Chinese New Year period.

The Zhong and Li families walked back and forth with each other to keep in touch with each other.

On the sixth day of the first month, Zhong Yan and Li Henian went to the City Lord's Mansion together, and finally met the legendary City Lord Qin Ben.

Qin Ben has a long figure, a handsome appearance, a gentle smile, and looks like a scholar, which is not the same as he imagined.

He was only in his early thirties, and with the efforts of his father Yu Yin and himself, he became the lord of a city, managing the population of more than 600,000 people in Qingyang City, and holding the power of 80,000 soldiers and horses.

According to Li Henian, he had single-handedly killed a seventh-level Qi refining cultivator.

The record is truly impressive.

You must know that generally speaking, the combat power of innate martial artists is comparable to the seventh layer of qi refining, which is said to be close combat.

When a monk reaches the seventh level of qi refining, he can control the flying magic weapon to control the sky, and in the face of the innate martial artist who cannot take off, as long as he is not entangled in close quarters, he is almost invincible.

Coupled with the long-range attacks of spells and talismans, in the case of the corresponding realm, it is very rare for a warrior to defeat a monk.

Qin Ben is very talkative, easy to make friends, and does not have the arrogance of a child of a family, but exudes a reckless atmosphere.

A feast, the guests and the host are happy.

When he left, Zhong Yan gave three talismans specially refined for mortals to use, and were activated by spells.

Exit the gate of the city lord's mansion.

Li Henian chuckled, "Don't look at him as harmless to humans and animals, but he is also a sinister and cunning person, full of bad water." ”

"Oh?"

"Last year's Dragon Boat Festival, he took the initiative to find me, as well as Bai Daoyou, and intercepted and killed the head of the Liu family in Wangqi City together."

"The head of the Liu family? Liu Tianming? Zhong Yan's eyes flashed slightly, he had been to Wangqi City and had a slight understanding of the Liu family.

Wangqi City is a big city adjacent to Qingyang City, and the Liu family is the only immortal cultivation family in Wangqi City, which was founded less than a hundred years ago, but its strength is not bad, and there are two ancestors in the clan.

Li Henian shook his head, "Liu Tianming has retired, it is his cousin Liu Zhilong, who is refining qi at the eighth level." ”

Zhong Yan smiled: "Brother has gained a lot of benefits, right?" ”

"! Poor ghost! ”

Li Henian sneered, "Originally, I also thought so, how can a family master have no less resources in his hands, but as a result, he was only given a first-order magic weapon and a dozen lower-grade spirit stones, but I myself consumed more than a dozen talismans and half a bottle of pills, and finally Qin Ben added 10,000 taels of silver to me." ”

"Earned too." Zhong Yan asked about the details again, and had a further understanding of Qin Ben, who was bold and careful, far-sighted, and had good martial arts combat power.

Li Henian practiced qi at the sixth level, Bai Siyuan practiced qi at the seventh level, and added a congenital six-layer Qin Ben, and Liu Zhilong, who practiced qi at the eighth level, and a follower at the sixth layer of qi training were killed.

Li Henian: "The main thing is that he is careless, I didn't expect us to dare to do it outside the city." ”

All the way back to Wutong Lane, Li Henian remembered something, "By the way, Brother Xian, there is a gathering of monks in Qinghu Villa on the night of the Lantern Festival, which will be held every year, and the monks in the city who have nothing to do will be present, you can prepare it, and then you can exchange items and exchange cultivation experiences." ”

Zhong Yan nodded, what can be exchanged is the talisman, and the rest, there is a magic weapon in the storage bag that is worth a little money, but it is a dirty thing, and it is easy to have problems when it falls into Yangquanfang City if it is traded out.

Back home.

Zhong Yan saw his wife standing in front of the wooden stake, "Ping'er? ”

"Huh! Husband is back! ”

"What's wrong?"

"It's fine, just a little tired."

"When you are tired, you will rest, and work and rest will be combined." Zhong Yan stepped forward to help his wife wipe the fine sweat on her forehead, her martial arts talent is good, and she has now entered the double body forging.

"Thank you, husband."

After chatting for a while, Zhong Yan went to the cultivation room to make talismans.

In the next few days, he found that his wife was in a daze from time to time, and her mood was not very high.

When I asked her, she said she was fine.

However, after the double repair, the experience of the system panel bonus did not fluctuate.

Zhong Yan asked Xiaohuan about the past few days, but there was no result.

Until this night, Jiang Ping leaned on his chest and whispered, "Does the husband dislike Ping'er?" ”

Zhong Yan was stunned, "Why do you say that?" Is it bad for the husband? ”

"No, the husband takes care of Ping'er in every way! It's a blessing that Ping'er has cultivated for eight lifetimes! ”

Jiang Ping propped herself up, gave her red lips and kissed her, and then her eyes were fixed, as if she had mustered up a lot of courage, and bit her lip and said, "Husband, Ping'er wants to give birth to a child for you." ”

Except for the wedding night, every time the two have a happy day, the husband will withdraw at the last moment, or face or bear.

