Chapter 87 [Behind the Intercept]

When Luo Yangde and Luo Zifeng and his son were sitting in front of Luo Xiao sincerely and told the whole story, it had been a whole day and a night since the incident happened.

Suddenly, so many people were killed or injured, which was a serious case for the "Dongjiang City" where the incident occurred. Fortunately, the matter was quite "simple": a group of robbers attacked this team that seemed to be rich in oil and caused serious casualties. Fortunately, there was a hidden warrior in the team who took a counterattack and all the robbers were killed.

Such a documentary seems to be quite harmonious. As for more details, among the bandits, there is a well-known sixth-level early-stage wild samurai "Snake Halberd" She Qingzhu, but the one who killed him was an unknown wild samurai. Why is an ordinary team involved the level of a samurai, etc.... These things were finally suppressed after Luo Yangde reported his name and spilled out his money.

In fact, the Luo family and his son were angry. They first plotted and then intercepted them, and killed them all, causing most of the casualties of the servants. No one could swallow this... However, they obviously had some concerns and did not want to make a fuss. When asked about Luo Xiao's opinion, they were surprised to find that Luo Xiao also asked them to press the matter and not involve themselves.

Luo Yangde has not been in vain for decades. He immediately realized that Luo Xiao's identity was probably a problem and did not hesitate to do so. If the father and son had just been grateful for the other party's gift of medicine to extend their lives, then Luo Xiao now, whether it was saving their father and son's lives from three killers or the sixth-level warrior, was enough to treat each other with a respectful attitude.

"We are the side branch of Luo's clan in the Jingji community. A hundred years ago, Cheng Zhanggong, the seventh-generation ancestor of the Luo family, was just a commoner. Cheng Zhanggong was extremely talented and was promoted to a warrior in just seven years after becoming a disciple of the Xiuwu Temple in Shengjing. Because he was highly appreciated by the Supreme Court of the Court, he became a guard and later became the commander of the guards, and was able to give land and houses to the West Assistant of the Jingji community. Cheng Zhanggong was eventually retired as the chief tutor of the above-mentioned court, and at that time he was already the strength of the Qinglong warrior..."

Luo Yangde first told the glorious history of his ancestors. He was so excited and excited that the process was a bit longer.

Luo Xiao could understand this kind of feeling and listened patiently.

"Under the protection of Mr. Chengzhang, my Luo family has grown up with branches and leaves, with descendants spread all over the capital, Qijiang, Yunzhou, Nanping counties, and even one branch is distributed in Xinghai Country..."

Luo Xiao nodded and understood in his heart that Luo Yangde was one of Yunzhou.

"Mr. Chengzhang revived the Luo family, causing the Luo family to grow from a mere three households, a common family, to become a prominent family in the capital and a martial arts family. However... No one of the Luo family has been promoted to a warrior since Mr. Zhang..." Luo Yangde said this, his voice was low, and Luo Zifeng, who was beside him, showed a shameful expression on his face, lowering his head and silent.

After listening for a long time, Luo Xiao couldn't hear anything except the development history of the Luo family, and he couldn't help but feel a little impatient: "Then?"

"Then..." Luo Yangde also heard the young warrior's tone impatient, coughed dryly, and was about to speak.

Luo Zifeng, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Because it involves the warrior system, let me say it. I believe Brother Luo also knows that after a warrior is promoted to a warrior, he can become a scholar as long as he passes the court evaluation and registers the case, and receives rewards for land and houses and spiritual stone resources."

Luo Xiao nodded. Of course he knew this. This was also the ultimate pursuit of almost all disciples of the martial arts temple to practice hard for ten years.

Luo Zifeng whispered: "But the court also stipulates that these rewards can only be inherited by the samurai family. If the contemporary samurai dies and there are no samurai in the descendants, the rewards will be taken back..."

Luo Xiao nodded slowly. As a disciple of the martial arts temple, he still knew this common sense.

In this world, there is a reward. Otherwise, if you only give but not take it, where can you get so many fields and houses in the world? If a family that uses martial arts to become a soldier, it means that the family's strength and heritage are "valued", and it is worthy of the court's pursuit. If one generation is worse than the other, and there is not even a sixth-level warrior, why do you have so much wealth and resources? The court will have certain compensation for the recovery. If it is targeted by other powerful families, it may even swallow the belt and bones.

