Chapter 261: Old Man Grows Stronger

Zhao Lin was slightly stunned, thinking that this Taoist priest would be able to call his name as soon as they met, and it was very likely that Huang Lu and the others had already revealed their appearance to him in advance, so he replied: "It is here, please ask the Taoist chief how to call him?" ”

The middle-aged Taoist priest waved his hand casually and said: "You're welcome, my surname is Xun, how old are you, just call me senior brother." ”

As he spoke, he led to the door, "Please take a break from the senior brother first, there are still people who have not arrived, and it is estimated that it will take another day or two to leave." ”

Zhao Lin nodded, "But it's up to Senior Brother to arrange." ”

While speaking, the two walked into the temple, although the Taoist temple looked dilapidated from the outside, the inside was clean and tidy, quiet and elegant.

There is an incense burner at the entrance, and there is a statue of a god in the main hall, perhaps because of the age, the face is a little blurred.

Passing through the main hall, I came to a row of blue bricks and gray tiles.

Senior Brother Xun pointed to the room and said: "The first three rooms and the last one are occupied, and the junior brother can choose one of the vacant rooms to live in, the cold house is simple, don't mind." ”

Zhao Lin thanked him: "Senior Brother Xun is polite. ”

At this time, a small head sticked out of the window of the first room and said in surprise: "There is a newcomer!" ”

The owner of the head was a round-faced young man, with two horns pierced on his head, and his face was childish, and he withdrew his body after shouting.

Then the person ran out of the house quickly, and when he came to Zhao Lin, he looked up and down curiously.

The doors of the second and third rooms also opened one after another, and two slightly older teenagers stepped out respectively.

Seeing these three half-grown children, Zhao Lin finally understood why Senior Brother Xun could recognize him at a glance.

All three of them were in their teens, the youngest of the round-faced boys, who looked only eleven or twelve years old, and the other two were only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Compared with them, no matter how old or physical, he can stand out from the crowd.

With a "squeak", the door to the last room also opened, and out came a young girl, her eyes were a little red and swollen, and she looked like she had just cried.

Senior Brother Xun smiled: "These people, like you, are all newly accepted disciples of the sect. In the words of the reader, it is called the same year, and you are so close and close. I'll go to the front and keep watch, lest anyone miss it. ”

After he finished speaking, he walked out, leaving Zhao Lin and the four young boys and girls staring at each other.

The round-faced young man didn't recognize his life, and raised his head and asked Zhao Lin: "Uncle, are you going to cultivate the Tao too?" ”

Uncle?

Hearing this unfamiliar title, Zhao Lin was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't laugh or cry.

The young man who came out of the second room just now had a white face and beautiful eyebrows, and he almost jumped up when he heard the words, and shouted: "Zhu Cong, you are so ignorant, how can there be a monk who is called uncle?" You should call me a senior brother! ”

The round-faced young man hurriedly changed his words: "Master...... Senior brother, what's your name? ”

Zhao Lin didn't care, but felt a little childlike, and said that because of his martial arts practice, he seemed to be in his early twenties, but his actual age was thirty-one years old.

Seriously calculated, it is not too much for a teenager to call himself an uncle.

He smiled and said, "My name is Zhao Lin, and like you, I also went to Chenghua Sect to cultivate. ”

The round-faced young man was curious: "Why are you so old?" Did the monks who stationed there never notice you? ”

People with spiritual roots can usually appear after the age of ten, and generally not more than eighteen years old at the latest, Zhao Lin heard Huang Zhuosong mention this matter, and naturally understood the meaning of the round-faced young man.

He shook his head slightly, "It's my spiritual root that is late, no wonder the monks are stationed." ”

"Then how many spiritual roots are you, and what attributes do you have?" The round-faced boy then asked.

Zhao Lin smiled slightly, but didn't answer, "You ask me about the spiritual root grade, you have to tell me your own first, right?" By the way, what's your name and where are you from? ”

"My name is Zhu Cong......"

"My name is He Shaoqun......"

Two teenagers rushed to report their home.

The round-faced young man's name is Zhu Cong, he is only twelve years old this year, he is a medium-grade spiritual root, and he has two attributes: water and wood.

He Shaoqun is three years older than Zhu Cong, and he is a lower-grade spiritual root, and his attributes are both gold and wood.

The young man who came out of the third room had a wooden expression, a little cringe, and only then did he speak with difficulty under Zhao Lin's gaze: "My name is Li Sancai, Xia Pin Linggen, Shui ...... Three genera of fire and earth. ”

The girl was the last to introduce herself, her surname was white, the word was a lotus, and she was a medium-grade spiritual root, which was a single genus of wind spiritual roots.

"Two mid-grade, two lower-grade...... It seems that what Huang Zhuosong and Lu Qing said is true, most of the monks' spiritual roots are among the upper, middle and lower grades. ”

The thought turned in his heart, and Zhao Lin's gaze swept over everyone, "Senior brother, I am a middle-grade spiritual root, but the spiritual root appeared too late, and it is not as good as all the young talents." ”

casually introduced the topic, and skipped the matter of the spiritual root attribute.

Several teenagers all cast sympathetic glances at Zhao Lin, although they didn't know how to cultivate, they also knew that no matter what they learned, the sooner the better.

Bai He comforted: "Senior brother is only a few years older than us, I heard the resident monk say that the cultivation is more important than persistence." As long as there is perseverance, it is nothing to be late. ”

He Shaoqun also said: "We are fortunate to be able to give birth to spiritual roots. ”

Zhao Lin laughed, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, senior brother, although I am old, I am old and strong, and I have the heart to move my white head!" ”

One sentence amused several people, and even Li Sancai, who had been expressionless, grinned.

Among the people present, except for Zhao Lin, it was the first time to go far away, and he unconsciously wanted to talk to people and find comfort.

Zhao Lin was familiar with the world, and soon enlivened the atmosphere, and everyone gradually became acquainted.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Lin suddenly remembered something and asked, "You are not very old, you went to the Xuanyuan Continent to cultivate, do your family know?" ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Cong was the first to reply, "My father and mother were reluctant to let me go, so they decided to go there with me." ”

Zhao Lin glanced into the room and asked, "What about them?" ”

Zhu Cong said: "The monk stationed there said that the family members and disciples took the boat separately, and they were picked up two days earlier. After speaking, he lowered his head and rubbed his eyes sadly.

"I only took my mother."

He Shaoqun hesitated for a moment before he said his matter.

He came from a large family, his father had a wife and three concubines, and his mother was only a maidservant, and the mother and son were not treated well at home.

So when he learned that he had spiritual roots and could cultivate, he decided to take his mother away from the family without hesitation, leaving only a letter without saying goodbye.

Bai He's situation is a little different, his father is a high-ranking official in Fucheng, and the two brothers are one of the owners of the martial arts hall and the other is a businessman on the rich side.

Although his parents agreed with him to cultivate immortals, he was reluctant to have a huge family business and was unwilling to go to the Xuanyuan Continent with her, so he could only come here alone.

Zhao Lin thought for a while and asked, "Then does your father and mother know about your immortal cultivation?" ”

Bai He nodded, and shook his head again, "The resident monk told the matter and the plan, and they didn't agree, so the Dao Master cast a spell to erase their memories in two hours. ”

And the spell of erasing the memory?

Zhao Lin was secretly surprised in his heart.
