In the evening, the townspeople arranged a room for Lu Xun to rest.
Su Qingheng used up the last invisibility talisman, avoided the townspeople, and came to Lu Xun's room.
The two were going to discuss their next move, but just as Lu Xun raised his head, there was a knock on the door.
"Lu Yuan, are you asleep?"
Seeing that Su Qingheng was hiding, Lu Xun went to open the door, and there was a woman in a headscarf standing outside the door during the day.
"Getting ready for bed, what's wrong?"
"That's right. Although your mother is from our town, your mother married out after all, and your uncle has passed away. The rules of our town are not to admit outsiders."
Seeing that Lu Xun didn't respond, the woman said again.
"Since you plan to live here, the old patriarch wants to take you to our ancestral hall to enter a genealogy, so that you can be regarded as a person from Jiangke Town."
Lu Xun looked at the woman and raised a smile of unknown meaning.
Enter a genealogy, so that he can be sacrificed conveniently.
The woman felt guilty for a while when Lu Xun looked at her, and she laughed dryly, "You are new here and don't know the way, so I'll take you there."
"OK……"
Lu Xun answered straightforwardly, and the woman looked at Lu Xun in surprise. She thought it would take a while, but she didn't expect the other party to agree so quickly.
Lu Xun returned to his silly and ignorant appearance again, and the woman was relieved, she was a poor scholar who had never seen the world, how could she show that look.
"Then let's go, the old patriarch and others should already be waiting in the ancestral hall."
Lu Xun followed her and left the room.
Jiangke Town at night is too quiet, the small road is pitch black, the woman leads the way with an oil lamp, and looks back from time to time, worrying that Lu Xun has not followed.
The room where Lu Xun lived was some distance away from the ancestral hall. As the woman said, when they arrived, there were already many people standing in the ancestral hall.
The old patriarch sat in front of the square wooden table, flipping through the genealogy in his hand, and put the pen and ink aside.
"Lu Yuan is coming..."
One of them yelled, and the old patriarch was supported and stood up from his seat.
"Lu Yuan, your uncle is not alive. Our Jiangke Town will take you in for your uncle. The reason, Ahua, has already told you. This is the rule of our Jiangke Town, no outsiders are allowed. But your life experience is pitiful, We also don't have the heart to let you wander outside and live a precarious life."
The old patriarch's words were eloquent and affectionate, as if he really felt sorry for Lu Yuan as a homeless child.
"Son, are you willing to join our family tree in Jiangke Town?"
Lu Xun coughed, and after attracting everyone's attention, he looked at the old patriarch gratefully.
"The old patriarch didn't want to break the rules by doing this. Since you are all so enthusiastic about taking me in, of course I will abide by Jiangke Town's rules."
"This is a promise..."
The townspeople breathed a sigh of relief, and one of the townspeople said to the patriarch: "Since Lu Yuan has agreed, the old patriarch should start quickly."
The old patriarch stroked his beard, his voice was old and hoarse, "Lu Yuan is tired after traveling all day, so let's keep things simple and end early."
Honestly speaking, it's really simple.
Someone picked up two sticks of incense from the altar table of the ancestral hall, lit them on a candle and handed them to the old patriarch. After paying homage to the ancestors of Xiajiang Ke Town, the old patriarch added Lu Yuan's name on the genealogy .
Speaking of which, there was nothing wrong with Lu Xun, he stood aside, watched them light incense and worship, and watched them write Lu Yuan's name on the genealogy, which was considered a simplified version of the genealogy.
"Alright, it's getting late, which one of you will send Lu Yuan back?"
"Don't bother, I remembered it on the way here, I'll just go back by myself. After a busy day, everyone is very tired."
Lu Xun waved his hand and refused, Su Qingheng was still in his room, it would be bad if they were sent back and forth like this.
He said so, and everyone did not insist.
Now that Lu Yuan has entered the family tree, it is a foregone conclusion.In their eyes, Lu Xunhe was a dying person, so there was no need to waste time with his hypocritical politeness.
The townspeople who were still enthusiastic about Lu Xun during the day now looked at Lu Xun as if they were looking at a dead person.
Anyone can see such an obvious gap, but Lu Yuan can't.
Lu Xun was always in a hurry to play the role of a stupid scholar, and politely greeted everyone good night.
The more stupid and ignorant Lu Yuan was, the more reassured the townspeople felt about him. They took the oil lamp that the townspeople handed him and walked in the direction they came from.
Jiangke Town is located in a remote place, and even the passing of the night has a ghostly gloomy air.When passing by, there was a strange aura in the field, Lu Xun frowned, suddenly vigilant.
There was a cool breeze blowing from behind, and when Lu Xun turned his head, a black figure skipped in front of his eyes and headed in another direction, and Lu Xun followed directly without even thinking about it.
The figure slipped uncomfortably, probably because he wanted Lu Xun to follow.One ran and the other chased, and soon broke into the forest during the day.
The man in black didn't run forward, but stopped, turned around and faced Lu Xun.
"It's you……"
Lu Xun couldn't say it was an accident, he raised his eyebrows, and his voice was cold.
The man in black had a mask on his face, and the demonic energy from his body had been suppressed. It was the masked demon that Lu Xun met two years ago when he went down the mountain to practice.
"Although there is no need to explain it to you, I still want to say that whether it is cultivating Taoism or cultivating demons, there will be some casual cultivators."
"So, you ran all the way to Jiangke Town just to tell me that this incident was done by casual cultivators and has nothing to do with your demon clan." Lu Xun raised his eyebrows and said again.
"Why didn't I know that the demons, who are full of evil, still care about their reputation so much."
