The return of the immortals in the city

Chapter 253 The Monk Family
The guards at the east gate were also taking the opportunity to extort money, so Duan Qing had no choice but to go to the west gate of the city, and found that the guards were asking some children who took part in the test, as long as they met the age requirements, they would be allowed to enter the city.

Looking aside for a while, Duan Qing found out that these Lin family guards did not try to extort oil and water.

Of course, if someone offers money on his own initiative, he will naturally not refuse.

Duan Qing walked up, greeted him humbly, reported his age and intention, but he was not troubled and was allowed to enter the city.

A guard named Yang Lei saw that no one came for a while, so he let the six teenagers including Duan Qing get into the carriage, called the waiting coachman, and drove to Lin Mansion.

"It's finally entering the city."

Duan Qing sat in the car, wiped his forehead, and heaved a sigh of relief. He happened to be sitting at the end, the carriage started to run, the curtains were shaking, and he could see the scene outside.

The main street in Yuanlin County is paved with bluestone, wide and clean, and can accommodate five carriages traveling side by side.

There are row upon row of shops on both sides of the street, operating inns, teahouses, restaurants, martial arts halls, grocery stores, pawnshops, grain shops, carriage shops, blacksmith shops and other businesses.

If it is on weekdays, the streets are full of traffic, people are buzzing everywhere, and the sound of bargaining is endless, which seems very lively.

Now because the Lin family is recruiting disciples, the whole city is under martial law, and no pedestrians can be seen on the street, just like an empty city.

The children in the car did not dare to speak, lest they offend the guards of the Lin family and be disqualified from taking the test.

It's just that the smell of sweat on Duan Qing's body disgusted them a little, so they involuntarily moved away from him.

As a buddy, Duan Qing was used to abuse, bullying and indifference, he didn't care at all, he just looked at the outside scenery to himself.

Huh?
Duan Qing suddenly saw a person jumping down from the tall city wall. His eyesight was very good, and he could tell that the person was Mr. Lin who came to the county with him and gave him advice.

"I knew that Mr. Lin is not an ordinary person. The city wall of this county is as high as three feet. Ordinary people can't climb over the wall, but they can't stop Mr. Lin's footsteps. If I have his skills, I don't need to be an innkeeper." .”

While Duan Qing was muttering, he saw Lin Hao clapping his hands, walking on the street like a ghost, actually following the carriage and coming towards Lin's mansion.

"What exactly is Mr. Lin going to do?"

Duan Qing was taken aback, he couldn't figure it out, and he didn't talk nonsense to the guards of the Lin family.

Lin's house is in the XC area. When the car arrived, everyone got down one by one.

The red-lacquered copper nails at the gate of the Lin Mansion are as high as one zhang. There are two stone lions weighing more than a thousand catties. The carvings are lifelike. There are six guards with knives standing beside them. and others.

The guard's eyes were sharp, like a knife sweeping across. Duan Qing and the others felt their scalps go numb, and hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look around.

The guard at the gate chatted with Yang Lei for a few words and said, "Brother Yang, plus the few you brought, there are only three more and it will be enough for [-]."

"Eight hundred is enough for the test, so I have to go in quickly."

Yang Lei passed the gate guards, and led Duan Qing and the others into the gate.

At the same time, Lin Hao came to the northwest corner of the Lin Mansion, observed it silently, and confirmed that the Lin family did not have any seniors, but only a family of cultivators in a remote place, so he walked directly to the gate.

"Who are you?"

The dedicated guard, with a look of guard on his face, shouted and asked questions.

Lin Haolang said in a loud voice: "Fangwai monk, come to the Lin residence to pay a visit."

monk?

The guards were puzzled. The monks in this world are nobles, with high strength and high status.

Even if they were the guards of the Lin family, they would not dare to provoke them easily if they could dominate in Yuanlin County.

One of the leaders, seeing Lin Hao's extraordinary appearance, put away his stern expression, clasped his fists and asked, "May I ask if there is any relationship between the Immortal Elder and the Lin family?"

"Lin has traveled all over the world, and he heard that there is a Lin family in Yuanlin County who are fellow cultivators and happen to have the same surname, so he decided to pay a visit."

When Lin Hao said this, his face showed displeasure: "Don't talk too much, go in and report quickly."

"Wait a moment, Immortal, I will go in and report."

The normally high-ranking guards did not dare to show off in front of Lin Hao, so they stepped into the mansion after speaking.

Soon, a man walked out of the mansion. He looked to be in his twenties, dressed in Chinese clothes, with a white face and a straight nose, exuding a heroic spirit.

