Chapter 244: Second Uncle Disappeared

Lin Zhangqing heard that it was Fourteenth Uncle who was ambushed, and the news of his death, and felt a burst of sadness in his heart. It was Fourteenth Uncle who tested his spirit root at the time.

And they also experienced this beast tide together. Under such dangerous circumstances, they all survived. He didn't expect that he would die under someone else's ambush this time!

And their family had worked hard for decades, living frugally to let him successfully establish his foundation, and now he died like this!

How could Fifth Grandfather's family accept this! I don't know how Twelfth Sister Lin Changlian is doing now, and if she can hold on.

"Did Fourteenth Uncle say who did it? Any instructions?" Lin Zhangqing asked, frowning.

Father shook his head and said: "According to him, the time of the fight wasn't long, and both of those people had disguised themselves, so he couldn't judge who did it himself."

"He hurriedly left a little clue, explained his funeral arrangements, and then died."

"Now it can only be inferred that the people who acted should be Foundation Establishment cultivators from the other twelve families."

"Excluding the three families that have alliances and intermarriages with us, the remaining nine families are all highly suspicious!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded, just about to ask what plans the Clan Leader had? Unexpectedly, Father continued: "These things are not for you to worry about now. Go home quickly! Your mother and aunt have been looking forward to you coming back. We still have to be on duty here, so we won't accompany you back."

Lin Zhangqing had no choice but to say goodbye to Ben Shu and Father first, and then flew directly toward home.

On the way, he saw the spirit fields on Aoyun Peak, but Lin Zhangqing didn't go over. At this time, he still had to go home first. Mother should be at home now.

If she knew he was back and didn't go to see her the first time, she would definitely discipline Lin Zhangqing.

Arriving at the Main Peak, he met many clansmen along the way. He kept calling uncles and aunts all the way. Many people knew he was back this time.

Finally, he arrived at his own door. It was quiet inside. His sister definitely wasn't at home. Entering the courtyard, he happened to see Mother walking out.

Lin Zhangqing shouted happily: "Mother! I'm back!" Then he rushed over and hugged her.

Mother was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, reached out to pinch his arm and shoulder, and touched Lin Zhangqing's face, saying happily: "Great, my Little Qing is finally back safe and sound! Did you come back alone? The road must have been very hard. Mother will make your favorite Eight Treasures Chicken Soup for you later to make up for it."

Lin Zhangqing heard this and nodded happily: "Great, Mother, make more. I often wanted to eat the Eight Treasures Chicken Soup you made when I was outside. This time I want to eat enough!"

"By the way, where are Aunt and Sister? Where did they go?"

"Your aunt is naturally in the Baicao Garden at this time. Your sister should be at your Fourteenth Uncle's house, accompanying Changlian!"

Lin Zhangqing asked with some surprise: "They are four or five years apart! When did they become so close?"

Mother laughed: "Changlian, Changjie, Changhao, and the others often go to Aoyun Peak to play. Since your sister could fly on her sword, she also often goes to Aoyun Peak to play, so they became familiar with each other."

Lin Zhangqing only then realized, and continued to ask: "Then where are Grandfather and Second Uncle?"

"Your grandfather has been at the Clan Leader's place quite often recently. He should be preparing for something. Since your Fourteenth Uncle died, the whole family has been tight inside and loose outside. Actually, you really shouldn't have come back at this time!"

"As for your second uncle, he didn't come back at all. This time only your grandfather and your father came back."

"I asked your father, and he wouldn't say, just telling me not to ask anymore in the future!" Mother said helplessly.

Lin Zhangqing understood a bit. No wonder Father kept letting him come back just now. He definitely didn't want Lin Zhangqing to ask so much, so he let him go home quickly.

This would have to wait until he asked Father or Grandfather privately!

Lin Zhangqing said sternly: "Mother, as a member of the Lin family, now that the family has something, I definitely can't stand by and watch. At least I have to do some things within my power."

"And most importantly, you are still here, so I definitely have to come back! At least I have to come back to protect you!"

Mother heard these words and was also very gratified in her heart, reached out and tapped his head lightly, and said with a smile: "Silly son!"

Lin Zhangqing laughed and dealt with it.