"Then you know now." The Masked Demon Cultivator smiled softly, "But you're right, I didn't come here to explain this."
Lu Xun saw that he didn't answer, and the masked devil said again: "I'm here for you."
"Oh?"
Lu Xun took out the jade pendant that was shattered that day from the storage ring, shook it in front of Moxiu, and said, "Is it for me, or for it?"
"You should have seen it."
Lu Xun nodded and said nothing, he knew that the mask demon was referring to something that happened to the original owner in the magic cave.What Lu Xun has always been concerned about is whether the original owner has colluded with the demons, but he still can't get the answer.
The demon cultivator appeared just in time, and Lu Xun was about to take some words from him.
"Nothing to say?"
"What do you want me to say?"
Lu Xun played Tai Chi with him, this masked devil must know a lot, Lu Xun had to think about talking to him a little bit, the devil didn't seem to be fooled, and left a note for Lu Xun.
Did he know that he had no memory, so he deliberately showed him what happened to the original owner when he was a child, or was he trying to use his childhood memory to test something, or did he have another purpose?
The two stared at each other in silence, and in the end Moxiu was defeated first, "I was in the dungeon at the time, but you asked me about Jiang Chuchu's whereabouts several times. Now, why are you two..."
Moxiu didn't continue talking.
Lu Xun thought about it, and found an appropriate question to ask him, "Why did Chuchu become the owner of Zhaixing Tower?"
"This...you might as well ask her yourself." The masked demon cultivator stared at Lu Xun for a while, and was a little annoyed when he saw that he didn't intend to continue asking.
"If you two have something to say, can't you contact me yourself? Why do you always treat me like a carrier pigeon? I'm very busy."
always?
Therefore, the original owner had contact with Jiang Chuchu.It was still through the magic mask in front of him, and more than once.
It can be regarded as a useful piece of information, but Lu Xun wants to know the content of the message.
He thought that the original owner hadn't contacted Jiang Chuchu, that's why Moxiu wrote him a note saying "Zhaixinglou".But Moxiu's words are enough to show that the two are related, so why leave him a note?
Jiang Chuchu sent a message to the original owner, so he must know the original owner's identity.
But Pei Yu knew Jiang Chuchu again, and listening to Pei Yu's narration, it seemed that Jiang Chuchu didn't know that the original owner was a disciple of Xuanshan Sect.
"What message did you pass on for her this time?"
Moxiu looked at Lu Xun a few times, feeling a little puzzled. "You told me not to send messages for her before, why do you want to hear it again?"
"Don't tell me I'm leaving..." Lu Xun glanced at him indifferently, then turned around and pretended to leave.
Moxiu hurriedly called to him, "Wait, let me tell you. If I don't get the message right, this woman will come to my cave to block me again. I'm Moxiu. What's the matter if she keeps blocking me all day long?" ?”
Moxiu complained for a while before saying: "She said that no one can stop what she wants to do, even you."
"That's it?" Lu Xun raised his eyebrows, such a short sentence, Lu Xun couldn't analyze anything else.
"Also, she will go to the Xianmen Conference in the next year, and she wants to have a face-to-face meeting with you."
The Xianmen Conference is held once every three to five years, and the original owner attended it when he was 15 years old.All the top-ranking disciples in the fairy sect can participate, and it is said that it is a competition and competition between sects.
There must be Gu Yunzhou and Pei Yu in the Xuanshan faction's entry list.Su Qingheng has stepped into the Golden Core stage in one fell swoop this time, so he will definitely be asked to participate.As for Lu Xun, he probably couldn't escape either.
That was indeed a good time. Although Zhaixinglou is not a family of the Immortal Sect, it has a special status in the Immortal Sect. Even if you don't participate, it is not surprising to appear in the Immortal Sect Conference.
In addition to the disciples of various sects competing with each other, there is also a sect of immortals who will also go together, which can be regarded as an exchange meeting.
Lu Xun asked him, "Are you finished?"
Moxiu nodded.
"Then you go..."
Moxiu stood motionless, and Lu Xun glanced at him. "If you have something to say, finish it at once."
"Please give her an answer, I don't want to wake up every day and see her standing by my bedside."
Lu Xun: "..."
"it is good……"
Moxiu was wearing a mask, but Lu Xun saw a look of excitement in his eyes, "Do you agree? Then tell me, and I will pass it on for you."
"It's over..."
"Ah?" Moxiu was stunned for a moment before realizing that Lu Xun's voice was not in response to him, but in response to Jiang Chuchu's sentence - I want to talk to you face to face.
"Just one answer?"
Lu Xun looked at him without answering, with a casual expression as if asking: Otherwise?
Moxiu hesitated to speak, and finally turned around and left. At least he gave an answer, so it can be regarded as a job?
After Moxiu left, Lu Xun returned to the residence with the oil lamp.
Seeing him coming in, Su Qingheng said without looking back, "Brother, the bed has been made."
Lu Xun responded and took off his coat. Su Qingheng reached out to take his clothes and wanted to hang them up for him. When he touched Lu Xun's clothes, his eyes changed.
The gentle tone was gone, replaced by seriousness and indifference.
"Who did senior brother go to see?"
Lu Xun:?
Su Qingheng met Shanglu Xun's light-colored eyes with a calm tone and a bit of coldness.
"Senior brother is contaminated with demonic energy, is it the demon cultivator wearing a mask?"
Su Qingheng used up the last invisibility talisman, avoided the townspeople, and came to Lu Xun's room.
The two were going to discuss their next move, but just as Lu Xun raised his head, there was a knock on the door.
"Lu Yuan, are you asleep?"
