Chapter 28: The Irresistible Peach Blossom Luck
"Oh no! Still can't hold it back!" Su Dong's face turned pale as he turned his head to look at the two peach blossoms outside the window.
"What didn't stop?" Su Qi Nian was taken aback and asked curiously.
Su Dong's heart was already twisted, and the two peach blossoms in the courtyard had become his heart disease. Su Qi didn't understand Feng Shui, but he still liked to make trouble for Su Dong.
These two peach blossoms were originally blocked by Su Dong's bluestone fence, just to prevent the peach blossoms from being too strong. As a result, Su Qiannian quietly replaced those thick bluestones with thin ceramic bricks, saying it was for aesthetic purposes.
It looks good, but peach blossoms can't be blocked!
Being able to survive in this gloomy place and bloom with fruit is enough to prove how vigorous the life force of these two peach blossoms is.
Moreover, peach blossoms occupy the Jingmen in the Qimen Zhifa, and its influence extends to the entire courtyard!
The Four Gates Double Wood Formation is a typical water-based formation, the main vitality, under the effect of the formation, two peach blossoms become more and more enchanting every day, to the point where even Su Dong can't completely control them.
Put down the chopsticks and Su Dong said in a low voice, "These two peach trees are really ugly, let's change to two other kinds of trees, even pomegranates or begonias will do."
Pomegranate and hawthorn are also good at enhancing peach blossoms, but they are generally weaker than the peach tree.
Su Qi Nian took a sip of wine and said lightly: "No need, I just like peach blossoms."
Just like peach blossoms! ?
One sentence left Su Dong speechless.
Taking a closer look, Su Qi's eyes were slightly upturned, obviously influenced by the peach blossoms. Even silly Su Ning was getting rosier day by day.
Gritting his teeth, Su Dong said: "Leaving these two trees is also okay, but we need to use bluestone to surround them again."
Su Qiannian looked at Su Dong with an uncomprehending expression, saying in a low voice: "It's strange, why do you dislike these two peach trees? After some days when the peaches are ripe, don't be greedy."
……
Su Dong suddenly realized that there were indeed things in this world that he couldn't handle on his own.
The inheritance of Qimen is naturally very strong, but peach blossoms are special and belong to a kind of good luck, which is the heavenly way.
In the Qimen transmission, there is a method to weaken the Peach Blossom, but it cannot be completely eliminated.
Another one is Su Qi Nian, Su Dong suspects that God sent him down on purpose to be his opponent.
Su Dong wanted to kill these two peach blossoms, but Su Qiannian refused and even watered and fertilized them every day, raising the two peach blossoms to be full of spirit!
What evil deeds! Truly evil deeds.
It's been just a few days since I moved in, and already there are matchmakers at the door. Who knows what will happen after some more days!
That night, Hanshing City was in chaos, with countless deaths and injuries, which had already frightened the citizens out of their wits.
In the city, rumors that the Ice Age is approaching and the Snow Demon will threaten the mainland again have been circulating among the people for a long time, and many believe it.
Against the cruel Snow Demon, no amount of wealth is useful; self-preservation relies solely on military strength.
The Su family has two warriors, with a clean family background. Among them, Su Dong is even a high-ranking spiritual warrior. Recently, he killed the head of the martial arts school, Ma Jin, with one sword, showing off his super fighting power and becoming the most popular person in Hansheng City for a time.
So many families thought of forming an alliance with the Su family. If the Snow Demon really came, with the Su family's help, life would be a little better.
That's why a large number of matchmakers rushed to the Su family to propose marriage, not only Su Dong and Su Ning, but also Su's old father is now a popular candidate, walking on the street, don't know how many young women are throwing flirtatious glances.
The next morning, Su Dong got out of bed and saw Su Qiyan still fiddling with those two strange peach blossoms. Su Dong was so angry that he didn't even eat breakfast and went out onto the streets with a dark face.
Su Qiannian didn't say anything, but it's not a big deal. He said something last night and Su Dong took it to heart. As expected, on the streets and at the entrance of alleys, many young and beautiful girls pretended to be strolling around, but their eyes were intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Su Dong.
Su Dong knew that this was a pre-engagement custom, where the woman would secretly take a look first and if she agreed, the matchmaker would visit the next day.
"What are you looking at!" Su Dongyi suddenly became impatient and directly shouted at the mother-daughter pair at the alley entrance, his usual elegance disappearing into thin air.
The mother and daughter didn't expect Su Dong to yell at them directly, so they were startled and ran away quickly, while Su Dong couldn't avoid facing the surprised gazes around her.
"Get out of my sight!" Su Dong didn't care about being polite or not, and directly scolded, lowering his head and rushing to the martial arts hall. Even if it was a girl who looked like she had some charm, Su Dong found her more and more displeasing to look at.
In fact, Su Dong does not oppose normal relationships between men and women, romantic love is natural.
