Chapter 109 Seeking attachment
"In a few years, I will have to go to the county to pay the tribute, and I will also report the news of my Li family's Qi training. It is best to save a hundred spirit stones by then, so that I can be sure to invite the formation master to arrange the formation."
Li Xuanfeng had been in seclusion again a few days ago, and the peak of fetal breath was not far away from practicing Qi. Li Tongya handed the "Golden Mang Zhengfeng Jue" and Jinshi Ruiqi into his hands for Li Xuanfeng to break through and practice Qi.
The Ji family's "Jin Mang Zheng Feng Jue" is also a third-grade skill. It is no worse than "Jiang He Yi Qi Jue", but more suitable for Li Xuanfeng's use of bow skills. Li Tongya gave it to him to break through, hoping that Li Xuanfeng could go there on behalf of the Li family the next time he paid the tribute. Crown Cloud Peak.
After all, although Li Tongya made a breakthrough in Qi training, he made breakthroughs one after another when the Chonghai Long Whale was inserted into his body, reaching the fifth level of Qi training. His speed in training was truly astonishing. The last time he went to pay tribute, he was still at the peak of fetal breath, which would inevitably arouse the concern of interested people. Notice.
Li Tongya is cautious and naturally does not want to take such a risk. Although Li Xuanfeng's Qi training at the age of fifteen is equally astonishing, it would take Li Tongya slowly spending the first thirty years to achieve a breakthrough in Qi training in five years. At the fifth level of Qi, even a fool can see that there is definitely something wrong.
"Has Father Zhong gone into seclusion?"
Li Xuanxuan asked, and then Li Xiewen said:
"Uncle Clan has been in seclusion for several days. He said he wanted to consolidate his cultivation."
After arranging the affairs at home for the past few days, Li Xuanxuan was about to get up when a clan soldier hurriedly walked up from outside the door and said respectfully:
"Reporting to the head of the family, people have been sent from Lichuankou. A group of Shanyue came from the west, bringing with them a large number of carts, cargo and slaves. They said that Dongshanyue came to seek surrender."
"Ask for surrender?!"
Li Xuanxuan was stunned, almost laughed out loud, and said coldly:
"We and Shanyue belong to two major forces. No matter how many villages he asks for help, we dare not accept him. What does this mean? It seems that Mu Jiaoman is very scared and can't sit still anymore."
Jianixi died, and within a year the entire Shanyue was torn apart and exploded into several small forces, with refugees and weapons all over the place.
Li Xuanxuan's eyes and ears in the west heard the news. Mujiaoman integrated six or seven villages adjacent to Li's family, known as Shiwanshanyue, also known as Dongshanyue.
Mu Jiaoman was the only one who practiced Qi in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and Li Tongya was now far stronger than him. Li Tongya and Li Xuanxuan were so jealous that they wanted to cross the border several times to blackmail Mu Jiaoman.
After all, Wushan never cares about the mountains below. As long as the Li family doesn't annex the territory openly, most of them will not care about it.
It's just that the territory of Shanyue is now in chaos. Li Tongya is cautious and has delayed going west to meet Mu Jiaoman for a while. He doesn't want to risk his life on the temperament of the people in Wushan. Unexpectedly, Mu Jiaoman himself sent someone to visit.
"The more the mountains say they are willing to marry, do business, and offer sacrifices, they only want one thing."
"What do you want?"
Li Xuanxuan gave a low glance, already expecting it in his heart.
"I beg the Li family to practice their Qi and not be able to reach the limit."
Li Xuanxuan laughed, let out the depression in his chest, and said mockingly:
"What a arrogant person. I have been frightened by Jianixi's threats for so many years, and now it's Shan's turn to be more and more afraid of my family."

"Then this is what the tribe of strangers is like?"
Muyalu took a large cart of animal skins and grains behind him and cautiously took a few steps forward. The clan soldiers from the previous year gathered over and stared at them warily with spears and knives.
"We are here to surrender!"
The Shanyue tribesmen beside him stepped forward and shouted, but the Li family soldiers did not look at him, their eyes full of vigilance.
Mu Yalu sighed softly, and instead of feeling sad about leaving home, his heart was filled with a kind of deep envy.
"These strangers are well-fed and well-fed, and their expressions are stable. They wear clothes that even the nobles of Shanyue cannot wear. The swords in their hands are exquisite and the armor is complete. It is really unbelievable."
"Now locusts are attacking the fifteen villages, and people are starving to death in Da Jueting. It's really like the sky and the earth."
The clan soldiers quickly separated, and a shrewd-looking young man wearing leather armor came forward. Mu Yalu quickly imitated a stranger and held his hands, saying softly:
"You are the head of the Li family?"
