According to Tang Shuya, Lu Kexing saved her life nearly fifty years ago.
After a few interactions, the two got to know each other.
Lu Qing originally thought that the two of them would have some romantic relationship, but after listening carefully, he found that their relationship should be similar to that of brother and sister.
Tang Shuya lives in the south of the city. She has a very large yard with a lot of fields and many tenant farmers.
He is a big landowner.
Her husband had passed away long ago, and now the head of the family is her eldest son Yang Jin.
She gave birth to four children in total, and including grandchildren, there are nearly seventeen people in her family.
Although the Yang family is a landlord family, it is at most a second-rate force in Bei'an City.
The main reason is that Tang Shuya is unwilling to be involved in the power struggle in Bei'an City again.
Even though she is a cultivator.
After all these years, she has finally come to believe the saying "Peace and safety are the greatest happiness".
Yang Family Compound.
Tang Shuya's house is located in the northwest corner of the courtyard. It can be regarded as an independent "courtyard within a courtyard". The whole house is divided into several rooms. The outermost one is the living room for guests.
The furniture in the house looks very exquisite, and most of them are made of precious solid wood.
The decorations are all high-end items such as coral, ceramics, calligraphy and paintings.
Two maids brought tea and snacks. Judging from their movements and steps, they obviously followed a special set of etiquette.
Tang Shuya was very talkative, leaving Lu Qing with almost no room to interrupt.
This is probably a common problem among older people.
Through Tang Shuya, Lu Qing also knew that although Bei'an City seemed calm, in fact, there were clouds and turmoil in secret and a storm was about to come.
The key point of the problem is still the caravan from Dongxing City.
Dongxing City is a coastal city located nearly 4,000 miles southeast of Bei'an City.
It is much larger than Bei'an City, with a population of nearly one million.
From Tang Shuya, Lu Qing got a different perspective on the Dongxing City caravan from Liu He and Wang Fu.
Apart from the City Lord's Mansion and those forces ready to make moves, other families, forces, and civilians in Bei'an City only hope to live a stable life.
I get paid for my work, eat well and sleep well every day.
They are satisfied.
So they have been extra careful these days, hoping not to be involved in this storm.
"I can't be mistaken in sensing the aura of that evil cultivator. I'm afraid the caravan has already sent people in. You should be careful these days and don't get involved! If they find out you're a cultivator, they might force you to take sides. If you have nothing to do these days, why don't you stay at Aunt Tang's house and make plans after the storm is over?"
Lu Qing wanted to refuse, so she said directly: "Aunt Tang, actually, I am the leader of Cangxia Sect. I can go back to the mountains at night, so I won't..."
Who knew that Tang Shuya would burst out laughing.
"Sect Master of the Second Qi Refining Stage? So you've known Mr. Liu for a long time? Damn! Aunt Tang even said she'd introduce you to someone, but this is just a joke! Tell Aunt Tang, is your Cangxia Sect just a decoy orchestrated by Wang Fu?"
Suspected troops?
What the hell?
Seeing Lu Qing's expression still unresponsive, Tang Shuya continued, "Those green-clothed people strolling the streets are all ordinary mortals. The claimed great cultivators have never shown their faces in the four major families. Wang Fu wants to recruit soldiers, so where did the soldiers go? They just became those green-clothed people! Tell me, isn't this just a decoy or something else?"
Lu Qing thought for a moment and said, "There is a teleportation array at the west gate."
There is such a supernatural existence as a teleportation array, it can't be faked, right?
"I know that place. It's said to be so magical, but in the end it's only for you Cangxia Sect members to use. It's an illusion, right?"
Lu Qing suddenly didn't know what to say.
After all, he was really only at the second level of Qi Refining.
He didn't bring the Lianqing Sword, and his Qinglu Immortal Robe was draped on a chair at home.
No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like the leader of a sect.
Lu Qing even had the urge to take Tang Shuya on a trip back and forth. But after thinking about it, he still felt that this behavior was a bit inappropriate and gave up the explanation.
There should be a chance to prove it later.
"Tonight, just listen to Aunt Tang and stay in the west wing. It's not far from here."
"If you have any questions about cultivation, you can come and ask Aunt Tang."
…
"Master, Grandma, it's time to meet the guests."
The maid who had brought the tea and snacks earlier was now standing beside Yang Jin, reporting in a low voice.
"Meeting guests?" Yang Jin frowned and thought, then asked, "Meeting what guests?"
"A young man, quite handsome, the grandmother let him stay in the west wing."
"I understand. Go ahead." Yang Jin dismissed the maid, walked to the window, and looked at the green plants outside.
Tang Shuya has always lived in seclusion, so how could she meet guests?
What's more, this guest is still a young man...
Yang Jin knew that his mother was a cultivator at the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Her guests could naturally be immortal cultivators!
However, in Bei'an City, among the immortal cultivators Yang Jin knew, there was not a single one who could match the description of "handsome young man".
Could it be that this is a cultivator from outside?
Yang Jin was shocked and immediately thought of a possibility.
Could it be that my mother was planning to do something at this critical juncture?
Although Tang Shuya had no interest in worldly affairs, her four brothers and sisters did! However, the blood ties between the four of them were thicker than water, but they still couldn't withstand the grudges of interests.
In front of Tang Shuya, they would restrain themselves and act like brothers tacitly.
But privately, the four of them could be considered to be in a rivalry! They even associated with different forces!
"Could it be... that my mother has discovered my actions and is planning to appoint someone else as the head of the family?" Yang Jin was shocked and quickly looked for reasons to deny this possibility.
"No, we have to go and find out the truth..." Yang Jin called people in and prepared to do something.
In the Yang family compound, the other three people were doing roughly the same thing.
The sudden guest that their mother invited back made them nervous.
…
At this time, in the Ningqing Mountains.
Cheng Yi returned to the sect carrying a sack of spirit stones.
I searched everywhere but couldn't find the sect leader.
He wanted to leave the spirit stones at the sect leader's house, but was worried that it would delay Lu Qing's affairs.
The most important thing is that he is afraid that these spirit stones will be taken away by his disciples.
After all, when he was returning to the mountain, the disciples looked at him with shining eyes.
It goes without saying what the function of the NPC carrying a sack is and what is in the sack.
For example, the treasure goblins in Diablo 3 and the treasure dinks in Borderlands have similar designs.
"Forget it, Sect Master Lu must be busy with something. When he is free, he will definitely take the initiative to find me!" Thinking of this, Cheng Yi put the sack in his room and turned around to cook.
