Chapter XXXVIII
Following his father back home, Lu Wenen was a little excited in his heart.
He had never seen such a big bug, and in front of Weiwen's little sister, he had to maintain the image of his brother, but when he returned home, facing his grandmother, he wanted to share what he had seen today.
But as soon as he returned home, he saw that his grandmother Lu Ranting was packing up and sorting out her magic weapons, and the loose robe on her body was gone, and it had become a short-cut outfit that was more suitable for action.
Although Lu Ranting is seventy-three years old this year, his appearance is still just that of a young woman with a little wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
The three sisters of the Lu family dynasty have good looks, and Lu Ranting is quite similar to her mother Lu Xiachao. Sometimes when Lu Qing was floating on Yuyan Mountain, when he occasionally saw Lu Ranting, he would also think of his dead eldest daughter.
Five years ago, Lu Ranting was in charge of working with Lu Chaojun as the family's ninth-level Qi cultivation cultivator, stationed in Pingyao County.
This job is rotated, although the spiritual veins in Pingyao County are second-order, but because they are artificially built, they are much worse than those on Yuyan Mountain, and the Lu family has only one-third of the caves that can use the artificial spiritual veins in Pingyao County, which cannot meet the cultivation of monks. Lu Ranting's own cultivation can also stimulate the aura in the spirit stone, which is a consumption.
Although Lu Ranting no longer has the opportunity to be promoted to the foundation building period, his cultivation still has to be maintained. This path, if you don't advance against the current, you will retreat, and if you don't cultivate well, let alone progress, you can't even maintain your realm.
Especially for monks who are old and their qi and blood are beginning to decay, if they give up cultivation, their qi and blood will decay faster, and their realm will regress faster.
Of course, let the family cultivator take on this kind of work, and the spirit stones needed for cultivation will definitely be subsidized by the family, otherwise this kind of work that will already delay cultivation, and no one will be willing to do it.
Two years ago, Lu Ranting returned to Yuyan Mountain, except for a trip to Qingfeng Gate and picked up Xiao Wenen, she spent almost all of her time on self-cultivation.
It's just that now it's work again.
When Lu Mingcheng saw this scene, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Mother, does the family have a task?"
"Hmm. Lu Ranting glanced at Lu Mingcheng lightly, she was actually quite disappointed that her son did not have a spiritual root, but after Wen En was determined to be a second spiritual root, this disappointment was much smaller.
Rubbing Xiao Wenen's head, Lu Ranting said to her son: "The family has a task and wants me to go to Anling." ”
Before Lu Mingcheng could speak, Wen En heard that his grandmother was leaving, so he hurriedly asked, "Grandmother, how long are you going?"
"A few months, if it's fast. Lu Ranting said with a smile, but there was a hint of worry in the corners of her eyes.
Looking at the sky, she went to Anling City this time with a very important task.
The son didn't feel anything, but Wen En was very young, and his mind was pure but more sensitive: "Grandmother, is there any danger?"
Lu Ranting didn't want her family to worry, but then she thought about it, Wen En was already ten years old, and now he was a monk in the Qi refining period, and he would inevitably step into the immortal cultivation world in the future, and there were some things that he couldn't be treated too much as a child.
So, she squatted down and looked at Lu Wenen's perspective: "Maybe." ”
"Yes...... Why don't you go?"
Lu Ranting shook her head and said: "Provide us with shelter and help us cultivate, these are all provided by the family, and Xiao Wenen, you can enter the Qingfeng Gate, and the family has used a lot of resources to do it." People must not forget their roots, they cannot be rootless, and when the family is in need, our monks must also come forward. Wen En, although you are in the sect, you must also remember that you are a child of the Lu family and have to fight for the Lu family. ”
These words can be regarded as a kind of inheritance.
Her mother had told her that she had seen her die in battle when Zhao came to her door, and now she had told her grandson that she had said it before she went out on a mission.
Since the ancestor was seriously injured and retreated, and he didn't know his life and death, the five generations of the Lu family have been hard to stand up in hardships and hardships, and in the successive catastrophes. Without these, where would the descendants of the current family come from to the current environment? No matter how the Lu family declines, it is far better than living a casual life outside.
What's more, in the past five years, she has also witnessed the prosperity of the family.
In her vein, none of the children are particularly competitive, they are all mediocre, but this grandson has shown talent.
She is content and aware of this: if something happens to her, she hopes that this inheritance will not be broken.
Although Xiao Wenen has become a monk in the sect and has been in the sect all the year round, because of this, she hopes that Xiao Wenen will not forget her roots.
"I see, Grandmother. ”
"Then I'm leaving. ”
"Mother, be careful. ”
Looking at her son, Lu Ranting nodded slowly: "I have measure." ”
......
Anling City, the capital of Anling County and the largest city in the county, is far richer and more prosperous than Pingyao County.
In the past, this city was the focus of Qingfengmen's rule over the whole county, and after Lu Qing's rise, the Lu family also had a lot of interests here, because of him, a Jindan monk, Qingfengmen also had to make many concessions.
But after Lu Qing was seriously injured and retreated, in less than ten years, the Lu family's interests in Anling City had shrunk to the point of not being true. Anling City has returned to the control of Qingfengmen, and the Zhao family has devoured many of their interests.
Up to now, the Lu family has almost no control over Anling City, and the Zhao family is the second largest force in Anling City after Qingfeng Gate.
Therefore, when Lu Ranting went all the way to Anling City, she was careful again and again, not wanting to show her traces and be discovered.
And the task she undertook was related to the Tsukidan formula newly mastered by the family.
When she heard the patriarch's uncle say that the family now has a Tsukidan formula, she was surprised and couldn't believe it, but her heart was also full of joy.
The family has a formula, which means that in the future, as long as there is a third-order alchemist and materials, they will be able to refine the Zhuji Dan by themselves, which is of great strategic significance.
Of course, the Tsukidan formula is not useful for the current family.
Including Tsukidan, all kinds of precious and powerful Danfang are rarely circulated in the market, because of the actions of various forces in order to seek monopoly benefits.
However, with the current situation of the family, they are not qualified to seek a monopoly of resources for the sake of not proliferating the secret of the Tsukidan formula.
Instead of holding it in your hand, it is better to exchange it for the interests of the serious.
It's just that this recipe is not so simple to sell.
Cultivating immortals and cultivating immortals, looking tall, one by one, the monks are like masters, and they are immortal. But in such a cruel competition in the world of immortal cultivation, there are not too many murders, cheating, cheating, and even some more immoral things.
Lu Ranting went to Anling City to build an outpost.
