Chapter 13: The Little River, That Love
The rest of the time, Xie Yuen underwent an aptitude test.
After testing in the four directions of strength, intelligence, and physical acumen, it was concluded that he excelled in every aspect, but he did not master the use of any of them.
Old man Yang came to the conclusion that there was no treasure mountain and it could not be used.
"It seems that before the selection of the Soul Academy, you need to stabilize the realm, and you must also truly master the ability of the Soul Body." Tang Wenhan looked at Xie Yuen and said seriously.
"Brother-in-law, do you want to give me special training?"
"No, I have my own arrangements for this!" Tang Wenhan said and left the basement with Xie Yuen.
"I said, I can provide special training for this kid!"
The old man Yang on the side still didn't give up, and was still trying to win over Xie Yuen.
"No!"
"No!"
The uncle and nephew said in unison, Tang Wenhan was out of his own considerations, while Xie Yuen did not have much affection for the Soul Association, and it was obviously not very clean to be able to collude with the Jia family.
"It's really two uncles and nephews!" Old man Yang could only shake his head helplessly.
On the way back, Xie Yuen told his feelings about today.
"You're saying you've absorbed the energy of the entire energy core?" Tang Wenhan looked at Xie Yuen incredulously.
He and Old Man Yang had always thought that the consumption of the energy core was due to the natural consumption of the instrument, who would have thought that it would be Xie Yuen who absorbed it.
"Yes!" Xie Yuen raised his right hand as he spoke, only to see that the power of the original red, purple, and gold spirit was now black, and it was so black that it was shiny.
"Do you feel bad?"
"No, it doesn't seem to have changed!"
Tang Wenhan observed for a while, but found nothing, so he had to give up and admonished: "Pay attention to whether there is any abnormality when using the power of the Spiritual Body, and if there is really a problem, tell me in advance!" β
"Okay!" Xie Yuen nodded, still having doubts in his heart, and asked, "Little brother-in-law, what ......is my ability?"
"It's the first time I've encountered that ability of yours, so you can only explore it slowly by yourself!"
"Hmmm! Brother-in-law, why does the Soul Association have an office location, and it still cooperates with the Jia family to develop the community we live in? β
Tang Wenhan paused for a moment and explained: "In recent years, there have been frequent spiritual source white holes or black holes in Tengshi, although the power is not great and the impact is not great, but this also indicates that it is becoming more and more unsafe. β
"Not safe?" Xie Yuen frowned, recalling the power of the otherworldly evil spirits, and his heart was always uneasy, "Could it be that there will be a large number of otherworldly evil spirits attacking?" β
"Over the years, every place where spiritual power has recovered has to go through a spiritual source white hole and a black hole, and this is just the beginning!"
Listening to Tang Wenhan's words, Xie Yuen continued to ask: "Are you saying that Tengshi's spiritual power will be even stronger?" β
"Yes!"
"But the effectiveness of human beings in using spiritual power doesn't seem to be high!"
"This is also the reason why Teng City needs to build a Corpse Management Center, and when the time comes, the Corpse Association will arrange a magic circle, and will also provide cultivation instruments and pills to help the Corpse!"
Xie Yuen finally understood why there were not many corpses in Teng City, and there was already a building of the Corpse Association, but the community where they lived was still demolished, and it seemed that this was the reason.
"Is the help of the Corpse Guild unconditional?"
"How is that possible?" Tang Wenhan sneered, "You are too naΓ―ve, how can there be a free lunch in the world, if you want to use these resources, the corpse has to exchange points, and the points can only be taken from the association's side." β
This reminded Xie Yuen that what the person who passed on himself just now, registering and receiving tasks, should be what he said.
It can be seen that the association can easily control the spiritual cardinals of the world.
But after thinking about it, without a big background and big forces, he couldn't win enough cultivation resources on his own.
This comes down to what Tang Wenhan said before, the corpse can't escape the word "fight", and if you don't fight, you will be eliminated by others.
When the two returned home, Liang Wanlin's mother and daughter were waiting anxiously, and they were relieved to see that the two were safe and sound.
Perhaps thinking about it, Liang Wanlin took the initiative to step forward and hugged Xie Yuen in her arms.
"Auntie is very useless, I really can't protect you!"
Listening to Auntie's words and feeling her low mood, Xie Yuen was moved in her heart, and Auntie put herself first everywhere.
"Auntie, I've grown up, it's time for me to protect you!"
"Okay, let Yuen protect my aunt in the future!" Liang Wanlin's tears still flowed, "Your brother-in-law is right, you have grown up, you should choose what path to take, it's just ......"
Seeing that her aunt was crying, Xie Yuen hurriedly promised: "Don't worry, auntie, I will take care of myself, and I promise not to be impulsive and take risks!" β
"As long as you're good, I'll be worthy of my sister!"
Speaking of his mother, Xie Yuen was curious, and hurriedly asked, "Auntie, my parents are also spiritual corpses, right?" β
"Yes, my sister is the first Nexus in the village, and the whole village is proud of her, and she has done a lot for the village. I don't know the world of the Corpse, I just know that it is extremely dangerous, she was only 26 years old that year, and you are only a few months old! β
"How did my mother die?" Xie Yuen hurriedly asked.
"I don't know, the last time I saw my sister was just a cold urn." Liang Wanlin began to sobb in a low voice, stroking Xie Yuen's face, her eyes were empty, "Your eyes are exactly the same as my sister's." β
"What about my dad?"
"Your dad?" Liang Wanlin sighed helplessly, "Hey, his urn was sent with your mother, I don't know his name, and I haven't seen his appearance."
"However, I know that my sister and your father have a very good relationship, and my sister called your father Dr. Xie in the letter, saying that he is an excellent person, a person in charge, a person with great love, and full of happiness......"
Xie Yuen listened, and there seemed to be two people in front of him, they snuggled up to each other, strolling under the sunset, holding a toddler, what a heartwarming scene, but everything was just a fantasy.
"Where are they buried?" Xie Yuen remembered that the aunt never mentioned her parents, nor did she take herself to sweep the tomb.
"My sister liked the river in her hometown when she was alive, and she said that she would like to play in the river for the rest of her life, so I took it upon myself and sprinkled their ashes in the river in front of the village, Yuen, don't blame my aunt!"
Xie Yuen was stunned for a moment, he finally understood why every year during Qingming, his aunt would take the whole family to the river to go on a trip, it turned out to be to pay tribute to his parents, and he had accompanied his parents for so many years, and he didn't know until this time.
"Auntie, maybe when you return to your hometown, back to the little river you loved since childhood, your mother can really rest in peace."
The two wiped away each other's tears, looked at each other and smiled, and the knot in their hearts was opened.
"Actually, my aunt knows that sooner or later you will have to follow your sister's path, I just hope that I will come later that day and accompany you more."
"Thank you, auntie!" I am sincerely grateful, in Xie Yuen's heart, my aunt far surpasses my mother.
"Promise my aunt one thing!"
"Auntie, you say!"
"Auntie knows, you will definitely investigate the cause of your sister's death next, and you will also think about avenging them, Auntie will not stop you, but you have to ensure your own safety, if you can't do anything, then come back, I don't think my sister will blame you, she only hopes that you can be healthy."
"Okay, I promise you!"
If nothing else, just for the love of my aunt, Xie Yuen will be good.
