Longevity begins with a dog

Chapter 170 New clues to natural disasters!Xu Chong coincides with Lou Youzhi!

Not far from the clan hall is the clan banquet hall of the Fang family.

At this time, in the banquet hall, there were already many people from the Fang family, most of them were young people, and both men and women had excellent appearance.

But the attention of these people was all on a 16-year-old boy.

It was Li Xiangxue who came out of Chunqiu Hall.

Between toasting and chatting, the discussion was very 'enthusiastic'.

"Brother Li probably doesn't know the history of our Fang family?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that the inheritance of our Fang family has existed longer than Daqing."

"I didn't lie to you. The clan elders told us that the founding ancestor of Daqing was able to establish Daqing with the help of our Fang family."

"Those capricious villains, don't say anything."

"In short, our Fang family's background is so profound that you can't imagine."

"I heard that Ji Qingzhi is your master?"

"Hehe, you sure don't know that Ji Qingzhi also obeys the orders of my Fang family."

"Oh no, it should be said that the entire Taiping Dao must be ordered by my Fang family."

"Why hasn't Daqing been able to destroy Taipingdao for so many years? Is it because they can't destroy Taipingdao?"

"of course not."

"It's Daqing who knows that with our Fang family around, the Taiping Dao cannot be destroyed."

"..."

This is the argument of the young men of the Fang family.

Belittling the head of Taiping Dao, ignoring the two families of Zheng and Lin, blowing the Fang family to death.

Of course, in their thinking, this is not bragging, but seeking truth from facts.

As for the young women, a different kind of attitude is exhibited entirely.

Or reserved, or fiery, or pure, or charming...

All of them are beautiful and beautiful, just looking at them is pleasing to the eye.

It's status and power, and it's wealth and beauty.

If a normal young man came here, I'm afraid he would fall soon.

It's a pity that Li Xiangxue is not normal.

"Although he is 16 years old, ten of these 16 years have been spent in Chunqiu Hall..."

Fang Manxia frowned slightly, "How can he have such a heart?"

In order to let the children of the clan play their best, and to let Li Xiangxue relax his vigilance, the elders of the clan were far away from each other.

However, Li Xiangxue's cheerful and sophisticated manner, making everyone feel bad.

Now, the fact that the Spring and Autumn Tomb is about to collapse is no longer a secret among the clan elders.

In the face of this big external crisis, the previous internal struggles instantly became insignificant.

Even the sixth and seventh rooms, which were the most difficult to deal with, have calmed down a lot.

"Presumably before he came in, Ji Qingzhi had told him and even trained him in this regard."

Fang Lezhong sighed, "If you want to lure him with a profit, I'm afraid there is no hope."

"It's about the survival of the family, if you can't be lured by foreign objects, then threaten with life and death."

The old Fang Leshan of the Erfang clan said coldly, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"Aunt, is there any news about Wu Xiangyi outside?"

Fang Letian, an old man from the Qifang clan, asked.

As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at Fang Manxia with hope in their eyes.

"This matter is a bit strange."

Fang Manxia's frown deepened, "According to our Fang family's previous information, there are at least ten non-phase clothes that have survived until now, but since Emperor Yongtai ascended the throne, these non-phase clothes have all disappeared one after another."

"Auntie means that the imperial court is collecting Wuxiang clothes?"

Fang Leshan was a little puzzled, "It's possible to say one or two, but all of them...what does the court want?"

The unique function of Wuxiang Clothes makes it extremely difficult for anyone who wants to take the initiative to find it.

What is the population of Daqing?
In tens of millions.

With such a huge base, one can imagine how difficult it is to find a dozen or so people pretending to be others.

Even if the imperial court does this, it will consume a huge amount of manpower and material resources.

In addition, Wuxiangyi only has the function of changing the shape. For the court with huge resources, the value can be said to be pitifully low.

"Infiltrate Pacific Road?"

Fang Letian raised his eyebrows, and immediately denied this argument himself, "The imperial court knows that the foundation of Taiping Dao lies in the three ancient clans, and it is meaningless to infiltrate Taiping Dao if they cannot find the caves of the three ancient clans."

"The intention is not yet known."

