Ning Caichen left.
He came to say goodbye to Jiang Lin before leaving.
Jiang Lin asked him: "Do you want me to send someone to give you a ride?"
Ning Caichen shook his head: "No need. I was busy when I came here, and I was exhausted. I didn't see the beautiful scenery along the way. This time I go back, it's a good opportunity to see the local customs and people along the way."
After talking to Xiaoqian that day, although he was depressed for a few days, he had obviously let go of a big thing in his heart, and his eyes and brows became much calmer and more open.
Jiang Lin nodded: "That's good. It's a good thing for you scholars to study abroad more and broaden your horizons."
He could see a strong literary talent in Ning Caichen. This man was talented and had great ambitions in his heart. He would definitely have a good future.
Ning Caichen hesitated for a moment before saying, "I won't bother Miss Xiaoqian anymore."
Since he had decided to let it go, he followed her wishes and stopped disturbing Xiaoqian's life.
Just like when he came, he carried a simple bag and left Montenegro on a sunny day.
When Qingyangzi arrived, Huaiyin was casting a spell to water his medicinal field.
She was very resistant to this matter at first, always feeling that Jiang Lin was trying to humiliate her and wear down her spirit.
But later, when he saw Jiang Lin often working in the fields, and all the other monsters in Black Mountain, including the mysterious Lord Xiao Zong, were often dragged by Jiang Lin to turn the fields and pull weeds like himself...
Huaiyin finally realized: she was thinking too much.
The Lord of Black Mountain has no extra meaning.
People just simply like farming.
If the Lord of Black Mountain can grow it, why can’t I
After realizing this, her resistance to farming became much less.
Especially when the first batch of fruits in the medicinal field grew, I saw with my own eyes the seeds grow into tender sprouts, bloom beautiful flowers, and finally grow into precious fruits.
Huaiyin unexpectedly developed a sense of accomplishment.
It seems that farming is not that boring
Later, Ayu sold the herbs for a large sum of money, which went into her pocket...
Tsk, it smells a bit good.
But just because she feels good doesn't mean she can accept being laughed at.
Still, he was laughed at by a junior, his former defeated opponent.
"Tree demon grandma?" Qing Yangzi stood outside the medicinal field, looking at this former opponent whom he could hardly recognize.
The other person was entangled in bad karma and it was obvious that he had done a lot of bad things in the past.
However, Jiang Lin also told him frankly that Huaiyin was now under his command, and he could guarantee to restrain her from doing evil in the future.
If someone seeks revenge on her, Jiang Lin will not intervene. But if a Xuanmen like Kunlun simply wants to punish evil and promote good, then he hopes to give Huaiyin a chance to correct his mistakes.
Qingyangzi was of course happy to do so.
It is easy to kill a demon, but it is much more difficult to convert a demon to do good.
Now that Jiang Lin is willing to take over this mess, why don’t they, Kunlun, sell it
However, no matter how happy we are, we still have to continue to mock.
Qing Yangzi stroked his mustache and laughed, "This medicinal field is growing really well. I didn't expect that the tree demon grandma has such a unique skill in farming."
Huaiyin was wearing a thorny cloth robe suitable for movement. Due to his long-term dealings with the medicinal fields, his aura was much calmer than before.
However, this peace is only an appearance.
She raised her eyelids and glanced at Qing Yangzi, and responded indifferently: "I heard that Kunlun was so poor that the four generations of elite disciples came to Black Mountain to eat and drink for free?"
poverty.
It is Kunlun’s fatal injury.
Qing Yangzi's face turned serious: "What do you mean by freeloading? The Kunlun disciples are practicing in the Black Mountain!"
Huaiyin raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Is it the kind of practice that involves farming, chopping wood and delivering goods every day?"
Qing Yangzi gave her an unfathomable look and said, "Even the tree demon can put down her butcher knife and cultivate the land. So why is it so strange for Kunlun disciples to experience a different life?"
Huaiyin put away the smile on her face and stopped pretending to be nice to him. She said coldly, "Qingyangzi, why haven't you died yet?"
