Chapter 46: Trouble
The person of the Zhu family who greeted the seven people was named Zhu Zhou, his body was slightly blessed, and he looked very kind, but his cultivation was not weak, but he was practicing qi at the eighth level.
The two people accompanying him were also monks of the seventh layer in the late stage of Qi training, named Zhu Yang and Zhu Jiayu.
There are more than ten people in the Zhu family who are in the late stage of Qi cultivation, that is, the elders of the Zhu family.
Wang Yuan and several people entered the formation, were greeted by the three of them, and entered a private room.
It's just that Zhu Zhou and the three of them, although they were very polite to Wang Yuan and the others, when they looked at Zhu Shou, they were not very eager, and even vaguely disgusted.
"Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Wang, come this time, don't worry, stay in my Zhu family for a few days first, and take a look at the scenery of this green Luzhou place. ”
Zhu Zhou said politely, and he was not in a hurry to say the key to this trip.
Zhao Peng had a smile on his face and was very polite:
"Everything is up to Senior Brother Zhu, I finally have time to come out, so naturally I want to rest for a few days, so as not to affect the recent incident. ”
Zhu Zhou also nodded, and a bitter smile appeared on his face, and said:
"Indeed, recently, the Demon Cultivators of the Patriotic Nation have been running around, and after several of my Zhu family's disciples went out, there has been no more information, and it seems that there is more luck and less luck. In addition, there have been a few snake demons in the late stage of Qi cultivation in Luluzhou recently, which has caused the output of our Zhu family's spiritual materials to plummet, but it is in a hurry. ”
"Oh, the snake demon in the late stage of Qi cultivation shouldn't be a big problem. ”
Wang Yuan smiled slightly and asked.
"Well, that's a bit of a shame to say. ”
Zhu Jiayu answered on the side and explained in a low voice.
Zhu Zhou and the others did not stop them.
It turned out that the Zhu family had encountered other things recently, in addition to the fact that it was difficult to sell spiritual materials due to the invasion of the Patriotic Demon Sect.
For example, in the depths of the green reed island occupied by the Zhu family here, it connects the Canghe River in the south, and in this Canghe River, I don't know when a group of snakes and monsters will come from time to time.
In the past few years, there have been thirty or forty monks of the Zhu family who have been killed and injured because of this.
You must know that the Zhu family itself is only four or five hundred people.
The casualties were staggering.
As a result, the blue water jade and pothos flowers collected by the Zhu family were nearly fifty percent less.
When Wang Yuan and the seven people heard this, they were quite helpless after glancing at each other.
In the task hall of the sect, there is also this task, and even when the group came, the predecessors of the sect's Ning Yuan period also mentioned a similar situation.
But to help the Zhu family extinguish the task of snake demon beasts, a few people did not accept it.
This task may seem simple, but it is actually difficult.
Snake demon beasts, coming from the Canghe River, should be partial water attribute and earth attribute. As soon as this monster encounters an enemy and can't defeat it, it will enter the river.
When the time comes, how to kill?
When Wang Yuanqi left, it didn't take long for them to come back again.
This task can only be said to have completed one-fifth, just to drive away, demon beasts, after the hard work of such a few people, the harvest of the task is terrible, no one wants to take it.
This could not be said explicitly, and Wang Yuan and the seven people skipped it tacitly.
After chatting for a while, Zhu Zhou took the seven of them to a separate courtyard to rest.
And Zhu Shou said goodbye and went to meet the elders of the clan.
This is common sense, and Wang Yuanliu has no opinion.
In the courtyard.
After Zhu Zhou and the three left, Wang Yuan and the six began to arrange their own formations.
In this Zhu family, even if it is essentially useless to arrange a defensive formation, a few people will subconsciously do so.
After the set-up, the six of them sat around a room.
"How do you feel about coming to the Zhu family this time?"
Zhao Peng asked.
Yao Qing shook his head:
"There's no problem, I have seen a lot of people from the Zhu family along the way, but there is no difference from the people of other families I have seen, and I don't believe it when I say that there is collusion with the Demon Dao Sect. ”
"I think so. ”
Wang Yuan and Chen Yang both chimed in.
Others agree similarly.
But it seems that this is the case, but you should be careful.
There's nothing wrong with being careful.
......
Zhu family.
Zhu Tang is the place where the Zhu family deliberates. After settling the seven people of Wang Yuan, the eleven late stage Qi cultivation cultivators of the Zhu family all gathered here.
And on the upper position, an old man with gray hair exuded a strong spiritual pressure.
This spiritual pressure emanated, and the rest of the people all felt a heavy pressure.
Long.
Zhu Changming opened his eyes and glanced around, and the rest of the people were all upright and respectful.
"Thirteen and twelve, the two of them are responsible for planting pothos flowers, and it doesn't matter if they don't come. Zhu Changming's tone was very flat, no sadness or joy:
"Call everyone this time, everyone should know the matter, the Qingyun Sect sent a group of seven people to come to the Zhu family to collect offerings, but this collection of offerings is fake, and it is true to come to investigate the situation. ”
As soon as these words fell, the expressions of many late-stage Qi cultivators present changed slightly.
Zhu Changming didn't seem to see it, and continued:
"My Zhu family is a descendant of the Qingyun Sect, and if there is a small fight, it will naturally be fine, and the sect will not send Daoists from the Ning Yuan Period to come, otherwise, who can stop it. ”
The rest of the Qi cultivation period cultivators were dumbfounded.
Zhu Changming snorted coldly and said:
"Many of you want to sit in my position, and I know that many people have been involved with the Demon Sect over the years, and even have deals, and I don't think this happened. In order to exchange for more spirit stone cultivation, I have acquiesced in these things, and if the Zhu family wants to pass it on, it really needs a new Ning Yuan Period. ”
When the rest heard this, their hearts pounded.
Many people are careful about this, and not many people in the family know about it, but now it seems that it is not necessarily.
Perhaps, it's just that the patriarch doesn't want to deal with it.
Zhu Changming glanced around, his expression became solemn, and said:
"But now, since the Qingyun Sect has sent someone here, then all things related to the Demon Sect have stopped, I don't want to be found out by the sect that there is a problem, even if I lose Lingtian, I will not hesitate to do it. As long as there are people in my Zhu family, there is still hope for the rise, and the Zhu family has been broken for more than 300 years, and it was also rebuilt because of my advanced Ning Yuan. But if the Patriotic Demon Sect is involved, and the Qingyun Sect really sends someone here, the family will be wiped out because of you. ”
Call!
After saying this, Zhu Changming exhaled lightly.
"Yes, disciple remember. ”
The eleven late-stage Qi cultivation cultivators stood up and replied respectfully.
Zhu Changming waved his hand, and the Qi cultivation period cultivators all turned around and left.
After the others left, Zhu Changming closed his eyes extremely tiredly, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his heart, the Zhu family has nearly 100 late-stage Qi cultivation cultivators over the years, but there are few who can really cultivate and understand the situation.
"The Zhu family is okay for the time being, not because of how important they are, but because I exchanged the lives of my wife and children for it, but unfortunately there are few descendants in the family who can catch their eyes, and they compete for fame and fortune in the family every day, which is really unbearable. ”
Zhu Changming thought about it, and suddenly remembered that the junior of the family he saw a few days ago, although he was only a lower spiritual root, he had a good temperament, and he practiced penance every day, and he still looked a little good.
"It's time to prepare for the family's future. ”
Zhu Changming's body shook and disappeared.
