Chapter 41: The Immortals
In the shrine, time seems to have frozen, and the atmosphere is indescribably weird.
At this time, the temperature I felt was colder than before.
It was as if I had stepped into the freezer, and I shivered from the cold.
Of course, these are all secondary, and my attention has been drawn to these immortals.
I looked at them.
They looked at me.
I didn't speak for a long time, and they were silent, and no one squeaked.
"Then what" I spoke a little uncomfortably, and looked at them in a cold sweat: "Then what are you immortals!" Xiao Yuan is polite! ”
Hearing my stylish greeting, they were still unmoved, and they were still silent.
At this time, a few old men standing in the corner suddenly came over with dry tobacco sticks.
These immortals are the only "people" who have their own props among the immortals present.
"You are the grandson of Old Man Yuan?" The old man who came over first, with a treacherous appearance with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, and a malicious glint flashed in his eyes: "Wash your grudge against the helm of the door?" ”
"The old fairy is auspicious." I nodded and said, "I am Yuan Changshan, that is"
"It's useless to say this." The old man next to me, who looked very kind with a smile on his face, waved his hand and interrupted me: "You are his grandson, so do it." ”
"What to do?" I was stunned.
"Old Yuan Tou'er drank with us at the beginning, and he also relied on us for a sum of money, since he died, this account must be counted on you."
The person who spoke was an old man standing in the middle, who had neither the appearance of a sharp-beaked monkey nor the slightest smile, and looked like a dead man, with a very rigid expression.
"Count me in?" I asked tentatively, "Why don't I give you a few tens of billions of burns?" ”
"Don't be that troublesome." The old man who was smiling nodded at me: "According to the generation, we belong to your grandfather's generation, talking about money hurts feelings, you can just kowtow to us in the past." ”
As he spoke, it pointed to the shrines on the offering table.
When I heard this, I hesitated, and when I saw that Zheng Xiaoxian was giving me a look and motioning for me to listen to them, I didn't think much about it, nodded and walked over.
"Knock three to you." The old man with the monkey's cheeks said.
"I want three too." The smiling old man said.
Finally, the old man with a rigid expression looked at me and said, "They are all immortal families cultivated by animals, I am a person anyway, for the sake of the same clan, you have to knock six to the master." ”
"You just have to crush us, do you?" The old man with the sharp-beaked monkey's cheeks was in a hurry.
"It's not a question of whether it's pressed or not, it's a rule." The rigid old man glanced at me and said calmly.
Seeing that these two old men were about to pinch up, Zheng Xiaoxian'er hurriedly came up to persuade her, dragging an old fairy with one hand, and persuaded helplessly: "Let him knock you six by himself, everyone take a step back, take a step back." ”
I didn't wait for the two old men to agree, and without thinking about it, I walked over and knelt on the futon, kowtowing eighteen times in a row, and even kowtowing to the smiling old man.
Seeing that I kowtowed so simply, the other immortals standing in the room also became interested.
"Bring me one!"
"I want it too!"
"Hurry up and don't ink!"
I saw that these immortals began to coax, and I was embarrassed to directly refute their face, so I laughed and said: "If you knock too much, it's boring, isn't it, these old-timers have something to do with my grandfather, so it's nothing to knock a few for them." ”
"yes." The rigid old man glanced at the immortal family present, and said coldly: "You guys are fucking foolish, why don't you usually see you talking so much." ”
"You eat first, and I'll clean it up later." Zheng Xiaoxian'er dragged me, smiled and said to those immortals: "You're welcome, eat more, the tribute incense is not enough, I'll have some later." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zheng Xiaoxian'er dragged me out of the shrine, and then closed the door.
"Xiao Yuan, don't mind, these immortals are actually like children, and their tempers are quite weird." Zheng Xiaoxian'er smiled bitterly and shook her head: "They don't mean anything else, you know?" It's just to have some fun with yourself. ”
"It's fine." I smiled and said, "What kind of immortal family are those three just now?" ”
"The one with a smile is from the Hu family, called Hu Tiansheng." Zheng Xiaoxian said to me.
