great master

Lan Jinxiu acted quickly, as long as the price was right, he signed the share transfer agreement without the slightest hesitation.Although in the end Lan's shares were the most eaten by the Lan's family, the company still belonged to Lan's in the end, but the family was changed.Operations are business as usual, even if there is no Lan Jinxiu, there seems to be no major mistakes, after all, the company's top management has not changed much.

So regarding Lan Jinxiu's decision, the anger and secret hatred from the beginning turned into cynicism.As if no one could do without him, the Lan family would make a lot of money without him.And everyone in the Lan family waited to see how miserable the two brothers and sisters of the Lan family would be in the future.

As the new year approaches and it is snowing heavily, Putian Mountain in Siyang has a formation barrier, so it can be said that it is like spring all the year round, which does not affect the speed of planting. The planting on the mountain is attracted by the spiritual spring water, and the Secret Service Department can keep pace with it. Deng Yang and Lan Yuzhuo's relationship has basically come.

As for those Lan family members who were punished, although they also wanted to find an opportunity to see if they could get some spiritual water, no matter how hard they dawdled, they still had to complete their daily workload, so after the punishment was over, they had to go down the mountain.

Because of the holiday with the Si family, even if they wanted Lingquan water, they couldn't have the audacity to go up the mountain and exchange it with labor.It would be even more embarrassing if they didn't give them the Lan family.Seeing that some grassroots celestial masters in the secret service department were not as good as they were originally, because they went up to the mountains every day to plant trees in exchange for spiritual spring water, and their cultivation bases are increasing day by day. All of them failed to get in touch with the Lan family because they used to fawn on them. I feel bad, more or less complaining.

Anyway, the situation of the Lan family suddenly became a bit difficult to talk about in the Secret Service Department, but after all, the family has a great career, and no one said anything in front of them, but the discussions behind it must be indispensable, and the celestial masters can also gossip of.

The other sects also heard some news about Putian Mountain, but Sian Chay from Linggu Temple was the first to come to the door, and asked Siyang with a smile if he still needed manpower.

Now there are almost enough people on the mountain, but the Lingmi area is a long-term job.So Si Yang simply handed over the planting of the Lingmi area to Linggu Temple. They changed a group of young monks to go up the mountain every quarter, and settled the Lingquan water monthly as wages.Of course, Sian Chay has no objection to this kind of cooperation. Anyway, they also have a farm in Linggu Temple, but a group of people come out to help farm, and they can get some water from the Lingquan.

After the initial planting of the entire Putian Mountain was completed, and the entire mountain closure formation was fully opened, and the aura was so strong that it permeated the entire mountain, they realized that they had made a lot of money from this cooperation. Even if there is no spiritual spring, they are willing to do white labor. Every breath is spiritual energy, and it is profitable to go up!

There is a large array on the mountain, but Shanxia Lan Jinxiu does not have the ability to set up an array for his own farmland, so there is no way to reclaim the farmland in the cold winter, so he can only buy some diluted spiritual spring water from Siyang to raise the land during this time. After all, it has been left unused for so many years, and is affected by the yin energy on the mountain. It may take several years to grow the soil in the usual way. However, the resort has private individuals who don't care about it and started to build it.

Lan Jinxiu, who has money and leisure, has become a vagrant, except for occasionally going down the mountain to see the progress, and studying the food in Zhongdu.Although Si Yang had studied in Zhongdu for nearly four years, he hadn't reached the point where he could cover every piece of land in Zhongdu, so with such a guide, he naturally ate and drank along with him.

However, when passing by a commercial building one time, Si Yang couldn't help but take a second look.

Seeing his gaze, Lan Jinxiu said: "That's the old Lan's, but now that the boss has changed, the entire signboard scene has also been changed. Although it's only been a short time since I left, such a change really makes people feel a little emotional .”

Si Yang said: "Do you want to go back? After all, you developed it all by yourself."

Lan Jinxiu shook his head: "I don't want to, it's just a forced development. It's fine now."

Si Yang smiled and asked again: "Is there a celestial master from the Lan family who took over the Lan family?"

Lan Jinxiu thought for a while: "Heavenly masters should not be mentioned, but there are some who understand a little bit. The Lan family itself is a Taoist family, and those who can go into business are not very talented. As long as they can be cultivated, they must be Cultivate towards the celestial master, and will not spend your mind on other places."

Si Yang let out a groan and didn't say anything else. There was such a big black cloud with evil spirit over the building, and it was unknown whether no one noticed it, or it couldn't be solved if it was discovered.The evil cloud covering the top is not ordinary.

Although there is no custom of New Year in the world of cultivating immortals, Si Yang has followed suit in the past 20 years since he came to Earth.But in the past, it was just him and my grandfather. During the Chinese New Year, some neighbors gave each other some things like cured fish and bacon. No relatives came to visit.Now that my grandfather has passed away, there is no need to return to my hometown in the countryside.

