Chapter 17 Garrison of the Medicine Garden
Who would have thought that Li Ergou, who was in high spirits a few days ago, would be filled with joy and sorrow today.
Lu Changan lamented the impermanence of the world.
When people are in the scenery, don't drift away.
Lu Changan said: "You don't have to be so pessimistic."
"Brother Lu, I know my level of fighting skills. If I go to the frontline mining area, life and death are unpredictable."
Li Ergou had a bitter look on his face.
He was not sure that he would come back alive, so he asked the most trusted Lu Changan to entrust his will.
"Actually, you have an advantage."
"What advantages?" Li Ergou was taken aback.
"You are very self-aware, you know how much you weigh."
Li Ergou is a man who has no courage, he is weak in fighting skills, and has no actual combat.
"Brother Lu, what time is it, are you still burying me?"
"This is not necessarily a bad thing for your life."
"The monks are afraid of being too confident, thinking that they are superior to their peers, and don't take ordinary monks seriously. I don't know how many talented monks, if they take it lightly, they capsize in the gutter."
Lu Changan said with emotion, took out two talismans from the storage bag, and handed them to Li Ergou.
"This is the Healing Talisman and the Wind Speed Talisman. Big brother can only help you so far."
After all, we met once, for eight years.
Maybe, this is the last time I see Li Ergou.
Lu Changan would not be too stingy, the two talismans he gave were both high-quality products of the same level.
Now, he is considered a senior first-rank talisman master in the Mu family, and occasionally refines middle-grade talisman.
"Thank you, brother."
After Li Ergou took the talisman, he looked at Lu Changan eagerly.
"Okay, I promise you."
Lu Changan sighed, "If it really comes to that point, elder brother will take care of your wife and daughter as much as he can."
Li Ergou laughed out of his sorrow, and a heavy stone fell from his heart.
Before leaving, he couldn't help but ask:
"Brother Lu, shouldn't I change my name?"
Before the name change.
Li Ergou went smoothly, without knowing how moist it was.
As a result, after changing his name to "Li Changqing", he stepped into the abyss with one foot.
"Fate, luck, mysterious and mysterious, who can tell?"
Lu Changan shook his head, unable to answer.
After all, his previous life was only a period of alchemy, and he could not be called a great power.
In the world of cultivating immortals, there are too many things that he cannot understand.
…
The next day, Li Ergou left Feiyue Mountain Villa and followed the family's young and strong monks to the copper mining area.
Lu Changan watched his back.
I pondered for a long time.
Looking at the center of Feiyue Lake again, the outline of "Yuexin Island" can be vaguely seen.
There is the dojo where the founder of the Mu Family established his foundation.
Lu Changan's soul is extraordinary, and it can also bless the soul brand lit up in the first life in the [Nine Seals Monument], and raise his spiritual consciousness to a higher level.
He felt that the ancestor of the Mu family was still there, but his breath was getting weaker and weaker.
When he was in Jinyun Valley, Lin Yi inquired about the gossip, saying that the ancestor of the Mu family would not live for ten years.
According to Lu Changan's remote sensing, it is not bad, there are about three to five years left.
This judgment is not entirely based on the perception of the soul, but also the keen capture of the years and the breath of longevity in "Ancient Wood Evergreen Art".
Lu Changan's bottom line is that as long as the foundation-building patriarch can hold on, he will stay on the sidelines and not rush to run away.
"However, three to five years later. If the Mu family does not have a new foundation-building period, they will definitely not be able to protect the second-order spiritual veins. By then..."
Lu Changan retracted his gaze, and silently planned several plans in his heart.
…
Two months later.
There was no news of Li Ergou from the frontline mining area.
Because the mining area is far away, as a foreigner, Lu Changan's news is relatively closed.
However, from time to time, the wounded came back, and the younger monks of the Mu family went to the front.
The tense situation will eventually affect Lu Changan.
"To garrison the medicine garden?"
On this day, when Lu Changan handed over a batch of talismans, he received an arrangement from the top of the Mu family.
Lu Changan's cultivation base is not in the middle stage of Qi refining. As a talisman master, the family will not let him go to the front unless it is absolutely necessary.
But apart from the front line of the mining area, the Mu family still has some assets to protect.
Such as medicine gardens, spiritual fields, water resources, etc.
Mu's family has a medicine garden in the valley two hundred miles away from Feiyue Villa.
Because it is close to the family residence, it is relatively safe to be stationed in the medicine garden.
"The medicine garden is located in a spiritual land, and there is a spirit gathering array. You can also practice there, make talismans, and help the family guard the medicine garden by the way."
The family steward who took Lu Changan to the medicine garden explained in this way.
Lu Changan has no reason to refuse.
Li and Ergou both went to the front line, and it makes sense to do logistics in the medicine garden by himself.
Because the distance is not far.
Lu Changan flew directly to the medicine garden with the Wujin knife.
The valley where the medicine garden is located has a natural formation that gathers the essence of the sun and the moon, which is suitable for planting medicinal materials.
The entire medicine garden covers an area of several thousand acres, and is protected by a first-order formation.
