Chapter 30: Dilemma
"Congratulations to Senior Brother on his great progress!" Seeing Shen Cong, Huo Wei was shocked in his heart. The face is as warm as jade, which is obviously a sign of great progress. And Shen Cong's breath also had a hint of fierceness, although it was only a little, it was enough to make Huo Wei cold.
It's only been two months, why is that? Standing in front of Shen Cong, Huo Wei's back couldn't help but bow slightly, the sense of danger that Shen Cong gave him was much stronger than before, making Huo Wei completely unable to adapt to it.
"I was in trouble before. Shen Cong smiled slightly, and the last trace of sword qi on his body was freely restrained. Without saying anything to Huo Wei, Shen Cong walked out of the cultivation room directly. Shen Cong still has a lot to do, and he doesn't want to waste more time here.
After two months of consumption, the power is already insufficient. At the beginning, the charge was not enough, and after continuous use, the power fell below the red line. There is also a little lack of money on the body, which can be ignored, when you get to the inner door, there are enough ways to get money two, which is different from the treatment of the outer disciples in the past.
I wanted to go to the Sword King Peak, but after thinking about it, Shen Cong turned around and went to the accommodation of the outer disciples. I hadn't seen Qin Wu for a long time, and Shen Cong didn't know how he was doing at the outer gate. It has only been two months in the outside world, and Shen Cong has been accelerated by time, but more than a year has passed, and Shen Cong naturally wants to visit the only friend of the outer gate.
Re-entering the outer door residence, Shen Cong had a sudden illusion. The disciples who came and went looked at Shen Cong a little strangely, they didn't know Shen Cong, and the Luoshui Sect recruited new disciples before January. Shen Cong, who was stupid and rich at the beginning, was not within the scope of their understanding.
When he came to the grass house where he lived and stood in front of the door, Shen Cong stopped. There was no one in the grass house, and looking at the dust on the ground, it was also the result of not stepping on it for many days. Shen Cong's brows couldn't help frowning, just when a disciple next to him passed by, Shen Cong directly intercepted him.
"What are you going to do that are you Shen Cong?" the man was a little angry, but when he saw Shen Cong's face and the big knife on his back, his eyes couldn't help but change, and he asked with some uncertainty.
Shen Cong nodded, "It's me, I just want to ask you something, it's troublesome." ”
"Senior Brother Shen, you can ask casually, as long as I know something, I will definitely sue you. The man was greatly excited, and there was still a reluctant touch before. The bark of the human shadow tree, what Shen Cong did at the beginning, also had a far-reaching impact.
Shen Cong smiled slightly and pointed to the grass hut, "Do you know where Qin Wu lives inside, where he is now, it seems that he has not returned for many days." ”
"Oh, you said Senior Brother Qin, I know that. The man hurriedly nodded, but then sighed again, "Senior Brother Qin has left the sect and returned to the family, if Senior Brother Shen came a few days ago, he might see each other again." ”
"Back to the family?" Shen never couldn't help but be stunned, Qin Wu came from a family, and Shen had always known about this. At the beginning, Qin Wu came to the Luoshui faction, which was also the request of his family, but now it has only been less than a year, and he has taken the initiative to go back.
"Do you know what's going on?"
"I don't know, Senior Brother Qin didn't say it. However, before Senior Brother Qin left, he asked someone to go to the inner gate to look for you, but he never found you. The man said softly, probably he usually has a good relationship with Qin Wu, and it is a pity that Qin Wu left.
Shen Cong frowned, he was still in the cultivation room a few days ago, how could ordinary inner disciples know where he was. Even if they knew, they couldn't go to him. The cultivation room is not allowed to be disturbed, it is precisely because of this that Shen Cong went there to cultivate, but now he doesn't want to miss the send-off. And it probably cost some money to ask someone to go to the inner door to find him.
"Senior Brother Qin seems to have left a letter from Steward Li, you can go and take a look. The man continued.
"Letters. Shen Cong nodded, "I know, thank you." This is for you, and I hope it will have some effect on you. Shen Cong reached into the Qiankun bag and took out a bottle of elixir and threw it to the disciple, then turned around and left, and the direction was Steward Li's residence.
The body method was unconsciously moved, and for Qin Wu's departure, Shen Cong was more worried than regret that he did not send him off. If there is no major incident, Qin Wu will definitely not go back, and something must happen in the family that makes Qin Wu have to leave.
In just a moment, Shen Cong stood outside the door of Steward Li's residence. Sensing that there was someone in the residence, Shen Cong stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Steward Li is here, and disciple Shen Cong came to pay a visit." The voice was loud and loud, directly drowning out the knock on the door.
After a few moments, the door opened. Steward Li looked at Shen Cong outside the door, his eyes flashed, but he recognized Shen Cong. At the beginning, because of Qin Wu's affection, he came forward to help Shen Cong once. Now it seems redundant. Single-handedly went straight through the Fantasy Alley and won the first place, with such strength, how could he need his own support in the first place. At that time, he taught Shen Cong a lesson as an elder, but now that he thinks about it, it is ridiculous.
The outer disciples who have watched it for decades, but in the end, they missed the biggest fish, and Steward Li sometimes couldn't help but sigh. Invited Shen Cong into the hall, the tea was brewed, and Steward Li calmed down his mood slightly.
"You are a rare guest, why are you here today?" The steward of the outer gate listened majestic, but some places were not as good as the inner disciples, especially the official disciples of the inner gate, which were even more incomparable. For Shen Cong, Steward Li put him on an equal footing.
"I heard that before Qin Wu left, he left a letter on your side, I wonder if you can show it to me?"
