The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 1 Birth
  Qin State Yongzhou, Jincheng Prefecture, Taoshui County, Nanfeng Mountain.

In a courtyard with green tiles and red eaves, a man in his late forties was walking around outside a house with carved beams and painted beams. He was very nervous and muttered something.

"Aijun, you must be safe and sound!"

"We agreed at the time that we wanted to grow old together, but you can't just keep your word!"

Hearing his son's words repeated back and forth, a white-faced, beardless, self-deprecating old man standing next to him couldn't stand it any longer and said sternly:

"Zhengyang, what nonsense are you talking about? Your wife is a practitioner with spiritual roots, and she is not an ordinary person. How could something happen if she gives birth to a child? You just stay here quietly and wander back and forth. It makes me dizzy! You are almost a father, why do you still have such a fussy personality?"

When Xu Zhengyang heard what his father said, although he felt it was reasonable, he still couldn't help but worry. He stood at the door of the room for a while. When there was no movement, he lay down in front of the door of the delivery room and looked through the crack in the door. He didn't know what he could see.
  When the old man saw this scene, he felt that his son was too unbecoming and became very angry. Just when he was about to scold him, a man and a woman behind him quickly spoke out to dissuade him:

"Father, the third brother is also worried about his sister-in-law. Don't be angry. This is also his first time as a father. Worry is only natural!"

"Yes, father, the eldest sister is right. When my wife gave birth to Peng'er, I was extremely worried!"

The old man heard the words of dissuasion from his children and wanted to say something, but he still kept silent. He stood there quietly and closed his eyes at the same time. Out of sight, out of mind!

About half an hour later, the sound of a baby crying "wow" came from the room.

"I've given birth. My beloved has finally given birth. I'm going to be a father!" The man was ecstatic.

Not long after, the door opened, and a woman in her early sixties in a green skirt came out, her face beaming with joy.

"Fifth sister-in-law, how are you? Is my wife okay?"

Xu Zhengyang asked nervously, Xu Zhengyong and Xu Zhengyan also looked at the woman.

The woman said to the middle-aged man and the old man:
  "Congratulations to the eleventh brother, it's a boy. Mother and son are safe. Congratulations to the fourth uncle, too, for having a great grandson!"

The woman in the green skirt shook her head again, and said with a smile, "The children I have delivered are eighty if not a hundred. What can happen? Don't worry! The mother and child are safe, and I am happy to have a son. Congratulations."

Everyone was very happy. Then Xu Zhengyang was worried about the woman and immediately entered the delivery room.

When he entered, he saw Li Aijun lying on the bed, her face pale and sweating profusely. A baby was lying next to her with her eyes closed. The newborn baby was wrinkled, but in Xu Zhengyang's eyes, it was very cute. Just because this is his descendant, his child!

"Madam, thank you for your hard work!"

"Husband, why bother? This is what I should do!"

"By the way, husband, the child hasn't been named yet. While the father, eldest sister and second brother are here, you can discuss it together!"

"That makes sense. Madam, you have just given birth, so take a good rest first. I will go find father and others to discuss it, and I will come back to accompany you later!"

Waiting for his wife to fall asleep, Xu Zhengyang covered his wife with a quilt, then slowly turned around and left. When I walked outside the house, I saw the three fathers there, so I walked over and told them about naming the child, and prepared to brainstorm ways to name the child together.

"Zhengyong's child is named Xu Peng. Let's call this child Xu Yu. After testing the spiritual roots, we will decide whether to increase the name. What do you think?"

"The name my father gave me has a very good meaning, I agree."

"It's absolutely extraordinary, indeed extraordinary!"

The old man looked at the middle-aged man and asked,
  "Yang'er, what do you think?"

The middle-aged man, Xu Zhengyang, pondered for a while and said: "Yu Zhe is big and has a beautiful meaning. It has a grand meaning in it. This name cannot be better! I agree, father!"

The old man, Xu Zhengyang’s father, Xu Shengsheng, was very pleased to hear that his son agreed! After all, he got the names of his two sons, one daughter, and the boss's children, and he didn't want to break the tradition here.

"Okay, let's do this for now. We still have things to do in the family. I won't be attending the child's full-moon party. I'm going on a long trip in the near future. Take this talisman and put it on your child when he's one-month old! In addition, you stay in the family You must practice seriously and strive to reach the late stage of Qi training as soon as possible, do you understand?"

"Yes, Father!"

The three siblings should claim to be.

"Ok!"

The old man flicked his wide sleeves, turned around and walked out of the door.

"When do you think we can reach my father's level of cultivation and become foundation-building monks?" Xu Zhengyong asked. It sounded like he was asking others, but it was also a question to himself.

"Hey, it's so difficult to build the foundation. Less than one in a hundred people can reach the realm of foundation building through practicing qi. Besides, I have four spiritual roots. It's hard to say whether I can practice to the perfection of qi training, let alone building the foundation? I don't dare I've thought about it! But the eldest sister is very hopeful!" Xu Zhengyang sighed, as if accepting his fate, and at the same time changed the topic to the eldest sister with the best spiritual qualifications.

"I have just entered the late stage of Qi training, and I am still far away from the perfection of Qi training. Besides, even if I reach the perfection of Qi training, where does the Foundation Establishment Pill come from? If I can't break through the Foundation Establishment, how will my lifespan be different from that of ordinary people? Everything is just water. It’s just a flower in the moon mirror!” Xu Zhengyan sighed.

At this point, the three brothers and sisters were silent. This is the sad thing about a small foundation-building clan. It is precarious and the inheritance may be cut off at any time because there is no reliable source of foundation-building pills.

There was no words for a while, and then the second brother Xu Zhengyong and the eldest sister Xu Zhengyan said goodbye and left, leaving only Xu Zhengyang's family of three, still immersed in joy.

When Xu Shengsheng walked out of the door, the joy on his face that he had just gained another grandson was no longer there. He stood in front of the family's forbidden area with a gloomy face, as if waiting for someone.

Not long after, seven people, headed by the great elder Xu Shengwei, dressed in powerful attire and full of murderous intent, arrived. When he saw that Elder Ji Zhu had arrived first, he hurried over to salute.

"I've met Fifth Brother!"

"I've met Uncle Wu!"

People of the same generation call him Fifth Brother and salute with clasped fists. People of the younger generation call him Fifth Uncle and bow to salute.

Xu Shengsheng nodded in response, and then said:

"The Wei family has gone too far to bully others. Last year, they intercepted and killed my Xu family's transport team, causing heavy losses to our people. What do you think we should do?"

"Revenge!" Everyone gritted their teeth and said in unison.

"Well said, we want revenge! Now the opportunity has come. According to reliable information, a group of people from the Wei family went into the mountains for hunting today. Although their information was tightly sealed, they were still discovered by our family's insiders and passed back to the family. Now what do you think we should do?"

"Pay with blood, find them, kill them all, and avenge the dead tribesmen!" Everyone was filled with anger and answered without hesitation.

"Okay, without further ado, put on the mask that isolates your spiritual consciousness and follow me!"

This can prevent them from being recognized if something slips through the net. Although the two families have a deep hatred, they have not completely broken up in the end.

As everyone disappeared, it was as if nothing had happened just now. Only the cold north wind is still blowing!
