Chapter 16: Is It Too Late to Say It?
Half an hour later.
Shu Jinghao, who was sitting on the edge of the flower bed, sighed a little boredly.
'It's so slow, why haven't you come yet?' ’
She doesn't like to wait, waiting is an ordeal for her, but sometimes waiting is inevitable, so she can only be patient and let herself think of something else to pass the time.
Time passes little by little.
Shu Jinghao finally couldn't wait, took out her mobile phone and was about to broadcast the number, when she suddenly felt a black shadow enveloping her.
She looked up and saw that the man was looking at her condescendingly, and there was a faint impatience on his face, but despite this, she didn't see the dislike in his eyes, and she was a little relieved in her heart, stood up, and attacked him.
"Hey, you're too slow! Isn't it ungentlemanly to let a girl wait for you for so long! ”
Yu Shulin also guessed that she couldn't say anything good, but he was not surprised, but he raised his eyebrows lightly, suppressed the abnormal joy in his heart, and replied in a pretended impatient tone.
"I said I'm busy, I don't have time, and I have a lot of work to do."
"You're still coming out so busy."
Shu Jing replied heartlessly, but laughed angrily at Yu Shulin.
Who let him out?! And to put it so lightly!
However, he really couldn't care about everything she said, because he was too calculating and sooner or later she would be angry with her.
"Where do you want to go?"
And Shu Jing is good, seeing that he is not angry, but feels a little boring, and pouts lightly.
"I just don't know, that's why I asked you to come out and be my guide."
"A local, you still need me to be your guide?"
"What's the matter, didn't I have a chance to go out alone before?"
Shu Jing glared at him, she didn't think he was really confused.
Sure enough, Shu Jinghao really thought it was right.
The corners of Yu Shulin's lips hooked in the next second, with a bit of ridicule, teasing her.
"Oh, what a good boy who listens to his mother."
I don't care about you.
Shu Jing scolded him in her heart, but there was a hint of impatience on her face.
"There's so much nonsense, hurry up, take me to play, time is money, understand?"
"Of course I do, I thought you didn't."
Yu Shulin chuckled lightly, and teased again, but in exchange for more white eyes, he was very funny in his heart, but he didn't tease her anymore, and after thinking for a while, he took her into the car he drove.
Shu Jinghao was arranged by him in the passenger seat, he didn't let other women sit in this seat, as for why he let her sit today, he didn't know, but he didn't reject it in his heart, so he didn't think too much.
Shu Jing looked at the regressing scenery outside the car window, and turned her head to ask him again.
"Where the hell are you going?"
"You'll know when you get there."
Yu Shulin deliberately sold her a pass, wanting to see how anxious she looked, but unfortunately he was disappointed again.
Shu Jinghao didn't have the slightest curiosity, and when he said this, he only said 'oh', then turned his head back, continued to look at the scenery outside the car window, and asked him from time to time what the shops he had never seen were doing outside.
"Hey, is that a pharmacy?"
Could it be that immortal cultivators still get sick?
"Pharmacy?"
Yu Shulin was very unfamiliar with the word 'pharmacy' in her mouth, but he glanced over there along her line of sight, immediately pulled the corners of his mouth, and said helplessly.
"That's a spirit plant shop specially provided for alchemists, and alchemists can make money by buying spirit plant alchemy pills in the spirit plant shop, and then selling the pills to the pill association."
"Pill Association?"
"Yes, it is the only place in the immortal cultivation world that is authorized to certify and sell pills. There, there are the most authoritative appraisers, which prevent some unscrupulous businessmen from trying to sell counterfeit drugs to deceive consumers and disrupt the market. ”
I see, it seems that the social order here has been established to the same extent as the world I used to live in. ’
Shu Jinghao secretly praised it, and then thought of the meaning of his sentence just now, so he asked him strangely.
"Spirit Plants can only be purchased through the Spirit Plant Shop? Can't you go outside and pick it? ”
However, her words immediately attracted a series of contempt from Yu Shulin.
"There are too many people cultivating immortals now, if everyone goes outside to pick, there is no order, and the greed of the human heart will destroy the ecological balance of the entire earth. You must know that the aura of the present day is more than ten times less than in ancient times. Therefore, it is even more difficult to cultivate immortals now than before. Even the development of the spiritual vein is also monitored by the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and the Immortal Cultivation Realm controls the development. No one is allowed to mine without permission, and if they are discovered, they will be subject to very severe trials. The maximum penalty will be to remove all the cultivation of the offender, and make him a mortal who will live, grow old, sickness and die for the rest of his life. ”
'Wow, that's a cruel punishment, a bit like life in my world. Immortal cultivators have become mortals, and in such a society, it is really difficult to move an inch. ’
Shu Jing smacked her tongue in her heart, but she was not dissatisfied with this punishment, after all, there are no rules.
"By the way, what exactly is the representative of the Immortal Cultivation Realm? Are there any sects or anything now? ”
"Yes, but only the last large sect remains, and the other sects are either disbanded or absorbed by the large sects. This sect is the root of the Huaxia Kingdom, they are the law enforcers, and they are also the guardians of the country. Qi Haocheng is not also in that sect. ”
"What?"
Shu Jinghao was shocked, and her fists couldn't help but tighten.
'That scumbag is still an official in the immortal cultivation world? ’
Seeing her so surprised, Yu Shulin immediately frowned.
"Didn't you see the jade slip I gave you?"
"I haven't had time yet, I just finished the college entrance examination yesterday, and I want to relax. Besides, Yu Jian won't run away there, so I want to see it in two days. ”
Shu Jinghao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and after finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at him again and said worriedly.
"When you investigate, he won't find out that you're investigating him, right?"
"You're only asking about this now, it's too late."
Yu Shulin sneered, stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the car rushed out as if it was flying.
Shu Jinghao, who didn't expect him to suddenly accelerate, was also startled by him, and almost flashed his tongue, and didn't scold angrily until he got used to it.
"What a nerve!"
"Rest assured, within a safe speed."
Yu Shulin saw that she looked annoyed and angry, but felt that she was in a good mood, laughed a few times, and comforted her very well.
"As for whether the investigation of Qi Haocheng will be discovered, you can rest assured. The current Huaxia Sect is composed of eighteen families, which contain and monitor each other. As for the sect master, it will be elected by the entire Huaxia sect, and it will be possible to pass a variety of assessments, and the person with the highest number of votes can be elected. And because of the avoidance of one person being the dominant one, and returning to the ancient autocratic society, the selection of the suzerain is once every fifty years. Well, there are still thirty years left before the next sect master selection. And this time there is Qi Haocheng among the candidates. He is not a member of the Eighteen Great Families, but he needs the support of the people of the family, and now there are about three families at his disposal. ”
When Shu Jinghao heard this, she also calmed down, and after chewing his words carefully, as a smart person, she could naturally understand the meaning of his words.
"You're also one of the eighteen families? And your clan is rooting for his opponents? And your identity may be the young master of the family? ”
