Chapter 119: The Inside Story of the Family in the Immortal Demon Continent
What is the most in short supply in Guyue City?
Longevity Pill.
It is said that the Danfang of the Longevity Pill is only known to the Venerables of the two major sects, so whether it is Water Moon City or Guyue City, the Longevity Pill is firmly controlled by the two major sects, and no one can refine it.
However, the market demand for longevity pills is the largest, and countless adventurers continue to take risks and save money, just so that they can scrape together enough money to buy longevity pills and prolong their lives.
One longevity pill can prolong life by thirty years, and a person can take three pills in his lifetime.
Therefore, the longest life of a rich adventurer is only one hundred and twenty years old.
And the immortal and demon cultivators are using the fivefold as a huge lifespan watershed.
If a cultivator always stops at the fourfold realm, he will only end up living thirty years longer than the person who has obtained the Longevity Pill, and moreover, the Longevity Pill is useless for the awakened.
Therefore, the longevity pill, which is regarded as a treasure by ordinary people, is worthless in the eyes of cultivators.
However, those who cannot be awakened occupy the vast majority of the population in the Immortal Demon Continent after all, so the high-priced longevity pills that have been sold by the two major sects have always been desperately strife.
One longevity pill, 50,000 moon spirit stones, this is the usual price, and sometimes even higher.
The two major religions are extremely strict in controlling the amount of longevity pills, and the number of longevity pills used by the two major religions for market circulation and sale is very limited in a year, so the price of longevity pills on the market is often very high, and they are out of stock for a long time.
On the north and south banks of Yuehu Lake, how many tens of millions of people are those who cannot be awakened?
A small family like the Hu family is because there is no Holy Tree Order in their own family that can be used to deter the Quartet, and there is no strong person who has cultivated as an eightfold realm, and there are countless clansmen who cannot awaken and cultivate, so such a family has always been in a bad situation in a big town like Guyue City.
On Third Street in Dongcheng District, the Xiong family controls forty-four small families, including the Hu family.
These small families have their own strengths, but they need to pay a certain amount of moon spirit stones to the Xiong family every year, which is actually a disguised protection fee.
For example, the Hu family needs to pay five thousand moon spirit stones.
In Meng Yang's mind, Hu Sisi was also a relatively outstanding disciple of the Guyue Sect, and he had stepped into the door of the five-fold cultivation, and the Hu family would be relatively relaxed and comfortable compared to the other small families in the Third Street, only to find out later that he was completely wrong.
Not everyone can dive into the depths of the Moon Lake, not everyone is like him, they can easily deal with sea beasts, destroy the soul attraction grass to obtain the crescent stone, and it is impossible for him to have the luck of the sky and encounter the Five Elements Shark.
Otherwise, the crescent stone would not be worth 20,000 moon spirit stones.
Otherwise, Hu Sisi's incomparably snobbish third aunt would not have changed his attitude drastically because of the twenty low-grade crescent stones he gave out with his raised hand, and he couldn't wait to offer Meng Yang as the God of Wealth!
It can be said that 400,000 moon spirit stones are an unimaginable amount of money for the Hu family, and it is no wonder that when the third aunt saw the storage ring full of moon spirit stones, the joy of that moment almost made her faint with happiness.
Maybe in the eyes of the eldest aunt and the third aunt, this rich boy from Malan Mountain must have been obsessed with their family's Sisi, after all, Sisi's appearance and appearance are among the best in the Third Street and even the entire Guyue City, and it is natural for Meng Yang to be obsessed with Hu Sisi.
The Hu family is a family where women account for more than 90 percent of the population, and the members of their family are all incarnated from nine-tailed foxes.
Their ancestral home is in a mountain range on the east bank of Moon Lake, in fact, when Meng Yang introduced her origin to Sister Na, she borrowed Hu Sisi's ancestral hometown.
According to Hu Sisi, there are still tens of thousands of people in their family living in the ancestral land, which is the continuation of a family and the sacred and inviolable place of each family. However, not every family is strong enough to defend the majesty and security of their ancestral land.
The ancestral lands of the six major families were naturally exceptional, because their families always sent very powerful elders to guard the ancestral land.
The Hu family, however, lost Hu Sisi's second aunt, eldest uncle, and second uncle because of the Xiong family's conspiracy, and now it is Hu Sisi's third aunt and two aunts who are on duty in the ancestral land. The two old women who cultivated to the strongest level barely reached the seven-fold cultivation realm.
Hu Sisi hopes to let the most powerful grandmother return to the clan, and hopes that the family will be revitalized and strong, and on the one hand, he hopes to protect the tens of thousands of people in the ancestral land.
Because they are not only hunted by those adventurers at any time, but also hunted by other clansmen, such as the Xiong family and the Si family, which are closest to her family's ancestral land, they have always regarded their clansmen as prey objects.
Revitalizing the family, earning spirit stones so that the strong people in the clan can obtain follow-up cultivation exercises, and protect the clansmen in the ancestral land, this is the heavy responsibility that has been pressed on Hu Sisi's heart, and it is not until today, in the Hu family, that she said the most sincere words to Meng Yang.
Meng Yang couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
In fact, with Hu Sisi's cultivation as the progress, she should have entered the sixth realm a long time ago, and it was precisely because she couldn't afford to pay the 200,000 moon spirit stones for the sixth level of the exercise, so she gave up her life and death to take Mi'er and other women to do business in various planes, and even reached a city on the edge of the Continent of Desire, and almost failed to return to the immortal demon.
