Chapter 20 Family's Foundation Building Arrangements
Three days have passed since Lin Changqing had his epiphany.
When he got home that day, my second uncle shared the news of Lin Changqing's epiphany with his family, and everyone was overjoyed.
The mother was so happy that she hugged Lin Changqing and spun around, and Lin Changqing's face turned red.
After all, he was a man at heart, and his mother still treated him as a child. Fortunately, everyone calmed down after a while.
Then I was curious about Lin Changqing, what does it feel like to have an epiphany?
Lin Changqing said that his mind was empty and clear at that time, as if some shackles were opened, and the world became exceptionally clear.
Later, everyone in the tribe knew about it. His friends also came to see the novelty, making Lin Changqing famous again.
Everyone was curious about what enlightenment was like, and Lin Changqing shared his feelings at that time again.
Even the second elder of the Sutra Library came to Lin Changqing and asked him to record his enlightenment as much as possible so that it could be left for future generations to refer to.
Lin Changqing could only obey the order and record his insights carefully.
It was handed to the Second Elder, who took it and put it away solemnly. He expressed his gratitude to Lin Changqing for his selfless sharing, and also rewarded Lin Changqing with 500 contribution points on behalf of the family.
This approach made Lin Changqing identify more with his family.
After a few days of excitement, it finally became quiet again. Lin Changqing quickly learned a few spells.
The first one is definitely the flying technique, I have envied it hundreds of times. This time I finally got it.
The second is Earth Wall, a defensive spell that uses spiritual energy to condense into a solid earth wall that can withstand enemy attacks.
The third one is Golden Light Slash, an attack spell that uses spiritual energy to condense a golden light blade to slash or cut the enemy.
In terms of the inheritance of spiritual plants, the first-level middle-grade earth-covering technique makes turning the soil convenient, and it is also a spell that spiritual plant masters must learn.
You also need to continue practicing the Peiyuan Inducing Labor Technique, and quickly improve it to the level of inducing two months' growth progress each time you cast the spell.
Plus, if he could master the habits of more than 200 kinds of spiritual medicines and plants, he would be considered a first-class mid-level spiritual plant master.
Basic spells were not expensive, and four spells cost 20 contribution points. Lin Changqing took the identity jade token that was used to deduct the contribution points.
There were originally 280 points on it, plus 500 points from the family reward, minus 100 points from a bottle of top-grade Qi-gathering pills, and 20 points from learning spells this time. There were still 660 contribution points on the jade card, which was enough for Lin Changqing to practice for a long time.
Ever since his grandfather came back last time, Lin Changqing has already made an agreement with his family that he can earn cultivation resources by himself and should not delay the cultivation progress of his parents, second uncle, and aunt.
Seeing that he could earn 600 to 700 contribution points a year, which was already very good and almost the same as his father and second uncle's income, his family agreed.
He put away the jade identity card and said goodbye to the second elder.
Lin Changqing had to go back and practice the flying technique. He used the first-grade middle-grade purple bamboo sword given by his father, returned to the practice room at home, and began to study the flying technique.
I have a good understanding. After half a day, I can use the purple bamboo sword to sway half a meter off the ground and start flying. But I dare not fly too high now, for fear of falling. I need to practice slowly and increase the height after I am proficient.
But I was really interested in flying, and the next day I practiced in the yard, and I was about two or three meters above the ground, but I didn't dare to fly too fast.
When his mother and aunt saw him start to learn how to fly, they came over to share their experiences and demonstrated in person. With someone to teach him, he learned faster.
Lin Changqing has become obsessed with flying recently. Whenever he has time, he flies around Zushan.
He even showed off in front of his friends to satisfy his vanity, and indirectly urged his friends to practice hard.
This made them so angry that they practiced harder, hoping to defeat Lin Changqing again.
Time passed slowly and soon it was the end of the year.
Lin Changqing especially liked to stand on Ao Yun Peak and look towards the direction of the mountain gate, always hoping to see the monster hunting team returning.
This year's monster hunting team is a little later than last year, and Lin Changqing began to worry.
Fortunately, two days later, the monster hunting team finally returned.
