Become An Ancestor In Immortal Cultivation World
Chapter 15 Chance Encounter
As soon as he walked into the city gate, Lin Sheng felt a strong spiritual energy coming towards his face.
Today, Qinghe County has undergone earth-shaking changes. The dirty streets have become tidy. All the beggars on the roadside have disappeared. The pedestrians on the road are also well-dressed, and the majority of them are monks.
Not all monks are in Xiuxianfang City. If there are no mortals, who will do the dirty work?
While Lin Sheng was looking at the surrounding shops, a teenage boy walked up to him with a slightly reserved expression: "Senior, is this your first time coming to Qinghe County? Do you need a guide?"
Lin Sheng smiled and declined. He had lived in this city for three years and there was nothing he didn't know about. The young man could only leave with disappointment.
Who has the greatest influence on the changes in Qinghe County? That was undoubtedly the Lin family. Lin Sheng saw four or five elixir shops along the way, and all the businesses looked pretty good.
As for the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, Lin Sheng saw Lin Xiaojie standing in front of the door soliciting customers from a distance. Unfortunately, most of the monks just looked at the shop and turned around to leave.
‘The decoration of Spirit Medicine Pavilion is still too poor. Compared with other shops, it pales in comparison. ’
Lin Sheng sighed slightly and stepped forward.
"Xiaojie, it seems that you are doing your job well as the shopkeeper."
Lin Xiaojie, who was originally depressed, suddenly became energetic. He turned his head and looked back, and met Lin Sheng's smiling eyes.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaojie's eyes suddenly turned red: "Fifth brother, you are finally back."
Lin Sheng frowned when he saw this, and suddenly a bad premonition arose in his heart: "What happened?"
"Aunt Yan is dead." Lin Xiaojie's voice was filled with tears.
Spirit Medicine Pavilion, second floor, elegant hall.
Lin Sheng put down the teacup and glanced at Lin Xiaojie, whose eyes were filled with tears. He looked displeased and said, "Look at your virtues. You are a teenager. Hold back your tears."
Lin Xiaojie wiped away his tears, lowered his head and remained silent.
Lin Sheng was a little surprised by Lin Yan's death, but he was just emotional and did not feel any sadness.
From the moment Lin Yan went to Secret Realm to look for opportunities, everything was doomed. The battle for opportunities was so cruel.
Lin Sheng and Lin Yan did not have a particularly deep friendship, but Lin Yan had some relationship with Lin Xiaojie's biological father. As for what the relationship was, Lin Sheng did not know, but judging from Lin Xiaojie's reaction, this relationship may not be Simple.
"Uncle Liu went to take revenge, right?" Lin Sheng rubbed Lin Xiaojie's head. He thought of Lin Xingzheng and his group he had seen earlier.
"Yeah." Lin Xiaojie replied dully.
Every member of the Immortal Clan of the Lin family will be planted with a soul curse, and a life card will be stored in the clan. When a person dies, the card is broken and the soul is drawn.
Soul guidance does not mean to connect the soul, but to leave a breath on the murderer. The Lin family can see that breath through the specially made Law Weapon, so they can naturally take revenge and complain.
Generally, families with some background would do this. Otherwise, the Immortal Cultivation World is so big, and a clan member is killed outside without even knowing who the murderer is.
To a certain extent, some Rogue Cultivators did not dare to kill the family disciples. At most, they could just grab things and run away, and the people would still be alive.
If Lin Yan was really killed, it would only prove that the other party was also a ruthless character and was not afraid of revenge from the Lin family.
But now that Lin Xingzheng is leading the team, it probably won't develop into a plot of the gourd boy saving his grandpa. Lin Xingzheng is a man who can fight like a lion against a rabbit with all his strength.
"How's business these days?"
Lin Sheng changed the topic to save Lin Xiaojie from being immersed in grief.
"There is almost no business, and it is all taken away by other stores. They are all well prepared. We do not have any advantage at all."
When talking about business, Lin Xiaojie immediately became sad.
As expected, Lin Sheng took out the storage bag he had prepared and handed it to Lin Xiaojie. Inside were some elixir talismans that he could not use, as well as some damaged Law Weapons.
"You can sell these things in the store. It doesn't matter if the price is slightly lower. 80% of the proceeds will go to me, 10% to the public, and 10% will be considered as your hard work."
Lin Xiaojie opened the storage bag and looked at it suspiciously, his eyes immediately widened: "Fifth brother, how many people did you rob?"
"What are you talking nonsense about? I picked these up." Lin Sheng looked displeased.
Lin Xiaojie pursed his lips with disbelief on his face, but he put away the storage bag very quickly.
Lin Sheng did not explain that he had picked these things from Lin Meier and Chi Lianzi's storage bags with a clear conscience.
"The business of Zuimengfang should not be affected, right?" Lin Sheng asked casually. It is understandable that there are people in Spirit Medicine Pavilion trying to grab business and it is difficult to do business. A place for entertainment like Zuimengfang has no cost, at most it is Some wear and tear charges.
Lin Xiaojie sighed: "Now that Zuimengfang belongs to the Li family, it counts as a share of the profits for our Lin family."
"What about the female cultivators in the clan?" Lin Sheng asked back. The Lin family was weak, so this kind of thing was unavoidable. Being able to get a share of the cake was probably because of the face of the Hundred Clans Alliance.
The Alliance of Hundreds of Clans has always been an external alliance. Internally, it still emphasizes the law of the jungle, and weakness is the original sin.
"Naturally all the female cultivators in the clan quit, and those who joined later naturally turned to the Li family." Lin Xiaojie said with red eyes again, Lin Yan was dead, and Zuimengfang was gone.
‘The two flags of the Lin family are so easy to pull up. ’
Lin Sheng was filled with emotion, and suddenly saw Lin Xiaojie starting to cry again, so he quickly drove him out of the room: "Get out and cry."
