Chapter 31: Stone Sinking in the Sea (Qingyun Jiachang)
The person who took care of Shao Jie was a gray-haired old woman, who was also a beautiful female cultivator in her early years, but she met an old enemy on a trip and fled with serious injuries.
Because of this, the foundation was injured, and the cultivation has been stagnant in the early stage of foundation building, and there is no possibility of advancement, so he can only live incognito in Haoshan City by picking spiritual plants.
After the old woman taught Shao Jie to induce qi into her body, she let her pick spiritual plants with her.
But she has a bad temper and often beats and scolds her, which also makes Shao Jie miserable.
For Shao Jie, everything she encountered in the Immortal Cultivation Realm was completely unfamiliar, something she had never experienced in the Shao clan.
She has also been reduced from a pampered daughter of a patriarch to a low-level minor cultivator who is cautious and cautious everywhere.
It's just that she knows that since the loss of her parents and brother, she can only rely on herself if she wants to live.
Shao Jie has been lively since she was a child, and she tried her best to please the old woman.
is also this kind of temperament, which gradually made the relationship between the old woman and her much more harmonious.
It's just that the old woman's body is getting worse and worse, and she is gradually bedridden.
During a casual conversation, the old woman told Shao Jie that it was a young monk who had rescued her and had come with her sword, because she only knew a female cultivator in the city, so she was entrusted with her care and gave her a spirit stone.
That spirit stone was originally left to take care of Shao Jie, and was later taken by the old woman to buy the pill of Zengmangyuan.
It's just that she didn't expect that her body could no longer withstand the impact of the powerful aura of the pill at all, which caused her to be injured and injured, and she couldn't get up again.
It didn't take long for the old woman to run out of Mangyuan and fall.
After that, Shao Jie took in Meng Li, who also had a rough life, and the two lived together in the city for several years.
"Until she died, I didn't know who the monk who saved me was, and it was only later that I learned that the cultivation who could fly with the sword was at least on the foundation. Shao Jie came back to her senses from the memories and wiped her unconsciously moist face.
"Don't be sad, it's all over. Cheng Zhaozhao reached out to wipe away her tears.
How to spend her life in this, Shao Jie did not elaborate, but from her evasive expression, Cheng Zhaozhao felt that it must be extremely difficult.
Compared with what happened to Shao Jie, her life in Daping Village can be described as carefree.
She missed Old Man Ji's chatter a little.
"Chisato, so your name is Chisato, you're still alive, aren't you?"
On the side of the stone bed, Meng Li cautiously looked at the 'White Chopping Eagle' on it.
Shao Jie said coldly: "Meng Li, come here." ”
Hearing Shao Jie call her so seriously, Meng Li was apprehensive, but she understood the reason, and immediately approached Cheng Zhaozhao and saluted: "Sister Cheng, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." You can ...... if you want to hit or penalize."
"What's wrong with you?" Cheng Zhaozhao also asked with an expression on his face.
"I, I didn't make a mistake by being careless and letting Chisato eat something that shouldn't have been eaten.
The fault is that I promised my sister that the process would protect it well, but she didn't do it. ”
When facing Cheng Zhaozhao, Meng Li lowered his head and didn't dare to look at her, but he couldn't stop crying.
Although Shao Jie beside her couldn't bear it, she felt that it would be okay if she could let Meng Li know the seriousness of the matter through this matter, so she didn't stop it silently.
"Don't cry. Are you crying bag trying to flood my cave?" Cheng Zhaozhao reached out and poked the hairball on her head.
Meng Li covered his mouth when he heard this, and stopped sobbing, but instead convulsed: "Sister Cheng, I, I know it's wrong, next time... Never again. ”
Cheng Zhaozhao was very angry about this matter at first, because of Meng Li, Qianli almost died.
She couldn't wait to shoot this little girl away immediately.
It's just that Qianli has experienced this change, from a mortal bird to a demon beast, and in the future, she will be able to gallop better in the immortal cultivation world, which she is happy about.
Now for the sake of Shao Jie's face, she feels that these two are offset.
So he said: "Knowing mistakes can be changed, and good is great." It's just that you still have to be punished. ”
"What, what punishment? I... I'll do it. Meng Li was nervous, but his eyes were firm.
"If you are a thousand miles away from it, you will never come near it again. ”
"Huh?"
Meng Li was sad at the moment, but he didn't dare to speak out with his mouth flat.
Shao Jie said: "Sister Cheng, Xiao Li, she really likes your Qianli, it is better for you to punish her for taking care of Qianli during this period of time until she recovers." ”
"Are you serious?" Cheng Zhaozhao glanced at her.
Shao Jie nodded: "Sister Cheng, I won't tell you, Meng Li has the talent to read the voice of the spirit beast since he was a child, you might as well let her stay, if there is anything wrong during this time, she can also tell you in time." ”
And this talent?
Cheng Zhaozhao glanced at Qianli, and then nodded: "It's okay." ”
Hearing this, Meng Li raised his head in surprise: "Sister Cheng, are you still willing to let me take care of Qianli?"
"Yes, it's just that you are not allowed to feed it any more. ”
Meng Li nodded like garlic at the moment, quickly ran to the table, and whispered to Qianli that she would take good care of it.
Cheng Zhaozhao and Shao Jie looked at each other and smiled, and the two walked out of the cave and came to the cliff outside the cave.
Cheng Zhaozhao hasn't been here for a while, and as far as the eye can see, the market on the opposite side of the cliff is in full view.
Not far away, among the misty peaks, unknown spirit beasts spread their wings and soared into the sky, letting out a crisp chirp.
Haoshan City was full of immortal energy, and it was not until today that Cheng Zhaozhao looked at it carefully.
Looking at Cheng Zhaozhao's side face, Shao Jie was in a trance, thinking that she was standing on the hillside of the Shao clan with her, at that time, she, her brother and Sister Cheng always went there to play together.
"I didn't expect to see you here. ”
Cheng Zhaozhao turned his head and looked at him: "We are all alive, which is a happy thing." ”
Shao Jie nodded: "So, there was a task in the mission hall in Fang City to find the people of the Shao clan in the south that you issued?"
"You see? That mission seems to have been pulled away a long time ago. Cheng Zhaozhao replied.
There is a large light curtain in the mission hall, and the messages posted on it can be seen by the monks who come and go.
It's just that there is a lot of news about the release of the task, and the task that she spent a few spirit stones on has already been squeezed down in less than a moment.
Shao Jie nodded and shook her head: "I didn't see it, it was told to me by a monk I knew." You don't know how excited I was at the time, but when I got to the mission hall, the steward didn't remember who had issued the mission. ”
Cheng Zhaozhao was a little embarrassed, it stands to reason that the monk's memory is very good, although she only went for a while, there is no reason why she doesn't remember her.
"Maybe I didn't give enough spirit stones. Shao Jie said helplessly.
Cheng Zhaozhao understood what she meant.
"Do you have any other whereabouts?"
If the two of them were alive, would there be other people from the Shao clan who would also be able to survive the disaster?
Shao Jie shook her head: "The snowy region in the north of the Cangwu Mountain Range is far away from this mountain and long water, there is no city there, and few monks will go to experience it.
Over the years, I have also released news one after another, but all of them have been lost. My mother, uncles, brothers, and little fat people, I don't know if they are still alive. ”
