Chapter 17: Medicine Garden Residency
Who would have thought that Li Ergou, who was so happy the other day, would be so happy today.
Lu Chang'an lamented the unpredictability of the world.
When you are in the center of the world, you should not be in a state of flux.
Lu Chang'an said, "You don't have to be so pessimistic."
"Brother Lu, I know my fighting level, and it is hard to predict whether I will live or die when I go to the frontline mines this time."
Li Er Dog had a bitter face.
He was not sure of coming back alive, which is why he looked for the most trusted Lu Changan to entrust his will.
"Actually, you have one advantage."
"What merit?" Li Ergou froze.
"You are very self-aware and know how much you weigh."
Li Er Dog this person, want to bold no bold, fighting weak as a match, and there is no real battle.
"Lu big brother, what time is it, you still bury me?"
"This is not necessarily a bad thing for you to save your life."
"Cultivators are afraid of being too confident, thinking that they are proud of their peers and not taking ordinary cultivators into consideration. I don't know how many talented cultivators have fallen into carelessness and overturned their boats in the gutter." Lu Changan lamented, taking out two talismans from his storage bag and handing them to Li Ergou.
"This is a healing talisman and a wind speed talisman, big brother can only help you up to this point."
After all, we have known each other for eight years.
Perhaps, this is the last time to see Li Er Dog.
Lu Chang'an was not too stingy and the two talismans he gave were both of the same level of excellence.
Nowadays, he was considered a senior first-rank talisman master in the Mu Clan, and would occasionally concoct medium-grade talismans.
"Thank you, big brother."
Li Er Dog received the talisman and then looked at Lu Chang An with bated breath.
"Good, I promise you."
Lu Chang'an sighed, "If it really comes to that, big brother will take care of your wife and daughter a little bit as far as he can."
Only then did Li Er Dog turn his sadness into a smile, and a heavy stone fell to the ground in his heart.
Before parting, he could not help but ask:
"Mr. Lu, should I not change my name?"
Before changing his name.
Li Ergou had a smooth ride and didn't know how nourishing it was.
After he changed his name to "Li Changqing", he had one foot in the abyss.
"Fate, destiny, luck, it's all so mysterious, who can say?"
Lu Changan shook his head, unable to answer.
After all, he was only a JieDan stage in his previous life, and could not be called a great power.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, there were too many things that he could not understand.
......
The next day, Li Er Dog left Fei Yue Villa, followed the family's young and strong cultivators, and headed to the Purple Copper Mining Area.
Lu Chang'an eyed his back.
Contemplating for a long time.
He looked at the center of Lake Fei Yue, and saw the outline of the "Moon Island".
There, the Mu Clan's Foundation Establishment Ancestor resides in the dojo.
Lu Changan's soul is extraordinary, and he was able to enhance his divine sense to a higher level with the soul brand that was lit up in his first life in the Nine Seals Tablet.
He sensed that the Mu Clan Ancestor was still there, only his breath was getting weaker by the day.
Back then, in the Golden Cloud Valley, Lin Yi had asked about the gossip that the Mu Clan's old ancestor wouldn't live for more than ten years.
According to Lu Changan's remote sensing, it is not bad, about three to five years left.
This judgment is not only based on soul perception, but also on the Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique's ability to capture the aura of age and longevity.
Lu Chang'an's bottom line was that as long as this Foundation Establishment Ancestor could stabilize, he would remain on the sidelines and not rush to run away.
"However, three to five years from now. If the Mu Family doesn't give birth to a new Foundation Establishment Elder, it will never be able to protect the Second Order Spirit Vein, and at that time......"
Lu Chang'an withdrew his gaze and silently planned several scenarios in his heart.
......
Two months later.
There was no news from the frontline mines about Li Ergou.
Due to the distance of the mines, as an outsider, Lu Chang'an is relatively closed to news.
However, from time to time, the injured returned and younger Mu Clan cultivators went to the front line.
The tense situation eventually affected Lu Chang'an.
"Going to be stationed at the Medicine Garden?"
On this day, when Lu Chang'an was handing over a batch of talismans, he received an arrangement from the Mu Family's senior management.
Lu Chang'an's cultivation was less than the middle stage of Qi Refining, and as a talisman master, the family wouldn't let him go to the frontline until it was absolutely necessary.
Lu Chang'an's cultivation is not at the middle stage of Qi refining, as a talisman master, the family will not let him go to the front line until it is necessary.
For example, medicinal gardens, spiritual fields, water resources and so on.
The Mu Clan has a medicinal garden in a valley two hundred miles away from Fei Yue Villa.
Due to its proximity to the family's headquarters, it is relatively safe to be stationed at the medicinal garden.
"The medicine garden is located in a spiritual land with a spirit gathering array. You can also cultivate and make talismans there, and help the family guard the medicine garden in the meantime."
The family administrator who brought Lu Changan to the medicine garden explained thus.
Lu Chang'an had no reason to refuse.
Li Ergou has gone to the frontline, so it makes sense for him to work on the logistics of the medicinal garden.
As the distance is not far.
Lu Chang'an harnessed his Ebony Blade and flew directly to the Medicine Garden.
Along with him were two or three Mu Family teenagers with cultivation levels around the second level of Qi Refining.
The valley where the medicine garden is located has a natural formation that gathers the essence of the sun and the moon, making it suitable for planting medicinal herbs.
The entire medicinal garden covers an area of several thousand acres and is protected by a first-stage formation.
