The Age of Immortal Cultivation: I Have Mountains and Seas to Accompany Me

Chapter 115 Descendants of Qianji
Lin family collection.

The town is not big. It only takes half an hour to cross from one end to the other. The buildings in the town are ancient and distinctive. It is said that the Municipal Tourism Bureau plans to build it into a scenic spot with Jiangnan characteristics... However, all this has nothing to do with Lin Ying. What she thinks about every day is not the future, but how to solve the next meal and whether she can get some money to buy medicine for her mother.

Lin Ying didn't know who her father was. Ever since she could remember, she had lived with her frail mother. Her father was like an inevitable surname and endless trouble.

She caught some eels last night and went to sell them this morning... She had a dozen yuan, which she could use to buy a small bag of rice and a few boxes of medicine for her mother.

When she was almost at the grain store, three young men slightly older than her suddenly jumped out from an alley and blocked her way.

"Bastard, stop!" a young man in the middle shouted.

"Who are you calling a bastard?" Lin Ying didn't care.

"The bastard called you..."

The young man blurted out, but soon realized that he had been fooled, and angrily stepped forward and kicked... Lin Ying dodged to the side, with a hint of anger on her face: "Lin Duan, don't make yourself uncomfortable. If you make me angry, even if my future uncle gets angry, I won't care!"

"Wild girl, we all saw you selling eels this morning. Just hand over the money honestly!" Lin Duan is young, but he has a very violent temper.

"I need to buy medicine for my mother!"

Under normal circumstances, Lin Ying would never say such nonsense, but today with these three people standing in front of her, she was really not sure if she could rush past them.

"My dad said that your mom is in a state of uncertainty, and it's a waste of time to laugh. If you give you the money, I will tell you a piece of news." Lin Duan raised his head proudly.

"you put……"

Lin Ying was about to burst out, but she changed her mind and swallowed the word "bullshit". "What news? Tell me first, I want to see if it's worth the price."

Lin Duan went to elementary school for nine years, and in the end he was only able to graduate with money from his family... His father, Lin Ying's uncle, wanted to use his connections to help his son get a junior high school diploma, but Lin Duan said he didn't want to go through that, so in the end he just hung out on the streets.

"I heard from grandma that she wants to marry you off for money so that my uncle can get a wife." Lin Duan said in a low voice.

"what?!"

Lin Ying couldn't believe what she heard and stared at Lin Duan.

"It's true. If I lied to you, I'd be a dog!" Lin Duan almost swore.

The other boy listened with great interest: "I just robbed a few dollars, but your dad robbed everything!"

Lin Duan blushed. He didn't dare to get angry at his accomplice, so he angrily said to Lin Ying: "I've already told you the news, why don't you give me the money!"

"You promised me but you didn't agree." Lin Ying looked at Lin Duan as if he was an idiot.

Lin Duan immediately became angry and waved his hand: "Search her!"

Lin Ying immediately became like a cat with its fur standing on end, and said fiercely, "Who among you dares to come up?"

As he spoke, he pointed at them one by one.

Pfft!Pfft!Pfft!
The three teenagers said nothing. Whoever she pointed at fell down. The three teenagers struggled to get up, with fear in their eyes... When did Lin Ying learn this unscientific way of fighting?
Lin Ying was also very scared. She looked at her fingers in disbelief... Is this my finger?

"Do you want to have this kind of power? No longer be bullied."

A soft voice sounded in my ears.

"Think... who are you?"

Lin Ying agreed subconsciously, but then she remembered that she didn't seem to know this person, and... She looked around and didn't see where the person was talking to her.

"I'll be waiting at your house. I'll be back soon after buying rice. Hehe..."

The voice chuckled and seemed to walk away.

"Hey, are you leaving?"

Lin Ying called out again, and finally had to believe that the man had left.

The three people on the ground had recovered by now. They got up and sat on the ground, yelling and threatening her!
Just now, she knocked down three people with a wave of her hand. Lin Ying knew that it was not actually her, but in this situation now... She stepped forward and kicked each of the three teenagers down again amid their cursing.

This time she felt like she had really defeated someone... so cool!
Lin Ying waved to Lin Duan and the others and ran towards the grain store...

When Lin Ying bought rice and medicine and went home... she felt a little uneasy. That woman who appeared out of nowhere said she was waiting for her at home. Could it be true?
Walking into the yard, she heard her mother talking to a stranger from the low thatched house... Lin Ying stopped suddenly. The voice was exactly that of the woman before. She hurried in, fearing that something might happen to her mother.

After entering the room, she was stunned... The woman talking to her mother was completely different from what she had imagined. She was actually a beautiful girl who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old.

