When he walked out again with the awe and weird smiles of everyone in the house, it was already dark

Thinking about the various changes in Zhu Xiaoyu's expression before leaving, Xu Zixin had many doubts, he didn't know what Zhu Xiaoyu's intentions were in trying to get close to Shen Li all these years, but he could see that Zhu Xiaoyu had no malicious intentions, and although Shen Li's attitude towards him seemed to be bored, it was difficult to really say it clearly

Maybe it's because the two of them are very similar?, so Shen Li, who looks debauched on the outside, but is cold and alienated in his bones, has always maintained some permissible tolerance towards Zhu Xiaoyu?

It's just a pity that he didn't ask some things that should be asked, Xu Zi'an thought regretfully in his heart, and stepped on the tail of the sunset to the east

The place close to the city wall has always been very clean, away from the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, it is a good place to live in the real middle of the noisy, this small courtyard is located in the east city, but close to the foot of the city wall of the east city, surrounded by lush trees, leisurely and comfortable, can live here are either rich or expensive

After asking for a bowl of sour and spicy hot and sour noodles in front of a stall that has been set up here all the year round, and drinking most of the bowl with red chili oil, Xu Zi'an finally saw a beautiful woman in the sweat of the chili oil

The woman's life is very charming, and the style in her eyebrows is like water and soft, not as straightforward and pungent as the mountain woman, I heard that she herself came from the southern smoke and rain, but lived here with her husband who was an official

Her husband seems to be quite busy with official business, only coming here a few days a month, and he rarely goes out when he comes home to avoid suspicion or for some other reason

Today is the second day that her husband has come to live here, and according to the old man who bought hot and sour noodles, the man will stay here for five or six days, if nothing else, just before the convoy leaves Beijing

Looking up at the tall city wall on which the courtyard rested, there was still no light on the city wall, and the idle beacon tower looked very dim

Seeing this, the young man's heart was much more stable, and he turned around calmly and firmly under the reflection of the sunset with the size of the package, and hummed a minor tune of only a few words as he walked

The minor tune is melodious, the boy is innocent, and the clean voice spreads far and wide in the sunset

The spring breeze is proud of being a teenager, how can you feel at ease?

...............

It was daytime, and there were many pedestrians on the official road, but when I returned, it was late, and few other pedestrians passed by except for the hurried returnees

There were fewer pedestrians, and thinking that Shen Li must be waiting for him to go back to cook now, Xu Zi'an walked all the way very fast, but the distance from Bocheng to Yuzhen was indeed not close, Xu Zi'an walked all the way, or when the moonlight was getting thicker, he saw the simple pavilion in the wind

The gazebo is outside the town, and seeing the gazebo means that it is not far from the town

Crossing the shallow stream, he slowed down a little, because he was afraid that he would be forcibly kept by the aunts and aunts who were chatting on the street, Xu Zi'an had no choice but to spare the path and climb over the wall and return to his courtyard

An excellent hunter who can calmly deal with the fierce beasts in the mountains, but at this time he is forced to climb over the wall and enter his own home, it seems that the most powerful people in this world will always be these chattering aunts who may be hidden in any street and alley

As soon as his toes touched the ground, and before he could stop, the boy smelled a sour smell

Vinegar has a sour taste, but people who eat vinegar are also sour

"Okay, boy, it's really beautiful now, not only don't you cook, but you dare to see Lao Tzu's woman"

Turning his head and glancing at Shen Li, who was alone* under the peach blossoms, Xu Zi'an put the package in his hand in the room, thinking to himself, what kind of madness are you doing?

"Am I crazy?" As if he could hear what Xu Zi'an was thinking, Shen Liyao nodded at the young man and said loudly again

"You kid looked at Lao Tzu's woman, and came to ask Lao Tzu what is crazy, in vain I am so good to you, do you still have a little conscience?"

The boy was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly remembered that in the early morning commotion, he seemed to have glanced at a plum blossom in the crowd, and that plum blossom was pinned to the hair of a woman, who seemed to be a young widow

...............

