Longevity begins with Orion

Chapter 130 128. First arrival (big chapter - please subscribe)

"Sir, this road is getting narrower and narrower."

Li Yuan heard a woman's soft whisper in his ear.

He opened his eyes and saw the large black car. He looked down slightly and saw Xiao Lin sleeping soundly on his right leg. Opposite her was Tang Nian, the righteous daughter who was concentrating with her eyes closed.

This scene made him feel warm and reassured, because these were the things he was protecting.

As for the one who spoke, it was the proprietress Xue Ning.

Xue Ning was on his right side, leaning side by side. But at some point, she had turned her head slightly and was looking out the window warily.

Outside the window, spring rain floated like ox-hair needles, and the flat official road became muddy. The wheels of the rapidly rotating carriage were turning up little bits of dark black mud, and they were thrown far away.

At this point, they have left Fujiang Road.

Li Yuan did not follow her gaze.

Because, a demon bird that was slightly transparent in the rain and nine ordinary birds were flying in the surrounding spring rain, surveying the surrounding roads for him.

Even with his eyes closed, he was actually paying attention to the goings-on around him all the time.

Seeing the worry in his woman's eyes, Li Yuan stretched out his left hand, walked around her shoulders from behind, and gently hugged her into his arms.

Xue Ning was dressed in a vermilion brocade dress, and her snow-white trousers neatly covered her buttocks, thighs, and calves with just the right amount of flesh. The trousers were neat and covered her ankles, revealing a pair of slightly curled embroidered shoes.

She has a dignified temperament and eyes full of experience. She is an intellectual, capable and mature woman. Such a woman has a strong appeal to men of any age.

"It's okay. Palace Master Gu is a big shot. With her leading the way, nothing will happen." Li Yuan comforted her softly, then put Xue Ning into her arms.

Naturally, his voice could not be hidden from Gu Xuejian, who was in the car in front.

Guxue looked calm, rubbed Xiao Ping'an's head, and talked to him in detail about the Shenmu Temple.

It's misty and rainy, and the days are short.

A land boundary sign appeared in the distance.

The card is blood red with the words "Luchang County" written on it.

The carriage in front stopped first, and the carriage behind and the long queue also slowly stopped.

Li Yuan shook Xiao Lin who was sleeping in a daze. The little girl raised her head and asked sleepily: "Dad, are you here?"

Li Yuandao: "There is still nearly half a month."

"How long was that?"

"In fifteen days, we have already traveled more than half of our journey."

"Dad, I want to go home." The little girl muttered, holding her mouth shut, and then her voice took on a crying tone, "Dad, I miss home."

She whimpered and cried very sadly.

Big tears fell from her beautiful "eyes" and wet her face, but she couldn't remove the makeup, and because the makeup was applied by Lady Yan herself, even the shadow blood of a sixth-grade warrior couldn't be washed away. Even fifth-grade products may not be washable.

These are really beautiful big eyes.

As a mother, she couldn't give her newborn daughter eyes, but she made up for it when they were parting.

However, Xiao Yan cried particularly fiercely.

This scene has happened many times.

Xue Ning reached out to hug the little girl and coaxed her and said, "Yuan Tianfu is great. There are more delicious and fun things there than in our Shanbao County. Don't cry, Xiao Yan."

"I don't want it, I don't want it! Wuwuwu," Xiao Yan cried.

Li Yuan gently stroked her hair, then picked up his daughter, held her on top of him, and looked out the window with her at the fading scenery, and then said: "That's the way we came. , we will come back along this road in the future."

Half a month later.

Garden Tianfu.

The inner city of Shenmu Temple.

Along the way, Gu Xuejian also introduced Li Yuan generally.

The inner city of Shenmu Temple is divided into three gates.

The area behind the first gate is the largest, larger than the two Shanbao counties. There are twenty-five squares in it, where ordinary warriors and merchants live. The Hengwu Chamber of Commerce, Baihua Winery, and Ningyu Chamber of Commerce, who arrived early, all settled here.

Behind the second gate is about the size of Shanbao County. There are two six-grade meat fields and two seven-grade meat fields. The meat fields are generally towards the northwest, so housing prices in the northwest are very expensive, and Most of them are warriors and disciples from the outer sect of Shenmu Temple.

