  Taking the token given by his ancestor, Xu Zhiyu opened the family treasure house and walked in.

At the same time, in the family meeting hall, the family treasury token of the ancestor Xu Deming also shook. He sent a message to Xu Shengsheng who was sitting at the bottom:
  "Sheng Sheng, Yu'er has been released from seclusion and is now in the family treasure house. Go and notify him and ask him to come see me after he's done!"

"Yes, Ancestor!" Xu Shengsheng said in the same voice.

He stood up, clasped his fists and saluted the old man sitting opposite his ancestor, saying in apology:

"Ancestor, Senior Bian, and juniors still have clan affairs to deal with, so please leave first!"

Xu Deming nodded, and Senior Bian said:
  "Since the head of the Xu family has something to do, he should go and get busy first. Just keep Daoist Fellow Xu here to accompany you!"

"Junior, please take your leave!" After Xu Shengsheng saluted, he slowly exited the family meeting hall and also headed towards the family treasure house.

Looking at Xu Shengsheng leaving, the old man surnamed Bian said to Xu Deming with a smile:
  "Fellow Daoist Xu, I see that your junior has reached the ninth level of foundation construction. Do you think you will break through to the Zifu stage in a few years? What a congratulations!"

Xu Deming responded with a wry smile:
  "Fellow Taoist is ridiculous. It is so difficult to break through the Zi Mansion by building a foundation. Our family does not have the storage of spiritual objects such as Zi Yang Pill or Purple Qi Talisman. There is no possibility of a breakthrough in a short time!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what you said is not necessarily true!" Bian Zifu said enigmatically.

"Oh? Fellow Taoist, do you have any inside information? Could it be that one of your branches in Guilou is planning to hold a large-scale auction, and will Ziyang Dan be auctioned? If it is true, I hope fellow Taoist will tell you, and the Xu family will be richly rewarded!"

Xu Deming also accompanies him in acting. The Xu family has the best Purple Qi Talisman, which is enough. However, in order not to arouse suspicion, if there is a Ziyang Pill, it is best to buy one. This can also be used to conceal others. effect.

Bian Zifu shook his head and said:
  "Fellow Taoist, you are joking. How important are the auction details? How can I, a mere worshiper, know about it? There may not be another reason for what I said!"

"Then I need to ask fellow Taoists for advice!"

"It's easy to talk about! I believe fellow Taoists also know that this time the place in the Huangluan Secret Realm of our Taiyang Building Branch in Taoyuanfang City was given to the noble boy Xu Zhiyu. He was first sent to Dahefang City by my colleague Lao Wan!"

Hearing this, Xu Deming nodded. He knew all this. When Xu Zhiyu left that day, he went to see him off.

Just listen to Bian Zifu continue to say:

"After arriving in Dahefang City, he was personally escorted to Yuanzhenfang City by Shopkeeper Lin of the Dahefang City Branch. Shopkeeper Lin has been praising little friend Xu Zhiyu since he came back. I was still there at that time. I work in the ministry and have heard it several times!”

"What's even more unexpected is that soon after Shopkeeper Lin came back, he received an order from the headquarters to transfer him to a branch near the Yue Kingdom Headquarters as shopkeeper. It can be said that he rose to the top in one step!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xu Deming and found that the latter looked confused, so he explained:
  "Young Daoist Xu may have always stayed in the family and has never been to our country, Yue. The branch here is not comparable to the branch near the main building. The auction of foundation building pills may be a rare thing here, but it is rare there. Normally, even Ziyang Pills are occasionally auctioned!"

"What I mean is that since the Xu family has this connection, why not let Xu Xiaoyou contact Shopkeeper Lin and ask him to auction a Ziyang Pill on his behalf, and then bring it back through the channels in the building. In that way, isn't it guaranteed that the aristocratic patriarch will break through? ?”

So that’s what it meant, Xu Deming thought, but he still shook his head and said:
  "Fellow Taoist, maybe it was Taoist Lin who saw that my junior's qualifications were pretty good, so he just complimented me casually, but he may not be serious about it!"

"Haha, to be honest, Fellow Daoist Xu, I originally thought so too, but do you know what Shopkeeper Lin did before leaving? He actually visited all of our worship services and the higher-ups in the building before leaving. , and also specifically told us that if your Xu family encounters any difficulties, we must lend a helping hand, and he will be rewarded heavily!"

"Fellow Daoist Xu, tell yourself, if it weren't for our mutual friendship, why would Shopkeeper Lin do this?"

"This?" Xu Deming was stunned. He didn't expect it to be like this, because Xu Zhiyu had always been tight-lipped about his trip to the secret realm, as if he was keeping secrets. He didn't know what happened!
  "Did Xu Xiaoyou never mention this matter to fellow Taoist monks?" Now it was Bian Zifu's turn to be surprised.

"To be honest, fellow Taoist, after my great-grandson returned to the family, he said that he had gained a little from cultivation, so he hurriedly went into seclusion. He has not come out of seclusion until now, so I don't know anything about it. I will wait for him to come out of seclusion. After that, I will make some inquiries. If his relationship with Shopkeeper Lin is really as close as Fellow Taoist said, I will consider what Fellow Taoist said and ask him to find a way to contact Shopkeeper Lin and ask him to take a photo. A Ziyang Pill or a Purple Qi Talisman of sufficient age!" "It turns out that Xu Xiaoyou has been in seclusion, no wonder, otherwise he would not have told his friends about such an important matter!" Bian Zifu said in sudden realization.

