C1741 Master Ling
Very soon, a disciple arrived in front of them and spoke to Han Feicheng, the Zhang Family Head, and Zheng Le. "Two Senior Brothers, the Zheng Family Head, Master has ordered that if the Zhang Family has any matters to attend to, you can ask Junior Brother Lin Li in front of the two Senior Brothers, you cannot bring Junior Brother Lin Li out."
Hearing this, Han Feicheng and the Zhang Clan Head's expressions immediately became unsightly.
This disciple was the Zhang Clan Head said, "Master is refining medicine and cannot come out. I hope you can forgive him."
"Haha, little brother, go tell your master that I, Zhang Feng, am already very happy to be able to get his word. Why would I complain to him?" Zhang family's Zhoufeng could not help but laugh.
Although he was smiling, he was already cursing Master Ling in his heart.
He only dared to secretly curse in his heart. After all, Master Ling was someone who was polite to the mayor when he saw him.
"Leader Zhang, I will carry this message with me." The disciple nodded.
At this moment, Han Feicheng couldn't help but ask, "Junior Jia, is this really what Master said?"
He could not understand, how could Master Ling protect Lin Long, so he could not help but say such words.
"Eldest senior brother, of course this is what Master said. How could I dare to speak carelessly ?" If you don't believe me, you can ask Master. " This Junior Jia said with a wronged expression.
"Alright, then I'll ask Master later." Han Feicheng said unwillingly.
Then, he looked at Zhang Feng and asked, "Leader Zhang, do you want to ask Lin Li something?"
"Of course!" Zhang Feng immediately said.
Although he couldn't bring Lin Long out, he still had to ask. He might be able to get something out of him.
"Alright, let's go to the main hall." Han Feicheng pointed at the hall in front of them.
Afterwards, the four of them headed towards the main hall.
After entering the hall, Han Fei Sheng looked at Lin Long and said, "Lin Li, stand in front and let the Zhang Family Head ask you a question."
After he finished, he politely said to Zhang Feng, "Clan Head Zhang, please take a seat."
The two of them sat down after a brief exchange of courtesies. As for Zheng Le beside them, Han Feicheng naturally looked at him with a darkened face.
After the two of them sat down, Han Feicheng looked at Lin Long again, "Lin Li, whatever Clan Master Zhang asks you about, just answer honestly. Do you understand?"
"Junior brother understands." Lin Long said indifferently.
Zhang Feng, who was at the side, immediately said with a gloomy face, "Lin Li, let me ask you, did you clash with my son Zhang Feng?"
"That's right, I did get into a conflict with him. However, he was the one who made the first move against me." Lin Long said indifferently.
"I don't care who attacks. I only want to ask if you were the one who dealt with him ruthlessly back then." Zhang Feng said coldly.
"Of course, I want to kill him. I won't deny that." Lin Long smiled indifferently.
Since the conflict had already broken out, he didn't mind letting it go deeper.
"Brat, you are looking down on my Zhang Family!" Zhang Feng could not help but get angry, and then he slapped the chair below him.
How could he not be angry? Lin Long, a mere little beast practitioner who came out of Yang Le Town, actually spoke to him like this to a patriarch of a large family.
"Leader Zhang, this is not the Zhang Family." Zheng Le reminded.
These words naturally made Zhang Feng angry. However, he knew that he could not show it, so he forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart.
"For the sake of Master Ling, I won't bother with you!" Zhang Feng gritted his teeth and said.
"Leader Zhang, if you have something to say, then say it. Don't be like this. We two senior brothers are tired even if you don't want to." Lin Long said indifferently.
"You ?" These words made Zhang Feng so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Lin Li, how are you speaking to the Zhang Family Head? Do you know where you stand? Moreover, you must know that you have yet to become a disciple of his Master. You can be chased out at any time!" Han Feicheng said with a dark expression.
"Thank you for the reminder, Big Senior." Lin Long said.
That being said, his face didn't look worried at all.
How could this brat be so confident? Could it be that he had some sort of confidence? Seeing Lin Long like this, such a thought flashed across Han Feicheng's mind.
After suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhang Feng looked at Lin Long and asked, "Lin Li, where have you been these past two days?"
"Other than staying here, I'm staying in an inn. What do you mean by that, Master Zhang?" Lin Long pretended to have a face of doubt.
Naturally, he knew that Zhang Feng had come because of Zhang Feng.
"If you don't believe me, you can go and ask." Lin Long added.
Hearing Lin Long's words, Zhang Feng frowned, and then asked: "Ever since that day of the exam, did you see my son Zhang rushing here?"
