Chapter 41: The Clan Test
Seeing that the patriarch already knew the result, Murong Yi stopped hesitating and walked into the courtyard, "Patriarch, the fifth young master will not come back, saying that he may come back when the clan test." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Alas, that bastard second child claims that Lan'er is a rebel, and I think he is a rebel. Murong Ying was clear about what happened to Murong Lan, "You go, lock up that rebel, don't come out if Lan'er doesn't come back." Murong Ying thought of the stupid thing that the second son had done, and his anger swelled up, and he said viciously.
"Don't, patriarch, it's the New Year soon, and the fifth young master asked me to bring you back a pill, saying that it was for you to take it immediately. After speaking, he handed the jade box to Murong Ying.
"What kind of elixir, did Lan Er say it?"
"Baluo Pill, as for the medicinal effect, the fifth young master didn't say it. Murong Yi repeated what Murong Lan said to Murong Ying word for word.
"Oh, that's right. Murong Ying understood in her heart that she didn't say that the effect of the medicine must be because this pill was very valuable, so valuable that she didn't trust Murong Yi, "Then you go down, my grandson wants me to eat it now, then I will take it now." With that, he got up and went back to the house. After closing the door of the house, he was still not at ease, and when he walked to the secret room again, Murong Ying was relieved, came to the center of the ground, sat down cross-legged, and took out the jade box.
As soon as the jade box was opened, a fragrance quickly gushed out, and the smell made people feel clear, Murong Ying was shocked, "I have built a foundation, this elixir just smells the fragrance and makes me feel the spiritual power surging in my body, what kind of elixir is this?" "Drink!" A huge amount of power formed in his body, and the sudden appearance of spiritual power made Murong Ying exclaim, "It's so strong!" Don't dare to delay, hurry up to refine the medicinal power.
This Eight Luo Pill is the elixir that Murong Lan found from the Na Dan book that can effectively improve the level of the spirit man, of course, there are better pills recorded in the book, but at the moment, only this Eight Luo Pill can be gathered and refined. Murong Ying's refining took more than a month, and he didn't come forward in the New Year's Festival, but what made him happy was that the effectiveness of the pill was basically not wasted, and now he had been promoted to the fourth layer of the foundation.
In the past month, Murong Lan has also lived a very calm life, practicing combat skills from time to time, or deducing exercises, more often than not, he was urged by Qin Shang to alchemy, and even once Murong Lan kicked Qin Shang out of the tea room because Qin Shang urged him too tightly. Afterwards, it was Su Yan who gave advice, Qin Shang brought a set of soft chairs, and Murong Lan opened the furnace again this time.
After the New Year's Festival, it will be the Murong family's five-year clan test in a few days, and the clan test has a long history in the Murong family, and it is said that it can last for hundreds of years. The day before the clan test, Murong Ying came to the tea room in person.
"Grandpa, why are you here!" Murong Lan came to Murong Ying in three steps and two steps.
"I'm not coming, can you go back?" Murong Ying pretended to be angry.
"Grandpa, don't pretend, it's time to upgrade your rank. Murong Lan didn't see it, sat down with his ass, and exposed the old man.
"You stinky boy, you have this elixir, why don't you give it to me earlier. Murong Ying couldn't hide it, so she smiled and scolded with a smile.
"Patriarch Murong, you have wronged him, and on the second day of the refining of the Eight Luo Pills, the great butler will come to the door. Su Yan on the side said as she poured tea for Murong Ying.
"Refining, who refined?" Murong Ying looked at Su Yan and thought to herself, could it be that the Su family is here?
"Him. Su Yan glanced at Murong Lan with her eyes, her eyes full of pride.
"He?!Lan'er?!" Murong Ying took a sip of tea and sprayed it on his grandson's face, "Ahem, you said he would do alchemy?!"
"Grandpa, why are you so uncalm. Murong Lan wiped her face depressedly.
"Don't talk about that," Murong Ying slapped his palm on Murong Lan's head, "Tell me what's going on?" After asking this, he didn't expect that Murong Lan would fly out of the tearoom directly under his own slap.
"This," this scene stunned everyone, and they were all wondering in their hearts, "What is this old man going to do?"
"I didn't use my strength!" Murong Ying said as she looked at her hand blankly.
"Patriarch Murong, Lan did it on purpose. It seems that he didn't want to talk about this, so he took advantage of your slap to get out. ”
"Ah, stinky boy. After Murong Ying understood the truth of the matter, she walked out of the tea room, and sure enough, when she saw Murong Lan swaggering around the street, she was even more angry, and directly rushed away from the pedestrians on the street and grabbed Murong Lan. Murong Lan didn't think that Su Yan would 'betray' him repeatedly, and when he realized that it was too late, he was taken away by Murong Ying like a chicken. "Ah, grandpa, why are you like this, you already knew that this would not give you a promotion. "Stop talking nonsense, go back with me!" The grandfather and grandson made a fuss all the way back to Murong Mansion.
"What do you ask me to come back for, I don't have a place to live!" Murong Lan said the last excuse.
"You live with me!" Murong Ying was willing to let him go, and directly escorted Murong Lan to his courtyard, "Tomorrow clan test, you will stay with me tonight." Murong Lan saw that the matter had come to this point, so he had to accept his fate. But this night, Murong Ying asked Murong Lan about alchemy no less than a hundred times, and Murong Lan began to pretend to have amnesia, then pretended to be stupid, and finally ignored Murong Ying at all. Murong Ying had no choice but to give up, but Murong Lan was not allowed to walk out of the house.
On the second day, Murong Ying escorted Murong Lan to the school martial arts field, where the martial arts arena had already been set up. The descendants of the Murong family had all arrived, and when they saw the patriarch bringing Murong Lan over, they were first surprised, and then they each had their own thoughts. Murong Ying shook her hand and threw Murong Lan behind Murong Zhan, but the father and son didn't look at each other, Murong Lan still sat on the chair under the pressure of her mother, "It's all here, don't go yet, if you can get the first, my mother will give you a treasure you urgently need." After hearing this, Murong Lan guessed in his heart, "Mother, what is there that I urgently need?" This curiosity made him sit down peacefully.
Murong Ying saw Murong Lan sitting down quietly, the stone in her heart finally fell, and she said, "The Murong family's five-year clan test is ...... now."
"Brother Murong, let's observe your family's clan test, I don't know if you are welcome or not?" Before Murong Ying finished speaking, a calm voice came from afar, and from a distance, it was actually the city lord Li Rong. Li Rong was followed by a few people, and it was the other two families: Su Zhan, the patriarch of the Su family, with Su Yan behind him, and the patriarch Wang Qiao, followed by Wang Bing and another young man.
"City Lord Li is here, and he is far away, and the other two old friends are also free to come, which is really face-saving. Murong Ying stepped forward to greet him as he spoke, "Come, take a seat!" The group followed Murong Ying to the position above the ring and sat down, and after chatting for a while, Murong Ying announced the start of the clan test.
The clan test first draws lots for the younger generation of contestants to select their opponents, and then goes up layer by layer to determine the champion and rank them. This is followed by a challenge by the members of the lineage, and if the challenge is successful, the rank of the lineage is inherited by the victorious. Until no one challenges it, the top three in the end can try to obtain the Murong family's divine weapon, the giant sword, which has not been raised for many years. Legend has it that the last time someone lifted it was because a strong enemy attacked the door, and the Murong family only lifted a huge gap to advance and retreat from a strong enemy, but in the end they died of exhaustion. That huge gap was inserted in the place where genius fell, and no one has lifted it so far.
