19. Broken Soul Stones
Nineteen broken spirit stones
After the Spring Festival holiday, Yuan Ye was also discharged from the hospital, although the spirit seed in her body kept releasing cool to repair her scalded face, but after the scalded water blistered down, the whole face and neck were still covered with large and small scabs.
Knowing that his current dignity must be ugly, Yuan Ye didn't block himself, and simply didn't look in the mirror once.
Yu Xiaorou bought a hat, scarf, mask, and sunglasses for Yuan Ye, and Yuan Ye wrapped herself tightly and left the hospital.
It has snowed heavily for many days in a row, and the entire Drifting Cloud City is covered in snow, and the snow in the places that have not been swept has reached knees.
As soon as he entered the Lingering Fragrance Garden, Yuan Ye was immediately called to the Peach Blossom Courtyard.
The snow and ice outside the house were bitterly cold, and the house was as warm as spring, and the fragrant rain bell sat at the table drinking warm tea, Xiao Ding stood next to help refill the teapot on the tea stove, and on the table was the familiar spirit stone - the stone she tested for the first time in the garden.
Do you want to test again? It's not right, Liuxiang Yuling said that Liuxiangyuan has to test all personnel once a year, why is she only called to test alone?
Liuxiang Yuling shouted: "Yuan Ye, come, put your hand on the spirit stone." ”
No matter why you have to test yourself alone, first absorb the spiritual energy in this stone. As soon as she entered the door, Yuan Ye saw that the soft energy in the stone was flowing slowly, and she felt that the spirit seed in her body became excited the moment she saw the stone, and it turned faster, as if urging Yuan Ye to quickly suck the stone dry.
Yuan Ye stretched out his hand and pressed on the stone, and the spiritual energy of the body entered the stone little by little along the heat transfer, and the stone instantly lit up with green light, and the green light at this time seemed to be a little brighter than when she first entered the garden for testing. In the next second, as the rotation of the spirit seed in the Primordial Leaf Dantian accelerated, the spiritual energy in the stone began to flow into the Primordial Leaf's body, and the speed became faster and faster. Yuan Ye clearly felt and saw that the refreshing and cool spiritual energy flowed into his body through the hand that was pressed on the stone, flowing along the meridians to the dantian, and was absorbed by the spirit seed.
The stone's screams sounded in Yuan Ye's mind, and he wanted to bounce Yuan Ye's hand away, but Yuan Ye was already prepared, and his hand was firmly pressed on the stone.
Liuxiang Yuling looked at the dark green light emitted by the stone, and didn't know what to think, and didn't let Yuan Ye take his hand. Taking advantage of the time when she was in a daze, Yuan Ye absorbed the spiritual energy in the spirit measuring stone, and the green light emitted by the spirit measuring stone became more and more dim, until it completely disappeared, and many cracks spread out on the surface of the stone at a speed visible to the naked eye, more and more cracks, bigger and bigger, and at the same time there was a clicking sound, but in a quarter of an hour, a spirit stone with an intact hardness comparable to Hetian jade was broken, and the rotten one could not be rotten again, turning into a pile of powder piled on the table.
Liuxiang Yuling and Xiaoding were stunned and dumbfounded, staring at the pile of powder with wide eyes, as if they had been immobilized. Yuan Ye was also shocked, she didn't expect that the spirit stone that had sucked up the spiritual energy would turn into a pile of powder, but compared to the two of them, she knew a little more, she at least knew that the spiritual energy in the stone was a factor.
"Sister Yuling, this ......" Xiao Ding finally recovered a little clear, but his mouth was not good, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
After all, Liuxiang Yuling had more experience, so he first came down and said, "You go to the warehouse and get another spirit stone." ”
Xiao Ding went to fetch the spirit stone, and Liuxiang Yuling beckoned Yuan Ye to sit down: "Yuan Ye, are you still willing to continue to work in Liuxiang Garden?" ”
These days, a lot of changes have taken place in Yuan Ye's body, the eyes can see things that were invisible before, the nose can smell things that could not be smelled before, the spirit seeds in the dantian, these strange and unbelievable phenomena, the answer can only be found in this Liuxiang family, she wants to know the answer, so she has to stay. So Yuan Ye nodded and said, "Sister Yuling, I want to stay in Liuxiangyuan, but can you help me change my job and stop being in Yixiangxuan?" ”
Liuxiang Yuling said: "If the test proves that you still have a spirit seed, I will arrange for you to do other jobs." If you don't have a spiritual seed, you can't stay in the Lingering Fragrance Garden. But don't worry, I can help you arrange a job in Liuxiang Park, or give you a sum of money that is enough for you to survive in this life, and you can also go to live where you want to go. ”
"Do all the apprentice helpers have to test the spirit seed, or just my spirit seed?" Yuan Ye asked his doubts.
"This time it's just for you to test, the Lingering Fragrance Garden can't accommodate people who don't have a spirit seed in it, in addition to a spirit jade test per person every year, people with special conditions have to undergo an additional test, you bite in the Lingering Fragrance Garden, which is considered crazy by many people, and has lost the spirit seed, so you have to be tested separately." Liuxiang Yuling patiently explained to the original leaves.
"But when I pressed the stone just now, didn't it glow? Why did it crumble into a pile of powder? Haraha asked pretentiously.
Liuxiang Yuling shook his head and said, "I don't know what's going on, after I finish testing it for you, I'll go to the inner garden and ask the patriarch what is the reason why the spirit stone shattered into powder." ”
Yuan Ye nodded, but he was a little worried in his heart, would the patriarch of the Liuxiang family see that she had absorbed the spiritual energy in the spirit measuring stone?
Xiao Ding hadn't come back yet, Yuan Ye hurriedly asked: "Sister Yuling, what kind of stone is that spirit measuring stone, it will actually glow when people touch it, it must be very precious, right?" ”
"Not everyone glows to the touch," Ryuling corrected, "People without spirit seeds don't glow to the touch." As for what kind of stones, I don't know, these stones are left by the ancestors of the Liuxiang family, some are similar to jade, and they are called spirit jade, because it can test the spirit seed, and it is also called the spirit stone. Except for the spirit test, it is useless, since I can remember, the spirit test stone has never been broken, let alone broken into powder like today, it is a non-consumable item, and it is not particularly precious. ”
Xiao Ding brought another spirit measuring stone, although he really wanted to absorb the spiritual energy in this spiritual measuring stone, but he didn't know what the consequences of continuously breaking the spiritual measuring stone would be, Yuan Ye held back, and when he saw that the spiritual energy in the stone was very thin, he took away the hand that was pressed on the stone. The stone trembled slightly, as if relieved.
After confirming that the original leaf indeed had a spirit seed, Liuxiang Yuling said: "You go back to the grape courtyard to rest first, I will think about where to place you, before you settle a new job, you don't have to go to Yixiangxuan." ”
Liuxiang Yuling said that he didn't need to go to Yixiangxuan, which meant that Yuan Ye didn't have to go to Yixiangxuan to work. But part of the brain circuit of the original leaf is determined by her own stomach, so she asked, "What do I do when I eat?" ”
Liuxiang Yuling was stunned for a moment before saying: "I didn't expect this, I went to eat as usual when I ate." Maybe she was too worried, the average girl is disfigured like this, even if she doesn't want to die or live, she will hide at home and be depressed and refuse to go out again, washing her face with tears every day, but this girl, the first thing that comes to mind is the problem of eating. This saves her from searching her stomach and looking for comforting words.
