The Kunlun Mountains were razed to the ground overnight, causing a top-down change in the entire cultivation world of Nanyang County.
There are a total of eight noble families in Nanyang County.
The fifth-rank Ouyang family, the sixth-rank Yang family, the seventh-rank Xu family, as well as two eighth-rank and three ninth-rank families. There are a total of twenty-five villages under their jurisdiction. Among them, excluding the Ouyang family, the sixth-rank Yang family has the largest area. , there are eight townships under the rule.
The Yang family is famous for its business.
Their ancestor Yang Jiguang was just a guest elder of the Ouyang family.
Later, he was favored by the 1,100th patriarch of the Ouyang family and was specially recruited as his son-in-law. Yang Jiguang was the best at maneuvering. He used the power of the Ouyang family to open up a trade route to northern Xinjiang and made a lot of contributions to the Ouyang family. And I don’t know what means he used to convince the clan leader to let him set up another branch.
In two hundred years, the Yang family was promoted to a seventh-grade family in one fell swoop.
Based on his foundation and through several generations of hard work, the descendants of the Yang family were promoted from the seventh grade to the sixth grade.
There are rumors in Nanyang County that if the most powerful family in Nanyang County is undoubtedly the Ouyang family, but when it comes to wealth and resources, there is no doubt that it must be the Yang family. If it weren’t for the fact that no member of the Yang family has been promoted to a fake infant monk, as early as the 90s He was promoted to a fifth-grade family before.
However.
Although the Yang family is engaged in business, they have shown great respect to the Ouyang family over the years. They have never neglected their old master who promoted them because of their own improved status. The relationship between the two families has always been harmonious.
The current wife of the current patriarch of the Yang family is Ouyang Yulu, the direct sister of the former patriarch Ouyang Jun, Ouyang Jun.
at this time.
The Yang family meeting hall located in Gaoling Mountain no longer had the joy of the past, but instead was filled with a kind of stormy silence.
The Yang family meeting hall was built on the top of Gaoling Mountain, covering an area of more than 80 acres.
The entire meeting hall is forged from the glittering golden gold stone. The golden stone is a third-level high-grade metallic ore, which is most suitable for forging third-level magic weapons. The Yang family’s meeting hall is made of refined gold stone. If all the refined stones were used to refine weapons, more than 20,000 third-level magic weapons could be made and sold to the market for nearly a million spiritual stones!
It can be seen from this.
How wealthy the Yang family is in business!
If this is enough to explain anything, let’s take a look at the nine Fengming chairs in the conference hall. They are forged from the fourth-order Fengming tree. Fengming trees are rare. This set of chairs would cost at least millions. Spiritual stone!
However.
At this moment, the nine people sitting on the Fengming Chair were all sitting on pins and needles.
The seven Jindan elders at the bottom glanced at Patriarch Yang and the patriarch's wife Ouyang Yulu at the top from time to time. Each of them hesitated to speak, but Ouyang Yulu drank the Borealis tea in his hand and drank it in the blink of an eye. After drinking a cup of tea, he still felt thirsty, so he repeatedly ordered his personal maid Hong Zhao to make a new pot of tea.
Bodhisattva tea is a fourth-level spiritual tea.
This tea is a luxury product, because its only function is its unique taste and rare sweet and refreshing fragrance. Naturally, ordinary monks will not be willing to spend a lot of money to satisfy their appetite!
When the personal maid retreated, she glanced vaguely at Patriarch Yang who was sitting upright with a big belly. Patriarch Yang kept turning the beads in his hand. He originally had a festive face. At this time, Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, he grinned and said with a smile:
"Dear elders"
"There is no need to discuss this matter. Although our surname is Yang, half of our blood belongs to the Ouyang family. Moreover, if our ancestors had not received the full support of the Ouyang family, we would not be where we are today."
"Now that the Ouyang family is in trouble, we will naturally help if we can."
"Okay, okay, let's all disperse. I have made up my mind on this matter, and the elders don't need to persuade me anymore!"
As soon as these words came out.
Ouyang Yulu, who was sitting next to her, suddenly showed a look of gratitude. To be honest, when she married as the eldest daughter of the Ouyang family, she was unwilling to do so, but she couldn't resist her father. Over the past few years, she has lived a carefree life. If she wants anything, she only needs to ask, and her husband will definitely try his best to buy it for her.
Therefore.
She has accepted this identity!
At first.
More than a dozen nephews and nephews from the clan came to her door, which really made her panic. After learning the cause and effect, she was even more desperate. She really couldn't accept that her natal family collapsed like this. After she recovered, she also Six gods have no master.
