The next morning, I said goodbye to Liu Haohao who was still sleeping soundly.

Lu Yuan and Zhang Zhiwei took the gifts and followed the old Taoist priest down Longhu Mountain and headed straight for the Jiangsu Lu family.
When mentioning the Lu family, we have to talk about the four major families.
Lu, Lu, Wang, Gao.
Just like many martial arts worlds, there are many sects, but in addition, there are always a few famous families that are not inferior to the sects.
These four families in the world of one person are just like this.
Except for the Lu family, the other three families all have family crafts.
Such as the Shen Tu of the Wang family, the Ruyi Jin of the Lu family, and the Chu Ma Xian of the Gao family.
The Lu family is the most special.
They have no means of inheritance. Each generation of the Lu family will go to different sects to learn skills, and they will not pass them on to their descendants after learning. They value their promises and use strict family rules and family traditions to constrain the behavior and morality of their children to ensure the continuation of the family.
This makes the Lu family have a very good reputation in the world, and each generation of Lu family children is also very popular with various sects.
After all, compared with talent, good character is more valuable.
Although Lu Yuan and the other two did not deliberately travel at a fast speed.
Perhaps out of face, the old Taoist priest did not learn the "Xiaoyaoyou" given by Lu Yuan, but his own strength is here, and his actions are not inferior to Qinggong.
When the three arrived at Lujia Town, it was just afternoon.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar place, Lu Yuan's mood was still calm.
The three did not speed up anymore, and just walked towards the Lu family compound.
Lu Yuan saw three white-clothed figures from a distance, and just wanted to make a look with Zhang Zhiwei.
The old Taoist priest's loud voice had already spoken, "Haha, Zuo Menchang, slow down!"
Sure enough, the three people who heard the voice stopped and turned around. They were Zuo Ruotong, Cheng Zhen, and Chang Qing, three old acquaintances.
Zuo Ruotong smiled and waved, and at the same time they also noticed Lu Yuan, who they hadn't seen for seven years.
After approaching, after the old Taoist priest had finished greeting the other party and Zhang Zhiwei had finished greeting, Lu Yuan smiled and said, "I miss you so much, Zuo Menchang, Cheng Zhen, and Chang Qing."
This sentence made the smiles on the faces of the three people deepen.
Looking at Lu Yuan from a close distance, Zuo Ruotong's eyes flashed with surprise, and he exclaimed: "The divine firefly is introverted and naturally in harmony with the Tao. Good boy, I can't see through you anymore."
"Well, without your help back then, how could I be who I am now."
Zuo Ruotong shook his head. It was only a matter of time for such a genius to grow up. At most, he helped the other party avoid some detours.
"I'm already regretting it now. I should have tied you to Sanyi earlier. Master, how about we change disciples?" Zuo Ruotong joked.
"Hahaha, this traitor is not worth it!"
The two heads resumed their conversation.
Changqing finally had time to come over and talk, "You kid, is the food in Longhu Mountain so nourishing?"
"What are you talking about? The food in Sanyi is not bad. The main thing is that your beard, brother Changqing, is not worse than other girls if you shave it off."
"Hey, your tone of voice is still the same as before."
The six people walked towards the Lu family with laughter.
On the way, Zuo Ruotong looked at Lu Yuan and recalled the conversation at the dock under Longhu Mountain seven years ago.
At that time, the boy told him to be less roundabout when accepting disciples and be more honest, so as not to lose patience with the disciples who were inspecting him.
At that time, he didn't care at all, and even thought that only if he understood it himself would he be sincere.
As a result, not long after returning to the mountain gate, the child he had placed in the private school at the foot of the mountain for observation just left with a Quanxing demon.
This made Zuo Ruotong blame himself, thinking that he had not guided the other party well, and at the same time, he took Lu Yuan's words seriously for the first time.
When they met today, Zuo Ruotong thought of this matter again and still felt sorry.
The six people moved forward, and the Lu family soon got the news.
The eighty-year-old old man Lu personally led people to greet them. This is the face of the leader of the Taoist sect and the first of the Xuanmen.
The group of people greeted each other for a while.
Lu Yuan also immediately got to know the sects and families present.
Putting aside Sanyi, Longhu and other major families, there are also Tianjin Jiyun Society, Sichuan Huode Sect, Hebei Yanwu Hall, Shandong Yiliu, Jianghu Xiaozhan and other sects and organizations here.
Lu Yuan immediately set his eyes on Huode Sect, and he was very curious about Fire Escape.
