Chapter 7: New Buds From an Old Tree
Everyone went back to the village, and Xu Feng returned home.
He came to the hall to report on his work, and his mother and father were waiting.
His mother, Li, was the daughter of the mountain barbarian leader Liming, and was also the legitimate mother of this family. Because Xu Feng was the only son, she loved him especially.
"Don't worry, Madam, Feng'er will be fine." Xu Guangting comforted.
"I don't care. If Feng'er gets hurt, I will fight you." Li was furious. She didn't let him stay in a good home, but insisted on doing that kind of experience.
At this time, Xu Feng came back with blood on his face.
Li quickly stood up, ran to her son's ear, looked him up and down, and said distressedly: "Son, what's wrong with you? Where is Amon?"
"Where is Amon?"
"Amon is dead, Dad! The people of the Wei family attacked me, and my eldest brother didn't save me!" Xu Feng complained and pushed all the responsibility to Xu Xuan and the Wei family.
"Wei Rong, old dog, it seems that he doesn't want to live anymore." Xu Guangting's eyes flashed with cold light, and then he asked, "What's the matter with Xu Xuan?"
"He watched someone die without helping..." Xu Feng exaggerated the story and said that his mistake was intentional by Xu Xuan.
"He knew there was someone in front, but he deliberately didn't say it, letting me be the bait in front, and A Meng died because of this."
Li was furious when he heard this, with high cheekbones, and her originally bad face looked even more mean.
"This bastard, Master, you must make the decision for my son!"
Xu Guangting frowned, and did not punish Xu Feng based on his one-sided words, but Xu Feng was injured and A Meng's death, someone still had to be responsible.
Thinking of this, Xu Guangting said: "No matter what, he is your brother, so don't invite him to the family banquet in the future, let him fend for himself outside. In the future, as the head of the family, you must also have the tolerance to tolerate others."
Xu Guangting hinted that he should give up Xu Xuan completely.
Li was still indignant, and Xu Feng pretended to be generous when he saw that his goal had been achieved.
After that, no one in the Xu family asked Xu Xuan to come back.
This was exactly what Xu Xuan wanted.
Three years later.
Behind the mountain of Lizhuang.
Roar!
The tiger came down the mountain and roared in the forest.
The roar resonated in people's chests, and hundreds of birds fluttered and hundreds of beasts fled.
The white-browed tiger with hanging eyes stared at the man in the forest.
The man was dressed in black hunting clothes, with a slender figure, holding an ox horn bow and carrying thirty steel arrows.
The tiger's eyes showed a ferocious look, and then it pounced on the man.
Xu Xuan reached behind his back and took out three arrows.
Whoosh!
Three arrows were fired in succession, and the steel arrows penetrated into the white tiger's body.
"Roar!"
The white tiger felt pain, but was not completely dead yet, and ran into the forest with its broken body.
Whoosh!
Arrows were fired in succession.
Within three breaths, the tiger's head, abdomen, back, and limbs were all hit.
Xu Xuan was like a human turret, constantly shooting steel arrows, some of which even shot into the stone.
Soon, after thirty arrows were shot, the tiger turned into a hedgehog.
"Conclude!"
Xu Xuan was quite satisfied.
Name: Xu Xuan
Lifespan: 22/85
Realm: Peak of martial arts.
Skills: None
Skills: Mountain-splitting knife skills (perfect), standing skills (perfect), eagle claw skills (perfect), Li's magic arrows (perfect).
In three years, all these skills were perfected.
Lifespan increased by about ten years.
Qi and blood reached the peak of the human body, with a force of eight hundred kilograms, and the realm of the peak of martial arts.
Now Xu Xuan is not afraid of dealing with an army of thirty people with cold weapons including bows and crossbows at close range.
If it is a long-range, and there are enough arrows, even if there are hundreds of people, he can slowly grind them to death.
"I am invincible in street fighting." Xu Xuan thought.
Finally, I have the power to protect myself in this world.
He put away his bow and arrow, picked up his long knife, and cut off the valuable parts of the tiger in front of him like a butcher cutting an ox.
Then he went down the mountain.
When he arrived at Lizhuang, the tenants on the road greeted Xu Xuan respectfully.
Since the last injury, Li Hu gradually stopped managing the affairs of the villa and the shop, and handed them over to the two brothers Xu Xuan and Xu Yong.
Inside the house, Xu Xuan played with the corpse-driving bell, and the bell with mottled copper rust seemed to contain a mystery.
