【Chapter 044】Ten Pieces of Black Jade
【Chapter 044】Ten Pieces of Black Jade
"I came here to stay for a while before, and I never brought any food with me. I always ate the fruits here to fill my stomach."
Turning around, Ye Yisheng pointed in the direction of the bamboo house and continued, "Other fruits are planted behind the bamboo house. Since it is spring all year round here, there are ripe fruits to eat every time I come here."
Nangong Chenyu understood and knew why Ye Yisheng could hold on for so long even though his dantian was destroyed and his spiritual roots were dug out without any healing medicine.
Although the fruits here are just ordinary fruits, they are washed by spiritual energy all year round. Even if they are not spiritual fruits, they contain a faint trace of spiritual energy.
It was just this trace of spiritual energy that saved Ye Yisheng's life. If there was a little more spiritual energy, Ye Yisheng would explode and die.
Ye Yisheng continued, "It's a pity that the fruit trees planted here are not easy to survive. Even if they survive, the number of fruits each tree produces is limited. Every time I leave here, there is no fruit left on the fruit trees."
"If you like to eat them, you can pick all the fruits here and take them away when you leave."
Now that his body has recovered, he no longer needs to come here to stay for a while, and naturally he doesn't need to eat fruit to fill his stomach.
"Okay." Nangong Chenyu's current body has no resistance to delicious food.
The two ate two more peaches before continuing to walk towards the bamboo house.
The bamboo house has three rooms, the main room in the middle and bedrooms on both sides.
Walking to the bamboo house, Ye Yisheng pointed to the room on the left and said, "Every time I come here, I stay in this room." He turned his finger and pointed to the room on the right: "This room was where my mother lived before."
The nostalgia in Ye Yisheng's eyes flashed away, and he turned to look at Nangong Chenyu: "Let's go in!"
"good."
The two walked up the stairs side by side and entered the main room.
"Come with me, I have something to give you."
After saying that, Ye Yisheng walked towards the room on the right.
Nangong Chenyu followed obediently.
Entering the room, what caught Nangong Chenyu's eyes was a room full of boxes of all sizes. This was accompanied by the voice of Ye Yishen.
"You are a monk, the things in this box should be useful to you."
After taking a few steps to Ye Yishen's side, Nangong Chenyu looked at the box that Ye Yishen had opened. There were ten pieces of black jade of similar size placed in the box.
Nangong Chenyu swallowed his saliva helplessly.
The scene before him was completely different from what he had imagined.
The hero in the storybook found the treasure house of the Ye Mansion and obtained several pieces of spiritual jade, among which there was only one piece of black jade. Later, the male protagonist gave the black jade to the imperial teacher. That is why the national teacher took the male protagonist with him when he left the mortal continent.
In this case, the male protagonist in the storybook did not get one piece of black jade, but ten pieces. The male protagonist only gave one of them to the national teacher.
"Are you sure you want to give all these black jades to me?"
"I'll definitely give it to you." Ye Yisheng said affirmatively, and then changed the subject: "But I have something to explain to you."
"What's the matter?" Nangong Chenyu asked.
"The State Master of Dongli Country knows that there are things in the treasury of Ye Mansion that are useful to cultivators. Chen Qiang, also known as Huo Zichen, is the chess piece that the State Master arranged in Ye Mansion. If he knew that something useful to cultivators was taken away by you, he might come to find you."
On the one hand, Ye Yishen hopes that Nangong Chenyu can stay; on the other hand, he is worried that Nangong Chenyu is no match for Chu Jingcheng, so he hopes that Nangong Chenyu will take these black jades and leave the Ye Mansion and leave Dongli Kingdom.
My mind is conflicted and tangled.
Nangong Chenyu had no idea of Ye Yisheng's conflicted mood, so he told him what had happened before.
"In fact, not long ago, on the night that Dongli State Master left Ye Mansion, he sneaked back into Ye Mansion. Then I injured his consciousness, and he will not wake up in less than half a year."
"Of course, even if he wakes up without the elixir to heal his consciousness, his head will still ache from time to time. If he really comes to find me, I am not afraid of him."
Ye Yishen didn't expect that such a thing had happened in the Ye Mansion without his knowledge.
He subconsciously asked: "Are you not hurt?"
Seeing Ye Yishen's concerned eyes, Nangong Chenyu's mood suddenly became very good.
"Don't worry, I'm not hurt."
Since the National Master was injured by Nangong Chenyu, but Nangong Chenyu is fine. This meant that the Imperial Master was no match for Nangong Chenyu, and Ye Yisheng’s annoyed mood disappeared.
"Let's carry this box to the main room first, and take it with us when we leave later," Ye Yishen suggested.
Now that the plot in the storybook has changed, Ye Xian will most likely wake up. Nangong Chenyu asked, "You gave me all these black jades. When your father wakes up and finds out, will he blame you?"
"Won't."
Ye Yisheng smiled and said something against his will.
He was worried that his father would be reluctant to give the black jade to Nangong Chenyu after waking up, so he brought Nangong Chenyu here now. His father treasured these black jades so much that he knew them better than anyone else.
Ye Xian: ...I was still unconscious when my baby was stolen by my son.
"Ye Yisheng, do you want to become a cultivator?" Nangong Chenyu suddenly asked.
