On Yueshan Mountain, Plum Breaking Sect leader Guan Xingzhou was meditating under a plum tree. He suddenly opened his eyes and turned his fingertips. The yellowed plums were broken off the branches one by one. He rolled them up with his big sleeves and put them into the bamboo basket next to him. In the blink of an eye, half of the basket was taken.
Carefully picking up the plums in the basket, he found that seven Chengdu were separated one by one, but 30% were clustered together, not completely separated from the same branch, which made him not very satisfied. Compared with last year, there is not much progress in cultivation.
This is normal. There are three phases of Foundation Establishment, the early, middle and late stages. Each phase can trap an individual to death, and may be difficult to overcome in his lifetime. But I have already arrived at Foundation Establishment Late Stage, but I am not very old, and I am not yet sixty years old. What reason is there not to rush towards the golden elixir?
I also thought about my uncle Liu Xiaolou who just left two days ago. I wonder if he can persuade the Su family to take a crucial step and change the name to Mei Ling? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my head secretly. It might be a bit fanciful to expect a son-in-law to influence this matter. It's just that the madam also said that a dead horse should be treated as a living horse. Otherwise, when will the daughter's marriage be finalized?
Looking at the basket full of plums, he sighed again. Obviously there are plum trees growing on his mountain, so this should be called Meiling. But there is not a single one on the other side of Meiling, so what is it called Meiling? It doesn't live up to its name!
If one day Mei Ling changes its name, I will change Yueshan to Meishan, and Hushan Moon Picking Sect will naturally not be in conflict with myself, and we will be at peace with each other. After decades of fighting, I've had enough...
While he was daydreaming, a disciple came to report that Mr. Su's uncle Liu Xiaolou was paying homage to the mountain, so Guan Xingzhou got up and went to the reception hall to meet the guests.
After meeting and asking about the purpose of their visit, Liu Xiaolou said, "I have been discussing this matter with my uncle-in-law these past two days. If it is as Sect Master Guan said, the Su family is in great embarrassment. I will try my best to persuade him."
Guan Xingzhou sighed secretly and forced a smile, "My uncle is very thoughtful, and everyone in our sect is sincerely grateful for their painstaking efforts. Brother Brother Tan, I can rest assured that our sect will treat him well. After three to five months, when Second Master will no longer interfere, we will let him go down the mountain."
Three months turned into three or five months?
Liu Xiaolou said, "I originally wanted to wait for my old father-in-law to come back to the mountain to persuade me again, but I was afraid of wasting time, so I made a special trip to Danxia Mountain to give Elder Cai some advice..."
Guan Xingzhou was refreshed. "What did Elder Cai say?"
Liu Xiaolou said, "But I didn't say it clearly. I just said that I should think about it and discuss it after considering it thoroughly."
Guan Xingzhou asked, "It's better to keep thinking about it like this? If you need my help, please just give me your orders."
Liu Xiaolou said, "Come to think of it, it's just some management. Let's work together to get some spiritual stones and try to make this happen."
Elder Cai lives in Danxia Cave-Heaven for a long time. He does not need spiritual stones for his own practice, but it is common for them to be used to reward his disciples.
Liu Xiaolou has already thought about it, this number cannot be too much, just enough, otherwise Guan Xingzhou will not be able to get rid of the knot in his heart, and it will be easy for him to get into trouble in the future. The best number is that he doesn't feel bad when he takes it out, and he won't publicize it everywhere. This number is difficult to guess and needs to be tested on the spot.
"Come to think of it, the total number is about fifty..."
Seeing Guan Xingzhou's face change slightly, he immediately lowered his code. "Of course, it is impossible for your sect to pay for all of this spiritual stone. I should try my best, and I will pay for 20 of them..."
Continuing to observe the words and expressions, seeing that Guan Xingzhou was still hesitant, he said, "For the remaining thirty, I plan to share it with the three factions. Each one will cost ten yuan. I don't know what your wishes are."
Guan Xingzhou then regained his smile, "It just cost my uncle a lot of money, and I feel uneasy."
Liu Xiaolou said, "Whatever Sect Master Guan said, I'm trying to save my friend... But the ugly words are ahead. The spirit stone is just a way to explore. Whether it can be completed is not the issue. Elder Cai doesn't like this thing either..."
