The days passed so peacefully and with a little twists and turns.

Wei Wuyi looked at Xu Rui unpleasantly, Xu Rui looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and the two really couldn't communicate. Lingyu was helpless, so she simply broke off this thought, and occasionally led Xu Yi to spray her master to mediate her mood, even if it was filial piety.

After using up the last Danguo and recuperating for half a year, the spiritual jade cultivation rose sharply.

A few days ago, Fan Xianshu sent a letter to him, saying that he was going to retreat and impact the realm of perfection.

In addition to the change in the Buddha's heart encountered by Yuan Xiu, and the participation in the business, which was already a beat slower, others launched an attack on Yuanying Chengcheng.

Even Xu Wei is faintly close to that realm.

Lingyu decides to travel.

This trip is different from the past. In the past, I mainly met like-minded people and experienced adventures. On this trip, she plans to stay incognito and see the customs and customs of various places.

She was preparing to become a god.

After losing 50 years of cultivation and having just recovered, it is not appropriate to retreat. In that case, go out and prepare for the world.

As soon as she said this plan, Xu Wei agreed very much and decided to go with her.

The two of them were lightly armed and left the Taibai Sect quietly.

This time out, Lingyu did not announce the news, except for relatives and friends, others did not know that she was not in the sect, and Tianchi Feng even claimed that Cheng Zhenren was in retreat.

……

In the northwest of Lingcang, in a small town where mortal monks lived, two people appeared.

The two of them looked uncultivated on the outside, and rode into this small town called Quyang on horseback.

"The ancestral home of the Zhang family is here?" Lingyu asked.

"I guess so." Xu replied. After he learned about his background, he quietly checked it. His father, Zhang Linguang, was born in Quyang Town, northwest of Lingcang. There were several low-ranking monks in the family. It can barely be called a family of cultivating immortals.

As for his mother Wen Fang, although her background is also very ordinary, she is much better than the Zhang family.

At the beginning, his parents married a double cultivator, which can almost be said to be elopement, because the Wen family did not agree with Wen Fang, a rare foundation-building monk, marrying Zhang Linguang, who was also a foundation-building monk.

Zhang Linguang is not outstanding in terms of background or talent, at least not up to the requirements of the Wen family, the combination of the two. It will not bring any benefit to the Wen family.

After Wen Fang married Zhang Linguang, she never got the family's understanding, only a few sisters, who had a good relationship with her and had private contacts.

Later, Xu Wei's identity was revealed, and the Wen family also wanted to have a relationship with him. It's a pity that Xu Wei has no intention of admitting relatives to them at all, and the Wen family can only give up.

And the Zhang family, Zhang Linguang, a foundation-building monk, came out. It has flourished for decades, alas. Zhang Linguang died on the Linhai battlefield, and the Zhang family still declined.

With the level of the Zhang family, they had no access to high-level news at all, so they didn't know that the current Sword Monarch of the Zixiao Sword Sect had such an opportunity with their own family.

"Is this a search for roots?" Lingyu rubbed her arms, "Thinking of your original surname Zhang, I am a little ......"

It's not that the name is nice or ugly, after getting used to it, she feels that the name Xu Wei is very compatible with him, and then changes to a normal name, but she is not used to it.

"I didn't plan to change my last name back." Xu Wei said, "Whether it is changed or not, it is all me, why bother?" ”

Immortal cultivators don't have such a heavy concept of clan kinship, and they don't think that the surname is very important.

Besides, for Xu Wei, no matter whether he is surnamed Zhang or Wen, he is not qualified enough, because now he has no blood relationship with the Zhang family or the Wen family.

Zhang Linguang and Wen Fang are his parents, and this will not change, even if he no longer has their essence and blood, life is always given by them. But the Zhang family and the Wen family were just two strange families to him, and if it weren't for Lingyu's interest, he wouldn't even want to come and see it.

They entered the town and had already attracted the attention of others.

Looking at the clothes, it seems that he is from an extraordinary background, but he doesn't have any cultivation on his body, as if he is just a mortal - a person who cultivates immortals, who can ride a horse? Even if it's just a Qi Refining Cultivator, wouldn't riding a Spirit Crane be more immortal?

In fact, the reason why they rode horses was just that Lingyu was itching when she saw others riding horses on the road......

A man with a scarred face, who was setting up a stall on the side of the road, saw the two of them, turned his head and looked at the blacksmith shop.

In the blacksmith shop, a long-faced man nodded and motioned for the apprentice to follow.

After walking for a short distance, Lingyu suddenly smiled and said, "It's really interesting, being treated as a fat sheep." ”

Xu Wei said: "Don't pay attention to them, let's go ours." ”

The two walked slowly through the long streets, skirting the alleys, and finally stopping at a corner of the town.

"It should be here, right?" Lingyu looked at the dilapidated door plaque, on which were written the words Zhangfu, "It seems that the Zhang family is not doing well." ”

Xu said backwards: "If they were doing well, they might have come to the Zixiao Sword Sect to find me a long time ago." ”

Lingyu thinks about it too.

