Fairy cage

That afternoon, the patriarch of the Yu family's residence became completely busy after hearing Yu Lie's visit.

The head of the Yu family almost didn't even have time to put on his shoes before he asked, "Where is nephew Yu Lie now?"

The helpful person in the residence replied: "We have already arrived at the main entrance. Taoist Master Yu Lie said there is no need to be solemn. He can just go in by himself and wait in the side hall."

The head of the Yu family immediately replied: "How is that possible! This is the first time that nephew Yu Lie comes to visit my mansion. How can he not go through the front door."

He immediately took out a piece of talisman paper from his sleeve, and his body immediately turned into wind, pulling out afterimages and running towards the door to greet the rest of the group.

At this time, the servants in the patriarch's residence could not resist Yu Lie and had already asked him to go through the side door, and he was walking towards the side hall.

As a result, as soon as he stretched out his steps, the voice of the head of the Yu family rang out: "Brother Lie, I hesitated and neglected."

Yu Lie was stunned for a moment and looked up to see the head of the Yu family who was only wearing one shoe and hadn't even had time to comb his bun.

He quickly bowed his head to show his courtesy and held the junior ceremony.

Unexpectedly, the head of the Yu family is also a wonderful person. After the other party and Yu Lie greeted him politely in front of the door, he still tried his best to invite Yu Lie, hoping to let Yu Lie walk in through the door again.

Seeing that Yu Lie was too lazy to do so, the other party simply stepped forward in person, pushed the door open as a sign of respect, and then took Yu Lie's hand and walked to the main hall.

Such a warm and familiar appearance really made Yu Lie, who had not much impression of this person, feel a little bit "flattered".

It should be noted that the other party is also an eighth-level Taoist disciple, Yu Lie's elder, and the patriarch of the Yu family. Such enthusiasm makes him feel that it is rare.

In the main hall, Yu Lie and the head of the Yu family were chatting. As expected, the other party also asked about Yu Lie's practice, stroking his beard:

"May I ask my nephew, has he ever learned breathing techniques or breathing techniques?"

The training method at the Taoist stage is Daoyin Technique, which uses external exercises to temper the body, increase Taoism, and promote digestion;

During the stage of Taoist disciples, the true qi is produced by practicing breathing techniques or breath-taking techniques to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth and refine it into one's own true qi to increase one's cultivation. It is a kind of quiet skill.

The breathing method or breathing method is the most important method and the fundamental method used by eighth-level Taoist disciples to increase their Taoism.

Yu Lie shook his head: "It hasn't been long since I broke through. I just learned a small spell. I haven't had time to select and practice the basic technique."

Hearing this, the head of the Yu family happily said:

"It's a good thing that you have no choice. Now that you have returned to the clan, the breathing method of our clan can be taught to you. In this way, you neither need to spend money to buy, nor need to incur debts and sign contracts. The breathing of the clan The Dharma is also comprehensive and has the potential and content to be promoted to a Taoist official."

The other party said: "I am a poor man who makes the decision. I will go to the ancestral hall later to burn incense, and ask for the entire secret biography of the Yu family to be given to you. You will also be able to choose the spells passed down by other ancestors. There is no need to pay attention to anything. There is no need to contribute, now that you have returned to the clan, it is your greatest contribution to my Yu family!"

The head of the Yu family had a look of expectation in his eyes. Before Yu Lie could say anything, he was still mumbling:

"The next day, Pindao will take you to visit one or two Taoist friends nearby. Although it is not very useful now, the sedan chair will definitely have some effect when you go to the City God's Temple to be on duty, and it will be convenient. Your training in Diving County... Haha, my Yu family still has some family background and favors after all."

Listening to these many words from the other party's mouth, Yu Lie's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of emotion, and the words of "farewell" he was about to say stopped in his teeth.

"The secret of the Yu family!" He thought about this and narrowed his eyes slightly.

It is said that the Yu family is the oldest family in the county for hundreds of years. Although it is only a small family and has lost, it still has a few nails left in the shipwreck. The family has preserved most of the orthodoxy left by a seventh-grade Taoist official from their ancestors.

Among them are martial arts for mortals to strengthen their bodies, instructions for enlightenment learning, guidance techniques for Taoist children, breathing methods for Taoist disciples, magic cultivation methods, and even secret methods for male and female breeding, etc.

This inheritance is quite worthy of study. Even a seventh-grade Taoist official can gain something from it.

This is actually one of the main reasons why the Huang family wants to move the people of the Yu family into their clan.

What he is after is not only the bloodline of the Yu family, but also the Taoist tradition that has been passed down for hundreds of years, especially the breathing method that can definitely become a seventh-grade Taoist official.

