Chapter 4: The Mysterious Woman

"Boss, have you had any new books lately?"

"There are dozens of copies!"

"Bring me a few books on yin and yang. ”

"Oh! Look at what yin and yang you look at as a young young man, come and take a look at the latest "Xiaoxiang Don't Remember", you won't regret it!"

"What is the book about?"

"It's about the poignant love story between Miss Qianjin and the poor scholar," the boss paused, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Actually, it's a story about how a poor scholar kidnapped Miss Qianjin, young man, if you learn a few hands, it can be said that you will be of infinite use!"

Zhang Xi thought to himself: "Where does the lame girl who washes the dishes look like a daughter?" But the devil sent God, but he still bought the book and carried it in his arms with joy.

I went to find a few bookstores in a row, except for a few more books in my arms, there was no one about yin and yang, he looked depressed, that girl was really strange, she didn't love anything, she preferred to read, and she only talked about yin and yang. In the past month, he has visited all the bookstores in the city, but there are only a few books that talk about yin and yang, and he can't find new ones.

"What's so good about that girl, stupid," Zhang Xi complained as he walked back, "I've been in Shancheng for half a year, and I didn't know that the bookstore sells books." He remembered the stupid girl's reaction when he mentioned the bookstore that day, "It's pretty good when I laugh." ”

Qianxue didn't know that anyone was worried about her, and the sudden appearance of the strings made her anxious, and she watched for days on end, and the strings kept spinning slowly like a snail, which made her feel a lot more relieved. She carefully recalled the strange scene that happened in the cave that day, could it be that the black and white colors of the strings were the qi of yin and yang? Thinking of this, she was excited, as if she had revealed the ultimate secret of the strings. But when she thought about it, she was extremely depressed, and she didn't know anything about yin and yang.

She depressedly flipped through the two books given to her by Zhang Xi, and she had read these two books no less than ten times, but there was only one sentence about yin and yang: Tao gave birth to yin and yang, yin and yang turned into five elements, and the five elements gave birth to all things. But what is the Tao? The answer in the book is quite ingenious, saying that the Tao is the source, and you should not ask any more questions, otherwise there will be something more original than the Tao.

But what's the use of that?

Qianxue was annoyed, but the shopkeeper Wu was also a little distracted these days, and there was a very temperamental woman who came to Banyue, and she was also very generous, so he arranged a good room for her. But he hadn't seen her out of the house for the last few days, so it couldn't have been an accident, right? When he arrived in the backyard, he saw Qianxue squatting under a tree in a daze, her hair was messy, he shook his head and called, "Qianxue, come here." ”

"What to do. ”

"You go to the No. 3 room of Tianzi and listen to Miss Shu's instructions. Shopkeeper Wu said.

Qianxue reluctantly agreed, and when she arrived at room three, she knocked on the door and said, "Miss Shu, it was Shopkeeper Wu who called me." She shouted three times, but no one answered, she wondered in her heart, reached out and pushed the door, "squeak", the door opened.

The door was unlocked, and she stepped inside. The room was the most ordinary, she glanced at it casually, and when she saw that no one was there, she planned to go out. A cold voice came from behind him: "Fellow Daoist, what a good means!"

Qianxue was startled, and hurriedly turned around, but what caught her eye was a woman in her twenties, her clear and transparent eyes staring at her coldly. Qian Xue hurriedly explained: "Miss Shu, it was Shopkeeper Wu who asked me to come. I just knocked on the door and you weren't there, so I just came in to take a look. ”

"Fellow Daoist, if you can easily pass through the prohibition in front of the door, your cultivation must not be low, why bother sneaking around. ”

"Daoyou, no, no, you misunderstood, my name is Qianxue, not Daoyou. Qianxue looked dazed.

The woman snorted, stretched out a little finger, and after a while, a small fireball formed on her little finger, and the temperature around her suddenly increased a lot, and with a slight wave, the small fireball went straight to Qianxue. Qianxue subconsciously dodged the fireball, and the fireball hit the wooden table behind her, but in an instant, the table turned to ashes! Before she could exclaim, another fireball appeared in front of her, and she had no choice but to block it with her hand, looking at the fireball that was about to touch her with a panicked face.

"How dare you take ...... with your bare hands," the woman exclaimed when she saw that Qianxue didn't even cast any defensive spells. But before she finished speaking, her face changed, and after the fireball hit Qianxue, it only fluttered in her hand for a while, and then disappeared without a trace, and Qianxue was unscathed.

