Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 69 Tracking
Why did Zhou Zhengkang go to the Spirit Beast Pavilion?
Zhou Chun didn't think about it until he returned to the Spirit Beast House.

"Uncle Sixteen, has anyone from the family been to the store in the past few days?"

Zhou Chun, who came back to the store, hesitated for a while, but couldn't help asking Zhou Jiasheng about it.

"No, why did you suddenly ask this?"

Zhou Jiasheng looked at Zhou Chun suspiciously, not understanding what he meant.

"It's nothing, just treat it like a nephew and didn't ask!"

Zhou Chun's mouth moved, but finally he shook his head slightly, not saying what he saw Zhou Zhengkang.

No matter what Zhou Zhengkang did in the Spirit Beast Pavilion, it was not easy for him to say it, and he still said it behind his back in front of other elders.

Zhou Chun suffered a similar loss in his last life, so of course he can't make the same mistake again now.

When Zhou Jiasheng saw what he said, after frowning slightly, he also nodded and said: "Since it's nothing, let's watch the store and do things carefully."

"Yes."

Zhou Chun responded, and immediately sat down in the store.

Another day passed like this, and he did not see Zhou Zhengkang coming to the Spirit Beast House.

On the third day, Zhou Chun finally waited for that Sanshuluo Guangshun to come to the door, but gave him the monster meat again.

"Oh, is it this kind of strange fish again this time? It seems that the last time Fellow Daoist Luo went to Tianxian Tower, it was a waste of time!"

In the backyard of Lingshouzhai, Zhou Chun looked at the two corpses of strange fish that Luo Guangshun had packed in a wooden box, his eyes flashed strangely, and he couldn't help laughing and teasing each other.

Hearing Zhou Chun's words, Luo Guangshun's face suddenly showed embarrassment.

But what kind of embarrassing experience has he never had in the decades of cultivating the immortal world?
Soon, he waved his hand to Zhou Chun with a wry smile and said, "Don't mention it, Luo was almost beaten by the shopkeeper of Tianxian Tower last time, so he won't dare to go again in the future!"

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, fellow Daoist Luo. The Heavenly Immortal Tower doesn't accept the fish, but Zhou still accepts it. Zhou's two spiritual pets usually eat too much animal meat, so this fish tastes really good. Quite like."

When Luo Guangshun heard the words, he immediately expressed gratitude and said, "With the words of Fellow Daoist Zhou, Luo can feel at ease."

"Then fellow Daoist Luo, can you bring a few more of these strange fish when you come over next time? The spirit beasts raised by an elder in Zhou have become more and more hungry recently, and many animals refuse to eat them. If the corpse of a strange fish passes by, I think the old man will be very happy!"

When Zhou Chun said this, he stretched out his hand and gestured again: "If Fellow Daoist Luo can send three or four of these strange fish carcasses within ten days, Zhou can give you an extra half of the price."

Hearing his words, Luo Guangshun's eyes lit up immediately, and he said hastily, "You really mean what Fellow Daoist Zhou said?"

After finishing speaking, he quickly waved his hands and said, "I'm not doubting Fellow Daoist Zhou, but I just want to ask Fellow Daoist Zhou if he only needs three or four corpses of this strange fish, or the more the better?"

"Three or four are enough. If there are more, Zhou won't have the financial resources to buy them."

Zhou Chun shook his head, and said something that disappointed Luo Guangshun.

There was a flash of disappointment in his eyes, and he nodded lightly and said, "Okay, within ten days, Luo will definitely deliver the things to Fellow Daoist Zhou!"

"Then Zhou will be waiting for good news from Fellow Daoist Luo."

Zhou Chun smiled and nodded, Dang even sent Luo Guangshun out of the shop himself.

Besides, Luo Guangshun did not leave Fangshi immediately after leaving the Spirit Beast House, but went to the inn to meditate and practice.

After practicing like this for more than two hours, he came out and waited somewhere in Fangshi.

Waiting until the other three monks who came to Fangshi with him all came here, the four of them left Fangshi together again.

The four of them are veterans who have been cultivating immortals for decades. They have entered and exited Hongyafang City no less than a hundred times, and they have even figured out relatively safe routes.

Coupled with the fact that the four of them are not weak in their cultivation bases, they are not something that ordinary bandit cultivators can chew on, so the way to leave Fangshi is very smooth.

After arriving outside the Red Rock Mountain Range, the four of them dispersed and went back to their respective residences.

Because they cannot practice in the wild, the residences of casual practitioners are also different.

Some people like to be pure, so they often dig caves and stone rooms in the barren mountains near the place of cultivation.

Some people like to enjoy themselves, like lively and prosperous places, so they will build manors in nearby mortal towns and become powerful.

