The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

"Clap clap clap!"

Xu Zhisong and his wife's room door restriction was triggered.

Judging from the stunned expressions of the two people in the room, they probably didn't expect to be disturbed so early, because in half an hour, it will be time for all the clan members to gather on the first floor. At that time, Xu Zhiyu, as the shopkeeper, will help them Plan what you need to do for the day.

"Husband, who do you think it could be?" Xiao Xue, who was counting the spiritual stones and putting them into the storage bag, raised her head and asked.

"I don't know, it must be Zhikai. I remember that he seemed to want to talk to me about something yesterday, but he didn't say anything in the end. Maybe he figured it out now and came to see me." Xu Zhisong said and was about to open the door.

Xiao Xue, who was sitting behind her, touched the storage bag and urged with excitement:

"Then you should hurry up. It's our turn to rest today. We have to go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower later! The fire-maned electric-eyed leopard we didn't dare to bet on last time won another game. Those who bet on it We’ve made a lot of money, we must go early this time and put all the 30,000 spirit stones on it.”

After hearing this, Xu Zhisong didn't even bother to open the door, turned around and said to his Taoist companion:

"But I heard that the opponent of the Fire-maned Electric-Eyed Leopard this time is a Moon-Watching Rhinoceros. The defensive power of that monster is one of the best among second-level monsters. Although the Fire-maned Electric-Eyed Leopard has sharp teeth and claws, it is fearless. Everything, but it may not be able to hurt the Moon Rhinoceros, right?"

He obviously has a different attitude towards this. Although he has never seen the real Moon-Watching Rhinoceros, he knows the demon-transforming talisman drawn by Xu Zhiyu and has seen its power, so he understands the defensive power of Moon-Watching Rhinoceros far better than he does. Taoist companions must be deep.

"Last time, the three-tailed golden-armored tiger was still said to have unparalleled defensive power. Everyone almost praised it to the sky, but the result? Wasn't it killed by the fire-maned electric-eyed leopard within a quarter of an hour? The one who died? It was a terrible cry. I heard that my head was screwed off and my intestines and stomach were all over the floor. Not to mention how disgusting it was!" Xiao Xue continued to insist on her opinion.

Seeing that the Taoist couple was stubborn, Xu Zhisong didn't know what to say. He just warned:

"Let's not argue about this in advance. We'll wait until we get to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower to see the situation. I'll open the door now. People outside are probably waiting impatiently!"

He was right. Xu Zhiyu, who was waiting outside the door, was really anxious!

It has been a full month since he last purchased breakthrough spiritual items from the Ten Thousand Beasts Building, and the spiritual items he spent a large amount of spiritual stones to purchase did not disappoint him. Xiao Jin officially broke through to the second-level mid-level yesterday afternoon. .

Originally, he planned to take Xiao Jin to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower alone today to inquire about the special training. After all, it was less than five months before the time Wu Erben had agreed with him, and time was still tight.

But after closing last night, clan brother Xu Zhikai came to him privately and told him something, so he appeared outside the door of Xu Zhisong and his wife this morning.

"Why didn't the door open for so long? Could it be..." Thinking of this, he shook his head and continued thinking: "It's been a long time since we got married, so we don't want to do that kind of thing so early in the morning, right? Look at Brother Eleven His personality and usual behavior don’t look like someone who sings and sings every night! But there’s really no way to tell about this kind of thing!”

Just as he was standing outside the door imagining all kinds of inappropriate scenes, the door opened gently.

"Nineteenth brother, why is it you?" Xu Zhisong said in surprise as he opened the door.

"So who does Brother Eleven think it should be?" He put away his slightly vulgar expression and said seriously.

"No one, Zhiyu, come in and sit down."

After saying that, he let him into the room. When he entered the room, he didn't see or smell anything strange. After saying hello to Sister-in-law Eleven, he sat down.

Seeing that he had something to do with him, Xu Zhisong gave a slight signal to the Taoist monk who was making tea, and the latter simply made an excuse and left.

"Nineteenth brother, come to me early in the morning. It's not as simple as just drinking tea, right? Just tell me if you have anything."

"What, Brother Eleven has something to do, so are you in a hurry to get out?" He didn't know what to say, so he asked the question after hearing what the clan brother said.

"Nothing, I just have a rest with Xue'er today, and I plan to take her to the market to see if there are any good second-level mid-grade talisman pens, and buy her one. After her cultivation breakthrough, her His talisman-making skills have also improved a lot, so it’s a good idea to prepare for a rainy day!" Xu Zhisong said calmly while drinking tea.

"Hey! If Zhikai hadn't told me a long time ago and was almost deceived by you, it seems that I can't say it without making it clear. This matter is big or small. If it keeps developing, something might happen. event!"

Xu Zhiyu thought this and said at the same time:

"Oh! Really? Just going to buy talisman pens, not going to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower to place a bet? Just watching beasts is not interesting!" He saw it directly.