Qing Yangzi laughed and said, "I won't die for now, but you have done too many evil things before. Who knows, you might be struck by lightning and die one day."
Huaiyin looked at him grimly.
Qing Yangzi glared back without showing any weakness.
"Sir, sir, Sister Huaiyin and that Taoist priest from Kunlun are fighting!" Jiang Lin was drawing when A Yue ran in in a panic.
Painting is Jiang Lin’s recent hobby.
As a demon with a long lifespan, he initially indulged in cultivation all day long in order to improve his strength. It was not until he discovered that there were some problems with his progress that he realized he was too eager.
Later, he consciously began to cultivate some hobbies and interests to kill time appropriately.
It was cooking before, and it is painting now.
He had studied painting before and had a solid foundation. With the guidance of Xiaoqian, a famous Chinese painting teacher, he made rapid progress.
"No rush." Jiang Lin added the final stroke.
The painting shows a high-spirited young man in black, with handsome features and a bright look. Who else could it be but Zong Yu
He painted a portrait of Qingluo a few days ago. Qingluo liked it very much and took it away like a treasure.
Later, Zong Yu somehow saw it and pestered Jiang Lin to take a photo as well.
Since he had to practice anyway, Jiang Lin agreed.
He studied the painting in front of him and shook his head: "It lacks some momentum."
"Sir." Ah Yue was a little anxious, "Sister Huaiyin is fighting with the Taoist priest from Kunlun!"
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. Have you forgotten who I am, sir?"
His true form is the spirit of the Black Mountain, and nothing that happens on the Black Mountain can escape his perception.
He had noticed the fight between the two men a long time ago, and naturally realized that although the fight looked fierce, the two actually left room for maneuver.
Nothing will happen.
It is true.
The two sides fought fiercely, and Kunlun's disciples and Black Mountain's monsters watched nervously from the sidelines, fearing that something might happen.
After fighting for a while, the two of them went their separate ways indifferently.
Nothing happened.
Later, this situation occurred every few days.
Later, when Qingyangzi and Huaiyin were fighting again, the girls from Heishan were busy with their own things and didn't even bother to glance at each other.
However, the disciples of Kunlun still squatted on the side and watched diligently every time - but they were not worried that their uncle would suffer a loss, but to observe and learn on the spot.
After staying in Montenegro for some time, Qing Yangzi wrote a letter to his senior brother, the head of the sect.
In his letter, he said that Montenegro was a good place with abundant spiritual energy. There was a lot of land in the mountains, the monsters who farmed the land were very kind, and the food they grew was delicious.
The most important thing is that monsters are all very rich.
They, the disciples of Kunlun, can get paid for helping the monsters, and their lives are much more comfortable than before.
Finally, he said that his disciples all liked this place very much and decided to stay here for a while.
After reading the letter, Kunlun Sect Leader:
What exactly is Montenegro
The disciple left and never came back.
My junior brothers and sisters left and never came back.
The head of Kunlun felt that this matter was extremely inappropriate.
He handed over the matters in his hands to his fellow elders and decided to go and find out the truth on his own.
Then…
The head of Kunlun finally met the legendary Lord of Black Mountain, Jiang Lin.
The head of Kunlun and the lord of Black Mountain hit it off immediately and had a very pleasant conversation.
The head of Kunlun and Jiang Lin got so excited chatting that they made a long-term win-win deal with Heishan.
Black Mountain has abundant resources, fertile soil, and rich spiritual material mineral veins. Unfortunately, due to severe shortage of manpower, it can only shrink into this small Qingshui County.
There is money but no one to make it.
Kunlun is just the opposite: it has a large population and is poor, which just makes up for Montenegro's shortcomings.
The two sides hit it off immediately: in order to cooperate, Kunlun would send some disciples to be stationed in Montenegro to assist Montenegro in developing its business and receive 50% of the profits.
When this decision was first made, A Yu was very unhappy.
