Journey To Longevity

"I'll send someone over when I get back. If the baby is really extraordinary, I'll bring it back to the family as soon as possible. Worldly children are easy to break and hard to grow, and the deep palace is the most gloomy and cold, especially intrigues. I'm afraid that some people will move. I have thoughts." Zhang Tianwu responded.

Zhang Shiping took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said slowly: "Why, what you said, is there something wrong there? I remember when Zhang Guochu first came to power, he once ordered a sentence of 'government with benevolence' as an admonishment , Could it be that they have all forgotten it?"

"Old Ancestor, this happened nearly two hundred years ago." Zhang Tianwu sighed.

In the secular world, it is common to have children at twenty, and these two hundred years are enough for a family to pass on eight or nine generations. However, for a true monarch with a lifespan of two or three thousand years, it is only a slightly longer period of time.

"Then find someone from Zhang Guo's lineage to be in charge. If that lineage is rotten from the root, then replace them all. It's no big deal. You, the Jindan Daoist, are so obtrusive. With the backing of the family, how many powerful families in the world dare to act recklessly, without these constraints, they can't do things well, so what's the use of it. If this kind of thing spreads, it will only make people laugh!" Zhang Shiping's tone was slightly Cold, he also understands that power is the most corrupting thing.

"Understood." Zhang Tianwu said.

"I'm not going to inquire about how much you have benefited from them, or what the origin is, and these trivial matters should be dealt with as soon as possible." Zhang Shiping said.

"Ancestor, in fact, the current emperor of Zhang Guo is my grandson in terms of seniority." Zhang Tianwu said with some embarrassment.

"Out of the five clothes, he is just a member of the clan, and this person has no spiritual roots, so he should be treated according to the clan's clan rules for secular veins." Zhang Shiping said disapprovingly.

"Yes." Zhang Tianwu replied.

Which family in the world of cultivating immortals has no branch in the secular world, so the family rules of the cultivating family are divided into two types.

For example, the main branch of the Zhang family does not have those strict moral laws for monks. After all, monks are well-regulated people in this southern state, and these things cannot be restrained on their heads. In addition, the Zhang family is the Yuanying family, which is the top level in Nanzhou.

But even so, the Zhang family monks still need to abide by the rules that all monks in the world of cultivating immortals follow, and don't do those things that kill people and steal goods, at least on the surface.

Therefore, the purpose of the family rules established by the Zhang family is to allow those monks with low aptitude and cultivation to keep their own place, and the foundation-building monks who are higher are to encourage them to go up and practice.

As for the three Jindan monks Zheng Hengyun, Zhang Tianwu, and Zhang Bixing, just let them not provoke the Yuanying monk.

As for Nascent Soul cultivators like Zhang Shiping, no rules can be restrained for a long time.

However, Zhenjun has a long lifespan, and he has set a rule for himself, only the word "cautious and independent".

Once a high-level monk crosses his bottom line too easily, it will be a disaster for himself or others.

In addition, the second kind of rules specially set up for the secular branch, are either loose or strict, but the most important thing is to let the secular branch supply more of the main branch and ensure that you have spiritual roots There is a steady stream of clansmen.

Maybe these people have already been out of the main vein for five times, and there are countless generations behind.

But these are not big things.

As long as children with spiritual roots in the secular world are taken to practice in the main vein and taught since childhood, they will at least stand on the side of the main vein when they grow up.

"Besides these few things, if there is anything else to say, let's talk about it together." Zhang Shiping said.

"Recently, there have been some changes in the Valley of Resentment in Hengzhou City of Zhang Guo. There is a red light flashing from time to time, and there is a hint of wildness flowing out. The disciples guarding there often hear the roar of beasts like thunder. A few days ago , I went there specifically to check, and found that the situation is indeed the case, there are indeed traces of wild beasts in the valley, it should be fire monsters." Zhang Tianwu said.

