572 Discussion to Enter the Mountain
“Qinghai is quite stable. I heard that there was a strange phenomenon here, so Master and I came over to take a look.”
Su Xiaolu smiled.
“Come on in.”
Hearing that Gui You was also here, Su Chong felt much more at ease and brought Su Xiaolu in.
After entering, Su Xiaolu saw a huge map of the mountains and rivers on the table. Zhou Heng was marking them, and there were some unfamiliar faces in the room.
The endless fog seemed to be a barrier that separated the world inside the fog from the outside. No one knew what they would see after entering.
Seeing Su Xiaolu, Zhou Heng nodded at her calmly.
Su Chong sat down with Su Xiaolu and Liu Zijin. Zhou Heng was analyzing the situation. No matter how he looked at it, the fog was a place in another world.
This was unfamiliar to everyone. Zhou Heng’s preparations were comprehensive. He had prepared things that could last for a full seven days for everyone. Even if they were separated, they would not have to risk their lives to survive from the beginning. With this, at least they could prepare for the shock.
If everything was preserved, it could be used for seven days. If some were unfortunately lost, even if one or two were left, it could be used for a day or two. Everyone agreed with this.
As the sky turned dark outside, Zhou Heng looked at everyone and said, “We’ll enter the mountain in seven days. During this period of time, those who are capable can prepare some things themselves. Everyone will receive an advance of 30 taels of silver.”
He felt that he had considered everything, but everyone’s thinking was different. He had also left some time for everyone. They could also prepare some things themselves. Perhaps these unexpected things would bring about an unexpected effect.
After everyone left, Zhou Heng pressed his glabella and smiled gently at Su Xiaolu. “Xiaolu, let’s go eat.”
Su Xiaolu shook her head. “Third Brother, I should go back. The two Masters are still waiting for me to bring the news back. Let’s eat together tomorrow when you’re free.”
Zhou Heng looked at Su Chong and said, “Alright, Ah Chong, send Xiaolu back. Say hello to the two masters on my behalf.”
Su Chong nodded.
Su Xiaolu said goodbye to Liu Zijin and left with Su Chong.
On the way.
Su Xiaolu asked, “Brother, how do you feel after taking the pill?”
Su Chong smiled. “You’ve improved a lot. There’s a force in my dantian. It’s very pure and thick.”
He was the most suitable seedling for martial arts. After eating the pill, his entire body seemed to have developed, making it easier for him to cultivate. He felt that his strength had increased greatly. He did not know how much it had increased, but since he had met his Master, it was easy for him to try.
“It’s not just me. Hua and Shi are also starting to have Internal Breath. Father and Mother are in good health, and Mother’s hands have already recovered. Father, Father’s eyes have also grown halfway. However, they stopped growing. Second Brother guessed that it’s because they don’t have enough energy.”
Su Chong briefly told Su Xiaolu about the situation at home.
Now that the spiritual energy had recovered, it was no longer a secret. Not only in the Great Zhou Kingdom, but many cultivation techniques and secret manuals were sold in other countries. Everyone wanted to cultivate and become an Immortal.
Firstly, it was to touch the mysterious legend. Secondly, it was to strengthen himself.
Even the unarmed commoners were unwilling to be at the mercy of others.
“Xiaolu, how did you do in Qinghai? I heard that the big Kun and Sea Kun have appeared there. They’re very dangerous and fierce.”
Speaking of Qinghai, Su Chong looked worried.
Su Xiaolu smiled and said, “It’s quite stable over there. If we meet them, we just have to avoid them. Both of them don’t like to make too much noise. As long as the fishing boat is quiet.”
Kun could come out of the water, but that was only in an emergency.
Generally speaking, as long as people weren’t greedy, they could survive under the big Kun, but it was impossible for them not to be greedy. The big Kun and Sea Kun were elixirs for action.
Even she was scheming.
“Big Brother, don’t worry. I’m still too weak now. I won’t overestimate myself. I’ll only take action when I’m strong enough.”
Su Xiaolu smiled at Su Chong to reassure him.
“It’s good that you know what you’re doing. No matter what the world has become, we still have our parents and brother.”
Su Chong reached out and rubbed Su Xiaolu’s hair. He was also frantically adapting to this new change because he was the eldest brother. He had to protect his family behind him. He hoped that he could stand in front of Su Xiaolu one day.
During this period of time, their growth doubled.
Su Xiaolu smiled and nodded before returning to the inn.
Su Chong greeted Gui You and Old Wu respectfully, “Master, Uncle-Master.”
“We’ll talk while we eat.”
Gui You said calmly. He and Old Wu had waited for a long time and were hungry.
There was food in the inn, and the food arrived quickly.
Su Xiaolu also told the two Masters the news.
Everything was detailed. Old Wu and Gui You did not interrupt and listened quietly.
After Su Xiaolu finished speaking, Old Wu pondered for a moment before saying, “Girl, go and give us two silver taels tomorrow.”
It would be a waste not to use it. In any case, he was definitely going. If there was anything good, he naturally had to fish for it.
Gui You did not object and nodded. “Use this money to buy something.”
After saying that, Gui You looked at Su Chong. “Su Chong, can you get anything if you follow?”
Su Chong coughed lightly and said, “Master, I’m an official of the imperial court. I’m now under the Crown Prince’s orders.”
He could not take anything.
“Oh.”
Gui You’s expression was indifferent.
Old Wu clicked his tongue meaningfully.
Then, he said to Su Xiaolu, “Girl, even biological brothers have to settle accounts clearly. You can’t be muddle-headed about this, okay?”
Su Xiaolu nodded obediently.
Old Wu and Gui You could not find any flaws in Zhou Heng’s arrangements. Zhou Heng had considered it very carefully.
The next day, Su Xiaolu went to collect her money.
Liu Zijin also registered as usual. After she took the money. The three of them left the government office.
“Girl, do you know who you saw yesterday?”
Old Wu said mysteriously with his hands behind his back.
Su Xiaolu shook her head. She quickly hugged one of Old Wu’s arms and asked sweetly, “Master, Master, who are they? I see that they’re husband and wife, but why don’t they have children?”
“Why not? There are many children, but they can’t be shown to others.”
Old Wu stroked his beard, keeping Su Xiaolu curious.
Su Xiaolu ran left and right, either massaging his arms or pounding his back.
Gui You glanced sideways and said indifferently, “Chen Xi and Madam Tian have raised Gu for generations. The Gu they raise are their children. Under normal circumstances, as long as they don’t do anything immoral, their group will live a long life. The husband and wife will live a carefree life for dozens of years. After the age of sixty, they will take in disciples and nurture them. The disciples will usually be a man and a woman. The woman will raise female Gu and the male will raise male Gu. The two of them will grow up and get married together. This is the inheritance.”
