Chapter 72: Rescue the Yuchen River Flood
"What's wrong? Xiao Lin'er."

Mu Yunsheng heard Shui Lin'er's question, walked to the study door, stopped as he was about to take a step, looked at her and asked.

That night he and Zhao Meiyu did not do anything too inappropriate between a man and a woman.

"It's okay...Brother Yunsheng, Xiao Lin'er hopes that if anything happens between Brother Yunsheng and Senior Sister Meiyu and the others in the future, Brother Yunsheng will tell Xiao Lin'er personally."

Shui Lin'er shook her head and looked at Mu Yunsheng in front of her. A smile appeared in Yueya'er's eyes again. She mustered up courage in her heart, her cheeks flushed, and then she spoke seriously.

"Also... Little Lin'er isn't little anymore. She can be as beautiful as Senior Sister Meiyu..."

"Hmm~" Shui Lin'er and Yue Ya'er's eyes opened wide, their red lips were blocked from speaking, and Mu Yunsheng bent down.

After tea time, in the living room on the first floor of the wooden house.

Mu Yunsheng walked down the stairs from the second floor. Shui Lin'er did not follow him, but ran back to her room with a blushing face.

All I can say is that he is both bad at it and loves to play.

In the living room on the first floor, four people were already sitting around the eight-immortal table for guests. They were all cultivators over the age of twenty, and two of them were female.

Mu Yunsheng knew one of the female cultivators. They had met once before. She was Yun Xiaorou, the female cultivator who served as a receptionist at Xiankeju.

As for the other two female cultivators, one is Liu Zhiyong, a member of the Liu family who is in charge of guarding the Yuxu Spiritual Field.

The other one was a man with a long beard, about fifty years old. He was not the guard of the Yuxu Spiritual Field.

The distribution of the four people sitting around the octagonal table clearly showed that Liu Zhiyong was the most respected.

"My dear friend Mu, I am here to disturb you again, haha~" Liu Zhiyong stood up and said with a smile when he saw Mu Yunsheng walking down the stairs.

His face showed a warm and happy smile, without a trace of looking down on Mu Yunsheng. With his own cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining, he jokingly called Mu Yunsheng, who was in the early stage of Qi Refining, "fellow Daoist."

"Brother Liu, you are too polite. Yunsheng is very happy to see you come. Why would I bother you?" Mu Yunsheng said with a smile and bowed to Liu Zhiyong.

This was not the first time that Liu Zhiyong had come to Mu Yunsheng's place in the past six days to eat the bitter spirit to restore his energy.

"Haha~ Young friend Mu, there's no need for these empty formalities. I've said it many times, we don't need these empty formalities." Liu Zhiyong said with a big smile, looking very close to Mu Yunsheng, and then introduced Yun Xiaorou and the other two.

"This is Yun Fuhou, the patriarch of the Yun family in Niushan. This is Yun Xiaorou, the patriarch's pearl, the third-level Qi Refining Fairy. This is Hu Cairan from Qingmu Temple."

"I, Yun Fuhou, am honored to meet you, young friend Mu." A man in his fifties with a long beard saluted Mu Yunsheng and said with a smile.

Looking at the clothes he was wearing, although they were robes made of spiritual silk and satin, the spiritual aura he emitted was already quite worn and dim.

And when he wore it, it didn't fit him well in many ways.

"Yun Nu greets Fellow Daoist Mu." Yun Xiaorou said to Mu Yunsheng with a smile on her face. There was a strange look in her eyes, as if she didn't know him.

"Hu Cairan greets Fellow Daoist Mu." Another female cultivator, Hu Cairan, saluted Mu Yunsheng. She was a cultivator over thirty years old and at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

"Junior Mu Yunsheng, greetings to Senior Yun, Senior Hu, and Fellow Daoist Yun."

Mu Yunsheng returned the greeting to the three of them. Seeing Yun Xiaorou pretending not to know him, he didn't understand why she did that, but he didn't bother to ask Liu Zhiyong instead.

"Brother Liu, please take a seat. I'll go make you some Bitter Spirit Rejuvenating Noodles. They're of Class C quality, right?"

After saying that, Mu Yunsheng looked at Liu Zhiyong, waiting for his answer.

In the past, when Liu Zhiyong and his friends came here, they mostly ate the C-quality bitter spirit recovery noodles, but sometimes they would occasionally order the B-quality bitter spirit recovery noodles.

The bitter spirit recovery noodles of grade C have the effect of restoring true essence. Although they are also effective for cultivators in the middle stage of Qi training, they are not of much help unless they eat four or five bowls in a row.

During the period when the bitter spirit recovery noodles are restoring the true essence, you should keep eating. Otherwise, a bowl of quality C bitter spirit recovery noodles can only help a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining to restore some true essence.

Liu Zhiyong and his friends ate the Grade C bitter spirit recovery noodles mainly for the purpose of tasting the spiritual charm and delicious taste contained in the bitter spirit recovery noodles.

The effect of the C-quality bitter spirit recovery surface in restoring true essence is not very important.

The B-grade bitter spirit recovery noodles can restore true essence, and are of great help to cultivators in the middle stage of Qi training.

And it’s even more delicious, with all the delicious essences of bitter wheat and sheep’s foot recovery root placed in your mouth.

But Mu Yunsheng sold it for three low-grade spirit stones, which was not enough for Liu Zhiyong and the others to eat every meal.
"Brother Mu, don't look at me. Although I brought guests here today, I am not the host." Liu Zhiyong said with a smile and looked at Yun Fuhou.

"Haha~ I'll treat you." Yun Fuhou said with a smile, and then asked Mu Yunsheng.

"I wonder how much the Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles are selling for, Young Master Mu. How much is the C-quality Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles? And how much is the B-quality Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles?"

"Senior Huiyun, one portion of C-quality Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles, one portion of six kilograms of Bitter Spirit Wheat, and one portion of B-quality Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles, three low-grade spirit stones."

Mu Yunsheng saluted and replied, not caring who would be the host between Yun Fuhou and Liu Zhiyong.

"Fortunately, a portion of six kilograms of bitter spirit wheat and a portion of the Tai Family Restaurant's C-grade bitter spirit recovery noodles cost one low-grade spirit stone."

"Although the price of a B-grade bitter spirit recovery noodle is high, requiring three low-grade spirit stones, the Tai Family Restaurant does not sell B-grade bitter spirit recovery noodles."

When Yun Fuhou heard Mu Yunsheng's answer, he nodded and smiled on his bearded face. After looking at Liu Zhihu beside him, he said.

"Then I'll trouble you, Young Master Mu, to make us two portions of B-quality bitter spirit recovery noodles and two portions of C-quality bitter spirit recovery noodles. Let's see the difference between these two qualities of bitter spirit recovery noodles."

"Okay, Senior Yun, Brother Liu, please sit down for a moment." Mu Yunsheng replied, walking towards the kitchen with a smile on his face.

Today, another seven low-grade spirit stones and two kilograms of bitter spirit wheat came into the account.

In the kitchen.

Zhao Meiyu listened to the conversation between Mu Yunsheng and Liu Zhiyong in the living room, and had already prepared the bitter spirit wheat and sheep's foot recovery root for making four servings of bitter spirit recovery noodles.

However, he did not leave the kitchen. When he saw Mu Yunsheng walk in, a smile appeared in his heroic eyes, and he spoke in a low voice with a smile.

"Brother Yunsheng, the bitter spirit wheat and sheep's foot recovery root for making the bitter spirit recovery noodles are ready."

"Okay~" The smile on Mu Yunsheng's face collapsed, but a smile from the bottom of his heart arose, and he nodded to Zhao Meiyu with a gentle smile.

Then he walked to the stone mill in the kitchen and started making the bitter spirit healing noodles.

"Sha~Sha~" The sound of the stone mill grinding bitter wheat was heard, and the stove was quiet.

Zhao Meiyu did not leave the kitchen, and helped Mu Yunsheng from time to time, learning from him how to make the bitter spirit recovery noodles.

In the living room outside the kitchen. "Everyone, sit down." Liu Zhiyong sat down first, looked at Yun Xiaorou and the other two, and then looked at Yun Fuhou and Hu Cairan, and continued.

"This time, Liu received a notice from the clan, and together with fellow Daoists Yun and Hu, we are dealing with the dangers of flooding in many areas along the Yuchen River due to the heavy rains over the past six days."

"The Yuchen River region belongs to the dynasty of my Liu family's ordinary people. Many of them live there. The Yun family and Qingmu Temple of my two fellow Taoists are also located in the Yuchen River region."

"I also ask the two fellow Daoists to cooperate with Liu and work together to resolve the many potential flood hazards in the Yuchen River area."

"Of course. It's our honor to serve the Liu family, the elixir master. When the time comes, just give us your instructions, and we will definitely follow through." Yun Fuhou quickly assured and replied with a smile.

"Please rest assured, Fellow Daoist Liu. All the cultivators in Qingmu Temple are already waiting for your arrangements." Hu Cairan also spoke.

"Yeah~" Liu Zhiyong nodded with a smile on his face and a hint of pride in his eyes. He was not as generous and friendly as he had shown to Mu Yunsheng before.

There was no concealment in his eyes as he looked at Yun Xiaorou.

"Xiaorou, haven't you always been yearning for the way of elixirs? Now that Daoist Liu is free, why don't you go and ask for his advice?"

When Yun Fuhou saw this scene, instead of anger appearing on his face, he was filled with joy and quickly spoke to Yun Xiaorou.

"Yes, father." Yun Xiaorou's eyes changed slightly, and then a bright smile appeared on her face. She swayed her waist and walked towards Liu Zhiyong.

………………

“Wow~wow~”

At night, the heavy rain in the area near Yuxu Lingtian continued to fall without any sign of slowing down.

"Hu~" Mu Yunsheng exhaled a long breath of waste gas produced by his practice from his nose and mouth, and sat quietly in the Qingyun Lingmi Lingtian, absorbing and refining the spiritual energy for his practice, and then opened his eyes.

There is a small bamboo house around his body to block the heavy rain falling from the night sky. This was built by him in the Qingyun Lingmi Lingtian five days ago.

The practice of refining spiritual energy in the spiritual field to assist in cultivation has never been interrupted for a single day.

"The Liu family has already started to deal with the problem. The six consecutive days of heavy rain around the Yuchen River have created a potential flood risk. It seems the area around the Yuxu Spiritual Field is likely to be affected."

"The heavy rain these past few days has indeed been quite severe. It has already caused flooding in the Yuchen River. I'm not sure if it will continue like this."

"Will the foundation-building cultivators of the seven families take action to dispel the heavy rain near the Yuxu Spiritual Field?"

Mu Yunsheng thought and whispered in his heart, his true energy covering his whole body, and he walked out of the small bamboo house. He also heard the conversation between Liu Zhiyong and others in the living room today without any concealment.

As one of the seven top cultivator forces in Qianyuanzhou, the Lingdan Liu family will take the initiative to control the floods around the Yuchen River to prevent the mortals living nearby from being affected by flood disasters.

Mu Yunsheng was not surprised. Although cultivators were superior to mortals, they were still mortals.

What's more, the Lingdan Liu family is a family-style cultivator force. Although there are many cultivators in the family, they can give birth to children with spiritual roots, but they are ordinary members of the Liu family in Qianyuanzhou.

However, it is still a base for the Lingdan Liu family. Every year, many children with spiritual roots are detected and enter the Lingdan Liu family to practice, thus strengthening the Lingdan Liu family's cultivator power.

When Mu Yunsheng was practicing in Caoyang, the land of the Mu family, he saw that the mortals in this world actually lived quite well, despite the social structure of an ancient dynasty.

