Chapter 36: Extracurricular Books
January 23, 2018
Looking at Wang Jiu's majestic posture of striding forward and pushing the door in, everyone in the Li family was simply stunned.
Just like when a group of boys are debating whether to buy their favorite woman with flowers or snacks, someone has dragged the goddess directly into the grass, such a simple and crude act is simply an insult to everyone's intelligence.
"Wang Jiu, what are you doing!?" Shen Qingming exclaimed.
Wang Jiuqi said: "As you can see, visit Shen Ziqiong and persuade him to be used by us." ”
"No one will let you in!"
Wang Jiu said: "No one stopped it." ”
"Huh?"
Wang Jiu saw that Shen Qingming showed that familiar ignorant expression again, and had to explain patiently: "We officially submitted the letter of worship and Shen Zicheng's letter of introduction in accordance with the general social etiquette, if Shen Ziqiong refuses to meet him, he should reply with the same specifications." If you want to take this opportunity to express your contempt for the Li family, then you should also reply with a word like the city lord Shen Ruoshi to clarify his attitude. But Shen Ziqiong has no response now, so I have reason to believe that the other party is using this ambiguous attitude to imply that we can quietly enter the house. ”
"......" Shen Qingming was also dumbfounded by this kind of arrogant rogue logic.
Li Wanqing taught her sister next to her: "So remember that if there are scumbags who come to harass you in the future, you must refuse with the clearest attitude, otherwise these men will think that you are using an ambiguous attitude to imply that they can sneak in......"
When Shen Qingming heard this, she had an epiphany, and immediately stretched out her hand to push Li Wanqing away: "I repeat it one last time, there is no possibility between me and you!" ”
Li Wanqing, who "......" digging her own grave, has the urge to grab the ground with her head.
At this time, Wang Jiu had already pushed open the door of Shen Ziqiong's courtyard.
Unexpectedly, there were no alarm bells or three hundred axemen behind the door, and a quiet path appeared in front of everyone like a wordless invitation.
Could it be that Wang Jiu really guessed correctly!?
With questions, everyone followed Wang Jiu into the small courtyard, only to see that the scenery along the way was blurry and changeable, there seemed to be green mountains and green waters, and there seemed to be pavilions and pavilions, but the scenery was like a veil, and it was not real. If you want to stare closely, there is a mist rising, blocking people's view.
After walking like this for a while, everyone seemed to be in a quagmire, with hazy visions in front and back, left and right, and it looked particularly gloomy at night.
However, just when some people were already feeling noticeably unwell, a light came on in front of them, and a bamboo room suddenly appeared at the end of the road, half-hidden, like a silent invitation.
Behind the door, a scholar in white held a scroll in his hand and recited silently, but as his eyes skimmed over the lines of words, inside and outside the bamboo room, there seemed to be a solemn scene of bells and dings ringing in unison and thousands of people chanting.
Behind is the vast night, but in front of you seems to be infinitely splendid, which is dizzying.
From Li Wanqing downward, the four members of the Li family felt their breath stagnant at the same time, and the grand scene in front of them was like an invisible barrier, blocking people from being able to move forward half a step.
Only Wang Jiu, who firmly controlled the body of the white sword with the manipulation array, crossed the grand scene laid by the scholar without hindrance, came to the bamboo room, and completely pushed the half-hidden bamboo door away.
The scholar's gaze suddenly moved away from the book, and at the same time, all the phantoms and illusions around him disappeared.
"Good guts, good skills." The scholar nodded and gave a flat compliment, "I thought that according to the courage of the Li family, at most they would leave in embarrassment after discussing like headless flies outside the courtyard, but I didn't expect you to really dare to enter my courtyard, and you have the ability to break my book realm." No wonder the outer courtyard has been turned upside down by you, and no wonder my two unsuccessful sons have been reluctant to give up for the past few days, this is finally knowing that there is a truth outside the sky. ”
As he spoke, the scholar closed the book and stood up. Revealing a tall and muscular figure.
"I'm Shen Ziqiong, I already know your intentions, since you can pass my first two levels, please sit down and taste tea."
As soon as the scholar's sleeves bowed, there were a few more futons and a few teacups in the bamboo room.
Several members of the Li family looked at each other, then followed Wang Jiu into the bamboo room, sat down and began to taste tea.
Extraordinarily good tea, as soon as the tea is in the mouth, it turns into a light and delicate spiritual energy to nourish the body, making people's limbs and bones a little easier.
Shen Ziqiong didn't say a word, nor did she explain the origin and efficacy of the tea, just watched a few people drink the tea in the small teacup, then nodded, and said, "Since you have finished drinking tea, please go back." ”
Li Xinyu almost squirted out the last half of the tea.
This is please!? We've just arrived, okay!? Did you just invite us to tea?!
Shen Ziqiong said: "I can't help you with your affairs, and I don't want to help, Yueying and Jinghai must have their own considerations when doing things, and I have no intention of going toe-to-toe with them." But on the other hand, I don't feel the need to quarrel with the Li family endlessly, so I can entertain you with the courtesy of hospitality, but I will not grant your request. Well, please go back. ”
These words were simply frankly moving, showing the essence of his wall-riding faction unabashedly, but they also blocked the mouths of several members of the Li family.
