Chapter 236

㈣But the problem is.

㈡How to play this chess?

㈨Hasn't he seen it before?

０"Hey, Mr. Lu Lin, I've never played this chess before, and I don't know what the rules are?" he asked.

㈤Lu Lin was silent for a moment, and then said, "It's okay, you'll know in the next game, please."

Lu Men was stunned, looked at the chessboard, then looked at Lu Lin, gritted his teeth, picked up a white chess piece, and placed it about four or five squares away from Lu Lin.

Seeing this, Lu Lin nodded, and then placed a chess piece next to the opponent.

Seeing this, Luo Men, although still confused, also imitated Lu Lin and placed a chess piece next to his first chess piece.

The two sides played back and forth without saying a word for a full half an hour. When the chessboard was almost halfway, Lin nodded and said, "Not bad, you are very talented. The last eagle move has the posture of an emperor. You won this game."

Lu Men was dumbfounded.

How did he win?

What are the rules of this thing?

Why didn't he understand it?

Lu Lin looked at him expressionlessly.

Don't understand?

It's right that he doesn't understand.

Because he doesn't understand it either.

He brought this thing to fool people, just to prevent the situation of being blocked in a small room.

This looks like playing Go, but in fact Lu Lin himself doesn't know how to play Go at all, he only knows Gobang.

But Gobang is too simple, there is no style at all.

So he finally decided to pretend that he was playing Go, but in fact he just put the chess pieces on the board randomly, there are no rules at all, it would be a miracle if Luo Men could understand it.

After asking the servants beside him to sort and collect the chess pieces, Lu Lin picked up another black chess piece and placed it in the center of the chessboard again, saying, "Lord Luo Men, please."

Chapter 387 It seems that it is time for us to make our debut

Lu Lin and Luo Men played three games of chess in total.

After playing three games, Luo Men still didn't understand what they were playing.

Seeing that Lu Lin was about to play the fourth game, Luo Men quickly found a reason to leave.

Although the dinner was only for Lu Lin, it was not for Lu Lin alone. He couldn't spend the whole night here.

And most importantly, he really couldn't understand that strange chess. Although he won the first game, he had no idea how he won.

Lu Lin was relieved when Luo Men left.

Finally, he fooled around.

It was really tiring just to create a good image for the outside world.

Fortunately, he did scare the other party. In the next few days, he only needs to come every two or three days, and while showing his presence, he should be able to make the other party more and more anxious.

And this place is a place where information from the surrounding areas is collected. When these people get used to his presence and mix in the crowd, he will wait for a while. , and should be able to collect some nearby intelligence.

After Luo Men left, Lu Lin waited for a while, then he also took Li Mi out of the soundproof room and stayed at the main venue of the banquet until the end.

During this period, although the people around them were no longer as afraid of them as at the beginning, no one dared to talk to them. Only the city lord came to Lu Lin from time to time to say hello and try to start a topic.

But Lu Lin always remained silent, or briefly raised some irrelevant questions, but refused to answer directly. 9

Just like this, the banquet was over for a night. Ling

Although Lu Lin didn't say a few hundred words in total, he still felt exhausted, hungry and thirsty, so he went back and had a big midnight snack. Four

On the contrary, Li Mi kept eating and drinking, and was quite leisurely. ⑧

Although At the end of the banquet, the city lord invited them to come back the next day, but Lu Lin was really tired and decided to leave the city lord alone for two days. So for the next two days, he and Li Mi changed into other clothes and continued to wander around the city. ④

Try popular restaurants, buy some interesting gadgets, watch performances in the theater, listen to the stories of bards, it's so leisurely. 2

The city lord Luo Men actually knows Lu Lin's whereabouts. After all, this is his own territory. He also considered whether to meet Lu Lin during the day. 9㈨

But after thinking about it, he gave up. Lin Ling

Lu Lin and him don't have any personal relationship at present. Lu Lin's attitude is too vague at present. It is not convenient for him to go to Lu Lin in a private capacity. 四物

As for the issue of Lu Lin's two faces. ⑻

Then Actually, it is not a problem. 4

After all, even if it is him, his state and aura when dealing with public affairs and private affairs are completely different. 2

So he just sent someone to watch secretly to prevent Lu Lin from getting into any trouble. 久

As for whether the cooperation can be discussed, it depends on whether Lu Lin will come to his dinner again. ０

As long as he comes, there will be a chance. ⑤

And Lu Lin also calculated that it should be enough to lure him for two days. Although he didn't want to attend the boring dinner, he still took Li Mi and went again on the third night in his previous outfit.

