Chapter 10: Spirit Fruit
The Gujia Distillery received a notice from the inner door, the Gu family and the Long family married, and half a year later, the wine required for the two banquets was provided by the Gujia Distillery.
Hearing that it was Gu Qingyao and Gu Ruyu who were in charge of the inner door to deliver the news, Gu Ruyan couldn't help but feel strange, why did Ruyu's sister come over too? Just as he was strange, he saw a small pink figure rushing out of the door, it was Gu Ruyu, and not far behind was followed by Gu Qingyao, a young man in a white robe.
Gu Ruyu stopped in front of the oncoming Gu Ruyan, and there were beads of sweat on her fair face: "Sister Ruyan, Yu'er has come to see you." After speaking, a neat row of silver teeth was revealed.
Gu Ruyan smiled back, and then looked at Gu Qingyao not far away, the young man was dressed in white, and he couldn't see the expression on his fair face, Gu Ruyan smiled at him, the young man's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded in response.
Gu Qingyao is a distant relative of the Gu family branch, and changed her surname to Gu after taking refuge in the Gu family. At the age of sixteen, he had the cultivation of the eighth layer of Qi cultivation period, and he was the first person of the Gu family's generation with the best qualifications in addition to Gu Ruyu, and he was one of the inner elites that the Gu family focused on cultivating. He is calm and has always been silent.
Gu Ruyu also turned around and smiled at Gu Qingyao, took Gu Ruyan's hand and ran into the house, Gu Qingyao was still standing under the big tree in the courtyard, waiting not far away.
Just after entering the house, Gu Ruyu couldn't wait to get into Gu Ruyan's ear, lowered her voice and said, "Sister Ruyan, Yu'er has something good to give you." Saying that, he took out a delicate storage bag hanging from his waist, Gu Ruyan had seen many monks in the family have such storage bags, and I heard that the memory space was more than three times larger than the inferior storage bag he bought in Xiangyunzhai, so he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Gu Ruyu's storage bag.
I felt a wave of envy in my heart, and I couldn't help but sigh, when will I be able to have such a good thing.
Gu Ruyu untied the storage bag and found a jade box. The jade box opened gently, and a dark red fruit emitted a faint spiritual light. Gu Ruyan's eyes were instantly attracted by the spirit fruit in the jade box.
But his face was just full of disbelief, "This is the spirit fruit?" ”
Gu Ruyu nodded proudly.
Gu Ruyan only felt jealous in her heart, Sister Ruyu actually had a rare spirit fruit in the mortal world.
"For you." Gu Ruyu put the jade box in front of Gu Ruyan with both hands, and smiled sincerely.
"For me?" Gu Ruyan's face was unbelievable.
Gu Ruyu nodded heavily.
Gu Ruyan still felt unbelievable. Spiritual fruits are only available in the immortal cultivation realm, and in the mortal realm where the spiritual energy is thin, there is no fruit with spiritual energy at all, and Ruyu actually wants to give herself such a precious thing?
Gu Ruyu stuffed the jade box into Gu Ruyan's hand, and then said with satisfaction: "Sister Ruyan, don't worry, Ruyu still has a spirit fruit." ”
Gu Ruyan was shocked when she heard this, it was already strange for the spirit fruit to fall into the mortal world, and Sister Ruyu actually took two of them.
As if he knew Gu Ruyan's thoughts, he only heard Gu Ruyu say in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "This spirit fruit is the dowry for the marriage between the Long family and our Gu family, and there are only two in total. Uncle originally only gave me one, but my father pestered him to give me the other one as well. After speaking, his face turned red, and he was a little embarrassed.
How could the second uncle Gu Zhenfeng's temperament be Gu Ruyan, how could he not know, pretending not to see Ruyu's embarrassment, just looking at the spirit fruit, full of joy.
Ruyu comforted her heart when she saw this, Sister Ruyan didn't blame me like this. Busy said again: "I heard that the spirit fruit is delicious, so I secretly begged Brother Qingyao to bring me to you, and I also want you to taste the taste of the spirit fruit." After speaking, he smiled innocently.
Gu Ruyan only felt warm in her heart, holding the jade box tightly with both hands, knowing that even if the second uncle didn't force another spirit fruit, the other spirit fruit would not fall into her hands, but Sister Ruyu, after getting such a good thing, was willing to think about it, and wanted to give it to herself secretly, just to let herself taste the deliciousness of the spirit fruit.
Gu Ruyu saw that Sister Ruyan was just holding the jade box tightly and didn't speak, and she was a little worried in her heart, whether Sister Ruyan would be sad because she was a waste spirit root. I didn't know what to say for a while.
Gu Ruyu's thoughts, how could Gu Ruyan not see it at a glance. Feeling funny, he reached out and poked his sister Gu Ruyu's forehead and said, "What is the silly girl thinking?" ”
Only then did I realize that I was thinking too much, my face was a little embarrassed, and I said angrily: "Sister Ruyan bullied me." After speaking, she ran away coquettishly, and ran out of the yard like a gust of wind, Gu Qingyao glanced at Gu Ruyan, and then turned around and chased after Gu Ruyu.
