Cultivation begins with the Shen family

Chapter 23 Returning to the Family
After more than half a month of continuous martial law throughout the city, the monks of the county government finally opened the closed city gates and allowed the monks in the city to start entering and leaving the city gates.

But every monk and every vehicle passing through the city gate has to be carefully checked and verified by the city guard monks.

Outside the back door of the Shen family's shop, Shen Xiangchi and Shen Zhirui said goodbye to the second elder Shen Xianghuan and others, and then led the clansmen who had come with them to the gate of the city in several empty carriages.

When passing through the city gate, the members of the Shen family and their vehicles were checked and verified by the monks defending the city, and finally passed quickly after obtaining permission.

During the whole process, both Shen Xiangchi and Shen Zhirui were calm and did not panic, as if they were not worried about anything.

That's because they didn't intend to bring all the cultivation materials in those two storage bags back to the family at this time.

They just took out some of the supplies and put them into the storage bags of the tribesmen, and left most of the supplies in the underground secret room of the shop.

Moreover, each storage bag was restricted by Shen Xiangchi himself, so even Shen Daoquan and Shen Daoming and other late Qi training clansmen did not know what was in their own storage bags.

In this way, the Shen family's group took a batch of supplies and left the county smoothly after being inspected by the monks defending the city.

After all, the monk's storage bag is the biggest secret of the monk, and the things in it are unwilling to let others know.

Therefore, no matter how domineering and overbearing the Xuanling Sect is, they dare not risk the displeasure of the world by searching the storage bags of every monk passing through the city gate.

As for the strict investigation of the monks defending the city, it is more of a psychological tactic, to let those who have evil intentions show their feet, and thus fall into the trap that the monks of the county government have already prepared.

After two days and one night of trekking, everyone in the Shen family saw Biyun Mountain again after a long absence.

Looking from a distance, the entire Biyun Mountain stands tall and straight, and the rolling mountains are like giant beasts crawling.

Everyone came to the oasis at the foot of Biyun Mountain, and they could see several mortal towns distributed beside the stream.

The people living in these towns are all the secular mortals of the Shen family, and they are all descendants of the monks of the Shen family in the past.

The Shen family has been in Biyun Mountain for nearly 300 years, and now the secular mortals at the foot of the mountain have reached a scale of more than [-] after generations of reproduction.

It is also extremely difficult for ordinary people to survive in the world of cultivating immortals. They must rely on monks to survive, otherwise they can only be reduced to the rations of those monsters, ghosts and other creatures.

In particular, Shayu County is still in the most marginal area of ​​the world of cultivating immortals, and is always facing the crisis of being swallowed by the sea of ​​unrecognizable spirits.

Without the protection of the monks, mortals would be powerless to survive, and hundreds of thousands of people would disappear in a blink of an eye.

Shen Zhirui and his party passed through the oasis at the foot of the mountain and started to go up the mountain. The lands on the mountainside that are rich in spiritual energy have been turned into spiritual fields, and every mu of spiritual fields is a rare property of the family.

Because the opening of one mu of spiritual fields and the subsequent maintenance work required a lot of resources, the Shen family hadn't opened up new spiritual fields for many years, and only relied on the more than ten acres of spiritual fields to barely survive.

When everyone came to Yuxiu Terrace, Third Elder Shen Xiangchu and other elders of the family were already waiting.

After the patriarch Shen Xiangchi gave a few simple instructions, he brought Shen Daoquan, Shen Daoming and the third elder together into the family meeting hall, and the rest of the clan dispersed.

After getting Shen Xiangchi's consent, Shen Zhirui also left with the crowd and walked towards his residence.

It took a total of more than two months to go to the county this time, and when he came back, his small courtyard was still the same as when he left.

I saw that Shen Zhirui skillfully pinched out the formula to open the restriction on the door, and then opened the door and entered his courtyard.

The moment he lay on the bed, he felt his whole body relax, and the string that had been tense a while ago finally had time to relax.

Recalling this trip to the county seat, Shen Zhirui also felt a lot of emotion in his heart, it was really hard to say.

After leaving Biyun Mountain, they were first attacked by a group of sand wolves, and then they were attacked by a group of mysterious men in black.

In the course of these two attacks, five clansmen unfortunately fell, and three clansmen including Shen Xiangzhong were seriously injured.

Then he accidentally bought two things in the casual repair market in the county, and the gambling stone among them even opened up a piece of earth spirit.

Later, he participated in the concubine feast of the monks in the foundation building period. This was the first time in his life that he saw the demeanor of the monks in the foundation building period. touch.

The foundation building period will be the goal of his next practice!

But what really scares him when he thinks about it at this moment is the fishing in troubled waters in the county office that night.

Fortunately, although this operation is full of dangers, the rewards obtained are also huge enough.

Not only did he obtain training materials worth tens of thousands of spirit stones for the family, but he also obtained two things for the patriarch to increase the success rate of foundation building.

But what happened in these short two months was more colorful than his previous ten years of life.

Just like that, Shen Zhirui briefly closed his eyes on the bed and thought about it, and then immediately took out a cloth bag from his storage bag.

Looking at the handful of wrinkled seeds in the cloth bag, a faint smile could not help appearing on his face.

He soon came to a hidden corner in his backyard, and there was actually a small elixir field hidden here.

This elixir field was built by Shen Zhirui with a lot of painstaking efforts. Its grade has reached the first-tier mid-tier, and all the elixir he has prepared for his future practice is planted.

Among them are the [Spinning Grass] needed for refining [Xuanyuan Pill], as well as [Red Beard Grass], [Purple Acorn], etc., which are needed in the later stage of refining Qi training pills but are quite rare. Elixir.

I saw that he came to a small open space, and then carefully dug out several shallow pits on the spiritual field.

After the seeds that had been cultivated by special spiritual power were sprinkled in each of these shallow pits, he absorbed several more spiritual powers to bury all the spiritual soil in the shallow pits.

The next moment, he immediately pinched out another formula, and as a mist of mist appeared above the spiritual field, the entire spiritual field began to rain.

It wasn't until this was done that Shen Zhirui squatted down again, and a touch of emerald green spiritual power burst out from the palm of his hand.

When this spiritual power was poured into one of the shallow pits, after only half a cup of tea, a young sprout penetrated the soil pressed on it at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally successfully broke through the ground.

Seeing this scene, Shen Zhirui couldn't help being overjoyed, and immediately urged the seeds in the other shallow pits to germinate.

Then he immediately took out several spirit stones from his storage bag, and sprinkled the crushed spirit stone powder next to these seedlings, so that the latter could absorb enough spiritual power to grow.

Although Shen Zhirui still doesn't know what kind of spiritual plants these seeds will be when they grow up, he can be sure that they are not ordinary spiritual plants, maybe some kind of second-order spiritual plants!