Fang Manxia shook her head, "The closest news is that Wei Wuxie and the Wuxiang clothes owned by the water ghost."

"Wei Wuxie, I know."

Fang Lezhong said in a deep voice, "He disappeared after capturing the fragments of the Longevity Heaven in Canglong County. He has not been seen until now. He should have gone into hiding to restore the rules of longevity."

"Tch, it's true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."

Fang Leshan smiled disdainfully, "That's the complete longevity rule, no better than the Huan Zhentian with scattered rules, if you want to restore it, I'm afraid you have to drain a blessed land to do it... I don't even think about it, how did such a good thing come to me?" his."

"Speaking of this, Ji Qingzhi also wanted to get involved at the beginning, right?"

The elder of the Jiufang clan said meaningfully, "He is not a young man like Wei Wuxie, what does he want to do?"

"Don't worry about this."

Fang Manxia waved her hand, "After such a long time, even our Fang family was almost wiped out because of Changshengtian. Facts have proved that this kind of scourge should be destroyed."

"Too."

Fang Leshan nodded, and said with a smile: "Once someone becomes the master of Changshengtian, Changshengtian will declare to heaven and earth, and congratulate heaven and earth... It's also the evil sect."

"Who knows about that water ghost?"

Fang Lezhong brought the topic back on track.

"I know, I was in charge of side affairs at the time."

The elder of the Sifang clan said, "But there is no need to count on this. The water ghost was killed by Lu Zhong, and the Wuxiang garment has already fallen into the hands of the imperial court."

"This is going to be difficult..."

Everyone's faces were not very good-looking.

After a long time, the elder of the Bafang clan suddenly said: "There is something, I don't know if it will be useful."

Fang Manxia's expression moved slightly, "Just say it."

"About two years ago."

The elder of the Bafang family recalled, and said slowly: "When I was on duty, the side branch reported to me that the spies stationed in Dingtian Mansion accidentally discovered a strange thing, which is of value for use."

"Probably, the son of Cheng Guogong secretly contacted An Zi of Taipingdao, intending to pass through Taipingdao and kill Cheng Guogong."

"In order to win the trust of the people of the Taiping Dao, this Duke Cheng threatened to say that Wei Wuxie, the son of the Wuxie Dao, was actually disguised by his nephew Duan Wuxie."

Wei Wuxie, is Duan Wuxie in disguise?
Everyone looked at each other, each with a flash of surprise.

"Our spies felt that there were some articles in this matter, so they reported it to the side branch. When the side branch heard that it was Wei Wuxie, and it was related to the Longevity Heaven Fragment, they contacted Chunqiu Tomb."

The elder of the Bafang tribe shook his head helplessly, "I think even if this matter is true, it is unlikely that Wei Wuxie will be found out, and the value of the fragments of Changshengtian is relatively low, so it was not mentioned at the elders' meeting."

"Is that so..."

Fang Manxia was thoughtful, "Since this is the case, we can ask Pangzhi to send someone to get in touch with this son of Cheng Guogong. If it is valuable, it is not impossible to help him kill Cheng Guogong."

"Let me take care of this."

Fang Leshan said, "I just happen to be controlling the bloodline communication right now."

"pay close attention."

Fang Manxia nodded, and then looked at Fang Lezhong: "This time, our Fang family is in critical condition. For Fang Xianzong, I hope you can persuade him and let him understand the importance."

"..."

Fang Lezhong showed hesitation, and nodded after a while: "I will do my best."

In fact, this is not the first time Fang Manxia told him this.

What do you advise Fang Xianzong?
Of course, it is to persuade Fang Xianzong to sacrifice himself for others, and let the speed of the spread of magical powers in Fang's family be mentioned again.

Fang Le felt helpless in the center, just as he was thinking, the approach of a figure caught his attention.

It was 'Fang Xianzong' who had just come out of Cangshu Pavilion.

"All the clan elders."

Xu Chong clasped his fists to salute, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

"You can still stay calm and have a good heart."

Fang Manxia looked deeply at Xu Chong, "However, I didn't expect you to come out early... What do you gain?"

"I have a little idea."

Xu Chong spoke nonsense.

"Ok?"

Fang Manxia was slightly taken aback.

