The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

The original Wei Family Mountain has now changed greatly.

Ever since the spiritual veins were taken away from this place by the Lingxiao Sect and given to the Xu family, there had been disputes over the arrangement of this place within the family.

Some tribesmen believe that the greatest value here is the spiritual veins. Since the spiritual veins have been taken away, this place can be abandoned. Moreover, it is still quite far away from the family, and it is not cost-effective to send additional manpower to station.

But other tribesmen don't think so. They believe that the Wei family land is still valuable, and they can completely draw a second-order spiritual vein here for the development of this place.

And their reasons are very good. Although this place is relatively far away from the Xu family land, in one direction to the east and one to the west, it also happens to radiate most of the entire Taoshui County. When the beast tide breaks out again in the future, clan members will definitely need to be dispatched to guard this place, otherwise The monsters just rampaged in, so they would definitely not be able to escape the punishment of the Lingxiao Sect. In a sense, their families only existed to guard against the monster tide.

Moreover, the Wei family carefully selected this place as their family mountain. The terrain here is dangerous, surrounded by mountains, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, there are a large number of buildings left by the Wei family before, as well as various spiritual fields that have been cultivated. , are all very good places to live, it would be a pity to give them up like this.

In the end, the clan leader Xu Sheng became aware of this matter, and even held a family meeting, allowing all the family monks to participate, express their views on the matter freely, and state their reasons. In the end, the decision to develop the Wei family land gained the support of more clan members. .

In the end, the family made a decision and sent Xu Zhengji, the only monk of the "Zheng" generation in the Xu family, to lead two "Zhi" generation monks to build the foundation, and together with twenty Qi-training clansmen, to garrison and develop this place.

By the way, the name of this place has also changed. After all, the Wei family has been destroyed, and it is inappropriate to call it the Wei family again. The people of the Xu family, who finally named it very useless, gave this place a very memorable name - the old Wei family. Mountain.

At this time, after several years of development and the nourishment of spiritual veins, the mountain is no longer the desolate scene it was before. All the original weeds and trees have been cleared away. From the foot of the mountain to the mountainside, there are pieces of first-order spiritual beings. The fields have been neatly opened up, and the fields are planted with a kind of spiritual valley called "Yuzhu Valley" specially purchased by the Xu family from Fangshi in Tiannan Prefecture, Yongzhou. If you look carefully, you will find that , there are hundreds of acres planted here.

In a large area of ​​​​the spiritual plantation garden specially opened up on the top of the mountain, dozens of spiritual fruit trees of different grades were also cultivated here by the Xu family. Each occupied a vast area and grew very far apart from each other. Far away, there is no competition for sunshine and rain, but in order to grow taller, there is still a competition between them, that is, the aura emanating from the spiritual vein nodes extending underground, who absorbs more, who They can break through to a higher level, or they can be regarded as a different kind of monks, all making breakthroughs towards a higher level.

Next to this spiritual plant garden, there are more than a dozen second-level elixir fields of different sizes, in which various elixirs are planted. This is different from the spiritual fields. The spiritual valleys are very densely planted, and the elixirs are It can no longer be planted like that, it looks very sparse. At a glance, there are only a dozen elixir seedlings growing sparsely in an acre of spiritual field.

This is because compared to Linggu, the requirements for the growth environment of elixirs are quite stringent. The growth of each elixir requires a very large amount of spiritual energy. If cultivated like Linggu, the elixirs may eventually die.

Moreover, elixirs require different growth environments depending on their habits. Some like yin, some like yang, some like moisture, and some like dryness. Therefore, these elixirs must be cultivated in categories according to their characteristics, which is very challenging. The master of the family is so talented!

However, the Xu family does not have a spiritual plant inheritance. Their experience is passed down from generation to generation. It is easy to deal with ordinary problems, but it is beyond their capabilities to deal with difficult and complicated diseases.

No, many members of the Xu family, led by a foundation-building monk, were squatting in front of a spiritual medicine plant and discussing.

"Obviously it was growing well a few days ago, and the flowers were blooming very brightly, and they were about to bear fruit. Who knew that not only the flowers had withered, but also the branches and leaves were withered, and it looked like it was about to die? This 'Silver' The star fruit tree is really difficult to take care of!" said an older monk who was half-crouching.

"Who says it's not the case! I was the one who watered and fertilized the Silver Star Fruit a few days ago. It was growing well at that time, but it only took a few days for it to look like this. Do you think it was an insect infestation? ?”

Another young monk said. He seemed to be very nervous about the spiritual plant in front of him. He kept circling around and looking at the branches, from the leaves to the branches, and from the branches to the medicinal field. Judging from his appearance, if it is allowed , he wanted to dig out the tree and study it.

"Oh, Brother Ninth, please stop wandering around. I feel dizzy. Can you please stop?" a female tribesman who was also observing the condition of the spiritual fruit tree said angrily.

