Chapter 121： ask

In the courtyard, Zhang Tongan was wearing a green robe, standing beside the stone table, watching Zhang Shiping come over, "Shiping."

"Father." Zhang Shiping walked up to Zhang Tong'an. Both of them were of medium build, neither fat nor thin, with similar facial expressions. They stood together. Needless to say, outsiders also knew that they were related.

When Zhang Shiping was leaving last night, he told Zhang Tongan that he had some important matters to ask the elder and patriarch, but he didn't say anything specifically, and Zhang Tongan didn't ask too much. That's why the father and son agreed to set off early in the morning and head to the Zhang family's main hall on White Ape Mountain.

The father and son drove the flying magic weapon and took off from the courtyard of the mansion. After flying for a short distance, Zhang Tong'an pointed to a huge mansion that had just been built not far away, "This is the new house where Shiming got married."

But the father and son did not go down because Zhang Shiming was no longer here, and the matchmaker led Zhang Shiming to the secular world to welcome the bride. There were only a few servants and maidservants left in the mansion. Under the arrangement of the housekeeper, most of the arrangements had been made for the new house. It's all right, there are only some corners and corners left. Looking down from the sky, the two can see that the mansion occupies a large area and has a well-organized layout.

Zhang Tong'an smiled and said to Zhang Shiping: "If Shiping and you get married, then the entire Zhang family will hold a banquet at Baiyuan Mountain and invite all the nearby families to celebrate together."

After all, Zhang Shiming is a mortal, and the wedding can only be held on the side of Little Ape Mountain. The Zhang family and the nearby monk families who came to congratulate are mostly for the sake of Zhang Tongan and Zhang Shiping, the two foundation-building monks. After all, Zhang Shiming is not even a monk of Qi training, no matter how good his martial arts are, he is just a mortal.

But now the wedding can be held at Baiyuan Mountain, the ancestral land of the Zhang family, and the whole family can celebrate it. Among the many immortal cultivators of the Zhang family, only Zhang Shiping, the youngest foundation-building monk in the family, has this weight.

When Zhang Shiping heard his father say this, he shook his head with a smile, "Father, my mother has said it several times last night. Just let me be clean." It was only one night since I came back, and Zhang's mother had already mentioned Zhang Shiping's marriage has happened several times.

Before it was too late, Zhang Shiping could still hug his second brother Zhang Shihao's youngest son, Zhi'er, pretending to be amused, and asked the little grandson to amuse his grandmother. But after it was too late, the child was sleepy and going to bed, Zhang Shiping had no shield. I can only listen to my mother's teachings quietly.

"Your mother is old after all, please be considerate."

Zhang Shiping's mother is a few years younger than his father, and she is in her early fifties now. People say that a life of seventy is rare since ancient times. The decades they have raised their eyebrows together have passed by in a blink of an eye, and how many days will there be left? Speaking of this, Zhang Tong'an's tone was also a little low. It's just a normal thing for a cultivator to die, and he just said he was helpless.

Seeing that the White Ape Mountain was right in front of them, the father and son did not continue this heavy topic. They drove the flying magic weapon to land in front of the Zhang family hall, put away the flying magic weapon, and stepped into the hall together.

In the main hall of the Zhang family, there were no qi training monks on the futons on the left and right sides. Zhang Tongan took out two cyan jade slips from the storage bag. Flew to two places on the mountainside.

Then Zhang Tongan and his son sat cross-legged on the futon, waiting quietly, closing their eyes and resting their minds.

After a cup of tea time, two Foundation Establishment cultivators who lived in the cave in the mountains of the Zhao family arrived one after another. Zhang Qiyue, the eldest elder of the Zhang family, entered the hall with a tung-colored rattan cane, followed by the patriarch Zhang Huaiyu, walking towards the futon at the top.

The two members of the Zhang family, father and son, who had been resting with their eyes closed, opened their eyes and looked at the two who came in when they heard the voice, and got up.

"Greetings to the Great Elder, Patriarch." Zhang Tong'an and his son saluted the two with the etiquette of the juniors of the Zhang family, and then sat down next to them.

"Sit down, how long will you be back this time?" Zhang Qiyue, who was already very old, said weakly. The elder of the Zhang family has stopped fighting in recent years. With his current situation, not to mention fighting against the foundation-building monks of other families, even the ninth-level monks who practice Qi training, the outcome is hard to say.

"I'll leave after Shiming gets married. Actually, I have something to ask this time..." Zhang Shiping thought for a while, then paused.

In fact, he came back this time not all for the wedding of his fourth brother, but because he wanted to ask the two elders of the Zhang family about some things. He wanted to confirm whether his Zhang family ancestors had accepted Master Xu as a disciple.

And of course, by the way, bring back the elixir and spirit herbs that were distributed in the red city before, these things are many and complicated, and the general value is not high, but there are quite a lot of them, and they are worth more than a thousand yuan Lingshi.

"What does Shiping want to ask?" Patriarch Zhang Huaiyu said to Zhang Shiping in a deep voice.

"Then, has our ancestor of the Zhang family ever accepted an apprentice?" Zhang Shiping asked after thinking about it. He didn't directly ask Xu Youdan if he was a disciple of the ancestor of the Zhang family. You should be cautious about matters related to Jindan monks. Maybe the other party doesn't want others Knowing his relationship with the Zhang family, otherwise why Zhang Shiping, a monk who built the foundation of the Zhang family, didn't know that Xu Youdan was carrying the token of the Zhang family's elder Keqing.

Zhang Huaiyu couldn't remember what happened hundreds of years ago and couldn't answer it for a while. In the end, the elder of the Zhang family thought for a while, "According to the records in the clan, the ancestor has a total of five disciples, three from the same family and two disciples with different surnames."

"Then what are the surnames of these two disciples with different surnames?" Zhang Shiping asked, his tone a little anxious.

However, because the books handed down by the Zhang family did not record the names of the two, the elder of the Zhang family didn't know either, so he shook his headI don't know. "

Zhang Shiping was immediately disappointed, if he could know the names of the two and confirm whether what Master Xu said was true or not, no matter whether it was useful or not, he would have a better idea.

However, he didn't dwell too much on this issue. There is no record in the family, so it is basically impossible to know the names of two disciples with different surnames four or five hundred years ago.

The elder of the Zhang family took out a piece of jade slip from his storage bag. With his wrinkled right hand, he handed the jade slip to Zhang Shiping. Zhang Shiping took it and stuck it between his eyebrows. After a few breaths, he checked it with his spiritual sense. He took down the jade slip and handed it back to the elder in disappointment.

The jade slips record the life of the ancestors of the Zhang family. It only said that there were five disciples, but did not mention the specific names.

"Then I don't know if there is an elder Keqing in our Zhang family?" Zhang Shiping turned to ask the patriarch.

"There are two casual cultivators who have a good relationship with our Zhang family." The patriarch said this time.

Zhang Shiping frowned, then shook his head without knowing what he was thinking, "That's okay."

"What exactly do you want to ask, Shiping?" Zhang Tong'an, who was sitting on the side and quietly watching Zhang Shiping, asked.

Zhang Shiping didn't think much about it, he couldn't talk nonsense about this matter, so he didn't answer his father's words.

Several people looked at Zhang Shiping's serious face, and it seemed that they couldn't ask anything, so they changed the topic, and the four chatted in the hall for a while, mainly about how the Zhang family would develop in the future. That is to come to the nearby Chen family. If the Zhang family wants to develop further, there is no doubt that the Chen family will bear the brunt of it.
