The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 309 The various behaviors of the tribe (please subscribe!)

"Senior, I'm just waiting here, why should I bother you waiting here?"

Xu Shengsheng, who was leading his clansmen to stand in front of the clan mountain gate, respectfully asked the middle-aged monk who was standing one step in front of him, wearing red clothes and with fluffy black hair.

This person is the Jindan monk who Tong Ying transferred from the Taiyang Tower branch in Bingzhou to protect the Xu family in order to repay Xu Zhiyu's donation of medicine. His name is Xia Zhangping, and he is a sixth-level Jindan cultivator.

He has been secretly guarding the Xu family for several years. Xu Zhiyu also informed his grandfather and ancestor about this, but they only knew that such a senior was near the family, but they had never met.

Just three days ago, Xu Shengsheng was handling family affairs in the family meeting hall when a strange voice suddenly came from the sea of ​​​​consciousness:
  "Clan Chief Xu, your family will arrive in three days, aren't you ready to welcome them?"

This endless message made Xu Shengsheng's hair stand on end. As if he was facing a formidable enemy, he immediately took out the main array plate of the family's protective formation and injected spiritual power into it. He wanted to use the power of the formation to find out the message for him. man of.

However, he carefully checked the inside and outside of the family, but still did not find any suspicious targets. Just when he thought he was hallucinating, a voice transmission sounded again in the sea of ​​​​consciousness:

"What are you doing jumping up and down there? How can you find me outside your family's clan defense formation? Come out quickly, I have something to tell you!"

Xu Shengsheng was even more frightened now. He ignored the obstruction of the third-order high-grade clan protection formation and transmitted messages to him outside the clan mountain. This could only be done by a Golden Core cultivator.

"I, Mr. Xu Shengsheng, would you like to know if my senior is here to give me some advice?" He had no choice but to use words to stabilize the strange golden elixir, while his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of ways to deal with it.

"Nonsense, I have been protecting your family for nearly ten years, and I still don't know your name! It seems that your grandson Xu Xiaozi didn't tell you my details. I am the Jindan monk who has been secretly protecting your family. This You know everything, right?" The voice transmission sounded again, but he was a little speechless.

Xu Shengsheng suddenly realized it and felt relieved, but he couldn't blame him for not thinking of this. The main reason was that the sound transmission was too weird and too sudden, which caused him to not think about it for a while.

"Senior, please wait a moment, I will come out now!" Now that he had figured out the identity of the messenger, he quickly agreed.

He came out of the clan-protecting formation, stepped on the flying sword, and looked around. Suddenly a white light flashed, and a red figure appeared in front of him. He immediately bowed and said hello:
  "I've met my senior! I wonder what my senior's orders were when he called me here?"

"Excuse me! No instructions, just a reminder that your family's monks will arrive in three days!" Xia Zhangping waved his hand slightly and said to him.

"But the messenger sent by the ancestor of the family said it would take three months, but this is less than half the time."

"Three months were spent without outside help. This time they returned and were helped by fellow Jindan Taoists, so they came back early!"

Xia Zhang said confidently that the reason why he was so sure was because he received a messenger from Liu Zhenren this morning, saying that he would arrive in three days.

It turns out that he and Mrs. Liu Zhenren, Granny Wen, and the others belong to Tong Ying's father's family in Taiyang Tower, so they also have contact information, and Liu Zhenren came here this time to replace him.

This made him, who had been here for nearly ten years, burst into tears. After staying in this little place that he regarded as useless for ten full years, he felt as if he had been sent away. This time he learned that he could leave. At that time, let alone the joy.

Xu Shengsheng was notified to be prepared to welcome not only the Xu clan members who had returned in triumph, but also the unseen Liu Zhenren. The main reason why they wanted to go to war was because Liu Zhenren came from the main building. . Although the two of them have the same golden elixir cultivation level, their status is very different. He and Master Liu are several levels apart!

But of course he would not tell Xu Shengsheng the inside story. He did this just to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha, and to stand here to greet him together, and also to leave a good impression on the other party.