If what Bian Daoyou said is true, then it seems that we will have a closer relationship with Shopkeeper Lin in the future. In this way, even if a steady stream of Zifu monks appear in the Xu family in the future, others will only think that we are hooking up with Shopkeeper Lin. Only through this line can you obtain the Purple Yang Pill or the Purple Qi Talisman from special channels.

This also prevents Yu'er's supernatural powers from being discovered. It is a matter of achieving multiple things with one stone, Xu Deming thought, and at the same time, he changed his mind and said:

"Speaking of which, I have to trouble my fellow Taoists to upgrade the family's spiritual veins this time!"

"What are you talking about, fellow Taoist! If I hadn't discovered the hidden demon cultivator in our building with the help of fellow Taoist's magic mirror and captured it, I don't know how much damage it would have caused to the building. So before I set off, Shopkeeper Xi has repeatedly told me that I must handle the matters assigned by fellow Taoist carefully and carefully, so if you have any requests, fellow Taoist, please feel free to ask me!" Bian Zifu said with a smile.

"Exterminating demons and defending the Way is our bounden duty, so why should we care about it? This market is originally owned by my Xu family. It is our duty to solve problems for various shops and eradicate hidden troubles!"

"As for the request, there is one thing. I don't know if it is easy to solve. I have to consult fellow Taoists!" Xu Deming said.

"Fellow Taoist, let me listen!"

"That's right. In addition to upgrading the spiritual veins this time, we also want to deploy a first- and third-level high-grade formation on the clan mountain, which will also require fellow Taoists to pay attention. In addition, there is a spiritual lake on the mountain behind the clan, and we want to deploy it at the bottom of the lake. A third-level high-grade spiritual energy node, so that the level of Linghu can reach the third-level high-grade!" Xu Deming made the request directly without being polite.

"Fellow Taoist, do you want to breed some spiritual fish and shrimps in the spiritual lake?"

Bian Zifu asked. After upgrading the spiritual vein level, he could understand the matching of the clan protection formation of the corresponding level. After all, the world of immortal cultivation is not peaceful now, the demon sect is making trouble everywhere, and countless family forces have been destroyed and exterminated. The higher the level of the family protection formation, the more secure the family's safety is, but this increase in the level of the spiritual lake is beyond his imagination.

"What are you doing, fellow Taoist? Are you in any trouble?"

"There is no difficulty at all, but I must declare in advance that if it is not necessary, it is best not to raise the level of Spiritual Lake to that high level. Because Spiritual Lake is not as good as the cave, it is definitely not enough to arrange one spiritual energy node, at least two are needed, so Once we come here, we can only open a third-level high-grade cave, which is not cost-effective!"

Xu Deming pretended to have something to hide, but then he gritted his teeth and said to Bian Zifu with a look of risk-taking:

"I see that fellow Taoist is also a sincere person, and he was very kind to persuade me just now, so I will speak frankly. Fellow Taoist must also know that we had four major families in Taoshui County before, and among them, the Li family was destroyed by the beast tide. He is famous throughout the county for his expertise in raising spiritual fish."

"Originally, after the demise of the Li family, the inheritance of raising spiritual fish was also discontinued, but I didn't expect that ten years ago, in a remote place where our Xu family occupied half of the Li family's territory, this inheritance was unexpectedly passed on by a Qi practitioner from our clan. The tribe got it. After getting it, I studied it carefully and found that it contains a special secret method for raising spiritual fish, which can speed up the reproduction speed of second-level spiritual fish. However, the requirements for the use of this secret method actually have strict requirements on the breeding environment of the spiritual fish. , it must be in the third-level high-grade spiritual lake and spiritual river!"

"I convened a meeting with the family's top management to discuss the matter with them. As a result, everyone agreed to upgrade the family's spiritual veins and at the same time promote the upgrading of the family's back mountain spiritual lake level. To this end, I traveled all over Jincheng Mansion and surrounding areas. We sold out all the family accumulation from previous generations at various small markets and auctions. We also borrowed money to make many close friends. We also spent all the income from the markets over the past few years. Finally, at the beginning of the year, we gathered together the spiritual stones needed for the upgrade. To be honest with you, fellow Taoist, this matter is now on the line and I have to take action, so I hope that fellow Taoist will help me!"

"Fellow Taoist, you have put everything on the line! Such courage, I appreciate it! What I didn't say, I will definitely help you!"

Bian Zifu replied, but in his heart he felt that the ancestor of the Xu family was a bit too gambling. This was tantamount to risking the fate of the whole family. If he lost, the fate of the Xu family would definitely be miserable. , let alone development, it is still unknown whether the family can be saved!

But this matter has nothing to do with him. He only needs to complete the tasks given by Shopkeeper Xi. Besides, the Xu family and Shopkeeper Lin know each other, so they may not get help from Shopkeeper Lin. This is the most important thing to him. of.

He used to be half of Lin Yishan's confidant, and he was counting on Lin Yishan to move him to the branch where he was the shopkeeper. Therefore, he would try his best to handle shopkeeper Lin's orders. Now that the ancestor of the Xu family has made up his mind , he will definitely help.

"In that case, thank you fellow Taoist!"