Now the situation was much better than Lin Zhangqing had imagined. Originally, he was prepared to be robbed when approaching the periphery of Nine Peaks Mountain. Unexpectedly, everything was calm. This instead made many of his preparations useless.

However, this was also good. Now that he had successfully returned to the family, his heart was more stable. Anyway, he believed that with his strength, the Lin family would definitely have the last laugh.

Now that he had seen his mother, and Grandfather was at the Clan Leader's place, he had to go see his aunt at the Baicao Garden first.

He said something to Mother, and then ran out, but as soon as he reached the door, he turned back.

"Mother, I forgot to give you the gift. This is a gift I specifically prepared for you. You will definitely like it when you see it!" After speaking, he laughed "Hehe!" twice, looking extremely proud.

Then he took out the gift he had specifically sorted out two days ago, a jade box and a storage bag, and handed them to Mother Xu Wenying. 【244-

"Oh my! My Little Qing went out for a trip and actually knew to prepare a gift for me. I must see what good things they are!"

Seeing the gift her son had specially prepared for her, Xu Wenying was actually already overjoyed. She didn't care whether the gift was expensive or not; what she cared about was her son's thoughtfulness.

Opening the jade box to look, inside was a jade slip, a book, and a top-grade talisman brush. Seeing this, she was already greatly astonished; it was actually a top-grade talisman brush, while the one she was currently using was only a superior-grade one.

Afterwards, she picked up the book to look at it, and it was actually "Xu Jing'an's Talisman Sutra Essays." This time she was truly startled. Without caring about anything else, she immediately picked up the jade slip to check, and it was indeed the thing she wanted, the "Jing'an Talisman Sutra."

She hurriedly pulled Lin Zhangqing and asked, "Qing'er, what is going on? Where did these two things come from? Why would they appear here?"

Seeing his mother's reaction, Lin Zhangqing was a bit confused, but he still answered, "That book 'Xu Jing'an's Talisman Sutra Essays' was found at the stall square in Dongyang Market, and it only cost one hundred spirit stones.

I heard that over there, basically as long as one is a talisman master, one definitely has a copy, which is why I was able to buy it for only one hundred spirit stones.

The remaining jade slip and talisman brush were both discovered by me inside the storage bag of a robber cultivator.

Because they looked like they matched the name of that book quite well, I just put them together.

They are all things related to talisman making, so I gave them all to you as a gift! Is there any problem with these things?"

After hearing what her son said, Xu Wenying blinked her eyes, truly feeling a bit incredulous.

However, she still opened her mouth to explain, "These two things are the highest inheritance of the Xu family's talisman Dao.

Xu Jing'an was the person who founded the Xu family several hundred years ago, and he is also my Great-Grandfather Xu.

You also have half of the Xu family's bloodline in you, so you can also be considered his descendant."

Lin Zhangqing listened, dumbfounded. He didn't expect that these two things would actually have this connection to their family; this was too coincidental!

However, he immediately reacted and said to his mother, "Even so, that proves that these two things are truly very fated with you.

There is heavenly will in the dark; otherwise, they wouldn't have taken such a big detour and finally borrowed my hand to deliver them to you.

It shows that even Heaven feels that this inheritance is destined to shine brilliantly in your hands, which is why it tried every possible way to deliver them to you!"

Xu Wenying couldn't help but laugh. She was amused by her son's nonsense, actually dragging in heavenly will, but thinking about it, it did make a little bit of sense.

So she said to Lin Zhangqing, "Let me take a look first! Don't hand these things over to the family Scripture Pavilion for now; I will keep them for now!"

Lin Zhangqing nodded and said, "They were originally gifts for you, so you can arrange them however you like! I won't have any objections.

Inside that storage bag are special materials for talisman making, as well as hundreds of stacks of talisman paper. You can see for yourself if they are useful! I am going to the Baicao Garden to find my aunt!"

His mother was still thinking about the matter of those two things. After hearing Lin Zhangqing's words, she then said, "Go! Go! Come back yourself when the time is about right, so I don't have to go looking for you."

"Understood! I'll be back in a while! I have more surprises for you all later!" After finishing, he laughed "Hehe!", appearing extremely proud.
