The honest and loyal disciples
d, preventing me from even trying to dodge. It's a complete takeover.His mind was a blank slate, all senses swirling as he sank in and out of consciousness. His murmurs were soft and gentle or loud an...Da Mao is two and a half years old, and Er Mao is about ten months old. You're only thinking about giving them red envelopes now Isn't that a bit late
I looked at Lin Yanqin amusingly. She folded her hands together and whispered, "Sorry, sorry. My family doesn't allow 'feudal superstition'. I wanted to burn a few billion bank notes for your husband during the seventh lunar month, but I didn't have a chance to sneak out..."
That statement sounds really awkward...
I smiled and said, “There’s no need for that. Just hurry back home. With you around, both my brother and I will feel much more at ease.”
"Am I that important" Lin Yanqin was stunned.
"Of course, with you here, our building's security is much better at least." I nodded in agreement.
"That's great, as long as my brother wakes up soon, I'll pack my things and come back immediately... But now there are two nannies taking care of Big Mao and Second Mao, so I don't have to worry much... Our house can't fit anymore! It's too lively." Lin Yanqin stuck out her tongue.
Indeed, our family has both the elderly and the young now. Dad keeps mentioning secretly building an extension to enclose the balcony, creating another children's room. That's not a bad idea either.
"No, then let's just buy the one next door. Knock down the wall and connect the yards, we can live in both houses directly." Lin Yanqin turned to my brother and said.
"You say buy, just buy That depends on whether they're willing to sell! Houses like this in the city center, where you can stay home and do nothing, are hard to find." My brother scoffed.
Lin Yanqin pouted and said, “It’s just about the money not being in place. I’ll go talk to them.”
My brother, with a numb scalp and speechless face, said, "Miss, don't be foolish and take money for granted..."
"Okay, okay, I'll go check on my brother first!" Lin Yanqin pulled me and hurried towards the courtyard.
My brother and Jiang Qiyun followed behind, I don't know what the two of them said. I saw Jiang Qiyun nod.
What Even Jiang Qiyun agrees to rent the next-door unit, huh
When my dad bought this house, it wasn't as hot as it is now. It was pretty expensive back then, hundreds of thousands of dollars per unit. That was a fortune for that era.
But now, millions can only afford a small apartment of 60 to 70 square meters. The price of our old building has also tripled.
I feel like if we were to really buy the neighboring building, it would cost at least tens of millions.
Although we don't open for business for three years, and then feast for three years, losing millions still hurts.
Lin Yanqin apparently hadn't considered the matter of money—as long as her brother, Lin Yanhuan, woke up, money was just a number.
To allow Lin Yanhuan to rest, we didn't all go in at once. Only my brother accompanied Lin Yanqin inside.
I stood with Jiang Qiyun at the moonlit opening of the small courtyard. The night in the Shen family was cold and quiet, a place he actually preferred more.
There are picturesque mountains and beautiful waters, and the moonlight is like silk.
Alas, I'm still rolling in the dust of this world, so I can only force him to accompany me.
"What are you thinking about" Jiang Qiyun asked me.
"...I think the Heavenly Emperor has been tainted by the mortal world, hmm" I answered softly.
What kind of money, house, these things, he felt like listening to his ears was a kind of "pollution".
Such a celestial immortal as Jiang Qiyun would either take up residence on a fairy mountain or travel throughout the nine heavens.
At this moment, however, he is holding my hand, standing under the gate in the night, listening to the joys, sorrows, and tribulations of the mundane world.
"As the ruler of the Underworld, I encompass both yin and yang. Naturally, I am attuned to all that happens in the mortal realm. It's not a matter of being tainted by it... if I truly had to say... it would be tainted by you."
He chuckled softly, lowering his head to lightly brush my ear with his lips.
"Mu Xia Qiao... don't worry, cultivation most fears impatience. Impatience leads to an unstable mind and straying into the wrong paths. Take it slow... I have great confidence in you."
Are you confident My little lotus flower is shrinking instead of growing, and I don't know when or how long it will take to advance my cultivation.
Before that, I spent some time cultivating in the Wu Wang Mountain City. However, the Wu Wang Mountain City is now facing survival issues. The main residents have moved out, and there are still many displaced people within the sect who are rebuilding their homes.
In the future, once it is properly repaired, it might also become like Long Xiaoguo's Miao Wang City, with its "roots" within the legal system but existing externally.