Similarly, he also noticed several important characters in the future.
Lu Ci, one of the two patriarchs of the Lu family, Wang Ai, who wears a red jacket and a watermelon-like head, and Guan Shihua, who has a flattering look, pigtails and blush, are all characters in the future Ten Lords.
There are also members of the Thirty-Six Thieves in the near future, Huo Dezong Fengping, who looks like Nezha, and Liu Deshui, a sturdy and honest man with glasses.
Of course, there is also Lu Jin, the heir of Sanyi, who will soon make Zhang Zhiwei famous and will be called "a lifetime of flawlessness".
As for other characters, Lu Yuan has no impression.
He is looking at others here, so naturally someone is also paying attention to him.
However, apart from leaving people with the impression that he is a disciple of the Heavenly Master and has an extraordinary appearance, nothing else can be seen. Not everyone has the same vision as Zuo Ruotong.
After the greetings and introductions, everyone entered the door.
What caught the eye was the brocade Eight Immortals high chair placed in the middle of the longevity hall. In front of the chair was an Eight Immortals table with candles lit on the table, and a picture of the birthday star was hung on the wall behind the chair.
After all, it was the Republic of China period, and birthday banquets for large families were generally quite grand and rich in traditional colors.
Lu Yuan followed the process and walked through it quite freshly.
First, the birthday person dressed up. Old Master Lu wore a brocade funeral dress and sat on a high chair in the birthday hall to accept birthday wishes from family members and guests.
The younger generation of the clan had to go forward and perform the three bows and nine kowtows to express respect and blessings.
After that, relatives, friends and guests went to the hall to pray and say auspicious words, and the eldest son of the Lu family returned the gifts on their behalf.
After that, Old Master Lu distributed money to his descendants, that is, red envelopes, which meant long-lasting blessings.
After the completion, it was already dark, and the guests sat down to eat, but they were still quite reserved at this time.
During the process, the invited music team began to play music, and the guests' birthday gifts began to be displayed.
After everyone had almost finished using their chopsticks, Old Master Lu personally walked around the table and began to give birthday peaches, red eggs, pork trotter noodles and other gifts in return.
After going through this whole process, it was completely dark. Old Master Lu left the stage to rest, and the major Jianghu friends began to drink and chat freely. Lu Xuan, the next head of the Lu family, accompanied the guests.
The place gradually became hot, especially after a few jars of wine, the elders began to link shoulders, and the younger generations also began to hold bowls and make a fuss.
Because of their status as disciples of the Heavenly Master, many people approached Lu Yuan and Zhang Zhiwei to talk.
Zhang Zhiwei didn't pay much attention to people at first, but with Lu Yuan's advance instructions, he had to passively accept the guests.
Compared with his reluctance, Lu Yuan accepted everyone who came, smiling and deliberately holding wine to make the atmosphere hot. After a few rounds, he had already started to talk with Feng Ping, Lu Jin, Wang Lu and several other families.
In the distance, the old Heavenly Master saw that his face was a little dark, and he naturally knew what Lu Yuan was doing.
Zuo Rutong, who noticed the details, looked at Lu Yuan thoughtfully.
But the main master Lu Yuan didn't care about these, and the topic of the younger generation was gradually diverted by him.
"No, Brother Lu, what do you mean by using your own means to celebrate birthdays?" Feng Ping said with a big mouth.
"It means literally, just like my Tianshi Mansion, tomorrow I will use golden light to write a "Longevity" character for Old Master Lu, which not only shows the means, but also throws in the jackpot!"
"Not bad! A good idea, my Wang family can use the magic to paint a "Pine and Crane Picture" to wish Old Master Lu eternal youth!" Wang Ai said with a mouth full of alcohol.
"Then my Lu family will use Ruyi Jin to carve a birthday peach ten steps away and send it to him!" Lu Ci stepped on the stool with high spirits.
"Hiss~! You all have your own means to celebrate birthdays, but I can't set a fire!" Feng Ping hiccuped and felt a little dizzy.
"Oh! This is not simple." Lu Yuan approached, with an inexplicable smile in his eyes, and said: "You jump into the fire escape and get Old Master Lu a jar of osmanthus wine a hundred miles away, which also means long-term wealth and peace!"
Lu Yuan was chatting enthusiastically.
The drama that was supposed to happen at the old Taoist's table was also happening.
Patriarch Wang took Lu Xuan's hand and said, "Brother Lu, look at the younger generations. It's a rare occasion for them to get together. Why don't you let the children play together tomorrow?"
