King

Lin Yan nodded.

"I promise you, but not now, Xiaolan will follow you now."

After Chen Xiaokai heard this, he immediately became excited. He understood that Lin Yan had agreed to his request. He knew Lin Yan's character, and knew that once Lin Yan agreed, the strange fire civet Xiaolan would definitely be taken care of by Lin Yan in the future.

Therefore, he can rest assured that even if he dies now, he will not be afraid anymore.

"Lin Yan, it's actually one thing to take care of Xiaolan, but as the top spiritual pet, Xiaolan has great potential for growth. I mean, Xiaolan will follow you in the future and recognize you as her master."

Chen Xiaokai was afraid that Lin Yan would not understand the specific meaning of his request, so he said this.

The strange fire civet screamed "Zhizhi". Sui was not disgusted with Lin Yan, but he was also very dissatisfied when he heard that his master wanted to give him to others.

Chen Xiaokai pampered the small head of the strange fire civet, and said softly: "Good boy, I will leave you sooner or later, it is very important to find a good safe place and a good owner for you as soon as possible, Xiaolan, you have to remember Wait, what I did is for your own good, and I'm not here anymore, you must stay by Lin Yan's side, you know?"

Fortunately, it is not a sad scene now, Chen Xiaokai said this with a smile, and the atmosphere is quite relaxed.

The strange fire civet is usually like a naughty boy, but now it is surprisingly sensible, nodding its head solemnly.

Chen Xiao laughed, and then said to Lin Yan: "The strange fire civet is a growth-type spiritual pet, and has great potential in the future. I hope that Brother Lin Yan can be its master, so that it will have a sense of belonging."

"Okay." Lin Yan replied.

Lin Yan is very aware of the preciousness of the strange fire civet. Once the strange fire civet reaches the top level of strength, it can spit out five-colored strange fire or even seven-colored strange fire from its mouth. He has seen the colorful strange fire with his own eyes on the snow illusion plateau. It can burn the space of Shuofeng.

You must know that the Shuofeng area is many times stronger than ordinary space, but it can't resist the burning of colorful strange fire. If it is an ordinary space, it can't resist the colorful strange fire even more.

Therefore, the strange fire civet definitely belongs to the kind of spiritual pet with great potential. Once it breaks through to the top level of strength in the future, it will be the most powerful helper around me.

Lin Yan also wanted to have a strange fire civet, and he would not deny this.

Lin Yan then said generously: "Although I also have selfish intentions towards the strange fire civet, please rest assured Chen Xiaokai, I will definitely treat the strange fire civet kindly."

Afterwards, the two discussed the itinerary.

Chen Xiaokai decided to go back to Xiaoshui City, after all, it was the place where he was born, even if he died, he would return to his roots.

However, Chen Xiaokai declined Lin Yan's proposal to go back to Xiaoshui City together. Although he knew that Lin Yan wanted to protect him, Chen Xiaokai thought that having one more person would easily reveal his identity. Yes, causing the characteristics of the strange fire civet to be very obvious.

Now he decided to re-dye the hair color of the strange fire civet, and restore the color of the strange fire civet's hair when he returned safely to Xiaoshui City, so that the strange fire civet would dress up like an ordinary cat along the way.

As for the itinerary, Chen Xiaokai decided to follow the long-distance horse team.

Although the cavalry will not go directly from Zhongzhou City to Xiaoshui City, they can transfer to other cavalry on the way, so it is not easy to be discovered.

But then Chen Xiaokai asked Lin Yan to do something.

"Lin Yan, when I was imprisoned by Cao Jinshan, Cao Jinshan snatched the jade pendant around my neck. This jade pendant was left to me by my parents. I have always cherished it very much. Now I have to leave here, but I have no ability. Then go to Cao's house to get back the jade pendant, can you help me?"

Lin Yan directly agreed.

"We will leave with the town's long-distance horse team at four o'clock tomorrow morning. Before that, you stay in this temple. I will go to Cao's house and be back soon."

After speaking, Lin Yan quickly left the ruined temple.

Under the cover of night, Lin Yan flew in the air in the direction of Cao's house.

At this time, Li Jian and Wang Bin had already searched the medical clinics and inns in the most prosperous area of ​​Nancang County. After finding Lin Yan, they continued to expand the search area and began to search around the most central part of the county. Xiushan Town outside the suburbs was far from being found.

What's more, they don't even know that the person they are looking for is not leaving Nancang County at this moment, but rushing to the center of the county.

Without any disguise, Lin Yan landed in the backyard of Cao Mansion.

Then, Lin Yan went to Cao Jinshan's room smoothly.

He had been here once before, and now that he came back, he was already familiar with it. As expected, there was a person in the room, but he was not asleep. Lin Yan pushed the door open and entered, and found a woman sitting at the table.

"You are Cao Jinshan's wife, right?" Lin Yan took a step forward, and his figure strangely arrived in front of the woman.

Zhang Cuihua was startled. She had seen Lin Yan holding her husband hostage at night, so she recognized Lin Yan. When she saw Lin Yan walking towards her, she subconsciously wanted to shout for help.

"Don't yell, or I'll kill you if you're a woman."

