Chapter 428 Immortal Sword 46
It was not known whether the demon plague in Nuluo Rock had been solved, but there were witnesses to what happened in the tomb of King Yu'nan. After listening to everyone's stories, Prefect Liu still sent people to check it out. They confirmed that the tomb of King Yu'nan had indeed collapsed, and with the person who was previously rescued by Han Lingsha and Liu Mengli as a witness, the case was considered closed.
But the next moment, Prefect Liu said something that made Liu Mengli and Han Lingsha uneasy: "Daughter, your father has arranged an engagement banquet for you and Master Yun. Let's finalize the marriage today!"
Liu Mengli almost jumped up, "Dad, there's no rush for my daughter's marriage!"
Han Lingsha calmed down after being surprised. After all, although she felt that she and Yun Tianhe were tied together to some extent at this moment, they were still two people after all, and there was no reason for her to ruin Yun Tianhe's good deeds.
The other party involved, Yun Tianhe, had no idea what making an engagement meant. He just saw that Liu Mengli was somewhat opposed to it, so he instinctively considered her and declined.
However, Magistrate Liu advised him, "This marriage contract was not something I came up with at the last minute. It was actually brought up by my benefactor back then. I also felt that Young Master Yun and my good daughter were a good match, so I tried my best to bring them together."
When Yun Tianhe heard that it was his father who proposed the engagement, he had no reason to object. Liu Mengli also took Yun Tianqing's wishes into consideration, and the two of them actually went through the engagement process, with Jiang Xinxin and Murong Ziying both witnesses.
After finishing the engagement arrangements, Murong Ziying planned to take Yun Tianhe and Han Lingsha to the Qionghua Sect to practice, but Han Lingsha had to go back to Hanjia Village first. She and her cousin were the only two direct descendants of the Han family who had worked in the fields, but there were still many side branches who had never been involved in the work.
Han Lingsha thought about it carefully. Most of the treasures that the Han family got from the underground could no longer be traced to future generations, and it would take a long time to sell them, so she planned to seal those things up directly. This time she would go back and open a primary school for her cousin to teach children to read and write. When the children grow up, those with talent will continue to go out to study, and those with less talent will simply be taught some skills to make a living.
Han Lingsha fully expressed her thoughts, and Liu Mengli was the first to express her support: "Miss Han's ideas are very thoughtful."
Jiang Xinxin asked, "You said that you want to teach children to read and write, and also teach them skills to make a living. Do you have so many things to teach?"
Han Lingsha said confidently: "Yes!"
"In addition to stealing valuable items such as gold, silver, and jewelry, our Han family would sometimes bring out some craftsmanship buried with the dead. Generation after generation, the Han family only studied the craftsmanship of going underground and the study of feng shui and astrology, but the other skills are still there."
Seeing that Han Lingsha didn't quite understand what she meant, Jiang Xinxin further reminded her, "Some things can't be discussed on paper. You also said that your Han family has always focused on different directions. Even if you have established many skills, someone must first learn them before they can be taught to others."
Han Lingsha finally understood what Jiang Xinxin meant, but when she thought of her cousin, she felt that it was not a big problem. "I understand what the Taoist priest means, but my cousin is just born weak, but her brain is very good. With her around, as long as there are ready-made skills left, she will definitely be able to teach others."
With this said, even Liu Mengli had nothing much to say. Shouyang City had been able to develop to its current scale and become famous in the capital by relying on the spice industry. It sounded like the Han family had quite a few skills, which would surely benefit both near and far development.
At night, Xuanying quietly came to find Han Lingsha, wanting to take her directly to the Qionghua Sect. Han Lingsha briefly told her that she wanted to go back first, and said that Murong Ziying would accompany her all the way, and Yun Tianhe would also go to Qionghua with her. Seeing that Han Lingsha did not lie, Xuanying gave up the idea of taking her away immediately.
Han Lingsha had experienced a long journey when she came out of Hanjia Village, but now it only took her more than two hours to go back. Flying with a sword was even easier than flying from Kunlun to Shouyang City.
Jiang Xinxin looked at Hanjia Village deep in the mountains. There were only three winding mountain roads for hundreds of miles. Although the houses were well-built and the chickens and dogs could be heard, it seemed quite lively and there was no sign of a small population. But when she saw the dark clouds covering the Han family's ancestral hall, she knew that the Han family had accumulated a lot of sins because of tomb robbing.
Han's cousin is a very gentle, dignified and generous person. Even if her appearance is just average, her gentle and peaceful temperament is enough to make her stand out in the crowd.
Jiang Xinxin flew on a sword with Yun Tianhe and Han Lingsha, while Murong Ziying took Liu Mengli. The two of them dropped from the sky and landed directly in the yard of Han's cousin's house. Fortunately, many people were working outside at this time and did not pay attention to the situation here, which only scared Han's cousin.
As soon as Han Lingsha landed, she didn't even have time to introduce the identity and name of the visitor to her cousin, and she pulled her cousin to talk about the solution to the Han family's short-life curse. From Han Lingsha's excited and incoherent narration, Han's cousin finally understood the root cause of the Han family's short-life curse, and the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.
Unlike Han Lingsha who only understood things after being reminded by Jiang Xinxin, Han's cousin knew the reasons for the short life span of the Han family from her parents since she was old enough to understand. So she learned to read and write, but had no knowledge of any of the ancestral skills of the Han family. She also strongly opposed Han Lingsha to learn those things in the past, but Han Lingsha was smart and a little stubborn. She had always been in poor health and had never been able to control herself. In the end, Han Lingsha still learned a lot of skills from working in the fields.
Han's cousin was only blinded by one thing before, but now with Han Lingsha's advice, she feels that all the confusions before her eyes have suddenly become clear, and she can't wait to organize the children in the village to learn to read and write.
Han Lingsha finally remembered to introduce her cousin to her friend at this time. She pulled her cousin Han to kneel in front of Jiang Xinxin and said, "This is Taoist Yuan Xin. It was Taoist Yuan Xin who showed us the way forward."
Han's cousin brought Han Lingsha to kowtow to Jiang Xinxin again. Jiang Xinxin did not refuse and accepted the gifts from the sisters.
After the two sisters stood up, Han Lingsha pulled Yun Tianhe over and introduced him, "This is Yun Tianhe, a simple man who doesn't understand the ways of the world. He's the friend I met in Kongshan, and he's the fiancé of Miss Liu Mengli."
"This is Miss Liu Mengli. She is the daughter of the prefect of Shouyang City, and she is a very good person!"
Finally, he introduced Murong Ziying to Han's cousin, "This immortal is Murong Ziying, a senior disciple of the Qionghua Sect of Kunlun Mountain. In the future, we will go to the Qionghua Sect to cultivate immortality together."
Han's cousin was so excited that she didn't know what to say. She led everyone inside to have tea, and asked Han Lingsha to talk to everyone. Then she turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch herself.