In addition to going to the dilapidated gambling house in the neighboring town, there is also a simple brothel hidden in the corner of the market, Shen Li's favorite place is only a bean shop on the street in the town, although most of the time Shen Li looks at the beautiful widow who is busy in front of the stall with a kind of squinting eyes, but this is enough to explain many questions that are very scary

Shen Li, who seems to be taller than the world's masters, often stares at a young widow, and it just so happens that the widow is really selling tofu, no matter how you look at it, this kind of thing is very similar to the old-fashioned plots in those sour stories

But the problem is that this kind of story will never happen to Shen Li, and God knows how much of Shen Li's shameless gaze is just to see the spectacular scenery under the woman's beautiful face

Ignoring the sour eyes behind him, Xu Zi'an continued to walk towards the stove, the leftover porridge and kimchi and the half-fried egg when he left in the early morning were all left intact, thinking that Shen Li had just come back

Shaking his head, he picked up a sauerkraut from the plate and put it in his mouth, and found that although the sauerkraut had been dried in the bowl for a day, the sour taste was still very comfortable, and the young man couldn't help but sigh again that his cooking skills were still true

The young man's cooking skills are indeed very good, otherwise he would not be able to satisfy Shen Li's passionate and picky stomach

But after a while, the young man became depressed again, and it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, let alone her own empty kitchen?

A few days ago, because I was busy with the township test assessment, I came back in a hurry today, although there was rice grain at home, but there was nothing to cook rice, and there were some smoked bacon in the courtyard, but it was just Shen Li's favorite bacon, hesitated for a moment, and the young man was uncertain and tentative

"Otherwise, I'll cook noodles for you at night?"

Shen Li was still immersed in his own world, and refused to speak with resentment, only responding to the young man's whirring sound of the wind around the earthen wall

"Isn't it okay to add more chopped green onions, add more oil, and add you an egg?"

The whirring sound blew through the cracks in the threshold, turning into a bleak whooshing sound

After hesitating for a moment, the young man stomped his foot and said with some distress

"At most three eggs, I went to Bocheng today to buy a lot of things, the cost is too great, and it cost you a full seven taels just to buy that cotton shirt."

The sound of gloom entered the old courtyard, blowing the yellowed window paper and turning into a tumult

"Shen Li, I just looked at the plum blossoms on my aunt's hair, and then looked at other places, you are so sour, who is the sour?"

Aunt Pity is the young widow who has been harassed by Shen Li for many years, the subtext of this sentence is that Wu Laosi next door stares at others like you every day, and I don't see what is wrong with you, you have the ability to go to him, Tianguan takes me to find happiness, it is rare to really make you really happy?

"It's not like it's happy, but it's happy."

Shen Li stood up from the rocking chair as he spoke, and his fingertips pointed at the stove behind the young man, and said confidently

"Must Get Five"

After being stunned for a moment by Shen Li's straightness and strength, the young man bargained

"Four Lines Can't Go"

"At least three, no less"

"Okay, but we'll have to count the one and a half omelettes left in the morning."

"Forget one, how about half?"

Xu Zi'an frowned and thought for a long time, suddenly his eyes lit up, picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks and broke the half of the omelette into several pieces, and then seriously re-pieced the broken yellow and white into a circle, and pointed to another round omelette in the bowl with a smile

"Hey, look, one big, one small, two"

............

In order to save an egg, this kid was able to come up with such a creative idea, it seemed that such a stupid approach did make Shen Li sigh for a while, the broken mirror can't be reunited, and the broken egg that is put together can still be called an omelette?

Thinking of this, Shen Li turned around and waved his hand weakly, just signal that you are happy at will

The young man who got Shen Li's consent turned around happily, and soon there was the sound of oil and water boiling in the stove, as well as the crisp sound of eggshells hitting the edge of the bowl

If you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, Xu Zi'an has been in charge early, so he knew earlier than others that oil, salt, firewood and rice are not expensive, but really expensive

There is noodles in the green flowers, poached eggs in the dough, and a push of fried eggs that have been picked

Xu Zi'an had eaten a bowl of sour and spicy hot and sour noodles when he came back, so he only served some noodle soup, and there were also chopped green onions in the soup

Watching Shen Li put the last noodle between the chopsticks, the young man suddenly asked

"Shen Li, what exactly is cultivation?"

"It's just to eat better noodles"

The answer was ...... It's really thoughtless, by the way, how powerful are the cultivators of the Xuan Realm."

Put the last noodle in his mouth with a piece of capers, sucked it hard, and the longest noodle was sucked into his mouth all at once, and after chewing hard for a while, Shen Li picked up the smallest green onion from the bowl with the tip of his chopsticks, and slurred his speech

"Probably that's it."

While being amazed that Shen Li was able to stuff this extraordinarily long noodle into his mouth in one go, he looked at the small and pitiful green onion, and the young man raised his delicate eyebrows, wondering if such a small green onion was an exaggeration

"I can say it's so big because I can't find smaller green onions in this soup."

