Chiba Town, Tic Tac Toe Lane.

In the past, the dirty streets were cleaned early in the morning, and a few servants in green clothes of the Li family could be vaguely seen looking towards the gate of the town, maintaining the order and cleanliness of the town.

The Li family's behavior is logically a bit excessive, but the yamen doesn't care, and even fully cooperates if necessary, all because the second lady of the Li family, who worshiped the Baiyun Sect, is coming back to visit relatives today, and it is said that there are a few fellow disciples with her.

Not to mention that the Baiyun Sect is in Chiba Town, even in the entire Canglan Mansion, it is at the level of a hegemon, that is, the master of the Canglan Mansion, and he also holds the position of the deputy sect master of the Baiyun Sect, and his influence can be seen.

At the end of the alley, there is a slightly dilapidated shop, and the plaque hangs the words 'Cao's Stone Fang'.

Inside the house, Cao An woke up from between the piles of materials, looked at the two-inch-tall knife-wielding puppet beside him, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"It seems that the poor road ...... No, I'm still great. ”

The sword-wielding puppet is a middle-aged Confucian student, lifelike, with a long knife in his hand, fluttering clothes, a deep and lofty bearing, and the iron painting silver hook on the pedestal [Heavenly Sword Song Missing] four big characters.

Cao An is not of this world.

In his previous life, he was a family preacher, influenced by his parents and teachers, and his temperament was weak, and he was occasionally a little sullen.

After finishing college, he returned to Taoism, and he got the old master to inherit the jade book, and studied the magic and martial arts, but he didn't feel very authentic, but he also learned it for more than ten years, until he asked the magic to be perfect, and he almost killed someone when he went down the mountain to exorcise evil spirits; As for martial arts, the effect is ...... Don't mention it.

He died unexpectedly ten days ago, and his soul pierced this realm, replacing Cao An, the little Yanshi who had the same name as him, and now he is dealing with the mess he left behind.

He is already a master who is afraid of trouble, and with more than ten years of Taoist career, he is somewhat taboo about the theory of cause and effect.

So much so that after crossing over, the first thing to do is to deal with the cause and effect left by the original body, and some accounts have to be paid off as soon as possible.

When he was eight years old, 'Cao An''s family was ruined, fled all the way, traveled here alone, fell into the river when he was dying, went down the river, and was rescued by Li Yuxiu, the second lady of the Li family in Chiba Town, and became her playmate, in fact, he was a slave of the Li family.

They are all seven or eight years old, and seeing that the second miss of the Li family looks the same as her sister, she has always been treated as her own sister, doubling her care and obeying her.

While growing up with her, while passing on the skills of the Yanshi to the bitter scholar, this situation has lasted for four years, but others do not understand Cao An's feelings, coupled with the natural outstanding appearance of this young boy and girl, over time, naturally some rumors have reached the ears of the Li family master.

In a fit of rage, Li Lianshan ordered Cao An to be beaten half to death and driven out of the Li family.

But the connection between the two has not been severed since then, and Cao An, who has become a small master, built a stone workshop in the town to make a living, and promised to make a puppet for her every year until she was eighteen years old.

This year is the last one.

"It's a pity, you don't have much martial arts talent, and you still want to make a puppet by leapfrogging, it's simply the way to take death, and the backlash of Yanshi's technique is not something you can bear, unlike me, this skill was full in the last life, and this little backlash can be completely exempted." This is Cao An's accidental discovery after fusing his memory, please magic is Yanshi technique, although there are a few differences, but the principle is the same.

And the performance of Yanshi Technique in this realm is simply different from the previous life.

"Get your body, accept your kindness, I will help you repay your promise and kindness, and I will avenge your revenge, you can go with peace of mind."

Cao An also knew that the original body couldn't hear it, but he couldn't help but say it.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a gong outside the door, and the shouts of the servants of the Li family came one after another.

"Second Miss is back!"

Cao An raised his head, holding the puppet in his hand, and his face showed joy.

"Are you back, pay this account back first!"

He walked out of the room, looked around, and had already gathered a large number of 'forced welcome' villagers, frowned, bypassed the crowd, and followed the path in his memory, directly to the gate of the Li Mansion, where there were relatively few people.

He walked around like this, and when he arrived at the gate of the Li Mansion, he was just in time for the two women and a man of the White Cloud Sect to stop at the gate of the Li Mansion on horses.

Everyone in the Li family came forward under the leadership of Li Lianshan, and the little guy bowed down and took the reins of the horse and walked away, Li Lianshan was full of smiles.

"Chiba Town welcomes all the high-ranking disciples of the Upper Sect to come, thank you for your teaching to Xiu'er, and you take care of Xiu'er."

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at his daughter, "Yuxiu has grown up!" ”

Li Yuxiu stepped forward happily and hugged Li Lianshan's arm, "Daddy, this is the senior brother Shen Qingshu I mentioned to you in the letter, and this is my senior sister Yin Li, senior brother and sister, this is my father Li Lianshan." ”

"I've seen Uncle Li!"

"I've seen Uncle Li!"

In her memory, Li Yuxiu is lively and smart, small and exquisite, and after more than a year, she has become more graceful.

Good things are always infectious, and this scene is indeed beautiful.

Cao An looked at this scene with a smile, quietly waiting for them to finish their greetings, and then walked out of the circle of people and stepped forward.

"Uncle Li, Yuxiu!" In my memory, the original body has always been called that.

The abrupt voice interrupted the politeness of several people, and they all turned their heads and looked at Cao An, who was smiling warmly.

Li Lianshan frowned slightly, his eyes were cold, but Li Yuxiu restrained his smile, glanced at Shen Qingshu with some uneasiness, and looked at Cao An with some disgust and impatience in his eyes.

