Chapter 671: Yuan Infant Ceremony [Ask for Subscription]
Qinglian Peak, in the Zhongping Palace.
Zhou Chun was the first to personally preside over this family meeting before his Yuanying ceremony.
He hadn't presided over this kind of meeting for a long time, and the reason why he was presiding over it again was because he happened to be free, and it was rare to meet the opportunity for all the high-level leaders of the Zhou family to gather together.
According to his practice of presiding over the meeting, this time there were still clansmen in charge of various family affairs who reported on the current situation of some families.
Among them, the number of high-level monks is omitted, and now the number of monks in the foundation building period of the Zhou family alone has reached one hundred and six, of course, this is the number after including those relatives and servants.
In addition, the number of monks of the Zhou family's own clan has now reached 967, and the number of relatives and servants under their control has reached 2,466!
This number of people is naturally nothing compared to the great sects of the Moon Wheel Sect and the Yanyang Sect.
But for a cultivator family, it is a real number of people, and the soldiers are strong.
It must be known that most of the immortal cultivation families in the immortal cultivation world, in order not to drag down the family, will consciously control the number of clansmen.
Because family resources are limited, if you blindly encourage fertility and increase the number of clansmen, then the family's resources will soon be insufficient.
At that time, ordinary family monks will not enjoy any welfare benefits, and their lives will be similar to that of casual cultivation, so how can they still be loyal to the family and willing to serve the family.
Therefore, the immortal cultivator family usually controls the number of immortal cultivators in the family, and then selects the talented ones to focus on cultivating, hoping to cultivate strong people who can lead the family to the next level.
When the time comes, there will be a strong person with a higher cultivation realm in charge, leading the family to occupy more resources, and the family will be able to expand the number of monks in the family.
So in a sense, from the number of personnel of a cultivator family, the strength and power of this family can also be inferred.
Generally speaking, the number of people in the Jindan family will be controlled at more than 500 and less than 1,000.
With this concentration of resources and cultivation, the number of Purple Mansion Stage monks in the family can reach six or seven, and there are dozens of foundation building monks.
Of course, this is an ideal scenario.
In fact, like the previous Yasukuni, because of the outbreak of many wars in the past few hundred years, the number of monks who died unnaturally has increased significantly, and various families have suffered heavy losses frequently.
Therefore, whether it is the number or quality of family members, it is impossible to match the personality of their own family and the resources they can occupy.
Therefore, after the war, each family tried their best to encourage their clansmen to have children, so that the number of monks increased.
And like the current Zhou family, because it is already a Yuanying family, even if the number of clansmen increases to three or five thousand, it can still be easily bearable.
After all, with the Yuan Infant Stage Monk as a backer, even if the welfare benefits have not been improved compared to before, there are still few middle and low-level monks who will be stupid enough to leave the family.
This is an essential difference from those small and medium-sized families.
At this time, after listening to the report of the monks below on the situation of the family, Zhou Chun also looked at the people in the hall and said slowly: "This family meeting, mainly three things, the first thing is to revise the status of the family members, cancel the stipulation that if you succeed in the elder, you will become the elder of the Taishang, and the future elders of the family will only be Zhou Zhengbai, Mingde Ancestor, and Daoyi Uncle Ancestor, and the status of the guest Qingshang elder Luo Qingni Daoyou will remain unchanged!" ”
"In the future, if a family cultivator wants to become the elder of the family, he must either succeed in marrying a baby, or he has the cultivation of the Jindan stage and has reached the realm of a grandmaster in a certain skill!"
"In the same way, if you want to become a family elder in the future, you must have a Jindan stage cultivator, or a Purple Mansion stage clan member who has reached the master-level level in the two skills of alchemy and formation."
"The selection criteria for the rest of the core clansmen and elite clansmen will be raised in turn, and only those who have successfully opened up the Purple Mansion and built the foundation are eligible for selection."
As soon as these words were finished, the Zhou family members below had no opinions.
The rules of the immortal cultivation world are like this, when there are higher realm monks in a force, then the identity and status of the monks in the sect must be readjusted.
After all, under normal circumstances, the "Supreme Elder" is a monk with the highest status in a sect and family.
If Zhou Chun is the only one in the Zhou family who is a Yuan Infant Cultivator, then his identity as a patriarch may be more transcendent, above the Supreme Elder.
