Xiaoyaoshanjun

Chapter 174 Heredity
The exam is held when the weather gets cooler in autumn, and there are still one or two months left.

Since it is a blessing, you must go and see it. Otherwise, if you miss it, you will fall into it.

If you believe it, there will be nothing.

Believe that this is a blessing, and you will get it if you work hard in the past.

If you don't believe in this kind of good fortune that comes for no reason, it will naturally disappear.

Thinking of this, Tian Buli pondered over his attribute panel.

Why does the attribute panel appear? Why do I have this attribute interface? Why do I travel through time?

Tian Buli raised his hand, but did not touch anything. The palm he stretched out did not even touch the attribute interface he saw with his eyes, as if it was the difference between two worlds.

why?

Tian Buli was thinking.

Why am I the only one who has this attribute?

I still have memories of my past life. Why did I appear here after I died in my previous life?

Game? Dream?

Oh, yes, I am me!
I am who I am!!
Tian Buli's whole body trembled, and he quickly broke free from the confusion and nothingness.

"I am who I am, and I was born this way."

Tian Buli was talking to himself. The Li sisters next to him were removing their makeup. After hearing what he said, they looked over here curiously.

"Master, what did you just say?"

Tian Buli's mood improved as he watched the two beauties taking off their earrings and elegant outer clothes.

"Nothing, I have been practicing alone these days. What did your family say to you?"

The two sisters were only 21 or 22 years old. After hearing this, they sat down dignifiedly and replied, "They all praised us for being blessed and asked us to serve the master well."

Li Heshu said softly: "I cannot bear a child for you, Master. If you don't mind, you can take a few more beauties from the ones you met this time to bear your children."

Tian Buli lazily leaned on the quilt, crossing his legs leisurely, "What do I need so many children for? I like quietness, and having sex too much is not in line with the rules of a cultivator, so it's better to be moderate."

Li Hae-sook got up, moved on her knees to get closer to Tian Buli, and fanned Tian Buli with a small lady's fan.

"Master is right. It is better to practice."

Tian Buli fell asleep quickly while enjoying the fragrant breeze, without thinking about any messy things.

I am who I am!

You can doubt methods and things, but doubting yourself will disturb your mind.

Just like Princess Hanjiang and her husband, sometimes a thought or an idea can trap you for a lifetime.

Those who practice Taoism will experience various tribulations.

The easiest thing to happen is the mental tribulation, which is impossible to obtain, impossible to see through, impossible to break free from, impossible to figure out, and impossible to forget.

Only by breaking through the layers of dark clouds and all the mental barriers created by yourself can you soar into the sky.

Heart tribulation is most likely to occur when one is in trouble. Tian Buli realized that both of his heart tribulation problems occurred after he overused his magic power.

The last time was when he was controlling the flood, he used smoke and puffs to make his magic power disappear. This time, he also used the levitation spell to avoid mortals and inadvertently entered the maze.

What are you hiding from them for?
Not long after, the convoy arrived at Zhoujia, Henan.

The Zhou family and the Li family are not far away, so they had made preparations long ago.

Tian Buli did not waste any time. He went there in the morning and left in the afternoon.

Zhou Jiao gave birth to a girl and was not the legitimate daughter of the Zhou family. In addition, there had been no contact in the past two years, so she just sat for a while and then left.

At least the Li sisters still have family members in the Li family, and they also know many sisters who learn the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

Zhou Jiao used to be a maid in the inner courtyard. Her original fate was to marry any servant, not even as a concubine, because the Zhou family were all educated people and they valued matching the family background the most.

When Zhou Jiao returned, she couldn't always talk to the maids she knew before, so she was willing to leave early.

After leaving Zhou's house, we arrived at the Lan's territory in the evening.

The Lan family was responsible for managing a large grassland for the royal family, including a horse farm, a large number of pastures for cattle and sheep to graze, large tracts of fertile land, and many forest farms.

These fertile lands are all near large rivers and are branches of the Hanjiang River.

Lan He and Bai Lian are from the Princess's Mansion, while the Lan family is from the royal family, specifically responsible for the internal affairs of the royal family in Hanyang Province.

The area where the Lan family is located is also where the royal servants gather, similar to the base camp.

These people were also trapped in the same place by the road permit system and unable to move. Many of them had been responsible for animal husbandry and farming for generations and had no chance to go out and see the world.

