was defended by Jin Lanzong day and night, and finally forced to squat in Chihu The head of the Zhang family, of course, is worthy.

Zhang Qing didn't know how he left the attic, and after coming out, the cold wind that blew made him shiver and wake up.

Qinglian was not sent out, which was very surprising, but Zhang Qing still gained a lot.

At least there is a golden lotus in the hands of the head of the family, and from the perspective of time, it must not be too long, otherwise this green lotus will not be so faceless.

"Anyway, it's smashed." Zhang Qing was a little distressed, because compared to Qinglian, what he hoped more was enough resources for him to practice.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the resources in his hands are at most cultivated to the peak of qi refining, and the foundation building has not yet been settled, let alone the cultivation of foundation building.

"Zhuji, I hope that official family knows each other."

When leaving the attic, Zhang Qing also received a task to go to the official house of Yangshui Lake on behalf of the family.

According to the head of the family, if the golden lotus of the official family did not die in the land of clouds, then nothing would have happened, and the official family would soar into the sky and become an immortal cultivation family under the four clans.

But unfortunately, the ancestor of the official family died, and there was no golden lotus, so the official family needed to give an explanation to the Zhang family.

"The family helped them block out a lot of covetous eyes, but they were backstabbing in the back, which needs an explanation."

This is Zhang Shenling's original words, and the head of the Zhang family, who has not yet thought about who to send, looked at Zhang Qing, and the explanation of the fallen official family belongs to him, which can be regarded as the foundation building resources prepared for him in advance.

The reason is that Zhang Qing solved the problem of Jinlan Sect for the family and brought back a green lotus.

"But this matter still has to be pondered, and it doesn't seem to be enough for me to go alone." Zhang Qing's eyes showed thought, and then he looked at the peers in the clan who were walking around.

……

The indifferent sound of the piano lingers in the Red Lake, where thousands of spirit fish swim leisurely, accompanied by the ignition of immortal incense, the entire island in the middle of the lake is shrouded in a layer of solemnity.

Today is the funeral of Zhang Qianguan, the elder of the Zhang family, who has not been able to break through the golden lotus for a few days, died in the land of Yunxia, and even the corpse capital could not be snatched back, so he could only set up a mound of clothes.

"Li—"

As the five ancestors of the five rooms shouted in unison, led by Zhang Shenling, followed by the Zhuji monks, the Qi cultivation disciples who had already been farther away respectfully saluted towards the front.

Each of them wore white coarse linen headbands on their heads, and looked at the ground in front of them expressionlessly, until the voices of the five ancestors sounded again.

"Bye-"

Zhang Shenling got up and came to the statue of the patriarch Zhang Qianguan, inserted a piece of immortal incense handed over by others, and then bent down three times to salute.

After doing this, Zhang Shenling walked towards the distance, and the foundation building monks behind him moved forward in turn.

As a new generation in the family with a low rank, by the time Zhang Qing arrived, a long time had passed, and after worshipping according to the rules, there were not many people behind him.

Like everyone before him, he left along the trail and waited quietly.

Soon after, the sound of mourning could be heard in the distance, and the mound of the clan elder would also be carried to the green mountains on the side of the Chihu Lake for burial.

The whole process is followed only by relatives in the family family, which is the custom of the family.

The reason is that the ancestor who opened the family once said that life and death are the best blessings.

The dead will quietly watch the prosperity of the family on the green hills, and the living have a future for the living, life and death will not be seen, and it is better to never see each other.

This represents the ancestor's grand wish to be above the nine heavens when he was dying, because only by ascending to immortality can he have an eternal lifespan.

If it is not necessary, no one will even go to the mountain to offer incense in the future, and even if it is a worship, it is a worship on the island in the middle of the lake towards the green mountains that can be seen at a glance.

Of course, this doesn't mean that you can't go, for example, Zhang Qing, when he ascended the heights in the first two years, he would also see the cemeteries of some ancestors in the clan, and he would stop to worship for a while when he passed by.

The clan elder's clothed mound was sent to Qingshan from the top of the Chihu Lake by the Wanyu pontoon, and on the island in the middle of the lake, the voice of an ancestor also sounded again.

"For disciples over the age of ten in the clan, the vegetarian feast lasts for ten days, the men take turns chanting and praying, and the female dependents clean the courtyard building."

"Clan Order!" In the island in the middle of the lake, countless responses from the Zhang family rang out.

This is also one of the customs, but the so-called chanting is actually a group of people chanting the Tao mantra carefully in the presence of their ancestors and ancestors to help stabilize the heart of the Tao.

And the so-called cleaning of the female dependents is not just cleaning, according to the clan, this is to get rid of the heavy and dead air in the clan, so that the family can always move forward.

In the process, they will witness the family's past, which is a glorious history.

This step is actually very important for the Zhang family, because not everyone can have a firm Dao heart, and juniors like Zhang Junxiu and Zhang Qing are already a minority.

More junior disciples will be confused by the fall of a golden lotus, and even the golden lotus will die so easily, what should they do?

Not everyone can become a strong person, so the family can't affect the cultivation will of other people just because of the fall of a strong person, even if it affects one person, it is something that the dead person does not want

Therefore, this step is to eliminate the influence of the dead on the cultivation of the living, and it can also be regarded as an extension of the meaning of the future generations in that ancestor said that life and death are not seen.

That's why there wasn't a single child under the age of 10 at the funeral, they were all locked up.

It wasn't until an elder went to pick them up that these innocent and lively children were released from the cage.

"Second uncle!"

From afar, Zhang Qing saw Qingmeng's crying appearance and rushed to him, and then hugged himself and cried continuously, clutching his clothes in his hands.

"Okay, didn't I come back alive? Crying like this, those who don't know think I'm dead. ”

The crying stopped abruptly at this moment, the little girl raised her head and her mouth was about to touch her nose, but she forcibly held back the tears that swirled in her eyes.

"Let's go, go home."

One big and one small held hands and walked away, only the voice of teaching came.

"There is a clan motto in the clan, life and death are not seen, do you know what this means?"

"I don't know."

"That is, if a person is dead, he will not be able to see his living relatives, which will imply two misfortunes, after all, only the dead can meet the dead."

The fall of an old man of the Golden Lotus Clan, it is obviously impossible to say that it has no impact on Zhang Qing's heart.

"So, you have to practice hard and become more powerful than everyone else, so you don't have to die."

"That way, you can see the second uncle often."

"Then the second uncle is also going to become very powerful, very powerful."

"Okay, pull the hook."
