Chapter 173 No way
Inside the Fallen Heart Pill Pavilion.
Tu Shanjun also finally figured out the family situation of the Hou family.
Even many things that the Hou family themselves may not know clearly have been read through.
The ancestors of the Hou family had foundation-building monks, but unfortunately, their descendants failed to live up to their expectations and even had no spiritual roots.
Without spiritual roots, it would cost a lot to become a Qi Practitioner, and it would be discontinued later on.
This is something that many monks often encounter.
Spiritual roots are a very strange thing. If both parents have spiritual roots, they may not necessarily give birth to children with spiritual roots. If parents do not have spiritual roots, their offspring may also have rare spiritual roots.
Otherwise, those monk families would not accept secular children broadly and change their names to their own.
Each monk family operates a certain basic base of mortals. After a certain period of time, they test the spiritual roots on a large scale, and then accept the mortal children who have spiritual roots.
The situation of the Hou family is not bad at all, and they are still a bit old-fashioned. Not to mention the two tile-roofed houses in Yangcheng, they can at least send people to Qingyun Temple.
If there is someone who can live up to his expectations, he will definitely be able to get ahead in the future.
Tushanjun couldn't help them much. He could only return the talisman and keep some resources.
If it's too much, they won't be able to protect it, and if it's too little, it won't be much of a help.
In short, you have to rely on yourself to practice, and he can only help.
Tu Shanjun stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I'll have a detailed discussion with my Taoist friends after I finish my work."
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Li. Rong'er, you go with Fellow Daoist Li and the others, and be more considerate."
Zi Shaoqing is not in a hurry now. Firstly, the master has not come out of seclusion, and the pill cannot be shown to the master. Furthermore, these two have already arrived in Yangcheng, and it will only take a few days to finish the matter.
Rong'er arranged a unicorn car.
Yangcheng has a forbidden air formation, and the foundation-building monks have to walk obediently, so the advanced beast carts are used for transportation within the city.
There are many beasts of burden coming and going in the city, and they come in all shapes and sizes.
It was already setting sun when we arrived at the gate of Hou's house. Its glow was scattered on the city wall, and only shadows could be seen here.
"Young Daoist Ding and Miss Rong'er don't need to go down, I'll go on my own." Tu Shanjun gestured slightly with his hands raised.
Since he was returning something, there was no need to bring so many people with him. One of his foundation-building monks was enough. If there were too many people, it would scare the Hou family.
"Brother Li is too polite. Miss Rong'er and I will stay here and wait." Ding Xie quickly took over the conversation. He knew that Tu Shanjun definitely didn't want too many people to go, so it was better for him and everyone from Yuanxin Dan Pavilion to stay. .
Anyway, it's just such a two-step thing, and the mana consumption hardly increases.
Tushanjun pushed open the small fence door.
Go to the wooden gate.
He raised his hand and knocked.
"Who is it?"
A woman's shout came from inside the house, followed by footsteps, coming to the door and opening it.
I didn't feel pressure just now, I just felt that someone was coming to the door.
When he opened the door and took a look, the man in black robe in front of him had such powerful aura.
Wang Yu didn't know this black-robed senior at all, and he didn't dare to look around. He saw that he was a great monk. Their family couldn't afford to offend him, so he stuttered even as he spoke: "Senior, who are you looking for? "
"I am an old friend of Hou Boxu, and this is the Hou family?"
"The head of the family is your eldest brother's old friend."
"Senior, please come in."
Tu Shanjun nodded slightly, stepped across the threshold and walked in.
There are only two tile-roofed houses and multiple small patios at most, this is the Hou family.
"Senior, you..."
"I, Hou..."
After sitting down, Tu Shanjun looked at the middle-aged man who was somewhat similar to Hou Boxu, and couldn't help but sigh, he is finally here.
Hou Zhongying was already nervous.
After being blocked for a month, I lived in fear every day, fearing that my eldest brother would offend someone he shouldn't offend. Now I finally saw someone coming to my door.
Judging from the flash of inspiration, this person is clearly a foundation-building monk.
He was just a third-level Qi practitioner, and he couldn't even speak clearly when he was nervous.
Tu Shanjun said: "My name is Li Qingfeng, I am an old friend of Hou Boxu, and I came here on his request."
"Because we don't have an address, we decided to ask Yangcheng to help us find it." Tu Shanjun explained in an easy way to prevent them from worrying anymore.
The two couples looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.
They were afraid that something big had happened.
Now that I really see it, I feel relieved.
It was also a big deal for the Foundation Establishment monks to find them, so at least they weren't as scared and anxious as before.
"I wonder if Hou Jingyan is here? I want to talk to him."
Tu Shanjun looked around and saw that there was no Hou Jingyan in the family of three. It stands to reason that at this time, the mine should be off work.
"Senior, the well is in the mine, it may be later."
Hou Zhongying asked respectfully: "Senior, I wonder how my eldest brother is doing."
"Hou Boxu died fourteen years ago and asked me to send his relics back so that I could see his son."
Upon hearing the news of her eldest brother's death, Hou Zhongying's chestnut pupils shrank, the corners of her eyes suddenly drooped, and a glint flashed in her eyes.
His parents died early, and he was taken care of by his brother and sister-in-law.
Although she already knew the truth, Hou Zhongying suddenly felt uncomfortable when she found out the exact news.
The eldest brother is like a father, and Hou Boxu is really like a father to him.