As night fell, Lin Sheng left the Spirit Medicine Pavilion and walked towards North Street.
I heard from Lin Xiaojie that a night market with stalls on North Street is now planned in the city, and stalls can only be set up at night, and there is no stall management fee.
Lin Sheng didn't go to set up a stall. After all, he had a shop. He just went to see if he could find some good goods.
Now that Qinghe County Baizu Alliance has taken over, you have to pay a store management fee to open a store. Regardless of whether the business is good or bad, you will receive ten Low Grade Spirit Stones every month. Without some capital, you can't even open a store, so more Independent Cultivators have chosen Set up a stall.
Going to a stall to pick up leaks is a very technical job. There is a lot of moisture inside. After all, only a few people buy the treasures, and most of them are fakes.
And not everything is easy to buy. Sometimes if you buy a Law Weapon, it may be dirty goods, and it is common for someone to knock on your door.
Lin Sheng walked around in a circle, stopping to check out several stalls with more people, and got a general understanding of the night market.
No wonder the Alliance of Hundreds of Clans doesn't charge stall fees. If it charges stall fees, there probably won't be many people setting up stalls.
What these stalls sell are some weird things, and all of them boast that they are natural treasures, and they are just some Independent Cultivators with little experience.
With his family's upbringing and Master Zhifu's experience for most of his life, Lin Sheng could tell the truth from the lie at a glance.
For example, one of the stones that glowed red was said by the stall owner to be fire stone, a good material for artifact refining.
Lin Sheng could tell at a glance that it was just an ordinary stone that had been illuminated by magic.
As a result, the stone was bought by a monk who was in the early stage of Qi Refining for the price of five Low Grade spiritual stones. As soon as the buyer left, the stall owner closed the stall on the pretext of something going on.
Then Lin Sheng watched helplessly as the stall owner ran to another corner, changed his appearance and started selling 'Ice Essence Stone'.
‘The world is deteriorating, and people’s hearts are not as old as they used to be. ’
Lin Sheng sighed in his heart. He no longer had the mood to continue shopping. With this time for shopping, he might as well go back to the Spirit Medicine Pavilion to practice hard. The spiritual energy in Qinghe County is now richer than before.
Thinking of this, Lin Sheng was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly saw a very familiar person. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was the young man selling wordless iron tablets.
At this time, the young man's clothes were clean and he was no longer dirty and slovenly. He was lowering his head to read a book. There was also a stall in front of him. On it were several talismans and bottles of elixirs, all of which were inferior goods.
Lin Sheng's heart moved and he walked up.
"Fellow Daoist, do you still remember me?"
The boy who was reading a book suddenly raised his head. The voice was too familiar.
"It's you, the shopkeeper of Spirit Medicine Pavilion!" The young man looked surprised, with a trace of vigilance flashing in his eyes.
"I didn't expect Fellow Daoist to still remember me." Lin Sheng sighed and sat on the small bench in front of the stall. He couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the nervous young man in front of him.
"Fellow Daoist is still the same as before. He is born in Xia Lin. I don’t know the name of Fellow Daoist?"
"Ti Niu." The young man replied in a low voice with a slightly relaxed expression.
"Tieniu?" Lin Sheng looked up and down at the young man's small body and couldn't help but praise, "What a good name."
Tieniu grinned upon hearing this, showing his big white teeth.
Lin Sheng rummaged through the things on the stall and sighed with emotion: "Tieniu, you are doing well now. You are selling elixirs, talismans, and talismans."
Tieniu's face showed solemnity: "Thank you, sir, for giving me the skills to cultivate immortality. Tieniu will never forget this kindness."
"No, I didn't give it to you, I exchanged it with you. Do you still remember the wordless iron piece?" Lin Sheng shook his head and retorted.
Tieniu nodded repeatedly, how could he forget that piece of iron.
Lin Sheng showed a wry smile: "Oh, Tieniu, you have hurt me. That piece of iron has a lot of history."
Tieniu frowned when he heard this: "Why do you say that, sir?"
"Let me ask you, where did that iron piece come from?" Lin Sheng said calmly.
"I picked it up." Tieniu didn't hesitate. He pointed to the north: "I picked it up in the mountains."
"Picked it up?" Lin Sheng looked confused and felt suspicious.
Tieniu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, I went up the mountain to cut firewood that day and picked it up on a river beach. It was still shining at the time."
"Sir, what is the origin of that piece of iron?"
As he spoke, Lin Sheng carefully looked at Tieniu's expression and saw that his expression was natural and did not seem like he was telling lies. Then he sighed: "Oh, this is a big deal. Do you know the Great Buddhist Temple in the North Region?"
After seeing Tieniu shaking his head, Lin Sheng said slowly: "The Northern Territory is at the other end of the Shiwan Mountains. The Great Buddha Temple is one of the righteous leaders of the Northern Territory. This piece of iron is related to the inheritance of the Great Buddha Temple."
"Do you know the nameless temple in the bamboo forest outside the city? There is a monk from a big Buddhist temple living there. That day you brought the iron piece over. I saw that the symbols on it were somewhat similar to the Buddha statues in the temple, so I asked him, what do you think happened? "
"He snatched away the iron piece?" Tieniu looked hesitant.
"That's right." Lin Sheng had a look of regret on his face, thinking that even you kid would rush to answer.
"The monk said that the iron piece belonged to his Buddhist temple. I fought with him for a few moves and lost, so he snatched it away."
"What a pity." Tieniu also looked full of regret.
Lin Sheng pretended to be ashamed: "Tie Niu, you have to be careful. After the monk took away the iron piece and asked me where I came from, I naturally told you. He said that everyone who knew this iron piece would die."
"ah?"