But this marriage was caused by peach blossoms and was not a normal marriage, which made Su Dong's heart feel uncomfortable.
From a distance, Zhou Xing waved at him, and Su Dong let out a sigh of relief, also waving his hand in response.
"Teacher, you're here quite early today." Su Dong said.
"Alas, don't mention it, I didn't sleep all night." Zhou Xing accompanied Su Dong to the martial arts hall, sighing as he spoke.
"Could it be that Master has something on his mind?" Su Dong asked curiously.
He nodded and said, "You saved my son, but then the Wu family demoted you to a Ling Nong. I told my father about this, and he was furious. It's not that I, Zhou Xing, don't know how to repay kindness, it's just that there's really nothing I can do to help with this matter."
Su Dong smiled and said, "Teaching head, this matter has nothing to do with you. From now on, I will go to the Lingtian in the north of the city every day, and I won't have time to stay in the martial arts hall. If you are free, you can go and point out some techniques, that would be helping me."
Zhou Xing was a straightforward person, Su Dong had figured it out, and if he didn't let him repay the kindness, Zhou Xing would be suffocated to death, so he pointed out a way for him.
Zhou Xing was taken aback, hastily nodded in agreement, patted his chest and said: "This matter would have been done even if you didn't mention it, don't worry, no matter how busy I am, I won't let your studies fall behind. Isn't it just Chengbei Lingtian? I'll ride my horse there in a moment."
Pausing for a moment, Zhou Xing hesitated and ventured: "Also, our old man at home has an idea that I think is not bad."
"What proposal?" Su Dong asked casually.
"I have a distant cousin, 15 years old this year. The old man at home said that we can take her in as our own daughter and raise her. Then when you marry her, we'll be one family..."
"Hey, I haven't finished speaking, why did you leave?!" Zhou Xing shouted as he chased after Su Dong.
Su Dong was so annoyed in his heart that even Zhou Xing came to tell him about this matter, it can be seen that the peach blossoms have spread to what extent!
"If you don't like it, I won't mention this matter again." Zhou Xing saw Su Dong's face turn black and changed his tone.
Two people came to the backyard of the Wuguan's backyard, the Tianxing Wuguan was quite large in scale, this place Su Dong had never been before, it was remote, with poor feng shui, and looked dilapidated.
Zhou Xing looked at Su Dong and frowned, saying in a low voice: "I've told you before, Ling Nong's status is very low."
"In the past when there was no star technique, Ling Nong was indeed an important logistical force. Practicing martial arts required eating spiritual grains and taking spiritual medicine when injured. But now it's different, Ling Nong's glorious period has passed. Just one star technique can benefit countless warriors, and even spiritual medicine is being gradually replaced by those star technique therapists."
Three low and humble bungalows were the headquarters of Tianxing Wuguan Lingnong Society, which was vastly different from the grand and luxurious front yard of the martial arts hall.
The door was open, and Su Dong walked in to take a look. He saw an old fat man sleeping soundly.
"Mr. Kong Jing, this is Su Dong, who has just joined the Ling Nong Society and was originally a warrior in the Wu Guan." Zhou Xing said to wake up the old man.
Kong Jing hastily nodded, his gaze at Su Dong was full of surprise, and he said: "The host has already told me that a warrior is going to join the Ling Nong Society. This is the first time in so many years for our agricultural society, please come quickly."
Kong Jing bowed his head, and at a glance, he was accustomed to nodding and bowing every day. He made tea for Su Dong and Zhou Xing, but unfortunately, the quality of the tea leaves was extremely poor, with a fishy smell. Su Dong and Zhou Xing didn't move.
Su Dong asked curiously: "Don't other warriors want to come to Ling Nong She? Planting Linggu and spiritual medicine is also a good skill, isn't it?"
Kong Jing scratched his head, looking embarrassed: "The warriors' monthly training fees alone exceed ten taels, how can they look down on Ling Nong's meager income? To be honest with you, there are 21 mouths to feed in the Ling Nong Society, all of whom are elderly and have no future prospects in martial arts. They really have no choice but to make a living here."
Su Dong looked at Kong Jing's worn-out clothes and asked, "Isn't Ling Nong making any money? That Ling Valley is worth one or two silver coins per catty, and the high-quality ones are even more expensive, up to five silver coins. Not to mention other even more precious spiritual medicines."
Kong Jingdao said, "The price is not low, but unfortunately, the spiritual fields in Hansheng City have poor quality and low yield. The spiritual valley only produces 50 kilograms per mu of land. After deducting expenses, it's already a loss. As for spiritual medicine, the losses are even more severe. If it weren't for the subsidies from the Martial Arts Hall, the Spiritual Farm Association would have gone bankrupt long ago."
One mu of spiritual land can only produce fifty kilograms of spiritual grains? Su Dong's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
