The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 269 Under the Recruitment Order (Please subscribe!)
  After entering the door, I found that everyone in the tribe was busy taking inventory of spiritual objects and checking the accounts, and it seemed that they were getting ready to close.

He did not alert them, but went up to the second floor alone. As soon as he stepped through the door, the ancestor had already sent a message, asking him to go directly to the meeting hall.

"Creak!" Pushing the door open, there were six people sitting inside, all with solemn expressions. Although there were teacups in front of them, there was no trace of movement at all, and the atmosphere was also slightly heavy.

When they saw him coming in, except for the ancestor Xu Deming who was sitting in the main seat, the faces of the other people softened a lot and they all greeted him, and he responded one by one. Unknowingly, he had grown to the point where for the Xu family , it was so important, but he didn't seem to realize it.

After first greeting the ancestors and grandfather, Xu Zhiyu took the first place on the ancestor's right hand, opposite to his grandfather Xu Shengsheng.

"Accepting the recruitment order from the Lingxiao Sect, this time the demon sect is preparing to launch a large-scale attack on Yuzhou, the important place of the Qin State. I, the Xu family of Taoshui, occupy a county. I will have one cultivator from the Zifu, 60% each of the foundation building and Qi training cultivators. Zhiyu, Tell me what you think!" Xu Deming asked.

He looked around and found that everyone was looking at him. He knew that other people should have expressed their opinions on this issue, and now the ancestor wanted to hear what he had to say.

"It has become an established fact, so there is no need to discuss it anymore, right? Just follow the orders!" As he said this, he glanced at Tianluo Pavilion with a very obscure look.

Despite the calm words he said, he was filled with anger in his heart. Granny Wen really guessed what was going on in her heart. The Lingxiao Sect's decision to let them take charge of the entire Taoshui County was completely premeditated! It's not as if he was harboring evil intentions, but he still played along with them.

Why do you say that? Because with the destruction of Yunshanfang City, the Wei family and the casual cultivator alliance disappeared, and accordingly the monks of all levels under these forces also disappeared, but the recruitment of the sect still had to proceed. At this time, the Taoshui Xu family The only surviving Zifu family in the county was selected.

It just so happened that the Xu family had developed well in recent years, and there were an endless stream of foundation-building monks who could meet the recruitment requirements. Therefore, after asking for instructions from the sect, Master Chu followed the trend and gave the territory belonging to the Wei family and the casual cultivator alliance to the Xu family, just to recruit Xu. Family monk, this move can be said to be seamless and seamless.

What's even more amazing is that when Xu Zhiyu went to see her today, she didn't behave at all strangely. She didn't reveal the slightest difference from beginning to end, as if this matter really had nothing to do with her! This made him sigh with emotion: Jiang is still very old. Compared with these old monsters that have lived for hundreds of years, he is like a toddler.

But these words could only be kept in his mind and he did not dare to say them out loud, even if he couldn't say them here, lest the walls would have ears.

"Having said that, there is still room for change in this matter. After accepting the recruitment order from Master Chu, I went to Taiyang Tower again and asked Shopkeeper Xi for advice in person, and she gave me a suggestion."

"Oh?" When everyone heard that this matter could turn around, they immediately focused their attention on the ancestor, waiting for his next words.

"She said, except that I have to answer the call in person, you can all find someone to replace you, and there is no need to go in person."

Everyone looked at each other with disappointed expressions on their faces, thinking: What kind of solution is this? Who would be willing to die for someone else? Are there any people that stupid?

"Ancestor, do you really mean what Shopkeeper Xi said? Why have you never heard anyone mention it?"

The person who asked the question was Xu Zhifeng. He has been guarding the Tianyi Spiritual Water collected in recent years, and his cultivation level has not declined. He is now a third-level foundation-building monk.

"Who do you want to hear mention it? The person who sets up a stall in the casual cultivator square, or the fortune teller at the gate of the market? If you think about it, could it be that the Lingxiao Sect is going to shout about this on the street and make it known to everyone?"

Xu Zhengji usually has a good relationship with this clan nephew, but when he heard him ask such a childish question, he immediately preached.

"Okay, Zhifeng, this news is absolutely accurate. Just like what Zheng Ji said, it just can't be said openly! What we need to discuss now is how many people the family needs to send, and how many people should we hire? How many people should we hire? Where can we find people? How can we make people willingly work for our family? What do we need to pay for this?"

The ancestor continued to ask, in fact, this is the core issue of this family meeting. Otherwise, there is nothing to discuss about whether to accept the call. Is there room for discussion on this matter?
  "What we discussed before was that Uncle Twenty-nine and I applied for the recruitment. Now we both remain unchanged, which means that four more families are needed to build the foundation." When Xu Zhiyu said this, his eyes began to look back and forth between Xu Zhikai, Xu Zhiqiang, and Xu Zhifeng. .

"Ancestor, clan leader, count me in. My cultivation level has reached the third level and I can share the family's worries." Xu Zhifeng volunteered.

