Shui Sheng sat in the middle of the courtyard, looking at the blue sky, his mind turning and falling into deep thought.
The village where Lingyun is located is called Lingxi Village, a remote village in the fief of a prince of the Heavenly Dream Empire.
It is said that when the aquatic was born, thunderclouds suddenly made up for the heavy rain in the sky, and the village of Lingxi had been dry for a year.
So he chose this name for him, clouds give birth to rain, accompanied by water, this is the blessed star of Lingxi Village.
It is true that aquatic beings are naturally intelligent, they can run around the streets at the age of more than a year, and they have big eyes that are clear and watery, and they are loved by everyone, and the people in the village are very fond of aquatic life from the elderly in their seventies, and down to the children who learn to speak.
Shui Sheng's mother was a young lady from a forester in the county, and his father was originally just a village farmer.
Later, I worshiped the master and learned the craftsmanship of the bricklayer for a few years, and when I went to work at the house with the master, I met the mother of the water, and the time of working was not short, half a year, but I didn't expect to come and go, and the two of them made a private agreement for life.
Later, the aquatic parents were found to be tried to stop them by the foresters, and the two finally decided to elope.
A year later, the aquatic mother came back with a big belly, and the family was helpless, although they still didn't look down on the aquatic father, but they could only accept it, and held a simple marriage, and the family of three settled down in Lingxi Village.
The life of the family is not bad because of the carpenter's craftsmanship, especially the handsome Shui Sheng, the grandfather saw his grandson, and the resentment of the past disappeared, and from time to time he also gave some food and clothing things, and the family lived more and more nourishingly.
Time flies, and the fifteen-year-old aquatic life has also changed greatly, with a tall and delicate face, and the original head horn has also untied a bundle of long hair, heroic and cool, Mo Shangsun is like jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world.
Shui Sheng is naturally intelligent, loves to read, and has the ability to never forget, so far there are no books and literature that can be found in ten miles and eight villages that he has not read.
He has read a lot of aquatic books, but his desire for the outside world has become heavier and heavier, a year or two ago he wanted to leave his hometown and go out to explore, he didn't care about what fame and fortune were to go to Beijing to catch the exam, but it was better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, this world was too narrow for him, if he took root here all his life, he didn't know what illness he would hold.
Shui Sheng doesn't always hold a book to read now, does he sit in the courtyard and look at the sky in a daze, sitting all day, his eyes are full of anticipation.
"Lin'er, look at who is coming" Shui Sheng's father's voice sounded from outside the courtyard.
"Father"
"Grandpa"
The person who came was Lin Tianmu, the aquatic grandfather, dressed in a brown silk robe, with a finger-long beard, and the hair on his temples was a little gray, but his eyes looked much sharper.
At that time, Lin Tianmu strongly opposed the aquatic parents being together, and even found someone to break the legs of the aquatic father, but at that time they had already eloped to other provinces, and Lin Tianmu, who had not seen his daughter for more than a year, was relieved, and then the estrangement between him and the aquatic father gradually disappeared because of the relationship between the aquatic family.
Until the end, it can be regarded as approving this son-in-law.
"Why did you come alone, if you have something, you can let me know, let's go and see you," Lin Lin hurriedly helped Lin Tianmu to sit down.
"It's a good thing, it's a good thing, I'm not at ease to let others come" Lin Tianmu swallowed his saliva, picked up the tea on the table and drank it all, if outsiders saw it, they would be surprised, how could the majestic forester be so impatient on weekdays.
"A good thing, a good thing?" Lin Lin asked as she refilled Lin Tianmu's teacup with some water.
"Do you know the immortals? the kind of immortals who can fly in the sky!"
"The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect on the North Styx Mountain recruits disciples, and our Lin family has a place."
"Immortals!" Shui Sheng listened on the sidelines, his heart was shocked, he had read a lot of books, some of the books described the stories of those spirits and demons, naturally also mentioned immortals, he had also been to Cheng Ze, but that was just a legend, but he didn't expect the immortals to be so airborne into his life.
"Lin'er, your grandfather once had no intention of helping that immortal, he promised to lead your grandfather into the immortal gate, but that immortal retreat was more than seventy years, and when your grandfather died, he gave this opportunity to our Lin family, and selected a young man for him to take away, I want to let Shui Sheng go, but you also know that your second mother, your younger brother~ Alas, so I came alone, you let Shui Sheng quietly go with me."