But now there is a fifth-order demon king Zhou Zhengbai, so a change must be made.
As for why Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi were able to rank as the Supreme Elders with Jindan Period Cultivation, it was naturally because they were higher in rank than Zhou Chun, and they had great contributions to both Zhou Chun himself and the Zhou family.
The other Zhou family monks would not be unconvinced by this, and they did not dare to have any unconvinced mentality.
What's more, Zhou Chun is not also outside of cultivation, and he also gives a way.
If there is really anyone with outstanding talent in the future, who can master the skills of the Grandmaster Realm with the Jindan Stage Cultivation, then he can also become a Supreme Elder, and his status and treatment will be on par with the Yuan Infant Stage Cultivator within the family!
After saying the first thing like this, Zhou Chun quickly continued: "The second thing, in the future, the family will have to make new adjustments in the distribution of important resources such as knotting Dan spiritual objects, assisting in opening up Zifu spiritual objects, and building foundation pills. ”
"Every three, ten, and thirty years, the family will hold a special family meeting, and the clansmen of relevant status will jointly consider which clansmen can obtain the qualifications for the exchange of these important resources."
"The special family meeting is composed of clansmen of different identities and statuses according to the different degrees of preciousness of the deliberation and allocation of important resources, of which the three-year small meeting is generally presided over by one or two elders, and the core clan participates in the review and voting, and the ten years will be presided over by more than three elders, and the core clan participates in the review and voting, and the thirty-year meeting is presided over by the patriarch or the elder Taishang, and the elder-level clansmen can participate in the review and voting!"
"It should be noted that at the three-year meeting, the elders can vote for five; At the mid-10 session, the elders may cast three votes; At the Thirty-Year Conference, the Patriarch or Supreme Elder may cast five votes; At each meeting, the moderator announces the number of redemption qualifications issued at that meeting! ”
"Before each special family meeting, the family will notify the qualified clansmen one year, half a year, three months in advance, if they have no intention or no time to participate in the review and voting, they can take the initiative to explain to the family, otherwise it will be regarded as abstention, and those who abstain three times in a row will be deprived of the qualification to participate in the review and voting in the future!"
"Under normal circumstances, all clansmen who want to apply for the qualification to exchange important resources, if they themselves meet the application conditions, they must submit an application to the clan in advance before each special family meeting, and then the relevant clansmen who are responsible for deliberation will determine whether to agree and grant them the exchange qualifications."
"The criteria for deliberation should be comprehensively considered in terms of qualifications, exercises, longevity, strength, personal merits, etc., clansmen who have seriously violated clan rules are not allowed to participate in the application for the exchange of important spiritual objects, and clansmen who have slightly violated clan rules should also be punished with one or more rounds of postponement of the application depending on the extent of their violation of clan rules!"
Speaking of this, Zhou Chun also paused slightly, and looked at the Purple Mansion Stage monks of the family who had changed their expressions a lot
Then he continued: "In addition to the above normal channels for obtaining exchange qualifications, there are also some abnormal channels that can also obtain exchange qualifications, one is that the spiritual root qualification itself is outstanding, such as the high-grade spiritual root qualification, which can directly obtain a Zhuji Dan exchange qualification; Then those who have an extraordinary talent in a certain skill and have been approved by the family elders can also obtain the exchange qualification; The third type is those who have made some outstanding contributions to the family and have made great contributions to the family, and have been specially rewarded by the patriarch or the Supreme Elder! ”
"Of course, obtaining the exchange qualification is only the qualification to exchange, and the good deeds required to exchange spiritual objects cannot be exempted, and when the relevant spiritual objects in the family treasury are out of stock, they also need to wait for replenishment."
"And once it is found that there is favoritism and fraud in the process of obtaining the exchange qualification, or if there is a serious violation of the family rules after obtaining the exchange qualification, the exchange qualification will also be cancelled, and the relevant personnel will be jointly and severally liable!"
At the end of the words, Zhou Chun also made a solemn warning.
And after his words were finished, the monks of the Zhou family who heard about this matter for the first time all changed their expressions and were extremely uneasy.
Is Zhou Chun's decision fair?
Relatively fair!
But what is fair may not necessarily be accepted by everyone!
