"Ding"
"You have purchased a batch of first-level spiritual objects for the clan, and obtained 60 family contribution points"
Then.
The family contribution value on the panel climbed to 480.
Seeing the rising contribution value.
Fu Changsheng's mouth curled up slightly.
That night he did not leave the room again, but sat cross-legged in meditation. The next morning, his consumed true essence was refilled again, and the spiritual energy in the Tianhao room was no less than practicing in the second-level lower-grade spiritual spring well.
So.
The rent here costs a lot of spiritual stones per night.
The last time they met in Taiyun Valley, he was late, so the first thing he did after waking up was to come out of the room and be the first to go to the first floor.
Unlike yesterday.
Only one night passed.
The attitude of the shopkeeper Nangong suddenly changed 180 degrees, and he treated him with the courtesy of an elder.
But he didn't know whether it was because he killed Qiu Taifeng last night that the shopkeeper Nangong got wind of it, or whether there was a foundation-building cultivator in the inn who reminded him that he was not the peak Qi training level that the other party saw on the surface.
However.
He immediately set off for the Zhenshi Division on East Street.
Fu Changsheng didn't care much.
He immediately booked a private room and ordered five breakfasts. After Shangguan Feng and the other four came downstairs, they ate breakfast and went to East Street together.
Outside the protective formation of the Zhenshi Division on East Street.
The guards who guarded the formation were guards wearing dynasty costumes. Although they were only at the peak of Qi training level, they were still neither humble nor arrogant to Shangguan Feng and others. They checked their personal tokens one by one and waited for the reply from inside before letting them go.
The Zhenshi Division is a three-entry courtyard.
They were going to register in the first entrance, the Affairs Hall.
When Yang, the steward of the affairs hall, heard that they came for the newly opened Yunshan County fiefdom, his eyes fell on Fu Changsheng, who was less than 30 years old, and he was somewhat surprised, but he didn't say much, but bowed his hands:
"Please wait a moment, Deputy Hall Master Liu is in charge of this matter, I have to go to the backyard to ask for instructions first."
"Thank you, steward Yang."
Fu Changsheng handed a brocade bag to the other party without leaving a trace.
Staff Yang put it in his sleeve, squeezed it, and then a smile appeared on his face, and he said one more sentence:
"Our master has the habit of meditating in the morning. It will take about half an hour after breakfast. Everyone, please go to the side hall and sit and wait."
Said.
Staff Yang personally sent them to the side hall, and then told the maid to serve tea and snacks, and then turned to the backyard.
After about half an hour, steward Yang came back: "Everyone has been waiting for a long time, please follow me."
Through the front hall.
To the smaller but more formal reception room in the second entrance.
In the hall.
A man with a big belly sat at the head.
Most likely it was the Deputy Hall Master Liu mentioned by Manager Yang. Fu Changsheng looked up and found that the other party's aura was consistent with Shangguan Feng. He thought that he was probably at the peak of foundation building.
After everyone came forward to greet.
Deputy Hall Master Liu pointed to the seat beside and asked everyone to sit down. He didn't say anything and went straight to the point:
"Since you three families are going to guarantee the Fu family, I think the joint liability you have to bear is already very clear, but I will still make a statement as usual."
"Please listen carefully, all of you."
"Once the fiefdom of Yunshan County is lost, whether it is caused by monsters or invasion by southern barbarians, you Shangguan family, Liang family, and Lin family must retake the fiefdom, and you must also pay double compensation for the losses caused on the fiefdom. Do you understand?"
Although he had been prepared.
But Lin Tianfu still felt a lot of pressure, because Yunshan County not only borders the Shiwan Mountains, but is also not far from the Yunteng tribe in the East Wilderness.
But since he had agreed to be a guarantor,
There was no reason to regret at this moment.
He immediately stood up and bowed with Shangguan Feng:
"Master, we understand clearly."
"Well, in that case, then sign this guarantor commitment document."
He said.
He waved his sleeves.
But a scroll flashed out, and as he entered a spell into the scroll, thick black smoke came out of the scroll. The black smoke condensed into lines of text in the air, which were exactly what Deputy Hall Master Liu said before. Below the document, the signature column was still blank.
Shangguan Feng pinched his right hand, and several spells fell on the document. Then his name appeared in the signature. Liang Laozu and Lin Tianfu followed closely, and then the three of them each dripped a drop of blood into the scroll. With a hum, the scroll boiled, and actually differentiated into a fierce ghost with bared teeth. With a grim smile, it opened its mouth and swallowed the blood of the three people.