Lin Yan's voice was neither heavy nor cold, but it just made Zhang Cuihua dare not have any thoughts of resistance.

She just stared at Lin Yan with timid eyes, feeling terrified in her heart.

"Could it be that he found out that I hired Li Jian and Wang Bin to kill him?" Zhang Cuihua thought in her heart, feeling helpless and terrified.

But since Lin Yan said that she was not allowed to yell, she had no choice but to suppress her panic, not daring to make too much noise.

"You are Cao Jinshan's wife."

Zhang Cuihua nodded.

Seeing Zhang Cuihua's soul-stirring expression, Lin Yan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I didn't intend to kill you. As long as you cooperate, I guarantee you will be fine."

Hearing these words in Zhang Cuihua's ears, Zhang Cuihua couldn't believe it, but soon she became calmer.

"It should be that the matter of Li Jian and Wang Bin has not been exposed yet. He came here for other reasons."

Thinking of this, Zhang Cuihua nodded again, and said in a low voice, "I will do whatever you want me to do, as long as you don't kill me."

After all, Zhang Cuihua showed a resigned expression.

Lin Yan smiled, he did not deny that Zhang Cuihua was young and beautiful, with a plump figure and mature charm like a young woman, but the purpose of his coming here was not what Zhang Cuihua thought.

"I don't rob sex."

Lin Yan said solemnly: "Let me ask you, where is the jade pendant that your husband Cao Jinshan took away from Chen Xiaokai?"

Zhang Cuihua breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that this person came here for no other purpose, just to get back Chen Xiaokai's jade pendant, but then Zhang Cuihua thought of something, so she quickly suppressed the idea of ​​naming the place where the jade pendant was placed.

"Yupei, I don't know! I'm busy with business, and I rarely stay with Cao Jinshan. I don't even know he took Chen Xiaokai's jade pendant!" Zhang Cuihua said blankly.

Lin Yan snorted coldly.

Zhang Cuihua's initial surprise disappeared suddenly, and then she put on a blank expression to prevaricate him, which he could tell at a glance.

Lin Yan picked up a small silver jug ​​on the table, kneaded it a few times in his hands, and then let go of his hand, and a lump of scrap metal like a doughnut fell back on the table.

"You're telling a lie. I don't like other people cheating. If you cheat me again, hum, you know the consequences."

Zhang Cuihua was startled when she saw the intact silver jug ​​turned into a metal lump in Lin Yan's hands. She thought her body was made of meat. Not anymore.

And when Lin Yanbing said the cold words, Zhang Cuihua became frightened again, and shivered a few times uncontrollably.

From Lin Yan's eyes, she saw a trace of ferocity like a beast, and she absolutely believed that this man could do what he said.

"What should I do? If you tell me where the jade pendant is placed, you will lose a lot. No, I can't tell."

After briefly weighing the gains and losses in her mind, Zhang Cuihua said timidly with a fearful expression on her face: "I said, I said, my husband Cao Jinshan did take a jade pendant from Chen Xiaokai, and my husband also said that the jade pendant was of high quality. , so he has given the jade pendant to the governor of Nanyang Prefecture."

"Really." Lin Yan frowned.

"Hero, how dare I lie to you!" Zhang Cuihua turned pale with fright, and said hastily.

Lin Yan stared at Zhang Cuihua.

Zhang Cuihua's heart was beating drums, her heart was pounding, but she still gritted her teeth and held on, showing no panic.

After staring at Zhang Cuihua for a few seconds, Lin Yan suddenly looked away.

"In that case, you're fine."

Lin Yan turned around and walked towards the door, his figure quickly passed the threshold and went outside.

Zhang Cuihua didn't dare to yell, she was afraid that Lin Yan would come back, but Zhang Cuihua glanced at the bedside table beside the bed, secretly thinking that she had finally fooled around.

Thinking that the treasure that was kept together with the jade pendant was still in her hands, she let out a long breath.

But in the next moment, Zhang Cuihua's heart was about to jump out.

Lin Yan actually came back.

"Hero, you, why are you back again?" Zhang Cuihua stammered.

Lin Yan sneered and said, "Just now you acted well!"

Zhang Cuihua's heart suddenly went cold.

"Open the bedside table for me." Lin Yan said coldly.

From the very beginning, Lin Yan never really believed Zhang Cuihua's words, and going out temporarily was just a small trick he devised. When he left the room, his spiritual sense still captured Zhang Cuihua's movements clearly.

When Zhang Cuihua looked away from himself and landed on the bedside table, he understood where the jade pendant was stored.

"Hero, what are you talking about, what kind of bedside table are you opening!" Zhang Cuihua continued to pretend to be deaf and dumb, trying to get away with it.

Lin Yan snorted twice, and his eyes fell on the pile of scrap iron on the table.

Zhang Cuihua followed Lin Yan's gaze and was stunned.

Zhang Cuihua originally had a little hope left in her heart, but she fell to the bottom. She knew that she would never be able to deceive Lin Yan again.

Under Lin Yan's surveillance, she got up, walked to the bed, and opened a movable wooden board on the bedside table.

The hollow bedside table appeared before Lin Yan's eyes,