Lin Lin's mother died more than ten years ago, Lin Tianmu later married a wife, and gave birth to a son named Lin Chengze, Lin Tianmu is also considered to be an old man, and the husband and wife are extremely spoiled.
Lin Chengze is a few years older than Shui Sheng, he eats, drinks, prostitutes, gambles on weekdays, and is a stubborn child, so Lin Tianmu didn't want to give him the quota this time, so he thought of him as a grandson.
"Father, this..."
"Aquatic, do you want to go?" Lin Lin was a little excited, an immortal, that is an immortal, originally she was still worried about the reluctance of aquatic science expeditions, but now there is a greater opportunity in front of her, she doesn't know how her son will choose.
"Mother, I want to go" Shui Sheng didn't know the world of immortals very well, but he had a trace of yearning in his heart, and something seemed to be burning in his heart.
"The immortal will come to pick up people tomorrow morning, Shui Sheng, I will pick you up early tomorrow morning, I have to go first" After saying that, Lin Tianmu was about to get up and leave, Lin Lin and the others originally planned to leave him for more time, but Lin Tianmu was afraid of extraneous branches, so he had to go back to the Lin Mansion and wait to be at ease.
Sleepless all night, Shui Sheng fantasized about Xiangzi one after another immortals, his heart was extremely excited, for fifteen years, he had never looked forward to one thing like this, what the world of immortals was like, and he felt that this opportunity might change his life, and it was true.
Early in the morning, Shui Sheng got up early, standing outside the courtyard gate and looking into the distance, both Shui Sheng's parents also got up earlier than usual, although Shui Sheng was about to have the opportunity to step into the fairy gate, so the two of them were full of pride, but the reluctance of the wanderer to leave was also full of their hearts.
"Son, you have to behave well after you go, if our family really has an immortal, it will be glorious to the ancestors", the aquatic ancestors have been rooted in Lingxi Village for generations, not to mention immortals, even Xiucai has never appeared, I didn't expect my son to be so good.
"Don't say a few words, son, if you can't become an immortal, you will come back, let's study and take a test, it's also amazing," Lin Lin said with a slight choked up.
While speaking, the person sent by Lin Tianmu appeared in the sight of the Shui Sheng family with a sedan chair, and slowly stopped in front of the Shui Sheng's house.
"Miss, little boy" In front of the sedan chair is Lin Zhong, the housekeeper of the Lin family, Lin Lin has been in the Lin Mansion since he was a child, and it has been decades, he raised the curtain of the sedan chair and signaled Shui Sheng to go up.
Shui Sheng was about to step on the sedan chair with one foot, he suddenly turned around, knelt down towards Lin Ling and the two, kowtowed three heads heavily and said, "Daddy, my son is not filial"
This is the first time that the aquatic life has traveled far in the true sense, and even though he is reluctant to give up, he still can't help the yearning in his heart.
In less than an hour, the sedan chair slowly landed again, and when it came to Shuisheng, he gave birth to the sedan chair, looking at the big plaque above his head, "Lin Mansion" This is Lin Tianmu's house, and Shui Sheng has been here many times since he was a child.
"Yo, isn't this my eldest nephew, why do you have time to come to our Lin family" A young man was about twenty years old, with yellow and blue eyes, carrying a birdcage in his hand, and walked slowly with steps that he didn't recognize his six relatives.
Looking at Lin Chengze in front of him, Shui Sheng sighed a little, just such a living image of a loser, if this quota is given to him...
"Lin Chengze, I'm here to find my grandfather, why should you go." Shui Sheng has always had no good impression of this cheap uncle, not to mention that this guy still looks for trouble with the Shui Sheng family from time to time, especially the old man once said in public that he would train Shui Sheng to be the future successor of the Lin family, but Shui Sheng is unwilling to change his surname, so I don't know.
The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Lin Chengze's mother and son have regarded aquatic life as a thorn in their side since then, and the sense of crisis in their hearts is getting heavier and heavier when they look at the growing aquatic life.
The courtyard was bustling with people, not only the various branches of the Lin family, but also the famous squires in the vicinity.
