No matter how lively it is outside, it has nothing to do with the third room.
The third room was very peaceful.
The couple went into seclusion together.
Before the retreat, Xie Shen pulled Xie Jiuniang over and whispered, "My daughter, your grandfather said that some strangers came to the city and their behavior is a bit suspicious. I'm afraid something will happen. You, a child, should not go out to play if you have nothing to do. If you have anything to do, you have to wait until your mother and I come out of retreat, understand?"
"I got it. I wish Dad can succeed in building his foundation soon." Xie Jiuniang nodded obediently, which made Xie Shen feel much more at ease.
So during the days when her parents were in seclusion, Xie Jiuniang activated the formation every day and never left the house.
I have met Xie Si Niang secretly several times.
Xie Jiuniang gave her all the Qi-nourishing pills that she had no use for, and also urged her to practice hard and strive to join a major sect this year.
Xie Si Niang didn't take much advantage of her and stuffed a handful of talismans into her hands.
Some were painted by her, and some by her father.
Xie Jiuniang thought about it and accepted the talisman. It was not because she was short of it, but because she knew that only by accepting it would Xie Siniang feel at ease.
At the same time, Xie Si Niang's arrival also brought some gossip about Xie Ying.
Now Xie Ying is surrounded by people when she goes out, and there are many people trying to please her. In addition, Xie Ying has made some new friends, who are said to be from large families of immortal cultivators.
Xie Jiuniang seemed to be thinking about something.
Have those people started to approach Xie Ying
In fact, it would be best to leave Yunmu City at this time to avoid being investigated by certain people. However, she was still young, and her parents would definitely be worried if she left a letter and went out alone.
Let’s wait until our parents come out of quarantine before discussing it.
Even if I don't leave now.
I will have to leave after the major sects recruit disciples.
Knowing that she would not stay in the clan for long, Xie Jiuniang set her sights on the Xie family library. A family with a long history naturally has its own extraordinary qualities.
When I arrived in front of the library, I handed over the family's disciple token and was allowed in after being checked by the elder guarding the library.
The rules of the library are that the books inside can only be read and memorized, and cannot be copied or taken out. During the Qi training period, only books on the first floor can be borrowed. Xie Jiuniang has no objection, as there are tens of thousands of books on the first floor alone.
The collection of books is rich and diverse.
The main ones are skills and techniques, with the four arts of alchemy, formations and talismans as secondary. There are also various miscellaneous studies, such as planting, treasure appraisal, beast taming, poisonous insects, puppets and mechanical techniques, etc.
Xie Jiuniang flipped through the book roughly and found a book on corpse refining on the shelf. After opening it, she realized that it was about refining animal corpses, which was similar to puppetry.
There are also many books on medicine and poisons.
There is even astrology and divination!
I couldn't help but pick up a book about astrology and started reading it carefully. I didn't want to learn it, I just wanted to understand it first and know how to prevent being predicted by others.
For several days.
Xie Jiuniang never left the library, and whenever she was hungry she would take a fasting pill.
"Ninth sister!"
Xie Ying shouted in surprise.
Xie Jiuniang frowned slightly and reminded: "Eldest sister, please pay attention to the occasion."
Xie Ying seemed to realize that something was wrong, and an apologetic expression appeared on her cold face. She walked slowly to Xie Jiuniang and said softly, "I'm sorry, I was too surprised to see you. I went to see you several times before, and He Xiang said you were in seclusion."
Xie Jiuniang didn't want to pay attention to her.
It’s not that there are no other tribesmen on the first floor, but no one speaks to avoid disturbing others.
Xie Jiuniang used her spiritual sense to transmit the message: "Eldest sister, if you have anything to say, please speak up."
Xie Ying also transmitted a message: "Xiao Jiu, I have to go to the sect ahead of time. Tianxu Sect sent someone here to say that we will leave tomorrow. Fortunately, I finally saw you before I left. I have always wanted to say goodbye to you in person."
"Oh, congratulations." Xie Jiuniang congratulated calmly.
Xie Ying chuckled and said, "This is all thanks to my ninth sister."
"Huh?..." How should we talk about this
Xie Ying left.
Knowing that there were outsiders in the mansion, Xie Jiuniang didn't want to leave the library even more.
There is a big formation in the library, and non-family members are not allowed to enter. Here, there is no need to worry about being investigated by outsiders.
…
Three months later.
An inconspicuous carriage drove out of Yunmu City.
The person driving the car was Xie Shen in disguise.
In the carriage were Mo Lan and Xie Jiuniang, mother and daughter, wearing mortal clothes and restraining the aura of a monk. This was thanks to the superb breath-suppressing talisman that Xie Jiuniang had drawn.
Xie Shen is already a foundation-building cultivator.
Moran was still at the ninth level of Qi training. After taking the marrow cleansing pill, his training had improved a lot.
After Xie Jiuniang took the Marrow Cleansing Pill and her cultivation level reached the sixth level of Qi training, she did not practice much. She stayed in the library almost day and night, writing down the key points.
I finished reading almost all the books on the first floor in three months.
During this time, he took the time to use the new knowledge he had learned to privately refine some things, a variety of things, new and old, including rusty broken swords, damaged animal skins, broken-horn lampstands, beads, stone elephants, etc. Some of them were surrounded by precious light at first glance, while others were ordinary.
She kept all these things safely.
You never know when it might come in handy.
Until the parents come out.
Xie Jiuniang said she wanted to leave early and not travel with her family.
There is still half a year before the sect starts recruiting disciples.
In this life, after careful consideration, she still chose to go to Tianxu Sect.
One of the reasons is that Xie Ying is in Tianxu Sect.
According to what she knew about astrology and divination, people with high levels of cultivation would often avoid the main issues and do indirect divination, that is, they would not predict the person involved, but would try to predict small things and then work out the general idea.
For example, if we only measure the general direction of the Son of Destiny, if it is not the location of Tianxu Sect, wouldn't it tell others that the Son of Destiny is not Xie Ying, but someone else.
Besides, choosing other large sects is inevitable.
For example, Wu Yu is from the Minghua Sect, the Gongsun family is from the Chiyang Sect, etc. It would be better for them to go to the Tianxu Sect, at least they are familiar with the environment.
Of course, the most important thing is that she knows a few opportunities that can only be obtained by going to Tianxu Sect.
After discussing it, the couple immediately decided to leave with their daughter, thinking that whichever sect their daughter joined, they would live in the market place of that sect and do some small business.
This way I don’t have to be separated from my daughter and can see her often.
Xie Jiuniang was naturally happy.
She also didn't want to be separated from her parents. When she got those opportunities, she would help her parents improve their spiritual roots and qualifications. This way, her parents wouldn't leave her early like in her previous life.
The carriage gradually moved away from Yunmu City.
The family of three didn't know that someone on the city wall was watching them leave.
There are still people in Yunmu City who are keeping an eye on the Xie family. Those people think they are very secretive, but in fact, the top leaders of the Xie family have known about it for a long time.
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move.
Patriarch Xie observed for a long time, but still had no idea what the other party's purpose was. However, the origins of those people were all huge monsters that the Xie family could not afford to provoke.
I was so worried that some of my hair fell out.
So when San'er's family proposed to leave quietly, Patriarch Xie did not stop them, and even took the initiative to cover up for them.
When asked by relatives, he just said that he went to visit his maternal family.
I wish you all a happy Lantern Festival! ~
