yes!
The junior brothers and sisters he had been waiting for for so long were finally here, weren't they?
Although it was a bit unexpected, it was also a surprise.
So Qian Duojin immediately showed off his status as the "eldest disciple" and welcomed Zhang Hejin in the tone of a veteran.
Lin Xi introduced them briefly, and then she didn't need to say anything. The eldest brother Qian Duojin took over the responsibility of guiding the younger brother and recounted the history of the sect with him.
Although he only has a vague understanding of it, it does not affect him from showing off in front of Zhang Hejin.
Seeing Qian Duojin describing the few times he and Lin Xi went on missions in such exaggerated detail and with such great care, and how dangerous they were, he wished that his junior fellow apprentice, Zhang Hejin, would know how much effort he had put in and how much help he had provided to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi: “…”
Never mind, as long as he's happy, Zhang Hejin should have his own ability to judge.
After Qian Duojin spoke until he felt thirsty, Lin Xi asked about his house. Qian Duojin took a sip of water and immediately said, "Master, you can trust me! Whichever of these houses you like, you can go and sign the contract now."
Because Lin Xi said that he wanted a house close to the funeral street, but there were no new houses nearby, so he could only choose a second-hand house.
Lin Xi didn't mind it either. Buying a second-hand house saved time on renovations and people could move in right away.
She gave Qian Duojin to her to look at several houses, and asked Zhang Hejin for his opinion, but he said he could live anywhere.
Qian Duojin was listening at the side, and only then did he realize that this house was actually bought by Lin Xi for Zhang Hejin to live in, and he suddenly felt a little jealous.
He hasn't even received the house Lin Xi gave him.
As if knowing what he was thinking, Lin Xi suddenly said to him, "Zhang Hejin's family gave me a piece of chicken blood stone. I plan to make a batch of jade talismans. What shape do you want the jade talismans to be? You can tell me now."
Qian Duojin blinked.
This means that he also has a copy of the jade talisman made by Lin Xi!
In other words, the leader was actually thinking about him all the time.
Qian Duojin was so moved that the sour envy he had just felt disappeared in an instant.
He said to Lin Xi happily, "Thank you, Master! Can I have a jade talisman in the shape of my zodiac sign?"
Lin Xi nodded: "Okay."
After carving and refining, that piece of bloodstone can be used to make a jade talisman at most.
Although both jade talismans and talismans made of yellow paper are talismans, their effects will be greatly different due to the different materials. One jade talisman may be equivalent to dozens of yellow talismans.
In addition to the function of exorcising evil spirits, the jade talisman itself can nourish the breath. Wearing it for a long time is no less than taking tonics every day.
With such a jade talisman on him, Qian Duojin can work hard without worrying about anything going wrong.
In fact, it is a bit of a waste to use such a jade talisman as a talisman, because the bloodstone itself has the ability to ward off evil spirits and shock evil spirits, and it is most suitable to be used as an attacking talisman or a magic weapon.
But Qian Duojin had also put in a lot of effort for Emperor Taixuanzong, so part of the bloodstone given by Zhang Hejin's family was what he deserved.
That's why Lin Xi decided to cut the bloodstone into pieces and make all of them into jade talismans. He would give Qian Duojin after making one amulet, and make the remaining pieces into attacking talismans.
Qian Duojin had no idea that Lin Xi decided to cut the bloodstone in half for his sake. He was only feeling that Lin Xi was not partial. Even though she had an apprentice, he, the eldest disciple, still had a place in her heart!
Qian Duojin liked Zhang Hejin more and more. After all, the bloodstone was produced by their family.
In order to show his friendship, Qian Duojin specially invited Zhang Hejin to have a delicious meal at noon.
After dinner, the three of them went to see a house. In the afternoon, Lin Xi decided on the house. Qian Duojin helped to handle all the subsequent procedures, so Lin Xi didn't have to worry about it anymore.
The house that Lin Xi chose was on the next street. It took less than ten minutes to get there. Seeing that it was still early, Lin Xi asked Qian Duojin to take Zhang Hejin to familiarize herself with the area while she went back to continue processing the bloodstone.
After returning to the Feng Shui shop, Lin Xi took out the bloodstone and continued to nourish it with spiritual energy.
Only after you become familiar with the spiritual energy and the bloodstone, and then use spiritual power to carve it, will the loss be reduced and the effect be multiplied.
While nourishing the bloodstone, Lin Xi was still writing the "teaching outline" with his head down.
Although Zhang Hejin is not talented in this area, he still has a lot to learn, and he needs to lay a solid foundation so that it will be easier to learn other things in the future.
So this summer, Lin Xi didn't expect Zhang Hejin to do anything else. He just needed to sense the "qi".
After roughly organizing some teaching content, Lin Xi put down the paper and pen.
Just as I was packing up, I heard strange footsteps on the street.
The footsteps were hurried, as if something urgent had happened.
Soon, a man with a serious expression appeared at the door of the Feng Shui shop.
The man was wearing white mourning cloth on his arm, which showed that someone in his family had passed away and they were probably holding a funeral.
Seeing Lin Xi, the man immediately shouted at her in horror.
"Master, please help me, I, something happened at home!"
Lin Xi's eyes quickly swept across the man's face, and he clearly saw that the area where his father's body was was dark, indicating that the deceased should be his father.
Judging from the broken lines on the man's forehead, the sunken corner of the sun, and the broken left eyebrow, his father should have died a long time ago.
From this we can see that the person who has passed away now should be his father-in-law.
When his parent passed away, he was not at home to deal with the funeral arrangements, but instead ran to the Feng Shui shop to find her.
It can be seen that the "accident" he mentioned was probably related to his relative's funeral.
Lin Xi then asked, "Did something happen at your father's funeral?"
The man's eyes widened instantly, and he became even more excited as if he had found a life-saving straw.
"Yes, Master, my mother's coffin, my mother's coffin can't be closed anymore!"
Without Lin Xi's reminder, the man told her the whole story in detail.
The man's name was Zhou Liming. A few days ago, his 70-year-old father was taking a walk outside. He suddenly fell down while walking and never got up again.
Although my father is not particularly old, the thing people fear most when they get old is falling. If it is a minor fall, they may break bones, and if it is a serious fall, they may even break a blood vessel.
Zhou Liming's relative was the latter and died on the spot after falling.
Although Zhou Liming and his family were heartbroken, they had to accept the fact and began to arrange the funeral for their father.
They live in the village, where funerals are not as strictly regulated as in the city, and they can even set up a mourning tent at home and hire a funeral procession.
Zhou Liming's father died very early, and it was his mother who raised them all, so the children decided to give their mother a grand funeral and hold a lively funeral.
After beating drums and gongs for three days, on the fourth day, everyone prepared to send the old man to the mountain where a grave had been prepared for him to be buried.
It takes about ten minutes to walk from their house to the cemetery on the mountain. It’s not far, but it’s a bit of a slope.
Early in the morning, a funeral procession set out from home. Eight young and strong men carried the coffin all the way up the mountain.
The eight men were all skilled at this job after serving in a funeral procession. Not only were they strong, but they were also familiar with all the techniques involved in carrying a coffin.
From the moment they lifted the coffin, there was no trace of difficulty on their faces, which showed that the coffin was not light for them.
When they reached the foot of the mountain, their expressions didn't change and their breathing wasn't disordered.
As a result, while climbing the mountain, one person suddenly began to feel tired and stumbled. The other people were also affected and felt that the coffins on their shoulders became extremely heavy.
