Beauty helps me achieve immortality

Chapter 254 Zhao's Arrangements for Garrisoning

A few days passed in a flash.

When Zhao Qing returned to Shouyun Mountain this time, he did not merge his thoughts with Si He again.

To be precise, Si He didn't let him touch his horns at all.

In the bluestone courtyard deepest in Shouyun Mountain, there were no bedrooms or kitchens, so the two could only sit on the ground and hug each other.

Si He is a strange beast that eats wind and drinks dew and sleeps in the mountains and forests.

She is also extremely greedy for worldly delicacies and loves to eat meat... but that is the young version of Si He.

She would communicate with Zhao Qing in a very arrogant manner. Although she was soft-hearted and tough-mouthed, she was full of curiosity about everything. When she was in an awkward moment, she would turn into a little fox and crawl into Zhao Qing's arms.

But what he saw this time was obviously another side of Si He.

She is a thousand times colder than Xiaoyi, but she has a unique kind of affinity.

The woman leaned lightly among the dead trees, her dark eyebrows slightly furrowed, holding Zhao Qing's wrist, guiding the spiritual power in his body to circulate the secret of controlling objects... which she had obtained from Dao Xin.

After streamlining, it was given to Zhao Qing to control the Hanguang Sword and the Blood Seal.

The vast spiritual power of the Spirit Transformation Realm did not cause any discomfort to Zhao Qing. Instead, it was like a pool of sweet spring water that nourished his Taoist foundation and meridians.

Only after she had circulated the spell three times did she withdraw her spiritual power and lean against the man's chest as if it were a stone pillow.

Although it was a very common action, when she looked at Zhao Qing lazily, it seemed more like a gift that could not be refused.

Zhao Qing ignored the terrifying pressure and simply turned the woman's head over and dragged her into his arms.

When he first met Si He, he was totally panicked.

But now I have gotten used to it, and coming into contact with Si He's demonic appearance feels a little strange... but more of a thrill.

"Ah."

Sensing Zhao Qing's thoughts, Si He hummed softly.

"Don't feel strange, it's just that the transformed form looks different."

Zhao Qing stroked his white hair and asked doubtfully, "Is that so? I even feel like his personality and tone have changed."

Si He's beautiful eyes closed lightly, and when they opened again, they turned into dark and deep vertical pupils.

She looked down at Zhao Qing, leaning against his chest and speaking indifferently, "This way you can feel your own lowliness."

"Isn't it?"

"Ants..."

Zhao Qing: ???

So it’s just to make trouble for me! ?

……

After returning to Songshan, Zhao Qing and his family practiced intensively, and occasionally imagined the future.

When they no longer need to stay in Shangfang, they will prepare to move back to Danxia.

Shuyue was born in Lu Niu County and was very familiar with the place.

As for my aunt and Qinghuan, needless to say, they are originally from the Danxia Sect.

Moreover, there is no sect in Dan County now, which is very suitable for them to settle down permanently.

But this time, I will definitely not live in Dingzimohaoyuan... I can build a big house on the mountain, so that the whole family can accompany Si He.

In this way, Si He would not feel that the mountain was too cold and lonely, and there was no place safer than Shouyun Mountain in the entire Yongning Prefecture.

Things like infrastructure construction completely hit Shuyue's excitement point.

While Zhao Qing was still refining the elixir with Qinghuan and Xiaoyi was absorbing the rare treasure of the blood-stained robe, his young wife had already begun to draw up a blueprint.

It's already chilly in Songshan in autumn.

In the quiet bedroom, Zhao Qing and Qing Huan's consciousness intertwined, and they were studying the top-grade Baipo Pill.

Even though Qinghuan's consciousness was not concentrated enough to refine this pill, her Nine Wonderful Medicinal Body's extreme affinity for the elixir grass could help Zhao Qing make up for some of his omissions.

The two people who have been together for a long time do not need any communication at all. They cooperate seamlessly from concentrating the elixir and distinguishing the adjuvants to making extremely subtle adjustments after differentiating the medicinal properties.

Beside the huge soft couch, mist rises, making the sunlight coming through the window even more colorful.

Shuyue soaked in the red medicinal soup to condense her blood and energy. Her wet long hair was tied up, and she leaned on the edge of the bathtub very relaxedly... and slowly engraved the jade slip with her spiritual consciousness.

After Zhao Qing finished cooking a pill, his little wife whispered to herself.

"We probably won't need the underground palace anymore. We can just build the base with turquoise stone and expand the house."

"Leave a thirty-meter stage for Xiaoyi to perform, preferably behind the main room, so that we can see her through the window from the bed."

"If Qing Huan wants to make elixirs, she also needs a special quiet room."

"I'll just build a fourth-order spirit gathering array into the bed, so I'll have ample spiritual energy to dispatch at all times..."

Zhao Qing smiled and listened quietly to Shuyue's story.

This can be considered a glorious return to their hometown. Although Danxia's former disciples have moved away, this is exactly what their family wants.

The T-shaped courtyard where I lived before, or the houses in Lanxian Town and Songshan now, were all built by others. After all, they are not as good as those planned by myself.

Right now, Qinghuan is about to complete the thousand-day foundation-building. After Shuyue completes her foundation-building, the whole family will have a long lifespan and abundant resources for cultivation... There will be no problem living in Shouyun Mountain for a hundred years.

This house truly belongs to your family, so it must be planned carefully.

Zhao Qingqing picked up Gu Qinghuan's delicate body and put her on the soft couch. He then sent a telepathic message to his aunt, asking her to come back to the bedroom first.

Qing Huan's phoenix eyes fluttered, and she chuckled softly in her master's ear, saying, "Qing Huan's alchemy room doesn't need to be too big. It can be similar to Danxia's alchemy room No. 80 from the early days."

"I can only fit a small bed. Although I can use my spiritual sense to transform the alchemy furnace, I still need to prepare the alchemy platform and chains..."

Zhao Qing listened to the bold words in his ear and gently pinched the beautiful woman's nose: "Are you going to make the elixir?"

Gu Qinghuan smiled and said, "When the master was refining the elixir, Qinghuan accompanied him."

Xiaoyi's teasing voice came from outside the bedroom.

"Will it be just the two of you in there alone, leaving Shuyue and I in the bedroom?"

The door was pushed open and a cold wind blew in my face.

Zhou Xiaoyi, dressed in a hibiscus brocade robe, looked at Qinghuan with a smile. Gu Qinghuan looked back and said, "You and Shuyue can go too. Qinghuan will accompany you to make the elixir."

Zhou Xiaoyi raised her eyebrows and smiled without saying anything.

She closed the door, picked up a towel, and bent over to wipe Shuyue's wet hair.

"Qinghuan and I also need a piano room so we can play music for you in our free time."

"Hmm..." Shuyue thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll make a note of it."

"I've also left a study and a small bedroom for you."

For a long time, when their family rested at night, Zhao Qing would sleep with Shuyue and Qinghuan under the same quilt.

Xiaoyi rarely joins them in fooling around, only two or three days a month. She prefers to be alone with Zhao Qing.

The young wife took the towel, wiped the dew off her shoulders, and asked with a crisp smile, "Xiaoyi, why don't you also accompany your husband to make the elixir?"

"Snapped!"

The medicinal liquid in the bathtub was stirred by the water and hit Shuyue's buttocks firmly.

The woman looked at Zhao Qing provocatively, and said with a smile: "It depends on your ability~ As long as you can control me, I will do anything you want."

Before Zhao Qing could say anything, Shuyue spat, "You're so stubborn!"

"Ah! I was wrong... wrong, wrong!"

The two of them fell on the bed, shoving and laughing. The four of them stayed together and checked the jade slip of the house that Shuyue had engraved.

"There's no need for a martial arts training ground. We can fight each other anywhere on Shouyun Mountain."

"We have to leave a larger yard for Si He..."

"The main hall will still be used for offering incense. When the time comes, bring Si He with you to burn incense for her."

……

winter day.

With the help of the top-grade Baipo Pill, Zhao Qing advanced directly to the middle stage of foundation building.

Since he became a disciple of the Blood Robe Sect, he has broken through three small realms in succession. Although he cannot do without the assistance of the Flower of Delusion and the Hundred Breaking Pills, his cultivation speed is also extremely terrifying.

Not to mention that Zhao Qing now possesses three top-grade spiritual roots and has no shortage of resources for cultivation... He has also already prepared the rare treasures for condensing the golden elixir.

It can be predicted that in thirty years at most, the State of Chu will have one more great cultivator at the Jindan realm.

After breaking through the realm, Zhao Qing used all his energy to sharpen his spiritual sense and study the secrets of controlling objects given to him by Si He.

Apart from the combination skills developed through hard work on the panel, the Blood Seal and the Light-containing Sword are now his main means. One is bright and the other is dark, and they work together to perfection.

Even Si He highly praised him, saying that even if he did not have the Azure Dragon Seal, he could easily become a blood son in the Yongning Trial.

In my spare time.

The whole family went back to Shouyun Mountain together.

Many craftsmen were found from Lu Niu County, and construction began in the deep mountains to build the house ahead of time.

After constant revisions and corrections, the originally crude drawings were finally sketched out by my aunt's skillful hands.

The stonemasons and bricklayers were so shocked when they saw the straw paper that they were speechless.

With Xiaoyi's requirements for stone materials, it would cost tens of thousands of taels of gold. As long as the house is built, the generous reward will be enough to make them rich for generations.

Zhao Qing directly displayed his cultivator's skills, taking out boxes of gold from his storage ring and delivering them, even giving a lot more.

A small amount of gold and silver is only worth a thousand spirit stones, which is not even as valuable as a foundation-building pill.

What a monk lacks is never a big house.

But a stable living environment, abundant resources for cultivation...these are no longer a problem.

To build a house on Shouyun Mountain, there is no need for any rare spiritual treasures or formation carvings; ordinary craftsmen are capable of doing the job.

Si He naturally became the supervisor, silently watching the fir trees in the mountains fall down, the soil and rocks being dug up... and the craftsmen began to build the base.

Occasionally, she would secretly take action to drive away wild beasts to prevent them from hindering the construction progress of the house.

