Chapter 18: First Sight
The town where Lin Jiu lived was not far away, and the three of Su Wen set off in the afternoon, arriving before the sun set.
On the way, Su Wen quietly gave Du Du a message, so that Du Du flew along the way, and the straight-line distance was closer.
Now that his cultivation is deepening, his divine soul is also growing, and the connection with Du Du is becoming clearer, and he is able to do some simple communication.
Dudu turned on his spiritual intelligence at the end of last year.,After eating that terrible ghost.,But now the IQ is still very low.,It's equivalent to a two-year-old child.。
His own changes are also very great, the growth plate that has been calcified seems to have begun to divide again, his height has jumped to 189 cm, his figure has become slender and vigorous, full of explosiveness, and his original ordinary appearance has become more attractive with the change of temperament. There is also the skin, the cultivation and strengthening of the meridians and internal organs by the Huangting Neijing Tuna method has a detoxification effect, the toxins in the body are eliminated, the skin is a little whiter, and it becomes smooth and delicate, like baby skin, which is more than enough to be a model.
The most important thing is the change of mentality and aura.
Taking on the task alone, killing ghosts, demons, and zombies, from the beginning of trembling and cautious, to now being at ease and not being surprised.
During this period, it is inevitable to encounter bandits, robbers, road ragepers, etc., as well as all kinds of local tyrants, parents who sell their children and daughters, desperate traders, and orphans who compete with wild dogs for food...... The variety of living beings is also a kind of tempering for his soul.
This kind of transformation is difficult for modern society to experience.
......
Like Shi Jian's father and son before, Lin Jiu also lived in a corner of the town, remote and poor.
Earthen walls, wooden houses, and thatched roofs.
However, the area is not small, and it is still a small two-story building.
When Su Wen and the three of them arrived, the courtyard was already full of young disciples, talking and farting.
However, after seeing the three of them, or Shi Jian, everyone was immediately stunned, straightening up and tensing their faces, just like a student meeting the teaching director.
If that's all there is to it, Su Wen found that almost everyone had a clear alienation in their eyes.
The popularity of his cheap ancestor is really indescribable!
However, Shi Jian's father and son didn't care at all. Especially Shi Shaojian, who followed closely beside Shi Jian, held his head high, and was full of pride.
"Uncle Master!"
"Uncle Master!"
The greetings along the way continued, and at first glance, it was respectful.
Shi Jian didn't squint, and strode into the house with his head held high.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Jiu with two apprentices stepping forward.
The familiar robe, the familiar eyebrows, the familiar mustache...... It was the first time Su Wen had seen this uncle and ancestor Zhenren, but there was a sense of familiarity everywhere.
Sure enough, it is the same as the famous and top-notch figure in the previous life!
"Senior brother!" Lin Jiu greeted first.
"Senior brother!" the juniors on both sides also stood up to greet him.
Shi Jian glanced at both sides, looked at Lin Jiu in front of him again, didn't say a word, walked straight to the main seat, and sat down.
A gesture of giving up who else I am.
Shi Shaojian followed closely behind and stood beside him.
"Uncle Shizu. Su Wen bowed slightly, greeted Lin Jiu and the seniors on both sides, and then walked behind Shi Shaojian and stood still.
Lin Jiu and the rest of the group were not surprised by Shi Jian's reaction at all, they were just surprised by the magnificence of the Dao robe on his body. It seems simple, only black and white, but even a layman can see that the materials are not ordinary, and it seems to be inlaid with gold wire, the entire Maoshan faction, there is no one so heroic!
It seems that the rumors that he has made a fortune are true.
Then, they all began to look at Su Wen again.
Shi Jian personally took Su Wen to Maoshan for naturalization, and by the way, he donated a sum of money to the elders of Maoshan, so everyone knew that he had accepted a grandson.
I was a little surprised by Su Wen's age, but this is a matter of Shi Jian's lineage, and no one wants to meddle with this senior brother.
However, the personality is not like those two, and they know how to say hello.
It also saves these people from embarrassment.
The two apprentices of Lin Jiu, who were originally chattering, were taken by the aura on Shi Jian's body, and stood behind Lin Jiu honestly without speaking. However, Su Wen was very dissatisfied with Su Wen only greeting the master and elders, but ignoring the two of them.
The two glanced at each other, not knowing what they were secretly exchanging.
"Who did this?" Shi Jian asked directly after taking his seat.
I already knew the reason, and I deliberately asked this question, just to embarrass Lin Jiu.
The two were born to clash with each other, and their personalities were not in harmony as early as when they were learning Taoism in Maoshan.
The juniors and disciples were no longer surprised, and they all sat upright, as if they hadn't heard.
"It's my two apprentices who have not become talents, Wencai and Qiusheng. Lin Jiu took two steps forward and replied honestly.
He also knows that he is suffering.
These two apprentices are really too angry, using a bicycle as a metaphor, that is, except for the bell that does not ring, it rings everywhere!
I just saw the apprentice of the senior brother, and found that his cultivation was far beyond his two apprentices, and his skin was smooth and clean, and his eyes were warm and crystalline. And he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was able to take the initiative to greet himself and others without being affected by Shi Jian, in comparison, he suddenly felt that his two apprentices were simply useless!
However, no matter how hard he is, he is also a disciple who has been raised by himself for many years.
"What do you mean by not being talented?" Shi Jian glanced at him and asked lightly.
"Master, it's stupid or stupid, or a donkey, or an idiot!" Shi Shaojian twitched the corners of his mouth and said in a loud voice.
This mouth is really stinky, and it is still in front of other people's masters and many uncles and disciples.
A different color flashed in Su Wen's eyes, and he lowered his eyelids slightly, not squinting.
There is also his "credit" in this!
The first "hero" is naturally Shi Jian's father, who has no way to teach his son, and he deserves it.
Then there are the two followers he selected for Shi Shaojian, the former children of the Eight Banners, who take him to Mazhangtai every day, eat, drink and have fun, and his personality has become more arrogant and domineering.
Xiahe Town can just meet these needs, but it can't be replaced by Shanghe Town, which doesn't even have a tailor shop.
"You ......" Qiusheng and Wencai were provoked by Shi Shaojian and became angry at the same time.
"It's my two apprentices who were careless ......for a while," Lin Jiu stretched out his hand to stop the two of them and explained apologetically.
"The disciples have no way, can they just shirk it by carelessness?" Shi Jian also stretched out his hand to stop him, interrupted him, and asked, "You invited me here today, do you want me to help you carry this burden?"
The corners of Su Wen's mouth twitched slightly.
Since his cheap ancestor gained fame and fortune, he has been a little inflated.
"We have already discussed, and we are going to use the Innate Bagua Array to collect these ghosts. No matter how good Lin Jiu's temper was, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, but he still forced his anger and explained.
"Now that you've all discussed it, what are you inviting me to do?" Shi Jian looked left and right, unconcealing his dissatisfaction.
The people on both sides were all the same as Su Wen, looking at their noses, noses, mouths, and mouths, treating themselves as mud tire wood carvings, and they were too lazy to mix in the contradictions between the two.
It's not a year, two years.
It's already very difficult for everyone to make a living, where can they still have the energy to worry about these things that are old and sesame and rotten grains.
"Senior brother, do you have any lofty opinions?" Lin Jiu blinked, put his hands behind his back, bowed slightly, and asked with a posture of asking for advice.
Su Wen couldn't help but glance at him.
Sure enough, it is worthy of the black-bellied Lin Fengjiao, who has touched Shi Jian's character accurately!
