I am the main soul in the soul banner

Chapter 162 Going Home

"What's the matter?"

It's not that Tu Shanjun doesn't understand the world, anyway, Ding Xie has accompanied him to Yangcheng.

And the matter of finding someone was also on the agenda, and Ding Xie couldn't be allowed to stay in Yangcheng forever.

Not to mention anything else, Wan Fazong can't explain it either.

So when he heard that Ding Xie was going to discuss something, Tu Shanjun put away the talisman-making objects.

If there is something to leave, the two of them must leave together.

The soul banner needs mana from the banner master to make him appear.

The farther the distance, the more mana will be consumed, so the two must not be too far apart.

Seeing that Mr. Tu Shan attached so much importance to it, Ding Xie didn't hide anything, and said, "That's right, I have been away from home for a long time, and I have to go home and report a letter to my family."

"It's not far away. With the spirit boat, it can reach the family in just over a month."

"Beiluogu, Ding's family."

The purpose of this mission is to go home, so Ding Xie doesn't want to give up going home to visit relatives because of other things.

He hasn't been back for a long time, and he doesn't know if his home is still safe.

"It's not too late, let's go now."

Hearing Tu Shanjun's words, Ding Xie couldn't help laughing in surprise: "Is it so sudden? Let's go now?"

He didn't expect Tu Shanjun to be so vigorous and decisive, without delaying things at all.

I thought there would be a discussion, and there might even be disagreements, and the two of them might have some conflicts.

Tu Shanjun just glanced at Ding Xie indifferently.

The banner master is the one in charge, and he rarely interferes with the other party's choice for the banner master he approves of.

And the matter of going home is also a big deal in Tu Shanjun's view.

It's hard to have a vacation to visit relatives, so I can't let other things keep dragging it on.

There is no rush to find someone.

As long as there is news, and it is clear that Hou Boxu's family has been found, Zi Shaoqing will definitely protect them.

"Walk."

Tu Shanjun didn't hesitate, but he still unfolded the paper and swiped his pen to repair the book.

The two left the city overnight.

Yangcheng under the dark night is like a huge mountain city.

Thousands of lights flickering, it is really beautiful.

I have to admit that under this aura environment, Yangcheng is really beautiful from a bird's-eye view from the sky.

Even at night, monks can be seen.

The light of the Foundation Establishment cultivator flickered slightly before disappearing with his tail dragging.

I often see Qi practitioners walking in groups.

Either with the sword, or with a dash, he walked towards the deep mountain.

With the blessing of a large-scale concealment formation, ordinary people will be blinded by the formation as soon as they approach, and then return to the original path, or walk through the detour unconsciously, without worrying about being disturbed.

Ding Xie released the spirit boat, driven by mana, the spirit boat was good at facing the wind.

Place the spirit stone on the formation and activate the spirit boat.

The small spirit boat suddenly turned into light and disappeared.

The mountains in the distance look like huge beasts lying prone on the ground. The ancient trees and forests block the light, making it even darker. From time to time, some unknown ghosts can be heard crying, and they disappear in the blink of an eye.

After drawing two runes in a row, Ding Xie's mana speeded up the spirit boat.

Riding the boat with the wind.

Disappeared in the vast darkness of night.

"My family lives in Beiluo Valley. It's not a big or small family. Usually, there are large-scale transportation spirit boats to transport spirit rice crops."

"But the speed of that thing is too slow, it can't compare to Yujian's flight, and it's even more incomparable to a small speed-type spirit boat."

Ding Xie was eager to go home, and after opening the spirit boat, he returned to his usual expression, and his words were a little more excited.

Coming home is exciting for all.

In the past ten years, Tu Shanjun also thought about whether he could go home, but it just added to his troubles.

As time goes by, the impression of home becomes more and more blurred.

Listening to Ding Xie's talk about Beiluo Valley, Tu Shanjun didn't have much reaction.

He took out the essence of alchemy and the recipe of Qi Condensing Pill from his mouth, and then started to figure it out.

In January, Tu Shanjun became a little more irritable.

He has a problem with the control of alchemy, not the steps of the elixir and understanding of pharmacology.

With his powerful spirit of foundation building, he will be able to recite the pharmacology in no time.

The most problematic step is the flame.

Tu Shanjun hadn't mastered the technique of flame before, and Ding Xie taught him the Thunder Fire Seal, and the thunder fire that condensed was a bursting flame, and the interior was extremely unstable.

If it is simply used as a magic formula, there will be no problem, but if it is used for alchemy, it will frequently fry the furnace.

I did it several times, almost blowing up the spirit boat from the sky.

Ding Xie was even more neurotic and stopped practicing hard. He was also afraid that while he was practicing, suddenly the alchemy furnace beside him exploded.

Being injured is a trivial matter, but it will be troublesome if you go crazy.

Tu Shanjun also stopped the experiments on alchemy, he had to find a way to get a stable alchemy fire and refine it into a portable flame.

Using the technique of flame alchemy to make alchemy out of ten furnaces and nine out of ten furnaces, if you don't explode, you can only refine a pile of black dregs.

"Brother Tu, if we can't do it, let's draw a talisman, this alchemy..." Ding Xie smiled and sat on the farthest side of the spirit boat.

Tu Shanjun put away the alchemy furnace and said calmly: "There is no alchemy fire."

