Chapter 183 Another Big Brother

Seeing Tian Lin getting on the shore, Gao He asked Cai Shu, "Do you think he really knows the elders of the Wendao Sect and wants to become an outer disciple of the Wendao Sect?"

Cai Shu poured the remaining wine in the glass into the sea and said indifferently:
"He didn't cheat us of our spirit stones, so why would he lie? Besides, considering his age and cultivation level, it wouldn't be surprising if he was a disciple of an immortal sect."

Gao He did not intend to expose Tian Lin's identity, because he himself had not yet flattered Tian Lin, so how could he add more competitors to himself?
However, Tian Lin asked him to keep an eye on Zhaixingzi's movements. Even without Tian Lin telling him, he would have kept an eye on Zhaixingzi himself.

"If we can enter Shuiyun Sect, why would we need to curry favor with outsiders? Unfortunately, the situation at sea is getting worse and worse, and more and more foundation-building cultivators are appearing—

It’s not easy to fight for the position of outer disciple of Shuiyun Sect! "

When Gao He sighed, Cai Shu still didn't say anything.

It was not easy for him and his wife to support each other and get to where they are today. When they heard the Great Elder say that there was a spot for admission to the Shuiyun Sect, they had been running around for many days.

They went from being excited before to being almost desperate now, all because the reality told them that with their skills, they could not compete with others even if they joined forces.

If it was half a month ago, when they did not have to borrow spirit stones to buy magic tools, it would be fine.

The worst that could happen to them is that they give up their dream of joining the Shuiyun Sect and continue to sell talisman paper and buy Five Elements Divine Pills for their practice.

But now they have accumulated a huge debt and can no longer repay it by selling spirit stones.

It seemed that the only feasible way was to win a place as an outer disciple - otherwise, it would be difficult for him and his wife to make a comeback.

"After we get ashore, we'll go find Rong and borrow some spirit stones. Even if we can't enter Shuiyun Sect in the future, we can still make back the spirit stones we lost by selling the Soul Gathering Pearls."

While the couple was talking, Tian Lin had already landed and registered with the Great Elder to receive the Soul Gathering Pearl.

When the Great Elder received Tian Lin at the old house, he was obviously much more enthusiastic than when he received Tian Shuang.

"Young friend Tian is so young, but he has already established the Five Elements Foundation. His future is limitless."

At this point, the elder asked Tian Lin again, "I wonder if young friend Tian is married?"

Tian Lin heard what the great elder said, and it seemed that he wanted to introduce a girl from the Tong family to him.

He quickly said, "I am devoted to Taoism and have no plans to start a family yet."

The elder didn't take it seriously. He asked someone to serve tea to Tian Lin and said to him:
"My friend, what you said is wrong. Cultivation requires money, friends, and a place. It is obvious that making friends and getting married will never hinder cultivation.

As long as the friends you make are all learned people and the wife you marry is a lady from a noble family, making friends and marrying a wife will not only not affect your cultivation, but will be of great help to your path to immortality."

Tian Lin understood what he meant. He was asking him to find a rich woman.

And in the entire Pingyang City, who is richer than the Tong family?
"What the great elder said makes sense, but the matter of marriage still needs the consent of my master."

"Who is Tian Xiaoyou's master?"

Tian Lin still refused to reveal Elder Yu's identity without permission, and said vaguely:

"My master is in the Northern Wilderness. He rarely shows up. I'm afraid the Great Elder wouldn't recognize him."

The Great Elder knew that Tian Lin was trying to hide the truth, so he stopped asking questions.

After all, when Tian Lin registered the Soul Gathering Pearl, he only wrote "Tian Daoist", which was obviously not Tian Lin's real name.

Although he was dissatisfied with Tian Lin's evasion and concealment, he still wanted to arrange accommodation for Tian Lin and give him a sword and a sword slave.

This time he was rejected by Tian Lin. He came to the Tong family just to get the Soul Gathering Pearl in his original identity.

This is to avoid the situation where, after all the soul beads have been collected, a lot of trouble will arise due to the issue of disguise.

He arrived at the residence designated for him by the Tong family, which happened to be the former residence of "Tian Shuang".

It just so happened that Gao He came back from borrowing spiritual stones from Rong Gongfeng. When he saw Tian Lin, his eyes lit up and he said:

"Friend Tian, we are truly destined to be together!"

Tian Lin also laughed: "I didn't expect to become neighbors with Taoist Gao. I will have to trouble you two in the future."

Gao He's closeness to Tian Lin was sincere. He suddenly walked to the door of his house and shouted into the house: "Shu'er, look who's here."

Cai Shu walked out of the room with a frown on her face, and her eyes lit up instantly when she saw Tian Lin.

She stepped forward and eagerly took Tian Lin's hand:

"I was just talking to Lao Gao, and I don't know when I will see Fellow Daoist Tian again. God bless us, it has only been a short time, and we meet again."

Gao He said to Cai Shu, "You must have never thought that Fellow Daoist Tian is now our neighbor."

Cai Shu looked happy and said:
"This is true fate. It will be much more convenient for our two families to visit each other in the future. Lao Gao, go buy some wine and food, let's welcome Fellow Daoist Tian."

The couple was so enthusiastic that Tian Lin felt a little overwhelmed.

Gao Hezhen called Xiang'er over and asked her to use the spirit stones to buy spirit meat and spirit wine.

He and Cai Shu pulled Tian Lin into the house.

Tian Lin has been Gao He's neighbor for quite some time, but this was his first time entering Gao's house.

The Gao family's house was wider and larger than where he lived, but except for Xiang'er, most of the servants in the house were ugly women.

