The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 49 Meeting the Patriarch (please vote for recommendation, please continue to read)

Xu Zhiyu entered the mountain gate, and as soon as he reached the foot of the mountain, he felt spiritual energy coming to his face. In the past few months, I had been sleeping in the open air, and most of the places I passed were places with thin spiritual energy, so I didn't think anything of it at first. Suddenly coming to this place with rich spiritual energy, I felt that it is good to have a family. If you are a casual cultivator, where can you find such a high-quality cultivation place?
  So he secretly made up his mind to protect all of this. Not only to pass it on, but to take it to the next level.

When he first came back, Xu Zhiyu did not rush to the family meeting hall to meet the clan leader with his sword. Instead, he walked slowly up the mountain, looking all the way.

This is the first time Xu Zhiyu has taken a serious look at the scenery of Nanfeng Mountain. In the past, due to pressure from his parents and clan members, he was either practicing or in retreat.

Because I was born here and grew up here, I am too familiar with everything around me. I take it for granted because it is commonplace. In the end, I turn a blind eye and miss the beautiful scenery around me again and again.

I saw row upon row of houses and caves on the hillside. There is a large area of ​​first-order spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain, which are well-proportioned and criss-crossed with roads. There are first-level spiritual valleys planted inside, and there are clansmen taking care of the spiritual fields.

Although the Spiritual Valley is only a first-level spiritual object, it is very important to the survival of the family. The monks in the family all rely on him to support them, and they consume a lot every year. If there is any leftover, they will be sold in the market in exchange for spiritual stones.

After nearly a thousand years of development, the Xu family has opened up nearly a hundred acres of spiritual land, which is almost the limit. If you want to increase the number of spiritual fields, you can only wait until your family's spiritual veins advance.

But this is not easy. When Patriarch Xu Feng occupied this place, the spiritual vein level of Nanfeng Mountain was only the second-order low-grade. After the efforts of generations of clan members, it was promoted to the second-order high-grade. If you want to advance further, it is the third-order spiritual vein. If your pulse is broken, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

You must know that there is only one third-level spiritual vein in the entire Taosha County, and that is underground in Taoshuifang City. The remaining four foundation-building families of Xu, Wei, Li, and Bai all have second-level spiritual veins. Except for the two families of Xu and Wei, whose spiritual veins are of the second-level high-grade, both the Li and Bai families have second-level spiritual veins. It is a second-level mid-grade. This shows how difficult it is to advance to the level of spiritual veins.

Xu Zhiyu was walking in the spiritual field. More than a dozen of his family members who were in the early stage of Qi training were busy harvesting the spiritual grains. These family members who were in the early stages of Qi training were still weak in cultivation and could not take on family tasks assigned outside, so they could only take on some safe ones. live. Although the reward for this task is less, it is better than safety. It can be seen that the family has good intentions in cultivating their children.

Xu Zhiyu was walking when an older man saw him on the roadside and shouted excitedly:

"Nineteenth brother is back. How are you doing lately?"

Xu Zhiyu responded with a salute, "It's okay to make Third Brother miss you! We haven't seen each other for a few years, and Third Brother's cultivation has become more and more advanced. It should be the cultivation in the later stages of Qi training, right?"

"Hehe, it was a lucky break. It was thanks to you that we discovered the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein, and reported it to the family and got a lot of contribution points. I exchanged the Wall-Breaking Pill and took it, and then I successfully broke through! Otherwise, With my Four Spiritual Root qualifications, how can I break through to the late stage of Qi training now!" Xu Zhian said modestly, but the pride on his face could not be concealed.

"Third Brother, what you said is serious. The discovery of the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein was mainly due to Third Brother's great efforts. My younger brother is just taking advantage of you!" Xu Zhiyu said.

"Okay, okay, let's stop flattering each other. You have just returned to the clan, so you must go to see the clan leader first, right? I won't disturb you." Xu Zhian said and was about to leave.

"When I have time, I will definitely visit Third Brother's cave. I am raising spiritual beasts now. If there is anything I don't understand, I will inevitably bother Third Brother. But when the time comes, Third Brother, please don't think I'm annoying."

