Qingzhou in the Northern Territory.
The story of meeting immortals at sea spread almost throughout the six northern countries.
A group of people who went to sea died in death, and their families went to the seaside to pay their respects. As a result, more than half a year later, these people came back.
The sudden return of dead people has become topical. Not to mention that those people still said that they only went to sea for a few days and only stayed on the island for half a day.
In addition, some people are too ostentatious, fearing that others will not know the benefits. He showed off and boasted about seeing immortals, causing the legend of Penglai Immortal Island to spread rapidly.
"I heard that I met an immortal?"
"Hey hey hey, you heard about it too. Have you seen my ship? If it wasn't for the magic of immortals, which shipbuilder could build such a good ship?"
"Yes, yes. He's so majestic. I've never seen him that big. Hey, you said I go to sea a lot, so why am I not as lucky as you."
"Bah! Is this luck? This is fate! This is nothing ordinary people can encounter. Think about it, half a day on the island, half a year has passed in the world. If I hadn't been reluctant to stay in this mortal world, you would never have seen me in this life. Me."
"It's amazing. If I had it, I would definitely stay. By the way, I heard that the immortal gave each of you a leaf, and you can change it into whatever you want. Lend it to me to take a look."
"That's called Horai Qingye! Everyone else has one piece, but I have two pieces. But don't worry about it, I've already used it."
"Tch, you're still afraid that I'll snatch you away."
"It was really used. Fortunately, it was used. I'm not afraid to tell you that someone really robbed it. The Zhenwei Escort Bureau escorted a bunch of them not long ago, but the entire Escort Bureau was killed."
"Ah, is there such a thing?"
"Just watch, this kind of thing is inevitable. The emperor will be moved by the immortal's treasure."
"You are still smart, others can't grab it even if they want to."
"Ahem, I'm so smart. Others are really smart. For example, the profiteers who help carry people up the mountain have the advantage that they can't be snatched away..."
…
Qingguo, Qizhou Prefecture, Wang Family.
"Hey, did you know you were coming back? I went out to sea to buy some goods, but I was there for more than half a year. I thought I ran away with some vixen..."
Song Yuan did not receive a warm welcome, but was scolded by his burly wife as soon as he entered the door.
Not only because he has been away from home for a long time, but also because he is a son-in-law.
Song Yuan was originally a man of the rivers and lakes without any worries. By chance, he was saved by Mr. Wang. Seeing that he was upright, loyal and honest, he made him his son-in-law.
At the time, I thought it was a good idea to open the door upside down, but later I realized that I had fallen into a pit.
The Wang family is a large family in Qizhou Prefecture, and the eldest son is smart and capable, and is the designated heir to the family. The daughter is ugly and unruly, and has never been able to get married.
There is nothing against the ugly wife, he is not good-looking anyway. But the life of a son-in-law is not easy at all.
The mother-in-law was embarrassed, and the uncle rolled his eyes. The wife runs the house fiercely, and the husband-in-law is annoyed both inside and outside.
I went to sea to escape and relax, and also wanted to do something to prove myself. But he didn't expect that the fairy island has no time, and it takes half a year to go there.
"He's back."
The father-in-law and his family of three walked out of it.
Mr. Wang treated his son-in-law quite well and nodded towards him. "Just come back. You haven't eaten yet. Let the chef prepare some food and wine, and I won't accompany you. The prefect is inviting celebrities to a banquet, and your eldest brother and I will go to the banquet."
"Master, please don't delay. The magistrate doesn't invite our family every time he holds a banquet. Don't make a mistake..." The mother-in-law greeted each other with a smile on her face, without even looking at her son-in-law who had just returned.
"Brother-in-law, I heard that you handed over the payment to the accountant as soon as you got home. This is very good." My uncle took a look and said: "No matter whether it was greedy half a year ago or not, it is not a big mistake to make up for it now. I will accompany my father to the banquet. Come back and explain it in detail."
