According to the rules set by Qingyun gate, the family''s Lingshan mountain is under the jurisdiction of the family within 800 miles. It can build towns, open up Lingtian, and let the vassal family live in it. All Qingyun gates here will not interfere.

    The whole Linhai county is thousands of miles old and is divided up by four families. Some families in the Qi training period have become their vassals.

    The third-order Lingshan mountain of the Shen family is as high as 500 feet, with ups and downs. Each mountain is surrounded by a main peak, which is also the place with the strongest aura of the whole Lingshan mountain. At the beginning, Shen Yucang waved his pen and named it "Yunbi peak", which connects the cloud sky and the blue sea.

    Within an 800 mile radius of Yunbifeng, the Shen family has built four towns here, which are inhabited by mortals of the Shen family and some mortals with other surnames.

    Shen Ruiling and his party headed for Yunbi peak. When they came to the foot of the mountain, they felt a strong aura. The mountain is not high and the gentle slope fluctuates. There are rows of buildings on the hillside, and the large spiritual field at the foot of the mountain is a first-order spiritual field, where only the first-order spiritual Valley can be planted.

    Although the Spirit Valley is only a first-class spirit object, the family cannot survive without it. Every day, the family consumes dozens of barrels of Spirit Valley to support more than 100 monks on the mountain.

    Now, at the foot of the mountain, more than 40 mu of spiritual land has been opened up, of which 10 mu has been newly reclaimed after the family has turned the crisis into safety in recent years.

    Although these are only first-order spiritual fields, reclamation is not so easy. At the foot of the mountain, there is a spiritual mountain called Yunbifeng. Some places naturally meet the spiritual requirements of first-order spiritual fields, and some places need to invest resources to cultivate.

    Now every mu of Lingtian can produce 300 stones of Linggu every season, because Linhai county is close to the boundless sea and has plenty of rain, so it can sow four seasons every year.

    In recent years, the Shen family planed the invested human and material resources and their own consumption every year, transported them to linhaifang city and sold them in Hushang square. They can also earn hundreds of spirit stones every year.

    Shen Ruiling is walking in the spirit field. More than a dozen family children in the early stage of Qi practice are harvesting the Spirit Valley. These family children in the early stage of Qi practice can only take some simple tasks because their cultivation is still weak and can''t take difficult family tasks.

    After working in the field for more than ten days, there are five pieces of spirit stone, which is favored by many young disciples. Shen Ruiling also did this kind of task at the beginning.

    Shen Ruiling saw a bull pulling a cart full of Linggu up the mountain. There were only a dozen iron backed bull families. They had to do some gravity work.

    Shen Ruiling rode an ox cart to the mountain. A young man in Lingtian saw Shen Ruiling and shouted excitedly:

    "Lao Jiu is back. How are you going out these years?"

    Shen Ruiling jumped out of the ox cart and returned a gift,

    "Let the fourth brother worry about it. It''s OK in recent years. It''s just homesick."

    "Ha ha, just come back. We miss you very much. I won''t talk to you, or the four elders will know that they will buckle my spirit stone again and come to my cave to talk in the evening. " The young man smiled.

    This young man, the fourth generation of Rui generation in the family, is the fourth oldest. His name is Shen Ruizhi. Shen Ruiling heard that the fourth brother is also a monk of sanlinggen. He is also good among the fourth generation of Rui generation in the family, but he can''t compare with Shen Ruiling. Now he has only practiced Qi six levels.

    After saying goodbye to his fourth brother Shen Ruizhi, he met some people and said hello. Shen Ruiling went to the Shuwu hall halfway up the mountain and was ready to return the three barbarians he had brought back from Hushang square.

    The common affairs hall is halfway up the mountain. There is an atmospheric attic with a sign. It manages the affairs of the family, big and small, ranging from changing the cave to receiving salaries. Therefore, there are the most people in and out here.

    "Zhao Jie, wait here. I''ll go in."

    Entering the gate, a wall is full of tasks, which is similar to the task Hall of the casual repair alliance, but the tasks here are family affairs such as looking after spiritual grass and receiving spiritual valley.

    It''s much better than the casual alliance''s task of fighting with life. This is also the way for the family to give resources to the people in disguise.

    Shen Ruiling saw that there was no one in the hall at this time, so she saw a person sleeping on the recliner behind the counter.

    "Seven uncles." Shen Ruiling cried carefully.

    "Well, ah..." the old man on the couch was awakened.

    When he got up and saw Shen Ruiling lazily say:

    "Are you the boy from the second brother''s family?"

    "Yes, uncle seven."

    "Well, my second brother has a good grandson. It''s not like my family. Big and small are useless." The old man said lovingly.

