Lingzhou, Donglingfang City.

At that time, Zhou Chun took out the treasure of the fragrant musk deer.

The face of Master Jiang opposite him changed instantly.

“It’s really the scent of fragrant musk deer!”

With an exclamation in his mouth, he immediately took the jade bottle handed over by Zhou Chun and examined it.

I saw that he just poured out a little fragrant powder and tasted it, then nodded and shouted: "It is indeed a genuine spiritual incense, with the original flavor!"

Then he quickly covered the jade bottle to prevent the fragrance from dissipating.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately smiled and said: "How about it? If you add these two spiritual incense, it should be enough to exchange for the pulse protection pill in Master Jiang's hand!"

Hearing his words, Master Jiang's eyes suddenly flashed with strange color, and he nodded repeatedly and said, "That's enough, that's enough. With one or two fragrant musk deers and these elixirs, it's enough to exchange for the pulse-protecting pills."

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Chun with bright eyes and said: "But since Daoyou Zhou can take out one or two spiritual incense, he must have more spiritual incense in his hand? I wonder if I can give Jiang some more? Jiang is willing to use it.

In exchange for other precious elixirs!"

When Zhou Chun heard this, his eyes moved and he couldn't help but said: "Oh, does Master Jiang have a pulse nourishing pill?"

When Master Jiang heard what he said, he knew that he must still have spirit incense in his hand.

He immediately said: "Jiang doesn't have the pulse nourishing pill at the moment, but if fellow Taoist Zhou is willing to exchange it for spiritual incense, Jiang can find other alchemists to exchange for this thing for fellow Taoist Zhou!"

"Then after Master Jiang has obtained this item, exchange it with Zhou!"

Zhou Chun nodded, agreeing.

"Okay, then it's settled!"

"This is the pulse protection pill that Fellow Daoist Zhou wants. Fellow Daoist, please check it out."

Master Jiang said as he took out a pill bottle from the storage bag and handed it to Zhou Chun.

Zhou Chun took the elixir bottle and opened the cork. He saw that there was only a blue-brown elixir the size of a longan inside.

The elixir fragrance and appearance are exactly the same as the records left by the senior monks of the Zhou family, so it is definitely authentic.

So he quickly capped the bottle, nodded and said: "Yes, it is indeed a pulse-protecting pill."

In this way, after both parties were sure that the things were okay, they exchanged and put away what they needed.

Then Master Jiang said: "It may take a month or two for Jiang to exchange for the Nourishing Pulse Pill. I wonder how Jiang will find two Taoist friends by then?"

Zhou Chun heard the words, pondered for a moment, and then replied in a deep voice: "Master Jiang only needs to send a message to the Wang family of Hongyao Valley, and the Wang family will naturally notify Zhou."

In this way, since he has a request from the Wang family, Master Jiang will not be angry with the Wang family because the news about the pulse protection pill was leaked to the Wang family.

Master Jiang naturally saw this, and immediately nodded and said: "Okay, Jiang understands what Taoist Fellow Zhou means."

After saying that, he smiled slightly and said: "I am very happy today. Please wait a moment, two fellow Taoists. Jiang will go and make a pot of homemade medicinal wine for these two fellow Taoists."

As he said that, he got up and went to make tea.

But at this time, Zhou Daoquan, who had been silent next to Zhou Chun, suddenly said: "We appreciate Master Jiang's kindness, but there is no need to drink wine. We have important things to attend to, so we will leave first."

Hearing his words, Zhou Chun was also moved and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, no need to drink. Master Jiang, you don't have to be so polite. We have been out for a while, so my family may be worried, so we should go back as soon as possible."

good."

"Well, since the two fellow Taoists are in a hurry to go back, Jiang will not leave two more, I will send them away."

Master Jiang said, then stood up and escorted Zhou Chun and the two out of the pharmacy.

After leaving the pharmacy like this, Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoquan headed directly outside Fangshi, and soon left Fangshi together on Zhu Yanhe.

Moreover, the two of them did not rest for a moment on the road this time. They simply let Zhu Yanhe use up his mana to fly quickly, and when he was exhausted, they would then take over the flight by themselves, and returned to Jiufeng Ridge in less than a day.

"Is there another second-level flying monster to take my place?"

In Donglingfang City, Master Jiang looked at the communication talisman in his hand with a look of contemplation in his eyes.

Then he shook his head slightly, and immediately left the drugstore, looking for friends and exchanging Pulse Nourishing Pills.

On the other side, Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoquan also breathed a sigh of relief after returning to their family safely.

Then Zhou Chun thanked Zhou Daoquan, who had accompanied him on the trip, and the two of them went back to the mountain to do their own business.

Now that the Pulse Protecting Pill is in hand, and the Pulse Nourishing Pill is also available, Zhou Chun is in a very good mood.

If everything goes well, it won't take ten or eight years, but within three to five years, he will be able to practice "Jin Ding Xuan Gong".

