Chapter 288: Where to Stay?
Xiao Yu'er agreed, quickly changed into a robe, and quickly ran over and asked, "Sister Xiaolan, tell me quickly!" β
Xiaolan nodded, "Say as you go!" β
Saying that, he stood in front of the gatehouse with the little fat boy in his arms, took out a piece of rosewood half the size of a palm and inserted it into the transparent formation film, and a road for five people quickly appeared in front of the gatehouse, Xiaolan said, "Come in, everyone!" β
Lin Xi and the others followed Xiao Lan in, Xiao Lan turned around and pulled out the rosewood sign floating in the air, and then said, "This formation is called Qinyou Formation, and there is another name called Lying Formation." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Under normal circumstances, as we saw at the beginning, in order to reduce the consumption of aura, the formation looks weak, but when there is a foreign stimulus, it will return to its original appearance and attack the enemy."
Xiao Yu'er nodded, "It's still true to the name of the lying formation, it's too deceptive." β
Xiao Lan said with a smile, "Actually, the ancestor who invented this formation was very stingy, and he hid the spirit stones and was unwilling to use them, but he needed a formation to protect them, so he came up with this Qinyou formation to save spirit stones." β
As she was talking, a group of young men in Taoist robes walked in front of her, and before Xiaolan could say hello, the little fat boy in her arms flattened her mouth and shouted loudly, "Daddy! β
The young man who walked in the front raised his head Wen Sheng, and was obviously stunned when he saw the little chubby child, and then walked over quickly, smiled apologetically at Xiao Lan and took over the little chubby child.
"This girl, I'm sorry, my son is too naughty and has caused you trouble!" The young man said.
Xiaolan shook his head and was about to speak, when the group of young men also walked over, one of them looked at Xiaolan fixedly for a while, and suddenly rushed over and shouted emotionally, "You areβ"
"Little Blue?"
The man had a square face, a hooked nose, and was dressed in a bright red robe, very flamboyant, looking at Xiaolan and asking uncertainly.
Xiaolan nodded, and asked with a smile, "I'm Xiaolan, are youβ"
The man immediately raised his hand happily and said, "I'm Zhuo Lishen!" Do you remember that I don't? When did you come back, the ancestors still remember you! β
Xiaolan smiled and nodded, "Zhuo Lishen, you areβ"
Lin Xi glanced at Xiaolan, she must not have remembered this Zhuo Lishen, so she would change the topic.
However, Zhuo Lishen didn't notice it, he was excitedly telling Xiaolan, "We're going to find a place to compete...... Originally, I had been in the Holy Land, but a while ago, a guy accidentally blew up the Dan furnace and blew up more than a dozen houses...... The patriarch was furious, hehe, and drove us out, and forbade us to compete in the holy land. β
Xiaolan nodded, "Well, then I won't delay you, let's go first!" β
Zhuo Lishen smiled and patted his head, "Well, okay, let's go, you can go back quickly!" β
As he spoke, he beckoned several other young immortal cultivators to go with him, and the young man who had picked up the little fat boy earlier came over and said, "Thank you for bringing Ah Chou back!" β
Xiaolan smiled and said, "It's okay, this is our blue flower chinchille clan, I won't let it go, but you have to pay attention yourself, such a young child is easy to lose." β
The man bowed his head and whispered, "Thank you!" β
After speaking, he hugged the little fat boy and walked to the gatehouse.
"Is he planning to hold a child to compete?" Xiao Yu'er looked at the man's back and asked.
Xiaolan shook his head, "No, his bloodline is not pure, and he can't live in the Holy Land." β
Unlike the outside, which resembles a primeval forest, the inside is very much like an ordinary city, with wide bluestone streets, neat stone buildings, and tall trees that are also neatly ordered.
Xiaolan and a few people soon came to a large building in the center.
The building is an ordinary mortal one-story building, but because it is made of large stone blocks, it looks very atmospheric.
At the top of the building was a whole piece of black jade, carved with white fonts - the Blue Flower Chickmunk Clan, standing far away, and Lin Xi could feel the powerful momentum revealed on those fonts.
In front of the door, there are dozens of steps, and then ten white jade pillars surrounded by two people, which are carved with intricate patterns and a group of blue chinmunks.
"Let's go!" Xiao Lan led a few people up the steps and entered the hall through the white jade pillar.
The hall is not big, only about a hundred square meters, there is a table against the wall on the left, there are a bunch of papers on the table, and behind the table sits a beautiful and serious young woman, her breath has a sense of familiarity, it should also be from the blue flower chinmunk clan.
