Chapter 8 Song Qingyu
After Song Qingming waited for five days, his ninth uncle Song Changxin finally ended his retreat. When he heard Song Qingming said that he wanted to return to his family, Song Changxin happily agreed to him and brought a little girl in his teens with him. When I arrived in front of him, I asked him to take it back to Funiu Mountain with me.
"Qingming, when you go back this time, you can take Xiaoyu back to Funiu Mountain." Song Changxin pointed at the little girl in front of Song Qingming and said to him.
“Take her back to the mountain.”
Song Qingming has been coming to Lingyuan Mountain for half a year. He often takes out some pastries made from Lingyuan and shares them with the children here. This name is also often seen. Knowing that she was the daughter of a miner in the village, why did Uncle Six take her to Funiu Mountain himself?
Song Qingming looked at the little girl with a puzzled face, and it took him a moment to realize what he was doing.
"Uncle Six, could it be that she has detected her spiritual roots?"
Song Changxin nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, I accidentally discovered her when I was testing the school-age children here last month. Having spiritual roots in the body is really a joy for our Song family. In all the years I have been in Lingyuan Mountain, this is the first time I have detected a child with spiritual roots.
It’s just me. There is no Ouija board here, so we can't know her specific spiritual root attributes. I originally wanted to wait until the family sends someone to transport the black iron ore next month, and then pick her up by the way. You happen to be going back, so just take her back by the way. Test the spiritual root attributes as soon as possible so that she can start practicing as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Song Qingming nodded and said, "Uncle Jiu, don't worry, my nephew understands."
"Be careful on the road. You are the hope of the family's future. I have a mid-level spiritual talisman to give to you for self-defense. If you encounter monsters along the way, remember not to begrudge these external things. Use them when they are needed. Only for the safety of the two of you. The first one." Song Changxin handed Song Qingming a golden talisman and warned him carefully.
Song Qingming took the talisman and took a look at it. It was a relatively useful defensive talisman among the mid-level talismans, and then carefully put it into the storage bag.
With Xiao Yu, Song Qingming could not rush on as fast as when he came. He found a big basket in the village and carried the little girl on his back to say goodbye to her family. It took the two of them almost two hours to say goodbye. Slowly rush back to Funiu Mountain.
The little girl has lived in Lingyuan Mountain all year round and has never seen the outside world. The beautiful scenery along the way, the strange-shaped mountains and boulders, soon made her forget the sadness of leaving home.
After seeing the majestic Funiu Mountain, Xiao Yu’s two delicate eyes suddenly blinked and couldn’t help but ask: "Uncle Immortal, is this where you immortals live on the mountain?"< br>
Song Qingming couldn't help but smile when he heard Xiao Yu's words
"Yes, after you learn to practice, you will also become an immortal and can live here like us"
After the little girl heard that she also Being able to become an immortal made the young and ignorant Song Qingming as excited as when he first arrived at Funiu Mountain, and he began to boldly ask various questions about immortals.
"Uncle, if you become an immortal, will you be able to change anything you want?"
"Of course"
"Is it true that immortals can eat meat if they want to?"
"Everything is available"
While speaking, Song Qingming and Xiaoyu had already arrived at the conference hall on the top of the mountain. The person on duty here happened to be Song Changfeng, the second elder whom Song Qingming was most familiar with.
There are four elders in the Song family. These four people are also the four most powerful people in the whole family except the patriarch. The eldest elder Song Gubai is in charge of guiding the family to pass on martial arts. He has a hot temper and is usually quite aggressive towards children like Song Qingming. He is strict and the person Song Qingming fears the most in the entire family.
Second Elder Song Changfeng, the only elder in the Song family generation, although he is the youngest among the four elders, his cultivation level is the highest except for the clan leader. He is also a three-spirit with outstanding talents. Brother Gen has reached the eighth level of Qi refining. He is also very fair in dealing with people in the clan and is deeply loved by the clan. After becoming an elder, he has been in charge of family law enforcement and is also the elder Song Qingming is most familiar with.
The third elder Song Gulan and the fourth elder Song Gucai are both nearly a hundred years old and have relatively gentle personalities. Although their cultivation is not high and they are only at the sixth level of Qi Refining, both of them have dedicated their lives to the family for hundreds of years.
According to family regulations, those who have not reached the late stage of Qi Refining are not qualified to serve as elders. Excluding the clan leader, there are only three monks left in the late stage of Qi Refining. Ninth Uncle Song Changxin is only focused on cultivation. I no longer want to be the elder of the family and cannot manage it with just two elders, so I made an exception and let these two senior elders with more experience in managing the family industry take the position of elder.
The third elder is the only high-level spiritual planter in the family, and has always been responsible for the family's spiritual fields, medicine gardens and other industries. The fourth elder is in charge of the family's general affairs and is also the steward of the family's financial resources.
“Elder.”
Song Qingming briefly explained Xiao Yu’s situation to Song Changfeng.
After Song Changfeng heard this, he also seemed very happy. It was rare for the family to have new blood added to it.
"The Ouija board is now in the hands of the clan leader. You two wait a moment. I will ask him to come out and test her spiritual roots."
After Song Changfeng finished speaking, he immediately sent a transmission note to the clan leader. After a while, an old man with snow-white beard and hair, and an immortal spirit came to the meeting hall. It was Song Gushan, the clan leader of the Song family.
Song Gushan glanced at Xiao Yu meaningfully, and then slowly said: "This is the little girl Chang Xin mentioned." "Report to the patriarch, it is her. Uncle Jiu said not yet." To determine the specific attributes of her spiritual root, please ask the clan leader to test it again.”
