Chapter 30: Family Selection
Mei Han's eyes were fixed on the box made of sealing spirit stones that Mei Jian took out of the storage ring, and his eyes were unswervingly looking forward to it. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
When the lid of the box was opened, his pupils couldn't help shrinking, and brilliant light gushed out from the box, and the light was strong and dazzling.
He fixed his eyes and saw that the light source was a round spar the size of a baby's fist lying in the box, which was a crystal clear spar with wisps of blood inside, and what was even more surprising was that there was always an electric arc on the surface of the spar, and the entire spar exuded an extraordinary aura, and Mei Han's breathing suddenly became short.
"It's ......"
"The crystal nucleus of the Thunder Turtle. The power of thunder and lightning has always been a good thing to stimulate the opening of the Qi Mansion, and this crystal nucleus may be able to solve your problems. It's going to be painful, though. Mei Jian smiled.
The opening of the qi house, if its own condensation is not successful, then only with the help of external force stimulation, thunder and lightning is a good means of stimulation, stimulation and the method of pouring yuan, much gentler, although the success rate is not high, but will not die.
Mei Han nodded, the tip of his nose was slightly red again, he was very moved. He didn't tell the two elder brothers how to use thunder and lightning to stimulate the dantian acupuncture points to open the qi mansion, and he had already tried it two years ago. It still failed. However, the level of this crystal nucleus in front of him is not low, it is even higher than the one he has used before, but he can give it a try.
"This crystal nucleus cost a lot of money. Looking at the two brothers in surprise, Mei Han asked.
"Well, you look down on your brother too much, a few days ago, I stumbled upon the traces of the Xuanlei Turtle in Yuanlei Mountain, so my eldest brother and I hunted it all the way. Hehe, this demon beast was seriously injured at that time, and we picked up a bargain, otherwise we wouldn't dare to ......" Touching his head, Mei Shihan smiled.
"It's a big price. β
"This makes you right, in the end, it is a demon beast with perfect strength, Uncle Turtle is still terrible when he dies, and he almost bit off the eldest brother's arm-"
"Don't talk about this, it's all at the door and you haven't gone in. With a wave of his hand, Mei Jian smiled casually, he deliberately avoided this.
Mei Han was shocked by these words, it turned out that the eldest brother said that he had something to do temporarily to hunt the Xuan Thunder Beast for himself, and he finally understood why the strength of his left arm was very weak when the eldest brother hugged and beat him just now. He lifted the cloth that covered his arm with the plum sword, only to see a hideous scar left on his arm. The suppressed fluctuations in my heart rippled again, and I was even more moved.
"It's okay, all that's left is these scars. Glaring at Mei Shi fiercely, Mei Jian moved his left arm to Mei Han and chuckled. The warrior has a strong recovery ability, but some injuries heal slowly, and there will be scars afterwards.
Then, the three of them walked towards the door together. Enter the Mei Mansion under the respectful greeting of several doormen.
"I heard that you were sent by your father to Lei Yuanshan for healing and training because you were injured by the Shi brothers that day?" asked Mei Han.
"Hey, hey, back, back. The bastard surnamed Shi took the initiative to provoke the eldest brother and insulted you, I was so angry that I took action, and I beat them alone. "Mei Shi said.
"Cut, who asked me for help that day?" Mei Jian pursed his lips and said disdainfully.
"Big brother, don't dismantle my platform. They are two brothers, and there is a group of retinues, and the good hands are hard to beat with two fists, besides, they are all brothers, and you can't come to help me. Third brother, didn't you see it, I threw the rotten rotten eggs at the time, and the two guys in the Shi family were immediately stupid. The whole person became stinky, and he had no intention of fighting, and then he was beaten up by the two of us, and he became a pig's head on the spot. My father was afraid that they would make trouble, so he found this excuse to let me and my eldest brother go to Lei Yuanshan. β
Mei Han's forehead suddenly had a few more black lines, because the "rotten rotten egg" was invented by him three years ago. Not rotten eggs, but balls filled with stinking feces. The "stinky rotten egg" can only be hidden, but it cannot be picked up, and once it is shocked, it will explode, and the stinky feces inside will be sprayed on the other party's body on the spot, and it is impossible to prevent it! I really didn't expect the second brother Mei Shi to use it against people, and he was speechless for a while. The three of them were halfway to the road, and they happened to meet Xiang'er who came to greet them, and the four brothers and sisters gathered together. It's just that after chatting for a long time, Xiang'er turned on a cold face. Because she was "bullied" by Mei Shi again. She really "hates" her second brother, and she will be teased by the other party every time they meet. And when she encounters this situation, she will hide behind Mei Han and look at Mei Jian with innocent and pitiful eyes, Mei Jian will criticize Mei Shi harshly, and Mei Han will comfort Xiang'er with doting and softness. But at this time, Xiang'er was very happy in her heart, holding Mei Han's arm, and gently following the steps of the third brother step by step. This seems to be her greatest wish.
The four brothers and sisters are always laughing and laughing together.
After greeting their father good morning, the four of them ate and played together, and only after lunch did they go back to their lodgings.