"This is my daughter Lin Ying."

Lin Ying's mother Huang Zhongxiu called the anxious Lin Ying over and said, "This is Ye Muxue, call her Auntie Ye!"

"Aunt Ye...Aunt Ye?"

Lin Ying’s eyes almost popped out. She looked only a few years older than her, so how could she be her aunt?
"Yeah!" Ye Muxue agreed without hesitation and took out a red envelope and stuffed it into Lin Ying's hand.

"No, I can't take it." Lin Ying put her hands behind her back as if the money was too hot to handle.

Huang Zhongxiu also quickly declined, saying that children should not be indulged in this bad habit.

Look at this tutor!

"Sister Huang, didn't you ask me how I found your house?"

Ye Muxue didn't force it and put the red envelope on the table. "I made careful inquiries before coming here, and I went into your Lin family's ancestral hall."

"Ah? You...you entered the Lin Family Ancestral Hall?!"

Huang Zhongxiu was startled and subconsciously looked towards the door... It was certain that Ye Muxue definitely did not enter the ancestral hall openly. The Lin family's ancestral hall did not allow outsiders to enter easily, let alone women.

Ye Muxue disagreed: "I need to confirm something. How much do you know about Lin Qianji?"

"Lin... Qianji, ancestor?"

Huang Zhongxiu was stunned.

"I know." Lin Ying's eyebrows danced with joy. "The Thousand Machine Ancestor was originally from a poor family. He passed the imperial examination when he was young. He lamented the darkness of the government at that time, so he went to look for a hermit. Later, he succeeded in cultivating immortals and ascended to heaven..."

Ye Muxue had heard this legend several times. The ancestral hall alone was not enough. The key was that Qianji Sanren's blood essence led to the Lin family village, and his bloodline descendants were quite prosperous.

Maybe it's because a big tree has dead branches. The Lin family is a big family in the Lin family, but it has a bad reputation. Lin Ying's father is one of them. Her father died early, and she and her mother were not tolerated by the Lin family. If there was no responsible principal in the town school, she would not even be able to go to school.

Especially since her mother was ill and could hardly work, she relied on Lin Ying to sell mountain products and even scraps to support the family and Huang Zhongxiu's medical expenses.

The most important thing is that Huang Zhongxiu has a good reputation in the town, and Lin Ying is also a good student with both good character and academic performance at school.

Of course, Ye Muxue secretly did some research on the Lin family's peers, and the result... well, maybe there are some incomplete aspects, but Qianji Sanren's expectations are also very clear, just pass on one descendant, there is no need to help him take care of all the descendants. If Lin Ying has no talent for cultivation, then just ensure that he will be rich and prosperous for life.

"We don't know whether Fellow Daoist Qianji is alive or dead now."

Ye Muxue waited until Lin Ying finished speaking, then slowly spoke... This sentence shocked Huang Zhongxiu and Lin Ying, mother and daughter.

"Dao...Fellow Daoist?" Huang Zhongxiu looked at Ye Muxue as if she were a mental patient, while Lin Ying bravely stood in front of Huang Zhongxiu.

Although Qianji Sanren was a senior cultivator, according to the inheritance Ye Muxue had received, it was indeed not wrong for her to call him "Daoyou"... Of course, this was also Ye Muxue deliberately putting herself on the same level as Qianji Sanren, so as to prevent the other party from having any unrealistic ideas. As for "I don't know whether I am dead or alive", this is a euphemism.

Ye Muxue didn't say anything else. She raised her hand and a flame appeared on her fingers.

"You are a magician!" Lin Ying blurted out.

“This is a Taoist technique.”

Ye Muxue corrected them, "Although you know the rumors about Fellow Daoist Qianji, you may just listen to them as stories. In fact, he is a cultivator... what people often call an immortal cultivator."

It is difficult to make an ordinary person understand what cultivation is in just a few words. Ye Muxue only gave a rough explanation. Then he got to the point: "Daoyou Qianji asked me to find a qualified person among the descendants of the Lin family to pass on his inheritance, or leave some property to ensure that he has enough food and clothing. I have observed for a few days. In the Lin family, only you and your daughter are worth supporting. Are you willing to accept it?"

"..." Huang Zhongxiu was still hesitating, but Lin Ying looked at Ye Muxue cunningly and said, "Since you are a cultivator, you must be very capable. Can you call the wind and rain and turn beans into soldiers?"

"How difficult is this!"

Ye Muxue smiled. In Lake Heart Mountain, the Taoist magic of making it rain is a must. As for turning beans into soldiers... there is actually such a Taoist magic, but Ye Muxue doesn't know how to do it. However, she knows illusion.

