Chapter 172 Father-Son Love
After a while, he arrived at Luoyun Pavilion.
At this time, in Luoyun Pavilion, there were more than ten Qi Refining monks selecting items for sale, and Li Rong was receiving customers. The scene was very lively.
Lin Tianming rarely had time to spare, and he basically had no involvement in the running of the store. Apart from refining elixirs for a fee, he did not help much. The store was mainly run by Lin Xingli and several uncles from the clan, plus Lin Tianfeng assisted, the management was in order, and the profits were considerable.
However, with his talent and cultivation, the family would not allow him to take care of these trivial matters. The patriarch has repeatedly told him to focus his time on cultivation. Only when his cultivation is high, he can provide the family with Greater help.
Knowing this, he never relaxed and put all his thoughts on cultivation and alchemy.
As for family affairs, they are taken care of by the family elders, so he doesn’t need to worry about them.
However, as a member of the Lin family, we cannot remain indifferent and make our clan members feel that we are too arrogant.
I haven’t been to the store for a long time. It seems that the business during this period is not bad. It is probably to supplement the treasures they got from Gu Tong. With more treasures, the business will naturally improve.
Brother and sister Li Rong are humble and polite, with outstanding ability to observe people's emotions, and are very good at managing the store. They have been working as clerks in Luoyun Pavilion for several months and are already very familiar with the operation of the store. For Luoyun Pavilion, they are very familiar with the operation of the store. business has played a big role.
Seeing Lin Tianming come in, Li Rong quickly put down what he was doing and came over to greet him.
Lin Tianming nodded, and after briefly asking about the situation of Luoyun Pavilion, he walked directly to the third floor.
Entering the secret room on the third floor, Lin Xingli and Lin Xingsu were sitting there. In front of them, there were thick books, obviously recording some accounts.
Seeing Lin Tianming come in, the two stood up to greet him. After clasping fists in greeting, the three of them sat down to drink tea and chat.
Lin Xingli was already prepared for Lin Tianming’s intention.
As early as a few days ago, Lin Shilu had specifically ordered him to prepare the spiritual stones earned by the shop in the past few months. Except for leaving 20,000 spiritual stones as a turnover, all the others were handed over to Lin Tianming to take back to the family.
After chatting for a while, Lin Xingli took out a storage bag and an account book and handed them to Lin Tianming.
Taking the account book, Lin Tianming glanced at the 150,000 spirit stones inside, showing a surprised look.
Luoyun Pavilion has been open for more than four months, and the results have far exceeded their expectations. On average, treasures worth tens of thousands are sold every month.
Over the past few months, Luoyun Pavilion has accumulated hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones. Almost all of the family's early store costs and various treasures worth more than 100,000 have been liquidated.
As a result, it took them only four months to sell out most of the treasures provided by the family, and the profit they earned was at least thirty to forty thousand, enough to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming thought secretly.
“No wonder so many foundation-building families are rushing to take root in medium and large-scale markets. This is indeed a good place to make a fortune!”
In fact, the business of Luoyun Pavilion is booming, no matter It means that all the stores are doing brisk business, but some stores are losing money or even closing.
It's just that Luoyun Pavilion was lucky enough to meet up with the biennial small market gathering, coupled with Ye Pinghai's strong influence and the strategy of entrusting alchemy, the store's business was extremely booming.
Returning to his mind, Lin Tianming clasped his fists towards Lin Xingli and said:
"Uncle Clan, I will leave tomorrow. Grandpa Fifteen is still injured, so Fangshi will have to work hard for you!"
Lin Xingli and Lin Xingsu He smiled, waved his hand and said:
"Tian Ming's words are serious. We are all members of the Lin family. Those of you who are in the foundation period have made greater contributions to the family. We are just doing our part!"
After speaking, Lin Tianming clasped his fists at the two of them, stood up and left the secret room.
After leaving Luoyun Pavilion, he returned directly to the small courtyard of Dongfu without stopping.
Entering the practice room, he sat on the floor, then took out several storage bags and placed them in front of him.
One of them was the storage bag that Lin Xingli gave him. It contained the spiritual stones earned by Luoyun Pavilion in several months, totaling 150,000.
In the other storage bags, there are six Qingxu snake eggs and a large number of Qingxu snakes. In addition, there are three Suixing fruit trees and the ones obtained from Gu Tong. Some treasures.
Looking at the extremely valuable treasure that he would take back to his family alone, Lin Tianming looked extremely solemn after traveling for more than ten days.
This trip is a heavy responsibility and there is no guarantee that anything unexpected will happen.
