Chapter 403: The Compound in the Ancient City
Rest for the night.
The next morning, we crossed the remnants of the sea of fire and came to the fairyland farther ahead.
On the deck of the stone bridge, there is indeed a yin and yang fish pattern, which is exactly the same as the pattern on the mountain wall outside, surrounded by gossip patterns.
At noon, the sun shines directly on the yin and yang fish.
Immediately, the yin-yang fish began to spin violently.
We then became dizzy.
I held Zhang Li in my left hand, Shen Yun in my right hand, and shouted loudly: "Don't be thrown down, otherwise you will have to wait one more day!" ”
Actually, I don't need to remind you, everyone is also mentally prepared, after all, this is how they were when they came in before.
After a long time, the dizziness finally faded.
When we looked closely, we were back outside.
Everyone didn't dare to delay, take a short rest, and hurry down the mountain.
I simply got some food to eat, and then the various sects left one after another......
Originally, I planned to go back to Longhu Mountain with Zhang Li and live with her for a while.
But now that I have the Liuyunmen thing, I can only return to the Liuyunmen first.
Although I have become the master of the door, the immortal slashing flying knife that Shen Gongbao said has not yet been found!
I need to get back to Liuyunmen as soon as possible and get familiar with everything.
Liuyunmen is located in Shanbei City, in the northwest direction of the green vine, and the distance is only three or four hundred kilometers.
Along the way, there were planes and high-speed trains, and three days later, in the evening, I finally came to Shanbei City.
There is an ancient city on the outskirts of Shanbei City.
There is a compound in the ancient city.
This compound is where the headquarters of Liuyunmen is located.
At this time, all the disciples of Liuyun Sect had received the news and were gathering together, waiting to meet the new sect master.
I thought that since it is a serious sect of cultivating immortals, even if it is declining now, at least there must be thousands of disciples, so it can't be like the stars holding the moon and the pomp and circumstance.
But after entering the compound, I was dumbfounded.
There are a bunch of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the courtyard!
As soon as I asked Shen Yun, I found out that this time Liuyunmen dispatched all the elites, and wanted to do a great job in the ancient forbidden land!
When they went, they were a group of more than 20 people, ready to try.
But now, only the eldest disciple and the second disciple are left to follow.
The rest of the disciples all hung up.
Of course, the door owner also hangs!
In front of them, these old, weak, sick and disabled people can only do some odd jobs.
The manpower that can be used in the entire Liuyun Sect is only the eldest disciple and the second disciple.
There is also Shen Yun, which should also be usable!
"Ahem......"
Seeing that everyone was looking at me expectantly, I could only say some high-sounding beautiful words, and said: "Although our Liuyunmen has suffered heavy losses this time, the future is still beautiful and promising!" After all, we have thousands of years of glorious tradition and brilliant history, and I believe that with the joint efforts of everyone, we will be able to revive the glory of Liuyunmen! ”
After saying that, I felt weak myself.
Everyone also stared at each other with wide eyes, as if listening to a book from heaven.
It wasn't until Shen Yun took the lead in applauding that there was sparse applause below.
"Door Master!"
At this time, the eldest disciple said, "The old master has just passed away, should we do it for his old man?" ”
The second disciple said: "Senior brother is right! Although our Liuyunmen is scarce, the number of courtesies that should be there must be must be no less! ”
I looked at Shen Yun with a sad face, in order to gain her trust, this funeral must be held, so I said: "Of course the funeral of the old master must be held, and it must be specially organized!" ”
After speaking, I looked at the eldest disciple and the second disciple again, and said, "I don't know much about the human relations of Liuyun Gate, so the specific affairs will be left to the two of you!" ”
"Thank you, Master!"
The two looked at each other as if they were very happy.
The funeral was scheduled for two days later.
The eldest disciple is mainly responsible for reporting the funeral, that is, informing the relatives and friends of Liuyunmen, the time and place of the funeral, etc.