This was where Ye Yisheng's mother lived, so it would be inappropriate for him to bring Nangong Suhao here. If he wanted to go to Lingyuan Continent, letting Ye Yisheng practice was the best way.
Ye Yisheng was not delighted, but said calmly: "I heard that if you want to become a cultivator, you must have spiritual roots."
After hearing that a powerful national teacher had come to Dongli Kingdom, his father took him to find Chu Jingcheng. His father thought that if he became a monk, his health might improve. As a result, Chu Jingcheng told his father that he could not practice since he had no spirit.
Nangong Chenyu nodded: "Not bad."
"I don't have any spiritual roots." Ye Yishen lowered his eyebrows to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
“Have you ever tested your spiritual roots?” Nangong Chenyu was a little surprised. Generally, only sects have instruments for testing spiritual roots. This is the Mortal Continent, but there are no sects here.
Ye Yisheng told the truth: "The national teacher examined me before, and he said that I have no spiritual roots."
Nangong Chenyu asked again: "Besides saying that you have no spiritual roots, did he say anything else?"
Ye Yisheng shook his head.
Nangong Chen leaned against the box and sat on it, then said, "I don't think I've told you yet that Old Madam Ye is not your biological grandmother."
"Are you telling the truth?" Ye Yisheng was a little excited.
He doesn't even want to dream of a grandmother who wants him dead all the time.
"I asked her before, and she said with her own mouth that your father was not her biological son. I originally wanted to ask her who your father's biological mother was. Unfortunately, the old woman was very tight-lipped, and she refused to tell me no matter what method I used. In the end, I scared her so much that she had a stroke." Nangong Chenyu said.
"Thank you." Ye Yishen said gratefully.
The answer is very important to their family. If their father knew it, he would definitely be very happy.
Nangong Chenyu asked again: "Then do you know why your health is so bad?"
Ye Yisheng fell into memories.
"It was one night when I was six and a half years old. I went to bed earlier than usual that night and fell asleep almost as soon as I touched the bed. When I woke up, I found that my stomach hurt a lot. The doctor checked and said that I had internal injuries."
"But no matter how much medicine I took, my internal injuries never healed. And since then, my health has been getting worse and worse. I don't know what happened that night, and neither does the night watchman."
After a pause, Ye Yisheng looked at Nangong Chenyu and asked, "Do you know something?"
Nangong Chenyu did not hide anything and told Ye Yisheng about the previous examination: "Someone dug out your spiritual roots that night, drew a lot of your blood, and destroyed your Dantian."
"Mrs. Ye should know about this. Unfortunately, when I asked her, she didn't tell me who the murderer was."
"I guess the murderer should be a cultivator who has reached the Golden Core Stage."
Ye Yishen frowned. Why would a Jindan-stage cultivator come to the mortal continent specifically to dig out his spiritual roots and destroy his dantian?
Is this matter related to my father’s background?
If so, why didn't the Jindan stage cultivator attack the father directly, but instead attacked a child like him?
Just when Ye Yisheng was puzzled, Nangong Chenyu gave him the answer: "The Jindan-stage cultivator dug out your spiritual roots. It must be that there is someone about your age who wants your spiritual roots."
Ye Yisheng was surprised: "The spiritual root grows in my body. Can I dig it out and give it to others?"
This is just the beginning. Nangong Chenyu said: "Not only spiritual roots, but even kidneys, bone marrow, and hearts can be taken out and replaced with matching people."
Ye Yisheng swallowed his saliva. He felt that his worldview had been challenged.
Nangong Chenyu: "When I examined your body earlier, I found that a spiritual root had grown in your Dantian again."
"You mean I can practice?" Ye Yisheng's eyes were full of hope.
Nangong Chenyu nodded.
"You want to take me as your disciple?" Ye Yishen frowned slightly. When he thought about the future relationship between him and Nangong Chenyu as master and disciple, he felt a little resistant.
Nangong Chenyu: “…” Ye Yuncheng wanted to worship him as his master, and Ye Yisheng also wanted to worship him as his master. Wouldn't the whole family want to worship him as their master in the end?
However, he does not easily accept disciples.
After thinking for a while, he stated his purpose: "I will teach you how to practice, and when your cultivation breaks through the foundation-building stage, you will take me to Lingyuan Continent."
Ye Yisheng directly asked his doubts, "You are a cultivator yourself, why do you want to go to Lingyuan Continent and wait for my cultivation to break through the foundation-building stage?"
"Due to some reasons, my cultivation cannot be improved for the time being." Nangong Chenyu did not intend to say it clearly.
"You are going to Lingyuan Continent, so what about your elder brother?" Ye Yisheng asked.
Nangong Chenyu answered without hesitation: "Of course, I will take him with me to Lingyuan Continent."
Ye Yishen thought of the person who had dug out his spiritual roots and Chu Jingcheng’s plan. If it weren't for the life-saving method left by their mother, the grass on their family's graves would have been so tall.
"Second Young Master Nangong, I agree to your terms."
"Okay, that's settled."
Nangong Chenyu was not worried at all that Ye Yishen would regret it after breaking through the foundation-building stage. Because even if Ye Yisheng has the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he can still defeat Ye Yisheng by using spiritual attacks.
