After the immortal disappeared

Mrs. Ying was right. Although the He family moved away, He Chunhua still asked someone to take good care of the place and clean it twice a year.

However, there is only Lu Xiaoyun's name on the monument, no person who built the monument, and no other information.

He Lingchuan sighed softly and presented the flowers and fruits he brought with him.

What feelings does He Chunhua have towards Lu Xiaoyun? Lu Xiaoyun has been dead for so many years, and when he was in Blackwater City, he still insisted on offering sacrifices every year, regardless of Mrs. Ying's objections.

But Lu Xiaoyun gave up his life to give birth to a son, but he was willing to use it to reward God.

He was lost in thought when someone from behind suddenly called:

"Master He?"

He Lingchuan looked back and saw an old man standing under a tree three feet away. His temples were all white, but his skin was dark and lean. He was also holding a hoe.

The old man looked at him carefully: "Oh, I admitted my mistake, it's not Lord He, it's Young Master He."

"Do you recognize me?" He Lingchuan walked over, "Old man, are you the tombkeeper?"

"Ah, yes." The old man said slowly, "Young Master He is in Blackwater City. We are the only ones who recognize you. How can you recognize me, old man?"

He Lingchuan touched his nose. Blackwater City used to be He Chunhua's territory. Of course he was domineering here, and he was indeed a young man that everyone knew about.

"Excuse me, old man, how much do you know about the late Lu Xiaoyun?" He Lingchuan asked him, "Apart from Master He coming to visit her grave every year."

The old man looked at him, then at the tombstone, and hummed, as if he was thinking.

He Lingchuan secretly lamented that the old man only seemed to be honest, then he took out half a piece of broken silver from his arms and waved it in front of the other party: "Please think about it carefully."

In an instant, the old man thought about it: "Lu Xiaoyun and her uncle moved to Heishui City more than 20 years ago. At that time, this place was still under the jurisdiction of the Anton people. Hey, those people under the Anton people are not good. thing."

"Her uncle opened a grain store here, but the business was not doing well. The rented warehouse either got flooded or was plagued by rats, and the grain was lost all day long." The old man tried to recall, "I remember that within a few years, her uncle had to Died of illness."

He Lingchuan interjected: "It is said that she is from Bailie?"

"Yes, I heard her say that her hometown is far away in the east. She and her uncle took a boat to the harbor and then trekked here."

He Lingchuan's expression changed slightly: "You didn't say why you came all the way?"

"I didn't say anything. I just said that my hometown is not good and I can't stay there any longer." The old man added, "I worked as a handyman in her uncle's grain store more than ten years ago. After drinking, he bragged that Bai Lieguo was an immortal. descendants."

"Immortal?" He Lingchuan became interested, "How do you say it?"

"It seems that there is an immortal family in their place. Is it an immortal family..."

"Immortal Sect?"

"Yes, yes! The Immortal Sect." The old man nodded repeatedly, "Then the Immortals disappeared, so they built a country, but in the end they couldn't hold on to that place, so they had to move out."

A country built by descendants of immortals? He Lingchuan's heart moved: "Where to move to?"

"It seems very far away. Go past Bejia and go east." The old man said. "He mentioned the name of the place. He also said that it is well connected and very rich, but I don't remember it."

"One time when he was drunk, he even said that Lu Xiaoyun was the only heir to their direct line Zhengshuo."

He Lingchuan's heart moved: "Is she the daughter of the clan leader or the monarch?"

"Ah, how did I know?" The old man scratched his nose, "He sometimes speaks inconsistently."

He Lingchuan asked a few more questions and saw that he could not give any more clues, so he handed him the broken silver and turned around to leave the White Pagoda Temple.

Another day later, He Chunhua arrived.

Compared to He Lingchuan's fleet of light chariots, He Chunhua brought nearly a hundred cavalry directly from the south this time. The rumble of hooves in the wilderness sounded very impressive.

He Lingchuan was shocked when he saw him: "Dad, have you lost so much weight?"

He Chunhua had only gone south to suppress the rebellion for more than a month, but he had lost a lot of weight, his skin was dark, but his eyes were even brighter.

The military career is the most training one, and He Chunhua has also devoted himself to these battles. At this time, his momentum is exuding, and it seems different from before.

"It's okay, it's okay!" He Chunhua smiled broadly when he saw his eldest son, "Everyone from the Rongshan Sect, have you settled in properly and treated him well?"

The He family no longer has any property in Blackwater City, so he has to stay in a posthouse or inn when he comes.

"Of course. Everything has been arranged." He Lingchuan also smiled brightly, "The on-site inspection of Hongya Road has been completed, and the audit of tax revenue in the past few years has been completed. Ha, I remember that the entries for some years still seem to be the same. The second one did it.”

He Yue has been helping his father for a long time, and He Chunhua is also accustomed to entrusting him with important tasks.

He Chunhua nodded repeatedly, looking very pleased: "Okay, great."

He Lingchuan then said: "I will go back in two days."

"Okay..." He Chunhua paused, "What?"

The eldest son is leaving?

"Based on the evaluation results, the Rongshan Sect Club is very satisfied with the Hongya Road mortgage. Associate Director Hu Qin and Hu have already set off to return to Rongshan. Now that this is over, I'm just waiting to meet my father. We have to return to Rongshan. Eight million taels. I signed it before I left Yuandu, and now even Hongya has accepted it." He Lingchuan said deliberately, "Father, you don't need to come all the way here. , I’ve done it all.”

He Chunhua was stunned: "Qiansong County Sheriff also asked you to check the accounts?"

"Of course I checked." He Lingchuan said with a smile, "I issued an official letter and then reported my family name. They cooperated very well."

Of course the current local official knows the reputation of the He family and will not have trouble with Young Master He - not to mention that He Lingchuan is on official business this time, and he came with a letter from the King of Kite, and the big red seals are very scary.

He Chunhua secretly cursed a few words, his face calm and clear: "Let's talk about things in two days in two days. The county magistrate is hosting a host at Hongyan Tower tonight and invites us all to go. It's been a long time since I've been here. Let's take a look at the chef of Hongyan Tower. There is no decline in craftsmanship.”

Everyone has no objection.

He Lingchuan smiled secretly. As soon as he asked to leave, He Chunhua was really anxious.

Now, it's He Chunhua's turn to find a way to make him stay.

That night in the restaurant, the guests and hosts had a great time.

The governor of Qiansong County who took over from He Chunhua was named Hu. He had a big ear and was extremely enthusiastic about the He family and his son.

Being an official in this border area is like being exiled. How much merit does he have to achieve before he can leave this barren land and move up? If we can get on Master He's line, it will be much more convenient in the future.

He asked about the war in the south at the right time, which just hit He Chunhua's pride. No matter how deep the city is, the latter still describes several great victories from beginning to end as soon as he gets drunk, and his words are full of satisfaction.

This big victory is his stepping stone.

He Lingchuan was listening and felt that it was not easy for his father to fight these battles.
