Chapter 121: Rational Mother-in-law
Lu Tong looked at the puzzled expressions of the three of them, and had no choice but to say: " The three heads, the disciples have always liked to meditate, has been used to being alone, and does not care about the location of the cave, the degree of aura, this time in the Yunyang ghost mound, the disciple is not dead, by chance, with the help of the predecessors of Lianshan, he was able to establish a miracle for the sect, and has already obtained great benefits, every time he thinks of these, the disciple is deeply ashamed, if the benefits of the world are let the disciples monopolize it, and then get a better location of the cave, it will inevitably embarrass other senior brothers and disciples, causing some unnecessary trouble, so the disciple implores, the three heads of the family are fulfilledใ โ
After saying this, Lu Tong bowed slightly to the three of them, Lu Tong's words were half-truths and half-truths, he entered the foundation building period at a young age, and made great achievements for the sect, it is inevitable that he will incur the jealousy of some of his fellow sects, and there are too many secret treasures on his body, although Lu Tong is not afraid of these troubles, but if necessary, it is not wrong to restrain the light, and it is always wrong to act in a low-key manner, as for whether the location is remote or not, whether there is a natural barrier guard, these Lu Tong will not care at all, and wait until he establishes the cave, study the formation beast skin, choose one or two of them at will, and arrange them around the cave, which is far better than the effect of these natural barriers, and the intensity of the aura, Lu Tong will not worry about this, he has black and white stones, which can quickly transform aura, and his cultivation speed is much faster than that of other monks, so Lu Tong will choose this place where the location is more remote and the terrain is clear at a glance as the place where his cave is located.
After Lu Tong said this, Jiang Sitian looked at Hao Qiuyuan and Baili Wentian again, and his lips moved slightly, obviously discussing something, after a while, Jiang Sitian opened his mouth and said: "Senior nephew Lu, since you sincerely want to choose the cave mansion here, we don't have any opinions, just now the three of us discussed it, you can expand the territory of your cave mansion to the east by half as compensation, I don't know if Senior Nephew Lu can be satisfied?"
The disciple thanked the three leaders for their kindness. After Jiang Xitian finished speaking, Lu Tong hurriedly thanked him.
"It's just that the place chosen by Master Lu's nephew has not been sorted out, and it is not convenient to open up a cave to live in for the time being, and I ask my nephew to wait for a few days, and Jiang will immediately arrange for his disciples to tidy up this place, during this period, if Master Lu's nephew does not dislike it, he can go to Jiang's cave to live temporarily for a few days. โ
Jiang Sitian spoke again.
"The disciple thanked Deputy Head Jiang for his hospitality, but the disciple wanted to take this opportunity to go home to visit his parents and relatives, so that he could fulfill the disciple's wishes, and concentrate on cultivation after returning, and asked the three heads to agree. Lu Tong thanked Jiang Sitian, and then opened his mouth to plead.
Since entering the Qingquan Sect to cultivate, Lu Tong has not gone home to visit his parents for twelve years, and he has entered the foundation building period, with a lifespan of more than three hundred years, but his parents are still mortals, and their lifespan is no more than a hundred years, so going home to visit his parents and relatives has become Lu Tong's greatest wish at this time.
"Hehe, the master and nephew have entered the foundation building period, the relationship between the monk and the mortal is very clear, and the disposal has its own measure, you can rest assured that you can go home once, and please bring our greetings to the second elder. Facing Lu Tong's request, Hao Qiuyuan smiled and spoke.
The disciple thanked the three heads again, and in this way, the disciple retired. After speaking, Lu Tong bowed to the three of them and quickly exited the Elders' Hall.
"Senior brother, I really don't understand why Senior Nephew Lu chose the cave mansion in that place, the reason he gave is a bit far-fetched. After Lu Tong left, Jiang Xitian spoke.
"Yes, Senior Brother Hao, is there any secret or distress on Senior Nephew Lu!" Baili Wentian also agreed.
"I don't know, in the place of the ancestors, this Lu Shi nephew refused the invitation of the ancestors to spar, whether there is a secret or a hard time, I don't know, but looking at Lu Shi Nephew's courage and scheming is far from comparable, maybe in the future we will also benefit from him, now just take good care of it." After Hao Qiuyuan finished speaking, he slowly walked out.
Baili Wentian and Jiang Xitian glanced at each other, obviously shocked by Lu Tong's refusal of the ancestor's invitation, but Hao Qiuyuan didn't say anything about the details, and it was inconvenient for them to ask, so they could only leave the elders' hall separately.
After Lu Tong left the Elders' Hall, he hurriedly rushed to Zhong Yunhai's cave mansion, the main purpose of his visit was to implore Zhong Yunhai to allow Zhong Lianhong to go home with him to visit his parents, after all, taking his daughter-in-law home was the greatest comfort to the second elder.
It didn't take long for Lu Tong to come to Zhong Yunhai's cave, and as soon as Lu Tong stood still, he heard Zhong Yunhai's voice from the cave: "Lu Tong, come in!"
So Lu Tong walked into Zhong Yunhai's cave quickly, but saw that Su Xinyun and Zhong Lianhong were there, so he hurriedly walked two steps quickly and paid a big salute: "Lu Tong pays a visit to his father-in-law and mother-in-law." โ
As soon as Lu Tong said this, Zhong Lianhong blushed and lowered her head embarrassedly, Su Xinyun looked at Lu Tong with a smile, and Zhong Yunhai replied, and then asked: "Get up, hurry up, Lu Tong, is it okay to meet the ancestor?"
