Chapter 11: Traces of Immortal Cultivators
He had already understood Xiao Yao's open-mouthedness, Lin Qianlan was angry, but she didn't want to play with him, "What does it have to do with you whose bed I climb?" Don't worry, I will never climb you." I'm going to take a shower, are you going to take a peek?"
only heard the "bang" on the roof, it should have been a broken tile, Xiao Yao's pale face turned into a pink cloth, "You, you, you, you are so shameless!"
Then a ray of light poured down from the roof where there were no tiles, and there was a small crackling of tiles, and then there was no sound.
Lin Qianlan's lips pulled out a bit of smugness, and she continued today's training. Sample! Dare to be thicker than her! My sister also fell off the festival when she was chatting online!
After breakfast, Lin Qianlan sat under the cloister and flipped through a book of scenery.
After living in the Tan family, she also learned that the Tan family was a scholarly family, but in the generation of Tan Chengxuan's father, Tan Zhang, he did not go on a career anymore, but started a business.
The Tan family has a large collection of books, all of which are available in various categories.
After Lin Qianlan got Tan Chengxuan's permission, she went to the study to choose some books about customs and anecdotes.
There are so many books that she can't choose them all at once, so she picks up a few books every day and brings them back.
Because the study was in Tan Chengxuan's courtyard, it became the origin of Xiao Yao's desire to climb into Tan Chengxuan's bed, and he was warned twice with contempt.
Forget it, don't see it like a child.
Lin Qianlan looked at it for a while, but didn't find what she wanted, so she changed to a copy of "Strange Stories of the Great Zhou" and flipped through it.
The Great Zhou Dynasty is the dynasty she is in now, and the language, writing, and civilization inheritance are very similar to ancient China.
She heard about these basic things when she was in Zhaojia Village, and the rest of the people in Zhaojia Village didn't know much.
From Qiao Yun's memory, we know that the Great Zhou Dynasty has been inherited for more than 500 years, and the folk customs of the past hundred years have opened up a lot, and there is a tendency to change towards the style of the Tang Dynasty in the previous life.
If you want to cultivate immortals, you must first find an immortal cultivator, which is also one of the purposes of her reading this kind of book, and it is also the main purpose.
The Tan family's books are numerous and complete, and there are legends about immortals in the books, but there are no records related to immortal cultivators.
Lin Qianlan flipped through more than twenty books, and finally found a little clue from them.
There is a strange story that records that a hundred years ago, there was a man surnamed a large family, whose wife abused the three sons born to his concubine, and secretly made people beat them half to death and threw them into mass graves.
Five years later, his wife suddenly went crazy at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet and slapped herself desperately, telling how she abused and killed two concubines and gave birth to children, and said that she poisoned the concubine, and hit her head on the pillar of the house after speaking.
The frightened Zhang family heard a sigh at this time, "My mother's revenge has been avenged, and my relationship with the Zhang family is over." ”
When he fixed his eyes, there was a man standing outside the door with his clothes fluttering, looking like the three sons, and in the blink of an eye, the man disappeared on the spot. Later, Zhang Dahu, who knew about his wife's evil deeds and did nothing, also collapsed on the bed.
In Lin Qianlan's opinion, the third son of the Zhang family was saved by an immortal cultivator, and he happened to have a spiritual root, so he worshipped his master and became an immortal cultivator, and came back five years later to take revenge.
There are many such things, all of which are recorded as ghost stories, and there is no mention of immortal cultivators.
Lin Qianlan vaguely understood that perhaps for some reason, immortal cultivators or mortal rulers didn't want ordinary people to know that there were still immortal cultivators in this world, so it was impossible for her to find the answers she wanted from these ordinary books.
She put down the book in her hand with some disappointment, remembering the man who had saved her.
He appeared like a god, it was dark at night, and although Qiao Yun's remnant soul couldn't see his face very clearly, it recorded the fairy grace of his body.
When casting the spell, the fairy clothes dance, rich as jade; when sighing, the sound is like flowing water hitting the stone, clear and refreshing; when leaving, it is like a glimpse, leaving an aftertaste.
"What a fairy!" If the events of that day were seen by others, there would be one more legend of a fairy in the world. Thinking of such a fairy-like character saving herself, Lin Qianlan felt warm in her heart.
Alas, why didn't he take himself away at that time? According to the law of traversal, isn't it generally time to save people to the end? If she was taken away at that time, how could she bother to find a way to cultivate immortals.
Probably because she didn't have a spiritual root, otherwise even the worst spiritual root might be taken away.
"Female thief, do you still want to see the immortals, don't make people laugh here!" a head wearing a green jade crown emerged from outside the courtyard wall of her courtyard.
Lin Qianlan glanced at him, leaned back on the bamboo recliner, closed his eyes and recuperated.
It is said that the ancestors of the Tan family were prime ministers, and in Tan Zhang's generation, Tan Zhang's sister, that is, Tan Chengxuan's aunt, married a powerful person in the current dynasty, what should he know?
But thinking about it again, since there is no record in the book, it is a secret that needs to be avoided, and she is not someone else, Tan Chengxuan may not tell her even if she knows, and she can't explain why she still knows about immortal cultivators after losing her memory.
If she became suspicious, she couldn't predict what would happen, and she never underestimated the minds and methods of the ancients.
It's a dilemma.
Xiao Yao waited on the other side of the wall for a while, and when he saw that she ignored him, he grabbed something from his body and threw it at Lin Qianlan.
Lin Qianlan heard the wind coming straight at her, so she wanted to dodge, where did she think that it was just such an inch, as soon as she sat up, the wind came to her eyes, and before she could see what it was, it hit her forehead.
With the pain, she clearly heard the muffled sound of "bang", what a ruthless hand should have been! This twelve-year-old boy's hand is too strong, right?
Her tears were sour. It turned out that the thing was a jade pendant, and there was a jade bead on the lower string, and the jade bead was thrown on the bridge of her nose.
Xiao Yao saw that he hit Lin Qianlan's forehead, and he was stunned for a while.
He was confident in his level of hidden weapons, originally the jade pendant would only fall on the book next to Lin Qianlan, how could he have thought that she would hide, and when he dodged, his forehead blocked the fall of the jade pendant, and the two collided together.
I felt guilty in my heart, but the words I said were accusations, "Why are you hiding!"
"It's really the wicked who sue first. Don't hide, are you a fool to me?" Lin Qianlan covered her forehead in pain, experiencing the pain of being robbed of her spiritual root, and this pain was bearable for her.
Xiao Yao on the other side of the wall disappeared all of a sudden, and Lin Qianlan scolded secretly: The bear child ran very fast.
"Miss Lin, what's wrong with you?" Xiaobi came in from outside with a food box, and saw Lin Qianlan covering her head and crying, so she hurriedly put down the food box and ran over.
"It's okay, I just accidentally hit my head. The sourness of her nose passed, and Lin Qianlan put down her hand, "Xiaobi, go and get me a hot hand towel, and I'll put a compress on my forehead." ”
