In the face of his brother's questioning, Fang Yuan didn't speak and continued to eat his breakfast. He knew his brother's character well. Fangzheng couldn't keep his composure.
Sure enough, Fangzheng saw that his brother didn't even look at him, as if he was air. In the next moment, he shouted with a dissatisfied tone, "Brother, what did you do to Shen Cui? Since she came out of your room yesterday, she cried loudly. I tried to comfort her, but she cried even more fiercely. "
Fang Yuan looked up at his brother with an expressionless face.
Fangzheng frowned and stared at his brother, waiting for his answer.
The atmosphere became more and more tense.
However, Fang Yuan only glanced at him, then lowered his head and continued to eat.
His brother, Fangzheng, suddenly became flustered. Fang Yuan's attitude was simply looking down on him. He slammed the table in anger and shouted, "Guyue, Fang Yuan, how can you be like this! She's just a little girl, but she has served you for so many years. I've seen her gentleness and consideration for you. Yes, I know you're disappointed, and I can understand your decadence. You only have a C grade aptitude, but you can't vent your anger on others because of your own experience. This is unfair to her! "
Before he finished speaking, Fang Yuan suddenly stood up and raised his hand like lightning.
Slap!
With a crisp sound, Fangzheng received a solid slap in the face.
Fangzheng covered his right cheek and took two steps back with a face full of shock.
"Bastard, what kind of tone are you using to talk to your brother like this?! That Shen Cui is just a little maid. Have you forgotten that I'm your brother because of a little girl? "Fang Yuan reprimanded in a low voice.
Fangzheng reacted, and the pain on his face was transmitted to his nervous system. He widened his eyes and gasped for breath. He said in disbelief, "Brother, you hit me? You've never hit me since we were young! Yes, I was tested to have an A grade aptitude, and you're only a C grade. But you can't blame me. This is all God's arrangement … "
Pa!
Before Fangzheng could finish, Fang Yuan gave him another backhand slap.
Fangzheng covered his face with both hands. He was stunned.
"Naive fool, what do you remember! How have I taken care of you since you were young? When our parents died, we lived in poverty. Uncle and Aunt only gave us one new dress for the New Year. Did I wear it? Who did I put it on? You loved to eat candied porridge when you were little, so I would ask the kitchen to make an extra bowl for you every day. When you were bullied by others, who helped you get back at them? There are other things, but I don't want to talk about them. Hmm, now you're talking to me like this because of a maidservant, questioning me? "
Fangzheng's face turned red. His lips trembled. He was embarrassed and angry, but he couldn't say a word to refute.
Because what Fang Yuan said was the truth!
"Forget it." Fang Yuan sneered, "Since you abandoned your own parents and recognized someone else, what am I, your brother, to you?"
"Brother, how can you say that? You know that I've longed for the warmth of a family since I was young, I … "Fangzheng quickly tried to explain.
Fang Yuan waved his hand to stop him from continuing, "From today onwards, you're not my brother, and I'm not your brother anymore."
"Brother!" Fangzheng was shocked and opened his mouth to speak.
At this time, Fang Yuan spoke again, "Don't you like Shen Cui? Don't worry, I didn't do anything to her. She's still a virgin, a virgin. Give me six pieces of Yuan stone, and I'll give her to you. From now on, she'll be your personal maid. "
"Brother, why did you …" Suddenly exposed, Fangzheng panicked and was caught off guard.
But at the same time, he was relieved that the thing he was most worried about did not come true.
That night not long ago, Shen Cui personally helped him bathe.
Although nothing substantial happened, Fangzheng could never forget the gentleness of that night. Every time he thought of Shen Cui, thinking of her deft hands and soft red lips, his heart would palpitate.
The feelings of youth had already accumulated and sprouted in the young man's chest.
So when he found out about Shen Cui's strange condition yesterday evening, his heart suddenly surged with anger. He immediately gave up on refining the Moonlight Gu and turned around to look for Fang Yuan, asking for an explanation.
Seeing that Fangzheng did not agree, Fang Yuan frowned, "It's normal for a man and a woman to be in love. You should be honest, what's the point of hiding? Of course, if you don't want to exchange, then forget it. "
Fangzheng suddenly panicked, "Exchange, why wouldn't I exchange? But I don't have enough Yuan stone for six pieces. "
As he said this, he took out his money bag, his face flushed red.