Lin Changqing heaved a sigh of relief, but before he reached the family square, he saw three golden-winged birds, one big and two small, circling and playing in the sky.
Now everyone already knows these golden-winged birds, and they all know that they are the spiritual animals raised by Lin Changqing. They are also very smart, and every time they catch insects, they will not harm the spiritual medicines and plants. They are very popular among spiritual plant masters.
Some people wanted to reserve Chuyi's offspring, but Lin Changqing didn't agree. He just said he would see the situation later.
I found my father's seat, squeezed in, and leaned against him. Just like before, I listened quietly to the patriarch's speech on the stage.
This year, two members of the demon hunting team died and five were injured. It was better than last year. But when we heard about the casualties, the atmosphere was still quite heavy.
After summarizing the harvest and arranging for people to exchange contribution points, the monster hunting team was allowed to go back and rest.
I went to the square to meet my mother and aunt. Seeing my father return safely, everyone was very happy and started walking home.
After returning home, my father washed up and felt better, and everyone gathered together.
My father began to share his experience. He first praised Chuwu and said that it performed very well this time.
It has discovered monsters many times in advance and warned the location of the monsters in time. With it, you will basically not be ambushed.
It is also very helpful in tracking monsters. With a pair of eyes watching from high in the sky, it is basically difficult for monsters to escape.
This year, thanks to the help of the fifth day of the first lunar month, I have gained more than before. This year, I estimate that I will have about 800 contribution points.
And on the fifth day of the first lunar month, he received unanimous praise from the demon hunting team his father was in. After all, the safety was improved and the income also increased, so everyone had to praise it.
Lin Changqing estimated that now, more people would target Chuyi and his descendants.
However, if it can reduce the casualties among the clan members, Lin Changqing is also willing to hand over Chuyi and his descendants to the family.
However, the wingspan of the fifth and sixth day is only about 40 cm, which is much weaker than the first day. Should we discuss with grandpa and feed each of them a red fruit?
In the evening, the family gathered together for a lively dinner. Grandpa had already privately given a red fruit to my father, and he saw that the atmosphere was almost right.
Grandpa coughed lightly. Everyone knew that Grandpa had something to say.
Everyone keep quiet and wait for grandpa to speak.
Grandpa first looked at everyone carefully and said: Mao Ting has already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. Now he must work hard to polish his spiritual energy to perfection in preparation for building the foundation.
The family scripture pavilion has the foundation-building experience of our ancestors. You should read more and comprehend carefully. If you have any questions, you can ask me. You must know them clearly. Strive to succeed in building the foundation in one go."
My aunt nodded and said, "Okay, I understand. I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations."
Grandpa went on to say, "In another year, there will be an auction in the city market of Pingyang Prefecture, but your fifth uncle's family has worked hard for forty years for this foundation-building pill, and we cannot compete with him.
And if the family spirit stones are insufficient, we will help if needed. I will discuss this with the clan leader first.
There will also be an auction in Jinzhou Prefecture in two years. My idea is that I will take Mao Ting to rent a cave in the market town of Jinzhou Prefecture first.
If you can get the foundation-building pill, build your foundation in the market town of Jinzhou City, and come back when you succeed."
After saying this, he paused to give everyone some time to digest the thought.
After waiting for a while, Grandpa looked at his parents and second uncle, and then continued, "You three should also start preparing for foundation building.
There is a third-level spiritual plant in the Herb Garden that I have nurtured for decades. It is almost mature. When the time comes, I will ask my great-grandmother to exchange it for three Foundation Establishment Pills.
Each of you has one, and you will have the opportunity to build a foundation."
Everyone was shocked and a little bit unable to believe it, but the mother was the one who reacted faster.
The mother said, "Give my foundation-building pill to Qing'er!"
Grandpa shook his head and said, "Qing'er, it's too early. Besides, if there are five foundation-building cultivators in the family, are you still worried about not being able to earn a foundation-building pill?
If you are thinking about Qing'er, you must succeed in building your foundation in one go, and then Qing'er's foundation-building pill will be secured."
After hearing what grandpa said, the three of them were silent, looked at each other, and made some kind of decision.
