protect our patriarch

Chapter 271 The situation is rising!Wealth moves people's hearts

……

the world is huge.

But no matter how big the world is, it has nothing to do with the Changning Wang family. After all, the current Changning Wang family is only a seventh-rank family.

Such an opportunity is already a godsend opportunity for Wang, and he has the opportunity to make up for the vacancy in the crafting industry.

Beside the "magma pond", in the opened secret room, there is a pile of discarded refining parts, and in the middle is a refining altar.

The spirit altar is an essential tool for alchemists. It is similar to the cauldron of an alchemist. It can ignite fire through the veins of the earth and introduce the earth fire into the altar. It is very convenient for smelting materials and calcining the prototype of the magic weapon.

Beside the altar of refining equipment, there is also a mighty metal puppet standing more than ten feet high.Its overall color is dark red, and it seems that it has experienced many battles, and its body structure has been damaged in many places.

After the spirit altar for refining equipment, there is Tian Yezi's cultivation altar. The key parts are made of heat-resistant red metal, which can absorb fire aura through the fire-type veins below, and practice fire-type basalt skills.

In addition, the materials left by Tian Yezi include "Tian Yezi's Experience in Artifact Refining", "Tian Yezi Teach You to Learn Artifact Refining from Scratch", "Unnamed Miscellaneous Notes (Tian Yezi's Suicide Note)", "Ye Tian Jue" (Including Qi Refining Chapter, Lingtai Chapter, Heaven and Man Chapter), "Tianhuo Zhenjue (Zifu Chapter)", "Wanbao Quanshu" (three chapters include 35 spiritual weapons, five magic weapons, three kinds of puppets, two special Lingbao, a kind of supernatural magic weapon, gold fire water three attributes of the basic practice altar refining formula and refining experience summary).

It is worth mentioning that "The Complete Book of All Treasures" is a classic complete book of refining artifacts collected by the Tianhuo Sect. Each of them is carefully selected before being collected and included. advantages and features.

Another thing is that Tian Yezi left behind a "heavenly work box".

This is a space treasure similar to a storage ring, but its storage space is much larger than ordinary space storage rings. Putting all the objects in this room into it, the internal space is more than enough.

The only problem is that once the Tiangong box is refined, it is difficult to move it.

It's not that it's impossible to move at all, but it's extremely difficult.If the Tiangong box is easily moved, it will cause turmoil in its internal space, ranging from scattering all the items, to severely destroying the important materials stored in it.

Moreover, it cannot be put into the storage ring and taken away, which will cause collisions in the folding space, causing shocks in the storage space, and even the storage ring may be destroyed together.

In short, it is like a large private multifunctional locker with excellent performance. It is very useful when used, but it is extremely inconvenient to carry it around.

Therefore, once the folding space inside most Tiangong boxes is unfolded, it will not be touched again.

What's more, Tian Yezi also left behind a high-grade storage ring, on which Tian Yezi's spiritual power has been worn away by time, and there is nothing in it except for those chapters of exercises.

The sum of these things is the entire inheritance left by Tian Yezi.

Among them, although "Ye Tian Jue" is only a medium-grade fire-type exercise, it is the prerequisite for inheriting all of Tian Yezi's skills.

After all, senior Tian Yezi's experience in refining weapons all his life was born out of "Ye Tian Jue". Later, in order to forcefully break through to the Zifu Realm, he obtained "Tianhuo Zhenjue (Zifu Chapter)".And the latter only has the Purple Mansion chapter, and cannot practice alone at all.

Therefore, "Ye Tian Jue" was placed in a refining box, and there was a card slot on the box, which can be inserted into an ordinary spirit stone. After activation, it can be used to test the matching between Xuanwu monks and "Ye Tian Jue" degree.

If they can't match, naturally they won't be able to inherit "Ye Tian Jue".

Wang Shouming, Wang Lilian, Wang Zongyao, and Wang Luoqing are the discoverers of the relics, and they are naturally the first to test the matching degree.

After that, the four of them took the test one after another.

Sure enough, as the ancestor of Longyan expected, although Wang Shouming practiced "The True Art of the Red Dragon", he is also a basalt monk with the fire attribute, but his matching degree with "The Art of Ye Tian" is very average, and he cannot open "The Art of Ye Tian" refining box.

This made Wang Shouming slightly disappointed.