The territory of the Jiangdong Lan family is much larger than that of the Li family. Not only is it larger, but many nearby tribes and cities are also part of the same system as them, so in fact its scope is even larger.

From the east side of the Hanjiang River, from the riverside to the mountains, and then to the valley and outside the valley.

As the imperial merchant family in charge of internal affairs, the Jiangdong Lan family’s sphere of influence extended to the east and west of the two states, and most of their descendants served in various royal and noble families.

Although he was a slave, as a professional steward of the royal families of the two regions, no ordinary officials dared to provoke him, either in terms of official position or actual status.

Precisely because the family is so large and has so many branches, they begin to compete with each other. If the main family is a little weaker, it will not be able to control the group of heads of the branch families.

Lan He and Bai Lian usually call each other sisters, but they are not actually biological sisters.

Although it was evening when Tian Buli's motorcade entered, Lan He Bai Lian's family members had people light big red lanterns to welcome them.

Tian Buli's convoy was led by Lan He's brother Lan Shansheng to the gate of the Lan family.

"Master, we're here."

Tian Buli got out of the car. He didn't need anyone to support him or help him with the steps.

Lan He and Bai Lian also got out of the car.

Lan He looked at the magnificent gate in front of him, as well as the two white horse sculptures on the left and right, and sighed, "This is the master's house. I often lived here when I was a child."

Lan Shansheng said with a smile: "Sister, what are you talking about? You can stay as long as you want when you come back."

Bai Lian held her son in her arms and looked at the gate in front of her, feeling envy and pride that no one else could understand. The head of the main family, Lan Jian, also came out to greet them with his son, daughter, granddaughter and grandson.

Lan Jian, who was in his seventies, quickly bowed and saluted: "Master, thank you for coming. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person. I hope you will forgive me!"

Tian Buli said politely: "No need to be polite, it's me who disturbed you."

Taoists have to be polite to everyone they meet, and even for a leader like Yu Lei Zi, it is normal for him to bow to ordinary people.

However, it is also normal for ordinary princes and nobles to pay respect to Taoist priests of all sizes.

Both sides have their own opinions. Tian Buli will not be cruel to ordinary people just because the princes are polite to him.

Ordinary officials could not tell the obvious differences between the Taoists. They could only feel who was more powerful but did not understand the actual gap.

Lan Jian looked at Bai Lian and Xiao Cong standing beside Tian Buli and said happily, "It is a blessing for the Lan family that my daughter can give birth to a son for the Taoist priest. Please go in and have a rest. There are mosquitoes outside."

Tian Buli walked in, stepped on the steps and entered the door. He went down the steps and walked around a screen wall, then found more than a dozen sedan chairs waiting there.

There was no need to ask, and soon a sedan chair came to pick people up. Next to the sedan chair there was a maid who was specifically responsible for lifting the pearl yellow curtain.

Tian Buli didn't say anything and just went in and sat down.

I haven't wasted any mana all day today, and it's basically at full capacity. Besides, this is the Lan family, so if I really encounter an accident here, it will definitely not be a small matter.

The sedan looked quite large from the outside, and after entering, I discovered that it was indeed quite large. It was a two-meter-long space, like a large bed.

Not only that, there were also two young female Taoist nuns wearing loose Taoist robes, which they wore as bathrobes.

"Taoist Priest!"

Two beautiful Taoist nuns wearing head crowns looked at Tian Buli lovingly, and their body language and eye hints were very obvious.

Tian Buli had no intention of having an extramarital affair, so he smiled and said to Bai Lian outside, "Let Lan He take care of the child, and you stay with me."

The child in Bai Lian's arms was unhappy. Xiao Cong said, "I want to ride in the sedan chair with my mother!"

Tian Buli smiled and said, "Then I'll go with your aunt, Lan He will come over."

"Okay!" Lan He had long wanted to deepen his relationship with Tian Buli, and was waiting to have some fun when he got home today.

After Gao Xing entered the sedan chair, Lan He was stunned and saw two female Taoist nuns inside.

How could Lan He not know what these two women do? He walked in quickly and said with a smile: "You two just watch quietly, and I will serve the Taoist priest."

The two nuns could only nod and watch.

The Lan family’s mansion is very large, like a tribe or a county town.