"It can't be an insect plague. When insect plagues break out in the past, the first thing to suffer is the Linggu. But you can see that the Linggu at the foot of the mountain and the mountainside are growing well without any changes. That means it is not an insect plague. It should be caused by other reasons. The star fruit has become like this.”

Xu Zhitai, a foundation-building monk of the "Zhi" generation who had been silent for a long time, spoke up. He only succeeded in building a foundation in the past few years because he had studied the cultivation of spiritual plants for a period of time with the elders of the clan before building a foundation. In addition, he had no idea about the cultivation of spiritual plants. He was very interested, so he was sent here by his family to assist Xu Zhengji in management.

"Uncle Sixty-Third, should we look up the jade slips of spiritual cultivation left behind by our ancestors to see if there is any way to deal with it?"

A young tribesman of the "step" generation asked. He had just turned twenty this year. According to family regulations, he must leave the family mountain for experience. He felt that planting spiritual valleys and elixirs was a good task, although the family's contribution was not enough. It was a little less, but the risk was also small, so I came here.

"Eighth brother, the tribesmen here have memorized the experience of the jade slip by heart. If there are records about the disease of the Silver Star Fruit Tree, someone would have mentioned it a long time ago. Do you still need to remind me?" A fellow successor 'The monk of this generation responded.

"Fourth brother, since you think my method is not working, what do you think?" He was still young and energetic, and he choked back after being reprimanded in front of so many clan members.

"Okay, just say a few words. The most important thing now is how to heal this second-level spiritual fruit tree instead of arguing. The spiritual fruit growing on this fruit tree has a wide range of uses and can be used as several second-level elixirs. The main medicine or auxiliary medicine used in the medicine is also among the best in value among the dozens of second-level elixirs grown here. If this tree dies, then everyone's work will be in vain this year, and all salaries will be deducted in half. .”

After hearing this, everyone had serious expressions on their faces, and they all started to lower their heads and think about countermeasures. After all, everyone relies on their generous family salary to redeem resources and increase their cultivation. If half a year is deducted, Yes, no one is willing to do so.

After a while, someone finally spoke.

"Uncle Sixty-Third, Uncle Fifty-eight, I have an idea. Do you think it can work? The last time I went to Fangshi to act as a guard, I accidentally heard that there seemed to be a second-level spiritual planter in Fangshi. , his shop is located not far from the north gate of Fang City. This person is also proficient in the second-level weapon refining technique, and often creates some spiritual tools such as spiritual hoes and spiritual sickles. I heard that he also cultivated a famous It is a spiritual beast that turns over earthworms. It is specially used to turn over spiritual soil, which can save a lot of manpower.

At the same time, this kind of spiritual earthworm can also fertilize the spiritual field by swallowing the spiritual soil. I heard that if it lasts long enough, it can also improve the level of the spiritual field. It is really wonderful. "

At this point, Xu Jide, who was in the middle of explaining, was interrupted by someone.

"Jide, what does this have to do with the Silver Star Fruit Tree? Don't talk about the irrelevant stuff, just talk about the useful stuff!"

The old monk named "Zhi" stroked his beard and said, his name is Xu Zhijun. After a period of contact, he found that his nephew has no other problems. He just likes to talk and can't talk for a quarter of an hour. If no one stops him, he can keep talking, a typical talkative person. "Uncle Fifty-eight, don't worry. Isn't this what we are about to talk about? This second-level spiritual plant master still has a sign hanging at the door of his shop. He helps people heal various spiritual plants. I heard that Huo Yun from our Lin County before There was a second-grade high-grade elixir in the sect that was seriously ill, so we specially invited it for treatment, and it was cured without any effort."

After listening to Xu Jide's words, everyone's eyes lit up. Since the second-level spirit planter could even cure the second-level high-level elixir, the second-level mid-level Silver Star Fruit should not be a problem. Everyone immediately focused their attention on it. When it comes to foundation-building monk Xu Zhitai, he still needs to make up his mind on such matters.

"The second-level spiritual plant husband Jide mentioned just now, in fact, the family has dealt with him. When I first established the foundation three years ago, there was also a second-level high-grade spiritual plant in the family's spiritual medicine garden, named Bu. There was something wrong with Tianhan Tobacco's elixir, and the clan leader personally went to ask him to treat it. Although the elixir was finally cured, the guy opened his mouth and demanded a high price of 30,000 spirit stones."

Hearing this, Xu Jixiang, the ninth in his generation, jumped up and shouted at the same time:

"How dare he ask for 30,000 spirit stones to treat a second-grade high-grade elixir? Isn't this a clear robbery? If I were the patriarch, I would give him a big mouth on the spot and make him kneel in front of our Xu family for three days. For Tian Sanye, you have rebelled against him, so you are using our Xu family as a fat sheep, right?"

