Cultivation Begins From The Desert

After saying goodbye to Zhou Ping and Zhou Yu, Zhou Yang visited his twelfth aunt Qian Hongyu on the second floor, and then went up to the third floor to visit his seventh uncle Zhou Xuanlin who was in charge of the "Yuquan Tower".

Zhou Xuanlin was close to ninety years old when he reached the ninth floor of Qi training. His appearance looked rather old. When Zhou Yang saw him, he was sitting on the third floor sipping tea and listening to the music leisurely. He seemed very secular. An old rich man among mortals.

That song was not sung by divas and actors, but was sung by a first-order magical instrument called "Liushengzhu".

"Hey, Xiaojiu, you don't practice in the family, why did you come here in Fangshi?"

Zhou Xuanlin, who didn't pay much attention to the sound of footsteps going upstairs at first, changed his expression slightly when he saw that it was Zhou Yang, and put down his teacup in surprise and stood up from his seat.

He also participated in the battle against the "Haoyang Grotto" back then, so he naturally knew that Zhou Yang had been retreating there for many years, and now seeing Zhou Yang appearing here, who was not very high, he couldn't help but have a thought in his heart. many guesses.

"Nephew Zhou Yang, I met Uncle Qi."

Zhou Yang respectfully saluted the younger generation first, and then smiled lightly and said: "So that Uncle Seven can know that my father has successfully established the foundation, and now the family is preparing to hold the foundation ceremony, so the old patriarch asked my nephew to Come to Fangshi to replace Qi Shu and you to sit in Yuquan Building, so that Qi Shu, you, fourth brother, fifth brother and the others can return to the family to participate in this celebration."

"What? Your father succeeded in building the foundation!"

Zhou Xuanlin was shocked, and was stunned by the news Zhou Yang brought.

Of course he knew about Zhou Xuanhao returning to the family to prepare the foundation, but he was not at all optimistic that Zhou Xuanhao would succeed in establishing the foundation this time. When he met Zhou Yang just now, he wondered if Zhou Xuanhao had failed in the foundation establishment. Falling, the family sent Zhou Yang over to inform him to return to the family to mourn the funeral!

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that big brother would actually succeed!"

He muttered to himself in disbelief, with an indescribably complicated expression on his face.

Prior to this, the Zhou family's monks almost thought that Zhou Yang would be the next Zhou family's foundation-building monk. No one expected that Zhou Xuanzhen, who was nearly a hundred years old and had no hope of building a foundation, would suddenly emerge and snatch his son The foundation building in front of him was successful.

A few percent of the foundation building success rate can make him succeed, this luck is too good!

"Could it be that [Earth Yuan Spiritual Milk] not only restores the vitality of monks in the Qi training period, but also has the effect of increasing the success rate of foundation building?"

Zhou Xuanlin didn't really believe in luck. He was nearly ninety years old when he relied on the power of pills to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi training.

Rather than saying that Zhou Xuanhao's success in building the foundation was due to luck, he would rather believe that the effect of the third-order spiritual item [Earth Element Spiritual Milk] was unexpected, and it had a bonus effect on foundation building.

If this is the case, he is only in his nineties this year, can he also apply to the family to take the remaining [Earth Yuan Spirit Milk] to impact the foundation?

But as soon as he came up with this idea, he immediately denied it with a wry smile.

Even if [Earth Yuan Spiritual Milk] really has a bonus effect on foundation building, so what?

Zhou Xuanhao dared to take the risk because he was a middle-grade spiritual root aptitude, and someone later gave birth to a genius son, so even if he lost the fight, he would die without regret.

But what about Zhou Xuanlin?

He has a low-level spiritual root aptitude, even if he takes the "Building Foundation Pill", he only has a 30% success rate of foundation building, so what can he use to fight?

If Zhou Xuanhao loses, he doesn't have to worry about his wife and children's future life. If he loses, what will happen to his sons and grandsons who don't have spiritual roots?

"Everything is fate!"

Zhou Xuanlin let out a long sigh full of bitterness.

Among ordinary mortals, there are people who end up in yellow robes as beggars, and in the world of immortality, there are also people with the following spiritual root qualifications who eventually become great monks in the Nascent Soul Stage.

