Chapter 410 Let’s Go Together
As soon as the two of them entered the cave, they saw a jade box in the hand of Song Qingming, who was sitting at the wooden table, and his face suddenly became more joyful.
"Meet the clan leader!"
"No need to be polite, Xintang. After discussing with the elders of the family a few days ago, I decided to support you in building your foundation first. You can take this foundation-building pill first."
Looking at the foundation-building pill in his hand, which many Qi-refining cultivators dream of, Song Xintang's joy on his face slowly calmed down after getting this thing.
Since he started practicing Taoism, he has made many contributions to the family with all his heart and effort. There were several times when he encountered danger during the mission and almost lost his life at the foot of the mountain. Now that he can get the support of the family to build his foundation, he can be regarded as rewarded for his hard work.
"The family gave you the foundation-building pill because we have high hopes for you. We hope you can put aside all distractions and build your foundation successfully, so that you can repay the family's support for you. Go back and prepare yourself, adjust your cultivation state, and come to my cave to build your foundation in seclusion in half a year!"
Song Xintang nodded immediately, carefully put away the foundation-building pill, and bowed again before leaving Song Qingming's cave.
After Song Xintang left, Song Qingming turned his gaze to Song Changxiong again and said softly: "Uncle Thirteen, are you here to see me for something else?"
Hearing Song Qingming's question, Song Changxiong stepped forward and said: "Before you left the mountain last time, you asked me to pay more attention to the whereabouts of that senior. This time I came to talk to you about this matter.
Since you left the mountain and went to Tuoyun Mountain, Senior He has not gone anywhere. She has been playing around in Funiushan with Qingyu. Sometimes she will come out alone, but there is nothing strange. However, just yesterday, I heard from the people below that Senior He went down the mountain alone to Liujia Village in Mugu Town and stayed there for a long time before leaving.
A foundation-building cultivator with such a successful cultivation like her would actually be so interested in those mortals below. After hearing this, I also felt a little strange, so I came to talk to you."
"Why is that mortal village called Liujia Village?" Song Qingming asked with some surprise.
The Song family has been around for more than 200 years. Although the mortal villages below occasionally accept refugees from all over the place, there are all kinds of surnames, but more than 70% of the surnames are Song clan members. Logically, there should not be such a village with other surnames.
"There is this village. When Mugu Town was first established, many mortals from the Liu family of Jingyuan Mountain were moved there. About 20 years ago, because there were more and more mortals in Mugu Town, some mortals from the Liu family built a small village around it, with only two or three hundred people living in it, called Liujia Village.
Over the years, the family has been managing mortals casually. If they don't make trouble, we won't deliberately embarrass these mortals with other surnames."
"Okay! I know about this. Uncle Thirteen, you can go back and rest first. If you find anything unusual, remember to come to me in time."
The spirit vein of Funiu Mountain is only the second-level lower grade. In order to upgrade to the second-level middle grade, in addition to setting up the spirit gathering array, you also need to prepare 20,000 spirit stones. After refining, you can improve the spiritual energy of the entire spirit mountain.
Although it would take several years to gather all the spirit stones, Song Qingming had already started to prepare to set up a second-level medium-grade spirit gathering array after returning to Funiu Mountain. However, this high-level spirit gathering array also requires a lot of time to set up. After trying for several months and failing several times in succession, Song Qingming finally successfully set up the array.
Next, you will know to add spirit stones to the spirit gathering array at regular intervals. When the array has smelted enough spirit stones, the spirit veins of Funiu Mountain will begin to advance.
After refining the spirit gathering array, Song Qingming just had some free time and was ready to go out for a walk. Unexpectedly, he ran into He Mengxin who came to find him as soon as he went out.
"Clan leader Song, I am very grateful for your intrusion in the clan for many days. I will return to the East China Sea tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye to you."
Hearing that He Mengxin was leaving Funiu Mountain, Song Qingming did not show any surprise on his face. He smiled and bowed his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist He, please don't be polite. It is rare for people like us to have a good relationship. What's more, my younger sister Qingyu will leave with you. Please take care of me on the way."
When Song Qingming just returned to Funiu Mountain a few months ago, Song Qingyu had already told him that she wanted to travel to the East China Sea with He Mengxin. After all, this was also her wish. Although Song Qingming knew that traveling outside was very dangerous, he couldn't stop her. In addition, now that He Mengxin was traveling with him, he felt much more relieved.
"The scenery of Funiu Mountain is pleasant. I have to leave tomorrow but I am reluctant to leave. I want to go down the mountain again. I wonder if Chief Song has time to walk with me today."
Song Qingming was stunned when he heard He Mengxin's invitation. It took him a while to react and nodded politely.
"It is an honor to be invited by fellow Taoist. Fairy, please come!"
Under the guidance of He Mengxin, the two walked and talked from the top of Funiu Mountain through the clouds, from daily cultivation to various strange scenes in the world of immortal cultivation.
After hearing He Mengxin's endless chatter and describing many scenes he had never seen before, Song Qingming was indeed somewhat enlightened. Although he had been to many places during his years of cultivation, and had left Weiguo to support the front line of Luguo, he was still a little behind He Mengxin, who had traveled around for many years.
As time passed quickly, the two of them had unknowingly arrived outside Liujia Village at the foot of the mountain.
After walking here, He Mengxin suddenly stopped and looked at the children playing outside the village. He said calmly: "Chief Song, I have been here before. I don't know why there are so many mortals with the surname Liu in your Song family. Do you have any explanation?"
Since building his foundation, Song Qingming rarely came into contact with mortals at the foot of the mountain. Even his own home in Mujiao Town, he had not been back for a long time, so he was naturally not very familiar with these mortal villages at the foot of the mountain.
Even though he had been standing outside this small village for a long time, Song Qingming suddenly realized where he was when he heard He Mengxin asking about Liujia Village.
"They originally came from another immortal cultivation family in Qinghe County. Many years ago, they offended the upper sect for some reason, and Xiaoyao Sect later exiled all the cultivators of the Liu family to other places.
These mortals who stayed behind would have found it difficult to survive without the protection of the cultivators. At that time, under the arrangement of the sect cultivators, several nearby families took in some of them, and my Song family happened to be one of them at that time."