Behind the third gate is only half the size of Shanbao County, but it is where the Shenmu Palace is located. There is a fourth-grade meat field, two fifth-grade meat fields, and three sixth-grade meat fields in the Shenmu Palace. Living here Cultivation can be said to be twice the result with half the effort. However, only the inner disciples, direct disciples, elders, and worshipers of Shenmu Temple can live here. Of course, the families of these people can also settle here and enjoy the blessings.

At this time, the carriage has passed the second door and is heading towards the third door.

When Guxue saw it, she called Li Yuan to the carriage and asked:

"Li Yuan, you have also considered it, would you like to be a sixth-grade worshiper in my Shenmu Temple?

If you do it, you can receive 120 kilograms of sixth-grade monster meat and 20 taels of base blood gold every month.

As for attendance, the sect will give blood gold according to the difficulty of the task, ranging from 20 taels of blood gold to as much as 100 taels.

At the same time, your family can also move into the third gate. "

Li Yuan had already thought about this issue.

When Fengfeng received the task, he could not refuse it. For this reason alone, he was unwilling.

He would rather be a wild worshiper than a stable sect worshiper.

Besides, he didn't want to take Xiaoqi to a place very close to the core of Shenmu Temple.

Although he believed in Lady Yan's underhanded tactics, Shenmu Temple was a very powerful force, and there was no guarantee that anyone would be able to see through it. By then, if the news that Xiao Yan is a jade corpse is known to others, the consequences will be disastrous.

So, Li Yuan saluted, shook his head slightly, and said with a smile: "Thank you so much, Master Gu, for your kindness. However, Li's realm has stopped here, and he has no intention of making progress in his heart. He wants this sixth-grade flesh and blood again." What's the use?

For the rest of my life, I just want to travel with my wife and daughter, but I’m afraid I won’t be able to make this sacrifice. "

Seeing that Gu Xue was silent for a moment, she didn't continue to press.

Just as the man in front of me said.

For Sanren, level six is ​​the limit they can go.

Because the fifth grade requires a complete inheritance.

But what the Sanren Sixth Grade obtained was only a certain path in the "complete inheritance".

Pity.

Gu Xuejian felt sad secretly, and then said: "Don't worry, Ping An will go and see the scenery you have never seen before.

He possesses the innate shadow blood of our Shenmu Temple, and he will make great progress by practicing the skills of our Shenmu Temple.

only."

She paused for a moment, as if she was planning her words, and then said: "Li Yuan, you should also know that you need to devote yourself to practice.

Ping An is different from you. He has innate shadow blood and is a flawless jade embryo. Naturally, such a beautiful jade embryo needs to be carved in the most rigorous way in order to live up to it.

Do you understand what I mean? "

Li Yuan nodded and said, "I understand. How long will it take for Ping An to come back and reunite with my family?"

Gu Xue saw this and said: "There is no fixed date for this matter. If you practice successfully, you can come back. It may be one year or two. It's not that I don't care about my family."

But if such a beautiful child always thinks about family ties, he will have distracting thoughts.

When practicing, you always want to see your mother and father, so how can you practice well?

You are a genius, but unfortunately the technique you practice has no inheritance, so level six is ​​your limit.

But Ping An is different, he can go further and higher

He deserves a better world, and that world actually has nothing to do with you. "

"I'm sorry, these words are cruel, but I hope you can understand.

Because Ping An is really talented. "

The deputy head of the Shenmu Temple said these words calmly, and then said: "I am very satisfied with Ping An during this journey, not only with his talent, but also with his temperament.

Today, after I enter the third level gate, I will go through a special process and accept him as my direct disciple.

And as his father, even if you are not worshiping him, you can still bring your family to live behind the triple gate, but you are not allowed to meet him.

As for safety, you can rest assured.

The Ping An Society practices around the fourth-grade meat field at the core of my inner city. All the disciples in the sect know about this, and Yan Mu can also see it. "

After a brief silence, Li Yuandao said: "I still want to live with my family in Yizhongmen, so that it is convenient to go out."

Gu Xuejian was stunned for a moment and said, "Others are trying to get into the triple gate, but you don't want to come?"

Li Yuan shook his head gently, then took two steps back, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you so much, Master Gu, for your kindness."