"You don't know something. The person escorting your family members back from the battlefield is a close friend of mine for many years, so I came here to greet you!" Xia Zhangping answered Xu Shengsheng's question, but he was obviously lying with his eyes open. He and Liu Zhenren clearly Unknown to everyone.

Hearing what he said, Xu Shengsheng was obviously stunned and muttered in his heart: This is too much of a coincidence! However, he would not question the words of Master Jin Dan.

In this way, the one hundred or so clan members in the family, except for those who were physically inconvenient and could not come, basically waited in front of the mountain gate. From the time of dawn at Mao hour, until it was almost midnight, a total of four hour.

However, the faces of the tribesmen present did not show any impatience. Instead, they stood upright like javelins, facing the east, and looking into the distance without blinking.

Just like this, another hour passed, and Xia Zhangping, who was standing at the front, suddenly said:

"coming!"

Hearing this, Xu Shengsheng and the tribesmen behind him opened their eyes wide at the same time. Although they could not see anything in the horizon, they believed that this was only because their strength was too low.

Sure enough, a moment later, a black spot appeared in his sight. As time went by, the black spot grew larger and larger until the entire outline of Xu's 'Fuyao Boat' emerged.

The tribesmen suppressed their excitement and looked eagerly at the flying boat that had landed in front of them, eager for those familiar figures to walk down the deck and come into view.

"Get off the boat!" When Xu Deming saw the tribesmen who had lined up to greet him and others, his eyes flashed with astonishment, and he turned back to speak to the tribesmen standing on the deck.

The people on the boat flew off the Fuyao Boat in order and stood opposite the tribesmen who came out to greet them.

"Xu Shengsheng, the thirty-first generation leader of the Xu family, has led all the left-behind clan members to welcome all the warriors who have fought for the clan back in triumph!"

Xu Chengsheng took three steps forward and cupped his hands from afar. The other left-behind tribesmen bowed to the end and shouted in unison:
  "Welcome the brave warriors to return home!" He repeated three times, and his voice shook the sky.

Others don't know how they feel, but he feels very good. If they return from an expedition and no one greets them, they will feel like something is missing. Fortunately, that scenario did not happen.

After Xu Sheng led his tribe to perform the greeting ceremony, he quickly walked forward and said hello to the family ancestor and other tribesmen who had been away for a long time.

Xu Zhiyu began to look at the crowd of left-behind tribesmen. When he found that his parents were not among them, he was a little panicked and his face looked ugly to the naked eye.

At this moment, his grandfather also came to him. Without delay, he directly asked the question that he was most concerned about. He was afraid that he would hear some bad news from his grandfather, but Xu Shengsheng just took pictures. Patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Don't worry, your parents are fine. It's just that your father was slightly injured a few days ago and now has some difficulty moving. Your mother is taking care of him, so I didn't ask them to come this time!"

Hearing what his grandfather said, he felt relieved and looked at the beautiful scenery around the clan mountain while observing the changes of the left-behind clansmen. During this expedition, it had been nearly five years since they left. The surrounding scenery was still the same, but the clan members had changed a lot, and there was a sense that things were different and people were different.

If nothing else, just say that there were two new faces in the family foundation building team that had just followed his grandfather and saluted. In his impression, these two people were at the ninth level of Qi training before they went on the expedition. , I haven’t seen you break through the foundation building for several years.

Xu Zhiling and other new foundation-building monks standing next to him were also surprised that there were new foundation-building monks among the left-behind tribesmen. At the same time, it seemed that he was not the only one who was making progress!

Among the tribesmen who were left behind on the opposite side, when they saw so many foundation-building figures appearing among the tribesmen who were on the expedition, they felt not surprised, but surprised.

The two sides didn't just watch. When they saw the clan elders such as the clan leader and ancestor talking there, they each found their own clan members with whom they were close and started chatting.

"Twenty-nine sisters, congratulations, you have broken through the foundation building and are one step closer to the road to immortality!"

