Chapter 385: Dusk Clouds on Yushan Mountain

Li Yuanjiao followed him to the mushroom forest. Yuan Huyuan took him to the top of the mountain, apologized, and went to the clan to discuss exchanging pills.

Li Yuanjiao sat on the top of the mountain for a while. A direct descendant of the Yuan family who practiced Qi accompanied him to chat. This person looked good and could speak. Li Yuanjiao responded in a disjointed manner, but he was suspicious and said to himself:

"Hook Snake...matching fate special method...north."

He put his hand on the table and tapped it lightly, suspicious in his heart. The Yuan family member next to him saw that he was absent-minded and did not dare to disturb him. He gradually stopped talking. Li Yuanjiao sorted out the veins and his expression was not very good.

'Living in the entanglement of the purple mansion supernatural power and fate, everything is suspicious...First find out the "Six Weir Matching Fate Special Method" clearly, and then go back to ask the hook snake. ’

It was not until Yuan Huyuan came back from outside that Li Yuanjiao smiled and said eagerly:

"Senior? How is it?"

Yuan Huyuan threw his sleeves and smiled:

"Of course, no problem."

Yuan Huyuan and Yuan Tuan were from the same lineage and had great influence in the Yuan family. Although he was a Qigong cultivator, he had been managing the family for many years. He had already brought two jade slips and introduced them:

"This is the "Six Weirs Matching Life Special Method", Taoist friend, take a closer look! The other one is the required cold air gathering method, Taoist friend, take a look to see if there is any duplication."

Li Yuanjiao took the jade slip. The middle of this method was sealed by a secret technique, and only the contents before and after were available. Li Yuanjiao read it. , suddenly said:

"Senior! I have a few doubts."

Yuan Huyuan was thinking with his head down, and was suddenly stared at by Li Yuanjiao. He jumped and replied:

"My dear nephew, please tell me."

"If the spell fails, this "Six Weirs Matching Life Special Method" only says that all the spiritual objects are gone, and does not mention the fate of the monsters. The nobles have tried many times, so why not tell me."

Yuan Huyuan was stunned after hearing what he said, and smiled bitterly:

"At the least, you will be injured and your life will be shortened, and at the worst, you will die..."

Li Yuanjiao's smile faded a little, and he only said:

"Senior's spell... is indeed very expensive."

Li Yuanjiao seemed a little unhappy on the surface, but he was very relaxed and satisfied in his heart.

Li Yuanjiao felt moved when he heard this spell, not just for a small hook snake. Although the foundation-building combat power is very tempting, the cold air is also needed by himself, but they are secondary.

In his opinion, the biggest use of this spell is to cover up the fact that the family often captures monsters alive. In order to find a similar spell, the Li family has been paying attention for a long time.

‘After all, my family often captures monsters alive for sacrifice. These monsters go up the mountain and then disappear. It’s okay once or twice, but if it happens more often in the future, it will be difficult to get rid of it if someone investigates. ’

‘As long as we have this spell, we can catch monsters and bring them back to the mountain openly in the future. After the sacrifice, we can just say that the spell failed and pass it off…’

Moreover, Li Yuanjiao knew that the Yuan family failed several times because they could not find a suitable purple mansion-level spiritual object, so they could only use foundation-building spiritual objects, which is why they failed many times.

Not to mention that the family has a constant supply of unknown grade of Taiyin Yuehua, when Yu Muxian came to Wangyue Lake and the Immortal Mirror showed his god, the entire secret room was filled with white and gold osmanthus and moon-bright orchids.

The Li family could not tell what kind of spiritual object it was, but they still collected and stored it. Although they did not know the taboos of preservation, the method of sealing the spirit was too poor, causing it to disappear day by day, but there were still many in the purple palace-level jade box that had not disappeared.

With confidence in his heart, Li Yuanjiao asked again:

"What is the origin of this magic, senior? If it is some secret method of unknown origin or offending people, I dare not use it."

Li Yuanjiao had a plan in mind, but Yuan Huyuan looked at his face and felt that he had concealed something from Li Yuanjiao, which was a little embarrassing. When Li Yuanjiao asked, he hurriedly compensated:

"This "Six Weirs Matching Fate Special Method" was obtained by my ancestor from the northern [Yanyang Temple Palace]. He inherited it and soared to the sky, and then the later Yuan family was established. Recently, there has been..."

Yuan Huyuan counted on his fingers and replied:

"I am afraid it has been 1,600 years."

"1,600 years?!"

Li Yuanjiao muttered in his heart for a while, unbelievable, Yuan Huyuan explained:

"My ancestor encountered a good opportunity to establish the Taoist tradition, but unfortunately it was a dark age, the ancient Wei Kingdom was destroyed, the Hu Jie tribes went south, and the golden demons were everywhere. Although he was a real person, he was only Just to protect ourselves..."

"Later, my family was displaced and moved southward. The real person was captured and eaten by Jin Xing halfway. The clansmen fled in all directions, and most of the Taoist traditions were lost. My branch fled to Xu State six hundred years ago, and only two Qigong cultivators were left."

