Lin Yihua walked out of Taihua Hall and walked quickly to his small courtyard.

Lin Yihua's wife is Zhang Xiaoyan, a sister of the same generation, the two have known each other for many years, and later under the mediation of their aunt, they began to understand each other, and they exchanged letters constantly.

After getting married, the mountain gave the two of them a set of yards, but the old people of the two families did not want to live in the mountain, and they always lived at the bottom of the mountain.

After Lin Yihua's position was determined, he had the mood to look at his surroundings, walking all the way, and seeing the inside of Huashan now, compared with when he left fourteen years ago, it was very different.

At the foot of the Jade Girl Peak and the mountain, only the Taihua Hall remained, as well as seven halls such as Duzhi, Zhike, Gonggong, Foreign Affairs, General Affairs, and Tibetan Scripture Academy, and the other seven such as the Academy, the Taoist Academy, the Sword Qi Chongxiao Hall, the Discipline Hall, the Inspector's Yuan, the Information Hall, and the Anju Hall were moved to the other four peaks.

The hall masters, helpers, elders, and shopkeepers above the third level all have a set of small courtyards between the five peaks, while the other inner disciples and below live outside the five peaks.

As the paths extended outward, with the Jade Girl Peak as the center, all the peaks within a radius of more than 20 miles were connected, and more residential courtyards were built.

Many elders who are old and like to be pure also choose to live in valleys and peaks where there are few personal tracks, and study martial arts and Taoism.

If you follow the experience of the past, when you enter Huashan, you can see the left side of the Jade Girl Peak, and the daily activities of Huashan disciples here are only three or four hundred people, and the area where nearly two thousand people live outside the five peaks is not open to outsiders.

On the way, I met a few brothers who also went home for dinner, Lin Yihua made an appointment with them to drink, and then entered his yard, Zhang Xiaoyan had already prepared the meals, dishes and chopsticks.

"Senior brother is back, wash your hands and eat!"

When Zhang Xiaoyan saw her husband, she shouted happily, "Xiaozhu, bring a basin of water to your uncle." ”

The maid Xiaozhu brought the water, Lin Yihua washed his hands, and ate with his wife.

"It's going well!"

Zhang Xiaoyan sandwiched a piece of wild boar ribs for Lin Yihua and asked with concern.

The news that Lin Yihua will be transferred to Taihuatang was circulated in the mountains as early as two months ago, and everyone knows that Lin Yihua has been one step ahead in the competition for the successor of the head.

If Lin Yihua doesn't make any mistakes in this position, the next head must be him.

As a wife, Zhang Xiaoyan naturally cares about her husband's future.

"It's okay, I'm just starting to get familiar with the affairs of Taihuatang. ”

Lin Yihua said that as for the troubles brought by the Songshan faction, he was not ready to talk to his wife.

Zhang Xiaoyan also knew the rules, asked a few words casually, and then changed the topic.

"Da Zai said before you came back that after you came back, you would celebrate with wine at the foot of the mountain, when do you think you will be free?"

Lin Yihua shook his head and said: "You go back down the mountain and talk loudly, the wine will be free, three days later, I will go home, let our father and mother, the big fat uncle and aunt, and the big girl Gu all come over, and a few families will gather at home." ”

Lin Yihua's sister has no cultivation talent, she has been working as a handyman in Huashan, and she got along with Gu Quan of the Tibetan Academy, and the two got married earlier than Lin Yihua.

The younger brother Lin Yaozu also has no talent for cultivation, but he reads well, he was admitted to Xiucai a few years ago, and now he is studying hard in a college in Xi'an, preparing for the examination, and he is not at home all the year round.

Zhang Xiaoyan knew that the senior brother had many good friends, and when he said hello, everyone would gather, but at this juncture, it was not suitable, after listening to the words of the senior brother, he knew that the senior brother did not get carried away because of this, and nodded happily: "Okay, I will go back in the afternoon, and our family will gather together to wash the dust for you." ”

Zhang Xiaoyan has an excellent temperament and talent, and her cultivation has reached the peak of the fourth layer, refining the Jade Girl Suxin swordsmanship, and her martial arts strength is also the best among the disciples of the Yi Zi generation.

