Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 504 The magical effects of spiritual spring water
On the top of the mountain in the distance.

Taoist Xuanzhen shook his whisk and said with a smile, "This Marquis Jing'an is so arrogant that he even wants to destroy Lingxiu Villa!"

Zhang Ye, who was standing next to him, stroked his beard and said calmly, "Why not?"

"What do you mean?"

Taoist Xuanzhen looked at his old friend in astonishment.

Zhangye glanced at him and said softly, "You didn't think I was the only one here!"

"Isn't it?" asked Taoist Xuanzhen.

Zhangye did not answer, but his silence had already made Taoist Xuanzhen understand how determined the court was this time.

Taoist Xuanzhen thought for a moment and said, "That's right. Even you have been invited out. I think there should be quite a few people coming to the Three Valleys this time! Is Granny Meng here too?"

"I don't know!" Zhangye said.

"Tsk tsk, if even she comes, it will be really lively!" Taoist Xuanzhen leaned against the tree and smiled casually.

Zhangye gathered his sleeves and said, "The excitement is yet to come!"

"How to say?"

"Do you think the court wants this Xingyuan fruit tree?"

"Is not it?"

"Yes and no!"

"Hey, don't keep me in suspense. You know I have a quick temper!" Taoist Xuanzhen said with some dissatisfaction.

Zhangye looked at Yang Zhengshan in the valley, "The royal family is offering sacrifices to him, and he is of the same rank!"

Taoist Xuanzhen was still confused, "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty doesn't want the Xingyuan fruit tree, but the royal offering, which is of the same rank!" Zhangye said lightly.

Taoist Xuanzhen was stunned for a moment, then he showed a look of sudden realization.

"No wonder no wonder!"

In the eyes of innate warriors, the Xingyuan Fruit Tree is naturally much more important than the honorary title of royal offering.

But in the eyes of Emperor Yanping, royal offerings and a rank of the same rank are much more important than the Xingyuan fruit tree.

This means that all innate warriors must obey the emperor's orders and all innate warriors must submit to him.

To Emperor Yanping, Xingyuan Fruit was actually similar to gold and silver, and was used as salary for his ministers.

Making all the innate warriors in the world bow down to him was a great temptation for Emperor Yanping.

The emperor's desire for power was stirring.

If someone jumps out to cause chaos at this time, what do you think Emperor Yanping will do?
Not to mention Lingxiu Villa, even if all eight major sects stood up to oppose, Emperor Yanping would consider whether he could destroy them all.

……

Yang Zhengshan has always been a man with plans. When he said he wanted to wipe out the entire Lingxiu Villa, he really had such a plan in his mind and it was not just a spur-of-the-moment idea.

Of course, he did not have the ability to predict the future. What he needed was a chicken to be killed to scare the monkeys.

This chicken can be Lingxiu Villa, Xilou Sword Sect, or Wuzhen Taoist Palace.

To be precise, it is the need of the court and the Shangwu Temple, and this dispute over the Xingyuan Fruit is a process of determining this chicken.

Although the battle for the Xingyuan Fruit has not really begun yet, Yang Zhengshan doesn't mind arranging a "chicken" identity for Lingxiu Villa first.

Pulling back the spear and letting Jing Changyuan's body collapse on the ground, Yang Zhengshan turned and walked towards the camp.

"Pass on my military order to blockade Cuixia Valley. If anyone dares to approach Cuixia Valley, they will be killed without mercy!"

The sonorous and powerful sound spread throughout the valley, and a strong murderous intent was wrapped in the echoing sound.

"Let's go!"

Pei Du stepped forward and tugged at the corner of Duan Si Niang's clothes. Duan Si Niang bowed to Yang Zhengshan and quickly retreated.

Xue Ou immediately arranged for the soldiers of the Yaowu Camp to begin searching the surrounding mountains and forests and drive away all the warriors who came to join in the fun.

As the sun sets and night falls, the originally noisy Cuixia Valley suddenly becomes quiet.

But the strong smell of blood made the silence seem not so peaceful.

In the tent.

Yang Zhengshan sat in the main seat, Xue Ou, Yan Bo, Luo Jinsong and Wu Zheng stood under the tent.

Luo Jinsong recounted in detail what happened during the day.

After listening to this, Yang Zhengshan said thoughtfully: "So those who attacked the camp during the day were all from Xingyue Sect!"

"That's right, most of them are from the Xingyue Sect, and a small number are from a few martial arts sects who want to take advantage of the situation!" Luo Jinsong said.

"Star Moon Gate!"

A sneer appeared on Yang Zhengshan's lips, "These damn bugs are really haunting us!"

Over the years, he has dealt with many people from the Xingyue Sect, from the initial Luo Jinsong, to Sun Chunsheng and Gu Yunjian, and now to the Tianquan Xingtang.

The Xingyue Sect is obviously a sect outside of Dayong, but they always like to stir up trouble within Dayong.