    The old man has gray hair. Although he is the seventh of the third generation, he is much older than Shen huanqun.

    "Uncle Qi is serious."

    "The Rui generation has a chance to build a foundation for you. There are several Rui generation left... "The old man nagged from time to time.

    "Well, talk about it. What''s the matter this time?"

    "Ruiling is here to return the bull, and is ready to lead a cave."

    "Well, take the bull to the cowshed and find your uncle. He will arrange it. This is your cave token. " Then he handed it over.

    Seeing the people coming again, Shen Ruiling said:

    "Ruiling leaves."

    "Go. By the way, since you''re back, go and see the clan leader in the back mountain. You''ve been thinking about you outside for years." The old man warned.

    "Yes, I''ll go to the back mountain to meet the patriarch after I finish my cattle and horses."

    ……

    Shen Ruiling walked to a valley with an ox cart. It is a second-class spiritual place with lush grass and abundant spiritual power. Relying on the special geographical environment here, the family established a grassland here.

    The valley was not big. Shen Ruiling saw two adult iron backed wild cattle eating grass leisurely, followed by four or five calves.

    On the other side of the grassland is a group of striped pigs. This kind of pig has only first-class strength, but it is a rare human delicacy.

    This kind of pig has black-and-white stripes, large size, compact meat, symmetrical structure, strong limbs, slightly long head and transverse wrinkles on the forehead. Pig ears are medium, soft and drooping, with less skin folds, rare drooping meat under the neck, straight back and waist, and large abdomen without dragging the ground.

    Striped pigs are commonly used in the cultivation world. They not only have more meat, but each striped pig can reach about 800 kg as an adult. They are also rich in aura, which is more beneficial to cultivation than Linggu. Sometimes a piece of pork can be worth a bowl of rice.

    In a house in gukou, a middle-aged man and several ethnic people are busy.

    This person is Shen Ruiling''s uncle, the eldest of the three generations of the family, Shen Jingfeng. I don''t like cultivation naturally, but I''m very interested in raising spiritual animals.

    He not only read all the family books, but also asked Shen Jinghua, sixth uncle of Shen Ruiling, to collect some books on raising spiritual animals for him from Qingyun gate.

    I have to say that uncle Shen Ruiling is really talented in breeding. Since he took over the family grassland, there will be one more cowboy for the iron backed wild cattle of the family every few years, and the Striped pigs are also increasing year by year.

    And under his feeding, the Striped pig was raised to a thousand kilograms by him. It can not only satisfy the people''s happiness, but also sell it to Fangshi restaurants and earn 500 more spirit stones every year.

    He also sorted out the breeding experience of the family, added his own breeding skills, and compiled a Book Jingfeng essentials, which recorded some breeding methods, which provided a great reference value for the future spiritual animal breeding of the family.

    At the beginning, Shen Ruiling also saw it in the Sutra Pavilion. When he told the elder guarding the pavilion to study, he was educated by the elder cabinet for a while, saying that he could not leave his job.

    These trails may not be worth mentioning in the eyes of some people, and only their own cultivation is fundamental. But what they don''t know is that these trails are also essential for family development.

    ……

    Shen Ruiling came to the room and saw his uncle busy preparing forage.

    "Uncle"

    The middle-aged man looked up at him,

    "Ruiling! Ha ha, you haven''t been strong for years. " The middle-aged man smiled when he saw Shen Ruiling.

    "I''m worried about you, uncle. I''ve come to return the family bull." Shen Ruiling replied.

    "Well, if you ask someone to unload the car from the cow, it will go back to the herd by itself."

    "You''ve been out for a few years. Well, your realm is higher than your uncle." The middle-aged man said with a happy face.

    "I can''t compare with my uncle. You can bring a lot of spirit stones to the family every year." Shen Ruiling smiled.

    "That is, who else in the family can surpass me in breeding technology?" The middle-aged man said proudly.

    Shen Ruiling talked with the middle-aged man for a while.

    "Well, don''t stay with me. Hurry back. Uncle is going to provide for the aged here."

    "Nephew, leave."

    ……

    Shen Ruiling is going to go back to the cave he just got, and then go to the back mountain to meet the patriarch.

    The family opened more than a dozen caves above the hillside, which can meet the cultivation of more than a dozen monks in the later stage of Qi cultivation.

    People under the age of 16 at the beginning of Qi practice can live in ethnic schools, and ethnic elders teach all kinds of knowledge.

    The rest of the friars in the early and middle stages of Qi cultivation can also meet their daily cultivation by living in those attics on the hillside.

    Shen Ruiling came to the cave and felt it. His aura was enough for him to cultivate. He sorted out his things and took Zhao Jie to the back mountain.