On the contrary, Wang Shouyong stepped forward to comfort him and said, "Eighth Brother, the "Red Dragon True Art" you practiced was originally a top-grade exercise with great potential in the future. As long as you practice steadily, it will definitely be of use to you."

"Fifth brother, I understand." Wang Shouming nodded, "Every family has its own duties, so it's good to focus on fighting. In the future, we will open up wild lands outside the territory for the family."

Afterwards, Wang Lilian, Wang Luoqing, and Wang Zongyao also took the test.

However, the result was unexpected, and none of the three of them matched successfully.

This surprised everyone.

It's just a middle-grade exercise, but the threshold is so high?

However, after everyone was stunned, they made some inferences and understood.

It should not be that the threshold of "Ye Tian Jue" itself is high, but that the threshold set by Tian Yezi is relatively high.After that, a group of young people from the Wang family took turns to take the test, but they were all rejected one by one.

After that, even Wang Shouyong tried, but he still couldn't pass Tian Yezi's inheritance conditions.

In this way, we can only ask the generals to go up and try.

One failure, two failures, three failures...

A few days later, just when everyone was about to give up hope, an 11-year-old general Miaozi Wang Ping passed the test so abruptly, opened Tian Yezi's box, and got "Ye Tian Jue".

Everyone was a little baffled for a while.

However, this is a good thing after all, and everyone soon stopped entangled, but pondered the reason.Soon, all Wang Ping's information appeared in front of Liu Ruolan, Patriarch Longyan and others.

When the child was eight years old, he passed the Wang's Lingtai test, and his aptitude in the initial test was lower grade C, and he was neither good nor bad among the seedlings at home.The speed of cultivation is neither fast nor slow, and now it has just reached the middle level of the first layer of Qi Refining Realm.

His academic performance in ethnology is only average.

As for the appearance, it's not handsome, it looks a little naive.But it was such an ordinary child who passed the test...

The child's only advantage is that he has been a tenant farmer of the Wang family since his great-grandfather, and his identity can be described as innocent.

In fact, this advantage is really not an advantage.

In Wang's current family training system, clean identity and background are the first element.

Those who can become family generals are basically the collaterals of the Wang family, the servants of the Wang family, the tenant farmers of the Wang family, or the common people under the jurisdiction, and the ancestors can be traced for at least three generations...

Wang Ping's inexplicable pass made Wang Shouming and the others unconvinced.

Could it be that this inconspicuous general seedling is better than them?Moreover, this kid is dark and simple-minded, without any trace of elegance.

The "poor" family general Miao Wang Ping had no idea what happened, so he was taken away.

It was the first time he met Liu Ruolan, the "superior" wife of the Wang family, and the legendary ancestor Longyan. He was trembling with nervousness, his legs kept swinging, and he didn't dare to say a word with his head down. .

Moreover, the young masters and young ladies in the family looked at him very unkindly, as if they were quite dissatisfied with him.

"Wang Ping, don't be afraid." Liu Ruolan said slowly, "Since you have become a member of the Wang family, you are a member of my Wang family, not an outsider."

"Yes, ma'am."

Seeing Liu Ruolan's pleasant face, Wang Ping relaxed a little.

The generals of the Wang family were all trained from an early age. Not only did they have to practice martial arts, but they also had to receive strict cultural education in ethnology.

Although Wang Ping was young, when he relaxed, he was well-founded and thoughtful, and he already had the demeanor of the elders of the family.

"You are able to open the refining jade box, there must be something unique about you. Think carefully to see if there is anything different about you from others." Liu Ruolan asked casually, "It doesn't matter if you can't remember it , don’t force yourself.”

Wang Ping thought hard for a while, but his expression was still blank: "Madam Qi, the most glorious moment of this subordinate is that he passed the general test, which made the neighbors very envious. There is nothing else."

The voice just fell.

Suddenly.

There was a "buzz" sound from the sword in the air, and a flash of sword light struck him like lightning.Its speed is so fast that it is difficult to catch even a high-level Qi Refining Realm.

But Wang Ping stared, and instinctively took half a step back, his complexion turned extremely pale in an instant.

The magic weapon exuding purple lightning flashed half a foot away in front of him, then flew back and submerged into the scabbard around Wang Longyan's waist again.

Everything happened between lightning and flint.

"Old Ancestor, what are you..." Wang Shouming was taken aback, and hurriedly cupped his hands to beg for mercy, "Although we are unhappy with Wang Ping, he is not at fault after all, please calm down, Old Ancestor."