Xu Zhiyao, who is ranked 27th in her generation, has had a good relationship with Xu Zhiling since childhood, so she approached her and congratulated her.

"No way? Sister Twenty-seven, don't laugh at me. Foundation building is just the starting point of the road. It is still too far away from the road to immortality!"

"Alas! This starting point is probably my end point, and it is still the kind of end point that can never be reached!" Xu Zhiyao said sadly. Because of her four spiritual roots, she has had difficulty in practicing and improving for so many years. Now she is only at the sixth level of Qi training. It's just a level, but it has never been able to break through the late stage of Qi training. Seeing that the playmate who grew up together has now become a foundation-building monk, so I was filled with emotions for a while.

However, the one with the largest number of monks gathered around him was Xu Zhiling's husband, Mo Xinchao. At this time, he was surrounded by more than 20 people of different surnames from the Xu family to congratulate him. He was confused for a while, and finally waited until After the silence stopped, I heard someone ask:

"Xinchao, we both joined the family in the same year. If I ask you something, you must answer it like this!"

Mo Xinchao smiled and nodded. These people had the same status as him before and were in the same situation. He knew what they wanted to ask as early as after they gathered around him. He did not alienate everyone because his cultivation level had changed, but was patient. said:
  "Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly. Mo will definitely tell you everything he knows, and he will tell you everything!"

"Then tell me, how did your cultivation reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and where did the Foundation Establishment Pill come from?" The man didn't waste any time and asked straight to the point. At the same time, this was what the remaining twenty people were eager to do. Wondering.

"Is such that,"

Mo Xinchao explained in detail how to obtain the merit points of the branch alliance and how to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill. At the same time, he also emphasized that this was a special favor from the ancestors who allowed them to go to the battlefield with the help of tribesmen with different surnames. Merit points can be exchanged for foundation building pills.

After hearing what he said, many tribesmen with different surnames regretted it. They had the opportunity to be candidates for the recruitment, but due to various reasons, they declined. Now they heard that they went to the battlefield and actually had the opportunity to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill. , they were so regretful that their intestines were blue.

"Hey, brother, your luck is really enviable. In the history of monks with different surnames, there are not only a thousand, but also eight hundred. However, you are still the first person to successfully build a foundation. This can be regarded as making history! I just don't know who will be next. Who could be so lucky?”

A worshiper from the Xu family who was surrounding Mo Xinchao said, sounding like he was sighing with emotion, but actually he was more envious.

"The next one is probably not far away!"

Mo Xinchao said mysteriously. As soon as these words came out, the people around him were extremely curious and began to ask questions.

"Brother Mo, what do you mean by this? Please tell me clearly, otherwise we all won't be able to sleep well tonight!" asked a young monk with six fingers.

"To be honest, apart from me, there are two other tribesmen with different surnames who have collected enough merit points to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill this time. They only collected enough merit points when the war between good and evil was about to end. Although The Foundation Establishment Pill was exchanged, but before we could build the Foundation, we returned. It is estimated that after a year and a half, there will be a second and third Foundation Establishment with a different surname in the family!"

"Is this true? I wonder if it's those two fellow Taoists?" Liu Zhi asked, and the others were also staring at him closely, eager to know the answer from his mouth.

"It's Fellow Daoist Yue Chengyue and Fellow Daoist Lu Zijie!"

After hearing what he said, the people around him were shocked and started talking about it.

"It's okay to say that Fellow Daoist Yue is a sword cultivator and has very strong combat power. It makes sense that he can kill demon cultivators and gain enough merit points to exchange for foundation-building pills. But when Fellow Daoist Lu applied, I remember he was only at the seventh level of Qi training. , and he is an alchemist and is not good at fighting. I wonder how he got so many merit points?" A tribesman with a different surname asked doubtfully.

"What Fellow Daoist said makes sense! Hey, do you think it could be that Fellow Daoist Lu did not go to the battlefield, but was recruited to make alchemy? Where are the merit points obtained through alchemy in the end?" Another person guessed.

