Chapter 347: Rui's Clan
Li Xiyu walked around in the mountains and forests for a day, the clan soldiers complained bitterly, and they couldn't leave because of their illness, Li Xiyu took care of himself, and a group of soldiers and horses only left more than forty percent, and finally arrived at the hills where the Li family was adhere.
There is a Qi-level Lingbi ore vein in this hill, which is jointly controlled by the five Fetal Breath families, and is mined for the Xiao family, known as the Lingbi Five Families.
After walking out of a few miles and entering the territory of the Rui family, which was close to the Li family, he saw two small pieces of spiritual fields, and the rest of the soldiers and horses scattered in a crowd, jumping into the field to pull rice, leaving only more than 100 people to follow him.
"This is Lingdao!"
Four clan soldiers passed in front of him, and this Lingdaoqiu did not commit any crimes, and it was ruined in the blink of an eye, Li Xiyu stood up and reprimanded symbolically.
Although Li Xiyu loves the children of the clan and pays for them with money and food, he helps those brothers in the clan who are outstanding, and he also has no good impression of these gentlemen who have ruined the reputation of the family, so he only believes that the horse walks on the path and says secretly:
"The lazy and stupid ones ran away on the road, and now they send a batch of greedy and stupid ones, and there are ...... left."
He was carrying a spear in his heart, when a team of soldiers and horses came up in front of him, and said respectfully:
"Childe, the formation has been broken, please go up the mountain!"
Li Xiyu nodded, observed the terrain, clamped his crotch, and said suspiciously:
"Since a big mine like Lingbi Mine has been raised, how can the leylines and spiritual machines in this place be barren like this!"
The spiritual field at the head of this land is placed in the poor land where the Li family will not steal seeds, but the Rui family uses it to grow spiritual rice, and the lack of spiritual power in the territory can be seen, Li Xiyu only said secretly:
"Not to mention that this land is ripe once in two years, it is estimated that it can only be ripened once in seven or eight years! It's no wonder that the five families next to this Lingbi mine can't squeeze out a single Qi practice for so many years. ”
Rui Jiafeng.
The big array on the small peak of the Rui family had already been broken with a bang, and it was not even broken by the Li family, Chen Mufeng symbolically attacked a few times, shouting the name of the Li family, and the other party hurriedly opened the big array.
Li Xiyu remembered the instructions of his family, and went to the top of the mountain to see the spiritual spring first.
The spiritual spring on this Ruijia Peak is a pool of green and blue, slightly chilly, and the aura content is slightly lower than that on the Jiahua Qian Mountain, and he doesn't know whether it is suitable or not, so he filled a small bottle with a jade bottle and took it back to take a look.
After arranging the most important things, Li Xiyu stepped on the snow and stepped into the main hall of the Rui family.
In front of him is a young man, dressed in armor, holding a halberd, it is Chen Mufeng, after breaking through this mountain, he has been waiting for Li Xitong here, standing in the main hall, two rows of clan soldiers with knives lined up, cold and cold.
Chen Mufeng is Chen Donghe's son and nephew, Li Qiuyang's apprentice and son-in-law, although the Chen family does not have many spiritual skills, but those who have spiritual skills are outstanding, Chen Mufeng is only twenty-seven, and he already has the cultivation of the five-layer Yujing wheel of fetal breath.
Although the breakthrough was not long and his cultivation was not stable, he still had the hope of thirty impacts to practice qi, and he was immediately valued and promoted by the Li family, and he was regarded as a hot person in the clan.
Li Xiyu just entered, and a group of Rui family members ran down, knelt down in front of him, and the white-haired old man led by him held the jade seal, raised it high, and buried his head and said:
"The Rui clan welcomes the giant clan generals, and I would like to offer the green seal, and I am willing to serve the dogs and horses of the powerful clan, and never be ...... together."
This old man of the Rui family seems to be the highest person in the Rui family, but he is only a fourth-layer fetal breath, not as good as Chen Mufeng, and he does not dare to offend the Li family, who is sitting on the foundation and practicing a lot of qi, and only holds the jade seal of "under the rule of Qingchi" in his hand.
Chen Mufeng worked as a small servant in the Fang City, and when he returned home, he led people to slaughter the Shanyue nobles, became a general, and had rich experience.
"That's a beautiful point!"
"Huh."
Li Xiyu didn't answer him, looked around, there were two small piles of spiritual rice on the side, it seemed to be an offering, very little, not as many as his own clan, he glanced at it and passed.
On the ground, there are dozens of white clumps of pink things on the jade plate, which are crystal white and look quite cute, and there are five or six jade bottles, which are full of blood.
Although Li Xiyu had been in Dongshanyue for a few years and had learned a lot about spiritual objects, he had little contact with the transactions behind the monks' backs, and said with a little doubt:
"What is this?"