"Is there any sign of the ancient magic circle being broken?" Zhang Shiping asked with a smile.

"Not long after I passed by, the ancient array did show signs of being broken at night, but I shot it immediately, and it was temporarily stabilized." Zhang Tianwu showed a look of resentment.

"If there are two more people to go there, divide it into two places, one far and one near, to guard. If there is any vision, come back in time to report. If there is nothing else, then go down." Zhang Shiping stood up and faced the lake with his hands behind his back, and said slowly.

"As ordered."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Tianwu and Zhang Tianming got up and bowed to leave.

...

...

After the two left, Jiang Ru walked up to Zhang Shiping, thought about it, and asked, "Master, what's wrong with Zhang Guo's resentment?"

"The fire veins in the valley here may be connected to the barbarian domain. At the Yutai meeting of Mingxin Peak a few days ago, Luo Shan once said in front of everyone that Misty Valley used the method to overthrow Nanzhou. A fellow Taoist sent a letter to inquire about this. After all, Misty Valley has guarded the border of the Barbarian Region for three thousand years, and only they have the possibility to secretly introduce the ancient energy into the ground veins. Hundreds of years ago, Nanzhou More than 200 places once exploded with barbaric anger almost at the same time, followed by Qinghe Jifeng and the seniors of other sects who secretly investigated for several years, and the follow-up was nothing, which is very abnormal!" Zhang Shiping said calmly Said.

"Master said so, then this matter is really tricked by Misty Valley. It's just that it's good for them. Once the barbaric spirit infects the ground veins, the whole Nanzhou's spiritual energy will collapse. They won't be able to live anywhere!" Jiang Si questioned.

"As long as other people have scruples, it will be fine. Thousands of years ago, Misty Valley's strength was superior, and it faintly overwhelmed our four sects. Fortunately, Meng Hai and Yin Yu are approaching their lives, and they will die soon. What's more, the Wrathful Fire Valley is still the place where Misty Valley secretly manages, but it was discovered by the ancestor Qinghe later. It is almost obvious that there is a false spirit derived from the sun's fine fire at the bottom of Misty Valley. The traces of fire obviously want to lure me into action, but in fact they just want to drag Xuanyuanzong into the water. After I come back, I will tell Tianfeng to know about it." Zhang Shiping said here, and chuckled.

Then he leaned on the chair, looked down at the groups of colorful koi in the lake, took out a spirit stone, put it in his hand and gently grasped it, the spirit powder sprinkled down.

The fish are fighting for food.

After a while, he continued: "After Tianfeng learned about this, he said that he wanted to work with me to obtain the spiritual fire, but now it has been so long, and there is no movement. After all, What Misty Valley has arranged for the past three thousand years may have been known to the leaders of the four generations, but they just don’t want to reveal it.”

"Then what if Misty Valley really choleras Nanzhou with its ancient aura?" Jiang Si asked.

"Since Tianfeng refuses to say it clearly, then I will pretend that I don't know, and I won't point it out, so as not to embarrass everyone." Zhang Shiping said calmly.

"Master, even if it's just a false spirit fire derived from a ray of the sun's essence fire, it was a rare thing in ancient times! Wouldn't it be a pity if you missed it?" Bai Qi asked in a buzzing voice.

Hearing this, both Zhang Shiping and Jiang Xi smiled, looking disapproving.

"Yellow-haired monster, what are you laughing at?" Bai Qi said angrily.

"Tell it about it." Zhang Shiping said with a smile.

"Silly cat, all the things related to the true spirit are rare treasures in the world. But treasures are hard to come by. If the spirit fire wants to take shape, according to the records in the ancient books, it takes at least four or five hundred years to conceive. In the past 7,000 years in the small world, the true spirit has only appeared twice, the former was more than 6,000 years ago, and the latest one was 300 years ago, so there is no need to rush!" Jiang Si said with a smile.

It wanted to reach out to touch Bai Qi's tiger head, but was thrown away by him.
