Chapter 273 Dharma Seed! Xiao Xiyue Leaves!
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Due to the battle in the Red Leaf Valley Market, Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge have become famous and well-known.
So during this time, many independent cultivators or small families came to seek refuge.
For this, Lu Changsheng and Ling Zixiao, Lu Miaoge, and Xiao Xiyue had a brief discussion.
Independent cultivators with a skill and a clean family background can be recruited as guest officials of the family.
If they do not have a skill, they will sign a contract to sell themselves or a labor contract.
As for the vassals of small families, none of them are wanted.
After all, the current power of Bihu Mountain is supported by Lu Changsheng, Lu Miaoge, and Ling Zixiao, and there is no strength to expand outward.
For this kind of thing, we must wait until some of the children in the family have reached the late stage of Qi Refining before they can be sent out to sit and take charge of the development.
In addition to these two types, there are also some female independent cultivators, daughters of small families, who voluntarily come to Bihu Mountain as slaves and maids, hoping to be favored by Lu Changsheng and marry the sons and young masters of the Lu family.
After all, the behavior of the Lord of Bihu Mountain who likes to marry, take concubines, and have children is also widely spread.
If they are favored by this ancestor Lu, for many independent cultivators and daughters of small families, it can be said that they have become phoenixes by flying up the branches.
However, most cultivators also know their own limitations and set their sights on the sons and daughters of the Lu family.
Because in recent years, Lu Xianzhi, Lu Xing, Lu Yun, Lu Feng and other Lu family members have married and taken concubines, and some independent cultivators from surrounding families have also heard about it.
As long as you marry into the Lu family of Bihu Mountain and marry the sons and daughters of the Lu family, you will enjoy the welfare treatment of the Lu family members!
And the Lord of Bihu Mountain strongly encourages childbirth!
As long as you give birth to a child, there will be a reward!
If the child is detected to have spiritual roots, there will be an additional reward!
These welfare treatments are very tempting for many independent cultivators and small families.
After all, Bihu Mountain currently has a good reputation.
Its ancestor Lu Changsheng is loyal and righteous, in his prime, with amazing combat power. As long as there is no accident, the family will be worry-free for a hundred years.
Moreover, marrying into Bihu Mountain not only allows one to enjoy high welfare benefits and be trained, but also allows one's family to obtain some invisible benefits.
For example, the Xu family married their daughter to Lu Xianzhi in the early years.
Now, some small families are relatively polite to the Xu family for the sake of Bihu Mountain. If they want to move the Xu family, they have to weigh it a little.
And not long ago, the Xu family also obtained some business cooperation from Bihu Mountain through this relationship.
Although it is just a small business of puppet distribution, it is also extremely enviable.
However, in addition to female casual cultivators who marry their daughters, there are also some male casual cultivators and children of small families who want to marry Lu's daughters and marry into the Lu family.
For these, Lu Changsheng knows all of them and knows that most of them are profitable.
"How can you get true love by tempting people with benefits."
"However, once they enter my Lu family, they will have no say in it."
Lu Changsheng chuckled as he listened to Lu Miaoyun's report.
At the beginning, he set up the family rules and regulations. Female cultivators who married into his family enjoyed the welfare of Lu family children; male cultivators who married into the Lu family also enjoyed the welfare of Lu family children. He knew that there would be cultivators who came to his family for benefits.
For this, Lu Changsheng's attitude was very simple.
As long as you are honest and can make enough contributions, you will not be less.
If you marry into his family and have other ideas, thinking of taking advantage of the wool, he will naturally not be polite.
During this time, Lu Changsheng himself was not idle, and made two concubines in his family pregnant.
It is worth mentioning that during this period, two female cultivators volunteered to become his concubines.
One of them was at the ninth level of Qi Refining and had a fifth-grade spiritual root. She said that as long as Lu Changsheng was willing to fund the foundation-building resources, she was willing to be Lu Changsheng's concubine for twenty years and give birth to three heirs.
For this, Lu Changsheng directly asked her to get out.
Although this female cultivator had a fifth-grade spiritual root.
