Taoist companions help me live forever

The undercurrent in Qiufeng County, which had just begun to surge, quickly calmed down after the news of Xiuzhen's death spread.

Li Liangyu, the newly promoted head of the Li family, unexpectedly chose a soft policy.

After regaining power, he did not kill all the Xiu family members.

He only executed some family members who had insulted his master's family as a warning. Others mostly abolished their cultivation, confiscated their property, and drove them away from Qiufeng Mountain.

He even let most of Xiu Zhenren's direct bloodlines go and let them become mortals.

Because the cultivator was not good at sex, he only married one wife in his life, and that was the youngest daughter of the Li family, Li Liangyu’s great-grandmother.

The offspring of these two people are also half of the Li family.

Outsiders see that even the Xiu family can have a good death, and other small families that are vassalized under the Tao family don't worry about being liquidated. At most, they can lose money and avoid disaster.

that's the truth.

Li Liangyu liquidated the Li family's property. Anyone who colluded with the Xiu family to occupy the property would return it within the time limit and pay sufficient compensation, and he would forget the blame.

Except for a few diehards who couldn't see the situation and were taken as examples, most of the others were very cooperative.

In this regard, even Magistrate Yan didn't say much.

If a new real person regains his family property, he will inevitably cause a bloody massacre. Being able to look like this now is already a sign of respect for him.

After all, the instability under his rule still had a slight impact on his personal performance.

At the same time, County Magistrate Yan was very fortunate that he had stayed put and had no trace of evildoers. When he saw something was wrong, he moved in to reinforce the troops.

Otherwise, there may be trouble even if there is no trouble.

And as Li Liangyu regained power, Magistrate Yan also discovered his overtures to him - the Li family took the initiative to pay taxes!

Although it is only commercial tax and the most critical agricultural tax remains the same, pay less if you can. But a small step for the Li family is a big step for his personal achievements.

Unfortunately, even though he is a disciple of the Xuanyang Sect, the county magistrate of a city, and the dignified Jindan Master, he still has to fight wits and courage with everyone in order to collect taxes every year.

The main reason is that not all the spiritual fields of these local families belong to themselves, and many of them are under the names of sect elders.

According to the sect's rules, every elder in the Golden Core realm has a certain standard of tax-free land under his name as an elder benefit.

Therefore, in order to pay less tax, local families will take the initiative to name the spiritual field under the name of the elder.

After all, you only need to pay 30% to the elders, and 50% to the city lord's mansion. Everyone can settle this account.

In this case, almost all the tax-free land under the elder's name will always exceed the limit.

But does he dare to check?

If he dares to investigate one elder today, in the eyes of others, he will dare to investigate the second, third, etc. tomorrow...

Anyone who dares to do this kind of thing will have an accident.

In minutes, they will be transferred to remote areas to guard, and even transferred to the most dangerous frontline team, and put on the death list.

Of course, not to mention the eldest brother, the second brother, as Jin Dan Zhenren, the spiritual field under his name is also in excess.

Therefore, the collection of agricultural taxes depends entirely on the field records in the city lord's mansion that have been passed down for nearly five to six hundred years.

Over the past five to six hundred years, more than 100,000 acres of spiritual land have been reclaimed locally.

But if he wants political achievements and wants to climb up, he has to attack this hard nut.

After all, Xuanyang Sect worked hard to rule Xuanyang Realm, and naturally it was not just to satisfy its own desire for power.

They are a sect that cultivates immortality, and their ultimate goal is always to cultivate immortality and achieve immortality.

But resources for practice cannot fall out of thin air.

There are hundreds of spiritual stone mines and countless resource mines in Xuanyang, but the real determinant of the sect's income is the hundreds of millions of acres of spiritual fields.

No matter how rich the mineral veins are, they will be exhausted by mining, but Lingtian will not.

Because as long as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth does not decline and the spiritual veins do not dry up, then the spiritual fields attached to the spiritual veins will never have to worry about poor harvests.

Spiritual fields can be reused, and the produced spiritual rice can also replace the monetary function of spiritual stones in a certain sense.