Because although the Huang family now has four Taoist disciples, when their family was founded, their ancestors did not have a Taoist official in the family, but a daughter of the Huang family who married outside the family, and the other party married a Taoist. Officer, a Taoist disciple happened to be born in the Huang family. Only then, with the support of the daughter of the Huang family and the Taoist officials of her husband's family, did they take root in Diquan County and become a Taoist family.

In terms of age and heritage, the Huang family is far inferior to the Yu family.

And if the Huang family had brought the Yu family members into their clan in advance, once the Yu family was removed from the family, they would be eligible to inherit the Yu family's orthodoxy from the Taoist court and increase their own heritage.

At this moment, the cultivation techniques that the Huang family had been trying to obtain, as well as many techniques that were waiting to be obtained without spending money, were placed in front of Yu Lie.

Now Yu Lie only needs to nod his head, and he can easily obtain the accumulation of more than ten generations of the Yu family and take charge of the family!

Thinking about this, he suddenly sighed softly: "It's better to have a foothold in cultivating Taoism!"

The head of the Yu family heard this and didn't understand what Yu Lie was sighing about, but he proudly stroked his beard and echoed:

"That's natural. Although my Yu family is deteriorating, it is still a family that has been in this Qianquan County for hundreds of years. Even if it is not a local tiger, it is still a local snake. There are no followers in the city, how can we be compared with the members of our family? "

The other party paused and whispered:

"But Lie Geer, you must not say this to fellow Taoists in Heishui Town. Those who live in the countryside themselves, or have been reduced to the countryside, are mostly people with no roots and no foundation in their families. My dear, don't make them jealous or ruin the relationship..."

Hearing this, Yu Lie smiled half-heartedly and looked at the head of the Yu family who looked like an elder in front of him.

Yu Lie suddenly made a decision in his heart: "I had already made up my mind when I came here. How can I forget the benefits and forget about them?"

Suddenly, Yu Lie stood up from the stool, raised his hands to the head of the Yu family in front of him, and said:

"Thank you very much for your love, clan leader, but the rest of the clan deserves its inheritance, so there is no need for this."

The head of the Yu family, who was speaking enthusiastically, immediately stopped talking. It took a long time before he opened his mouth and said one word:

"ah?"

The man's eyes jumped, and he vaguely understood Yu Lie's meaning, and complex emotions suddenly appeared in his eyes.

But the head of the Yu family rubbed his hands, stood up, and said politely: "Brother Lie, but the patriarch uncle heard it wrong. Do you plan to give up such a good opportunity and the family business passed down by your ancestors?"

Yu Lie was polite, with a look of repentance on his face:

"The patriarch heard you right, Yu Lie deserves it. It would be better to leave such a large Yu family in your hands and leave it to the outstanding descendants of the next generation to inherit it."

The Taoist court stipulates that exercises cannot be taught or received privately. There are pros and cons to inheriting a family business. The most basic point is that you have to leave your hometown and return to the Yu family. This is inseparable from the Yu family.

After hearing Yu Lie's definite and affirmative answer, the head of the Yu family, who was usually amiable, suddenly became angry.

But this person still suppressed his anger and said with a dry smile:

"Nephew Yu Lie, you have a problem with my uncle. If you don't want to return to the clan because my uncle is still alive, don't worry. As soon as you settle down and return, your uncle will abdicate immediately."

"No, no, there is no need to wait for registration. As long as you speak Jincousou, I will hand over the position of clan leader to you in advance!" the head of the Yu family said urgently.

Hearing such words, Yu Lie was startled, but he still said quietly:

"The patriarch is lying. Yu Lie really cannot bear such a responsibility."

He bowed slightly and saluted the other party.

At this time, the head of the Yu family, who had been calm at first, could no longer hold himself together.

The other party looked at Yu Lie blankly, waved his sleeves fiercely, and shouted:

"Yu Lie, I have been so polite to you since the moment you walked in. For the sake of saying good things today, I might as well say some bad things."

The head of the Yu family was angry, pointed at Yu Lie's nose, and shouted:

"Such a good opportunity, if your surname is not Yu and the blood of the Yu family flows in your body, do you think you are worthy of it? Although you have become a Taoist disciple in three years, you can be regarded as a Taoist, but there is no such thing in the world. Young Master, it’s not like our ancestors have never done it before! But do you know where our clan is now? Do you really think you can continue your efforts and continue to break through and become a Taoist official?

A man who left his hometown and became a humble man. After nine years of hard study, three years of hard work, and more than ten years of hard work, you must go to the Taoist city to be at the bottom and fight for those illusory opportunities? Is your family so small in your heart? "

This man cursed loudly and said bitterly: "It should be noted that if it were not for the support from the clan, you would not have a chance to practice Taoism in this life. I am afraid you will not even be able to read!"