However, because the map of the passage to the Continent of Desire and Desire was obtained by the High Priest of the Moon Temple through an oracle, it could only be used once, and now Hu Sisi couldn't remember how to get there at all. It was also that business trip to the Continent of Desire that made Hu Sisi gain the favor of the Venerable Jixiang, not only rewarded her with hundreds of thousands of moon spirit stones, but also arranged for her to find the Holy Son and Holy Daughter—————— go to the Tianxuan Continent.
It was that amount of money that enabled the two old aunts in her clan to obtain the seventh level of exercise and become the strongest of the Hu family after their grandmother.
When Hu Sisi told Meng Yang about this, her tearful eyes and sad and poignant face made Meng Yang have a unique emotion that could not be suppressed, and he felt that such a beautiful woman should be taken care of and protected by him.
However, Meng Yang still made a point of view clear to Hu Sisi, that is, the simple law of natural survival.
Like those clansmen who live in the ancestral land, in the final analysis, most of them have no chance to cultivate spiritual consciousness, and then turn into human beings, the survival of the fittest, no matter how hard Hu Sisi tries, it is impossible to change the survival status of many races in the entire Immortal Demon Continent.
As for the people in the ancestral land, they don't have to regard protecting them as a necessary responsibility, just try their best to improve their living conditions or living environment, this is the law of heavenly reincarnation, the law of survival, and the truth is that human beings believe in strength.
Meng Yang said, think about it, although the Immortal Demon Continent is not as large as the Tianxuan Cave Heaven, but in addition to the human beings who have been civilized, the number of other creatures is not more than tens of millions?
Plants and trees have to experience withering, flowers blooming, flowering and fruiting, etc., and beasts have to face the predation of the strong, which is understandable. As long as human beings do not intervene in it, nature will slowly reach a mysterious cycle that conforms to the laws of survival.
Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, and shrimp eat mud and dust, which is the same truth through the ages.
Therefore, if one day in the future, when the time is ripe, the first thing to change should be that human beings are no longer allowed to interfere in the affairs of the natural world. This is the method that can fundamentally change the Immortal Demon Continent.
Hu Sisi listened, muttered for a long time, and kept thinking.
Meng Yang proposed that in the future, the three-in-a-row shop would mainly deal in pills, talismans, collect and sell all kinds of materials, and sell two secret magic weapons. As for what kind of secret magic weapon it was, Meng Yang didn't say anything about it for the time being.
Before I knew it, three hours passed quietly.
Suddenly, a maidservant of the Hu family came in to tell her, saying that the young master of the Xiong family asked to see her!
Meng Yang casually looked at it with his divine sense, but saw Xiong Feiyun, who was a little apprehensive, standing behind an old man with extraordinary bearing. Just looking at his mental state, he is several times stronger than Xiong Feiyun. Immediately concluded that this old man must be an elder of the Xiong family or something.
Although Hu Sisi was a little nervous with Meng Yang by his side, he said uneasily: "Childe, it may be the Great Elder of the Xiong Family, this person is said to have been wandering in the Sevenfold Realm for many years, and his strength is unfathomable, so let's be careful." ”
Meng Yang smiled: "It's okay, a poison scared their guts, and now they should have sent money!"
Hu Sisi smiled bitterly, she never thought that one day she would be able to extort 200,000 moon spirit stones from the Xiong family, which was unimaginable.
Meng Yang knew that a figure like the Great Elder of the Xiong Family could suffer a dumb loss on his own territory, but he couldn't figure out his strength, so he personally brought Xiong Feiyun over to find a scene, and he was afraid that there would be a lot of tentative sparks.
Sure enough, Meng Yang sat in place and drank tea for a long time, Hu Sisi stood up and welcomed the old and young of the Xiong family into the living room, and listened to the great elder ask suspiciously: "I don't know where the master from Malan Mountain is?"
Meng Yang slowly put down the teacup, raised his head and smiled, did not get up, looked directly at the elder of the Xiong family and said, "Where are there any masters in Malan Mountain? Didn't ask this senior?"
Hu Sisi hurriedly introduced: "This is the Great Elder of the Xiong Family, and this is a friend of mine, Meng Yang ······ from Malan Mountain."
Elder Xiong stepped forward with heavy steps, walking towards Meng Yang step by step, Hu Sisi only felt like someone beating a drum in his heart, and there was a sense of breathless oppression, but in a panic, he saw that Meng Yang's face did not change, and he still looked directly at Elder Xiong, not affected by the other party's momentum in the slightest.
"You are Meng Yang who won the first place in the big competition this time, Meng Yang from Malan Mountain?" Elder Xiong asked sharply with a gloomy face, standing two meters away from Meng Yang.
"Yes, I'm ashamed to be ashamed, what number one is just a fluke!" replied Meng Yang disappreciatively, not at all meaning to get up.
The elder Xiong had forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart several times, but pointed to Xiong Feiyun, who was shrinking and didn't dare to look at Meng Yang, and said: "My nephew, who is not a weapon, heard that he was defeated by Meng Gongzi with a gesture, and forced him to take highly poisonous things, the old man came to make amends to Meng Gongzi on his behalf today, and asked Meng Gongzi to raise his noble hand and give him an antidote!"
With such a tone and attitude, speaking to people within the scope of the Third Avenue, the Great Elder of the Xiong Family is probably the first time in the world, in his mind, he has already given this young adventurer of Malan Mountain enough face, but he didn't expect that he would still touch a hard nail.