Xu Zhisong lost his composure at this time. He put the tea cup aside, then stared at him and asked:

"Zhiyu, what do you mean by this? Did you hear some rumors about my brother?"

This is not to give up until the Yellow River! Looking at his clan brother who was still harboring fantasies, he asked directly:

"Brother, I heard that you often go to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower recently just to place bets on fighting beasts. That means you are obsessed with gambling, right?"

The more he spoke, the more serious his tone became. Since the family entrusted these people to him, he had to be responsible for them. So after learning about the clan brother from his clan brother, he stayed up all night, thinking about how to deal with it. This happened.

"I heard it, who said it?"

"Don't worry about it, just tell me if this is true?"

"So what if it's true? I used the spiritual stones I earned to bet, and I didn't use the ones on the counter of Yuan Guang Pavilion. Is there anything wrong?"

"Xu Zhisong, don't forget what Article 20 of the family rules says. The children of the Xu family are not allowed to gamble. Otherwise, if they are found out, they will face the wall and think about their faults in the lightest case, or be punished with hard labor for ten years in the worst case. Do you think you are not here now?" Family, no one cares about you anymore? If you continue like this, I will discipline you on behalf of my ancestors and clan leader. Don’t blame me for not caring about the family ties. It’s still too late for you to rein in the situation now! "

"Xu Zhiyu, I also warn you not to meddle in your own business. I know what the clan rules are. Besides, this is not gambling. If you think I have violated the clan rules, then you will deal with me now. I will never resist. !"  Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more angry as they talked, and they were about to fight. Xu Zhiyu knew that both parties should calm down first, so he decisively pushed the buttocks that had just left the chair due to the quarrel back to the chair, and then took the teacup. Start drinking heavily.

Xu Zhisong, who was opposite him, was not to be outdone. He gave up the teacup and started drinking directly from the teapot. Judging from the rising and falling of his chest, he was also very angry and was suppressing his anger with spiritual tea.

After such a long time, he felt that most of his anger had disappeared. He looked up at his clan brother again and found that he had also calmed down, so he persuaded him earnestly:

"Brother Eleven, listen to me! You must be very clear about our family's 'Meteor Ticket'. Even with such an open and transparent form of gambling, many monks have lost their fortune because of being addicted to it, not to mention someone like Dou Beast. This kind of event has a very large maneuverable space, and there are even more tricks in it. If you continue like this, you will lose all the spiritual stones sooner or later.

Think about it, your qualifications are not bad, and your talent for making talismans is far better than mine. It is very likely that you will succeed in the Zifu in the future. Moreover, you will have a family, marry a Taoist couple, and you will also have your own family in the future. Children and grandchildren, if you continue like this, all of these will be gone, and not just one or two monks will be ruined by gambling. "

Hearing what he said, Xu Zhisong seemed to have listened to some of it, but he didn't seem to have listened to everything. He only heard him say in a low voice:

"If you, Nineteenth Brother, are worried about secret operations, then you don't have to. Although there are many unexpected factors in the battle of beasts, compared with the family's 'Meteor Ticket', which is based on an unpredictable number of meteors, it may not feel so open and open. Transparent, but the results of the beast fighting competition can be trusted!”

Seeing that his clan brother was still arrogant, he sighed and asked seriously:

"How can you see it?"

"Although the arena for fighting beasts is provided by Ten Thousand Beasts Tower, it is the Lingxiao Sect that accepts bets at the opening. And in order to prevent someone from manipulating the game, the fighting beasts are randomly selected and provided by a third party, so it is difficult to operate behind the scenes. too big!"

"Brother, you are still too naive. I am sure that there must be something fishy in this. I have secretly learned about the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower and know that the supporters behind them are inextricably linked to the Lingxiao Sect. , and where do you think the Ten Thousand Beast Tower’s income of tens of millions of spirit stones a year comes from? Most of it comes from the income from fighting beasts. Do you think you can receive so many spirit stones in a year just by charging venue fees?”

Seeing that his clan brother was still stubborn, he revealed some inside information about the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower that he had temporarily learned from Ye Zhenren yesterday.

"Who did you listen to? The Ten Thousand Beast Tower was obviously jointly opened by several Jindan spirit beast sects in the Qin Kingdom. This is a fact that everyone knows. Where did you get the clue from? The news is not trustworthy. Let me tell you one more thing. Although I have been obsessed with fighting beasts for a while, I have always lost more than I won. During this time, I have won more than 30,000 spiritual stones. Don’t worry. , Brother Eleven, I’m not stupid, if I lose all the spirit stones I won, I won’t go!”

I'm afraid you'll be trapped deeper and deeper into trouble! Don't worry, can I rest assured? He cursed, but when he saw his brother's disobedience, he could only sigh secretly, then turned around and left!

