At night, there are no stars, no moon, the sky is very dark, the evening breeze sways the branches of the village rustling, and the insects and frogs chirp, mixed together, playing a unique nocturne, the night is dark, a total of more than 100 households in Linjia Village, most of them have turned off the lights, sleep and rest, only the old village chief's house in the middle of the village, the lights are still swaying in the house, and the dim light shines through the papier-mâché windows.

In the house, the old village chief Lin Xishan, Lin Ke, and Lin Ke's three grandchildren sat together around the fire pit, the firewood swayed, reflecting Lin Xishan's wrinkled old faces, and Lin Ke's little faces were also red from the firewood.

"Xiao Ke, grandpa knows that you have always been sensible, you have your own opinions, you have your own ideas, grandpa also knows that you want to ask, but grandpa really doesn't want you to go down that road, I just hope that you and Xiaoke will grow up safely, and then marry Xiaoke and live this life in peace, okay?"

Lin Xishan spoke, his tone was very light, looking at Lin Ke in front of him, Lin Ke next to him was slightly red when he heard Lin Xishan's words, and there was a little happiness, although the little girl was young, but under the influence of the uncles and aunts in the village, she still had some ignorant cognition of men and women, and she had always liked Lin Ke in her heart, with a little more blush on her delicate little face, and her eyes looked at Lin Ke next to her with a little shyness, but Lin Ke didn't speak, just lowered her head, and didn't look at Lin Xishan and Lin Ke, just silent.

"Hey" Seeing Lin Ke's appearance, Lin Xishan sighed helplessly, he knew that Lin Ke didn't listen to his words: "Since you have made up your mind, grandpa will try his best to help you with the last handful, I think Ning Gongzi is very good, tomorrow I will go and beg Ning Gongzi to see if Ning Gongzi can accept you as an apprentice....."

"Grandpa, is Brother Ning really an immortal?"

This time, Lin Ke spoke, his little head was raised, and he looked at Lin Xishan, with a pair of big dark eyes with a scorching color, it could be seen that he really wanted to embark on the path of cultivation, even Lin Ke's beautiful big eyes next to him also looked at Lin Xishan, sparkling, full of curiosity and a kind of worship, immortals, they can fly to the sky and the earth, move mountains and reclaim the sea, for them, they are simply legendary characters.

"Yes, Ning Gongzi must be from the Immortal Family. Lin Xishan nodded enough, affirmed, although he himself is an ordinary person, but his life experience, he still believes in his own vision, from the first time he saw Ning Caichen, he concluded that Ning Caichen is definitely not an ordinary person, he must be a person who cultivates the Tao of the immortal family, and even if he is in the immortal family, he is definitely not idle, because he has seen several immortals of the Great Yan Dynasty before, but compared with Ning Caichen, not to mention anything else, that is, in terms of temperament, he feels that those people are compared to Ning Caichen is a firefly in Haoyue:" Tomorrow grandpa will take you to see Ning Gongzi and ask him to accept you as an apprentice, but when the time comes, it depends on Ning Gongzi's intentions, but you have to remember one thing, if Ning Gongzi agrees, this is your blessing, you must cherish it, remember this kindness in your heart, one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father, if Ning Gongzi does not accept you, you can't have a grudge against Ning Gongzi, because Ning Gongzi does not owe us anything, these, you have to remember. ”

Lin Xishan also warned Lin Kedao that the entire Linjia Village is simple and simple, and most of the people here have simple personalities.

"Grandpa, don't worry, Xiao Ke can wake up. ”

Lin Ke nodded solemnly.

"Grandpa, I also want to defeat Brother Ning as a teacher. At this time, Lin Ke, who had not spoken next to him, interjected, making Lin Xishan and Lin Ke slightly stunned, and then looked at Lin Ke, feeling the gaze of the two, Lin Ke was obviously a lot nervous, pinching the corners of his clothes with both hands, but there was a stubbornness on his delicate little face, he glanced at Lin Ke, and finally looked at Lin Xishan and said: " I heard that the lifespan of immortals is very long, if Brother Xiao Ke really cultivates immortals, Ah Ke can't be with Brother Xiao Ke all the time, so Ah Ke also wants to cultivate immortals, and Ah Ke wants to be with Brother Xiao Ke forever..."

Some stubborn and a somewhat immature voice came out of Lin Ke's mouth, but Lin Xishan and Lin Ke were stunned, looking at Lin Ke, Lin Ke also looked at Lin Ke and Lin Xishan, for a while, the three of them were speechless.

At the same time, on the other side, on a roof, Ning Caichen was lying on the roof, but he was speechless for a long time, with his current realm, how to be sensitive to his senses, Lin Xishan, Lin Ke, and Lin Ke's three grandfathers and grandsons were all listened to by him word for word, and even under the observation of his divine sense, the situation of the entire house was fully seen by him, and his heart was slightly touched.

When he first met Lin Ke during the day, Lin Ke expressed his heart to him, wanted to cultivate, and even asked him if he was an immortal, but at that time, Ning Caichen smiled, and when he met in Pingshui, he didn't think that he had too much intersection with the other party, at most he was a passerby in his life, but now, he had another idea.

For yourself, it may be just a trivial thing, but for others, it may be a life-changing fate.

"We'll see tomorrow. ”

All night, Ning Caichen lay on the roof, and he preferred to lie on the roof and listen to the sound of frogs rather than the bed in the house.

The next day, the sun had not yet risen, the sky had just dawned, Ning Caichen had just squinted for a while with his eyes closed, and was alarmed by the noise of horses' hooves.

