Chapter 13: The Lin Family in the County City (Revised)(1/2)
The realm of gathering energy is the starting point of martial arts practice.
What you need to do in this state is to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, integrate it into the body, transform it into true qi, and exist in the meridians in various parts of the body.
The meridians in the human body are very small at the beginning and can only accommodate very little true qi.
If you want to accommodate more true qi, you need to practice the exercises to further expand the meridians, making the meridians bigger and wider.
When the meridians open to a certain level, the accumulated true qi can burst out with a powerful force, and it will be considered as entering the "first level of Qi gathering".
If you want to become stronger, you need to further open up your meridians.
"So far, I have been practicing for five days... Now, the true energy accumulated in the meridians in my body is enough to burst out half of the bull's power!"
In a certain room, Zhou Donghuang, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing, opened his eyes.
"In the future, within five days, I can successfully enter the first level of Qi Gathering and become a martial arts monk at the first level of Qi Gathering!"
As soon as he thought of this, Zhou Donghuang's eyes lit up.
"Today is...the Ziyun Calendar December 20, 1227."
After taking off yesterday's old calendar, Zhou Donghuang looked at the new page of the calendar, and his pupils subconsciously shrank.
In my previous life, it was on this day that someone from the Lin family came from the county town to announce the decision of the head of the Lin family:
In view of the fact that the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce leaked the precious prescriptions of the Lin family, the Lin family no longer supported the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, it expelled Lin Lan, the president of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce, from the Lin family.
Then, his mother Lin Lan was angry to death.
"Young Master! Someone from the Lin family in the county town is here!"
Zhou Donghuang Piaofei's thoughts came in from outside with Grandma Lian's voice and completely collected them.
Suddenly, he left the room and walked towards the living room with Grandma Lian.
"Lin Lan, this is the letter from the Fourth Elder."
As soon as the two of them arrived outside the living room, they heard a sound full of energy coming from inside.
In the living room, a middle-aged man in a green robe and dusty handed a sealed letter to Lin Lan.
"You read this letter first, and I will talk about the decision of the head of the family to you... This is also what the fourth elder asked for when I handed the letter to me before I left."
"Speaking of this, you have to thank the Fourth Elder. If it weren't for the Fourth Elder, you would have been expelled from the Lin family!"
After the middle-aged man handed the letter to Lin Lan, he said to Lin Lan.
When Zhou Donghuang and Grandma Lian walked into the living room together, Lin Lan had already opened the letter in a hurry to read it.
Her face became very ugly in an instant, and her body was even more shaky.
"Mom! What's going on?"
Zhou Donghuang's face changed and he wanted to steal the letter from Lin Lan, but was stopped by Lin Lan.
"Brother, I've finished reading it...you tell me."
Lin Lan took a deep breath and said to the middle-aged man, but her eyes were filled with anger and reluctance.
"In view of the fact that the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce leaked the hemostatic prescription given by the family, from now on, the family no longer supports the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce and at the same time recovered the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce's title deed."
"You have three days to move out of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce... Three days later, the other people sent by the family will take over here and establish a new chamber of commerce."
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "The head of the family decided: If you, Lin Lan, will not step into the family gate if you do not have a family summons in the future."
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused, shook his head and said, "To be honest, your luck is pretty good..."
"Recently, the fourth elder got a better prescription for hemostatic prescription outside and handed it over to the family. The head of the family thought about this and did not expel you from the family."
"Otherwise, you will not be able to not be expelled from the family just by the fault you made!"
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, Zhou Donghuang's face was already gloomy, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his fists subconsciously clamped together.
Sure enough, he guessed it right.
The four elders of the Lin family in the county town did indeed become greedy for the prescription he gave to him. They did not embezzle other things, but instead handed them over to the family in their own name to seek merit and benefits.
Grandma Lian's face also changed.
Just when she was trying to say something, Lin Lan stopped her, and at the same time took a step forward, and said to the middle-aged man in a deep voice: "Please give me a word to the head of the family... and say, I, Lin Lan, thank you for your kindness."
"Um."
The middle-aged man nodded lightly and then said, "Next, I will inform the brother of the second-level clan who is stationed here, that the family will call him back."
The leader of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce who gathers energy at the second level was the family sent by the Lin family in the county town to Qingshan Town to guard the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce.
