In half a day, the Chang family had not completely taken over the Luo family. Chang Sheng killed Lin Haoming, a half-step innate master. The news that the Chang family had two innate masters and also killed two innate masters of the Zhensheng sect had spread throughout the city. , for a time, the entire Fengdu City and even several counties on the verge of Fengdu City were all shocked!
As the sky gradually darkened, the Chang family accepted some of the Luo family's servants and nurse returned to the Chang family with several large carts of money. Also returning to the Chang family with them was Luo Junba! He lost his fortune in a bet, so naturally he had to He came to the Chang family to be a slave. He was not an innate master and had no capital to resist.
Chang Sheng also led a group of people to confiscate one-third of the Lin family's property and returned home.
In the evening, the lights were brightly lit in the Chang family hall, and Chang Ganyi sat in the front seat and listened to his subordinates' reports.
"Patriarch, we found a total of 43.6 million taels of silver in banknotes from the Luo family. In addition, we also found a gambling house in the Luo family, three neighborhoods, seven large properties, and The prices of medicinal materials, pills, antiques and other items cannot be calculated at the moment. In the Lin family, we took away eleven million taels of silver."
"Very good." Chang Ganyi nodded heavily. The two families had a total of more than 50 million taels of silver, which was enough for the Chang family to expand rapidly.
In the room of the Chang family, the elders' courtyard, four elders were sitting cross-legged together, all with sad expressions on their faces.
"Now that Chang Ganyi has taken over the Luo family, his reputation has become even higher. Let's not try to seize Chang Ganyi's position as clan leader!" The second elder sighed, with an obvious tremor in his voice, and said: "Just I'm afraid that Chang Ganyi will turn against us now. He and Fang Xianyun are two innate masters, and we..."
"No, he won't deal with us." The great elder said with certainty: "As long as we no longer take the initiative to provoke Chang Ganyi, he will take into account that we are his elders and the opinions of our clansmen, so he will not Deal with us."
"The Great Elder is right." The Third Elder nodded in agreement, and then said with great reluctance: "However, he has never let us intervene in the matter of taking over the Luo family this time. I think it will be difficult for us to follow suit in the future. There are benefits to be gained from this. Taking over a whole family that is as famous as the Chang family, how many benefits can be gained from this! Hey..."
The third elder let out a long sigh. Several elders were speechless. Only the elder elder seemed to be deciding something. The expression on his face kept changing. Finally, as if he had decided something, he suddenly lowered his voice and said: " In fact, it is not impossible. If we voluntarily give up some power in exchange for some benefits, I think Chang Ganyi will agree to us in order to be able to let go in the future. You must know that the power of our Presbyterian Church is still not small."
"First Elder, are you crazy?" As soon as the First Elder finished speaking, the Second Elder immediately stood up and retorted loudly: "Giving up certain rights will mean that we will have fewer opportunities to benefit from the family in the future! We must not give up. !”
"Confused!" The first elder shouted lowly and asked: "Don't give up? How much benefit can you get if you don't give up? It can be compared with this time when the Chang family took over part of the Luo family and the Lin family's property. As long as we can step in, how much profit can we make this time?" The benefits are enough for us to enjoy it comfortably for a lifetime. So, we must intervene this time!"
Hearing this, the third elder thought for a while and nodded: "What the elder said makes sense."
"I also agree with the great elder's approach." The fourth elder seemed more urgent than the great elder and immediately looked at the great elder expectantly: "Great elder, without further ado, let's go find Chang Ganyi now. Talk to him."
"That's fine."
The great elder responded, opened the door first and walked out.
"Rumble..."
The moment the door was pushed open, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, and a bolt of lightning struck down from the distant sky.
"Crash..."
A heavy downpour suddenly fell. The great elder immediately retreated to the room and said helplessly: "It's raining. Forget it. It's getting dark today. There's no rush. Let's go find Chang Ganyi tomorrow."
In another courtyard of the Chang family, Chang Sheng looked at the sudden heavy rain outside the house with a smile on his face: "It's raining. It's really a timely rain. As long as the rain lasts long enough, Fenglan Fruit will grow tomorrow." Come out."
The rain came quickly and heavily.
In the pouring rain, in Fenglan Orchard, the broken branches of the horse chestnut tree grew crazily in the rain at a speed visible to the naked eye. The branches became taller and thicker, and soon they became thicker and taller. In a short time, the original hundred broken branches of the seven-leaf fruitless tree grew into small trees over two meters high, and they were still growing at a crazy speed.
Gradually, sections of branches grew from the main trunk. At the top of the branches, the red flower buds of Fenglan fruit gradually grew larger and were budding in the rain.
The Fenglan fruit, which only blooms once every hundred years, actually bloomed in just seven days after grafting!
As the horse chestnut tree grew taller and taller, walnut-sized fruits slowly sprouted from the branches, and then grew bigger and bigger until they reached the size of an adult's fist. For a time, the whole yard was filled with a rich aroma. At this time, the horse chestnut tree had grown to a height of more than four meters.
