Deer seeks fairyland

Chapter 199 Preparations for this trip

"Why is it that I'm the only woman in our Hu family to participate? The patriarch shouldn't be patriarchal."

It wasn't until the two of them walked away from the patriarch's study that Liu Xiaolu suddenly lowered his voice and asked.

"That's not true." Hu Ruxing glanced back subconsciously, and continued, "But the youngest of the aunts of the first generation has also married out, and the only eighth aunt who stayed in Yuchuan is also over [-] years old. .

As for Ruzi's generation, there are only a few women with Sanlinggen, among them, the sixth sister has already gone to the Hedao Sect, and Xiao Shiyi is only ten years old this year, so there is indeed no one else who can participate in the competition except you.

Not to mention the women in the clan, among the five people participating in the competition this time, the third brother and the second brother both have the qualifications of the four spirit roots, but they are older, so they were selected among them. "

Liu Xiaolu nodded thoughtfully when he heard the words. Indeed, Hu Ruyuan looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, and his cultivation level was actually the same as that of Hu Rujue, who was only 12 years old. As for Hu Rusong, he only had the strength of the sixth level of refining Qi.

Thinking about coming to the group arena a few days later, she might not be able to fish as easily as she imagined.

"Rujue's aptitude is pretty good. He's only 12 years old, right? He has already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining."

As she said that, Liu Xiaolu glanced at the young man in white beside her. If she remembered correctly, both she and Hu Ruxing broke through to the seventh level of Qi Refining when they were 12 years old, right?

Although it was approaching the end of the year, but Hu Rujue was only a three-spirit root aptitude, and he was able to bring his cultivation progress so close to the two of them, which was amazing.

"I'm not too sure about that." Hu Ruxing shook his head and said, "But that kid has broken through a little fast recently. I heard that he only broke through the sixth level of Qi Refining in June this year. For some reason, it took only five months. , he actually broke through again.”

"Maybe, is there some adventure?" Liu Xiaolu tilted his head and thought for a while, but couldn't think of any reasonable explanation for a moment.

Hu Ruxing pursed his lips when he heard the words, and said disdainfully, "That kid has never been out of Dalian Zongyuan City a few times, so where can he encounter adventures?"

Breaking through from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining in five months, this breakthrough speed may not be possible even with dual spiritual root qualifications.

But what does this have to do with her? The head of the Hu family doesn't even worry about it, so why should she meddle in her own business.

When Liu Xiaolu returned to his yard, it was already dark.

It took another half an hour to prepare dinner for the two little ones at home, and then Liu Xiaolu was able to return to his room to practice.

After finishing the fourteen great cycles in one breath, when Liu Xiaolu finished his work and opened his eyes, the night outside the window was already dark, and it would be dawn in about an hour.

Xiaoqing and Jixiang were obedient and did not bother her, a cat and a snake nestled on a newly added soft couch in the corner, sleeping together on their backs.

Seeing this scene, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but smile, rolled over and got out of bed lightly, and took out a wooden box from the bedside cabinet.

He opened the lid and saw that there were more than a dozen spirit stones scattered inside, some medicine pills, a dozen spirit charms, and a light yellow kit.

A few days ago, Grandpa Lou went to Liuyuan City, intending to buy a property in the city ahead of time, so that they could settle down in the future.

Unexpectedly, the prices in Liuyuan City are several times higher than those in Zongyuan City, and a house with two entrances costs nearly a thousand spirit stones.

You know, in Zongyuan City, it would only take more than a hundred spirit stones to buy a storefront as wide as Wanxiang Pavilion with an independent small courtyard behind it.

Although Lou Wanxiang is quite wealthy as a craftsman, but for more than a year, the Wanxiang Pavilion has not made much money, and it is quite difficult for him to collect nearly a thousand spirit stones in a short time.

However, the rules in Liuyuan City are strict, and only with the property deed and land deed in the city can one go to the city lord's mansion to receive the residence jade card of Liuyuan City,

If a monk does not have this jade tablet, he can only exchange spirit stones at the city gate for a stone tablet for temporary entry into the city. Every day he stays in the city will cost five spirit stones.

In Liuyuan City, there is a powerful formation set up by the city lord of Jindanqi. If there is no jade token, or the time limit of the stone token has expired, it will be displayed on the astrolabe, and the guards in the city will go out and arrest it, and take it to the dungeon of the city lord's mansion among.

After Hu Yizhi learned of this, he and Liu Xiaolu gathered together two hundred spirit stones and sent them to Lou Wanxiang.

Lou Wanxiang also disposed of some middle-grade artifacts accumulated in the warehouse at a low price, and together with the savings accumulated over the years, he successfully purchased a two-entry house in Liuyuan City.

But now that he has a place to live, the storefront of the Artifact Refining Pavilion has not been settled in the future, and it will be a considerable expense.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help but feel a little worried. It seems that even if everything goes well in the future, everyone's life in Liuyuan City will have many twists and turns in the future.

Now that she has broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, she will definitely have no problem in the group arena in a few days' time, and even in the trip to the secret realm in three months' time, she is quite sure that she will break into the top [-].

Although there are many young monks who will participate at that time, there should be only a few who can break through to the tenth level of Qi Refining, even if they can reach the ninth level of Qi Refining, there will not be too many.

But there was one thing that made her feel worried all the time. It was nothing more than people from Danfenggu and Hedao Sect. Ghost Eater Sect would also send people to attend.

The Ghost Devouring Sect had a long-standing reputation in the cultivation world of the Liu Kingdom. If they joined, then the trip to the Clear Water Cave and Heaven would probably not be as simple as a simple treasure hunt.

She had specifically asked a few days ago that this trip to the secret realm was limited by the number of people, and she could not bring her spiritual pet along with her.

If the upper limit of the number of people entering is exceeded, the secret realm will be closed in advance without mercy, and this number is not too many, exactly 520 people.

After many tests by the three major sects, it was finally discovered that although spirit beasts were also counted in the number of people, Lingzhi was not subject to this restriction.

Even so, there are still very few monks who are willing to carry spiritual plants during the trip to the secret realm. After all, there are really no exotic flowers and plants that can help in the treasure hunt, so why bother to do so many times.

However, this may not be a good thing for monks who practice wood attribute techniques.

Liu Xiaolu opened the yellow kit in the box, and there were nearly a hundred black seeds the size of soybeans bulging inside, which Hu Yi bought for him in Zongyuan City some time ago.

These black seeds are a plant called Ironthorn vine, which is not considered a spiritual plant, but it is also a rather special existence.

After this thing grows up, it is shaped like an iron chain, and has barbs. It is impossible for ordinary low-grade magic tools to do anything to it. It is an excellent way to trap the enemy when combined with the Hu family's entanglement technique.

As for the yellow talisman, Hu Yizhi also prepared it for him. Although most of them are low-priced talismans, they have complete attributes for emergencies.

These items didn't look very eye-catching, but they also used up Hu Yizhi's little savings.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaolu couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, stretched out his hand and gently stroked the box, and then put it away.

Everything has been arranged properly, and she can start a new life with the whole family after this trip to the secret realm is over.