Guxue saw it and said, "That's all."

After saying that, he took off a green token from his waist and handed it to Li Yuandao, "If there is an emergency, use this token to enter the inner door and someone will pass it on to me."

Then he said: "Peace, go say goodbye to your parents and family."

The little boy stood up with firm eyes, but when he arrived at Li Yuan's carriage and was hugged tightly by Xue Ning, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Xue Ning gently stroked his hair and said softly: "A real man has his ambitions in all directions. My family's peace has grown up."

Li Ping'an kept crying, and when he met Li Wei's eyes in the distance, they both started crying.

Li Yuan walked up to his son and said, "Do you remember the story dad told you?"

"Remember," Xiaopingan choked.

"Did you memorize everything Dad taught you to memorize quietly?"

"I've carried it." Xiaopingan nodded, tears rolling down, and then said in a childish voice, "You're in a hurry, don't meddle, the path is solid, it's hard to fight. When encountering injustice, think about self-reliance. When encountering difficulties, don't shut yourself away. . The enemy must not be established. If he is established, he will be in danger. If you strike first, you will need to spread ashes and go astray. If you retreat, you will advance. If you encounter an opportunity, you will gain something later."

He carried it gently.

Xue Ning glanced at her man speechlessly.

What does this teach?

The family talked for a while, and then Xiaopingan got out of the carriage. As he walked, he turned around again, knelt down to the carriage where Li Yuan and Xue Ning were sitting, and kowtowed three times before returning. Arriving at the carriage in front.

The carriage began to accelerate, passing through the bustling streets, and gradually disappeared behind the tall triple doors in front.

Li Yuan glanced at the family members in the carriage and said with a smile, "Let's go see our new home."

This is a quaint little house.

It is much smaller than Baihua Manor in Shanbao County, with only one front yard and one backyard.

But there is nothing that can be done about it. The inner city of Shenmu Temple is very expensive, so it is very difficult to live here.

Li Yuan and Xue Ning were considered very wealthy in Shanbao County, but they were nothing here. As the saying goes, a big tree attracts the wind. Since you don't need such a big house, then buy a smaller one.

Li Yuan is known as the "Ancestor of the Blood Sword" in Shanbao County, but the name of the "Ancestor of the Blood Sword" is not worthy of the name in the inner city of Shenmu Temple, so Li Yuan makes people stop calling him that in the future.

In this new city, the name "ancestor" would do him more harm than good.

As if he was living the life of an ordinary person again, Li Yuan looked at the house and divided the houses among his family members.

In the wing room in the front yard, Zhou Jia and some of Xue Ning's confidants still lived;

Aunt Wang was ill because of traveling all the way. Li Yuan asked her to live in the front yard with her children. After all, everyone in the front yard was busy with their own work, and there was no need to take care of them. In addition, Wang Dalang and Wang Chuliu already held important positions in the Chamber of Commerce. , I can also honor my mother well, which is considered a blessing.

In the backyard, Li Yuan and Xue Ning sleep in the main room, Mei Lan, Zhu Ju and Pang Yuanhua sleep in the west wing, while Xiao Lu and Nien Nian sleep in the east wing together.

Of course, there are three guard dogs in the backyard - the seventh-level monster "Black Marquis".

Li Yuan was busy for a while, and it was finally over.

By this time, it was already dark.

If it was the previous Xiaomofang, it would be pitch black; if it was in Silver Creek, there would be some lights in the distance.

But here, there is not much difference between being dark and not being dark.

The lights outside the wall are brightly lit, and there is endless noise and shouting.

Xue Ning took off her clothes early and went to bed wearing only her underwear.

Li Yuan also got on the couch and hugged her from behind.

Xue Ning looked a little depressed. Maybe it was because she was separated from her son. Maybe it was because she had been traveling for more than a month. She looked very tired, so after having feelings for her husband, she vented her anger and became crazy.

Afterwards, the couple slept as usual.

But in the middle of the night, Li Yuan was suddenly awakened by a series of heavy coughs.

When he opened his eyes, he saw that the woman in his arms was pale, and when he touched her forehead, it was actually hot.

"What's wrong? Sister Xue?"

"I cough, cough, cough. It's okay, it's okay."

"Stop talking, I'll get you some water first, and you can lie down."

