The Bell Ringer

However, it is clear that Liao Pantu and the others have their own advantages in becoming members of the Lingxian Sect's Teaching and Research Group.

Sun Yigao and Mo Yuanjiao are extremely talented and learn at a rapid pace, while Liao Pantu and Yang Jinshu, in addition to their good talent, also possess different experiences and insights.

Therefore, there weren't many situations where the four of them would actually need to trouble Lin Xiao.

After the initial familiarization phase, they began to record potential problems and develop learning strategies while learning, preparing for subsequent lessons.

Meanwhile, Lin Xiao continued his research.

He had already connected all the spatial arrays in his private treasury in pairs, and later he further connected the already connected composite arrays in pairs.

This is equivalent to linking the four initial spatial arrays into a single unit.

This may sound simple, but in reality, the difficulty of its construction and operation is completely incomparable to the difficulty of the first parallel connection.

However, when Lin Xiao was planning this project, he had already conducted in-depth research on every aspect of it. Moreover, after the initial success, although the subsequent operations were more complicated, the underlying logic was largely the same, only requiring more time and effort each time.

After briefly attending a wedding, the sect leader of the Lingxian Sect once again immersed himself in a long period of dedicated work.

Time passed by day by day.

After getting married, Lin Lei resumed the life he had three years ago: going up the mountain to cultivate during the day and going down the mountain to rest at night.

I also need to take some time at noon to go back and have lunch with my wife.

Since the Lingxian Sect Sect's cafeteria doesn't provide lunch, his wife cooks all his meals.

Lin Lei didn't want her to be too bogged down in housework, so he made an agreement with Qin Jianghe that he would hand over a portion of Spirit Stone every month as his wife's food expenses.

Lin Lei was very clear about the difference between a sect and his own family.

Even if the sect leader is my cousin, the construction of this sect is a collective effort. My wife hasn't been in the sect for a single day, so she's not a member of the Lingxian Sect. It's only right that she pays for her own meals.

Although if he really didn't pay the Spirit Stone, everyone probably wouldn't care about that.

But he knew in his heart that all the rifts didn't form overnight. If everyone was careless about small things, their sect would easily run into trouble in the future.

Lin Lei didn't want his little cousin's sect to be ruined by such trivial matters.

As a family member, he should set a good example and not cause trouble for Brother Xiao.

Lin Lei understood this very well.

So every night, Jiang Youfu would pack two meals for Lin Lei so he could take them down the mountain to eat with his wife.

After dinner, Lin Lei would usually start telling his wife stories from the storybooks Lin Xiao had given him, while also teaching her to read.

They will also incorporate guidance from their sect's philosophies and beliefs throughout.

The couple got along very well.

After the young couple had lived at the foot of the mountain for more than half a month, Old Mrs. Lin Household and Eldest Uncle Lin's Wife would occasionally go down the mountain together to stay at their old house for a short time.

This is the first granddaughter-in-law in the Lin Household, and they really want to spend more time with her.

I've been holding it in for over half a month and I've been working really hard!

Even Lin Ying and Lin Yan would often bring their interesting little trinkets down the mountain to chat with their sister-in-law.

Lin Lei's wife's full name is Huang Manying. She is a straightforward and generous woman.

Both Lin Ying and Lin Yan liked their sister-in-law very much.

Knowing that their elder brother wanted his sister-in-law to join the sect in the future, the two of them, who were relatively free compared to their elder Lin Lei, often went down the mountain during the day. When their elder brother was not at home, the two of them were usually responsible for teaching their sister-in-law.

Because they shared the common goal of cultivation, and because the three girls were of similar temperament, they chatted and laughed together in their spare time, and the relationship between the sisters-in-law was very harmonious.

However, as laughter and chatter have recently returned to the once quiet Lin Household mansion, the number of tourists in Xiushui Village seems to have increased significantly again.

The news that the immortals from the Lin Household's old house had come down from the mountain to stay temporarily was spreading among the regulars in Xiushui Village.

However, most people tacitly refrained from publicizing the matter.

No one crowded around the Lin Household's old house to watch; in fact, due to the special efforts of most people to maintain it, the flow of people near the Lin Household's old house was not as large as before.

The tourists kept their distance, afraid of disturbing the immortal's life and experience, or angering the immortal to the point that they would never see the immortal again.

The immortals rarely descend from the mountain; they can't be bothered and driven away.

Nevertheless, this is only the wish of most people; it is never possible to completely control the information.

Therefore, after a period of time, Xiushui Village experienced a sudden surge in the number of tourists.

This caused a long-awaited flurry of activity in Xiushui Village, which had been stable for several years.

Fortunately, thanks to past experience, Xiushui Village, under the leadership of village chief Du Liushui, quickly regained its footing and managed to manage the surge in tourist numbers.

But this is not a long-term solution.

After a night of deep thought, Du Liushui went to the entrance of the Heart-Questioning Road at the foot of North Mountain the next morning and shook the Lingxian Sect's Sect Bell.

Speaking of this Sect Bell, it's not something just anyone can come and shake for no reason.

Besides directly connecting to the Lingxian Sect, this Sect Bell also has the function of discerning whether the person ringing the bell's request is evil.

Those who harbor malicious intentions cannot ring this Sect Bell.

This feature expansion benefited from the use of the Heart-Questioning Stone as one of the raw materials.

Although the Heart-Questioning Road has been completed, as long as there are channels and the price is right, the Lingxian Sect will occasionally purchase some Heart-Questioning Stone.

This was Lin Xiao's request.

Although Qin Jianghe didn't know what use the Heart-Questioning Stone was in the Mortal Realm, as far as he knew, it seemed that no sect in the Mortal Realm used the Heart-Questioning Road.

Moreover, given the financial resources of those sects in the Mortal Realm and the importance they place on their disciples' character, it's unlikely they would spend Spirit Stone to buy this thing and specially make a "Path of Heart-Questioning Road" just to test their disciples.

After all, many sects value Spirit Root more.

Therefore, this "Heart-Questioning Stone" has little market value in the Mortal Realm.

However, since the Heart-Questioning Stone do not appear very frequently near Yuanling City and their prices are not too outrageous, the Finance Hall did not reject its sect leader's request.

The location for receiving the Lingxian Sect Bell is the General Affairs Hall within the sect.

Because there are now many disciples, the General Affairs Hall is always staffed with people to make it convenient for everyone to accept tasks or exchange items at any time.

Therefore, as soon as the Sect Bell, Liu Yunan immediately received the report.