"Have you found any other suspicious people?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

He didn't have time to pay attention to the Xingyue Sect for the time being. The Xingyue Sect was far away overseas, and it was not an easy task to destroy them.

As for attacking the Qixingtang, it actually doesn't make much sense.

If you destroy a Star Hall, within two or three years, the Xingyue Sect will be able to support a new one.

Therefore, if you want to hurt or kill Xingyuemen, you must go to their headquarters.

Now Yang Zhengshan obviously has no time to target the Xingyue Sect. He is more concerned about the Shenyang Sect hidden in the dark.

"No!" Luo Jinsong shook his head.

Yan Bo also shook his head slightly and said, "The people around us were too complicated before, and we couldn't tell which forces they came from!"

Yang Zhengshan was not disappointed by this, as it was an expected result.

If the Shen Yang Cult was so easy to reveal its tracks, the Secret Guards wouldn't have been searching for months without finding any trace.

"In that case, let's go and rest first. We can talk about it tomorrow!"

The current situation is rather complicated, with too many forces involved. It is simply impossible to sort out all the issues.

The most urgent task is to guard the Xingyuan Fruit Tree, and then wait for those innate warriors to show up one by one, and then make his previous proposal public.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, the soldiers began to clean up everything in Cuixia Valley.

All the obstructing grass and trees were cleared away, a road was opened to connect to the official road, and then all the corpses on the ground were moved away.

Yang Zhengshan walked out of the tent and looked up at the surrounding mountains. After finding no one hiding around, he relaxed a little.

"My Lord!" Luo Jinsong came over and bowed.

"Well, come on, take me to see the Xingyuan Fruit tree!" Yang Zhengshan said.

"Here!"

Then the two of them walked towards the tent in the center of the camp.

In order to prevent the Xingyuan fruit tree from being damaged, Yan Bo specially had someone build a large tent for the Xingyuan fruit tree.

Yang Zhengshan pulled aside the curtain and entered the tent, and a tree immediately appeared in front of him.

This tree is not tall, with the top less than ten feet high, and its branches and leaves are quite lush. If you ignore the fruit, this tree is actually no different from a jujube tree.

Its fruit is similar to a date, thumb-sized, and green-red in color.

The reason why we can be sure that it is a Xingyuan Fruit Tree is because its fruit is shining with a halo, and the green halo wraps around the thumb-sized fruit.

Compared with the three yellow plums in the Sanshan Valley, this Xingyuan fruit tree is very inconspicuous.

But this is normal. The Sanhuang Plum in the Sanshan Valley has been growing for more than 300 years, and its crown is more than ten feet high. The Xingyuan Fruit tree in front of us has just grown, and this year should be the first time it bears fruit.

Yang Zhengshan walked around the Xingyuan Fruit Tree carefully and then said to Luo Jinsong and others, "You go out first!" "Yes!" Luo Jinsong immediately walked out of the tent with several guards.

Yang Zhengshan squatted on the ground and dug some soil to study it.

He was very curious as to why this spiritual plant grew here.

He has read many books about spiritual plants in the past few days, but unfortunately, most of the books only record that the place where spiritual plants grow is a blessed land.

But he did not find the answers to these questions, why is the blessed land called a blessed land, and why spiritual plants can only grow in blessed land.

He also went to Sanshan Valley to observe the Sanhuang plum trees, but still found nothing.

He dug around on the ground for a long time but didn't find anything special.

Then he stood up, stroked his beard and looked carefully at the fruit trees in front of him.

Speaking of blessed land, Lingquan Space is definitely one of them, because the Sanhuang plums he planted in Lingquan Space are growing vigorously.

"Spiritual spring water!"

Yang Zhengshan thought about it, then stretched out his hands and placed them on the roots of the fruit tree. A stream of clear water flowed out from his fingertips and slowly penetrated into the soil.

While controlling the flow of the spiritual spring, he observed the changes in the Xingyuan Fruit Tree.

However, there was no change in the Xingyuan Fruit Tree!
About a quarter of an hour later, Yang Zhengshan withdrew his fingers.

“Is it because there is no effect or because there is not enough time?”

"No, the spiritual spring water must be effective. The three yellow plums in the space can thrive because of the spiritual spring water!"

"Wait a minute!"

Thinking of this, Yang Zhengshan simply sat next to the Xingyuan Fruit Tree and waited.

An hour passed, and the Xingyuan Fruit Tree still did not change.

Two hours passed, and there was still no change.

A day passed and Yang Zhengshan shook his head in disappointment.

"How queer!"

He waited here for a day and a night, but the Xingyuan Fruit Tree didn't change at all.

"Hey!"

Yang Zhengshan stood up and prepared to go out for some fresh air.

However, just as he lifted the door curtain, he suddenly stopped.

"No, it's not that there is no change, it's that I didn't notice it!"

He walked quickly to the Xingyuan Fruit Tree and looked at the green-red fruit at the bottom.

