Chapter 169 If You Meet a Girl You Like, Bring Them All Back
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Lu Changsheng's life has been so boring and fulfilling in the past six months.
Practice every day, make talismans, make babies, and then practice double cultivation with Xiao Xiyue.
During the year he had nine more children, bringing the total to one hundred and thirty-eight.
And after such a long period of dual cultivation, Xiao Xiyue's Taoist foundation is almost restored.
In the cave, with a low roar and a moan, Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue ended their training.
The two hugged each other quietly, enjoying the aftereffects of the incident.
"Changsheng, if you come here two or three more times, the cracks in my foundation will be repaired."
Xiao Xiyue snuggled into Lu Changsheng's arms, her face flushed, and she said softly.
These two or three times naturally do not refer to dual cultivation alone, but to the repair of the Tao foundation by the two qi of yin and yang.
"Let me see."
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng held Xiao Xiyue's wrist and used his spiritual consciousness to check her Dao foundation.
The cracks and gaps on the platform are almost invisible.
"It seems to be really fast, Xiyue, didn't you say before that my Yin and Yang Qi can not only repair the Dao Foundation, but also resonate with your Dao Foundation and undergo transformation?"
"Can you feel now how long it will take to transform?"
Lu Changsheng asked aloud as he played with the plump gelatin and made a snowman in his hands.
"I feel that when my Daoji is completely repaired, there will be some kind of change in my Daoji."
Xiao Xiyue said this.
"Oh, there's such a good thing, congratulations to Xi Yue."
Lu Changsheng chuckled.
"Changsheng, aren't you worried that I will leave you after the Daoji is repaired?"
Xiao Xiyue looked at Lu Changsheng's casual look and pursed her pink lips.
"I said, I will respect all your choices."
Lu Changsheng said with sincerity in his eyes.
"Hmph, Xiyue doesn't believe it. Lu Lang must be telling the truth and thinking the same thing. He feels that I will never be able to escape from your grasp."
Xiao Xiyue snorted.
She is thoughtful and thoughtful, and after spending so much time with Lu Changsheng, she can see that Lu Changsheng is not someone who is willing to let go easily. He is extremely possessive and domineering at heart.
Saying this, I am just coaxing myself and not wanting to make myself uncomfortable.
"Of course, respect is respect, but how can I just let go of my love for Xiyue?"
Lu Changsheng smiled.
While the two were chatting warmly, a system prompt sounded in Lu Changsheng's mind.
[Congratulations to the host’s first heir for breaking through the innate martial arts and gaining the bloodline effect: the probability of reproducing heirs increases by 5%, and he gets a chance to draw a lottery! 】
As the system prompt sounded, a force of energy and blood poured into Lu Changsheng's body out of thin air.
The strength of this innate warrior has not been significantly improved for Lu Changsheng, who has reached the fourth level of the Hundred Refining Treasure Body Art.
The improvement is minimal.
However, compared to Lu Xianzhi, Lu Quanzhen's feedback when he completed introducing the Qi into his body was much stronger.
"Has Ping An achieved an innate breakthrough?"
Lu Changsheng was heartbroken.
I know that my son Lu Ping'an has achieved a breakthrough in martial arts.
When he returned to Ruyi County before, Lu Ping'an told him that in a few months, he would be able to break through the martial arts innateness.
Counting the time now, it’s almost time.
What Lu Changsheng didn't expect was that the child's breakthrough in martial arts talent would also be rewarded by the system's achievements.
When the child practiced martial arts before, there was no prompt from the system, and the strength on the panel was also displayed as 'none'.
He once thought that there were no system achievement rewards in this area.
Now that the system prompts sound, it is known that martial arts has been innate and the conditions for triggering achievement rewards have been met.
"It seems that among the system achievements, a warrior's breakthrough of innate talent is regarded as the entry level, which corresponds to the immortal cultivator's introduction of Qi into the body."
"Martial arts talent is very difficult for ordinary people, but for me, as long as you are willing to spend money and your children are willing to practice, you can basically achieve martial arts talent at the age of twenty."
"Sure enough, the system's achievement rewards mean that you can't just have a baby by yourself, you have to train the baby."
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
He let his children practice martial arts, although he had the idea of adding martial arts strength to himself.
But with the improvement of his own strength, his thoughts in this regard have faded a lot.
Cultivating children to practice martial arts is more about letting them practice martial arts to strengthen their bodies.
When encountering danger in the world, you still have the strength to protect yourself.
"Before, the probability of having spiritual roots of heirs was increased, but now the probability of reproducing heirs is increased."
