Seeing a hint of nervousness and fear on the faces of several of his grandsons, Zheng Yaozu nodded secretly.
He never gets used to being strict with his grandchildren. When it is necessary to be strict, he must stick to it to the end and cannot relax at all.
Suddenly, Zheng Chengdong calmed down and asked loudly, "Grandpa, since we are going to participate in the selection with Big Brother, do we have to stop our previous work?"
If they pass the assessment successfully this time, it means they will all stay in the Ancient Martial Arts Team, and they will definitely not be able to return to their previous workplace.
Hearing his fourth brother talking about work, Zheng Chengxi immediately remembered that his leader had asked him to go on a business trip, so he hurriedly said, "The unit originally planned to send me on a business trip to Jiangnan in two days. If there is a change in the work, I have to inform them in advance."
Zheng Yaozu thought about it for a while, and then made a decisive decision, "Tomorrow morning, you will go to your unit to ask for leave, and stay at home for the next half month to concentrate on your cultivation. After the results come out, I will discuss the transfer with your unit."
Afterwards, he looked up at everyone in the room, his tone becoming more serious than ever before, "Regarding this team assessment, you must go all out and not have any negative mentality. Especially Chengye, you have been in the superpower team for almost seven years, you should understand the importance of establishing a ancient martial arts team in our country! This time, your goal is not to join the special forces, but the dragon team!"
After Zheng Yaozu finished speaking, he looked directly at his eldest grandson, and the sternness in his eyes unconsciously deepened.
As the eldest grandson of the Zheng family, Zheng Chengye should naturally shoulder the responsibility of the Zheng family. Therefore, he must have a long-term vision and pursue a higher direction.
"Grandpa, I understand!" Zheng Chengye immediately responded in a deep voice.
He knew clearly what his responsibilities were, and therefore, he had no objection to his grandfather's arrangements or the things he emphasized at the end.
Zheng Yaozu nodded, then looked at Jun Jinmo and Shen Yao, and earnestly reminded the young couple in front of him, "For the selection competition, you two should handle it impartially. There is no need to give your eldest brother and the others special treatment."
Even though Yaoyao told the big leader today that one should not use connections, he still had to explain clearly in advance what he should explain, to avoid someone finding fault with him and embarrassing his granddaughter.
Frankly speaking, if he really wanted to force someone in, it would not be difficult to suppress it with his power and status. But Zheng Yaozu was not in a good position to deal with such bad practices.
His Zheng family has been upright and honest for generations. No matter whether it is power or wealth, they will only fight for it based on their own abilities and will not take any shortcuts.
"Okay!" Shen Yao and Jun Jinmo looked at each other and responded in unison.
Then, she picked up the bag from her side, took out thirteen red fruits from it and placed them in front of Zheng Yaozu, "Grandpa, this is a red fruit. Eating it can increase a person's internal strength by twenty years."
Shen Yao didn't show favoritism towards anyone and gave one to everyone, distributing them very fairly.
The time left for the assessment is very short. At this moment, what everyone needs most is to take the Vermillion Fruit. As long as the internal strength is increased, the speed of the eldest brother and the others' cultivation will increase several times more than before.
Originally, she wanted her family to follow one step at a time and use the spirit stones to assist them in their cultivation.
But who suddenly changed the situation?
Therefore, when encountering special events, we have to treat them specially!
What's more, there are a lot of these things in her and Ajin's space, so it's not surprising at all.
However, one cannot take too much at one time, otherwise, once the internal energy cannot be digested in time, the person's body will become extremely uncomfortable, or even explode and die.
Shen Yao still remembered that when she first transplanted the red fruit tree from the fairyland to the space, it was only such a small tree with only six fruits on it.
At that time, this thing was particularly precious.
But since her space merged with Jun Jinmo's, as the speed increased, the small tree had long since grown into a towering tree.
In addition, the two of them threw the red fruit cores they ate into the soil of the medicine garden, and many fruit trees grew there later. Therefore, she has no shortage of this thing now.
To be honest, the red fruit, which is rare in this world and the ancient martial arts world, is worthless to her and her own Ah Jin.
After all, she had too much space for this kind of fruit.
With more than thirty big trees, how few fruits can there be?
Besides, the time in the space is long, and anything planted in it will mature very quickly. So in these years, she and A Jin have never worried about the problem of cultivation resources.
When Zheng Yaozu heard Shen Yao say that the red fruit on the tea table was actually something good, his eyes lit up immediately. He reached out and picked up one to look at it carefully.
He moved very carefully, not even daring to use too much force with his fingertips, for fear of crushing the rare treasure in his hands.
This fruit is slightly larger than an egg and as red as blood, and its rich aroma attracts people every minute and every second.
The more Zheng Yaozu looked at it, the greedier he became, and he wanted to swallow the fruit in his hand immediately.
However, while he was pleasantly surprised, he also felt upset.
When Zheng Yaozu thought about the fact that his granddaughter had such a wonderful treasure in her storage bag, but had never revealed even a little bit of it to him, let alone given it to him to eat, he felt his heart was broken.
He glanced at Shen Yao and complained with grievance, "My dear granddaughter, since you have such a good treasure to improve your internal strength, why didn't you give me a few before?"
In fact, Zheng Yaozu wanted to ask, if there was no selection of team members this time, then would his granddaughter never have taken out the red fruit?
Unfortunately, when he saw his granddaughter's pretty face smiling, he had to ask the question in a more tactful way.
"It's not too late to take it out now." Seeing the old man's hurt expression, Shen Yao blinked and smiled, "Grandpa, the red fruit is good, but a person can only eat one in a year. Eating too much will kill you."
It's not that she was stingy and didn't want to give more, but she was afraid that if she gave too much at once, her grandfather would be greedy and couldn't help but eat a few more, which would definitely cause trouble.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yaozu's desire to ask for a few more red fruits instantly disappeared.
Compared to this red fruit that can increase a person's internal strength by twenty years at a time, his life is of course more important.
He wanted to live a few more decades so that he could follow his darling granddaughter to explore the ancient martial arts world.
Zheng Yaozu put away his own fruit and said to his three sons and nine grandsons, "Okay, each of you take a red fruit and eat it in your room. Then practice martial arts well and don't let Yaoyao down."
After saying that, he was the first to stand up from the sofa, and then walked quickly towards his room.
He had to go back to his room quickly to digest the goodies Yaoyao had given him. If he kept them overnight, he would definitely suffer from insomnia all night.
Seeing that the old man disappeared in the living room in the blink of an eye, Zheng Rongli and others did not delay. They reached out and picked up their own red fruits from the tea table, and called their wives back to their room.
