Chapter 10: The Fire Stone
Soon, Yu Ran took the reddish stone that he had wrapped in clothes and mud and returned to the gate of Yu's house.
The guards guarding the door saw Yu Ran, and hurriedly shouted respectfully: "Young Master Yu Ran is good!"
Yu Ran nodded to the guard, walked in, and walked directly towards the family's meeting hall. Under normal circumstances, Yu Ran's father, who is also the current head of the Yu family, Yu Lie, will deal with some family affairs in the council hall.
After a while, Yu Ran walked to the front of the Yu family's meeting hall. It's just that now, the door of the council hall is closed, and there is an old man in good spirits standing in front of the door, this old man is the housekeeper of the Yu family, Uncle Mo.
"Uncle Mo, is my father in there now?" Yu Ran asked Uncle Mo respectfully, Uncle Mo has been in the Yu family for decades, and he grew up watching Yu Ran grow up, so Yu Ran has always respected Uncle Mo as much as his elders.
Uncle Mo saw that it was Yu Er, and then he also saw the clothes he was carrying, but he didn't ask much, and said to him with a smile in the corner of his eyes: "It's Young Master Yu Ran, the head of the family is discussing with the elders in the council hall about the relevant matters of the clan ratio in a month. ”
"There is still a month to go to the clan competition, the time is so fast!" Yu Ran said in surprise, the time is indeed passing quickly, and it will be the clan competition soon.
"Yes, because clan is a big matter in the family, no one can be allowed to disturb the discussion, so I sent the old man to guard the door. Uncle Mo replied with a smile.
Yu Ran also smiled and said to Uncle Mo: "With Uncle Mo guarding here, there will definitely be no problem! Then I'll wait here for a while." ”
"Okay, it seems that Young Master Yu Ran's strength has improved a lot recently, and I believe it won't be long before he can reach the ninth order of spiritual energy. ”
Uncle Mo is the housekeeper of the Yu family, but he is also a person with the late stage cultivation of the Gathering Spirit Realm, after all, to manage the Yu family's subordinates well, you still need to have strength to be convincing.
"Hehe...... Yu Ran scratched his head and smiled.
Uncle Mo also looked at Yu Ran with a smile, and encouraged him and said, "Little Master Yu Ran, the clan has to come on!"
Yu Ran said to Uncle Mo with a very firm expression: "Well, Uncle Mo, I will definitely do my best!"
Just as the two of them were talking, the door of the council hall was opened from the inside, and the first to come out was the second elder, his expression was gloomy, and his face seemed to be written that I am not happy at all now, and no one should mess with me! Then several elders also came out one after another, but there was no obvious expression fluctuation on their faces, just as usual. Yu Ran also saw Elder Yu Tian who was guiding the disciples of the Yu family outside the trial ground that time, and it just so happened that Elder Yu Tian also saw Yu Ran, and the two of them glanced at each other and smiled.
Uncle Mo also saw Elder Yu Tian coming out of the council hall, and said to Yu Ran: "This Elder Yu Tian is also very powerful, at a young age, he has the strength of the late stage of the Spirit Gathering Realm, and he may also be one of the powerhouses of the family in the future, so this time he also has the opportunity to participate in the discussion about the clan ratio." ”
Yu Ran could tell from Uncle Mo's words that he had a very high opinion of Elder Yu Tian.
The last person to come out of the council hall was the Great Elder Yu Hai, and Yu Ran stepped forward to greet him: "Hello Great Elder!"
"Oh, yes Ran'er, is today's cultivation over?" the Great Elder asked with a concerned smile on Yu Ran's kind face.
Yu Ran replied, "Yes, Great Elder, I came here to find my father for some business. ”
"Well, that's good, you can go in first, don't be too tired in your usual cultivation, and know how to combine work and rest. After saying that, the Great Elder patted Yu Ran on the shoulder and left with a smile.
After the Great Elder left, Uncle Mo also went to take care of his affairs, and after they all left, Yu Ran took the things in his hand and walked into the hall, and saw Yu Lie sitting alone on a chair leisurely.
"Father. ”
Yu Ran shouted at Yu Lie.
Yu Lie smiled: "Oh, yes, how did you get here today." ”
"Well, father, I'm here to ask you about something, but when I came over just now, I happened to see the second elder walking out of here, what happened?"
Yu Ran asked curiously to Yu Lie.