He knows that it is too difficult to persuade a gambler to turn back, especially a gambler who has tasted the sweetness. He plans to wait until he suffers a loss before trying to persuade him. If he insists on not listening to the advice, he will personally take action and escort him back. The family is left to the ancestors and grandfather.

After he left, Xu Zhisong hurried out with his Taoist companions and went straight to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower. He was still a little hesitant at first. Usually he would take some detours before going to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower. , but now that it has been known to others, I simply stop pretending.

Xiao Xue was a little curious about what the two of them said in the room that took so long. On the way to the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower, she asked this question.

"It's nothing. When Zhiyu went to the Ten Thousand Beasts Building to buy elixirs for his spirit beasts, he happened to see us and asked us if we also raised spirit beasts? I said we were going to watch the game, and then he asked me again. There are many things about the beast fighting competition, so it has been postponed until now." He did not tell the truth, after all, quarreling with his clan brothers is not a glorious thing.

"Speaking of raising spiritual beasts, I actually plan to buy one. Last time I was in the Ten Thousand Beasts Building, I saw a twin-tailed green fox born from a third-level monster. It was so cute, but the price was too high. So I didn’t dare to tell you.”

"How many spirit stones? If the spirit beast is still there this time, I will buy it and give it to you." Xu Zhisong squeezed the Taoist companion's hand and said softly.

"We need 120,000 spirit stones. If the Fire Mane Electric Eyes Leopard we suppressed wins again this time, the spirit stones earned will be almost enough! I don't know why so many people are optimistic about the Moon Rhinoceros, but they actually put the Fire Mane Electric Eyes Leopard The odds have been raised to 1 to 6, it seems that we should make a fortune." Now the two couples are a little stunned, talking about betting, they are fighting beasts.

What they didn't know was that Xu Zhiyu had already entered the Ten Thousand Beasts Tower before him. In line with the principle of not bothering the two masters, he found the deacon who sold him Bai Snake Liquid and the gallbladder of the Five-step Bungarus snake last time. .

"It's been a long time, Fellow Daoist Xu. I wonder if your spiritual beast breakthrough is going well?" In fact, with many years of experience in observing words and emotions, he already had the answer in his mind, but for the sake of greetings, he still asked.

"Thanks to you, Butler Xiong, it went well! I came here this time to train the spirit beasts. I told my fellow Taoist about this last time. Spirit beasts that only have realms but no fighting ability are not considered A good spiritual beast, isn’t it?”

"Fellow Taoist is absolutely right! To tell you the truth, after I left last time, I was sure that your spiritual beast would be able to break through successfully, so I have already formulated the follow-up training plan and will tell it to you now. Listen, if you have any questions or anything you need to add, you can ask it at any time, I am all ears." Anyway, no one knows whether it is true or false, and it can increase the customer's favor, so he said it in a nice way.

"Deacon Xiong, please speak."

"Although Taoist friend's spiritual beast has made a breakthrough with the help of two third-level spiritual objects, there is still a lot of spiritual essence remaining in its body that has not been absorbed, so next I will arrange various types of first-order high-grade spiritual objects for it in sequence. Beasts, second-level low-grade spiritual beasts, and second-order mid-grade spiritual beasts, accompany it to hone its own strength until the essence of spiritual things in its body can be completely absorbed. This will not only improve its combat power, but also improve its cultivation level to a certain extent. With the increase in level, I wonder if you are satisfied with my arrangement?"

Xu Zhiyu lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked:

"Deacon Xiong, I am generally satisfied with your arrangement, but there is one thing. Why is there no training session between spiritual beasts and monks? You must know that most of the spiritual beasts help their masters deal with it, and monks are still the majority. Fellow Taoist, you can consider this. Add this aspect.”

"This..." Deacon Xiong had a troubled look on his face.

"Is it because Guilou doesn't provide training in this area?" Seeing his embarrassment, he asked with a frown. Just as he said, when he arrived in the secret realm, the enemies Xiao Jin faced were not only monsters. It was the monks who posed a fatal threat. If this place didn't provide training for fighting monks, he would be ready to do it himself.

"No, our Wanbao Building provides training in all aspects, at this price..."

"Don't worry about that, please give me a quote!"

"Fellow Taoist, if you just want to fight monster beasts, you only need 70,000 spirit stones. But if you add the item of fighting monks, the price will be doubled, that is, 140,000 spirit stones." Shi, fellow Taoist, please choose carefully which plan to choose!"

"Calculating it this way, in order to let Xiao Jin develop combat effectiveness in a short period of time, I actually have to spend almost 400,000 spirit stones. But since the bulk has been spent, the rest still have to be spent, otherwise wouldn't all the previous efforts have been wasted?"

After thinking about this, he took out 140,000 spirit stones from the storage ring and gave them to Deacon Xiong, and Xiao Jin also started four and a half months of devil training. (End of chapter)