It's just that the group of ghost servants at home are all Chinese people. They have been looking forward to the New Year since the first snow fell. The fat chef even prepared the New Year's feast early.Seeing their great interest, Si Yang followed them.

Lan Jinxiu and Lan Yuzhuo also cut ties with the Lan family this year. Naturally, they don’t need to go back to the main house to participate in any prayers and sacrifices to their ancestors. The Taoist New Year is much more complicated than ordinary people. According to the continuation of the rules, each Taoist family or large sect will perform rituals in their respective jurisdictions.

Every year, these families will have two large-scale rituals, one for the New Year and the other for the Tomb-sweeping Day.What the ritual needs to do is to rescue some lonely souls and wild ghosts who have no one to worship, and send them to the place where they should go. On the one hand, this can maintain the balance of yin and yang, protect the stability of the area, and on the other hand, it can also accumulate yin virtue for the family.So often at this time, if the children of the family who are away have nothing important to do, they all want to go home.

In the past, Lan Jinxiu and the others also wanted to go back to the main house. When they were young, they would suffer some white-eyed ridicule and indifference. When they grow up, the abilities of the siblings are highlighted, and those who are not friendly will not be foolishly shown, but they ignore it as if it were nothing. Sometimes it hurts more.

What Lan Yuzhuo particularly dislikes is Chinese New Year. She feels uncomfortable in that huge and cold old house full of age. Even though her surname is Lan, she never feels that she is from the Lan family.This year is good, they don't have to go back to suffer anymore, so this is the first time she has been preparing for the new year with great interest.

And her master, Shang Qishui, also moved out of the old house of Lan's family after Lan Jinxiu sold off all the Lan's shares.Lan Yuzhuo originally thought about whether the matter of their siblings would make it difficult for his master, but she did not expect her master to tell her that the agreement between him and the Lan family was originally only 20 years old, and it would be even better this year to reach 20 years .

It was only then that Lan Yuzhuo knew that the reason why her master became an enshrinement to the Lan family was because of a promise made back then that whether to go or stay after 20 years was entirely up to her master's volition.Now that her master has followed her and left the Lan family, it can only be said that the promise has been fulfilled, and it is not considered a breach of trust.But why there was such a promise, Lan Yuzhuo asked her master several times, but her master didn't tell her.

Shang Qishui's era was the most rampant period when all kinds of feudal superstitions were broken. Even if he said something wrong, he would be criticized. I don't know how many talents and cultural relics were destroyed in that era.

The celestial master who taught Shang Qi to draw talismans with water was reported and arrested. In the end, he escaped with nowhere to go and went to work as a barefoot doctor in a small rural village incognito.But he didn't want to bury the wilderness with the ability of a celestial master, so almost without the slightest choice, he chose a child with good character in the village and tried to teach him something.

Unexpectedly, Shang Qishui is better than blue than blue.The celestial master who taught Shang Qishui never walked out of that small village all his life, and he was not young when he went to the village, and half of the loess was buried.After teaching everything he could teach, he went there within a few years.

Later, Shang Qishui also grew up, left the village, and learned a lot. Many things that the old heavenly master taught him that he couldn't understand at the time, later slowly understood and integrated, but he really honed himself. ability.Especially in the area of ​​drawing symbols, I am very talented and like to study.After the reform and opening up, he also took advantage of that time to get a lot of unique copies, and after his own research, the talismans became more and more powerful, and slowly made some famous tricks.

Later, because of some things, he became an enshrinement of the Lan family. After he no longer lived in a fixed place, he only needed to concentrate on studying talismans, but he gradually became a master of talismans.Maybe it's because he has experienced many things. After getting older, Shang Qishui gradually calmed down, and he was no longer as vigorous as when he was young.He has never married in his life, so he really treats Yu Zhuo as a daughter, so he loves his house and loves Wu, so he naturally attaches great importance to Lan Jinxiu.

I learned from Yu Zhuo about Jinxiu's feelings for Si Yang, although he is not very optimistic about it, although Jinxiu is very good, but this excellence is within the scope of ordinary people, even if Si Yang likes men, I'm afraid he wouldn't fall in love with an ordinary man, but he didn't object either. He's a young man, maybe true love can perform miracles.So on the first day he came to Lan Jinxiu's place, he visited Si Yang.

After this visit, he became friends with the spirit snake of the Si family. The most fertile animals he saw were weasels and foxes. There were many such things in the mountains in the early years, although there are many folk legends about the five great masters. , Before the feudalism was broken, many people still enshrined the Five Great Masters, but then there were more and more reinforced concrete, and these things went more and more to the mountains. Without incense and offerings, there were naturally fewer and fewer spiritual ones.

The Five Masters are also called the Five Great Immortals, which are mice, snakes, foxes, weasels and hedgehogs. These five animals were the most common in ancient times, so many supernatural legends are extended through these animals.Among them, the fox is the most cunning, and the weasel is the most magical. They are the two immortals that have been passed down for the longest time, and people still worship them today.