Therefore, whoever can collect more agricultural taxes for the sect will be the great contributor to the sect.

Now that the Li family has taken the initiative to pay taxes, Magistrate Yan has seen the difference between Li Liangyu and Xiu Zhenren.

This new real person who is half-way to seize power has the temperament of being a bastard who doesn't feel sorry for himself, and seems to be someone he can cooperate with.

As a result, Magistrate Yan's relationship with Li Liangyu deepened, and they vowed to explore a bright future for the cooperation between the government and the people.

And Lei Xian, who has no sense of existence in it, is naturally ignored.

…

In the blink of an eye, it was already half a year later.

This day.

On the Qiufeng Mountain, the Li family manor.

A deluxe room.

Yu Xian woke up with the sun on his pillow, and there was still a light floral fragrance in the air.

He squinted and stared at the sun outside the window for a long time before he recovered from the absurdity of last night.

Yesterday, Magnolia successfully broke through to the middle stage of foundation building without taking any pills.

This really surprised him.

After getting Chen Yi's Reborn Mysterious Pill, Yu Lan's physical condition has indeed been greatly improved, and she has the potential of the Golden Pill.

In the past, even if Yu Lan had all kinds of magic pills to eat like jelly beans, trying to increase her magic power was like a donkey, and she didn't dare to think that she could break through the realm with her own abilities.

In order to help her stabilize her cultivation, he naturally did his part and offered his strong body to anyone else.

He practiced the Red Pink Peach Blossom Sutra diligently all the time and did not dare to relax at all.

However, in the middle of the practice, Luo Han was deceived by someone and "unintentionally" broke in. He was like a little white rabbit entering a wolf's den, unable to escape from the tiger's mouth.

In order to achieve better cultivation results, the three of them had no choice but to huddle together.

During the fierce battle, Yu Xian, who was not enjoying himself enough, even called out Master Liu to help him fight.

As his soul contract ghost, Master Liu is nourished by his powerful spiritual power day and night, and he is no longer what he used to be.

As Master Wan Beast said, even if there is no ghost cultivation method, one can naturally increase his cultivation level.

Not long ago, Master Liu had broken through to the realm of ghost general and was equivalent to a foundation-building monk of the human race.

But only when the realm is low.

If he is unable to practice independently, after Yu Xian breaks through to the Nascent Soul realm, Master Liu will have a chance to break through to the Ghost King realm.

The foundation-building realm she once dreamed of could only be achieved by lying down.

The human monk broke through the foundation building, his body was completely reborn, and he initially entered the extraordinary and inhuman realm, and the same was true for ghosts and spirits.

The most intuitive manifestation is that Master Liu has the ability to change the virtual and the real, that is, the physical body.

then……

Yu Xian sat up from the bed, held his waist and walked out of the door, but he was thinking about it secretly.

"Occasionally, it is ridiculous, and it does have something new, especially the new body of Master Liu, which is full of reality and reality, with endless changes.

It’s just that most people can’t handle it. Inhaling Yang Qi once is no joke. "

In the courtyard.

Magnolia, whose face was full of energy and radiant, was brushing the fur of a white tiger. She was half-bent, her round buttocks were tight and looked very elastic.

It made Yu Xian have the urge to take pictures.

The white tiger is the size of a normal adult tiger, with snow-white hair, king stripes on its forehead, and bright and intelligent eyes. It lies obediently at the feet of the magnolia.

The clear water falls out of thin air, washing its hair, and occasionally swipes the water playfully, which will attract a burst of laughter and scolding from Magnolia.

"Meow, you are going to die!"

Yu Lan grabbed A Miao's head and shook it vigorously, but the smile on her face did not stop.

No matter how you say it, Amiao has been her companion since childhood. They have been with each other for decades and have a deep relationship.

Moreover, Ah Meow is as smart as a human being, and the relationship between the two of them is not just that of a pet and its owner, but also that of companions and friends.

Yu Xian looked at this warm scene, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curve.

