Chapter 44: Secrets

He felt that the Heavenly Spirit Tree was growing rapidly, and the roots were slowly stretching out, spreading in all directions, and eventually it would connect with the three trees, reaching the point where the breath and the root system were connected together, and at that time, the speed of immortality would be faster.

The three trees are planted in the southeast, southwest, and back corners of the yard to form a regular triangle, and the Tianling tree is planted in the center of the regular triangle, at a distance of twelve meters.

Chu Li sensed the Heavenly Spirit Tree, estimating that it would only take two days for it to take full root, with the assistance of the breath of the three trees, it grew faster than expected, and it could sprout after ten days.

Now it looks like it's still a dead branch, with no signs of survival.

Xue Ling glanced at the dead branch from time to time, shook his head, and didn't understand what Chu Li was tossing, just planting a tree, sticking a dead branch into the ground, and looking at it like a baby, inexplicable.

She brought the food together, filled the stone table in the small pavilion, and came to Chu Li: "Childe, you can eat." ”

Chu Li waved his hand.

He was sensing the Heavenly Spirit Tree, and suddenly found that it was not only absorbing the breath of the three trees, but also exhaling a trace of breath, this breath was the purest aura, much purer than any kind of aura he had ever seen, floating in the air, slowly spreading.

This breath was different from the breath in its body, but when it spread, it landed on the three trees, and he could feel their vitality flourishing.

He was obsessed with it, not knowing how time passed.

A quarter of an hour later, Xue Ling looked at the small pavilion and said in a low voice, "Childe, the food is going to be cold!"

Chu Li turned his head to glare at her, and Xue Ling looked at him unto be outdone, his round eyes unblinking.

"You......" Chu Li sighed, shook his head helplessly, and got up to clap his hands.

Xue Ling hurriedly brought the basin, he washed his hands, entered the small pavilion, sat down and picked up the jade chopstick: "If you don't sleep enough, make up for it at noon." ”

"Yes. Xue Ling poured the washing water and entered the small pavilion to stand quietly beside him, exuding a faint fragrance on her body.

Chu Li took a bite of side dishes, suddenly took a sip of wine, thinking about the pure aura just now, and thinking that the aura of the Heavenly Spirit Tree was much purer than his own internal force, and using its aura to cultivate, it was much stronger than his own internal force, and he could even use his aura to purify his own internal force.

Thinking of this, he was in a good mood, and drank the white jade cup in one gulp.

Xue Ling held the altar and poured it for him.

"Yo, eat. Su Ru pushed the door in, wore an apricot yellow Luo shirt fluttering, curled up in front of the small pavilion, and glanced at the stone table: "It's quite rich!"

Chu Li smiled: "The manager has eaten?"

"As soon as I finished eating, I hurried over to see the Heavenly Spirit Tree. Su Ru waved his jade hand, came to the dead branch of the Heavenly Spirit Tree, looked down, frowned, and said, "Are you alive?"

"Already alive. Chu Li smiled: "You can see it tomorrow." ”

"There won't be a problem, right?" Su Ru looked at it carefully, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that it was a dead branch, and she didn't feel like she was alive.

Chu Li put down the white jade cup and white jade chopstick, came to her side, and said with a smile: "How can it be so fast." ”

"That's right. Su Ru smiled, she was too anxious.

The Heavenly Spirit Tree is very important, if you really want to live, accelerate the growth of the elixir, Miss's cultivation will be faster, and it is related to the status of the entire Yuqi Island.

She got up and came to the pavilion, waved her hand and said, "You eat yours." ”

Xue Ling stepped forward to salute, Chu Li returned to the small pavilion and sat down, and continued to drink and eat: "Manager, I don't know something. ”

"Is there anything else you don't know?" said Su Ru with a smile.

Xue Ling came out of the pavilion and quickly served tea, Su Ru took it and took a sip: "Say it." ”

Chu Li said: "Is Aunt Xiao young, or is she deeply cultivated, so she looks young?"

"Miss, Auntie, ten years older than Miss. ”

"It seems that the cultivation has been successful. Chu Li said, Xiao Yueling looked similar to Xiao Qi's age, not only in appearance, but also in temperament.