The old man hurriedly picked it up, the fleshy thing was pink and cute, and said respectfully:
"The name of this thing is 'rice meat', the Yu family... The thief asked for this kind of offering back then. ”
Li Xiyu looked at it for a while, only to feel inexplicable, and waved his hand away from him, Chen Mufeng on the side had already understood, and came up with an ugly face:
"The so-called 'rice meat' is raised with rice, which refers to mortals, and should be refined by secret methods, as well as 'blood meat', which is the elegant name of flesh."
Li Xiyu's face turned pale for a while, but he was well cultivated and never spoke, Old Man Rui only looked at the faces of the two of them, and immediately understood that the horse's fart was on the horse's leg, so he had to bite the bullet and say:
"The villain doesn't know that the nobles don't like this thing, I'm afraid it's offended, and I ask the adults to forgive me! The villain is called Rui Qiongcuo, the ancestor... The ancestor is the Xiao family. ”
Rui Qiongcuo's words were pulling backers, Chen Mufeng glanced at him, and also ignored him.
The Rui family and several families around this Lingbi mine were all ignited by the Xiao family in their early years, mining minerals for the Xiao family, and they are vassals to put it mildly, and they are mine slaves if they are ugly.
The Xiao family didn't give any evidence, but it was naturally impossible for the Li family to annex their own vassals, and Chen Mufeng saw that Li Xiyu didn't speak, so he stood still.
Rui Qiongcuo secretly beat the drum in his heart, after all, everyone knew about the attack on the Xiao family, and he didn't know how the Xiao family's casualties were, which made this old fritter who had always been a ghost a little uneasy:
"The Li family... is also supported by the Xiao family, maybe there will be nothing wrong? ”
Just thinking about it, another person came up outside the hall, Old Man Rui had never cultivated his spiritual sense, only heard Chen Mufeng, who was holding a halberd, call "Master" respectfully, most of them were Qi cultivators, and they hurriedly lowered their heads and didn't dare to speak.
The person who came was Li Qiuyang, after all, these small clans were just fetal breath monks who stood up to the sky, so they didn't bother the Li family to practice qi, and only sent Li Qiuyang and others to go.
Li Qiuyang tightened his robe, there was still snow on his body, he looked thoughtful, he held a pale blue diamond-shaped ore in his hand, and said softly:
"I was ordered by the clan to explore the Lingbi mine excavated by the five families."
"The Trouble Clan is old."
Li Xiyu responded, looked at Li Qiuyang's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, first silently put away the ore, and said in a deep voice:
"Since the Rui family has entered my Li family's fence, there should be restraints, and no longer use people as spiritual materials, what kind of 'rice meat' and 'blood', my family is the most important matter, and please don't try the law by Rui's example."
This matter was disgraceful, but now that Li Xiyu said it bluntly, Rui Qiongcuo's face couldn't hold it, and he was submissive, and secretly complained in his heart:
"It's so domineering...... When the Yu family was there, they had to collect blood and qi as offerings, and they changed to the Li family and banned rice and meat, which is really a family and a temper, but I am barren in this vein, so I don't need to take some old, weak, sick and disabled people as medicine...... What can I do? ”
Although there are such good things as Lingbi Mine on the land of the five families, the spiritual veins and spiritual machines seem to have been gathered away by this mineral vein, and a large area is a wasteland where the spiritual machine is extremely barren, and it is too difficult for the Rui family to grow spiritual rice and spiritual objects, so they can only use various means to make a living......
Li Xiyu looked at his submissive appearance, organized his language, and continued:
"The head of my family knows the situation you are waiting for, and he doesn't want you to worship in vain, so he allows the Rui family to send people to come to my family's territory to plant rice under the Yuting Peak to study, and my family only receives 20% of the rent."
The old man was stunned for a moment, his eyes were no longer sly-tricked, but became deeply confused, looking at Li Xiyu's face, he said a little stupidly:
"Go to the foot of Yuting Peak and plant rice ......"
Old man Rui muttered a few words, his eyes were a little red, and he hurriedly asked:
"I don't know how much the Shang clan will charge?"
"Take the water of your family's spiritual spring, and the twenty percent of the rent will be regarded as an offering!"
Li Xiyu waved his hand, and Old Man Rui still looked in disbelief, staring blankly.
Of course, Rui Qiongcuo knows how fertile the family's land is, how abundant the spiritual wit, and he has also been greedy, but when he was in charge of the family, the Ji family was the most prosperous, and Ji Dengqi was particularly domineering, and it was not his turn to covet it.
Later, the Ji family went to the An family, and the An family went to the Li family, what [White Jade Hand], what [Yueque Sword], it is even more powerful, and it can destroy its own family by blowing a breath.
As for secretly selling mines... The Xiao family's technique of finding the pulse is profound, how much ore is missing in the mine, and how much is handed over to his family, people understand very well in their hearts that once the incident happens, it will be a disaster for the destruction of the whole clan.
The Rui family didn't want to escape from this poor place, but the Xiao family sent people to collect the mine every year, and the Rui family really didn't dare to move, so they could only toss it year after year.
Now that there is hope, decades of sadness welled up in my heart, and for a while, I burst into tears, and said respectfully:
"Thank you, Childe!"
