should be content with what we have. Come, let's toast to our reunion after such a long time!"
"Cheers!" Everyone smiled and raised their glasses, and even Little Curly Bear finished his glass. Of course, he wasn't drinking spirit wine, but the spirit fruit juice that everyone had prepared for him and Shangguan Laner. Curly Bear's drunkenness wasn't something to be messed with, and if this little guy got drunk, it'd be a huge joke …
"Little brother, hurry up and tell us about your experiences in the south, I can't wait!" Shangguan Laner said impatiently.
"Yeah, yeah, boss, hurry up and tell us, we're all waiting to hear about your legendary experiences!" Qiao Hongcai and the others added. Before this, it was basically Lin Yi asking them about their situations, but now it was the other way around.
"That's right, I'm also very curious about how you escaped from Xishan Old Zong. If you came back a few days later, I would've personally gone to Southern Continent. After all this time, Honest Chai kept saying that he couldn't find any news about you, and I thought he was a fence-sitter, disloyal when he saw the situation wasn't right. This time, I wanted to go ask him about it, but luckily you came back today, otherwise I would've blamed a good person wrongly. "Hong Zhong said with a smile.
Lin Yi couldn't help but feel touched. The Southern Continent was publicly recognized as a place of trouble. Unless there were special circumstances, most people would not be willing to go there. Especially for a prominent figure like Hong Zhong, going to the South Continent in person was risking his life.
Because this would inevitably give the enemies and competitors an opportunity to take advantage of. They didn't dare to play dirty tricks in the north island and the middle island, but in Nanzhou State, they could do it unscrupulously and openly. Anyway, they could easily evade the responsibility with a word. Even if they took the opportunity to kill Hong Zhong, they would not have any worries. After all, murder and arson were too common in Nanzhou State, and there was no way to investigate it.
"Hehe. So where do you want me to start? You should all know what happened before we met West Mountain Old Sect Master, right? " Lin Yi couldn't help but smile. He knew that the north side of the island had sent people to investigate his whereabouts, and it wasn't just the eyes and ears of the Clear Cloud Pavilion, but also the Soaring Sky Pavilion. Otherwise, there was no way Shangguan Tianhua would know his whereabouts so clearly.
"Start from the beginning!" Shangguan Laner hurriedly said, "I just know some general news about you, junior brother, but I don't know the details. Also, why didn't Sister Xiaotao come back with you?"
"Huh? You still don't know about Xiaotao? "Lin Yi could not help but be slightly stunned. Huang Xiaotao's matter was quite sensational in the South Continent. Although it was said that they were far apart from each other, there should be some news about it, right?
"I don't know." Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. In fact, they felt strange from the beginning when they saw Lin Yi. It was just that they were too excited just now and forgot to ask. After all, they had no personal relationship with Huang Xiaotao. They had only met her a few times. Only Shanghai Laner was close to Huang Xiaotao. Therefore, everyone usually only paid attention to the news of Lin Yi, but never deliberately inquired about Huang Xiaotao's situation.
"Well, then I will start from the beginning." Lin Yi paused for a while, then began to say, "The first day Xiaotao and I arrived in the South Continent, we met with a small problem. We had a conflict with a local bully in the Weiqian Ocean. Fortunately, the young master of the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency, Qi Wenhan, helped us out. After that, the two of us took the opportunity to join the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency and became escorts. And our first escort mission came from the local Weiqian branch of the Hong Merchant Association. "
"Wei Zhaotong's matter. This old man did not know his character well and almost harmed you. I am truly sorry. "Hong Zhong said apologetically.
"Elder Hong, you are exaggerating. The reason why you introduced Wei Zhaotong to me was for my own good. His change of heart is his problem, it has nothing to do with you. I can still distinguish between good and bad, so why do you have to blame yourself? Furthermore, he didn't really cause me any trouble. In the end, he promoted Honest Chai. To you and me, this is a rare good thing. "Lin Yi smiled and waved his hand disapprovingly.
"That may be the case, but a mistake is a mistake. I must always remember this matter and remind myself to keep my eyes open in the future. I must not repeat the same mistake and be deceived by such a vile person." Hong Zhong sighed. Wei Zhaotong was his old friend of many years, but such a thing happened. No matter who it was, they would not be in a good mood.
"What are you two talking about? Who is Wei Zhaotong? How did he almost harm you? "Shanghai Laner and the rest were confused.
"Haha, Wei Zhaotong is not a stranger, he is the shopkeeper of the local Weiqian branch. I originally thought he was a good person, but who would have thought that he was so heartless. On one hand, he had the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency escort the goods, and on the other hand, he contacted pirates to intercept his goods. After taking back his goods, he asked the Heaven's Equal Escort Agency to compensate him at the original price. As a shopkeeper of the Hong Merchant Association, he actually did business without any capital. Just thinking about it makes me speechless." Lin Yi laughed bitterly.
"He stole his own goods and wanted the escort agency to compensate him at the original price? To think that there would be such a black-hearted bastard. He deserves to die! "Everyone was filled with righteous indignation.
"What happened after that? Little Junior Brother, did you beat these bastards into a sorry state? " Shanghai Laner's eyes lit up with excitement. In her eyes, Lin Yi had always been an omnipotent existence. Of course, he had to show his skills at this time.
"No, they sent four pirates, and each of them was much stronger than the four of us escorts. In addition, our chief escort gave up resisting first, so we could only choose to endure it." Lin Yi shook his head and then said, "After that, those pirates left us in Zhenduan City. Xiaotao and I couldn't go back to the Weiqian Waters for a while, so we could only stay in Zhenduan City. We also went to the Lufeng Forest in the south island to explore, and we had a lot of unexpected gains." (July 13, iQIYI's "Campus Belle's Bodyguard" will be released.
