Chapter 107 Sound Transmission
at last.
Lu Lin discovered a book hidden under a tile.
"Flick of the Finger"
Lu Lin flipped through a few pages and found two large silver notes tucked inside the book.
"Two 10,000-tael notes? This fat monk is indeed rich."
Lu Lin landed on the roof, ignoring the grumbling fat monk beside him, and carefully read the Flick of the Finger in his hand.
[Flick of the Finger: 1/1000, Beginner]
"So tall?"
Although the Flicking Finger is a martial art at the five internal organs level, a method of attacking enemies with finger techniques, its advancement proficiency of a full thousand points still far surpasses other martial arts techniques that Lu Lin has seen before.
nice one.
This finger flick definitely has a powerful aspect that Lu Lin hasn't discovered.
Lu Lin silently put the manual into his pocket.
Looking at the fat monk's carefree appearance, it was clear that there was nothing else of value in the temple.
He slashed down with a single stroke.
A huge head rolled onto the ground.
"Um?"
Just then.
Lu Lin sensed two gusts of wind rapidly approaching.
Could it be that this fat monk has a hidden trick up his sleeve?
Lu Lin became alert and on guard. The next moment, two figures, one fat and one thin, appeared in front of Lu Lin.
The leader looked grim as he stared at the dismembered fat monk.
"Young man, what happened here? Who did this?"
Lu Lin never expected to run into an acquaintance here.
"I did it, Brother Suo, Brother Yang, we meet again."
The two who arrived were none other than Suo Yan and Yang Jianye, two members of the Three Swords Pavilion who had appeared after the burning of the Chen residence.
"We know each other?!"
Suo Yan became vigilant.
The identities of the members of the Three Swords Pavilion are kept secret; apart from insiders and high-ranking officials in the government and military, no one knows them.
Yang Jianye quickly remembered, "Brother Suo, I met this young man during Chen Dingkun's case."
After being reminded by Yang Jianye, Suo Yan quickly realized what was happening.
He was somewhat surprised. Lu Lin didn't look very old, yet he was able to slaughter dozens of people in the Hidden Gold Temple without letting anyone escape.
Yang Jianye stepped forward, a smile on his face. "Brother, your surname is Lu, right? It's only been a few days, but your cultivation has improved so much. You haven't started tempering your internal organs yet, have you?"
Lu Lin nodded.
"Huh? It's really been tempered?" Yang Jianye was just joking, but he didn't expect Lu Lin to admit it.
This caught him off guard.
"Then, were all the monks of this Hidden Gold Temple killed by you?"
Lu Lin nodded again.
Yang Jianye was immediately alarmed. He turned to look at Suo Yan and said, "Third Brother, this is bad. My mission is ruined again."
"It's really weird, there must be someone around Qingshui Bay who's working against me. I finally found two relatively easy missions, but they were both stolen from me when I went to Feisha Mountain and then Bai'e Mountain. Haha, my life is really tough."
As he spoke, Yang Jianye glanced at Lu Lin beside him and said, "By the way, you didn't kill the bandits of Feisha Mountain and Bai'e Mountain, did you?"
Lu Lin nodded. "Um, Brother Yang, I'm a ghostwriter. I was originally planning to become a top-tier ghostwriter and then find a way to join the Three Swords Pavilion, but I accidentally stole your mission."
"Good heavens, you're even planning to get a gold medal for ghostwriters. If you keep going like this, I'm afraid very few people in Qinbei Prefecture will be able to become official members of the Three Swords Pavilion this year."
"Your name is Lu Lin?"
"I haven't spoken yet," Suo Yan asked.
"Yes, Brother So."
"You've reached the Five Organs Refinement level now? Which organ are you refining?"
"kidney."
"It's the kidneys again. You guys, you didn't choose any of the other organs like the heart, liver, spleen, or lungs, you all chose to temper the kidneys first."
Suo Yan remained silent.
Yang Jianye, who was standing to the side, laughed and said, "Third Brother, your first organ to be tempered was also your kidney. You're the one talking about us."
Suo Yan waved his hand, "Alright, Lu Lin, you go hand in your mission first, we'll meet at the Jiangchao Inn in Qingshui Camp later."
"I'll tell you some things to note when you join the Three Swords Pavilion."
"Thank you, Brother Suo, oh no, thank you, Third Brother."
Suo Yan ignored Lu Lin and waved goodbye.
Yang Jianye winked at Lu Lin, "Hurry up and get things sorted out here. I saw in the mission that there are quite a few good things in this Treasure Pavilion."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Yang."
After the two left, Lu Lin went down the mountain and found a passing donkey cart or horse-drawn carriage to transport the gold, silver, and medicinal herbs from the temple back to the Qingshui Gang.
Lu Lin also had a study specially prepared for those ordinary secret manuals, allowing the members to consult and study them according to their contributions.
By the time I finished all that, it was already past noon.
Lu Lin ate a simple meal and then hurried to Qingshui Camp.
Jiangchao Inn.
Lu Lin met Suo Yan and Yang Jianye again.
"You said last time that you wanted to join the Three Swords Pavilion, but before that, I need to make it clear to you that the Three Swords Pavilion is not as easy as you think. We have to face death at all times."
"Moreover, the competition within the Three Swords Pavilion is fierce, and after passing through the initial newcomer stage, there will be many dangerous missions to follow."
"Tasks like mine, which involve mentoring newcomers, are time-consuming but relatively safe. However, you can only accept them after you've tempered your three filth."
"Within the Three Swords Pavilion, the basic structure is based on squads. The Three Swords Pavilion in Qinbei Prefecture has a total of twelve squads, which are rated every year. Higher-level squads can enjoy more resources, and lower-level squads even have to make offerings to higher-level squads."
"My third team currently has seventeen members, excluding you and Yang Jianye for now. In last year's evaluation, we ranked seventh. Every time we complete a mission, we have to give away 10% of our points. You can consider whether you want to join our team now."
Lu Lin pondered.
According to Suo Yan, it would be best for him to join one of the top six teams so that he could enjoy the offerings from the lower-ranked teams without having to go on missions every day.
However, in a short period of time, Lu Lin did not recognize any of the other team members.
In addition, based on his experience in judging people, Suo Yan, although not talkative and always wearing a sour face, was clearly a cold-faced but warm-hearted person.
Moreover, we ranked seventh last year, but it's not like we can only send seventh every year.
"Third Brother, I'm willing to join our Third Squad."
"Okay, I'll contact them right away and see who's willing to take you."
"You know the rules. Right now, you're just a trainee. You'll only become a full-fledged member after completing three missions."
Lu Lin nodded.
Then Suo Yan took out a beautifully carved black stone, and after he infused it with his blood and qi, the black stone turned gray.
"I am Suo Yan. I have found a promising newcomer at the Jiangchao Inn in Qingshuiying. Does anyone have time to mentor him?"
After Suo Yan finished speaking, he put down the stone in his hand, but did not stop channeling his qi and blood into the stone.
"This is a communication stone used within the Three Swords Pavilion. It can be used simply by inputting your Qi and blood."
"Of course, the range is limited to Qinbei Prefecture, and the sound transmission cannot penetrate the fog."
This was the first time Lu Lin had ever seen such a magical thing in this world.
It's somewhat similar to a walkie-talkie from my previous life.
