On the land of Huizhou, Shucun still looks like that.

High mountains line up on one side, like a screen, and the Jiyang River gurgling through the village. The places it passes are all whitewashed walls and black tiles, and ancient Hui-style courtyards. In the dusk, there are people washing clothes, people fetching water, and smoke curling up from cooking stoves. This village

It has stood here like this for thousands of years, and it may remain so for another thousand years.

Most people are not surprised to see an egret flying leisurely above the sky. Only the most curious children with the most dexterous eyes will be surprised to find that this egret seems a bit too big.

"Shu Cun seems to be much richer——"

"It is indeed a bit richer. In recent years, many people in the village have gone out to do business and traveled to the south of the Yangtze River, making a lot of money. But it is not all because of wealth. You look rich because the walls are new. That is because last summer and autumn

, there was another big fuss

The water was heavier than a few years ago. Many people's walls were damaged and were repainted after the autumn harvest. Some people's walls were washed away, so they took advantage of last winter's free time to build a new one. Some people's walls were washed away.

It’s also built a little bigger. It looks better than before.”

"It turns out it was rebuilt——"

Along the path of Jiyang Creek, two figures were walking.

To be honest, there are three ways.

One was wearing ordinary coarse clothes, with a dark complexion, and was holding a machete. The other was wearing a Taoist robe, with fair skin, but also carrying a hoe. The two were one behind the other, with a white fox hanging behind them.

The two chatted while walking, their tone was calm.

The white fox is full of curiosity about the new mountains and fields. When passing by a wild grass, it has to smell it. If there is a bug in the grass, it has to take a look. It has to look up at the birds flying in the sky.

My cousin is much calmer than before.

Come to think of it, in these days, the average life span of the people is not high. An ordinary man should be the head of a family in his teens, and some people have already made achievements in their twenties.

My cousin is also in his twenties.

"Is there any disaster at home?"

"Our home is at the end of the village and the terrain is high, which is a blessing. The two floods did not hurt us."

“That’s good, that’s good—..·

Lin Jue kept walking and nodded repeatedly:

"It's been two years since my cousin and cousin-in-law got married, right? Why haven't you gotten pregnant yet?"

"It must be because fate has not come yet—"

The cousin said something vague and then kept silent.

Soon we reached a field.

This is the land of the Lin family.

The cousin pulled a few vegetables from the soil nearby, cleared the weeds on the lower field ridge, and then directed Lin Jue to dig a larger gap connecting Jiyang Creek, let the water flow for a while, and complained that the field was unknown.

There is a gap or something somewhere, and water is always leaking. You have to add a little more every now and then, otherwise it will become a dry field.

Lin Jue listened and glanced around.

After letting the water sit for a while, you have to use a hoe to seal the gap.

Even Lin Zhenren, who was famous in the capital and fought against the Demon King alone, still had to do farm work when he returned to his hometown.

Going out for a trip, which looks like working, is actually a leisurely walk, but farmers are always worried about their crops and land. If the weather is good in the morning, they go out for a walk. In the evening, they have to go out to eat after eating, but they still have to walk to the fields.

When you go to your own land, you have to take a look at the crops and weeds before you feel at ease.

The two men walked back carrying sickles and hoes.

The fox jumped behind him.

But the Taoist turned his head and glanced at it.

Okay, let's plug the leaky cracks in the fields.

The fox had no choice but to stop, reach out and walk back.

Lin Jue then followed his cousin with his hoe.

This is the road he used to herd cattle.

Nowadays, the path between the fields has not changed, and the old cow is also grazing in the mountains, being watched by another young man, but the scholar of the past has changed.

Lin Jue greeted Lao Niu.

I met many villagers along the way.

Lin Jue also greeted them.

Naturally, I heard them whispering behind me.

"Is this the one from the Lin family?"

"Yes! I heard that after he left home, he practiced Taoism and became an immortal. Now in the capital, many high officials treat him like a god. They can't even see him. Even the emperor has to support him!"

"A few years ago in the village, the boy from the master's family bumped into an evil god and couldn't get rid of it. Wasn't he the evil god who was invited to get rid of him? Even the gods were killed by him!"

"I heard that when he left home, he said he wanted to study. In fact, he did not go to an academy, but went to a mountain to practice Taoism.

Now I am almost becoming an immortal."

"It is said that he can summon heavenly soldiers and generals...

"It said that the heads of the village are discussing whether we should erect a statue of him in Sangu Temple and give him a side hall to sit in."

"How come the gods still carry the hoe——"

"Isn't that immortality?"

"Don't tell me! In order to treat his uncle's illness, he dared to spend the night in the Wang family's ancestral hall in Hengcun. Not only did he stay all night without any trouble, but the Wang family in Hengcun also brought fish and wine the next night.

When I came to thank him, I knew then that this man must be extraordinary!"

"I heard that when Uncle Shu and his friends went out on business, when they encountered demons and ghosts, they all reported the name of 'Zhenren Lin', and it worked very well!"

Suddenly, I saw a courtyard, and there was someone standing and looking at the door.

It has the same white walls and black tiles, a tall horse-head wall, the wall tiles are very new, and a tree was planted in the yard inside.

Compared to the original appearance, it is much better.

The cousin-in-law stood at the door and angrily accused her cousin:

"The New Year is not over yet, what kind of work are you going to do? Don't you know how to make plans in advance? Besides, my uncle has just come back.

You brought your brother-in-law with you and let the villagers see the joke!"

The cousin was honest and didn't answer.

He didn't know how to answer, and he also felt that his wife was right.