"Every time a cultivator breaks through the realm of cultivation, it becomes more difficult to reproduce."
"I don't know how effective this five percent probability increase will be."
"And this increase in probability should only be a unilateral increase on my part."
"But as the strength of immortal cultivators increases, it becomes more difficult to reproduce, not only for male cultivators, but also for female cultivators."
Lu Changsheng looked at the system prompt that the probability of having children had increased by 5%, and thought secretly in his heart.
He knew that every time a cultivator breaks through a great realm, it will become more difficult to reproduce heirs.
But how difficult it would be, he couldn't tell.
The world of cultivating immortals has not recorded this information.
After all, everyone practices different techniques, has different Dao foundations, and their own circumstances are also different, so the final results may also be different.
Not many immortal cultivators would study this kind of thing.
"Changsheng, what's wrong?"
At this time, Xiao Xiyue saw Lu Changsheng slightly lost in thought and asked aloud.
"Nothing, I just thought of something."
When Lu Changsheng heard Xiao Xiyue's voice, he immediately came to his senses and chuckled.
When Xiao Xiyue heard this, she didn't ask any more questions.
The two continued chatting for a while, then fell asleep hugging each other.
The next day, Lu Changsheng left Xiao Xiyue Cave Mansion and came to his home's Ping'an Talisman Hall.
Although he doesn't come here often, he still has his own quiet room, the Talisman Room, on the third floor.
"System, lottery."
After arriving at the quiet room on the third floor, Lu Changsheng thought silently in his heart.
Immediately, the system lottery board appeared.
"Start the lottery."
Then, a golden light quickly rotated on the lottery board.
After a moment, the golden light slowly stopped on the 'other'.
【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Gu insect ‘Hope Gu’! 】
[The reward has been distributed to the system space, and the host can view it at any time]
A pattern about the size of a thumb, like a ball of light, emerged from the large turntable, accompanied by a system prompt.
"Gu insect, hope Gu?"
Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows when he saw this reward.
With Peach Blossom Gu in front of him, he subconsciously felt good about the Gu.
After all, among the more than twenty lottery items in the past, Peach Blossom Gu was considered a good reward.
It can not only improve your appearance and temperament, but also improve your luck.
It can also guard the sea of consciousness, without fear of the effects of other Gu insects, and resist attacks by divine consciousness.
"It's just that the name Hope Gu sounds weird."
Lu Changsheng murmured in his heart, unable to guess the effect of the Gu insect from this name.
Immediately his mind moved slightly and he looked towards the system space.
[Gu: Hope Gu]
[Quality: Tianling Gu]
[Explanation: The strange Gu naturally born between heaven and earth can allow mortals to awaken and give birth to spiritual roots. As long as there is hope in the heart, miracles will happen. 】
"Let mortals awaken and give birth to spiritual roots!"
When Lu Changsheng saw the description of 'Hope Gu', he couldn't help but feel shocked.
A long time ago, he had been reading books, looking for information about the cultivation of mortals and the birth of spiritual roots.
But there are no relevant records at all.
I know that it is simply impossible for mortals to practice cultivation.
As for the treasures that allow mortals to give birth to spiritual roots, they can only be accessed after at least forming a Nascent Soul.
Although he had thought that through the system, he might be able to draw treasures in this area, allowing mortals to practice and give birth to spiritual roots.
But Lu Changsheng did not have high expectations in return.
After all, with expectations, there will be disappointments.
Of course, Lu Changsheng cannot deny that he does not have such a deep obsession with this aspect.
"Hope Gu."
"Give me a glimmer of hope?"
Lu Changsheng looked at the Hope Gu in the system space, and remembered the time when he took Lu Pingan and others to detect the spiritual roots.
After testing that they had no spiritual roots, several children returned home with disappointed faces.
Then Lu Pingan raised his head and looked at himself expectantly.
Ask yourself if you don’t have spiritual roots, can’t you become an immortal cultivator?
"Is this hope Gu going to enlighten one person, or..."
Lu Changsheng's mind moved slightly and he extracted the hope Gu from the system.
Suddenly, the Hope Gu, which was as big as a thumb-sized ball of light, appeared in his hand.
Details about Hope Gu came to mind.
Like the Peach Blossom Gu, it can only be used by one person to enlighten the person and give birth to spiritual roots.
As for the quality of the spiritual roots that are born, it depends on each person's situation and will be strongly affected by physical conditions and hopes in the heart.
In addition to opening the mind and giving birth to spiritual roots, hope Gu has another effect.
That is, when people are faced with a desperate situation, as long as the hope in their hearts remains, the Gu can forcibly activate their potential.
"call!"