This time, he naturally received an invitation from the city lord to go to the soundproof room as soon as he went there, but Lu Lin refused.

Although he still had chess on him, it was actually very boring to pretend to play chess and move around randomly. It would be better to stay in the hall.

Since today's situation was not as special as before, Lu Lin's rejection was not a big deal. Luo Men had no choice but to tell people to take care of Lu Lin and then left.

Lu Lin, on the other hand, stayed quietly in the corner, waiting for the banquet to officially begin.

Today he was well prepared. In order to inquire about the situation, he bought a bottle of potion that could enhance hearing from the school, just to see if he could glean some useful information at the banquet later.

What Lu Lin didn't expect was that he didn't even need to wait until the banquet started before he heard news that interested him from the discussion a little further away.

They were several Round-ear businessmen. After they came and saw Lu Lin, one of them seemed to have been here two days ago, so he recognized Lu Lin and immediately pulled him aside to the other two.

Listening to them talking about how scary they were, Lu Lin also felt a little helpless.

He wondered what he was doing. Is Rumi's pressure so scary?

After hearing this, Lu Lin had no intention of continuing to listen carefully, but the next words of the three people instantly brought his attention back.

"Hey, that broken moon emblem on his back, isn't that the one that has been very popular recently?"

"Huh? It's so popular? Isn't it just him? Everyone is asking what this thing is, but no one can tell. Could it be that you have seen it elsewhere?"

"It is indeed new news that has come out in the past two days, but haven't you received it? It is said that the gangs searching for ∥≠qUｎ: nine◇〕48∏2÷...four〔3305 from several nearby hills have all appeared. Five≌≌⑦∽⑹{々⑥㈢椤４⒉ close the lock□: thing.”

"I heard about the gang trouble. It was said that several gangs were wiped out. It is estimated that the nearby trade routes will be much peaceful in the future, but it made me happy for a while."

"Yes, I heard about this yesterday and celebrated it with some of my friends. But, does this have anything to do with the Broken Moon emblem?"

"Of course it does matter. Haven't you heard that in these gang stations that were wiped out, there was a flag with the same emblem left inside?"

"I heard that, doesn't it mean that no one recognizes that emblem...Eh? Wait, no, you mean..."

"Yes, I received the specific pattern of that emblem before, and it is exactly the same as the one on his back."

"In other words, those who suppressed nearby gangs are all his people?"

…

Listening to their mutterings, Lu Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at this situation, it was obvious that Oro did not choose to escape, but was cleaning up the nearby gangs as they planned.

As for spreading the Broken Moon emblem, it is also planned, and the effect seems to be pretty good so far.

The Dagashi Cult has a very strong ability to spread information. It can make their name known during their business banquets, which should be very helpful for the "investment attraction" work after the city-state is established in the future.

At present, it seems that Oro's additional goals have been completed quite well, but I don't know if the main goal has any clues.

In addition, if you really want to discuss business with the Dagashi Cult in the future, you may have to go back to your hometown to take a look at the current situation of Wuxiang Headquarters, what is needed, and what resources are available to do business.

While helping Li Mi choose the food, Lu Lin was thinking about this. Naturally, his ears were not idle, and he was always paying attention to the conversations of the people around him.

Probably because of his appearance, there were a lot of people talking about the Broken Moon emblem behind him today. Under such circumstances, the news that Oro and others left the Broken Moon emblem after they suppressed the bandits naturally began to spread quickly among the crowd. . 2

As more and more people learned about this incident, Lu Lin's mysterious aura finally faded away. 9

In addition, the elimination of bandit gangs was a good thing that was extremely beneficial to the merchants. For a while, many people even had a good impression of Lu Lin. Four

Moreover, if you think about it carefully, Lu Lin didn't do much. It was just that the female swordsman next to him was too scary at the beginning. 0

Now looking at the way the female swordsman is being eaten and drank, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything to be afraid of? Four

Especially those who have never seen Lu Lin before, they don't understand why others are so afraid of Lu Lin. Eh

So much so that later on, some people started to take the initiative to talk to Lu Lin. ⒌