Seeing that Old Man Rui was bowing down against the ground, with a greatly moved appearance, Li Xiyuan was slightly surprised.
The order was given by Li Yuanping, but he didn't think about it so much, the Li family was short of manpower, and there were still a large vacant spiritual fields under Yuting Peak, but it was the difference between being idle and renting out.
"Alright."
Old man Rui has become a kowtow worm, Li Xiyu ordered someone to help him up, the old man was full of tears, and he looked really moved.
Rui's gratitude was of little use to the Li family, but Li Xiyu was a benign son, and he was in a good mood when he saw the old man's moving appearance, and said some comforting words, and Tian Zhongqing on the other end also brought someone over.
The Pu clan was also very grateful and sent two fetal monks over.
"Then let's go home."
Li Xiyu settled everything, warned the Rui family repeatedly, transcribed a copy of the Rui family's exercises, and took a closer look, sure enough, they were some big road goods, and they had them at home, so they had to move back to the family.
————
This expedition is quite a bit of thunder and rain, just one day to set two families, triumphantly returned, the Li family took the Rui family and the Pu family two vassals near their own, by renting land tied together, much closer than the ordinary offering.
Li Xiyu returned with more than 100 people, Yu Tingwei killed more than 1,000 people for not respecting military law and family law, and the rest were removed from the sect name and released to Shanyue, and the clan was clear.
This crime was planted steadily, Li Yuanping not only did not have to quarrel with the old clan uncle of this group, but also took advantage of the situation to correct the family style, and the major events in his heart were over, and his pace was a little brisker.
"It's just that this group of old clan uncles is not stupid, even if they are seen by others, my reputation will inevitably be ugly."
Li Yuanping listened to some abuse, didn't care, and spent a few days trying to appease the old clan uncle, and then left this matter behind.
Sitting at the wide table, Li Yuanping picked up a small letter and frowned.
This letter was written by An Luyan, who was stationed in Huaqian Mountain, and the Lingquan of the Rui family had already sent it over, filled with seven or eight jade bottles, but was resolutely thrown out of the cave by the old monkey one by one.
An Partridge Yan chattered with the old monkey like a monkey for a long time, and then he realized that it was said that the spiritual spring of the Rui family was too cold, and there was some gold poison, and if it was poured like this, I was afraid that it would destroy this spiritual root.
"This!"
When Li Yuanping heard the news, he was immediately shocked into a cold sweat, and silently rejoiced, if it weren't for this old monkey to check it, wouldn't it be a waste of this foundation-level cash cow.
Silently wrote down the old monkey in his heart, Li Yuanping was thinking about whether to send someone to check the spring, and at the same time called Li Qiuyang, who claimed to have something important to report.
Li Qiuyang's face was serious, he took out a light blue ore from the storage bag, and said in a low voice:
"Master of the family, I waited to check the ore on the five Lingbi families that claimed to be Lingbi Mine, and took samples back."
After saying that, he handed over this ore, Li Yuanjiao took it and took a look, it was light and dazzling, with some golden light, this ore was a spiritual object at the level of Qi training, and it was afraid of hurting the human body, Li Qiuyang was afraid of hurting Li Yuanping, so he had already sealed it with a spell.
Li Yuanping couldn't see any fame, Li Qiuyang had already said solemnly:
"This is not a Lingbi, it is Cuiyuan Copper Essence, which is a very rare spiritual object, and my subordinates still learned about this thing when they were chatting with the Xiao family monks."
"Cuiyuan Copper Essence is a spiritual object at the level of Qi training, which needs to be mined by a fetal breath monk, this thing has a cold temperament, and it hurts the body the most, and it has never broken through the Qi cultivation to enter the mine, which hinders the path and Shouyuan, and it will become more and more difficult to break through in the future."
"The five Lingbi families don't know that they mine every year, and the copper essence will also infect the spiritual field and hurt the spiritual things, and the entire Lingbi five families can't grow many spiritual rice spiritual things because of this thing."
Li Yuanping felt a chill behind him, suddenly realized, put down this copper essence, nodded and said:
"I see... No wonder the five Lingbi families have been in the womb for so many years, and they haven't practiced a few qi at all, no wonder the Xiao family wants to turn other clans, firstly, the Qingchi Sect is strictly forbidden to cross the peak and even the county, for fear of stimulating the Qingchi Sect, and secondly, they are reluctant to send people to mine. ”
Just after a little thought, Li Yuanping's previous doubts in his heart were explained, and he muttered:
"No wonder that spring water has gold poison, I'm afraid it is also dyed by Cuiyuan copper essence."
He felt much more relieved and asked:
"The monks of the Rui family and the Pu family have been arranged?"
"It has been arranged, and the boundary has been drawn in Yuting Peak to plant spiritual rice."
Li Qiuyang answered, Li Yuanping picked up the red pen, mentioned a few words on the small letter from An Luyan, handed it to him, and said softly:
"Uncle Troublesome Clan transferred it to Wutu Peak."