He had seen too many bewitching women outside, and in the end it was Yulan who was a good wife and mother who made him think about her.

Only when Magnolia stayed by his side could she feel like letting go of all her defenses and feeling indifferent and peaceful.

He sat aside and watched quietly, letting the warm spring sunshine shine on him.

"Ms. sir."

Yu Lan and Ah Miao played around for a while, then walked towards Yu Xian.

"I have something to ask of you."

Yu Xian said lazily: "What's the matter?"

Yu Lan pointed at Ah Miao who had a flattering look in her eyes and said:

"I want my husband to help me find out why it can't break through. I've already fed it several second-level demon pills.

Logically speaking, it should have broken through long ago. "

I once had to work hard to get one of the second-level demon pills, but now I can easily take out seven or eight of them from Magnolia's storage bag.

When they crossed the Jinpeng Demonic Veins before, even if they didn't intentionally collect them, they still had a lot of them on hand.

Yu Xian waved, and Ah Meow leaned over his head affectionately. The cat, which had just been washed clean, had no peculiar smell, but had a faint floral fragrance.

Yu Xian was very familiar with it. It was the fragrance carried by the hundred-flower body cultivated by Yu Lan.

Now that Magnolia has achieved a little success in cultivating the Hundred Flowers Wonderful Body, when the two of them practice, they will naturally emit a rich fragrance of flowers.

Ah Miao and Magnolia often come into close contact, and it is normal for Magnolia to have body fragrance left on her body.

"Let me see what's going on?"

Yu Xian rubbed Ah Miao's tiger head, the hair was soft and flowing, and a little warm. His consciousness scanned Ah Miao's body like the most compact instrument.

After a while.

Yu Xian frowned slightly and said:

"Amei is old."

Yu Lan was puzzled: "But Ah Miao is obviously very healthy?"

Yu Xian said: "There is no conflict between him being old and being healthy. Don't forget that when Ah Miao was brought back by me, he had been imprisoned by the father and son of the Ghost Tiger Sect using secret methods for twenty years.

Its physical body has barely grown in twenty years, and its golden period of greatest potential has been consumed.

Even if you secretly fed it a lot of pills over the years, and later fed it second-level demon pills to make up for it.

But these things can only make it look full of energy and blood on the surface. In fact, I just sensed that Ah Meow's energy and blood have been losing.

In this case, it is like us human monks who break through the foundation-building realm after the age of sixty when their vitality and blood decline. Nine times out of ten, they will die on the spot. "

The light in Ah Miao's eyes suddenly dimmed, and she lowered her head dejectedly, with tears streaming down her eyes.

Yulan felt distressed for a while, and turned around to see her husband's half-serious look. She couldn't help but feel all the sadness on her face, and said coquettishly:

"I know Mr. Xian has a solution, so don't scare me."

Ah Meow raised her head in confusion, with half a tear in her eye, which looked extremely funny.

Yu Xian is like a child who has succeeded in a prank, with a very nasty smile.

"You shouldn't come to me about this matter. What can a second-level alchemist like me do? You have to go to your sister Han'er.

She previously studied demon elixirs for use as medicine, and I remember that she also researched many elixirs for replenishing qi and blood.

One of the elixirs was so violent that the monk's body could not bear it, but the monsters were different.

You can ask her to help you make a furnace, and let Ah Meow drink it when she breaks through, which will temporarily make up for her lack of Qi and blood foundation.

By the way, just in case, I have to prepare a vitality elixir similar to the life-extending pill for Ah Miao. If it breaks through, it will be foolproof.

After breaking through the second level, the monster beast will stimulate its blood and be reborn again, and the impact of Amiao's childhood deficit will be almost negligible. "

Yu Xian touched Ah Miao's head and asked with a smile:

"But Ah Miao, your sister Yulan has helped you so much, how should you repay her?"

Ah Miao whimpered and looked at Magnolia longingly.

Yulan said quickly: "Ms. sir, don't scare me."

Yu Xian said angrily: "You are the only one who still treats it as a little kitten. It is almost sixty! She is already old enough to be a grandmother.