The thin breeze blew thick bangs, and Gu Ruyan lowered her head slightly, making it impossible to see her expression clearly.
In the evening, Gu Changfu came to pick up Gu Xiaotong, saying that he was going to prepare to go to the inner door tomorrow to test the spiritual root, time flies really fast, in a blink of an eye to the ancient family wine shop is more than half a year, Gu Xiaotong is also six years old, according to the rules of the ancient family, whether it is the ancient family's inner door lineage, or the ancient family's outer door, even if it is a distant relative of the ancient family, as long as it is willing to take refuge in the ancient family, join the ancient family, its descendants can go to the ancient family to test the spiritual root at the age of six, and those within the five spiritual roots can stay in the ancient family's inner door of the Meng school to learn to cultivate immortals. Those who have reached the fifth level of cultivation in the Qi training period before the age of fifteen can continue to accept the resources of the Gu family and cultivate to become the main affairs within the Gu family, while those who have not reached the fifth level of the Qi training period at the age of fifteen will have to leave the Meng School to work in the outer gate of the Gu family and compete for resources for the Gu family.
And Gu Changfu is fully prepared for Gu Xiaotong's future, as if all the hope in his life is in his granddaughter.
Gu Xiaotong was picked up by her grandfather Gu Changfu, and there was only Gu Ruyan left in the small courtyard, Gu Ruyan collected the spiritual fruit, and began to practice cross-legged early, the air was full of aura, and the wisps of it drilled into her body, swimming in the meridians, more and more aura gathered in the dantian, and the five aura masses of different colors around the dantian, white, green, blue, red, and yellow symbolized the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
I only felt that after the aura in the air drilled into the body, it flowed into the aura of different colors along the meridians, and the aura mass became bigger and bigger, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, only to feel a burst of aura riot, more and more aura shuttling in the meridians, the meridians were full of turbulent aura, as if they were about to burst at any time, just when she felt that she was about to bear it, and when the pain came from her body everywhere, she only heard a click, like a part of the body where the bones were shattered, The surrounding aura drilled into his body in a whirlpool, and he didn't know how long it took to regain calm, and the five aura masses of different colors around the dantian each exuded a faint light. Gu Ruyan only felt that his spirit had never been good, and after checking his cultivation, he had broken through the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Qi cultivation period, Gu Ruyan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he casually played a few dust purification techniques to clean up the impurities removed from his body.
The sky was faintly bright, and the sun had not yet risen in the east, glowing white.
Gu Changfu wanted to take Gu Xiaotong to the inner door to measure the spiritual root, Gu Ruyan felt apprehensive, the result of the spiritual root directly determined the future of this girl, I don't know if this girl who has been with her for more than half a year will be valued by the family like all the people in the Mengxue Hall, or will she be given up by the family like herself. There is a trace of sadness when I think about it, I hope she can be luckier than herself.
Because Gu Changfu accompanied Gu Xiaotong to the inner door to measure the spiritual root, the Gu Family Wine Workshop began to be busy with the marriage wine again, and no one took care of Gu Ruyan in the entire Outer Gate Gu Family Wine Workshop. She fell into her own free and studied the spirit fruit that Sister Ruyu gave her in her room. The dark red fruit exudes a faint aura, it's really a good thing, such a good thing, I'm afraid that my father, who is the patriarch of the ancient family, is something that is not easy to see.
The more Gu Ruyan looked, the more he liked it, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt reluctant to eat it in one bite, at least in front of himself, such a good thing was seen once and less once. Thinking about it, I couldn't help sighing, and began to be annoyed by my stinginess again, Sister Ruyu was willing to take out such a good thing and give it to herself, but she was reluctant to even eat it.
After some cranky thinking, I remembered the exquisite storage bag on Gu Ruyu's body, not only the appearance was more exquisite than others, but the internal storage space was also several times larger than my own, and I was envious. She must have put a lot of valuable and novel things in the storage bag, and then thought about her storage bag, in addition to the six lower-grade spirit stones, there were only some mortal baskets or something, and the tools she used before, she couldn't help but sigh.
Thinking of this for a while, he grew so big, in addition to some gold and silver that mortals can use, this spirit fruit given to him by Sister Ruyu is the most valuable, thinking of opening the jade box and carefully taking out the spirit fruit, the spirit fruit exudes a faint alluring aroma, Gu Ruyan picked up the spirit fruit and took a bite hard, the spirit fruit was sweet in the mouth, only felt a trace of spiritual energy down the throat into the body, Gu Ruyan only felt magical, and was busy guiding the spiritual energy brought by the spiritual fruit to flow into the dantian, and merge into the five different colors of the spiritual qi around the dantian, The five-colored aura group instantly began to rotate, inhaling the aura into the vortex little by little, and soon fused with the aura cluster, and the five aura light clusters of different colors felt much brighter than the previous color.
Gu Ruyan was overjoyed in his heart, it turned out that the aura contained in this spirit fruit was so strong.
