Chapter 69 Old Events at the Shrine
"Jialan is back." Seeing Roland Hill returning to the shrine, Granny Geluo greeted her.
At this moment, she is sitting in the center of the shrine, quietly perceiving the dragon veins in this big underground. The afterglow of the setting sun poured in from the main entrance of the shrine, dyeing the black witch costume on her lower body a little warmer.
"I'm back." The girl walked at a slightly brisk pace, first went to the back yard, changed into clean and tidy shoes, and then walked out.
At this time, Lorraine Hill took off his usual black smock, and was dressed in snow white with satin-like hair draped over his shoulders. With his beautiful and dreamy face, he had a special style.
"Is mother-in-law free now?" Stepping on the wooden board of the shrine, there were bursts of empty voices.
"Yes, what's the matter?" Granny Geluo opened her eyes, and her afternoon work was almost finished.
"I want to know something about the past." Roland Hill came over, knelt down with Granny Gloria, and looked at the courtyard outside in the setting sun.
"Oh, did you find something interesting?" Granny Geluo's voice was kind of kind.
"Well." Roland Hill then talked about the girl during the day.
After listening carefully, Granny Geluo spoke.
"It turned out to be Qingling's daughter. I didn't expect it to be so big in a blink of an eye." She seemed to be emotional.
"This child is basically correct, but there are some parts that are not the same."
"Actually, I know Qing Ling's love affair with that boy at the time." Granny Ge Luo slowly started talking about the past.
"That boy was also eighteen or nineteen years old at the time. He grew up on the border of the dynasty when he was young. Later, as he grew up, some characteristics of the scorpion family were revealed. It's black, but it's actually a deep blue that has settled down."
"Because of his different appearance, he felt uncomfortable living outside, so he moved from the town on the border to this valley in the evening mountains."
"Compared to those children from ordinary families, he has read books in the outside world and knows a lot of things, which quickly attracted Qingling's attention and admiration. Qingling's appearance is not bad, and the rest of the matter will be logical." Granny Gloria narrated.
"The girl who studied with me at that time was actually not only Qingling, but also two others, so I didn't block or care about Qingling's love at that time, and let it develop freely."
"It's just that things changed a little bit later."
"After Qing Ling got married, another girl had her mind and went to the outside world, and the only remaining girl died in an accident."
"Since then, I'm the only one supporting this shrine."
"I originally wanted to train a few more children to be successors, but unfortunately, the world has changed a few years ago. Even I myself had to re-explore, and now I can return to the fifth level. Not to mention teaching others So it's been put on hold."
Although Granny Gloria spoke plainly, Roland Hill admired her calm and indifferent attitude.
Before the change of the world, Granny Geluo was a powerful witch of the Dragon Sequence 8, but now she has slipped to the fifth rank, and the gap is huge. It is conceivable that ordinary people simply cannot accept it.
At this time, Roland Hill suddenly became curious about the follow-up of the change in the world.
"Why did those immortals who were once ranked ninth-rank fail to return to the peak of their strength in the new era, and even their progress was not as good as some young people."
"Hehe, this." Granny Gloria explained with a smile.
"Because everyone's habits can't be changed."
"A lot of knowledge and ways of thinking have been deeply ingrained in your mind, such as the handwriting when you write, the way you speak, and even your personality."
"These things that were advantageous in the past actually hinder you from learning new things. Because in the old cognition, the current cultivation method will definitely lead to confusion, it is wrong, and it will be irreversible."
"And even if you gradually recognize such a change later, the reality has changed, but this habitual thinking and reaction is difficult to correct. It needs to be corrected all the time, and it will go wrong if you don't check it for a while."
"So, our generation is slowly not keeping up with the times." Granny Geluo replied slowly.
"And the most advantageous are those young people, especially those who reached the fifth or sixth order when they were young."
"They already have a good understanding of the practice of supernatural power, and the things they have learned in the past have not been long, and they have not formed a mindset, and it is easy to change their minds."
"Although I haven't been to the outside world for a long time, I can still roughly infer from some information that most of the seventh-order geniuses who come to the door today are from this kind of background. Once they reached the fifth or sixth order at a very young age, they practiced again. It's quick to catch up."
"And young people are flexible, unconstrained, and bolder in innovation. That's why they quickly emerge." Granny Gloria patiently explained the current world situation to Roland Hill.
In this way, the two talked softly in the quiet shrine, until the sunset in the distance completely fell, and the two birds on the ridge of the eaves of the shrine chirped.

The next day, in the morning.
Roland Hill came to the top of the valley again, but not only the little girl from yesterday, but also a woman in her thirties was waiting for her here today.
The woman wrapped her head with a black turban, but from her face, it could still be seen that she was somewhat similar to the little girl, and the two should be in a mother-daughter relationship.
"I'm sorry, Caiwei disturbed Lord Jialan yesterday." The woman first took the little girl's hand and bowed to the girl.
"Please don't pay attention to what Caiwei said, many of which are random guesses by her." The woman was a little uneasy, and then she took her daughter next to her to salute Roland Hill.
"It doesn't matter." The girl shook her head. Was the girl called Caiwei yesterday? Then she focused her eyes on the woman.
Although she was wearing black sackcloth, her handsome face still retained a bit of beauty, and she was estimated to be one of the most beautiful women in the town and village when she was young.
"It's you, do you want to go to the shrine to meet Granny Geluo?"
"I..." She hesitated for a while, and finally nodded slowly.
"That's good, come with me." After speaking, Roland Hill waved his sleeves, the black coat slipped a little, revealing the white cuffs and more tender wrists, and the silky breeze enveloped the three , forming a sphere and falling into the valley below.
When she came to the steps in front of the shrine again, the woman's eyes seemed to be full of nostalgia and sadness, and she slowly stepped forward with Roland Hill.
There was wet rain and dew on the bluestone steps, and there were moss and small flowers in the corners.
At that time, she was still a trainee witch in the shrine. Together with her two peers, she was taught by Granny Gloria and lived a carefree life.
Don't want to, fifteen years of time is like a snap of a finger, and everything has changed.
Chi Ling left without saying goodbye, and Xue Ling fell into the dark abyss. Of the three, she was the only one who still lived in this secluded valley, and she hadn't met directly with the mother-in-law who taught her for more than ten years.
