Chapter 620 – The Old Mansion

Chapter 620 The Old House
It seems that a lot has happened in the secular world during these hundred years.

Xu Chuniang shook her head, and followed the direction of the Xu family village in her memory, and it did not take long to walk to the village.

At the entrance of the village, there were a few children playing around, mentioning the Husbandman and the public school in their words, causing Xu Chuniang to be curious for a while.

She walked over and questioned a few people, “What was that you guys were talking about just now, the husband’s son and the public school?”

The children glanced at her warily, kept their mouths shut, and did not answer.

One of the bolder girls, seeing that Xu Chuniang didn’t look like a bad person, asked instead of answering.

“Where are you from that you don’t even know about the Husbandman and the public school?”

“I used to be someone who lived here, I just haven’t been back for a long time and haven’t heard of these.”

“You used to live here? How come I haven’t seen you before?”

The girl blinked suspiciously, not dwelling too much on that point.

“A husband is a gentleman who teaches, and a public school is a place where we learn to read and write.

I’ve heard that there are Husbandmen and Public Schools out there as well, where did you come from that you don’t even know about these.”

Xu Chuniang touched her nose in some embarrassment, why did she feel that she was being despised by a girl child.

“That …… I came back from a very far away place, may I ask if this is Xu Family Village?”

“Of course it’s the Xu Family Village, who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for ……”

Subconsciously, Xu Chuniang then wanted to say the names of her mother and brother, and only when she came back to her senses did she remember that they were mostly no longer alive.

“Forget it, you wouldn’t know even if I told you, I’d better go look for them myself.”

Shaking her head, Xu Chuniang crossed over a few children and walked towards the location of her old home in the village.

Originally, she had thought that the Xu family in Shuanggui Lane was gone, and that her old home must have been deserted for a long time.

However, not long after entering the village, she saw seven or eight bright green brick houses from afar, replacing the once dilapidated and broken huts.

Xu Chunniang originally silent heart, jumped up.

It looks like they have moved back from Shuanggui Lane.

I just don’t know what has happened in the past hundred years, and when they moved back from Shuanggui Lane.

Xu Chuniang pondered for a moment, directly utilizing the Great Diffusion Technique to begin deduction, and soon had an answer.

It turned out that during these hundred years, there was no peace on earth, and the war had even spread to Taiping County.

In order to escape, the Xu family moved back to the village from the county.

It wasn’t until the world was pacified during these twenty to thirty years that the people’s lives got better.

Xu Chuniang approached cautiously, and could hear the sounds of talking coming from the house, the sound of rushing water, and the playful laughter of children running about.

She could no longer hold back and quietly released her divine sense, sweeping through all the corners of the house.

When her divine sense swept through the ancestral hall and saw the spirit table in the hall, she was finally certain that this was his former home.

The people in the house were the descendants of Ah Brother and Sister.

Xu Chuniang’s eyes were slightly moist, and her figure disappeared in place, suddenly appearing in the ancestral hall.

Looking at the neat rows of spirit seats in the ancestral hall, her heart seemed to have a thousand words to say, but in the end, she was only silent and took a side of incense to light, inserted in the incense burner.

Cultivation is the method of transcendence, but it is a pity that although she has the cultivation of YuanYing, so far she has not been transcended.

Watching the incense in the furnace burn to ashes, Xu Chuniang’s mind gradually regained its calm.

As a YuanYing cultivator, her Taoist heart had long been incomparably firm.

The road was long and difficult, but she would keep moving forward.

After leaving the ancestral hall, Xu Chuniang had originally planned to leave quietly, but in the end, she still knocked on the Xu family’s door.

“Who is it?”

A middle-aged woman with a slightly chubby figure pulled open the door and looked her over several times back and forth with a puzzled expression. “Who are you?”

Xu Chuniang opened her mouth, but in the end, she failed to reveal her identity, only saying, “I’m a traveling cultivator who happens to be passing through here.”

“A traveling monk?”

The woman looked at her a few more times with some caution, muttering in a low voice, “Really, it can’t be a lie, can it?”

Xu Chuniang did not argue, “If the children in your house have spiritual roots, they can follow me to the mountains to cultivate.”

Saying so, she slightly picked her fingertips, a flash of fire sprouting out of thin air, causing the surrounding temperature to suddenly become higher.

“Gosh, it really is an immortal with cultivation!”

The woman’s eyes lit up, changing her previous skeptical attitude and welcoming Xu Chuniang in respectfully.

“It was me who was much too slow in the party, don’t blame the Immortal.”

“Immortals don’t dare to be called that, I’m just a cultivator.”

Xu Chuniang shook her head, how could she blame them?

The woman seemed to understand, and after inviting her to sit down in the hall, she staggered over to the large family.

“Second sister-in-law, you can’t be mistaken, even if there are immortals, can they come to a small place like our Xu Clan Village?”

The woman known as Second Sister-in-Law snorted coldly, “You’ll all know when you see it in a while, that Immortal’s aura is just different from us mere mortals.”

The rest of the people walked into the hall with skepticism, and in order to convince them, Xu Chuniang had to perform a few more minor magic spells.

“Immortal, still really immortal!”

“In the early years, I heard that this Xu family’s ancestors had produced immortals, and after marrying over for so many years, I didn’t notice any difference, but now I’ve seen it.”

“Immortal above, please accept a bow from my little one.”

Xu Chuniang was about to stop her, but on second thought, putting on the appearance of a “senior” would make them more convinced.

Moreover, these people were technically her juniors, so let’s pay our respects.

After worshipping the “Immortal”, the whole family stood in a neat and tidy manner.

“Immortal, all of my children are here, look carefully, do they have spiritual roots?”

Xu Chuniang nodded slightly, her divine sense sweeping over the nine children in the room, her gaze landing on the last two.

“The two of them harbor spirit roots, they can follow me to the mountains to cultivate.”

The crowd was shocked and delighted, they originally didn’t hold much hope, but they didn’t expect their own children, to really get into the immortal’s eyes.

“Immortal take a closer look, don’t the other seven have spiritual roots?”

Xu Chuniang shook her head and looked towards the two children who carried spiritual roots.

“Cultivation is difficult, once you follow me up the mountain, it will be difficult to have the opportunity to reunite with your family in the future, have you thought about it?”

Hearing this, one of the boys shook his head loudly and even wailed.

“I don’t want to cultivate, I don’t want to go up the mountain, woo woo ……”

Although the other girl didn’t cry, there was still some hesitation in her expression, not knowing how to choose.

The boy’s mother lifted him and slapped him hard on his butt.

“Cultivation is a first class good thing, can become immortal, the next person wants such an opportunity can’t even beg for it, you still dare not to go?”

She scolded while falling into tears.

She also does not want to send the only ten year old baby away, but as a mother …… can not delay her son’s future ah.

However, no matter how she scolded, the boy is still a bite dead, not willing to go to the mountain practice.

The boy’s mother wiped a handful of tears, gritted his teeth.

“Immortal, this child is spoiled by us, you don’t need to care about him, just bring him directly to the mountain.”
