Xu Xian welcomed Zhao Shenping to the living room, asked his subordinates to make a pot of Longjing tea, poured a cup for Zhao Shenping and asked, "Brother Zhao, where have you been in the past few years, why haven't you heard from you at all?"

Zhao Shenping took a sip of tea, his mouth was full of fragrance, and he smiled: "That day, I got your two vermilion fruits, and I went to the mountains to cultivate. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

When Xu Xian heard this, a look of curiosity rose on his face: "Brother Zhao, does Zhu Guo really have such a great effect on you?"

"Well, Zhu Guo is a thousand-year-old spiritual fruit that helps us to cultivate the truth in Xuanmen. ”

When Xu Xian heard this, a trace of annoyance suddenly appeared on his face: "Alas, it's a pity. ”

"What's the pity?"

Xu Xian sighed and said, "More than a year after you left, Bai Suzhen sent me two more vermilion fruits, but you were not there at that time, and Mrs. Qiao asked you to go." ”

"Bai Suzhen?"

Zhao Shenping didn't care that Zhu Guo was cut off by Que Qiao'er, but when he heard Xu Xian call Bai Suzhen, he was surprised, could he see that Bai Suzhen was dressed as a man?

Seeing his expression, Xu Xian thought that he didn't know who Bai Suzhen was, so he explained with a wry smile: "Alas, that Bai Suzhen is actually Bai Zhantang. She deceived me so hard!"

Zhao Shenping asked knowingly: "Lying to you?"

"Brother Zhao, do you remember that when I came back from worshipping my ancestors one year, I told you that I met two beautiful and fragrant women in West Lake?"

Zhao Shenping nodded.

"Those two women are Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, I thought I would never see them again, who would have thought that I couldn't help but see them, and I have done business with them many times, but they have been kept in the dark and unknown. ”

Zhao Shenping then asked, "Then when did you know the truth?"

"Hey, where do I have that ability? ”

Xu Xian sighed, his face was full of bitterness, and said slowly: "Half a year ago, I went to Zhenjiang to buy medicinal materials, and met a monk of Jinshan Temple, he said that I was contaminated with demonic energy, I was worried, and under questioning, the monk pointed to me and said that Bai Zhantang was a thousand-year-old female snake demon, and turned into a human form to find me to repay the kindness of my previous life, so I did everything possible to sell me medicinal materials, so that I could be rich and worry-free, but cause and effect." The senior monk also said that only if Bai Suzhen repaid my kindness, it would be possible to become an immortal, otherwise, it would be difficult to transcend. Brother Zhao, you are also a member of the Xuanmen, is this karma really as mysterious as the monk said?"

Zhao Shenping was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically: "Hanwen, do you believe what the monk said?"

"I have to believe it!"

Xu Xian sighed for a while, "From the beginning, Bai Suzhen always sold me high-quality ginseng, after a few times, I was a little suspicious that she had other plans for me, but I really couldn't think of it at the time, what was worth her about as a little doctor, and then I asked her to take Zhu Guo as a temptation, she never refused, but really took back Zhu Guo, let me exchange it back to Baohetang, you said that if she didn't want to repay her kindness, she wanted to be detached, why do these thankless things? It's just unreasonable!"

"Did she admit it?"

"Well, don't mention it, I haven't seen her since she gave me two more fruits more than a year ago. However, judging by the previous time, she should be coming soon. ”

Xu Xian didn't know what he thought, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his expression was quite expectant.

Zhao Shenping listened to what he said, and knew in his heart that the monk of Jinshan Temple was probably the bald donkey of the Fahai Sea, and he told Xu Xian the truth, naturally he was not at ease, and wanted to increase the difficulty of Bai Suzhen's repayment, and looking at Xu Xian's current appearance, the purpose of this old monk may have really been achieved.

Once people's greed is aroused, it will be infinitely magnified.

And Xu Xian has already become a greedy ordinary person!

Zhao Shenping didn't want anything to happen to Bai Suzhen's retribution, which was extremely detrimental to his task, so he immediately pondered for a moment and said tentatively: "Hanwen, if Bai Zhantang is really a monster disguised as a man, what will you do next time you see her again?"

When Xu Xian heard this, he glanced at Zhao Shenping with a strange expression, and would answer, but instead asked, "Brother Zhao, have you seen Bai Suzhen?"

"Of course not, I've only seen Bai Zhantang once, that is, the time I was with you in the pharmacy, and I didn't see that he was a monster. ”

Zhao Shenping's expression was as usual, calm and calm.

"Hanwen, why are you asking this?"

Xu Xian smiled slightly, and a trace of remembrance flashed in his eyes: "Brother Zhao, if you have seen Bai Suzhen, you know that you have been begging for a wife for many years but have not gotten, you should be like her! ”

"What's the matter?"

"Make a promise!"

When Zhao Shenping heard this, he was speechless.

This Xu Xian is really cowardly!

knew that Bai Suzhen was a snake demon, and wanted Bai Suzhen to make a promise.

When did this guy become so bold and unrestrained, or did he really have the confidence and fearlessness to be fearless?

But this idea is unacceptable.

Zhao Shenping opened his mouth to persuade him to dispel this thought: "Hanwen, if what the monk said is true, Bai Suzhen is a snake demon!? Do you want to marry a snake?"