"This hope Gu, please give me peace."
Lu Changsheng looked at the Hope Gu in his hand and let out a breath.
In his heart, he planned to give this hope Gu to his eldest son, Lu Ping'an.
This is his first son.
It can be said that he was raised since he was a child, and a lot of affection has been poured into him.
Moreover, this son has always given him peace of mind and satisfaction since he was a child.
Now Lu Ping'an works hard to practice martial arts, breaks through the martial arts innateness, and wins the lottery. He just happens to draw the Hope Gu, which makes him feel that there is God's will in the dark.
"But hoping that Gu can enlighten mortals and give birth to spiritual roots is too shocking."
"If I activate the Hope Gu on Ping An now, I will probably cause trouble."
“And we don’t worry about scarcity but inequality.”
"There is only one hope Gu, and it can only give birth to spiritual roots for one person."
"Other children originally believed that they were born with spiritual roots and accepted the reality. Now when they see that Ping An has spiritual roots, they may become unbalanced and complain."
"So I hope Gu's matter must not be exposed."
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and let it out in a long breath.
He knew that many of his children had dreams of cultivating immortals.
In other words, someone who was born in Qingzhu Mountain, grew up in this environment, and was influenced by what he heard and saw, how could he not want to become an immortal cultivator.
It's just because spiritual roots are born. Without spiritual roots, one can only accept reality.
At this time, if you see yourself letting Lu Ping'an give birth to spiritual roots, it will be easy to feel unbalanced.
Even if the wives and concubines knew that they had such a thing, they would feel uncomfortable if they chose to give it to Lu Ping'an without saying anything.
"Ping'an has made a breakthrough now and is ready to travel. It's just a good time to sharpen his skills."
"We will see the situation at that time and decide whether to give him the hope Gu."
"As for the matter of Hope Gu, just don't let anyone know about it."
"After all, a bowl of water cannot be equal."
Lu Changsheng didn't think much about it.
He is no longer the person who was easily sentimental about these things.
He already had a plan in mind for Hope Gu's arrangements.
Prepare to wait for Lu Ping'an to go out and work hard before deciding whether to give him the hope Gu.
Moreover, what he was thinking was that if he used Hope Gu to enlighten Lu Pingan and give birth to spiritual roots, the eldest son would have to live outside with another identity from now on.
He can no longer appear in front of the world as Lu Pingan.
"It is a crime for an ordinary man to carry a jade without any guilt."
"I'm going to Ruyi County later."
Lu Changsheng took out a jade box, put away the hope Gu, and put it into the spiritual pet bag.
Lu Ping'an said at the beginning that he wanted to go out for training, and he would let him break through his innate skills first.
Now that he has broken through Xiantian, he naturally won't say much.
But his son is going out, and as an old father, of course he has some things to explain.
After speaking to Lu Miaoge and Xiao Xiyue, Lu Changsheng rode the Iron Feathered Eagle back to Qingzhu Mountain.
After settling some trivial matters in Qingzhu Mountain for half a month, Lu Changsheng took Bai Ling to Ruyi County.
Bai Ling's cultivation has now reached the third level of Qi refining.
It is estimated that it won't be long before he will break through the fourth level of Qi Refining.
This speed can be described as amazing.
Lu Changsheng estimated that his previous guess that Bai Ling had a high-grade spiritual root was underestimated.
According to Bai Ling's cultivation speed, he might be able to reach the stage of Qi refining in his twenties and prepare to build the foundation.
"Little Ling'er, won't it be boring to be in Qingzhu Mountain every day?"
The iron-feathered eagle spread its wings and flew, and Lu Changsheng asked Bai Ling.
"No, everyone here is very nice. Sister Yun, Sister Zhenzhen, Sister Zhiyue, they are all very kind to me."
"And Ruyi, Xiaoru, Qingshan, Xiaozhu'er and the others often play with me."
When Bai Ling heard this, he immediately said happily.
In her opinion, Qingzhu Mountain is simply a paradise on earth.
Not only do people here not dislike her or reject her, they also like her very much, care about her, and play with her.
Therefore, during more than a year in Qingzhu Mountain, Bai Ling's personality has become much more cheerful.
I am no longer as socially fearful as before, being nervous when meeting people, and looking timid and scared.
Of course, this cheerfulness is currently limited to Lu Changsheng's manor.
Facing Lu Changsheng's wives, concubines, maids and children.
When she walked out of the manor and faced other people in Qingzhu Mountain, her character became taciturn again.
But it's much better than before.
"That's good. If anything happens, you can tell your sister Yun directly."
"If it's inconvenient, just tell my brother directly."
