Chapter 3688 What Does It Have to Do with You, Sir?
Lin Yun followed Lei Zong from the tightly restricted desolate place to the luxurious hall.
Someone is already here.
Jin Fan, the chief manager of the city lord's palace who was a three-star martial saint.
The other is an elegant Confucian scholar with shining eyes and two sacred rings faintly behind his head. He is the spiritual saint of Erhua.
However, although he is only a Second Flower Spirit Sage, he is much rarer than a Three Star Martial Saint.
Therefore, Jin Fan was very respectful to him.
Lei Zong entered the hall, bowed his hands to the Confucian scholar, and said with a smile: "Mr. Liang came to our house, and Lei Zong was really guilty for not being able to welcome him from a distance."
"The city lord is polite...Liang Hong came to ask for help from the city lord, so it is appropriate to wait here."
Liang Hong hurriedly returned the gift, but it was very perfunctory. Although his words were polite, there was some resentment in his voice.
Obviously, he was unhappy because he had been left out here for so long.
He did ask Lei Zong for help many years ago, hoping that Lei Zong could help him in exploring the Divine Bell.
It's just that Lei Zong didn't give him a definite answer at that time, and in short, he didn't take any action.
A few days ago, Lei Zong sent someone to invite him over.
Since it's an invitation, it's okay if you don't go there in person.
He was still left out here for more than an hour.
Jin Fan was already chatting awkwardly with him as he had nothing to say.
Therefore, he hoped to attract Lei Zong's attention with his resentful tone.
Unexpectedly, Lei Zong only responded to his politeness, and did not accept his words. Instead, he was polite to Lin Yun.
"Senior Brother Lin! Please sit over here!"
He directly moved Lin Yun to the seat where he should have been sitting, right opposite where Liang Hong originally sat.
Liang Hong was a little stunned, and shot a sharp gaze at Lin Yun, hoping that Lin Yun would retreat in spite of the difficulties.
But Lin Yun simply ignored his threat.
Although Liang Hong's mental power was strong, it was impossible to hurt Lin Yun without using his mental skills.
Lin Yun didn't even give in and sat in the first place.
As a result, it was Liang Hong's turn to be embarrassed.
Did he give in or not?
So, he could neither sit nor stand.
Lei Zong didn't care about this and sat directly next to Lin Yun, reaching out to signal to Liang Hong.
"Mr. Liang, please sit down. I'll sit here and get closer to Senior Brother Lin..."
Obviously, the meaning of these words was that Lin Yun was regarded as a confidant.
Liang Hong, on the other hand, became distant.
Liang Hong's face turned dark.
He wanted to walk away.
But... thinking of the hope of exploring Shenzhong Mountain, he had to suppress his temper and sit down firmly.
After sitting down, Lei Zong first introduced Lin Yun and Liang Hong to each other.
Liang Hong was not from Wushuang City, but came from Yunlong City.
He is the elder of Zhulu Academy in Yunlong City.
He read through a large number of classics in Yunlong City and finally discovered a key item to find the Divine Bell, so he rushed to Wushuang City in the hope of cooperating with Lei Zong.
It was just that Lei Zong didn't have the confidence to do this at that time, so he didn't agree immediately, so Liang Hong stayed in Wushuang City and waited. Today, things finally turned around.
After introducing the two of them to each other, Lei Zong got straight to the topic, looked at Liang Hong and asked: "Mr. Liang... did you bring over what you were talking about back then?"
Liang Hong's somewhat dark face turned darker. He leaned back and his nostrils turned upward, and then he slowly said: "Has the city lord made up his mind to cooperate with me?"
"Haha~~ Mr. Liang doesn't believe me?" Lei Zong laughed and said: "Mr. Liang, don't worry... I have handed over the item passed down by my ancestors to Senior Brother Lin."
"That is to say, Senior Brother Lin will fully represent me in this exploration of Shenzhong Mountain."
"So, if anything happens, please Mr. Liang and Senior Brother Lin to communicate more."
Liang Hong's face turned darker. He looked at Lin Yun gloomily and sneered.
"Senior Brother Lin... I don't know how virtuous you are... to be so respected by the city lord?"
Seeing how aggressive he was, Lin Yun also smiled coldly.
"Whether the city lord respects me or not, that is the city lord's business. What does it have to do with you, sir?"
Lin Yun's words immediately left Liang Hong speechless.
He naturally understood the meaning of Lin Yun's words.
Lei Zong chose to respect Lin Yun instead of respecting him, which shows that Lin Yun's status in Lei Zong's heart is more important. ..
Therefore, such an answer is more convincing than Lin Yun's attempt to show off his own virtues.
No matter how good you think you are, if others don't recognize you, what's the use?
Therefore, some things cannot be said by oneself. They need to be said by others to be more valuable.
Sure enough, Lei Zong saw that the atmosphere was a bit cold and smiled: "Mr. Liang... you may not know..."
"There was a big commotion in Wushuang City a few days ago, and it was because of Senior Brother Lin..."
"Ah..." The speechless Liang Hong was suddenly shocked.
He has been living in seclusion in Shenzhong Mountain for these years, waiting for the opportunity to cooperate with Lei Zong.
Therefore, he did not understand the real reason why Thunder Drum broke out.
"I...I thought it was because of the city lord..."
"Ha! I have that ability. Only these days, those dull roars are caused by me." Lei Zong said with a proud smile.
"And the reason why I can make these dull sounds is because Senior Brother Lin told me some secrets of thunder drums."
"The secret of the thunder drum?" Liang Hong was surprised again and said, "Has the secret of the thunder drum been discovered?"
"Of course... Otherwise, how could I make up my mind to cooperate with you, sir?" Lei Zong said proudly.
Liang Hong suddenly jumped up, walked to Lin Yun, and bowed respectfully, saying: "Brother Lin... Please teach me the secret of the thunder drum!"
He did not ask Lin Yun if he agreed. He called it teaching, but in fact he was asking for it directly.
His rude and shameless appearance made Jin Fan beside him secretly shake his head, his eyes full of contempt.
Lin Yun smiled faintly and said: "Originally, the secret of the thunder drum..."
Lin Yun stopped talking halfway.
Liang Hong showed surprise in his eyes, and bowed again: "Brother Lin is willing to teach... Liang Hong should regard him as a teacher..."
Lin Yun shook his head and said: "I don't like to be a teacher to others, especially to an old senior, I feel uncomfortable all over."
"As for me... what I mean is..."
"The secret of the thunder drum belongs to Wushuang City..."
"Whether to make it public... it all depends on the city lord."
Lin Yun lightly kicked the ball to Lei Zong.
Lei Zong certainly didn't want Lin Yun to tell others about the secret of the Thunder Drum.
If everyone knew about it, what advantage would he have?
So, he smiled and said, "Mr. Liang... It's not that I'm stingy, but the timing is not right yet. When we come back from the exploration of Shenzhong Mountain, Senior Brother Lin can do whatever he wants."
Liang Hong's face suddenly changed, he stood up straight, and said angrily, "In that case, why should we talk too much, let's go now."
"Okay!" Lei Zong didn't want to argue any more, and said directly, "Jin Fan, you accompany Senior Brother Lin and Mr. Liang, and you don't need to bring others..."