Qianxue was a little surprised, and said, "Then, where did the fireball go?" After speaking, she looked around, and after a while, her face turned white, and she obviously felt that the strings in her body were running fast, which was extremely strange.

"You can directly absorb the mana refined by the cultivator, it's really powerful!" The woman's face was slightly gloomy, and then, the words changed, "However, I would love to know how much you can absorb?" After speaking, the shadow of a small fireball appeared on her little finger.

After listening to the woman's words, Qianxue knew that the fireball must have been sucked away by the strings, no wonder it turned so fast, and hurriedly said: "Miss Shu, I'm really not a fellow Taoist, my name is Qianxue." ”

The woman stared at Qianxue for a long time before she smiled and said, "I can see it, but since you have such a good physique, why don't you go to cultivate immortals and stay in the world?"

"I don't have a spiritual root, so I can't cultivate immortals. "Senyuki-do.

The woman looked at Qianxue incredulously, how could a physique that could even absorb mana not be able to communicate with the aura of heaven and earth. She didn't believe it at all, so she asked Qianxue for the details of the spirit root. Qian Xue said about the spiritual root measurement seven years ago, and the woman thought for a while, then smiled: "Your physique is special, and you have absorbed the spiritual energy of the probe, so I think you don't have a spiritual root." ”

Qianxue's heart was empty, there was no string in her body back then! But when she remembered what Pharmacist Mo said, her heart moved: Could it be that string is the spiritual root? Her heart beat so hard that she couldn't help but ask, "Is the spiritual root in the dantian?" What does it look like?"

"What does the spiritual root look like?" Hearing this, the woman circled around Qianxue twice with great interest, "Could it be that there is something in your dantian?"

"I'm just asking, what's there?"

The woman glanced at Qianxue and said, "You have to think carefully, I will leave here in two days." ”

Qianxue looked at the closed door, her mind was turning, and she was silent for a moment, and then went back to Wu's shopkeeper. On the way back, she saw Zhang Xi coming out of the backyard with several books, so she stopped him and said, "Zhang Xi, what book did you buy this time?" Zhang Xi also saw Qianxue, and hid the book behind him in a panic, and said: "Where did I buy it, it was the bookstore owner who forced it into me." Qianxue grabbed the book without saying a word, walked into the backyard, sat down at a stone table, and flipped through the books.

Zhang Xi followed in and sat opposite Qianxue. Stared at Qianxue a little nervously, not letting go of any of her subtle expressions, and didn't know what he wanted to see.

After about a stick of incense, Qianxue frowned and put the book on the stone table, and when she saw that Zhang Xi was still there, she asked, "Zhang Xi, what are these books talking about?"

Zhang Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't you just watch it?"

"I don't understand it, what does the book say that women should dress up beautifully, so what exactly is beautiful?"

"Well, this beauty is beauty. ”

"What is beauty?"

"This, not ugly is beautiful. ”

"What's that ugly?"

"If it's not beautiful, it's ugly. ”

Hearing this, Qianxue's eyes lit up, and she said: "Not bad, it's not bad, it's not beautiful or ugly, it's not ugly it's beautiful, it turns out that beauty and ugliness are just yin and yang." As soon as she finished speaking, the mysterious woman in the third room of Tianzi almost burst out of laughter and said secretly: "What a stupid girl." ”

After listening to Qianxue's words, Zhang Xi muttered in his heart: "What kind of bullshit yin and yang, it's only beautiful to look at!" He peeked at Qianxue a few more times, and the more he looked at it, the more beautiful he became, and he couldn't help but say: "Qianxue, are you free tomorrow?"

"Not available. ”

Zhang Xi only felt a mouthful of blood blocked in his throat, and he didn't vomit or swallow. The eyes of resentment stared at Qianxue and said, "Qianxue, can't you be nice to me?"

"Why should I be nice to you?" Qianxue gave him a strange look.

"I, I gave you two books. Zhang Xi regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, but he really couldn't find a decent reason.

Qian Xue listened, and was silent for a long time before saying, "Zhang Xi, I am grateful for everything you have done to me, but it is impossible for us. If you think you've lost something, I'll make up for it. ”

"Oh no, how could it be. Zhang Xian was incoherent, he actually wanted to know the impossible reason, but he was afraid to know, so he left dejectedly.

The sun is setting over the mountains, and night is falling. Chiyuki knew it was time to make a decision. She knew what the mysterious woman meant, and she didn't want to miss this opportunity. She didn't know who the woman was, and she didn't understand the woman's character, but she could only gamble.

She knocked on the door of Tianzi No. 3 room, as for what was waiting for her behind the door, maybe only God knew.