......
That night, at Mei Yuanhang's residence, a sudden gust of black wind blew in through the crack in the door, and a trace of black gas swirled around, forming a figure.
This person is Mei Wu.
"How's the news?" Mei Yuanhang seemed to have known about Mei Wu's arrival, and he didn't raise his head while dealing with the family's letters from all sides.
"Qiqi Mansion Master, there is still no news, and I can't find even the slightest clue, this person seems to have evaporated from the world. Mei Wu said with a solemn expression.
Putting down the letterhead in his hand, Mei Yuanhang frowned slightly. The person they investigated was the yin and evil old man who suddenly appeared that day, and the sudden appearance of a master in Stone Forest Town was not an ordinary thing in itself, let alone in such a sensitive period for the three major families.
Since the appearance of this person, the Mei family has begun to investigate this person, but even the huge and complex intelligence network of the Mei family has not found the slightest trace of this old man, and it seems that this person has evaporated from the world.
Sighing lightly, Mei Yuanhang waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, don't investigate this matter, but in the past few days, you have to keep an eye out for any suspicious people who have entered and exited Shilin Town." β
"Yes, Mansion Master!" Mei Wu's body spun rapidly, and then turned into a black wind and left through the crack in the door.
Mei Wu managed the area, but Mei Yuanhang couldn't calm down anymore for some reason, and said in a low voice: "Could it be that they found it?"
......
The Shi family and the Lin family were in a similar situation that night, except that their intelligence department focused more on the Mei family than on the evil old man.
"Let me check, what does the Mei family want to do these days, and what are their intentions?" Shi Dahai ordered with a gloomy fat face, and his flesh trembled.
......
Three days flew by, quietly passing between the eyes closed.
In the past three days, the entire Mei family has become extremely lively, because the family selection held by the Mei family every three years will be held today.
The family selection is not only to test the martial arts skills of the children of the family, but also to motivate the children to work hard, practice hard, and go further in the martial arts.
The selection competition will not only give certain rewards to the top children, but also determine the future direction of their people, excellent children will be trained with all their might, and poor children will be sent to other places to learn to manage the family industry, after all, the continuation of a family can not completely count on genius children, but also need a variety of resources and property.
In the Liwu Continent, a coming-of-age ceremony can be held at the age of sixteen, and for convenience, the Mei family holds a coming-of-age ceremony every three years, when teenagers and girls of the ages of fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen will participate in the coming-of-age ceremony together, and from then on, they will be regarded as truly growing up.
In the past, only 15 to 17-year-olds were allowed to participate in the selection before the coming-of-age ceremony, but this year's event has changed a bit. Because the tournament is held in two stages, the first stage is a baptism competition between the children who need to have a coming-of-age ceremony, and the second stage is a ranking competition between all the children of the family under the age of twenty, which is why so many people suddenly appeared in the Mei Mansion.
The competition venue is arranged in an open field behind the courtyard, and the dense tall trees around it are very suitable for everyone to watch the game.
As the sun rises, there are more and more figures gathered outside the venue, and some people even stand on the trees for a good sight.
Nervous, anxious, or excitedly waiting, the game finally began under the announcement of a red-faced elder. The game first adopts the method of multi-number draw to decide the opponent and decide the opponent.
The red-faced elder flicked his left finger on the storage ring in his right hand, and a piece of glow flew out of the ring, falling between his flat left palm, which was a bamboo tube with twenty or thirty bamboo sticks in it.
After the red-faced elder swept his gaze at all the disciples, he shouted loudly without thinking, "All the baptism disciples have come up to draw lots. The two children with the same number are the opponents of this round. β
There were only twenty or thirty baptism disciples, and when they heard the elder's words, they all stepped forward to draw lots one by one, and then they couldn't wait to see the number of their bamboo sticks, and then glanced at the numbers of others, and couldn't help but want to know who their opponent was. However, they were reluctant to reveal their numbers, so they hid them after seeing the numbers on the bamboo sticks to prevent others from peeking at them.
Mei Han is fifteen years old this year, to be exact, he will be sixteen years old in a short time. He glanced at the "7" on his bamboo stick, and then ignored it, for him, the opponent was the same.
At this time, a light fragrant wind penetrated into the nose, but it was Xiang'er who came over.
"Third brother, I'm number three, what number are you. With a pure and charming smile, Xiang'er unabashedly erected her bamboo sticks in front of Mei Han's eyes.
"I'm number seven. β
"Phewβit's good that we're not on the same page. Patting her breasts, which had grown like a pair of dewy lotuses, Xiang'er said happily.
Gently pinching Xiang'er's tender cheeks, Mei Han smiled.
Mei Han and Xiang'er's intimate behavior made many men envious, but as long as they knew the relationship between the two of them, some of them were only envious and jealous, but at this moment, Mei Han felt a cruel gaze on the side, he turned his head and looked at it, it turned out to be the eldest son of the uncle, Meishan, from the other party's gaze, he could clearly feel contempt and hostility, which made him feel a little inexplicable.