In addition to the divided planting areas, there is a house in the medicine garden, built in front of the stream, similar to a small village.
Entering the medicine garden, everyone arranged a separate wooden house.
The conditions are definitely not as good as Feiyue Villa.
"Lu Changan."
Hearing someone calling him, Lu Changan looked sideways.
It was a young man with a broken arm who had a familiar face, with many bandages on his body.
"Mu Yunfei?"
Lu Changan recalled briefly, and recognized the identity from the handsome face of the young man with the broken arm.
Eight years ago, Mu Yunfei escorted their group of fairy seedlings home, and distributed spirit stones to them on the way.
The two of them had fought side by side.
Back then, Lu Changan used his first level of Qi training to kill a monk of the Zheng family who was at the third level of Qi training, and was praised by Mu Yunfei.
"Brother Yunfei, is your arm in the frontline mining area..."
Lu Changan was slightly surprised.
"Well, my injury needs to be recuperated for a year, and the owner asked me to take care of the medicine garden. After all, this is an important place for the family, and the elders who were guarding it before went to the front line."
Mu Yunfei's voice was deep and slightly hoarse.
is no longer the family rookie eight years ago.
Mu Yunfei is two years older than Lu Changan, with a peak Qi training level six, he is considered young and strong in the clan.
Lu Changan thought to himself: "Even the wounded are on duty with illness. It seems that the Mu family is really short of manpower."
…
After a few days, Lu Changan got used to life in the medicine garden.
The aura of the medicine garden is not as good as Feiyue Villa.
However, the rich vegetation essence here is a blessing for Lu Changan's "Ancient Wood Evergreen Kungfu" in his cultivation of the wood system.
Therefore, his cultivation speed is no less than that of Feiyue Villa on the first-order spiritual vein.
In the past few days, Lu Changan and Mu Yunfei got to know each other well, and found out about the situation in the frontline mining area.
Deep in the copper mining area, the associated "purple heart copper" was indeed found.
Purple heart copper is not within the scope of the two clans' original agreement to share equally.
Moreover, the branch of Purple Heart Copper is very scattered, and the quantity is small, so it is easy to be hidden.
Nowadays, the monks of the two clans use their own means to mine purple heart copper, and sometimes fight.
"As the adjudicator of the year, the Royal Beast Zhou family didn't take action to stop it?"
Lu Changan asked Mu Yunfei curiously.
"The Beastmaster Zhou Family?"
Mu Yunfei snorted, "The Zhou family clearly favors the Zheng family! A pair of sisters from the Zheng family who have spiritual roots are married to the young master of one of the Zhou family."
The Zhou family of Yushou, as one of the seven great families, has a fake real person in the family, and there are nearly ten people in the foundation period.
The power is huge, and the branches and factions in the clan are also relatively complicated.
Fortunately, only one of them was recruited by the Zheng family, otherwise the Mu family could surrender directly.
The reason why Mu Yunfei said that the Zhou family was partial.
Because there are many young and strong monks in the Zheng family, the ancestors of the family still have 20 or 30 years to live and are in better condition.
The Zhou family does not uphold justice, and if it continues to be consumed for such a long time, the Zheng family will have a chance to nibble away and annex the Mu family's property.
"You don't have to worry, my Mu family is in contact with the 'Maple Leaf Huang family', and there is a possibility of marriage. The Huang family has three foundations and is powerful."
Seems to see Lu Changan's worry, Mu Yunfei revealed.
"Maple Ye Huang's family, married?"
Lu Changan was thoughtful.
It seems that both the Zheng family and the Mu family are wooing powerful allies.
…
"Be quicker! Pick off those mist orchids, Ge waits for alchemy."
On this day, Lu Changan was chatting with Mu Yunfei, when an impatient hoarse voice came from the Yaotian area not far away.
"who is he?"
Lu Changan glanced at an old man in ancient robes with puffy eyes in the distance.
He didn't notice before that there was actually a senior who practiced Qi at the seventh level in the medicine garden.
"He is the 'Ge Yi' alchemist, one of the family's four great guests. Because of the urgent shortage of pills recently, Ge Lao is always stationed here in the medicine garden, so it is convenient to obtain materials for alchemy."
Mu Yunfei showed respect and introduced.
Lu Changan suddenly realized that he was a senior alchemist. No wonder he had such a big temper, and shouted at several young people from the Mu family like commanding his grandson.
After Ge Danshi left.
Mu Yunfei lowered his voice and said: "Old Ge has a bad temper, you should be careful not to offend him. Old Ge has friendship with the patriarch, and the head of the family must show respect."
"Brother Xie Yunfei reminded you."
Lu Changan nodded.
He is assisting in guarding the medicine garden, practicing in a low-key manner, and doesn't have to deal with Elder Ge.
…
The medicine garden is in the rear, and has been peaceful and worry-free.
I practiced peacefully for half a year.
This day.
Sitting cross-legged in the room, Lu Changan, who had absorbed the aura of plants and trees, suddenly opened his black pupils.
"The peak of the third level of Qi training."
Because he is re-cultivating, there is basically no bottleneck in the Qi refining period.
It means that you can step into the mid-stage of gas refining at any time.