Xu Xian waved his hand again and again, and said: "Brother Zhao, have you ever seen Bai Suzhen, when you see her, you won't think that she is a snake demon at all, you will only marvel at her beautiful and peerless appearance, besides, what if she is a snake demon, she will not harm me if she comes to me to repay her kindness?"

Zhao Shenping continued to persuade: "Hanwen, the love of demons is a taboo, if you are reluctant to be together, you will be punished by God." ”

"Damnation?"

Xu Xian frowned, and asked with some uncertainty: "It's not so serious, right? Is it Bai Suzhen who wants to repay me for her kindness, according to the passage in the book, isn't it normal for her to promise each other? How can it be punished by God?"

"If you don't cultivate the Tao, you don't know the majesty of heaven, if you marry Bai Suzhen, there will definitely be many disasters and difficulties in the future, and it will be difficult to have a good death. ”

"Is it really that serious?"

Zhao Shenping looked solemn and nodded vigorously: "It's really so serious." ”

Xu Xian still believed in Zhao Shenping's words, and when he heard this, his heart couldn't help but sink, and after a long silence, he said with a regretful face: "That... Then I won't marry her. ”

Zhao Shenping was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to praise him for a few words, when he continued: "But you can't get married, but if you kiss Fangze, it's nothing, right?" and Xiaoqing, who has been following Bai Suzhen, also counted, that is also a peerless beauty, when the time comes, let them serve me together for one night, and I will count them as repaying their kindness." ”

Zhao Shenping was stunned when he heard this, and his heart was as uncomfortable as eating a fly. He couldn't understand when Xu Xian became so greedy for beauty, and even had to give up his wealth in the future to enjoy it once.

Could it be that he hasn't been trained for three years, and Xu Xian himself has grown up?

But it's too crooked!

Zhao Shenping muttered to himself in his heart.

Xu Xianwu looked forward to himself for a moment, saw Zhao Shenping's gloomy expression, and suddenly said loudly: "Brother Zhao, I, Xu Xian, can have today's situation, thanks to your previous help, my Xu Xian is by no means an ungrateful person, we brothers, we should be blessed and shared, I don't want to be with Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, how about leaving Xiaoqing to you to enjoy? Xiaoqing is definitely not inferior to Bai Suzhen, they can be said to be equally divided, each has its own merits, and they are all first-class beauties. ”

When Zhao Shenping heard this, he was instantly speechless.

。。。

In the evening, Zhao Shenping found Que Qiaoer in a remote Baohetang pharmacy.

She is still calm and calm, and her demeanor is peaceful to look at the patient's illness.

Zhao Shenping shook his head helplessly, I don't know why Qiao'er wanted to open a pharmacy to treat diseases and save people from the beginning, when he was in Qiantang County, because he knew that Xu Xian would study medicine, he didn't object for convenience, but now she is still here to treat people, Zhao Shenping is a little puzzled.

You know, she's a monster!

And it's not a local youkai, it's a youkai who has crossed over and made waves!

Even if she heals and saves people, and can earn merit, it is useless.

Que Qiao'er saw Zhao Shenping the moment he came in, and after nodding slightly to him and saying hello, he continued to treat people, knowing that after treating the last patient, he smiled at Zhao Shenping, who was sitting impatiently waiting on the side, and said, "Brother Zhao, congratulations on your cultivation to the great progress." ”

Zhao Shenping didn't have any joy on his face, and sighed: "Hey, you can really sit still." After saying that, he reluctantly got up and went to the second floor.

Que Qiao'er shook her head slightly and didn't say anything, silently followed, and when she arrived at the attic, Zhao Shenping opened her mouth and asked, "Qiao'er, how is the causal line between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen?"

Speaking of the causal line, Que Qiao'er suddenly changed her expression, and her face was smug: "Speaking of their causal line, after my research in the past few years, I finally know why Bai Suzhen can reduce the cause by simply sending money to Xu Xian." ”

"Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian have clear cause and effect, and after more than a thousand years, Xu Xian inadvertently saved Bai Suzhen, it is the cause, she is now coming to repay the favor, it is the effect, under normal circumstances, cause and effect entanglement, Bai Suzhen will promise Xu Xian to the body, and then get married and have children, cause and effect are heavier, but we know the consequences that will occur in the future, so you trained Xu Xian at the beginning, although you don't know the reason, but also cut it off, so that their cause and effect become pure gratitude. ”

"The initiator of repaying the favor is Bai Suzhen, and the recipient is Xu Xian, when Xu Xian is grateful for what Bai Suzhen has done, the kindness will disappear, and the cause and effect will be self-sufficient, so as long as Bai Suzhen is sending Xu Xian a few elixirs, their cause and effect will be reduced to the extent that I can cut it off. ”

After Qiao'er finished speaking with a smile on her face, her voice changed, and she said with some regret: "However, Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen's cause and effect are special cases, and they can be reduced so smoothly only because we know cause and effect in advance, and for the normal cause and effect line, sometimes you don't even know the cause, and it is even more impossible to predict the effect, so if you want to reduce it, you can't start." ”

Zhao Shenping listened, smiled helplessly, and said: "Qiao'er, if you are disappointed this time, the cause and effect of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian may not be decreasing, but will increase." ”

"Why is that?"

Que Qiao'er looked puzzled.

"Because Xu Xian wants to go to Bai Suzhen!"
