Chapter 95 Voluntary Giving Up
Lu Changan's puppet beginners have not long since started learning.
That night, Mu Renlong and Li Erqing secretly visited the courtyard by the lake with the spirit stones they raised.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, this is the spirit stone for purchasing Foundation Establishment Pill."
Mu Renlong handed over a storage bag.
Lu Changan opened it and took a look. There were 20 middle-grade spirit stones in the bag, plus 3,000 low-grade spirit stones.
"This is Jidan, please check it both of you."
Lu Changan handed over the white jade porcelain vase to Mu Renlong.
Mu Renlong confirmed that it was correct, and bowed his hands:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the Mu Family of Feiyue Lake will keep in mind what happened today!"
The transaction was successfully completed.
The Mu family got the much-needed Foundation Establishment Pill, and Lu Changan made a fortune in a low-key way.
Doing this big business in Mu's house alone is theoretically risky.
Lu Changan dared to do this not only because of his understanding and trust in the Mu family, but also because of his strength.
He has self-confidence: Mu Family's two Foundation Establishment teamed up, neither of them is his opponent.
Mu Renlong should have some strength, and Li Erqing is relatively weak in the foundation building stage.
Not to mention the Mu family, it is the Huang family with four foundations, Lu Changan is not too afraid, self-protection is not a problem.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, we will discuss the right of ownership of this Foundation Establishment Pill as soon as possible. At that time, we will inform Fellow Daoist of the candidate."
Before leaving, Mu Renlong said solemnly.
…
Two days later.
Li Erqing flew back from Yuexin Island and told Lu Changan the winner of Jidan.
"Patriarch, Mu Chengji."
It was not a surprise that Lu Changan learned of the candidate.
Mu Chengji's aptitude is similar to Mu Xiuyun's, but ten years younger.
He is Mu Renlong's valued nephew. He has been in the family for so many years and has worked diligently and steadfastly.
He uses the Foundation Establishment Pill, which has a higher success rate than Mu Xiuyun.
"Brother, in fact, as a second-tier talisman teacher, the eldest lady has made great contributions to the family, and her qualifications are deeper than Mu Chengji. She has every chance to win this foundation-building pill."
Li Erqing said with a complicated expression.
"Ah, but Missy gave up the opportunity on her own initiative!"
"She gave up on her own initiative?"
Lu Changan sighed softly and remained silent for a long time.
He understood Mu Xiuyun's choice.
Aside from many factors.
Mu Xiuyun is first and foremost a family monk, prioritizing the interests of the family and the overall situation.
Followed by personal emotions and appeals.
For the benefit of the family, if the Maple Leaf Huang family had been sincere, she was ready to get married.
Twenty years ago, it was known that Lu Changan was going to leave.
Mu Xiuyun tried to persuade her to stay and let the other party marry, but she never mentioned leaving the family with Lu Changan, but she became more determined.
Compared to the kind of woman who elopes for her feelings regardless of the cost, Mu Xiuyun is more rational and mature.
This is what Lu Changan appreciates about her, and he doesn't have to worry about subsequent entanglements.
…
Three days later.
In the courtyard by the lake, a female visitor was welcomed.
As a foundation-building cultivator, Lu Changan, even if it is a temporary place, the ordinary cultivators of the Mu family are not allowed to approach at will.
"Senior Lu, the little girl Mu Bingyun, came to visit on behalf of the teacher."
A young girl in a green skirt stood in front of the courtyard, her voice was like a warbler's cry.
The young girl's skin is more radiant than snow, and she is as clear and graceful as jade; her skirt moves with the wind, as light as clouds coming out of Xiu.
"Come in."
The courtyard door opened, and a gentle male voice came.
Mu Bingyun walked lightly into the yard, and saw some scattered puppet parts.
In front of the stone table, sat a gentle and handsome young man in white robe, waved down the teapot and teacup, signaling her to sit down.
Mu Bingyun sat down cautiously, with clear eyes, looking at this elder who appeared to be about the same age as herself.
"You can call me Uncle Lu."
Lu Changan had a kind expression on his face, looking at the girl with a familiar face who was as cold as snow.
Mu Bingyun is 70% similar to the eldest lady back then.
Mu Xiuyun has a gentler temperament, while Mu Bingyun is a little more lonely.
"Senior Lu, my teacher asked me to transfer the message: she appreciates your kindness."
Mu Bingyun didn't change her address, Qingyan smiled politely.
Lu Changan didn't care about the little girl's stubbornness or prejudice.
Mu Xiuyun asked her disciple to call back, explaining that she already knew: Lu Changan had fought for her on the ownership of the Jidan.
"This jade tube, my master asked me to hand it over to you."
Mu Bingyun said again, putting on a jade tube.
Lu Changan took the jade tube, swept his consciousness, and there was a set of inheritance of a second-tier talisman master inside.
Includes Mu Xiuyun's experience in talisman art throughout her life, and also summarizes some other content inherited by talisman masters.
"Bingyun, help me convey my thanks to Master, this jade tube is very useful to me."
Lu Changan put away the jade tube, telling white lies.
"Um."
Mu Bingyunsu held the teacup in her hand and didn't take a sip.
"By the way, when shall I visit Master?"
Lu Changan seemed to have no intention.
"No...no need! The teacher said that he didn't want to see things hurt."
He was afraid that Lu Changan would go to see her master regardless of the obstruction.
Lu Changan knew that Mu Xiuyun didn't want to face her young self.
Let the appearance and temperament compare to her young female apprentice, and visit Lu Changan at home, as if Mu Xiuyun herself was present at the scene.
"Mu Bingyun, you are beautiful! There must be many suitors."
Lu Changan praised.
"I am determined to become a foundation-building monk, and I don't trust any man."
