Although there is no need for a grand acceptance ceremony.

But after all, taking in apprentices is also a big deal.

Under the witness of Yun Haitang and a few others, a simple internal apprenticeship ceremony was held in Xiaozhufeng, and Yun Lingshan carried out three bows and nine knocks in accordance with the process.

Tea was served.

Paid tribute to the teacher.

After the ceremony, when only Yun Lingshan was left, Chen Ping gave her the jade ball he got from Su Lengyuan, which was a gift for apprenticeship.

"Thank you, Master." Yun Lingshan carefully took the jade ball.

The greatest value of this jade ball is to play a role in the early and middle stages of foundation building, which is just right for Yun Lingshan.

After entering the foundation building for decades, Yun Lingshan is now a monk in the middle stage of foundation building.

Chen Ping introduced her to the value and use of the jade ball, and instructed:

"This jade ball is not coming from the right way, you can use it secretly, and you must not show it to others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

This is just a reminder to be on the safe side.

In fact, in order to convince Jin Dan's father-in-law that his rapid progress in cultivation was due to talent, not from external forces, Su Lengyuan did not show the jade ball from beginning to end.

After Su Lengyuan's death, basically no one knew the origin of this jade ball.

"Ling Shan understands."

At this moment, Tianyan City is spring, and there is a fragrance of birds and flowers everywhere.

When Chen Ping and Yun Lingshan arrived, it was just as Tianyan City was holding a trading conference, and after a while, there would be a traditional program 'Jindan Lecture' once a few years, and the city was overcrowded and bustling.

The two ran to several inns before finding a vacant room to live in.

After settling down, Yun Lingshan began to go to the city to contact some trading caravans that had dealings with the Yun family.

She needs to investigate the situation in Tianyan City as soon as possible and choose a suitable location for the shop.

Chen Ping went out alone and went to Lin Changshou and Guo Zizhao's residence.

After all these years, I don't know if they are still alive?

Or maybe you have changed your address?

When he arrived, he saw a young monk couple sitting in the courtyard of Guo Zizhao's original house, obviously not Guo Zizhao and his Taoist couple.

In the courtyard of Lin Changshou's house, there was a young monk practicing a set of swordsmanship.

In the process of turning around a few times, Chen Ping caught a glimpse of the young man's face contouring somewhat like Lin Changshou, and couldn't help but stop and watch for a moment.

The young man was aware of Chen Ping's existence, stopped to practice his sword, and said:

"Dare to ask Daoyou, is there something?"

The behavior is polite, but the body language shows a sense of vigilance at the same time.

But in the next second, he sensed Chen Ping's extraordinary momentum, and hurriedly saluted again:

"It turned out to be a senior in the foundation building, and it was really offensive to forgive the younger generation. Junior Lin Chang'an, I don't know that the seniors are coming, but there is something important to find the juniors? ”

Lin Chang'an?

Chen Ping smiled:

"Are you Lin Changshou's son?"

"My father is Lin Changshou. Dare to ask the seniors if they are looking for their father? Lin Xueping said respectfully, he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for a great monk like Chen Ping to suddenly come to the door, and he always maintained respect and vigilance.

Before Chen Ping could answer, he heard a vicissitudes of life from inside the house:

"Chang'an, are you a guest?"

Then a gray-haired old man walked out slowly.

The old man's body is already a little rickety, his face is full of traces left by the years, and the whole person gives people a feeling of dying, but he is dressed very decently and neatly.

When the old man saw Chen Ping, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes widened.

"Lin Daoyou, long time no see." Chen Ping smiled faintly.

This person is Lin Changshou.

Lin Changshou walked over excitedly:

"Brother Chen? Quick, come in. Chang'an, go and call your mother back, just say that Brother Chen has arrived. ”

"Yes, Dad." Lin Changan saw his father's excited look, and probably knew that this person was a friend of his father's before, so he immediately ran out after agreeing.

After decades, when the two met again, they inevitably exchanged pleasantries.

Chen Ping learned from Lin Changshou that Guo Zizhao had returned.