Fang Yuan took the bag and found that there were six pieces inside, but one of them was half the size of a complete Yuan stone. He immediately knew that Fangzheng had absorbed the primeval essence from the Yuan stone in order to refine the Moonlight Gu as soon as possible.
As more of the natural primeval essence was absorbed, the volume of the Yuan stone became smaller and lighter.
Although it was only five and a half pieces, Fang Yuan also knew that this was all the Yuan stone Fangzheng had. He did not have any savings, and these six Yuan stones were given to him by his aunt and uncle not long ago.
"I'll accept the Yuan stone, you can go now." Fang Yuan's expression was cold as he put the bag into his arms.
"Brother …" Fangzheng wanted to say something.
Fang Yuan slightly raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "Before I change my mind, you better disappear from my sight."
Fangzheng's heart tightened. He gritted his teeth and finally turned around to leave.
Stepping out of the inn, he subconsciously covered his chest, feeling waves of guilt in his heart. There was a feeling in the darkness that told him that he seemed to have lost something very important at this moment.
But his heart quickly warmed up. He thought of Shen Cui and that night that haunted him.
"I can finally have you officially, Cui Cui." He did not look back and walked out of Fang Yuan's sight.
Fang Yuan was expressionless. He stood there for a while before slowly sitting down.
The bright and beautiful sunlight shone through the window onto his indifferent face, making people feel cold just by looking at it.
Business in the cafeteria was somewhat quiet. There were more and more people on the street, and the noise made the silence even more obvious.
The breakfast was already cold. The waiter came over and asked if he needed to reheat it.
Fang Yuan turned a deaf ear to him. His eyes were like a cloud of smoke, as if he was recalling something.
The waiter waited for a while, but saw that Fang Yuan was still in a daze and did not respond. He could only rub his nose and walk away resentfully.
After a while, Fang Yuan's eyes focused.
The memories in his heart were like smoke, gradually fading away.
He returned to the real world. The sunlight shone in, illuminating more than half of the table. The heat from the food had already dissipated, and the noise of the people on the street could be heard.
Through his clothes, he reached out to touch the five and a half Yuan stone in his bosom. The corner of his mouth revealed a bitter and mocking smile.
But the smile disappeared as soon as it appeared.
"Waiter, take this food down and heat it up." Fang Yuan looked at the food and called out lightly.
At this moment, his eyes were incomparably clear.
…
"What! Your brother said that? "In the hall, his uncle frowned and his voice was cold.
His aunt sat at the side, speechless as she looked at the bright red palm print on Fangzheng's face.
"Yes, when I saw my brother, he was eating breakfast at the inn. That's the whole story." Fangzheng replied respectfully.
His uncle's brows furrowed even deeper, forming a 'Chuan' character.
After a few breaths, he sighed deeply and said in a serious tone, "Fangzheng, my child, you have to remember, the maid Shen Cui is not Fang Yuan's private property, but we assigned her to him. How can he sell her? Moreover, if you wanted her, you should have told us earlier, we would have just assigned her to you. "
"Ah?" Fangzheng was dumbfounded.
His uncle waved his hand, "You can leave first. You gave all your Yuan stone to Fang Yuan, I will give you another six. Remember, use them well on your Gu refinement. We will be proud of you if you win first place. "
"Father, I am ashamed …" Fangzheng was so moved that tears flowed down his face.
His uncle sighed, "Go, go, go back to your room to refine the Gu, you have already wasted a lot of time."
Fangzheng left, and his uncle showed an angry and ferocious expression.
Bang!
He fiercely slapped the table and growled in a low voice, "Hmph, this little bastard, using our people to do business, he is really cunning!"
His aunt hurriedly consoled him, "Master, calm down. It is only six Yuan stone. "
"You are a woman, what do you know! He, Fang Yuan, only has C grade talent, to refine the Moonlight Gu, he needs to use Yuan stone. With his first Gu refinement skills, six Yuan stone is definitely not enough. But now he has twelve, it is more than enough. "His uncle gritted his teeth in hatred.