Deputy Hall Master Liu pinched his hand fiercely.
The black light of the scroll faded away, and it turned into a document floating in the air. Manager Yang took it with both hands and put it on the tray beside him.
Deputy Hall Master Liu then set his eyes on Fu Changsheng:
"According to the information submitted by the Shangguan family, your merit value has reached the standard. However, if you want to be officially recognized as a quasi-ninth-grade family, you still have to pay a deposit of 20,000 spirit stones."
"Don't worry."
"This deposit is only temporarily entrusted to us for safekeeping. When you are officially promoted to a ninth-grade family, the deposit will be returned to you intact."
"Of course."
"According to the agreement, if your fiefdom is lost, then this deposit will be regarded as compensation."
Fu Changsheng was stunned for a moment.
The deposit.
Shangguan Feng did not mention it to him.
Even Shangguan Feng was obviously unaware of it. The Zhenshi Division had obviously spread the news, but it did not go into detail about every step.
Shangguan Feng quickly sent a message:
"Changsheng, how many spirit stones do you have on hand? If you are not enough, I will make up for it."
"Uncle Feng, I have enough spiritual stones."
If there hadn't been a surprise attack by the Qiu Taifeng brothers last night.
He really couldn't get the 20,000 spirit stones together.
Fu Changsheng immediately patted the storage bag, and in a flash of light, boxes floated out one by one. When the boxes were opened, they revealed neatly numbered low-grade spiritual stones.
Deputy Palace Master Liu glanced at the box with his consciousness and narrowed his eyes slightly, because the box contained twenty-one thousand spiritual stones, which was obviously one thousand more.
His face softened a little now.
Then he waved his sleeves.
A jade slip floated towards Fu Changsheng:
"What is written above is the rights and obligations you have to perform when you are promoted to a quasi-ninth-grade family. Please read it carefully. If you have any questions, you can ask them before you are granted the title."
Fu Changsheng took the jade slip and placed it between his eyebrows.
A stream of information flows into the sea of consciousness.
But I saw dozens of benefits and obligations listed above, and read them one by one.
Among them, there were three that impressed him the most.
First, no tribute was required for the first three years of the fiefdom.
Second, the Zhenshisi will transport 30,000 mortals to their fiefdom in three years, which is both a reward and a burden.
Thirdly, if the fiefdom encounters a crisis that cannot be solved, it can seek help from the Zhenshi Division. The first aid is free, but the follow-up will be based on the specific situation.
also.
At the end of the jade slip, the criteria for promotion to a ninth-grade family are also marked.
It was the same as what he had learned before, one hundred court merit points, one second-level spiritual vein, two foundation builders, and three hundred thousand clan members.
It seems to be to motivate him to get promoted as soon as possible.
He also mentioned a few additional words about the welfare benefits of the official ninth-grade family.
That is the aristocratic families that have been canonized by the imperial court. Whether they are the major sects in the far west or all parts of northern Xinjiang, their identities are recognized and they can enjoy certain courtesy.
Fu Changsheng took the jade slip from his eyebrows.
Deputy Palace Master Liu asked again if he had any doubts. After seeing that Fu Changsheng had no questions, his expression became much more solemn, and he bowed his hands in the direction of the imperial capital.
Then he waved his sleeves.
A box with dragon patterns on a yellow background is suspended in the air.
Accompanied by one after another magic spells.
The restrictions in the box were lifted one by one.
Immediately afterwards.
"roar"
It seemed like a faint dragon roar came from the box.
A ninth-grade jade seal floated slowly towards Fu Changsheng, and Deputy Palace Master Liu's face suddenly became solemn: "Clan Chief Fu, put a drop of blood essence into the jade seal."
Fu Changsheng looked at the jade seal suspended in front of him.
from which.
He could sense a faint dragon power.
Give me the jade seal!
This is the highlight of being sealed.
On the way here.
Shangguan Feng mentioned it to him.
The big reason why the monks of the Zhou Dynasty fought hard to be canonized as a noble family by the court is that the moment they get the jade seal, the luck of the entire family will be blessed.
Luck is this thing.
Extremely mysterious.
Even people at their level can't figure it out.
but.
The canonized family is so enthusiastic, and it is obviously proved by countless predecessors that it is indeed useful.
Fu Changsheng took a deep breath with some excitement.
He waved his sword.
A drop of blood from the middle finger fell on the ninth grade jade seal.
Buzz! !
The moment when the essence and blood dripped.
A bright golden color lit up.
Immediately afterwards.