The two dismounted, went up and buckled the knocker: "Is there anyone?" ”

After a long time, an old servant opened the door and looked at them with a pair of presbyopia eyes: "Both, who are you looking for?" ”

Lingyu smiled kindly: "Old man, this is the Zhang family, right?" ”

Zhang ...... Oh yes, though, in two days there will be no surname Zhang. ”

Ling Yuqi said: "Why? Isn't the Zhang family a family in Quyang Town for hundreds of years? Are you going to relocate? ”

The old servant sighed: "Relocation, yes, I have to move!" Both, if you come to collect debts, I'm afraid there is nothing for you to move now, no, even the house has been sold. ”

Lingyu and Xu Yi glanced at each other, and both of them were surprised. Even if the Zhang family didn't have a monk, it was a big family for mortals, how could they get mixed up with this Cheng dù? This house looks so dilapidated, and it's not worth a lot of money.

"Old man, we are not here to collect debts, we are here to visit friends."

"Visiting friends?" The old servant was confused, "I don't know what ...... you want to visit?"

"His name is Zhang Linguang, and he says that he is from Quyang."

"Zhang Linguang ......" The old servant was very unfamiliar with this name, read it again, and shook his head, "Without this person, I'm afraid the two of you are mistaken." ”

Lingyu smiled: "But he said it very clearly, otherwise how would we find here?" ”

The old servant really couldn't think of it, so he said, "Otherwise, the two of you will come in and sit for a while, and when the master mother comes back, maybe you can remember." ”

As soon as Lingyu and Xu Yi entered, they found that the inside was more dilapidated than the outside.

This Zhang family, I'm afraid it has been ruined for a while, inside and out, it looks like it hasn't been repaired for decades, and many doors and windows are broken.

When they came in, they didn't see anyone, only this old servant, who led the way in front and talked in a rambling manner.

"The two don't look like bad guys, even if they are bad guys, the Zhang family has nothing to rob. You see, this house is broken like this, and even if it doesn't close, the thief won't come to the door. Only the foundation is still worth a little money, but it's a pity that it's sold! ”

"Old man, why are you selling this house?"

"What else? The family is defeated! The old servant said bluntly, "These hundreds of years of big family, if a loser is born, it will be over!" ”

Lingyu listened strangely: "Aren't there many people in the Zhang family?" "A hundred-legged worm, still dead but not stiff, as for such an empty one?

"That was a long time ago." The old servant led them to the main house, which looked barely neat, "When the old man passed away, pray that the young master will take over the family business." I can pray for the young master...... Alas, it's hard to put into words, in short, the Zhang family was defeated, and those side branches and branches ran clean, and now only we are left. Sit down, there is no tea at home, so you can drink saliva. ”

Most of the furniture in the main room was missing arms and legs, and the old servant found a bench that was still in good condition, wiped it with his sleeve, and invited them to sit down.

There was a coarse porcelain teapot on the table, but, as the old servant said, he couldn't even afford to drink the tea leaves, and all that came out was water.

Lingyu and Xu Yi sat down and continued to talk: "Old man, what you said about Young Master Qi is ......"

After pouring water for them, the old servant sat down on a small stool in the corner, took up the thin bamboo strips on the ground, and made a basket. His old eyes are dizzy, but he is quick to weave, and the thick cocoons on his hands must have been made by weaving baskets all year round.

"Young Master Qi is the current head of our Zhang family." Anyway, the house is sold, and the old servant has nothing to say, "Alas, Young Master Qi when he was a child was very smart, and the old man still expects him to enter the Tao and become an immortal master." Later, Young Master Qi really entered the Tao, and the old man thought that there was someone to follow, who knows...... Fortunately, the old man died early, otherwise, he would have to be angry! ”

Hearing what the old servant said interestingly, Lingyu asked with great interest: "Since you have entered the Tao and are monks, why does the Zhang family become more and more depressed?" ”

The old servant said: "Young Master Qi is obsessed with Dan Dao, and he closes the door to alchemy every day, and the money in the family has been exchanged for alchemy materials, so he is defeated!" ”

This answer was unexpected, Lingyu glanced at Xu Wei and said with a smile: "In addition to alchemy, what else does he like to do?" ”

The old servant shook his head: "Young Master Qi only likes alchemy, and ignores other things." ”

Lingyu really smiled now. I have encountered those who have lost their homes by eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and I have never encountered those who have lost their families by liking alchemy. Is this Young Master Qi a nerd who doesn't understand affairs, or an alchemy maniac? The Zhang family is getting worse and worse, doesn't he feel it?

"Where is your young master?"

The old servant replied, "I don't know, I guess I went to pick up medicine again!" Alas, he said that he had no talent for alchemy, but he just didn't listen! ”

When he arrived at this time, he was still thinking about alchemy, and he was really not an ordinary person, so Lingyu became a little interested.

As we chatted, the door was pushed open and a woman stepped into the room.

This woman is forty years old, and her charm is still there. Although the clothes are shabby, the demeanor is generous.

Seeing that there were guests in the house, she was stunned.

The old servant put down the half-woven basket and stood up, and called, "Master." ”

The woman nodded to the two Lingyu and said with a smile: "Old Sun, these two guests are ......."

The old servant was about to speak, but Lingyu intercepted his words: "This is the Zhang family's housewife?" We are friends of Ling Lang, and I heard that you are in some difficulty, so we came to take a look. ”

The old servant was stunned when he heard it, it didn't seem to be the case what he heard just now, was it because someone else was old and misremembered? (To be continued......)