The door opened without any wind, and Huang Zhongxiu and her daughter saw that it was really raining in the yard. Lin Ying ran to the yard to feel it, and exclaimed in surprise: "Mom, it's really raining, and it's not raining outside the yard, only in our house."

Before he finished speaking, Ye Muxue secretly made a hand gesture... In an instant, several PLA soldiers appeared in the room and immediately dispelled the illusion.

Lin Ying came into the room, her body still wet. Huang Zhongxiu quickly asked her daughter to change into dry clothes. Ye Muxue raised her hand... Lin Ying only felt a light breeze blowing past, and her body immediately became dry.

"Can my daughter really cultivate immortality?" Huang Zhongxiu and his daughter looked at each other in surprise.

"That depends on whether she has spiritual roots."

Ye Muxue took out the spirit-testing plate and told them how to test it... Lin Ying put her hand on it as she was told, and in an instant, the colors of wood and fire lit up on the spirit-testing plate.

Both mother and daughter looked at Ye Muxue and saw a smile on her face.

"Lin Ying has dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, good quality, and a talent for cultivation."

Huang Zhongxiu was a little hesitant: "After Xiaoying's practice, can she continue to study? Can she get married and have children?"

"Of course you can. Didn't your ancestors leave behind countless descendants?"

Ye Muxue said: "We can study in the mountains, and we can go to university in the future. We have a cooperative relationship with the government."

Lin Ying suddenly asked: "Can I change my request?"

Ye Muxue frowned slightly: "Change your request? Although I came to you because of Daoist Qianji's request, it is also a great opportunity. Do you really want to change it?"

"Yes."

Lin Ying's little face was filled with determination: "Since you are an immortal, you must be able to cure diseases. I hope you can cure my mother's disease!"

"Xiaoying!" Huang Zhongxiu called her daughter's name, tears streaming down her face. "Don't be silly. Mom's health is like this. This is your chance. Don't talk nonsense!"

"You know, if you practice, you can live for many years, and after you learn skills in the future, if your mother is not dead, you will be able to save her."

Ye Muxue looked at Lin Ying with regret: "Do you really want to save her now and give up this opportunity?"

Lin Ying nodded firmly.

"Okay." Ye Muxue nodded and took out the Qi and Blood Pill, the Bone Strengthening Pill and the Essence Strengthening Pill from her body. She held the pills in her palm and instantly the three pills turned into three streams of gas and drilled into Huang Zhongxiu's mouth: "Don't be afraid, open your mouth."

This is a special technique of the alchemist, specifically used for injured people or ordinary people who are unable to swallow or refine elixirs.

Huang Zhongxiu's illness was ultimately caused by deficiency of essence and blood. After taking three pills, his foundation was strengthened and his illness was half cured. The remaining problems were simple. Ye Muxue left a bottle of Jade Bee Pill for her and asked her to continue taking it.

The effect was immediate. Seeing that Huang Zhongxiu's face had turned rosy and she could get out of bed, Lin Ying actually kowtowed to Ye Muxue to thank her for saving her mother.

"No need to thank me. This is the treatment you gave me using your own chance... Do you really not regret it? You should know that after you have succeeded in your practice, you will not only be able to call the wind and rain, but your life span will also be much longer than that of ordinary people. Your ancestor is a precedent!" Ye Muxue couldn't help asking.

"No regrets. I will stay with my mother forever as long as she is healthy." Lin Ying said firmly.

"Silly child, I regret it. There is no unfaithful or unfilial practitioner in the world. If you still want to practice, kowtow twice more and complete the ceremony of becoming a disciple." Ye Muxue looked at Lin Ying and smiled slightly.

Huang Zhongxiu was originally mumbling "silly child" at the side, but when he heard Ye Muxue's promise, he burst into tears of joy and almost held his daughter down to complete the apprenticeship ceremony. Lin Ying was very smart and kowtowed twice immediately: "Master!"

"Ah."

Ye Muxue accepted her gift and handed a jade Buddha and a talisman to the mother and daughter respectively: "This jade Buddha and talisman are for protection. The talisman can protect you five times. Fold it up and wear it close to your body."

She took out another stack of money and said, "I heard that your family owes a lot of foreign debts. Pay it back as soon as possible so that Lin Ying won't have any worries. Sister Huang, when can these trivial matters be completed?"

Huang Zhongxiu was a little reluctant: "Give us three days, okay?"

"Okay. Three days later, just call me in the yard."

Ye Muxue looked at the mother and daughter and said nothing more. She went straight into the mountain and sea space… To the mother and daughter, the person disappeared in a flash.