The runes on the blank and flawless jade seal base surged, and the word "Fu" suddenly appeared. The moment the font was completed, a mysterious and mysterious aura suddenly fell on him.
This feeling.
Fu Changsheng didn't know how to describe it, but it was so wonderful.
Deputy Palace Master Liu said:
"The ninth-grade jade seal is a third-level spiritual weapon. Chief Fu, please keep it carefully. As for the luck condensed on the jade seal, after you are officially promoted to the ninth grade, you can freely distribute it to the clan members you recognize."
Third level spiritual weapon! Fu Changsheng's eyes lit up.
At that moment, he cupped his hands and said:
"Thank you for your advice, sir."
Said.
A box was handed over without leaving any trace in his sleeve.
There was no seal in the box. Deputy Palace Master Liu glanced at it, raised his eyebrows, and said through a message:
"Clan Chief Fu, only by truly being promoted to a ninth-grade family can you enjoy the real resources of Dazhou. Different family levels will have different access to resources. Patriarch Fu, please work hard!"
The end.
He confessed:
"Remember, please be sure to arrive at the Yunshan County fiefdom on time in three years. Someone will naturally take over with you then."
Finished.
Deputy Palace Master Liu served tea to see off the guests.
Come out of Zhenshi Division.
Fu Changsheng sensed the existence of the ninth-grade jade seal, and felt a surge of joy.
Through ups and downs.
The Fu family was finally canonized as a noble family.
Fulfilled the long-cherished wish of our ancestors.
Excited and excited, but also full of infinite longing for the future.
but.
The Fu family is today thanks to Uncle Feng and Miss Hongyu. Otherwise, the Fu family would have to take more detours.
He then raised his hands and said to the four of them:
"Uncle Feng, Fellow Daoist Lin, Fellow Daoist Liang, I will be the host today. Let's go to the Zuiyun Tower for a drink."
Lin Tianfu and his wife handed over their hands and said:
"Clan Chief Fu, we and I are in a hurry to return to Tianlong County. Next time, we will have a good drink next time."
Elder Liang also stroked his beard and said:
"I still have private matters to attend to, I'll talk about it when I have the chance."
In a blink of an eye.
The three of them were busy with their own things.
Only Fu Changsheng and Shangguan Feng were left.
Shangguan Feng said:
"Changsheng, there is a trade fair for foundation-building monks tomorrow. Do you want to attend it? It's just a good time to see if there are suitable materials to refine your natal magic weapon, and you can also exchange some cultivation experiences with the people in the channel."
"Thank you Uncle Feng for your support."
Shangguan Feng didn't finish his words.
Fu Changsheng responded quickly.
The intelligence mentioned that the Human Emperor Banner would appear at the trade fair. He was determined to get this thing. He was just thinking about how to mention it, how could he not want to go.
The two agreed to meet early tomorrow morning.
Shangguan Feng went to meet old friends, while Fu Changsheng went to West Street.
Last night, due to the attack by Qiu Taifeng brothers, he was unable to buy the strange seeds. This time, he couldn't miss it again.
Pick up the pace.
After entering West Street.
The vendors setting up stalls on both sides kept shouting.
Fu Changsheng's consciousness swept away.
From a distance, I saw an old Taoist in the middle area. The old Taoist's voice was like a bell:
"Come, come, come, don't miss it when you pass by. These are the treasures that I risked my life to bring out from the Bloody Forbidden Land. I will sell them as I please today. Come, come, come and take a look."
Although the old man shouted hard.
But no monk stopped at his stall.
Fu Changsheng stood in front of the old woman who was selling mulberry fruits. The old woman smiled and said:
"Fellow Taoist, this is a specialty of our Qianyun Village. Mulberry fruit has mild medicinal properties. Even the elderly and children among secular mortals can eat it. Ten mulberry fruits are only sold for nine spiritual stones. If you buy more, I will give it to you. As a gift of mulberry fruit seedlings, how many do you want, fellow Taoist?"
Mulberry fruit can only grow in places with abundant fire-attribute spiritual energy.
Usually grows in volcanic magma.
Even if seedlings are given as gifts, ordinary people can't keep them alive.
and.
This is a first-level low-grade spiritual fruit. It is only helpful for monks to introduce Qi into the body. Unless there are juniors in the family, they generally will not buy it, so the old woman's stall is full of mulberry fruits.
After paying a deposit of more than 20,000 yuan.
Fu Changsheng didn't have many spiritual stones in his hand anymore, and he had to save some flowers at the moment, so he just took a look. After changing several stalls, he finally arrived in front of the old Taoist in the Bloody Forbidden Land.
