Inside the envelope was a stack of papers, ten of which were silver tickets, and one piece of stationery. The silver tickets are written in black and white, stamped with red sè seals, and each face value is 1,000 taels, which adds up to a full 10,000 taels. The letter paper is full of beautiful small characters, and every small word list is as beautiful as a painting.

Zhao Zheng glanced at the silver tickets, put them on the table casually, and then picked up the letter paper and looked at it carefully.

……

Since the previous rì and Jun acquaintance, Zhenzhen is very happy. Although it has not been for a long time, it can also be a friend, and the sound and smile of the gentleman are cherished in mind.

Zhenzhen fled the house privately and never told Yan Ci at home. On the way, if the birds return to the mountains and forests, the fish enter the rivers, and swim freely and freely. However, Yan Ci was worried about the family, and he was not allowed to eat and lie on the couch often in the morning and evening. Zhenzhen's daughter, there is such a fact that it is unfilial.

Now Yan Ci persuaded Zhenzhen to return to her hometown and end her studies, and not to run away again. In his year, if I succeed, I will re-enter the rivers and lakes, and if I have the fate to see you again, I will definitely find a winery to get drunk and get drunk to reminisce about old friends.

Zhenzhen was entrusted by the king and had broken 10,000 taels of silver tickets from Baimanfu in an envelope. Previously, it was discussed that these yellow and white things would be divided between the two, but the king's energy was innumerable, and how could Zhenzhen divide the soup.

In this way, there is no end to the words and no end to the love, may you succeed as soon as possible, in the name of reaching a thousand autumns, do not read.

……

The letter is concise and to the point, and the inscription and rì period are left in the lower corner.

Zhao Zheng read the letter quickly, and the feeling of emptiness in his heart became even more serious, as if a piece was missing.

It's a strange feeling, not heartache, but a deep loss.

This time Li Zhenzhen was taken away by her parents, and I am afraid that she will not have the opportunity to leave home for a long time, unless she can make a great breakthrough in martial arts.

If the two want to meet again, they can only wait until many years later, and at that time, what will become of each of them?

"But it's better to have a chance to meet than not to have a chance to meet." Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly and comforted himself in his heart, as long as he practiced hard and made some achievements, he would still have the opportunity to meet Li Zhenzhen in the future.

Zhao Zheng stared at the letter paper in his hand, and suddenly saw Li Zhenzhen's slender shadow when writing the letter, and his heart was inexplicably touched. He watched for a long time, until there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door, and the shadow in his mind disappeared with the sound.

He came back to his senses, put the letter back in the envelope, and stuffed the nine silver tickets on the table into it, leaving only one for temporary access. Although this 10,000 taels is a lot, if possible, he would rather exchange this 10,000 taels of silver tickets for Li Zhenzhen and let Li Zhenzhen stay with him for a while longer.

Li Zhenzhen's departure this time is not only the loss of a confidante for Zhao Zheng, but also the loss of a good helper. He originally planned to take Li Zhenzhen to do a few tasks with him, and with Li Zhenzhen's help, it was much easier, but now that Li Zhenzhen is gone, the pressure on him has suddenly increased, and the risks of those tasks have increased a lot.

But no matter how depressed it is, this matter is already doomed, and there is no possibility of maneuvering, so I can only choose to accept it.

Zhao Zheng put the envelope containing nine silver tickets into the system warehouse, leaving only one silver ticket and stuffing it into his sleeve. He cheered up, returned to his sister's room, and forced a smile: "I have read the letter, and it is all some goodbye words. ”

"Can you show me?" Shen Luoxia asked tentatively.

"This ...... It's a bit inconvenient. Zhao Zheng didn't want Shen Luoxia to see the matter of Yin Liang mentioned in the letter.

"You don't dare to show me, it proves that there must be something hidden in that letter." Shen Luoxia smiled evilly, raised her porcelain white index finger, and nodded Zhao Zheng a few times, "But the more this is the case, the happier I am." Li Zhenzhen, that girl is very good, if you can capture her heart, it will be a beautiful thing. ”

"The two of us get along well, but not to the point where we are happy." Zhao Zheng shook his head and said.

"I can see that Li Zhenzhen has a good impression of you." Shen Luoxia slowly restrained her smile and asked, "Little brother, tell me the truth, do you like Li Zhenzhen or not?" ”

"Why did my sister ask me this question all of a sudden?" Zhao Zheng asked rhetorically.

"Confused brother, if you really like Li Zhenzhen, then I will take you to Li Zhenzhen's parents to propose marriage."

"Propose?" Zhao Zhengwan smiled and said, "Even if the two of us look at each other, it is impossible to be together." Her family background is too good, even if I go to propose, her parents will not agree, this matter is too unrealistic. ”

"Say you're confused, you're really confused, a manly man, if you meet a woman you really like, no matter how good the other party's family background is, you should take the initiative to fight for it, if you don't even fight, he will inevitably regret it for life. I don't bother to take care of other people's affairs, but you are my brother, I have to take care of it. If you like Li Zhenzhen, even if I go bankrupt, I will buy you a batch of bride price to go to the Li family to propose. Although 80% of their families will not agree, we must at least fight for it. Shen Luoxia's tongue was like a lotus, and every word was loud.