But not a dead one.

but lived to the end of his life.

That's right, too.

Eighty years have passed since I left Lianyun City. When they were in Lianyun City, Lin Changshou and Guo Zizhao were slightly older than Chen Ping.

In this way, they all lived for more than a hundred years.

The longevity of the Qi refining period is only about a hundred years old. Chen Ping practiced immortal exercises, and Shou Yuan, who practiced the ninth layer of qi, was only 131 years old.

Guo Zizhao and Lin Changshou are not immortal.

After Guo Zizhao's death, his Taoist companions also returned to the Tao a few years later.

The two left no offspring.

"Guo Daoyou has lived for more than a hundred years, he has no regrets, he left very peacefully, and it was the aftermath that I took care of him."

"I've lived a few more years, I'm called longevity." Lin Changshou smiled teasingly.

He looked at Chen Ping and sighed a little.

A few people were about the same cultivation at the beginning, and they came out of Lianyun City, and after decades, Chen Ping was getting younger and younger, and he himself was already on the verge of death, and Guo Daoyou was even more turned into loess.

Chen Ping looked at his old friend.

The cultivation of the ninth layer of Qi training.

But there is no sense of 'small feeling' on the body.

Small perceptions are the same as big perceptions, relying on the monks' own Taoist perceptions, others can't help much, and even resources can't play a big role.

If it is true that resources can solve all problems, those big sects and big families may be like dogs and gold pills all over the place.

Today's Lin Changshou and old state are fully revealed.

During the Qi refining period, there is no rejuvenation technique, and you will experience the same changes in your appearance and appearance as mortals throughout your life cycle from birth to death.

A simple Zhuyan Pill is not enough to hide the feeling of old age.

Talking about this topic was a little sad, so Chen Ping shifted a direction:

"Didn't you see a daughter last time? Why didn't you see you today? ”

Talking about his children, Lin Changshou smiled with satisfaction:

"That girl is better than her father"

When her daughter was a teenager, she successfully passed the outer disciple assessment of a small sect and became an outer disciple of that sect.

Realized the dream that Lin Changshou failed to realize.

Lin Changan did not go to the sect, he has been staying by his father's side, and now he is in his thirties.

While the two were chatting, Lin Changan and her mother hurried back together.

Lin Changshou's Taoist companion is younger than Lin Changshou, so he doesn't look as old as Lin Changshou.

Lin Changan was carrying a large piece of newly purchased second-order demon beast meat in his hand.

"On the way, I saw someone selling second-order demon beast meat, which is really rare, so I bought some and came back, Senior Chen, father, mother, you talk slowly, I'll go for dinner." Lin Changan hurriedly went to the dining room.

“.”

Chen Ping did not refuse, and stayed to have dinner together.

During this period, Lin Changshou talked about Chen Ping's purpose of coming to Tianyan City this time, and Chen Ping said bluntly:

"I came here this time to open a shop in Tianyan City, as a window for Yunfu's foreign trade."

In the process of chatting just now, Chen Ping knew that Lin Changan was currently a casual cultivator, and he would take on all kinds of tasks, and there was no fixed occupation.

And in the past period of communication, I found that Lin Changan inherited his father's style of dealing with the world, which is down-to-earth and steady, not floating, and not oily.

It is a quality that Chen Ping admires.

After a pause, he said:

"Also coming with me this time to build a new shop is Yun Lingshan, Lin Daoyou has seen before. But she also won't stay in Tianyan City for long, and will go back when the shop is on the right track. What do you think? Is Lam Yin's nephew interested in taking up the position of acting as the shopkeeper? ”

Chen Ping is talking about 'acting as the shopkeeper'.

And not the shopkeeper.

This shop in Tianyan City is very important, so it also needs to look at Lin Changan's follow-up ability. If the ability can keep up, he is naturally more willing to let Lin Changan officially take over this position.

As soon as these words came out, the three people on the other side were stunned.