Seeing a few people coming in, the young nun raised her hand and knocked on the table, and when she saw them coming, she said in a gentle voice, "Please come and register." β
Lin Xi looked at Xiaolan, Xiaolan nodded, and walked to the table first.
Only then did Lin Xi see that what she regarded as a document was actually a pile of thin jade pieces, and the female cultivator took out a blank one from it and handed it to Xiaolan, "Everyone has to register!" β
Xiao Lan frowned and said, "They are our valued guests of the Blue Flower Chimbunk Clan, and they don't need to be registered!" β
The nun raised her head and said expressionlessly, "No, everyone who comes in will be registered, otherwise, I have the right to refuse your entry." β
Xiaolan was depressed, let alone registered, in the past, she only had a welcome share when she came here, but now it is different......
Seeing that it was not possible to be in such a stalemate, Lin Xi hurriedly walked over and said, "It's okay, isn't it just registration, I said you write!" β
Xiaolan wanted to laugh at Lin Xi's words, "It's not to register with a pen, but to leave a drop of blood and a wisp of aura." β
"Oh, that's okay!" Lin Xi said with a smile, and put his finger in his mouth as he spoke.
Xiaolan hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop it, turned to the nun and said, "We don't register anymore!" β
"Hey, Xiaolanβ" Lin Xi followed Xiaolan, and the group walked out of the hall again.
"Isn't it just a drop of blood and a wisp of aura? How did you react so much? Lin Xi asked puzzled.
"Can things like blood and aura leak out casually?" Xiao Lan hated that iron was not made of steel, and pointed at Lin Xi's head.
"But doesn't everyone have to register? Didn't they leak it too, isn't it nothing......" Facing Xiaolan's depressed expression, Lin Xi couldn't go on.
"No, they don't need blood and aura to register, just fill it out with a pen." Xiaolan explained, "The reason why we want to do this is actually for the three of you, because you are not from the Blue Flower Chimba. β
"So what now?" Lin Xi asked.
"I brought you here to meet the patriarch, so that in the future, everyone will not be restricted from moving around in the Holy Land. However, even if I don't go in, I can meet the patriarch, and the patriarch is my grandfather! Xiaolan said with a smile, and the rosewood card was exposed during the flip of her wrist.
In between, Xiaolan transported the aura to his fingertips, and then poured the aura into a circular indentation in the center of the top of the wooden card, "It's done!" Wait! β
At close range, Lin Xi saw that in addition to the circular indentation on the top, there was also a chubby and cute blue chipmunk carved underneath, seeing that Lin Xi was interested, Xiaolan flipped the wooden card over, there were not so many things on this side, only a pattern representing the formation.
Just looking at it, he felt a powerful aura coming towards several people, and several people looked up at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, a middle-aged monk wearing a black Taoist robe with a serious face walked over.
The moment he saw Xiaolan, his eyes instantly moistened, and he picked Xiaolan up and shouted, "Xiaolan! β
Xiaolan also pounced on him and shouted, "Grandpa! β
The two hugged for a while, but Xiaolan remembered that Lin Xi and a few people were watching from the side, so she hurriedly stood up and said, "Grandpa, my friend is watching!" β
The middle-aged man let go of his hand and laughed twice, and then looked at Lin Xi and the three of them, "So small, Shengyu, Jinhualu!" β
"Xiaolan, are these your friends? Don't introduce it to grandpa? β
Xiaolan nodded, pointed to the middle-aged male cultivator and said, "This is my grandfather, and he is also the patriarch of our blue flower chinchilla clan, you can also follow me to call grandpa!" β
Lin Xi shouted in unison, "Grandpa." β
The patriarch immediately showed a big smile, "Good boy, grandpa has something for you later." β
Lin Xi smiled, and pointed to Lin Xi and the others: "This is Lin Xi, this is Xiaoyuer, this is Xiaolu, they are all my friends." β
"Mm-hmm, okay, let's go, go in with grandpa first, and let grandpa entertain your children for you!" The patriarch said.
Xiaolan nodded, "Well, I just have something to tell you in detail." β
"Then let's go, what are you still doing?" Seeing that the little blue light didn't move, the patriarch urged.
"Grandpa, we went in just now, and that female cultivator asked me to drip blood and put a wisp of spiritual energy to seal it." Xiaolan sued without mercy, who made that female cultivator look down on her friend!
"Oh, then let her go home!" The patriarch said very cooperatively.
Xiaolan smiled and said, "Let's go!" β
The group re-entered the hall and was personally led by the patriarch, no one dared to stop them, and the female cultivator who was sitting at the table before also looked at a few people inexplicably.