She had read the Tianxuan Chronicle long ago, and didn't think there was any information that could inspire the practice of supernatural powers.

“You have to try it to know if it works.”

Xu Chong answered.

Fang Lezhong and Fang Manxia looked at each other, got up and left the seat: "Xianzong, come with me."

Xu Chong didn't know why, so he followed him to a quieter place.

"There is something I must let you know."

Fang Lezhong sighed, "Chunqiu Tomb will collapse soon."

"what?!"

Xu Chong cooperatively expressed his horror.

Fang Lezhong took a look at the banquet and made sure that none of the juniors were paying attention to this side, so he continued: "I only found out about it recently."

"A hundred years ago, there were three sky-level tombs like the Chunqiu Hall with a hundred times the age."

"That's the three on the top of the mountain."

"In addition, there are ten terraced tombs fifty times the age."

"There are also Xuanjie and Huangjie... Compared with what I think now, they are far beyond."

"It is said that in the earliest time, all the tombs in the entire Spring and Autumn Tomb were a hundred times old."

"Over thousands of years, the Spring and Autumn Tomb has gradually weakened until now."

"Two years later, the entire Spring and Autumn Tomb will collapse..."

After finishing speaking, Fang Lezhong did not forget to warn: "Only the clan elders know about this matter. Don't spread the word. It will cause panic among the clansmen."

Xu Chong pretended to be silent for a moment, and then asked along the way: "Is there any way to delay the decline of the cave?"

"No."

Fang Lezhong shook his head.

Xu Chong felt disappointed in his heart.

But Fang Lezhong suddenly changed the subject: "It's not completely absent. The patriarch told us that if we want to delay the decline of Dongtian, we must consume the same bloodline as the master of Dongtian."

what? !

Xu Chong couldn't control it for a while, showing a shocked expression.

"you do not need to worry."

Fang Lezhong waved his hands, as if he was not surprised by the reaction of 'Fang Xianzong', "This method is not suitable for our Fang family, the patriarch has already explained it to us."

"Consuming the blood of the tribe is just an introduction. In addition to the introduction, more than ten times the ordinary population needs to be slaughtered."

"Let's not talk about whether we can hide the truth from Daqing. With the number of members of our Fang family, even if all the branches of the direct line are extinct at once as an introduction, it can only delay this decline for about ten years. Still It doesn't make much sense not to be able to stop the decline."

"What's more, all the clansmen are dead, so why do we need the cave?"

Fang Lezhong sighed, with a melancholy expression: "It's better to just give up the cave and scatter the clansmen to various places."

"Is that so..."

Xu Chong forced himself to calm down on the surface.

"He has a really good heart."

Fang Lezhong nodded appreciatively, and then continued: "The reason why I tell you this is because the head room wants you to sacrifice more."

"Sacrifice a little more... what do you mean?"

Xu Chong couldn't react.

"It means how many more people can be taught after cultivating supernatural powers."

Fang Lezhong's tone was a bit helpless, "I can't help you stop the Fang family's critical moment."

"Changfang knew that reading the Tianxuan Chronicle would make you lose your sense of belonging to the family, so why did he agree to let you enter the Library Pavilion?"

"It's an attitude, a tough attitude."

"so……"

Fang Lezhong hesitated to speak, looking a little guilty.

"I understand."

Xu Chong thought for a while, then suddenly laughed, "Uncle, don't worry too much, I just agree."

Fang Lezhong was slightly surprised, and said curiously: "I thought you would hesitate."

"If it was before entering Zangshu Pavilion, I would definitely hesitate."

Xu Chong looked indifferent, "But I have already seen the Tianxuan Chronicle..."

In the Tianxuan Chronicle, after the three major families broke away from Daqing, they regrouped together with Taipingdao as the hub.

In order to return to land, the three families communicated with each other for a long time, studied together, communicated together, and made progress together.

However, the three major families at that time did not have absolute control over their clansmen and followers.

Until a cave on the verge of decline was discovered from the deep sea.

No one knows the name of the cave and the rules.

I only know that when the cave was discovered, it was filled with a large number of ghosts without substance like the legendary ghosts.

At that time, the new cultivation system had not yet been developed to the extreme, and the highest among the three major families was Tongmai Jiuzhong.

