Chapter 63: A Letter from Cold Smoke
Zhang Zhixuan had just returned to the mountain gate, and before he had rested for a few days, he received a message from the patriarch asking him to go to the back mountain.
Zhang Zhixuan hurriedly went to the back mountain and found that things may not be simple.
After a cup of tea, several other elders who were still above the mountain gate also came one after another, so many elders came, there must be something big happening in the family.
Zhang Zhixuan thought about it in his heart, and he didn't know what important things were in the family recently, just when he was racking his brains, he only heard the patriarch Zhang Leqian say: "The reason why I called everyone over today is because I received a letter from Qingxuanzong.
The letter was written by Han Yan, and the content was basically in addition to reporting safety, hoping that the family would send a few capable people to help her earn some good deeds and prepare for the exchange of Tsukidan in the future.
It has been five years since Han Yan cultivated to the ninth level of Qi cultivation, and now it is almost time for the Qingxuan Sect to compete for the Zhuji Dan, in order to avoid accidents, Han Yan hopes that we will send people over to help her earn some good deeds of the sect in exchange for the Zhuji Dan. ”
Seeing Zhang Zhixuan's face full of confusion, the patriarch glanced at him and continued to explain: "Han Yan is also known as Zhang Mengxi in the family, her nickname is Han Yan, and she has been joining Qingxuanzong for more than fifteen years.
She is an Ice Spirit Root Cultivator, and in order to make her go further, when she was a teenager, your Nineteenth Uncle personally sent her to Qingxuanzong.
There was also some turmoil in the past, and the two of them almost died on the road, for which I was furious and executed two traitors who colluded with outsiders and leaked family news.
At that time, you were still young and had just started cultivating, so you didn't know the details. ”
In the constant chatter of the patriarch, Zhang Zhixuan knew that Zhang Hanyan, who he occasionally heard about and felt mysterious when he was young, was a real monk of the Zhang family.
She has a very close kinship relationship with Zhang Tairen, the patriarch of the founding school, and Zhang Chuyun, who developed the Zhang family. She is the fourth generation of the Zhang family, the great-grandson of Patriarch Tairen, and the niece and granddaughter of Patriarch Chuyun.
If according to the ordinary generation, her generation is more than that of the patriarch.
The patriarch Zhang Leqian is more than 160 years old this year, but his father and ancestors are ordinary mortals, and according to the genealogy, he is the sixth generation of the Zhang family.
However, the hierarchy of monks is not strictly based on the mortal ranks.
Unless it is the blood relationship of the upper and lower generations of relatives, they will inherit the generational line of their father's generation in the family monks.
For example, Zhang Zhixuan's father is a monk of the Mengzi generation, he will inherit his father's generation and become a monk of the Zhizi generation, otherwise he will be ranked according to the age of the family, and he will be regarded as a monk of the Sizi generation.
According to the blood relationship in the mortal world, although this Zhang Mengxi is only in his thirties this year, his seniority is nine generations higher than Zhang Zhixuan, and he doesn't know what to call his aunt and grandmother.
But in terms of the age of the monk, she is only one generation higher than Zhang Zhixuan, and for the time being, she is the youngest monk of the Meng generation.
Hearing this sudden news, the fourth uncle, Zhang Menglong, said happily: "If Hanyan can build a foundation, the situation of the family will be slightly better." At the very least, there are monks in the Qingxuan Sect who can speak, and they can borrow the huge resources of the Qingxuan Sect to some extent.
Since the first Yun Patriarch sat down, the family in Qingxuanzong mainly relied on Yunzhi mother-in-law to take care of it, and now Yunzhi mother-in-law's longevity is about to arrive, once Yunzhi mother-in-law sits, what face does our family still have in Qingxuanzong? ”
The fifteenth uncle, Zhang Mengchong, listened to the words of the fourth uncle and agreed: "The fourth brother is right, Han Yan has been to Qingxuanzong for more than ten years, and he has never opened his mouth to the family.
When she opened her mouth at this time, she must have encountered something difficult, as long as she can build a successful foundation, she can alleviate the unfavorable situation of the family.
Moreover, Hanyan's spiritual root is very good, and there is a great possibility of advancing to the Purple Mansion Stage, as long as she becomes a Purple Mansion Stage monk, the family will prosper again. ”
Patriarch Zhang Leqian let everyone express their opinions, and then said with a final word: "Since everyone agrees to go, we will dispatch the most elite manpower."
This time, go to Qingxuanzong, Meng Long, Meng Chong, Meng Qin, and Zhixuan, and you four elders will go together.
Meng Long is a third-order formation mage, and with the formation method, even if the four of you meet a foundation building monk, you will be able to fight, and it is unknown who will kill the deer at that time?
With the four of you taking action, you have to have experience and experience, and you have to cultivate and cultivate, and I am completely relieved. ”
After everyone finished discussing, they began to say goodbye to their relatives, and early the next morning, the four of them went down the mountain with each other and went straight to the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong.
The mountain gate of Qingxuanzong is close to the mountains of the Southern Wilderness, which is about the same distance as the last time Zhang Zhixuan went to the Southern Wilderness, but the black mountain is a little easter, while the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong is a little westerly.
Qingxuanzong straddles the two spiritual mountains, and Qingyang Mountain and Zhongxuan Mountain cross and converge, bringing together the essence of the two spiritual veins, and jointly casting the foundation of this sect near the Southern Wilderness Mountain.
Originally, Qingxuanzong created the mountain gate only to monitor the movements of the Southern Desolate Demon Beasts, which was the first line of defense established by human monks in front of the Southern Desolate Demon Beasts.
Over the past thousands of years, with the continuous opening and enterprising of human monks, Qingxuanzong has gradually gained a firm foothold, turning the three southeastern counties into the hinterland of human existence. He also established several monk towns in the Southern Wilderness, gradually spreading his influence to the mountains of the Southern Wilderness.
Compared with the chaotic vicinity of Montenegro, the monk town controlled by Qingxuanzong also looks more orderly, and Zhang Zhixuan and the four of them have basically not encountered any accidents along the way, let alone seen such a vicious incident as killing people and seizing treasures.
Several people went straight to the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong and handed the letter to the mountain gate.
The fourth uncle, Zhang Menglong, was old and refined, and quietly handed a spirit stone to the heart of the acquaintance.
Qingxuanzong has a vast area, their mountain gate spans the two major spiritual mountains, there are enough miles in radius, a monk in the Qi cultivation period, running all over the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong, it will take a month or two non-stop.
While waiting for the news, Zhang Zhixuan and the four of them lived directly in the mortal town outside the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong.
Near the mountain gate of Qingxuanzong, especially on the northern side, there are countless small towns scattered among them. Most of the mortals in these towns were descendants of the Qi cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect.
They enjoy the care of the Qingxuan Sect and live and thrive in a safe environment.
After thousands of years, the population of these towns has become more and more numerous, and it has surpassed the three southeastern counties, and now most of the beginner monks of the Qingxuan Sect are selected from these mortal towns.
Zhang Zhixuan and the others waited for more than two months before the little aunt Zhang Hanyan walked out of the mountain gate to greet them.
After all, the territory of Qingxuanzong is thousands of miles, and there are hundreds of spiritual veins in the spiritual mountains inside. It took more than two months from the time I received the letter to the time I came to the mountain gate.