Now, the Lin family no longer supports the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce, so naturally they will not let him stay here.
The middle-aged man finished speaking and left the living room.
"Miss, why don't you tell him that the hemorrhagic prescription that the fourth elder gave to the family is actually what you want to hand over to the family?"
Grandma Lian was so angry that she jumped straight into her feet. If Lin Lan hadn't stopped her, she would have told her about this.
Zhou Donghuang also looked at Lin Lan.
"The arms can't force your thighs."
Lin Lan smiled bitterly and sighed, and at the same time handed the letter in her hand to Grandma Lian.
Grandma Lian opened it and looked for a while, and her face changed suddenly, "Shameless! So shameless! Lin Tonghong, it's damn!"
Lin Tonghong is the fourth elder of the Lin family in the county town.
At this time, Zhou Donghuang also walked to Grandma Lian and read the content of the letter.
"Lin Lan, I know you peeked at the hemostatic prescription I got. It was the prescription I planned to hand over to the family. If you dare to spread it privately, even if you are not afraid of death, you should think more about your son, who is a waste of martial arts."
Lin Tonghong's letter did not reveal that he had taken Lin Lan's prescription, but also threatened Lin Lan.
I have to say that he is very clever.
"Threat my mother with me?"
Zhou Donghuang had a strange curve on his lips, and he sneered in his heart, "You Lin Tonghong, hand in the prescription for the Lin family, the Lin family will definitely not treat you badly."
"I'll let you have a few more days of spring breeze... After a while, I will go to the county town and walk into the Lin family. I will meet you, the fourth elder of the Lin family!"
Zhou Donghuang knew in his heart that no matter what he said to the Lin family, it would be useless, because the other party could not believe him.
Of course, he can write a better prescription for hemostatic prescription in front of the other party.
But, so what?
It doesn't mean that the fourth elder of the Lin family stole his prescription.
In addition, others owe their own accounts, and with Zhou Donghuang's personality, he prefers to come to the door to settle the bill himself!
"Mom, don't worry... I will give you justice for this."
Zhou Donghuang looked at Lin Lan with a serious expression on his face.
"Donghuang, don't do stupid things... Remember, I just hope you are safe, and nothing else matters."
Lin Lan tried hard to squeeze out a smile and said to Zhou Donghuang: "Also, the head of the family did not expel me from the Lin family. Although I deprived me of the right to return to the Lin family at any time, I am still a member of the Lin family."
Zhou Donghuang knew in his heart that what he cared about most in his life was the identity of the Lin family.
Secondly, the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce.
Not long ago, Chen Dandan's betrayal made his mother heartbroken. Now, what he cares about is his identity as his and the Lin family.
In his previous life, his mother committed suicide because of her expulsion from the Lin family.
And this time, his mother was not expelled from the Lin family, so naturally she would not seek death like she did in her previous life.
"Mom, you and Grandma Lian clean up... Two days later, we will go to Yunxuan Restaurant together. Yunxuan Restaurant. In addition to the place where the food is open to the outside, there is also a courtyard behind which Zhao San lived before. Now that he has left, we can live there."
Zhou Donghuang said to Lin Lan.
The Yunxuan Restaurant that Zhao San gave him became his next place to stay, which made Zhou Donghuang feel more and more that his decision to help Zhao San cure his stubborn disease was correct.
"If you don't say it, I almost forgot... My son is now the owner of Yunxuan Restaurant."
When Lin Lan heard Zhou Donghuang's words, she laughed, and her originally somewhat unsightly gaze also shone rarely.
After the Lin family came to leave with the leader of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce, the second-level guard of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce, Lin Lan summoned a group of maids and guards from the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce and asked them if they were willing to follow them to Yunxuan Restaurant.
If you don't want to, you can receive three months' salary and leave on your own.
Although the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce is about to become history, Lin Lan is not short of this amount of money.
Yunxuan Restaurant is the most profitable industry in Qingshan Town. It makes money every day, which is much better than the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce. In the end, no maid or guard left, and they are all willing to follow.
This also made Lin Lan feel much more relieved.
At the same time, the Lin family's handling of the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce in the county town gradually spread throughout Qingshan Town.
For a moment, the entire Qingshan Town knew that the Magnolia Chamber of Commerce was about to collapse.
Three days later, other people sent by the Lin family in the county town will go to Qingshan Town to establish a new chamber of commerce.
