Chapter 12: Settlement of assets

"Alright, everyone, stop talking."

Ji Qingshan came out to interrupt and said, "Third Uncle hates people saying that his life is coming to an end, and this kid is determined to stab him in the heart."

"I discussed it with the village chief on the way back, and there are actually two paths now.

First, no matter what happens in Tongcheng, we should still stay together like we have done in the past few months and go out hunting beasts as a team on weekdays, which is better than going out to practice as independent practitioners.

Second, everyone go home, pack up your bags, and go out to try your luck. If you encounter an opportunity, you will have hope of forming a pill and becoming an infant."

When they heard that the group was going to break up, many people couldn't accept it.

"Why are we going to separate after all this? It's not that easy to be a freelance cultivator!"

"Yes, yes, it's not easy to be a casual cultivator."

This wave consists of the elderly team with no hope of advancing, represented by Uncle San.

"Now that the Ji family doesn't care about us anymore, what are we still doing here?"

"That's right, I think I should go home, pack my things, and go out to find my own destiny."

This wave is represented by young people who are unaware of the dangers of the world.

Ji Qingling stood in the crowd, looking at this and that.

As someone who has lived two lives, she could probably guess what these people were thinking.

In one’s lifetime, apart from closest relatives and friends, everyone else will consider their own interests first.

The villagers are not usually harmonious.

We will also have disputes over the distribution of supplies, such as yours is better than mine, or mine is less than yours.

"village head."

A female voice sounded in the crowd, and Ji Qingling turned around curiously.

"It's Qifang, do you have any ideas? Tell us."

It’s Aunt Fang, the only female cultivator in the foundation-building stage in the village.

“There are no spiritual trees now, so there is really no need to guard this small mountain.

Young people should go out and try their luck, but if they want to travel far away alone before they reach the late stage of Qi Refining, they may really die and come back dead.

Look at those truly big families. They won’t let their children travel far away alone before they have built a foundation.

Most of those who dare to travel around during the Qi Refining Stage are disciples from small families or independent practitioners like us who have no one to look after us.

Those who have not experienced it cannot understand the hardship involved.”

Ji Qifang looked at everyone.

"There are many cities of immortal cultivators around our mountain range. Let's choose one and move there.

In the market, it is quite convenient to trade goods. Now when we collect spiritual herbs, we sell them to shops at a low price.

Set up a small shop and sell the things the tribesmen want to sell, and also buy the elixirs they want.

Normally, if you want some quiet time, you can move around freely. If there is a monster that requires a lot of people to hunt, you can act together.

If anyone is in danger, at least there are people in the tribe who can be trusted."

The village chief forgot to let go of his hand that was pinching his beard for a moment. They called everyone over directly after returning from Tongcheng today.

The previous idea was only discussed with Ji Qingshan on the road.

Now I think Ji Qifang’s idea is a good one.

"You mean we should leave here and move the whole village?"

Ji Qifang nodded: "We don't have to look for a place too far away, there are several small towns connected to this mountain range."

"I think Qifang's idea is good. I have been to these cities and they are indeed much better than ours."

Ji Qingshan agreed to this proposal.

Another foundation-building cultivator also echoed, "I agree to relocate the entire village."

It is not easy to leave Xiaowangshan, where I have lived for several lifetimes.

Even if we have to move, where to move and how to move? There are so many things to consider.

In the next few days, Ji Linhai followed Ji Qingshan and several foundation-building cultivators to the surrounding cities.

Although they didn't say anything, they all tacitly agreed not to choose Tongcheng.

They are all over a hundred years old, how could they not know what the Ji family is thinking?

The family has already abandoned you, and you can't be so spineless as to stick with them.

Several people have chosen several places, and the most important thing for everyone now is to prepare spirit stones.

Ji Qingling saw her parents start to take things out of the storage bag one by one.

This is preparation for clearing out the family assets.

Ji Linhai took out a cloth bag and handed it to Ji Qingling.

"You two brothers and sisters each have half of this. Your brother's share has already been given to him. This is yours."

When I opened it, I saw black crystal sand.

The black crystal mine is another important source of income for the Ji family besides the red pearl tree.

This was what her grandfather earned when he was still working for the Ji family.

This black crystal ore is extremely hard and is added when forging weapons to increase their attack power.

Ji Qingling took it, but he was unsteady and almost couldn't hold it.

It’s really heavy…

"I believe Qingshan has already told you about the benefits of body training. Starting tomorrow, you will also tie it to your legs when you practice."

"ah?"

Mo Sanniang also handed over a thorn at this time, "Don't use your dagger, this thorn is a low-grade magic weapon for you."

Wow, what day is today? She is going to start upgrading her equipment.

"Thank you, mom!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Handing a sword to Ji Qingyuan, "Now that my sister has reached the first level of Qi Refining, you should behave like a brother."

The couple replaced all the things the children could use.

Those that are obsolete or not used at all are prepared to be sold.

"Huh? What is this?"

A bright yellow bead, surrounded by spiritual energy.

"This is a demon pill. When a demon beast cultivates to the third level, a demon pill will appear in its body. It is very useful for refining pills or weapons."

Ji Qingling was picking up a few demon pills on the table. A third-level demon beast was equivalent to a human cultivator in the foundation-building stage.

My parents sound so relaxed now, but they had no idea how dangerous it was facing the monster.

Only now did she realize that cultivating immortals was a high-risk profession.

Aren’t there enough geniuses over these thousands and tens of thousands of years?

But how many people can truly transcend the tribulation and become immortals? The path to immortality is treacherous.

"Is this a brush? So exquisite!" Ji Qingling saw another object.

"This is a talisman pen." Mo Sanniang took it in her hand and examined it carefully.

In addition to practicing their own spells, monks also learn techniques.

Refining equipment, refining pills, making talismans, array formations, puppetry, animal taming, etc.

At that time, she joked that she wanted to be a talisman maker in the future. A few days later, her cousin Mo Jitong gave her this talisman pen.

But as fate would have it, her father died before she could finish her studies.

From then on, he wandered alone in this world, unable to concentrate on his studies anymore.

Place the Talisman Pen in the pile of items for sale.

Ji Qingling reached out and took it, "Give me this talisman pen?"

I learned painting in my previous life, so it seems that there is some connection between drawing talismans in this life and that.

"Give it to her. This thing is expensive to buy but cheap to sell."

"Okay, I'll give it to you as a gift. It will encourage you to practice harder in the future."

"Thank you, mom!"

Cleaned up overnight.

Ji Linhai and his wife never thought that they already had so much property.

I have been going up the mountain too many times recently and haven’t been to the market to sell these items for a long time.

The two spiritual herbs that Ji Qingling got when he first went up the mountain are still there.

If I sell these together, I might be able to exchange them for a Foundation Establishment Pill for Mo Sanniang.

However, elixirs like Foundation Establishment Pills are in short supply and rarely appear on the market.

Ji Qingyuan looked at the pile of things on the table and embarrassedly took out the things from his storage bag.

"These are what I collected when I went up the mountain with Ji Ping'an. Let's give them to Dad. Sell the spirit stones and buy Foundation Establishment Pills for Mom as soon as possible."

He scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. "They are just some common spiritual herbs. I'm afraid they won't sell for much money."

Ji Qingling found it a little funny, "What's there to be embarrassed about? No matter how much, it's all for the family.

Dad, I have a few here, they are also common, buy some foundation-building pills for my mother, and I will give them to you as well."

She took out all the unused items in her storage bag that could be exchanged for spirit stones.

Mo Sanniang was somewhat touched, as she had always known that her two children were very sensible.
