Chapter 11 Undercurrents
“???”
When Shi Xiaofei heard this, he couldn't help but look at Xia Fandao in confusion.
"What are you talking about, sir?"
"If you don't understand, forget it, I don't expect you to understand anyway. ”
Xia Fan waved his hand with interest, as if he didn't want to continue, turned around and left.
"Sir, my business ......"
It's a pity that when Shi Xiaofei reacted and came back to his senses, he had already disappeared from the other party.
What a weirdo.
Shi Xiaofei didn't chase him out, not because he didn't want to, but because his physical condition didn't allow it, in fact, he was able to hold on to it until now.
There is no doubt that Shi Xiaofei was rescued.
From the initial temptation to the final separation.
From beginning to end, he couldn't figure out the mysterious master who saved him.
He struggled to take out the familiar hard object from his arms, which was a square jade pendant tied around his neck with a red rope, and the jade pendant contained the "Heaven Thief" that countless martial arts people dreamed of.
Because of this jade pendant, Jiangzhou once set off a bloody storm.
Because of this jade pendant, his most beloved adoptive father died.
Because of this jade pendant, he fled all the way from Jiangzhou, thousands of miles away, to here, and his life and fate took a huge turn.
He's tired, he's really tired.
If it weren't for the last wish of his adoptive father, Shi Xiaofei wouldn't want to own this strange treasure that caused countless killings.
He is a thief who lives by stealing, and since he was a child, his greatest wish is to be able to eat a full stomach, not a magical treasure that everyone in the rivers and lakes pursues.
Because he understands better than anyone else that being able to eat and live well every day is the greatest happiness in life.
In the final analysis, Shi Xiaofei is actually a person who doesn't have much pursuit, or his pursuit is different.
Shi Xiaofei, who was forced to perform a secret technique yesterday and couldn't move, thought that he was dead.
But he met the rescue of a master outside the world.
Yes.
In Shi Xiaofei's eyes, Xia Fan is undoubtedly a master of the world.
Being young doesn't mean anything, who knows if he's an old monster with a good face, and the weirdness between his words and deeds doesn't mean anything, isn't it true that all the masters in the world are like this?
The most important thing is that Shi Xiaofei can't see the slightest greed and scheming in him, he can only do what he wants.
Shi Xiaofei is a responsible person.
The other party is not only his savior, but he can ignore the fact that he has a huge treasure, so he truthfully told the truth about himself, so as not to innocently affect the other party in the future.
It's just that the other party's attitude was beyond his expectations, which couldn't help but make him even more uneasy.
......
"It's a little slippery, but it's still a good year by nature. ”
At this moment, Shi Xiaofei didn't know that Xia Fan had given him a good evaluation, let alone what this evaluation meant.
Xia Fan, who returned to the stone house, sat on a rattan chair and ate the roast chicken offered by the villagers with relish, although he never asked the villagers to worship him, but he couldn't stand the villagers who regarded themselves as immortals and built a small immortal temple on their own, and many tributes would be offered in the immortal temple on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
At first, Xia Fan thought they were wasting food, so he simply ate these tributes, but this move attracted the villagers to be more sincere in their offerings, and Xia Fan didn't bother to dissuade them, so he should add a few more meals to himself every month.
After meeting Shi Xiaofei, Xia Fan had a good impression of him.
After all, people are saved by themselves, and he always has to see what the other person's nature is.
If his nature is bad, Xia Fan will throw the other party out to fend for himself without saying a word, so as not to disturb the peace of the village.
Otherwise, why would he come to visit the injured every time, it was nothing more than to judge the nature of the other party and then make a corresponding choice.
This is responsible for their own actions, but also for the villagers here.
Result –
Shi Xiaofei successfully passed his assessment.
As for the other party's talk about the ancient strange book "Heaven Thief" that will cause trouble to himself, Xia Fan is definitely not interested in it, it must be fake, but his interest is mainly to see what this strange book says, not the temptation that this strange book can make people cultivate into immortals.
Because, if this strange book is really rumored, Shi Xiaofei thinks he can still live until now?
This cannot be said that the book is fake, it can only be said that the effect of the book is far less exaggerated than the rumors.
Otherwise, the whole world will be in ruins.
After eating the roast chicken and cleaning up his greasy hands, Xia Fan sat on the futon on the kang and closed his eyes and practiced.
This time, he didn't mess up his internal breath like before, and he quickly settled down.
Sometimes people's troubles come and go quickly.
Troubles one day, maybe the next day like a nobody.
Xia Fan is not a heartless person, but he knows how to regulate his mentality and emotions, if he doesn't even have this ability, how can he live in seclusion in the mountains for ten years.
The outside world is indeed longing, and after a period of serious thinking, Xia Fan decided to stay in the mountains for the time being.
If you want to talk about the specific reason, it can only be said that the time has not come.
Compared with the calm in Qingping Mountain, Qingping County outside the mountain is surging, and all inns are overcrowded, and a large number of people from unknown origins have gathered.
"Heh, a group of rabble also dares to fight the idea of "Heaven Thief", it's really an old birthday star hanging, and I'm impatient......"
Rifle Inn.
The best inn in Qingping County.
Soon after nightfall, the inn lobby was full of all kinds of sharp people, and the strange thing was that the atmosphere in the lobby was quite quiet, and there was no hustle and bustle in the past.
Standing behind the counter, the middle-aged shopkeeper wiped the fine sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief many times, and the enthusiastic shopkeeper on weekdays carefully entertained the guests at each table.
A private seat located in the corner of the second floor.
There was only one young man in a green shirt with a gloomy face sitting at the table.
He drank silently, the corners of his mouth outlining a disdainful arc, and his gaze fell on the people in the lobby from time to time through the fence.
In the eyes of the young man, this group of people in the rivers and lakes who rushed to fish in troubled waters were as ridiculous as clowns jumping off the beam, but these clowns did not know anything about themselves.
Nowadays, the outstanding disciples of the major sects on the rivers and lakes have gathered in Qingping, and there are many people from the evil and foreign ways.
Once "Heaven Thieves" appears, it is still unknown who will be the last yellow sparrow.
But there will definitely be no such stinky fish and rotten shrimp underneath.
Not much.
The sudden commotion in the lobby provoked the young man to subconsciously follow the prestige.
As a result, he suddenly smiled playfully when he saw the source of the commotion.
"It's actually Gu Xiqiao of Huanhua Sword Pavilion, how can he have time to join in this excitement, is it ......?"
In front of the counter in the lobby, Gu Xiqiao, who was as tall and tall as a crown of jade, like a beautiful son, was communicating with the shopkeeper in a soft voice, and the eyes of the young man upstairs did not stay on him for too long.
Because—
His attention was on the two women standing behind Gu Xiqiao.
Two women wearing hats and black veils over their faces.
