Chapter 24 Reversal of the Situation
Mujia Medicine Garden.
The next day, Lu Changan moved into Ge Danshi's previous compound.
This compound was originally garrisoned by the medicine garden, because Ge Yi's previous detached identity was taken over.
Before he left, Mu Renlong searched Ge Yi's yard, but nothing of value was left behind.
Lu Changan moved in for the sake of privacy and a spacious space.
It is convenient for him to draw symbols and study alchemy.
and cultivating spiritual pets.
Under the basement of the yard, there is a small hidden tunnel that adults cannot pass through.
This is the exclusive channel for rock rats.
In the next two days, the Mu family's supplementary staff arrived one after another.
Except mortal farmers, handymen, etc.
There are only six monks.
After reading it, Lu Changan shook his head secretly, and described it in eight words:
Old, weak, sick and disabled, yin flourishes and yang declines.
There are four teenagers on the first and second floors of Qi Refining, three of whom are girls.
An old woman with four layers of Qi refining, dizzy eyes, near the end of her lifespan, responsible for taking care of medicinal herbs.
There is also a lame young man with a cane and dark skin.
Oh, the lame young man is Li Ergou.
Two months ago, Li Ergou broke his leg at the front line, and the family gave him half a year to recuperate.
It happened that the medicine garden was short of manpower, so he was transferred here to recuperate.
"Brother Lu is worthy of being a hero of the rivers and lakes. He even joined hands with the eldest lady to repel the inner ghost on the seventh level of Qi training!"
After the meeting, Li Ergou was amazed and asked about the situation that day.
Those little girls in the early stage of Qi refining have pure eyes showing admiration, and there is also a faint fire of gossip.
Join hands to repel?
Lu Changan nodded: "It mainly depends on the eldest lady, and I will be on the sidelines."
The publicity of the Mu family is exactly in line with Lu Changan's wishes.
As for the specific reason, he has some guesses.
One, it's not easy to tell the public about the details of Mu's daughter being in a coma.
This is easy for outsiders to imagine, which is not conducive to reputation.
Simply put, the two teamed up to repel Ge Yi in general terms.
Secondly, it can enhance the reputation of the daughter of the Mu family and make a contribution within the clan.
Because Mu Xiuyun has a higher level of cultivation and is the eldest lady, it is easy for outsiders to understand that she is the main force to defeat Ge Yi.
"By the way, Brother Lu, this is a letter from Zhao Siyao and Lin Yi."
Li Ergou handed over two letters.
In the past year, Lu Changan was stationed in the medicine garden, and the letters from outside were sent to the clan area.
The letters of the major forces mainly rely on domestic servants, messengers, and carrier pigeons.
The high-level officials of Xianmen have higher means of communication.
…
Lu Changan first read the two letters from Edward Lam.
The first letter, congratulations to Lu Changan for becoming a Tier 1 Talisman Master.
The letter mentioned the struggle between the Mu family and the Zheng family, implicitly expressing that they are not optimistic about the Mu family, so let Lu Changan pay attention.
The second letter was sent last month. Lin Yi said that he formed a faction in the secular world, called "Yinxian Pavilion".
This faction mainly serves the cultivators.
Using a small number of casual cultivators as the skeleton, absorb secular martial arts masters, collect various information, and search for immortal cultivation resources and treasures wandering in the secular world.
In the future, Yinxian Pavilion is considering doing casual cultivator business, running errands for sect disciples, and making connections.
"It's a good idea." Lu Changan thought about it.
In the letter, Lam Yi invited Lu Changan to join, promising the status of a deputy cabinet master.
If Lu Changan doesn't join, he doesn't force it either.
At the end of the letter, I begged Lu Changan to sell a batch of basic talismans and first-order low-grade talismans at a reasonable price, so as to facilitate the development of Yinxian Pavilion in the early stage.
Lu Changan naturally would not refuse.
Before, Lin Yi also helped him, such as inquiring about the news of Mu's family and helping to introduce casual repair fairs.
Lu Changan wrote back, promising to give Lin Yi 20 basic talismans and ten first-order low-grade talismans in the first batch, calculated according to the wholesale purchase price of the shops in Fangshi.
As for Yinxian Pavilion, Lu Changan did not agree to join.
No problem staying cooperative.
This will allow Lu Changan to have one more channel to understand the intelligence at the bottom of the world of cultivating immortals.
…
Opened Zhao Siyao's letter again.
In the letter, Zhao Siyao asked about Lu Changan's recent situation, and mentioned her general situation in the sect.
Zhao Siyao also knew that he had become a talisman teacher, so he expressed his relief in the letter.
"Seven levels of Qi training? Are you going to compete for the status of core disciple?"
Lu Changan captured a key piece of information.
The core disciples of Jinyun Valley must be under forty years old, and there are only thirty places.
Most of them are strong players at the eighth or ninth level of Qi refining.
Zhao Siyao is going to try to make an impact after the eighth level of Qi Refining.
In Jinyun Valley, the biggest advantage of the core disciples is that they get the Foundation Establishment Pill first than ordinary disciples.
Lu Changan is not very optimistic about Zhao Siyao.
First, Zhao Siyao's aptitude is not outstanding compared to core disciples.
The core disciples are basically middle-grade spiritual roots and above, and a few top-grade spiritual roots.
