Immortal, my aptitude is mediocre

Chapter 62 Visiting the Zhou Family
Zhou Lie's stay in the Palace of Heavenly Kings made Chen Sheng feel in a hurry.

This little guy hasn't practiced yet, so he has to make arrangements for food, clothing, housing and transportation, which is completely different from the life of a cultivator.

"How's the food?"

Chen Sheng took the medicinal food from the dining room, fearing that Zhou Lie would eat it alone and feel lonely, so he also took a portion.

At this time, the two sat on the steps of the Heavenly King Hall, looking at the vast and simple inner courtyard, and the alchemy room filled with the fragrance of alchemy, and ate food.

"delicious."

Zhou Lie buried his head in the food box, gorging himself on the food, his white and flawless face was stained with a smear of sauce, and he had no time to care about it.

He felt that this was a fairyland.

The teacher treated him very well, he was a gentle person, and he took care of everything in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Xu is afraid that he will be lonely, so he will take him with him and pay attention to him all the time.

Where can I find such a teacher?

"When I first came to Xianzong, I didn't eat as well as you."

Chen Sheng also felt that the food in the dining room was really good, as expected of spending contribution points, and it was much more advanced than the food provided to the servants.

"No way."

Hearing this, Zhou Lie raised his head from the food box, his little face was full of surprise.

The teacher he met was an alchemist in the medicine hut, a great figure in the outer sect, and his words and deeds had unspeakable power.

But now the teacher told him that he also had a down and out past, which he couldn't imagine.

"It's not abject, it's mediocre."

Chen Sheng was smiling when he talked about the things in his infancy. He didn't think that life was very hard at that time, but it was just ordinary. But at that time, there was the method of cultivating immortals, and it was also a good life to achieve great purity.

"This kid?"

Just as I was talking, the green pearl came.

When she saw Zhou Lie, she was a little dazed. If she hadn't been following Chen Sheng in recent years, she would have thought that this guy had married and had children quietly.

However, the sudden appearance of this child still made her a little vigilant.

"Are you Mistress?"

Zhou Lie blinked. The people on the teacher's side, he saw a kind of cautiousness of servants, but this woman behaved calmly and was very familiar with the Temple of Heavenly Kings, obviously she was not a passerby.

So……

It should be Mistress.

"..."

In the Palace of Heavenly Kings, because of the sound of "Master", there was complete silence for a moment, and the three of them stared wide-eyed, not knowing what to say.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's Master Uncle."

Chen Sheng coughed twice, breaking the silence.

"How can there be such a smart and quick-witted child in the world?"

Luzhu's eyes were curved, her smile turned into a crescent moon, glowing with streamers, like the moonlight shining on a tranquil lake at night, with an extremely gentle style.

All of a sudden, she fell in love with Zhou Lie, and pinched the little guy's cheek, showing her love.

In the next few days, Chen Sheng, the teacher, fell a little behind in Zhou Lie's heart.

Green Pearl wins.

She cared for Zhou Lie to the extreme, and used the best food and materials. Even Chen Sheng felt that it was a bit too much, but she plausibly said that the child is growing up, so he should eat and drink well.

"Xiao Zhoulie's mood doesn't seem to be very good."

After being in touch for a while, Luzhu has been able to grasp Zhou Lie's psychology, but she has discovered that there is something hidden in the little guy's heart.

She is obviously a child of a certain age, but there is something hidden in her heart, and she can still cover it up, which makes her feel a little distressed.

"Are you homesick?"

Chen Sheng touched his chin and said.

No matter how smart Zhou Lie was, he was only a seven-year-old child. When he first came to the Palace of Heavenly Kings, the excitement had passed, and it was possible that he would suddenly feel homesick.

"Could it be that I didn't take good care of him?"

Green Pearl pondered.

"impossible."

Chen Sheng directly vetoed this conjecture. Lu Zhu's concern for Zhou Lie was the kind of nitpicking, and he couldn't find fault. He said, "You... ask?"

Since Zhou Lie didn't reveal anything in front of his teacher, but was exposed in front of Luzhu, it would be safer for Luzhu to investigate.

"it is good."

Lu Zhu nodded, and found Zhou Lie who was getting to know the spirit grass.

"Xiao Zhoulie, what's on your mind?"

Her words are very gentle, like a caring big sister, and like a gentle elder, she will not give the child a sense of oppression.

"No...no..."

Zhou Lie's body trembled, the feeling of being seen through, but he still lowered his head and didn't say anything.

However, he was a child after all, so it was easy to see that he really had something on his mind.

When vetoing, it was not firm enough, and there was a hint of hesitation.

