016 Head of the house
A few days later.
Fangzheng, who came 'in a hurry' from Gu'an County, was led into the Linghu family's mansion in Fucheng.
The courtyard is full of people and bustling.
Even in the crowd, he was wearing a purple robe and a strong body, which attracted much attention.
The majestic spirit of the Leakless Martial Master is like a pearl in the night, naturally attracting the attention of others.
A slight burst of power can separate the crowd on its own.
"Immortal Master Qiao!"
Fang Zheng clenched his fists and bowed his hands, and saluted one person in the field:
"I haven't seen you for a long time, your old body and bones are getting better and better, which makes the younger generations ashamed."
"Fang Daxia, don't laugh at the old decay." Immortal Master Qiao shook his head:
"At this age, half of my body is in the ground, and I am already content if I can move."
"Haha......" Fang Zheng laughed:
"Immortal Master Qiao is too humble."
The Qiao Immortal Master in front of him was just an ordinary mage, his strength was not strong, but he was more than ninety years old.
More than ninety, it can be regarded as a human Rui here.
In addition, his seniority is high enough, and he is highly respected in Fucheng, and many family disputes will invite him to be a middle-aged person.
"Brother Liu!"
"Brother Fang!"
Today, Liu Sandao of the Big Knife Gang is also there.
In the battle to besiege and kill the Black Wind Master, Liu Sandao escaped by chance, but he also paid the price of losing an arm.
Three knives,
Directly became a knife!
It is difficult to achieve success in cultivation, so he simply began to manage his relationship, and now he is also a celebrity in Fucheng.
The two knew each other well, and after seeing each other, they walked into the lobby of Linghu's house.
Today is the day when the fox family is the head of the family, and they are all invited to come and witness it.
In addition to them, quite a few people arrived.
"Senior Fang."
One person came to the near future and invited in a low voice:
"You may be seated."
"Immortal Master Qiao, Gang Leader Liu, please come with the juniors."
Above the lobby, people come and go, some old and some young, most of them are famous figures in Zhaonan Mansion.
Fang Zheng sat upright, very close to the main seat.
The positions of Qiao Xianshi and Liu Sandao were all below him.
Not......
He touched his chin, thoughtful.
After decades of hard work, now he is finally a character, and the reputation of the lord of Gu'an County and the lord of square porcelain is also well known in Fucheng. β
'If you ask about things now, you can also take a seat, but this arrangement should take advantage of the fact that you already have a relationship with the Linghu family. β
Not really. β
"I'm a martial artist, and I've also practiced spells, although I can't compare with the high-ranking nobles like the county lord, but in the eyes of ordinary people, I am already a great master, and I will be a guest of honor no matter where I am. β
"Looking at the entire Zhaonan Mansion, the strength and status are stronger than mine, and I am afraid that there are not many who are willing to come. β
'Why can't you sit in this position?' β
"Senior Fang!"
"Senpai!"
Several young people stepped forward to salute, revealing their identities one by one, and the words were full of respect for each other.
Ask a little.
These people are all influential figures in the younger generation of Fucheng, and their cultivation is not bad, and they also have their own backgrounds.
Fang Zheng nodded, and there were ripples in his heart again.
'Senior? β
Unknowingly, Fang Mou is over half a hundred years old, and he is not at the same level as young people on the occasion of mixing. β
I don't know if I should celebrate or pity? β
'Young ......'
'It's gone!' β
Tapping on the armrest, Fang Zheng shook his head secretly:
Although Fang Mou is already over half a hundred years old, the Wuwu Martial Master can live for more than a hundred years, and there are still decades to live in the future, so it can only be said that he is middle-aged. β
However, even if it is leak-free, it doesn't seem to be many who live past a hundred years old, and the leak-free realm only slows down the exhaustion of the essence of the physical body, not that it will not be old, and after the age of sixty, it will also retire from the peak of the physical body. β
Now that I am in my fifties, I am not a few years away from my peak age, and the later I break through, the later I can't be too lax. β
At this moment, a shout from outside the door brought him back to his senses.
"The Pure Yang Palace Mound Road has grown!"
As soon as the voice fell, there was an uproar around him, and many whispers of surprise and ecstasy reached his eardrums.
"Daoist Qiu?"
"This one is here?"
"The fox family has a big face!"
"You don't know this, Linghu Changping of the Linghu family is married to the Tianzhi Fairy of the Pure Yang Palace, Linghu Changping is not welcomed in the Linghu family, this time Qiu Dao Chang came over, I'm afraid there is a lively look."
"Daoist Qiu!" Linghu Mingquan stood up from the main seat, a trace of panic flashed on his face, and then hurriedly greeted him:
"I didn't expect you to come here today, the famous spring is far away, and the mansion is really full of splendor!"
"You're welcome." Qiu Daochang's real name is Qiu Lingju, and he is the elder of the Pure Yang Palace, and his status is second only to the palace master.
Of course.
There are also two Supreme Elders above the palace master of the Pure Yang Palace, but they are special cases and have long been out of the palace's affairs.
"Please!"
Linghu Mingquan stretched out his hand and signaled:
"Chief Qiu, please take a seat."
