Chapter 428: Son-in-law's identity

After the departure of Heihu Laosuo, Lan Huaying and Li Shuidao were like glue, and their love was deep. Li Shuidao stroked Lan Huaying's hair and asked softly, "Ying'er, I have something I want to discuss with you." ”

Lan Huaying raised her head, her eyes were full of tenderness: "Lang Jun, what else can't be said between you and me?" ”

Li Shuidao pondered for a moment: "I heard that my father-in-law Lan Zhiyuan has been promoted to the third rank, I wonder if I will be lucky enough to see it?" ”

Lan Huaying sighed lightly: "Father has just read the Five Poisons Holy Scripture, and he is in retreat at the moment. ”

Li Shuidao frowned, and then held Lan Huaying's hand tightly: "Ying'er, I have something to ask for." ”

Lan Huaying's beautiful eyes flowed: "You and I husband and wife, why do you need to be so polite?" ”

Li Shuidao looked at her affectionately: "I want to read the Five Poisons Holy Scripture, I wonder if it can help me?" ”

Lan Huaying's face changed slightly, revealing a look of embarrassment. Seeing this, Li Shuidao hurriedly asked, "But is there any inconvenience?" ”

Lan Huaying hesitated for a moment: "It's not inconvenient, it's just that although I am a disciple of the lineage, my cultivation is still shallow, and I don't know much about the secrets of high-level cultivators." ”

Li Shuidao understood in his heart, and said softly: "Because of this, I need to ask my father-in-law for help, I don't know if it's possible?" ”

Lan Huaying nodded slightly, and said with a serious face: "I will try my best to fight for it." ”

A few days later.

The ancestral hall of the Lan family.

A solemn and sacred sacrificial ceremony is underway.

In the ancestral hall, the cigarette smoke is everywhere and the atmosphere is solemn. The elder stood in the center of the altar, holding a staff and reciting an ancient blessing. As he chanted, the monks bowed their heads and prayed for the protection of their ancestors.

Subsequently, the elder announced in a loud voice, "Today, we have welcomed the Lan family's newly promoted third-order cultivator......

As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at Li Shuidao, who was dressed in a white dress, and their eyes showed envy and admiration. Lan Huaying held his hand tightly, her eyes full of pride.

Immediately afterward, the elder led Li Shuidao to the altar. Here, there is a brazier with a roaring flame, and a copper basin filled with clean water.

"You have advanced to the third order and become the pride of my Lan family." The elder said solemnly, "Now, please step over the brazier to symbolize that you have great power; Please accept the baptism of pure water, wash away the dust of the past, and welcome a new future. ”

Li Shuidao followed the instructions of the elders and completed the ceremony step by step. He stepped over the brazier, took the clean water from the elders, and gently washed his face and hands.

After completing the ceremony, the elder took out a sword from under the altar and handed it to Li Shuidao.

"This is the sword of our Lan family's inheritance, called 'Chixia Slashing Shadow'." The elder said, "Now, it's yours. ”

Li Shuidao took the sword and immediately felt a strong aura rushing towards him. This sword is exquisitely shaped, with a slender blade and blood-colored lines that seem to flow with mysterious power. He gripped the hilt of his sword, feeling an indescribable understanding with it.

"This sword needs to be refined for a while before you can truly grasp its power." The elder continued, "Before that, you need to cultivate well and constantly increase your strength. Only when you are truly one with this sword can you bring out its maximum power. ”

Li Shuidao was also happy, this thing is a real magic weapon, and the Lan family is really magnanimous.

At this point, the ceremony is not over, and the next step is to register, record, register, and issue identity jade plates.

It is worthy of the Lan family who is in charge of the Five Poisons Gate Auditorium.

The red tape is pretty solid.

"Those who enter this roster are all elites of the Lan family, shouldering the glory of the family and seeking eternal prosperity." The elder of the Lan family held the jade book in his hand and shouted loudly.

Ring the bell to record the name and enter the jade book.

After a series of complicated ceremonies, Li Shuidao obtained an identity jade plaque, which was impressively engraved with the words "Blue Water Dao", and for a time there were mixed tastes.

His gaze swept over the jade book, according to the thickness of the jade book, the size of the names on it, there were not many people recorded in this jade book, at most twenty or thirty people.

The Lan family should not have such a small number of monks above the third order, it is difficult to make it a roster that only records the son-in-law.

Li Shuidao had a faint guess in his heart, but there was no way to confirm it further.

After the ceremony, wait for half a month......

Li Shuidao finally caught a glimpse of his father-in-law, Lan Zhiyuan, in the morning mist of the valley.

"Father-in-law, you're out of the customs." Li Shuidao greeted in a low voice.

Lan Zhiyuan nodded slightly, his face as calm as water. "Shuidao, if you want to read the Five Poisons Holy Scripture, the old man will naturally fully support it."

"It's just ......" he paused slightly, as if weighing the next words, "It's just that the sect has the rules of the sect, and if you want to read the Five Poisons Holy Codex, you need to apply to the Patriarch Hall and pay 500,000 meritorious deeds to read it." ”

Li Shuidao frowned and frowned at 500,000 meritorious deeds, if they were exchanged for spirit stones, it would only be more than 40,000 pieces, but unfortunately the meritorious deeds could be exchanged for spirit stones, but there was no way to exchange spirit stones for success medals.

"Father-in-law, I'm ...... I really don't have so many merits, even the Li family doesn't have so many merits. He replied, slightly embarrassed.

Lan Zhiyuan looked at him with deep eyes, "Shui Dao, since you have joined my Lan family, you are a member of my Lan family, and the merits of the Li family can no longer be transferred to you, and the Lan family also has its own rules, and merits cannot be given to each other." His tone was gentle, but with unmistakable firmness.

Li Shuidao frowned slightly, although he was reluctant, he could only follow the rules.

He pondered for a moment and asked tentatively, "Then is there any other way to get merit quickly?" ”

"Naturally, it is to complete the task of the sect." Lan Zhiyuan replied without thinking.

The next day, Li Shuidao went to the Zongmen Mission Hall, and now he received a task and completed it on the spot.

Sect Fourth-Order Mission: Find Pangu Su.

Li Shuidao happened to have one in his hand, and at this time he had already advanced to the Naxu Realm, and he no longer needed this thing, but fortunately he exchanged it for a successful medal.

The task was completed, and the sect gave Li Shuidao a reward of 800,000 meritorious services.

With 800,000 meritorious deeds, Li Shuidao went to the ancestral hall. The elder of the Patriarch Hall glanced at him and said in an arrogant tone, "The monks of the four major families are only qualified to read the Five Poisons Sacred Book when they have cultivated to the third order. ”

Li Shuidao took out his identity jade plate without being humble or arrogant, and the words "Blue Water Road" were clearly written on it.

The elder took the jade plaque and looked at it carefully, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of mockery, and then quickly disappeared.

"I'm qualified to read the Five Poisons Sacred Scripture, right?" Li Shuidao asked bluntly.

"It stands to reason that you can." The elder spoke in a slow voice, "But you have to wait. ”

"Why?" Li Shuidao asked puzzled.

"Because there are so many people watching, you have to wait." There was a hint of impatience in the Elder's tone.

"When will that be?" Li Shuidao frowned and asked.

"There is no definite number." The elder shook his head and said.
