Chapter 41 (1/2)
Shen Ruiling picked a wing room in the East and said to them:
”Uncle nine, Zhou Daoyou, I went first.”
”Well, have a rest. I've been on my way all day.” With that, Shen Huanming also picked a room and went in. Zhou Qiao arched at them and chose a room next to Shen Huanming.
Shen Ruiling enters the room. The room is divided into two areas. One is a place for guests, with a table and several chairs. The one inside is a place for practicing meditation. There is a PU mat on a bed. There is also a censer next to it, in which there are bursts of calming fragrance.
Sitting on the Pu mat, Shen Ruiling began to practice by running ”Qingyun Jue”, but the spiritual pulse here was a second-class middle-class product, which could not meet Shen Ruiling's cultivation needs. He took out two spiritual stones from the jade storage box, held one in one hand, and operated the skill to absorb the spiritual power in the spiritual stone.
With Shen Ruiling spitting out his turbid Qi, the two spirit stones in his hand turned into powder and scattered. After almost an hour of meditation and rest, the consumption along the way recovered.
A respectful voice sounded at the door,
”Elder, my master has set up a banquet in the lobby to welcome the elder.”
”OK, I see. I'll come right away.” Shen Ruiling replied and stood up at the same time.
Shen Ruiling opens the door and sees Zhou Qiao coming out. Zhou Qiao laughs:
”Shen Xiaoyou together.”
”Where's my ninth uncle?” Shen Ruiling wondered why Shen Huanming didn't come out.
”Shen Daoyou has been invited by the guard. Let's go quickly.” Then he walked towards the lobby.
The corridor twists and turns, passing through exquisite and gorgeous buildings. Along the way, there are some family servants saluting and saying hello. These mortals have been here for a long time, so they are not so curious about the immortals.
Shen Ruiling ignored them and walked proudly to the lobby with Zhou Qiao. It took about half a column of incense to walk in front of a building.
Shen Ruiling could not help muttering:
”This mansion is really big. It's like a rich family.”
In front of the building, there was a middle-aged man with a gentle look who was dressed up as a scholar at the beginning of Qi training.
Seeing Shen Ruiling, he immediately greeted them with a smile and bowed his hands:
”Please come inside, my father is waiting for you.” The other party is not only enthusiastic, but also poses very low.
Shen Ruiling followed the middle-aged man into the lobby. What they saw was a hall with carved beams and painted buildings. There was also a picture of the lake on the wall. The sunrise in the East was quite poetic. In the hall, several wooden tables have been arranged, which are also carved of sandalwood. Shen Huanming and Shen Huantong are already sitting on the main table.
Seeing the arrival of Shen Ruiling, Shen Huantong got up and welcomed them:
”Two Taoist friends, please sit down.”
Shen Ruiling looked at it and there were only three of them and Shen Huantong on the table. All three of them are friars in the later stage of Qi practice. They came down from Yunbi peak. Shen Huantong with the title of guard can sit with them.
Shen Huantong raised his glass and said to Shen Ruiling:
”Thank you for coming.”
”Although you and I don't know each other well, they are also the children of the same generation in the family. Don't be polite if you guard as one side.” Shen Huantong said.
After a while of greeting,
Shen Huantong pointed to Shen Ruiling and said:
”I've been away from the mountain for many years. I don't know whose child this little friend is. It's a blessing for me to have such cultivation at such a young age.”
”He is the grandson of the second brother's family.”
”It's really a dragon and Phoenix among people.”
”You're welcome.” Shen Ruiling modestly evaded.
……
With the dishes served, Shen Ruiling found that most of them were Lake fresh, and the products in the water accounted for the majority, which looked like they depended on water.
Shen Huantong pointed to several dishes and said:
