Chapter 413 : 174: Blood Talisman Spiritual Body, Second Rank Alchemy!_3
He indicated that he would probably be busy for a while.
"No worries, Lu Lang, go ahead, important matters come first,"
Xiao Xiyue didn't throw a fit.
She knew that, over the past few years, Lu Changsheng had already spent a lot of time on her.
The Second Grade Talisman Master ceremony was related to presenting Lu Changsheng's skills to the outside world, and that certainly counted as important business.
"Okay, I'll come back as soon as I'm done,"
Lu Changsheng nodded.
Then he visited Lu Miaoge and his son Lu Xianzhi before returning to Qingzhu Mountain.
Back home, Lu Changsheng chatted briefly with his wives and children, had a meal, and then headed out to discuss the details of the ceremony with Lu Miaochang.
He also planned to ask for more materials for Second Rank talisman making, to be used in assembling a talisman formation.
"Dad, I have to tell you, I found a treasure."
At that moment, his son Lu Qingshan came trotting over to Lu Changsheng's side, speaking mysteriously.
"A treasure? What kind of treasure?"
Lu Changsheng, seeing how secretive his son was acting, arched an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
"Hehe, let me show you."
Lu Qingshan grinned, pulling out a golden bean the size of a chicken egg from inside his clothes.
This golden bean even had a tiny sprout growing from it.
The sprout was green and tender, with a few jade-like leaves on it.
"How did you dig up the golden bean from my yard!"
Lu Changsheng stared at the bean in his son's hand, taken aback, and spoke out.
This golden bean was, in fact, the Golden Armor Bean Mother he had planted in his own yard.
"Dad, you planted this treasure?"
When Lu Qingshan heard this, he also froze, and with a guilty conscience, stammered out his response.
He had thought the golden bean was a chance treasure he had found.
He never expected it to be something his own father had planted.
"What else?"
"If you're going to find treasures, you should go out and look for them, not dig up treasures from your own yard,"
Lu Changsheng said irritably, giving his son's head a tap.
The Golden Armor Bean Mother was just fine growing in his yard, and here his son had dug it up thinking it was a treasure; it was both exasperating and amusing.
"How did you find this bean?"
Lu Changsheng asked.
Nobody other than Lu Miaoyun, Qu Zhenzhen, and a few others would go into the yard.
The kids usually didn't play there either.
Plus, this Golden Armor Bean Mother was planted in a corner of the yard, concealed by Spiritual Earth.
"I asked Xiao Jin to find treasures, and then he found this golden bean."
"When I saw this golden bean, I felt an inexplicable closeness to it; I thought it was the destined treasure you read about in books,"
Lu Qingshan held his head with both hands, looking somewhat aggrieved.
He was saddened that the opportunity he thought he had was now gone.
He had been so elated earlier today.
Now that elation was for nothing.
"Xiao Jin."
Lu Changsheng naturally knew that Xiao Jin was the Earth Spirit Mouse he had given to Lu Qingzhu.
Lu Qingzhu, keeping this Earth Spirit Mouse, usually just played and cuddled with it.
And since Lu Qingshan heard that this creature could find treasures, he probably got it to search for treasures.
Resulting in a search that led to his own yard.
After figuring out what had happened, Lu Changsheng was somewhat speechless.
But hearing that Lu Qingshan felt close to the bean, he couldn't help but ask, "Qingshan, you said you felt close to this golden bean?"
"Yeah, so when I first saw this golden bean, I felt inexplicably drawn to it. I thought my lucky break had come,"
Lu Qingshan replied listlessly.
"Close to it?"
"Could it be because of the Gengjin Body Constitution?"
Lu Changsheng pondered upon hearing this.
The Golden Armor Bean Mother could transform into a Golden Armor Warrior.
This Golden Armor Warrior was of the metal element, so it made sense for it to attract someone with a Gengjin Body Constitution.
He held the Golden Armor Bean Mother in his hand, focusing on it intently.
Indeed, he could faintly sense a closeness.
But since he had won the Golden Armor Bean Mother from the system, it was already connected to him.
So he hadn't noticed the subtle attraction caused by the Gengjin Body Constitution.
"This golden bean was planted by dad in our yard,"
"After planting, it can blossom and bear Spiritual Beans,"
"Look, this is the bean's sprout, and these are the bean's leaves. In a few more years, the bean will flower and bear fruit,"
"After the beans bear fruit, dad will give you one,"
Lu Changsheng said aloud.
He didn't blame his son.
"Dad, how many little beans can this golden bean produce at one time?"
Lu Qingshan immediately perked up upon hearing this and asked curiously.
"It can produce five to ten, but the actual number will depend on how it's nurtured,"
"Like your habit of digging it up, that will affect the number of beans it can bear later on,"
Lu Changsheng threw a glance at his son and remarked.
Although it was nourished by the tricolored soil, looking at the bean right now, he estimated that it could probably yield only seven or eight beans.
Getting a full ten would be tough.
"Then, dad, give me two extra beans, right? I'll give one to Sister Qingzhu when the time comes,"
Lu Qingshan immediately chimed in with a laugh.
"Willing to share the good stuff, huh? Alright, I'll give you two extra, and I'll give one to Qingsong too,"
Lu Changsheng replied with a chuckle.
Lu Qingsong was Lu Miaohuan's second son, Lu Qingshan's younger brother.
"Dad, when will this golden bean bear fruit?"
Lu Qingshan continued to inquire.
"By the time you're nearly grown up, this golden bean should be able to bear fruit,"
Lu Changsheng answered.
"Dad, I'm seven years old; I'm an adult now!"
Lu Qingshan puffed out his chest proudly and exclaimed.
"By the time you're fifteen, this bean should be able to bear fruit,"
Lu Changsheng looked at his son, who was only about one meter tall, and chuckled.
The Golden Armor Bean Mother takes three years to germinate, three years to grow leaves, three years to flower, and three years to produce fruit.
But with the nourishment of the tricolored soil, this growth rate was significantly accelerated.
