The crowd raised their glasses to celebrate, and Lee Seung-jae, who was wearing a colorful scarf, was in high spirits, but Li Xixuan was still staring back and forth, counting the number of guests.
"Chen's and An's didn't send anyone... It's understandable... Li Cheng? , Li Chengpan's two families didn't even say hello... There are few weighty guests in the main vein..."
Li Xixuan looked at it heavily, there was not much surprise, but the fluke in his heart was dispersed, coming in from the noisy outer courtyard of the bright hall, the lobby inside was pitch black, and several children were squatting in the corner, Li Xixuan raised his white and fat hand and said in a low voice:
"Call the third child back for me!"
Not long after, Lee Seung-jae, who was wearing a colorful scarf, entered the yard angrily, and faced his father with a gloomy expression, he persuaded:
「… I've already asked... Receive? It was sent to the dense forest by the old man, and the contractor was on the side of Zhou Luo, so it is reasonable that he couldn't come... Why should my father put on a face... Everyone doesn't look good."
Li Xixuan glanced at him and scolded:
"What do you know... Although I have never practiced Taoism, I can't recognize what kind of fire was in the sky that day, but several monks said that the eldest son Li Jiangqian broke through the customs... Li Zhouluo is harmonious, he may not be!"
Lee Seung-jae frowned, and said to his father:
"My East Mansion is the most embarrassing, and this time I have to take the lead... The people who made the first move gave in, and the people divided the interests cleanly, dispersed like the wind, leaving the first bird to be slaughtered... The next one doesn't dare to come now..."
Lee Seung-jae grew up in the house and relied on this father for everything, so he panicked when he heard it and asked:
"Huh? What is the reasoning behind this... Qingdu who went with us at the beginning, and the shade was also obtained, but now we are left alone, who will be able to stand up in the future?"
Li Xixuan only said:
"You say it easily, those above want to suppress you, there are countless excuses, there are always excuses to make both ends comfortable, so they catch us to fight, and the ones who have always been in the lead are the ones who fight.
Lee Seung-jae nodded repeatedly, but Lee Hee-hyun frowned and replied:
"There was a little bit of something to say before, because the clan members were thinking about shade, and it was biased towards us, but now that the shade has passed, it means that the phoenix has plucked its feathers, it is nothing, but fortunately, there was a plan in advance...... The merits and virtues of several children are real, and there is not much water."
"You don't need to do much in this matter, just be honest, none of you can fight, only rely on the majesty of the Ming Palace to keep a low profile, I will go to the palace to apologize later, everything is aimed at me, the old man, at most I will suffer, and I will not worry about my life even if I stand up to the sky."
Lee Seung-jae hesitated and said:
"Right now, all families are celebrating, and my father is going to the mountain... It's out of place... There is no light on our faces, let alone why do things look like we did something wrong? This little shade... Compared with other families, it can't be less......"
Li Xixuan straightened his face and asked:
"Why is it out of place? At present, Li Zhouluo is still in power, and Li Jiangqian has just left the customs. Wait for Li Jiangqian's knife to stab him before leaving? As soon as he lets go now, Li Jiangqian will be restrained by us in the future!"
"Oh......"
Lee Seung-jae was suspicious and replied:
"The eldest son... want to re-enter the continent?"
Li Xixuan laughed angrily, and this next sentence didn't respond to him, he shook his head, flicked his sleeves and went out.
The front yard was full of guests, he had to step over the threshold of the backyard and go out through the back door, the morning mist was still a little cold, Li Xixuan had to hug his sleeves tightly, and his white fat face was a little indifferent:
'Fighting for the east and west, there is no appreciation on the left and right, shading this and that, how many can become tools in the end? Only Ming Gong has cultivated immortality in the East Mansion, and the old man counts his days to live, so he can only help to this point...'
Li Xixuan is the most urgent among so many clan elders, it is really too few monks to complete this group!
Also after Li Xuanxuan, the other end Li Cheng? In front of the Yuandu West Mansion, there are Li Zhoufang and Li Zhouyang, behind are Li Xinghan and Li Xingsai, and there is also a purple smoke Li Que Yi below.
The West Mansion is divided into several rooms, and the leading brother Li Zhoufang is also a monk, so it is much more convenient to work hard for shade or find some positions outside... Every time a clan member is arranged to go out, the future is a way, and the more arrangements are made, the easier it will be.