"To be honest, I've never seen him before." Lin Long shook his head, then pretended to ask: "What's wrong with him?"
"Nothing." Zhang Feng said.
Although most of the people in the city already knew about Zhang's disappearance, he didn't want to say it out loud.
"Alright, gongzi, that's all I have to ask." Zhang Feng said.
When he asked these questions, he was naturally staring straight at Lin Long, but he realized that he could not discern anything from Lin Long's body.
Therefore, he could only give up because he knew that he wouldn't get any information if he continued to ask.
Of course, if he brought Lin Long outside, it would be different. He could absolutely force Lin Long to say what he did not know of the situation.
But now, because of Master Ling's interference, he could only do so.
What virtue and ability did this fellow have to make Master Ling protect him? At this moment, he had the same thought as Han Fei.
Staring fiercely at Lin Long, Han Feicheng said to Zhang Feng, "Leader Zhang, I will send you out."
Zhang Feng who stood up did not immediately leave, but looked towards Lin Long and said, "Lin Li, do not let me grab onto your weakness, otherwise, my Zhang Family will not be courteous to you!"
With that, he walked out.
"Thank you, second senior brother." Lin Long said while looking at Zheng Le.
"Junior-apprentice Brother Lin, don't thank me. It's because of the Blackstone Fruit that you said that makes Master interested in you. Otherwise, it would be useless even if I were to speak up for you." Zheng Le said.
The Black Stone Fruit was the kind of black thumb-sized fruit used by Lin Long to refine Qi Pills around Yang Le Town.
Yesterday, he had accidentally seen Zheng Le fiddling with a Dark Stone Fruit, and Lin Long had immediately mentioned the use of the Dark Stone Fruit.
Naturally, he would not reveal all of his knowledge of the blackstone fruit. He only said that he had unintentionally discovered a little of the blackstone fruit's effects.
Zheng Le didn't believe it at first, but he still went back to test it out. After testing it out, his face immediately revealed a shocked expression.
Because he realized that Lin Long was right.
Because, he naturally held a higher opinion of Lin Long than him.
The reason why Lin Long said this was because he wanted to increase his relationship with his second senior brother. He could tell that Zheng Le's way of doing things was honest, not like Han Feicheng who was hiding a knife in a smile.
As expected, Zheng Le helped him a lot today.
"Second Senior Brother, are you telling Master about the effects of the Black Stone Fruit?" Lin Long asked.
I didn't want to tell Master so quickly. After all, Master has been refining a type of pill for the past few days, but after discovering that Clan Head Zhang and Han Feicheng wanted to forcefully take you away, I knew that there was no other choice. At that time, I immediately went to Master's pharmacy to tell him about the blackstone fruit and your matter. Zheng Le said.

In a secluded corner outside the courtyard, Zhang Feng looked at Han Feicheng and asked, "Young Master Han, what exactly is it that makes Master Ling speak up for that kid?"
"I don't know either." Han Feicheng shook his head and added, "But don't worry, Zhang Family Head, I'll ask around and find out why Master protected that kid. I'll tell you why later."
"Thank you, Young Master Han." Zhang Feng nodded.
Only after that did Zhang Feng leave, while Han Feicheng directly walked towards his master's medicine store after entering the courtyard.
When he arrived outside the pharmacy, he saw two disciples guarding the entrance. One of them was the junior brother Jia from before.
"Greetings, eldest apprentice-brother." The two of them greeted him respectfully when they saw him.
"Yes." Han Feicheng nodded and asked, "Master is still refining medicine?"
"I haven't heard anything in a long time. It should have stopped." Junior Jia said.
"Eldest Brother, what's the matter?" The person beside him asked.
"I have something to ask Master." Han Feicheng said.
After the two of them looked at each other, Junior Jia said to the inside, "Master, Eldest Senior Jia said he has something he wants to talk with you about."
"Come in." An aged voice came from inside.
"Yes." Han Feicheng pushed the door open and walked in.
Sitting on a bench inside was an old man with white hair. He was Master Ling.
"Greetings, Master." Looking at Master Ling, Han Feicheng said respectfully.
"Yes." Nodding his head, Master Ling asked, "Are you here for Lin Li's matter?"
"As expected, I can't hide my disciple's matter from Master." Han Feicheng couldn't help but laugh.
"Master has watched you grow up, how could she not understand you?" Master Ling said.
With that, he stood up, walked to the table in front of him and grabbed a black thumb-sized fruit. He turned around and looked at Han Feicheng. "What's this?"