As a result, as soon as he entered, he was infiltrated by these emptiness, causing confusion, and finally died of madness.

Originally, the three major families were planning to give up this evil cave, but not long after, the cave completely collapsed and exploded into countless pieces.

Then, a means of controlling the life and death of others was born by combining Taoist medicine and cave fragments.

In a large piece of the seabed where the cave collapsed, the plants have undergone some changes.

Using it as medicine, one can practice a kind of Taoist medicine named Soul-absorbing Pill.

As the name suggests.

The soul-absorbing pill can absorb a ray of the soul of a person.

The fragment of the cave sky known as the lock soul seal can contain this ray of soul, and use it to control the life and death of the soul body.

Then what, in the dream, unblocking for the third time will control life and death. In fact, the three major families mixed the soul-absorbing pill into the blood pool of heaven and earth.

There is no need for a third time, as long as the three major families want to, they can control life and death after unblocking for the first time.

It's nothing more than the fact that Dao medicine is not easy to refine, and it's just wasted on low-level people.

But the lineages of the three major families are different.

In order to ensure the cohesion of the family, as soon as all the direct lineages are born, they will be extracted a ray of soul by the soul-stirring pill.

Anyway, this ray of spirit is extremely subtle, and has almost no effect on the qualifications and longevity.

Whether it is Fang Lezhong or Fang Manxia, ​​even the patriarch himself, before inheriting the position of patriarch, was in the same situation.

Therefore, facing the request of the long house, 'Fang Xianzong' had no choice at all.

Xu Chong sneered secretly, and said: "Uncle, don't worry, I will practice supernatural powers as soon as possible."

Seeing this, Fang Lezhong stopped talking, nodded and said: "I'm not in a hurry now, since you're here, let's have a banquet first, and communicate with your peers."

"Speaking of this... is he the one sent by Ji Qingzhi?"

Xu Chong looked towards the banquet and said, "When did our Fang family's direct lineage become so low as to curry favor with the Taoist master?"

"This is a preparation for the collapse of the cave, you can communicate with him, don't reveal the decline of the cave, and don't reveal the supernatural power."

Fang Lezhong didn't explain too much, turned around and walked towards the banquet.

Xu Chong twitched the corners of his mouth, and just stood there, sorting out and summarizing the information he just got.

First, in the former Spring and Autumn Tomb, all the tombs have the rules of star shifting, and they are all a hundred times old.

Since the weakening of the cave, this rule has also gradually weakened, and even narrowed the scope, turning the tombs at the foot of the mountain into ordinary tombs without rules.

This made Xu Chong naturally think of Emperor Yongtai.

Hiding in the curtain for so many years without showing up, is it possible... the apse of the Tianji Temple behind the curtain is also such a cave whose rules have been reduced due to decline?
Have to say, it's very possible.

Second, the only way to delay the decline of the cave is to consume the same bloodline as the master of the cave.

Xu Chong clearly remembered what King Qian said when he first met him.

"Taizu was uninhibited by nature. In today's world, at least half of the population can be regarded as the blood of Taizu."

If the first point is true, then the second point proves the first point again from the side!
Emperor Yongtai controls a cave that is in decline. He uses natural disasters to kill people. What he kills are not refugees, but the descendants of refugees, folk descendants with the blood of the Taizu!
"Suppose, suppose it's all true."

Xu Chong's rationality overshadowed his emotions, and he began to calculate quickly based on this.

"The total number of side branches of the Fang family is about 10."

"Using 10 people as a guide, killing a million people can delay the decline of the Spring and Autumn Tomb for ten years."

"As for the drought in Bingzhou, 800 million people died, and half of them would be 40 blood descendants."

"According to the postponement ratio of the Spring and Autumn Tomb, the 40 blood descendants who died in Bingzhou should be able to delay the decline of Emperor Yongtai's cave for 40 years."

"But in fact, only 18 years have passed from the drought in Bingzhou to the sea boil in Binzhou, which does not correspond."

"Even if Emperor Yongtai delayed the decline of the cave in advance just in case, there is no need to advance it by more than 20 years..."

Xu Chong frowned deeply.

A moment later, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind.

"No!"

"Correspond!"

