In the blink of an eye, the New Year's Day has passed, and the Spring Festival in 1999 is approaching, in addition to going to work and socializing, Lao Mai spends all his time on cultivation.

In the huge villa, he has a two-story single-story building like the old Taoist Mu Qingzi, and the wooden sign of "Seven Ancestral Mansions" is nailed in front of the building.

At this point, Lao Mai seems to be a member of the Xiuzhen Sect, in front of Ah Guang and a group of low-level disciples and subordinates who have always been respectful, he lives and moves his body, like a majestic scene, plus he was born as a government official and is used to being a leader, and there is an unfathomable style.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, I would like to receive the order of the sect master, and the direct family members of the Jinshi Sect have rushed back to the sect headquarters from all over the country.

There were hundreds of people who came back for a while, and the other villas except Lao Daomu Qingzi and Lao Mai Mansion were full.

Lao Mai also returned to the old house in the town first, spent Chinese New Year's Eve night with his sister's family, and came out to the villa villa on the afternoon of the first day Chinese New Year's Eve of the new year

On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, in the main hall of the main building of the largest villa, the floor was full of people from the Jinshi Sect, and the disciples who were familiar with each other were talking and laughing quietly, exchanging their respective cultivation experiences and interesting stories about entering the world.

The table at the top is a few minutes apart, sitting the six ancestors of the sect, Mu Qingzi and the seven ancestors of Xinzha, Lao Mai, and the rest of the hundreds of tables at the bottom, and the disciples of the sect sit opposite each other in chronological order, leaving an aisle in the middle.

Although Mu Qingzi Lao Dao was born in the pre-Qing era, he has been in the sect for a long time, advocating the traditional meal system before the Ming Dynasty, abandoning the vulgar eating method of a large round table full of Han people, so on the occasion of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner of the sect, it is still a pattern of one person and a few, sitting cross-kneeled on a futon.

Mu Qingzi's popular saying about Lao Mai's description of the meal system and the meal system is that the Westerners learned the meal system from the Ming Dynasty, and the foreign devils became civilized people, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains.

Lao Daomu Qingzi has three disciples in the world, namely the third, fourth, and fifth disciples, in fact, there were five people, the eldest and the second failed to break through to the foundation building period, and died in more than nineties.

The third child is pure metal, although he has not awakened the inheritance of exercises, but he has also cultivated to the early stage of foundation building, nearly 100 years old, and his face is still like more than sixty years.

There are also the four or five disciples that Lao Dao later received, all of whom are in their fifties and sixties, not pure attribute people, who have cultivated to the ninth stage of qi refining, that is, the late stage of fusion, and have not yet reached the peak of the Great Perfection, and are currently the chief and vice president of the Jinshi Industry Group, managing various industries in the secular world, and providing cultivation funds and resources for the sect.

At the entrance ceremony that only direct disciples can participate in, Mu Qingzi presided over the visit to the portrait tablet of the patriarch, and accepted Lao Mai for the entrance, and the three personal disciples had already met, and they were shocked by the late cultivation of the foundation building at the age of only forty, and properly became their seventh uncle.

Mu Qingzi still has some registered disciples in the world, although he also came to the scene, Lao Mai still has no time to see it, in addition to the sect master's personal disciples and registered disciples, most of the others are disciples and grandchildren, and some are the descendants of domestic servants who are beginners in cultivation, and those with high talent even have cultivated to the fusion period of more than seven stages of qi refining.

Throughout the Chinese New Year's Eve sect annual meeting dinner, at the beginning of the sect leader Mu Qingzi toasted the congratulatory New Year's speech, all the sects also toasted to the master and respected each other, so the wine passed three rounds, the dishes passed five flavors, everyone stopped moving, according to the practice of previous years, it should be the time for the sect master to say the right thing.

I saw Mu Qingzi clear his throat and said, "Fellow disciples, this year's sect annual meeting is the happiest annual meeting of this sect master, why do you say that? It is because my seventh junior brother is here." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the old wheat sitting next to him.

So everyone in the sect looked at the position where Lao Mai Pan was sitting, except for a limited number of important people in the sect, most of the others had never met Lao Mai.

Just now, I saw him sitting silently on the right side of the head, drinking and eating by himself, and thought that he was a guest from another sect, but I didn't expect him to be the junior disciple of the sect master.

Mu Qingzi continued to introduce: "My junior brother's surname is Mai, his name is added to the virtue, the pure earth attribute, the cultivation in the later stage of foundation building, and what is even more remarkable is that he has awakened the inheritance exercise, which means that my Jinshi Sect has another Jindan power just around the corner, and the ancestor of Xuanjizi has a successor." ”

When the sect master said this, almost all the people present became excited, and their envious eyes stared at Lao Mai.

Everyone has heard of the pure attribute inheritor of the legend in the Xiuzhen sect, but no one has ever seen it for thousands of years, and he didn't expect that his sect would have another one.

This means that the second Jindan stage power in the Middle Earth Cultivation Realm that has descended for thousands of years is about to come out of his own sect, and the hearts of the disciples are all burning, this is really a grand event to glorify the ancestors.