Although Lu Lin kept his answers as brief as possible for the sake of his appearance, he would not refuse them. road

After all, in Lu Lin's plan, the foreign policy of the forces in the future will still follow the friendly line. The concave shape will be fine. If it leaves people with the impression of rejecting people thousands of miles away, then it will be inconsistent with his ideas. It doesn’t match anymore. Hiss

And coincidentally, Lu Lin also took the opportunity to talk to them and let out a piece of information. Zhong

These people who come to chat with him will basically be confused about the origin of their power. q

When this happens, Lu Lin will directly mention to him the recent alliance between the Boundless Church and U

The Wuxiang Gang was first established, and the Broken Moon Emblem first appeared. The news here is likely to become the main source of information about the Wuxiang Gang in the next period of time. If it cannot be here, the "Broken Moon Emblem" and "Boundless Church Allies" Once they are connected, it will take a lot more effort to find a solution later. n

In this case, Lu Lin might as well give him a push directly, which would also make the public opinion image of the Wuxiang Gang more three-dimensional. :

At the same time, Lu Lin also revealed the power name "Wuxiang".

If we say that in the past, the Wuxiang Gang was just an organization that was initially established and hidden behind the scenes.

So after today, it has officially come to the stage and become one of the actors in the drama of the Land of Chaos.

Chapter 388 Damn, I bought a facehugger

The next day, the information about Wuxiang spread among the various chambers of commerce in the city in a short time.

It was not because of Wuxiang himself, but because before Lu Lin appeared, no one knew how many people were eyeing the Wuyi Church, an ally that suddenly emerged.

The Wuyi Church is well known for its closedness. Although after the previous war, it seems that its internal and external strategies have changed, it is still extremely cautious and prefers to do business with some old-fashioned sects that act more directly and uprightly.

The current attitude of the Infinite Church is still against the Chamber of Commerce or the Great Gash Church, which are "notorious profiteers who are filthy and have no reputation for being a group of profiteers".

These forces cannot directly connect with the Infinite Church, but they are afraid that other forces will seize the opportunity of the Blue Leaf Forest-related business, so they will naturally focus on the only force that also has an independent city-state in the Blue Leaf Forest.

In the past, they have been trying to find relevant information, but because they could not find any clues, they had to put it aside.

Now that Wuxiang has appeared, naturally It will attract their attention.

For a while, everyone in the city began to inquire about Lu Lin's whereabouts. After learning where Lu Lin lived, some people wanted to go directly to his house.

Unfortunately, their actions were all stopped by the city lord.

This business was first spotted by Luo Men, and it was still on his territory. How could these guys get there first?

Want to find Ci□Hedgehog ４% off#々Agent in advance: Ah Jiu※°④∈0『】④№＼３〖℃wu６咝ˇLu Lin to discuss business?

No way!

Soon, the city guards moved, and in a short time In the short time, they set up several layers of encirclement around Lulin Earth Dragon, under the pretext of "preventing anyone from provoking the city lord's guests".

These merchants are not stupid, who doesn't know what Luo Men is thinking.

It's just that Lulin doesn't go out, so they really have no way to contact Lulin, and can only wait for the opportunity.

When Lulin enters the city, by then, there will be many people and eyes, and it will not be so easy for Luo Men to stop them from contacting Lulin.

Unfortunately, their calculations may be doomed to fail.

Because today, Lulin didn't plan to go out at all.

It's not because he knows that there are a lot of people outside who are secretly competing for him, but purely because he hasn't studied the magic puppet carefully since he bought it.

He had been out with Li Mi for three days before, and he had almost visited all the places to play in the city, so Lu Lin thought about it and decided not to go out today. He would study this magic puppet first. If there is still time after finishing, he would activate the portal to go back to Wuxiang headquarters to see the specific situation there.

"So, what do you think of this puppet?" Lu Lin asked Xiu Linsi who came to help.

"Most of the parts need maintenance, some parts need repair and replacement, and there is nothing else," Xiu Linsi said, "It looks like a very ordinary magic puppet. Why, do you want me to help you fix it?"

"Are you willing to help fix it? "Lu Lin asked.

"It's not impossible, but is it necessary to waste this effort?" Xiu Linsi's expression was subtle. "Wouldn't it be better to buy a new magic puppet of this level? This old one might have some minor problems when used. Why do you still want to save this money?"
