There were hundreds of cultivator clans around Zhenjiang City.
However, only thirty-six clans owned the Golden Elixir Daoist, and they were known as Zhenjiang's thirty-six great cultivator clans.
Lu Qingshan's previous life's Lu Clan was one of the thirty-six great cultivator clans.
The Lu Clan was located on Secret River Peak, the main peak of the Qianzhou Mountain Range.
Even a cultivator clan would need a mortal force.
Secret River Town was located at the foot of Secret River Peak, and it belonged to the Lu Clan.
His previous life was in charge of the clan's business, and he often traveled between Secret River Town and Zhenjiang City, so he was very familiar with the roads.
Lu Qingshan followed his memory, and after a day of traveling, he entered Secret River Town.
The Lu Clan had occupied Secret River Peak for a long time, and after many years of development, Secret River Town was actually very prosperous.
The roads in the town were paved with bluestone, and it was clean and tidy. On the long street that could accommodate two carriages, there were many pedestrians, and it was very lively.
The houses on the side of the road were mostly two-story and three-story buildings, and many of them were decorated with carved beams and painted pillars, looking very luxurious.
On the west side of Secret River Town, there were many merchants, and the security was good, and the environment was elegant.
In the west side, there was a clothing store under the Lu Clan's name.
"I've only given you this little task, and you're still dragging it out, how can I be at ease handing over the clothing store to you in the future!" Hearing this familiar reprimand from afar, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but smile.
He looked through the door.
He saw a gray-haired old man with his back facing him, holding a feather duster in his hand, and scolding a young man who was no more than fourteen to fifteen years old.
The young man lowered his head and looked like he was obediently being scolded, but in fact, his eyeballs kept rolling, and it was obvious that he didn't listen to the old man's scolding.
Suddenly, the young man's rolling eyeballs caught a glimpse of Lu Qingshan at the door, and his eyes widened. He pointed outside the door and said with a trembling voice, "Lu … Lu …"
"Lu what Lu!" Seeing that the young man still dared to be distracted while being scolded, the old man blew his beard and glared, and his voice became louder, "Lu Xun you bastard, you still dare to be distracted?"
"Grandpa, it's Lu Qingshan, Brother Lu!" Lu Xun finally caught his breath.
"What Lu Qingshan …" The old man subconsciously turned in the direction of Lu Qingshan's finger and saw Lu Qingshan standing at the door with a smile on his face.
Bang!
The old man loosened his grip, and the feather duster in his hand fell to the ground.
The old man's name was Lu Zhi. He was a collateral descendant of the Lu Clan. His qi level was of the sixth realm. When he grew old, he retired from the mountain and took charge of this boutique.
Lu Xun was his grandson, a mortal without any cultivation base.
Lu Qingshan used to work in this boutique.
Lu Qingshan's father, Lu Bei, was one of the only three Golden Elixir Daoists in the Lu family.
Therefore, even though Lu Qingshan didn't have any talent for cultivation and was just an ordinary person, his status in this large clothing store wasn't low, and he was able to mingle his way into the position of a middle-level manager.
.....
In a side room in the backyard of the boutique.
"What's going on? What happened four months ago? We all thought you were dead, and Lu Xun was sad for a long time … "Lu Zhi looked at Lu Qingshan's face and couldn't believe it.
Four months ago, Lu Qingshan brought three workers from the boutique and escorted a large batch of cloth to Zhenjiang City. In the end, the four of them mysteriously disappeared on the way.
He immediately reported this to the family, and the family also sent people from the Duty Hall to investigate, but they didn't find anything.
After so many days, they all assumed that Lu Qingshan had met with misfortune.
They didn't expect that Lu Qingshan would appear alive and well.
"Grandpa, you're still talking about me. Who was the one who hid in his room and drank alone during that time?" Lu Xun exposed with disdain.