"Let me tell you, Master Uncle is very powerful."

It is still very easy for Luzhu, a foundation-building cultivator, to deal with a child.

"Then... don't tell the teacher..."

Zhou Lie was tempted. He knew that the teacher was a big shot, and the friends of the big shots were usually big shots, and they were very clever, so he said, "Someone bullied my family."

Since Deacon Zhou left, the Zhou family lost the Sea God Needle, and gradually declined in the wind and rain in the world of cultivating immortals.

And because he controlled a small silverscale iron mine, the Lu family of the cultivating family was following him. He had been in extreme embarrassment these years, and he was sent to the medicine hut with the intention of protecting him from disaster.

"The Lu family? Are there any foundation-building monks in the family?"

This kind of thing is very rare and common, and Lu Zhu understands that whoever has the biggest fist has a reason.

Whether it is the five great immortal sects in the border area, or the rest of the immortal cultivation system, or even the entire immortal cultivation world, they all continue this principle.

Zhou Lie: "???"

The Foundation Establishment cultivator, in his perception, is a god-like figure.

Not to mention being able to cultivate a member of the family, it is a great honor to have a relationship, and it is not a time of life and death, and I would never dare to waste it.

The Lu family, which made things difficult for them, has the highest combat power in the family, the eighth level of Qi Refining, which is a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"That's nothing to worry about."

Luzhu acted very indifferently. She was a foundation-building monk and was born in Guangxiu Xianzong. She had a natural suppression of the local Xiuxian family, which could be subverted at will.

"Uncle, can you solve it?"

Zhou Lie was pleasantly surprised, the matter that had troubled his family for several years was solved so easily.

"Of course, but you have to tell your teacher about it."

It's not a big deal, but Luzhu can't overstep. Chen Sheng is Zhou Lie's teacher, even if she can solve it, she should let her know before making a decision.

"But……"

Zhou Lie hesitated to speak, his little face was so tangled up that he didn't want the teacher to get involved.

"obedient."

Lu Zhu touched Zhou Lie's head and made a decision for him.

Afterwards, Chen Sheng knew the reason for Zhou Lie's concern, and said, "The Lu family is in trouble? This cultivating family doesn't know the relationship between the Zhou family and me, or does it have another guard of honor?"

Twenty years ago, although he was not as prominent as he is today, as the deacon of the Immortal Sect, he was quite a deterrent to the Immortal Cultivation Clan outside.

If the Lu family dared to ignore the relationship between him and the Zhou family, either they had a guard of honour, or there must be someone behind them.

"I do not know."

Among them, Zhou Lie knew very little about the inside story. As a child, even if he was a young patriarch, adults would not talk to him about those heavy things.

"Tomorrow, I will go home with you."

Chen Sheng decided to go to Zhou's house, this matter really cannot be ignored.

At this time, Zhou Lie revealed the reason for the concealment, saying: "No, my father said this is a family matter, and it's not a time of crisis, so I can't disturb you, teacher."

He didn't know why he couldn't bother the teacher, but his family said so, so he did so.

"As your teacher and Deacon Zhou's long-term friend, I can't sit idly by."

Chen Sheng shook his head, knowing what the Zhou family meant, that they should use more incense and friendship, but less. They were afraid that such a disturbance would end the cause and effect.

Therefore, they would rather let Zhou Lie go to the door, but also resist the disaster by themselves.

In this way, even if the Zhou family was completely lonely later, with Zhou Lie around, they would be able to rise again.

It is correct to do so, and it is extremely safe.

But Chen Sheng, is he really an indifferent person?

With Deacon Zhou's favor, as long as the Zhou family is not wrong, he can help the Zhou family, and he will.

In the past, the reason why I talked about incense and love with the Zhou family was because I was afraid that they would act indiscriminately, so I set a tone first, and the follow-up matters were not left to him.

……

Gale Valley.

Zhou family.

This is a cultivating family that has lasted for more than 300 years. It was originally inconspicuous in this land.

But ever since Zhou Minsheng, the patriarch of the Zhou family, joined Guangxiu Immortal Sect and became a deacon, everything was different.

The Zhou family has leapt from being a mere idiot to the ruler of a land of hundreds of miles.

Up and down.

The rise of this Deacon Zhou also declined with the passing of this Deacon Zhou.

Although it didn't fall straight into the mud, it still lived up to the past. For more than 20 years, the Zhou family was oppressed by other cultivating families, overtly and secretly, and gradually eroded away, without any signs of prosperity.

at this time.

"The Lu family, are you really determined to take over my Zhou family's foundation?"

The face of the head of the Zhou family was extremely gloomy. He could distinguish the priorities. If other properties were robbed, they would be taken away. The decline of the Zhou family is obvious to all.

