Chapter 24 Return to Lotus Island

After Wang Changxing was detected with five spiritual roots, he still refused to accept his fate and practiced very hard, but with little effect.

With the help of spiritual objects, people of the same generation could reach the second level of Qi refining at the age of ten, but Wang Changxing still stayed at the first level of Qi refining.

At the age of 15, most of the clansmen of the same age had cultivated to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and Wang Changxing barely reached the second level of Qi Refining.

As a result, Wang Changxing also looked away, and his mind on cultivation also calmed down, and he put his mind on eating and drinking.

The family couldn't make ends meet, and his aptitude was poor, so naturally he wouldn't be able to provide him with a large amount of spiritual objects, so he had no choice but to focus on the gourmet food in the secular world.

Wang Changxing, as an immortal cultivator, recruited ten skilled cooks from the secular clansmen to cook for him. In less than a year, Wang Changxing's weight more than doubled.

Although Wang Changxing is fat, this does not prevent him from doing things.

He worked as the waiter in the Linggu Hall opened by Wang's family, and was responsible for selling the Linggu.

Men with poor qualifications like Wang Changxing are usually engaged in low-level jobs. When they reach a certain age, they will marry wives and have children under the arrangement of the family, adding fresh blood to the family.

Wang Changxing does not reject this kind of arranged fate, on the contrary, he enjoys it very much. With his aptitude, no matter how hard he cultivates, he can at most cultivate to the sixth or seventh level of Qi refining in this life. Anyway, he has no hope of building a foundation, so he might as well live a carefree life , go to Linggu Hall to do things regularly, go back to Qinglian Mountain regularly, eat when you want, sleep when you want, as long as you don't violate the clan rules, the elders will not care about him.

When Wang Changsheng was young, he often played with Wang Changxing, and they had a good relationship.

"I'm taking a day off today. I can stay in Qinglian Mountain for a month. If you're not in a hurry, come and have a drink with me?" Wang Changxing warmly invited.

"Next time! I have to hurry back to Ping'an County!" Wang Changsheng politely refused.

Wang Changxing didn't pay much attention either, he was just saying polite things, after chatting for a while, he broke up with Wang Changsheng and walked up the mountain.

It was past noon when Wang Changsheng returned to Ping'an County.

He did not return to Lianhua Island immediately, but went to the quarry in Qingshi Town.

The quarry has been covered by a large white fog, and the situation inside cannot be seen clearly.

As soon as Wang Changsheng approached the quarry, a figure rushed out of the white fog, it was Wang Changge.

"Ninth Brother, didn't you go back to Qinglian Mountain? Why did you come back so soon? But what's the third uncle's order?" Wang Changge was a little surprised when he saw Wang Changsheng.

"No, I'm the celestial master of Ping'an County. When I come back to guard Ping'an County, wouldn't it be easier for fourth brother to attract attention if I set up a formation?" Wang Changsheng asked curiously, pointing at the white fog.

Wang Changge smiled slightly and explained: "This is what Uncle Wu meant. We're going to stay here for a few years. Instead of mining in secret, it's better to set up formations to mine ore openly. Without evidence, who would Come to trouble us? Besides, there is a defensive formation here, as long as the foundation-building monks do not take action, the Qi-refining monks will not be able to attack here."

Wang Changge is full of self-confidence. In addition to a set of first-order high-grade and a set of first-order middle-grade formations, there are more than 40 Qi refining monks stationed there. There are as many as three elders of the eighth level of Qi refining alone. The cultivator will never be able to attack. This place can be said to be impenetrable. Even if it is really attacked by the cultivator who established the foundation, he can still use the second-level low-grade Baili sound transmission talisman to call for help.With the foot speed of the monk who established the foundation, it took less than an hour to arrive.

"That's good. Is there anything I can do for you? If not, I'll go back to Lianhua Island."

"Let me take you to meet Uncle Wu! Let's see how Uncle Wu arranges it."

Wang Changge took out a square token, and lightly shook it towards the thick white fog behind him. A white light flew out of the token, and disappeared into the white fog in a flash.

The thick white fog billowed and surged, revealing a passage.

Wang Changsheng followed Wang Changge in, and a dozen tribesmen gathered around the location of the black gold vein, each holding a mining pick. They raised the pick high and smashed it hard on the golden-glowing stone wall. There was a sound of gold and iron colliding.

Pieces of ore glowing with gold were mined out one after another and put into storage bags.

Not far away was a tea table and a grand master's chair. Wang Yaojing was sitting on the grand master's chair, holding a book in his hand, reading it with gusto.

"Fifth Uncle, Ninth Brother is back."

Wang Yaojing put down the book in his hand, and asked suspiciously: "Changsheng, why did you come back so soon? Did Mingyuan ask you to bring me a message?"

Wang Changsheng shook his head and said, "No, Dad asked me to come back. I have already reported the incident to him. He asked me to go back to Ping'an County to sit in town. Does Fifth Uncle have any orders? If not, I will go back to Lianhua Island."

"You brat Mingyuan sent you back so soon." Wang Yaojing frowned.

He thought that Wang Mingyuan would let Wang Changsheng live in Qinglian Mountain for a few days, but he didn't expect Wang Mingyuan to send Wang Changsheng back so soon.

From a personal point of view, he felt that Wang Mingyuan was a little unreasonable, but from the overall situation, Wang Mingyuan acted fairly and did not keep Wang Changsheng to stay for a few more days, and sent Wang Changsheng back to Ping'an County overnight.

Wang Yaojing thought for a while, and said: "Forget it, since Mingyuan asked you to come back to Ping'an County, then you can go back to Lianhua Island! I haven't sent anyone to Lianhua Island yet, if there is something that can't be solved, come here to find me. It is also okay to pass the letter to the pigeons in the clan."

"Grandson obeys, grandson will leave." Wang Changsheng agreed repeatedly, saluted Wang Yaojing, turned and left.

Wang Changsheng returned to Qingshi Town and took Wang Qiusheng back to Lianhua Island.

The days were back to normal, practicing spells during the day and cultivating at night. In addition, he memorized the contents of "Outline of Refining Artifacts" by heart.

This is not only his mother's exhortation, but also his future.

With a vein of black gold that can be mined for three or four years, the Wang family will definitely be able to overcome the current difficulties.

Wang Yuangang, the ancestor of the Wang family, was a second-tier mid-tier refiner. After Wang Yuangang, there were several first-tier top-tier refiners. However, the family’s life became more and more difficult, so no more refiners could be trained. .

It is foreseeable that after the Wang family overcomes the current difficulties and has sufficient financial resources, they will definitely train their own craftsmen and restore the glory of their ancestors. At that time, it will be Wang Changsheng's chance.

If the Wang family wants to train a craftsman, he is likely to become the target of the family's training. After all, Liu Qing'er instilled Wang Changsheng with knowledge of crafts since childhood. At that time, Wang Changsheng didn't understand it. He felt that his mother was unnecessary, and even maintaining daily practice would be a problem. , learning the knowledge of refining equipment is a waste of time. Looking at it now, Wang Changsheng can't help but admire his mother's foresight.

When learning the knowledge of cultivating immortals, the clan elders only briefly introduced the basic principles of weapon refining, and more importantly taught the art of planting. After all, this is the main source of income for the family.

To put it bluntly, among the "elder" generations of the Wang family, Wang Changsheng's knowledge of crafting is the most solid.

Seven days passed quickly.