I don’t want you to work hard to raise it for so long, and finally raise a white-eyed wolf and run away. "

"Ah Miao, it's time for you to show your sincerity. Otherwise, sister Yulan can't help you without my permission."

Ah Miao looked at Yu Xian, then at Magnolia, with a look of struggle in her eyes. Finally, she sighed humanely, stretched out a tiger claw, and wrote on the ground:

"I can sign a blood contract with Sister Yulan and become her spiritual pet."

Only then did Yu Xian nod with satisfaction.

"Very good, but don't worry about the blood contract for now. We'll see what your blood talent is when the time comes.

If it's too bad, just work for the rest of your life to pay off your debt. "

However, he had a hunch that Ah Miao's bloodline talent would definitely not be too bad.

After all, Guihu's talent is extremely high, but he has lived a comfortable life for too long in recent years, and has a tendency to become useless. However, Amiao is ambitious, and if he is well cultivated, he will be a good laborer in the future.

Yulan said dissatisfied: "Ms., A-miao and I are good friends."

Yu Xian knocked on Yulan's head and said, "Do you think her mother was wronged when she worked under me? She still complained about it, and she didn't even know she was sold."

Yu Lan touched her aching head and remembered how chubby her mother-in-law Gui Hu looked like now.

She couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said coquettishly:

"My husband, I wrongly blamed you. I went to find sister Han'er. Ah Miao, let's go. Don't disturb your husband while he's sunbathing."

After that, one man and one tiger ran away as if they were running away.

Yu Xian didn't pay attention, and with a flick of his hand, a recliner appeared in the courtyard.

Then he took out a wine gourd, which contained the spiritual nectar brewed by the queen bee for many years, mixed with the Baihua wine he brewed, which had a lot to say in the aspect of nourishment.

After taking two gulps, Yu Xian narrowed his eyes, lay down, and enjoyed his leisure time.

I don’t know how much time passed.

When Yu Xian opened his eyes again, there was another person in the sunset.

"Shiwen, when did you come back?"

Not long after arriving in Qiufeng County, Zhao Shiwen established a small caravan under Yu Xian's instructions. She did not seek to make money, but mainly to find out the channels.

Since Li Liangyu retook the Li family, the caravan has specialized in the Li family's business and has grown rapidly. Now it has recruited several foundation-building monks to serve as caravan guards.

In the past six months, Zhao Shiwen, under the protection of Wan Tianqiu, made a special trip to Fucheng and brought back a lot of news.

Zhao Shiwen smiled sweetly: "I've been back for a while. I saw the master sleeping, so I didn't disturb you."

Yu Xian rubbed his brows, the last bit of fatigue on his body dissipating.

After all, last night was not a normal practice, but he was acting as a cauldron. If he didn't have a mistake and could make up for it, he really wouldn't dare to play like this.

"I kept you waiting for a long time, what's wrong?"

Zhao Shiwen rolled her eyes at Yu Xian: "You are still so polite to me. I came back to tell you good news. This time I went to Fucheng and the demon pill you wanted is available."

Yu Xian's spirit immediately lifted.

"what price?"

Now he has everything ready, except for the third level demon elixir.

If you want to refine the Five Elements Yuan Dan, other auxiliary materials are easy to say. They are mainly some Five Elements spiritual objects. It doesn't matter if they are low-level. They can be substituted in large quantities. Otherwise, Patriarch Wu would not be able to collect the alchemy materials with his strength back then.

Only this main material makes people difficult.

When he had the choice, he would naturally use the demon elixir as his main option, with the golden elixir as a backup option.

However, it was impossible for him to rush to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains and kill them all alone.

The lessons learned from the mistakes of Master Wanshou are still in front of him. Once the Demon King takes action, he may not have the same luck as Master Wanshou.

Another most important reason is that he is lazy.

He practiced so hard and took in so many disciples, just to squeeze them and make himself happy.

He has to do whatever he wants, so what's the point of doing all this?

