Volume 1: Modern Rebirth Chapter 27 The Eve of the Showdown
"Tong Tong, you just said that the fourth-level spirit grass-" Yan Feiyue suspected that she had misheard it just now.
Qi Guanyu grabbed Yan Feiyue's hand, shook his head gently, signaling that it was not appropriate to discuss this matter now, and then said to Tong Yi: "Just absorb it directly." β
"Okay, then I'll dig it out and clean it up, you're using it." After Tong Yi finished speaking, she said apologetically to Yan Feiyue: "Ah Yue, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you, it was-"
"I know, I know, if you can say it, you will say it." Yan Feiyue hurriedly spoke, she didn't want to see Tong Tong's self-blaming eyes, how could she not know the entanglement in her heart.
Tong Yi was relieved, took out the tools prepared in advance, and began to dig up the medicinal materials, peeling off the surface of the land little by little, revealing the roots inside, and then digging out the entire Bailou roots, cleaning up the dead branches and leaves, and then cleaning the soil attached to the plants, and finally handing it over to Qi Guanyu.
"Do you need me to recuse myself?" Tong Yi looked at the two people sitting on the ground in front of her, and asked uncertainly.
"No needβ" Qi Guanyu and Yan Feiyue said at the same time, and then looked at each other and smiled.
"Then I'll not bother you, you guys start!" Tong Yi couldn't help but retreat to the side, waiting intently.
Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu faced each other, sitting cross-legged, with the elixir in the middle, the two of them shot at the same time, using spiritual power to hold up the spiritual grass, and then Qi Guanyu began to absorb the medicinal power in the spiritual grass, and Yan Feiyue continued to output spiritual power to the spiritual grass for Qi Guanyu to absorb together.
Although Tong Yi couldn't see the change in the aura between Ah Yue and Guan Yu on the side, he could see that the spirit grass changed from vivid green to dry brown little by little, and finally the branches turned into powder and was absorbed by Qi Guanyu, which took more than an hour.
And after Yan Feiyue helped Qi Guanyu absorb the medicinal power, she was a little physically exhausted, and she was busy absorbing the newly obtained spirit beads today, and only recovered some, and then spent it in silent waiting with Tong Yi.
Qi Guanyu began to transform the medicinal power in his body by himself, crushing the spiritual roots in the dantian into powder, and slowly condensing them through the medicinal power, until all the powder condensed into broken roots one by one, and the transformation of the medicinal power was completed.
When Qi Guanyu opened his eyes, he saw Ah Yue and Tong Yi sitting together, sleeping dimly, raising his eyes to look out the window, it turned out to be dusk.
"Ah Yue, Tong Yi, wake up." Qi Guanyu saw that the two of them had no intention of waking up, so he could only remind him loudly.
Tong Yi's consciousness was shallow, Qi Guanyu woke up when she screamed for the first time, and Ah Yue was still sleeping happily on her shoulder, so she could only shake it lightly and said: "Ah Yue, it's time to get up, your official is fine!" β
Yan Feiyue woke up leisurely under the attack of the two, but her sleepy eyes were still hazy, and she was puzzled: "Why did I sleep so soundly!" β
"Surrounded by aura and nourished by medicinal power, you naturally sleep soundly!" Qi Guanyu tapped the girl's little nose a little funny, it was really cheap and good.
"Let's go, we can go back to the villa for dinner." As soon as Qi Guanyu reminded them, the two sisters felt very hungry, and only then did they remember the purpose of their trip, and asked in unison:
"Official, how are you feeling?"
"Guan Yu, how are you feeling?"
"It's much better than before, you can see it when you look at my complexion." Qi Guanyu replied.
Qi Guanyu's complexion has indeed changed significantly, not as pale as before, and there is no sense of vanity of excessive tonic before.
"Official, there is still a long way to go, we must always have hope, you have to have confidence like me." Yan Feiyue held Qi Guanyu in her arms, puffed up her small chest, and was very happy.
After this incident, Tong Yi has determined that Qi Guanyu's illness is a broken spiritual root, so he is the person their family is looking for. It's just that she was the only one present at this time, and she wanted to say it but couldn't say it, so she could only close the door after the two of them.
ββββ Tong's Villaββββ
As soon as Tong Yi, Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu entered the Tong family's villa, they saw an old man who was in good spirits and looked like a thin bamboo pole getting up to greet them. Tong Yi and Yan Feiyue hurriedly stepped forward to help one of them and sat down on the sofa.
"Grandpa, you've been gone for years." Tong Yi's feelings are very restrained, but the trembling voice also betrays her longing.
"Hahahaββ, don't worry, Grandpa won't leave when he comes back this time." The old man said and reached out and touched his granddaughter's head, and said to Yan Feiyue beside him very amiably:
"Ah Yue has also grown up and become a big girl, your grandparents will be very happy to see it."
When Yan Feiyue heard this, her eyes were already hazy with tears, and she couldn't help choking up: "Grandpa Tong, as soon as I saw you, it was like seeing my grandfather-"
Yan Feiyue was very happy that Tong Tong could reunite with her grandfather, but this also reminded her of her grandparents, when she was a child, she was also nestled in their arms and surrounded by their knees.