However, because of the presence of monks, there are no large-scale natural disasters or man-made disasters, and people have no worries about food and drink.

Some useless things passed down in the world of monks are like treasures to mortals.

Just like the ordinary people of Mu Yunsheng's Mu family, they mainly eat a kind of rice, jalapeno rice, which can yield up to 800 kilograms per mu and can be harvested three times a year.

This is a failed product produced by the spiritual rice cultivated by the monk spiritual plant master.

In the mortal world, the plague virus, which is most likely to cause large-scale deaths among mortals, is not difficult to deal with for monks.

The monastic forces in each region will not allow large-scale deaths of mortals in their region. They will take action to control and stop the monks from carrying out large-scale massacres of mortals.

This is also the reason why Mu Qinghu did not personally take action when he was trying to eliminate the two bandits from Miao Mountain and the Taoist sect of Luoxia Mountain, but instead asked Mu Yunsheng's elder brother, Mu Yunying, to lead the mortal innate warriors of the Mu family to carry out the elimination.

However, even so, they did not dare to carry out a large-scale massacre and kill all the mortals in Luoxia Mountain who were related to the two bandits of Miao Mountain. They only killed males within three generations.

Otherwise, the royal family of Zhou State, to which Luoxia Mountain belongs, will definitely report the cultivator forces behind them, the spiritual weapon Zhou family, one of the seven top forces in Qianyuan State.

Hold accountable Mu Qinghu, Mu Yunsheng and other Mu family cultivators.

This is not to say that monks have any responsibility to protect mortals and safeguard the safety of the world, but monks know in their hearts that if the mortals in their area die on a large scale and no mortals survive.

As for the status they belong to, there will be fewer and fewer monks appearing in the future, and they will be defeated. Both the family monk forces and the sect monk forces need to be replenished with fresh blood.

"Crack~"

Mu Yunsheng pushed open the door and walked into the living room of the wooden house. He dispersed the true energy covering his body, leaving him without a trace of rain or mud.

"Brother Yunsheng, you have completed your training."

In the living room of the wooden house, Shui Lin'er and Zhao Meiyu had not yet rested. They were playing chess by candlelight.

"Well, Xiao Lin'er, Meiyu, aren't you guys taking a rest yet?" Mu Yunsheng replied with a smile, and walked over. He saw that Shui Lin'er's chess piece on the chessboard had all its escape routes cut off by Zhao Meiyu.

"We'll take a break after this game." Shui Lin'er replied. Yue Ya'er's eyes were focused on the chess pieces on the board, trying to find a way out.

"Don't play too late." Mu Yunsheng looked at the time and the trend on the chessboard for a moment, and decided in his heart that Shui Lin'er was beyond saving. He secretly gave Zhao Meiyu a look to let her go, said with a smile, and turned to walk towards the study on the second floor.

If Zhao Meiyu doesn't let her go, Shui Lin'er won't be able to sleep tonight.

"Ahem~ Xiao Lin'er, let's stop playing and go have a rest, okay? Senior Sister Meiyu is so sleepy." Seeing that Mu Yunsheng had left, Zhao Meiyu pretended to be sleepy and said to Shui Lin'er, shuffling the chess pieces on the board.

"Okay, then Senior Sister Meiyu, let's go and rest first." Shui Lin'er said regretfully, but a sly smile flashed across Yueya'er's eyes, which seemed to be concentrating on the chessboard.

Like a little fox who has achieved his wish.

In the study on the second floor of the wooden house.

Mu Yunsheng walked in, lit the candle in the study, and then took out the two low-grade spirit stones he had earned today from Yun Fuhou, Liu Zhiyong and others.

"I have fifteen low-grade spirit stones. I still need twenty low-grade spirit stones to buy Tianlong the Sky Centipede Fruit. However, the ten Sheep's Foot Recovery Roots I bought recently are almost gone."

"We also need to set aside some money to purchase Sheep's Foot Recovery Root to make the Bitter Spirit Recovery Noodles and practice the production of the Dry Green Supporting Cloud Noodles."