The immortals came, Lin Tianmu specially summoned these people under the pretext that they could see the immortals in their lifetime, which was enough for them to brag for a few years, and Lin Tianmu also had his own vanity, if the Lin family could produce an immortal, the Lin family would definitely soar in the future.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Lin invites you to come today, and there is only one important thing to announce!"
"The forester is polite, if you have anything to say, just say it" It was a well-known squire who spoke.
"My Lin family is blessed by the ancestors, and I am fortunate to be blessed by the immortals, and I give our Lin family a place to cultivate immortals, and I would like to invite you to be a witness today" Lin Tianmu finished speaking in one breath, his voice was loud, and there were voices inside and outside the courtyard.
"Immortals, don't the foresters tease us?"
"The forester is serious when he says this," a slightly weak voice in the crowd remembered, and an old man living on crutches was helped out by two people.
"Elder Shen, I saw with my own eyes that day, the immortal sword flew and fell from the sky, I will not admit my mistake, you wait for a while, the immortal will come in a while"
Shen Lao's name is Shen Shuwen, he used to be a Beijing official, he has a wide range of knowledge, he resigned from his old age and returned to his hometown to spend his old age in peace, and he can be regarded as one of the best people in the surrounding area."
"The old man wants to take a look" Shen Wenwen had come into contact with some so-called cultivators when he was an official, with infinite strength and extraordinary force, but he had never seen the flying of the imperial sword that Lin Tianmu said, although he didn't believe it, he still had a trace of expectation.
"Why haven't the immortals come yet?"
"It's just that Mo is not a lie"
"Outside the forester, he can be regarded as a figure with a head and a face, so he won't openly tease us, just wait"
After waiting for a full hour, everyone also stood respectfully for an hour, and they couldn't help but be a little impatient, and some people whispered from time to time, and some even wanted to leave.
"Outside the forester, when will this immortal come, we..."
Before the man finished speaking, a cloudy wind swept through the sky, and a black spot in the hundred-foot-high clouds and mist broke through the wind, gradually magnifying and magnifying...
A cyan giant sword scattered a faint white light and stopped above everyone's heads, and there was a person standing on the sword, looking no more than twenty or thirty years old, a white-clothed man with clear eyes, looking at the people below, and said indifferently: "Lin Tianmu, which one is the choice of your Lin family?"
The voice was not loud, but it clearly echoed in everyone's ears, and this sentence shocked everyone present.
"This is really an immortal!"
"Come, Shui Sheng, come here," Lin Tianmu stretched out his hand and waved at Shui Sheng.
"Immortal, this is the ...... I chose."
"No, why give it to him," a female voice suddenly sounded.
It was a woman who spoke, dressed luxuriously, with a light body, coiled up hair and a lot of golden hairpins and hostas, powdered lips, this is Lin Tianmu's current wife, that is, Lin Chengze's mother, Le Ping.
She is only thirty-seven or eighteen years old now, plus she is well maintained on weekdays, she can be regarded as graceful, she is not a stupid person, she married Lin Tianmu at a young age, she also understood from what she said just now, this immortal came to the Lin family to take one, and let the Lin family choose it themselves, since this is the case, she naturally wants to let herself go.
"Shut up, I've made up my mind, this quota will be given to Shuisheng, and I will be an immortal who can do that virtue!"
"Master, you!" It was the first time for Le Ping to see Lin Tianmu angry, he was almost always pampered by himself on weekdays, and he had never been so angry.
"Lin Tianmu, who do you choose," the young man in the sky said impatiently.
"Immortal, this is my aquatic life, my grandson, our Lin family chose him"
"Immortal ~ good immortal" Shui Sheng was nervous, and he was also a little frightened at this time, and he was a little stumbling when he spoke.
"Alright then, you, come with me," the young man waved his hand, and the aquatic life was lifted up by a gust of wind and landed on the giant sword.
"This matter is over, your Lin family's grievances with my Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Sect have been settled, if your grandson Linggen can't do it, I don't guarantee that he can stay, and then he will be driven out of the mountain gate, don't look for me again."
"It's Nature"
The young man was about to turn around and leave, but suddenly saw Lin Chengze in the crowd, his pupils gathered.