"If Emperor Yongtai's cave is a high-grade cave, it can be completely matched!"

The prison is a low-grade cave, and the seventh floor produces 2 spiritual sources a day.

The Spring and Autumn Tomb is a middle-grade cave, and the Spring and Autumn Hall produces 4 spiritual sources a day.

The mid-grade cave is twice as large as the low-grade cave.

If there is no accident, the top-grade cave is twice as big as the middle-grade cave!
It is very possible that the delay cost of the top-grade cave is also twice that of the middle-grade cave.

In other words, those 40 blood descendants can only allow Emperor Yongtai to delay the decline of the cave for 20 years!
In addition, the actual numbers will definitely not be so accurate, and Emperor Yongtai will definitely calculate some advances...

The 18-year interval between natural disasters is just right!

"It still needs to be verified."

"The interval between the sea boiling in Binzhou and the locust plague in Yongzhou was more than 11 years and less than 12 years, but I don't know the population changes in Binzhou before and after the sea boiling. I need to check in the capital."

"Once it is verified again, it means..."

"As long as I know the death toll in Yongzhou, I can roughly judge when the next natural disaster will come!"

Before that, whether it was Xu Chong or Dou Tianyuan, they could only judge the location of the next natural disaster based on the vacancy of officials.

And when the natural disaster will come, it is impossible to predict.

If you can predict the time and place at the same time...

It can prevent natural disasters from killing people.

What will happen?
At this moment, Xu Chong and Lou Youzhi coincided with each other and thought of the same place.

But because of the difference in information, Xu Chong also thought of another contradictory point.

The interval between natural disasters is getting shorter and shorter.

If natural disasters were completely under the control of Emperor Daqing and were only used to delay the decline of the cave, then this interval should tend to a fixed value.

"Anyway, I finally got something extra in this Fang family... It's time to deal with Li Xiangxue's affairs."

Xu Chong's mood became much clearer, he turned and walked towards the banquet.

Seeing 'Fang Xianzong' approaching, all the descendants of the Fang family couldn't help restraining themselves, only the people from the sixth room greeted them warmly.

Now, 'Fang Xianzong' is an important figure in the entire Xianzi generation.

If there was an order from the clan elders that they could not offend Li Xiangxue, then from the bottom of their hearts, they did not want to offend Fang Xianzong.

Supernatural powers are one thing, and one stroke of Dao Huang Ting made 'Fang Xianzong' instantly become the leader of Xianzi's generation.

Don't forget, it's not a crime for peers to kill each other.

Xu Chong walked through the seats blankly.

There's no way, even if it's the people from Liufang, he didn't recognize everything at all, so it's better not to respond at all.

When he got to Li Xiangxue's side, someone had already stepped aside with interest.

Xu Chong took his seat unceremoniously, and looked at Li Xiangxue: "I am Fang Xianzong of the sixth house, what is the name of this little brother?"

"..."

There was a trace of strangeness on Li Xiangxue's young face.

He can be sure that this is the first time for him to be simple about the person in front of him who calls himself Fang Xianzong.

But for some reason, his mind throbbed a little when the other party spoke.

I can't even tell you what it feels like, it's just weird...

Li Xiangxue suppressed his thoughts and politely clasped his fists: "Li Xiangxue has met Brother Fang."

They will all be called Brother Fang.

Xu Chong sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "When I look at Brother Li's face, I feel a little kind for no reason. Why don't I take you to visit Chunqiu Mountain after the banquet?"

absurd……

The Fang family juniors at the table all showed stunned expressions.

Chunqiu Mountain?
What kind of saying is this?

Isn't it just a cemetery...

In fact, almost all the Fang family members dislike this cemetery.

If it weren't for the fact that the appearance of the tomb couldn't be modified, and the place at the foot of the mountain was small, I'm afraid the place would have changed a long time ago.

Also visited Chunqiu Mountain...

Only a fool would accept such a weird invitation.

All the seniors remained calm, ready to watch the 'Fang Xianzong' joke.

however.

"Alright."

Li Xiangxue nodded, "I have always been curious about the noble land, but I was afraid of breaking the rules here, so I didn't dare to walk around without authorization."

"Since Brother Fang has such a taste, I have no choice but to follow."