Fang Zheng and the others had also gotten up and saluted the Daoist Dao Leader of the Dao Bone Immortal Wind, as if they had seen each other.
Behind Qiu Daochang, two young people, a man and a woman, were closely followed, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, which could be described as a couple.
Linghu Changping pulled Luo Xian and came to Fang Zheng to salute:
"Changping has seen my uncle!"
"Luo Xian has seen Senior Fang."
"Okay, okay, hurry up." Fang smiled with kindness on the front, and stretched out his hand to raise it falsely:
"A talented woman, a match made in heaven, Qiu Cicada heard about your family affairs, but she was happy for a long time."
"Changping hasn't seen my aunt for a long time, so I have time to visit him." Linghu Changping nodded, and said:
"Uncle is here, can I go to my little nephew's residence and sit down?"
"This ......" Fang Fang hesitated:
"I'm afraid I don't have time."
"I see." Ling Hu Chang was calm:
"When I have some time, my little nephew will take Luoxian to visit my uncle and aunt in Gu'an County."
"Okay."
Fang Zheng nodded:
"Welcome."
Seeing off this pair of young people, Fang Zheng sighed silently.
This made Hu Changping seem to have a modest attitude, but in fact, he was sharp, and when he heard that he didn't plan to go to his residence, he knew that he couldn't win over, and his attitude was instantly cold.
Really!
The eldest brother can't do things, but he doesn't look at people badly, and this young man is afraid that he is not a good character.
In the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the fox family to be stable.
Fortunately, Linghu Qiucian once took care of him, and finally gave some face to his uncle.
You don't see it.
Linghu Changping and his wife Luoxian almost didn't have a good face for the rest of the Linghu family.
"Ladies and gentlemen."
"As the saying goes, the country can't be without a king for a day, the family can't be without an owner for a day, my father went to the East China Sea, it has been more than two years, and it is expected that my father will be able to return with a full load, but family affairs need someone to preside over after all."
Linghu Mingquan hugged his fists and bowed to everyone:
"The famous spring is not talented, and the elders and stewards of the family have to recommend and discuss, and take the position of the head of the family for the time being."
"Big brother."
As soon as his voice fell, a person in the audience spoke:
"Your grade is not young, and recently you have been boiling soup and medicine every day to nourish your body, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to be the head of the house."
"It's not that I'm questioning Big Brother's ability, I'm worried about your body."
The person who spoke was Linghu Changping's second uncle, although he was also Linghu Mingquan's younger brother, but he was not the same mother.
"Although Mingquan is in poor health, he has to do it for the sake of the fox family." Linghu Mingquan's face was slightly gloomy, and he said:
"How?"
"Fifth brother wants this position?"
"Uncle!" Someone spoke:
"Your health is not good, and your cultivation is not high, if the position of the head of the family lets you sit, won't you let others laugh at you, saying that we can't even choose a decent person for the fox family?"
"Presumptuous!"
"Bold!"
This person spoke so unceremoniously that it immediately caused a series of angry rebukes, and some people even jumped out and shouted:
"Little Qizi, do you dare to say that about my father, we are really good bullies, and we have the ability to come out and fight alone?"
"I'm afraid you won't make it?"
The man who spoke also jumped out, and was about to fight.
"Stop!"
Ling Hu Mingquan trembled with anger, and shouted:
"Stop it for me, what kind of system?"
"What a system!"
Today was the day he was elected head of the house, and he feasted many of the city's fame, and it turned out to be a farce.
"Old Five!"
He turned and spoke:
"The choice of me as the head of the family was discussed by all the family members, why, you don't want to admit it now?"
"Big brother."
Old Five's complexion change:
"I didn't know about the sudden deterioration of your body, I just cared about you, and I didn't mean anything else."
"Humph!"
Ling Hu Mingquan snorted coldly:
"I know my body, don't care!"
"Uncle." Linghu Changping stood up at the right time and arched his hand:
"Changping was not there when he chose the head of the family, and as a junior, Changping didn't dare to say much, but there are many elders in the family, and in terms of cultivation, fame and even physical condition, the uncle seems to be not the best candidate for the head of the family."
"Of course."
He said politely:
"The little nephew doesn't mean anything else, it's just curiosity to ask."
Curious?
Don't ask at other times, but choose to ask when so many outsiders are present, you are slapping in the face!
Ling Hu Mingquan's face turned pale.
Everyone in the audience also had different expressions, some with solemn faces, and more with playful expressions.
For them, today's farce of the Linghu family is like a good show, or the kind that doesn't require money.
They don't mix and don't intend to play round.
"Changping."
Linghu Mingquan glanced at Qiu Daochang, took a deep breath, and said slowly:
"The head of the family doesn't have to be strong enough, there are other requirements, otherwise whoever is powerful is on whom, how can there be any rules?"
"I don't believe you asked Daoist Qiu, is the position of the palace master of the Pure Yang Palace out of the way?"
Qiu Daochang's eyes moved slightly, and then he nodded slowly:
"That's right."
"Fighting, killing, and killing is not the right way, because the palace master has too many things to deal with, but it will drag down the progress of cultivation, so the palace master will choose to do it if he has no hope of getting closer."