Only then did Lao Mai understand the real reason why Mu Qingzi wanted to pull him into the sect, in the Middle Earth cultivation realm, he was really much rarer than the giant panda, and in the future, he would really advance to the Jindan stage, and in the cultivation realm, he would really be able to overwhelm his peers, and the Jinshi Sect would become the first sect in the mainland just around the corner.

Old Daomu Qingzi was also excited when he said this, his face was a little red, and then he said loudly: "Now this sect master announces two things, one is that there are only two of our senior brothers left in my generation, I am the sixteenth generation of the sect master, and the seventh junior brother is appointed to take up the position of deputy sect master immediately, if I am not there, all the affairs of the sect can be handled by the deputy sect master."

"Second, the cultivation of the deputy sect master is higher than that of the sect master, and the means of cultivation are beyond the reach of the sect master, from tomorrow, the deputy sect master will check the root bones for all the disciples one by one, guide the cultivation, and if you are lucky, you can also improve your cultivation on the spot. ”

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was sensational, and the people present were more excited than just now, and it was almost a great thing that the door people directly benefited, and the instant thunderous applause rang out, which lasted for a long time.

Lao Mai also took the stage to speak at the unit's meeting, and all he won was sparse applause, where can it be compared to this scene, there are only 100 people, and the applause that people in the cultivation are desperately cheering up, as if there are thousands of people applauding warmly.

No matter how thick Lao Mai's face was, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he hurriedly stood up and thanked each other.

Mu Qingzi sat on the side and looked at him with a smile, and after a long time, he reached out and pressed forward to stop the still loud applause.

In fact, these things have also been discussed by the two of them a long time ago, judging from Lao Mai's occasional promotion of cultivation for Ah Guang, although he is a pure earth attribute, but those low-level disciples can also improve their cultivation if they are suitable, and even if they are not good, they can also reconcile the bias of the attribute and enhance their cultivation ability.

For Lao Mai, who has cultivated to the point of releasing the true yuan power, to help some low-level sect people improve their cultivation, its consumption is negligible, and it only depends on how much he can help the other party with the pure earth attribute.

After saying these things, Mu Qingzi signaled to the doormen that they could eat, drink and talk freely, and said to Lao Mai: "Senior brother, there is something to tell you for my brother, let's go back and talk about it." ”

Lao Mai nodded and got up and walked out with him.

At this time, the sect people watched the two sect masters go out, still toasting and whispering to each other, each other was gentle and polite, and they did not make any noise because the top seat was empty.

At a glance, the scene seems to be a group of ancient literati drinking in the Wenhua Hall, raising their glasses and answering without raising their voices, not at all like people in Xiuzhen who believe in the law of the jungle are gathering.

After Lao Mai and Mu Qingzi left the field, they came to the back hall of the six ancestral mansions when they first met for tea, and sat down on the futon, and the boy who walked silently like a cat when he was young brought tea.

Mu Qingzi took a sip of fragrant tea, put down the teacup, and said slowly: "Last time, I talked about refining Zhuji Dan medicinal materials, but my brother hasn't talked about it in detail, and now I have to explain it to you in detail." ”

Lao Mai sat upright and nodded, "Senior brother, please speak." ”

Mu Qingzi said with a solemn expression: "In the past hundred years, the five major sects of the mainland cultivation realm have opened a medicine garden to plant Zhuji Dan medicinal materials in several mountains with excellent natural conditions near the border in Yunnan, and it takes ten years to mature and pick, and this year has reached the year of maturity, and the distribution standard of the medicinal materials after picking is to distribute the head of the Great Perfection during the Qi refining period. ”

Lao Mai gasped, he had already seen it just now, and the highest level among the disciples who participated in the annual meeting dinner was in the late stage of Qi refining nine-stage fusion, and there was not a single Great Perfection realm.

Mu Qingzi stared at Lao Mai with hope, and asked seriously, "The number of people who watched the ninth stage of Qi refining just now is not bad, I wonder if you can raise them all to the Great Perfection realm, junior brother?"

Lao Mai was silent for a while before he said: "If it is the attribute person who is the main attribute person, I can guide them to improve, and the other attribute people can only assert it after looking at the root bone tomorrow." ”

Mu Qingzi sighed: "Well, that's the only way, if you can get a few, you can count a few, this sect has not been qualified to participate in the distribution of medicinal materials for several decades." ”

Lao Mai suddenly asked, "Of the five major sects in the cultivation realm, is this sect counted as one?"

Mu Qingzi nodded and replied: "It's one, my sect is the southern sect in the east, west, north and south, in recent decades, the talent of this sect is unsustainable, and it gradually tends to decline, and the original brother is always worried that after he returns to heaven, this sect will collapse, and he will eventually be kicked out of the five major sects." ”

He suddenly laughed and said, "Now it's okay, junior brother, you're here, and I don't have any worries." ”

"Senior brother in charge has won the award," Lao Mai hurriedly said a few words of humility.

After the two of them finished their business, Lao Mai gossiped a few more words, and then went back to his house to seize the time to cultivate, regardless of when the meeting hall in the main building ended.