The rest of the juniors also hurriedly begged for mercy.

Although it was true that Wang Ping seemed a little dull, which made them feel unwilling, it was not his fault.They have been educated by the Wang clan since they were young, and their three views are relatively upright, and they don't want to watch Wang Ping have an accident...

"You guys don't worry." Liu Ruolan smiled, "Is the old ancestor that indiscriminate person? It was just a test. Now I understand that Wang Ping seems ordinary, but he His instinctive reaction was extremely quick, and he had already condensed a sliver of divine consciousness. No wonder, he, who was mediocre in other respects, was able to pass the test of senior Tian Yezi."

A trace of consciousness?
Wang Shouming and others were astonished.

This boy Wang Ping is only 11 years old, and at the first level of Qi Refining Realm... he has a trace of divine consciousness?

Spiritual consciousness is also called spiritual consciousness. The names are different, but the meaning is the same.

When Xuanwu monks are in the Qi refining state, they always take the path of refining Qi and blood to temper the body and meridians, so as to strengthen themselves and breed more high-quality Xuan Qi.

During this process, although Xuanwu monks become stronger in physique, they will gradually condense a sliver of spiritual consciousness, but the Qi Refining Realm is not a realm dedicated to strengthening the spiritual consciousness after all, so most of the cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm do not have strong spiritual consciousness.

Only when one breaks through into the spirit platform and opens the spirit platform will the spiritual consciousness increase dramatically.

At this time, Xuanwu monks can use spiritual weapons to fight.Without the gradual integration of spiritual consciousness and spiritual weapons, even some sharp spiritual weapons can only be used as more powerful weapons.

Being at the first level of Qi Refining Realm, he possesses a trace of spiritual consciousness, which shows that Wang Ping's spiritual consciousness potential should be relatively high.As for refining tools, it often requires a higher level of consciousness to feel changes in temperature, to manipulate the shape of objects, and so on.

It's not that those with weak spiritual sense can't refine weapons, but obviously, Tian Yezi specially set a higher threshold in order to pursue higher quality "intergenerational disciples".

"Since that's the case, Wang Ping, you should still go to school, and you just need to set aside a part in cultivation and chores to learn "Ye Tian Jue" and accept the inheritance of refining weapons." Liu Ruolan said with a final word, "In addition, Zong Yao You are practicing Wang's "Xuan Yuan Jue", so it is not a problem to spend some time switching to "Ye Tian Jue". Senior Tian Yezi did not stipulate that only one person can accept the inheritance. And you are older, with a mature and steady personality , you can also accept the inheritance of refining equipment. From now on, Wang Ping will learn from you~"

"As for strengthening the consciousness, I will discuss it with your fourth uncle when he comes back, and see if we can think of a way."

Wang Zongyao was overjoyed all of a sudden.

However, he is not a child after all, he was still able to suppress his excitement, cupped his hands and said in thanks: "Thank you for your support, Fourth Aunt."

Patriarch Longyan also nodded secretly.

She has always protected her shortcomings, and she does not want to rely solely on a family general seedling to maintain the inheritance of "Ye Tian Jue".Now it seems that Tian Yezi is a bit paranoid and has set a series of conditions on the refining box.

Purely in terms of potential, she believes Zong Yao is far superior to Wang Ping.

Moreover, the family's refining inheritance is not something that happens overnight.Only when it is passed on from one generation to two generations to three generations, will the Wang family's background in the art of refining become more and more profound.

The matter is settled for the time being.

Since the "Qinglian Fire Valley" has been included in the territory of the Wang family, the subsequent development plan has naturally been put on the agenda, opening up paths between the mountains, building living areas, forging areas, setting up guard posts, and arranging Patrol and garrison forces... and other specific tasks will also be gradually arranged.

In a few decades, Qinglian Fire Valley will become a treasure land of the Wang family.

……

Almost at the same time.

Changningwei, Qian's other courtyard.

Just after dinner time, there was still a setting sun in the sky.The setting sun is like blood, reflecting half of the sky red.

The sky hadn't completely darkened yet, but in the main hall of the inner courtyard, the fluorescent lamp had already lit up.Lavender curtains made of silkworm silk hang on both sides of the room. Under the light, they seem to be coated with a layer of light, making them appear noble and elegant.

In the corner, the red copper censer cast in the shape of a brave man emits curling cigarettes, which looks peaceful and peaceful.

however.