"It's not that there is a disagreement about the location of the clan's trial, several elders led by the second elder said that they want to go to the Lianyun Mountain Range, but the rest of us feel that it is more suitable to be in the big forest behind Tianfeng City. In the past, the trial site was in that big forest, but this year, I don't know what happened, and the second elder proposed to go to that mountain range. ”
Yu Lie slowly told Yu Ran about the conflict that had occurred during the discussion with the elders just now.
"Is the Lianyun Mountain Range the mountain range that has a lot of spirit beasts and is very likely to have very powerful spirit beasts?"
"That's right, let's not talk about the powerful existence that is very likely to exist, even if it encounters some other spirit beasts, it is very dangerous, I really don't know what the second elder thinks!"
Yu Lie also voiced these concerns.
Spirit beasts are another race other than the human race, they have many different races, it can be said that there are many types, there are powerful spirit beasts, there are weak existences, no matter what, they are collectively called spirit beasts. And above the spirit beasts, there is an existence that surpasses them, and it is for the divine beasts! The divine beasts are powerful enough to suppress all spirit beasts, even if it is a newborn divine beast cub, it can do it. And the lifelong pursuit of all spirit beasts is to take off their spirit bodies and turn into divine bodies. Because of this, their descendants will also benefit immensely, and if the spirit beast wants to evolve into a divine beast, it will have to go through the thunder tribulation, and if it survives, it will be able to be proud, but if it can't survive, it can only be wiped out, this process is called despiritualization!
In short, there are countless races in the world.
......
"It's dangerous. Yu Ran also nodded, "Eh, but, father, are you leaking information to me?" Yu Ran said to Yu Lie with a grin.
Yu Lie chuckled and patted Yu Ran's head: "You kid, what kind of leak is this!By the way, what is the matter with you coming to me?" Yu Lie also remembered that Yu Ran came to talk to him about something, and before he could say anything, he had already said a lot of things.
"I almost forgot about it, Father, you see. Yu Ran patted his head, and then handed the clothes in his hand to Yu Lie.
"What is this?clothes?" Yu Lie was confused by the clothes that Yu Ran took out.
"No!" Yu Ran said as he unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the stone that shimmered red.
"Father, what the hell is this?" Yu Ran asked Yu Lie with a puzzled expression.
When Yu Lie saw the stone shining red, he was very excited, and his speech was a little incoherent, "This...... This ...... Where, where did you find this?"
"I found this thing in the back mountain where I was cultivating, and it burned me at the time. As he spoke, Yu Ran also showed Yu Lie the finger that was burned at that time.
Then, Yu Ran repeated to Yu Lie what happened in the back mountain at that time.
After listening to Yu Ran's narration, Yu Lie said excitedly: "Ran'er, this is a Huoyang Stone! This piece of Huoyang Stone you found shows that there is very likely to be a Huoyang Stone vein in the back mountain, if this thing is sold, then our annual income will increase dozens of times!"
The more Yu Lie spoke, the more excited he became, and he almost danced excitedly.
Yu Ran asked puzzledly: "Father, is the Huoyang Stone really so valuable, can it multiply our income dozens of times a year?" Yu Ran knew that the Yu family also had an income of more than 100,000 spirit coins a year, and this Huoyang Stone could increase the income of the Yu family dozens of times, isn't that more than 1 million spirit coins, Yu Ran was a little confused, more than 1 million a year, in the city around Tianfeng City, only so many families can have it.
Yu Lie explained to him: "Although this Huoyang Stone is not very valuable, the Huoyuan Pill that can be refined as a raw material is very precious, if this Huoyang Stone can be sold, it can be refined into Huoyuan Dan by those alchemists." And a Fire Yuan Pill requires a hundred Huoyang Stones to be refined, and if there is a whole vein of Huoyang Stone in the back mountain, then you say it is worthless!"
"Oh, that's the case!" Yu Ran listened, and then suddenly realized, if this is the case, this is too valuable!
"So, you should know the value of this fire stone by now!"
Yu Ran nodded violently: "Well, father, I know!"
"Hurry up, Ran'er, hurry up and take me to see if there is really a vein of Huoyang Stone, this is a big deal!" Yu Lie said anxiously, eager to fly to the back mountain to find out.
"Yes, Father. ”
Yu Ran and Yu Lie went straight to the deep pit where they found the Huoyang Stone in the back mountain.
