Chapter 3 Lin Xin

Shangguan Zheng came back to his senses, hey, I just arrived home yesterday, and today my daughter left home, I don't want to be busy and forget this one. It must be in Langya Sea.

"Since the first generation of the head of the Shangguan family, each generation attaches great importance to the cultivation of the younger generations, because we believe that only their excellence is the hope of the family's future development and growth. After thousands of years of development, we have not only not given up this fine tradition, but have paid more and more attention to the cultivation of younger generations. So every time at this time, there is a formal ceremony in our clan, and I think this time will be no exception. Shangguan Zheng still remembered the traditions of his clan and said slowly.

"I just don't know how the Great Elder will preside over this time. Shangguan Zheng seemed to be asking himself, and he was also asking his brother.

"Second brother, it's not the elders who are here to preside over this time. Shangguan Lan's tone changed slightly, staring at her younger brother motionlessly, her eyes shining.

"It's not the elder, it's you, I'm saying, I know, I know. Big brother, you are the one who is presiding over the ceremony this time!" Shangguan was still puzzled at first, but suddenly realized, with a burst of surprise in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and said the last word.

"That was only decided last night. Originally, I thought that the Great Elder would not let me get my wish easily, but I didn't want the result but I just wanted the opposite. He didn't care about Shangguan Zheng's exaggerated expression and said.

"Congratulations big brother, congratulations big brother. Now you are the first person in our Shangguan family," Shangguan Zheng laughed.

This is indeed something to celebrate. In the past, many plans for family ambitions were based on the ideas of the older generation. It's a good thing, it's a lot easier to do a lot of things. In terms of future development, the elders mostly think that outside the Southern Regions is already someone else's power, and if it develops outside, it is likely to clash with it, which is not good for the entire family. But in their view, sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. What if someone else attacks you in the Southern Regions in the future, so they think that it is important to hold on to what you already have, and it is even more important to develop hope for the future. This trip to Langya also came with such a task, but I didn't want to hit a wall.

"Second brother, don't talk nonsense, don't say that there are four elders in the clan, and there are many clan elders, they should all be people we respect. Now, I'm just taking on a bigger responsibility. Shangguan Lan stopped the second brother's words, afraid that he would say something disrespectful.

"Hey, hey, hey," Shangguan Zheng snorted haha. is shrewd and capable outside, and the head of the family doesn't want to have such a naïve side, and outsiders know about it, I'm afraid their jaws will drop

This first-class family in the Southern Regions can be said to be a big family, and they have never left this place since a thousand years ago. Since the first generation of the head of the family, he has started to build a family, and there are many businesses in the outside forces, and the inside is also huge, and the living place of the inner people alone covers an area of more than 10,000 acres.

To the north, a tall mountain range runs from east to west, separating the southern region from the northern regions. This mountain is extremely tall, the mountain road is slippery, the mountains are all strange and strange, and the birds and beasts in the mountains are all intimidating to ordinary people. The Fire Wing Luan of the Spirit Sword Gate is one of the many spirit beasts in this mountain. Although the masters of the Spirit Sword Sect had to work hard to subdue it, the Fire Wing Luan was just an ordinary beast in the mountains. This shows the mystery of this mountain.

Although this mountain is mysterious and unpredictable, people can't touch its roots, but from the ancestors who went to China to collect medicine and hunt beasts. This is the place where the immortals who have attained the Dao go because they have seen the immortals fighting the Fa, and between their gestures is a landslide and a stone crack, and the mana is far beyond the reach of the cultivators. They also say that there is an immortal devil in it, because there are many people who have never returned, and some people have seen piles of human bones. All kinds of legends add color to the already mysterious peaks.

People who go to the mountains dare not go too far and too deep, there is a curtain of waterfalls in the periphery of the mountain, the momentum is like a flying rainbow into the clouds and falling to the ground, and the falling water beats violently like a bell buzzing. And people have the infinite resources of this mountain, so they named it "Zhongling Mountain" to thank the people of the southern region for the kindness of this mountain. Of course, this is just the opinion of the people of the Southern Regions.

And the Shangguan family was built next to Zhongling Mountain, relying on the mountain range to overlook the entire southern region.

