Tomb Raider: Family Eternal, Start with Swallowed Stars

Huo’s Mansion!

After all the guests had left, Huo Xiangu brought Huo Xiuxiu to a pavilion in the garden.

“Xiuxiu, tell grandma honestly, why did you say that today?

Grandma wanted to betroth you to Chu Huang as his wife today, but what he said later made it very clear.

Even if you marry him, you can only be a concubine and will not be recognized by anyone.

Grandma wanted to refuse, but why did you agree? Do you know what the consequences will be once you agree?

No wedding, no certificate!

After Chu Huang sends someone to pick you up, you will only be a concubine for the rest of your life.

You will also become a complete laughing stock in Kyoto, do you know that?”

In the pavilion, Huo Xiangu had a complicated expression, and looked at Huo Xiuxiu in front of her earnestly, and said with a sigh.

“Grandma, things are not as serious as you think, and it hasn’t come to that point yet.”

Huo Xiuxiu pursed her lips and smiled, reaching out to hold Huo Xiangu’s hand, her pretty face very solemnly said:

“Grandma, I know that you wanted me to become the wife of the head of the Chu family at the beginning, but now Chu Huang has no plan to marry a wife.

If so, then give up. This is not your character. So what if I marry and become a concubine?

You have to believe in your granddaughter. Even if I become a concubine, Chu Huang will definitely be very happy with my appearance.

It may not be impossible for me to become Chu Huang’s real wife in the future. By then, I will become the wife of the head of the Chu family and can still help the Huo family.

You have to have confidence in your granddaughter.”

Hearing what Huo Xiuxiu said, Huo Xiangu couldn’t help but feel mixed emotions, and her expression was complicated.

She patted the back of Huo Xiuxiu’s hand heavily, sighed and said:”Xiuxiu, you have done enough for the Huo family. It’s hard for you this time, but I’m afraid that your happiness in this life will be completely ruined.”

“Grandma, look at what you said, I may not be unhappy if I marry Chu Huang.”

Huo Xiuxiu shook her head and smiled:”Chu Huang has a handsome face, a majestic figure, an extraordinary temperament, and he is the head of a clan. It is not wrong for me to marry such a wonderful man.”

“well……”

Even though she said that, Huo Xiangu still looked disappointed and sighed deeply.

…

On the other side, Chu Mansion!

“” Clan leader, are you really planning to take Huo Xiuxiu as your concubine?”

Under the parasol tree, Huo Youxue was brewing tea while cautiously looking at Chu Huang, who was lazily lying on a rocking chair opposite him, and asked softly.

530″Why, you are against me taking her as a concubine?”

Chu Huang said with his eyes slightly closed and expressionless.

Hearing this, Huo Youxue was shocked and shook her head quickly:”Of course not, Youxue is just a maid, how can she be qualified to care about the clan leader taking a concubine, I was just curious and couldn’t help asking this question.”

“Ah……”

Chu Huang slowly opened his eyes, looked at her meaningfully, and then slowly said:”Huo Xiuxiu is quite good. Her appearance and temperament are both top-notch. It’s no big deal to take her as a concubine.

I know that her Huo family has other purposes, but so what? The future is unknown. Maybe it’s true that stealing a chicken will lose the rice.”

“With the charisma of the clan leader, it is natural that Huo Xiuxiu will be fascinated by him. Huo Youxue smiled and complimented him.

“Okay, you go down first, let me stay here alone for a while.

Chu Huang waved his hand and said

“”Yes, clan leader!”

Upon hearing this, Huo Youxue stood up immediately, bowed respectfully, turned around and left slowly.

Looking at the other party’s leaving back, Chu Huang couldn’t help shaking his head and closed his eyes again.

Chu Huang just did it for the sake of taking Huo Xiuxiu as a concubine.

He could probably guess what Huo Xiangu was thinking.

But again, if Huo Xiuxiu really entered his Chu Mansion, it was still unknown who Huo Xiuxiu would listen to in the end.

Besides, Huo Xiuxiu, this girl, was in line with his aesthetic point in terms of appearance and temperament, so it didn’t matter if she took her as a concubine, since she wasn’t the legal wife or the clan leader’s wife anyway.

…

Time passed slowly, two days later!

Early in the morning, Chu Huang woke up early and went to the study in the backyard.

He always remembered that today was the day when the gravity room was completely renovated.

When he opened the door of the study, the voice of the system in his mind finally began to sound.

“Ding, three days have passed, the small gravity room has been transformed, and the host can check it at any time.”

