Family Cultivation: Expelled from the Wilderness at the Start

Chapter 20 How to Survive
Xie Lingxiao and Xie Lingquan walked towards the cave hall. Because the cave was isolated on three sides and the door was facing away from the sun, it was quite dark inside.

Xie Lingxiao used his spiritual power to summon a blaze of fire. As soon as the fire lit up, the two of them were suddenly startled.

I saw a person sitting cross-legged on the ground inside the cave.

"who!"

Xie Lingquan exclaimed, then froze.

Xie Lingxiao had already seen that person's face clearly, but it was Xie Linghao.

I saw that he had entered the cave by himself at some point. Regardless of the sand and dust on the ground, he sat cross-legged on the ground in a practicing posture. However, he did not practice, but said with a look of despair: "The spiritual energy here is too thin..." "

Although Pingtian Peak has an entire spiritual vein, since the previous casual cultivators built the cave here, it was obviously because they found that the center of the spiritual vein was here, which means that the cave is the place with the strongest spiritual energy here.

And this most intense place obviously did not satisfy Xie Linghao, and even made him despair.

What if you rely on such thin spiritual energy?So what hope does he have for his avenue?
Xie Linghao looked completely lost, not paying attention to or caring about Xie Lingxiao and the two people next to him.

In fact, Xie Lingxiao could understand his mood. There is nothing wrong in cultivating people who put the Tao first. Especially for people with outstanding talents, it is the most painful thing to have empty ambitions but not be able to implement them.

Speaking of which, his talent is better than Xie Linghao's. If he hadn't been reborn, his current state of mind might not be much better than that of Xie Linghao.

Naturally, Xie Lingxiao couldn't comfort him with things like underground resources. In fact, he didn't have much hope for these people because of his past life experiences.

People like myself are now like sitting on a small boat that is about to sink, but Xie Linghao and a few others only think about escaping for their own lives. This is understandable before the disaster is imminent.

But because they had no other hope, they could only rely on the boat not to sink. However, they stood by and watched as Xie Lingxiao and others worked desperately to mend the boat, unwilling to take responsibility.

Xie Lingxiao didn't expect them to change their minds. Because it was inconvenient to solve this problem within the sect, he had given them the opportunity to escape on their own. If they were willing to be safe and obedient, he would just be a few more coolies. If they had any objections, they could take advantage of it. .

Xie Lingquan wanted to comfort her, but with the facts in front of him, he didn't know what to say. He could only whisper without confidence: "It will definitely get better in the future...it will get better."

Xie Lingxiao used the firelight in his hand to carefully explore the cave.

The cave is not spacious, but it has a certain depth. The front part is square, and it seems that it should have been the living room used by casual cultivators in the past, but now it is surrounded by bare walls and nothing remains.

Deep in the cave is a row of irregular stone chambers, about a dozen of them, each containing inner rooms for living, storage, fire storage, and kitchens.

"If we go by Shishi's inference, there should be at least ten casual cultivators who were expelled."

Xie Lingxiao thought silently.

Since the cave was full of dust and the air was extremely dull, Xie Lingxiao turned around and walked out, coming to the open space in front of the cave hall, overlooking the wasteland below the mountain, as if it was a devastated battlefield that had suffered a devastating blow.

"This place of refuge is indeed extremely bad. If it weren't for the underground resources, he would have wanted to run away."

Xie Lingxiao sighed: "The resources inside are poor, and there are threats from rogue cultivators and even other forces outside. It's really difficult."

Xie Lingquan and Xie Lingqing came behind him with worried expressions on their faces.If even Xie Lingxiao, the only pillar of support, loses hope, their group will be completely doomed.

Fortunately, Xie Lingxiao was just sighing. He shook his head and glanced at the sky, but it was already approaching noon. He said sternly: "Now that you're here, you'll be in peace. No matter how bad it is here, but you're already here, just find a way to be here first." stay alive."

"That's right!"

Xie Lingquan answered very loudly, as if he wanted to vent his inner depression: "Lingxiao, just say it, we will all listen to you."

Xie Linghao and others could only reluctantly gather around after hearing this.

"We are not foundation-building monks who can feast on the sun and drink the dew. Now we just need to take care of our food, clothing, housing and transportation first."

Xie Lingxiao shook his head and said: "The situation at the bottom of the mountain is unknown now. We need to prepare carefully before going down to explore, but we have run out of dry food and drinking water along the way."

Although they had big boxes and small boxes along the way, they were unique, but they were actually not as much as others packed in a Qiankun bag. In addition, Xie Lingxiao did not prepare too much dry food and drinking water that took up space and was of little value.

"Brother, take the map with you and use [Spiritual Bamboo Dragonfly] to go to Shangqizong later, find the family power near us and pay a visit, and buy some dry food and drinking water from their mortals for emergency treatment first. "

Xie Lingxiao looked at Xie Lingquan and said.

The Shangqi Sect opened up this area in the wilderness much earlier than the Nanyang Sect. Their family power and even the mortals have long been settled there. The most basic food and drinking water are naturally complete, and even the trade in Xiuzhenfang City has been completed. Totally built up.

"it is good!"

Xie Lingquan nodded obligingly.

Xie Lingxiao could see his nervousness, but he had no choice. He could only arrange for a reliable person like Xie Lingquan to go for such an action on behalf of the entire family.

"As for the others..."

He looked around at the remaining people and said: "If you don't want to sleep on the dust tonight, follow me and clean up the main hall and stone chamber."

After asking others to clean the main hall and stone chamber, Xie Lingxiao and Xie Lingquan said goodbye outside.

Since mortals in the family were responsible for these menial jobs in the past, the group of people were extremely reluctant. However, after all, this was the place where they were going to live, so they could only work hard.

Xie Lingxiao withdrew his gaze and looked at Xie Lingquan who had already taken the [Spiritual Bamboo Dragonfly] and the map. He couldn't help but put the remaining vermilion fruit in the box that He Lin had given Xia Zhiwei before and said to Xie Lingquan:
"My eldest brother used to work as a priest in Shanxiafang City all year round. I feel at ease when dealing with people and things. But here in the wilderness, there are dangers. You must be careful on the road. [Spiritual Bamboo Dragonfly] should fly as high as possible. It will consume a little more spiritual power. It's okay. Don't not If you are willing to use elixirs to recover, if you meet any casual cultivators, report your sect’s name to them, and they generally don’t dare to embarrass you.”

Xie Lingxiao talked a lot, and handed over all the elixirs that restored his spiritual power to Xie Lingquan.

After all, Xie Lingquan used to be an ordinary person who stayed in the market all year round. If he hadn't come to Lei Hongze this time, he had never traveled far. He suddenly had to travel alone in the dangerous wilderness. It would be a lie to say he wasn't nervous.

But he also knew that he had to get used to these things and couldn't rely on Xie Lingxiao for everything. Listening to the other party's extremely concerned and worried words, he also restrained his emotions and comforted him: "Don't worry, I am still a big brother no matter what." , Although I have lived in vain for more than 30 years, it is not so bad, just wait for me to come back."