"This is a natural spirit body, I didn't expect that there would be such a person with such a physique in this poor and remote place, bring him back to the Sword Sect, and the master may have given me the Condensing Divine Pill."
"Wait, come here, what's your name" The young man pointed to the void, and a streamer of light was falling on the top of Lin Chengze's head, and a black mist that ordinary people couldn't see was permeating Lin Chengze's head.
"Black?is it yin, is it a Taiyin spirit body or a ghost spirit body or something else?" the young man looked at the black mist on Lin Chengze's body thoughtfully.
"I, are you asking me" Lin Tianmu insisted on choosing the aquatic life before, Lin Chengze was envious and resentful in his heart, but the immortal was present, and he didn't dare to mess around, but he didn't expect that the immortal would ask his name alone now, which flattered him.
"Could it be that I, Lin Chengze, really have the life to cultivate immortals, haha" Lin Chengze was secretly refreshed in his heart.
"Back to the immortals, the little Lin Chengze"
"Would you like to come with us" The young man still looked indifferent, and his voice was not angry, as if what he said was unquestionable.
"I'm willing!" Lin Chengze was surprised and delighted, and nodded hurriedly.
"Then let's go" The young man waved his hand, and the same Lin Chengze also landed on the giant sword.
"Immortals, are you leaving, I specially prepared a banquet, do you want to..." Lin Tianmu said busily.
"No need, I have already opened the valley, and the food of the world is useless to me"
"Then these gifts are also invited to the immortals, my son and grandson also ask you to take care of one or two" Lin Tianmu called the subordinates, and the large and small gift boxes were placed on the ground, "I don't know what the immortals like, Lin Tianmu has raised a lot of ancient paintings and jade or medicinal materials and weapons in the past few days."
The young man's eyes were full of contempt, after all, what good things could be in this poor country.
He looked at it, it was mostly useless waste, but there were a few medicinal herbs that he didn't expect, a formed wild ginseng and the deer antler should be nearly a hundred years old, he swept it with his left hand, and those medicinal herbs disappeared out of thin air.
"This, everyone was shocked by the methods of the immortals again"
"It's worthy of an immortal, this method is really incredible," Shen Lao also said leisurely.
"Okay, I'm useless for other things, I'll take care of the two of them" With that, the spirit sword slowly flew up and gradually disappeared from people's sight.
"Dad, can we still see the aquatic life?" Lin Lin said with tears in her eyes.
"Child, this is an aquatic opportunity, parents have to support their children"
"I heard that immortals are immortal, and I'm afraid that when I see the aquatic life again, he won't recognize us."
"It's okay, it's okay" The aquatic father gently patted Lin Lin's back and wiped away her tears.
"Master, I didn't expect Cheng Ze to be favored by the immortals, you still don't listen to Cheng Ze if you choose him, or the eyes of the immortals are good" Le Ping can't smile now, her son is favored by the immortals, she is very proud of her mother, and her mother will be the mother of the immortals in the future.
"I didn't expect Cheng Ze to be favored by immortals, our Lin family can produce two immortals this time, this is really a glorious ancestor" Lin Tianmu didn't expect his second son to have such a good life, he didn't care, anyway, it was the Lin family.
"Have you heard, there are two immortals from the Lin family in Qinghai County?"
"What bullshit immortals, you also believe it"
"Don't believe it, my cousin's daughter-in-law's aunt's nephew's sister's father-in-law's friend was there that day, and I saw with my own eyes that the immortal flew from the sky."
"What does that have to do with the Lin family?"
"I don't know which life the Lin family has cultivated, the immortal took away the two people of the Lin family, and if he can be taken away by the immortal, then he will have to be an immortal in the future."
"Alas, why don't we have such a good life"
"That said, well, let's do a good job"
The news that the Lin family had an immortal spread far and wide, not only in Qinghai County, but also in several counties that were close to it, and the people who came to visit the Lin family every day could almost break the threshold.
"Haha, Glory Ancestor" In the past few days, not only Lin Tianmu but also Le Ping and the aquatic couple have been very busy these days, and Lin Tianmu couldn't stop smiling.
On the other hand, Shui Sheng and Lin Chengze flew for three days, and the two of them were not very comfortable at first, the flying sword was too fast, the cold wind blew on the face and it was cold and painful, and there were tears in their eyes.