"Don't think too much about it." Jiang Qiyun pinched my chin: "You are the Immortal Queen of the Underworld, so your affairs are naturally my affairs too."
I nodded, watching my brother walk out with Lin Yanqin's shoulder in his arms.
"Little Qiao, did my brother really speak" Lin Yanqin's eyes were red.
"Really, he was very clear in the recording, but then there was no more movement. I'm very worried, and I'm planning to go north in the next day or two to look for the legendary ghost instrument."
Lin Yanqin let out a soft sigh and comforted me instead, "Don't tire yourself out too much. You've lost weight from being so busy... This kind of thing can't be blamed on you guys, but you're the only ones running around non-stop. Our family isn't any help."
"My brother-in-law has something going on, can I not rush around" My brother chuckled and pinched her: "Don't talk nonsense, get some rest early. Tomorrow we'll start packing up and leave. You go back to the capital for me."
Lin Yanqin puffed her cheeks and nodded, she was sent back by my brother as soon as she arrived. She must be unhappy.
“Why don't you have a good rest today It's tiring for Yan Qin to travel back and forth like this. Let's set off again the day after tomorrow.” I quickly said.
I also want to have a good talk with Jiang Qiyun in the small building.
"“
After the departure time was set, the disciples of the Shen family hurried to arrange their itinerary and pack their magical artifacts.
Xiao Shanming was quite envious after seeing how the Shen family operated. Even when he was about to leave, he kept praising the Shen family for their large business and well-organized operation. Their disciples, besides daily practice, each had their own responsibilities, making everything run smoothly.
We flew to a province in the northern hinterland. Xiao Shanming's disciples were located at the junction of three provinces, near the capital region, so we went to a place called Shilitup first.
In the north, there are more military strongholds, so many place names are called "camp," "fort," "pavilion" and so on. There are also ten miles, twenty miles, thirty miles, a hundred households, two hundred households... and so on.
The location isn't hard to find, but people are.
After getting off the plane, the disciples of the Shen family rented two SUVs for us. My brother drove one with me and Shen Qingrui, while Xiao Shanming drove the other with us.
Xiao Shanming is very afraid of Shen Qingrui and doesn't dare to speak to her at all. When he is bullied, he comes to me to "seek justice." In short, the whole journey is filled with noise and arguments!
This place's Shílǐ Pù Township is bigger than we imagined. Some houses are even located in mountain valleys, making it inconvenient to drive and even harder to find people.
Shen Qingrui had previously heard a famous Taoist from Tingxi Province mention that there was an old man surnamed Guo who was a spiritual guardian of this place, and he was very effective at warding off evil spirits.
But now, looking at this bare mountain and the yellow grass all over the ground, how can we find anything
“I thought this village, this township, would be as concentrated and dense as the south.” I looked at the desolate scene before me with a touch of helplessness.
"That's impossible!" Xiao Shanming exclaimed, quite familiar with this type of argument: "How can the north compare to the south in terms of picturesque mountains and rivers, with its extensive waterways Here, you can just find any piece of land and build a house!"
His words made us laugh. I was thinking about contacting Master Liu, after all, he has a lot of contacts in this province and could help us find out more information.
Our car crawled forward, slowly and jerkily.
A low-key sedan drove up the road ahead. I don't know much about cars, but looking at it, it seemed very understated and dignified, unlike the common models you see in the countryside.
My brother was even more puzzled. He took off his sunglasses and said with suspicion, "Where on earth did this nouveau riche come from Driving a Bentley on a country road! Even if it's an old model, wouldn't you feel bad"
"Is this car expensive"
"That's quite expensive."
"Well then, let's just step aside and avoid any trouble." My first reaction was to stay out of it.
My brother scoffs: “How could my car skills possibly get scraped!”
As soon as the words left his mouth, the tycoon's Bentley suddenly hesitated, its front end twitching like it was about to stop and start again, unsure of what it wanted to do.
But it grazed our car's front end without a hint of intention! It startled me.
"Damn it, this is a scam!" My brother angrily opened the car door.
Then, Shen Qingrui, who was driving the car behind us, also stopped. She opened the door and Xiao Shanming rushed over in a hurry, shouting: "Whoa whoa whoa, don't rush, don't rush—"Jiang Qiyun, but I have a premonition that this is a journey I must take.If Situ Lin wants to make plans, we need to disrupt his. Otherwise, if he becomes more powerful, the first people he targets wi...
