Chapter 52: The Shi Family Worships
The territory near Liangdu is controlled by three major families, namely the "Sun Family", the "Shi Family" and the "Shangguan Family".
For hundreds of years, the three families have watched and helped each other, and the people of the clan have married each other, and the relationship is very harmonious. The territory of the three forces is also intertwined, and they have always been peaceful.
Just after the previous patriarch of the Shi family disappeared, the patriarch of the Sun family unexpectedly broke through and became a Linglan Realm monk.
At that time, many immortal cultivators went to congratulate, and the Shi family also received an invitation, although Shi Qiulan was young, as the core figure of the clan, he still prepared a generous gift, and personally brought the head of the family and several other people to the door to congratulate.
After the patriarch of the Sun family broke through the Linglan realm, he had no intention of taking care of the family affairs, so he gave up the position of patriarch to the current patriarch Sun Qia, and he devoted himself to cultivation.
As the saying goes, the Sun family has an extra Linglan Realm monk out of thin air, but the Shi family is the patriarch who has fallen, and only one Linglan Realm ancestor and a young monk Shi Qiulan are left, and they are facing a dark period in the history of the Shi family, whose strength is relatively weak.
The trouble is that this Sun Cha is still an ambitious master, and after taking office, he changed his previous friendly posture and instructed the gang forces under the control of the family to constantly attack and encroach on the Shi family's gang sphere of influence.
Fortunately, although there are not many monks in the Shi family, the ancestor still exists, and Sun Qia does not dare to go too far, although he has lost some territory, but the overall impact is not too great.
However, the size of the territory depends on the production of spiritual objects.
And Shi Qiulan was a little older, and he was not angry, so he made an appointment with the Shangguan patriarch Qi to find Sun Qia to theorize.
But he didn't want that Sun Cha to be arrogant and rude, and he didn't even see him, so he said that he was in retreat. He only sent someone to spread the word, saying that the gang fight was a mortal matter, and he would not bother with it, and asked the monks of the Shi family and the Shangguan family not to interfere arbitrarily.
Shi Qiulan was extremely annoyed, and immediately organized the gang forces to fight back after coming back, and after counterattacking a few times, he fought back a lot of territory.
Unexpectedly, instead of Sun Cha's plan, the Sun family pumped most of the gang forces to the vicinity of Xiaosong Mountain, completely surrounding the entire Xiaosong Mountain in the Sun family's sphere of influence.
This Xiaosong Mountain was originally a barren mountain given to the Shi family by the royal family hundreds of years ago, and it was just an ordinary mountain bag like a steamed bun. At most, it is a little bigger than Mulberry Mountain, but there is no aura and no special products on the mountain.
After the Shi family got it, it was deserted, and later, because there were too many people in the clan, this neighborhood was used as a base for the mortals in the clan.
After hundreds of years of reproduction, Yamashita developed into a town with a population of tens of thousands.
Shi Qiulan's sister and brother were originally the Xiaosongshan clan.
At the top of Komatsuyama, there is a Komatsuyama annex, which is roughly the same as the Kusangshan Summer Resort, but only important people of the Shi family are eligible to enter and live.
It's just that because Komatsuyama's aura is too poor, almost no monks will live there.
Komatsu Mountain was surrounded by hostile forces, and the local Shi clan people were unlucky, and occasionally went out and could be bullied and beaten by gang forces.
The old man of the Shi family was helpless, so he ran to the head of the family to cry, but the head of the family and his wife couldn't, so they had to come to find their daughter.
Shi Qiulan was in a dilemma, so she could only go to the Sun family again to negotiate and seek a solution, mainly because Shi Jin had also broken through the spiritual realm at that time, and she had a lot of confidence.
This time, Sun Cha met Shi Qiulan in person, and he was very polite.
However, he said that because the feng shui master saw it, he felt that Xiaosong Mountain was very suitable for the Sun family as an ancestral grave place, so he implored the Shi family to resell Xiaosong Mountain to the Sun family, and the Sun family was willing to pay a certain amount of elixir and spirit stone to buy it.
When Shi Qiulan heard this, she was puzzled, the Sun family was willing to buy spiritual objects, which showed that he really wanted to, otherwise he would only say that he would buy it with gold and silver.
But what does the Sun family want this barren mountain to do? She doesn't believe the kind of nonsense of the ancestral tomb of Feng Shui.
Shi Qiulan was shocked and couldn't make a decision, so she had to make a delaying tactic and leave first.
When I came back, I couldn't think of the main point.
If it is another barren mountain, it is nothing to sell it to the Sun family.
