The voice was very crisp, and it even sounded a little pleasant, but the Dantang disciples behind the wooden cabinet all frowned, and in the next moment, they saw a round elixir bone with a grayish color rolling out, presumably the elixir that fell out after the jade bottle was broken.

Then, a figure suddenly walked out from behind the tall medicine shelf, her steps seemed to be a little stiff and heavy, so that she didn't even notice the elixir under her feet, and stepped directly on it, stepping on the unlucky elixir at once. The corners of the eyes of several Dantang disciples next to him twitched, although it was only for a moment, but they had already recognized that this was a "Gray Lotus Pill", which was one of the second-grade spirit pills, and it was very valuable......

Among the crowd, a woman who looked to be about thirty frowned and said, "Senior Sister Zhong, why are you so careless?"

Everyone looked at each other, only to see that the one who walked out from behind the medicine shelf was a young woman, with a slender figure, fair skin, beautiful eyebrows and bright eyes on her face, Yao nose and cherry lips, and her appearance was extremely beautiful, but at this moment, her face looked slightly pale for some reason, and her eyes showed a little incredible stunned gaze, and she looked at Shen Shi who was also a little stunned behind the wooden cabinet.

"Shen Shi?" she called softly, with confusion and inexplicable excitement. There seemed to be a sudden gust of wind blowing outside the main hall, brushing her cheeks, and a few strands of hair fluttered slightly, making her complexion more and more beautiful.

Shen Shi was also looking at her, the first glance was stunned and unfamiliar, in his memory he didn't remember that he knew this woman, but at the second glance he suddenly felt a little familiar, as if the beautiful woman's face outline, he actually had some impressions, so he took a third look.

Many years ago, a certain face in his memory finally slowly overlapped with the beautiful woman in front of him, the difference was that the baby's fat face at the beginning seemed to have turned into a butterfly, so beautiful that he couldn't recognize it for a while.

Time seemed to come to a sudden standstill at that moment, and the memories of the past quietly rose from the depths of the water, and those time and memories on Qingyu Island came alive all of a sudden, and came to my heart.

Then a smile appeared on the corner of Shen Shi's mouth, beckoned to the girl, and said with a smile:

"Hey, long time no see, Zhong Qinglu. ”

A calm greeting, but after three years, in the sleeve tube that no one could see, Zhong Qinglu's white palm clenched suddenly. She stared at the man who stood quietly behind the counter, looked at his smiling face, her lips opened and closed slightly, as if a thousand words passed through her heart, but in the end, she finally smiled only lightly, showing a gentle smile like when the flowers bloom in the spring field, smiled, and said softly:

"Long time no see. ”

※※※

There was some commotion among the surrounding Lingxiao Sect disciples, whether it was those disciples outside the wooden cabinet or the Dantang disciples under the medicine shelf in the wooden cabinet, there was something strange in their eyes when they looked at Shen Shi at this moment.

Since Zhong Qinglu broke through to the Ning Yuan Realm three years ago and ascended to Jinhong Mountain, she was quickly absorbed by the Dan Hall, and showed her extraordinary talent in alchemy, and it is said that she was even appreciated by Yun Ni, the first elder of the Dan Hall, and it is very likely that she will be officially accepted into the sect and become the third personal disciple of Elder Yun Ni.

And in the past three years, with the improvement of Taoism and the growth of age, Zhong Qinglu's childhood obesity faded as he grew up, and was replaced by an amazing beauty, young and beautiful This young woman with a high talent and a promising future, plus her family background is also good, and now Zhong Qinglu is faintly one of the most outstanding disciples among the young generation of new disciples on Jinhong Mountain, and it is the object of admiration in the hearts of many male disciples.

And once it is possible to form a Taoist couple with her, it is vulgar to say that it is really a double harvest of people and money. So these days, there are more than one or two people on Jinhong Mountain who have pursued Zhong Qinglu, and there are even some senior brothers on the mountain for many years.

There is Ji Anfu in this.

Ji Anfu is the round-faced Dantang disciple who is standing in front of Shen Shi at this moment, across the counter, he is twenty-nine years old this year, he has been on the mountain for ten years, and his Dao practice has reached the middle level of the Ning Yuan Realm, which is two rounds earlier than Zhong Qinglu's time, but except for those elders in the Ling Xiao Sect, they are all commensurate with senior brothers and sisters.

Ji Anfu has been in the Dantang for many years, when Zhong Qinglu first came, he didn't notice this little junior sister who was still ordinary at the time, although there were already faint rumors at that time that Zhong Qinglu had a good talent for alchemy, but every disciple who could be admitted to the Dantang would have some talent in alchemy, otherwise he wouldn't have come here, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

However, as she grew older, Zhong Qinglu seemed to suddenly become as beautiful as a flower, and like a delicate peony, the more she opened, the more gorgeous she became, and the more she looked at it, the more coquettish she became, which made countless people tempted, and her future and talent were gradually revealed.

Ji Anfu is rarely tempted by women, but this time he is tempted, Zhong Qinglu's usual appearance and demeanor, unconsciously he remembered it in his heart, he felt that this woman must be his own, not to mention...... He felt that he had already encountered some bottlenecks in his cultivation, and the talent behind Zhong Qinglu and the future prospect, if he could be with her, he would definitely have a lot of resources, so if he broke through to the high level of the Ning Yuan Realm and even with the help of Zhong Qinglu's possible spiritual elixir funding, the realm of the divine artistic conception might not be able to be snooped in the future.

This woman is mine!

