Soon, things were packed away.

Zhong Haoran took out his luggage, and Zhong Sheng quickly took it and carried it into the sedan. After a while of busy work, without taking a breath, he opened the curtain and invited Zhong Yuling in, and then saluted Zhong Haoran:

"Grandmaster, you haven't been back for several years. If nothing happens to our sect, let's go back together and take a look."

"Let him go, Chen Lang, leave early and come back early." Zhong Haoran left calmly.

After getting on the sedan chair, there was silence for a while.

"What are you recuperating for? Are you sick?" Chen Lang looked at Zhong Yuling.

Zhong Yuling did not explain, but leaned on his luggage and squinted his eyes to sleep. Zhong Sheng explained hurriedly: "My aunt has been in poor health since she was a child. She has to go back for recuperation every few years. However, she has recovered almost the same over the years. This should be the last time. ”

Chen Lang nodded. He was so young, but he was seriously ill. He really didn't notice it.

Zhong Haoran's illness was difficult to solve, and it was probably a big problem. He definitely couldn't help him, so he simply asked without thinking:

"that."

"What about the magic weapon?" Zhong Sheng said, "Don't worry, my family is poor, but I can afford a few treasures. Brother Chen will go and pick one."

"By the way, I heard that Brother Chen is going to participate in ancestor worship? It just so happens that we can go together."

"Are you also a contestant?" Chen Lang was surprised.

Zhong Sheng nodded, "I represent the Zhong family."

Chen Lang thought something bad was going on. Should he tell him when the time came and don't kill this guy? This would be bad.

"Who are they?" Chen Lang asked. If he had known about this relationship, he would not have gone to Goddess Peak to ask for information.

Zhong Sheng pondered for a moment, "There are more than ten or twenty elders of the Tianjian Sect, and more than half of them have families behind them, and there are people participating in each."

"Among them are Mother Goddess Feng Si, Elder Zhou Tianzheng, Elder Qing, etc. The participants from their families are all strong masters. Then there are the Lu family, the Chen family, the Murong family, etc. Basically, they take over ten of them every year. Location."

"Ten positions on the top list?"

"Exactly."

Chen Lang was silent for a moment. He felt that he had underestimated the difficulty of this mission, "What is the use of the Heaven Capture List?"

"Divide monastic resources."

Zhong Sheng explained, "The so-called ancestor worship is actually a competition between various families. Tianjian Sect is the Tianjian Sect of each family, and there must always be a ranking.

The spiritual stone resources are just that, they are all low-level things, but some high-grade elixirs are relatively scarce and can only be supplied to a very small number of people. In recent years, only ten places have been provided, which is what the outside world calls the Tianbang.

Only those who can be on the Heavenly Ranking are qualified to share those resources. These people will be trained as sect elders in the future. "

He explained to Chen Lang that, for example, Murong Jing, the leader of the Goddess Peak, and Li Rui, who was under Elder Shi, were all top players on the Heavenly Ranking in previous years. They had participated in ancestor worship and left their surnames on the ancestral tablets.

After saying this, Chen Lang understood that it was similar to the Pingtian Sect who sat on a big mahogany chair according to his status.

A little more high-end.

Suddenly, he had an idea.

"I am also a disciple of Elder Zhong. Can I participate on behalf of the Zhong family?"

In this case, wouldn't getting in the top ten be like picking something out of a bag? When the Zhong family comes out, who doesn't give them face?

Zhong Sheng:......

He smiled politely and said, "I admire Brother Chen very much, but the representative must be a descendant of the family. Does Brother Chen want to marry into my Zhong family?"

"That's not impossible."

Zhong Shenglang smiled, "If you say that, I'm afraid the person from Goddess Peak will be unhappy."

Chen Lang shrugged, as long as I'm happy, I don't care what others do.

Of course, he casually said that this "family representative" was related to the position of elder, which would definitely not work.

The two magical beasts in front and behind soared through the clouds and mist, moving forward at great speed. Chen Lang later knew that the name of this beast was "Ox Dragon", which came from ancient times.

After waiting for more than half a day after getting off the sedan, Zhong Sheng bowed and went home to prepare. Chen Lang and Zhong Yuling were left waiting.

"Don't give him a good look." Zhong Yuling opened his eyes and said suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Lang felt that the other party was quite enthusiastic. Why were the father and daughter so cold?

"My dad said so."

"I never said that." Chen Lang said.

Zhong Yuling squinted his eyes and smiled slyly, "Actually, I'm quite old."

"Fourteen years old." Chen Lang exposed her.

"Who told you that?"

Zhong Yuling said, "I am over eighty this year. If you don't believe it, just wait, they will all call me aunt."

Soon, several people came. A middle-aged man led several people. When he saw Zhong Yuling, he immediately saluted:

"Second aunt."

"Look." Zhong Yuling was very proud.

Chen Lang:?

