Pei Renqian devoted himself to cultivation in his early years, and after entering the realm of refining masters at the age of fifty, he eased his mind to marry a wife and have children, and now he is over eighty years old. With the cultivation of the Great Refiner to control the cultivation world of Tongchuan Mansion, Pei Renqi can be described as a master. What's more, the longevity of the Great Refiner can generally be above one hundred and forty years old, and he still has sixty years to live, if nothing else, he will become the second Great Cultivator to enter the Heavenly Master Realm in the six hundred years of Qingyun Pavilion.

It's just that in this way, if Pei Zhongze wants to become the tenth hall owner, I'm afraid he will have to wait patiently for a long time.

Pei Renqian raised his right hand lightly and said, "Although I belong to the same Daomen, I am here in a family temple, but it is different from the side, and please feel free to do it, don't be too restrained." If you and my son are brothers, I will call you a good nephew. You may be seated. ā€

Zhao Ran hurriedly gave a deep salute, and then sat on both sides of Pei Renqi with Pei Zhongze, one left and one right.

Pei Renqi looked at Zhao Ran for a moment, and then spoke: "Listen to my son, the virtuous nephew has never entered the threshold of cultivation, but when I see it today, it is not the case, but what chance does it have?"

Zhao Ran replied: "Since the return of White Horse Mountain, the Promotion Department has closed the altar of ascension in Ye Xue, and the hall master is blessed, and Xiaodao is fortunate to participate. It's just that the result didn't come true, and at that time it was said that the orthodox bone was not completed, but then he was able to practice again, but the essence was not enough, so the progress was not smooth. ā€

Pei Renqian nodded. Stretched out a finger and pointed at Zhao Ran's middle acupoint, Zhao Ran had already had a few experiences, and knew that the external appearance of his own merit cultivation was no different from the true power of the Daomen, so he was not afraid of being seen through, and let Pei Ren's true power enter the body to explore.

After a moment, Pei Renqian withdrew his finger. Xiang Zhao Ran said: "The virtuous nephew's root bone has not been corrected, but his qualifications are excellent, and the sea of qi is also very solid, as long as the difficulty of the root bone is solved, the future achievements can be expected." In such a situation as a virtuous nephew, there is also a precedent for the Daomen, Elder He of Chengdu Kuixing Pavilion is the same as you, and now he has also entered the realm of refiners, so the virtuous nephew must not be discouraged. ā€

Zhao Ran smiled: "Yes." I know that the path of cultivation is by no means smooth and easy, and there are many ups and downs and tribulations. Besides, I am a common person, I have no immortal fate, and now I can be among them, I don't know how many people envy me, how can I not be satisfied?"

Pei Ren said with a pinch of his head: "With this indifferent heart, it is natural." ā€

Chat with Zhao Ran for a few words. Pei Renqian turned his head again and asked Pei Zhongze about the details of the investigation of the case this time, and sighed after listening: "In the early years, I heard the name of Senior Brother Zuo of Hengfu Pavilion. He entered the mage realm at the age of thirty, and he is really a rare talent. It's just that I haven't heard from him again, and I can't imagine wandering in the realm of the great mage so far, and I think it's also because of the early years of Taishun, a peck and a drink, and the front edge is doomed. Ninety years old. If he didn't go to the next level, it would be the end, no wonder he had this thought, and finally ended up like this. Nakazawa, you have to learn from it. ā€

Pei Zhongze bowed his head and responded.

Pei Renqi said to Zhao Ran again: "The case of Zhongyangshan has been solved. The virtuous nephew has helped a lot, I intend to rise to the altar again, and help the virtuous nephew to correct the bones, I don't know what the virtuous nephew wants?"

The Scattered Bone Pill is extremely precious, not inferior to the Longevity Pill, Zhao Ran knows that this is actually Pei Ren's return for his son's kindness to save the people, and the so-called help to solve the case is just a pretense. However, taking the Orthopaedic Pill for the second time will be more painful than the first time, it is really a very torturous thing, and the risk is not small, if you are not careful, you may even lose your life, so Pei Renqian has to formally seek Zhao Ran's opinion.

Zhao Ran had already considered this, so he agreed without hesitation. He had taken it once and knew the difficulty, but compared to others, his advantage was that he already had a cultivation foundation, and his entry was not bad, and his tolerance for pain was not comparable to others. For example, Yu Zhiyuan, Zhao Ran's fellow senior brother took the Scattered Bone Pill three times in a row, and he didn't have any cultivation on his body, and every time he was completely supported by great perseverance, the danger was naturally much higher than that of Zhao Ran, who had mana, so Zhao Ran was not very worried about this issue.

After the negotiation was roughly agreed, Pei Renqian said no more, and Pei Zhongze took Zhao Ran back to the hall to rest.