Of course, since he had promised the supreme elder Zhou Mingde and the clan leader Zhou Daoyi, he would still try his best to wait for the clan leader Zhou Daoyi to break through to the late stage of foundation building before starting to practice the technique.

At this time, after his many preliminary preparations, some preliminary preparations for reforming the Zhou family have been completed.

So he invited the patriarch Zhou Daoyi and the four elders of the Zhou family to the Zhongping Hall, preparing to start his performance.

In the Zhongping Hall, Zhou Daoyi and all the elders were sitting in attendance, and four mortal scribes were also seated behind the eucalyptus tables on both sides of the hall.

At this time, a scribe, after checking several account books on the table in front of him, said respectfully to Zhou Chun who was sitting on the floor: "To the deputy chief, I have checked the relevant data again and again, and confirmed that there is no error."

Any mistakes."

"Then let's get started."

Zhou Chun nodded slightly and gave instructions.

"Yes, I obey, little man."

The scribe responded, took a deep breath to suppress the excitement in his heart, glanced slightly at the senior officials of the Zhou family who were sitting in attendance, and then said respectfully: "The patriarch is on top, the elders are on top, follow the instructions of the deputy patriarch

Instructions, I will now report to you all the relevant information about the Zhou family that has been statistically verified."

"Currently, our Zhou family has a total of one hundred and fifty-seven cultivators, including one hundred and twenty-six cultivators from the Zhou family, thirty-one cultivators from relatives, ninety-six male cultivators, and sixty-one female cultivators.

"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Except for the supreme elder, clan leader, deputy clan leader, and elders, including the relatives and monks, the Zhou family has a total of eleven core clan members and thirty-two elite clan members.

There are one hundred and seven ordinary tribesmen."

"Among these tribesmen, there are thirty-eight monks in the late stage of Qi refining, eighty-six in the middle stage of Qi refining, and eight in the early stage of Qi refining. There are also eighteen clansmen who have not yet entered Taoism because of their young age."

Having said this, the transcriber paused for a moment and stopped reporting under Zhou Chun's gaze.

"Fourth Elder, you seem to have something to say."

Zhou Chun looked at the fourth elder Zhou Jiarui and said with a smile.

"I'm just feeling a little emotional!"

Zhou Jiarui sighed softly and said with emotion: "I remember when our Zhou family just laid down its foundation in Jiufeng Ridge, there were more than 140 people. Unexpectedly, more than ten years later, the number of people has only increased by a dozen.

, and many of them are married people with foreign surnames!"

Hearing his words, several other Zhou family elders couldn't help but look sentimental.

The patriarch Zhou Daoyi also said at the right time: "Actually, the number of monks in our Zhou family has increased by nearly forty in the past ten years. But the problem is that there are also two monks in our Zhou family who have disappeared and died due to various circumstances and married outside.

There are more than a dozen people. If you add this and subtract one, you will only add a dozen people to the family!"

When the second elder Zhou Chongshan heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and said: "That's still too few. I remember when I was still in Feng Kingdom, there were more than six or seven people with spiritual root qualifications that the family discovered from ordinary people every year.

, sometimes if you’re lucky, there can even be more than ten people!”

"Then what can be done!"

"Now the number of ordinary people in Jingguo is less than one-tenth of that in Fengguo. Among these tens of thousands of people, even if they give birth every year, there will only be three or four with spiritual root qualifications at most.

It’s just my child.”

"If we want to wait for these children to grow up and practice Taoism, it will take at least ten years!"

When Zhou Daoyi said this, his face was also full of wry smile.

None of them understands the importance of the number of monks to a family.

Although a family needs high-end power like Zifu monks to take charge, the number of Qi Refining Stage monks at the bottom level is also indispensable.

Once the number of monks in the Qi Refining Stage decreases, it will not only affect the number of monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but will also have a major impact on the daily operations of the family.

After all, many family chores are undertaken by monks in the Qi Refining Stage.

And just when these senior officials of the Zhou family were sighing because the family's population could not increase, Zhou Chun gave them another merciless blow.

I saw Zhou Chun open his mouth and say: "There is actually another important issue now. The family has the largest number of monks of the same generation. Among them, the number of monks who are over eighty years old is close to twenty, and there are also several of their Taoist priests.

My husband is also close to this age."

"In the next twenty or thirty years, even if we do not count the number of monks who have left home or died due to other reasons, the death of these people will have a considerable impact on the family's population!"

Sure enough, after hearing what he said, the expressions of several elders darkened again, and their faces became a little more sad.

The third elder, Zhou Daoquan, had a strange look in his eyes. He immediately looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Since you, Zhengchun, have mentioned these things today, do you have some clever solution?"

After hearing this, several other people also looked at Zhou Chun, with expectations hidden in their eyes.

Facing the ardent expectations of the elders, Zhou Chun smiled lightly and said: "Junior does have some ideas, but we should wait until later. Elders, please listen to other things first!"