No, seriously?

"The pool has been set up and you can take a medicinal bath." the middle-aged man said.

"Wait a minute, didn't you see I just came down? I'm very tired." Zhong Yuling's face immediately turned cold.

"I didn't think carefully." The middle-aged man apologized, "Then when will this nephew go to choose the magic weapon?"

When Zhong Yuling heard this, he pouted and stopped dragging his feet. He patted Chen Lang's arm and said generously:

"Don't be afraid. Take whatever you want. I'll protect you, aunt. If anyone dares to bully you, tell me."

"Second aunt is joking." The middle-aged man said, "I am a guest from afar, so don't worry."

Zhong Yuling snorted coldly and left under the escort of several people.

After she left, Chen Lang asked directly:

"I heard she is over eighty this year? What's going on?"

This is a very serious question. Could it be that she is the Tianshan Child Mother? I went from being a father to a grandson.

The middle-aged man looked ashamed and waved to Chen Lang, "Excuse me for a moment."

Repelling his subordinates, the middle-aged man guided Chen Lang to another stone road and said at the same time:

"I am Zhong Shiji, the Zhong family."

"No need, let's get down to business." Chen Lang said.

Zhong Shiji pondered for a moment, "She was sealed for seventy years when she was a baby."

"Is it related to her condition?"

"yes."

Zhong Shiji said, "When she was born, she was born with a Taoist body. However, during the decades of sealing, her divinity was lost and her foundation was somewhat damaged.

She came here to use the thing that sealed her at that time to absorb her divinity back. She has been doing this for these years, and this is the last time. "

"How useful is it?"

"It will definitely be much better than ordinary people."

"No wonder." Chen Lang nodded, finally understanding.

He has long felt that Zhong Haoran must be quite young when he reaches that level. Why is his daughter so old? A man who is hundreds of years old has a teenage girl. This is how a novel should be written.

Zhong Haoran is still too kind. If it were him, he would destroy the Zhong family directly.

That's fine, I don't have to worry about asking for a magic weapon now.

"Why the seal?" Chen Lang asked.

"It was a wrong decision made by our ancestors."

Zhong Shiji explained that Zhong Haoran was originally a collateral descendant of the Zhong family. He lived with his parents when he was young and suffered some hardships.

After Zhong Haoran became famous, he was re-incorporated into the family, but at this time he had no parents, so the family allowed him a clan member as compensation, and he married Zhong Haoran and gave birth to a daughter.

After returning from a certain retreat, he heard that his wife and daughter had died of illness, and he rarely interacted with the family. Zhong Haoran was indifferent to fame and wealth, and had no interest in the world. He repeatedly invited him to join the family as the head of the family, but he was rejected.

Later, when the Zhong family was in trouble and seeking help to no avail, the original head of the family informed him that his daughter was still alive but had just been sealed. Only then did Zhong Haoran help quell the trouble and take away his daughter, Zhong Yuling.

Zhong Shiji simply explained: "When Patriarch Zhong was in seclusion, the head of the family felt that the second aunt had no one to take care of her. He was afraid that someone would use her to plot against the Patriarch, so he sealed her away. However, something happened, which caused her foundation to collapse and her future to be in jeopardy."

"What about your original head of the family?" Chen Lang asked.

"After informing Patriarch Zhong of the news, he has already ended his life on his own. The position of the head of the family has been vacant, and they all hope that Patriarch Zhong will take charge."

Chen Lang nodded lightly, but he didn't expect that his master was also a bull.

"I think her foundation was destroyed. It's not an accident, right?" Chen Lang said.

It's unreasonable from beginning to end. Zhong Shiji is obviously hiding something. Since Zhong Yuling was so talented back then, shouldn't she be raised as soon as possible because she's worried about the plot? Why was it sealed and then abolished?

This is not a relative, it is clearly a bargaining chip.

"Little friend Chen Lang, don't say that. The head of the family admits that it is his fault alone. I hope that Patriarch Zhong will not implicate future generations.

As for the second aunt, we will definitely take care of her. As long as my Zhong family is still here, she can live a healthy life. "

After Zhong Shiji finished speaking, he added:

"I heard that Chen Xiaoyou is a disciple of Grandmaster Zhong, and he is also my nephew. We are all one family. If you have a chance, tell Grandmaster Zhong and ask him to come back and visit more often."

"Well, the chips are pretty good." Chen Lang nodded.

He understood why Zhong Haoran didn't help him deal with Lu Ming. As expected, family members are the biggest weakness in this world.

"My little friend, what you said is inappropriate." Obviously he was unhappy with Chen Lang's judgment on the Zhong family, and reminded:

"Let's just talk about these old events. Don't talk about them everywhere, lest the ancestors be unhappy."

"What does that have to do with me?"

Chen Lang smiled and said, "I'm just here to choose a magic weapon. Why do you tell me so much?"
