Chapter 87: The Zhou Family’s Old House

After a while, Zhou Qinghao climbed out of the well water.

She also held a puppet in her hand.

Yun Ling laughed, she was still a little girl after all. She remembered that when she was young, she hid a stuffed doll in the hole of a big willow tree at the entrance of Gujing Village.

That doll was the only toy Yunmu made for her, and it stayed with her throughout her childhood. It was also the only thing that Yunlian didn't snatch away because she hid it.

Now that I think about it, the past is gone like smoke in the wind.

Zhou Qing's ability to hide things was unique, but she couldn't imagine how to throw them into a well.

"Let's go." She noticed someone approaching.

"Master, this..."

Before Zhou Qing finished saying her kind words, she heard someone talking outside and walking in.

Is there anyone coming to this remote little courtyard?

Yun Ling pulled Zhou Qinghao up and jumped lightly, and in the blink of an eye she was on the roof.

Two young men dressed as servants came, one tall and one short, presumably servants of the Zhang family.

"Brother Yong, what do you think the second young master thinks? Why do you always send people to search for something in the Zhou family's house this week without saying what it is? How can we find it?" The short man held up a flower pot and looked at it.

said.

"Hey, what kind of fairy treasure it is said to be is not something that mortals like us can know. We will do whatever the higher-ups say." The tall man sighed, also with a frown on his face.

I've looked through this small courtyard three times, and I really haven't seen anything special.

"This year has passed, and the eldest young master has lost his life for this. The island owner's wife ordered the second young master to continue searching. Do you think we can still find it? Could it be that the young lady of the Zhou family ran away with her things?

"The short man speculated.

"What you said makes sense. You don't know. I heard Uncle Fu say that when he arrested the young lady of the Zhou family, he arrested the wrong person. He arrested a rather beautiful woman. After that, the woman took the young lady of the Zhou family with her.

The ladies are gone, and many people suspect that they both ran away together!"

"Let's move faster and search again. After we're done, we'll go talk to the second young master. I heard that the second young master bought a lot of good wine today. We're going early. If we say more good things, we might even reward him with a mouthful or two."

!”

The two people were chattering about some things about the Zhang family.

The Zhang family dove occupied the magpie's nest and plundered the Zhou family's house, which made Zhou Qinghao very angry.

She pursed her lips, a look of frost on her face, her eyes seemed to burst out of fire, and the puppet in her hand creaked.

She is now a monk at the third level of Qi Refining, and the power in her hands is unparalleled.

Yun Ling decided to save the poor puppet. She asked Zhou Qinghao: "Do you want to ask for a drink?"

...

The second young master of the Zhang family, Zhang Zhen's younger brother, Zhang Bai, was half lying on the grand master's chair in the front hall, drinking wine and urging the servants coming and going.

"Look hard for me, even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find something. If you can't find it again, my aunt will definitely be angry with me! If I get scolded, you won't get any good results!"

He was a little drunk, and his face was already red. His eyes were blurry, but he saw a young lady approaching.

Although this little lady was in plain clothes and makeup, she smelled like hibiscus from clear water, naturally stripped of all the ornaments. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide, walked up with a wine bottle and asked: "Where did this little beauty come from?"

Zhou Qinghao snorted coldly, broke his wine bottle with a snap of her fingers and said angrily: "Open your dog eyes and see clearly who I am!"

Zhang Bai stared at her for a while and then said in shock: "Zhou Qinghao! You are Zhou Qinghao!"

Her skin color, appearance and appearance have changed, but the contours of her eyebrows and eyes remain the same.

Before he could show the joy of finding someone, he was beaten severely.

"Get out of here right now. This is the Zhou family's house, not your Zhang family. Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death too and let you keep company with your brother!" Zhou Qinghao waved the Yunluo umbrella that Yun Ling gave her.

, the spiritual energy attached to the umbrella handle kept hitting Zhang Bai's body, leaving many red and purple marks.

"Come on, come on!" Zhang Bai shouted in pain.

Not long after, many slaves gathered around and tried to save people, but Zhou Qinghao waved his hand and turned his spiritual power into a shield, which was easily deflected by the earthquake.

"Immortal magic, this is immortal magic, you have become an immortal cultivator!" Zhang Bai was horrified.

"Take your people and leave my Zhou family, and you can't step foot further in the future, or I, I will kill you!" Zhou Qinghao threatened him.

"Okay, I'm leaving now, I'm leaving right now!" Zhang Bai crawled on his feet and ran out the door.

"Wait!" Zhou Qinghao suddenly pulled him back.

Zhang Bai turned around with a sad face: "What else do you have to say?" His voice was full of panic.

"You touched my grandfather's tablet!" Zhou Qinghao said angrily.

She pulled a piece of jade from Zhang Bai's waist and knocked him unconscious with the umbrella in her hand.

Zhou Qinghao snorted to the Zhang family servant beside him: "Drag him out yet!"

Only then did the servants of the Zhang family suddenly wake up and carried Zhang Bai out with all their hands and feet. He quickly walked out of the Zhou family's gate and scattered like birds and beasts.

Zhou Qinghao held the jade piece in her hand and suddenly burst into tears.

"What's wrong with you?" Yun Ling, who had been watching the situation quietly, showed his body and asked.

She just wanted her to beat the person up and express her feelings, but why did she start crying?

Zhou Qing wiped away her tears and said with a sigh of relief: "Master, this jade piece belonged to my grandfather. He passed away, so I hid it in his memorial tablet. I didn't expect that the evil thief from Zhang's family would find it!"

"

"Then we'll put it back."

Yun Ling followed Zhou Qinghao to the westernmost side of the Zhou family's house, where the memorial tablets were displayed.

Different from the custom of people in Gujing Village being buried at sea after death, the Zhou family, like the mortals on Meilin Island, will be buried at sea after death.

The body of the deceased was placed on a wooden or bamboo raft, and his relatives pushed it out to the shore with their own hands, letting it drift along the sea water.

It means being born in the sea, and eventually the soul returns to the sea, the fallen leaves return to their roots, and life and death go back and forth.

Ordinary islanders don't even have tablets. Only some slightly larger families will carve the tablets of the deceased for worship during the Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, and Hanyi Festival, for comfort.

Unsurprisingly, the tablets belonging to several generations of the Zhou family were knocked over to the ground, and some of them were even broken into pieces and scattered on the ground due to the loose wood over time.

Zhou Qinghao packed up these tablets one by one, and then talked about her upcoming trip.

Yun Ling thought she would put the jade piece back, but she handed the jade piece to Yun Ling's hand, "Master, I lied to you. Our Zhou family does have things from the Xian family, but I don't know if they are treasures."

.”

She has now read the record of cultivating immortals in Longyou Realm given by Yun Ling, and knows a lot of common sense that she needs to know about cultivating immortals. She no longer knows about that ignorant girl.

Zhou Qinghao took out the puppet that was fished out from the bottom of the well from the storage bag. She pressed the puppet's chest lightly and heard a "click" sound, and the wooden block on the puppet's chest bounced away.

There is something hidden in a place half the size of a palm!