Early the next morning.

Mrs. Xue's condition did not improve and she still had a high fever on her forehead.

Li Yuan hurriedly sent someone to ask a doctor nearby for consultation.

As a result, at noon, the person who went to invite him knelt down in front of Li Yuan's door and said, "Sir, I am incompetent and the doctor from Fuci Hall refused to come. He said that he wanted to consult his hall."

"Did you give me the money?"

"I've given you 10 taels of silver, but they don't want to come. I'm sorry, sir. I, I, I, I'll go and invite you again."

Li Yuan fell silent.

This place is no better than Shanbao County. Not to mention calling the wind and rain, it is nothing.

And he collapsed behind him. Xue Ning was half leaning on the bed and said weakly: "Mr., forget it. I know my body best. I'm just overworked, so I'll be fine after a rest."

The couple looked at each other, and Li Yuan said softly: "Then take a good rest."

Xue Ning nodded.

After Li Yuan left the house, he directly took out a copy of "Qiancao Fang" and started reading it.

In this world, medical skills are actually divided into ordinary medical skills and alchemy skills.

The former is only suitable for treating ordinary people or ninth-grade warriors, while the latter has no circulation at all on the market.

Three days later,

Li Yuan looked at the extra "Basic Medical Skills (1/10)" in his skill bar, and then at the "11262 points" of free points. He was not polite and directly invested "309" points, adding "Basic Medical Skills" Ascend to Dzogchen.

Suddenly, a large amount of memory and medical knowledge emerged.

At this moment, he has become an old doctor, and can even be said to be a miracle doctor in the eyes of ordinary people.

He returned to Xue Ning's body again.

At this time, Xue Ning had improved slightly, but she often had trouble sleeping at night and could not get better despite eating anything.

Li Yuanwang heard about it, and after some inspections, he breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just overwork, fatigue from travel, acclimatization, separation of flesh and blood, and strenuous exercise that lead to disease.

Mrs. Xue knew her man's miraculous powers, so she smiled weakly and said, "Did you see anything?"

Li Yuan nodded her eyebrows and said: "Don't worry about it on weekdays. Just have enough money to spend. From now on, you will be a wife at home. Don't go to the restaurant to do this or that."

"But my husband needs it."

"It doesn't matter. When you get here, you can eat, drink and have fun. You don't have to work hard anymore.

The matters at Hengwu Restaurant can be handled by the old people in the building. "

Li Yuan gently pressed Mrs. Xue's shoulders.

Mrs. Xue looked at her man stubbornly and said, "No, the Hengwu Restaurant you need is here, and it's time to start over again, and the competition here is very, very fierce, cough cough cough."

"obedient."

Li Yuan persuaded her.

After a while, he decided to go out to grab the medicine himself and observe the surrounding environment.

After exiting the door, turn left, pass through a small alley, and then reach the main road.

Li Yuan went all the way west.

On the road, there was constant shouting.

In addition to the daily trade of rice, pasta, clothes and cloth, there are also some trades that have never happened in Shanbao County or even Beijiang Prefecture, such as alchemy, and ninth- and eighth-grade monster meats are so carelessly hung in Ming City. selling

When Li Yuan passed a blacksmith shop, he couldn't help but stop.

The rhythmic sound of "ding-dong-dang-dang-dang" was coming from the blacksmith shop.

Two shirtless men with bulging muscles and bronzed skin took turns hitting the iron with hammers. Fiery winds of fire blew out from time to time, raising the surrounding temperature by more than ten degrees.

Compared to those in Shanbao County and Beijiang Prefecture, the blacksmith shop here is extremely busy.

Not only that, Li Yuan was also curious to see the sign hanging on the blacksmith shop.

The signboard reads "Ninth-grade, eighth-grade, and seventh-grade weapons are all available. There are also puppet masters to design mechanisms to meet your various needs." There are also a few conspicuous large characters on the top - "To undertake spiritual weapons, Let’s talk in detail.”

Li Yuan was waiting for "the seeds to bloom and bear fruit", but after contacting Gu Xuejian, he knew that "this matter must not be known to anyone with great influence."

He has fully confirmed the path to advance to the fifth level, and he also clearly knows that the fifth level requires a complete inheritance.