In addition to the divided piece of planting area, the medicinal garden has a piece of houses built in front of the stream, close to a small village. Entering the medicinal garden, each person was arranged with a separate wooden house.
The conditions were definitely not as good as Fei Yue Villa.
"Lu Chang'an."
Hearing someone call out to him, Lu Chang'an turned sideways to look.
It was a young man with a broken arm with a familiar face, with bandages wrapped around his body in many places.
"Mu Yunfei?"
Lu Chang'an recalled briefly and recognized the identity from the broken-armed youth's handsome face.
Eight years ago, Mu Yunfei had escorted their batch of Immortal Seedlings home, distributing spirit stones to them on the way.
The two of them had fought side by side.
Back then, Lu Chang'an had killed a Zheng Clan cultivator at the third level of qi cultivation with his first level of qi refining cultivation, which was appreciated by Mu Yunfei.
"Brother Yunfei, your arm, could it be in the frontline mining area......."
Lu Changan was slightly surprised.
"Well, I have to recuperate from my injury for a year, and the family head asked me to look after the medicine garden in the meantime. After all, this is an important place for the family, and the elders who watched over it before went to the frontline."
Mu Yunfei's voice was low and slightly hoarse.
No longer the family rookie from eight years ago.
Mu Yunfei is two years older than Lu Chang'an, with a peak cultivation at the sixth level of qi cultivation, and is considered the young and strong of the clan.
Lu Chang'an secretly thought, "Even the injured are on duty with illness, it seems that the Mu family is really short of manpower."
......
A few days later, Lu Chang'an adapted to life in the Medicine Garden.
The aura of the Pill Garden was not as good as Fei Yue Villa.
However, the rich grass and tree essence of this place is conducive to Lu Changan's cultivation of the wood system's Ancient Wood Evergreen Technique.
As a result, his cultivation speed was no less than that of Fei Yue Mountain Villa on a first-order spirit vein.
In the past few days, Lu Changan got acquainted with Mu Yunfei and inquired about the situation in the frontline mines.
In the depths of the Purple Copper mine, the accompanying Purple Heart Copper has indeed been discovered.
The Purple Heart Copper is not within the scope of the original agreement between the two clans.
Moreover, it is scattered and in small quantities, so it is easy to be hidden.
Nowadays, the cultivators of the two clans are digging for Purple Heart Copper by their own means, and sometimes there are fights.
"The Imperial Beast Zhou Family, as the adjudicator back then, didn't step in to stop it?"
Lu Changan asked Mu Yunfei curiously.
"The Imperial Beast Zhou Family?"
Mu Yunfei snorted, "That Zhou family clearly favors the Zheng family! A pair of sisters with spirit roots from the Zheng family married a young master from one of the Zhou family's lineages."
The Imperial Beast Zhou Family, as one of the seven great families, had a False Dan Realist sitting in the clan, and nearly ten people at the Foundation Establishment stage.
The power is huge, and the branch factions within the clan are relatively complicated.
Fortunately, only one of the veins was pulled in by the Zheng family, otherwise the Mu family could have just surrendered.
The reason why Mu Yunfei said that the Zhou family was biased.
Because the Zheng family has more young and strong cultivators, the family's oldest ancestor still has 20 to 30 years to live and is in better shape.
If the Zhou family doesn't do justice, and if they continue to consume so persistently, the Zheng family will have the opportunity to nibble away a little bit and annex the Mu family's industry.
"You don't have to worry, my Mu family and the 'Maple Leaf Huang family' are liaising, there is a possibility of marriage. The Huang family has three foundation builders in one family and is powerful."
Seemingly seeing Lu Chang'an's worries, Mu Yunfei divulged.
"Maple Leaf Yellow Family, joint marriage?"
Lu Chang'an pondered.
It seems that both the Zheng and Mu Families are pulling in powerful allies.
......
"Be nimble with your hands! Pick those Misty Orchid Grasses, Mister Ge is waiting for the alchemy."
On this day, Lu Chang'an was chatting with Mu Yunfei when not far away from the medicinal field area, an impatient raspy voice came.
"Who is he?"
Lu Chang'an glanced at an ancient-robed old man with puffy bags under his eyes in the distance.
He hadn't noticed before that there was actually a senior at the seventh level of Qi Practicing in the Medicine Garden.
"He is the 'Ge Yi' alchemist, one of the family's four guest ministers. Because of the recent shortage of pills, Elder Ge is permanently stationed here in the medicinal garden to make it easier to obtain materials for alchemy."
Mu Yunfei showed respect and introduced.
Lu Changan suddenly realized that it was a senior alchemist, no wonder he had such a big temper, yelling at a few Mu Clan teenagers like he was commanding his grandchildren.
After Ge Dan Shi left.
Mu Yunfei lowered his voice and said, "Ge Lao's temper is not good, you should be careful on weekdays, don't offend him. Ge Lao has a friendship with the old ancestor, and even the family head has to respect and yield three times." "Thank you brother Yunfei for reminding me."
Lu Changan nodded his head.
He was assisting the town guard at the Medicine Garden, cultivating in a low profile and not having to deal with Elder Ge.
......
The Pill Garden was at the back and had been peaceful and carefree.
Calmly practicing for half a year.
This day.
Lu Chang'an, who was sitting in his room and absorbing the spiritual qi of grass and trees, suddenly opened his dark pupils.
"Peak of the third level of qi cultivation."
Since he was a heavy cultivator, there was basically no bottleneck in the Qi Refining Stage.
Meaning, at any time, he can step into the middle stage of Qi Refining.
