Immortal Path Evergreen
Chapter 211 Going to Montenegro Again
Chapter 210 Go to Black Mountain Again
Since the Ma family of Jiufeng Mountain was wiped out by the cultivators of Hongshan Sect, only four major families remain in Taicheng County, and the Zhu family of Liucheng has only one foundation-building cultivator, Zhu Hun, who has to stay in Chaoyin Mountain to guard the spiritual stone mine and has no energy or time to go to Black Mountain for trade.
So now the quota for going to Black Mountain for trade has become a three-year rotation.
This year, it is the Zhang family's turn to escort the Taicheng County caravan to Black Mountain for trade.
The clan leader is guarding Chaoyin Mountain, and Qingchan is a woman with a cold personality. She doesn't like to deal with outsiders, so the task of escorting the caravan this time falls to Zhang Zhixuan again.
Ancestor Liang is now dying, and his disciples have been unable to open up the Purple Mansion, so the cultivators on Black Mountain are also very anxious. Although this time, it was thanks to Ancestor Liang that the fourth-level Dongji Locust was killed, the loss on Black Mountain is still immeasurable.
In particular, the spiritual medicine garden that had been cultivated for hundreds of years was destroyed. All the spiritual herbs in the garden were devoured by the East Pole locusts, and years of hard work were destroyed. This blow was also a great blow to Liang Laozu. Hearing this bad news, Liang Laozu seemed to be a little older, and it seemed that he could not hold on any longer.
Not only that, the spiritual rice on the Black Mountain was also eaten by the East Pole locusts. More than 200 Qi training cultivators were killed or injured, and most of the relatives of the mortals on the mountain were also killed or injured. Even three foundation-building cultivators died.
Although the locust plague was repelled, the Black Mountain cultivators were also injured this time.
Especially some Qi training cultivators, because their parents, wives and children died in Black Mountain, they were already somewhat discouraged. In addition, the monster rebellion that happened every hundred years was about to come, and the Black Mountain land would definitely break out in a war. Many Black Mountain casual cultivators were ready to leave Black Mountain and return to their hometown to spend their old age.
The spiritual fields on Black Mountain could originally provide half of the demand, but now all of them have been lost. This gap needs to be filled by the cultivators of Taicheng County.
Fortunately, the three families of Zhang, Wu and Liu blocked the Dongji locusts from Taicheng County, and saved the spiritual fields at the mountain gate, so the spiritual rice production this year did not decrease.
Among the three families, the Liu family had the most spiritual fields and the most stored grain. Although two families were missing, the Zhang family had opened up an additional thirty acres of spiritual fields in the past forty years. In addition to the additional twenty acres of spiritual fields in Jiuhua Mountain, the three families raised enough supplies for this time in a few days.
Zhang Zhixuan brought the Cloud-Stepping Beast Horse Team to Yanlai Peak, joined the three families, and began to slowly enter the Southern Wilderness.
In the past thirty years, since Zhang Zhixuan established his foundation, the population of the family's Cloud-Stepping Beast has also expanded a bit, especially after Zhang Zhixuan brought back two Fire Dragon Colts from the Southern Wilderness, which further improved the source of this monster.
Now the Zhang family's horse team has sixteen Cloud-Stepping Beasts, two Fire Dragon Colts, and three hybrid horses of Cloud-Stepping Beasts and Fire Dragon Colts.
This hybrid horse monster, because it was domesticated by the monks from the beginning, has a very gentle temperament and is far less violent and rough than the Fire Dragon Colt. And it is extremely powerful, far more powerful than the Cloud-Stepping Beast. If it is used as a pack animal to transport goods, it is better than the Cloud-Stepping Beast and the Fire Dragon Colt.
Although this kind of horse is not as good as the Fire Dragon Colt, it has reached the second-grade lower grade. Because of its red eyes, it was named the Red Eyed Beast by the fourth brother Zhang Zhian.
The pack team composed of 21 monsters almost contracted the transportation task to the Southern Wilderness every year, and each time it could earn hundreds of spirit stones of hard-earned money.
The elder who followed Zhang Zhixuan to Black Mountain this time was the fourth brother Zhang Zhian. Since he was in charge of the pack team, he had to go to Black Mountain almost every year.
In the past ten years, he has spent most of his time on the road to and from, with only two months of free time each year.
He is now over 60 years old and has no hope of building a foundation. His only wish is to save a lot of resources for his descendants.
Moreover, from a personality perspective, he has loved raising horses since he was young, and when he was young, he was responsible for feeding the family's cloud-stepping beasts. Now he can't leave the herd of horses for almost a day, and he likes this kind of life with the herd of horses every day.
And he goes to the Southern Wilderness once a year, because the journey is long and the journey is very hard, and the family's rewards are also quite generous. As a ninth-level Qi training elder, the fourth brother can get a reward of thirty good deeds for each trip to the Southern Wilderness. Counting his annual salary of sixty spirit stones, his income has exceeded most of the ninth-level Qi training cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect, not to mention the Black Mountain casual cultivators who live a miserable life.
Since the family's finances have improved, the lives of the family elders have been much better, and they are no longer as embarrassed as they were back then.
The elders of their generation have contributed far less to the family than the old men such as the fourth uncle, the ninth uncle, and the nineteenth uncle, but the rewards they have received from the family are far more than the fourth uncle and his friends back then.
The monks of the previous generation, such as the Fourth Uncle and the Ninth Uncle, have been elders for more than 20 years and have never received a salary. They even have to use their own alchemy and weapon refining skills to raise resources for the family to support the next generation of monks.
Whenever Zhang Zhixuan thinks of this, he feels a little sad.
The Fifteenth Uncle died in the Southern Wilderness. Although he has some children, his descendants have no spiritual roots. Zhang Zhixuan can only take care of them secretly and let his descendants become small officials in Lushan County so that they will not be looked down upon and bullied.
The Eighteenth Aunt never got married in her life. She died in Lushan in order to impact the foundation-building realm. Even if Zhang Zhixuan wanted to take care of her descendants, he had no way to start.
Although the grandson of the Ninth Uncle, Zhang Siheng, had spiritual roots as he wished, he was a cultivator with five spiritual roots and had no future. Zhang Zhixuan could only arrange him to serve as a county lieutenant in Lushan County and entrust him to the care of the Sixteenth Uncle Zhang Menggong.
Eleventh uncle is over 100 years old. He just resigned from the position of elder last year and has been living in Tiantai Peak. His prestige in the family is enough to take care of his wife and children, so Zhang Zhixuan doesn't have to worry about it.
Nineteenth uncle had several children, but his good luck was almost all used up. Although he was a second-level spiritual root cultivator, the children he gave birth to were all mortals. Up to now, he has put all his efforts on his nephew Zhang Sihong.
For this younger generation, Zhang Zhixuan is slightly biased in his heart.
Zhang Sihong is a second-level spiritual root cultivator. Because of the serious conflict between the water and fire spiritual roots, he suffered from fire poison when he was young and could not practice. Thanks to Zhang Zhixuan's frequent care and help to suppress the fire poison.
When he was twelve years old, Zhang Zhixuan also went to Qingxuan Sect to find Chen Hongyuan, and specially refined the Xuanyin Fu magic weapon for him to suppress the fire poison in his body.
Up to now, he has obtained the Xuanyin Talisman for more than ten years. This child who has experienced hardships since childhood has practiced hard and has made rapid progress in the past ten years. At the age of twenty-two, he has already reached the sixth level of Qi training. It seems that before the age of forty, he will be able to break through to the ninth level of Qi training.
Among the young descendants of the family, the Si generation of cultivators will probably be headed by this person.