The second disciple is mainly responsible for the construction of the mourning hall and the banquet, how big the pomp and circumstance, how many tables are placed, and he is clearer than me.
That night, the mourning hall was erected.
The old master's body was nowhere to be found, only a skull remained.
Inside the coffin was the only piece of his skull that remained, as well as a set of clothes he usually wore.
Shen Yun was alone, dressed in linen and filial piety, kneeling in the mourning hall, looking miserable and miserable.
Although she and the old master have been married for many years, they do not have a son and a half daughter.
I don't know whose problem it is.
A filial piety, a pretty body.
Shen Yun knelt there with a sad expression, but it added to her beauty, which made people feel excited.
I didn't dare to look at it more.
This is disrespectful to the old master.
So I left the compound and went to wander around the ancient city.
Although this ancient city is not officially rated as a scenic spot, there are still many tourists who come in for sightseeing.
In fact, there is nothing to visit in the ancient city of scenic spots, and most of them are the same kind of shops.
The ancient city here has not been overdeveloped, but closer to the original ecology.
Walked around for almost an hour.
When I went back, there was a layer of aroma wafting in the compound, and everyone was cooking in full swing, and the food was so fragrant!
"Door Master!"
Seeing me, the second disciple hurriedly greeted me and said, "Madame has been refusing to eat, you go and persuade her!" ”
"Good!"
I came to the mourning hall with my food and said, "Madam, let's eat something!" ”
"I'm not hungry!"
Shen Yun knelt there and shook his head.
I said, "Man is iron, rice is steel, and this funeral has not yet begun, so how can you do it without eating!" ”
As I spoke, I brought the dishes and chopsticks to her and said, "Madam, if you don't eat again, I'll feed you!" ”
Hearing me say this, Shen Yun's face turned red, and she had to take the dishes and chopsticks.
But after two bites, she didn't move.
I said, "It's okay ma'am, you eat slowly, I'll watch you finish eating!" ”
Shen Yun looked helpless and had to continue.
I rubbed the jade wrench on my thumb, pretending to ask casually, and said, "Madam, what are some things that have been handed down in our Liuyunmen?" ”
Shen Yun said: "It's all in this compound, and there's nothing left." ”
I've looked around the compound before, and I haven't found any items like the Immortal Slashing Flying Knife, or anything like the Immortal Slashing Flying Knife.
Maybe now Shen Yun is still wary of me, and it is understandable not to tell me.
Of course, it is also possible that she is in a low mood right now, and it is normal that she can't remember.
Anyway, I have a lot of time, so I'll explore it slowly in the future.
After Shen Yun finished eating, I took the dishes and chopsticks and went out.
At this time, the eldest disciple also returned from mourning.
He started too late today, only ran seven houses, and he had to continue early tomorrow morning.
……
Two days have passed.
On the day of the funeral, there were only seven or eight tables in total, and it seems that this Liuyunmen is indeed not good.
The owner of the door is dead, so many people come to pay their respects.
After the evening, check the gift book and check the cash.
A total of 110,000 yuan was received in the gift money.
Excluding expenses such as the chef's salary, buying wine and vegetables, and hiring a band, there is still a net profit of 50,000 yuan.
The second disciple handed over the money and the account book to me.
I went to the north hall again, ready to transfer the money to Shen Yun.
Because these people are all here for Shen Yun's deceased husband, it is not appropriate for me to take this money.
When I got to the door of the hall, I knocked on the door.
"Please come in!"
Shen Yun's voice came from inside, because she had been busy with the funeral for the past two days, and her voice sounded very weak.
After entering the hall, I took out the gift book and 50,000 yuan in cash, and said, "Madam, you have this money!" ”
Shen Yun frowned and said, "What is this for?" ”
I said, "This is the property left by the previous master, and it should belong to you!" ”
"No!"
Shen Yun said: "Now that you are the master of the door, this money should be at your disposal." ”