When Yuan Huyuan said this, he showed a proud look and continued:

"The ancestors continued to move south and fought with the ancestors of the Chi family many times. They occupied the mushroom forest. After all, they were descendants of the Purple Mansion, and many of them built foundations. After more than a hundred years, the Qingchi Sect was established, and my family was incorporated into it. At that time, four of the twelve peaks were occupied, and it was prosperous for a time."

Li Yuanjiao continued to listen, and Yuan Huyuan suddenly smiled awkwardly and said in a low voice:

"It's a pity that my family failed to attack the Purple Mansion several times and slowly declined..."

Li Yuanjiao could naturally see his loneliness. Today's Jiangnan is not like hundreds of years ago. At that time, there were few cultivators, and spiritual objects were everywhere. The Immortal Mansion had just withdrawn from the world, and it was a time of turmoil.

The strength of the Yuan family at that time was almost the same as it is now. It is natural that they are a little unwilling to see it still be the same after hundreds of years.

Yuan Huyuan sighed:

"Ziyan was a small town at that time, and the Kong family was running around for a small county magistrate. [Wan Yujian] became a small guest under the rule of Dongli Zong, and the Chen family of Lingyu rented a cave on my family's territory for three reasons. Ten pieces of spirit stone are so humble, and four doors tied together can’t compare to the size of one of my houses… now… now… it’s harmful!”

In the era when snakes turned into dragons, the Yuan family wasted all the opportunities little by little, which was always a pain for many elderly people in the Yuan family. Yuan Huyuan could only sigh repeatedly and could not say a word.

Li Yuanjiao nodded slightly. The Yuan family's luck was indeed not very good, but his suspicions were relieved by 10% or 20%:

'At least the "Liuyan Life Matching Technique" itself is not a trap. This technique has a longer history than Qingchi...'

Now he held the spell in his hand, and the other one given by the Yuan family was the Qi Gathering Technique, which collected [Lin Minghan Qi]. He put it away together, took out the elixir, and said softly:

"Please noble Ji Ji to follow me to catch the monster. After the task is completed, I will deliver the elixir, and the senior will unlock the secret method on the jade slip for me."

"good!"

Yuan Huyuan nodded quickly and replied:

"My dear nephew, wait a minute! I have invited the monks from the clan to come over."

The two waited for a while, and then a strong man with a beard and thick eyebrows landed in the yard on the wind. He glanced at Li Yuanjiao, cupped his fists and said:

"Your Majesty Yuan Chengdun, I have met the clan leader and fellow Taoist!"

Yuan Huyuan introduced:

"This man is my nephew Yuan Chengdun, Immortal Base [Fu Qingshan]. He is good at subduing demons and suppressing demons. Let him go with his Taoist friends. The little pig demon will definitely be captured easily."

Yuan Chengdun was quite famous among the demonic disasters. Li Yuanjiao had also heard of his name, and he was overjoyed and bowed his hands.

"I've met fellow Taoist!"

Yuan Chengdun was carrying two short sticks on his back. He was in the middle stage of foundation building. He didn't seem to like to talk. He only nodded slightly as a reply.

Li Yuanjiao asked him casually and took him to the lake.

…

Li family.

Li Yuanping sat high in the middle hall, and standing beside him was a young man, tall, with thick eyebrows, who looked very generous. He was Li Xiya.

The talents of the Xiyue generation are all very good. Except for Li Yuanjiao, who got a daughter from his elder brother, Li Yuexiang, who is not yet six years old and has no known talent, the rest of the direct descendants are not bad.

Li Xiya is in his thirties and has already reached the second level of Qi training. At this moment, he said respectfully:

"...The matter at the mine has been resolved...it was a rat demon...who sent Uncle Qiuyang there..."

Li Yuanping listened carefully to what he said and said patiently:

"Bo'er, the Qingwu Mine has the largest output. You must keep it in your own hands. Uncle Qiuyang is the right one... All disturbances in the mine must be carefully investigated. Maybe someone used monsters to smooth out the holes left by stolen mines. …”

Li Xi'ao's tall body hung down, nodded thoughtfully, and replied:

"Junior, remember this."

"good."

Li Yuanping nodded and continued:

"Go to Shanyue. I'll find Li Jiman for you and have a heart-to-heart talk with him. Shanyue produces a lot..."

Li Xi'ao nodded in agreement, and Li Yuanping asked:

"Counting the time, most of the Chengming generation have reached old age. You have many heirs, but are there any outstanding ones?"

Li Xiya replied:

"The talents of all the disciples of the big and small sects are good. Two of the concubines were carried back to the big sect because their children had spiritual apertures. Now there are a total of eleven people who are practicing on the mountain."

"As for the outstanding ones."

Li Xi'ao paused and whispered:

"Everyone has a talent that can be used to practice qi. It's just that the talent or character is particularly outstanding, but I haven't seen it yet..."

