Chapter 12: Don't Ask, It's the Secret
12
"The wine is not yours at all, but your master's, because he came to the door to ask for it."
"You can't blame me for this, if it weren't for Elder Cheng and you showing off everywhere, how would my master know that the wine had fallen into your hands."
Cheng Qingqing was speechless.
Just like Lin Shi said, the news did not leak from him, but because of Cheng Qingqing's own relationship.
But how could Cheng Qingqing admit it.
Couldn't help but shirk her responsibility.
"Then it's not my fault, it's all the fault of the old man who is clear and clear, he saw that I had the elixir and jade wine in my hand, so he wanted to ask for a cup to drink, and I just had a bottle of that thing, what if he drank it all in one mouthful, so I poured a glass for him, who would have thought that the stinky old man was not satisfied, and said that I was stingy everywhere in the door, and I was not even allowed to let him drink a sip."
"Elder Cheng, don't interrupt me, I'm telling you about the Qiong Jelly Jade Wine, I heard the master say, you didn't pay him back the wine."
"I've already drunk all the wine, and if I don't want it, it's a ...... Nor did it. ”
Cheng Qingqing crossed his hands on his hips, looking like a scoundrel playing hooligan on the street.
Of course, Lin Shi didn't believe what Cheng Qingqing said.
Qiong Jelly Jade Wine, that thing is something that can be met but not sought, especially for Cheng Qingqing, who is obsessed with alcohol, its value is even extraordinary.
Such a treasure, how could he be willing to drink it so quickly.
It seems that the jade wine is not coming back.
In fact, Lin Shi didn't plan to come back at first.
mentioned this, he just wanted to be anti-guest, so that Cheng Qingqing could help him do some favors, such as when he came to the Gulin Mountains this time, so that she could turn a blind eye or something.
"Elder Cheng, you are also a person with a head and a face, isn't it too bad to be so emotional?"
"I, I'm not playing tricks."
Not to mention that Cheng Qingqing really forgot.
As an elder of the Duxiu Sect, she is a person with a head and a face, no matter inside or outside the door.
If this thing gets out, how will she see people in the future?
It's just that Qiong Jelly Jade Wine can be met but not sought, and it was not easy to get such a bottle, so I changed it back......
Just thinking about her makes her feel heart-wrenching.
If she really wants to return it, she must die of distress.
"I've run out of wine." Cheng Qingqing felt a little inappropriate again, "Otherwise, when I return to the mountain gate this time, I will compensate you for something of equal value." ”
"The gift of giving out is the same as the water that is spilled, so forget about the wine." Lin Shi changed his words and returned to the original topic: "It's just that what Elder Cheng promised me has not been completed, I just need Elder Cheng to promise me, if there is something to ask for in the future, I hope not to be stingy in everything I can." ”
"Okay, I promise you."
Thinking that he didn't have to return the wine, Cheng Qingqing was so happy that he would refuse.
Without even a trace of hesitation, he agreed on the spot.
Although it is only a verbal promise, it is enough for Lin Shi, he believes that with Cheng Qingqing's character, he will never be treacherous.
"So ......"
Lin Shi looked up.
I saw a looming light curtain above.
The light curtain is semi-circular, like the mouth of a bowl, enveloping a certain area.
In the very center of this light curtain, there is a faint text, which is very strange and has some kind of magical power.
Looking closely, Lin Shi found that it was this text that was absorbing Cheng Qingqing's spiritual power.
It was precisely because this text had withdrawn the spiritual power from Cheng Qingqing's body that her cultivation had become so weak.
Looking at Cheng Qingqing now, it can be obvious that her cultivation is weaker.
According to the current situation, in another half an hour at most, Cheng Qingqing will completely lose his cultivation and become a mortal.
Of course, it's just that the cultivation is suppressed.
If she didn't have the formation, she only needed to meditate for a while, and her cultivation could gradually recover.
But even now, a group of people in the Dan stage are still not enough for Cheng Qingqing to kill.
The reason why they were still allowed to enter the formation was just to let Cheng Qingqing urge the spell and speed up the consumption of spiritual power.
It can be seen that the person who casts the formation cannot afford it.
In other words, it was also very difficult for them to use their formations, not to mention freeing up their hands to deal with Cheng Qingqing, I am afraid that it would be difficult to even move a position.
"The next thing is how to break the formation."
Seeing Lin Shi's calm look, Cheng Qingqing couldn't help but tease.
"What you kid said is easy, don't you think this formation is made of tofu?"
"Elder Cheng, you are really humorous, if this formation is really made of tofu, you won't be trapped here anymore."
"It's not your turn to say that."
Originally, Cheng Qingqing was going to resist Lin, but he didn't expect to be ridiculed in reverse.
This made her ashamed and annoyed, especially when she looked at Lin Shi's appearance of no tension and all under control, which made her even more angry.
A little old man's face.
Obviously, no matter how you look at it, the humorous person should be this kid.
"Elder Cheng, I don't know if you've found out?"
"What?"
Cheng Qingqing looked clueless, and knew at a glance that he hadn't found anything.
So Lin Shi said the conjecture just now.
After listening to it, Cheng Qingqing felt that it made sense, but at the same time, he felt that he couldn't hold his face, so he began to slap his swollen face and become fat.
"I've already seen this, I just want to test you because you're still very young."
"Then Elder Cheng, you must have a way to crack it, right?"
Lin Shi asked knowingly.
If Cheng Qingqing really had a way, she wouldn't be trapped in it now, doing nothing.
"This ......"
Not surprisingly, Cheng Qingqing was really speechless.
"I saw the clues, but I wasn't good at the way of the formation, so I couldn't do anything."
has always been mistaken by Lin Shi, Cheng Qingqing is also choked enough, she can't go on acting.
Before she was about to lose her performance, she threw the pot to Lin Shi.
"It's you kid, I remember your master said that you have some attainments in formation, but you know how to crack it."
"I don't dare to be accomplished, but I have read more books, and it just so happens that the books I have read have this formation."
Lin Shi returned to his usual modest state.
Cheng Qingqing has only a few relationships with him, but in her opinion, it is very rare.
Interested, asked, "Tell me about it." ”
"The Spirit Gathering Array must have known to Uncle Shi as well."
"Entry-level formation, who wouldn't know." Cheng Qingqing thought for a moment, and seemed to have caught a clue: "Listen to what you mean, what is the connection between this formation and the Spirit Gathering Array?" ”
"That's right." Lin Shi nodded and continued to explain: "According to the records in ancient books, this array is called the Soul Devouring Array, which was created by a monk in ancient times, and there is not much recorded in the book, only that it is a big devil, and this array is used to do evil, trying to harm living beings, in order to compete with it, the righteous monk has developed a formation that can restrain the Soul Devouring Array by deducing the Soul Devouring Array. ”
Hearing the critical place, Cheng Qingqing couldn't bear it, and interjected: "That formation, could it be the Spirit Gathering Array you just mentioned?"
"That's what the book says."
"How come I've never heard of such a big melon?"
“…… There are many things that are not mentioned in ancient books, and I think it should be related to some ancient secrets, which leads to many things that are not included in ancient books. ”
