Otherworldly Mysterious Gate

Lin Shu and his party were led by Lin Desong to the competition site for a tour. The scene was very lively, but Lin Shu glanced at it and saw that it was more than lively but not intense. This was more like a grand event than a duel of life and death. Such a game As Lin Fu said, it seems a bit too gentle.

Lin Shu's status is special, and Nasha is even more eye-catching. Lin Desong naturally didn't want to get into trouble, so he took Lin Shu and others into the inner courtyard after a casual turn. Compared with the hustle and bustle outside, it is simply two worlds.

"This is the meeting hall. The Patriarch and representatives of the Presbyterian Church are waiting for you in the small living room on the side. They want to meet you first."

"Alright."

There was nothing wrong with Lin Shu, but Lin Tai fell silent, as if she was a little nervous. Anyway, she was still a girl in her early twenties, and she would still be nervous when she saw these patriarchal people.

Nasha had nothing to do with herself, she just had the mentality of watching the excitement, so she looked very relaxed, she turned her head and looked around, and occasionally met some young people who came in and out of the yard, which attracted a lot of attention.

Passing through a relatively large courtyard, Lin Shu guessed that this should be the meeting hall when he saw the large characters of "diligence, thrift and respect" hanging on the main hall. Lin Desong led Lin Shu through the small door on the side, bypassed the bushes, and appeared A row of very elegant buildings, Lin Desong stopped.

"Mr. Wang, Miss Nasha, can you please wait here for a while, or I can have someone show you around."

Before Old Wang could speak, Lin Shu said first, "Old Wang, take care of Nasha, there are too many people here."

Pharaoh blinked slightly regretfully and replied, "Okay."

"Sorry." Lin Desong smiled politely.To this old housekeeper.Lin Desong is simply cautious.This made Pharaoh feel very boring.

Lin Desong beckoned to a guard standing on the side of the courtyard gate, gave some instructions in a low voice, and Lao Wang and Nasha followed the guard to the other side.

Lin Desong led Lin Shu to the row of low buildings along the gravel road.

Arriving in front of the building, Lin Shu realized that the scale of the building complex was not small. What they saw just now was only a part. On the steps of the building facing Lin Shu, several men and women of different ages were waiting on it. It is said that this specification is quite high.However, Lin Shu didn't feel overwhelmed, and even Lin Bu looked very calm.

"Elders, this is brother and sister Lin Shu and Lin Bu. Desong's mission has been completed."

"Very well, you go down first and greet the guests."

"Yes, Lin Shu, then I will take my leave first, and I will wait for the two of you at the door later and help you arrange accommodation."

"Okay. Thank you, Uncle Desong."

"Thank you!" Lin Duo also smiled and thanked.

Lin Desong took a deep look at the two siblings, turned around and left.

"Lin Shu, Lin Duo. Welcome home. My name is Lin Jingxin. I work in the Young Eagle Hall of the Presbyterian Church. I am responsible for the affairs of young people in the clan. You can call me Elder Jingxin. This is Elder Lin Jinghui from the Zongren Hall. , this is Elder Lin Jingyuan from the Discipline Hall, this is Elder Lin Jingzhong from the Foreign Affairs Hall, Patriarch Lin Jingtang and Presbyterian President Lin Jingfeng are waiting for you two."

It was the kind-looking middle-aged woman who spoke, and the others nodded with different expressions.

"Lin Shu (Lin Fu) has met all the elders." According to Xia Guo's etiquette, the two bowed slightly, performing the etiquette of a junior, and several elders stood on the steps and accepted the greetings of the two of them calmly. .

"Hehe, come in quickly." Lin Jingxin smiled very amiably.

Lin Shu stretched out his hand and pulled the dissatisfied elder sister, and followed with a smile. My elder sister and I have lived on our own since we were young, so we must not like the fact that there are a lot of peddlers on our heads, but no matter what, I will They are descendants of the Lin family. As a descendant, it is reasonable to give way to the elders a little bit. Besides, there is no real loss, so there is no need to care so much.

Regarding Lin Shu's attitude, the elders seem very satisfied. It seems that Lin Shu is not as arrogant as Lin Desong said. What happened last time may be just some impulsive young people. As long as Lin Shu still recognizes the authority of Lin's elders No problem.

Unfortunately, they don't know Lin Shu at all.

The room is bright and spacious, but Lin Shu doesn't like this arrangement. Ordinarily, this is just a reception room, and it's enough to separate the host and guest. Why raise the host seat one step higher?Such an obvious level distinction obviously makes the people sitting below feel inferior.

There are two chairs on the main seat, and there is a desk in between. There is a round magic prop on it. Lin Shu can tell at a glance that this is a spiritual magic prop, which has the effect of calming the mind. It can also be used as an offensive booster when activated.

There are two rows of seats on both sides, and there is a coffee table between the seats. Lin Jingxin took Lin Shu to the guest seat on the left, but Lin Shu did not sit down, but stood side by side with Lin Duo, facing the two older people on the seat. The older elder saluted.

"Lin Shu (Lin Duo) has met the Patriarch and the Great Elder."

The old man on the left smiled reservedly and said, "You don't have to be polite, sit down."

Lin Shu and Lin Biao didn't move, Lin Shu said: "We still stand, and we have to raise our heads to talk after sitting down, I'm not used to it!"

"presumptuous!"

Patriarch Lin Jingtang stretched out his hand, stopped Lin Jingyuan, the elder of the Discipline Hall, and looked at Lin Shu with a smile. Both Lin Shu and Lin Biao looked back calmly.