This girl is now the housekeeper of Montenegro. She is very protective of her husband and feels that this is too much of a loss for her husband.
Jiang Lin listened to her nagging complaints, and just smiled and touched her head: "You don't understand yet."
When A Yu heard him say this, he naturally didn't understand.
However, she has always admired Jiang Lin. Even if she is confused and not very satisfied, she cannot object since Jiang Lin has made a decision.
The connection between Montenegro and Kunlun naturally became closer.
In the third year, after seeking Jiang Lin's consent, Kunlun even established a small Taoist temple in Heishan, and more disciples stayed there for a long time.
It was also in this year that the first marriage was formed between Kunlun and Heishan.
This is why Jiang Lin chose Kunlun - this sect is the true authentic Xuanmen, adhering to the right path but not pedantic, and does not divide good and evil based on race.
Jiang Lin knew that he would have to leave eventually, and Huaiyin would follow him.
Black Mountain is a treasure land, and the girls there are all beautiful and capable. Unfortunately, when the tree demon grandma selected these girls, she only focused on their beauty. They did not have the strength to defend this treasure land.
If they can't keep the other person, find them someone who can keep the other person.
Kunlun is the target that Jiang Lin is optimistic about.
The girls in Montenegro were not aware of these things, but Zong Yu, who knew some of the truth, could see them.
One day, he stopped Jiang Lin and asked, "Are you... leaving soon?"
Jiang Lin was stunned.
He turned his head and looked at Zong Yu seriously, which was rare.
The person in front of me still looks like a teenager. When he first came, his eyes were still childish and impulsive, but I don’t know when, this childishness has quietly turned into calmness.
Jiang Lin suddenly felt like his free-range child had finally grown up.
He smiled with satisfaction and said, "Xiao Zong has actually learned to think."
Zong Yu was dissatisfied: "Everyone else treats me as a great demon, but you still think I'm a child."
Jiang Lin laughed: "You barely grew up under my watch, so it's not an exaggeration to say that you are a child."
Zong Yu opened his mouth to say something, but when he saw Jiang Lin's smiling eyes, he swallowed the words on his lips and continued to ask: "You haven't answered my question yet, are you leaving?"
Jiang Lin thought for a moment and said, "It's not that urgent, just make preparations in advance."
Zong Yu snorted: "You are so kind."
Jiang Lin said: "They are all good girls, and it is worth my consideration for them."
Zong Yu asked, "What about me? When you take Qingluo away, have you made plans for me?"
Jiang Lin stared at him in surprise and saw that the child seemed to be angry again, staring at him with his beautiful phoenix eyes.
Jiang Lin laughed, and according to his own wishes, he reached out and rubbed his head.
"Why do you think I'd forget you?"
Jiang Lin was even a little confused: "The girls in Heishan are all good girls, and Xiaozong is also a good boy. Moreover, we have been together for a longer time."
"It's just that." He paused, a little embarrassed, "You are different from them."
For the girls from Montenegro, this is their home, all we need to do is to settle them down in Montenegro.
Xiaozong is different.
He came to Montenegro because of himself. Montenegro is not his home, and he doesn't even belong to this world.
Jiang Lin was a little embarrassed: "With your ability, you can live well no matter where you are. But I don't know what to do for your own good."
Zong Yu's expression eased a little, and he said directly: "Then you can take me with you."
Jiang Lin looked at him.
Zong Yu said in a natural tone: "You are going to take Qingluo with you anyway, so it doesn't matter if I join you."
He obviously didn't know at this moment that Jiang Lin was going to take the tree demon grandma away.
It’s not that Jiang Lin hasn’t considered this, it’s just…
"Qingluo's situation is different from yours. I can ensure her safety. She won't be harmed if she follows me. But you..."
"I can also ensure my own safety." Zong Yu immediately interjected.
Jiang Lin hesitated.
Seeing this, Zong Yu immediately said, "If you don't take me with you, I'll be hungry again. If I get hungry for too long and become dizzy, I don't know what I'll do."
