The family was happily gathered near the bed and talking.
Just then, the sound of horses came from outside the door, followed by the clatter of carriage wheels on the ground, and a cheerful voice rang out from outside.
"Second brother, open the door."
Shen lin was overjoyed and immediately ran over to push open the courtyard gate. There stood a strong, middle-aged man with bright eyes. When he saw Shen lin, he laughed and patted his head, saying, "Xiao lin, it's only been half a year since I last saw you, and you've grown taller again."
Shen lin's parents quickly stood up. His father laughed and said, "third brother, I've been waiting for you for about the right time. Come in quickly. Xiao lin, go and get a stool for your fourth uncle."
Shen lin happily agreed, hurriedly ran back into the house, took out a stool and placed it next to the dining table. He carefully wiped it with his sleeve and looked at the middle-aged man hopefully.
The middle-aged man winked at him and teased, "xiao lin, why are you being so diligent this time? I remember you weren't like this last time I came."
Shen lin's father glared at shen lin and said with a laugh, "This little rascal, he was just exited because you came."
The middle-aged man saw that shen lin face was slightly red and smiled, "xiao Lin, your third uncle hasn't forgotten what he promised you." After saying that, he took out two candied haws from his pocket and placed them on the table.
Shen lin cheered excitedly, picked up the candied haws, ran to the side, handed one to his little sister shen yaya, and couldn't contain his joy.
Shen lin's mother looked at her son with a kind expression and said to the middle-aged man, "Third brother, your brother always talks about you. Why don't you stay a few more days this time?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "Second sister-in-law, there are many things going on in the family these days. I have to rush back first thing tomorrow morning. I'll come to see you again after I'm done with this." After saying that, he looked apologetically at his second brother.
Shen lin's father sighed and said, "Third brother, don't listen to your sister-in-law. Pack the goods tomorrow. Family matters are the most important. We can get together again later."
The middle-aged man looked at Shen lin's father and said, "Second brother, xiao lin is fifteen years old this year, isn't he?"
Shen Lin's father nodded and sighed, "After the New Year, this little rascal will be sixteen. Sigh, more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, time really flies." As he spoke, he looked at his son with doting eyes.
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then his expression turned serious. He said, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, I have something to tell you. The Fire Cloud Sect is recruiting disciples this year, and our family has Four recommendation slots. One of them has been allocated to me."
Shen lin's father was taken aback, and exclaimed in shock, "Fire cloud sect? Is that the Fire Cloud Sect, which is full of immortals?"
The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, saying, "Second brother, it's that immortal sect. Our family is considered a prominent family in the area and has the qualification to recommend someone. You know my son; he's not good at studying, but he's skilled at wielding swords. I'm thinking the immortals are unlikely to accept my son; this spot is precious. I think Xiao lin has been smart since he was little and loves studying, so maybe he can make it."
Shen lin's mother was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Third brother, this...this..."
The middle-aged man patted Shen lin's head and said, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, I think it's settled then. Let Xiao lin try. If he's really accepted, then it's his good fortune."
Shen lin looked at his parents and Third uncle with confusion. He couldn't quite understand what they were saying. Immortal? What is an immortal? Shen lin hesitated for a moment and asked softly.
His elder sister man looked at him with a serious expression and said, "Shen lin, immortals can fly around in the sky. Each of them has great supernatural powers, which are beyond the comprehension. And you can visit your elder sister more if you join the sect."
In his bewilderment, Shen lin developed a slight curiosity about immortals.
Shen lin's father stood up excitedly and pulled Shen lin's mother to bow to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man quickly helped them up and said sincerely, "Second brother, what are you doing? My mother died early. If it weren't for your mother taking care of me when I was a child, I wouldn't be where I am today. Xiao lin is my nephew. It's only right that I do this."
Shen lin's father sighed with emotion and shed tears. He patted the middle-aged man heavily, nodded, and then said sternly to shen lin, "Xiao Lin, remember this: no matter what, never forget the kindness your third uncle has shown our family, or I will disown you as my son!"
Shen lin's heart trembled. Although he was still clueless about immortals, he could tell from his parents' expressions that they took this matter very seriously. So he knelt down in front of his fourth uncle and kowtowed several times.
The middle-aged man pulled up the iron pillar and said approvingly, "Good boy, pack your things these next few days, I'll come pick you up at the end of the month!"
After the middle ages man left Shen xain'er glanced at then and couldn't help but sigh. Saying " Actually, I also returned this time to see if I can take little brother back. Since third uncle given the quota of Fire Cloud sect, then let little brother go there."
When the father and mother heard this they just nodded and and didn't say anything.
Shen Xain'er also sighed. Back then she was tested for having heavenly grade fire spiritual roots and was admitted into the heavenly pheonix sect of the heavenly fire Empire. And returned this time to look of she could take her brother back.
But thinking that if he didn't have enough talent, they might not accept him. She said that let him go to fire cloud sect.
She turned to Shen lin and said with a serious tone. "Little brother, when you are in the sect if anyone bullies you. You should immediately tell me."
After saying that she took out a pouch and handed it to shen lin saying " In this some protective talismans. Just use them if you encounter any danger and a communication jade to communicate me." After handing it she explained him how to use the talismans and jade takens patiently.
After everything is done she looked at her father mother and shen lin and hear little sister shen yaya who is only three to four years old and then said. "I'll be get going. If anything happens just call me and I'll immediately rush back." After saying that she walked out of the courtyard and took out a sword and flew away.