Please visit the latest address Guan Xingzhou immediately expressed his position. "This is natural."
Liu Xiaolou added, "And I can only try my best to help Elder Cai come forward. Whether it succeeds or not depends on my father-in-law and uncle. This requires Sect Master Guan, Mei Ling Sect Master Liang, and Hushan Sect Master Jin to work hard together."
Guan Xingzhou said, "It is said that this is a major matter for the three factions, but the three of us usually have many disagreements. This time, we pressured Mei Ling to change the name first. It's okay for Senior Sister Jin in Hushan, but for Mei Ling Sect Master Liang, I'm afraid..."
Liu Xiaolou sighed, "It's just a name, but it brings out so many rights and wrongs..."
Guan Xingzhou immediately expressed his position. "I dare not say anything else, but as long as Mei Ling changes his name, I, Yueshan, will also change my name."
Liu Xiaolou praised, "Sect Master Guan has a profound understanding of justice, which is admirable."
After going down the mountain, holding the ten spiritual stones given by Guan Xingzhou in his arms, Liu Xiaolou suddenly felt very comfortable. Halfway through, he felt something in his heart, thought for a long time, changed the direction, and headed straight for Hushan.
At the wedding ceremony at the beginning of the year and at the Danxia Sect Millennium Ceremony last month, Liu Xiaolou had seen Sect Master Jin from Hushan Moon Picking Sect. This female leader is over seventy years old, but she looks like she is forty years old.
For practitioners, generally after Foundation Establishment, facial aging will suddenly slow down, especially in female practitioners. Many female cultivators are obviously very old, but they don't look older. They seem to be very young. This is because Foundation Establishment was born early.
Such as Su Wuniang, Su Jiuniang, and Foundation Establishment who are around twenty years old. One of the great benefits brought to them by such amazing talents is that even when they are forty or fifty years old, they look about the same as they are in their twenties. When they are seventy or eighty years old, they look like they are in their thirties. Even if they are over a hundred years old, they will never look more than forty.
Sect Master Jin's cultivation improved rapidly when he was young, and he entered Foundation Establishment before he was forty, so his appearance has been maintained very well, and he still looks like he is in his forties.
But she felt like an unsheathed sword to Liu Xiaolou. It was uncomfortable to be around her.
This Sect Master Jin's disdain for Liu Xiaolou was undisguised. Liu Xiaolou completely understood her in the previous two encounters, so he didn't dare to provoke her. But today was different. When he came over, he was already prepared to be despised.
"My uncle is not at Shenwu Mountain to serve Fifth Lady, so how come he has time to come to my Hushan Mountain?" Sect Master Jin simply did not let Liu Xiaolou in, but blocked the mountain gate.
If you don't let me in, don't let me in. Anyway, it's just a matter of a few words. Liu Xiaolou didn't want to find fault with her words. Since she was the one who barged in, of course she had the consciousness of being looked down upon. So she went straight to the topic. "Plum Breaking Sect Master Guan and I have discussed something. I want the three factions to put aside their past grudges and let go of the past. We plan to start with the name of the mountain. I will persuade Elder Cai to come forward and change the name of Mei Ling. Sect Master Guan will also give up the name of Yueshan. I am here to ask if your faction is willing to change the name of Hushan. In this way, everyone will no longer be hindered by the name of the sect."
Sect Master Jin was startled. "Guan Xingzhou is going to give in?"
Liu Xiaolou sighed, "Sect Master Jin, be more open-minded and everyone take a step back. Is it to go further? Is it okay to accept the weak or not?"
Sect Master Jin sneered, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Elder Cai are you willing to do this?"
Liu Xiaolou said, "We have already talked about it once, and it is very possible. Of course, we need a sum of spiritual stones. I will pay twenty yuan out of my own pocket, and each of the three of you will contribute ten yuan. I can't guarantee whether it will happen in the end, but I will try my best to make it happen. Just ask Sect Master Jin if you are willing?"
"Why do you persuade Elder Cai?"
"I'm sorry Sect Master Jin, there are some things that are hard to talk about, but within five days, Elder Cai will definitely express something, otherwise I will return the spirit stone as it is!"
