Chapter 15: The Vitality Girl Mu Shi'er (Middle)
Baixing Road is located on the east side of the old city, because there are many ginkgo trees planted on both sides of the road, and the road has gained such a good name.
It is now the late autumn time, and the ginkgo biloba leaves are golden yellow, swaying on the branches with the slightly cool autumn wind, floating down from the white trunk from time to time, and falling on Zhou Yao and Mu Shi'er's side.
"Hey, hey····· It's been a long time since I've come out to play. Mu Shi'er walked in front, easily picked up a falling ginkgo leaf with her fingers, turned to look at Zhou Yao who was following her steps, and shook it happily.
Zhou Yao smiled kindly-
A few minutes ago, Zhou Yao, at the kind invitation of Mu Shi'er, decided to go to the Chinese herbal medicine wholesale market with this girl.
"The merchants in that mall are dark, and they can only buy very ordinary medicinal herbs in the outermost places. And all of them are all kinds of charlatans, and my father has been deceived several times. Mu Shi'er said to Zhou Yao seriously at that time.
Zhou Yao has only been settled in Jiangcheng for two years after graduation, and he has never come to this place to buy medicines, and after thinking about it carefully, he feels that there is no harm in following this natural-looking girl.
"You haven't been out for a long time?" Zhou Yao asked in response with some curiosity.
"Yes!" Mu Shi'er raised the maple leaf in her hand and said happily: "Hehehe····· Well, I think about it, well, I haven't been out for almost two and a half years!"
Two and a half years?
Zhou Yao was a little shocked.
Even Zhou Yao's college roommate Shen Feibo, a super otaku, stayed in the dormitory and skipped all the required courses to play games, and he only stayed at home for less than three months.
Of course, there is an element of the counselor's withdrawal warning playing a role.
"So long?" Zhou Yao was quite surprised this time.
Could it be that the man in front of him is the most powerful man in the house world?
The strongest otaku in the heavens and all worlds?
Zhou Yao looked at the abnormally large backpack that Mu Shi'er was carrying behind at this moment, and wondered if there was a house inside.
"Hey, hey······" Mu Shi'er was a little embarrassed, and touched her hair that was tied into balls, "It's not like that... Hehe, my father asked me to retreat at home for more than a year and a half, and it turned out to be a bit of a small defeat······" Mu Shi'er said with some frustration, then took a deep breath as if she was cheering herself up, refreshed herself, and continued: "But what, but after a year of postponing cultivation, and rushing through the level again, it will be successful...... Well, yes, even then, I'm pretty good among my peers!"
Retreat?
It was my father who asked me to do it.
It can't be domestic violence, right?
Zhou Yao denied this idea at the first time - after all, such a naturally sunny character must not be cultivated in that kind of environment.
Definitely
- Zhou Yao understood again.
College Entrance Examination.
In order to get into a good university, the girl in front of her studied hard at home for a year and a half under the supervision of her father, and then failed the college entrance examination, and after repeating the college entrance examination for a year, she succeeded in the college entrance examination and went to her ideal university.
Well, the logic is self-consistent.
No problem.
Seeing that Mu Shi'er was only eighteen or nineteen, Zhou Yao was even more sure of his reasoning.
"Yes, this process is really hard, and that's how I walked through it back then····· Haha···· It's really amazing to have the courage to take on the challenge again. Zhou Yao smiled nostalgically and sincerely affirmed Mu Shi'er's efforts.
It's really not easy.
The perseverance of being able to choose to repeat the college entrance examination again is indeed commendable.
"Hey, hey······ I'm embarrassed to say that·····" Mu Shi'er said happily, "So it turns out that Zhou Yao is your senior······ Ah no, be polite, huh······ Can I call you Senior Zhou?"
Predecessor?
Is it a senior after finishing the college entrance examination before others?
Could it be that this is the customs and rules of Jiangcheng?
That's so polite, isn't it?
Never mind.
It is inconvenient for Zhou Yao to refuse, after all, this may be the family rule of this girl named Mu Shier, follow the customs of the locals, and Zhou Yao still understands this truth.
"Senior Zhou, Senior Zhou! I don't know if it's inconvenient to ask····· Hmmm... When did you get out of the country? And are you from the same generation as us?" Mu Shi'er seemed to have suddenly discovered some treasure, and questions popped up one after another.
What a strange question.
Is the natural girl in front of you talking about hidden words?
It's a bit of a secondary two.
Exit refers to the end of the college entrance examination, and the generation refers to age-Zhou Yao speculated.
"Me," Zhou Yao replied after thinking for a moment: "College Entrance Examination... Ah no, if you get out, it should have been six years ago, and you should be three or four years older than you in terms of age······"
"Ah!!It's amazing!It's really amazing!!It's even more talented than Senior Bai!!" Mu Shi'er said with great admiration, and suddenly realized: "No wonder I can't see the realm of Senior Zhou, may I ask Senior Zhou, which family or sect are you from?"