It's a pity that such people are very few after all, ninety-nine out of ten mortals and immortal cultivators, their fate is actually doomed at the moment of birth.

Ordinary people who were born in rich and noble families enjoy endless luxury and food all their lives. Immortal cultivators with high-grade spiritual roots can basically succeed in building foundations without accidents.

Ordinary mortals born in common people's homes, ordinary immortal cultivators with only low-grade spiritual root aptitude, if nothing unexpected happened, they would be ordinary commoners for the rest of their lives, ordinary immortal cultivators in the Qi training period!

Zhou Xuanlin has lived for more than 90 years, and he has already seen through these things, so after he worked hard to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi training, he basically gave up his fantasy of building a foundation, and only wanted to live in the few remaining 20 or 30 years of his life. , to enjoy the joys of life that I didn't dare to enjoy before, and it's not in vain for me to come to the world for nothing.

Now that he has recognized the reality and saw Zhou Yang looking at him with a strange expression, he just remembered that his surprised words seemed inappropriate just now, and he couldn't help but shouted: "Ah, the old man just made a slip of the tongue, Xiao Jiu, don't you Misunderstood, elder brother succeeded in building the foundation, I am sincerely happy for him, happy for the family to have one more foundation-establishment monk, absolutely never have any thoughts of slandering elder brother, I dare to swear!"

He was also in a hurry, and even the words of swearing came out.

It's no wonder that Zhou Xuanhao successfully established the foundation and became the second surviving monk in the family's foundation establishment period, so his status is quite different from before.

As the elder of the family, as Zhou Xuanhao's younger brother, if news of jealousy and slander of the family's foundation-builder cultivators spreads at this time, the old patriarch Zhou Minghan would be so angry that he would directly dismiss him as an elder, and the other cultivators of the same generation would probably also Will cut off contact with him, it will make him more uncomfortable than killing him.

When Zhou Yang saw this scene, the unhappiness in his heart quickly dissipated, his face relaxed, and he said with a smile on his face: "Seventh Uncle, don't get excited, you are loyal to the family, the old patriarch and my father and the others We all know, we Zhou family monks have always been united, I certainly believe that you will not slander my father, so you can relax!"

"Huh! Xiaojiu, as long as you understand, as long as you understand."

Zhou Xuanlin looked at Zhou Yang carefully, and saw that the smile on his face did not seem to be fake, so he let go of his worries with a sigh of relief.

Next, Zhou Yang and Zhou Xuanlin had a long talk that lasted for half a day. It was mainly Zhou Xuanlin who introduced to him the business situation of "Yuquan Building", the Zhou family's personal connections in Fangshi, and the unexpected incidents. At that time, how to quickly contact the family.

Basically, the shopkeeper of "Yuquan Building" is the spokesperson of the Zhou family in "Jinshafang City" and is responsible for handling all the family affairs of the Zhou family in Fangshi.

Before Zhou Yang, at least the shopkeepers of "Yuquanlou" had to be the elders of Zhou's parents to be eligible.

Before Zhou Xuanlin became the elder of Zhou's family, he had already stayed in "Yuquan Building" for more than ten years, but the person in charge here has always been only Zhou Xuanhao, the elder of Zhou's family.

After completing the handover of the "Yuquan Building" with his seventh uncle Zhou Xuanlin, Zhou Yang went to the "Zuixian Building" next.

His mother Lin Yuting used to be in charge of the "Zuixian Tower". After his mother accompanied his father back to the family, Luo Meiwei, the wife of the seventh uncle Zhou Xuanlin, took over as the shopkeeper. Three female monks served as maids and cooks.

Among them, Zhou Yuanchun ranked sixth among his peers. He was the only monk with spiritual roots among the three children born to Zhou Yang's adoptive mother Zhou Xuanyu.

Zhou Yuanxia and Zhou Yuanzhen are ranked seventh and twelfth among their peers. The ancestors of the two daughters have been secular mortals of the Zhou family for several generations, and their spiritual root aptitude is as inferior as Zhou Yuanchun. Qi training period.

Zhou Yangsheng was handsome, he had an extraordinary background, and his cultivation was far superior to his peers. When he appeared in the "Drunken Immortal Building", Zhou Yuanchun and the three Zhou family female monks all had beautiful eyes.