Lin Changshou was the first to react and put down the dishes and chopsticks excitedly:

"Brother Chen, look at what you said, to be able to hand over such an important position to the dog, it is to look up to him. What could he be willing or unwilling to do? Yes, of course. ”

turned his head and slapped Lin Changan on the head again:

"You kid, don't you thank you Senior Chen."

"The junior Chang'an thanked the senior Chen." Lin Changan hurriedly said.

Mrs. Lin also thanked her again and again.

Because of this, the three of them were a little excited, and even the action of eating slowed down, and they did their best to understand the opening of the shop.

It is to introduce Lin Changan's advantages, and he has repeatedly stated that he will do his best to do this well.

Especially Lin Changan himself, when he knew that Chen Ping was not building a foundation, but Jin Dan, he was even more excited.

When he heard that Yun Lingshan would also go back soon, Lin Changshou hesitated for a moment and said:

"Big brother, the importance of this shop is not trivial, and the dog will naturally be meticulous in doing his duty. It's just that I don't hide it from my eldest brother, the dog is only practicing the cultivation of the fifth layer of qi now. The eldest brother and the Yun seniors are far away in the Lingxiao Sect, this."

Chen Ping knew what he was worried about.

It's nothing more than that the cultivation is too low to suppress the field.

To put it bluntly, you can't control any monk who comes to make trouble.

What's more, Tianyan City is a big immortal cultivation city, with all kinds of big forces entrenched, and the interests are complicated.

Chen Ping has thought about this question for a long time:

"It's okay, Lin Xian's nephew is just in charge of the business. I am free to arrange these questions. ”

It's not talking, it's that he's thinking about it.

If you can't even solve this most basic problem, what kind of shop will you open?

“.”

Chen Ping returned to the inn, and when he saw that Yun Lingshan had not returned, he took out a booklet and began to write.

This booklet is a story written by three new maids on Xiaozhufeng, and the story was told to them by Chen Ping.

The name of the story is "Breaking the Sky".

The story is almost not finished, so I can continue to write it myself.

……

Three days later.

Yun Lingshan finally got the matter of the shop.

The shop was chosen according to Chen Ping's request, not on the busiest street, but in the middle of a relatively inconspicuous street.

The location is adjacent to Central Street, and next to the shop is a large refinery.

Moreover, the magic weapons in this refining workshop are not low-end, there are many second-order, and even third-order, which are mainly customized. This means that the background of the store is not simple.

The area around such a store is not easy to be robbed.

But the location is not too conspicuous and not public.

The talisman shop that Chen Ping wanted to open was not for bulk sales, but mainly for supplying caravans with fixed cooperation.

So there is no need for a location that is too prosperous.

"Master, what do you think of this house?" Yun Lingshan asked Chen Ping to make a decision.

Chen Ping approvingly:

"It's good. The front bunk is not too big, and the backyard is relatively wide, just enough to be set up as a coffee break room for receiving VIPs. What's behind this bedroom? ”

"This shop used to be an elixir shop, and inside it was an alchemy secret room. The defensive nature of the secret room is very good, and we only need to arrange a few defensive formations, and we can use it immediately... Yun Lingshan introduced.

Chen Ping looked at it and felt very satisfied.

Next, Yun Lingshan hired laborers to start officially repairing the shop.

Lin Changan also officially joined the supervision team.

Five days later, the entire book of "Breaking the Sky" was completed, and Chen Ping took Yun Lingshan to Tianyan Sect.

Originally, he just went alone. But Yun Lingshan hadn't seen Yu Lingchun for decades and wanted to take a look.

The relationship between the two was very good before.

"Master, why did you ask Ling Shan to bring a door plaque?" As Chen Ping flew on the way, Yun Lingshan was puzzled.

"Go and ask for peace." Chen Ping grinned.

The two of them soon arrived at the foot of Tianyan Sect Mountain, and after landing on the ground, they saw that the disciple who guarded the sect was no longer the foundation building disciple they met when they came the first two times, and they were slightly disappointed.

He felt that his sense of loss was probably caused by not seeing his old friend, and there was no other possibility.

"I need to go to the ninth peak in the next place, and I ask Xiaoyou to help lead the way." Chen Ping showed the token.