The young boy Xu Yong at that time has also become a mature and steady teenager.
Xu Linger is still a foodie, eating cakes while listening to the conversation of the two brothers.
"At present, we have a total of 5,000 acres of land in Lizhuang, two medicine shops, two tailor shops, and two fur shops. The land is 5,000 acres. After deducting the tenants, workers, and guards, as well as the medicinal materials for you, brother, there is a surplus of 1,000 taels every year."
"Don't keep the money, spend it all, buy me a few more shops, and there must be a rice shop and a blacksmith shop."
Xu Xuan turned to the back and took out a small box.
Opening the box, there were ten golden bars inside.
"Five hundred taels of gold, take the shop at all costs!"
"This..." It was the first time that Xu Yong saw so much money, "I promise to do it!"
"Okay! You guys go out first."
"Yes!"
The gold was offered by the people in the Mirror World.
In the past few years, the Mirror World has offered many good things, mostly animal bones and meat, and some gold and silver treasures.
Xu Xuan did not respond to some of them, and would reward them with spells after accumulating to a certain extent.
He did not want the other party to think that he would respond to any request, but that he was moody and had to please him to get any benefit.
Now, except for the two corpse-driving spells of Chenzhou Fu, the other six spells were all rewarded, plus some books on economy, strategy, and business.
Now it depends on the results over there.
"It's a pity that I still can't find spiritual energy training materials..."
As long as the other party finds the training materials, Xu Xuan will definitely send the last two corpse-driving spells of Chenzhou Secret Method.
He took out the bronze mirror and observed the situation in another world.
The time flow rate is ten times faster than one, and thirty years have passed on the other side.
Qingshan Township, Yangjia Village
The Yang Village of that year is no longer there, replaced by the Qingshan Li Family.
The earthen house where the Li family lived in the past has become a mansion, surrounded by high walls, with a solemn isolation from the world.
Within a hundred miles, the Li family is the undisputed overlord, monopolizing all fur and herbal medicine businesses, and is the most important partner of Heihefang.
Inside the Li family, Li Qingshi's temples are covered with white frost, and the whole person has aged a lot.
Four young people stood in front of him, his four children: Li Rufeng, Li Ruhuo, Li Rulin, and Li Rushan.
Beside Li Qingshi is Li Qingquan.
Li Qingquan never married, devoted himself to Taoism, and he has also aged a lot.
The eldest son Li Rufeng said: "My son has found out that the backer of Heihefang is a casual cultivator of Qi training, probably in the early stage of Qi training. Only by taking over Heihefang and seizing the resources of Qi training cultivators can our family have a chance to grow."
"Second brother, one Qi training cultivator can beat ten Qi training cultivators. We are lucky to defend it. How can we take the initiative to attack? I think it's more important to run away." The third brother said.
"Nonsense, do you want us to start over?" the second brother retorted.
Li Rufeng's face was gloomy, analyzing the situation:
"Heihefang has oppressed us even more. We even lose money when doing business with them. If we continue like this, we will be bled to death sooner or later. We must kill them, seize resources, and beat out a Qigong cultivator!!"
Once a family has a Qigong master, they can move into the county and become a cultivator family.
The life span of a Qigong cultivator is three sixty years, that is, 180 years. At the current age of the second uncle, the family can enjoy wealth for about two sixty years.
If the descendants continue, there will be at least hundreds of years of prosperity and wealth.
Not to mention the magical... mirror.
"We must have a showdown. Heihefang is becoming less and less tolerant of us. We must resist, otherwise we will die and our family will be destroyed!" Although Li Qingshi is old, his spirit is still as sharp as before, "You go down and prepare, and the second uncle stays."
"Yes!"
The sons left.
Only two brothers were left in the house.
Thirty years of sharing weal and woe, the two brothers are of the same blood and have an unparalleled bond.
"I still feel a little unsafe, or brother, let's send that thing to the Mirror Fairy." Li Qingquan was a little worried.
"Second brother, this is the thing you use to break through, don't you want to break through?"
Li Qingquan shook his head and said:
"The risk of cultivating qi and practicing qi is too great, and we can't do it without exchanging some powerful spells. Our foundation is the Mirror Fairy, and the things we have offered in recent years are increasingly unable to satisfy the fairy.
The family's development has therefore stagnated, and it's time to come up with some good things. Rufeng has good qualifications, and even if I can't break through, it's great to let Rufeng break through."
"The family is a big tree with too many old branches. It's time to cut the old branches and let new buds grow."