The father-in-law and uncle-in-law went out, and the mother-in-law's face immediately fell. He and his wife were on the left and right, assuming an interrogation posture.
At the same time, outside the Wang family.
"Eh? Lord Magistrate? Why are you here!"
"Brother Zhang? Brother Li, what are you..."
The Wang family had not taken a few steps outside when they met a large group of people.
Led by the prefect of Qizhou, they were all local dignitaries and celebrities.
"Hahaha, Mr. Wang! I am here to congratulate you. We have a virtuous son-in-law, who will bring glory to our family."
"Yes, yes, don't let Mr. Song hide, come out quickly and let everyone see you."
"Oh, you are wrong. There is no reason to let Mr. Song come out. We should go in and pay our respects..."
The Wang family was confused and didn't know what was going on.
Qizhou Mansion is relatively close to the inland, and Song Yuan did not tell anyone his name. When the legend of Penglai Immortal Island first spread, no one knew that he was also one of the immortals.
However, as the person who received the second most Immortal Fate from Penglai, his attention was not low at all. When other people who saw the immortal told the story of the merchant betraying the immortal, many people began to look for him.
Extend your life by a hundred years and create a family that lasts for a thousand years. Any one of them can make people crazy, but two of them together is even more conceivable.
Of course, it was the Qing Dynasty court that took the lead. Governments across the country were investigating similar missing persons.
Qizhou didn't have a clue at first, but today the prefect hosted a banquet, and some businessmen who were familiar with the Wang family came. During the conversation, we learned that the Wang family’s son-in-law had been at sea for half a year.
After pairing up all the information, it was finally determined that the lucky person was Song Yuan.
As a result, the magistrate jumped up and a large group of people came like this.
The Wang family were confused at first, but they exploded when they understood.
I heard some rumors about Penglai Immortal Fate, but I didn't expect Song Yuan to be among them. Of course, more importantly, they would never associate such a good thing with that cowardly son-in-law.
Now when I heard it, Song Yuan was not only one of the immortals who met him, but he even got a promise from the immortal to protect his descendants for thousands of years.
"The ancestors appeared, the ancestors appeared!" Mr. Wang was very excited. "The Wang family is going to be prosperous."
"Dad, not necessarily." My uncle was very calm, with sweat on his forehead: "My brother-in-law just came back, and I didn't pay much attention to him. And although my father and I are good to him, you should know what my mother and sister are like... …”
"This..." Mr. Wang sweated.
The so-called kindness to the son-in-law actually means being indifferent. Not to mention my uncle, he obviously didn't turn his back on me, but he never stopped using the knife.
"What's wrong?" The prefect was very perceptive and his eyes flashed. "I heard that Mr. Song seems to be ignored by the Wang family."
"Rumor!" Mr. Wang firmly denied it. "My beloved son-in-law is the most favored."
"I heard that's not the case. He seems to be quite angry."
"What you said is true. At the banquet, I only saw their father and son, but not Mr. Song's people."
"Sir, I remember that you have a beloved daughter who has been widowed for a long time..."
"Hush, don't speak here."
Hearing everyone's whispers, Mr. Wang became more and more anxious.
"You stay with the magistrate and uncles. I remembered something and went back."
After giving his son a hint, Mr. Wang turned around and ran towards the house.
"What do you mean, let me wait in!"
"I am the prefect!"
"Master Magistrate, uncles, there are things at home, so it is not convenient to see guests today."
Everyone broke into the door, but the uncle and brother were the ones guarding the gate.
At about the same time, in the Penglai Peak Villa. A stick of incense materialized in the air, looming in front of Su Qing.
"Huh?" Su Qing was surprised. "You just came back, are you going to start a family?"
…
The Wang family has a son-in-law who is a great talent, but his wife is ugly, and many people covet her. The prefect's daughter is a widow, so she is also interested. My son-in-law refused.