The next morning, Chang Ganyi got up early as usual and opened the window. This was his habit. He had to breathe fresh air early every morning.
"squeak……"
With a sound, the window was pushed open, and a strong aroma suddenly entered the nose.
Chang Ganyi was stunned for a moment. The aroma was so strange. He had never smelled this kind of aroma in all these years. What could have caused this kind of aroma? Chang Ganyi walked out of the room and looked for the source of the aroma. Walk in the direction.
"squeak……"
As soon as Piaomiao opened the door, a scent of fragrance rushed straight into Qiong's nose. This fragrance was very strong, but it did not make people feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, when the whole person smelled this fragrance, his spirit was shaken and his mood was... I can't help but feel comfortable.
“What a strange smell.”
Piao Miao muttered to herself and walked towards the direction where the scent came from.
"What smells so good?"
In the Presbytery, four elders walked out strangely.
The entire Chang family, as long as everyone got up early in the morning, smelled this fragrance that had never appeared before. Even Fang Xianyun stopped refining elixirs and walked out.
"This fragrance should be the fragrance of the ripe Fenglan fruit. And the Shengshi in the body... After raiding the Luo family yesterday, the Shengshi representing the Chang family in the body suddenly became nearly twice as strong, but today I can clearly feel it , the Shengshi in the body has become stronger again, it must be because the Fenglan Fruit has matured!"
Chang Sheng murmured to himself, dragging the black iron rod and running in the direction of Fenglan Orchard.
Chang Ganyi walked leisurely in the direction of the scent. Gradually, he found that he was walking towards the family's medicinal garden.
"Is the fragrance coming from the medicinal garden? But there are neither flowering nor mature medicinal herbs in the yard."
Chang Ganyi gave a puzzled look, took a few steps forward, looked up, and suddenly, his whole figure was frozen in place as if a immobilization spell had been cast on him.
In front of him, the Fenglan Orchard, which was originally destroyed by Chang Sheng and planted with very short branches by monkeys sent by the White-bearded Immortal, was now filled with a tree that he had never seen before.
"This... I'm not in the wrong place."
Chang Ganyi looked around in confusion. Yes, this was his family's medicinal garden. The yard in front of him was also Fenglan Guo's yard in the past. But where did these trees come from? There are also fruits on the trees. Why are these fruits Does it look so much like Feng Languo?
"Feng Languo? Is it really Feng Languo?"
Chang Ganyi exclaimed, no longer as carefree as before when he was strolling around in the garden. He quickly ran to the unknown tree and looked carefully at the fruits on the tree.
The entire fruit is about the size of an adult's fist, and on the top of the fruit, the fruit is slightly cracked, with five forks. Through the cracks of the forks, you can see traces of red juice that looks like blood.
"It is introduced in the family book that this is Fenglan Fruit, and it is a mature Fenglan Fruit!"
Seeing the appearance of the fruit clearly, Chang Ganyi felt a little unsteady for a moment, and then he steadied himself by holding on to the tree trunk.
The scene in front of me is too weird. Fenglan fruit blooms once every hundred years, bears fruit once every hundred years, and takes another hundred years to mature. However, it has only been seven days since this orchard was planted. How could this happen? What's the result? This couldn't be in a dream, right?
Chang Ganyi subconsciously raised his hand and pinched his thigh, and a burning pain suddenly spread from his thigh to his brain along the nerves.
"It hurts! This is not a dream, this is all real! Haha...ha, this is all real!"
Chang Ganyi couldn't help but laugh up to the sky. This was the first time he had lost his temper like this since he became the clan leader! It was more surprising than getting the top-grade Qi Condensing Pill, than finding out that Chang Sheng had become a master of sublimation, or even more surprised than Chang Sheng bringing monkeys. !Although those things are magical, they are all reasonable after all, and some people can do it! But, this scene before you!
"Seven days! In just seven days, fruits that take three hundred years can be produced. How on earth is this done? What method can be used to do it? I am afraid that only immortals can do this. Come on! Forgotten Immortal, what is there that he can’t do? Moreover, this fruit tree is so tall and has so many fruits that it’s scary!”
Chang Ganyi looked at the fruit trees in front of him, unable to calm down.
Normal Fenglan fruit trees are only over one meter tall. It would be good if each tree could bear two fruit trees. However, the fruit trees in front of us are at least four meters high, and each fruit tree bears more than twenty Fenglan fruits. fruit!
There are a hundred trees in total, and each tree bears more than 20 fruits, which is more than two thousand Fenglan fruits! This is not an ordinary apple tree on the roadside, this is Fenglan fruit, which can be used to refine the legendary second-level and third-level Fenglan fruits. One of the commonly used medicinal materials for elixirs, it is also a fruit in large demand by the national army.