"Naturally, the letter left by Qin Wu's child was originally for you. Steward Li smiled, walked to the cabinet, and took out a letter, "He is in a hurry, and what he wants to say to you is left in the letter, you can take a look." ”
Shen Cong nodded, took the envelope and spread it out, which was Qin Wu's handwriting. At the beginning, they lived under the same roof, and they naturally understood Qin Wu's handwriting. After a cup of tea, Shen Cong's face improved slightly after reading the letter in his hand.
In the letter, although Qin Wu did not mention a few reasons for leaving the sect, it can be seen between the lines that Qin Wu was not in a state of anxiety at that time. On the contrary, Qin Wu said a lot of words of encouragement to Shen Cong, which made Shen Cong laugh.
Putting the envelope aside, Shen Cong looked at Steward Li, "I don't know if the steward knows, what is the reason for Qin Wu to leave the sect? But what happened to his family, he had to go back?"
"There's something really wrong with his family. Steward Li nodded, and when he saw Shen Cong's brows furrowed, he couldn't help but smile, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing, his father returned from a serious injury and is now unable to preside over the affairs of the clan, so he is recalled to serve as the patriarch." ”
"Go back and be the patriarch. Hearing the answer, Shen never couldn't help but be stunned. I thought about thousands of bad things, but I didn't expect it to end like this, and I couldn't help but smile dumbly. It is indeed not a bad thing to go back to serve as the patriarch, even if there will be fewer meetings in the future, Shen Cong should also be happy for Qin Wu.
After sitting at Steward Li's residence for a while, Shen Cong left. Since Qin Wu's matter was not a bad thing, Shen Cong also put his mind at ease. Walking in the direction of Sword King Peak, there are a lot of things now, Shen Cong needs to make a good plan, and he has no other mood to continue to be busy with other things.
The road flowed through Shen Cong's thoughts, and when he came to the mountain peak, he was just about to walk towards his courtyard, when suddenly a person stopped Shen Cong's way. The posture is arrogant and obviously deliberate. Shen Cong could have crashed past, but now he wanted to see what the other party wanted.
"Are you Shen Cong?" the person glanced at Shen Cong from the corner of his eye, his expression was very disdainful, and he didn't put Shen Cong in his eyes at all.
Shen Cong nodded undeniably, glanced left and right, and at some point, there were already some more people around. And this trend is still increasing, as if Shen Cong is going to be directly encircled here.
"When I ask you, why don't you answer directly? Do you understand the etiquette, is it difficult that I still need to teach you this!" The person who came roared and looked at Shen Cong condescendingly, "Are you Shen Cong, just promise, if not, get out immediately, Lao Tzu has no time to chat with you." ”
Shen Cong still didn't answer, and the people who came looked angry and were just about to continue to drink. Suddenly, a fine light burst out from Shen Cong's eyes, this person didn't have time to react, he intuitively felt a terrifying sword light attacking him, and immediately jumped back in horror.
"Zheng Yu, what are you doing? A secret reprimand came, and Zheng Yu woke up suddenly, not knowing when he was ten steps away from Shen Cong, and there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
"What's going on, the knife. Zheng Yu muttered, thinking about it carefully, but Shen came from a gaze, and he scared himself like this, which was very shameful, which made Zheng Yu's face hot. looked at Shen Cong with resentment, but at this moment, he asked him to step forward, but he didn't dare. As for loud scolding, it is even more impossible to do so.
The ignorant can be fearless, but when they know that the other person is powerful, they can still be fearless. Either their own strength is extremely strong, or they are very brainless. To be able to become an inner disciple, there is no brainless existence, so Zheng Yu was afraid, and he wanted to retreat.
"It seems that this senior brother has nothing to do with me. Shen Cong smiled slightly and turned to leave.
"You" Zheng Yu couldn't help but be anxious, his purpose today was to teach Shen Cong a lesson, but now he was frightened away by a gaze, and the lesson was naturally impossible to talk about, but he couldn't let Shen Cong leave like this. But he stepped forward to stop him, he didn't dare, he wanted to say something, but he found that his words were blank, and he was stunned for a moment.
Several people around looked at each other, wanting to make a move, but couldn't find a reason. Attacking the official disciples of the inner door for no reason, the sin in the middle is too big, I wanted Zheng Yu to make a start, but I didn't think that this head was not opened, so it wilted directly, which was unexpected.
"Shen Cong, don't go. A voice came from afar, and a figure came out of the crowd and chased after him from behind. Shen Cong's footsteps didn't stop, as if he hadn't heard the shouting at all, and still walked by himself.
A trace of anger flashed in Lin Qinghui's eyes, and he hit Shen Cong's shoulder with a heavy hand, if you really want to grasp it, the inner disciples will have to lie in bed for half a year. I didn't want to grab it as soon as my hand passed, Shen Cong suddenly accelerated and directly dodged his grasp. Lin Qinghui didn't expect it, and his figure couldn't help but be crooked.
"How could Senior Brother Lin miss and let that Shen Cong dodge this move. A few people in the distance were puzzled.
"Maybe it was careless, or maybe it was Shen Cong's luck and he just escaped by luck. ”
"It should be, otherwise with his strength, how can he enter the inner gate and worship the master. Saying this, several people showed a trace of envy in their eyes, but more of them were jealousy.
"Senior brother is looking for me?" Shen Cong turned around, grabbed Lin Qinghui's arm, and pulled him around.
"Senior Brother Nie asked me to call you to go, just go with me. Lin Qinghui naturally commanded, wanting to withdraw his arm, but when he moved, he couldn't break free. Shen Cong's palm seemed to be like an iron hoop, and his arm was firmly fixed. Lin Qinghui didn't believe in evil, so he used all his strength this time, but after earning it, not only did he not withdraw his arm, but he had a sharp pain in his muscles and bones.
ps: Tomorrow on the list, I hope everyone can help, thank you!
