Chapter 75: Even if you don't know each other
When they first came to Fang City, the four of them traveled together, among which Zhu Shaohong was the youngest, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was a handsome young man.
Now, after a few years, although his appearance has not changed much, his bearing has calmed down a lot...
I don't know if it's a problem with Ji Bochang's eyes, but when I saw Xie Ping, I always felt that this female cultivator was a little more kitsch than a few years ago.
Zhu Shaohong and Xie Ping came hand in hand...
The two of them had been together for several years, and later Xie Ping was invited to Zhu's house as a guest, and thus formed a friendship.
At that time, Zhu Shaohong was in his half-year, and Xie Ping intended to get closer to him.
So after a certain banquet, Xie Ping took advantage of the wine to cook raw rice into cooked rice, and the two settled on the fate of Taoist couples.
Although the Zhu family is a small family, the elders of the Zhu family are not stupid, so they can naturally see Xie Ping's shrewdness, and they also know that they have ulterior motives for approaching Zhu Shaohong...
But the elders of the Zhu family took precautions, never thought that their stinky boy was not deeply involved in the world, and he couldn't control it after drinking, and he was pinched to death afterwards...
In desperation, the elders of the Zhu family organized a wedding for them, and they pinched their noses and recognized Xie Ping, the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family...
"It's really Ji Daoyou!"
Zhu Shaohong was overjoyed when he saw Ji Bochang behind him, and he arched his hand and greeted him: "Farewell for a few years, Ji Daoyou will not be harmed?" ”
"I have Lao Zhu Daoyou worried."
Ji Bochang also returned the salute, seeing that his relationship with Xie Ping seemed to be particularly intimate, he smiled in a teasing tone: "Ji didn't expect to meet two old people here. ”
Zhu Shaohong seemed to have thought of something, and said with a meaningful smile: "Sister Ping and I have become Taoist couples, and we just held a wedding banquet two years ago. ”
"Congratulations..."
Ji Bo had a guess when he saw the two of them coming hand in hand, but he was not surprised by this, and said with a smile: "The two of them are a perfect match, but they envy Ji someone." ”
"Ji Daoyou praised it falsely."
Xie Ping said with a smile: "Originally, Shaohong and I still wanted to invite Ji Daoyou to the banquet, but we didn't find Ji Daoyou's residence, and we still looked at Daoyou Haihan. ”
"Alas~ Ji has been living in a simple place for the past two years, and he hasn't gone out much."
Ji Bochang also knew that people were just polite to him, so there was no need to take it seriously, so he sighed and said: "I missed the joy of the two Taoist friends, and it should be Ji who wants to say Haihan." ”
"Ji Daoyou is still so funny~"
Xie Ping's eyes moved slightly, and then he seemed to have discovered something, and asked in surprise: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and Ji Daoyou's cultivation seems to have broken through to the late stage of qi refining?" ”
"It's a fluke, it's just a fluke..."
Ji Bochang didn't want to have anything to do with them, so he said half-truthfully: "Ji has poor cultivation talent, so he has to use his mind on alchemy, and he occasionally gains something. ”
His voice paused, and he sighed and said: "I have taken a lot of pills to practice over the years, and although my cultivation has improved, the erysipelas in my body have also accumulated deeply, and I estimate that this life is like this." ”
When Xie Ping heard this, he secretly said in his heart, 'Sure enough'.
When she saw Ji Bochang just now, she was a little surprised, why could the qualifications of the fifth-line pseudo-spirit root be able to cultivate to the late stage of qi refining so quickly...
At that time, she had some vague speculations.
Now that I heard that Ji Bochang's cultivation in the late stage of qi refining was piled up by taking a large number of pills, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in my heart...
Although she was a little disdainful in her heart, she pretended not to know the reason on her face, and said with a smile: "I never thought that Ji Daoyou was still an alchemist, admire and admire~"
Zhu Shaohong faintly showed a little sympathy on his face, but when he saw the posture of his Taoist companion, he didn't say much, and he also echoed the arch and said: "Ji Daoyou has accumulated a lot of money, admire." ”
"Don't talk about Ji..."
