Big brother, he is frail

Pingcheng has been built for a long time, hundreds of years at least. The foot of the city wall surrounded by bluestone bricks is covered with moss, and the color of the green bricks gradually fades, leaving mottled history.Compared with immortal cultivators, there are more ordinary people living here.Looking around, it is an ordinary small town.

The two got off the carriage at the east gate of Pingcheng, and entering the city was a bustling city street.There are various stalls on the street, and the vendors are shouting enthusiastically.Eat, play, everything.There are also many shops here, most of which sell things that ordinary people need to use. After walking down the street, Lu Xinglan also saw a shop that provided weapons for immortal cultivators.

I went in and took a look. The quality of these weapons was average, except for a little spiritual power, they were no different from ordinary weapons.

There are very few immortal cultivators in Pingcheng. Here, one can be called a master at the Qi refining stage.This may also be the reason, Pingcheng is surprisingly peaceful, and there is no situation where several families compete for hegemony in the novel.

Shen Xizhou's family is a big and well-known family here.Hundreds of members of the whole family live in a huge mansion, full of children and grandchildren, and the family is prosperous.More than half of the business in Pingcheng is controlled by the Shen family, which can be regarded as the only one.

The head of the Shen family is an old man who usually doesn't care about things. He is in the late stage of the Qi refining stage, but it may be difficult to enter the foundation building stage in his lifetime.Mr. Shen has four sons, and Shen Xizhou's father is his eldest son, who is in the middle of the Qi refining period and can be called a master.But Shen Xizhou's mother is an ordinary person without any spiritual power.

Their love was full of twists and turns, but fortunately, they had two sons with outstanding talents, and both of them went to Xianmen to practice.

There is a black plaque hanging on the vermilion gate, engraved with the word "Shen Fu" on it, decorated with gold rims, showing a sense of pride.Two stone lions stand on the left and right, mighty and imposing.At the main entrance, two guards stood listlessly in front of the door.After Lu Xinglan and Shen Xizhou approached, one of them noticed Shen Xizhou and said excitedly, "Master Shen Xizhou!? Are you back?"

However, Shen Xizhou said directly and coldly: "I want to go in."

The guard was very embarrassed by Shen Xizhou's cold attitude, he gave a few apologetic laughs, and opened the door swiftly.

It's not that Shen Xizhou is indifferent, it's just that he has long been disappointed in this place.Shen Xizhou's treatment in the family is not very good. He usually has a low sense of presence in the family, and he has no special friends. Except for his parents, he always stays alone.

There are probably two reasons for this. One is that Shen Xizhou's useless storyline when he was a child. Before his talent was revealed, he couldn't even perceive a trace of aura.Mr. Shen, who was more optimistic about strength, was very disappointed, so he left him alone.The other children took Shen Xizhou as a joke, because how could a normal person not even perceive aura?

Even the servants of the Shen family looked down on him, because even if they were servants, they had all stepped into the Qi refining stage, and in terms of strength, Shen Xizhou couldn't withstand a punch from them.The guard just now, when Shen Xizhou was down and down, gave him a lot of cold eyes.

Although Shen Xizhou's parents were protecting him, they couldn't be by Shen Xizhou's side all the time, so Shen Xizhou was often bullied.

The second point is because Mr. Shen doesn't like Shen Xizhou's mother.As the eldest son, and he was still in the middle of the Qi refining period, among the four children, Old Man Shen was the most attentive to Father Shen, so much so that he aroused the jealousy and hatred of his other younger brothers.

With Father Shen's strength, he could find an excellent woman of the right family in Pingcheng, but what Old Man Shen didn't expect was that Father Shen would devote himself to an ordinary woman who couldn't even enter her body, which made Old Man Shen very sad. angry.Coupled with the embellishments of those three younger brothers, old man Shen became more and more loathing to Shen's mother, and even neglected Shen's father, not to mention Shen Xizhou, who was as useless as his mother.

However, because Shen Xizhou's elder brother is very talented, and he went to practice in the sect, which gave him a lot of face, so he treated his elder brother very well.

When reading the novel, Lu Xinglan was really pissed off by this bad old man's prejudice.Fortunately, Shen Xizhou's strength broke through later, and he slapped those fellow clansmen who looked down on him fiercely, and the sullenness in Lu Xinglan's heart was swept away, which was quite refreshing.