This person is called Lin Huan, and he is a monk from the fourth generation of the Lin family. His eyes swept over Lin Hao, and he noticed the aura of a towering mountain. Compare.

"Junior Lin Huan, pay my respects to senior."

Lin Huan clasped his fists in salute. In the monk class, if there is no relationship or friendship, those with low cultivation should call those with high cultivation senior.

Those guards all showed fear when they heard the words. People who even called Young Master Lin as seniors are indeed extraordinary. Fortunately, they didn't offend them before, otherwise they would be able to kill them with a wave of their hands.

"This seat is Lin Hao."

According to the rules here, Lin Hao, who claimed to be himself, gave his name and asked, "Mr. Lin, I have something to ask you."

Lin Huan hurriedly said: "Senior, you are welcome, just call me Lin Huan. Since we are both members of the immortal sect, the person who comes is a respected guest. Please come to the mansion for a chat. If there is something you can't greet, I will also look forward to Haihan, senior." .”

"Well, I am bothering you."

Lin Hao followed Lin Huan into the Lin Mansion, and saw that the houses in the mansion were connected in stretches, covering an area of ​​more than ten acres, with winding paths leading to secluded places, mixed with corridors, rockery, pavilion gardens, small bridges and flowing water, which looked very luxurious.

This classical garden-style mansion must be comfortable to live in.

Lin Hao muttered in his heart, and followed Lin Huan to the living room in the mansion.

The maid served the tea, and Lin Hao's spiritual sense swept it away, and found that there was nothing unusual, so he drank it with peace of mind.

"Boldly ask, where did senior come from?"

Lin Huan didn't know Lin Hao's background, so he took the liberty to ask, and he had a clue in his heart.

"Dagan Kingdom, traveling abroad, came to this Chu Kingdom, I am not familiar with this area, I would like to ask, where is the nearest teleportation array?"

Lin Hao spoke bluntly, and what he said was three-pointed. He didn't want to have anything to do with the Lin family, but just to ask for directions.

In fact, Lin Hao learned from Duan Qing, the inn clerk, that more than 2000 years have passed since he traveled here this time, so he didn't want to go back to Dagan Guohua Yuanzong.

More than 2000 years have passed, Lin Hao traveled through the last time, and the contacts he made have long since passed away. It is meaningless to go to Hua Yuanzong, and his identity has been exposed, but he will be investigated instead.

Because the lifespan of a foundation-building cultivator is limited, he will definitely not live for more than 2000 years. This is a doubtful point.

The reason why Lin Hao looked for the teleportation array was because there were usually city walls where monks lived in the vicinity of the teleportation array, and there were also various commercial buildings, which were convenient for him to make deals and sell vermilion fruits in exchange for cultivation resources.

"Yuanlin County is a small place with a radius of thousands of miles, and there are not many monks. The nearest city where monks live is three thousand miles away. It's called Wangtian City..."

The information provided by Lin Huan is not considered confidential, but it is said happily.

Lin Hao made a note one by one. Once you have a goal, you can go there directly. Just as you were about to leave, the guards of the Lin family came over and said that the number of children entering the mansion is enough, and let Lin Huan go to the test.

"To tell the truth to seniors, there are too few monks in our family, and we want to recruit disciples with foreign surnames to train them, so we held this test ceremony..."

Listening to Lin Huan's words, Lin Hao nodded with a smile. In fact, he was able to embark on the road of cultivation for the first time through time travel, and he also participated in the Hua Yuanzong's apprenticeship ceremony, which gave him this opportunity.

Lin Huan said very sincerely: "Senior, Yuanlin County is a poor and remote place, and it is rare for outsiders to come here. Since the senior is destined to enter the Lin family, you might as well stay for two days, so that the younger generation can fulfill the friendship of the landlord. ..."

"Alright, I'm also very interested in this test ceremony, so let's go and have a look with you?"

"All I can ask for, please."

Lin Huan led the way first, followed by Lin Hao, and they went to the martial arts arena of the Lin Mansion together.

There is a huge space here, which can accommodate 2000 people. The wall is five meters high. The ground is covered with thick bluestone slabs. Evil spirit.

The martial arts arena was full of young men and women, and what he saw was a mass of black heads. Lin Hao took a glance and found that boys accounted for more than 500 people, and there were only more than 200 girls.

In addition to these children, there were more than a dozen burly men standing in the martial arts arena, scanning everyone with sharp eyes.

Therefore, although there are many people here, it is very quiet. The children dare not whisper to each other, but just sit silently on the ground, like livestock in the market, waiting for the arrival of buyers.

"Huh? Mr. Lin..."

Duan Qing, who was sitting in the corner, couldn't help showing a look of astonishment when he saw Lin Hao coming.