Song Gufeng took out a magic weapon like a circular array disk. It was the "Spirit Plate", the treasure of the Song family. After slowly injecting a spiritual energy, the circular array disk slowly flew in front of Xiao Yu with dazzling purple light. .
"Hurry up and put your left hand on the soul board." Song Changfeng on the side quickly reminded Xiaoyu who was still in a daze.
After hearing this, the little girl was still slightly stunned. She stretched out her left hand nervously toward the soul-finding disk, and three spiritual lights of different colors slowly flew out from the disk and twisted and rotated in the air.
"This, turns out to be the Three Spiritual Roots. God has blessed our Song family, and another good seedling with the Three Spiritual Roots has emerged." Song Changfeng shouted excitedly.
Clan leader Song Gushan’s face was also filled with joy, “They are the three spiritual roots of gold, wood, and water. Unfortunately, it’s a pity that I don’t have the fire spiritual root to practice the Red Flame Art with me. Water-based exercises are more suitable for female cultivators. Let her practice the family's Xuan Shui Kung Fu first."
Song Qingming, who had been watching, was a little embarrassed. Why did he bring back any one with good qualifications for the three spiritual roots, but he himself was just a fake spiritual root.
I don’t know if he is lucky or not.
"What's your name?" Song Changfeng lowered his head and asked the little girl again
"Song Yu"
After hearing this, the patriarch on the side said directly, "Then From now on, let’s call him Song Qingyu. Remember, you will be the tenth monk in the Qing generation of the Song family.”
The Song family currently only has three character generations, Gu, Chang, and Qing, with one character generation being set up almost every thirty years.
There are only four people of the ancient generation alive. The youngest of the four elders, Song Gucai, is over ninety years old this year and will almost wither in another twenty years.
The eldest generation is the current backbone of the family. There are ten people in total, and one person joined the Xiaoyao Sect in the early years. The one with the highest cultivation level is the second elder Song Changfeng. He is almost the next patriarch of the Song family. Default candidate.
Song Qingming’s Qing generation is considered the new generation of monks in the Song family. Including Song Qingyu, there are exactly ten people. Most of them are only around 20 years old.
Perhaps it was because her new name was similar to her original name. When the little girl heard her new name, she just nodded lightly without any objection.
Seeing this, the clan leader put away the spirit board, took out a dark red family tree, wrote the three characters "Song Qingyu" on it, and then asked her to leave a drop of blood on her name.
This genealogy records the names of all the monks in the Song family over the past two hundred years, arranged in detail according to seniority and age. The names with a faint aura on them represent the monks who are still alive in the Song family, and those The name has become dark and dull, which means that the monk has passed away or died.
After leaving the meeting hall, Song Qingming immediately came to the family's Golden Pavilion. He took out the monster materials he had obtained a few days ago, placed them in front of Fourth Elder Song Gucai, explained his purpose of coming, and replaced them with a mid-level magic weapon.
Song Gucai carefully looked at the materials on the table and asked with some surprise: "Is this the pig tooth of the middle-level monster Iron Mouth Pig?"
"I met this monster a few days ago. The beast crashed into the formation, and I took a closer look and found that it was covered in wounds. It looked like it had fled to Lingyuan Mountain after failing in a fight with other monsters, and was lucky enough to be killed.”
"Qing Ming, you are very lucky this time. You can actually hunt the middle-level monsters by yourself. With these materials and five spiritual stones, you can replace a middle-level magic weapon. As for this pigskin, I will help you." Give it to the great elder to refine a robe. What kind of robe can you refine? It depends on your luck.”
Song Qingming knew that the fourth elder had always acted fairly, which is why the family felt confident in letting him take charge of the gold storage building where the clan members exchanged their merits. He nodded and agreed without saying anything. , took out five spiritual stones and handed them to Song Gucai.
After Song Gucai put away the materials and spirit stones, he took Song Qingming to the second floor of the Hidden Gold Pavilion, took out several of the existing middle-grade magical instruments in the clan and placed them in front of Song Qingming.
After a brief introduction, Song Qingming thought for a moment and chose one of the red flying swords.
“This flying sword is called the Fierce Sun Sword. It can also emit a stream of spiritual fire to attack the enemy. Its operation is relatively simple compared to other magical weapons. You have broken through the middle stage of Qi refining not long ago, so it is more suitable to use this magical weapon. ." Song Gucai added another sentence after seeing him choose this sword.
The main reason for choosing this sword is that Song Qingming is better at using the spiritual power of earth and fire attributes. There is only one defensive magic weapon with earth attributes, which is not what he wants at the moment. The most suitable one for him is This is a fire attribute flying sword.
Returning to the cave where he had been away for a long time on Funiu Mountain, Song Qingming took out the Fierce Sun Sword he had just obtained and injected his own spiritual energy into it to practice it. It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that he walked out of the cave. At this time, he was able to completely control the flying sword.
Song Qingming sacrificed the Fierce Sun Sword outside the cave, and used his spiritual power to control the flying sword to strike at a huge stone not far away. After a loud noise, the stone that was originally the size of a table was split into two. Half a year later, seeing the results, Song Qingming recalled the flying sword with satisfaction. After shrinking to a size of about an inch, Song Qingming's aura-yang sword disappeared into the storage bag on Song Qingming's waist.
“Now that I have a mid-level magic weapon, I can fight with that mid-level monster even without relying on formations.”
