To Mu Ershun, Lu Changan was not only his Uncle Lu, but also his master of talisman arts.
This kind of relationship is second only to biological father.
Mu Ershun is thirty-seven or eighteen years old, nearly forty years old.
He is at the seventh level of Qi refining and is a senior first-level mid-level Talisman master. His achievements today are inseparable from Lu Changan's support.
"Er Shun, I haven't seen you for many years, and I look more and more like your father."
Lu Changan smiled and saw Mu Ershun's slightly bulging belly.
He waved and asked Mu Ershun and Lin Lu to come in and sit down.
"Uncle Lu, this is a gift my father asked me to bring."
Mu Ershun handed over a storage bag.
Lu Changan opened the storage bag, scanned it briefly, and moved slightly.
The storage bag contains materials for the Foundation Building Pill, worth several hundred spirit stones.
These materials are not the same as those given by Zhao Siyao back then.
"I understand your father's wishes."
Lu Changan accepted the material without refusing.
Even if these materials basically overlap with what he collected.
But one of the suet bottles.
The clear liquid inside is the auxiliary medicine "February Tears" that Lu Changan currently lacks.
The value of February tears itself is not outstanding, and its effect is not outstanding. It must be generated in a specific environment and is rare.
In this way, Lu Changan only lacked the Xuanling Fruit as the material for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"With Erqing's worth, he can work part-time as a spiritual planter at most. How can he easily come up with this resource? Moreover, he also plans to build a foundation."
Lu Changan noticed the clues.
He immediately asked Mu Ershun about Mu Jiuan's situation.
"Jiu'an was accepted as a disciple by a foundation-building senior and left Feiyue Lake a year ago."
Mu Ershun replied.
This statement is inconsistent with what was stated in the letter.
Li Erqing is no longer the simple peasant boy he was back then. He has rich life experience and it is normal to have a city.
Lu Changan speculated that there might be hidden details in this matter that were not mentioned in the letter.
Mu Ershun came to Huanglong Fairy City mainly to greet his father and show his filial piety.
He stayed for two days, received guidance from Lu Chang'an on his fu skills, and left Huanglong Fairy City.
…
Two years later.
Lu Changan is sixty-one years old, and his cultivation is approaching the ninth level of Qi Refining.
On this day, news of the death of Taoist priest Guan came.
His death was sudden, earlier than Lu Changan expected.
Guan Qiaozhi cried like a tearful person, blaming herself for being distracted and not taking good care of her master.
Lu Changan conducted an autopsy and confirmed that the death was a normal one.
A few months before his death, Taoist priest Guan privately purchased powerful supplements to extend his life.
When I first started taking it, my energy level improved a lot, but it actually squeezed my body's functions and turned it into a life-threatening poison.
Taoist priest Guan was Lu Changan’s guide in cultivating immortality in this life.
Out of respect, he and Guan Qiaozhi arranged the funeral together.
According to Guan Daochang's last will and testament, he kept everything simple and scattered his ashes in the mountains surrounding Huanglong Fairy City.
As a disciple, Guan Qiaozhi observed filial piety for a hundred days.
After that, she officially moved to Shuiyueju and took care of Lu Changan's daily life.
…
When Guan Qiaozhi came in, Lu Changan did not arrange a banquet or wedding ceremony.
In this regard, Guan Qiaozhi was inevitably a little disappointed.
If it is a concubine, some monks will notify relatives and friends and arrange a banquet out of concern.
Lu Changan ignored her, obviously preferring to treat her as a maid instead of a concubine.
Lu Changan noticed Guan Qiaozhi's slight mood and specifically talked to her.
"Qiaozhi, you still have a chance to regret the two choices you made."
Lu Changan was willing to take in this girl out of kindness for Taoist Master Guan.
Guan Qiaozhi is indeed useful. She does housework, takes care of pets, makes talisman paper, warms the bed, etc. Lu Changan does not reject her.
But it is by no means necessary.
"Senior Brother Lu, I don't regret the decision I made back then. Even if I become a maid, Qiaozhi is willing to serve you all the time."