The old Taoist had noticed Fu Changsheng a long time ago.
Seeing Fu Changsheng's unfamiliar face, he immediately enthusiastically introduced the scrap metal he had brought out from the Bloody Forbidden Land. Of course, most of it was not brought out from the Forbidden Land.
Fu Changsheng glanced at a golden mask on the left. The mask was badly rusted, but when he held it in his hand, he could immediately feel the aura of simplicity and vicissitudes of life.
The old Taoist saw that Fu Changsheng had chosen the genuine product with just one move, and immediately said:
"Fellow Taoist, you really have a good eye. I dropped this dragon-shaped mask and picked it up in a mysterious cave in the Bloody Forbidden Land. At that time, there was a corpse sitting on one side. I don't know how many years the corpse has gone through, but there is no trace of it at all. There are signs of weathering. From this point of view, this dragon-shaped mask must be extraordinary."
"Fellow Taoist, today I see that you have a connection with this mask. If you give me the money to sell it to enter the Bloody Forbidden Land, you can take it."
The old man looked sincere.
but.
The pay for a monk in the late stage of Qi training is not low.
Fu Changsheng didn't see the use of the mask, so he immediately put it back on the stall, his eyes falling on the three dusty seeds.
these seeds.
Half white, half black.
And there are faint rune marks inside.
His consciousness swept away.
But he didn't feel any breath of life.
But the intelligence mentioned that one of the three seeds was alive.
Immediately he said:
"How do you sell this kind of stuff?"
Many items placed on the stall.
The dragon-shaped masks and monster seeds were taken out from the Bloody Forbidden Land by a small number. Seeing Fu Changsheng's accuracy, the old Taoist murmured in his heart:
"Did this young man also go into the Bloody Forbidden Land?"
It seems that today I probably met an expert.
Whether it was a dragon-shaped mask or a monster seed, he had tried it countless times, but he couldn't see anything special about it. When he got it to a store to sell it, no store was willing to take it.
The other monks who didn't know what was going on were even less interested.
So after putting it in his stall for several years, I finally met someone who asked about the price. After thinking about it, he whispered:
"If fellow Taoist really want it, this kind of seed and dragon-shaped mask together with five hundred spirit stones, this is the lowest price I have given. These things were all taken out from the Bloody Forbidden Land in my narrow escape. One less spirit stone would be too much." Not for sale."
"Four hundred and thirty-two"
Fu Changsheng returned a price.
There are bits and pieces.
This made the old man a little confused, and he hesitated for a moment. Could it be that these were all the spiritual stones in the other party's bag.
otherwise.
Most people will open a round number.
He immediately gritted his teeth and said:
"make a deal!"
After the money and goods are settled.
at this time.
The panel in the consciousness sea space trembled violently:
"Is it finally here?!"
Was canonized as a quasi-ninth-grade family.
The system must have indicated something.
He was short of money at this time and had no intention of shopping anymore, so he walked quickly to the inn.
Return to the inn and close the door.
Fu Changsheng immediately set up a new protective array in his room.
After the formation is activated.
Fu Changsheng kept staring at the system panel as he thought.
He is full of expectations for how much contribution the system will reward for his promotion to a quasi-ninth-grade family.
I waited for about half a cup of tea.
finally.
The panel stopped shaking.
A familiar mechanical voice suddenly sounded in my mind:
"bite"
"You have successfully promoted the Fu family to a quasi-ninth-grade family, and obtained three thousand family contribution points!"
Then.
The family contribution value on the panel suddenly rose from four hundred and eighty to three thousand four hundred and eighty.
Obviously.
After breaking through to the foundation-building stage.
The upper limit of the contribution value is no longer one thousand.
Looking at the three thousand four hundred contribution points on the panel.
Fu Changsheng's eyes lit up.
This is the most contribution points he has ever received!
Moreover.
This is the contribution points obtained by being promoted to a quasi-ninth-grade family.
After being promoted to the ninth grade, wouldn't it be more, five thousand, or even six thousand!
After the excitement.
He began to think about how to use this contribution value.
If it is used to double the lottery, it can be carried out more than ten times.
If it is used in the [Practice Room], it is equivalent to having more than ten years of life than others for cultivation.
Thinking that he will go to the exchange meeting of foundation-building cultivators tomorrow, since he has to trade items, if he goes empty-handed, he will definitely not be able to get the Human Emperor Banner.
"Let's double the draw a few times and see."
It would be best if we can exchange it for Cangming Stone and other items.
If not.
We can also take it to the trade fair to exchange for other items.