Everyone has made it clear that they are shameless, what else can they do?
"In addition, within Shen City, there will be no one to help you, Yue Ying and Jing Hai have served as deputy city lords for nearly twenty years, and their popularity and foundation are extraordinary, and the things that the two of them decide together, except for the city lord, no one can overthrow them. Ordinary people don't even have the slightest guts to be enemies of these two people. ”
After a pause, Shen Ziqiong said: "The idea of resolving the grievances between the two families is very good, but it is not realistic. Now that the city lord and the two deputy city lords of Shen City have no intention of resolving this grudge, your wishful thinking can only bring humiliation on you. If you are sensible, go back to Qingyun City as soon as possible, it doesn't matter if you resolve your grievances or not. With the Holy Sect here, no matter how big the grudge is, it will not turn into a life-and-death battle between the two families. Without breaking the bottom line, the appropriate hatred is also conducive to stimulating the motivation of cultivation. ”
These words were reasonable and well-founded, and they were frank and sincere, which made Shen Qingming and the others feel speechless when they heard it.
When it comes to this, there's really not much more to say.
In desperation, Shen Qingming had no choice but to pin her hopes on Wang Jiu.
Wang Jiu nodded in recognition of Shen Ziqiong: "That's right, the appropriate hatred stimulation is indeed conducive to further releasing the subjective initiative of human beings." This is also the importance of market competition. For the common interests of the Shen and Li families, it is a good thing to maintain a certain hostile mood. ”
“…… How are you talking to him?! Shen Qingming never expected that Wang Jiu, who had thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be the first to defect, "According to what you say, we have traveled so far and wide to resolve the grievances of the two families, but we are poisoning the people of the two cities and becoming a disaster!?" ”
Wang Jiu looked at Shen Qingming and said, "Hongyan and Woe Water generally have higher requirements for appearance, you ......"
"I'm a dignified idol, can't I even do it!?" Shen Qingming was also surprisingly angry, but soon felt annoyed and aggrieved by the current situation.
"Really, hate to hate and hate, is it really interesting? The events of the past few decades are still remembered so clearly, and even the hatred must be passed on from generation to generation. If the ancestors had done this back then, the Xiangzhou Continent would have fallen apart long ago! ”
Shen Qingming complained resentfully, but when she saw that the people around her did not respond to her words at all, she felt discouraged in her heart.
“…… Really, I knew that coming to Shencheng would be such an experience, so I didn't listen to Shen Ziyu's fooling, and said that my grandfather wanted to see me, it was really nonsense, the recommendation letters he wrote by himself were all back! ”
Before the words fell, I saw that the scholar in white who was not shocked suddenly raised his eyelids, and asked in surprise: "Shen Ziyu?" You were recommended by Ziyu?! Why didn't you say it earlier? ”
Then, the change from cold to enthusiastic is like ice cubes in the oven.
Shen Qingming was also surprised by such a change, and responded: "We presented his letter to his family on the first day we came, but there was no follow-up at all." ”
After that, he briefly talked about the experience of the first day.
Shen Ziqiong frowned: "Dad, is he still so worried about what happened back then?" I thought that after a few decades, I could ease up emotionally, but it didn't seem so simple...... But that doesn't make sense, if Dad's attitude was resolute enough, Shen Jinghai should have driven you back to Qingyun at that time, and shouldn't have let you go to the outer courtyard, which is strange. ”
Shaking her head, Shen Ziqiong simply stood up again: "Okay, I'll go and ask in person what's going on." Please wait a little here. After saying that, the figure flashed, and it disappeared like this.
Shen Ziqiong's sudden enthusiasm and resolute style are really unpredictable, and even suspicious. Shen Qingming discussed with Li Wanqing and others, and put forward a number of hypotheses, including angry pigeons all night, closing the door and beating dogs, Shen Qingming breaking into the White Tiger Hall at night, and so on. The more we discussed, the more frightened I became.
Until Wang Jiu, with a hint of curiosity, picked up the scroll that Shen Ziqiong left in place and looked at it.
Somewhat unexpectedly, it was not a classic book of cultivating immortals, but a hand-copied record.
The name is ......
Today's Shen Ziyu's Observation Diary
——
At the same time, Shen Ziqiong had already come to the mansion of the deputy city lord Shen Jinghai.
"Rare guest." Shen Jinghai was still dressed in black, with a calm and flawless smile on his face, "What are you doing?" ”
Shen Ziqiong got straight to the point: "People from the Li family, what do you want to do?" ”
Shen Jinghai said: "This matter has nothing to do with you. ”
Shen Ziqiong said: "They were introduced by Ziyu, and they have something to do with me. ”
"That's right, then you should also know what kind of attitude the city lord had towards what happened back then."
"That was back then!"
Shen Jinghai nodded: "Yes, so I tried to test the meaning of the city lord and threw them into the outer courtyard of the Shen family." However, for 10 days, the lord of the castle has not said a word about it, what do you think this means? ”
Shen Ziqiong suddenly frowned: "I'm afraid it's ......"
"That's right, the city lord doesn't bother to pay attention to it at all!" After Shen Jinghai finished speaking, he waved his hand, "So, if Ziqiong is here for this matter, then please go back now, if the city lord doesn't change his mind, I won't change anything here." ”
