Chu Xi's surname is Lin, and the Lin family is a big family in the river. Now Hejian has been reduced to the territory of the golden people. The Jin country has enjoyed the country for a short time, and the customs and culture have begun to move closer to the Han people. So much so that when Li Hong descended between the rivers, he actually felt that this place was not much different from the Great Song Dynasty in the south.

The Lin family is very famous in the local area, and they inquired along the road, and soon Li Hong was standing at the door of the Lin family's mansion.

On the bright side, the Lin family opened a dart bureau and a pawnshop, and the business was not big or small, so the Lin family's mansion was not magnificent, and it was not as gorgeous as the mansions of several local gentry. But at a glance, you will feel that the Lin family's mansion is obviously different from the surrounding houses, and all the buildings are old, showing that the Lin family has a long history in the local area, far from being comparable to the mob. The main courtyard occupies the largest area, and the year is also the longest, the bricks and stones are black, and the moss climbs all the way to the window, but every brick and tile is exquisite and heavy, and even the stone carvings on the lintel also reveal a simple and deep meaning. The whole mansion is centered on the main courtyard and the garden at the back, and the courtyards are connected to the courtyards, connecting the courtyards that were built one after another into a whole.

This is Chu Xi's home when he was a child.

Li Hong's gaze swept over the two stone lions that had been polished very thinly at the door, projected onto the lintel, entered the main courtyard, passed through the hall, and came to the garden behind.

There is a small bridge and flowing water, and the scenery is elegant and good. When Li Hong saw the clear water, he suddenly thought that when he was a child, Chu Xi must have walked on the small bridge, playing with the lake, and maybe he had naughtily taken off his socks and hung two small and delicate snow-white bare feet into the water......

Chu Xi ...... is full of thoughts, and all in front of me is that beautiful jade face. At the beginning of the rising sun, Li Hong stood at the gate of the Lin family like a goose.

The spotless snow-white robe, with a bun on his head, and a few scattered in front of his ears, are a little uninhibited, but they look even more ordinary. The servants of the Lin family all have some knowledge, and they have long seen Li Hong's extraordinary. glanced at each other, and hurriedly ran inside to report to the head of the family.

When the time passed, Lin Ying, the head of the Lin family and Chu Xi's eldest uncle, hurriedly ran out with his robe.

Lin Ying looked Li Hong up and down, and his face immediately changed. Bowing down and beating Qian'er, his buttocks were pouted high, his forehead was almost on the ground, he walked in front of Li Hong, raised his hands and said, "Immortal Chief, invite! Lin Ying, the current head of the Xia Lin family, please go in and sit inside to serve tea." ”

"Hmm. Li Hong nodded, raised his head with his back and followed Lin Qiying step by step.

The neighbors next to him were a little disdainful when they saw that the people in this district were so big, and they squinted at Li Hong a few times and then dispersed. Only Lin Ying secretly looked at Li Hong, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became. The person in front of him looked to be in his twenties at most, but Lin Ying knew that immortal cultivators could not judge their age by their appearance.

Lin Ying had received the Replenishing Yuan Pill from Ling Xiangzi. Buyuan Dan is not even included in the last product of Zadan. It is of no use to immortal cultivators, but to mortals, it is an elixir for physical fitness and rejuvenation. Lin Ying's body has been transformed by Bu Yuan Dan, his body is as light as a swallow, his strength can carry the tripod, and he is already a top master in the world. But this kind of Lin Ying can't feel that there are people around him! Obviously, he is around, but Lin Qiying can't feel it! In his senses, the young man next to him has no image, no breathing, no blood, no breath and footsteps, that is to say, in Lin Ying's senses, Li Hong does not exist!

This made Lin Ying break out in a cold sweat. Cultivators like them have a simple way to judge the cultivation of true immortal cultivators, which is feeling. If you can't feel any breath, and you can't even feel the air fluctuations when you leave, it means that the other party is at least an elder who has cultivated above the Jindan stage.

In their eyes, the Jindan monks were already immortals!

How did such an immortal come to his house? Lin Qiying was shocked and frightened, and he was even more nervous about Li Hong's delay in revealing his identity, and the cold sweat on his forehead gradually flowed into a winding stream. But he knew better in his heart that he could only respectfully satisfy the immortals, even if the immortals killed their entire family, they couldn't resist, otherwise it might be the entire people of Hejian who would suffer! What's more, they couldn't resist at all.

Li Hong was just missing Chu Xi, how could he know these messy thoughts that were spinning in Lin Ying's mind. It's just that when he walked to the hall, he inadvertently looked at Lin Ying, but now that the face of the head of the Lin family was almost like a dead man, he said in surprise: "Brother Lin, are you okay? Why is your face so ugly?"

Calling Lin Ying Brother Lin is already an absolute honorific title, Lin Ying's mind turned, and he came to life in an instant, his face turned from white to red, the cold sweat was no longer flowing, and he spoke quickly, he knelt down and kowtowed without saying a word, and said: "It is a great honor for the Lin family to descend from the immortal chief." Please show the Immortal Chief, could it be that the Nine Leaving Sect Ancestor of my Lin family has something to ask the Immortal Elder to bring it?"

Lin Ying said this, showing that someone in his family was leaving the door in Jiu, and his position was not low. If Li Hong really has any intentions for the Lin family, he must weigh them.

Li Hong looked carefully at the head of the Lin family in front of him. Sixty years away, his beard is white, although he is old, his eyebrows can see the beauty of his youth, and if he looks closely, he actually has a rare shadow of Chu Xi. In the end, it is Chu Xi's eldest uncle, and his blood is thicker than water. Li Hong sighed in his heart, and his disgust for Chu Xi's eldest uncle in front of him was slightly reduced.