This kind of inheritance often represents a new big force.

Its follow-up involvement is so wide and complex that it is difficult to imagine.

What Li Yuan can be sure of is that once he reveals that he is a fifth-grade person, he will be controlled immediately and then questioned about the source of his power. If he reveals that he has created a new technique and drawn three visualization pictures, then the consequences may not necessarily be bad, but he will be involved in extremely complicated interpersonal relationships and whirlpools, and his future is uncertain. Completely out of control, unable to control himself from now on.

This is not what he wants.

And after chatting with Gu Xuejian, he also roughly knew that after reaching the fifth level, weapons have become secondary equipment, while primary equipment has become spiritual weapons.

There are two main casting materials for spiritual weapons, one is fine blood gold crystal, and the other is the source blood of fifth-grade warriors.

The rest is the craftsmanship of the armorer.

Therefore, every spiritual weapon is "bound". From the moment it is forged, its owner is already determined and cannot be changed.

Then, a very troublesome thing came for Li Yuan.

Li Yuan has entered the fifth level and will definitely need a spiritual weapon.

If he needed a spiritual weapon, he would definitely ask the weapon maker to make it.

Weaponsmiths are often attached to large forces.

When he asked a weapon maker to make a spiritual weapon, it was tantamount to revealing the secret that he was a fifth-grade warrior.

However, the good news is that he still has time to explore the situation and make preparations.

He hesitated briefly and walked into the blacksmith shop.

The blacksmith hammering the weapon embryos did not stop when he entered, but a middle-aged man with a smile came out to greet him, glanced at Li Yuan, and asked, "What do you need, sir?"

Li Yuan saluted and said, "I just saw the signboard of your shop saying that I will accept spiritual weapons, so I was curious."

The middle-aged man said proudly: "Master Zhu asked us to write it on the sign."

"Master Zhu, he should be a weapon maker, right? Is there a weapon maker stationed at your blacksmith shop?" Li Yuan asked curiously.

The middle-aged man was also quite enthusiastic and said: "We are just a branch. Strictly speaking, it is opened by Master Zhu."

"Then Master Zhu himself is inside the third level gate?"

"No, Master Zhu is in the mountains outside the inner city. His old man said that only by sensing the power of heaven and earth can he forge a cold and supreme spiritual weapon. Sir, you ask these questions, do you want to find Master Zhu to forge weapons?"

Li Yuandao: "I want to find him to forge a sixth-grade weapon for me to use."

He wanted to see the armorer first, so he found a reason.

"Sixth grade?!" The middle-aged man immediately paid tribute, saluted, and then said, "The guest please leave your name and contact information, and we will inform Master Zhu. If Master Zhu is willing to see you, then we Will inform you."

Li Yuan nodded, wrote "Li Yuan, Taohua Lane, No. 78" on the paper, and then left.

street

Voices from all sides converged into Li Yuan's ears.

"Have you heard? The deputy palace master of Shenmu Palace has accepted a direct disciple."

"Personal disciple? This is incredible. Which family is it from?"

"It doesn't belong to any family, it was taken from outside by the aunt's master. It is said that he is only seven years old."

"Seven years old?! How is that possible? Why?"

Another voice from the side intervened: "No. Which family's child is this? How come he was accepted as a disciple by the aunt's master at the age of seven? What kind of relationship is this?"

Another person laughed and said: "Relationship? Will Shenmu Temple accept disciples based on connections?"

"It's not related. How could he be accepted as a disciple at the age of seven? Even if he is a genius, we have so many geniuses here, why do we have to accept a seven-year-old child?

Seven years old? Isn't this even the ninth level? "

Another person asked: "Which family is the child from? Whose name is it?"

"I don't know, it's very mysterious. I heard that the aunt's master personally handled it."

Li Yuan listened silently.

After a while, Li Yuan came to Fuci Hall and started taking medicine directly.

"Sedum sedum? Red vermilion fruit? No, these two medicines have been sold out. Guests, please go elsewhere."

When he was taking medicine, the person at the counter said this directly, and then said, "I don't know where Dr. Yeluzi prescribed medicine. If you take it randomly, you will die. Don't regret it."

Just as he was talking, a maid in green hurriedly ran in from the other side and asked: "Doctor Ma, are my medicines ready?"