"Don't cry, don't cry, Ah Yue, if your grandfather is here, how sad it will be! The deceased is gone, and we, the living, have to look forward, don't let them go uneasy! "Old Man Tong also watched Ah Yue, a little girl, grow up, and seeing this girl crying so sadly, he felt sorry for the early death of his old friend.
"Good ββγ" Yan Feiyue tried to put away her sad emotions, today is a good day for reunion, and she can't sweep everyone's happiness.
This is the first time for Qi Guanyu to experience Ah Yue's thoughts about her loved ones, and suddenly understand her helplessness and despair in her previous life. stepped forward, took Ah Yue into his arms, with pity in his eyes, and comforted softly:
"Ah Yue, you are not alone now, now that you have me, I will always be with you."
Qi Guanyu is like the sun in a cloudy sky to Yan Feiyue, and with him, it is a clear sky.
"Ah Yue, let's introduce this young talent to Grandpa Tong." Only then did Old Man Tong have the opportunity to ask logically.
Yan Feiyue took the official's hand and introduced, "Grandpa Tong, this is my fiancΓ©. β
"The younger Qi Guanyu has seen the old man." Qi Guanyu bowed down and made a junior salute.
"Okay, good, golden boy and girl, a good match." Old Man Tong knew everything about what happened during this time, and he was very optimistic about this young man, so he felt that Ah Yue's family could finally rest in peace.
Bai Shuhua came from the restaurant and informed everyone that it was time to eat, and everyone went to the restaurant to sit down one by one.
The old man is back, the first one has changed hands, Bai Shuhua, Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu are sitting on the right, and Tong Kongye, Tong Shan, and Tong Yi are sitting on the left.
"Let's move our chopsticks! After the meal, I will check the pulse for everyone and show it to Guan Yu. After the old man Tong moved his chopsticks, he said.
After the meal, everyone gathered in the study, each person had a cup of flower tea, slowly tasted tea, and waited for the old man's pulse one by one. After diagnosing everyone's pulses, Old Man Tong spoke:
"Kongye, Tong Tong and Shanshan are all a little angry and tired; The daughter-in-law is a little anxious, take it easy, go with the flow, and go which step counts; Ah Yue is very happy, the body is completely cultivated, and it is very good; Guan Yu's problem, I guessed a little bit or two, it seems that today's medicine has also played a role. β
"Xie Tong's family gave medicine." Qi Guanyu was very sincere when he said this.
"No, you exchanged it for three spirit grasses, it's just a deal." Old Man Tong regards Qi Guanyu as his junior, and he doesn't account for so much.
Old Man Tong didn't care, but Qi Guanyu couldn't help but care: the Tong family's spirit grass was fourth-level, and it already belonged to the middle-level spirit grass, and his three elixirs were low-level, although they were also equivalent, but he could exchange the low-level for the high-level, and he took advantage.
The old man looked at Qi Guanyu, who was secretly calculating, and was very satisfied, this young man was a grateful person, so he was relieved, and then said: "I have a treasure here, which can cure your broken spiritual rootββ"
As soon as these words came out, Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu were stunned, and after the two quickly glanced at each other, Yan Feiyue spoke first:
"Grandpa Tong, as long as we can really cure the officials, we are willing to do anything."
How could Qi Guanyu get Ah Yue to do everything for him, just as he was about to deny it, he heard Old Man Tong say: "It's not that complicated, just you and Ah Yue help everyone in the Tong family to awaken the spiritual root." β
Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu glanced at each other, they didn't expect that the Tong family would say it so directly, but they both had a feeling that it was really so.
The increasing understanding of these days made Yan Feiyue and Qi Guanyu feel that the Tong family had an understanding of cultivation, but they wondered why the Tong family had resources but did not cultivate.
"No one in the Tong family is cultivating now, and helping all the people in the Tong family to awaken the spiritual root is not so easy. Don't hide it from Grandpa Tong, even if my injuries heal and my cultivation recovers to the Yuan Infant Stage, I am afraid that I will not be able to solve the matter of the Tong family's spiritual root. Qi Guanyu knew in his heart that the Tong family had the spirit grass that could solve his spiritual root problem, but it could not solve his own family's problem, which showed the difficulty of the problem.
Old Man Tong was not in a hurry to ask Qi Guanyu to agree, but opened his mouth to tell the story: "The first ancestor of the Tong family here is from the Immortal Domain, the Tong family, a family of alchemy in the Middle Immortal Domain. β
"Immortal Realm?" Qi Guanyu didn't expect that the Tong family's origin was so big, he knew the fairy realm, but he only knew: in the cultivation realm, in order to reach the realm of refining the void, he will soar, and once the ascension is successful, he will reach the immortal realm, which is the real immortal residence. Other, in the unknown.
"That's right. Back then, the ancestor was just a child of the side branch of the Tong family, just because he was the closest branch to the bloodline of the Tong family, although the talent was not particularly outstanding, but he had always lived in the main family and relied on the main family to cultivate. When the ancestor was 15,000 years old and cultivated to the Mahayana period, a major event happened in the Tong family that shook the world. On the main vein of the Tong family, three earth-shattering spirit grasses have grown, which are said to be the 'extinct three grasses' that only grow once in 10,000 years. β
"......" Yan Feiyue heard this, and held Qi Guanyu's right hand uncontrollably, the palms of the two were dripping with cold sweat, but no one let go, and continued to wait for Old Man Tong's narration.