She married into the Yang family after building her foundation at the age of thirty.
She never stepped out of Gaoling Mountain and lived the life of a rich wife who took care of her husband and raised her children. She did not need to take care of the household affairs in the family. She did not need to ask for the cultivation resources she needed. Her husband would have prepared them for her in advance. Therefore, Since she got married, she has never had to fight with anyone, and she does not need to worry about any matters at home, big or small.
suddenly.
Don't tell her that her family is ruined, what can she do? !
This was a big deal. Fortunately, her husband helped her deal with it. Although the clan elders were talking about driving out the clan members who had taken refuge, there were even rumors that they wanted to depose her, the clan leader's wife, and drive them out. Gaoling Mountain. She was terrified for several days.
Fortunately.
My husband is still as reliable as ever and always considers her.
"Elders, please leave. Don't worry, everyone. Even if the Fu family is domineering, they can't bully us. We have not offended the Fu family. Let's leave. It's the new year and things are busy. Everyone is going. Finish the things at hand so that the tribe can have a good year."
The seven elders naturally refused.
The Yang family and the Ouyang family have broken bones and connected tendons. The Fu family will definitely not let them go easily. It is too late for them to cut off their relationship with the Ouyang family. It is difficult to take in the Ouyang people who escaped from the Kunlun Mountains.
"Clan Chief, this matter is related to the life and death of our clan. It is not a child's play. My wife has been married to our Yang family for hundreds of years. In any case, she can be regarded as our Yang family, but those few... can never be kept, and we still have You must quickly prepare a rich gift and deliver it to Qilin County in person, pray for the Fu family’s forgiveness, and make a promise to pay tribute every year from now on..."
The great elder hasn't finished speaking yet.
Patriarch Yang took the panic-stricken Ouyang Yulu and strode away.
Seeing the two of them walking away, the great elder stamped his feet repeatedly: "The patriarch must have a certain degree of love for his wife. I won't talk about it on weekdays. What time has it been now? I have always been a shrewd person, but... ."
The great elder shook his head in disappointment.
At the same time, he was worried and sent more troops to find out if the Fu family had any signs of going to Gaoling Mountain.
But he said.
Patriarch Yang held Ouyang Yulu's hand all the way back to their main courtyard. The main courtyard was different from the splendor of the meeting hall. Ouyang Yulu liked the quiet atmosphere, so Patriarch Yang personally planted fourth-order Cang Ling bamboos in the courtyard. The main courtyard is located in the woods, open the courtyard door.
But I saw that the seven or eight acres wide yard was full of people.
"Father, Mother"
Once inside.
But they saw 38 men and women with more than 300 men and women behind them to pay their respects to Patriarch Yang and Ouyang Yulu. Since Ouyang Yulu married into the Yang family, she has been pregnant continuously, and the youngest child is only four years old. Her descendants, descendants, and descendants, in the past three hundred years, her bloodline has added up to countless people, and there are nearly 400 people with spiritual roots alone.
"Chan'er, Jiu'er..."
"Why are you all running back?"
On weekdays.
It is extremely difficult for the whole family to gather together, so it can only be gathered for the great ancestor worship ceremony every three years. Ouyang Yulu held his youngest son in his arms and saw the family members in the yard. The panic in Shi Shi's heart disappeared a lot, and she looked at her husband-in-law with infinite tenderness.
Apparently.
This was specially arranged for her by her husband.
For a while.
She was so grateful and happy that even if she died right now, she would be able to rest in peace.
"Madam, it's rare for our children and grandchildren to gather together. I specially asked the chef to make a table of Eighteen Arhats. It should be ready to serve now. Guys, please take your seats. We will all have a good time today!"
The Eighteen Arhats are made from the best parts of eighteen rare fourth-level spirit beasts. Although the Yang family is wealthy, this meal will cost at least nearly one million spirit stones, which is not an extravagance.
Even Ouyang Yulu, who didn't care about general affairs, felt that it was too expensive.
However,
Thinking that this was my husband's wish, I opened my mouth, but did not try to persuade her. Anyway, the spirit stone was gone, and my husband could still earn more. It was rare for grandson to get together here, so it was time to celebrate, and it could be regarded as making up for her these days. It’s scary to come!
Speaking of which.
Only then did she remember those nephews from her natal family who had defected to them. She lowered her voice and said:
"Ms. sir, please prepare a copy of these eighteen arhats for Ao'er and the others. Firstly, it can help them catch the wind and wash away their dust. Secondly, it can calm their fears and make them feel at ease. With you as my uncle, I will be able to protect them."
"Okay, I will listen to you, madam." Patriarch Yang's eyes were infinitely gentle.