This token of his itself has the right to go straight into the formation and fly directly into the ninth peak.

But when you're a newcomer, it's best to follow the process.

"It turned out to be Senior Chen, please here." When the gatekeeper saw the word "Xi" engraved on Chen Ping's token, he immediately recognized that this was the token of the registered disciple of the Xiyue Fairy, and hurriedly led the way.

On the way into the mountain, Chen Ping did not use the method of flying, but deliberately walked, so as to familiarize himself with the topography of Tianyan Sect.

At the same time, let the disciples of the gate introduce the situation of the Tianyan Sect on their behalf.

He had been to Tianyan Sect twice, but he only went to the door and did not enter, and his understanding of Tianyan Sect was limited to what he had heard.

I only know that Tianyan Sect is the largest sect in the Western Wilderness.

There are only two infant monks in the Western Wilderness.

Other than that, not much is known.

At this moment, when I heard the introduction of the disciples guarding the door, I knew that in addition to the two Yuan Infants, there were more than 30 Jindan monks in the Tianyan Sect.

The number is terrifying.

You must know that the few sects around the Qingyun Domain are only one or two golden pills at most. Some sects that are more remote to the south and west, and there is not even a single Jindan monk, so Zhuji can be the head.

There are more than a dozen independent peaks of the Tianyan Sect.

The important halls are also basically controlled by Jindan.

“…… Senior Bian of the Seventh Peak is a master of alchemy, and his temperament is also the most eccentric, Senior Chen has just arrived, so he must not rush to approach the Seventh Peak. …… The Lotus True Man of the Thirteenth Peak likes to meditate the most, and the younger generation has never seen a senior who is more capable of penance than the Lotus True Man, and the younger generation has only seen the Lotus True Person once in Tianyan Sect for so many years. …… The Great Elder of Ximen is the most powerful sword cultivator in the Tianyan Sect, and he once repelled two Jindan monks who came to challenge him with one ancient sword and one sword, and his reputation is far and wide. …… Yuquan Zhenren is a master of refining, and all kinds of magic weapons emerge in an endless stream during the battle, once Yuquan Zhenren took me and waited for these disciples to go to the secret realm to practice, during which he encountered a very powerful third-order demon beast, and that time really let me wait for the younger elders to see. ……。 ”

The disciple who led the way opened the conversation box and talked endlessly about the humanistic environment of Tianyan Sect for Chen Ping.

Chen Ping is so happy that he mainly listens.

When you encounter something unclear, you will also interject.

As we approached the ninth peak, the conversation shifted to the ninth peak:

“…… The seniors may not know that Xiyue Immortal Venerable is very strict in selecting named disciples, and ordinary monks can't get into her eyes at all. There was once a Jindan monk who wanted to worship Xiyue Immortal Venerable as a teacher, in order to impress Xiyue Immortal Venerable, that Jindan senior knelt at the foot of the Ninth Peak Mountain for three whole months, and he was stunned that he didn't even see Xiyue Immortal Venerable's face, tsk. … These disciples didn't even dare to approach the Ninth Peak Gate without permission. ”

The disciple who led the way was amazed.

There was a serious fear of Xiyue in his tone.

Chen Ping thought about it and felt that it was necessary to bring back a little bit for Xiyue's image:

"Not necessarily. This is an isolated case, and it should not be taken seriously. She is actually very easy-going, and when I saw her for the second time, I was accepted by her as a registered disciple. ”

The disciple who led the way was stagnant.

Why does this sound like I want to hit someone so much?

Senior, you're an example.

It's really more human than human, and it's infuriating.

The corners of the disciple's mouth trembled, and he put away his depressed mood and said:

"Senior Chen is a person who has a master-apprentice relationship with Xiyue Immortal Venerable, and others can't ask for it."

Chen Ping actually didn't quite understand.

After a few contacts, Xiyue is not the kind of person who is very difficult to communicate.

Ay.

Is.

Xiyue has something to be afraid of.

It's obviously a sister next door.