"Well, Zhifeng counts as one! In addition, I sent a message to Shengxiao this afternoon and he also expressed his willingness to participate in the war. In this way, we only need to hire two early-stage foundation-building monks!" Xu Deming continued road.

"I dare to ask my ancestor, what if we find a monk who is in the middle stage of foundation building to join the battle?" Xu Zhiyu asked after pondering for a moment.

"That only requires one person, but the higher the cultivation level, the harder it will be to recruit him, right?" "It doesn't matter! Ancestor, leave this matter to me!"

Xu Zhiyu remembered that when he was in Yunshanfang City, he killed demonic corpses and demonic cultivators, and gained a lot of merit points, enough to exchange for a foundation-building pill.

At the same time, I heard from Wu Youren, whom he had saved, that there were not too many Foundation-Building monks like him who participated in various auctions for a Foundation-Building Pill. Because of his luck, he happened to catch up with the demonic chaos in Yunshanfang City. At the same time, for Those old friends who did not go to Yunshanfang City expressed regret for their actions. He lamented this to Xu Zhiyu several times.

What he meant by what he said was that there were many Foundation Establishment monks like him who were willing to take risks with their own lives in order to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill. Haven't you heard how others described Yunshanfang City's demonic chaos? Lucky ! He was almost regarded as a source of nourishment for practicing magic skills, but he actually said it was lucky, which shows how crazy they were for a foundation-building pill.

He was planning to go find Wu Youren and ask him to help bridge the gap between him and talk to the casual Ji Builders who were in urgent need of the Foundation Establishment Pill to see if they could be invited to take action.

Because the cultivation levels of the remaining members of the family, Xu Zhisong, Xu Zhinan, Xu Zhiqiang, and Xu Zhijuan, are too low, they will be cannon fodder on the battlefield. If they are not careful, they will face death.

Seeing that the matter was almost discussed, the ancestor spoke and asked the others to leave first, leaving only three people in the meeting hall.

"Zhiyu, there is one more thing. The third-level spiritual veins on the Wei Family Mountain cannot be saved. The Lingxiao Sect has issued a message and they will move away!" the ancestor said with a bitter smile.

"They don't want to take any loss at all. They've eaten all the meat, so why don't they just give us a bone to chew on?" he said angrily.

"Yu'er, be careful what you say, be careful." Xu Shengsheng advised his grandson, but seeing that he looked confident and fearless, and remembering that his grandson told him that Jindan Zhenren was always around to protect him, he didn't try to persuade him again. . However, Granny Wen was indeed covering up the content of the conversation between the three of them at this time.

"Also, didn't we pay tribute to Lingxiao Sect every year with 80,000 spirit stones before? Now they have increased the number of spirit stones we pay to Lingxiao Sect to 20 every year on the grounds that only the Xu family is the only one left with the power of the three Purple Houses in Taoshui County. Wan, he also said that he was considerate of our family’s difficulties, so he wiped out the small change, otherwise he would have to pay 240,000 spiritual stones every year!”

"Okay, okay! You must be grateful! As expected of the Lingxiao Sect, who is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. This thing is done beautifully, really beautifully! I am convinced, and I am convinced!" Xu Zhiyu said with an angry smile.

This is a clear arrangement for their Xu family! Recalling his previous good impression of Lingxiao Sect, he felt sick and wanted to vomit.

"By the way, Ancestor, did the Lingxiao Sect tell us when to leave? Should we go directly to Yuzhou, or should we gather somewhere first and then go together?"

"As I said, we will set off in half a month. Everyone will go their own way and go directly to Yuzhou. However, if we have made an appointment with other forces, then we can go together!"

"Okay, ancestor, then I will go find the foundation-building casual cultivators tomorrow to see if there is anyone suitable to replace the family cultivators!" he said.

"Well, then I'll leave this matter to you. If you encounter any harsh requirements and you think you can agree to it, you can just make your own decision without asking us for instructions!"

"I understand, ancestor!"

I don't know how to use family items, so I don't need to ask you two for instructions. Otherwise, if you know that I plan to use the Foundation Establishment Pill as a bargaining chip, you two will definitely not agree, he thought.

"By the way, ancestor, there are many second-level spiritual plants and first- to third-level spiritual medicines on the Wei family mountain. If the Lingxiao Sect takes away the spiritual veins, what will happen to those spiritual objects?"

"Then transplant them all to the clan mountain. Anyway, since the family spiritual veins have been upgraded to the third level of high-grade, there are still a lot of free places. It is just right to transplant those spiritual objects there, so as not to look empty. I will do this myself. It’s a trip, don’t worry!”

"Ancestor, there is one more thing. There is a second-grade high-grade Butianhan tobacco plant in the Wei Family Spiritual Medicine Garden. It is not mature yet. When you go to transplant it, you must be more careful. This spiritual plant must not go wrong! "He said seriously.

"Okay, I'll note it down, I'll pay more attention!"