Later, Pei Zhongze took Zhao Ran to participate in a meeting of the elders of Qingyun Pavilion, mainly to discuss the case of the Lu family's destruction in Zhongyang Mountain. Those who came to participate in the discussion were a few elders from Qingyun Pavilion who did not go out, most of them were from the Pei family, and there were two elders with foreign surnames who were also in-laws of the Pei family, Zhao Ran really saw what a "strong family temple" was, and there were so many alchemists and great mages gathered in the clan, no wonder the Pei family was able to command the land of the house. Compared with the Wu family of Zhongyang Mountain that Zhao Ran has seen, known as a family of cultivators, there are only three or so monks, and they are all below the yellow crown, compared with the Wu family and the Lu family, the Pei family can really be described as a monster like a behemoth.

There are a few things that are decided in the Council of Elders.

The first is to spread the news of the case all over Tongchuan Mansion to warn the twenty-three cultivation sects and scattered cultivators in Tongchuan Mansion, and at the same time report it to the Jade Emperor Pavilion.

The second is to count and dispose of the goods of Zuo Yunfeng and Huang Tengsong's master and apprentice, and the 6,000 taels of gold ingots, 40,000 taels of silver ingots and half a box of jewels and gold and jade handed over by Pei Zhongze were all put into the treasury of Qingyun Pavilion. Zhao Ran, who was listening, was so envious in his heart, and secretly dreamed, thinking about how he would make money if he had the opportunity to dominate the mansion in the future.

The third is to transfer Zuo Yunfeng and Huang Tengsong's master and apprentice to the Hengfu Hall in Boryeong Mansion. After all, the master and apprentice were expelled from the mountain by the Hengfu Pavilion, and they are considered the old people of the Hengfu Pavilion, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and they have to return the person to the Hengfu Pavilion no matter what. Of course, Qingyunguan also reported the case to Hengfuguan, and attached the disposal of Jian yƬ - lifelong imprisonment. As for whether the Hengfu Pavilion will execute the master and apprentice, it is none of the business of the Qingyun Pavilion, but it must not put people down the mountain again.

The fourth thing is Zhao Ran's matter. In order to reward the merits, Qingyun Pavilion is ready to raise the altar and raise the door for Zhao Ran, and then straighten the bones. The elders knew the root of this matter, so they quickly settled down and prepared to hold the ascension ceremony on the morning of the second day.

That night, Zhao Ran stayed in the Qingyun Pavilion and occupied a room in Pei Zhongze's courtyard. According to the way of hospitality, Pei Zhongze originally planned to sleep with Zhao Ran, but Zhao Ran politely declined, and said that he would go into meditation at night to prepare for the ascension ceremony on the second day. What are you kidding, Zhao Ran has never had the habit of sleeping with other men.

Just as he was about to fall into silence, suddenly a white light flashed, but it was a communication talisman.

The flying talisman came from the Xianjun Garden of Wuhou Mountain, but it was Rong Niang who told him that he had already begun to renovate the garden. Rong Niang's communication also has a repair plan for the Xuanchang in front of the gate, replacing all the cracks and broken bricks in the entire Xuanchang, and it is expected to recruit 500 people at the foot of the mountain, with a construction period of one month, and 1,200 taels of silver. She asked Zhao Ran if there were any good construction or requirements so that adjustments could be made before the start of construction.

Zhao Ran's cheeks twitched, and he was speechless for a long time. Well, just the maintenance of a front door is going to make such a big noise, this is the rhythm of the loser!

Zhao Ran thought about it, and hurriedly took out a flying talisman and inscribed his meaning in it. He very tactfully improved Rong Niang's maintenance plan, saying that it was "improvement", but in fact it was equivalent to a complete overthrow. He described a wonderful picture to Rong Niang, the large lawn in front of the gate, full of wildflowers, birds roaming and singing in the lawn, and bees and butterflies dancing among the stamens.

The reason why Zhao Ran made such a design is completely to save money. The movement of the red scarf wrestler in the Xuan field, there are a lot of broken boulders, and there are even many cracks that extend out, if they are replaced, almost half of them will be replaced! And quarrying, grinding stones, transporting stones, plus leveling the site, how much manpower is needed? How much does it cost? Zhao Ran is experienced, and he knows that 1,200 taels of silver may not be enough!

The best way is to fill the soil directly on it, put a layer of soil on it, level it a little, and then transplant some flowers and shrubs, and all the problems are solved. Zhao Ran predicts that if Rong Niang adopts his advice, it will be enough for a hundred people to work for half a month, and the cost can drop by ninety!

Half an hour after the flying talisman was issued, Rong Niang's second flying talisman came. Rong Niang was very interested in Zhao Ran's construction, and felt that the picture depicted by Zhao Ran was extremely intoxicating, and decided to adopt it. In the end, Rong Niang said that since the name of Xianjun Garden was given by her, she would give Zhao Ran the naming right of this lawn, and let Zhao Ran think of a name.

Zhao Ran breathed a long sigh of relief, and did not hesitate to send a message back: South Lawn. (To be continued......)