Chu Xi's parents died when she was very young. At that time, Chu Xi was still a little girl who was ignorant, and she didn't remember her parents' faces very clearly-this was a lifelong regret that Chu Xi often talked about. At that time, the person in charge of the family was Lin Ying, the uncle of Chu Xi in front of him, who couldn't be very mean to the little orphan girl, but he absolutely lacked care, and he often couldn't think of this person. In this way, everyone in the clan will be on the face of Chu Xi. The servants are the most proficient in the wind and make the rudder see people cooking, and they often deliberately ignore Chu Xi without a meal, which makes Chu Xi experience many hardships and hardships at a young age. Later, Ling Xiangzi returned home to visit relatives, and among the next generation, he didn't expect that only Chu Xi had a fire spirit, and he was also an innate fire spirit, so Chu Xi was worth a hundred times, and jumped from an orphan girl who no one cared about to become the princess of the Lin family.

Chu Xi is kind-hearted, cheerful and lively, even if he gained power later, he never thought of retaliating with those subordinates. The ups and downs of the situation made her character stronger and stronger, and she tried all kinds of ways to improve her cultivation, wanting to make people look at her. And she did.

When Li Hong revealed his identity, Lin Ying was overjoyed, and Huo Ran stood up: "It turned out to be Xi'er's fellow immortal friend, great! In the past ten years, we have not had any news of Gaozu and Xi'er, and we are always worried about them. I beg the immortal chief to be a messenger. ”

It turned out that after the Jiulimen tragedy, no one had come to report the news of the Lin family's Lingxiangzi's death in battle and Chu Xi's ascension, Li Hong hesitated when he heard it, and after thinking about it, he had to tell half of the facts, and said: "Uncle Lingxiangzi and Chu Xi have already flown to the immortal realm, and now they are out-and-out immortals. It's a great event. I'm here to tell you about it. ”

As soon as he heard the ascension, Lin Ying also understood, he was so happy that he smiled and his face was full of red light, he jumped up and couldn't sit still, and the hall was chaotic, shouting: "Come on! Gather everyone to go to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestors, I have a great happy event to announce!"

On the same day, Li Hong saw the scale and cumbersome etiquette of the Xiuzhen family.

The direct and collateral lines of the Lin family were all summoned to the ancestral hall, and Lin Ying announced the news of Ling Xiangzi and Chu Xi's ascension in public, and everyone was surprised and delighted. Soon, there were two more tablets at the top of the ancestral hall. Different from the spirit tablets carved with white silk in the low ebony, these two tablets are made of high-quality white jade, and the names of Lingxiangzi and Chu Xi's laymen are filled in the fine grooves of the engraving with gold paint, which are shining with golden light and crystal clear, and are placed in the most conspicuous and highest place, so that they will always enjoy the incense offerings of the Lin family and the worship of future generations.

The hall was filled with cigarette smoke, and Lin Ying led everyone to kneel and knock nine times. Licheng invited Li Hong to take a seat, and Lin Ying wanted to lead everyone to knock on Li Hong. Li Hongjian did not accept it. Lin Ying had no choice but to give up.

Next, the feast will be held naturally.

The Lin family has long learned to cultivate obscurity, and claims to worship ancestors to the outside world, so there is no outsider at the banquet, and they are all figures with heads and faces in the Lin family. There are only two people at the top, Lin Ying and Li Hong, and below are the seats of the clansmen. Invisibly, he has opened a large distance from his clansmen. The disciples in the clan all knew that Li Hong was an "immortal", and although they felt that they had a lot of face, none of them dared to come and talk to Li Hong. The feast was quickly eaten in restraint and glory. In fact, Li Hong didn't eat anything, only drank three glasses of wine.

After the people dispersed, Li Hong was invited by Lin Ying to the main hall to serve tea. At this time, Lin Ying finally made a request, he knelt on the ground and said: "Gaozu and Xi'er have both soared, and there is no successor to my Lin family." In the past ten years, my Lin family has also bred some people one after another, so I asked the immortal chief to see which of them has cultivated immortal root bones, if there is, the immortal chief will bring it to my Lin family's great glory. ”

Li Hong was slightly stunned, nodded, and dared to love Lin Ying to see that he was very excited for this!

A group of young people and girls walked in, obviously under the orders of the head of the house, and everyone lowered their heads in a daze, looking very restrained. Only at the end was a drooping girl, very thin, only about ** years old, and as soon as she stood up, she looked up at Li Hong curiously.

Li Hong saw a pair of clear eyes like mountain spring water. Suddenly it was like being struck by lightning, like!

That posture and appearance are actually six or seven points similar to Chu Xi when he was a child. If it weren't for knowing that Chu Xi had ascended to the immortal realm, Li Hong would almost think that it was Chu Xi's reincarnation.

When the little girl saw Li Hong looking at her steadily, she became even more curious, and tilted her head to look at Li Hong endlessly. The big eyes flickered, and at this moment, Li Hongxian had a strange thing stuck in the little girl's bun.

It was like a half-foot-long silver leaf, which looked like a silver hairpin at first glance, but Li Hong clearly felt that there was an extremely faint fluctuation of fire spirit coming from above it from time to time. This trace of fire spirit fluctuations passed through the Baihui acupoint on the top of the girl's head, and combined with a faint fire spirit fluctuation in the girl's body that only Li Hong could perceive.

This girl clearly has a fire spirit root. Moreover, Li Hong's heart moved, he jumped over, stretched out his hand and pulled out the strange silver hairpin on the little girl's head, he was shocked when he saw it, pinched the little girl's thin shoulder, and shouted: "Where did this come from?!"