One of the ugly women wanted to make tea for Tian Lin, but was scolded away by Cai Shu.

She went into the inner room, took out a box of tea leaves, and brewed tea with her own bare hands.

Tian Lin didn't know what kind of tea she was brewing, but he felt that the five elements of spiritual energy in the room were much more abundant. After pouring tea from the teapot into the teacup, he saw the tea leaves rise and fall with the tea, and the tea in the teacup was revealed in five colors.

Tian Lin said: "What is the name of this tea? I have never tasted it."

In Tian Lin's eyes, the entry did not show the original name of the tea, only the hint word [Golden God Pill].

Tian Lin was very familiar with the three words "Golden God Pill".

The reason why he had not practiced the Five Elements Divine Art was that he could not find the Five Elements Divine Pill.

But now, when he was a guest at Gao's house, he saw the prompt word of [Golden God Pill] by accident.

"This is the Five Elements Mist Hidden Tea, it has a very impressive origin."

Gao He introduced to Tian Lin: "Fellow Daoist Tian, you have been to Chenxiantang, so you must know the wonders of Chenxiantang. So, do you know how Chenxiantang appeared?"

Tian Lin took a sip of the Five Elements Mist Tea and felt the golden mist swirling around his dantian.

He put down the teacup and said slowly:
"As far as I know, this Shenxian Pond was opened by a swordsman with a sword, and then Senior Zhao Tianyang from Zhongzhou poured a bowl of tea into it."

Gao He smiled and said, "Yes, that was when Zhao Tianyang flooded the Shenxian Pond with a bowl of tea. It was Zhao Tianyang who used the five elements of the tea to forcibly inject Taoism..."

At this point, Gao He suddenly paused, looked at Tian Lin and said, "The visitor from Zhongzhou, his name is Zhao Tianyang?"

There are many legends about Chenxiantang, but few people really know who caused the pond to sink.

After all, Chenxiantang has existed for ten thousand years.

"Rumors about Shenxiantang have been circulating for a long time, and the identity of the visitor from Zhongzhou has also been circulated too much. I wonder, Fellow Daoist Tian, where did you hear the name of this senior?"

Tian Lin said calmly: "This is what my master said. He said that although Senior Zhao acted a little overbearing, he was a famous and upright sect after all.

According to my master, Senior Zhao seems to have a grudge against Yulong Continent."

Hearing Tian Lin mention "family teacher", Gao He and his wife were filled with awe.

The couple looked at each other, and Gao He carefully asked Tian Lin, "Fellow Daoist Tian, can you tell me how old our master is now?"

Tian Lin frowned and thought for a while, then said, “My master’s age is probably not less than Chen Xiantang’s.”

Tian Lin had no idea how old Elder Yu was. He only knew that Elder Yu must have a very high level of cultivation and a very long life.

Because according to Elder Yu's tone, the Wendao Bell belongs to Elder Yu.

After hearing what Tian Lin said, the couple both took a deep breath. They were not sure whether Tian Lin was bragging.

But if Tian Lin was not bragging, then the Tian Lin in front of them might be the best benefactor they could ever meet in their lives.

"Master, Madam, the food is here."

Outside the house, Xiang'er had just said something when Cai Shu suddenly stood up, went out and brought in a lunch box.

She took out plates of spiritual meat and served them to Tian Lin herself.

Looking at the various prompts, Tian Lin couldn't help but ask, "I'm afraid this will cost a lot of spirit stones, right?"

Gao He felt pained, but his face was carefree: "You and I have similar personalities, a little wine is nothing."

He first picked up the wine glass and said to Tian Lin: "Fellow Daoist Tian, let me toast you first."

Tian Lin quickly said, "Brother Gao, you are the host and you are older than me, so I should be the one to show my respect to you."

Hearing Tian Lin calling him "Brother Gao", Gao He was overjoyed.

He stood up, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and said, "Since you call me brother, I will treat you as my own brother.

Good brother, I, Gao, don’t easily call anyone my brother. But somehow, this time when I met you, I felt particularly close to you.”

Cai Shu, who was standing by, assisted, "Since you two are of the same mind, why don't you become sworn brothers?"

Tian Lin was stunned. Gao He, who was standing beside him, looked at Cai Shu with dissatisfaction and said, "Aren't you embarrassing Brother Tian by saying this?"

Tian Lin smiled and said, "If Daoist Gao doesn't mind, I am willing to become sworn brothers with Daoist Gao."

The two of them sat facing the wine table, without cutting off the chicken's head or burning yellow paper. Tian Lin changed his name to "Tian Changsheng" and became sworn brothers with Gao He.

Gao He held Tian Lin's hand and said, "From now on, you are my real brother. In this world, besides your sister-in-law who is closest to me, I now have another person I can be close to."

Tian Lin also said: "In this world of mine, you are the only elder brother I have, Brother Gao."

He originally had several older brothers, but the first sworn brother, Zhang Lao Da, died. It was not his fault.

Although the second Brother Han did not become sworn brothers with him, he also respected Han Li and treated Han Li as his elder brother.

Unfortunately, Han Li also passed away, and it was not his fault.

Now here comes a tall brother——

When Tian Lin felt mixed emotions, Cai Shu took his hand and said, "Brother Changsheng, now that you have a big brother, don't forget to have a drink with me, your sister-in-law."

　. . . Everyone, be careful not to catch a cold. . . I always catch a cold at this time of year. I am so drunk. Maybe it is because of the new coronavirus?
　　Anyway, after I tested positive, I felt that my memory and immunity had declined a lot. Or maybe it had nothing to do with the coronavirus, but simply because I was getting old.