Opening the entrance of the secret room, the same passage and stairs appeared.

Going down the stairs, I soon arrived at the bottom.

However, unlike the empty underground secret rooms in the past, at the end of these pairs of doors, there was a door made of unknown material.

The door was recognized by face recognition, and Chu Huang’s face had already been recorded.

Click!

As the door opened, what appeared in front of Chu Huang was a room full of science fiction.

The room was not big, only about 300 square meters, and there were all kinds of science fiction scenes that only appeared in movies in the previous life.

“”Beep, hello, dear master, I am the intelligence of the gravity training room, please name me.”

At this moment, a slightly mechanical and cold voice suddenly came from the room.

“Intelligence? Artificial intelligence?”

Chu Huang raised his eyebrows and looked at everything in front of him in surprise.

He didn’t expect that this gravity training room actually had artificial intelligence.

“Since you are a gravity room, let’s call you Xiaozhong”

“Ding, got it. From now on, master can call me Xiaozhong!”

“Ding, I am the intelligent Xiaozhong of the gravity room. I wonder if the master needs me to introduce this gravity room to you?”

“Oh? Then you can introduce yourself to me.”

Chu Huang looked up in surprise, looked around and said

“Ding, this gravity room is about 300 square meters and can accommodate less than 10 people for training at the same time. During training, you can also call Xiaozhong to adjust the gravity.

The upper limit of the adjustable weight of this gravity room is 1 to 100 times. When training, the master must not be too impatient. The super strong gravity will result in shattered internal organs, broken bones and tendons if you are not careful.

Therefore, it is recommended that the master should not train people with too different strengths in the gravity room at the same time.”

After listening to Xiaozhong’s narration, Chu Huang nodded thoughtfully.

“Xiao Zhong, start the gravity training and increase the weight to three times!”

Chu Huang pondered for a moment, then said directly to Xiao Zhong.

Now that the gravity training room is ready, he is naturally a little impatient and is ready to try out how the gravity room works.

“Ding, gravity is rising……”

As Xiaozhong finished speaking, a string of numbers suddenly appeared on the wall not far away.

001…002…003…

When the gravity in the gravity room was increased to three times, Chu Huang frowned.

In his feeling, it seemed that the weight of the entire world became heavier at this moment, and the density of the air around him seemed to be increasing rapidly.

He raised his hand gently, but found that the resistance in the air seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, which was obviously not as natural as the outside world.

However, this level is still far from what Chu Huang is now.

“Gravity continues to increase, up to five times……”

004…005…

When the gravity reached five times, Chu Huang clearly felt that his pressure was increasing.

Even his breathing became heavier, as if a mountain was pressing down on him.

Boom! (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Chu Huang suddenly punched out, and the power in his body surged, causing the air to explode slightly.

But when he punched, he found that his movements became extremely slow, and when his fist was strong, it was not as terrifying as the outside world.

“Huh… Is this the gravity training room? It’s really a treasure. If you train here all year round, even if you don’t know any training methods, your boxing skills will be far better than ordinary people.”

Chu Huang was secretly shocked, but he became more and more satisfied with this gravity room.

Although five times the gravity is already a great burden for him, it is still far from his limit.[]

“Xiao Zhong, continue to increase the gravity until I can no longer bear it.”

As his voice fell, the gravity in the gravity room began to increase again.

006…007…008…009…

When the gravity increased to nine times, Chu Huang only felt that his body was extremely sore, and his bones were constantly creaking.

“breathe……(dbdf) Exhale…inhale……”

Heavy breathing sounds echoed throughout the gravity room. Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, and blood even oozes out of the pores all over his body, staining his clothes red.

“Is this… nine times gravity? It’s really an unimaginably terrible gravity.”

“When the protagonist of Devouring the Universe’s Destiny, a junior warrior, was first exposed to a gravity limit of only nine times.”

“But… But if I only think like this, I will be just another destiny protagonist. What I want is… to surpass all destiny protagonists and break the path that even destiny protagonists cannot break.”

Understanding the incredible gravity, Chu Huang’s body was trembling. He stood up straight and could not bend. His hair was wet with sweat. He clenched his teeth and endured the gravity.

Tearing…

I saw a burst of strength suddenly burst out from his body, bursting his clothes into pieces, revealing perfect muscle lines and dense blood beads.

“Limit… This is not my limit… Increase the gravity to 10 times!”

009… 010…

Plop!

When the gravity was increased to ten times, the air density in the gravity room instantly increased several times.

Chu Huang, who already felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back, suddenly found that there was another mountain behind him.