Just like she doesn't like to turn off the lights, especially her collarbone, she thought it was also her husband's special hobby.

It wasn't until a few days ago that I had a private conversation with a few sisters-in-law in the Li Mansion and asked why there was no movement for a long time, that I realized the problem.

If she doesn't have an heir, and her husband suddenly advances to the middle stage of qi refining, she is a mortal, how can she gain a foothold in the future, and when her husband accepts a concubine, she may fall out of favor.

Zhong Yan looked down at his wife, and suddenly realized that she should have lost her mind about this in the past few days.

He stroked his wife's cheek and said softly: "Don't worry, I'll talk about it later, in the future, your martial arts realm will improve, and you will be able to give birth to a healthy and excellent child." ”

Zhong Yan's original plan was indeed to spread out and have many children and grandchildren.

But with the system panel, this matter has to be put aside, otherwise it will be inconvenient to drag the family and bring the mouth, and there will be more people.

"Well, Ping'er listens to her husband."

Jiang Ping rubbed her face against her broad palm, but her eyes were dim when she lowered her head, and she felt that her husband was most likely disgusted with her humble birth and just wanted to have children with a woman with spiritual roots.

"Alright, don't think about it."

The two hugged each other and slept together.

The next day.

Zhong Yan and Jiang Ping made talismans and practiced before they went to the table, and there was a knock on the door outside.

Subsequently, Xiaohuan led people in, but it was Lin Matchmaker of the 'Marriage Pavilion'.

As soon as she saw her, Jiang Ping's heart tightened, and the meat on the chopsticks fell back into the bowl, and the intention was self-evident.

"Zhong Daoyou, Mrs. Zhong Happy New Year! Door-to-door bothering, I hope you forgive me! ”

Zhong Yan bowed, "Lin Daoyou's New Year's Day, please sit down and eat together." ”

Lin Xuelan glanced at the dining table, secretly said that the food was really good, and said with a smile: "It's not troublesome, I ate it before I came." ”

Jiang Ping got up, helped her move the stool, and poured tea, "Senior Lin, please drink tea." ”

Lin Xuelan looked back and forth on her face, and said with a smile: "Sister Ping'er has a good complexion and radiant complexion, she has been married to Zhongfu for more than three months, why hasn't her stomach improved?" ”

Then he looked at Zhong Yan again, "Zhong Daoyou, you have to hurry, only by having more lives can you give birth to a bloodline with spiritual roots and continue the family!" ”

Zhong Yan put down his chopsticks and complained in his heart, 'Marriage Pavilion' is really good to make money.

A low-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for eight hundred taels of silver, which is the cost of introducing the object with the spirit root qualification, and if you don't find it, you will retreat to the next best, and you still need to pay another price after the negotiation is completed.

In most cases, there is no spiritual root.

And like Jiang Ping, it doesn't cost that much at all, and the maid Xiaohuan bought it for only five taels.

But there is no way, this is other people's way of making money, and they rarely have that time, energy and way to do it by themselves.

"Lin Daoyou's intention, Zhong knows, so he bothers Daoyou to help me find it again, you know the conditions, it's best to have a spiritual root, you can add money!"

The system panel was based on dual cultivation, and Zhong Yan had long suspected that if the object of the intersection had a spiritual root, perhaps the result of the experience bonus would be different.

Besides, now that his wife Jiang Ping wants to practice martial arts, she has been a little overwhelmed recently.

If you have two wives and concubines, it will be much more convenient, and you can still substitute it for a few days during the menstrual period, and stabilize the growth of experience points, although the alternative double cultivation on the lips also has an effect.

"Okay!"

Lin Xuelan patted her thigh and got up, "Zhong Daoyou, just look at it, our marriage pavilion's reputation has always been very good, and we won't let you down!" Then don't bother. ”

Jiang Ping, who had been keeping her head down, stood up, "Senior Lin, I'll send you." ”

When his wife came back, Zhong Yan looked at her and asked, "Ping'er, do you have something to say?" ”

The corners of Jiang Ping's mouth curled up in a beautiful arc, and she blinked and asked, "Husband wants to listen to the truth?" ”

"Straight to the point."

Jiang Ping sat down, clasped Zhong Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "That's good!" Ping'er thought that if she had a sister, she wouldn't have to worry about serving a bad husband. ”

After a pause, she sat up straight, pursed her lips and said with a straight face: "Husband, it is the greatest luck in Ping'er's life to meet you, you love Ping'er, and you are good to Ping'er, Ping'er remembers it in her heart, her husband is a monk, and she will definitely find a monk as a Taoist companion in the future, Ping'er only hopes to be able to accompany her husband and serve her husband all the time." ”

Zhong Yan glanced at her deeply, stretched out his hand and rubbed his white and tender cheeks, "Let's eat." ”

"Hmm!"