Lu Changsheng looked at Bai Ling's happy face and smiled.
He rubbed the little girl's little head with two buns.
This has become a habit for him.
And Bai Ling also enjoyed having his little head rubbed so intimately.
Three days later, the two came to Ruyi County.
Walking on the bustling streets of Ruyi County, looking at the pedestrians coming and going, the little girl suddenly became a little nervous and held Lu Changsheng's hand tightly.
"Brother is here."
Regarding this situation, Lu Changsheng squeezed the other party's white and tender hands and smiled gently.
Seeing Lu Changsheng's handsome face, suave temperament, and gentle smile like a spring breeze, Bai Ling pursed her lips, and the tension in her heart dissipated a lot.
Only together with Lu Changsheng, she dared to walk on such a crowded street.
If she were alone, she would not go out at all, in such a crowded place.
"master."
"Miss."
The two came to Lu Mansion.
The housekeeper and guards in front of the mansion saluted immediately.
"Um."
Lu Changsheng nodded and led Bai Ling into the mansion.
"Dad, dad!"
"Husband, Ling'er!"
Back home, naturally there was a lot of excitement.
All the wives, concubines, and children came to see him.
The first children are much older now.
They won’t be as friendly as they were when they were little, throwing themselves into their arms and begging for a hug.
As for the younger group of children, since they get along less often, their relationship with their father, Lu Changsheng, is relatively less cordial.
Salute respectfully to this father.
After briefly caring and greetings with his wife, concubines, and children, the crowd had almost dispersed. Lu Changsheng looked at his son, Lu Ping'an, who had been standing beside him.
"Ping An, what are you doing standing around all this time? Do you have something to talk to dad about?"
Lu Changsheng chuckled.
He knew that his son wanted to talk to him about his innate breakthrough.
But there was always someone there, so they didn’t interrupt.
"Dad, I have achieved a breakthrough in innateness!"
Lu Ping'an immediately grinned.
"Breaking through the innate, yes, yes, he is indeed my son."
"I remember you won't turn sixteen in more than a month."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, he broke through the martial arts innateness before he was sixteen years old, and he is considered a genius in the world."
Lu Changsheng patted his son on the shoulder and said with a smile.
At the same time, he looked at his son in front of him.
Due to practicing martial arts since childhood, Lu Ping'an has a very strong figure.
But it doesn't look too strong, giving people a straight and powerful look.
He is almost 1.75 meters tall, only half a head shorter than him.
It is estimated that in another two years, I will catch up with him.
His face cannot be said to be handsome, only comely.
He only resembled his current father in outline.
This is entirely due to Lu Changsheng's practice of the Immortal Posture Technique and the improvement of his Peach Blossom Gu.
In addition, Lu Ping'an's appearance is delicate and somewhat tough.
Lu Changsheng, on the other hand, was handsome and as gentle as jade.
Father and son have completely different temperaments.
"Hehe, you are the one who trained me."
"If I hadn't eaten spiritual rice and spiritual food every day, how could my child have improved so quickly in martial arts?"
Lu Pingan scratched his head and grinned.
"Before you said you wanted to travel, dad asked you to break through your innate ability."
"Now that you have broken through Xiantian, dad will naturally not stop you. Do you have any plans in mind?"
Lu Changsheng and his son sat down beside him and asked aloud.
In fact, he was not very relieved about Lu Pingan's travel.
Because this son's temperament is generous and honest.
Under Lu Lanshu's education, although he became a little more tactful, he was still upright.
"I don't have any big plans. I plan to go to Grandpa Li's house first."
"Master Zhao, Master Mu, and Uncle Li, and Uncle Hong all said that the world is dangerous. Uncle Li said before that if I want to travel, I can first go to the Red Whale Gang to experience the dangers of the world, and then I can make a decision. Don’t travel far.”
Lu Pingan said honestly.
"It's a good thing that you have such an idea. It's better to go to the Red Whale Gang to see it first."
Lu Changsheng nodded when he heard this.
Because of the relationship between himself, Hong Yi, and Li Feiyu, the three families had a lot of contacts.
The Red Whale Gang of Li Feiyu's family also prospered under Hong Yi's care, and has been handling affairs for the Ruyihou Mansion.
It would be good for Lu Ping'an to go to the Red Whale Gang to gain experience. At least he could experience something.
Otherwise, he would not be at ease as a father if his son was allowed to run around like this.
"Dad, I need you to tell me about my mother's side."
Lu Pingan scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.
"Why, your mother heard that you were going on a trip, so she wouldn't let you go, right?"
When Lu Changsheng heard this, he immediately smiled.