The disappearance was still uncertain. Now that the news of his death was brought back, Hou Zhongying suddenly felt the corners of his eyes moist, and tears flowed down his wrinkles.
Wang Yu said: "Senior, just leave the relic to us. When Jing Yan comes back, we will give it to him."
"Your time is valuable."
Tushanjun shook his head and said nothing more.
He had to hand the things over to Hou Boxu's son in person, and he had to see the child.
Even if the person standing here was the child's second uncle, he couldn't take out the things.
While they were talking, a thin, dark, middle-aged man ran in and greeted anxiously: "Hou Er, your Jingyan and my Fuda mines have been crushed."
"What?!"
Hou Zhongying was so shocked that she couldn't care less about her sadness at this time.
The child is fine, how could he be crushed by the mine?
He had also visited that mine, and nothing serious had ever happened. That was why he dared to let Jing Yan do it.
After hearing this, Tushanjun looked solemn, and his solemn green face became more solemn.
"Oh, come with me to save people. If it's too late, the child will die." Qi Zhao, a short man, grabbed Hou Zhongying.
Only then did he see Tushanjun in black robes, and the powerful aura frightened him to the point of being stunned.
Even the feet that were about to run stood still, with their bodies stiff and their mouths wide open.
Then he let go of his hand and looked at Hou Zhongying: "If you have anything to do, I'll go first."
Tu Shanjun lifted up the short and thin Qi Zhao, and grabbed Hou Zhongying directly with the other hand. He took three steps and two steps at a time. In an instant, he had already stepped out of the door and headed straight for the Unicorn Carriage.
"The boss." Tu Shanjun had already left when Wang Yu exclaimed.
She was just about to chase after him, but then she thought that nothing would happen if the foundation-building monk came forward, so she stopped.
Congcong also had to be taken care of, and she really couldn't leave.
"what 's wrong?"
Ding Xie saw that Tu Shanjun had gone to deliver something, but why did he bring back two juniors who practiced Qi in the blink of an eye?
"Where is the mine?" Tu Shanjun asked.
Hou Zhongying didn't know what to say, and Qi Zhao was so frightened that he couldn't speak.
Rong'er immediately understood that something was wrong.
Since he was asking about the mine, it must be the mine where Hou Jingyan was located, so he quickly said: "Senior, I know."
Rong'er did his part, drove the driver out, sat on the seat and started to drive the carriage.
The unicorn beast galloped along the city's streets and quickly rushed to the city gate.
After leaving the city gate, there was no need to release the flying boat. Tu Shanjun used his escape technique and the black mist enveloped the two monks in the Qi training period and flew in the direction.
Ding Xie hurriedly followed.
The farther Tushanjun is from him, the more mana he needs.
Rong'er has achieved great perfection in Qi training and can only fly with a sword but cannot escape.
Fortunately, the mine is not far from Yangcheng, and we can reach it in the blink of an eye.
Qi Zhao felt that he was completely confused. The foundation-building monk took them to the mine with flying escape. It seemed that the other party still wanted to care about this matter.
In the blink of an eye, there was a great monk who was building the foundation, and a female monk who was practicing the Great Perfection of Qi.
Qi Zhao turned to look at Hou Zhongying and asked in disbelief: "Hou Er, do you know him?"
Hou Zhongying also didn't expect that the great monk who established the foundation would have such a bad temper. He would fly away with them as soon as he learned the news, but it would be unfair to say that he knew him.
He was anxious for more than a month before waiting for the arrival of the great monk.
"Oh, I should have known better than to let Jing Yan go to the mines."
"It's about this." Hou Zhongying felt so regretful that her intestines were almost green. If Jing Yan had stayed at home, this matter would not have happened.
In case the big monk blames.
Now is not the time to think about the consequences, hurry up and rescue the child.
"Where's the steward?"
"Which mining line did they go down?"
Tu Shanjun took two drops of blood from the arms of Hou Zhongying and Qi Zhao.
The smell of two drops of blood is integrated into the seal with one turn of the hand seal.
This is a little trick he evolved from Yuanling Sect's blood curse decomposition, but he didn't expect to use it today.
After finding the right direction, Tu Shanjun flew into the mine.
…
Hou Jingyan opened his eyes and was about to move his body, but found that he couldn't move at all.
Large pieces of ore melted down in random directions, pinning them under the veins, causing the mine to collapse and sink. There was no hope of digging it out on their own.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, there was a wave just now that pushed the ore above their heads to the side, supporting it into a triangle shape, leaving at least a certain amount of space.
Otherwise, just from the top of their heads, the two of them would have died here.
Hou Jingyan looked at his arm. The misalignment was okay, but his ankle was injured.
"Fuda? Are you okay?"
Qifuda started crying: "Ahem, cough, Jing Yan, I'm sorry, if I hadn't moved that thing, nothing would have happened."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Wealth can be found in danger. We are just many people pursuing wealth, but we are not very lucky."
Hou Jingyan looked for the pickaxe.
This space is too small. If they continue to stay, not to mention blood loss, they may suffocate due to the blockade of the surrounding ore.
"Are we going to die?"
"Will not."
"of course not."
A cool voice sounded.
Hou Jingyan and Fuda looked forward with wide eyes.
Mana sweeps.
A tall figure appeared in front of the two people.
He stretched out his arms and pulled the two of them out of the collapsed dark hole.