Originally, there was some indisputable temperament, but since he knew that his senior brother was about to become the head of Taihua Hall, he also began to consciously pay attention to the situation in the mountains, and when he had the opportunity, he would talk to his senior brother in detail.

"In the past two years, there have been more and more birds and animals in the mountains, and they have become more and more ferocious. ”

Zhang Xiaoyan said with a smile: "Every month, the Sword Qi Chongxiao Hall will organize the little juniors to hunt and kill the fierce beasts as a training task, and the General Affairs Hall also encourages the handymen and junior disciples to shoot birds and birds, hunt and kill snakes and rats, not to mention, the beast meat in the mountains is delicious, and after eating, I don't want to eat the mutton and beef bought outside." ”

Lin Yihua savored the ribs in his mouth and said in surprise: "This meat is indeed delicate and has a long taste, and it is also hunted in the mountains." ”

"Yes, it was sent to you by Big Fat. ”

Lin Yihua smiled, he and Zhang Yiming were like brothers, and Zhang Yiming simply sent these conveniences to his house without scruples.

Lin Yihua suddenly remembered the rich medicinal fragrance he smelled when he entered the mountain, and his heart moved, and he asked, "Is it because it has been like this in the past two years?"

"What?"

"Did the meat of the beasts in the mountains taste better from two years ago?"

Zhang Xiaoyan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, I didn't feel anything before, but it has been very delicious in the past two years." ”

"The general affairs hall said that because the medicinal herbs were planted in the mountains, the wild beasts stole them and grew strong!"

After Zhang Xiaoyan finished speaking, she subconsciously looked at the door and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, some senior brothers are discussing in private, saying that our Huashan is the Xianjia Cave Mansion, the fourth cave heaven, called the Xiandong Heaven, has immortal energy. ”

"Therefore, those precious medicinal materials can grow in the mountains, and the beasts have absorbed the immortal qi, and the meat is more delicious. ”

"But the general affairs hall said, don't say that there are some of these and there are not, and then no one said it. ”

Lin Yihua blinked, a little worried in his heart.

Two years ago, two years ago!

The large-scale transplantation of medicinal herbs began two years ago, and the beast change also took place two years ago.

The head of the family ordered the encirclement of twenty miles around Huashan, also after this.

Two years ago, the head of the sect also began to intervene in the development of Nanhaitang, asking to slow down the pace of emigration, and slowly transfer the Huashan disciples who were outside back to the mountain.

Could these things have something to do with the changes in the mountains?

"Senior brother, the mountains are indeed getting better and better, a few days ago, a junior sister's hand bones were discounted, I sent it to the medicine hall, and listened to the apprentice disciples there: In the past two years, there have been fewer and fewer other diseases, only iron damage, snake and insect poison and the like remain. ”

Zhang Xiaoyan whispered, obviously thinking that there was indeed something magical in the mountains, and the minor illnesses and pains on many people slowly disappeared.

Lin Yihua nodded and advised, "You just have a number in your heart." Zhang Xiaoyan nodded.

Lin Yihua thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Yang Jian...... Yi Jian, how have you been in the past few years?"

Zhang Xiaoyan was stunned, she didn't expect her senior brother to suddenly ask about Yang Yijian, and thought about it: "In the first few years, it was the same as before, calling friends and drinking and playing every day, and later, well, after the birth of the big fat boy in his family, he began to take care of the family." ”

"Hey, don't mention it, I haven't felt it yet, it seems to have changed quite a lot. ”

"Since he didn't attend the party, there was no one to take the lead, and you brothers who came back from the South China Sea gradually took care of each other, and rarely got together. ”

Lin Yihua breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although Yang Yijian was flamboyant, he was a smart person after all, and he didn't continue to mess around.
