Volume 3, Chapter 4: Young and yet at the end of the road
Yingluo Town is a small town.
Although Yingluo Town is a small town, its economic development momentum is very good, which can be seen from the numerous shops and the endless sea of people.
There are two families in Yingluo Town, one is the Bai family and the other is the Hong family. Neither the Bai family nor the Hong family are big families, but the economic lifeline of Yingluo Town is completely controlled by these two families. Under the joint control and operation of these two families, Yingluo Town has always maintained its prosperity.
The Bai family and the Hong family are equal in strength, and they get along very well on the surface. However, shopping malls are like battlefields, involving honor and interests. Private fights between the two families are naturally unavoidable.
The territory of Dazhen Country is extremely vast, and there are many small towns like Yingluo Town. However, those sects have only cultivation in their life, and they look down upon such a place. Therefore, small towns like this are only It will be controlled by some families.
The Bai family is Bai Fei's family.
Bai Xiao, the patriarch of the Bai family, is Bai Fei's father. He and Hong Gu, the patriarch of the Hong family, are both close to the peak of the three human realms. Putting aside the strong men of the sect, in Yingluo Town, The two of them are the most powerful. The Bai family and the Hong family have two people in charge respectively, and their strength is about the same. Therefore, they have always been in peace with each other.
It was noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the streets and alleys of Yingluo Town were still very noisy. Compared to the hustle and bustle on the street, the Bai family courtyard is surprisingly quiet.
Somewhere in the distance, a figure stands alone.
It has been more than a month since I returned home. During this time, Bai Fei would come to this place every day and stay for several hours. His mother told him that he was already unconscious when he came back and that someone had sent him back. He had been in a coma for nearly a month and had worried his mother and sister for nearly a month. A few days ago, he finally woke up, and since then, he has become taciturn.
Bai Fei has never forgotten that last scene. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't feel anything abnormal, he probably wouldn't be as calm as he is now. He really saw that unknown thing rushing into his body.
"It seems that I will have to help the family share some of the burden in the future!" Bai Fei thought silently.
"Brother!" came a slightly childish voice, it was Bai Fei's sister Bai Qi.
"What's wrong?" Bai Fei couldn't help but ask when he saw her panic.
Bai Qi is not yet twelve years old, and is four years younger than Bai Fei. The brother and sister have been close friends since childhood. When Bai Fei came back, the brother and sister felt like they were reunited after a long separation, and they had endless things to talk about. However, Bai Fei's temperament changed drastically after he came back, and Bai Qi didn't dare to disturb him too much. During this period of time, if Bai Fei could find a ray of comfort in his extreme melancholy, it was his sister.
Bai Qi came to Bai Fei's side, calmed down and said, "Brother, Hong... Hong Lin is here, he... he said..."
"Hong Lin, that dandy boy from the Hong family? What did he say? Don't be impatient, speak slowly."
"He, he told his father, brother you...you were driven back...by Xingluomen!" After saying that, Bai Qi looked at Bai Fei, really hoping that her brother could deny this matter. She had been very She adored her brother. Three years ago, her brother was sent to Xingluomen. She was so happy that she couldn't sleep well for several days.
"What did father say?" Bai Fei asked lightly. He hadn't told his father about this yet. He didn't expect that someone would be so eager to laugh at him.
"My father drove him away without saying anything!" Bai Qi looked at Bai Fei and asked tentatively: "Brother, is what he said true?"
Bai Fei did not answer immediately. He looked up at the sky for a while and said calmly: "Xiao Qi, after a while, I will definitely convince my father to send you to Xingluomen. Brother, there is no way to go. I hope you can be well." Go on!"
"Brother, you..."
"Okay, don't be sad, let's go find father!"
The brothers and sisters came to their father's room, but they did not see their father. Their mother told them that his father hurried out without saying anything. The mother of the two brothers and sisters was an ordinary woman. She had no contact with cultivation, but she still took good care of the family. When she turned around after speaking, Bai Fei suddenly saw a trace of sadness on her face. It must be because of Someone said something bad about Bai Fei.
Five days later, Bai Xiao came back excitedly.
"Father!"
Bai Fei walked around with Bai Qi all morning. When he got home, after lunch, they went back to their rooms to rest. When he saw his father arriving, he hurriedly greeted him.
"You kid, you like to hide everything in your heart!" Bai Xiao took a deep look at his son and said.
"Father, I..." Bai Fei said.
"Forget it, there's no need to say anything. Here, I'll give this to you. I believe that my son, Bai Xiao, will never live such an ordinary life!" Bai Xiao said, taking out something from his pocket, cherishing it. Put it on the table.
"Magic vanilla?" Bai Fei asked in surprise. Could it be that his father just wanted to get magic vanilla for himself these days?