But with this spiritual root cultivation, the price of going to Baiyu Tower would be at most 10,000 or 20,000. I really don’t know how the other party dared to offer a price. It’s a famous instrument, right?
On the contrary, another female cultivator named ‘Luan Qing’ is quite good.
She is at the sixth level of Qi Refining, has a sixth-grade spiritual root, and is also proficient in the craft of ‘making incense’.
This woman is much simpler. She has been wandering in the world of immortal cultivation for a long time. Knowing that her future is hopeless, she wants to get married and live a peaceful life.
I heard that the ancestor Lu of Bihu Mountain is handsome and treats his wives and concubines very well, so I came here because of his reputation.
So after a brief investigation, Lu Changsheng took this female cultivator as a concubine.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng realized that this was a good way to take a concubine, so he directly gave her a high-level breakthrough pill, allowing her to break through the late stage of Qi Refining.
After giving birth to two children in the future, I will help her open a spice shop.
On this day, a system prompt sounded.
[Congratulations to the host's offspring for giving birth to 50 offspring, and get a chance to draw a lottery]
"Fifty, the share money is finally here, but I have been waiting for so long!"
Lu Changsheng heard this system prompt sound, and his face showed some joy.
Since he saw the system give money to the first and tenth grandsons, but he never saw the system give money afterwards, he felt a little disappointed.
But fortunately, the system's money finally arrived.
Knowing that the number of children born by children is much higher than his own.
"But this speed is also quite fast. I worked hard at the beginning, and it took more than seven years to give birth to fifty children."
"But now the children only took four years."
Lu Changsheng sighed.
Moreover, it took more than four years, and there were not many children of marriageable age who got married early.
Now as time goes by, the children in the family are getting older, and more and more of them are starting families, and this snowball will grow faster and faster.
However, although there are many children, their spiritual roots are somewhat unsatisfactory.
Among the entire grandchildren, only two children have spiritual roots so far.
One of them was born not long ago by his son Lu Yun's concubine.
So in this regard, Lu Changsheng knew that he could only rely on these children with spiritual roots in the family.
But not many of these children are married yet.
Like his son Lu Ping'an, Lu Quanzhen, and his daughter Lu Ruyi, Lu Xiaoru, they have no intention of getting married for the time being.
Although his children would definitely agree if his old father was willing to urge them, he would not force his children to get married and have children just to get rewards.
"System, draw!"
Lu Changsheng came to the study and said silently in his heart.
Suddenly, the system lottery disk appeared.
It began to rotate with a golden light.
After a while, the golden light stopped in the "other" column.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the magic seed: Jianchong Niudou! ]
[The reward has been distributed to the system space, and the host can check it at any time]
A sword pattern with a light golden halo appeared with the system prompt sound.
"Law Seed, Sword Rush Bull Fight? What is this?"
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he saw the reward he drew this time.
In all these years in the world of immortal cultivation, he has never heard of such a thing as a law seed.
Immediately, his mind moved slightly and he looked at the law seed of the system.
[Law Seed: Sword Rush Bull Fight]
[Grade: Fourth Grade]
[Description: The light of the sun and the moon shines, and the sword rushes to the bullfight. The recipient's sword talent is improved, the sword is sharp, the qi swallows the stars, fearless, and proud.]
"Fourth grade!? Improve sword talent, sword is sharp, and the qi swallows the stars? This law seed can improve a person's talent?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the law seed in front of him and was surprised.
He knew that in the world of immortal cultivation, things that can improve and improve the talents of others are extremely rare.
This seed of magic in front of him can improve the talent of swordsmanship. It is of the fourth grade and is obviously extraordinary.
Lu Changsheng's mind moved slightly, and he extracted this seed of magic from the system space to check its detailed effect.
Immediately, a light ball of light the size of a thumb appeared in front of him.
Lu Changsheng instantly understood the specific effect of this seed of magic.
This seed of magic has the effects of improving talent, growing six senses, changing mind, improving appearance, and filling deficiencies.
After using it, not only the talent of swordsmanship will be improved, but also the future practice and comprehension of swordsmanship will be twice the result with half the effort.