"Besides," Zong Yu said, "it's boring to stay in one place for a long time. It's novel and interesting to follow you to different worlds."
Jiang Lin was still hesitating.
Zong Yu simply said, "I'm just telling you. Even if you don't agree, I will find a way to find you. Do you want me to wait for another two thousand years?"
Jiang Lin had a headache.
"Fortunately Qingluo doesn't have as many troubles as you." He sighed.
"I can't take you away directly." The system directly extracts his soul and leaves this world, and the spiritual plant he contracted can stay in the emerald space and leave with him.
"I know." Zong Yu nodded, "I can go find you myself, but I need your help."
"What's the matter?"
Zong Yu said: "Give me a little bit of your spirit."
Originally, he still needed essence and blood, but this body was not his, so Zong Yu did not force it.
Jiang Lin didn't say anything, he drew out a wisp of soul and handed it to Zong Yu.
Zong Yu looked at the faint light floating in his palm, and in front of Jiang Lin, he also extracted a wisp of his soul.
"What are you going to do?" Jiang Lin asked curiously.
Zong Yu didn't say anything. He formed a strange seal with his hands. The two souls merged into one in mid-air, then split into two and sank into the eyebrows of the two people respectively.
Jiang Lin was shocked.
He just felt that he and Zong Yu seemed to have some unbreakable connection in some way, and he could even vaguely sense the other party's thoughts and moods.
This connection is different from a blood contract, and there is no feeling of complete control over the contract object. But this bond seems to be no weaker than a blood contract.
Jiang Lin felt a little uneasy.
He asked Zong Yu: "What is your method?"
"I don't know." Zong Yu spread his hands confidently, "Some inherited memories have begun to appear in my mind. But they are scattered and fragmented, including cultivation techniques and some strange things. This contract just popped up out of nowhere."
Jiang Lin's eyes went dark. "I wonder if you dare to use something related to the soul?"
Zong Yu said confidently: "Don't worry, although I don't know what this is, I can feel that it won't do any harm."
Jiang Lin: “…”
Just now I praised him for being grown up and calm. Now it seems that was just an illusion.
He was so angry that he hit the stupid thing hard on the head.
But beating people up was useless, and Zong Yu said he didn't know how to cancel it.
Jiang Lin observed for a while and was relieved when he was sure that this inexplicable mark, apart from strengthening the connection between himself and Zong Yu, had nothing special about it.
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed.
Huaiyin survived a thunderstorm in Black Mountain. Just as Qingyangzi said, she had done all kinds of evil things in the first half of her life. This thunderstorm was particularly fierce, splitting her body into a black tree trunk.
If it weren't for the spiritual spring in the Emerald Space, she might really not have been able to bear it.
Qingyangzi, who had mocked her every day for being struck by lightning, was silent at this time, and even sent someone to bring her medicinal herbs that could nourish her soul.
Ning Caichen also sent someone to bring the good news of his success, and mentioned in the letter that his family had already chosen a marriage for him, and that the bride was said to be a very gentle, well-educated and sensible lady.
His words in the letter were full of high spirits, with joy overflowing from the paper, and it was obvious that he had let go of the dream.
Jiang Lin showed the letter to Xiaoqian, who smiled and said, "I am relieved that he can find such a happy marriage."
At the beginning of the third year, Ning Caichen had a beautiful daughter. When the baby was one month old, Xiaoqian went to give him a gift. When she came back, she praised the little girl to Jiang Lin for being very cute and lovely.
A few years later, when people mentioned Montenegro, they could not avoid mentioning Kunlun.
Similarly, when talking about Kunlun, we always have to mention Black Mountain.
There is even a legend among the Xuanmen: Kunlun is so powerful that he transformed the Black Mountain with his own strength and made all the demons in the Black Mountain turn to good. His merits are immeasurable.
Only a few who knew the truth felt jealous: What kind of salvation is this? It was obviously Kunlun who relied on Black Mountain to become rich overnight.
Now, when the Taoist priests of Kunlun go out, they can not only eat meat, but also have a house to live in!