"Isn't this the Blackstone Fruit?" Master, what are you doing here? " Han Feicheng asked doubtfully.
Due to the hardness of the Black Stone Fruit, it was often played with by some children. He had never seen Master Ling play with it before, so he was naturally surprised now.
"This Blackstone Fruit actually has some medicinal value." Master Ling said.
"Medical value? It can't be? " Han Feicheng couldn't help but say.
"That's right." Master Ling nodded his head in affirmation.
"Then how did you find out, Master?" Han Feicheng was puzzled again.
It's not easy to discover a new medicinal herb.
"No, I didn't." Master Ling shook his head.
"Then, which master discovered it? It's the one who came to look for you, Master Wang? " Han Feicheng couldn't help but ask.
Recently, only an alchemist with the surname Wang had come to look for Master Ling, which was why he asked such a question.
"Neither." Master Ling shook his head again.
"Then, who exactly is it?" Han Feicheng was even more curious because other than them, there weren't any other alchemists around.
"It's Lin Li." Master Ling said.
"Lin Li? How is this possible? "How could he possibly discover the medicinal value of this Black Stone Fruit?" Han Feicheng couldn't help but be surprised.
If Zheng Le found out that he was still willing to believe, then Lin Long found out that he wasn't willing to, because Lin Long clearly wanted to come to their place to learn alchemy. Furthermore, he was young, how could he discover new medicinal ingredients?
"Zheng Le told me, I believe him." Master Ling said.
"Zheng Le said that you haven't tried it out yet. Who knows, it might be from that Lin Dong." Han Feicheng couldn't help but ask.
"No." Master Ling shook his head, "I've tested it, and it's indeed just as Lin Li said. This Black Stone Fruit can react with the Black Blue Grass and enhance the condensation effect of the Black Blue Grass, and that way, the success rate of the Black Blue Pellet made from Black Blue Grass is increased." Master Ling said.
"It can't be. The Black Stone Fruit can react with the Black Blue Grass?" Han Feicheng couldn't help but be surprised.
Every alchemist in this world knew that Black Blue Grass was hard to condense, but the alchemists in this world had tried many methods to increase the probability of Black Blue Grass condensing, so Han Feicheng was naturally surprised by Master Ling's words.
"That's right." Master Ling nodded.
"But, if blackstone really had this sort of effect, wouldn't it have been discovered by other alchemists long ago?" Han Feicheng asked doubtfully.
After all, the Black Stone Fruit was not a rare item.
"There's one of the secrets in this, and that is to place the Black Stone Fruit in the fire for a period of time and then add it together with the Black Blue Grass. At that time, you will be able to react." Master Ling said.
"Is that so?" Han Feicheng frowned and thought for a moment before asking, "If Lin Li discovered it, why didn't he spread the effects of the Black Stone Fruit to us that day?"
"He's not an alchemist. He didn't even know that the Black Blue Grass could be used to make Black Blue Pellets. He just happened to notice that the Black Stone Fruit he stored in the fire for a period of time could react with the Black Blue Grass and didn't seem to have much of an impact on the Black Blue Grass." Master Ling said.
"Then why would he tell Zheng Le?" Han Feicheng was puzzled again.
"Zheng Le said that yesterday, he was playing around with the Black Stone Fruit and was coincidentally seen by Lin Long. Lin Long then mentioned the Black Stone Fruit and the Black Blue Grass. "At that time, Zheng Le was naturally surprised and immediately went to test it out. Then he discovered that it really can be used on the Black Blue Grass."
"Because of this, he came to find me after what happened today."
At this point, Master Ling's expression became serious. It was clear that he was unhappy about Han Feicheng trying to kick Lin Long out.
"Master, this also means that the brat just blindly ran into a dead mouse, but it doesn't mean that he's powerful." Han Feicheng immediately answered.
"You're wrong, who else would be so enthusiastic? Moreover, he could see that Blackstone really did react with the Black Blue Grass. If it was any other child, they wouldn't be able to see it at all, so his talent must be extraordinary!" As he said this, Master Ling's eyes lit up.
It was very obvious that he was very optimistic about Lin Long.
It looked like he had to think of a way to deal with that kid, and it would be best to chase him out! Seeing Master Ling like this, Han Feicheng thought even more.
"Alright, that's all I have to say. If you are interested in this Blackstone Fruit, you can go back and try." Master Ling continued.2
"Yes, disciple will go back and give it a try." With these words, Han Feicheng left the room.
As for Master Ling, he once again placed his gaze on the Black Stone Fruit. He felt that the Black Stone Fruit was not that simple and should be able to be used in other places.