"Well, my aunt and grandmother are cultivation wizards, not inferior to Miss. ”

"I wonder where she comes from?"

Su Rubai glanced at him: "Why are you asking this?"

"I know that Aunt Xiao is in the realm of Heaven and Heaven, and she can't reach it in the Guogong Mansion, so she must join another faction, right?"

"Looks like you know about the experience, too. Su Ru nodded and said, "But this set is not suitable for aunt and grandmother, in short, this is a secret, you still don't know it." ”

Chu Li looked at her curiously.

Su Ru shook her head.

"Since it's a secret, it's not because of experience, it's not because of adventure,...... Could it be that Aunt Xiao has been in a certain sect since she was a child? She can reach the realm of a grandmaster outside the heavens at a young age, and she must be a famous sect, nothing more than the four major sects, the Great Leiyin Temple and the King Kong Temple, the Qinglu Cliff and the Ziyun Mountain,...... Aunt Xiao is wearing a Taoist robe, it's Qinglu Cliff, right?"

Su Rubai glanced at him and snorted: "Just you are smart!"

Chu Li saw that she didn't deny it, and nodded thoughtfully.

The Guogong Mansion and the Wulin Sect are naturally enemies, and the Guogong Mansion is a sharp blade used by the royal family to suppress the Wulin Sect.

Chu Li frowned: "This move ......"

He shook his head, this is not a good move, how can the royal family not know that the Yiguo Mansion will be suspicious, and even severely punished by the royal family.

"There's no way around it!" Su Ru sighed: "My aunt's personality is different from that of Miss, she has been a maverick since she was a child, and her ancestors were very spoiled at that time, and no one could take care of it, so she sneaked out of the country mansion and pretended to be an ordinary person, but she fell into Qinglu Cliff by chance." ”

Chu Li shook his head, Xiao Yueling's move was tantamount to roasting the Guogong Mansion on the fire.

"The ancestor announced that my aunt and grandmother were dead. Su Ru sighed: "At that time, there was a lot of trouble, and my aunt and grandmother had many suitors, including the eldest son of the Renguo Mansion. ”

"And then?"

Su Ru sighed: "My aunt was originally called Xiao **, but after entering Qinglu Cliff, she changed her name to Xiao Yueling, and never changed back, never regarded herself as a person from the Guogong Mansion, and said that Xiao ** was dead." ”

"Xiao **......" Chu Li thoughtfully: "The county lord of the Renguo Mansion is called Lu Yurong, right?"

Last time he was assassinated by the Renguo Mansion, he came back to learn about the Renguo Mansion, and knew that it was likely to be Lu Yurong who instructed people to attack them, the outstanding county lord of the Renguo Mansion, and a very intelligent person.

Su Ru said: "Lu Yurong's father has nothing to do with her aunt and grandmother. ”

Chu Li was skeptical.

Su Rubai snorted with a glance: "You know what to do with these things, they are harmful and useless." ”

Chu Li smiled, and drank the white jade cup.

Xue Ling hugged the altar and filled it for him, put down the wine jar and stood quietly behind him.

Su Ru sighed: "Lu Yurong's father died young, her eldest brother took care of her, and the eldest brother was like a father, but his eldest brother was infatuated with his aunt and grandmother, and when he heard that his aunt and grandmother died, he soon died of depression." ”

Chu Li was stunned.

"At that time, the two national mansions were not enemies, but after the death of the eldest prince of the Renguo Mansion, that's it!"

"Lu Yurong didn't kill Aunt Xiao?"

Lu Yurong just hated, but didn't act, and then the news of her aunt's life leaked, she began to take revenge, her aunt is her eldest brother's favorite person, but also a victim, Lu Yurong felt that everything was the fault of our Guogong Mansion, and announced the death to hide it from the world, and Ming Zhe protected herself. ”

"There's nothing wrong with thinking so. ”

"Alas...... , the two national governments have become enemies, and the feud is getting deeper and deeper. Su Ru shook her head and said, "Under her care, the Renguo Mansion has become stronger and more aggressive...... Now that you know, how do you feel?"

