191 Luck and misfortune
Bai Yu's doubts were not only in his heart, but also in the hearts of those who had endured all the way with Shen Muyi just now. So when Shen Muzhi explained, they all listened carefully with their ears open. After hearing him say that he had practiced martial arts since he was a child to have such stamina, some people believed it, but some people didn't believe it, and I always felt that he secretly used some means to behave like this.
Of course, even if there are these thoughts, no one will say them at this time.
Although Shen Muzhi was also a little tired, for him, it was far from the limit, so he didn't meditate cross-legged on the spot to adjust his breath like everyone else, but stood in the corner on his own, looking at this camp with a little curiosity.
The camp is built on a hillside.
More than a dozen simple wooden buildings are scattered in this mountain forest, and a stream meanders through it, and the water flow in the stream is not small, and the sound of gurgling water makes this camp with a somewhat dull atmosphere a little more secluded.
At this time, there were already quite a few people in the camp. In addition to the disciples of the various peaks who arrived before them, there were also some young figures uniformly dressed in gray hexagrams, and several old men in black robes.
Soon, an old man walked towards them with two young men dressed in gray hexagrams.
Shen Muzhi didn't remember that these people came with them, and just when Xuan Cheng came to look for him, he asked, "Who are these people?"
Xuan Cheng replied: "It should be the steward and disciple of the outer gate." This camp is usually unoccupied, so people from the outer gate were arranged in advance to come and clean it. ”
As he spoke, the old man with the two teenagers had already found Bai Yu who was standing not far in front of them, the old man didn't know what to say to Bai Yu, only to see Bai Yu suddenly turn around, his eyes searched slightly, and then fell on Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng, and then raised his hand and beckoned to them.
Seeing this, Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng walked towards them.
"Steward Xi, this is Elder Xuancheng who is in charge of Qingliang Peak this time. Bai Yu waited until Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng came over, and then introduced Xuan Cheng to Xi Guan in advance.
When Steward Xi heard this, he immediately bowed down and saluted Xuan Cheng, and complimented him with a smile: "I have heard of Elder Xuan Cheng's name for a long time, but I didn't expect Elder Xuan Cheng to be so young, and he is really a young talent, which is admirable." ”
Xuan Cheng returned the salute and replied with a smile: "Steward Xi has an overreputation." ”
Bai Yu turned around and introduced Shen Muzhi to him: "Steward Xi, this is our Zhao Feng Lord's newly accepted disciple, Shen Muzhi." ”
When Steward Xi heard this, he looked at Shen Muzhi's eyes, which were even hotter than when he saw Xuan Cheng just now. This inexplicable eager look made Shen Muzhi slightly uncomfortable.
He squeezed out a smile, arched his hand towards Steward Xi, and said, "Muzhi has seen Steward Xi. ”
Steward Xi seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him, while hurriedly saying, "How dare the old slave accept the courtesy of the son." Childe, get up quickly, don't break the old slave!"
This old slave, and his frightened posture when he saw Shen Muzhi's salute, made Shen Muzhi uncomfortable, and his heart had more doubts.
Bai Yu saw Shen Muzhi's doubts, and explained with a smile on the side: "Steward Xi followed the peak master in his early years. ”
Shen Muzhi glanced at Bai Yu, and still had some doubts in his heart, but there was no need to delve into this matter, thinking about it, he smiled at Steward Xi and said, "Steward Xi doesn't need to be like this. ”
After greeting and politely saying a few more words, Steward Xi pulled the two teenagers who followed behind him and introduced them to Shen Muzhi and the others. One is called Xi Da and the other is Ge Xiaobing, both of whom are his disciples.
The age of the two teenagers named Ge Xiaobing looks a little older than the other one, probably less than ten years old, and his face is a little dark, and he is still a little immature. In a pair of slender eyes, the light is bright and clever. When Steward Xi introduced him, his eyes were looking at Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng curiously, without the slightest hint of timidity. After the introduction of the seat steward, there was no need for the seat steward to remind, so he immediately gave the three of them a generous salute.
And that seat is big, which is diametrically opposed to Ge Xiaobing.
When the steward introduced him, although he did not need to be reminded by the steward, he just bowed and saluted, and after the salute, he straightened up and continued to stand there, motionless and without saying a word, like a stake.
Steward Xi was a little embarrassed by Xi Da's performance, smiled at the three of them, and explained: "This kid doesn't like to talk since he was a child. ”
Bai Yu smiled, said that it was okay, and then asked Steward Xi: "I heard that Xi Da is one of the three places in the outer gate this time?"
Xi Da stood there, his head bowed, as if he hadn't heard.
When Shen Muzhi and Xuan Cheng on the side heard this, they both glanced at Xi Da in a little surprise.
Shen Muzhi didn't know that there were also outer disciples who would participate in this trip to the East Island.
Xuan Cheng reacted purely subconsciously, and after a glance, he withdrew his gaze.