Wine, meat and rare delicacies were served one after another.
Soon.
The whole Cang Lingzhu is full of laughter and joy from the Yang family.
Patriarch Yang picked up Yihu Level 4 Wanhua Brewing and poured a glass for Ouyang Yulu himself: "Madam, it is my honor to have you by my side on this journey. I dedicate this glass of wine to you!"
Finished.
Patriarch Yang raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
It was a bit urgent to drink all of a sudden, and Patriarch Yang kept coughing one after another.
Ouyang Yulu was happy and distressed at the same time: "This Wanhua Brewing is strong wine. Why did you drink it in such a hurry? How could I not understand your thoughts?"
The children and grandchildren below saw their parents so loving.
Instant booing.
Ouyang Yulu blushed and glared at Patriarch Yang angrily.
Patriarch Yang, perhaps because he was drunk, went to every table in person and clinked glasses with each of his children and grandchildren one by one. This made all his children and grandchildren feel flattered. Their qualifications were not very good, and the ones with the highest level of cultivation were just fake elixirs. For this reason, they have been worried about their father taking concubines, but over the years, their parents have been so loving, not to mention concubines, not even concubines, which makes them relax.
Walked around.
Patriarch Yang returned to the main table.
Ouyang Yulu quickly stepped forward to support the slightly drunk Patriarch Yang, but Patriarch Yang's eyes fell on the four-year-old Yao'er sitting next to Ouyang Yulu.
When the child saw his father looking at him, he quickly dropped the wind claw in his hand and smiled innocently: "Daddy, do you want to clink glasses with me?!"
The next moment.
Everyone at the bottom table burst out laughing.
Patriarch Yang also laughed loudly, smiling, with tears welling up in the corners of his eyes. Ouyang Yulu on the side had never seen his husband like this before, and was a little frightened for a moment, with an inexplicable feeling that he couldn't stop crawling. With his heart in mind, he saw that his husband had already poured wine for Yao'er, so he quickly stepped forward to stop him:
"My son is still young and can't drink."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The most important thing is that the family is in good order. Besides...he won't have this chance if he doesn't drink." The next sentence was almost gibberish, and Ouyang Yulu couldn't hear it clearly. , I was distracted for a moment, and the movement I originally wanted to stop stopped.
"Ahem, cough, cough." After the wine was drunk, Yao'er choked until his face turned red, but he still said innocently, "Daddy, the wine is so delicious. I will clink glasses with daddy in the future."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, from now on... we will clink glasses together again."
After three rounds of drinking.
Some of the children and grandchildren wanted to get up and say goodbye because they had general affairs to attend to.
But.
Patriarch Yang drunkenly stopped at the courtyard gate:
"No one is allowed to leave today. I have asked Hong Zhao to prepare the guest room. Everyone will sleep overnight and leave tomorrow."
Finished.
But he saw Patriarch Yang using his magic weapon.
I saw lines of spiritual light rising in Cang Ling Bamboo, and then a formation light curtain fell down.
This made Ouyang Yulu frown, patted Patriarch Yang gently or hard, and lowered his voice and said, "Ms. sir, what are you causing trouble here?"
"Madam, since the day we got engaged, I have listened to you in everything. You will listen to me today, just once, just once in this life." Patriarch Yang was confused, and Ouyang Yulu felt that he was really drunk. Drunk, he shook his head, and finally nodded lovingly, and persuaded his children and grandchildren one by one.
The formation is closed.
They couldn't get out even if they wanted to.
Therefore.
One by one, they thought about going back to their rooms and refining the good things they had eaten.
all of a sudden.
The entire Cang Ling Bamboo suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of the rustling Cang Ling Bamboo leaves.
After Ouyang Yulu finished everything, he returned to the main room. Hong Zhao was about to step forward to change her clothes. Patriarch Yang, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly stood up. Ouyang Yulu was startled by his sudden movement. Yang The clan leader smiled, waved his hand, and told Hong Zhao to step back.
"Lu'er, let me undress you."
The sound of "Lu'er" made Ouyang Yulu tremble. Ever since her husband called her by her given name once on their wedding night, it was either the child's mother or his wife. The sound of "Lu'er" made her look confused.
at the same time.
The uneasiness in my heart became even stronger.
She held her husband's hand with her backhand, her face full of panic:
"Ms. sir, are you hiding something from me?"
"Luer, you are the only woman I have ever loved in my life, how could I lie to you, fool!" Patriarch Yang scratched the bridge of Ouyang Yulu's nose like a newlywed, and then hugged Ouyang Yulu Take it into bed.
