A figure in a gray robe sat down beside Li Bai, reaching out to wrap his arms around the young man's shoulder, but the big hand paused slightly in the air, and finally took it back.

Fathers all over the world are the same, deep in love but not good at expressing it.

After being quiet for a while, Li Bai exhaled deeply, turned his head, and smiled warmly at the silent figure beside him: "Father, you are here."

In the past eight years, Li Bai has spent all his time on cultivation, and his father is also entangled in sect affairs, and there are not many opportunities for the two to get along, but as long as there is time, the father who is not good at expressing himself always tries to accompany his son, and many times there is not much to say between the two, but this kind of relationship makes Li Bai feel infinitely warm.

"Hehe, Bai, I saw you here, come and sit with you. On the big bluestone, the middle-aged man moved his body unnaturally, and pretended to smile easily.

This middle-aged man is the elder of Fengqingmen, Li Feng in the late Jindan period, that is, Li Bai's father in this life, tall and mighty, he is vigorous and resolute on weekdays, and he saves the sect from fire and water by himself, and has a high prestige in the eyes of the disciples in the sect.

"Father, you haven't rested yet. Leaning on the middle-aged man's side and sitting down, Li Bai's face showed a happy smile, although he was already a big guy, but since he was born, the father in front of him has been pampered by him in every way, especially when his cultivation is not smooth, but he loves more.

In his almost masochistic cultivation in recent years, his father did not interfere too much, but often brought some tonic medicine to strengthen the foundation of Peiyuan, and often pushed the acupoints for himself, so as not to hurt his body. For such a father, Li Bai's heart is naturally full of respect.

"Bai, are you still thinking about today's test?", Li Feng was silent for a while, but still brought up the topic.

"Yes, father. ”

"You'll be eighteen next year, you'll be an adult, remember when you were just born, you're only so old--", Li Bai said as he gestured with his hand.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about it". Looking at Li Bai's complaining eyes, the incomparably majestic hero in the eyes of everyone rubbed his hands awkwardly, still the clumsy appearance of the father who had just become a father more than ten years ago.

"You're going to have a coming-of-age ceremony in a year", after a while, relieving some of the embarrassment just now, Li Feng spoke again.

"Yes, father. His voice was a little dry, and his hands were clenched into fists.

Li Bai knows what it means, as long as they have passed the coming-of-age ceremony, the second generation of them, the sect, will also participate in the selection of the sect like ordinary disciples, and people like Li Bai who have no cultivation potential will most likely lose the resource support of the sect and be allocated to the secular industry, which is the rule of the sect, and it is also the foundation of the sect's survival, and no one can violate it.

After all, this is a world of practice, and it is not yet a world of practice that advocates peace.

Here, strength is the only means of survival.

"I'm sorry, father, for letting you down. The words that had been held in my heart for a long time were finally spoken.

"Haha, my silly son, father never blamed you. A big hand finally landed on Li Bai's shoulder and patted it vigorously.

"Bai, my father just wants you to live happily, seeing that you have been so cruel to yourself in the past few years, my father is very sad, my father is sorry for you, I am always called a hero by others, I didn't expect it to bring you so much pressure. ”

"Father-Father-!"

"Okay, Bai, don't say that you are now in the third layer of condensation, even if you are a mortal who can't cultivate, your father can keep you safe and secure for the rest of your life!", Li Feng, who has been looked up to by everyone for half his life, has a proud momentum when he says such a thing.

"Father still hopes that you can be happy every day like when you were a child, there are still many things to do in this world, and there are still many beautiful things to experience"

"Father-dear-thank you--!", the young man choked up, even if he was a human being in two lives, feeling this strong love, Li Bai's heart was also agitated.

"I wanted to wait until next year's coming-of-age ceremony to give it to you. Li Feng, who was still arrogant just now, became the clumsy father who tried his best to please his son, and happily took out a rosewood box from his arms.

"What is this?"

"Open it and you'll know"

Li Bai carefully took the wooden box from his father's hand, and bursts of woody fragrance penetrated into his nostrils, refreshing people's hearts, and the wooden box was slightly heavy. Glancing at Li Feng, who was looking at him with kind eyes, he nodded slightly, signaling him to open it quickly.

Gently lifted the lid on the wooden box, only to reveal a small slit, and a faint blue light had leaked out. Li Bai was overjoyed in his heart, and with a force in his hand, he lifted the entire lid.

A small cyan jade plaque lies quietly on the white flannel cloth, the jade plaque is painted with exquisite patterns, faintly seems to be full of pavilions, but when you look closely, but it is not so real, the jade plaque is inlaid with two golden dragons on both sides, circling upward, intersecting on the top of the jade plaque, forming a pattern of two dragons playing with pearls.

"Father, what is this?", Li Bai asked with a look of surprise.

"When my father was young, he once went on a wild expedition with a few friends, and he got it by chance in a tribe, and it looked very beautiful, and later gave it to your mother. ”

"Oh," Li Bai's expression was a little gloomy, since he can remember, his mother has been in poor health, and when he was less than ten years old, his mother fell ill and passed away.

"Don't be sad, your mother must be very happy now that she is less tormented by illness, and this jade plate can be regarded as a relic left to you by your mother. Li Feng paused, and then slowly continued.

"This jade plate has been in your mother's hands for many years, and by chance I found that it turned out to be a special storage space, as long as it is connected by essence and blood, even mortals can use it, and I just gave it to you today!"

"Storage space!", Li Bai looked surprised, he had always wanted a storage space, but ordinary storage bags could only be used by monks after the foundation was built.

Unless the original owner dies, many high-level monks often smelt the natal magic weapon with their own essence blood, which can not only improve the sensitivity of manipulation, but also prevent the magic weapon from being snatched and rerefined by the enemy.

However, it costs a lot to make blood refining things, who would make a jade-like storage space, which is not convenient to carry.

No matter so much, now that I have this by myself, it's just hard to bring, and I won't dislike you. Li Bai was secretly happy in his heart, and he had already taken the jade card in his hand and looked at it carefully.

Li Feng explained a few more words and handed over the specific usage method to Li Bai.

"It's not early, go back early to rest, take care of your spirits, there will be distinguished guests at home these days, don't be rude"

"Distinguished guest, who is it?", Li Bai raised his head and said curiously.

"You'll find out in a few days. Squeezing his eyes at Li Bai, Li Feng laughed and left, leaving Li Bai with a confused face.

"Father, you won't secretly order a doll for me with your mother-in-law, and your mother-in-law will come to see your son-in-law in a few days, right?"

The figure that had gone away was obviously staggering.

"Think beautiful!", the voice was full of smiles.

"Hehe," Li Bai also laughed happily.

"Don't worry, father, I won't let you down. Stroking the warm jade card in his hand, Li Bai looked at the back that was gradually moving away and muttered alone.

When Li Bai raised his head, the cyan jade plate in his hand suddenly lit up with an extremely faint and strange electric light, and the electric light disappeared in the skin of his palm in a blink of an eye. Li Bai couldn't help but feel excited, looked at the jade card suspiciously, and shook his head, maybe too tired today.