Just every time he thought of this in the dead of night in the cave, Ji Anfu felt that he was faintly hot, and his heart was full of longing. However, he was not carried away by this desire after all, a young disciple like Zhong Qinglu, who has been favored, Ling Xiao Sect has always attached great importance to it, and it will never be useful. However, by virtue of the fact that he is also a disciple of Dantang, he has contact with Zhong Qinglu on weekdays, and then took care of her a few times intentionally or unintentionally, so he gradually got closer to her silently, and usually chatted a few words when he saw it.

Although the relationship is progressing slowly, Ji Anfu feels that only time is long, and his wish will definitely be fulfilled.

But at this time, on such a day when he looked no different from usual, suddenly a stinky boy who was in the inexplicable realm and even in the qi refining realm appeared in front of his eyes, and Zhong Qinglu seemed to look at him differently.

In fact, Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu didn't say anything more after they met, they just looked at each other for a while, smiled and said hello, at least in the eyes of most people, but Ji Anfu was keenly aware that Zhong Qinglu's eyes seemed to be a little wrong, she looked at the eyes of this young man named Shen Shi, although it was extremely hidden, but it was really different from looking at other people's eyes.

At least, she had never seen herself that way.

And when the two of them looked at each other, Ji Anfu stood at the counter, standing between the two of them, but he spontaneously gave birth to an extremely angry feeling, as if he did not exist, in the eyes of these two people, at that moment, there was no senior brother at all, and even as if he did not exist at all.

He slowly turned around and stared at Shen Shi, the muscles on his face twisting slightly.

※※※

Shen Shi quickly noticed the strange gaze cast by someone next to him, and the strong and almost undisguised hostility even surprised him, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that the round-faced senior brother by the counter just now had a face sinking like water, looking at him coldly, and then said in a deep voice:

"As I said, we don't have this rule here, all elixirs have to be purchased with spirit crystals. ”

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that Senior Brother Du had forgotten to explain here, but when he left, he said it clearly, not like a deceitful appearance.

Just as he was hesitating, the figure in front of him flashed, but it was Zhong Qinglu who walked over quickly, looking at her face, which was slightly pale from surprise at the beginning, and had recovered at this time, her delicate and beautiful complexion like a flower was radiant, and even made the people around her stunned, and the corner of her mouth smiled, as if she was happy in her heart at this time, and said:

"What are you going to do?"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and told her the matter, Zhong Qinglu turned around and said to Ji Anfu: "Senior Brother Ji, please give me Yun Fu, I'll check it out." ”

Ji Anfu held Shen Shi's cloud talisman in his hand, and almost wanted to smash it directly on the ground, but fortunately, he still had some sense after all, knowing that it was meaningless except to make others laugh and despise himself, so he just snorted at the moment and handed the cloud talisman to Zhong Qinglu.

Zhong Qinglu took the cloud talisman and whispered to Shen Shi across the counter, "Come over here." ”

As he spoke, he motioned for Shen Shi to follow her to the edge of the wooden cabinet in the main hall, and Shen Shi followed him, but he always felt that there seemed to be a thorn in his back, so he turned around and took a look, only to see Ji Anfu's eyes behind him as if he wanted to breathe fire, glaring at him fiercely, and after a while, another disciple came to get the medicine, and he reluctantly turned around.

Shen Shi turned around expressionlessly, frowned slightly, thoughtfully, and glanced at Zhong Qinglu, who was walking in front of him, but didn't say anything.

Zhong Qinglu took Shen Shi to the side, and then said softly: "You wait here, I'll go into the apse to find Senior Sister Min, who is in charge of the affairs of the main hall, to help you ask." ”

Shen Shi nodded, glanced at her, and said softly, "Thank you." ”

Zhong Qinglu shook his head, looked at him as if he wanted to speak and stopped, hesitated for a moment, and walked quickly in the direction of the apse.

In these few actions, anyone can see that the relationship between Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu is a little different, and a lot of whispers have sounded in the hall, all of them asking each other about Shen Shi's origins.

Shen Shi didn't expect that he had just come back and inexplicably become the focus of this kind of focus, which was not too good, especially when he had not yet broken through in his Taoism. He only watched his nose and nose, and stood silently in the corner, quietly waiting.

Fortunately, Zhong Qinglu didn't go for too long, and after only a while, her figure returned to the elixir hall again, and at the same time, there was an extra white jade vial in her hand.

Walking briskly all the way, it seemed that her mood was a little eager, but after appearing from behind the medicine shelf, her steps suddenly slowed down again, as if she had discovered something, and suddenly became a little reserved, but when she looked at Shen Shi, there was still joy and joy in the depths of her eyes.

"Here you go. She walked up to Shen Shi, handed over the jade bottle, and then said with a smile, "Senior Brother Du has indeed explained, this is the Barrier Breaking Pill." ”

Shen Shi took it, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, nodded and smiled: "Thank you." ”

Zhong Qinglu shook his head and said, "It's just a trivial matter." As she spoke, she was silent for a moment, and then looked at Shen Shi with a little more exploration in her eyes, but at the moment, there were many people in this elixir hall, and it was obviously not the place to talk deeply, so after thinking about it, she said, "When did you come back, by the way, do the others know?"

Shen Shi smiled and said, "I just came back today, and you are the first ...... I have seen."

His voice suddenly lowered, as if he didn't know what to say for a while, and Zhong Qinglu's cheeks seemed to be inadvertently reddened a little.

The breeze blew, her eyes were as bright as stars, and her complexion was charming, but it was like a beautiful flower that finally bloomed after many years, blooming in front of Shen Shi's eyes.