At this time, the people in the village were also alarmed, and they all walked out of the house, looking at the cavalry from outside the village, the old village chief also walked out of the house with the support of Lin Ke and Lin Ke, and the eyes of the people in the village were attracted by the sudden arrival of the army, but no one noticed Ning Caichen on the roof.

"It's someone from the imperial court" "What's going on, why did the imperial court come to collect taxes, but it's not this time, it's not until the end of the year, and the taxes should be collected at the end of the year...."

The people of the village rushed to the gate of the village, and there was a lot of discussion, at this time, the cavalry also stopped at the gate of the village, and in the front carriage of the two carriages behind, a middle-aged man dressed as a civil official in an official robe walked down, with a pointed chin, a long horse face, and long slanted eyes, giving people a sense of treachery, and came to the front.

"Which one is in charge of the village, come out!"

The middle-aged civil servant shouted, loudly.

"Old Lin Xishan, who is the village chief of the village, has seen adults, but I don't know what the adults have to do when they come to the village. ”

Lin Xishan walked to the front with the support of Lin Ke and Lin Ke, and saluted respectfully to the middle-aged civil official.

"Yo, it turned out to be an old man" Who knows, seeing Lin Xishan, as soon as the middle-aged civil official saw Lin Xishan, he said in a frivolous tone, with contempt and disdain, as if he looked down on it: "But it doesn't matter, the old man is the old man, anyway, it's not in the way?"

"Your Excellency is right, your adult is right. ”

Lin Xishan followed with a smile, and many of the village names behind were glaring angrily at the civil officials, a cold light flashed in Lin Ke's eyes, but it was only a flash and disappeared, and no one found it, Lin Ke's little girl's cheeks bulged, and she looked a little angry, but she was pulled by Lin Xishan.

"Huh, a bunch of untouchables. Feeling the angry eyes of many villagers, the middle-aged civil official sneered again, contemptuous and sarcastic, self-evident: " Okay, this official doesn't want to delay more in your poor country, and you pariahs have general knowledge, to tell you the truth, this official is here on the order of the king, levy the immortal brew in Linjia Village, because there will be a holy land of Tianjiao to come to my Dayan Dynasty as a guest, so, when the immortal brew arrives, it will be used as a tribute wine to entertain distinguished guests from all parties, this is your blessing, so, hurry up and hand over the immortal brew, how much to pay, don't hide it privately, if you let the official know which one dares to hide it privately, hum..."

In the end, the middle-aged civil official snorted coldly a few times, the threat was self-evident, this was very annoying, this person put on a high-minded posture as soon as he came, contemptuous of them, and now he also put on a tough posture to levy immortal brew, many young men and men in the village were even more clenched with their fists tight, eager to go up and beat this middle-aged civil official to death.

"Okay, okay, everyone is gone, go and take out all the immortal brew according to the instructions of the adult, and the adult also said that this wine is for entertaining distinguished guests, and it is also the honor of our Linjia Village." ”

But it was the old village chief who played a round and appeased everyone, in the village, Lin Xishan's reputation is very high, and everyone knows that the old village chief is for the whole village, they are just a small village, they are all ordinary people, if they go against the court, they will definitely not have a good life, although they are angry, they can only endure it, leave one after another, and go to the house to get wine.

"Old man, are you very interesting?"

Regarding Lin Xishan's approach, the middle-aged civil official seemed to be very satisfied, and looked at Lin Xishan and said jokingly.

"That's as it should be, as it should be. ”

Lin Xishan smiled at the civil officials of Zhongguang and catered to him, Lin Ke let go of Lin Xishan, and under Lin Xishan's signal, he went home to get the wine.

"Big brother. ”

Lin Ke saw Ning Caichen coming over, shouted, glanced at Ning Caichen, and then looked at the back.

"You go get the bar, I'll go over and have a look, don't worry, I'm here." Ning Caichen touched Lin Ke's head.

"Hmm"

Lin Ke nodded, and then trotted into the village, while Ning Caichen walked towards the village gate.

"Ning Gongzi", "Big Brother", "Ning Gongzi"

Ning Caichen came to the gate of the village, Lin Xishan and Lin Ke both said hello to Ning Caichen when they saw this, Ning Caichen nodded at Lin Xishan, rubbed Lin Ke's little head again, and then looked at the middle-aged civil official, his eyes were very calm, but this glance frightened the middle-aged civil official, especially Ning Caichen's cold and calm purple eyes, when he looked over, the middle-aged civil official only felt his heart tighten.

However, Ning Caichen just glanced at the middle-aged civil official, and then looked at a carriage at the back of this army, and after a glance, Ning Caichen withdrew his gaze and no longer paid attention, but stood next to him, leading Lin Ke and a few children to stay together.

The middle-aged civil official looked at Ning Caichen and was furious in his heart, because the moment he realized Ning Caichen just now, he was scared, and now he felt a huge shame when he came back to his senses, but he didn't dare to provoke Ning Caichen easily, because judging from Ning Caichen's dress and temperament, he could see that Ning Caichen was obviously not from Linjia Village, and he was not ordinary.

"Interesting, I can't imagine that there is a small Linjia village and someone I can't see through? ”

"I didn't see it clearly, but I think this person should not be very old, and his strength should not be high, and even there should be some secret technique to hide his own cultivation, so that people can't see through it, but we are only here to get wine this time, and the Tianjiao of the Holy Land is about to arrive, as long as the person in front of him is honest." ”

In the carriage at the back of the line, two voices whispered.