Magic Herb is a very precious medicinal herb. The elixir refined from it is called Magic Fragrance Pill. It is very effective for practitioners to condense their magic power. However, it is rarely sold on the market. This is because, It is quite difficult to pick this kind of herb. Not only must you control the weather and time, but you also need a certain amount of luck, otherwise its effectiveness will be greatly reduced. Although the magic herb is expensive, it is not something that cultivators are keen on. Because it is very particular about picking it, the price on the market is very high. One plant costs nearly 30,000 gold coins. If it is not needed for alchemy, the average person will It is rare to acquire it, and many cultivators will not be able to condense a drop of mana dew like Bai Fei.
"That's right, it's Magic Vanilla. You try it first and see if it has any effect?" After Bai Xiao said this, he turned around and left.
"Father!" Bai Fei suppressed the emotion in his heart and called hurriedly.
"Um?"
"Father, please arrange something for me!"
"Okay, I get it now."
After Bai Xiao left, Bai Fei took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the magic herb.
Could this little magical herb really change one's destiny? Bai Fei smiled bitterly. Obviously, his father already knew about his affairs. He did not ask about what happened that day, but it is conceivable that his father was not in a good mood at that time. Father's love is like a mountain. Although it was just a few words, Bai Fei could feel the care and expectation from his father.
Thirty thousand gold coins! Bai Fei thought about it again and again, and finally made up his mind and picked up the magic herb. He doesn't know how to make elixirs, and he doesn't have the ability or capital to ask someone to refine the magic herb into a magic elixir. He can only endure the bitter taste of the magic herb and spend 30,000 gold coins, oh no, this fantasy fragrance.
Chew the grass and swallow it.
Bai Fei immediately jumped on the bed, sat cross-legged, and concentrated on the feeling brought by the magical vanilla. He was very familiar with cultivation. As for whether this magical herb could really allow him to condense mana dew, he had no hope. He just wanted to live up to his father's hard work. Thirty thousand gold coins, I wonder when I can get this cost back?
As soon as the training seals were tied, the spiritual energy in the air fluctuated slightly. In the past, after Bai Fei absorbed this spiritual energy, because he could not condense the mana dew, a very small part was absorbed by his body, and most of it was dispersed invisible. , but the situation is different now. After the spiritual energy entered Bai Fei's body, he clearly felt his heart beat abnormally. Then, the spiritual energy gradually blended with his own breath. It seemed that the spiritual energy was instantly transformed into mana without any effort on his part. , but these mana did not temper his body, but compressed it sharply. For a moment, Bai Fei's Dantian seemed to be filled with something, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Although he felt uncomfortable, Bai Fei was extremely excited because he knew that this was a necessary process for condensing mana dew. In the past, he had not even waited for this process. You can imagine how excited he was at this time! Could it be that a small magical herb really has such a huge effect?
Bai Fei put aside his distracting thoughts and concentrated on the experience. He could feel that the mana dew was gradually taking shape. How to condense mana dew, Luo Mei told him countless times during his three years in Xingluomen. At this time, Bai Fei was even more comfortable. An hour later, Bai Fei's Dantian suddenly felt a sharp pain, and then a coolness spread, quickly replacing the pain. At that moment, he felt unprecedented refreshing.
Mana dew! I finally condensed the mana dew! Bai Fei suddenly felt like crying. It’s been three years, three whole years. It’s not that I didn’t work hard enough, but no matter how much I put in, I couldn’t do something. Now, I can do it because of a little magic grass!
The first drop of mana dew was condensed, and the rest of the matter became much smoother. Bai Fei has entered the eighth level of the Human Realm. At this level, he can store 800 drops of mana dew. Now that he has successfully condensed a drop of mana dew, he will naturally not stop.
In the past three years, he has experienced countless setbacks and failures, experienced too many cold looks and sarcasm, and Bai Fei is no longer the impulsive young man who just entered Xingluomen three years ago. He quickly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and the handprints of cultivation were displayed one after another. There seemed to be some irregular waves rolling in the air in the room, and the invisible and intangible spiritual energy of heaven and earth rushed into Bai Fei's body continuously. Finally, it was absorbed, refined, and transformed into mana, condensing it into mana dew. In less than three hours, the number of mana dewdrops in Bai Fei's body exceeded one hundred.
Bai Fei also knew that there was a way to relax, and after three consecutive hours of hard work, and the fact that it was the first time he had condensed the mana dew, he was already beyond his capabilities at this time, so he stopped practicing. Anyway, the first drop of dew has been condensed. In the future, if you practice slowly, you can either continue to increase the number of mana dew, or use the mana dew to temper your body. Everything will become very smooth.
Jumping out of bed, Bai Fei's first thought was to tell his father the good news. As soon as he took a step forward, he gave up this idea. He stretched out and clenched his hands vigorously. There was faint magic power pulsating on them, which was completely different from before.
After taking a few deep breaths, suddenly, a strange idea popped up in Bai Fei's mind.