This sudden weight made Chu Huang careless and he fell to one knee.

Crunch~

Crunch~

Chu Huang clenched his teeth, veins popped all over his body, and his eyes turned red.

“”Get up… for me!”

Chu Huang roared in a low voice, exerting all his strength, tensing his muscles, and slowly stood up from the ground.

He stood like a steel gun, bearing the unprecedented pressure tightly.

After a few minutes, Chu Huang exhaled heavily, and then slowly began to practice boxing.

Under ten times the gravity, the speed of his punches was extremely slow, just like an old man practicing Tai Chi.

In this way, Chu Huang stayed in the gravity room for three hours, and then he walked out of the gravity room exhausted.

His feet seemed to be half filled with heavy lead, and he couldn’t take a full step. He could only walk towards his room step by step.

When he came to the corridor, the whole person seemed like a candle in the wind, which could fall to the ground and be extinguished at any time.

“”Patriarch, you…what’s wrong with you?”

Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out.

On the opposite corridor, Huo Youxue was looking at Chu Huang in shock. When she came to her senses, she ran over and held Chu Huang’s arm.

“”Chief, are you…are you injured? Why are you covered in blood? And why do you look so pale?”

Huo Youxue’s originally heroic face was now full of heartache, and her voice was even a little tearful.

“It’s okay, it’s just training, help me back to the room.” Chu Huang put a hand on Huo Youxue’s shoulder and said in a low voice

“Training?”

Huo Youxue was slightly stunned, but soon she showed distress and said:”Patriarch, even if you are training, you can’t be so careless about yourself. You have to combine work and rest and do it in moderation.”

“It’s okay. Do you have any aged medicinal herbs at home?” Chu Huang said in a weak voice.

“Yes, knowing that the family would need these herbs sooner or later, Feng Ye has been interested in purchasing them.

Ginseng, deer antler, astragalus, snow lotus, the family has them all, but most of the herbs like ginseng and snow lotus are only thirty to fifty years old.”

“Well… I’ll give you a recipe later. Go make me a medicinal meal and tell the kitchen to get ten kilograms of ferocious beast meat.”

“Yes, clan leader, don’t worry. I’ll send it to your room and do it right away!”

To be honest, in the previous training, whether it was himself, all the clan members, or the dead soldiers, what they ate the most was the blood and flesh of fierce beasts, because this was the most effective.

But now in the gravity room, after training for three hours with ten times gravity, Chu Huang was completely exhausted.

This was also the first time he was exhausted since he started training.

Ten times gravity!

From being unable to bear it at the beginning to being able to adapt slowly.

From swinging his fists like a snail climbing, to the speed getting faster and faster.

His mental strength, flesh, bones, internal organs… were all under great pressure.

It’s okay for a short time, but for a long time… Normal training, just the blood and flesh of fierce beasts cannot make up for these losses.

That is why he used points to buy a lot of prescriptions from the system.

These prescriptions include medicinal soups, medicinal meals, medicinal baths… a variety of them!

Using these to assist in training, and then eating a lot of blood and flesh of fierce beasts, this will not only make up for the losses, but also allow him to recover his physical strength faster.

However, in this way, their demand for medicinal materials will also increase greatly.

Especially those medicinal materials that have been aged, which are essential for their Chu family.

He was originally planning to buy these medicinal materials from the system mall, but he could find them. After that, he found that the price of medicinal materials in the system mall really made him speechless.

In the mall, medicinal materials under a hundred years old are not sold at all.

A hundred-year-old mountain ginseng actually requires 100 points, and the points required double for every additional hundred years. A two-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng requires 200 points… a three-hundred-year-old one requires 400 points… and a four-hundred-year-old one requires a terrifying 800 points.

This is just an ordinary old mountain ginseng. If it is a spiritual ginseng or blood ginseng with some spirituality, it will require more points.

So Chu Huang does not plan to buy it for the time being. Purchase these herbs directly from the system. It is only the millennium now, and there are still many wild ginsengs of sufficient age on the market.

Especially in the famous mountains and rivers in various places, as well as other deep mountains and forests, there may be ginsengs that are more than a hundred years old.

After all, this is not an ordinary world, but a world of pirates.

Some herbs of older ages are not rare.

It seems… it is time for the tribesmen to contribute.

After returning to the room, Chu Huang half-lay on the bed, handed a dozen prescriptions to Huo Youxue, and then said in a low voice:”Go, notify Chu Feng and Chu Yi to come together”

“Yes, Patriarch!”
