Chapter 118 Water Attribute Magical Artifact

"It's the wood soil spirit root?"

Hu Yuyuan, who was dressed in a moon-white long gown, sat behind the desk, looked at the old man in white who bowed in front of him and frowned.

Hu Weiyi's face was gloomy, but he could only respond, "Yes, patriarch."

Hu Yuyuan pondered for a moment, and then said, "In this way, this matter is a bit tricky. I remember that the Jin City Lord's family has dual spiritual root qualifications?"

"Exactly." Hu Weiyi nodded, with a hint of joy on his face, but he said in a low voice, "The method of dual cultivation of the Hedao School, if the difference in aptitude between the two is too large, it will play a role in the cultivation of the one with the better aptitude." The effect will be negligible. In this way, I am afraid that this marriage will fail."

"You are right, but the last time the city lord's mansion came, they only said that they wanted a female cultivator of water spirit roots, but they didn't ask for qualifications.

Yi Zhi and their father and daughter returned not long ago, but they didn't know that there was a female cultivator with dual spiritual roots among the juniors of my clan.

That being the case, it shouldn't be a problem if the candidate for my Hu family's marriage this time has the qualifications of the Three Spirit Roots. "Hu Yuyuan smiled slightly.

"Patriarch, I don't think this is appropriate. If qualifications are not required, why would the old city lord propose marriage with my Hu family? What good will it do for his city lord's mansion?" Hu Weiyi continued unwillingly.

Hu Yuyuan shook his head with a smile, and said, "For justice, the City Lord's Mansion wants to marry my Hu family, but it didn't say that Jin Ziqi can only form a Taoist couple with my Hu family."

Hu Weiyi was slightly taken aback, and asked doubtfully, "The patriarch means that the City Lord's Mansion intends to marry our Hu family, but it may not be possible for us to marry women from the Hu family? But if this is the case, it is even more unreasonable. Since it is of no benefit to the City Lord's Mansion, Why did the old city lord bring this up?"

"It's not difficult to understand. Let me ask you, if you were the Lord of Jin City, which family in Zongyuan City would you choose as your marriage partner?" Hu Yuyuan raised his eyebrows.

"Naturally, it's the Wu family in Jinghu. The City Lord's Mansion and the Wu family have always been friends. They have been related for several generations, and the strength of the Wu family is now somewhat stronger than our other three families." Hu Weiyi said without hesitation.

Hu Yuyuan nodded first, and said, "The Wu family is really powerful now." After speaking, he shook his head and said with a smile, "But because of the great power of the Wu family, the old city lord will not continue to form an alliance with the Wu family."

"Why?" Hu Weiyi asked puzzled.

"You said just now that the Wu family is stronger than the other three families, so how is the Wu family compared to the City Lord's Mansion?" Hu Yuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly.

Hu Weiyi thought for a while and said, "The City Lord's Mansion is stronger, but the difference between the two is not too much."

Speaking of this, Hu Weiyi's expression changed, and he said in surprise, "Patriarch, you mean that the old city lord is afraid that the Wu family will become bigger, so he wants to use the marriage to join hands with my Hu family to suppress the Wu family?

But this is unreasonable. Since my uncle died, my Hu family has gradually declined. Now the Pengze Xu family and the Yishan Mo family are stronger than my Hu family. Why did the old city lord choose our Hu family? up? "

Hu Yuyuan sneered, and said in a cold tone, "Are you confused? No, the Jin family is very smart. He wants to marry our Hu family, not because of our Hu family's strength, but because of our Hu family's strength. It’s a soft persimmon, easy to handle.”

"Then patriarch, why do you still have to agree to the marriage?" Hu Weiyi asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength. Since the old man despises my Hu family so much, why don't we give him a surprise?" Hu Yuyuan's eyes flashed, and he sneered.

Hu Weiyi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then said in shock, "Patriarch, do you..."

Hu Yuyuan raised his eyes, shook his head with a smile, and said, "Not yet, but soon."

"Congratulations to the patriarch!" Hu Weiyi saluted immediately.

"It's still too early to say these things now." Hu Yuyuan waved his hand indifferently, and said seriously, "But the marriage with the City Lord's Mansion is imperative right now."

Hearing this, Hu Weiyi's face turned pale instantly, and he hurriedly said, "But now in the clan, only Ruyi meets the requirements, but Ruyi..."

Hu Yuyuan waved his hand and interrupted, "Needless to say, I have made up my mind about the marriage. The Lord of Jin City once said that he would take all the income from Bishuidongtian in two years' time as compensation for this matter. At that time, you can choose one item first among them." .”

"Patriarch!" Hu Weiyi shouted unwillingly.

"It's useless to talk too much, just go ahead."

Hu Yuyuan waved his hand lightly, and a gentle force wrapped Hu Weiyi's body and pushed him out of the door.

Looking at the study room with the closed door in front of him, Hu Weiyi's expression changed for a while, and he left after half a stick of incense.

……

In the simply furnished bedroom, a girl in white is sitting cross-legged on the only bed in the house, closing her eyes and practicing.

Beside the girl, a green snake with several black lines on its head coiled its body into a ball, lying on the soft pillow, sleeping soundly like no one else was there.

There was a slight noise outside the door, and the girl in white moved her ears slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She immediately opened her eyes, jumped off the bed, opened the door and ran towards the yard.

The green snake on the bed was awakened by the girl's movements, but it just lazily raised its head and glanced outside the door, then lowered its head regardless and fell asleep.

"Father, you are finally back!"

As soon as Hu Yizhi, who was dressed in a moon-white robe, stepped into the courtyard gate, he saw Liu Xiaolu happily greet him.

Stretching out his hand to touch the top of the girl's hair, Hu Yizhi smiled and said, "You child, I only went out for half a day, why is this?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiaolu puffed up her cheeks and said in a muffled voice, "I haven't gone out for almost a month. If you pour some water on my head, it will sprout in a few days."

Seeing this, Hu Yizhi shook his head dumbfoundingly and said, "It's almost the end of the month, there must be more business in Uncle Lou's shop at the end of the month, and I will take you to Zongyuan City to play with Uncle Lou at the beginning of next month."

"Really!" Liu Xiaolu said happily.

"Well, of course it's true." Hu Yizhi nodded with a smile.

But Liu Xiaolu suddenly thought of what Hu Yizhi had said, and immediately showed a worried look on his face, and said hesitantly, "But, didn't my father say before that I won't be allowed to go out and walk around..."

Hu Yizhi heard the words but didn't answer, just smiled mysteriously, took out a small red brocade box from his arms, and handed it to the girl beside him.

Liu Xiaolu took it over and took a look, and saw a silver bracelet engraved with exquisite patterns in a small brocade box. There was a faint blue light on the bracelet, and it was actually a magic weapon of water attribute.

"It's so beautiful! But why does it look familiar?" Liu Xiaolu raised his arm and looked at his left wrist, only to realize that this magic bracelet is exactly the same as the plain silver bracelet on his hand. Eight points alike.

Hu Yizhi nodded and said with a smile, "This is a high-grade magic weapon of water attribute that Uncle Lou specially made according to the bracelet you often wear. With it, the Wu family will not be afraid to see anything."

"Thank you father, thank you Grandpa Lou!" Hearing this, Liu Xiaolu hugged the brocade box excitedly and threw himself into Hu Yizhi's arms.

Hu Yizhi shook his head, with a look of helplessness on his face, stretched out his hand to pull the girl in white away from him, and said, "Even so, you must remember not to have any physical contact with others lightly, otherwise under the detection of your spiritual sense, you The nature of the spiritual root still cannot be concealed."