"That's what Dao Chang said." Linghu Mingquan handed over:
"Mingquan can't do anything else, but he moved to Fucheng with his father, and he knows the Linghu family's industry well, if he changes to the position of the head of the family, I'm afraid I don't know how to deal with the shopkeepers."
"Changping, don't worry, even if I become the head of the family, what should be yours is still yours, and it will never change."
"Big Uncle is too careful."
Linghu Changping lowered his head:
"I'm just curious, by the way......, I don't know how many years will the uncle, the head of the family, be in office?"
"It's not going to be in front of it all the time, is it?"
Linghu Mingquan's face turned dark.
He now understands that the old May 1st gang is not trying to take away his position as the head of the family.
You can't take it away.
At present, most of the Linghu family's property is in his hands, and the shopkeepers have no intention of moving the owner.
but
Not necessarily in a few years!
Now everyone can see that Ling Hu Changping has a great future, and he is by no means comparable to his old age.
More and more people will come to him in the future.
This time, what he asked for was not the position of the current head of the family, but the future, and limited the term of office of Linghu Mingquan.
"Uncle."
Linghu Changping looked at Fang Zheng and arched his hand:
"The uncle's physical condition is not very good, and the affairs of the head of the family are even more tedious, so it is only right to choose after a few years."
"Do you think so?"
β¦β¦
Fang Zheng sighed lightly in his heart.
"Changping's words are not false."
"But who is the head of the family, it doesn't matter what outsiders say, it still needs to be discussed by the fox family themselves."
As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Linghu Mingquan.
This time, Fox Mingquan can make a kind of family shopkeeper and clan elder recognize himself, and he can do the same next time.
But if it is said that if you become the head of the family, you will be the head of the family for the rest of your life, and today Ling Hu Changping and others will definitely not agree.
Alas!
In a few years, Linghu Changping will definitely be in trouble, and the Linghu family is afraid that it will be difficult to be peaceful in the past few years.
Everyone is on the side, and it is difficult to make progress in business.
"Yes."
Ling Hu Mingquan's face stiffened, and he nodded slowly.
This statement fell.
The atmosphere in the stadium was suddenly relaxed, the lobby was full of laughter again, and a turmoil quietly dissipated.
Night.
Linghu Mingquan appeared in Fangzheng's room with a brocade box in his hand.
"Da ......"
The brocade box opens.
A thousand-year-old blood purifying lotus sealed with a Xuanbing talisman appeared in front of him, and the lines like blood were particularly eye-catching.
"This thing is kept for the time being."
Founder Opening:
"Within three or five years, if my father-in-law comes back, he will definitely send it back, and if it is ......, Fang may use it for himself."
"Take it." Linghu Mingquan waved his hand:
"Changping's wild seed is not dead to the position of the head of the family, if he becomes the head of the house, this thing will cheapen him for nothing."
"Give it to him,"
"It's better to give it to you!"
Fang Zheng was speechless.
My eldest brother has lived for so many years, why is his heart still as naΓ―ve as a child sometimes.
"Big brother."
After thinking about it, he spoke slowly:
"You can't write two Linghu with one stroke, Changping is also a member of the Linghu family, and he has a great future......"
"Peng!"
Ling Hu Mingquan shot the case, and his eyes widened angrily:
"Why, even you don't believe that I am qualified to be the head of the family?"
"You wait, I can be elected as the head of the family by all the shopkeepers and clan elders this time, and I can do the same next time."
Fang Zheng opened his mouth, but shook his head without saying a word.
He lowered his head to look at the Millennium Pure Blood Lotus, which was the main material for refining the Three Treasure Pills, and it was very rare.
Just buy the other two elixirs, and you can get two kinds of Three Treasure Pills.
Sam Bao Dan,
It can help the Leakless Martial Master and the Grand Mage to open the spiritual aperture and break through the realm.
Just right.
In Jiuyuanzi's memory, there was one of the elixirs, so that only the last elixir was left.
Sambaodan is not difficult to refine.
The difficulty is that elixirs are rare.
'Now that he is still some distance away from the Ninth Heavenly Consummation of the Vowel Thunder Law, he can take this opportunity to seek the location of the third elixir, and it is more than enough for a thousand-year-old pure blood lotus to be divided into two parts, even if his father-in-law comes back, it should be no problem to divide half from him. β
'Good! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Day 2.
Fang Zheng went to meet the county lord of Qingyuan.
"Young Master Fang, the county lord doesn't want to see you."
Xiaocui, the personal maid beside the county lord, walked out of the mansion and shrugged her shoulders and said:
"Please go back."
"Huh?" Boxy Eyebrows:
"Little Cui girl, do you know why?"
"The slave doesn't know." Xiao Cui shook her head and said:
"However, the county lord mentioned that the Luhua Fairy and Miss Xiao Qian of the Luofu Immortal Sect are also dead, and she is very sad."
οΌ
"Understood."
Founder's Hands:
"Please return to the county lord, Fang Mou is also very sorry for the murder of the disciples of the Luofu Immortal Sect."
"Farewell!"