"You brat, you're the only one who can do that. Grandpa is talking to Qingshan, why are you interrupting!" Lu Zhi slapped the back of Lu Xun's head and lectured him.
The familiar people and things in front of him made Lu Qingshan feel an inexplicable emotion reverberating in his chest.
It was the emotion that belonged to the Lu Qingshan of this world.
His father was a womanizer and had many children, and he was insignificant among them. He had never seen his father since he was born.
His mother passed away due to illness when he was five.
So he didn't have a deep impression of his parents.
He grew up in this boutique. Although Lu Zhi was not related to him by blood, he treated him like his own grandson, and Lu Xun also respected him as his big brother.
They were the two closest people in Lu Qingshan's memory of this world.
"Big Brother Lu, that's right. Why did you disappear for so long? Where are Ah Long and the others? Why did you come back alone?" Lu Xun scratched the back of his head and asked with concern.
Ah Long and the others were the workers who escorted the goods with Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan chuckled and said, "It's a long story … We were attacked by Heretic Cultivators. Those Heretic Cultivators violated Da Xia Kingdom's ban and captured civilians to refine into Corpse Puppets."
"Corpse Puppets!" Lu Zhi's expression changed.
He was a cultivator after all, and he knew about the infamy of Corpse Puppets.
"What's a Corpse Puppet?" Lu Xun was confused.
"Don't interrupt," Lu Zhi said, then looked at Lu Qingshan. "Then how did you …"
Heretic Cultivators were ruthless, and he couldn't imagine how Lu Qingshan escaped from the hands of Heretic Cultivators.
"That heretic cultivator was active in the vicinity of Origin Mountain City. For some reason, he was discovered by an organization called Zhishou Building in Origin Mountain City. The cultivators from Zhishou Building exterminated the heretic cultivator and rescued me.
However, Ah Long and the others didn't last until then. I was also heavily injured and had to recuperate in Origin Mountain City for a long time. I only returned to Riverrun City with a caravan a few days ago … "
This was also the explanation Lu Qingshan was prepared to use to deal with the cultivators from his family.
Lu Xun was dumbfounded.
As a cultivator, Lu Zhi could understand the danger involved and was relieved. "Thank goodness, thank goodness. If that cultivator from Zhishou Tower came a little later, the consequences would be unimaginable …"
.....
"Big Brother Lu, because Grandpa didn't see your corpse, he insisted that you weren't dead. He still left you the position of manager!" Lu Xun suddenly thought of this and said proudly.
Lu Qingshan looked at Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi nodded at Lu Qingshan and said affirmatively, "Lu Xun is right. I still left you the position of manager. Rest for a few days, then you can continue to be in charge of your previous work."
Lu Zhi was prepared to let Lu Qingshan and Lu Xun be in charge of this boutique in the future.
Lu Qingshan shook his head slightly. "Grandpa Lu, I might not be able to continue working in the boutique."
Lu Zhi was stunned. "What do you mean?"
Lu Qingshan reached out his right hand and mobilized the spiritual energy in his body. Soon, a layer of dense white light appeared on his hand.
As a cultivator, Lu Zhi could naturally recognize what this was.
"Spiritual energy?! Qingshan, you've become a cultivator? "
Lu Qingshan pursed his lips. "Yes, I was lucky enough to cultivate spiritual energy."
"Good! Good! Good! "Lu Zhi was so excited that he said good three times in a row." One who survives a great disaster is bound to have good fortune in the future! "
Lu Xun's face was also full of excitement. "Big Brother Lu, you've become a cultivator!"
The status of cultivators, compared to mortals, was a world of difference.
After becoming a cultivator, Lu Qingshan could enter the family's blessed land to cultivate.
If he succeeded in his cultivation, he would be able to get a position as the family's manager. Then, in Mihe Town, his words carried enormous weight.
Even if he couldn't become a high-level cultivator, like Lu Zhi, who had no desire to cultivate, he would be assigned to manage the family's business.