In the Shen family, Shen Xizhou was most worried about his parents.

The interior of Shen's mansion is beautifully furnished, the buildings are in the garden, the small bridges are flowing, and the fragrance of flowers is strong. One can tell that the people living here are living a delicate and enjoyable life.The gatekeeper ran away along a small path, probably to inform Mr. Shen of Shen Xizhou's return.Shen Xizhou ignored him, and walked the opposite direction with Lu Xinglan.

They also met many people along the way, and all of them turned pale with shock when they saw Shen Xizhou.

"Why did he come back? Didn't he say he went to Lingyunzong?"

"Shen Xizhou is back, it looks like the mansion is going to be in chaos again."

"You said, did he get driven back by Ling Yunzong?"

"It must be so. I said, how could Shen Xizhou have joined that kind of martial art? But who is that person next to him?"

The men whispered, thinking they couldn't hear.In fact, Lu Xinglan heard it verbatim.Even though Shen Xizhou had shown them his strength, after many days, these people forgot the shock at that time and began to deceive themselves again.

In their eyes, the image of Shen Xizhou as a waste wood is deeply ingrained, and they are unwilling to believe that Shen Xizhou has become very powerful.

Lu Xinglan really couldn't understand their advice to Shen Xizhou, his brows were cold, and he glanced at them displeasedly, those people immediately broke into a cold sweat and shut up.

Just now Lu Xinglan used a small amount of coercion to immobilize them, which was considered a small punishment.

"You don't need to be as knowledgeable as them." Shen Xizhou was very happy that Lu Xinglan vented his anger for him, but those people were not worth paying attention to.

"Okay." Lu Xinglan put away his coercion and ignored those people.

Following that path, the two entered a courtyard.

The yard was kept very clean, a few bamboos were planted beside it, and under the bamboos was a stone table with a chessboard on it.The black and white pieces are still on the top, it seems to be an endgame waiting to be solved.

Just looking at this small yard, you can feel the elegance and noble taste of the people who take care of it.

However, what is incompatible with this courtyard is the strong smell of herbs that lingers in the air.The place where the smell of medicine comes from is that house.

Lu Xinglan noticed that before entering the room, Shen Xizhou had a solemn expression and clenched his fists.But it was only for a moment, Shen Xizhou relaxed in less than a second, and restored his original expression, so fast that Lu Xinglan thought that Shen Xizhou's tension just now did not exist.

"I'm back." Shen Xizhou pushed open the door and said softly.

Walking through the living room and entering the bedroom, the first thing Lu Xinglan saw was the beautiful woman lying on the bed. Her eyes were slightly closed, her expression was peaceful, as if she was asleep.But Lu Xinglan knew that she was in a coma and it was difficult to wake up.

Shen Xizhou's mother suffered from a strange disease and had been comatose for nearly a year.Any doctor invited said that he had never seen this kind of disease, and expressed that he was helpless.Shen Xizhou's elder brother also invited a doctor from his sect to diagnose his mother, and the doctor said that only a heavenly spiritual plant could decipher it.Moreover, not all celestial spirit plants are effective. If she uses them wrongly, there may be side effects, making her condition worse, and she will never be able to wake up. It is best to find the blood ganoderma that can cure all diseases.

This is also the reason why Shen Xizhou wanted to get the blood ganoderma urgently.

It's a pity that the blood ganoderma is not a real blood ganoderma, and it has no effect.

Shen Xizhou's mother was lying quietly on the bed, even in a coma, she kept the corners of her mouth upturned, which shows that she must be a person who likes to smile very much, and at the same time, she is also a very gentle person.Maybe she is very ordinary, has no spiritual power, and even made her youngest son suffer in the family because of her humble status, but she is still a great mother who taught Shen Xizhou many things.

"Don't worry, it will definitely get better." Lu Xinglan said silently.He was an affirmative sentence, because in the original book, Shen's mother finally woke up, so Lu Xinglan wasn't too worried.

Of course, if the medicine could be obtained quickly, Lu Xinglan would have already reminded Shen Xizhou.But the medicine is actually somewhere in the relic of the sword master of reincarnation, and it will take half a year for the relic to be opened.When Shen Xizhou entered the Yifu, he would know this information, and there was no need for Lu Xinglan to remind him.On the contrary, if Lu Xinglan mentioned it now, it would arouse Shen Xizhou's suspicion.