There are not only shops and courtyards, but also special facilities such as blacksmith shops and salt warehouse workshops.

Walking along the main road feels like shopping.

This is just the outer courtyard. Once the sedan chair enters the inner courtyard, it will feel like entering the inner courtyard of the imperial palace.

Even at night, you can feel the luxury here.

An hour had passed when we took the sedan chair directly from the palace to the real inner courtyard. The two beautiful Taoist nuns seemed to be arranged to entertain us and prevent this hour from being too boring.

At the banquet, not to mention the delicious food on the table, there were more than a dozen maids serving on both sides. The eight tables were all in one hall, and there were more than a dozen maids standing near each table.

Tian Buli felt like he was in a royal palace entertaining his ministers.

But after all, they are all fleeting clouds. No matter beautiful women or delicious food and wine, to Tian Buli, they are just scenery and he does not covet them or think about them.

The two nuns were still in the sedan chair, and it was unknown whether they had eaten or not. Lan Jian quickly raised his hand to the other table, "Come here, meet the Taoist priest."

More than a dozen young men and women from the Lan family came over, bowed and shouted, "Greetings, Taoist Priest!"

Tian Buli nodded, "You're welcome."

Lan Jian looked at Tian Buli and said carefully, "Master, I have heard that you have great magical powers and have given advice to the Princess and Master Qi. Have you ever thought about accepting a disciple?"

"Everyone in my Lan family is devoted to Taoism. Look at these children. If they can practice Taoism, you can follow them. If they can't, you can pick a few that you like and take them back to serve them."

"My Lan family's children are all obedient and easy to use. They can wash clothes and cook, farm and herd sheep, do accounting and manage the household, and are good at wielding swords."

Tian Buli smiled and said, "Master, you are too polite. I have only been practicing Taoism for a few years and I love to stir up trouble. I have to rely on the protection of the mountain gate. How can I be qualified to accept a disciple?"

"Even if I am a slave, I have already had several Taoist children around me."

Lan Jian was very disappointed after hearing this, "Alas...it seems they don't have this blessing."

Tian Buli said politely: "Master, please rest assured. If there is someone in your family who can practice Taoism, he will not be buried."

Lan Jian smiled awkwardly. If his family had a genius with outstanding performance like that, he would have sent him for testing long ago. Why would he wait until now?

Lan Jian looked at Bai Lian who was sitting next to him. Bai Lian was sitting at the same table with the old lady and other wives of the Lan family, and of course the boy Xiao Cong was also there.

"Master, does Cong'er have the talent to cultivate immortality?"

Tian Buli said calmly: "Cong'er is still young, so I can't tell, but Xiaoyuan should be there."

Bai Lian was feeding soup to Xiao Cong with a spoon. When she heard this, her hand holding the spoon froze.

Not only Bai Lian, Lan He and Zhou Jiao were also shocked, and even the Li sisters who were sitting nearby widened their eyes in disbelief.

Xiaoyuan was still eating quietly, but soon she felt that many people were looking at her. She suddenly became scared and aggrieved, and burst into tears as soon as she opened her mouth. Tears as big as soybeans kept falling.

Li Hezhen quickly hugged Xiaoyuan and comforted her happily: "Xiaoyuan, don't cry, don't cry, your father is praising you~ Good boy~ Good boy~"

Lan He leaned over to look at the dining table and couldn't help but ask, "Master, can Xiao Yuan really cultivate immortality?"

Tian Buli nodded and said, "Among my descendants, there will definitely be someone who can practice cultivation, but there is no need to force it. Let nature take its course. I am busy now and cannot take care of him. Let's wait until he is eight or nine years old."

With Tian Buli's affirmation, there was basically no doubt about the shy boy who was crying quietly in his mother's arms.

It is not certain what Xiaoyuan’s qualifications are at the moment, but the only thing that is certain is that bloodline can indeed be inherited.

Tian Buli can practice Taoism and use magic, and most of his descendants can do so too!
Bai Lian is in a complicated mood. She originally thought that having one child was enough, but now it seems that she must have a second or third child to maintain her status!
Li Hazhen was very cautious and tried her best to hide her joy, not daring to be too happy and cause others to be unhappy.

Li Hae-sook looked at Li Hae-jeong and the little boy who had just stopped crying in Li Hae-jeong's arms with envy, and couldn't help but touch her own belly.