Chu Li shook his head, he really had nothing to say.

He drank it all, put down the white jade cup, and muttered, "The royal family also knows about Aunt Xiao's affairs, right?"

"The Renguo Mansion knows, how can the royal family not know?" Su Ru pouted: "So our Guogong Mansion was snubbed, otherwise, how could we be bullied by the Renguo Mansion!"

"Where's Miss's mother?" Chu Li said, "It seems that she is also a disciple of Qinglu Cliff, right?"

"You know that, too?"

"Isn't Aunt Xiao called Senior Sister?"

"Well, Madam is also a disciple of Qinglu Cliff. ”

Chu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly, the royal family is not taboo about who is taboo in the Yiguo Mansion?

"It's also a coincidence. Su Ru shook her head: "The master hid his identity and walked in the martial arts, met his wife, and fell in love at first sight. ”

"What happened later?" Chu Li frowned: "Did you enter the mansion?"

"Nope. Su Ru said helplessly: "After Mrs. knew the identity of the master, she took the initiative to leave, and she was pregnant at that time, and she died of dystocia when she gave birth to Miss, and Miss was carried back to the house and raised by her ancestors. ”

Chu Li sighed, as soon as he heard this, he could guess Xiao Qi's situation, it was likely that he would not be able to understand his father's heart, the old ancestor had passed away for several years, and she would definitely have a hard time.

"Fortunately, the two sons and the second lady have a close relationship with the young lady. Su Ru smiled: "Miss is also lucky." ”

"Yes......" Chu Li nodded.

The rule of this world is the inheritance system of the eldest son, the eldest prince will inherit the national government, and the fourth prince has no power to inherit, let alone the girl, and there is a second lady above, and Xiao Qi is the third lady.

His circle of activities is very narrow, he has not seen the fourth prince and the second lady of the eldest prince at present, he has only heard rumors about them, the eldest prince Xiao Tieying is wise and martial, the grandfather of the country is in retreat and cultivates, everything in the mansion is controlled by the eldest prince, and he is the head of the mansion.

The fourth son, Xiao Baihe, has excellent qualifications, he only practices martial arts without asking about the world, and it is said that he has traveled out of the mansion, and the disciples of the Guogong Mansion have to go to the martial arts to break through, and if they are enemies of the martial arts, they must fully understand the martial arts.

The second lady Xiao Shi is not skilled in martial arts, but she is very beautiful, and she is known as the first beauty in the big season, but it is a pity that she hardly goes out of Yushi Island, and even if she comes out, she is covered with white veil.

The third lady, Xiao Qi, is very wise and helps the eldest son to deal with government affairs, and is a right-hand man.

"That young lady's martial arts cultivation is not Qinglu Cliff martial arts?"

"Of course not!" Su Ru shook her head and said: "It's the ancient curiosity that Madame got from the adventure, but the cultivation is very difficult, if it weren't for the Purple Styx Flower, Miss would still be struggling to trek, and it would be much better with the Purple Styx Flower!"

Chu Li nodded thoughtfully.

Su Rubai glanced at him and snorted: "You are so curious, you can't do it!"

Chu Li said with a smile: "Knowing this, I can also let go of my hands and feet when I do things, I am foggy, my thoughts cannot be reached, and I can't use my hands and feet." ”

"These are better rotten in the stomach. Su Ru turned her head to glare at Xue Ling, who hurriedly took a step back.

Chu Li smiled: "What other spirit grass does Miss want to plant?"

"There are also several medicines, all of which are difficult to grow and grow very slowly. Su Ru said: "I'm getting seeds, I'll send them over in a few days!"

Chu Li nodded.

"How's your Vajra Do'er Divine Skill doing?"

"Progress is slow!" Chu Li shook his head: "I think there is a problem with the cultivation method, and I need to change it." ”

"Don't worry, the Vajra Doom Divine Skill is to be practiced for a lifetime!" Su Ru got up and waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't give it away, hurry up and eat, it's cold!"
