Along the way, Shi Yi was guessing Xiao Shenhe's purpose for seeing him, although he was confident that he didn't show any horses, but he also had to be careful, especially these days, with an in-depth understanding of Xiuzhen, Shi Yi felt more and more mysterious and powerful about Xiuzhen.

Just when Shi Yi was thinking about this, the old servant Uncle Zhong had already taken Shi Yi to Xiao Shenhe's study again.

Shi Yi immediately expelled the distracting thoughts in his heart, and stepped into the study, only to find that Shi Yi was not the only one in the study, but there was another person Shi Yi who also recognized it, it was Xiao Duxue's father, Xiao Shenhe's youngest son Xiao Ren.

I saw him standing beside the desk, staring at the desk while studying the ink, and admiring from time to time. As for Xiao Shenhe himself, he was waving on the desk at this time.

Shi Yi saw that Xiao Shen's painting was flourishing, so naturally he would not be a bad person, so he quietly walked over and stood aside and watched it with interest.

To Shi Yi's surprise, Xiao Shenhe's painting is not a landscape, the other is not a figure, and it is not a common pine, bamboo, flower and bird, but a tiger, a tiger descending from the mountain.

Xiao Shenhe's brushstrokes are smooth, and he makes a lifelike tiger leap onto the paper in his hand, obviously painting everyone, but Shi Yi looks at this painting, how to look at it awkwardly, as for what is wrong, he can't say for a while.

"What do you think of my painting?" Just as Shi Yi was watching, Xiao Shenhe had already finished the painting, stamped his own seal, turned his head and asked Shi Yi with a smile.

"The younger generation is not deeply interested in calligraphy and painting, and I really dare not beak. Hearing this, Shi Yi hurriedly said a few words of modesty.

"What did Lingzhou Xiaoyou say, the fan surface of your folding fan, I think it came from your own hand, it seems very good in my opinion, why should you be too humble. Xiao Shenhe smiled and pushed the scroll in front of Shi Yi.

"But it was clumsy, but it made Senior Xiao laugh. As for this painting, there seems to be something wrong with the tiger eyes painted by Senior Xiao. Shi Yi knew that Xiao Shenhe was referring to the narcissus on Zhao Lingzhou's fan, and it was not good to continue to shirk it, so he directly pointed out the problem of this painting.

It turned out that Shi Yi took a closer look and found that the eyes of the tiger on this painting were actually closed, Shi Yi didn't believe that this was caused by Xiao Shenhe's mistake, obviously meant something, so he simply said it directly.

"San'er, what do you think of this painting for your father?" Xiao Shenhe was noncommittal after hearing Shi Yi's words, and turned his head to Xiao Ren and asked.

The son felt that there was nothing wrong with his father's painting, and it was really a rare picture of a tiger. Xiao Ren hurriedly praised when he heard this.

"Well, you go out first, I have something to talk about with Lingzhou Xiaoyou alone. Xiao Shenhe nodded with a flat expression when he heard this, and then said to Xiao Ren.

After Xiao Ren left, Xiao Shenhe picked up the pen again, and he didn't see any extra movements, seemingly casually touching the tiger's eyes, and the whole painting was suddenly completely different from before, and the tiger seemed to be alive in the painting.

"Lingzhou Xiaoyou, look at it again, can you draw it right this time?" Xiao Shenhe put down his pen and asked Shi Yi again.

"It's better now than it was before. Shi Yi replied when he heard this.

"Yes, even you, the guest, can see that this kind of painting is better, but my Xiao family descendants are used to it. The tiger with its eyes closed on this painting is not the current situation of the Xiao family, the Xiao family seems to have infinite scenery in the country of Rong Liu, but the height of our former Xiuzhen family, how can it be compared with the glory and wealth now? The saddest thing is that only I think it should not be so, but the descendants are very attached to these earthly things. Xiao Shenhe sighed and said to Shi Yi.

Shi Yi is not even a monk now, so naturally he can't empathize with Xiao Shenhe's words, just when he really didn't know what to say, Xiao Shenhe pointed to the tiger picture, and said to Shi Yi again:

"In the painting, the ink is divided into five colors, which are burnt, heavy, thick, light, and clear, in my opinion, people are the same, and we cultivators, just on top of this thick color in the center, can become a great monk one step closer, and even ascend to the immortal road, and will leave a strong stroke in life, and take a step back will only be classified as a light mortal. Hey, now my Xiao family is at a moment when the dark color is gradually fading. ”

"Patriarch Xiao is too worried, as long as the family heritage is still there, the Xiuzhen family will not decline, but it will take time to rise again. If the Xiao patriarch is worried because of the problem of cultivating pills, I will definitely show the head of the family when I go back this time, the Xiao and Zhao families are in the same spirit, and my Zhao family will definitely not abandon the Xiao family. Shi Yi casually coped with two sentences, and the empty promise also came as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Then I have to thank Lingzhou Xiaoyou, I have been hearing about it these days, Lingzhou Xiaoyou buried his head in the pile of books, and then think about my unsuccessful children and grandchildren, and I hope that Xiaoyou will not be blamed. Xiao Shenhe immediately explained.

"Where, I am also desperate to find Dan Fang so that I can return to my life. Shi Yi hurriedly explained.

"I also heard that Xiaoyou and Twilight Xue are quite compatible, and I have always hoped that the Xiao and Zhao families can return to the in-law relationship of seventy years ago, I don't know what Xiaoyou wants. Xiao Shenhe changed the topic and asked Shi Yi with a smile.

Shi Yi didn't expect Xiao Shenhe to ask this kind of question coldly, and he didn't react for a while.

"Of course, I know that Twilight is just a mortal, and for a monk like Xiaoyou, there must be concerns in his heart. Here I can guarantee that as long as your relationship is settled, my Xiao family's cultivation resources will definitely be tilted towards the girl of Dusk Xue, and it will never drag Xiaoyou back. There is also my Xiao family's secret talisman making method, which can also be handed over to the hands of Lingzhou Xiaoyou. Xiao Shenhe saw that Shi Yi did not respond, and hurriedly increased his chips.

"Patriarch Xiao has a sudden incident, and I can't make the decision myself, everything needs to go back to my father before I can make a decision. "To be honest, Shi Yi is a little moved, especially the means of secret talisman making, which will definitely make Shi Yi take some less detours in talisman making, provided that he is Zhao Lingzhou himself, but unfortunately his identity is fake, and it is inevitable to be exposed, only sooner or later, after knowing the truth, Xiao Shenhe will not let alone marry his granddaughter, I am afraid that his heart will be torn apart.

"Haha, I'll fix a book right away, and when you go back, you will hand it over to your father on my behalf. Xiao Shenhe laughed, patted Shi Yi's shoulder and said.

The corners of Shi Yi's mouth twitched when he heard this, this Xiao Shenhe looked confident, he had always been called a little friend and a little friend before, but now he has changed his name, and now he can only use this trick to drag the words, I hope that after the matter is revealed, it will not have too much impact on Xiao Duxue.

"Oh, yes, Lingzhou. The main reason for calling you here this time is that there will be a monk exchange conference in the near future, and everyone will exchange ideas at that time, maybe you can find what you need, I wonder if you are interested in Lingzhou?"