When Steward Xi heard Bai Yu talk about this, his face suddenly became a little more proud, but in the face of Bai Yu, his posture was still relatively humble, and he replied with a smile: "This is also the blessing of Lord Tuofeng, otherwise how could Xi Da have such luck." ”
Bai Yu smiled and said, "This is an opportunity that Xi Da earned by himself, and the peak master is just the beauty of an adult." ”
Hearing this, Steward Xi was in a good mood, and after smiling, he was about to speak, when Yu Hai took the group of people who were left behind, and finally arrived at the camp.
Although these people were all left behind before, but then they followed Yu Hai, while pranayama, while hurrying, and now when they come here, although they are also very tired, they are in a better state than those disciples who have come here in one breath.
Yu Xin instructed these disciples to meditate and rest on the spot first, and then went to inspect the situation of Lin Changying and Zhao He, and only after seeing that they were okay did he come to them again.
Steward Xi had already seen Yu Xin, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed: "I've seen Elder Yu." ”
"Steward Xi is polite!" Yu Xin returned the salute. After saying that, his eyes fell on Shen Muzhi. Seeing him as if he was nothing, I couldn't help but have a little surprise in my eyes.
"Muzhi, how do you feel?" Yu Xin seemed to be a little incredulous, and asked.
Shen Muzhi replied: "Elder Xie Yu cares, the disciple is fine." ”
"It's okay. Yu Xin nodded, but the slight inquisition in his eyes did not stop there, and after looking at it a few times, he retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at Bai Yu, and said, "Take them to rest first." ”
Bai Yu nodded.
Steward Xi probably had something to say to Yu Xin, and when he heard this, he ordered Xi Da and Ge Xiaobing to take them to the wooden buildings where Qingliang Peak and Zhengyang Peak lived, respectively.
I don't know if it's deliberately arranged, or it's a coincidence, the wooden building where Qingliangfeng lives is adjacent to the wooden building where Zhengyang Peak lives, and the distance is very close, and the wooden building where other peaks live is farther away.
The wooden building has three floors.
There are only two rooms on the top floor, which are reserved for the leader and elder.
There are five rooms on each of the first and second floors. Considering that there were two girls in their group of five, Bai Yu proposed to leave the second floor for Lin Changying and Huang Zhen to live, and the three of them lived on the first floor.
Shen Muzhi and Zhao Hezi have no opinion.
So, after choosing a room, they went back to their rooms to rest.
Not long after he entered the house, Xuan Cheng came to look for him after settling down with the disciples of their Qingliang Peak.
As soon as Xuan Cheng entered the door, he threw him something.
Shen Muzhi took it and saw that it was a jade bottle.
"What is this?" asked Shen Muyi as he opened the jade bottle. As soon as I opened it, a sweet smell wafted out.
It's very rich.
"This is blood jade liquid. Xuan Cheng was beside him and said casually.
Shen Muzhi heard the name Blood Jade Liquid, and vaguely felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember when he had heard it. After he smelled the smell, he resealed the jade bottle.
At this time, Xuan Cheng said again: "This thing has a relatively good effect on internal injuries. This bottle is not much, you can save some money. If it's not a particularly serious injury, just take one drop at a time and you'll be fine!"
Hearing this, Shen Muyi's hand holding the blood jade liquid bottle couldn't help but feel a little heavier, he looked up at Xuan Cheng with some reluctance, and asked, "Is this thing particularly valuable?"
Xuan Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not particularly valuable......
Shen Muzhi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this......
"Now in this world, it's just this bottle in your hand......"
The faint voice made Shen Muzhi's hand tremble suddenly, and the jade bottle in his hand shook and almost fell down. After quickly holding it steady, he carefully put it on the table, and was about to speak, when he raised his eyes, he saw Xuan Cheng staring at him with some disgust: "Let you take it! Don't give me a crooked tuckle!"
Shen Muzhi was stunned suddenly, and when it came to his mouth, he didn't say it, and he didn't say it.
"I haven't been in this East Island Secret Realm, so I don't know what's going on inside. However, I heard He Xian say that although the strength of the demon beasts inside is not very strong, for you, you may lose your life if you encounter any one! So, you will honestly take this blood jade liquid and give me all the beards and tails to come out of it when the time comes!" Xuan Cheng finished speaking, and suddenly got up: "I still have something over there, I'll come back to you later!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked out.
After Shen Mu was stunned, he quickly got up and wanted to see him off, but as soon as he got up, he had already gone out.
Listening to the door slamming shut, and then looking at the jade bottle on the table, Shen Mu's heart was moved, and he couldn't help but feel a little sour in his eyes.
In his life for more than ten years, if you want to say that you are unlucky, there are indeed all kinds of misfortunes, but if you want to say lucky, you are also very lucky, for example, when you met Xuancheng and their brothers, and then met He Xian, and then became Zhao Zhengguang's disciple...... How fortunate it all is!
And if he hadn't come all the way, if it weren't for the love and support from these people, he wouldn't have gotten where he is now.
Thank you for having you!