The white-haired girl leaned lightly in the dead forest, a hint of complexity revealed in her bright eyes.

More than three hundred years...

The days ahead shouldn't be too boring.

……

Just half a year passed in a flash.

Zhao Qing did not wait for the Blood Son Trial to begin, but encountered another trouble.

The year of Ding Si, the beginning of the year.

The Lanqingji Secret Realm in Yongning Prefecture, which opens once every ten years, opens. High-level monks from various major sects enter the secret realm, causing chaos in the eighteen countries.

Of course, this struggle for resources between clans has nothing to do with Zhao Qing.

but……

The Sun and Zheng families in Songshanfang are obviously not easy to deal with.

The two families, who had been holding a grudge against each other for a long time, fought each other, causing a bloody storm in Songshanfang.

In just one night, dozens of shops in Fangnan were destroyed and more than a hundred wandering cultivators were killed or injured.

Fortunately, Zeng Nian Ke was in charge of the Blood Robe Tower and it was not affected.

Snowflakes were floating in the sky. In the stone pavilion in the front yard, the shopkeeper Zeng was explaining the current situation to Zhao Qing and his family.

The beautiful woman took the hot tea handed to her by her aunt and thanked her softly.

She did not seem to be panicking at the moment. There were guards stationed in the trading house, and they were used at this moment.

"Elder Murong, who was in charge of the mine, followed the Changsheng Sword Sect into the Lanqingji Secret Realm."

"The Sun family must have made preparations long ago, intending to wipe out the Zheng family before the secret realm ends, so that they can monopolize Songshan."

Zhao Qing nodded slightly.

He didn't know exactly what the arrangement was between the Changsheng Sword Sect and the two families, but basically he was like a younger brother.

The shops in Songshanfang earn a lot of resources from the independent cultivators every year. If any of the two cultivation clans in Songshan is missing, the other one will thrive.

Although the Sun family took action first, it was obvious that the Zheng family had no good intentions either.

"Several Foundation Establishment guests from the Merchants' House have already left Songshan House."

"The Zheng family lost a Foundation Establishment cultivator last night. Now there are still eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the Sun family has ten."

Zhao Qing smiled awkwardly.

The cultivators from these two families combined have almost twenty who have reached the foundation-building stage. There weren't so many before... It was because he and Qinghuan sold a lot of top-grade foundation-building pills in Songshan that the strength of these two families was able to grow rapidly.

My aunt's beautiful eyes fluttered as she asked softly, "What are Shopkeeper Zeng's plans?"

Zeng Nianke covered her mouth and laughed sweetly: "Nianke will naturally follow the arrangements made by Zhao the garrison commander."

Zhao Qing slowly put down the teacup and looked at his aunt. They both understood what the other meant.

What kind of arrangement is this?

More than half of the shops in Songshanfang belong to these two companies. Once a fight breaks out, all the independent cultivators will run away, and Xueyi Shop will not make any money. It is better to just take them away and run away.

Although with their family's current foundation, they are not afraid even if facing more than ten foundation-building masters.

But that idiot Sun Zhaolin was obviously well prepared. He had been accumulating energy for ten years and was waiting for the fight now.

I get a share of the profits from the blood-stained clothes, so I am still half a businessman.

But we can't kill all the monks from these two families just for the sake of business, right?

And he will soon participate in the Blood Son Trial...

Zeng Nianke is still Shen Mo's woman...

During the Jingzhe period, I could even follow Liu Zijing to the Blood God Peak for a banquet...

Zhao Qing waved his hand.

"We'll have the business done in half a day."

"Send a message to all the guests, and bring the female cultivators working in the merchant building. I will take you back to Changshengfang for temporary shelter."

Zeng Nianke's beautiful eyes lit up, and she stood up: "Nianke will arrange it right away."

Zhao Qing nodded and said, "Just bring people here later."

……

After the beautiful woman left, Shuyue propped up her chin and spat, "That guy surnamed Sun is really unreliable!"

Zhou Xiaoyi chuckled and shook her head: "If the two families don't take action now, they will have to endure each other for another ten years. It would be better to put an end to it."

"Shall we rent some houses in Changshengfang?" She looked at her man.

"We've rented some mansions in Huashu Lane, which is enough for these cultivators to settle down for half a year. There's also a second-level spirit gathering formation there."

Zhao Qing was very generous and planned to spend more than ten thousand spirit stones on renting the best shelter from the Changsheng Sword Sect for the guests and female cultivators of the merchant shop.

Huashu Lane is located in the very center of Changshengfang. It is usually inhabited by casual cultivators who have established their foundation, or at the very least, those who are in the late stage of Qi training. It has all kinds of spiritual formations for cultivation. This standard is more than enough to accommodate guests from the merchant house.

"I'll send a message to Shen Mo. Zeng Nian is still his mistress, and this guy won't say a word."

Zhao Qing has been messing around in Songshan these years and has earned hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits. Now that he is about to stop being stationed there, he plans to give some of it back as a reward.

Moreover, he and his aunt had been guests of the business house before, so he felt more at ease if he could help them live a better life.