Shen Li chewed hard a few times and swallowed it hard, but he didn't want too many noodles in his throat, so he hurriedly took a few sips of noodle soup before he could relieve his breath and burp with satisfaction

Looking at the bottomless noodle soup in Shen Li's bowl, Xu Zi'an thought that you would finish drinking the noodle soup, so how would you continue to ask later?

Pushing the noodle soup in his bowl in front of Shen Li, the young man asked again

"Then can they fly with the object, just like those lectures in the gym, they can fly the sword, and they can pull out many particularly beautiful moves."

"Not only can they fly swords and pull flowers, but they can also burst out and kill people."

This question was asked very idiotically, and Shen Li also answered very politely

Xu Zi'an rubbed his eyebrows in embarrassment, thinking that this question was really not very serious, and asked directly

"If I say, I mean if, I'm going to assassinate a cultivator who has passed through the Xuan Realm............ How sure can you be?"

Shen Li, who was about to use the tip of the chopsticks to pick a few times in his bowl, stretched out his hand to find that the noodle soup in his bowl had already bottomed out, so the bamboo chopsticks naturally turned in the air and stretched into Xu Zi'an's bowl, and after picking for a long time, he finally picked out a green onion that was smaller than just now

"That's it?"

Xu Zi'an frowned and looked at the even more pitiful green onion in front of him, thinking to himself why he had nothing to do with such chopping

But even if he didn't chop the green onions so much, Xu Zi'an knew in his heart that this matter was indeed quite difficult, a young man who couldn't even get started with the true realm, actually wanted to assassinate a cultivator of the Xuan Realm who had already stepped into the threshold, no matter who heard this, he would feel that the young man was talking about a dream

"There is no doubt that the gap between realms is the most difficult gulf to cross"

After a pause, Shen Li continued

"You can't practice, the other party is already sparse, you can't even fly the knife, the other party can already cover the sword light and sword shadow within three feet, how to fight, how to kill?"

"Then how should I fight, how should I kill?" Xu Zi'an repeated Shen Li's words

Shen Li was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that is what the so-called pun meant?

"How to fight, how to kill? This question is a good question, you must know that in this world, there is never anything impossible, and there is never a shortage of real legends and myths, just like me, when I was only in the True Realm, I had already killed many cultivators in the Xuan Realm, and there were some pseudo-realm cultivators who were already worthy of stepping into the Knock Mansion Realm."

Shen Li said proudly and patiently waited for the reverence and admiration from someone, but after waiting for a while, seeing that the young man did not reply for a long time, he had to continue to salvage the green onions with great interest

Although the division and system of the realm of the desolate race and some otherworldly races are slightly different, generally speaking, the entire Tianyan Continent is almost the same

Knowing the truth and passing through the Xuan, knocking on the house after passing through the Xuan, these are the three most basic realms in the cultivation of the Great Dao, and they are also known as the lower three realms, followed by the more mysterious and profound middle three realms such as Zhicheng, Canghai, Qitian, etc., but the cultivators who have reached that realm are undoubtedly the people of the middle peak, and it is too far away for Xu Zi'an, who is still struggling at the foot of the mountain, and can not be mentioned for the time being

The realm of cultivation is divided into nine major realms, and each realm is divided into three small realms, namely the upper realm, the middle realm, and the situation

The deeper the perception of the breath of heaven and earth, the more refined the spells will be, and the more the number of true elements stored in the body, the greater the power of the exercises will be

The exercises of each realm are different, and the power is also different, so if you really go to what Shen Li said, he once killed Tongxuan with the Knowing the True Primal Realm, and he is also a person who has entered the Dao who is about to step on the threshold of the Knocking Mansion Realm, then his back then is really worth shocking, and it is not an exaggeration to be praised a few times

However, Xu Zi'an is not interested, not only because of his character, but also because of his experience, in the township examination, he has seen many cultivators who have already known the true realm, although most of them are only the first realm of knowing the truth, and the exercises they practice are also some ordinary techniques, but he still defeats the other party one by one

This is also considered adversity

It is undeniable that the set of sword techniques taught by Shen Li has a great effect in it, but his combat experience of often fighting with beasts in the mountains is also a big reason, and those combat experiences have given him a good physical foundation and a lot of valuable life and death experience

The most important thing is the green glow that appears on the tip of his knife from time to time, as well as the young man's state of mind that has always been calm like a shallow stream

Perhaps, this is a combat talent as important as the talent of cultivation