Before he had time to look at the hall, he was led by the patriarch and turned left into a room.
The room is not much different from the ordinary room, only a large red sandalwood table is placed against the wall on the left, a chair with a back in the back, and then there is a row of bookshelves against the wall on the opposite side, and there are ancient books, antiques, magic weapons, elixirs, spiritual herbs and so on on the shelves.
On the opposite side of the bookshelf, in front of the table, is a row of chairs with backrests, and underneath them is a soft fur cushion.
"Sit!" The patriarch said, holding the pot and preparing to heat it to make tea, Xiaolan took the initiative to take it.
"Well, okay, you come, I don't know what kind of tea you like, it's all here, Xiaolan, you can do it!" The patriarch pointed to several round jars in the corner of the table.
Xiaolan nodded, made tea, even Xiaolu had a cup, and she put it on the ground.
"Grandpa, you can read the news that Ji Nan sent back." Xiaolan sat down and asked with a cup.
"Well, I see, you don't have to worry about it, the clan will take care of it. I've already sent two teams to search, and we should have news in a few days. β
"That's good!"
"By the way, I've recently got a few new good things, and you guys came just in time, just one for each person!" As he spoke, the patriarch leaned over and took out a handful of things from under the table.
When I put it on the table, it turned out to be six square pieces of jade.
Let's not talk about the quality of the jade, just at a glance, Lin Xi saw that the aura slowly flowing in the jade was very rich, and in this regard, it was a good jade, and it was very suitable for monks to wear.
"Grandpa, this is the Tongling Jade!" Xiaolan, who knows the goods, said in surprise.
The patriarch stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Well, good eyesight, this is indeed a psychic jade." There are six pieces here, one for each of you, one for Ji Nan, and one for your remaining friend. β
"Okay, thank you grandpa, then we're welcome!" As he spoke, he stood up and took four pieces of jade, kept one for himself, and gave the rest to Lin Xi and the others.
Lin Xi didn't want to take it, so Xiaolan forced it into her, "Take it, this is my grandfather's heart, anyway, he has a lot of treasures in the old man's family, not bad for these two!" β
The patriarch over there also smiled and persuaded, "Take it, it's just a small thing, just like Xiaolan said, there are a lot of treasures here." β
Lin Xi took it at this time, and Xiaoyu'er and Xiaolu also took it when they saw this.
"By the way, grandpa, where do I live?" Xiaolan asked.
The place where she lived before she left had already been lived in by other clansmen, and she came back in a hurry, and she didn't know if there was a suitable house, otherwise she would have to live outside, which would be a lot of trouble.
The patriarch tugged at his beard and pondered, then raised his head before Xiaolan became impatient and said, "There really isn't a suitable house left." β
"Then I'll live outside, but you'll have to shut up the troublemakers!"
The patriarch glared at her, "I haven't seen you for decades, your temper still hasn't changed, can you listen to me first!" Besides, if you bring your friends, can I let you live outside? β
"Hehe, there's no house, so where do you let me live, I can't sleep on the street, right?" Xiaolan asked.
"What nonsense, just live here!" The patriarch's beard fluttered, and his eyes widened.
"Well, though, don't let me hear who's talking and talking somewhere, or I'll not be soft." Xiaolan suddenly said solemnly, and the moment she spoke, she released the coercion of her whole body.
The patriarch not only didn't get angry but said in surprise, "Xiaolan, you are in the early stage of Mahayana!" β
"Good! Good! Good! Yes, worthy of being a descendant of my blue flower chinchilla clan! β
Xiaolan pouted, "Hmph, don't look at who I am!" β
The patriarch couldn't help laughing, and Lin Xi and the three of them also smiled slightly.
"Let's go, I'll show you the room!"
The group went out of the room, turned back to the hall, and turned to the right, there was a corridor, and there were rows of small rooms on both sides of the corridor, which I thought was living in these small rooms, but the patriarch did not stop until the end.
Lin Xi saw that there was a small door at the end of the corridor, and out of the small door, there was a large courtyard. Out of the yard is a stone house, which is also very atmospheric.
"This is it! This house is for you! The patriarch said.
Xiaolan nodded, looked at her surroundings, and asked, "Is thisβ"
The patriarch stroked his beard and said, "This house was originally used by the clan to place magic weapons, and those magic weapons were later put back in the warehouse, and this place was empty. β
"Alright, then we'll live!" Xiaolan said simply, blind hesitation is not a solution.
"Don't worry, I said this, who doesn't dare to talk nonsense, you let him come to me!" The patriarch said.
