Some people can be controlled.

Some people can't.

At the reception banquet prepared by Cui Min for him, Zhang Heng only drank a few glasses of fruit wine.

But he has said everything that needs to be said, and the rest depends on how the Cui family will act.

He felt that there should be no fools in this world, especially the overlords like the Cui family. No matter what the people below were like, the top members would never be fools.

He admitted that he was a fool.

If there is no butcher Zhang, we have to eat pigs with hair on them?

The most important thing for a sect is balance.

We will not let one family dominate.

The Cui family is the top power in the Immortal Sect, but it is not the only one.

In 2000, the world entered an era of catastrophe.

According to Zhang Heng's understanding during this period, when the Catastrophic Era came, eight major forces formed an alliance and jointly occupied the Yaochi Immortal Mansion. This is the origin of the Yaochi Immortal Mansion.

One of them is the Cui family, who was originally a leader in the local pharmaceutical industry.

The other seven companies are also leaders in all walks of life.

Now two thousand years have passed. After a series of changes and wars, the eight major forces of the past are now left with five families, that is, the five major families.

Among them, the most powerful ones were the local officials during the disaster.

By the way, it's not called official now, it's called the sect leader's lineage.

For Zhang Heng.

The Cui family is not the only choice.

Just like the college entrance examination.

The Cui family is from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in addition to Tsinghua University, Peking University, Fudan University, and University of Science and Technology of China.

He is the top scorer in the college entrance examination and the one who holds the initiative.

"how do you feel?"

After coming out of Cui Min's cave, Zhang Heng accompanied the eldest lady and walked by the lake.

"It's incredible."

Zhang Yitong sighed with a look on his face: "I never thought that the several major families and sect leaders who control the Immortal Sect originally came from this way."

Hear this.

Zhang Heng chuckled and said: "How else could it happen? The era of catastrophe has come, and the planet has expanded outward a thousand times or ten thousand times. In the past, China was said to have only more than 9 million square kilometers, but after the catastrophe, a county's growth rate increased

It’s tens of millions of square kilometers.”

"Take the Yaochi Immortal Mansion as an example. This place is called the Yaochi Domain, and its area is close to the total area of ​​the planet before the disaster."

"Before the disaster, this was just a provincial city."

"Big families like the Cui family are just some of the leading companies in the city."

"After the disaster struck, these leading companies with tens of thousands of employees quickly formed alliances with the help of various materials and their own size to share the benefits together."

"So there are various fairy gates and holy places formed around the secret realm that we are familiar with."

Zhang Heng shrugged.

"Before leaving, Cui Min invited me to go to Chuan Gong Pavilion tomorrow to select the secret method of golden elixir. What do you think?"

Zhang Yitong actually has a good impression of Cui Min.

Back then, everyone came in a flying boat. When they first arrived at the sect, because of Cui Min's presence, they had never been bullied.

Now that Cui Min wants to have a good relationship with her, Zhang Yitong feels that he can go along with the situation.

"Go ahead, the Cui family tree has deep roots and has a strong say in the Immortal Sect."

"I don't care. As an alchemist, I don't have to go on a war mission."

"If you can't do it, you will have to leave the sect sooner or later and go to fight against the Holy Land of Maitreya."

"On weekdays, walk more with the Cui family children. For my sake, those people will take better care of you."

Zhang Heng added another sentence at this point: "When you have chosen the golden elixir secret method, we will ask for leave and go back. Inner disciples have family leave, so if you don't use it, it will be in vain, and the old grandmother is old, according to my estimation.

..”

He didn't say anything else.

Birth, old age, illness and death are natural for human beings. My grandmother is an ordinary person and she is almost eighty years old this year.

In addition, he had been worrying about so many things in recent years. Before leaving, Zhang Heng realized that his old grandmother was about to expire.

Three more years have passed now.

If I don't go back and take a look, I'm afraid I won't even see him for the last time.

"It's been three years, it's time to go back and take a look."

Zhang Yitong looked sad.

the next day.

Zhang Heng was refining elixirs in the cave.

Zhang Yitong followed Cui Min to Chuan Gong Pavilion and selected two secret techniques that could be practiced in the Golden Core realm.

A few more days followed.

After taking care of the matters at hand, the two went to the sect to ask for family leave and took a flying boat back.

A few years apart.

The old grandmother looked older and older.

When Zhang Heng and others returned, she was cleaning the vegetable garden.

Talk about it.

Although the sun has set on the Zhang family, they still have some fields.

The old grandmother was too old to farm the land herself, so she rented it out so that she could get some for chewing every year.

"Why are you back?"

Seeing Zhang Heng and the two returning.

The old grandmother was first happy and then surprised, and asked with some trepidation: "Were you not driven back by the sect?"

Zhang Yitong was a little bit dumbfounded.

However, she also knew that the old grandmother had high hopes for them, hoping that they could succeed in the fairy sect.

Seeing that the old grandmother was a little restless, she quickly explained: "Grandma, Zhang Heng and I have practiced hard and are now disciples of the inner sect. This time we came back because the sect granted us family leave."

After saying that, he handed over the two waist badges representing the identity of the inner disciples.

"Inner disciple!"

See the waistband.

The old grandmother felt relieved.

In the past few years, Zhang Yitong has occasionally written to her, saying how he was doing and so on.

But how much can you believe this kind of thing?

Grandma is someone who has been here before and knows what it means to report good news but not bad news.

Zhang Yitong said, she would listen.

Whether that's the case or not, who knows.

Xiao Chunzi, who lives next door, also said that she was enjoying the hot food outside, but what happened? She didn't come back after being away for several years, and she finally came home once. I heard from Aunt Li on the front street that all her clothes were rented.

"Grandma, Zhang Heng and I have discussed this."

Zhang Yitong didn't know what the old grandmother was thinking, so he said happily: "We have another idea when we come back this time. There are some satellite cities around Xianmen. Not only are they very close to Xianmen, the living conditions are also very good."

"We are discussing buying a farm nearby, and adding a few servants to bring you there to enjoy your happiness. You see..."

"Qingfu?"

The old grandmother heard it.

He was happy, but he had no intention of leaving with the two of them. He refused: "Grandma, I am seventy-eight this year. How many days can I live? These neighbors are all my friends. I go out to chat with people every day.

Playing cards makes me live a relatively comfortable life."

"If we go to Yaochi, which way should the door of Yaochi open?"

Sighing: "I'm not being hypocritical, it's really hard to leave my homeland. I just want to be buried in the Zhang family's ancestral grave after my death, and I won't care about anyone else."
