Chapter 6 Are You Also Worthy of Being a Member of the Shen Family?
January 12, 2018
After a long and arduous night, the group finally stood at the gate of Shencheng at dawn on the 12th and saw this ancient city with a history of thousands of years.
The city wall that catches the eye is more than ten zhang high, the whole body is white jade, the new style of wall tile material is used, and it does not carry any historical heaviness, the white as new wall is densely and delicately distributed with various colors of runes and spars, the arrow towers on the city wall are clustered, and the ballistas are like a forest, making this male city with a population of millions like a giant beast with teeth and claws.
The only thing that can carry a thousand-year-old history is the plaque forged by the chaotic Xuangang on the city gate, and the scarlet Shencheng character is deeply imprinted on this piece of Xuangang with uneven edges and uneven thickness.
Chaotic Xuangang, the supreme forging material condensed into a physical object by the essence of the gang, the tenacity can rank among the top three in the world in the Kyushu era, second only to the nameless white matter of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword. And such a strong forging material brings the difficulty of processing, as if climbing to the sky. Even in the Kyushu era, the cost of creating a magic weapon of Chaos Xuangang was astronomical, and in the Xiangzhou era, where the immortal civilization had greatly degraded, especially the era when the dark age had just ended two thousand years ago, and it was almost the era when Ru Mao drank blood, it was really hard to imagine how the Shen family wrote those two words.
Shen Qingming held a history book of Shencheng, hugged the Buddha's feet and said: "According to the official statement of Shen Cheng, it was the ancestor of the Shen family who used exercises such as the disintegration of the heavenly demons before his death, burned his life, and burst out in a short period of time with a super power that can be called unparalleled in Xiangzhou, condensing his life's work in those two words, and the reclamation team that followed the Shen family at that time was all happy and convinced, so this became the only city named after the family name." ”
Li Wanqing summed it up: "To put it simply, it is the threat of force, forcing others to obey, it really has the style of the Shen family." ”
Wang Jiu stared at the plaque on the main gate for a while, and said, "It's obviously corroded with acid blood curses, and the rotten spots are still there, what does it have to do with burning life?" ”
"Sour Blood Curse? What is that? ”
Wang Jiu explained: "Before the Shen family did not move the hegemonic body, they also had their own body refining powers, one of which was to practice blood, condensing the blood to the extreme, which could not only be released as a divine weapon, but also internally stimulate the acupoints around the body. The acid blood curse is one of the specialized applications, by swallowing a large amount of poison, the blood is quenched into a strong corrosive poison, but the actual combat effect is average, and it can only be used as a process processing prop. I originally thought that this kind of acrobatic magic power had been eliminated by the Shen family, but I didn't expect that there were still people using it. ”
Shen Qingming was stunned for a moment, and then threw away the history book boringly: "If you say this, I feel that the style is lost all of a sudden." ”
Li Wanqing pondered for a moment: "Two thousand years ago, they knew how to use the acid blood curse to disguise the disintegration of the Heavenly Demon, and the Shen family was not as stupid as it looked. ”
Shen Qingming raised her eyebrows: "Who do you say is stupid?!" ”
Wang Jiu said: "Of course it means you, why can't you even hear people scolding you?" ”
Li Wanqing hurriedly corrected: "I mean stupid and cute, I just pronounced and couldn't pronounce the words clearly, don't be serious." But in short, when I came to Shen Cheng this time, I am afraid that I would have to prepare for a worse situation, and the Shen family was not so easy to deal with. ”
——
Of course, the Shen family was not so easy to deal with.
From Shen Yue, who did not hesitate to sever the father-daughter relationship at the beginning, but also followed Li Fengyun to improve the magic trick of Fengyun, to Shen Ziyu, the immortal envoy who turned his face with his biological father and went straight to the Holy Sect, the two sisters and brothers in the previous generation have fully shown the goodness of the Shen family, so no one really regards the dignified Shen family as an ordinary family that can be fooled at will.
It can make a border desert city with a population of millions and thousands of years of history domineering and domineering on the signboard of the Shen family, and can be used to raise a powerful army with a number of numbers in the world for two thousand years, but it has not let the people's livelihood wither, but has made Shen Cheng more and more prosperous. This method is actually much more clever than the Li family, who shook off the head of the family and handed over all important affairs to his wife.