???
Zhou Yao was even more confused.
Is the normal age college entrance examination very powerful?
Although Jiangcheng has a developed economy, there are only a few students who work in business, and it stands to reason that most students should take the college entrance examination at the right age.
Don't understand.
Zhou Yao gave up thinking about this aspect and turned to the question that Mu Shi'er had just raised - what is the hidden language of the family and the sect.
I guess I graduated from the university.
Zhou Yao speculated.
Then reply to her as she says.
"I'm from Beidu, and the university is... Ah family or sect or something, you shouldn't be very clear, how to say it, it's a specialized college in a more popular frontier field. ”
Zhou Yao recalled his university - Beidu University of Electric Science, although it is well-known in the Internet field and has the reputation of two networks and one electricity in the industry, but in the eyes of outsiders, it may be relatively unfamiliar.
Even last year, some authoritative media branded their schools as China Electric University, which was recognized by many as a pheasant university. If you report the name of the school directly, it will be confusing.
In order to make Mu Shi'er easier to understand, Zhou Yao changed to a more general statement.
"The northern capital's... Or the cutting-edge ······" Mu Shi'er fell into thinking again, and then suddenly realized again, a more admiring expression appeared on her face, and she unconsciously took a step back: "Could it be ····· Senior Zhou is a disciple of Senior Ye?"
Mu Shi'er recalled what her father had told herself, among the younger generation of cultivators, only peerless geniuses with a talent of one in one hundred million would be favored by the cultivator Supreme Ye seniors who lived in seclusion in the Northern Capital and accepted as disciples. Even if he is a leader among his peers like himself or Bai Senior, he may not be able to enter the eyes of Ye Supreme.
How did she know!!
At this moment, the shock in Zhou Yao's heart was no less than that of Mu Shi'er.
Zhou Yao graduated from Ye Pei College of Beidu University of Electric Science, and in the selection examination of the freshman year, Zhou Yao was fortunate to pass the examination in the school to enter this higher-level college.
Senior Ye, of course, refers to Mr. Ye Peida.
This is the principal of the older generation of Zhou Yao School, and he is also an academician-level scientist of that era.
After the death of the old gentleman, in order to commemorate Academician Ye Pei, Nortel specially set up the department of Ye Pei to recruit selected students - from this point of view, it is not unreasonable to say that Zhou Yao is a disciple of Academician Ye Pei.
Zhou Yao was a little emotional.
It turns out that Mu Shi'er doesn't look at her age, but she still knows and respects the older generation of scientists in these countries, which is really worthy of admiration.
Zhou Yao nodded, and said with great certainty: "I didn't expect this to be seen by you!
。。。
。。。。。。
Why don't you talk anymore.
Mu Shi'er looked at Zhou Yao a little cutely.
"Hey, hey·····"
was complimented.
I was praised by the top genius of my generation.
The aspect that has been praised is still the observation ability that is usually complained about the most.
"Hey, hey·····" Mu Shi'er showed her signature cute natural smile.
"Hey, hey······· Hey, hey······" Mu Shi'er smiled more and more happily, and finally couldn't help but put her arms in a victorious posture and said, "yes!! was praised for !! great success in the battle!"
Do you have to be so happy to be praised?
Zhou Yao looked at Mu Shi'er, who was so excited in front of him, that he smiled helplessly.
······
······
Zhou Yao and Mu Shi'er chatted while walking in the direction of the Chinese herbal medicine street.
Walking to the end of Baixing Road, when Zhou Yao and Mu Shi'er turned past the last and largest ginkgo tree, the archway at the intersection of Chinese herbal medicine came into view.
From a distance, the pedestrian flow on the street, the sound of vendors and the noise of the crowd come from time to time, which is particularly lively.
Mu Shi'er relieved herself from the joy just now, and said confidently: "Senior Zhou, please follow me on the road ahead..." You can definitely find it with your strength, but it's going to be a hassle!"
What the.
Isn't the Chinese herbal medicine street just in front?
Before Zhou Yao could react, Mu Shi'er stepped up her pace and motioned him to follow her pace.
After entering the street of Chinese herbal medicines, Mu Shi'er did not slow down, Zhou Yao followed her around the stalls on the side of the road selling all kinds of strange medicines, passed through those large pharmacies that looked quite serious, and turned into a small intersection full of wholesale medicinal materials.
Where to go.
Zhou Yao looked at the lively streets, and then looked at Mu Shi'er's confident back.
Never mind.
After all, I'm not a local, so I shouldn't have a problem following the veterans.
Zhou Yao followed Mu Shi'er into the small intersection, turned seven or eight corners and turned into a dead end, and then passed through a deserted courtyard in the dead end, pushed open a gate that had rusted, and a path came into view.
Where is this?