After looking at it carefully for a long time, he couldn't help but laugh.

"I told you, how could the spiritual spring water be useless!"

The halo of this Star Yuan Fruit is brighter than before, but it is only a subtle change. Yang Zhengshan did not notice it before. But when he opened the door curtain and the sunlight shone into the tent, he noticed that the halo today was much brighter than yesterday.

In addition to the halo, the green and red skin of the Star Yuan Fruit is also changing.

The area of ​​the red skin becomes larger, which means that the Star Fruit is not far from ripening.

Although these two points are only subtle changes, they also prove that spiritual spring water can nourish the growth of spiritual plants.

Here comes the problem!
If Yang Zhengshan was given an area, could he use the spiritual spring water to transform it into a blessed land?
It seems possible!

But it doesn't seem necessary.

Yang Zhengshan owns the Lingquan space, so there is no need for him to go to the trouble of transforming the blessed land.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan just wanted to see whether the spiritual spring water had any effect on spiritual plants. Although there was a Sanhuang plum tree in the spiritual spring space, there was only one Sanhuang plum tree and no reference object, so Yang Zhengshan didn't know how it was growing.

Now, just by watering the Star Yuan Fruit tree with a small amount of spiritual spring water, changes have occurred in the Star Yuan Fruit tree, speeding up the maturation of the Star Yuan Fruit.

From this we can see that spiritual spring water also has a nourishing effect on spiritual plants.

Perhaps the spiritual spring water can be used as fertilizer for spiritual plants.

After reaching this conclusion, Yang Zhengshan walked out of the tent contentedly.

Three days later, Lu Shizhi led the soldiers from the Training Camp and the Yaowu Camp to Cuixia Valley.

Then Yang Zhengshan began to arrange soldiers to build roads and set up guard posts.

For a moment, tens of thousands of soldiers in Cuixia Valley were working hard.

They cut down ancient trees and built wooden houses.

By August, the camp around the Xingyuan Fruit Tree had turned into a proper village.

But this is obviously not enough.

In the future, Cuixia Valley will definitely be like the three valleys, not only will it be garrisoned by a large army, but also by many innate warriors.

So there are still many buildings that need to be built here.

Of course, these are all things for the future. Yang Zhengshan only needs to build a temporary military camp.

As time goes by, what is coming will eventually come.

August 8th, morning.

A long team stopped on the official road at the gap of Cuixia Valley.

The first person to get off the carriage was a woman with a golden hairpin on her head, wearing a wide-sleeved gown and with a dignified posture.

Then an old woman with a snake-head cane walked down from the stable.

"Oh, as I get older, my bones feel lighter and can't withstand the bumps!" The old woman leaned on a crutch with one hand and pounded her lower back with the other.

"Haha, what is grandma talking about? Grandma is not old at all!" The noble woman chuckled.

The old woman's wrinkled face showed a kind smile, "You can't refuse to accept your age!"

As they spoke, the two of them walked towards Cuixia Valley.

There were soldiers on duty at the gap in Cuixia Valley, but before they entered Cuixia Valley, someone had already handed the token to the soldiers.

The two of them walked along the newly repaired, still somewhat bumpy road deep into Cuixia Valley.

Although the old woman looked frail, she walked nearly ten miles on this bumpy road without showing any signs of fatigue.

About a quarter of an hour later, they arrived at the camp.

Yang Zhengshan had already been waiting at the camp gate.

Seeing the two approaching, he hurried forward and greeted them respectfully: "I greet Princess Mingxi and Senior Meng!"

Chen Mingxi looked at Yang Zhengshan and said with a smile, "Marquis Jing'an, there is no need to be polite."

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess!"

After expressing his gratitude, Yang Zhengshan looked at the two people in front of him.

Granny Meng is a very mysterious person in the Three Valleys. It is said that she is proficient in pharmacology and has excellent medical skills. She was once a legend in the medical world.

Princess Mingxi, the younger sister of Emperor Chengping and the aunt of Emperor Yanping, is also a congenital warrior.

I don’t know how many innate warriors Emperor Yanping invited here. If it were just these two, they would be too scared to control the situation.

Although Yang Zhengshan is fully responsible for the affairs of the Xingyuan Fruit Tree this time, he is not qualified to command the innate warriors in the three valleys.

It would be fine to let him command the Yaowu Camp and the Lianwu Camp, but if he lets the innate warriors of the three valleys obey his orders, haha, isn't this a joke?

So until now Yang Zhengshan still doesn’t know which innate warriors will come to Cuixia Valley this time.

After welcoming Granny Meng and Princess Mingxi into the camp, Yang Zhengshan made some simple arrangements and then left.

He was not familiar with these two people and did not have much to talk about.

As for other matters, he didn't need to worry about them. The two of them came with their entourage, and Yang Zhengshan only needed to arrange two wooden houses for them to live in.