The atmosphere in the main hall at this moment has nothing to do with the word "harmony".

More than a dozen middle-aged people in brocade clothes were sitting or standing, gathering in twos and threes to communicate in a low voice.These people are different in height, short, fat and thin, but they all have a similar round face. They look friendly, but they are all frowning, and there is an inexplicable anxiety in the atmosphere.

And the one sitting first among the crowd was Qian Xue'an, the current chief shopkeeper of the Ningwei Branch of Qian's Commercial Bank.

"Boss, what's the situation now?" A middle-aged man in black brocade clothes stood beside Qian Xue'an and asked in a low voice, "I received an order to hold a meeting, but the seal on the envelope is not yours. It's the seal of the master. How could the master bypass you and give us an order directly? What the hell is Qian Xuerui doing?"

He was one of Qian Xuean's confidantes, and he was not sure if he was suddenly called to a meeting this time.

"Don't be impatient." Qian Xue'an waved his hand to comfort him, "Right now, we can only wait and see. No matter what moves he makes, soldiers will block him, and water will cover him."

In fact, he didn't have a clue.

These days, on the one hand, he tried every means to appease and win people's hearts, and tied his subordinates to the same boat as him. On the other hand, he also sent people to keep an eye on Qian Xuerui.

But after Qian Xuerui stayed here, he should eat, drink, and go shopping, as if he was here for a trip, which made him unpredictable, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.

is talking.

Suddenly there was a voice from the servant boy outside the door: "Young Master Rui is here."

The voice fell, and there was a sudden silence in the room.

Generally speaking, only the descendants of the family above the Purple Mansion, and those who have relatively outstanding aptitude, will be honored as "Young Master".

In the Zifu Qian family, there is only one person who will be honored as "Mr. Rui".

Everyone unconsciously looked towards the door.

In the twilight, a figure was walking slowly surrounded by servants at home.

It was a tall and straight young man.

He has Qian's signature round face, with thick eyebrows and thick lips, and a simple and honest face. In the slightly narrowed eyes, there is a shrewdness from the bone, but it is also covered by the drooping eyelids. More than half of it is easy to see through.

The setting sun was like blood, coating his body with a layer of dim brilliance, even the dark blue brocade clothes were smudged by this light, revealing a bit of purple color.

The expressions of the shopkeepers present became solemn unconsciously, and their eyes couldn't help flickering, pretending to glance at Qian Xue'an inadvertently.

"Master Rui."

Qian Xuean suppressed the emotions in his heart, stepped forward and saluted calmly, welcomed the group of people in, and at the same time vacated the seat of the leader, and ordered them to change the tea.

"Master Rui, please take your seat."

As a child of a family, he has been taught strict etiquette since he was a child. Before tearing his face apart, no matter what he thinks in his heart, he can't find a single mistake in the etiquette on the surface. It can be said that he has made a lot of superficial skills into ten.

Unexpectedly, Qian Xuerui didn't answer his fault, but waved his hands with a smile: "The chief shopkeeper is my elder brother. How dare Xuerui take the lead in front of my elder brother. I just stand and talk."

Qian Xuerui didn't sit, so it was not convenient for others to sit, so they could only stand and listen to him.

The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly became subtle, and Qian Xuean's expression froze slightly.

He expected that Qian Xuerui would come in a bad way, but he didn't expect that he didn't even bother to do a little superficial work.These words seemed to be polite, but in fact they made him face in public, it was obvious that he was not going to show him face.

Qian Xuean's face was slightly gloomy, and he could see that Qian Xuerui was not going to beat around the bush with him, and started to turn his face directly.

Sure enough, Qian Xuerui suppressed his smile and said again: "I have been in Nanliuwei for a while. During this time, I have learned a little about the situation in Nanliuwei, and I am very disappointed~"

Qian Xuean said indifferently: "Mr. Rui, if you have something to say, just say it."

Qian Xuerui sneered and said, "I, the Qian family, have cooperated with Changning Wang's in-laws group for more than 20 years. In terms of strength, connections, and channels, my Qian family occupies an absolute dominant position, but the profits are occupied by the Wang family and others." Datou, if you feed Wang from the ninth rank to the seventh rank, there is nothing you want to explain?"

As soon as these words came out, there was a dead silence all around, and all the shopkeepers lowered their heads, not even daring to breathe.