"Brother, come in and sit down. Just give me the hoe." When my cousin looked at Lin Jue again, she had already put on a smile. "You're welcome, cousin. This is how my cousin and I have been together since we were young."

Lin Jue said to his cousin-in-law.

When the cousin heard this sentence, he seemed to know how to answer, so he turned around and added:

"Why not?"

Lin Jue walked into the house with a smile.

The fox also jumped up and caught up, telling Lin Jue happily with body language that he had repaired the field.

This cousin-in-law is a very good girl, gentle and kind, smart in housekeeping, and polite to others. She comes from the Wang family in Hengcun. She is related to Mr. Wang of the Wang family. I wrote to Mr. Wang before and was tactful. He mentioned that if the descendant of the Wang family who is an official in the court is in trouble, he can come to him if he is in the capital.

It is difficult to say whether the friendship between Lin Jue and Mr. Wang was involved in the Wang family's decision to marry their children here.

In short, this cousin-in-law was very polite to Lin Jue.

He was so polite that he even seemed a little respectful.

Lin Jue could tell that her cousin-in-law didn't have much on her mind. She did this purely out of goodwill, and her thoughts were understandable. There were rumors that her uncle had become a Taoist and became an immortal. Although he did not admit it himself, he had been in the capital in recent years. The reputation, status and rumors of slaying demons cannot always be false. How can such a brother-in-law be allowed to work when he returns to his hometown? How can relatives not be treated politely when they come all the way from the capital?

It's just that she forgot something.

Whether it's uncle, aunt, or cousin, Lin Jue knew them before her, and lived in this family before her.

He just left later.

No wonder she is.

Fortunately, Lin Jue and his uncle, aunt, and cousins ​​still have family ties as a barrier and shared memories as a basis. Therefore, the name "Lin Zhenren" cannot make much difference in their relationship mode for the time being. changes.

At least for the time being.

Lin Jue stayed at home for three days.

After three days, it was time to leave.

"Nowadays, the atmosphere in the world is getting worse and worse, and it is becoming more and more uneasy. Just like the houses in the village a few months ago,

Only reconstruction can bring about a new atmosphere. I'm afraid small chaos in various places will begin soon, and great chaos in the world will only happen in the past few years. Cousin, please remember, don't go out to do business, just farm at home and live your life well. May you live in peace."

Lin Jue warned them and looked at his cousin-in-law:

"There is a Sangu temple in the village. The three aunts are all very virtuous gods. Moreover, Yili Zhenjun, the Emperor of Yujian, once promised me that he would send divine soldiers and generals to protect Shucun within a hundred years. During these hundred years, No matter how chaotic the world is, no matter how rampant the demons are outside, Shucun will always be peaceful."

Hearing this sentence, several people were surprised.

That is Emperor Yujian, Lord Yili.

This is the dojo of Southern Emperor Yujian. Everyone knows the names of Emperor Yujian and Zhenjun Yili.

Many people even worship Emperor Yujian first and then worship Tianweng when offering incense.

These two are the gods they have just worshiped!

The uncle and aunt looked at each other without making a sound.

The cousin-in-law opened her eyes blankly.

Only my cousin followed his heart and asked:

"Are you really an immortal?"

"I haven't yet." Lin Jue replied truthfully, taking out a few small bottles from the cloth bag and handing them to them, "This white bottle is the same as last year. It is the spiritual liquid of heaven and earth. One drop per day. Mix it with water and drink it. After opening it,

Drink it quickly, otherwise the spiritual charm will fade away. Don’t dare to hold it back and be reluctant to drink it. My friend has passed away, and it will be difficult to have such a gentle spiritual liquid of heaven and earth again in the future.”

The uncle and aunt stretched out their hands to take it.

"This is a heart-protecting pill. If your cousin is accidentally fascinated by a ghost while walking outside, you can wake up again by eating one pill. "This is a golden light pill. If you eat it, you can protect your body with golden light and protect yourself from ghosts.

"There are only three pills of both of these, because the elixir contains gold and stones, so you can't eat them unless absolutely necessary.

After taking one pill, it will take at least half a year before taking the second pill. It should also be stored properly to avoid being discovered by children at home and accidentally swallowing it.

"This is the Spin Turtle Pill. There are only two pills. Taking it can cure deafness and eyesight. Uncles and aunts can wait until they are older before taking it. It is best to drink it with strong alcohol to avoid gold and stone poisoning.

"This is Shu Lu Dan—

"It's still two pills, haha. Taking them can cure infertility."

Lin Jue laughed and looked at his cousins: "I don't know which of you is the problem, so please take one pill each. This medicine is mild and does not contain gold or stone. Just swallow it."

When the cousins ​​heard this, they were both surprised and ashamed. They all blushed and took the elixir bottle again.

"The world is about to be in chaos. Please be cautious and protect yourself as the first priority." Lin Jue said, "I left. I don't know when I will come back next time."

"You should take care of yourself too!"

"Stop fighting those monsters!"

The uncle and aunt got up quickly, very reluctant to leave.

My cousin wanted to say goodbye, but he was so stupid.

However, my cousin-in-law was eager to take care of the family and quickly said, "If my uncle becomes an immortal, he will protect my family's descendants!"

Lin Jue felt comfortable for a while and then nodded:

"must-.-."

Then he went out and called for the egret.

With many emotions in my heart, I followed him on the egret and ascended to the sky. In the village below, there were people actually worshiping him as a god.

The Taoist stared down, feeling lost.
Chapter completed!
