Chapter 120 Foundation Building Stage

Two years, two years, the Taoist sect successfully spread its influence to Chencang County.

Controlling the grassroots and undermining the power of the upper level, the people in the officialdom can only rely on their breath.

Deep in the Qinling Mountains, there is a house beside a deep pool.

There are peach trees here, and it is the season, and the leaves are falling.

The sound of zither and harp came from the peach forest.

There were seven people in the peach forest, old and young, men and women.

Playing flute and piano, pipa and stringed instruments.

Soon, everyone stopped and talked about literature and poetry.

Suddenly, the older ones said: "There is a group of Taoists at the foot of the mountain with great momentum, seizing people's land and expanding wantonly. What do you think?"

"It is the source of chaos." A middle-aged man said.

"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang."

"Killing one person and benefiting the world is a great good." The person who said this was a middle-aged man with a refined and indifferent temperament, dressed in white, and quite romantic.

"Brother Xiang is right!" The youngest man also echoed.

"Why do you say that?" someone asked.

The middle-aged man, Xiang Youxian, explained one by one.

"Although we seized people's land, we killed those who were extremely vicious, and we did not occupy the land privately, but distributed it to the people, severely hitting the aristocratic families. This is the first good thing; opening the warehouse to release grain, curing diseases and saving people, this is the second good thing."

"Change the Five Pecks of Rice Sect and cancel the rent and rice tax, this is the third good thing."

The others did not insist, and nodded, agreeing with Xiang Youxian's words.

They have lived in seclusion in Qinling for many years, each coming from other places, not asking about the past, and living in seclusion.

They met because of their ambitions, and their three views are similar. Some of them are weak, some are strong in martial arts, and some are old ministers of the previous dynasty.

There are seven people in total, and they call themselves the Seven Immortals of Qinling.

Except for Liu Song, the youngest, the others have not interfered in worldly affairs for many years.

"But before Zhang Jiao and Sun En started the rebellion, they were also well-known all over the world. In the future, they might sweep the world and bring disaster to the people." The old man said again.

"What the boss said is right. Before Zhang Jiao started the rebellion, he was also known as a great virtuous teacher. After the rebellion, he took over several states and made people live in misery."

Xiang Youxian and Liu Song remained silent.

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

Someone wanted to smooth things over, and the old man said again:

"Old Five, Old Seven, you are already confused, go down the mountain."

"Old, what do you mean?" Some people were puzzled. Isn't it just an ordinary discussion? Why did it end up in separation?

Someone winked at Youxian and the other person, and the strange thing was that they didn't even ask for mercy.

"You two are from the Taoist school, and you are the descendants of the Xiaoyao Dao. The sect has been destroyed, and the Taoist school has become a demon. You were originally dead, but seeing the signs of the Taoist revival, you must be unwilling to give up. Go down the mountain."

The old man was very insightful. Others have seen through the world and retired. For example, the old man himself, after the country was destroyed and his family was ruined, he, as a member of the former royal family, has lived in the mountains for decades.

Xiang Youxian and Liu Song were both disciples of the Taoist school in their previous lives. Xiang Youxian even had the title of the Taoist ancestor. Faced with the destruction of the sect and the loss of the Taoist tradition, they were powerless and could only watch the Taoist school become a demon sect.

Disheartened, they came to the mountain to live in seclusion.

Xiang Youxian spoke at this time and said, "I can't be sure that the revival of the Taoist school is a good thing, but it may also be the beginning of the approach to the demon sect. This Xu Xuan... I can't see through it."

Since it was labeled as a demon sect, it has really attracted many people with bad intentions to join it, and the Taoist style has gradually become fierce.

The Five Pecks of Rice Sect was changed to Taoism, and many policies that exploited believers were abolished. It seems to be a good thing now.

But Xu Xuan has always made him a little wary.

Since he is a congenital master, why does he pretend to be a god and do some tricks to torture ghosts and summon gods? It is obvious that he has bad intentions.

"Seeing is believing. This is just a reputation. It may be a far-fetched statement made by fools. It has nothing to do with him. Judging from what he did, it is also beneficial to Taoism."

"In this case, I will bid farewell to you first!!" Xiang Youxian stood up and saluted everyone, "I will go down the mountain first to see. If Xu Xuan is not consistent in his words and deeds, I will personally take action to prevent them from coercing the people again; if it is just a rumor, Xu Xuan can be responsible for the task, then I will teach him magical skills to help revive Taoism."

"I will go down the mountain too." Liu Song stood up.

"Don't see me off!"

Wow!

The two turned into a residual shadow, rolled up a gust of wind, and disappeared in the fallen peach forest.

The seven immortals lost two, and everyone was a little sad for a while.

"There is no real seclusion in the world. Maybe you will leave this place one day." The old man smiled.

Feng County has a pair of brothers.

The elder brother is a teacher, and the younger brother is a hunter.

The two are Xiang Youxian and Liu Song.

Xiang Youxian wore a simple Confucian shirt and carried the vegetables he had just bought.

"Mr. Xiang, my aunt's daughter..."

"Aunt Liu, I don't plan to get married, you should introduce her to someone else..." Xiang Youxian smiled helplessly.

"You are already very old, and when you are old in the future..."

"Ahem, I have something else to do. I'll leave first."

Xiang Youxian fled in panic. To be honest, the innate masters are not as powerful as the old lady just now.

Even so, Xiang Youxian was not angry.

He likes this kind of city life very much. This kind of life is not the life of a few people, but the life of everyone.

In other places, some people find it difficult to live a stable and ordinary life.

In other places where Taoism is not controlled, especially in the countryside, it is normal to eat one meal and go hungry. They are pale and thin, weak and fragile. They are often seen picking up swill outside the restaurant.

The most exaggerated thing Xiang Youxian saw was that a rich man walked out of the restaurant and vomited all over the floor because he drank too much. The people who picked up swill next to him rushed forward to grab the vomit.

But there is no such situation here.

"The well-field system may really work." Xiang Youxian looked at the vegetable market. The Taoists were still judging the evil gentry and underground gangs. There was no day without killing people. "The killing is too much. I want to meet him."

What's more terrifying is that no one has any opinions, but they are very fanatical in support.

If you want to conquer the world, you must have the help of the family, otherwise you will be considered a bandit at best.

Unfortunately, Xu Xuan is elusive and has been staying in Fengming Mountain.

It is not suitable for him to reveal his identity, so that he cannot be observed.

Wutong Cave Heaven, there is a grave outside the cave, and there is a willow tree next to the grave.

This is to raise the five ghosts, and the five ghosts will take more than half a year to form.

Xu Xuan is guarding in front of the alchemy furnace, and the blazing furnace fire emits heat.

Bang! !

White smoke exploded.

A golden and round pill flew out.

Xu Xuan was quick and grabbed the foundation pill.

"Huh, the foundation pill is successful!" Xu Xuan laughed.

Two years later, Xu Xuan learned the Dragon Tiger Pill.

The Dragon Tiger Pill replaced the previous pill.

In the future, it will be used as a material to exchange with the mirror world together with the materials.

The one in front of you is the foundation pill.

The stone lotus can be divided into three parts in total. Even though Xu Xuan prepared for two years in advance, he still broke two parts and succeeded in refining the third part.

Xu Xuan said nothing and swallowed the foundation-building pill in one gulp.

Everything was ready before, only the foundation-building pill was missing.

Dark clouds lingered in the sky.

Birds and beasts seemed to sense danger and fled from the mountain.
