In the afternoon, people came back one after another.
"Come here, check your spiritual roots."
Lu Xuanji greeted the villagers and placed a black stone at the entrance of the village: "Come here, test the spiritual roots. As long as there are spiritual roots, the whole family will be exempted from food tax, and there will be a ten-stone grain subsidy every year."
He kept greeting and shouting, as if he was conducting a pyramid scheme.
A child was curious and stepped forward to touch the stone.
Lu Xuanji greeted the village chief, maintained order, and lined up for testing.
The children came one after another, but most of them had no spiritual roots.
"Can I?"
At this moment, an adult man said.
Lu Xuanji looked speechless in his heart. Uncle, you are already in your thirties, and you still join in Lu Xuanji's fun.
But when he opened his mouth, he said: "Okay."
The uncle stepped forward to test it, but there was no light.
"pity."
Lu Xuanji felt slightly regretful.
A few more uncles touched it curiously, but there was no light.
Although it was expected, I was still slightly disappointed.
After packing up the tea sets, he was about to leave.
"Damn girl, I'll beat you to death."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
"Let you run away again."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
At this moment, a thirteen-year-old girl was running in a hurry, wearing rags and rags; behind her was a woman chasing her with a stick.
He quickly caught up with the girl and hit her.
Bang bang.
The woman moved her hands without mercy at all.
The girl was whimpering and struggling in place, with fear and fear in her eyes, but she did not beg for mercy.
"Sister-in-law, if you hit someone like this, be careful to break it."
Lu Xuanji couldn't stand it anymore and said directly.
"Who are you and why are you meddling in other people's business..." the woman said, very aggressively, but when she saw the immortal master's dress, her tone immediately softened: "Master immortal, this is my child bride. This girl is eating secretly.
Things won’t work without beating them.”
"I didn't steal anything."
The girl said stubbornly.
Lu Xuanji was speechless.
In the mortal world, some systems of feudal society are maintained.
In the mortal world, women's status is very low.
Many families give birth to girls and drown them because they cannot afford to raise them;
Some families cannot afford to raise girls, so they just give them away.
A girl grows up in that family and becomes the daughter-in-law of a boy in that family. This is called a child bride.
As for the mother-in-law beating the daughter-in-law, it is natural.
It's really hard for him to interfere in these matters.
"That girl, I saw that you didn't test your spiritual roots, so come here and test it." Lu Xuanji said: "Anyone with a child bride or a girl at home should come out and have it checked."
"Girl's house, what are you testing?"
"Girl, you still want to become an immortal."
"It is virtue for a woman to have no talent."
"If men can't do it, how can women do it?"
Some villagers talked nonchalantly, seeming to be dissatisfied with the test for girls.
In big towns, many people are well-informed and ask their girls to go for testing; but in remote and backward villages, there is great resistance to testing girls.
Even though they were resisting, some girls still came out to get tested.
About fifteen girls came out and lined up to take the test.
Lu Xuanji sat there casually, waiting for it to end before leaving.
Suddenly, the black stone lit up.
Lu Xuanji looked attentively.
It was the girl who was beaten by her mother-in-law with a stick. At this moment, she pressed her palm on it, but the black stone was shining brightly.
"Yes, I have spiritual roots. Stand aside."
If Lu Xuanji is more casual, he won't be too happy.
Maybe it’s another five spirit roots.
Then, other girls came forward to test, and the remaining fourteen had no spiritual roots.
Not bad, at least the whole army was not wiped out.
"Girl, come with me."
Lu Xuanji said calmly.
"No, she is my son's wife, she can't leave," the mother-in-law shouted.
"Ha ha."
Lu Xuanji smiled and directly opened a certificate and handed it over, "This is the certificate. With this certificate, your family is exempted from receiving grain. Not only that, but there are also ten stones of grain every year. Can you give this grain to your son again?"
Get a wife."
"Can."
My mother-in-law happily received the certificate.
Turning around, Lu Xuanji said, "Girl, what's your name?"
"Erya."
"This is your nickname. What is your nickname?"
"I don't have a name."
"That's all, I'll give you a name." Lu Xuanji frowned and was about to give this woman a name, but he couldn't think of a good name for a while, so he was spoiled for choice.
"Sir, do you want me to be your wife?"
the little girl asked.
"Haha, if you want to be my wife, you must at least have three spiritual roots." Lu Xuanji said domineeringly.
"Little girl, let's go."
As he spoke, he took out a wooden horse from the storage bag.
As he stimulated his true energy, the wooden horse immediately grew in size.
The wooden horse is about one and a half meters tall and two meters wide, making it look mighty and extraordinary.
Lu Xuanji stepped forward, picked up the little girl, and climbed directly onto the wooden horse. He hugged the child and drove the wooden horse. The wooden horse started running at a speed of fifty meters per second, and ran away into the distance, leaving only the villagers screaming in surprise.
"Ahhh."
The little girl exclaimed, seeming a little scared, but also seemed to be happy.
The wooden horse is considered a low-level talisman and only requires ten spirit stones.
About half an hour later, we arrived at Danyang County.
The wooden horse stopped and became smaller, and Lu Xuanji put it into the storage bag.
"Like it?"
Lu Xuanji asked with a smile.
"I like it," the little girl said.
"When you become an immortal master, you can also buy a wooden horse."
Lu Xuanji killed her with a slap on the head and took the little girl into the county town.
In Danyang County, there is a monk who is at the ninth level of Qi training, and there are other monks from the family who hold some official positions in the county and maintain order in the city.
After walking, we arrived at the north courtyard of the county town.
In the courtyard, there are four children living, and now there is one more.
After the test is completed, the children with spiritual roots will be taken to Ziyang Mountain.
"Erya, check the properties of the spiritual root."
In the small dark room, Lu Xuanji greeted him and asked for an attribute test. On the table were eight light balls, representing gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder and ice.
Erya was slightly nervous and pressed his palm on the metallic light ball.
But after waiting for ten breaths, the light ball did not shine.
Seeing that the light ball did not shine, she thought her grades were very poor. Erya was so nervous that she almost cried. She cried and said, "Am I very poor?"
"No, you're not bad, keep going."
Lu Xuanji smiled.
The golden ball of light did not shine, which proved that Erya had at least four spiritual roots.
Erya put her palm on the wood-attributed light ball again and held on for ten breaths, but it still didn't light up. She thought she was bad, and this time she really cried.
Bah!
Bah!
Lu Xuanji did not smile, but he was happy in his heart.
This girl has at least three spiritual roots.
Yes, yes, Sanlinggen is qualified to be my wife.
Then, I pressed on the third light ball, but it still didn't light up.
Erya cried very hard.
Yes, this is the second spiritual root.
"Oh my god...this is the second spirit root."
Lu Xuanji's mind was in confusion.
In the thousand-year history of the Lu family, only two Erlinggens were born.
Erlinggen, also known as Zifu Seed.
Among the ten monks with two spiritual roots, five have entered the realm of Zifu.
Erya pressed on the fire attribute light ball again, and the light ball shone brightly.
Looking at the shining ball of light, a smile appeared on his face.
"It seems that your attributes are fire and earth. If you have fire as the main element and earth as the supplement, you will be the best among the two spiritual roots; if you have earth as the main element and fire as the supplement, you will be relatively poor among the two spiritual roots." Lu Xuanji commented.
.But no matter how bad the second spiritual root is, it is still a second spiritual root.
Erya placed her palm on the last light ball, but the light ball did not shine.