But if the descendants can't practice, even their minds are not satisfactory, how can Li Xixuan not be frustrated!
He shrank in his robe in the cold wind of the morning, his whole body was cold, his steps were floating, although the streets were full of music, his heart was infinitely sad.
The road from the East Mansion to the palace is not far, but the main hall is high, and it is really a sweaty road for mortals.
There are many coachmen and messengers in the continent, but these are undignified, and most of the direct descendants are unwilling to do it unless they are cornered.
He got into the sedan chair, and then it became a little warmer, and he woke up staggeringly, and after an unknown amount of time, it gradually became hot and hot, and he heard the shouting outside:
"Master! The place has arrived!"
Li Xixuan lifted the curtain and took a look, and sure enough, he saw a large towering palace, and then he got out of the sedan chair, he was old, his waist and legs were inconvenient, he only stretched his feet to get out of the car, but he never thought about getting cold in his waist.
He stood still on the ground, let out a long breath, raised his eyebrows to look, and saw a pair of black boots without any decorations.
The gold-rimmed robe fluttered slightly in the wind, and when he raised his eyes slightly, he saw that his face was white and his eyebrows were slightly longer.
Under the black eyebrows were a pair of golden eyes, looking at him with a smile.
Li Xixuan's breath was choked, and his heart suddenly tightened:
"The eldest son?"
Li Jiangqian was tall and thin, much taller than the old man, and his black hair was still burning with apricot-yellow flames, shining slightly, he helped Li Xixuan well, kindly squeezed the white fat hand into his hand, and said with a smile:
"What a coincidence, I can still meet an old man here... Is this box coming...?"
Li Xixuan was chilled by him, he didn't even sit in a sedan chair when he went out, he sneaked out through the small door, just to suddenly go to the palace to catch him off guard, how could he tell him? The expression on his face was barely maintained, and he smiled:
"The matter of shading has been announced, this is to meet the head of the family and thank him for his kindness..."
"Oh!"
Li Jiangqian shook his head and smiled as he walked to the hall with him:
"The old man is polite, although the younger generation has practiced for a few years, he still has to learn this kung fu from the old man! I also thought that these people were more well-behaved than the other when they were inspected, and they would definitely be swaggering and enjoying themselves after getting the shade... Looking at the old man now, it is really the same as what he said and done, the clansmen of the East Mansion have an old man to teach, they are really lucky, right?"
Li Jiangqian has always spoken nicely, but Li Xixuan didn't know what medicine he was selling in the gourd, his scalp was numb, he just wanted to go to the palace quickly, his pace was a little faster, and seeing that the palace gate was already in front of him, he replied:
"Yes..."
Li Jiangqian nodded with a smile and said:
"The junior only thought about this, and discussed it with the head of the family early in the morning, this shaded tribesman... If the old and young of the same lineage make a mistake, this shade must be hung up first, and then considered and thought again, so as not to be fished in troubled waters!"
"Ah......"
Li Xixuan was struck by lightning and stayed in place for a second, almost stopping in place.
What is he Li Xixuan here for? Sorry! Li Jiangqian said a word, as long as he apologized, the shade of the whole family would be lost!
He stood stunned for a long time, quickly organized his words in his heart, and then spoke:
"This... It's too harsh... After all, who doesn't have a ......?"
Li Jiangqian sighed and shook his head, interrupting:
"The old man's heart is too soft! How can this be considered harsh? Dongdi naturally won't make mistakes... The elderly don't have to think about other pulses... Yo... Di Liguang is here... My lord, please!"
Li Jiangqian was stuck in time, and interrupted him at the palace gate, and before the other party could respond, he saluted and rose into the sky in apricot yellow color.
"My lord, the head of the family is receiving the purple smoke monk, what is the important matter?"
Li Xixuan took two deep breaths, bowed his hands gently, and retreated without saying a word, all the way to the audience, the old man noticed something was wrong and thought:
"Such a big matter has been decided like this? There is no wind on the continent? I was scared by this kid!"
He was about to turn around when he became afraid:
"No... No... Since that's the case... When the time comes, I will voluntarily apologize, abandoning the shadow of my descendants to protect the discipline of the clan, and I have to be hated to death......"
Li Xixuan's limbs were cold, he shivered for a while, and thought:
"I can't solve it... I can't solve it... The Ming Palace doesn't leave the customs, if you don't want to be tossed to death by this kid... I can only go and ask the old man!"