In the past, the Zhou family, not to mention the spirit object of the Dan, assisted in the development of the Purple Mansion Spirit Object and the Zhuji Dan, but there was a lot of room for operation if they wanted to exchange it.
Basically, those Purple Mansion Stage cultivators can easily exchange it for Zhuji Dan for their descendants or those who value it.
So if your father is a Purple Mansion monk, and he didn't give birth to ten or eight monk offspring, you can basically guarantee that you can get a Tsukidan in the family!
However, if you vote according to the method newly stipulated by Zhou Chun, then even the Purple Mansion Monk who has the right to vote for the exchange qualification in Tsukidan may not be able to guarantee that his descendants can obtain the Tsukidan exchange qualification from the family!
And if he couldn't obtain the qualification to exchange the Tsukidan from the family, the Purple Mansion Monk would have to hemorrhage himself and buy the Tsukidan from the outside market at a high price for future generations.
At the same time, on the other hand, because the Purple Mansion Stage monks basically rarely deal with Qi cultivation stage monks anymore, allowing them to participate in the review and voting to determine the exchange qualifications of Zhuji Dan can also ensure fairness as much as possible.
After all, if they are not familiar with most of the monks who apply for the exchange qualification, they will really vote on whether the monk can obtain the exchange qualification based on the monk's personal situation.
Zhou Chun's choice to throw out such a system at this point in time is also just right.
In less than half a month, it will be his Yuanying ceremony, and in this context, the Purple Mansion and Jindan monks present now, even if some people are dissatisfied with his system, they are not good and dare not show it now.
Otherwise, there would be no need for him to speak out, and naturally there would be other people who wanted to curry favor with him, or those who defended him, jumped out to criticize him, and offended him and the high-ranking members of the family for nothing.
Therefore, at this time, although many people present were disgusted, in the end, no one expressed other opinions, which can be regarded as acquiescence to the matter.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun also symbolically waited for a while, and then said the last thing.
"The third thing I want to talk about today is to emphasize and publicize the family style, with the growth of the family's power and status by leaps and bounds, in the future, you high-level family members, and even some family foundation building monks, will have a very high status in the Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation Realm, and win the favor and favor of many vassal forces and even other external forces."
"Therefore, what I want to emphasize here is that this seat does not require you to all have clean sleeves, but it is strictly forbidden for you to do something that seriously violates the family rules and corrupts the family style, what gifts can be received, what benefits can not be taken, before you stretch out your hand, it is best to think carefully about the family rules!"
"At the same time, if it is found that someone is relying on the reputation of the family, taking the initiative to bully the vassal forces or even scatter the cultivators, and ask for relevant benefits, the family will definitely deal with it severely and strictly, and there will be no appeasement!"
"If people don't know, unless you don't do it, you are all people who have cultivated for a long time, and this seat doesn't want you to cultivate to this level with great difficulty, but in the end you will spend the rest of your life in cold prison because of some yellow and white things!"
The monks of the Zhou family who knew a little about the patriarch Zhou Chun knew that the patriarch of his family had always been a person who paid great attention to his reputation, and he was also very principled in his actions.
Therefore, the third thing he said did not cause any criticism or dissatisfaction.
The Zhou family has always had a good family style, no worse than those famous factions, but now it is just a matter of continuing to keep to their hearts and not be confused by greed.
In this way, in the midst of a voice of approval, the family meeting was successfully concluded.
However, the content of this family meeting was only announced the first thing Zhou Chun said, so as not to affect the mood of other middle and low-level clansmen celebrating the Yuan Infant Ceremony.
Half a month passed quickly.
On the day when Zhou Chunyuan's infant ceremony began, the entire Qinglian Peak and the surrounding peaks were all purple and red, dotted with all kinds of flowers and red silk, creating a festive atmosphere.
There are also cranes, white apes, spirit deer and other auspicious beasts in the mountains playing and chasing.
The monks of the Zhou family in the mountain, the male cultivators all wore purple shirts, and the female cultivators all wore red skirts, and everyone was smiling, and their eyes were full of joy and pride.
In this Yuanying ceremony, Zhou Chun did not engage in any preaching and Dharma meetings like the original Tianjing real people, but just a pure celebration ceremony.
Of course, this is because he is not good at preaching, but also because the Zhou family does not need to be as eager to win people's hearts through preaching as Tianjing Zhenren was at the beginning.