Ji Bochang glanced around, and asked quite incomprehensibly: "The two of you are here, are you escorting the juniors of the clan to test the spiritual root qualifications?" ”
"That's not it..."
Zhu Shaohong couldn't help but explain a little shyly when he heard this: "Although I have tested the spiritual root qualification in my family in my early years, when it comes to age, there are still a few months before I reach the crown. ”
“……”
Ji Bochang was slightly stunned, and only after coming back to his senses did he react, and asked with a look of surprise on his face: "Zhu Daoyou, is this planning to go to Xianxia Mountain to practice?" ”
"Yes..."
Zhu Shaohong bowed slightly, and explained with a smile: "I was born in the side branch of the Zhu family, and in the early years, the clan tested the qualifications, and the luck qualifications were acceptable, so I thought about coming to Fang City to try my luck, but I never thought that I would really encounter it." ”
"Zhu Dao's friendly luck~"
Giber often secretly stumbled...
Xianxia Mountain recruits disciples regardless of their background, as long as they are between the ages of ten and twenty, and the spiritual root qualifications meet the standards, they are all within the scope of recruitment.
And this Zhu Shaohong is only twenty in a few months, and he is just stuck at the boundary line of Xianxia Mountain's standard for recruiting disciples, which is really not bad...
"It is said that flowers have a reblooming day, and no one is young."
Ji Bo often thought that when he was his age, he was still a fierce man who could stay overnight in Chunyinfang for a few months, but now his body was a little short due to the long-term 'asking for immortals', and he couldn't help but sigh.
Envious sighed: "But after going around for a few years, Ji is already over forty years old, and Zhu Daoyou is still a teenager, which is really enviable~"
Seeing that it was difficult to hide the envy in his expression, Xie Ping couldn't help but smile, and felt a little complacent in his heart...
Her cultivation qualifications are not very good, in order to be with Zhu Shaohong, she has not been less thoughtful and methodical over the years, and she has not been looked down upon by others during this period...
Now although she has become the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family as she wished, in the eyes of those who care, she still can't get rid of the inherent impressions of 'shameless' and 'ulterior motives'.
So much so that she has been pressing a depression in her heart.
When she met Ji Bochang today, she thought of this person on the way to Fang City, and she thought of the 'stubborn beating' of this person on the way to Fang City, and the long-lost sense of superiority resurfaced...
The only thing she didn't understand was that at the beginning, he was also a third-level Qi refining cultivator, but in just a few years, why could Ji Bochang's cultivation rise to the late stage of Qi refining?
And after finding out that Ji Bo Chang Xiu was taking pills to improve, he was also secretly relieved, and secretly thought that it was good that he had chosen the right person in the first place...
How can a monk who is over forty years old and has already entered middle age, and has overdrawn his potential, be compared with Tianjiao, who is about to enter Xianxia Mountain to cultivate?
"By the way, Ji Daoyou~"
Xie Ping's expression moved, as if he had thought of something, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Ji Daoyou said that he wanted to find a few Taoist companions in Fang City, but now he hasn't found them?" ”
Ji Bochang was also keenly aware of the ridicule in this woman's words, and sighed half-truthfully: "It's hard to find a Taoist companion~"
"That being said..."
Xie Ping said with a smile: "But Ji Daoyou, as an alchemist, as long as the requirements for Daoist companions are not too high, they can still be found." ”
As she spoke, she also noticed Xiao An'an in Ji Bochang's hand, thinking that he had lived in Fang City for a few years, and asked, "Ji Daoyou, who is this little girl?" ”
"It's Ji's niece..."
Ji Bochang said with a smile: "Ji lived in Fang City for a few years in his early years, and some relatives and friends are still there, and he came here today to take his niece to test the spiritual root qualification." ”
"Oh~"
Xie Ping nodded abruptly...
Immediately, I didn't know what I thought, so I came to Xiao An'an's side with a smile, and joked in a teasing tone: "We are old acquaintances with your uncle, you call Aunt Xie, this is the aunt's gift to you~"
After that, she took out a high-quality Pei Yuan Dan from the storage bag, pinched it on her fingertips and handed it to Xiao An'an, as if she wanted to show off something...