"Alright, I'll sit somewhere else."

As Lin Jingtang said, she stood up from her seat, and Lin Jingfeng on the other side also stood up. Lin Jingtang walked down the steps, came to the first chair on the left and sat down safely, then stretched out her hand to signal Lin Shu.

Then Lin Shu smiled and sat on the chair across the coffee table from him. Lin Bu sat down next to Lin Shu. The other elders were a little surprised, but they all kept their mouths shut and walked to the opposite side silently. sit on the seat.

"Lin Shu, you may not be used to it. The Lin family doesn't care about citizens or common people, but they pay more attention to the differences between seniors and young."

Lin Shu grinned: "The difference between old and young should mean respecting the old and loving the young? If you only use this step to distinguish, it would be too petty."

"Haha... well said, it seems. We should get rid of all these formal things."

"That's all I said. Why should the Patriarch take it seriously?"

Lin Shu's words stunned the elders.It's too much to be good when you get cheap.

Lin Jingtang squinted her eyes and thought about it, then nodded and said, "Are you trying to adapt measures to local conditions?"

"It's not that complicated, I just don't like it, because it's rare to encounter such a situation outside, the existence of the hierarchy itself will make people unconsciously look up or look down on others, but most of the time. We should all be eye level, shouldn't we?"

"Hehe, Lin Shu deserves to be Lin Shu. It's not a fluke to have such an achievement! Can you tell me about yourself?"

"My past must be understood by all the elders. If you want to know, you don't understand. There are some things that cannot be said outside, so there is nothing to worry about here."

"Not bad!"

"The head of the family is wondering why I got a first-level member of the Demon Research Association, and what is going on with Xuanmen, isn't it?"

"If you can."

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just about telling the story. Be careful not to spread it to the outside world."

"Of course!"

"The reason why I was recognized by the Magic Research Association is because I was in the Longling Mountains. I activated the ancient teleportation magic circle!"

"ah!?......"

"The ancient teleportation magic circle? Is this true?"

"Naturally, and soon this technology will be broken through. The material used in the ancient magic circle is sapphire, and the alchemy circuit material used inside is a highly transparent active alloy. It’s related to extracting active potions and the like.”

"I see, the Lin family will remember your contribution."

"In addition, with regard to Xuanmen, the matter involves the teacher's sect. I can't go into details. I can only say that Xuanmen is an ancient sect inherited from ancient times. Its goal is to pursue the unknown. It basically has no secular pursuits, and the ancestors are also related to Xuanmen. Others I can't say more, please understand the head of the family and all the elders."

Lin Jingtang nodded with a smile: "I understand, I can understand, but the ancestor is also related to Taoism? Why have you never heard him talk about it?"

"In fact, there is already a clear proof of this. Everyone in the Lin family is not divided into ranks. Doesn't the third "all things are equal" in the Taoist precepts just reflect this point?"

"Ah? That's it!" Although Lin Jingtang said so, he didn't necessarily believe it. In fact, he didn't care whether he believed Lin Shu or not.

Lin Jingtang can treat him with an equal attitude. As a member of the Lin family, Lin Shu has already given him the appropriate rewards. Lin Shu has a clear conscience.

"I came back this time mainly because I wanted to see the secret room of my ancestors."

"Sure, but listening to what you said, don't you plan to return to Xia Guo? If you come back, Xia Guo's conditions will definitely be good."

"Patriarch, I'm still a student, and I won't go anywhere until I finish my studies, and to put it bluntly, the Lin family in Xiaguo is a circle, and I'm an unplanned factor. If I force my way in, it will make many People are uncomfortable, and more importantly, I will also be uncomfortable. If possible, I would like to open up a branch of the Lin family in Tang State."

"This...don't worry for now. After all, you haven't finished your studies yet. We'll talk about this in the future!"

As soon as Lin Shu rolled his eyes, he understood Lin Jingtang's plan, and glanced at Lin Bu, Lin Bu obviously understood the way, but she looked at her younger brother with a smile, with an expression of allowing him to make decisions.

"Alright, just listen to the Patriarch."

"Hehe, okay, you must be very tired after driving for a few days. Rest first. Tomorrow is the day to open the ancestor's secret room. I will arrange everything at that time. If Lin Fu wants to go, he can do it."

"Then thank you Patriarch, my sister naturally wants to open her eyes very much."

Looking at the backs of the Lin Shu siblings leaving, Lin Jingtang, who was standing on the steps seeing each other off, squinted his eyes and thought.

"Patriarch, this Lin Shu has a bad temper, why should Patriarch give him face like that?"

"Do you know the old Wang who followed him?"

"I know, what's up?"

"He is an eighth-level powerhouse. He should be from the Demon Research Association or from the Taoist sect. Such a person is willing to follow him as an old housekeeper. What right do we have to rely on the old and sell the old in front of him? If we can't treat him equally, what do you think? He will tell us those things? He said that the Magic Research Institute requires confidentiality, and we don’t know anything! With this skill, you might as well go and see if you can get more from Qingyu and other industries.”

"Uh, I see, I'll go right away."

"There is something in Lin Shu's words today. Everyone is thinking about it. This little guy is more cunning than the old fox, but he is really good to his family. I can only touch him with affection. I will never forgive anyone who dares to offend Lin Shu in the future. Please, elders Know this too."

"understand!"

"Calm down, sister and brother Lin Shu will leave it to you, don't make any mistakes."

"Yes!" (To be continued...)