But tens of thousands of clansmen live in Xiaosongshan, such a large-scale migration of clansmen, and the sale of Xiaosongshan, this is not intended to be a slap in the face by the Sun family, so how can she, as the patriarch, endure it.
What's more, Shi Qiulan felt that the Sun family had some plans, and she was helpless, so she could only go to consult the ancestor, Shi Wantong heard it, and she was also strange in her heart.
The two of them rushed to the Komatsuyama Annex, and used their divine senses to probe inside and out, but found nothing.
Shi Qiulan did not give up, and ordered the clansmen to dig several deep wells, but the well water was ordinary and nothing special.
Shi Wantong couldn't think of a reason, so he explained that the matter was decided by the patriarch, and returned to retreat.
Now that the Shi family is weak, the Sun family may come over to persecute at any time, if Shen Yun can become the Shi family's worship, so that the Shi family has one more Spirit Silence Realm monk, and the overall strength will rise.
Because the stakes were very high, Shi Qiulan explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail, and then asked Shen Yun to make a decision.
Shen Yun naturally knows what the worship refers to, and in the mortal family, there is also this saying that the worship is equivalent to a retainer general figure, and his status in the clan is extremely high, so he only needs to listen to the patriarch.
Roughly figured out the cause and effect of the matter, I wanted to ask the worship of the Immortal Cultivator family again, is there any difference?
In a blink of an eye, he saw Shi Jin full of pleading, and his heart softened, so he decided to accept it first.
"Well, in that case, I promise. Shen Yun nodded slightly, suddenly thought of something, and said busily, "But I want to live in Sangshan for the time being and accompany my teacher." ”
"Naturally, there is no problem!" Shi Qiulan's heart was full of joy, "Sangshan is only half a day's journey away, and the little sister will arrange for someone to inform Brother Shen if there is something." "All of a sudden, even the self-proclaimed name changed.
"Great, Brother Shen will be his own person in the future. Shi Jin jumped up even more happily and ran to find a teapot to help Shen Yun add water.
Shen Yun smiled lightly, thought about it and asked embarrassedly, "May I ask Miss Shi, what do you want to do?" Although he knew that with Shi Qiulan's sister and brother, it would be impossible for him to push himself into the fire pit, but he had to know his obligations.
Shi Qiulan's beautiful eyes flowed, and she understood in her heart that Shen Yun was looking at Shi Jin's face, and she agreed first without asking anything, and even thought that it was worth befriending, and was about to answer, but Shi Jin answered first.
"Hehe, I know this, I don't usually have to do anything, but if the Shi family encounters anything in danger, I will have to trouble Brother Shen for help. ”
"Yes, it's just that whether Brother Shen makes a move or not, it will still be up to Brother Shen to decide at that time. Shi Qiulan smiled and nodded, and added.
Shen Yun nodded again and again, anyway, the final decision is still in his hands, so there is nothing to worry about.
Seeing that Shi Jin poured the tea, Shi Qiulan patted the storage bag, and a jade like a ring ruler jumped out of it, faintly exuding a milky white luster.
Shi Qiulan stretched out her slender jade finger and pinched it.
Seeing Shen Yun looking at the general with a curious expression, he chuckled and said, "This thing is called the Mi Ling Ruler, which is a magic weapon to test the qualification of the spirit root, I will measure it for Brother Shen...... In addition, the Spiritual Root data needs to be marked on the enshrined token. ”
Shen Yun smiled and nodded, he had no opinion, although he estimated that he was a middle-grade spiritual root, but it was just a blind judgment, and the truth still needed to be measured to know.
What's more, if you're lucky, there may be other spiritual roots with better qualifications.
Stretched out his hand to take the treasure, only to see that this Mi Ling ruler happened to be one foot long, two inches wide and thick, the color was like white jade, crystal clear, and it was cold to the hand.
One side is smooth and clean, and the other side is inlaid with a row of pearl-like round gemstones, there are more than a dozen of them, each of which is different in color.
"These colored beads represent the attributes of the spiritual root, in addition to the five elements, if there is a mutated spiritual root, it can also be detected. ”
After listening to Shi Qiulan's explanation, Shen Yun smiled and nodded, his eyes showing curiosity.
Shi Jin's reminder came from the side: "Brother Shen, this can be done as long as you hold it in the palm of your hand." ”
"Good. Shen Yun replied and held the Mi Ling ruler in his palm.
In a moment, the smoke waves among the several colored beads on it began to flow, and the brilliance flashed in an instant, and Shen Yun's face flashed one after another.