Sisters love to be pretty, even a cultivator can't avoid it.

Not only is Zhou Yang handsome, but he is also a second-tier high-grade craftsman. He is young and rich, and he is the most ideal Taoist partner for female immortal cultivators. Zhou Yuanchun and the others are naturally among them.

"Hehehe, Xiaojiu, do you think I should continue to call you Jiudi? Or should I call you Yangdi?"

Zhou Yuanchun is the oldest among the three female immortal cultivators, and his mother is Zhou Yang's adoptive mother, and the old patriarch Zhou Minghan, his direct great-grandfather, is behind him. The person who doesn't care much about Zhou Yang's status change, so after the initial surprise, she immediately made fun of Zhou Yang with a smile.

"Sister Yuanchun, don't make fun of my younger brother. I still like my sister to call my younger brother Xiaojiu."

Zhou Yang had an embarrassed smile on his face, quite speechless about the sixth sister's joke.

"Brother Yang" is so weird, he doesn't want to be called that!

After speaking, he smiled and said to Zhou Yuanxia and Zhou Yuanzhen who were looking at him eagerly: "Seventh sister is good, and there is twelfth sister. I haven't seen you for many years. The older sisters are getting more and more beautiful. I heard from my mother a long time ago. The suitors of the elder sisters have already lined up from the Zuixian Tower to the Yuquan Tower, I didn’t believe it before, but now that I have seen the fairy sisters with my own eyes, I know that what my mother said is true.”

Women are those who please themselves, and the three daughters of the Zhou family burst into smiles when they heard what Zhou Yang said.

Zhou Yuanzhen was the closest in age to Zhou Yang, and was also the youngest present, so she acted coquettishly at the moment: "Ninth brother, you are talking nonsense, the eldest aunt wouldn't say that, how can there be any suitors, those people are all It's none of their business to come after Sister Yuanchun and Sister Yuanxia."

After the two of them said this, Zhou Yuanxia, ​​who was originally a little shy and restrained, let go of her heart, and she couldn't help but interjected and joked: "Well, you twelfth sister, your ability to tell nonsense with your eyes open has gradually improved recently, what do you think?" It's none of your business, so what's going on with that uncle of the Liu family? Why does he come to Zuixianlou several times a month, and every time you go to accompany him?"

"Hmph, Seventh Sister, are you still ashamed to say that you are the one who taught me how to drink and chat with guests and let them feel the warmth of home in Zuixianlou? How pure was she when she first came here? You have brought people down!"

Zhou Yuanzhen snorted in embarrassment, a little annoyed at Zhou Yuanxia's joke.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Yuanchun on the side gave a narrow smile, looked at someone with a face full of embarrassment and laughed and said, "Hahaha, younger sister, you are wrong, as far as my sister knows, you What you said, including the Shuixiuru skirt you are wearing now, is all thanks to the ninth brother, and even the spirit stones we commissioned are all thanks to the ninth brother's suggestion that made the family make an exception to agree!"

The moment Zhou Yang looked embarrassed, he felt a little ashamed, and he didn't dare to look at the two sisters Zhou Yuanxia and Zhou Yuanzhen who were full of surprise and embarrassment.

At the beginning, he heard his mother Lin Yuting complain about the poor business of the restaurant, and after asking about the situation, he thought of this crooked trick. Out of trust in his precious son, Lin Yuting asked Zhou Yuanchun to try it at that time, and found that the effect was really good. very good.

So later, all members of the Zhou family's "Zuixian Tower" were replaced by women. Zhou Yuanzhen, who was young, beautiful and pure, was transferred here when he turned twenty, and soon became the "house owner" of the restaurant. Gold medal server".

ps: I don’t know if writing like this will make people say it’s watery, I just think it’s very comfortable to write like this, family cultivation, of course you can’t do without fighting, but the relationship and interaction between family members is equally important in my opinion .

People like Zhou Yuanchun may not even be able to play a supporting role in a novel estimated to exceed two million words, but I think since I let their names appear, I should let them leave some traces.

Well, the level is limited, and it is too difficult to write a book with flesh and blood!