So his original plan was to let Wan Tianqiu take Yang Hou and Queen Bee to set up his reinforced fog prison formation and enter the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains to hunt the demon king.

Anyway, even if they were discovered, they would be the ones who died.

The most I can do is help them keep a small notebook afterwards, so that I can avenge them when I have the opportunity in the future.

Fortunately, he accidentally browsed through the county annals of Qiu Feng City and discovered that Qiu Feng City would encounter beast tides every once in a while.

After further searching for information on this aspect, I discovered that every boundary bordering the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain Range would experience a tide of beasts every once in a while.

Not only will there be demon clans at the demon king level, but the demon king will also fall.

Then Yu Xian's clever head turned.

Since beast tides occur every once in a while, and demon kings and emperors also fall from time to time, there must be a lot of demon pills left behind.

As long as he pays a certain price, he might be able to buy the demon pill.

Don't sacrifice your life for things that cost you money.

Zhao Shiwen went to Fucheng this time for this matter, but she didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

Seeing how excited Yu Xian was, Zhao Shiwen had no choice but to pour a basin of cold water on her face and said:

"A third-level low-grade demon pill and a hundred high-grade spiritual stones. The higher the grade, the more expensive the price."

At this time, Yu Xian's excited heart stopped moving, his trembling hands stopped shaking, and there was only a gasp of cold air.

"How many?"

"One hundred high-grade spiritual stones, and only high-grade spiritual stones are accepted. If you use low-grade spiritual stones, you will have to pay at least one-tenth more."

Zhao Shiwen repeated helplessly.

Yu Xian almost groaned: "Why is it so expensive?"

Thinking that he had been the local overlord in Shangyang City for more than 20 years and replaced the power of guarding the real person. After searching for so long, he only collected a little more than one million spiritual stones, and then added some miscellaneous magical materials.

It's like 12 to 30 million.

Coupled with his gains in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, he could only buy two of the lowest level third-level demon pills after clearing all his belongings.

Of course, the Li family is now under his control. Although this year's division has not been released yet, it is estimated to be only one or two hundred thousand spirit stones.

He wanted to keep a line when doing things, and he didn't empty out other people's wealth just because he was interested in Li Liangyu's life, so he split it half and half, just like the Zhao family back then.

In other words, his dividends for seven or eight years are enough for one demon pill, not counting the auxiliary materials for making pills.

It took him seven or eight years to refine a Five Elements Yuan Dan. Even if he didn't stop in the middle, it would take him at least five to six hundred years to get enough Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy to upgrade him to a first-level magical power.

By then his ashes were turned into fertilizer.

Zhao Shiwen explained: "The third-level demon elixir can not only be used as a material for heretic golden elixirs, but can also be used as elixir refining medicine and weapon refining consumables. It has many uses.

However, I only asked the big trading houses in Fucheng. If you can trade on the black market, the price should be cheaper. "

Yu Xian tapped the armrest of the recliner with his fingers, feeling like he was back to the time when he first arrived in Shangyang City and was embarrassed because of the spirit stone.

"There is no need to go to the black market, where there is a mixed bag of good and bad people. We are new here and being targeted by others will be troublesome."

He really wanted to fish, but he didn't know what he was worth. If a great white shark came up and swallowed him.

"I will figure out a solution for the spirit stone. You just need to buy a demon pill first."

Yu Xian touched his body, and with some pain, he took out a storage bag filled with spirit stones and handed it to Zhao Shiwen.

In addition to the one given to him by Master Wan Beast before, he now has two demon pills in his hand, which can be dealt with for a while.

Marder, train two more fake alchemy monks and send them to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains to hunt beasts.

"good."

Zhao Shiwen accepted the storage bag, but did not leave immediately. Instead, she looked at Yu Xian expectantly, her eyes swaying like water.

"Master, I miss you."

Yu Xian's waist couldn't help but twitch after he had just rested, but he still smiled affectionately.

"I miss you too."

With that said, he took Zhao Shiwen's hand and walked to the bedroom.

This is my good concubine, but I can't afford the salary for the time being, so I can only pay with my flesh.