Mu Bingyun's face was clear and reddish, and she was a little embarrassed to be praised by the rumored inspirational foundation-builder monk.
Suddenly.
She realized that when Lu Changan praised her beauty, she wasn't just referring to herself.
She represents the master.
To be precise, it represents the master when he was young.
Looking at the handsome man in front of him who looks not old.
Mu Bingyun had a certain resonance, felt inexplicably sad, and the corners of her eyes were red.
"Bingyun, I've been here recently. If you don't know anything about cultivation and talisman, you can come and ask me."
Lu Changan explained.
"Yes, Uncle Lu."
Mu Bingyun changed her address, said softly, and left with a bow.
…
Lu Changan stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, watching the back of the slim and elegant girl.
"As you wish, all that remain in my memory are the most beautiful voices and appearances."
Lu Changan felt relieved, and gave up the idea of visiting Mu Xiuyun.
As a long-lived person, one must have a detached mentality.
He can calmly face all kinds of passers-by in the long years.
It's like watching a movie, you can be immersed in it, and you can detach yourself from it.
He neither owed the Mu family nor owed Mu Xiuyun.
In Mu's Medicine Garden, in Zhuyeshanfang City, he has changed Mu Xiuyun's fate twice.
Lu Changan has deduced: Mu Xiuyun failed to build a foundation once, which affected the foundation; even if she took the Foundation Establishment Pill for a shock in the rare years, there is a high probability of failure, and her vitality will be seriously injured, affecting the rest of her life.
Therefore, he handed over the right to win Jidan to Mu Xiuyun herself.
Mu Xiuyun made a rational choice in line with the overall situation of the family. As a second-tier talisman master, she will shine in the family and cultivate successors.
…
followed by half a month.
Mu Bingyun came over two or three times to ask Lu Changan about cultivation and talisman skills.
The little girl was very focused, watching Lu Changan's every word and deed, like a recorder.
Just occasionally paying too much attention, staring at him blankly.
During this period, Lu Changan inquired about the news of the surrounding spiritual vein dojos from the senior members of the Mu family.
As a cultivating family, the Mu family has paid attention to the Lingmai Dojo.
In recent years, the number of immortal cultivators of the new generation of the Mu family has increased dramatically. Feiyue Lake's spiritual veins are enough, and new spiritual veins are also needed.
Lu Changan obtained the information on the spiritual pulse collected by the Mu family.
"In the world of cultivating immortals in the Liang Kingdom, spiritual veins dojo is a scarce resource. There are only forces that rent and sell redundant spiritual veins, and only sects and powerful immortal cultivating families."
Lu Changan unfolded a map and drew on it with a pen.
"Fox Valley, the second-level top-grade spiritual vein, belongs to the 'Lihuo Palace'."
Lu Changan's pen drew a small circle at a spiritual vein point in the northwest of the middle of Liang Guoxiu's map.
"This spiritual vein dojo is not near or far from Huanglong Xiancheng, Zhou's House of Yushou, Jinyun Valley, and Fire Palace."
Lu Changan was more excited.
The location of Fox Valley is in line with his wishes.
In a separate spiritual vein dojo, the privacy is definitely better than in Huanglong Fairy City.
Safety and convenience are also important.
Fox Valley is the Lingmai Dojo of the Lihuo Palace of the Nascent Soul-level force, which is close to the hinterland of the Liang State, and is safer than the Lingmai Dojo in the border area of the Liang State.
It is not far from Huanglong Xiancheng, Yushou Zhou's family, and Jinyun Valley, which is convenient for Lu Changan to obtain resources for cultivating immortals and maintain existing contacts and cooperation.
"However, the lease and sale price of this spiritual vein in Fox Valley is expensive, and the minimum lease time is twenty years."
Lu Changan shook his head, he couldn't afford it with his current status.
Second-level high-grade spiritual veins are a bit wasteful for the initial stage of foundation establishment.
"No hurry, there are many options."
Owning a spiritual meridian dojo of your own, planting spiritual herbs and fruits, raising spiritual beasts, making alchemy and drawing symbols, this is the dream of many immortals.
…
Another half month passed.
Lu Changan sensed the changes in the spiritual energy of the heavens and the earth.
In the sky above Yuexin Island, the spiritual energy of the heavens and the earth is slowly gathering, and a small spiritual energy vortex is about to form.
"The time is almost here."
Lu Changan knew that the current Patriarch of the Mu family was attacking the foundation building period, and would attract attention.
Go back to the room.
He took out a talisman and injected a drop of blood and mana breath into it.
The talisman was activated, and a man in white sitting cross-legged appeared in the room.
It can only be discovered at a close distance: the man in white is just a phantom, and his aura is exactly the same as that of Lu Changan.
"Phantom True Talisman, a second-order phantom-like talisman."
Lu Changan had informed Li Ergou in advance that he was going to retreat for meditation these days and didn't want to be disturbed.
That night, Lu Changan sneaked out of Mu's residence without anyone noticing.
As for the role of Mu Xiuyun, she is set to be a female supporting role in the early transition. The store manager made a mistake and wrote a few more strokes, which resulted in a strong sense of presence and made some readers feel uncomfortable. I apologize for this.
But the logic of the plot and characters is reasonable.
In the end, please don’t be fooled, the protagonist and the eldest lady have only been in Fangshi for a few years, and it’s still an underground affair. Some readers said that the protagonist abandoned his wife. Do you know what a wife is? There are also women who say that women who have been in love for more than 20 years don't care about it, and they don't even understand the timeline in the book. What is black? That was more than twenty years of breaking up.
Both parties have long been psychologically prepared and don't care about the result. As adults, they are rational and mature, so they can get together and leave easily. .