Li Yuanping was not in a hurry and said warmly:

"With the implementation of the new system, there are many close friends among the four lines. These children have been eating and living together since they went up the mountain. As long as their hearts are devoted to the family, they will become Qi practitioners and the backbone of the family in the future. It does not require much ability on their part."

Li Yuanping glanced at Li Xi'an beside him, feeling a little worried after all, and explained in detail:

"All the direct monks from the large sect and the small sect will go to the mountain to practice. The purpose is to make them familiar with each other and send them to govern the peak mansion in the future. As for Qingdu Mountain, there will be no big problem with a few of your brothers sitting in charge."

The uncle and nephew discussed carefully, then a man came up and said respectfully:

"The head of the family...Yu Shan and Xiao Muyun are here to visit!"

"Xiao Muyun?"

Li Yuanping was stunned and said happily:

"Come in quickly!"

So a young man came up. He looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with a third-level cultivation level. He was dressed in black and bowed steadily:

"Mu Yun has met his uncle!"

This son was Li Qingxiao's son, Xiao Xian's orphan, and Xiao Muyun, the young master of Yushan. Li Yuanping quickly went down to help him up. He took a closer look and saw that he looked calm and his eyes were bright. He praised:

"Good, good attitude, good demeanor."

Xiao Muyun humbly handed over his hand. The third level of fetal breathing at the age of twelve or thirteen was really good. Li Xi'ao also came up to greet him and said with a smile:

"It turns out to be my cousin."

Li Qingxiao and Xiao Muyun were rescued by the Li family. Xiao Muyun was naturally very kind to them. Li Yuanping said eagerly:

"What happened to Yu Shan? Your second uncle has already laid the foundation. If necessary, your uncle's family will support you!"

Xiao Muyun was very moved when he heard this and only replied:

"Uncle! When my father and grandfather both died, it was the family who came to the rescue, made various efforts, and helped with spiritual stones and talismans, so that I could keep my position as the head of the family!"

"Yu Shan is now in the hands of my mother and I, and only some old stubborns are left. I came here this time to pay back the seventy spirit stones I borrowed!"

He took out a storage bag from his arms, handed it to Li Xiya, and said respectfully:

"If there is any need at home, the Yushan family will definitely help!"

"Hey!"

Li Yuanping shook his head and replied:

"Yu Shan belongs to the Xiao family after all. If you have too many contacts, I'm afraid it will be untrue. It will be the greatest help if you practice hard and break through the foundation building early."

"yes!"

Xiao Muyun responded solemnly, and Li Yuanping ordered Li Xiya:

"Take your cousin for a walk and meet all the brothers."

Li Xi'ao accepted the offer, and the two of them went down peacefully. Li Yuanping then opened the storage bag, which contained eighty spiritual stones, ten more. Li Qingxiao wrote a small letter, sincerely, every word. sincere.

‘With these eighty pieces, the holes for building formations at home have been filled up. ’

The matter that had been weighing on his mind for a long time was finally solved. He put away the storage bag and his mood rarely improved.

Things were arranged at this end. A group of soldiers came in from outside the hall. They entered the hall in two steps and said in a low voice:

"Head of the family, the elders are here to ask...are there any calm spirit creatures in the clan?"

The elder in his words was naturally Li Xuanxuan. The Li family was severely damaged, and he was the only one who could be called an elder.

Li Yuanping hesitated to speak and whispered:

"If necessary, I will send someone to Qingdu Peak to ask."

Li Xuanxuan was only seventy years old by calculation. He had only used the longevity-breaking technique many times and had been seriously injured three or four times. He was very old. He wasted his time on the talisman year after year and refused to relax.

Li Xuanxuan had no hope of progress. His current level of cultivation was due to many opportunities. Now he stubbornly broke into the talisman and became more and more suspicious.

Every time he practices breath control, many illusions always appear, and he has mental blockages, and needs the help of meditation pills to calm down.

The old man couldn't even draw talismans anymore. He had been taking the Jingxin Pill at home. As soon as he took the medicine, he felt that the spiritual stones at home were wasted and he was furious at drawing talismans.

Li Yuanping closed his eyes and sighed. Li Xuanxuan was now the oldest, and no one in the family could persuade him to move, and he refused to stop for a while.

'Some elixirs are second best...I'm afraid...of harm! ’

The Li family invited people to calculate and estimate that Li Xuanxuan should have eighty or ninety years left in his life. Only half of his long life has passed. But seeing as he is so dedicated and crazy, he may lose more than ten years.

Li Yuanping was so engrossed in his thoughts that he felt cold all over his body and couldn't stop coughing. He took a sip of herbal tea made from Linghua and suddenly realized:

"I don't have a few years left."

He felt dizzy for a while, silently sat back at the front desk, and tapped the desk gently:

"Eleven people...all have the hope of practicing qi...Sister Hong will soon build the foundation. In another thirty years, she will be able to build the foundation tomorrow. There are fifteen or sixteen direct descendants in the family practicing qi..."

Li Yuanping thought of the Yu family back then for no reason, and his heart sank slightly:

"Excessive prosperity can easily lead to decline...I wonder if this guy Xi'an can manage his family well..."