In the past, Shang Qishui had no family background when he was young, and he had to go to the deep mountains to find some materials for drawing talismans. Once he lost his way in the mountains. There is still some ability, among other things, it is definitely no problem to identify the direction in the mountains and forests.But that time, there might be some mountain charm acting as a demon, and suddenly there was fog on the mountain.But his cultivation base was low at that time, and he only had a few talismans on him. If something happened, he might not be able to escape.

Later, a big white snake appeared. That snake was snow-white and huge in size, but Shang Qishui felt inexplicably gentle when looking at him. He finally walked out of the mountain following the big white snake.

Only later did he know that that day was a special moonlit night, and the essence of the moon would be poured onto the earth along with the moonlight, and the animals that became spirits in the mountains would come out one after another to absorb the essence and practice, and worship the moon.

This day is very important to animals. If it is destroyed by humans, it will be even more vengeful than people being dug up their ancestors' graves.So if the big white snake hadn't brought him out at that time, he probably wouldn't have been able to get out.

From then on, he had a natural affinity for snakes, and later he tried to search for them again in the mountains, but unfortunately found nothing.So when he saw the big white snake in Si's house, he really liked it. Unfortunately, he could only draw symbols but not make alchemy. Otherwise, he could study the elixir that could be fed to beasts and help the big snake cultivate.

As a result, the Si family had two more Taoist regulars, a monk from Sian Chay of Linggu Temple, and a master of talismans, Shang Qishui.Linggu Temple, where Sian Chay is located, is an old temple with a lot of treasures. Although it is definitely not very impressive compared to Siyang's, after learning that Siyang has contracted a mountain, he also sent it I bought a large piece of top-quality purple bamboo, and the golden lotus that is only unique to Linggu Temple, which can be regarded as congratulatory gifts.

But Shang Qishui is more direct, he has nothing to show except the talisman, but Si Yang's talisman is better than him.However, after getting along for a period of time, he found that Si Yang seemed to only be able to draw the kinds of talismans that were used the most, and he didn't know much about some special talismans.But I think so, Si Yang is majoring in kendo, and I am afraid that talismans are only slightly involved, so Shang Qishui asked Si Yang what he meant, and seeing that he had no objection, he held a class once a week. When teaching jade, By the way, Li Zezhi, Siyang's apprentice, also taught him.

Although Li Zezhi will not be able to specialize in talismans in the future, he should take it as a long-term experience. At least if he encounters some unpopular talismans in the future, he won't be unclear about everything.

So after both parties got along very well, we simply celebrated the New Year together.

Besides them, because of Shen Ran, even Shan Hexuan, who was alone with his family, was invited to the Si family to celebrate the New Year together.Shen Ran is a real demon, and his identity must not be revealed. In the past, Sian Chay was a frequent visitor to the Si family, but now there is another Shang Qishui. To prevent exposure, Shen Ran came here Before he can change back into a human form, he can only stay by Shan Hexuan's side. After all, if he stays in the Si family and accidentally relaxes and exposes it, it will be over. It's better to stay outside as a pet and be vigilant all the time.

So this time Shan Hexuan was invited to the Si family to celebrate the New Year, but Shen Ran was only brought along as Shan Hexuan's pet.

Of course, there is nothing to say about the cooking skills of the fat chef, because this is also the first year they have spent after leaving the palace, so the fat chef rolled up his sleeves and worked hard, filling the table with all kinds of delicacies and small dishes. Fuzi and Lan Yuzhuo, the atmosphere was very lively.

The spirit snake that has been adopted as the pet of the family does not dare to be a monster in front of Si Yang, but because Li Zezhi and Shang Qishui love it, they are also let in to celebrate the New Year together.Thinking of being chased by this big guy in the mountains, he almost fell into a mouse hole, so Shen Ran ran directly to sit on the big snake's head, waiting for Shan Hexuan to feed him.No way, his current identity is Shan Hexuan's pet.

Seeing this, Shang Qishui smiled and said: "Sure enough, he is a spiritual guy, and ordinary small animals like to be close."

All the ghost servants in the house who knew about it looked at the big snake with pity. Not to mention being fucked, it became a pet snake, and now it is ridden on the head by a chinchilla. There is probably no snake worse than Dabai .

Li Zezhi doesn't know Shen Ran's identity yet, but the ghost servant at home told him that there is another person in the family, but now because he has something to go out, it will take a while to come back, so he knows that there is another person named Shen Ran in the family, but he doesn't know. Knowing that Shen Ran is the chinchilla squatting on the big snake's head now.

He also kept sighing: "Uncle Shan is amazing, and the pets he raises are also extraordinarily courageous."

Shan Hexuan was holding a bowl, a spoon, and a spoon to feed the chinchilla. He rolled his eyes when he saw Shen Ran carrying everyone behind his back, and couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling slightly.
