Chapter XXVIII

Early the next morning, all the people who were qualified to enter the Spirit Cave stood in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, waiting for the most important moment of their lives.

When the heavy and gorgeous gate of the City Lord's Mansion opened, it was like the first rays of the morning sun shining on everyone's faces, excitement and excitement were hope, and everyone's faces still carried a trace of nervousness.

Waiting for everyone to walk into the city lord's mansion under the leadership of the guards, after many turns, everyone felt that the eyes suddenly opened up, a huge garden appeared in the eyes of everyone, surrounded by flowers, dark fragrance floating, in the middle is a rockery, strange stones are stacked high, like nature.

Xia Chengfeng, Xia Yu, Jin Xi, Gao Haoran, and the patriarchs of the four major families all smiled when they looked at everyone who entered the garden.

"I've seen the city lord. The crowd bowed and saluted.

"You don't need to be polite, you are all young talents in my Yucheng, and today is an important moment in your life, I hope you can all get your favorite spirit seed. Xia Chengfeng said with a smile.

"I won't delay your time, I'll open the Spirit Cave immediately, but you have to remember that you only have one day, and after one day, you have to quit anyway, otherwise you will bear the consequences. Xia Chengfeng said again.

Xia Chengfeng took out a jade token and threw it into the air, only to see the waves rolling in the air as if it had opened, and a portal the size of five zhang slowly appeared.

"Everyone, enter in turn. Xia Chengfeng's voice sounded.

Everyone consciously lined up to enter, and after everyone entered, the gate disappeared again, and the jade plate flew back into Xia Chengfeng's hand.

Xia Chengfeng, Jin Xi, Gao Haoran, and the patriarchs of the four major families sat behind the tables and chairs that had already been set up and drank tea, protecting the Dharma here and waiting for everyone's return.

Xia Yu didn't have anything to do, he came with him this time just to see the excitement, and turned around to his room.

Xia Yu sat in his room, picked up a book, page by page, a ray of sunlight shone on Xia Yu's face through the window, a lazy look appeared on the originally handsome face, Xia Yu enjoyed this rare peace and ease.

Time always slips away unintentionally around you, when the sunset dyes the clouds on the horizon red, exuding the last afterglow, Xia Yu put down the book in his hand, stretched his waist, walked out of the door, and slowly appeared in the garden.

Every scent in the garden is refreshing and spiritual.

Xia Chengfeng looked at the sun that was about to sink and said, "It's time." ”

Xia Chengfeng, Jin Xi, Gao Haoran, and the patriarchs of the four major families all stood up, Xia Chengfeng threw the jade plate into the air, and the door appeared again, slowly opened, and saw that everyone who went in in the morning walked out one after another, and everyone's face was full of smiles.

Wu Po and Wang Sheng were mixed in the crowd, and when they saw Xia Yu hurriedly waving their hands, the expression on their faces was indescribable, in short, they were excited.

Xia Yu didn't care about others, and took Wu Po and Wang Sheng to a room that had been prepared early, and immediately a servant put on a sumptuous meal of wine and food.

Xia Yu said: "Don't say anything, today is the day to congratulate you on obtaining the spirit seed, and you will not return home if you are not drunk today." ”

The three of them picked up their glasses and dried them together.

"Haha, thank you Brother Yu, we got what we wanted this time, and we all got the spirit seed, but what kind of spirit seed it is only known when it is hatched. Wu Po said with a smile.

"Brother Yu, don't you know, after entering the spirit cave, I feel like I am walking in the clouds, all around flashing all kinds of brilliance, after a while there is a down-to-earth feeling, a huge cave appeared in front of us, as we go deeper, the cave is also radiant, there are all kinds of spirit seeds that exude brilliance flying, just like the sky of fireflies, very good-looking, just entered the cave soon after someone obtained the spirit seed, but we all know that only in the depths of the cave there are better spirit seeds, just enter the cave to obtain the spirit seed of those people regretted, there is no way but to stop their footsteps, watching us slowly move forward, The deeper we go into the cave, the less the spirit seed, but the brilliance of the spirit seed is also more dazzling and bright, Wu Po and I have not walked to the end of the cave, maybe our strength is not enough, we can't move an inch wherever we go, there seems to be an invisible wall in front of us blocking our way, we had to find a spirit planted into the dantian. Wang Sheng said.

"Theoretically, there is no difference between strong and weak spirit seeds, it just depends on whether the spiritual energy in your dantian is abundant, as long as the spiritual energy is abundant, no matter how weak the spiritual seed is, it will evolve, bringing you incredible power and magical powers. Xia Yu said.

"Brother Yu, are you saying that the spirit seed can evolve and become more powerful?" asked Wang Sheng.

"Of course, all of this is in the book, that is, the probability of evolution is very small, and the conditions for evolution are too harsh. Xia Yu said.

The three of them chatted and drank until the middle of the month, Wu Po and Wang Sheng were drunk and hazy, and they fell asleep in the City Lord's Mansion that night, and did not leave until they woke up the next day, retreating with peace of mind and hatching spirit seeds.

Xia Yu has nothing to do in the past few days, just flipping through some books to deepen his understanding of the Spirit Continent.

On this day, Xia Chengfeng, Liu Ziyan, and Xia Yu sat together, Xia Chengfeng said: "Yu'er, tomorrow we are going to leave for the royal city, there are some things to tell you, your grandfather Xia Wang has a total of eight sons and six daughters, among which your uncle and fourth uncle are the most outstanding, and they are also deeply loved by your grandfather, if nothing else, one of them will become the prince of Wang Shizi to inherit the throne, but your uncle thinks very highly of himself and has no one in his eyes, your fourth uncle is ruthless, Xia Peng is the son of your fourth uncle." Speaking of which, Xia Chengfeng glanced at Xia Yu, saw that Xia Yu had no reaction, and continued: "Although the qualifications of your second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle, seventh uncle, and eighth uncle are slightly inferior, they also have their own strengths, and your seventh and eighth uncles have a good relationship because they are close to my age,"

Speaking of this, Xia Chengfeng glanced at Xia Yu, saw that Xia Yu didn't react, and continued: "Although the qualifications of your second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle, fifth uncle, seventh uncle, and eighth uncle are slightly inferior, they also have their own strengths. The four major families of Nangong, the ancestors of these four families were all meritorious ministers when the ancestors established the Xia Domain, and today it is the most powerful family except for the royal family, and there are intermarriages with the royal family, and the relationship is close. Then there is your grandmother, you have to be very careful, she is a person who does not give up until she reaches her goal, for me to refuse the marriage she arranged for me, I feel that I have lost face, I have always hated me, even you have been implicated, by the way, your grandmother arranged for me is a young lady of Situ, and the people of the Situ family also hold a grudge against me. ”

Xia Yu listened to all Xia Chengfeng's words, and couldn't help but say in his heart: "My father in this life is really okay, there are few people who are good to him, and there are a lot of people who hate him." ”