……
There was a commotion outside the hall, but Li Zhouluo's inner hall was very quiet, Cui Jueyin was standing in the middle of the hall, slightly sideways, clasped his hands, and said to the top:
"Master Zhen, this is Fairy Wei... This is Daoist Cao."
"I've seen the head of the family."
The two saluted slightly, and Li Zhouluo immediately replied:
"I have seen two immortal chiefs."
The Purple Smoke Sect sent to replace Tinglan's confidant Wei Danying, wearing a yellow feather coat, looking a little embarrassed, while Daoist Cao was strong, full of black beard, holding a child in his hand, born thin, eight or nine years old.
This is obviously to deal with the romance of Daoist Cao Dao, Cao Chu is at ease, just looking at his face is a bold one, the fist he clenched is the size of a vinegar bowl, the sky light flows on his clothes, Ding Mu's thin hand can only hold his fingers, Cao Chu's voice is low:
"I like this child very much, so I will trouble you to cut off your love on the lake."
Who does he like tightly, several people know very well, Wei Danying said hesitantly:
"The matter of Cao Chu Daoist... Presumably the head of the family also knows, since he has the heart to accept apprentices and follows the rules of Ziyan, I will come forward to ask the head of the family... Take his family over then."
The relationship between Wei Danying and Cao Chu was obviously not very familiar, and the female cultivator also knew that the matter was not very glorious, so she asked vaguely, Li Zhouluo couldn't tell her to get off the stage, and nodded and said:
"It is a blessing for this child to be included in the mountain gate by Ziyan, and the lake will also buy him a copy of his future food, and his family can go there together, don't worry!"
"Okay!"
Cao Chu looked very happy, bowed his hands, and smiled, he had a big voice again, this sound was very loud, Wei Danying was a little ashamed, and hurriedly said:
"Cao Daoyou, go down first..."
Cao Chu didn't hesitate, he happily bowed his hands, and simply went down, the thin Ding Mu didn't say a word, he was held in his hand and walked in two steps and one step, so dry that he was like a puppet, but there was a smile on his face.
Li Zhouluo looked at the master and apprentice going down, frowning slightly, Wei Danying breathed a sigh of relief, raised her eyebrows and smiled:
"This matter is embarrassing for the head of the family... Cao Chu is also out of tune in the sect, and it is not easy for the cultivators in his peak to go on weekdays, but fortunately, he only plays with his wives and concubines, and his conduct is passable..."
Li Zhouluo also saw the brilliance of Cao Chu's mana earlier, and he was equally embarrassed in his heart:
"How did this Cao Chu cultivate Mingyang... Oh... He should also cultivate Mingyang...'
The two tacitly skipped the topic and said, Wei Danying's face was a little gloomy, and he said:
"In the past few years, Changxiao and Hengzhu have fought fiercely in the waters of Qingzhou, and Changxiaomen has suffered a lot of losses, which is a good thing.
"But something happened in the East China Sea, and Wen Wu had to be transferred. It's very bad, the leyline of my Purple Smoke Gate is shaking, and the earth fire lava is leaking out, it is said that it is bright and can be seen for thousands of miles......"
"The dragons in the sea have all come to the sea, and I heard that the seabed is on fire, living beings are devastated, and many demons and humans have died."
Seeing Wei Danying's demeanor, this time the damage was not trivial, after all, the earth veins and fire veins changed together, and in the sea, the water veins were probably not able to escape.
Li Zhouluo's expression was heavy and he said in a low voice:
"Have you found out ......?"
Wei Danying was slightly depressed and replied:
"Either it is a Purple Mansion monk with extremely high soil virtue, or it is really a change in the leyline and suffers an unwarranted disaster, in short... Not only have the real people in the sect already gone, but the cultivators have also gone to the East China Sea to garrison ......."
"The cultivators are mobilized, the nobles will inevitably have fewer manpower here, if the speed slows down, please don't blame me."
Li Zhouluo nodded heavily, signaling that he understood, Ziyanmen told himself that there was a reason for this, and his own formation was not in a hurry, so he said softly:
"It's okay, it's best for Ziyan to take care of his own affairs first."
Wei Danying took his leave and went out of the palace, Li Zhouluo sent him all the way, heading north, Li Zhouluo observed the route, Wei Danying probably went to Xuanmiaoguan.
"Su Mian Zhenren Treasure Earth Dao System, Earth Virtue Monk, has a lot of research on the earth veins, it seems that he should take action."