Others were equally indignant. After all, the value of a second-grade high-grade elixir was only about 50,000 spirit stones, but this greedy spirit planter actually wanted more than half of its value. This was simply a clear-cut robbery.

“When I heard the news, I was very surprised, but what I didn’t expect was that the clan leader actually agreed to his request, and not only that, but also personally sent him back to Fangshi again.

At that time, I also asked the brothers in the family who had established the foundation earlier. They didn’t know the reason. They just told me that the Butianhan tobacco plant was of great use to the family. They also said that the Lingzhufu also had a background and had a different background. He is no younger than the Xu family, so he is more polite to him! "Xu Zhitai continued to say unhurriedly.

After hearing this, everyone was silent. Originally, they thought that the Xu family, a Zifu family, would not be able to find an ordinary second-level spiritual husband easily, but now after listening to Xu Zhitai's words, they realized that things were not that simple.

"So Zhitai, what you are worried about now is not that the second-level spirit planter can't cure the Silver Star Fruit, but that he is afraid that after he is cured, the lion will open his mouth, right?" Xu Zhijun is an experienced man, and he can tell at a glance The clan brother’s concerns were expressed clearly.

"Brother Forty-eight is wise. This is what I'm worried about. What if I find him and the fruit tree is healed in the end? What if they ask for 30,000 yuan? Let alone this Silver Star fruit tree that has not yet produced fruit. Even if it’s full of fruit, it’s not worth thirty thousand spiritual stones!”

Xu Zhitai frowned and said, after all, he had just established the foundation and it was the first time he was on his own, so it was difficult to make a decision when encountering difficult problems.

"Well, in the final analysis, it's because our Xu family doesn't have a second-level spiritual husband of our own. If we had one, why would we have to be controlled by others? We would have solved it ourselves!" Xu Jixiang sighed and continued.

"You're right. If the family has a spiritual cultivator to inherit, I will definitely study hard. I'm fed up with this kind of anger. The Xu family of the Purple Mansion has to be humble to a second-level spiritual cultivator!"

Others also echoed, wanting to become a true family spiritual husband.

Xu Zhitai was very pleased to hear the expressions of dissatisfaction or sighs from the tribesmen, which showed that the tribesmen have a strong sense of belonging and mission to the family, and they all want to solve the family's difficulties through their own efforts.

"Okay, as long as you have this heart! But the top priority now is to heal the Silver Star Fruit Tree. Now everyone can disperse and do their own things! I will go find Uncle Twenty-nine now and report to him. , and then go to Fangshi to ask for that second-level spirit planter!"

After everyone was settled, he used his sword to reach a cave on the north side of the mountain. Originally, the Wei family's caves were opened in front, but the Xu family felt it was unlucky, so they opened a new cave.

It happened that Xu Zhengji was also idle at this time. After hearing the report from his nephew, he agreed to his request and told him to go back quickly and pay attention to safety.

Two days later, Xu Zhitai led a late-stage foundation-building monk into the medicine field. After working hard all afternoon, they both left the medicine field.

I originally thought that he would ask for a high price this time, but I didn't expect that he didn't ask for a spiritual stone. He just said that it was a piece of cake. His good attitude made Xu Zhengji confused and finally sent it out of Weishan in a daze.

"Uncle Twenty-nine, what do you think about this?" Xu Zhitai asked after returning from sending someone away.

"I don't know either. I heard before that this person only recognizes spirit stones but not people. I have never heard of him returning empty-handed. This matter is a bit abnormal. I will go back to the family in person and report the matter."

"Alas! I really don't know when our Xu family will have a high-level spiritual husband of our own. It will be much more convenient in the future!"

"Hahaha! Don't be anxious, this matter will turn around soon, don't worry! If you are interested then, you can also develop in the direction of Ling Zhifu! They are all cultivators of immortality and hundreds of arts. If you learn them well, you will His achievements may not be any worse than those of a weapon refiner!"

Xu Zhengji persuaded him in this way. He said this because he knew that the nephew in front of him had average talents in learning weapon refining, talisman making, alchemy, and formations.

"Uncle said so. Could it be that the family has received the inheritance from Lingzhifu?" Xu Zhitai said happily. He had indeed always been interested in Lingzhi, but he suffered from the lack of inheritance.

"Haha, you are smart. When I returned to my family last time, I heard my ancestor say that your Nineteenth Brother and the others did a good job in Tianyuanfang City. At the same time, he mentioned the inheritance of Ling Zhifu, but did not go into details. After all, there’s a lot at stake.”

"That's great! To be honest with you, Uncle Twenty-nine, since Yinxingguo became ill, the interest of the tribe in Lingzhi has been greatly enhanced. I wish everyone could become Lingzhi's husband!"

"Okay, after I return to the family this time, I will ask the ancestor or the clan leader for specific information again, and I will tell you when I come back."

"Thank you very much, Uncle Clan!" (End of Chapter)