"That's right, that's right, it's the problem of pill fire." Ding Xie hurriedly agreed, while slandering in his heart: "Using Thunder Fire Seal is not alchemy at all, it's about developing some new technique?"

The scarlet eyes glanced lightly, and did not explain much. After Tu Shanjun's many experiments, the thunder fire seal method really didn't work.

The alchemy furnace is about to be scrapped, and the first-level one can't hold up, so it needs to be replaced with a second-level one.

Cultivation of immortals requires huge resources to pile up.

Pill furnace, herbs, and recipes, these are not only consumables, but also require a high degree of proficiency.

If an ordinary monk wants to become an alchemist, unless his aptitude for alchemy is so strong that he can be fed by God, he will be dragged to death in this industry.

In comparison, the talisman can be slightly better.

The talisman array is not divided into families, just relying on making talismans, this life is just an ordinary job.

Although they didn't encounter any unsightly people trying to rob them on the road, in Ding Xie's view, Tu Shanjun's alchemy was more terrifying than robbery.

Finally arrived at the door of the house.

Beiluo Valley.

Relying on the establishment of Luoshan Mountain, the mountains and rivers are beautiful,

There is a second-tier middle-grade spirit vein underground, and the family has been accumulating spirit stones over the years in order to further improve the spirit vein.

It would be faster if the spirit veins of the land without owner could be extracted, but it is a pity that all spirit veins must have an owner, even the first-level low-level ones can't be evened out.

The auction house has sold this thing before, and every time it is sold at a sky-high price.

"Senior, what are you talking about here?"

The disciple guarding the mountain hurried up to meet him, and he asked loudly after cupping his hands and saluting.

Of course, seeing Senior Establishing the Foundation would always be nervous, and even those who had perfected their qi refining couldn't stay calm when they saw Senior Establishing the Foundation.

In addition to a particularly good relationship, those who have reached the cultivation world are seniors.

Don't look at people who look young, maybe they are people who have lived for hundreds of years, and some vicissitudes of monks may only be in their 30s and [-]s, and they are disheartened to make a living.

"My name is Ding Xie, and I am the third child in the Dun character generation. I have no family background, so I have a two-character name." Ding Xie explained while also telling his own origin.

In the family, seniority is generally used for continuation, which is also a means of uniting the family and can improve cohesion.

Moreover, the children of monks do not necessarily have the aptitude for cultivation, so they will select mortals with cultivation aptitude from the huge mortal city at the foot of the mountain.

After the aptitude was tested, they went up the mountain, changed their names and surnames, and then named them according to their generation.

It's just that Ding Xie was more rebellious when he was young, so he gave himself such a name.

"Uncle, junior Ding Shanwu, family ancestor Ding Dunsheng."

"A child of the elder brother's family."

Ding Xie was surprised, and then took a piece of spirit stone and threw it to Ding Shanwu: "Take it and play."

"Uncle, may I report for you?"

"No need, you just guard the mountain, I still know home."

Ding Xie didn't make a big fuss, passed Ding Shanwu and walked towards the house.

The appearance of the Foundation Establishment cultivator in the family certainly caused quite a stir, not to mention that he was a new face, and the matter was quickly reported to the ears of the senior members of the Ding family through the juniors.

Tu Shanjun had already returned to the Soul Banner, Ding Xie was lucky to go home, he didn't look like a good person, so there was no need to follow him.

And when he appeared outside, he had to talk and socialize with people. Tu Shanjun didn't have that much thought, so he might as well go back to Soul Banner and continue to study his unfinished alchemy method.

Searching for the door of the house according to memory, Ding Xie stretched out his hand but did not push it away.

After standing still for a while, he walked into the house.

There is a big pagoda tree in the small courtyard. When he was a child, he used to go up to dig out bird eggs, and he was often beaten for it.

It is a long way to go to the mountain of apprenticeship, and it will take two to thirty years.

Come back again, the locust tree remains the same.

Looking at the big tree in front of him, he suddenly remembered the pagoda flower cake made by his mother.

An old woman was sitting in the courtyard, soaking the spiritual talisman paper, cutting the large talisman paper with a jade knife, and dividing it into piles.

Ding Xie looked at the old man and didn't dare to recognize him.

Because his mother is a monk, he didn't look like this when he left. Why are his parents already old after only so many years.

"Mother." Ding Xie called out.

The woman who was cutting the talisman paper looked up, her face was full of surprise and expectation, her eyes were moist: "Three treasures?"

"Is it you, Sambo?"

"it's me."

"Mother, I'm back." Ding Xie nodded.

"Come on, come in quickly, your father hasn't come back yet, he must be very happy to see you back."

"Mom, is there something wrong with your body?"

Ding Xie didn't move, but used mana to feel his pulse.

As soon as he got started, his expression became gloomy. Not only did his mother's cultivation base not improve, but she regressed after so many years.

There is a deficit in the origin, and the most important organs are aging quickly.

Either they have encountered a life-and-death crisis and over-squeezed their vitality, or they have become obsessed with practicing kung fu, or they have been eroded by evil spirits.

It's not normal aging anyway.

If this trend follows, his mother will die of physical exhaustion within ten years.

"how so!"

Ding Xie injected mana from the foundation-building period in hopes of protecting the organs, but the mana from the foundation-building period only delayed exhaustion.