When Mu Yalu left home, he had worked hard. He washed off the patterns on his body, learned all the etiquette of strangers, and received several scoldings. Only then did he learn to speak softly and walk more cautiously. .
"I don't dare. I am in charge of Li Xiewen, the Li family clan. Please come forward."
Li Xiewen came forward with Mu Yalu, and naturally some clan soldiers came forward to collect the weapons and ensure that she had no cultivation before letting her go to Li Xuanxuan.
Li Xuanxuan touched his chin and glanced at Mu Yalu, with a sense of wild beauty, and said quietly:
"Why did Dongshan Yue send people here?"
Mu Ya Lu quickly lowered his head and said:
"I am Mu Yalu, the sister of Mu Jiaoman, and I have met the head of the Li family. We are willing to do business with the nobles, make offerings, and be in-law. I only ask that the Li family does not cross the border and kill people."
Mu Ya Lu's words caused an uproar among the surrounding tribesmen. Shan Yue had just entered the country the year before to plunder, but this year he sent property to please him. The contrast between before and after was surprising.
"I have been looking for the Dongren that Jia Nixi plundered for a long time and sent them all back. Just behind the convoy, we sincerely seek peace! If the head of the family agrees and is willing to marry with the Li family for generations, I, Mu Yalu, will be the in-laws The beginning.”
Mu Yalu called the Li family people Dongren, and did not use the slightly ironic term stranger, which shows that he was fully prepared.
Presenting a wooden box in his hand, with a white fruit in it, Mu Yalu said respectfully:
"The king of my family offers this spiritual fruit to express his apology for marching eastward. I hope that the two families can put an end to their past feud! This spiritual fruit is also very helpful for Qi training. I hope that the master of the family will accept it."
Li Xuanxuan glanced at her, and someone below stepped forward to take the fruit. Li Xuanxuan said in a deep voice:
"Please ask the envoy to wait a moment, we still need to discuss it."
Seeing Mu Yalu nodding and retreating, Li Xuanxuan whispered in Li Xiewen's ear:
"Send someone to get the person down first."
After saying that, he turned around and led the people towards Lijing Mountain.
The clan soldiers below stepped forward to untie the frame and the stranger who was tied behind. Suddenly, some members of the Shanyue tribe yelled and cursed:
"Your king hasn't agreed yet!"
Mu Yalu frowned slightly and wanted to stop him, but Shan Yue had already been knocked to the ground, his face was covered in blood and three of his teeth were missing.
"you!"
Mu Yalu quickly stopped everyone and shook his head sadly, knowing that no matter whether he succeeded or not this time, he would not be able to take back the property and the slaves.

Li Tongya had only been in seclusion for a few days when there was a knock on the door of the cave. He frowned slightly and said softly:
"Come in."
Li Xuanxuan pushed the door open and said respectfully:
"Father Zhong, Shanyue sent people to ask for peace."
After saying these words, Li Tongya listened carefully and said in a deep voice:
"Mu Jiaoman is just a thing that can be understood with a sword now. This person is lustful and reckless. He can be conservative but not enterprising. He is definitely not as good as Jia Nixi. It would be nice to watch the west for us."
"If we really get rid of him, Shiwanshanyue will collapse overnight. Although we can keep them in chaos for a few years, who knows what kind of vicious people will be raised. It's better to keep this guy alive."
Li Xuanxuan nodded in agreement and said softly:
"Shanyue has no skills, and the craftsmanship and casting are extremely rough. As long as Shanyue is open to trade, it will be equivalent to us creating an extra hundred thousand tenant farmers out of thin air."
"Furthermore, Father Zhong's talismans can also be resold at a high price. There is no need to send them to the market to compete. When my family has the inheritance of alchemy and weapon refining, I can use the entrance of Dongshanyue to transform hundreds of thousands of Shanyue into me like the Qingchi Sect. A dumping ground for others.”
Li Tongya touched his chin and said in a deep voice:
"That's right. If you take Mu Yalu as your concubine, you can just send any girl from the small sect to marry her. Remember to give your instructions and choose the person you send there carefully."
"yes."
Li Xuanxuan lowered his head and agreed, and was about to retreat when he saw Li Tongya turning his head and saying:
"How many sons does Mu Jiaoman have?"
Li Xuanxuan thought for a few breaths and said in a deep voice:
"It's not clear. My nephew immediately sent someone to investigate and report to Father Zhong."
Li Tongya nodded, waved his hand for him to step back, lowered his head and thought for a few moments, then dipped his pen in ink and began to draw the talisman.