Qian Xue'an suppressed the anger in his heart: "Young Master Rui is joking, it's not my credit that Changning Wang's can leap to rank seven. Besides, Changning Wang's generation has produced a large number of talents, and is highly valued in the academy. Actually In fact, our cooperation between the Qian family and the Changning Wang family has actually taken advantage of us."

Qian Xuerui seemed to have expected that he would say this, and smiled when he heard the words: "Changning Wang's relationship with Xuegong is very close. Is the relationship between Qian's and Xuegong so bad? Qian's cooperation with Xuegong has already been established. For thousands of years, in terms of close relationship, how could he, the Changning Wang family, surpass my Qian family? As for who would take advantage, well, if it wasn't for the cooperation with my Qian family, the district chief Ning Wang would still want to sell the goods to every corner of Longzuo No?"

"Changning Wang's rise is all thanks to my Qian family's protection."

After a pause, his expression calmed down, and his voice became cold: "What's more, now that the family's fortune is booming, and it is about to train the second master of Zifu, the demand for resources is greater than before, don't you know? At this time , don’t want to fight for more benefits for the family, but still protect others everywhere, are you reasonable?!”

"you!"

Qian Xuean was so angry that his face was livid. This kid didn't understand anything, so he was talking nonsense here.

He wanted to refute, but Qian Xuerui directly raised the issue to the level of the family. No matter how many reasons he had, he couldn't just say "for the family".

He simply didn't bother to argue, just flicked his sleeves, and said in a cold voice: "I don't care if I am wrong or not. Let me ask Xuerui, in what capacity are you questioning me? Even if you are a descendant, so what? No right, no right What qualifications do you have to judge me and interrogate me?"

Qian Xuerui seemed to have expected that he would say this, and took out something from the storage ring with his backhand, and revealed it: "Brother Xue'an, what do you think this is?"

The light of the fluorescent lamp was bright and soft, clearly reflecting the appearance of the items in his hand.It was a token carved from Millennium Spirit Oak, surrounded by inscriptions on the edge, and the word "Ling" in the center.

"Patriarch's order?!"

Everyone present looked horrified, and hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted deeply in the direction of the token.

Qian Xuean's face turned pale in an instant.

The "Patriarch Order" is the unique token of the Patriarch of the Qian family in the Purple Mansion, which can act as part of the Patriarch's powers.

Theoretically speaking, with the Patriarch's order in hand, everything can be settled with one word.There is no particular reason, and the Presbyterian Council will not give face to the Patriarch.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Qian Xuerui was satisfied, nodded slightly and said: "Before I came, the Patriarch gave me this, and told me to do things cheaply. Now, I remove Qian Xue'an as the treasurer of Qian Xue'an on the grounds of disregarding the interests of the family." Do you have any objections?"

All the people present are just small shopkeepers, how can they have the guts to oppose the Patriarch's orders?

At that moment, they all bent down to salute, and said in their mouths: "But it's up to Mr. Rui to make the decision."

Seeing this, Qian Xuean knew that the situation was over, and it was useless to struggle any longer.

"Mr. Rui even invited the 'Patriarch Order', how dare I have any objection?" He gave Qian Xuerui a look with a smirk, "Since he is no longer the big shopkeeper, Xuean will not stay to hinder Rui The son's eyes are gone, so I will leave."

After finishing speaking, he bowed his hands to Qian Xuerui, turned around and backed out.

Before leaving, he felt sad and angry, but also regretful.He and Wang Shouzhe have known each other for many years, and they have deep feelings for each other. He naturally knows that Shouzhe's younger brother is very moral and righteous, but he is not willing to suffer if he is offended.

I don't know what happened to the head of the family, who has always been quite famous, this time?He actually let this brat, Qian Xuerui, mess around and pick Qian Xuean's peaches.

What a stupid move!
This time, Qian's might be in big trouble.Qian Xuerui, Qian Xuerui, I'm afraid you really got into trouble this time.

But no matter what, the current Qian family has followed the Wang family's shareholder style, and the net income has suddenly increased by a large amount.Sooner or later, there will be those who are greedy for this piece of fat.

If Qian Xuerui doesn't come today, maybe a more ruthless one will come tomorrow.

Only when Brother Shouzhe hurts you, will you know who is the one who took advantage.Only then will you understand my true abilities, Qian Xuean.

Thinking of this, Qian Xuean calmed down instead.