Due to the huge power of the family, there is a lot of exchange and trade with foreign countries, and it is a treasure land of feng shui here, and the terrain is flat. Perennial people from the side of the mountain out of the mountain, gradually more and more people come here, although the Shangguan family is huge, but the world is in charge of the world's affairs, the arrival of these people is not his family can influence. So, gradually, a small town was formed. But this is the location of Shangguan's house, and people call it Shangguan City.

......

At night, Lin Xin and Shangguan Minghao were lying on one side of the bench in the corridor, and they seemed to see the stars in the sky through the gap in the eaves.

In the whole world, there is no long gathering, sooner or later there will be separation. Whether it is birth, old age, sickness and death, or marrying far away like Sister Xue Hui. These things are not easy to face, but they have to be faced.

"It's really quiet tonight, it's still lively during the day, why do I feel like I've lost something as soon as my sister leaves, I really don't know what's wrong?" He was talking to himself, and in the end he seemed to be asking Lin Xin beside him, as if he was also asking himself.

Listening to Shangguan Minghao's words, Lin Xin laughed in his heart, you were affected by Sister Xue Hui's departure. Why do you suddenly talk like an adult?

"Minghao, your sister used to take care of us too much, and now her departure is to make us grow up. Lin Xin was twelve or thirteen years old, but because of his childhood experience, his mind matured rapidly. He has always wanted to do what is in his heart, but this thing can only be realized when he grows up, and because of the desire for it, his heart has changed a lot over the years. Seeing the world like an adult is a philosophy he summed up in his short life. This matter was said casually, and it was also the true thought in his heart.

"Haha, I don't want to grow up. I have a father and a mother to take care of me, so I have to be a person who doesn't grow up forever. Then I can always play. "Ming Hao is different from Lin Xin, in his opinion, he will not be free when he grows up, and he will do many things like his second uncle. "Lin Xin, don't you grow up, okay? So that we can always play together in the future, you know, in our Shangguan family, when my sister is gone, I only have a friend like you. Lin Xin, who doesn't play with me, what are you thinking?" Turning his head, he saw that Lin Xin didn't know where the fugue was, and he didn't listen to himself, Minghao said strangely.

"Oh, didn't think anything?"

"Where do you want to go? I can't even hear me. Ming Hao looked at Lin Xin absentmindedly and relaxed, adjusted his body and lay on his side to look at Lin Xin. After contemplating for a while, Shangguan Minghao suddenly asked, "Lin Xin, are we good friends?"

"Of course, we've always been good friends. Lin Xin said affirmatively.

"So can we stay together forever in the future?"

Always together? yes, who can be with whom all the time. Isn't that what Sister Xue Hui is like today? To marry someone is to leave. Ming Hao is the young master of the Shangguan family, and he will become the head of the family in the future, and the hope of the Shangguan family is also in him, he will not leave the Shangguan family. If Minghao and I had been together, I would have been in Shangguan's house. Regardless of whether I'm not from the Shangguan family for the time being, I still have my own things to do.

"Maybe that's okay. Without the affirmative tone just now, Lin Xin was unwilling to deceive his friend, nor did he want him to be sad.

"Really? I knew you were my true friend. Shangguan Minghao didn't hear the doubts in Lin Xin's mouth, and his face was full of surprise. The sparkle in the eyes can be seen even in the dark.

"Minghao, go back, it's late. ”

Shangguan Minghao got up, stared at Lin Xin and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good brother!" turned around and was about to leave.

Looking at Shangguan Minghao's movements, Lin Xin knew that he was grateful to himself in his heart. I was a little worried about leaving in the future. If I leave, will he blame me?

was thinking about it, but saw Shangguan Minghao suddenly stop and turn around and say: "Although your surname is Lin, my elders regard you as their own family, and I also regard you as my own brother." ”

Hearing these words coming from the night, Lin Xin didn't know what it was like in his heart......

After Shangguan Minghao was gone for a long time, Lin Xin still stopped at night.

For Lin Xin, an outsider, the people of the Shangguan family don't have too many opinions. Because many people don't care much about such an alien child. In the eyes of the elders, this is just an orphan, a poor man who lost his parents in the war that Shangguan Lan picked up from outside. The Shangguan family is too big, and not everything will be put on the table.

But this is just a white lie, Lin Xin is not only not an orphan, but in the eyes of the Shangguan Lan brothers, his parents should still be a very talented person.