Fortunately, he was prepared and bought two second-level high-grade talismans from Tianlong Pavilion. With this talisman to protect him, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“I hope everything goes well!”
After muttering in a low voice, Lin Tianming put away all the storage bags and started practicing.
In the early morning of the next day, Lin Tianming greeted Lin Shilu, changed his appearance, and left the cave courtyard directly.
After leaving Fangshi, Lin Tianming flew south for a distance and then released the purple golden eagle.
Sitting on the back of the purple golden eagle, after looking at the map, Lin Tianming's consciousness was widened and he was always paying attention to every move around him.
One person and one beast turned into a black shadow, passing thousands of feet in the sky, flying all the way to the south.
Half a month passed in a flash.
In the evening of this day, a piercing cry came, and the purple golden eagle appeared above Jinjiao Mountain.
Lin Tianming, who was sitting on the back of the purple golden eagle, looked quite tired. Looking at the familiar mountain gate, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
For half a month, he has been traveling alone, which consumes a lot of his consciousness. Without Lin Shilu to take turns to warn him, he does not dare to let the purple golden eagle fly at full speed without any scruples. In case of any emergency, he can just Trouble.
Fortunately, the journey was smoother. Although it was slower than when we started, we arrived at Golden Horn Mountain smoothly.
Arrived around Jinjiao Mountain, which is the boundary of Luoyun Mountain Range. Most of the area is controlled by the Lin family, so it is considered safe.
The purple golden eagle landed at the gate of Jinjiao Mountain, and Lin Tianming jumped off the purple golden eagle's back.
Lin Xingyou, who was in charge of patrolling Jinjiao Mountain, was quite surprised to see him. After all, it had only been four months since they left Jinjiao Mountain and it was really against common sense for them to turn back again.
But seeing that everything was normal in Lin Tianming, it didn’t seem like something big had happened, and Lin Xingyou didn’t say much.
After the two chatted for a while, Lin Tianming directly asked about his father's news.
Lin Xingyou laughed, and then said:
"Tianming, your father has been in retreat. You have been quite tired along the way. You might as well rest for a night first. I will send him a message first and then. If it is not important, Let’s talk about it tomorrow!”
Lin Tianming nodded. Since he had already arrived at Jinjiao Mountain, he was not far away from his clan and out of the danger zone. There was no need to hurry. He happened to be tired too, so it didn't matter if he rested for the night.
"Then let's take a rest today according to what our uncle said!" Lin Tianming replied.
Then Lin Xingyou took Lin Tianming to the depths of Jinjiao Mountain, and soon came to the cave where Lin Xingrong retreated.
Lin Xingyou fired a magic spell and opened Lin Xingrong's cave. Then he said to Lin Tianming:
"Tianming, go in by yourself. I still have a mission, so I will stay here soon." ! ”
"Uncle, please be busy first. We'll get together someday when we have the chance!" Lin Tianming bowed his hands and greeted them politely.
Watching Lin Xingyou leave, Lin Tianming walked into his father's cave. After entering the room, he fell asleep directly, letting go of his tense nerves, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning...
Lin Tianming opened his eyes. After a night of deep sleep, the fatigue of half a month suddenly disappeared without a trace.
He stretched out comfortably, then stood up and left the room, coming to the small courtyard.
My father has been released from seclusion and is sitting in the small courtyard drinking spiritual tea, seemingly waiting for him.
Lin Tianming immediately stepped forward and bowed: "My child has met his father!"
Lin Xingrong smiled and waved his hand: "Sit down, has the journey been smooth?"< br>
Lin Tianming sat opposite Lin Xingrong, then gave his father a cup of spiritual tea and said:
"It's been a smooth journey back to my father!"
"Well... the family plan is to return to the clan once a year. It's only been less than half a year. What happened?" Lin Xingrong asked with some confusion.
Lin Tianming had expected it early and had nothing to hide. Besides, his father was also a high-ranking member of the Lin family, so he had the right to know the top secrets.
Lin Tianming picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the spiritual tea, and then recounted every detail of the past few months.
Hearing that Luoyun Pavilion’s business was booming, Lin Xingrong was very excited. When he learned that Lin Shilu almost fell into the swamp, his expression changed drastically and he asked anxiously:
"How is your fifteenth grandpa doing on Old Man's Day?"
"Father, fifteenth grandpa has recovered more than half now, but he won't be able to recover in a short time. It will take at least several months of hard work to fully recover. It takes practice!"
Lin Tianming explained quickly, and Lin Xingrong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After talking for half a quarter of an hour, Lin Xingrong finally knew what happened and the reason for rushing back.
