The car parked in a special open space within the wall, and everyone walked into Lin's Village.

A group of people welcomed them inside, where antique wooden cabins and attics were built.

This is not what Xu Ran imagined.

The flowers, trees, farmland and ditches nearby make it feel like a paradise.

Xu Ran and several friends were fascinated by it and exclaimed: "This is so beautiful!"

She thought it would be mud houses one by one.

This exquisite cabin and the scenery outside made her feel like she was in a tourist destination.

The old patriarch responded with a smile, "Thanks to my uncle's long-term funding plan, otherwise we would never have such a good life."

The old man had a kind face and looked gratefully at Lin Han who was walking beside him.

Lin Han's face was expressionless, "You are the leader of the clan and you manage it well."

Otherwise, how could the stone streets be kept so clean? Without qualified managers, others might litter the streets.

Xu Ran and the others followed the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd and arrived at the place where the patriarch was hosting a banquet.

The aunt next to me has already served a table full of dishes, including fish, meat, and vegetables.

"Everyone, please take a seat. You must be hungry after a long journey. You're welcome to eat."

Song Qiang looked at the dishes on the table. Several of them were meat from spiritual beasts. This Lin family was quite generous.

Everyone was no longer polite. After a long day of driving, I was really hungry.

He ate happily.

It's really delicious.

After the meal, the sun began to set. The patriarch asked the 50-year-old man to receive them and said that there would be a bonfire party in the evening.

Then he invited Lin Han into a room privately.

Lin Han was sitting on a grand master's chair when he heard the old patriarch cough a few times and let out a long sigh.

"Alas! I haven't been feeling well lately. Ahem, uncle, you'd better take over the position of clan leader!"

He has been working as a cow and horse for more than 20 years, and he doesn't want to do it anymore.

Seeing Lin Han coming back, he just returned the position of clan leader to him.

Before the old clan leader died, he had originally passed the throne directly to his only son, but Lin Han was still very young at that time, so he could only act as the clan leader.

Later, when Lin Han was older, he prioritized his studies and asked him to continue to take care of him. Finally, he survived until he graduated. As a result, he was recruited by the Special Spiritual Power Bureau and went to the Imperial Capital. He really couldn't bear it anymore.

In fact, he is only 70 years old this year, but he works hard all day long. Others say that he has aged very quickly in recent years, and he looks almost 80 years old.

It’s not just the vicissitudes of life brought about by the patriarch’s complicated affairs and hard work.

When will this kind of day that comes and goes all year round and come and go at any time come to an end!

The corners of Lin Han's eyes twitched a few times, and here it comes again!

If his apprentice hadn't needed to come back here to become a disciple, he would never have come back.

As soon as he came back, the old man began to pretend to be ill and wanted to give the position back to him.

Why did his father die back then?

Not too exhausted!

Being a clan leader is a thankless task. You have to deal with small things like chickens and ducks in one day, as well as all the big and small things in the clan.

Lin Han's expression was serious and he looked embarrassed, "I can't get away now, how about you ask Lin Wei to help share the burden, train your grandson as the next generation patriarch, and let him take over your position."

The old patriarch waved his hands repeatedly, "That's not okay, that's absolutely not okay. My grandson is only 12 years old now, and the position of patriarch is yours, and I have to give it back to you."

He absolutely cannot let his grandson be trapped in this place and continue to do this hard work.

Absolutely not.

However, he thought of his cousin, "Lin Wei...I don't know if he is willing?"

Cousin! You're the only one left. I've been carrying the courage for 25 years. You shouldn't blame me, right?

Lin Wei, who was walking on the road and introducing the surrounding buildings to Xu Ran and the others, sneezed, "Ah!" Who is thinking of me?

Xu Ran glanced at the 50-year-old man who came to pick them up, and thought: No way, right? Can you catch a cold even if you wear a long cloak on a hot day?

Lin Wei said to Xu Ran: "Miss Xu, the bonfire party will be held there later, and your apprenticeship ceremony will be held tomorrow. I will let Xiao Cuihui tell you what you need to prepare."

"alright, thank you very much!"

Soon night fell and a full moon rose. Xu Ran had to sigh, "The moon here is more beautiful than ours."

It's big and bright, and you can see it very clearly, not blocked by clouds at all.

Nie Chengjing: "Indeed, and the spiritual energy here is also very strong. It is a good place to retire."

"Ah? Have you started thinking about retirement?"

Xu Ran looked amazed. Didn't I just sell you a longevity fruit? Shouldn't making money be considered when growing up?

Nie Chengjing smiled helplessly, "Can't young people live a retirement life in advance?"

Luo Xue pursed her lips and answered from the side: "Are you almost 40? You don't count as one of our young people."

Even though Nie Chengjing looked about 32 years old, she remembered that he was already 3 years old when she accidentally peeked at his information three years ago.

still young?

Nie Chengjing narrowed his eyes dangerously at Luo Xue, "You remembered it wrong."

Luo Xue suddenly felt the hairs all over her body stand on end. She quickly hid next to Xu Ran and said harshly: "I have a good memory. Old men should not live in the illusion that they are still young every day. They will get lost."

Nie Chengjing gritted his teeth and stared at her with an evil smile. Very good!

Xu Ran:......

Just as the two were in a stalemate, a bonfire was suddenly lit next to them. A group of people wearing white floor-length cloaks began to dance around the bonfire with long white cloth strips.

Oh no, it's a welcome ceremony.

Seeing this moment, Xu Ran didn't know how to express it.

Are you sure this is not to express condolences to your loved ones?

Song Qiang touched his chin and thought deeply, "We also organize funerals in this way, but they are surrounded by coffins."

Luo Xue: "Okay, brother, stop talking! We all understand."

If anyone heard it, they would be angry.

At this time, two 18-year-old girls with pigtails came over and handed each of them two strips of white cloth. "You guys should join us quickly! Come on!"

Without any explanation, he pulled Xu Ran and Luo Xue into the crowd and asked them to participate in this strange welcome ceremony.

Seeing everyone smiling and waving the white cloth strips in their hands, Xu Ran also bravely jumped up while waving. Don't think wrongly, she was really just jumping.

Nie Chengjing and Song Qiang were also pulled into the crowd by two strong men, and they jumped up together.

Dancing very happily.

Xu Ran danced a few times but couldn't dance anymore. She withdrew from the crowd and prepared to rest for a while.

I accidentally heard crying not far away. Although it was not loud, it was very tragic.

She stood up and moved closer to see what was going on.

They saw Lin Han and the old patriarch looking in embarrassment, and then Uncle Lin, who had brought them here, half-knelt on the ground and shouted, with a tragic expression.

"Oh my God! How can I be the leader of the clan? Brother, if you persist for a few more years, your grandson can take over."
