Chapter 474: Obscure Concern
The next day, noon.
The long absence of practice allowed Xu Yuan to absorb the strange energy composed of life source, yin source and source qi in the formation like a sponge.
Having not practiced for several months, one night and one noon only allowed him to complete the process of absorbing Qi and replenish the depleted energy in his body.
After doing this, Xu Yuan did not continue to cultivate the source.
When he used Yuan Qi to practice, he could use the inexhaustible Yuan Qi in the Prime Minister's Mansion to practice without any scruples, but now he can no longer do so.
Although he can continue to practice, the hundred ghosts and ghosts imprisoned as firewood in the crypt below his room are the limit.
The speed at which they convert the source energy into the source of yin and life is slower than the speed of his cultivation. This night's breathing has already consumed all the life and yin sources that he has accumulated for several days.
However, the crypt below should only be a preliminary testing ground. If it is successful, it will continue to be expanded.
Thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan prepared to go out to find Xu Changge and asked his eldest brother to order his subordinates to transport more ghosts and strange ghosts.
The warm winter sun shines into the room through the window lattice. Under the sunlight, some floating in the air can be clearly seen.
After getting out of bed, Xu Yuan put on his clothes and opened the door.
But as soon as he went out, he was stunned.
Why is this dad back?
I saw a middle-aged man with gray hair in the elegant pavilion beside the small pond in the courtyard.
He was still wearing the iconic black dragon robe, his face was calm and calm, and he was staring at the sycamore tree in the courtyard.
After a moment of silence, Xu Yuan suppressed the original thoughts in his heart and walked quickly towards the pavilion.
Stepping into the pavilion, Xu Yuan sat directly opposite the stone table and called softly:
“Father, you have been staring at this sycamore tree. Is there a story in it?”
Xu Yinhe slowly retracted his gaze from the sycamore tree. When it fell on Xu Yuan, an imperceptible smile flashed across his eyes:
“There are indeed some stories, but they are all from the past.”
Hearing this, Xu Yuan also glanced at the sycamore tree planted in the courtyard.
Under the warm sun, the branches of the plane tree are bare, and the leaves on them have fallen off with the arrival of winter.
This sycamore tree is not a spiritual plant, it is a quite common ornamental tree species in Dayan.
In midsummer, the branches and leaves are in full bloom, and when the breeze blows, a sweet sound like wind chimes will be heard, hence the name Xuan Ling.
Xu Yuan’s eyes showed a trace of curiosity and asked:
"what story?"
Xu Yinhe didn’t hide anything, and spoke with a nostalgic smile:
“A story about your mother.”
Xu Yuan’s eyes flashed.
Just like every child, everyone is curious about the love story of their parents.
Let alone the past of a man as charming as an immortal like the father in front of him.
Thinking about it, Xu Yuan’s lips curved into a smile:
“Father, are you and your mother determined to stay under this sycamore tree for the rest of your life?”
ˆ “.”
Hearing this, the man with gray hair looked at the big tree surrounded by three people again.
Under the sunlight, he vaguely saw the shadow of the deceased's fairy-like appearance when she was a young girl.
His sharp eyes narrowed slightly, Xu Yinhe gradually closed his eyes, with a smile on his lips, his voice was very light and gentle:
"Yep."
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan saw his father's expression, his eyes lowered slightly, and he also smiled, but he did not continue to ask any more questions.
The silence lasted for more than ten breaths in the pavilion. Xu Yinhe’s steady voice broke the silence of remembrance:
“Is your practice going well?”
Xu Yuan smiled when he heard this:
“The formation developed by Xinyao is very powerful, and now the child can practice normally.”
Xu Yinhe glanced at the side room and said:
Xu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he felt relieved and nodded:
“The Yin Source and Life Source produced are indeed not enough to support my continued cultivation.” Xu Yinhe nodded slightly:
“Xin Yao is very attentive and cautious. In order to prevent you from accidents, she did not easily dispatch too many ghosts and ghosts.”
Xu Yuan instantly understood the meaning of his father's words.
Everything has been prepared, just waiting for you to come back and experiment before continuing to expand.
This father is always like this, even in such small things, he will arrange it without leakage.
As thoughts flashed through his mind, Xu Yuan suddenly remembered the promise he made to Xu Xinyao last night, and said in a low voice:
“Father, actually this formation still needs improvement.”
"Um?"
Xu Yinhe raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of just the right amount of surprise in his eyes.
Upon seeing this, Xu Yuan immediately told the manuscript he had prepared:
“Xin Yao said that although the completion of this formation is very high, it is still a semi-finished product.”
Xu Yinhe nodded and gestured to continue.
Xu Yuan saw this and chuckled:
"This formation is too big. If I want to practice, I have to stay in this wing for a long time. Under Xinyao's idea, this formation can be streamlined to the point that I can carry it with me."
Xu Yinhe glanced at Xu Yuan meaningfully, with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, and nodded:
“That’s right, what do you want?”
ˆ “.”
Xu Yuan's heart trembled when he heard this.
After saying this, he felt that he had been seen through by his father again.
However, he still bit the bullet and whispered:
“I hope, father, you can allocate some formation masters and weapon refiners to Xinyao.”
Xu Yuan did not directly say how many people were needed, because he felt that his father in front of him should know what he wanted to do.
"Um"
Xu Yinhe groaned vaguely, and then said to himself: "There are five formation masters and five weapon refiners each at the level of armor. This should be enough."
have to.
This dad really knows what he wants to do, and he doesn't seem to object.
Thinking about it, Xu Yuan licked the corners of his lips and said tentatively:
“The funds”
“I will instruct Hua Hong to give Xinyao a share of 500,000 taels of equipment.”
"Only five hundred thousand taels?" Xu Yuan was stunned. This was different from what he thought.
Xu Yinhe glanced at him:
“What, is that too much?”
Xu Yuan’s eyes twitched and he immediately said with a smile:
“No, no, it’s just right.”
“Heh, that’s good.”
Xu Yinhe chuckled and stood up slowly: "That's it, I have other things to deal with as a father."
Seeing this, Xu Yuan slowly stood up and saluted:
“Yes, father.”
Xu Yinhe looked at the three sons in front of him and suddenly said:
“Xin Yao’s temperament is too kind, and she is not good at expressing herself in long songs. As a brother, you should be more considerate.”
As he finished speaking, a gust of breeze blew by, and the middle-aged man's figure had disappeared.
Standing in the pavilion for a while, Xu Yuan shook his head and sat down slowly.
The father came here specifically to inquire about Xinyao's condition.
But since I care,
Why not do it yourself?