"Su Changxin, the patriarch of the Su family in Jiangzhou, presented a congratulatory gift on behalf of the Su family, a three-thousand-year-old purple ginseng, and wished Zhou Zhenren a great success and a true truth!"
At the gate of Zhoujia Mountain, Zhou Xinyan, the elder of the Zhou family, who was in charge of singing, sang loudly to unveil the first scene of today's ceremony.
For example, the celebration held by such monks to break through the great realm is also extremely important, and it is also the most talked about link.
Many middle and low-level monks like to talk about the congratulatory gifts given by various forces.
If the gift is light, they will think that they are disrespectful to the main family, and then discuss whether there is any enmity between the two parties, or whether they are simply poor and sour, and they will not be able to get a congratulatory gift that meets their own grade.
And those who loosen their generous gifts will naturally cause a lot of exclamations and discussions, discussing whether they have a strong family wealth or a swollen face and become fat.
All in all, it is also a university question when it comes to gift-giving at such important celebrations.
The Jiangzhou Su family, as the in-law force of the Zhou family, is headed by their family, which is also a matter that has been decided a long time ago.
And this gift was even handed over to Su Yuzhen by Zhou Chun in advance, otherwise it would not be so easy for the Su family to come up with a gift of this grade now.
In this way, after the Su family has started, there will be a chance for other forces to enter.
However, there are many forces that came to congratulate today, and the forces that are really qualified to make Zhou Xinyan open his mouth to sing must at least be at the level of the Jindan family.
Of course, if there is a monk who gives a particularly precious gift, it is an exception.
"Lingzhou Xuanzhu Palace Elder Jin Ziyan sent a congratulatory gift on behalf of Xuanzhu Palace, [Flawless Topaz] three pieces, congratulations to Zhou Zhenren Yuanying Dacheng and the Tao come true!"
With Zhou Xinyan's voice sounding again, a graceful and dignified purple-clothed beauty slowly walked up to Qinglian Peak, surrounded by several beautiful female cultivators.
Yes, go up!
In today's Yuan Infant Ceremony, except for the Yuan Infant Monks, no other monks are allowed to fly on the mountain to show respect for their masters.
Next, a Jindan period monk who was considered famous in the Yasukuni Immortal Cultivation Realm, after offering carefully prepared congratulatory gifts, walked step by step from the entrance of Zhoujia Mountain Gate to Qinglian Peak, which was dozens of miles away.
Of course, although he can only walk, the Jindan period monk is idle for one step and ten zhang, even if it is dozens of miles away, it will not take long at all.
After these people arrived at Qinglian Peak, they would all enter their corresponding seats under the beckoning of Zhou Daoyi.
And whenever someone is seated, there will be a monk of the Zhou family who acts as a waiter and brings the spiritual fruit and spiritual tea to the table.
For example, Zhou Mingde, Lin Hongyu, Xu Fu and other monks of the Zhou family in the Jindan period will also greet some monks who are familiar with each other and communicate in private.
Time passed slowly, and by the time it was close to noon, the number of Jindan monks visiting Qinglian Peak had exceeded twenty, including some Moon Wheel Sect elders and monks outside Yasukuni.
"Liu Zhenkong of the Great Zhou Kingdom Thunder Cliff Valley presented a congratulatory gift on behalf of the master Crazy Thunder Zhenren, a fourth-order high-grade demon pill, wishing Zhou Zhenren the success of the Yuan Infant and the realization of the Tao."
Suddenly, Zhou Xinyan's slightly excited singing voice resounded throughout the entire Zhoujia Mountain Gate.
On Qinglian Peak, many Jindan stage monks showed surprised looks.
"Mingde Daoyou, this Wild Thunder True Person, but the Exotic Yuan Infant Monk who once fought with the Heavenly Mirror True Person outside the Noble Mountain Gate?"
On a seat, Wei Yong, the elder of the Moon Wheel Sect Jindan, who had taken good care of Zhou Chun in the Immortal and Demon War, also looked at Zhou Mingde with surprise on his face at this time and asked the doubts in his heart.
Hearing what he said, many Jindan monks present who did not know the inside story all set their eyes on Zhou Mingde.