Guan Qiaozhi's eyes were bright and pure, and her tone was firm.
Her willingness to serve Lu Changan was the result of careful consideration.
First, Lu Changan has a network of backers, and as a senior high-level talisman master, his prospects are stable.
Secondly, Lu Changan's reliable character, appearance and temperament made her like him.
Although Lu Changan is decades older than her, this age difference is nothing in the world of immortality.
Of course, except for the above two points, Guan Qiaozhi's willingness may not be without selfish motives.
If Lu Changan is lucky enough to build a foundation, her status will rise.
Common sense told her:
"A sixty-one-year-old man is more likely to fail in foundation building."
Lu Changan has no biological heirs.
When he passes away a hundred years ago, Guan Qiaozhi will be able to legitimately inherit the rich inheritance accumulated throughout his life as a first-level high-grade talisman master.
…
After Guan Qiaozhi officially moved in, she kept Shuiyue Residence in order.
Daily housework, delicious food, pet care, and preparation of drawing materials are all impeccable.
Lu Chang'an was relieved a lot, enjoying the treatment that Daoist Guan had received back then was like having an extra little cotton-padded jacket.
He spends more time immersed in physical training, studying skills, or going out to make friends.
More than half a year later.
Shuiyueju, in the secret room.
A rising wave of mana came, bringing with it a faint spiritual pressure.
"In the sixtieth year, the ninth level of Qi refining."
Lu Changan opened his eyes, as if reflecting the vicissitudes of time and the reincarnation of the four seasons.
The mana in the body increased by 20 to 30%, and he could vaguely sense the upper limit of the Qi refining period.
As expected, it took nine years to go from the eighth level to the ninth level of Qi refining.
His age in this life has reached sixty-two, a proper sixtieth year.
As a concubine, Guan Qiaozhi, it is not too much to call him "old man".
The longevity of the Evergreen Kung makes Lu Changan look about twenty years old.
His face is like a crown jade, handsome and graceful, and he is dressed in white robe, calm and indifferent.
This kind of youth is not an appearance, but a kind of jade quality from the inside out.
Lu Changan usually had to restrain his aura, otherwise his temperament would be too outstanding.
"Refining the ninth level of Qi in your sixties, you should be able to build the foundation in your seventies."
Lu Changan had already made an estimate.
It will take many years to go from the ninth level of Qi refining to the peak of Qi refining, no less than the eighth to ninth level of Qi refining.
Theoretically, the ninth level of Qi Refining can also impact foundation building.
In order to have a deeper foundation, most monks usually choose to build their foundation at the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining.
At Lu Changan's feet, the Black Water Turtle was greedily sucking the remaining breath of the Evergreen Kung Fu.
The Xuan Shui Turtle's true cultivation level is not too far away from the middle stage of the first level.
This turtle is good at condensing his aura, has a spiritual connection with Lu Changan, and does not show his magic talent in front of anyone except him.
Guan Qiaozhi is not proficient in controlling beasts. Even if she is exposed to it frequently, she still can't tell any clues.
"Congratulations to Brother Lu for being promoted to the ninth level of Qi Refining."
Two days later, Lu Changan came out of customs and Guan Qiaozhi was waiting outside.
Guan Qiaozhi has a pure and beautiful face. She is wearing a beige skirt. She has a light body and is pretty and charming.
On the same day, Guan Qiaozhi cooked a table of spiritual delicacies as a small celebration to satisfy Lu Changan's appetite.
Coupled with his improved cultivation, Lu Changan was in a very happy mood.
Guan Qiaozhi rolled her pretty eyes, pursed her pink lips lightly, and her face suddenly turned red.
I cleared the dishes and left.
At midnight.
Lu Changan drew a few talismans and walked out of the talisman room.
"Brother Lu, I will take you to bathe."
Outside the door, a girl's voice was soft and charming.
Guan Qiaozhi's body was only wrapped in a piece of white gauze, which was almost transparent, and her exquisite and convex outline was looming.
Outside the gauze, her smooth jade-like shoulders and snow-white slender pink legs are exposed, as if they were a beautiful meal.