Although Yu Lie came to "say goodbye" today and expected to be scolded, he did not come here to listen to humiliation and insults.

After being scolded by the other party, Yu Lie's expression suddenly changed, with a cold look in his eyes. But he resisted the urge to go back and argue with the other party.

Yu Lie just looked around the exquisite patriarch's hall and said lightly:

"Tsk. How could such a big Yu family be defeated like this when it fell into the hands of Fellow Daoist? Fellow Daoist, do you still have the nerve to criticize me?"

Yu Lie seemed to be thinking of something and said in confusion:

"By the way, your young master seems to have been a Taoist for a year before he passed the exam. It is said that he also became a Taoist disciple within three years. Why didn't he come back to serve the family, help the clan leader, and repay the clan's support?"

He smiled half-heartedly and looked at the head of the Yu family coldly.

After saying these words, the angry head of the Yu family was immediately stunned and speechless. He stared at Yu Lie's young and green face, the expression on his face was extremely complicated.

Yu Lie laughed loudly: "Haha! Let him, Yu Fenggao, have a bright future and be able to abandon his home and go away to stay in the city to practice Taoism. But I, Yu Lie, are not allowed to go to the city to see the world and find my own way. ?”

Yu Fenggao was a direct descendant of the Yu family, the son of the patriarch, and Yu Lie's cousin.

Yu Lie flicked his sleeves, turned around, and strode out the door.

When he was finally about to step out of the door, he dropped his last words:

"Yu Lie is just here to inform my friends today, not to ask for instructions. Friends Yu, take your leave!"

Suddenly, Yu Lie's body was like a gust of wind, completely flowing away from the large hall.

The head of the Yu family leaned in front of the square table. He stepped hurriedly, and his sleeves moved the teacup on the table, causing it to tip over and make a clanking sound. The man stretched out his hand as if to hold onto something, but his fingers were empty and he couldn't grasp anything at all.

He backed up like a little old man, hunched over and sitting weakly on the stool.

In the huge hall, this middle-aged eighth-grade Taoist disciple with a delicate face seemed to have aged more than ten years in an instant.

The head of the Yu family looked up at the roof, with shame and anger on his face, and murmured: "I am ashamed of my ancestors, I am ashamed of my ancestors!"

After a long time, this man was finally an eighth-grade Taoist disciple, not too young at all, and came to his senses. But as he stroked the wet table, the regret in his eyes was even greater.

Heavy sighs and questions sounded in the main room:

"Is the world of Daocheng really so tempting..."

The other side.

After Yu Lie left the residence of the head of the Yu family, he took a walk among the clan for a while. He found that people were coming and going in the Yu family at this time, and the faces of the clan members all showed expressions of joy. lively.

Some relatives and friends who had not been with the Yu family for many days, or even years, also appeared in the Yu family's mansion, swarming in with bags and gifts.

Members of the Yu family, including men, women, old and young, all came together to warmly entertain these relatives and friends who came to the clan as guests.

After Yu Lie walked out of the patriarch's mansion, he walked around.

When someone saw Yu Lie, no matter whether he was old or young, inside or outside, they all showed joy on their faces, greeted him with smiles, and proudly introduced him to others.

From time to time, children's crisp voices would be heard, pointing at Yu Lie one by one:

"Look, that's brother Yu Lie!"

Without thinking too much, Yu Lie knew that he had now become not only the focus of the Yu family, but also a source of confidence for the Yu family to feel proud.

Many relatives and friends, upon learning of his appearance, rushed over to cheer him up, get acquainted, and renew their friendship.

Yu Lie paced around, looking at the Yu family's ancestral land where spring had not yet come, but the trees were already sprouting new buds, filled with an early spring scene, and he sighed softly.

Walking among the lively crowd, Yu Lie passed through the crowd, but his face was calm.

He was just polite, and would greet the clansmen and outsiders who responded to him from time to time, but he never stopped and walked straight through these people.

Only the Yu family members, who were looking at or pointing away, smiling and talking, were left looking at his back.

Walking alone.

Staggering out of the crowd, Yu Lie appeared on the weathered "Youyu" small stone bridge. He paused slightly, but in the end without looking back, he walked off the stone bridge and left the Yu family.

Just near the stone bridge, several nearby families were watching Yu Lie leave and chatting. One of them was holding on to a dead willow tree that was sprouting, and his eyes were in a trance for a moment.

As she wiped the apron around her waist, she seemed to see Yu Lie, who was still a head short when he was fifteen years old, carrying a tall bookcase on his back, staggering down the small stone bridge alone, never to return. .

I recommend a good book, titled "Conquering the Evil One", with a brief introduction: Open your eyes and see the floating world. Control evil spirits, cultivate mysteries, raise swords, and achieve immortality!