Shen Qingshu kept smiling, "Who is this?" ”

Before Li Lianshan could speak, Li Yuxiu had already spoken first, "A former servant of our Li family, my childhood playmate, probably heard that I came back and came to dip it." ”

Coming to get bare?

Li Yuxiu's lark-like voice came into his ears, although it was not big, but it was harsh, making Cao An feel like eating a fly, the last time he saw Li Yuxiu, it was not like this, then she would call herself Brother Cao.

It doesn't seem like a bad thing, but in this case, you can walk away after paying off the cause and effect. The thought in Cao An's mind flashed away.

Shen Qingshu's smile was still the same, "Oh, then why not now?" ”

Li Lianshan replied: "This person was saved by Yuxiu ten years ago, when he was young, he couldn't bear to live on the streets, so he left Xiu'er as a playmate, six years ago, considering that the child grew up, after all, men and women are different, and he should also support himself, I Li Jiaren did his duty, so I let him out of the Li family." ”

Shen Qingshu nodded, "So that's the case, Uncle Li is really kind-hearted, but Dou Mi Ensheng Mi Qiu, some people are afraid that they may not be grateful, this opening is Uncle Li and Yuxiu, and those who don't know think it is the son of the Li family." ”

"Rural villagers, don't know the etiquette, let Shen Gongzi laugh, come here, drive away!"

Two burly servants in Tsing Yi walked up one left and one right, Cao An restrained his smile and looked calm, "Wait a minute!" ”

"The second lady has a noble status, I am a rural villager, I can't get the light, this time I came here, just to return the things that the second miss originally ordered in me to her, just now I didn't think about it well, how offended." As he spoke, Cao An held the puppet in both hands and raised it slightly.

Hearing Cao An's change of title, Li Yuxiu's heart twitched, and there was something strange between her eyebrows, as if she had lost something, but after looking at the senior brother she admired next to her, this unhappiness was thrown out of the clouds in an instant.

The servant in Tsing Yi picked up the puppet and ran in front of the person, but was slapped to the ground by Li Yuxiu.

"Who's going to ask for your broken wood, okay, the thing has been delivered, you can go." Listening to the muttering from time to time in the crowd, looking at their expressions, and pointing and pointing, Li Yuxiu thought of the previous rumors and became angry.

It's not the first time she's heard such rumors, and she didn't care about it before, but now that the senior brother is here, she also has an aversion to words like 'childhood sweetheart' and 'golden boy and girl' for the first time.

Cao An didn't pay attention to it, and delivered it, that is, he fulfilled his promise, as for whether she wanted it or not, it was her business, so she immediately arched her hand and turned to leave.

That Shen Qingshu looked at the puppet on the ground, his eyes were fixed, and Yin Li on the side also changed his complexion slightly, Li Yuxiu was from a humble background, he had not been in the sect for a long time, and he didn't know the goods, but they weren't.

Shen Qingshu bent down and picked up the puppet, "Wait a minute! ”

Cao An turned around, "What else is the matter with this son?" ”

"You made this puppet? Are you a Yanshi? ”

"Yes!" Cao An knew that he couldn't avoid this problem, and he used to be a puppet for Li Yuxiu every year, even if he denied it, it was useless.

Shen Qingshu stared slightly, "What sect do you learn from?" ”

"There is no teacher, it's just a little fragmentary inheritance of the family heirloom, which I have figured out over the years."

"The Cao family? There doesn't seem to be a Yanshi family surnamed Cao on the rivers and lakes. Shen Qingshu muttered a sentence and looked at Cao An again.

"You can rely on the incomplete information to make this puppet, I think you have some talent in Yanshi art, I will give you a chance to become my slave, are you willing?"

On the rivers and lakes, Yanshi and Danshi are scarce characters, Danshi can refine pills to help practice, and Yanshi can refine puppets and launch puppets in battle to play an unexpected role.

Every Yan Shi and Dan Master who has achieved cultivation will be regarded as a guest of honor by all forces, Shen Qingshu never thought that he could meet a Yan Master in this poor and remote place, and he immediately thought about it.

Cao An rolled his eyes, how could such a thing as becoming your slave, when it comes to you, it looks like some kind of charity that you should be grateful for.

"Thank you Gongzi for your love, Cao is used to being casual, but he just wants to farm well in the countryside."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was so quiet that they could hear the needles falling, they didn't know what Yan Shi was, but they knew that one of them was a disciple of the Baiyun Sect that the government wanted to please, and the other was a rural villager, with a status of one in the sky and one underground.

Isn't becoming a slave the equivalent of a step to the sky? didn't think that Cao An actually refused.

Shen Qingshu was a little surprised, he was dismissed in public, and his face was a little unhappy.

"You can think about it, being a slave of my Shen Qingshu, the status is better than that of the miscellaneous disciples of this sect, with me, I will not treat you badly, and the Yanshi technique hidden in this sect can also be studied for you, which is by no means comparable to the incomplete inheritance that you pondered yourself."

"I thought about it, thank you for your kindness." Cao An refused simply and decisively.

Li Yuxiu frowned, "Senior brother, he doesn't know how to do it, it's just that he has a little talent in Yanshi skills, with your identity, why is it difficult to find such a servant." ”

Shen Qingshu smiled and didn't speak, not because there was any difficulty, but because it was impossible, with his current status, even if he was the lowest-level Yanshi in the rivers and lakes, he would only have a good share, and anyone who could have a Yanshi servant was a master who was famous in all directions.

It's just that now, the words have been spoken, and it is impossible to change them.

A hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hand generously. "Well, since you don't want to, then you can go."

Cao An turned around and walked into the crowd, without any nostalgia.
