The Immortal Spiritual Picture

Chapter 198 Blood and Kinship

"Yes, he's still a big fat sheep! Looking at their clothes, they are from the Gu family in the Jiuqi Mountains."

After hearing Black Monkey's words, monk surnamed Zhang's eyes lit up and he whispered:

"I heard that the Gu family established their clan with elixirs. It seems that we can make a fortune again this time! It would be great if we could obtain the inheritance of alchemy from them."

The monk surnamed Cheng shook his head. If inheritance were so easy to obtain, all kinds of inheritance would have been flying all over the sky.

He asked across the formation:

"Among those Gu family members, are there any Foundation-building monks?"

"No, they are all in the later stage of Qi training." Black Monkey replied.

"Okay, I understand, please step back first!

I'll go out right away, and I'll inform Fellow Daoist Zhang. It just so happens that I have something to do with him. "

"Yes, please trouble me, Senior Cheng."

After the black monkey finished speaking, he retreated. He was also very happy:

That's a monk from the Gu family! If they had the Foundation Establishment Pill, wouldn't I have a chance to establish the Foundation!

Although this possibility is unlikely, but what if!

Even if you don’t have the Foundation Establishment Pill, it would be nice to get other pills!

Those members of the Gu family are only in the Qi-training stage, and even the three seniors in the Foundation-building stage look down on the elixirs they carry, and yet he has repeatedly made meritorious deeds...

Black Monkey thought, feeling that the days were getting more and more promising.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

The monks of the Gu family were very excited after hearing Gu Changhuan's plan to "eliminate demons and protect the Tao". They dared to come to the Qianlong Mountains to search for spiritual objects. Naturally, they are not cowards. Moreover, it is much more interesting to hunt for evil than to search for spiritual objects. .

There will be more gains.

As for the effects of the stagnant pill, there is no need to worry. Gu Changhuan had already made them hold their breath and taken the antidote before.

In fact, to take a step back, this kind of first-level middle-grade elixir is not very effective for monks in the late stage of Qi training.

But just in case, Gu Changhuan still found the antidote to the stagnation pill that he had refined a long time ago from the corner of his storage bag and asked them to take it.

They also received assistance from Gu Changhuan: each person had two second-level low-grade spiritual talismans. If there were too many people on the other side, they would directly use the spiritual talismans to bombard them.

They were all shocked by the wealthy behavior of Gu Changhuan. Most monks used spiritual talismans as their trump card in fighting, but Gu Changhuan's intention was to let them use the spiritual talismans to attack people from the beginning...

Although they did not buy this spiritual talisman with spirit stones, whenever they think about the market price of the second-level spiritual talisman, they all feel pain in their flesh.

In comparison, Gu Changyue was much calmer.

She had once seen Gu Changde hit a monster beast with a dozen second-level middle-grade golden arrow talismans. The rain of golden arrows was still fresh in her memory.

But what she remembers the most is the scene where Gu Changhuan fought against the third-level mid-level demon bird. She doesn’t know what her strength will be like after brother Chang Cheng builds the foundation...

As Gu Changyue thought about it, his mind drifted away.

"Chang Yue!" Gu Shiyou patted her shoulder.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Gu Changyue came back to his senses.

Gu Shiyou smiled strangely and said teasingly:

"It's not like me, but you, who are you thinking about? Your face is red."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Gu Changyue in pretense of surprise, then at Gu Changhuan, and said mysteriously:

"You're not attracted to Chang Huan, are you?

If that's the case, you have to take the initiative. Chang Huan looks smart, but he is actually just a piece of wood. "

Gu Changyue breathed a sigh of relief and said with a mixture of laughter and tears:

"Little uncle, you think too much."

Gu Shiyou rolled his eyes,

"That's because you were thinking about Chang Cheng. You kept talking about him along the way!"

Gu Changyue's face suddenly turned red. She stamped her feet and said urgently in a low voice:

"Little uncle, stop talking! Why are you a grown man so nosy!" Tianlai Novel Network

Seeing that he guessed correctly, Gu Shiyou shook his head and said:

"Gossip is human nature, regardless of gender or cultivation level."

Then his expression changed and he asked seriously:

"Then you and Chang Cheng have no direct blood relatives within three generations, right?"

According to family rules, if people of the same clan want to become Taoist couples, they cannot have direct blood relatives within three generations.

In fact, as a family that cultivates immortality, the Gu family does not want family monks to become Taoist couples. After all, it involves various issues such as seniority ethics.

However, it would be too arbitrary to apply it across the board, so a lot of rules were set, the most important of which was that both parties were not allowed to become Taoist couples if they were directly related by blood within three generations.

Gu Changyue shook his head,

"I once checked my family's genealogy and discovered that my great-great-grandfather was actually a descendant of the Gu family. My great-grandfather, grandfather and father also married women from the Gu family."

Gu Changyue's face turned red at the end. In fact, not only that, she also quietly looked through the genealogy of Gu Changcheng's family and asked her father to confirm that she and Gu Changcheng were indeed not directly related by blood within three generations. Calm down.

It's just a girl like her looking through the family tree of the family she likes...

It’s really hard to say this.

Gu Shiyou understood that this situation was actually quite common.

In order to improve the bloodline of their own mortals, the Xiuxian family often marries with mortals from other families. Some casual cultivators are also willing to let their descendants without spiritual roots marry or marry into the Xiuxian family. In this case, they themselves can still have some connections with the Xiuxian family. relation.

If the children strive to give birth to a child with spiritual roots, maybe they themselves can join the cultivating family.

Gu Shiyou's mother was the child of a casual cultivator, but she had no spiritual roots. In the end, she was taken as a concubine by Gu Shiyou's father and gave birth to three children, the youngest of whom was Gu Shiyou.

After Gu Shiyou was found to have spiritual roots, Gu Shiyou's grandfather also benefited from it and became a small manager of one of the Gu family's industries. Although he had no real power, he had a spiritual vein to live in and practice, and he didn't have to sleep in the open all day and run around.

As for the direct and collateral branches mentioned by Gu Changyue, that was a longer time ago.

The Gu family was indeed divided into direct and collateral branches at the beginning. After all, the first generation of the Gu family had countless concubines in order to expand the family, and even the ancestor of the Gu family had spent the night with many mortal women in order to expand the family.

Then it evolved into the situation that the children born to cultivators with spiritual roots were direct, and the children born to mortals with spiritual roots were collateral.

The treatment of direct and collateral branches was also different. Whether it was a cultivator or a mortal, resources were tilted towards the direct.

However, mortals reproduce too quickly, with a generation every ten years or so. Soon, the number of cultivators from the side branches far exceeded that of the direct line.

The head of the Gu family at that time was also a direct line, but he decisively abolished the difference between the direct line and the side branches.

So later, there was no distinction between the direct line and the side branches.

If we examine it carefully, I am afraid that few of the current foundation-building cultivators in the Gu family are direct line.