Secondly, Zhao Siyao's family background has no advantages. Although there are immortal cultivators in his ancestors, they are not from the immortal cultivating family.
It's not even as good as the fact that the parents are disciples of casual cultivators.
In the world of cultivating immortals, the phenomenon of "fighting fathers" is very serious.
Without the help of elder cultivators, resources would be far behind.
However, if such a beautiful female disciple does not get close to a disciple with a background, or if she is unspoken by her seniors, she will sometimes cause trouble instead.
…
Reply letter to Zhao Siyao.
Lu Changan brought three medium-grade talismans, including one high-quality talisman.
These three talismans are more than enough to repay the ten spirit stones borrowed back then.
Using the talisman to pay off the debt, and showing his value to Zhao Siyao in the exchange of favors.
Only experienced first-level talisman masters can refine high-quality first-level middle-grade talismans, and the chances are very low.
"With Zhao Siyao's intelligence, I said in advance about competing for the core disciples, maybe I hope I can help in the future."
This letter may be a foreshadowing.
Do you want to help Zhao Siyao?
Lu Changan believes that it is possible to invest appropriately.
Because this is a low-risk, high-return investment.
At this stage, Zhao Siyao has not yet grown up, and it is time to send charcoal in the snow.
Once she becomes a core disciple, the hope of being promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage is much greater than that of ordinary monks.
Suppose, Lu Changan borrowed 100 spirit stones, and Ergou and Lin Yi each borrowed 50 spirit stones.
There are a total of two hundred spirit stones, which is not a small amount for the late stage of Qi refining, and is close to the value of a middle-grade magic weapon.
Once Zhao Siyao succeeds in establishing the foundation in the future, what is this spirit stone?
Congratulations in advance.
At that time, the three of Lu Chang'an will have a backer during the foundation building period, and if they want to build a foundation in the future, they will also have a master to take care of them.
Even if Zhao Siyao failed to build the foundation.
The loss of this bit of Lingshi is not painful at Lu Changan's current value.
Moreover, as long as the foundation building does not fail and die, the borrowed spirit stones... must be returned.
…
After the medicine garden is fully staffed.
Lu Changan instructed those little girls from the Mu family how to patrol and guard, and how to use formations.
In the early days of Qi refining, I just left the identity of Xianmiao, so I don't understand many things.
Lu Changan often has to teach him by hand.
Fortunately, Lu Changan has practiced health cultivation skills in this life, and his mentality is relatively good, and he has not lost his temper.
"Have you heard? The head of the family has returned, and the marriage talk with the 'Maple Leaf Huang's' family has collapsed!"
"The conversation is broken? What's the situation."
During the break, the three little girls from the Mu family were chatting and gossiping.
"Originally, our Mu family wanted to marry the eldest lady to Huang Yu, the young master of the Huang family, to facilitate cooperation between the two. However, the Huang family was so angry that they refused to give the eldest lady the status of "lawful wife". wife."
"That's unreasonable! Miss is so good, she's still a talisman master... The Huang family is totally dishonest."
"Hey, the Huang family has three foundations in one family, and their young master is a high-grade spiritual root, so he really has the capital to be arrogant."
…
Lu Changan's senses are keen, and he has heard a few gossips from the little girl.
He came from a family of cultivators in his previous life, so he understood what the Huang family did.
Even vaguely guessed the plan of the Huang family...
But there is no way, the Maple Leaf Huang family is much stronger, and now it is a dangerous and weak period for the Mu family.
The identities of the two parties are completely unequal.
The surrounding Xiuxian family watched the battle between the Mu family and the Zheng family with cold eyes.
The balance of victory is leaning towards the Zheng family.
…
However, ten days later.
An amazing news came.
Zheng Yuanhua, the elder of the Zheng family, passed away in a strange way!
Zheng Yuanhua, the ninth level of Qi Refining, is one of the best in the Qi Refining Stage of the Zheng family.
The Mu family raised their hands in celebration, as if confirming the correctness of the news.
The Mu family also has internal support in the Zheng family, but their status is not high.
Clan elders like Zheng Yuanhua often have soul cards in the clan.
Once the body dies outside, the family will know immediately.
Lu Changan suspects that this news has a certain delay.
"How did Zheng Yuanhua die? I heard that even the body was not found?"
Lu Changan was puzzled.
The beast card and flying boat in his storage bag are all made by this person, so he pays more attention.
Based on Lu Changan's experience, it would be difficult to kill Zheng Yuanhua at the ninth level of Qi Refining without two or three members of the same rank joining forces, or building a foundation.
Defeat and kill, these are two concepts.
One death, the situation is reversed!
The Mu family became tougher in the frontline mining area.
Although the young and strong monks of the Mu family are no match for the Zheng family.
But now, the Mu family has a clear advantage in the high-end combat power of the elders.
Zheng Yuanhua's status is equivalent to that of Mu Renlong of the Mu family, as one can imagine.
Not long after, news came from the front line.
The ancestors of the Zheng family and the ancestors of the Mu family resumed negotiations and reached an agreement.
Both sides cease fighting.
The Zheng family made a concession, willing to jointly supervise and equally share the associated mine "Purple Heart Copper".
…
On this day, Lu Changan stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the "Moon Heart Island" in the center of Feiyue Lake.
"came back."
He sensed the return of the ancestor of the Mu family from afar.
This validates the news from the front.
The dispute between the two immortal cultivating families seems to be coming to an end.