The whole person will also be subtly influenced by the seed of magic, and his character and mind will gradually become proud, fearless, and brave.
If the character is like this, and it fits with the seed of magic, the effect of the seed of magic can be maximized!
From then on, he will make rapid progress in the way of swordsmanship, and the magic power and sword energy he cultivates will be several times sharper than that of ordinary people!
"How come this seed is similar to the 'sword bone' in the physique of a sword cultivator?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the effect of the seed and couldn't help but think of the 'sword bone' in the physique of a sword cultivator.
He had seen relevant descriptions in books. People born with sword bones would show extraordinary sword talents from the moment they held the sword.
Practicing the sword art not only makes rapid progress, but also far surpasses others in power.
As for the mind, Lu Changsheng could only say that most sword cultivators who practiced the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Sutra were like this.
Because only with this kind of mind can one go faster and farther on the sword path.
"Who should I give this seed to?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the seed in his hand and touched his chin.
Although he practiced the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Sutra, he was not very interested in this seed.
One reason was that he had a system initiation, and his understanding of the Seven Stars Great Freedom Sword Sutra did not require this sword talent.
The other reason was that this seed would subtly influence the mind of others.
He knew his own personality very well and had no intention of changing it.
So, in his opinion, this seed of magic must be used for his children.
After all, if the mind and nature are compatible, the effect of this seed of magic is still very good, equivalent to a small spiritual body.
"Ping An, Xian Zhi, Ru Yi, Quan Zhen, Yun Er, Lu Xing"
When Lu Changsheng thought of his current children, he felt that none of them were suitable.
The next moment, he immediately thought of his son Lu Qingshan who was far away in another country!
This son has a Gengjin body, and he was the candidate he wanted to teach the Seven Lights Great Freedom Sword Sutra.
It was just because of an accident that he was accepted as a disciple by the Jindan Zhenren and taken to the Jinyang Sect of Yue State.
Although this son was naughty and mischievous on weekdays, Lu Changsheng knew that this son was very arrogant and stubborn, and had a spirit of not admitting defeat in his bones.
Overall, it was suitable for this seed of magic.
"I don't know what kind of skills Qingshan practiced in the Jinyang Sect."
Lu Changsheng played with the seed of magic and murmured in his heart.
Although his son's spiritual roots are biased towards gold and he has a Gengjin body, which is suitable for practicing sword techniques.
But now he has gone to Jinyang Sect, he doesn't know what kind of exercises the other party's Jindan master teaches.
He only knows that his son's progress in cultivation is indeed very fast.
He has already broken through the fourth level of Qi Refining!
According to this progress, Lu Qingshan will definitely be able to break through the foundation before he is thirty years old!
"Wait until Zixiao's injuries are fully recovered and the Shenmu formation is set up, then go to Jinyang Sect."
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and murmured in his heart.
He had already promised Lu Miaohuan and Lu Miaoge to go to the Jinyang Sect of Yue Kingdom to visit his children.
If his son Lu Qingshan practices sword skills and his character remains the same, in his opinion, this method is perfect for Lu Qingshan.
Jinyang Sect, Tianyuan Peak.
"Qingshan, why are you arguing with others?"
In the main hall, a beautiful woman in her thirties, with a voluptuous figure and a bright red dress said lazily.
"That bitch dared to bully Xiao Zhu'er, so long as I didn't kill him!"
Lu Qingshan was wearing a gold and white robe, clenched his fists in his sleeves, and said coldly.
"You are only at the fourth level of Qi refining, and the opponent has the sixth level of Qi refining. How can you kill him?"
Master Tianyuan looked at his disciple, put the wine gourd to his lips, took a sip, and said casually.
"Because he doesn't dare to kill me!"
Lu Qingshan looked at the tall and straight Master Tianyuan in front of him and said calmly.
"Oh, aren't you afraid of causing trouble by killing him?"
"It is a grave sin for fellow sects to kill each other within a sect."
Yan Yuan put her elbows on the armrest to support her head, her black hair was loose, and her two plump legs without shoes and socks overlapped, and she said with interest.