Facing everyone's gaze, Zhou Mingde couldn't help but bow his head slightly and said: "What Wei Daoyou said is good, Crazy Thunder Zhenren did have a misunderstanding with my Zhou family at the beginning, so he came to the door." ”
After speaking, he smiled smugly and said: "But now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, the predecessors of the Wild Thunder Real Man are also deeply remorseful for their original misdemeanor, and this time I specially prepared a heavy gift to ask the disciple to send to apologize to my Zhou family!" ”
"I see! It seems that the rumors are true, Zhou Zhenren's strength is still the same as at the beginning, far beyond the ordinary existence of the same level! ”
Wei Yong nodded, and said with a sudden sigh.
Hearing what he said, the others also quickly followed up with compliments, not letting go of this opportunity to make a fool of themselves.
And Zhou Mingde, Zhou Daoyi and other Zhou family elders naturally laughed very happily when they saw this.
Although these people complimented Zhou Chun, Zhou Chun himself was a member of the Zhou family, and the two were inseparable.
Therefore, complimenting Zhou Chun is also tantamount to complimenting the Zhou family, and it is equivalent to complimenting them, the monks of the Zhou family.
But seeing Liu Zhenkong, who gave a congratulatory gift, he quickly walked dozens of miles and came to Qinglian Peak.
This person is a disciple of the Wild Thunder Zhenren, and he is also a monk in the late stage of Jindan, but he is also quite arrogant.
After ascending Qinglian Peak, in addition to greeting Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi, the two elders of the Zhou family, he did not look at those Jingguo Jindan monks in his eyes.
This immediately made Wei Yong and other local monks feel displeased, but because of the occasion, it was difficult to say anything, but they all tacitly did not greet him and isolated him.
Not long after this person ascended Qinglian Peak, the real highlight came up.
"Xiao Sheng, the sect leader of the Yanyang Sect, sent a congratulatory gift on behalf of the Yanyang Sect, a piece of the best magic weapon [Qingxuan Seal], congratulations to Zhou Zhenren Yuanying Dacheng and the truth of the truth!"
With Zhou Xinyan's excited and high-spirited singing, the entire Qinglian Peak was boiling from top to bottom.
In the game of Yuan Infant Stage monks such as Zhou Chun and Ziyang Zhenren, there are very few people who know the inside story after all, and the vast majority of Jindan Stage monks will not know about this kind of thing.
So after hearing Zhou Xinyan's words at this moment, many Jindan period monks showed incredible expressions.
"Tut-tut, the Yanyang Sect is really a big deal! Even the best magic weapon is willing to take it out as a gift! ”
After being shocked, Wei Yong of the Moon Wheel Sect seemed to understand something, and couldn't help but sigh and laugh with a strange face.
He came over on behalf of the Moon Wheel, but he only gave a three-thousand-year-old elixir, so it can be said that the congratulatory gift is very common.
But no one will feel that there is anything wrong, after all, the Moon Wheel Sect is willing to send people to come over to give gifts in the name of the sect, which is already very much to give face to the Zhou family.
However, the Yanyang Sect would actually take out the best magic weapon [Qingxuan Seal] as a congratulatory gift to the Zhou family, which is obviously a very unreasonable thing.
It will inevitably cause all kinds of speculation and heated discussions.
It's just that this kind of heated discussion is bound not to happen on Qinglian Peak.
Because the Jindan period monks present are the pillars of various forces, they don't dare to point fingers at the Yanyang Sect openly and honestly like Wei Yong, yin and yang.
At most, wait for the end of the market to privately inquire about information and speculate on the matter.
And the presence of the Yanyang Sect also came to an end for the gift link.
When noon came, Zhou Chun, the main master, finally appeared.
I saw that spell fireworks suddenly rose in the sky, and in the dazzling fireworks in the sky, a speeding car magic weapon pulled by the fourth-order Qingjiao and the fourth-order fire phoenix suddenly appeared in the sky, and along the way, the sparks with lightning slowly flew towards Qinglian Peak against the backdrop of the fireworks in the sky.
Zhou Chun, a Yuan Infant Monk, and Zhou Zhengbai, a fifth-order demon king, are now sitting together in that [Thunder Fire Flying Car].
The appearance of this dragon and phoenix cart also shocked all the guests on Qinglian Peak and many Zhou family members, and became a classic scene that many people will never forget in their lives!
I'm so tired! It's been the last two days, and I don't want to pull my crotch!!