He didn't want to reveal the identity of the person who pierced the book.

Shen Xizhou's father, Shen Wenrong, was a man with a handsome face, dressed in green clothes, and a gentle and refined man.Seeing Shen Xizhou, he got up excitedly and said, "You're back?"

Shen Xizhou asked: "How is mother?"

Shen Wenrong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's still the same, she hasn't woken up, and she has to use herbs to adjust her body. By the way, who is this?"

It was the first time he saw Shen Xizhou take someone home.You must know that Shen Xizhou has a withdrawn personality and doesn't like to communicate with people, let alone bring friends home.

"This is my senior brother Lu Xinglan. I have received a lot of care from him in Lingyun Sect." Shen Xizhou introduced.

In fact, this is the opposite, Lu Xinglan is the one who has been taken care of all the time.He smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Hello Uncle."

"Xiao Lu, thank you for taking care of our family Xizhou. He has a low temper and doesn't like to talk. I'm afraid he won't be used to being in Lingyunzong."

"There's nothing there," Lu Xinglan smiled slightly, "Shen Xizhou is already a respected Fourth Senior Brother in the sect!"

Shen Wenrong didn't know what fourth senior brother meant in Lingyun Sect, he just thought it was an ordinary title.Shen Xizhou seemed to be doing well, so he felt relieved.

He sighed: "It would be great if your brother came back, our family hasn't been together for a long time."

After that, Lu Xinglan told Shen Wenrong many interesting things about Lingyunzong, especially about Shen Xizhou.Only then did Shen Wenrong realize that his son had really grown up, and now he had become the true disciple of the Lingyun Sect Master.

But Shen Wenrong suddenly thought, since Lu Xinglan is Shen Xizhou's senior brother, it means that Lu Xinglan is even stronger, doesn't it?

"Is it the elder brother of Lingyunzong?" Shen Wenrong stroked his chin, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt the name was very familiar.After reminiscing for a long time, he finally remembered that the elder brother of Lingyun Sect is called Lu Xinglan! ?

It is said that Lu Xinglan was originally an ordinary child in a small mountain village, but when he was 15 years old, he was suddenly taken away by the head of Lingyun Sect and became his first true disciple.

Generally, the affairs of the sect are not rumored, and ordinary people rarely know about the cultivators.But this happened outside the sect, and many people had seen it before. It was quite a sensation at the time, so Lu Xinglan's reputation outside the sect was relatively loud.

Lu Xinglan lived up to everyone's expectations and used his own strength to prove that he was indeed qualified as a senior brother.

Unexpectedly, his son met such a powerful person.

As he spoke, a very pleasant smell suddenly wafted from the tip of Lu Xinglan's nose.Following the aroma to the living room, Shen Xizhou had already placed dishes on the table.Obviously these are just dishes made of ordinary meat and vegetables, but each dish is quite exquisite in presentation and looks very delicious, not bad compared to a five-star chef.

Lu Xinglan stared at the dishes: "Xi Zhou, can you cook?" And it looks pretty good!

Shen Wenrong said with a smile: "Xizhou's dishes are delicious."

Shen Xizhou handed over a pair of chopsticks and said, "Brother, would you like to try it?"

Lu Xinglan hadn't eaten for a long time, and there was no taste in his mouth.The sudden deliciousness ripples in the mouth, crispy and delicious, oily but not greasy, which makes people have endless aftertaste.

His junior brother, he is too omnipotent!

"It's delicious, Xizhou, you're so good!" Lu Xinglan was full of praise.

Seeing that Lu Xinglan was satisfied with his meal, the corners of Shen Xizhou's lips rose slightly, obviously in a good mood.

Shen Wenrong looked at them with a smile on the side, thinking, Shen Xizhou and Lu Xinglan have a really good relationship, he hasn't seen Shen Xizhou's heartfelt smile for a long time.

When the three of them were eating, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a person walked in swaggeringly, saying, "Patriarch Shen asked you to go to the dining room and have dinner together."

The cheerful atmosphere was abruptly interrupted, Shen Xizhou hadn't eaten a few mouthfuls of the dishes he had cooked with great difficulty, coupled with the man's arrogant tone, Lu Xinglan frowned unhappily.

"No." Shen Xizhou glanced at the man, and said these two words coldly.