"I'm afraid, but the other party dares to bully my sister. As a brother, I naturally want to avenge my sister!"
Lu Qingshan released his clenched fists, and then said with a smile: "Jin Yunfeng and our Tianyuan Peak have nothing to do with each other. They deliberately provoke this matter. Master, how can you sit idly by and ignore it?"
"Besides, I can kill the sixth level of Qi Refining at the fourth level. This is also for our Tianyuan Peak and for your face, Master. Will you still punish me, Master?"
Lu Qingshan said this.
"You really have such a temper"
When Yan Yuan heard this, he smiled, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I will handle this matter."
"There are many wild beasts on Yuan Peak today. If you are hungry on weekdays, you can hunt on the mountain to practice your skills."
"You are really hungry and there is no prey. You can also ask Xiaobai for help."
Yan Yuan said this.
"Yes, Master."
Lu Qingshan answered with cupped hands.
"Okay, go ahead, otherwise Xiao Zhu'er will worry about you again and think I blame you."
Yan Yuan shook her head slightly, picked up the wine gourd and took a sip.
Seeing Lu Qingshan walking out of the hall, her beautiful and lazy face showed a bit of coldness and said: "I, Yan Yuan, have been absent from the sect for a long time and ignored the affairs. You really think that I, Tian Yuan Peak, are weak and cannot be bullied!"
"elder brother!"
As soon as Lu Qingshan walked out of the hall, Lu Qingzhu stepped forward and shouted with concern.
"Xiao Zhu'er, Master is just asking what's going on, don't worry."
Lu Qingshan looked at his sister, a carefree smile appeared on his face, he rubbed her head and said.
"Brother, don't fight with others next time. Does it hurt?"
Lu Qingzhu looked at Lu Qingshan's somewhat swollen cheeks and his eyes were red, and said softly.
"Why does this hurt? This time, my brother was a little bit worse and failed to kill him. Next time I encounter this situation, I will definitely kill that piece of shit!"
Lu Qingshan said with a smile on his face.
"I'm useless. I can't help my brother at all, and I'm dragging him down."
Lu Qingzhu's eyes turned red.
"How could it be? It's natural for a brother to protect his sister. If you encounter something like this in the future, tell your brother as soon as possible and don't keep it to yourself. Do you understand?"
Lu Qingshan smiled slightly and gently scratched Lu Qingzhu's delicate little nose.
After accompanying Lu Qingzhu for a while, he let the little girl go to rest. Lu Qingshan ran up the back hill and shouted to the sky: "Crane Fairy, Crane Fairy!"
"Boy, what's the matter with you?"
After a while, a tall and handsome crane with a head as bright as fire flew down from the sky.
"Look, the fight today hurts me to death. Give me some fairy saliva."
Lu Qingshan pointed at the injuries on his cheek and arm and said aloud.
"Go, go, go, you want to trick me into being a fairy again, no, no, no."
When the crane heard this, he spread his wings and left.
But just after taking off, looking at Lu Qingshan's appearance, he still dropped a small porcelain bottle and said: "Forget it, I'll give you a bottle, kid."
"Hey, thank you very much!"
Lu Qingshan caught the small porcelain vase and thanked Bai He loudly.
More than half a month later.
Bihu Mountain.
Lu family mansion, meeting hall.
Today is another annual family meeting of the Lu family.
Lu Changsheng sat at the main seat, listening to the reports from his wife and children below.
This year, Bihushan is still at a loss as a whole.
However, as the children in the family became more proficient in the business and the number of spiritual farmers, spiritual planters, fishermen, and beast masters increased, the income from spiritual fields and fisheries increased steadily.
The Puppet Workshop and Brewing Workshop also gradually began to make a profit, and the overall loss was not large, with a total loss of 6,892 spirit stones.
The reason why we still lost more than 6,000 spirit stones was entirely because the children of the family spent a lot of money.
One is that the welfare of the children of the Lu family is relatively high.
In addition, the children in the family are gradually getting married.
Like my son Lu Yun, he is already married to one and three people.