Zhao Zheng listened to Shen Luoxia's solemn words, and his heart was greatly moved, if it was changed in modern times, even if it was his own sister, he might not be willing to pour out his family wealth for his younger brother, but Shen Luoxia could do it for him. Zhao Zheng knew that what Shen Luoxia said must not be a joke, because Shen Luoxia is a heroine among women, and her words have always carried a lot of weight.

"Sister, I'm glad you can say that, but Li Zhenzhen and I really haven't developed to that point, and between me and her, we just have some good feelings for each other." Zhao Zheng said frankly.

"Really? You must not lie to me about this. Shen Luoxia reminded.

"Sister, don't worry, I didn't lie to you." Zhao Zheng said firmly.

"If that's the case, then the matter will be forgotten for the time being. Marriage is not child's play, and it should not be taken lightly. ”

"I won't think about marriage for a while. I'm still young, so I should focus on my future, and it's better to start a family later. "Zhao Zheng is really a little uncomfortable with this world of getting married early, if it is changed in modern times, he is sitting in the ivory tower to study at this age, and it is still early to talk about marriage.

"That's right if you think so, I also think that a person should wait until he meets someone he likes before thinking about getting married, if he doesn't meet someone he really likes, he should keep waiting. In this world, everything can be improvised, but a lifelong partner can't make do. Shen Luoxia's eyes were confused, and she seemed to see her sweetheart who had been waiting for many years but had not appeared.

Zhao Zheng heard his sister talk about this aspect for the first time, he didn't expect his sister's views in this area to be quite avant-garde, and the secular ideas of this world are completely different, this world is the same as ancient China, they all pay attention to the words of their parents' orders and matchmakers, many people have never even met before they get married, let alone any love and love.

The two talked for a long time about this matter, and then Shen Luoxia asked about Zhao Zheng's whereabouts these days, and Zhao Zheng made up some lies to hide that he went to Qingfeng Forest and was injured.

Before leaving, Zhao Zheng took out a rouge box from his sleeve and gave it to Shen Luoxia as a gift, this thing was bought from Qibao County before he came back, it was filled with pink sè rouge, and the box itself was quite jīng beautiful, full of reliefs. For Zhao Zheng's small gift, Shen Luoxia had nothing to find fault with, and accepted it happily.

After that, Zhao Zheng stayed in the Hongchen Inn honestly, practicing, playing the flute, practicing calligraphy, and alchemy every day, and his life was also fulfilling, and there were many things to do. After further recuperation, the wounds on his body were completely healed, leaving only a few tooth marks and scars.

These tooth marks are quite ugly, if they fall on a woman's body, the woman will have to be sad about it, but when it falls on a man, this feeling is much worse.

Zhao Zheng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with a few scars, not to mention that there were some scar removal elixirs on the rivers and lakes, if he felt that the scars were too ugly in the future, he could just buy some and use them on his body, which was really not a problem worth worrying about.

In his system warehouse, a lot of medicinal herbs are stored, and in the flower garden, some fresh herbs are also planted. His flower beds can be set at will in terms of temperature and light, and the soil is also very fertile, which is really a good place to grow herbs. Herbs grow inside, so don't worry about it at all. He used the medicinal materials he brought with him to practice refining the pill, and began to refine another pill that was easier to refine, this pill is called the Awakening Pill, which can refresh the mind and drive away drowsiness after taking it, if you do anything at night, you only need to eat one pill to jīng God a hundred times, which is quite practical for martial artists.

As in the past, when refining the Fruit Belly Pill, Zhao Zheng failed when he was refining the Awakening Pill at first, and he refined a large number of scrapped pills.

Zhao Zheng accumulated a certain amount of experience through the process of refining two low-grade pills, and made up his mind to start refining the middle-grade pill Tiger Bone Pill. Once this elixir is successfully refined, it can greatly speed up his cultivation speed, and it can be taken for a long time, which is very beneficial, and it will be of great help to his future growth.

He made an excuse and rode to Qibao County, first went to the Chūn Medical Center, took two pills of his own Hui Chūn Pill, and then bought some medicinal materials from Lin Jiyuan to refine the Tiger Bone Pill. He now has a lot of money in his hands, and he is very generous in buying medicinal herbs, and he directly buys thirty copies.

In the process of buying medicine, Zhao Zheng noticed that Lin Zhong'er had peeked at him many times, and he pretended not to know about it, and he didn't dare to look at Lin Zhong'er, for fear that he would let Lin Zhong'er fall deeper and deeper and increase the troubles of the two.

The medicinal materials he bought at the Chūn Medical Center were only part of the refining of the Tiger Bone Pill, and the rest of the rest was purchased by going to other medical centers and pharmacies, spending a total of nearly 1,300 taels of silver.

This time, he didn't stay in Qibao County, and after buying the medicinal materials, he rode back to the Hongchen Inn directly and began to try to refine the coveted Tiger Bone Pill.

All he knew was a few medicinal materials needed to refine the Tiger Bone Pill, and he had no clue about the specific refining method, so he could only use some conventional alchemy methods to conduct experiments until the test was successful. He had a total of more than thirty medicinal materials for refining the Tiger Bone Pill, and if he could experiment with the correct refining method with these medicinal materials, then he would be satisfied.

"Try the most common fire refining method first, and then try other methods." Zhao Zheng was in the alchemy furnace copy, uncovered the lid of the gourd-shaped alchemy furnace, and threw a whitened tiger bone into it, causing a crisp sound.
