Chapter 68 Adoption
Cangli Island, Qingcang Mountain Peak, in a room in the four-bedroom compound.
Ling Yuanxing sat cross-legged on a futon, his face looking extremely pale and without a trace of blood, like an old man who had been ill for a long time and was about to collapse at the slightest wind.
Besides him, Ling Yuancheng and Ling Jieran were sitting cross-legged in the room. As for Ling Yuansheng, he went into seclusion seven days ago.
"Uncle Eighth. In my current situation, even if I don't use my magic power, I can only live for more than ten years."
Ling Yuancheng said comfortingly: "Ninth brother, don't be discouraged. Just because ancestor Chuyun can't do anything, it doesn't mean that everyone can't treat your injury."
"Brother Six, stop trying to make me happy. We all know that my origin has been greatly damaged and I can't possibly get better again."
"Ninth brother..."
"Sixth brother, don't you understand? I now have the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building, but I can't use it. How is this different from a useless person?"
"Ninth brother, don't think so."
Hearing this, Ling Yuanxing slowly closed his eyes first, and then slowly opened them again.
"Eighth Uncle, Sixth Brother, I have thought about it. There cannot be no successor to the fourth house, otherwise I will not be able to see the previous owners of the fourth house after I die."
Ling Jieran said: "You were injured because of the family. The family will definitely do its best to help the fourth family."
Ling Yuanxing nodded with satisfaction, "There is also a Foundation Establishment Pill in the family. My fourth brother has raised 10,000 family merits and would like to exchange this Foundation Establishment Pill."
Ling Yuanxing had already consumed 10,000 family's good deeds when he was building the foundation, and he had been building the foundation for less than fifty years. In such a short period of time, it was impossible for him to raise 10,000 family's good deeds to exchange for the foundation-building pill.
But the current Fourth House really needs a new foundation-building monk, otherwise the Fourth House will inevitably decline.
So he mobilized all the monks in the fourth room to raise 10,000 family merits, just to exchange for a foundation-building pill and train a new foundation-building monk for the fourth room, so that the glory of the fourth room could continue.
Ling Jieran said: "All the elders agreed that Sifang should reduce his family's good deeds in redeeming this Foundation Building Pill. The Elders Council also discussed that allowing Sifang to exchange 5,000 family's good deeds for this Foundation Building Pill is considered as a favor to Sifang.
A little compensation.”
Hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Ling Yuanxing's pale face.
"Great, great."
If five thousand family good deeds can be exchanged for one foundation-building pill, then the family good deeds in his hand can be exchanged for it, and the collected family good deeds can be returned.
Ling Jieran said seriously: "Yuanxing, the Foundation Establishment Pill can be redeemed by the fourth room at half price, but have you decided who will use this Foundation Establishment Pill?"
He paused and then reminded: "Uncle Eight reminds you that now is not the time to think about family ties. You must find someone who is sure of the success of foundation building.
Once you act recklessly, act emotionally, and the person you choose fails to build the foundation, it will be very difficult for the fourth room to obtain the second foundation building pill."
Because Ling Yuanxing can no longer earn a large amount of family merit, it becomes very difficult to raise 10,000 family merit again. It will take a long time, but no one knows what will happen during this period.
Predictable things.
Once it happens, it will be even more difficult for the fourth house to stand up again.
Ling Jieran just reminded him kindly, not wanting to see the decline of the entire fourth house due to Ling Yuanxing's emotional behavior.
Hearing this, Ling Yuanxing nodded.
"Uncle Eighth is right."
"Ninth Brother, who do you plan to let use this Foundation Establishment Pill?"
"I have thought carefully and decided not to let the people in the fourth room use this Foundation Establishment Pill?"
Ling Jieran was puzzled for a moment, "Don't let the people in the fourth room use this Foundation Building Pill?"
Ling Yuancheng said immediately: "Do you want to adopt a talented child from the side line?"
Ling Yuanxing nodded, "Yes, there are indeed a few talented disciples of the Three Spiritual Roots in the fourth room, but even if they take the foundation building pill, they only have a 50-60% chance of succeeding in building the foundation.
If I wasn't injured, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now that I'm like this, their hope of success in building the foundation is still low, and I don't dare to gamble with the future of Sifang."
"There are also a few disciples with dual spiritual roots in the side line. Their success rate of foundation building after taking foundation building pills is at least 70%. I plan to select one of these people to adopt him to the fourth room and cultivate a foundation building monk first.
Stabilize the situation in the fourth room."
Ling Jieran said: "I'm afraid there will be criticism from many people in the fourth room."
"Indeed, after they knew my thoughts, they discussed it openly and secretly, but as long as I am not dead, I will have the final say in the fourth room. Once the person I choose succeeds in building the foundation, he will have the final say in the fourth room."
"Sixth brother supports you. Now it is safer to choose the disciples with twin spiritual roots to build the foundation."
…
Soon, news spread within the Cangli Ling clan that Ling Yuanxing was going to adopt a descendant of a double spiritual root. Whether it was true or not, it became a hot topic among the lower-level monks.
But smart people immediately smelled something unusual.
Why should a good person suddenly adopt a collateral descendant, and he must have two spiritual roots?
Recalling that Ling Yuanxing was seriously injured, these smart people guessed it almost immediately, and the minds of the dual spiritual root monks in the collateral department also became active.
In a certain cave at the bottom of Qingcang Mountain near the middle, the moment he heard the news, Ling Zong understood that this was his chance to leap over the dragon gate, and he happily walked back and forth in the cave.
"Based on the current situation, the fourth elder's adopted descendants with dual spiritual roots must assist him in building the foundation and take over the fourth house on his behalf.
This is an opportunity for me. I must seize it. As long as I am favored by the fourth elder, I will not only become a foundation-building monk, but also become the owner of the fourth house. I will be the first in the family to have a fixed name.
Members of the Presbyterian Church became the management of the entire family."
The huge temptation made Ling Zong become more and more excited the more he thought about it, and he decided to become the adopted one at all costs and by any means.
He was not a person who waited for opportunities. Now that he had made a decision in his heart, he immediately left his cave.
In the middle of Qingcang Mountain, Ling Zong stuffed a storage bag into a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears.
The middle-aged man put his consciousness into the storage bag and took a look, and a soft smile instantly appeared on his face.
"Brother Zong, you are too polite."
Ling Zong said with a smile: "Brother Dingyu, these Xu Lingshi are just a trivial matter. If I can be favored by the fourth elder, I will definitely thank you with a big gift."
Ling Dingyu laughed and said, "Don't worry, brother Zong, I will take you to the top of Qingcang Mountain to meet the Fourth Elder. As for whether you can be favored by the Fourth Elder, it all depends on your ability."
"Thank you, brother Dingyu."
Under normal circumstances, the collateral descendants of the Cangli Ling clan could not go up to the top of Qingcang Mountain. In order to be able to go up, Ling Zong bribed this fourth-level monk with a thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
With the leadership of this direct descendant of the family, Ling Zong reached the four-bedroom compound on the top of Qingcang Mountain without any obstacles.
"Ling Zong asks to see the fourth elder."
The people in the room were a little surprised and said, "Well, come in."