Other sons who are willing to start a family can basically marry a female cultivator with spiritual roots.
In this case, the expenses of the entire family will increase a lot.
Lu Changsheng didn't have any objections to this expense.
After all, as long as the child is willing to marry and have children, he will be happy even if there are more.
After briefly summarizing the situation of the year, Lu Changsheng saw that the family was making steady progress, and felt that in two years, he could choose a few of these children to be the head of the family and become elders.
This way you don't have to worry about these trivial matters at all.
After the family meeting, Xiao Xiyue was ready to return to Qingyun Sect to report.
She was assigned to come to Bihu Mountain to stay for three years. Now that the three-year deadline has expired, she must return to Qingyun Sect.
Seven days later, Xiao Xiyue said goodbye to her daughter Lu Wangshu.
She said that she had something to do and would come to see her when she had time.
"Mother."
When Lu Wangshu heard that her mother was leaving, her eyes suddenly turned red and she cried.
She and Xiao Xiyue were not very close at first.
But in the past three years, Xiao Xiyue spent most of her time with her daughter, except for her daily meditation time. She doted on her and obeyed her in everything.
So Lu Wangshu was very sad and reluctant to let her mother go when she heard that her mother was leaving.
"Don't cry, little Wangshu. Mother will come to see you when she is free."
Seeing her daughter like this, Xiao Xiyue's heart was suddenly a little flustered, and her beautiful face was full of helplessness, and she comforted her.
"If Xiao Wangshu misses her mother, she can always go to see her."
Lu Changsheng looked at this scene, squatted down, and comforted his daughter in a gentle voice.
He had long realized why many immortal cultivators were unwilling to get married and have children.
It was okay for the Qi Refining Stage.
When an immortal cultivator reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, he could go into seclusion for a few months, a year or two.
If he reached the Core Formation Stage, this time could even be several years, or even decades.
This also led to no time to accompany his children.
It is possible that during a seclusion, the children would grow up, and the relationship between the two sides would become indifferent.
Even because of the lack of time to discipline, they would develop bad personalities and cause trouble.
Like Xiao Xiyue, spending a long time with her daughter would delay her cultivation.
As for himself, his cultivation was even more casual, relying entirely on drugs and cheating.
"Mom, I will miss you."
Lu Wangshu was smart and sensible since childhood. He wiped his eyes and said softly.
"Mother will miss Xiao Wangshu too."
Xiao Xiyue pursed her lips and said, even thinking of continuing to accompany her daughter in Bihu Mountain.
"Alas."
Looking at this scene, Lu Changsheng wanted to let Xiao Xiyue take Lu Wangshu to Qingyun Sect.
But with Xiao Xiyue's personality, if she took the child there, she would spoil him every day, which would seriously delay her cultivation.
And Xiao Xiyue returned to the sect, and there would be other things to do in the sect, so she didn't have so much time to take care of the child.
Finally, after the mother and daughter said goodbye reluctantly, Xiao Xiyue left.
"It's okay, Daddy is here, let's go fishing with you."
Lu Changsheng looked at his daughter with red eyes and said gently.
Now that Xiao Xiyue has left, he, as a father, will naturally spend more time with his daughter to help her get out of the sadness as soon as possible.
"Daddy, I want to hear a story."
Lu Wangshu raised his little head and said so.
"Okay."
Lu Changsheng smiled and said, "Once upon a time, there was a mountain, and there was a temple on the mountain, and there was a..."
In a market.
"Senior Honglian, the materials for performing the magic skills have been gathered. Can I enter the Bihu Mountain quietly now?"
Xu Ruyin said to her mind.
"Bihu Mountain is just a second-level formation. With my seamless heavenly clothing magic, it is not difficult to sneak into it."
"Even if you want to take away the heavenly monster, there will still be certain risks. You should think it through."
The ethereal, clear, elegant and gentle voice sounded in Xu Ruyin's mind.
"Senior Honglian, I have thought it through."
"When I practiced the beast skills, I was already prepared!"
Xu Ruyin's face was exquisite and beautiful, and her eyes showed a firm look.