Hearing this, I nodded, the old man did look a kind of shrewdness, I thought it was the Hu family from the beginning.
"The one next to him is Huang Baoshan of the Huang family, and the immortal family in our hall also calls him Mrs. Huang." Zheng Xiaoxian'er said.
Sure enough, the old man looked like a sharp-beaked monkey gill, how did he look like a rat essence, and he was really a weasel cultivator for a long time.
"What about the one who looks so rigid?" I asked curiously, "He said that he is of the same clan as me, and it should be an immortal family cultivated by human souls, right?" ”
As soon as I asked about the old man, Zheng Xiaoxian nodded, took out a cigarette from her pocket and handed it to me, and then slowly lit it for herself.
"Yes, it's a ghost fairy cultivated by the human soul."
After Zheng Xiaoxian'er said this, she talked to me about other things.
"According to the rules, in fact, the hall of Old Man Dong's family is not a regular hall, and the immortal family is not fixed." Zheng Xiaoxian'er said: "He is an orthodox shaman, different from us disciples, as long as he wants to, then he invites the immortal family of whichever way, and the immortal family of which way he has to come." ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Xiaoxian'er was vaguely proud on her face, raised her hand with a smile, and pointed to the shrine behind her.
"Formally calculated, in the entire three eastern provinces, my family's hall ranks first, the reason is very simple, other people's halls have only one or two pillars, and my family has six." Zheng Xiaoxian'er said with a smile: "The old fairy of the Hu family, Hu Tiansheng, the old fairy of the Huang family, Huang Baoshan, and the last time you dealt with Yu Xuan, I called the turtle fairy Hai Penglai to help, these are the three pillars." ”
"How powerful are they?" I asked tentatively, "The sad king I saw last time should be regarded as the pillar of your family's hall, right?" ”
"Well, it counts." Zheng Xiaoxian'er scratched her head: "It's really hard to say how hard these big brothers are." ”
"Brother Zheng, you are talking about the four pillars, who are the other two?" I asked curiously, "Have I seen it?" ”
"There's one you've seen, and there's one you haven't." Zheng Xiaoxian'er smiled: "The one who made you kowtow six times just now is one of them." ”
"What the fuck?" I was stunned: "Is it so powerful?" ”
"Nonsense." Zheng Xiaoxian'er smoked a cigarette and said: "Although there is a sad king in my family, the strength of that person is not weaker than the sad king at all."
In Zheng Xiaoxian'er's narration, I probably have an idea of the so-called six pillars.
Hu Tiansheng, Huang Baoshan, Hai Penglai, these are three.
The remaining three are the King of Sorrow I saw last time, the old man just now, and an old fairy from a reckless family.
The real name of the sad king is Chen Rusheng, it is said that he was a scholar before his death, and after his death, he became an immortal family, and he became famous in the three eastern provinces.
The old man who looked very rigid just now, what is its name, this is not even clear to Zheng Xiaoxian'er, anyway, they all call it the Ninth Master, and his strength is about the same as that of the King of Sorrow.
In the end, the old fairy of the Mang (python) family, named Mang Yuanqing, seemed to be on a "business trip", and he couldn't return to Qiqihar in a short time.
"Among these old immortals, the most powerful ones are Chen Rusheng and the Ninth Master, and the others are slightly weaker than them." Zheng Xiaoxian'er smiled and raised her eyebrows at me: "It's not me blowing with you, Xiao Yuan, let's win against the Dusheng Sect this time, if a few of us can't get them, I'll blow the whistle and call people, and I can still call hundreds of immortals." ”
"Hey, listening to you, it feels like you're kind of like the underworld." I'm happy.
"What's dark?"
Zheng Xiaoxian'er said, and the mobile phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and glanced at it, then answered it.
"Hello?"
"Are you sure?"
"Okay, follow them."
After saying this, Zheng Xiaoxian hung up the phone and patted me on the shoulder.
"Get ready to work."