During the trip to Qianchuanfang City, Lin Tianming made another great contribution. Together with Lin Shilu, he brought back a large amount of treasures to the family and made Luoyun Pavilion's business so popular.
The son strives to win glory for the family, and as a father, his face also has glory.
Lin Xingrong was very excited when he thought of this.
"It's very important. I'll go back to Qingzhu Mountain with you tomorrow. It just so happens that I haven't gone back for a long time!" Lin Xingrong said.
"Okay, let's set off early tomorrow morning!"
After Lin Tianming finished speaking, he took out the nine silver needles he had prepared and handed them to Lin Xingrong and said.
"Father, this set of silver needle instruments is what I have allocated. You are guarding it outside. With this treasure, you will be safer."
When Lin Tianming gave him the instrument, Lin Xingrong was moved. Yu was also a little embarrassed.
As a father, he has not been able to help Lin Tianming in recent years, but now he often takes advantage of him.
Although he coveted the magical weapon, he waved his hand and refused:
"My father has a magical weapon. I got it from the Jin family and the family assigned it to me. Although it is a second-level low-grade weapon, It’s enough for now, keep this complete set of magic tools for yourself!”
Seeing that Lin Xingrong refused to accept it, Lin Tianming knew that his father would be embarrassed, but for his safety, he still had to persuade him.
After a moment of silence, Lin Tianming suddenly thought of something and said with a bright smile on his face.
"Father, the child has received two magical weapons. The other Thousand Beast Flag is more powerful than this silver needle magical weapon. In addition, Grandpa Fifteen gave me a second-level mid-level weapon. Tiangang Sword, this magical weapon is really useless. !”
“If you don’t want it, I will give it to grandpa!”
Hearing this, Lin Xingrong’s face suddenly turned red, he grabbed the nine silver needles, and then said in an old-fashioned way:
"Forget it, forget it, he has lived in the clan for a long time and does not need such a good magic weapon!"
Lin Tianming saw that this trick worked, and his face lit up with joy.
For his father, he found it very interesting. He obviously cared about him very much, but he was always very cold and very strict. But for his grandfather, he could chew on him, never too much, and never felt embarrassed.
Seeing Lin Tianming's sly smile, Lin Xingrong shouted angrily: "You brat, what are you laughing at?"
"Uh...nothing...nothing..." Lin Tianming quickly changed. His expression returned to calm.
"Hmph..."
Lin Xingrong held the nine-foot-long silver needle and looked at it with admiration.
Lin Tianming on the side saw that his father liked this magical artifact. He was in a good mood, and then suggested:
"Father, this set of silver needle magical artifacts doesn't have a name yet. Please give it a name. !”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xingrong fell into thinking. After several breaths passed, he seemed to have an idea.
"This magical weapon is a sneak attack weapon. It is extremely weird. When activated, it disappears without a trace. How about calling it the Shadowless Needle?"
Recalling that when Gu Tong attacked them sneakily, he had no reaction at all. , If Lin Shilu's spiritual consciousness hadn't been strong enough to detect the abnormality one step ahead and push him away with a palm at the critical moment, otherwise he would have definitely died.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming nodded and said: "The Shadowless Needle...is indeed without a trace!"
"Haha...that's it then!"
"It's called Shadowless Needle!" Lin Xingrong said excitedly.
After deciding on the name of the magical artifact, Lin Tianming and his son looked at each other and smiled, then drank tea and chatted.
The father and son had a great time talking to each other, and they were deeply involved in their relationship. They rarely sat alone together like this. With more and more opportunities to get together, the relationship between them seemed to become stronger. Getting closer and closer.
Nowadays, they can still joke, which was impossible in the past.
After chatting for half an hour, Lin Xingrong stood up and prepared to leave.
After all, he has to return to Qingzhu Mountain with Lin Tianming, and the affairs here must be arranged properly.
"Father, this Capsule Fruit is very effective, try it!"
Lin Tianming called to Jin Xingrong, waved his hand, and two Capsule Fruits fell on his hand.
Lin Xingrong didn't show any pretense. He put the Star Fruit into his storage bag, gave him a smile and turned around to leave.
Lin Tianming chuckled and watched his father walk out of the cave before returning to the practice room.
The next morning...
When the sun first shines, the morning glow breaks through the clouds, the warm sunshine shines on the earth, and the golden flower trees sway their branches and leaves in the breeze.
In the quiet and peaceful Jiaojiao Mountain, Lin Tianming and his son walked out of the mountain gate and left the place quietly.
Sitting on the back of the purple golden eagle, the purple golden eagle flew into the clouds, turning the two of them into an afterimage and flying towards the south where Qingzhu Mountain is located.