But there are some things that cannot be given up.

That silverscale iron ore mine is the foundation of the Zhou family, as long as it exists, the Zhou family will be able to plan slowly while slowing down.

The Lu family's wolf ambition is really ruthless, and it will swallow the roots of the Zhou family as soon as it comes up.

"Not negotiable."

Zhou Yichong, who sent Zhou Lie to the medicine house, was also discussing matters here. His status was quite high in the Zhou family, and he knew a lot of inside information.

He has also been there to negotiate with the Lu family, but that side is very strong, and they want to swallow the silver scale iron ore and strengthen the family.

"Then fight him, my Zhou family is still bloody."

The head of the Zhou family has a cold face, with a cold light in his eyes, and he has the courage of a leader.

Even though he wasn't optimistic about this battle, he still had to fight with vigor and blood.

"Patriarch, there's no need to fight. Didn't Zhou Lie join Alchemist Chen's sect? If those people came forward, the Lu family would dare to continue to offend them."

Some Zhou family members are puzzled, they are not without honor, that alchemist Chen from the medicine house is a huge backer, as long as he is invited to move, then the Lu family will have to kneel down even if they give the Lu family a thousand or two hundred courage.

"Confused!"

As soon as the words fell, a few old men from the Zhou family with clear heads interrupted the discussion immediately.

They stood up, their expressions were very serious, their voices were thunderous, and they spoke impassionedly, expressing their opinions.

"Zhou Lie is the opportunity for the rise of my Zhou family. Compared with the future of Zhou Minsheng's ancestor, we can't drag him into the water because of family affairs."

"You also know that it is the ancestors who are old with Alchemist Chen, not the Zhou family. If this matter makes Alchemist Chen unhappy and angers Zhou Lie, then we really deserve to die."

These words were so deafening that those clansmen who had the intention of taking chances completely gave up their thoughts.

They understood that Zhou Lie's side can never make mistakes, as long as Zhou Lie is given decades, even if they die, there will be another powerful Zhou family standing on the Dafeng Valley.

For the future of the family, the best way now is to go shopping with the Lu family. As long as there is some blood left, the future will still belong to them.

"Patriarch, Zhou Lie is back."

At this moment, a Zhou family member ran in outside the door, with an irritable expression and completely messed up the rules.

Originally, it was quite a big matter to disturb the law and order, but after hearing the words of the report, no one has pursued it.

"How did he come back?!"

Hearing this, the heart of the head of the Zhou family jumped up immediately, and his emotions were even more intense than when the Lu family hit him.

Zhou Lie had only been away for a few days, but he came back again, but was expelled?
In an instant, the elder Zhou's family who was present felt uneasy and in a mess.

"That, there is also a fairy from Guangxiu Xianzong who brought Zhou Lie back."

The messenger took a breath and said impatiently.

He was also taken aback just now, the big man that the ancestor befriended actually came over in person.

Knowing that this matter must not be neglected and that it is a major matter for the entire family, he couldn't control so much and rushed directly into the meeting hall.

"What! Alchemist Chen came in person."

One of the elders of the Zhou family couldn't sit still.

To them, a deacon of the Immortal Sect is a big shot, and this Alchemist Chen has a pivotal position in the outer sect, so they cannot be neglected.

"Quick, follow me to meet you."

The head of the Zhou clan couldn't hold back his composure anymore, and led a large group of elders, and rushed out in a hurry.

Then, he saw Zhou Lie, and two young men, the man was handsome, with the unique elegance of an alchemist, and the woman was dignified, with the detachment of a senior.

He didn't dare to hesitate, he immediately bowed and said: "Pill Master Chen, and this lord, the Zhou family is being polite."

This is the biggest person the Zhou family has come into contact with in the past 300 years. They are both excited and apprehensive. I don't know what kind of wind brought these two here.

"I don't need so many people, I'll just come and have a seat."

Chen Sheng was also taken aback by this grand scene, and then realized that he is no longer what he used to be.

With his current status, he would be received grandly if he went to a Taoist system with foundation-building monks in charge, let alone the Zhou family.

After figuring out the location, he expressed his intention to come, with a kind expression on his face, without too much prestige.

"call……"

The head of the Zhou family's ability to observe words and expressions is still good. Judging from Chen Sheng's appearance, he is flat and gentle, and it doesn't seem like something happened. There is a high probability that he brought his apprentice to visit home on a whim.

It's not a big deal, and the two sides are not really without concerns. The head of the Zhou family made up his mind to drive away the redundant elders, and then asked the servants to serve tea, and he personally accompanied them.