Zhou Yao was a little dumbfounded - if he didn't have the memory of walking just now, he would dare to believe that this is a suburb.
Zhou Yao slowed down a little and followed Mu Shi'er in.
At the end of the road, a dilapidated shop appeared in front of them.
"Hey, hey, we're here!" Mu Shi'er turned to look at Zhou Yao, raised her hands, and said happily.
That's it?
Zhou Yao's face was embarrassed.
Let's not talk about this shop, it looks like a black shop selling counterfeit and shoddy Chinese medicine.
Not to mention the strange sign of this shop -
Jindanli Chinese Medicine Co., Ltd. Baixing Road Branch.
Not to mention this geographical location that cannot be found at all.
Let's just say the most basic premise of this purchase -
This ** didn't open the door at all!
Zhou Yao looked at the storefront sealed by the iron door, and there was a big word on the rusty iron sheet.
Next to the word is a chewed gum.
。。。
。。。。。。
This is obviously a black shop that was rectified and seized two years ago!
"Senior Zhou, this is the place I told you that specializes in selling pill medicinal materials. Mu Shier added.
Pills and herbs?
。。。
。。。。。。
How did she know that she was going to buy the raw materials for the cultivation pill?
Zhou Yao was a little messy.
"Hmm······ Senior Zhou, that ····· A little embarrassed," Mu Shi'er smiled a little ashamedly, "I just rushed through the level and entered the Jindan realm, and I have only reached the first order······ Laws or something... To be honest, it's not very good······ Just be a little reluctant, come with me. ”
???
。。。
。。。。。。
!!!
The naturally harmless girl in front of her was also a cultivator.
Zhou Yao finally had a clear understanding of the situation in front of him.
。。。
No way.
Are there so many cultivators?
The natural girls you meet on the street casually are all members of the Xiuzhen Road.
It's still a Jindan realm, and it looks like a genius.
But with this premise, a lot of things just now make sense.
The strange conversations just now—what retreats, what sects and families—suddenly became traceable.
It doesn't seem to be a secondary disease, let alone a hidden word.
Mu Shi'er is indeed asking the most superficial meaning.
The key is that Zhou Yao still answered her in style.
。。。
。。。。。。
Finished.
Zhou Yao recalled the conversation just now, combined with Mu Shi'er's unusual admiration for herself.
It seems that some kind of misunderstanding has been triggered······
Do you want to explain.
Zhou Yao looked at Mu Shi'er's figure - Mu Shi'er took out two stacks of law talismans from her backpack, happily pasted them on the rusty iron door, and after pasting the law talismans the size of three people, Mu Shi'er put the few remaining law talismans back in her bag, turned to Zhou Yao and said happily: "Senior Zhou, there should be no problem, let's go!"
Where to.
Zhou Yao looked at this natural girl who didn't know anything was wrong, and felt that the problem was getting more and more tricky.
Never mind.
Let's bite the bullet.
It's all come to this point.
What can I do?
Zhou Yao suddenly felt that he had been driven like this all the time recently.
"Uh... Well, let's go. Zhou Yao barely squeezed out a smile and said.
"Well," Mu Shi'er nodded affirmatively, turned around, and a layer of red-gold true qi luster appeared on her body, she stretched out her right hand, made a pistol gesture, and held her right hand with her left hand, and the true qi gathered on the tip of the index finger of her right hand, becoming brighter and brighter-
"The peach blossom originates, and the immortals show the way!"
With Mu Shi'er's soft shout, the brilliant red gold true qi shot quickly towards the position of the law talisman, and then the symbols on the law talisman began to flash black light, as if they were alive, rapidly expanding from small dots to each other, fusing with each other, and finally turning into a crooked but just enough empty space for a person.
What is this?
Zhou Yao was stunned.
"Senior Zhou... Hey, hey······ I don't really have a good grasp of the wayfinding right now······ But don't look a little ugly, the destination must be accurate!" After speaking, Mu Shi'er jumped into the void and disappeared under Zhou Yao's nose.
What about people.
I see.
This should be another immortal technique that violates the laws of physics from the Great Immortal.
Then jump.
Zhou Yao sighed helplessly, closed his eyes, jumped into the hollow-
Smack.
Grounded.
Didn't you even have some kind of bizarre shuttle process?
How is it different from what I think?
Zhou Yao opened his eyes, and a room similar to the lobby of a pharmacy came into Zhou Yao's vision.
The lights were dim, and only a few candles flickered and flickered.
The house also has a slightly bitter but sweet smell characteristic of Chinese herbs.
Mu Shi'er stood next to her, looking around with some curiosity-
"Ah····· What a change·····" Mu Shi'er sighed thoughtfully.
"Hehe········"
The voice rang out at the mahogany counter in front of me for some time.
It's a young man's accent –
Lazy, embellished with a bit of cynicism -
"Brothers, what do you want to do? ”
It's still the tone of Zhou Yao's hometown of Beidu.