At this time, Luo Yangde sighed and said, "These are nothing. The court took back only the part that was rewarded at the beginning. What is really hard to give up is the spirit stone resources..."

Luo Xiao vaguely guessed the reason after hearing this. After becoming a registered samurai in the court, those beautiful houses in fertile land were good, but after decades of making a fortune, how could a big family that had been scattered everywhere rely on the original land? Even if they were taken back by the court, it would not be painful and it would not be much loss. What really made the entire family unbearable is the cut off resources.

The spirit stone veins and various high-quality cultivation resources are basically in the hands of the court, and a small number are in the hands of powerful and powerful families with a long history and powerful inheritance. Whether it is a warrior to be promoted to a warrior or a low-level warrior to be advanced to a high-level warrior, they cannot avoid the spirit stones and resources - relying on absorbing the barren and pitiful spiritual energy of heaven and earth, even if they practice until they die, they cannot condense a spirit bud.

Spirit stone resources are distributed to various warriors in the form of monthly salary by the imperial court. The higher the level, the better the quality of the spirit stones and the more resources - if you don’t even have a warrior in your family, then I’m sorry, these things have nothing to do with you.

A family without warriors originally needed these resources the most, hoping to build a samurai with these. However, because there are no warriors in the family, they are not qualified to obtain these resources, which forms a vicious cycle... In the end, the strong will always be strong, the weak will always be weak, the family will prosper with warriors, and they will also be defeated by the lack of warriors.

Therefore, for the current Luo family, they try their best to get a warrior in the family, otherwise the Luo family will be eliminated from the gentry class, gradually decline, and eventually become an ordinary family of Kun. Although the descendants have no worries about food and clothing, their social status has plummeted, which is incomparable to the famous families in the past.

At this time, Luo Yangde finally revealed the real reason for his trip to Beijing: "The Luo family has been in business for many years and has some background. After summoning the family's elders to discuss, the clan leader made up his mind to exchange some of the resources accumulated over the years for a medium-grade spirit stone and a top-grade flesh spirit stone, plus a seven-leaf red jade grass, and prepare to select a Luo family's son who has reached the fifth level and has the most potential to be promoted from each branch of the family, and give the above resources to be promoted to a warrior and revitalize the family..."

So that's it, Luo Xiao now understands it all. Indeed, if a fifth-level perfect warrior can obtain a good thing like a medium-grade spirit stone, a top-grade flesh spirit stone and a seven-leaf red jade grass, the chance of promotion can be increased by 70% or 80%. Of course, this high-end cultivation resource with no market is not only available in the hands of some aristocratic families, except for the royal family. It is not difficult to imagine how much the Luo clan has paid.

It was precisely because of understanding that Luo Xiao could better understand the despair of the Luo family father and son. Being so conspired to restore the family reputation was basically nothing to do with the father and son.

As for the mastermind behind hiring She Qingzhu and the killers, even if the Luo family and son were worried and did not say it out, Luo Xiao could roughly guess according to the basic principle of "who has the motivation and who will benefit from it".

This is someone else's family affairs, or family scandals. Luo Xiao naturally didn't bother to pay attention to it. Just figure out the causes and consequences, and just don't be confused. But he still had the last question: "Since your Luo family doesn't want the branches to take advantage of this, just digest those resources quietly by themselves. It is normal for the Zong family to produce a warrior, and each branch will not be dissatisfied. Why do you have to go through a lot of trouble to summon the children of branches in various places that meet the conditions and then use such means... You won't say that the clan family is not even a fifth-level perfect warrior, right?"

Luo Xiao said something until he said something, and he believed Luo Yangde would understand.

Luo Yangde really understood, smiled bitterly, and said, "The Zong family does have five-level perfect warriors, and there are more than one, but this matter... should have nothing to do with the Zong family."

Looking at Luo Xiao's puzzled expression, Luo Yangde didn't keep it a secret: "The youngest of the fifth-level perfect warriors of the Zong family are already thirty-five. The Luo family's children who are qualified to enter Beijing to compete for promotion resources must be below thirty, and the younger the better."

It turns out that the Zong family really does not meet the requirements. In this way, those who have motivations are probably branches of a certain family.

Luo Xiao thought something and nodded slightly: "This is to make this generation of warriors protect their families for longer..."