"Everything went well with the ancestor. Lu Tong replied, and then told Zhong Yunhai and Su Xinyun about his experience of meeting the ancestor, the matter of choosing the cave mansion and the matter of going home to visit his parents.
"Lu Tong, since the Elders Council agreed to let you choose the Cave Mansion independently, why did you also choose the Cave Mansion in that more remote place?" After listening to Lu Tong's story, Su Xinyun looked puzzled and asked.
As soon as Lu Tong was about to explain, he heard Zhong Yunhai speak: "Xinyun, Lu Tong is not a child, so he has his own reasons for choosing this, don't blame anything." โ
"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, the reason why Lu Tong chose that place is to understand the truth that the moon is full and the water is overflowing, after returning from the Yunyang Ghost Mound, the child gets too many benefits and too heavy, if you don't know how to converge and are insatiable, sooner or later you will suffer a big loss, only by minimizing these effects as soon as possible, it is best to be invisible, and the child will have room to play again. Although Zhong Yunhai told Su Xinyun not to delve into anything, Lu Tong still explained seriously.
"Xinyun, thanks to your cultivation for more than a hundred years, your knowledge is not as good as that of the younger generation, Lu Tong is right, too much, I don't know how to converge, sooner or later I will suffer a big loss, only by minimizing the impact of this time, can we continue to move forward. After listening to Lu Tong's explanation, Zhong Yunhai said to Su Xinyun, and then turned his face and said to Lu Tong:
"Lu Tong, the matter between you and Miss Linghe of the Seven Evil Sects, as well as the conditions that Hong'er put forward to you, your mother-in-law has already told me, this is a matter between your juniors, it is inconvenient for us as elders to interfere, you can decide for yourself, it's just the conditions that Hong'er proposed, I don't know if you feel embarrassed?"
As soon as Zhong Yunhai finished saying these words, Lu Tong almost didn't die of shock, and thought to himself, how could this Zhong Lianhong tell his mother everything, and even told his mother about the conditions he put forward to him, which made Lu Tong say what is good, but after thinking about it, this is okay, the province will not be able to explain clearly, and the trouble will continue, so he solemnly said to Zhong Yunhai and Su Xinyun:
"The second elder is above, Lu Tong promises to absolutely respect Lianhong's decision, and there will be no embarrassment, as for Miss Ling and Lianhong, Lu Tong will take care of it. โ
"Okay, Lu Tong, we are relieved to have your words, you go home to visit your parents this time, let Hong'er go with you! Let Hong'er do some filial piety for her children, and take us to say hello to the second elder by the way." Su Xinyun saw the embarrassed look on Lu Tong's face and said to Lu Tong.
Lu Tong thanked his father-in-law and mother-in-law for their understanding. Hearing Su Xinyun say this, Lu Tong was extremely happy, and he really responded to the old saying "The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more pleasing it is, and the more she looks at it, the more she understands her son-in-law's mind", he was struggling to find a suitable reason to mention his own matter to Zhong Yunhai, but he didn't expect Su Xinyun to take the initiative to mention it, how could Lu Tong be unhappy? So he hurriedly thanked him.
"Mother" Zhong Lianhong pulled Su Xinyun's sleeve with her hand a little shyly.
"Hong'er, after returning home with Lu Tong, serve the second elder as a mortal, and you must not be arrogant and willful. Su Xinyun solemnly instructed Zhong Lianhong again.
"The child remembers his mother's teachings, and must be with Lu...... Lu Tong took good care of the second elder and made the second elder happy. At this time, Zhong Lianhong was not embarrassed, and replied with a straight face.
So Su Xinyun whispered a few more words in Zhong Lianhong's ear, and after Zhong Lianhong heard it, she glanced at Su Xinyun a few times and nodded shyly.
"Lu Tong, hurry back! Pay attention to safety on the road and strive to come back as soon as possible." Zhong Yunhai instructed again.
"The child thanks the father-in-law and mother-in-law for their understanding. Lu Tong thanked him again, then turned around and walked out.
Zhong Lianhong looked at her parents, bowed slightly, and then followed Lu Tong out of the cave with a smile on her face.
"It's really a big girl, and after a while, I followed the others, completely ignoring my feelings, really. After Lu Tong and Zhong Lianhong left, Su Xinyun said with a smile.
"And Hong'er, you weren't the same at the time. Zhong Yunhai also said with a smile.
"However, Yunhai, why did you say that Lu Tong chose his cave mansion in that remote place? His explanation is obviously a bit far-fetched, our son-in-law must have some secrets that he doesn't want people to know, I really don't know if this is good for Hong'er?" Su Xinyun heard Zhong Yunhai say this, his face turned red, and he hurriedly changed the topic.
"There will definitely be secrets, otherwise he wouldn't have advanced to the foundation building period in such a short time, but we cultivators, who doesn't have their own secrets? We care about what those do? As for Hong'er, don't worry, her vision is far stronger than yours, and the people she values are thousands of times stronger than the people you fancy. Zhong Yunhai said with a smile.
"Yunhai, you...... I don't bother to pay attention to you. Su Xinyun was slightly annoyed when he heard Zhong Yunhai say this, but turned to laugh and scold.
