Under the reluctance of the two housekeepers, Lou Xiaoyi firmly pushed forward his reform, because he knew that the truth would be revealed in about ten years, not because of the new emperor, but because of his reunion with his mother.
With so many properties, if they were to divide them up at the last minute, they would suffer countless losses. It would be chaotic and disorderly. His mother was very good to the servants and was never willing to dismiss them easily. He had the obligation to maintain his mother's wishes and give them a way out that was not too bad.
It was also so that he could leave without any burden.
Cutting ties with the past was not as simple as walking away. He was not a playboy who could kill people on a snowy night by burning down a thatched cottage!
He needed to plan!
Fortunately, there was still time for the two servants to think things through.
"Also, if there are people who deliberately cause trouble during this process, try to trip you up, or do something bad, don't be weak and endure. I'll find some people for you. Just treat yourselves as local bullies and gangsters and come to me if anything happens!"
After settling the external affairs, Lou Xiaoyi returned to his mother's bedroom. Now, he needed to rely on the skills he had painstakingly practiced for four years to help his only remaining relative in this world. For him, who was not an alchemist or physician, this was not easy.
But he had no one to ask for help!
Before dinner, his mother woke up. Seeing her son beside her, she was relieved. In this world, there was no such thing as the death of the Emperor, and the death of the Emperor. But things were changing in this direction. She did not want revenge, but she was worried about her son. Cultivators always did things that mortals could not imagine. She did not want to put Lou Xiaoyi in danger because of them. In Night Emperor City, there were not only mortal armies, but also mysterious forces.
During dinner, his mother's appetite improved. Under Lou Xiaoyi's arrangement, the screen in the bedroom was removed, and the windows and doors were opened. The room was brightly lit, and the air was fresh. After chatting with his mother for a while, he began to deal with the numbness in his mother's calf.
His mother knew that he was cultivating, so she was not worried. In her heart, her son was the best, and there was nothing he could not solve.
Lou Xiaoyi's method was very simple, and there wasn't anything special about it. It was just to inject a tiny bit of spiritual vigor into the calf and circulate it along the meridians. This was to find the blockage and then use it to break through and clear it.
It sounded simple, and it wasn't hard to judge, but it was a real challenge. Because they had been delayed for a month, many parts of the meridians were completely blocked. There was no way to open them up. There were only two ways to open them up. One was to use force, and the other was to use medicine to remove the blockage.
A violent impact was not advisable. Even a normal young person's meridians would not be able to withstand the impact of his spiritual power. He was only a Qi eating cultivator, not a Zhuji cultivator. His control over the movement of his spiritual power was limited and not subtle enough. Because his spiritual power was in a gaseous state, its impact was far less powerful than that of a liquid state. He could only increase the amount. After increasing the amount, once it broke through, the remaining power would cause irreversible damage to the old man's meridians.
In other words, the blockage had been opened, but the meridians had been broken. It was meaningless.
He could only find medicine to remove the blockage. But what kind of medicine could have such miraculous power? Medicinal herbs from the mortal world obviously would not work, and he did not have much contact with medicinal pills from the cultivation world … He began to regret not buying more medicinal pills from Feng Huang Mountain … No one had foresight.
As Lou Xiaoyi probed, he nervously weighed the pros and cons. Should he make another trip to Feng Huang Mountain and buy some medicinal pills that could help? But there was a very real problem. This kind of blockage would get worse with each passing day. Right now, with his incessant spiritual power cleansing, it could barely prevent the blockage from worsening. If he were to go back and forth for more than half a month, he was afraid that even if he begged for an immortal pill, it would not be too late!
Two days later, Lou Xiaoyi made an important decision.
After dinner, Lou Xiaoyi found a tall wooden bucket to soak his feet in. It was so high that it reached his knees.
Lou Yaoshi looked at him, her face full of distress. "Little Yi, is it very troublesome? Actually, if I can't walk, then so be it. At my age, there are plenty of people who can't walk. I'll just make a moving chair. With them pushing me, where can't I go? "
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "It's not troublesome, not troublesome at all. Your son has plenty of ways. If this method doesn't work, I'll change to something else. If it really doesn't work, I'll go out and ask for help. In the cultivation world, this kind of problem is not a problem!"
He said it casually, but only he knew in his heart that this was really the last method he could think of. If this still did not work, he really did not know what to do. Perhaps the only way was to go to Feng Huang Mountain behind his mother's back and pay a high price to see if he could get a Foundation Establishment cultivator to help. This seemed to be the only feasible method.
Lukewarm water was poured into the bucket. His mother took off her shoes and soaked in the water until it reached her knees. Lou Xiaoyi took out a jade bottle from his bosom and poured out a spinning bead from it. The bead was filled with brilliance and was surrounded by a dense mist. With one look, one could tell that it was an extraordinary item. There was also a strange fragrance that made one intoxicated.
Lou Yaoshi wanted to pull her feet out of the bucket. In her subconscious mind, such a precious item should not be used to soak one's feet. That would be blasphemous. However, Lou Xiaoyi pressed down with one hand, making her feet unable to move an inch.
"Little Yi, what is this? Don't blaspheme a sacred item. There will be divine punishment. You will be blamed for not respecting the heavens … Mother won't soak it, won't soak it … "
Lou Xiaoyi laughed. "This is called a Great Treasure Pill. To put it bluntly, it's the same as the Great Strength Pills in Pu City! It's just that cultivators make it so that it overflows with brilliance. It's just to trick people and sell it at a high price!
This kind of pill, your son can casually buy dozens of it. How can it be a sacred item? What divine punishment? I think you've read too many novels, haven't you? "
Lou Yaoshi was skeptical. However, how could she know anything about cultivation? She could only believe whatever her son said and treat it as an ordinary Great Strength Pill.
Of course, this was not the Great Strength Pill. In fact, Lou Xiaoyi only had this one pill. Furthermore, with his current net worth, even if he added up a thousand five hundred spirit stones and other miscellaneous items together, he would not be able to buy half of this pill!
In the cultivation world, this item had a famous name — Foundation Establishment Pill!
The function of the Foundation Establishment Pill was, of course, the most important catalyst to help a cultivator transform Qi into rain in their dantian. It was exceptionally precious. It was the pinnacle of melting and the saint of dissolving. These were all things that Lou Xiaoyi learned from the notes of the cultivator who was killed in Yao Manor.
The reason why the Foundation Establishment Pill was precious was because of one of its main ingredients, the Spring and Autumn Fruit!
In theory, it could also be used on mortals. However, the dosage needed to be carefully controlled so that the medicinal strength would not be too strong and cause discomfort to the recipient.
The Foundation Establishment Pill was very precious. It was so precious that even at the Myriad Cultivator Fair on Feng Huang Mountain, no sect or individual sold it. This was something that could almost determine a cultivator's future. It meant that the cultivator would have an extra hundred years of life, could fly freely in the sky, and could use magic at will. This was the threshold of the true Dao foundation. How could it be described with the value of spirit stones?
Five thousand low-grade spirit stones was the official price. In fact, there was a price but no market. Even if you took out ten thousand spirit stones, there was no place to buy it. This was because these things were rare and had long been pre-ordered by cultivators from sects with backgrounds. They would not enter the circle of rogue cultivators. Liang Kuangren's pill was snatched from someone he killed!
However, in Lou Xiaoyi's heart, his mother was more important! He did not need to worry about choosing!