Therefore, Fengyun City is tied for the top three, but Shen Cheng is the only one of the Shen family.
For such a unique family, it is natural that there can be no sloppiness. The group was led by Wang Jiu and made full preparations according to the pre-arranged process.
The first is the post, which was prepared by Lu Xin for the group, and she led the clerical team to draft it overnight, carefully considering the words, neither humble nor arrogant, but full of the sincerity of the Li family to resolve the enmity of the two families, and then handed it over to Li Fengyun to copy it by hand, and finally sealed it in a mystery cryolite that has not melted for thousands of years, thinking it was solemn.
However, when such a solemn letter of worship passed through Wang Jiu's hand and was handed over to the steward of the Shen family's reception, it received a polite, respectful, but cold and emotionless reply.
"Hello, the letter has been received, according to the relevant provisions of the Shen family's reception management measures, the letter from the Li family, please put it in the empty box in the Ding San window by yourself."
The reception of the Shen family was a rather large institution, a small three-story building of brick and stone, built like a flying sword bunker, and each floor was as complex as a labyrinth. Fortunately, Wang Jiu had a strong sense of direction and a good memory, and along the map index at the entrance, he quickly found the Ding San window located in the corner of the first floor.
It turned out to be an unmanned office, a self-service reception window, with two empty boxes at the window, side by side on the left and right, with a narrow letter opening on the top, and then a description posted below.
On the left is: Recyclable. On the right: Not recyclable.
Wang Jiu thought about it for a while, and felt that with the current human processing ability, it was difficult to recycle the refined Xuanxi Cryolite, so he threw the envelope into the empty box that could not be recovered......
However, before the envelope could be taken off, it was snatched away by Shen Qingming in annoyance and shame.
"Wang Jiu, are you mentally retarded!? This kind of public humiliation, you actually take it seriously?! ”
"Or else?" Wang Jiu asked rhetorically, "Do you forcibly deliver the letter to other windows, and then dispose of it at will?" On the other hand, although the Dingsan window highly mimics the design of the garbage recycling station, there is no evidence that the Shen family directly destroyed the letters. Therefore, I think that in an unfamiliar environment, it is more rational to respect the existing rules of order than to be self-righteous and make one's own opinions. ”
"......" Shen Qingming was speechless for a while, and after a while, he asked weakly, "Why don't you try it with Shen Ziyu's letter?" ”
After the Qingyun competition, Shen Ziyu left a letter of recommendation to Shen Cheng for Shen Qingming, and that was also a stepping stone in the real sense of the trip. It's just that after all, the group is here on behalf of the Li family, and if they have to rely on the Shen family's letter to be received, it will be too shameless.
Now it seems that it is not easy to use any face, so it is better to honestly retreat and seek the second.
"Oh, Shen Ziyu's family letter? Tell me earlier. ”
This time, the steward at the reception looked better, and his tone seemed much more familiar.
"Since I am a friend of Young Master Shen, then according to the relevant provisions of the management measures, I will be in the C queue, and there are still 1443 letters waiting to be processed in front of me, and it is expected that it will only take 10 days to get to you."
Shen Qingming was shocked when she heard this: "Ten days?!" Is the Shen family's reception work so busy? Have you to wait so long for even an expedited entry? ”
The steward smiled apologetically: "You misunderstood, if it is an expedited channel, it will generally be processed within 3 minutes, but queue C will have to wait for a long time." ”
"It turns out that the C queue is the lowest level?! That's a letter from your lord's own son! ”
The steward explained helplessly: "Mr. Shen Ziyu has been reduced to an idle person in the family because of a quarrel with the city lord, so he ......."
“…… What a big hole! Shen Qingming gritted her teeth and complained about Shen Ziyu's unreliability, but at this moment, there was indeed no better way.
Anyway, it's only mid-January, and there is still more than a month before Shen Ruoshi's birthday banquet, 10 days is 10 days, and a few people can afford to wait.
It's better than delivering it to the non-recyclable box at Ding San's window, right?
"Oh, that's not going to happen, the old men of the Shen family attach great importance to the sanitation work at the reception, and the boxes at Ding San's window have to be dealt with every day."