His wife, Lu Lanshu, has a ladylike personality, so naturally she doesn't like her son to fight and kill her.
Especially since Lu Pingan was the eldest son, she had always hoped that Lu Pingan could study more and learn how to behave and run a family.
When the children were practicing martial arts, Lu Changsheng said that all children should practice to strengthen their bodies. Otherwise, she would not let Lu Ping'an indulge in martial arts.
"I mentioned it to my mother before, but she not only refused, but also said that I was not too young and asked me what I thought of sister Xueer."
"But I have always regarded sister Xueer as my own sister."
Lu Pingan said helplessly.
The sister Xue'er he mentioned was called Li Xue'er, and she was Li Feiyu's daughter.
He is two years younger than Lu Pingan, has a sweet and sensible temperament, and is also liked by Lu Lanshu.
So I also want this little girl to be my daughter-in-law.
"But your mother is right, you are indeed not young anymore."
When Lu Changsheng heard this, he touched his chin and said.
In this world, getting married at the age of sixteen is considered normal.
Although Li Xueer was still a little young, Lu Lanshu had made up her mind before mentioning this matter.
"father."
When Lu Ping'an heard this, he suddenly burst into tears.
"Okay, okay, your mother's side, I'll go talk to him later."
"But you are indeed old enough to consider it."
"Xue'er, forget it if you don't like her. After all, we grew up together."
"In the future, when I go out to travel around the world, if I meet a girl I like, I will bring them all back, you know?"
Lu Changsheng said with a smile.
Although children's children also have bonuses for themselves.
It is also very likely to trigger system achievement rewards.
But Lu Changsheng would not force his children to get married and have children.
If you want to give birth, that is naturally the best.
He was very supportive and heavily rewarded.
If he didn't want to give birth, he wouldn't force it and just let nature take its own course.
"Yes, Dad."
When Lu Ping'an saw that his father also said this, he suddenly looked helpless and discouraged.
"Don't look listless. Dad is not forcing you. He is just telling you not to miss the right one."
"Let's go, you and I will go talk to your mother."
Seeing his son's appearance, Lu Changsheng patted his head angrily.
Suddenly I understood how my parents felt when they urged me to get married.
Now that Lu Pingan is not getting married, he is not in a hurry or worried.
After all, he is still young.
He also has many children.
But if the children are older, just one or two children will indeed be a bit impatient.
Soon the two came to the backyard.
"Lanshu."
Lu Changsheng looked at his wife Lu Lanshu.
Lu Lanshu is the same age as him.
The two have been married for almost seventeen years now.
The other person's face is not like his, still twenty years old.
However, after taking the beauty elixir and the long-term nourishment of Lingmi Lingmeishan, my skin is white and beautiful, and my face is as delicate as a hibiscus. There are not many traces of time.
Her figure is also graceful and graceful, and she does not look like she has given birth to three children.
"Husband, be safe."
When Lu Lanshu saw her husband and son, she stepped forward.
Her temples were curled up, with a jade hairpin inserted sideways.
Wearing a light blue palace dress, she is dignified and elegant.
As Lu Changsheng's wife, she is now basically in charge of all matters in the Lu family, giving her a somewhat graceful and noble demeanor.
"Lanshu, I already know about Ping An."
"He is not young anymore. Since he wants to travel, let him go."
Lu Changsheng looked at his wife, stepped forward, held her hand, and said warmly.
He actually understands what his wife is thinking.
I hope Lu Pingan can inherit the secular family business.
When Lu Lanshu heard this, she immediately glared at her son, causing Lu Ping'an to lower his head immediately, not daring to look at his mother.
She bit her lip lightly and said, "Husband, I'm really worried about Ping An's temperament going out."
"There are people fighting and killing people outside."
She didn't want Lu Ping'an to go out, and she didn't want her son to get married soon and inherit the family business.
I also know that my son's personality is easy to suffer outside, so I don't feel at ease.
"Lanshu, I know what you are thinking. I hope Ping An can be safe. I also hope that Ping An can always be safe. This is also my idea of choosing this name for him."
"But the young eagle will one day fly to the sky and face the abyss and wind and waves alone. This is the only way to grow up."
"Although Ping An doesn't have to experience this, it would be a good thing if he is willing to experience it."
"In this way, I can hand over more things to him in the future."
Lu Changsheng smiled gently and said this to his wife.
After the couple chatted for a while, Lu Lanshu nodded in agreement.
Although she was extremely reluctant to give up.
But Lu Changsheng had already spoken, and she could no longer refuse.
After all, Lu Changsheng is the head of the family.