The man in front of the counter smiled and said, "Okay, okay." He took out a bunch of medicine bags tied with ropes from under the counter and handed them to the maid in green.

The maid in green said, "Is the red vermilion fruit good?"

The man in front of the counter smiled flatteringly: "It's a century old, guaranteed to be effective, haha."

Li Yuan glanced at this contemptuous thing, said nothing, and walked out silently.

However, he began to realize a new problem: he needed to find a suitable balance between low-key and high-profile. But if he pulled out the tiger skin that Gu Xuejian saw, it would be too showy.

Moreover, not only are the internal relationships of big forces complex, but their external relationships are also extremely complex.

When he pulled out Gu Xuejian's tiger skin, he also inherited part of Gu Xuejian's cause and effect.

What's more, Gu Xuejian was obviously hiding Li Ping'an in the snow and trying her best to hide the news about "innate shadow blood".

If he comes forward rashly, he will reveal the matter.

Then, he has to think through the consequences in advance.

On the way back, he took a detour to Hengwu Restaurant.

In Shanbao County, the famous Hengwu Restaurant, Baihua Winery, and Ningyu Chamber of Commerce are located on a deserted street.

The door is crowded and no one cares.

Guys shouting outside

"Hengwu Restaurant, time-honored wine, spring wine, spring water, spring dream, seasonal limited edition~~

Get drunk in a glass, pour in a pot, don’t miss it if you’re passing by, come and try it~~~”

He yelled very hard, but people passing by just looked at him, and no one came over.

The waiter shouted hoarsely and finally got the two guests into the house.

Not long after the guest entered, he came out cursing, shouting, "What the hell, what a bad wine, is this for people to drink?"

In the restaurant, someone immediately ran out to argue with the two guests, but the two guests were not weak and escaped quickly.

Li Yuan glanced silently and narrowed his eyes slightly.

When he returned to his house in Peach Blossom Lane, he unexpectedly found a luxurious carriage parked in front of the door.

When Li Yuan stepped into the house, he saw a man in blue drinking tea in the front hall. Behind the man in blue stood two burly men, but except for him, no one sat down.

The man in blue had a calm and dignified face, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, and a faint smile on his lips, while the number "1250~2780" was floating above his head.

Li Yuan frowned slightly, because this uninvited guest was actually a fifth-grade strong man.

It's just that it should be a fifth-grade "first source" or "three-source". After all, this data is a bit poor, and it is almost the same as his sixth-grade "2100~2850".

When the man in blue heard the noise and saw the person coming, he stood up unhurriedly, saluted, and said with a smile: "Guo Guangdan, the elder of Shenmu Temple, has met Mr. Li."

Li Yuan hurriedly saluted and said in a cliché: "I didn't know that Elder Guo was here, but I didn't come far to welcome him. I apologize for my sin."

Guo Guangdan smiled and said: "I don't want to talk in circles anymore."

Li Yuandao: "Please tell me."

Guo Guangdan said: "I have an unkind request for this trip, and I hope Mr. Li can help me."

After that, he dismissed everyone, and then said: "I know that the new direct disciple of my aunt is the son of my husband.

There are rumors in the palace that the aunt of the palace owes a favor to the husband.

That’s why I’m here, hoping that Mr. Sir will sell me this favor. I will be very grateful. "

Then he paused and said: "I am the ancestor of the Guo family, and I, the head of the Guo family, am also a disciple of the inner sect of the Shenmu Temple. This promotion means that I will become an elder. But according to the rules, half of the elders must agree. Can.

However, I am not afraid of Mr.’s jokes. The head of my Guo family is upright and has offended many people. It is definitely not okay for half of the elders to agree to this.

And there are rules in my sect. As long as the deputy hall master agrees, it is equivalent to the quota of three elders. Therefore, I came to ask my husband to sell this favor with a shameful face. Hope sir, don't refuse. "

Li Yuan's pupils narrowed and he said, "Let me think about it."

Guo Guangdan smiled and said: "I hope Mr. Li won't think about it for too long. I will come again in three days."

The tone was relaxed, but there was a hidden edge, and with a pressure that could not be refused, it fell on Li Yuan calmly.

P.S. There are a lot of places that need to be sorted out, so I’ll go a little slower.
