After the two ended the call, Lin Xiu walked out of the pavilion for the first time. It seemed that he still had to exercise his muscles.
After coming out of the pavilion, Lin Xiu realized that there was actually a guard waiting there silently. Upon seeing Lin Xiu's figure, the guard immediately rushed over and said, "Sir, you're finally out."
Lin Xiu was slightly taken aback.\ 'You can tell from the other party\'s behavior that this guard must have been guarding the place day and night, taking care of my food, clothing, housing, and transportation since the day I moved in.\'
Although the guard was so responsible because of Lin Ping's instructions, Lin Xiu still felt a little apologetic, so he took out a large number of dao stones from his spatial ring and handed them to the guard. He said apologetically, "These days, I have troubled you. These dao stones are my thanks, I hope you won't refuse."
Unexpectedly, after receiving the dao stones, a smile appeared on the guard's face and he smiled at Lin Xiu.
"It really is as the City Lord said. He said that when you come out of seclusion, if you see me here, you will definitely give me some benefits."
There was a hint of admiration in the guard's tone, it seemed that he admired Lin Ping very much, and this made Lin Xiu secretly nod his head.
A person's nature could be mostly seen from the people around him. Since these guards all sensed that Lin Ping was extremely amiable and approachable, then it was most likely that he wasn't being insincere.
"The City Lord has instructed that if you come out of seclusion, I will bring you around the residence first and familiarize you with the general environment." The guard led the way in front with a smile and at the same time, he explained some of the structure of the City Lord residence to Lin Xiu.
Although the city lord's mansion didn't have any luxurious layout, it was indeed very helpful for cultivation. Lin Ping had used more than half of his resources to build the city lord's mansion. He had strived to use all his resources where they were most useful.
Over the years, the city lord's mansion had roped in many talented individuals. They either possessed astonishing strength or had advantages in other areas that others could not hope to match. With their help, Shou Zhou City's reputation would not fall.
"From what you said, there should be many powerful friends in the City Lord Mansion. Why didn\'t we see anyone along the way?" Lin Xiu was a little puzzled and immediately voiced out the doubts in his heart.
The guard smiled mysteriously, then pointed to a brightly lit pavilion not far away from them, then said to Lin Xiu with some pride, "In fact, every strong person who has been recognized by the City Lord, no matter how strong they are, has a common characteristic - they are extremely focused on cultivation. These days, they are also like the City Lord, cultivating in their own pavilions."
Lin Xiu couldn't help but be surprised. If these strong people who were focused on cultivation could gather under Lin Ping's command, even if they did not show any powerful strength now, one day, they would definitely be able to make the entire region under Yao Kun's command look up.
The structure of the City Lord residence was ordinary and there was not much to admire. Except for the pavilions of some strong people, the majority of the places were unobstructed.
In less than an hour, the two had already walked through the entire City Lord residence. Lin Xiu was also a little dispirited.
"I am basically familiar with the situation here, you should go do your own things. I just finished my closed door cultivation and now I can't wait to go out and have a big meal." Lin Xiu also smiled and touched his head in embarrassment.
He was not lying. Although he received a message from Zhuhai to hurry up, the real reason was that Lin Xiu really did miss the delicious food made by the old couple.
The guard knew that these strong people had their own unique hobbies, so he did not ask much and silently retreated. After Lin Xiu left the City Lord residence, he went straight to the restaurant opened by the old couple according to his memory.
At this moment, the restaurant was already overcrowded. However, when the old man in charge of the chef saw Lin Xiu, his eyes suddenly lit up. He could not care less about the unfinished food in his hands and directly went to the door of the restaurant and pulled Lin Xiu in.
"Little brother, it has been a few days since you left that day. I thought you had already left Shou State City. Since you came to our house, don't be shy about what you want to eat. I will go and make it for you now." The old man was extremely enthusiastic and showed his kindness to Lin Xiu.
And Lin Xiu did not stand on ceremony and directly ordered a large table of food in one go. Then, he deliberately patted his stomach and said with some melancholy, "Stomach, ah stomach, today you can finally get your wish and taste the most delicious food in the world."
When the old man saw Lin Xiu's performance, he also rubbed his hands happily, then instructed his wife, who immediately brought over a pot of superior Longjing tea.
But this time, the old woman did not return to the kitchen to help the old man, but sat opposite Lin Xiu.
"Child, I can see that you are very lonely." The old woman's words were extremely gentle, but it seemed to have a magical power that could heal the trauma of a person's heart.
When Lin Xiu heard this, his eyes suddenly turned sour. Of course he was lonely. In this ancient world, he was the only one silently walking alone, and his family and friends were all in the distant Immortal Martial Continent.
The old woman saw Lin Xiu's expression and then fought for a cup of superior tea for Lin Xiu. She even patted the back of Lin Xiu's hand and said kindly, "It's okay, if you can stay in Shou State City for a long time in the future, then the old man and I will be your family. When you have nothing to do, you can come and accompany us."
Lin Xiu nodded and tried his best to suppress the tears in his eyes. As an expert in the Dao Enlightenment Realm, he shouldn\'t be unable to control his emotions, but facing the kind old couple, Lin Xiu really didn\'t want to be hypocritical anymore.
And at this time, the old man who was busy in the kitchen called out to his wife. The latter also gave Lin Xiu an apologetic look and then went to help.
The business of the small shop was very good, and the shop that was less than 10 square meters was filled with people.
Lin Xiu downed the tea in the cup and looked at the old couple with a smile on his face. He then took out an apron from his spatial ring and put it on. He began to act as a waiter in the shop.