Xu Zhian, who was about to say goodbye, froze when he heard these words, turned around and asked:
  "Nineteenth brother, are you talking about the group of fruit bees? Since they settled in your cave, I have visited them several times. The group has developed very quickly, but it will be difficult if it continues to expand. !”

"Huh? How do you say this? Third brother, can you tell me in detail?"

"This matter cannot be explained in a few words. Brother Nineteenth, you should go and see the clan leader first! Come to me when you have time. How about we discuss it in detail?"

"That's alright, third brother. I'll make sure to go and disturb you after I pay my respects to the clan leader and elders."

"Okay, anyway, I will be in the family during this period. You can come at any time, and I will be waiting for you at any time."

"Okay, third brother, I'll go first." Xu Zhiyu bowed and left. When I arrived at the family meeting hall, I saw the patriarch standing in front of a table, busy writing something down on a piece of paper. Write it, think about it for a while, then scribble and rewrite it. Sensing someone approaching, he turned the paper over before raising his head.

When Xu Zhiyu saw Xu Shengzhao, he was stunned for a moment, and then walked out from behind the table happily. Before he could salute, he said to him:

"Xiaoyu, why did you come back? Do you know that you have worried everyone to death? If you don't come back, the family will send people to find you."

"Clan leader Rong Zhen, my grandnephew realized he was being targeted before setting off, so he took a detour and came back." Xu Zhiyu bowed first and said unhurriedly.

"Huh? Someone is following you. Is it Jie Xiu or someone from another family? You, a child, sent a messenger to the family, but you didn't explain clearly why you were in a hurry to return to the family, making everyone anxious with you!" The patriarch was a little worried! said angrily.

"Clan leader, calm down. It's not that the great nephew doesn't want to make it clear. Although the possibility of the messenger being stopped is extremely small, this matter is of great importance and the great nephew does not dare to take risks." Xu Zhiyu said solemnly.

"Is this really true?" After hearing what he said, the clan leader asked seriously.

"Yes, Chief," he replied.

The clan leader turned around a few times and then looked at Xu Zhiyu. At the same time, he was also guessing in his mind what the current event was. Could it be that he found out that the Wei family was going to attack us? Or has the news about the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein been leaked?
  The clan leader thought that what Xu Zhiyu said was of great importance and that something bad had happened, so Xu Zhiyu came back in a hurry to report the news.

"That's the case, then you go to see your grandfather first, explain the situation to him first, and see what his decision is. It's a serious matter, so I won't ask questions for now. Go quickly!" the patriarch said with a solemn expression.

Seeing the clan leader's expression as if something big had happened, Xu Zhiyu's face felt a little unnatural. The clan leader had obviously misunderstood! explained:

"Clan leader, don't be nervous, a good thing is a good thing!"

"Really? Are you trying to comfort me, an old man?" The patriarch didn't believe it.

"Really, the descendants of the family don't dare to joke about this matter!" Xu Zhiyu said in a dumbfounded voice.

"Okay, in that case, tell me! What good thing is worth wasting a valuable second-level mid-grade spiritual talisman. You must know that this spiritual talisman is worth nearly a thousand spiritual stones."

"Uh, this, that." Xu Zhiyu hesitated, mainly because he didn't know whether he should tell the clan leader. After all, it was a technique that could reach the ninth level of the Zi Mansion. It's hard to say whether the family has a second book besides the own skills left by the ancestors. It really matters a lot.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this or that. You go to see your grandfather first." The patriarch saw that he really had something to hide, and he said understandingly.

"Thank you, Patriarch, for your understanding. You can't forgive me for having your grandnephew here." Xu Zhiyu bowed and bowed, slowly exited the family meeting hall, and then quickly headed towards the top of the mountain.

After he left, only the clan leader was left talking to himself: "What could it be? No matter, it's my clan leader's turn to know. I will definitely know. It's useless to think too much. Let's solve the problem at hand!" "

Then I started writing and drawing on paper again.