We agreed to live in poverty together, but you secretly clung to my thigh.
Why doesn’t the Lord of Black Mountain take a liking to me
Another few decades passed.
Ning Caichen held the highest position among the ministers and had many children and grandchildren around him.
When he resigned from his official position and returned to his hometown to retire, he passed by Heishan and made a special effort to visit Jiang Lin.
He has become a thin and graceful old man, while Jiang Lin is still as young and handsome as he was back then.
"Sir, you are still so young." Ning Caichen said with emotion, "I am already an old man who is about to die."
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "Mortals are different from monsters. As a mortal, you have already achieved success and fame in this life, and you have reached a level that many people cannot reach in their lifetime."
Ning Caichen took a sip of tea leisurely and said, "Yes, in my life, whether at home or in the officialdom, everything has been smooth and happy. There is nothing I am dissatisfied with."
The two drank a cup of tea and played a game of chess.
When Ning Caichen was about to leave, a beautiful lady in white came in holding several scrolls.
Ning Caichen looked at her and was suddenly stunned.
Xiao Qian didn't recognize him, but she felt that he looked familiar and was a mortal. She looked at Jiang Lin with some doubt: "Who are you?"
Ning Caichen stared at her for a moment and smiled: "I am just an old man passing by, passing by this precious place, and I want to ask the owner for a cup of tea."
He smiled at Xiaoqian, bowed to Jiang Lin, and left slowly.
Xiao Qian stared at his back in a daze and said curiously, "I always feel a sense of familiarity with this person."
Jiang Lin put down the chess piece in his hand and said gently, "Perhaps, you have met him before."
"Maybe." But after a meeting, Xiaoqian no longer hesitated and turned around and went to the studio with the painting.
Time always passes quickly for the demon race.
By the time Huaiyin had finally recovered from his injuries, Chiyangzi of Kunlun had also passed away.
Qingyangzi suddenly looked much older and looked like a real old man.
Yan Chixia became the leader of Kunlun.
The system also popped up, reminding Jiang Lin that he could leave.
Jiang Lin held a grand banquet in Heishan and invited the Taoist priests from Kunlun and some monster tribes in the surrounding areas.
He has always been low-key and rarely shows off like this. Many people even saw the legendary Lord of Black Mountain for the first time.
It was the first time they saw Jiang Lin’s true appearance, and also the first time they realized the strength of the Lord of Black Mountain.
Many monsters who had been eyeing Black Mountain gave up the idea after this banquet.
After the banquet, Jiang Lin talked a lot with Yan Chixia alone.
In the second half of the night, he stood alone on the highest cliff of Black Mountain.
The mountain wind howled at the top of the cliff, and the clothes fluttered.
Zong Yu found him.
"Have you told Yan Chixia?"
"Yes." Jiang Lin nodded. "I told him that I will be in seclusion for hundreds of years to strive for a higher realm. Huaiyin will also go overseas to find elixirs for healing. I'll trouble him to take care of Heishan."
Zong Yu said: "Yan Chixia is a good person. Since he has agreed, he will definitely take good care of the Black Mountain monsters. You can rest assured."
Jiang Lin nodded and said to Zong Yu: "Well, Xiao Zong, I will say goodbye to you first."
Zong Yu snorted and laughed, full of confidence: "Don't worry, I'll see you again soon. Remember to prepare a big table of delicious food for me."
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "Okay, I will definitely make a room for you."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
On the second day, the demons of Black Mountain woke up and received a message:
Sir, he may be in seclusion for a hundred years, so don't worry about him.
A hundred years... The girls in Montenegro are all a little melancholy, because the time they have spent with their husbands is only a mere hundred years.
However, even though the master is in seclusion, they cannot relax. They need to work hard and make Montenegro a better place.
We must wait for the gentleman to come out of seclusion and not let him down.
However, no one expected that the gentleman, who always kept his word, would deceive them this time.
These girls waited and waited, until they were old, but their husbands still didn't come back.