"Absolutely not! I heard that the branch alliance has summoned a large number of alchemists in Yuzhou to refine alchemy for the frontline monks. The lowest grade has to be a first-class high-grade alchemist. He is just a first-class mid-grade alchemist. How can he be qualified? Listed among them!" This was a family alchemist offering sacrifices. As the saying goes, peers are enemies, so what he said was a bit too subjective.

"Okay, we can't draw any conclusions here by guessing. I see that there are no clansmen around those two fellow Taoists. Why don't we go over and ask and find out?" Someone else suggested.

"Okay, what you said, fellow Taoist, is very much what I want. Let's go, let's go together!"

"Go together! Go together!"

The monks surrounding Mo Xinchao dispersed with a roar, and then surrounded Yue Cheng and Lu Zijie to ask questions.

But Xu Zhizhi felt uneasy at this time, because she found that her twin brother was not here, which made her anxious. She found a clan brother with whom she had a good relationship before and asked about it.

"Zhilei, my sister is asking you, do you know where Zhisheng went?"

Xu Zhilei looked at this witch-like clan sister and really wanted to turn around and run away, but his reason told him that if he did this, he would definitely be worse off in the future, so he could only bite the bullet and answer:
  "Sister, clan brother Zhisheng is currently in seclusion to break through and build a foundation!"

"What did you say? He has already broken through seclusion! When did he go into seclusion?" Xu Zhizhi became anxious, grabbing his clan brother's shoulders and shaking them.

"It's been two months!" Xu Zhilei was shaken so hard that he answered with difficulty.

"Two months? It's not too long. I still have a chance. No, I have to go to the ancestor now and ask him to approve my breakthrough in seclusion now. I can't lose to him, no!"

After saying that, he turned around and ran away, going straight to Xu Deming and the clan leader Xu Sheng, who was visiting the tribesmen who participated in the war one by one.

Xu Zhiyu was not idle at this time. He started chatting with the new foundation-building monks who stayed behind in his family, and the conversation was very speculative.

Just when everyone was looking for someone to talk to, they heard their ancestor Xu Deming ordering everyone to come to the square in front of the family meeting hall, saying that they had something to announce.

When all the tribesmen stood still, Xu Deming stood on the high platform in the center of the square, faced the tribesmen, and said loudly:
  "Listen up, tribesmen, I am going to announce three decisions now."

"The first is that the tribesmen participating in the battle this time will no longer need to perform any family tasks within ten years, and can just practice with peace of mind!"

"Secondly, all the tribesmen killed in the battle will be given double pensions. If the monk who died in the battle has no Taoist companions or descendants, then when the nearest relative of the tribesman has a monk, that person will inherit!"

"Third, I felt that the family was developing too fast, and I was worried that the members of the clan were mixed, so I specially purchased a set of third-level mind-asking formations. All family monks, starting from me, must go through this mind-asking formation. In view of this The tribesmen who are on the expedition are quite tired now, so the test of the Heart-Questing Formation will be postponed to half a month later!"

"Okay, that's all I have to announce. You can stay here for a while, I have something to tell you. The rest of the tribe should disperse!"

Originally, everyone was going back to reunite with their relatives or close clan members, but unexpectedly, one clan member spoke.

"Ancestor, Patriarch! I have a request!" It was Xu Zhizhi who spoke. She couldn't wait for a quarter of an hour, let alone ten days!

"Zhizhi, just tell me if you have anything to do!" Xu Shengsheng said kindly.

"I want to go into seclusion immediately to break through the foundation building. I request that I don't do the heart-searching test for the time being. May the noble family be kind to you!"

"This" Xu Shengsheng turned his head, saw Xu Deming nodded slightly, and said immediately:

"Okay, I'm sure! But after building the foundation, you can't forget this! Just go ahead!"

"Granddaughter, remember this!"

Xu Zhizhi bowed and left happily.