Luo Guangshun was already over half a hundred years old, and he felt that there was no possibility of much progress in the journey of cultivating immortals in this life, so he chose the latter now, and built a large manor on a mortal town nearer to Hongyafang City. Eight concubines.

After he came back from Fangshi, he went back to his manor first, and hid most of the spirit coins he got from Fangshi this time in a hidden compartment on the bedroom wall, leaving only two for himself to carry with him. .

Only he knows this secret space, not even his favorite concubine.

At this time, he looked at the nearly one hundred spiritual coins in the porcelain jar in the dark cabinet, which was already half full, and there was both satisfaction and sadness in his eyes.

"Hey! I don't know if these spirit coins I have saved up so hard will be really useful before I die!"

"If I can't give birth to a descendant with spiritual root qualifications to inherit my property, what's the point of my hard work now?"

Thinking of these spiritual coins, he saved them one by one by saving money, and it took five or six years to save so much, Luo Guangshun felt proud and depressed at the same time.

He could see the end of his life at a glance.

If there is any hope, it is to be able to give birth to a descendant with spiritual root aptitude, and then cultivate it well from an early age.

Let him inherit his legacy, and stop following his old path in the future.

However, few of his concubines have been able to conceive and give birth to children, let alone give birth to offspring with spiritual root qualifications.

"After completing the order of Fellow Daoist Zhou, let's take a few more concubines. As long as I keep giving birth, I don't believe that there will be no one with spiritual roots!"

Luo Guangshun gritted his teeth, closed the cabinet again, and summoned the two concubines to pamper him.

After resting at home for two days, Luo Guangshun went out again.

This time, the place he was going to was not close, so when Luo Guangshun went out, he rode on the top-quality horse raised at home. After riding the horse for more than 200 miles along the way, he stopped outside a stretch of mountains.

Then he skillfully tied the horse in a cave in the mountain, prepared food and water in one of the troughs, and then left the cave and walked to the deep mountain.

But Luo Guangshun, who was walking through the mountains and forests, didn't know that there was a "tail" following him more than ten miles away.

In the mountains and forests, Zhou Chunzheng followed a palm-sized blue-black butterfly steadily advancing, and the direction of advancement was exactly the direction Luo Guangshun was in.

It turned out that the order he had placed with Luo Guangshun was for fishing.

Before Luo Guangshun left the shop, he sprinkled the refined female "Black-spotted Blue Butterfly" butterfly powder on the spirit coins.

After Luo Guangshun touched the spirit coins with his hands, the butterfly powder would be stained on his hands and the corners of his clothes.

So it was easy for Zhou Chun to track all the way to Luo Guangshun's manor with the male "Black-spotted Blue Butterfly" specially begged from the family in front of him.

And that night when Luo Guangshun favored the two concubines, Zhou Chun had already sneaked into his manor, and sprinkled butterfly powder on the back and saddle of the horse he was riding.

Therefore, even if they were more than ten miles away, he could easily know where Luo Guangshun had gone.

After following Luo Guangshun for dozens of miles in the mountains, Zhou Chun saw him stop beside a pool in the mountains.

On the edge of the green pool in the mountains, Luo Guangshun twisted off the head of a pheasant caught on the road, and threw it on the gravel-covered shoal beside Tan, and then took out a harpoon from the storage bag The magic weapon is in hand and ready to go.

Not long after, a string of blisters "bubbled" out of the originally calm water surface, and a silver-black strange fish quickly pushed the water waves up the shallows, trying to bite the pheasant.

However, at this moment, Luo Guangshun on the shore took out the magic weapon of the harpoon from his hand, and with one hit, he caught the body of the strange fish and nailed it to death on the shoal.

Then, without waiting for the injured and painful monster fish to break free from the harpoon, Luo Guangshun took out another black meteor hammer and smashed it heavily on the monster fish's head, smashing its head open on the spot.

After killing the first strange fish easily, Luo Guangshun skillfully used a noose to trap the dead fish and dragged it ashore, put it in a wooden box, and continued to squat down to guard it.

After squatting like this for almost half a day, only four pheasants were consumed before and after, and Luo Guangshun easily killed five strange fish, completing Zhou Chun's commission.

He stopped lingering after that, and soon began returning with his spoils.

And when it was confirmed that Luo Guangshun had gone away, Zhou Chun, who had been hiding himself with the "Lin Yin Cicada's Breathing Art", walked out of the shadows, and then looked at the water pool in front of him and began to meditate.

He had witnessed the whole process of Luo Guangshun's fishing before.

How to say the whole process, just two words, simple.

too easy!

It's so simple that he feels sorry for the spiritual coins he spent.

No wonder Luo Guangshun was so disappointed when he heard that he only bought three or four strange fish.

"However, why do so many fish monsters appear one after another in this small mountain pool? What do these fish monsters usually eat to grow so big?"

Zhou Chun looked at the pool in front of him, his eyes flickering.