He continued, "A Gu Master's cultivation, as long as they have enough resources and are not stuck at a bottleneck, it will be very fast. In two to three years, the clan will be able to nurture a Rank two Gu Master. The lower Fang Yuan's cultivation is, the smaller the chance of getting back the family property in a year's time. Right now he is young and has just started cultivating, we will stop him and let him fall behind his peers at the starting stage. The academy's resources are awarded to outstanding students. With his talent, once he falls behind, he will not be able to get any resources, and without resources to aid his cultivation, he will fall further behind. If this vicious cycle continues, will he still have the ability to inherit the family property in a year's time? "
Aunt did not understand, "Even if we don't stop him, he will at most be Rank one middle stage in a year's time. Master, you are Rank two, why are you afraid of him? "
Uncle stomped his feet in anger, "Woman, your hair is long but your knowledge is short! With my status as an elder, do I have to fight with a junior? It is reasonable for him to ask for the inheritance back, we cannot stop him directly, we can only act according to the clan rules. The clan rules state clearly: To start a family at the age of sixteen, one must have at least Rank one middle stage cultivation. If not, it means that Fang Yuan does not have the qualifications to waste the clan's resources. Do you understand what I am saying? "
Aunt was enlightened.
Uncle squinted his eyes, a sinister glint flashing in them. He shook his head slightly, sighing, "This Fang Yuan is too smart, too cunning. He can even see through the seduction, what kind of intelligence is this? He is so scheming at such a young age, terrifying! I originally wanted to plot against him, but he moved out directly. I also wanted to rely on Shen Cui to monitor and interfere with him, but he sent me away and even earned six Yuan stone. "
"Sigh, if only he could be as stupid as Fangzheng. Oh right, you have to treat Fangzheng better from now on, he is an A grade talent. Moreover, I can see that he is very unconvinced towards Fang Yuan, he is very unresigned. This mood is good, you have to guide it well. I have a feeling that he will be the best weapon to deal with Fang Yuan in the future! "
…
In the blink of an eye, another two days passed.
There was no light in the room of the inn. The moonlight shone in, covering the floor with frost.
On the bed, Fang Yuan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, mobilizing his green bronze primordial essence, concentrating on refining the Liquor worm.
A small part of the Liquor worm's body was dyed green bronze, but its will was still tenacious, constantly struggling in the smoky primordial essence.
Fang Yuan's refining progress was not smooth, it could be said to be very difficult.
"I spent a full two days and two nights, only resting for two hours a day, consuming twelve Yuan stone, but I only refined one-fifteenth of the progress. According to the time, in the next few days, someone will succeed in refining the Gu. "
Fang Yuan was clear about the situation.
But his talent was originally inferior, and now the Liquor worm's will to survive was extremely tenacious, much higher than the ordinary Moonlight Gu. It was normal for him to fall behind in this situation.
"Falling behind for a while is nothing, as long as I have the Liquor worm …" Fang Yuan's heart was like a mirror, without a trace of anxiety or discouragement.
But at this moment, the Liquor worm suddenly curled up, curling into a ball.
"Not good, the Gu worm's backlash!" Fang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes. In front of him, the Liquor worm had curled into a round glutinous ball, suddenly bursting with a dazzling white light.
It was staking it all on one throw!
Suddenly, Fang Yuan felt a strong will coming from the Liquor worm, directly passing through the primordial essence and descending into his primordial sea in his aperture.
The situation of a Gu worm's backlash was very rare. Only those Gu worms with extremely strong wills would try their best to succeed or die trying.
If it were any other youth, they would definitely panic in the face of such a situation.
But although Fang Yuan was shocked, he did not panic. Instead, he was a little happy. "It's good to stake it all on one throw. As long as I can withstand this backlash, the Liquor worm's will will will be greatly weakened. But next, I will have to concentrate all my energy to resist the impact of this will, without the slightest external interference. Otherwise, it will be bad, sigh … I hope no one will disturb me during this period. "
He finished thinking, and was about to activate the primordial essence in his aperture to meet the will. Entangle with it, and fight for three hundred rounds.
But at this moment, something strange happened again!
A Gu worm appeared in the center of his aperture, above the primordial sea.
Rumble!
This Gu worm burst out with an extremely strong aura.
This aura was like the Milky Way pouring down, or the eruption of a mountain torrent, or like a horrifying beast whose dignity was violated, opening its scarlet eyes to see who dared to violate its territory!
"This is the Spring Autumn Cicada?!" Seeing this Gu worm, Fang Yuan was completely shocked!!
