Chapter 153: Conspiracy
Chapter 153: Conspiracy
Although there was a little confusion in his heart, this mysterious black crystal of unknown origin was obviously an extraordinary thing, and Shen Shi didn't understand why it suddenly became a commotion when it had been silent before, but after observing it for a while, Shen Shi found that this black crystal was not only inexplicably self-healing, but it was slightly heated for a while just now, and then quickly fell into a quiet state like a deep sleep.
Since he couldn't see any clues, Shen Shi pondered for a while, then he still took this piece of black crystal back into his Ruyi bag, and then walked all the way, when he walked to the vicinity of the viewing platform, his mind turned, and he did not immediately turn back to his cave, but went down the mountain road to the other direction, to the place where Sun You lived.
On weekdays, he didn't come to Sun You's cave house many times, and there were only a few times in total, but the path was still memorized, all the way through the forest and the stream to a sunny gentle hillside, the environment here looks much better than his cave, the field of vision is broad, the vast sea is boundless, the sea breeze blows gently, making people feel relaxed and happy. And the number of caves opened here is much more than in the valley of Shen Shi, and there is a cave stone gate every other distance in a row, which is obviously a very lively golden treasure land.
Shen Shi glanced at the surrounding scene, and saw that the number of disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect who came and went here was also quite a lot, which was completely different from his own valley that had been silent and empty all day, and he also shook his head secretly with a wry smile.
Sun You's cave is in a good location on this hillside, Shen Shi walked to the stone gate of the cave, stepped forward to call the door, after a while the stone gate rumbled open, Sun You leaned out, saw Shen Shi was stunned at first, and then brought a little surprise, and said with a smile:
"Hey, why are you here, stone? Come in, come in. ”
Shen Shi walked in, and said with a smile as he walked: "Come and see you, by the way, the matter between me and the master is over for the time being, if there is nothing else, I plan to go down the mountain today." ”
Sun You casually closed the stone door with a cloud talisman, and led Shen Shi to the table in the cave to sit down, all kinds of household items in his cave were complete, and at the same time there were many but not chaotic, Shen Shi looked at it casually, in addition to the stone room in the front hall, several warehouses and rooms inside were also neatly stacked with a lot of things, which was diametrically opposed to his simple and crude furnishings, and most of the other rooms except for the bedroom were empty, as if they were worlds apart.
Shen Shi glanced around with a smile and sighed, "Every time I come to see your things, I think you kid is really comfortable." ”
Sun You smiled: "Look at your sourness, we two brothers, what do you want, just open your mouth, just take it yourself, I will never say a 'no'." ”
Shen Shi laughed, waved his hand, and said, "I'm going to go down the mountain today, I think I still have to come over to thank you again, and by the way, I also ask you if there is anything I need to do in Liuyun City or go down the mountain?"
Sun You shook his head and said, "What can I do, you don't care about me." After a pause, his face condensed slightly, but he looked at Shen Shi and said, "Shi, seriously, what are your plans for the woman named Ling Chunni at the bottom of the mountain?"
Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "I once told her that we were together, and since I said it, I don't want to go back on my word." ”
Sun You looked at him, frowned slightly, and said, "Do you really like her?"
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, and stopped talking, but after being silent for a moment again, he nodded and said calmly: "My relationship with her is indeed a bit abrupt, in fact, even I didn't expect to be with her in a short period of time, but if you want to ask me if I really like her, I think I should like it, at least, I don't regret it." ”
Sun You nodded slowly and said, "Anyway, you have thought about it yourself, although this kind of thing is not enough to violate the rules of the sect, but if a young disciple like us has such rumors spread in the door, I am afraid that it will inevitably leave a frivolous impression on the elders and seniors of the sect, which is always bad." ”
Shen Shi took a deep breath, but smiled at Sun You, and said, "Anyway, thank you for keeping it a secret for me, to be honest, apart from you, I really don't know who else I could ask for help in the door at that time." ”
Sun You waved his hand and said, "It's a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning." ”
Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "There is still half a year before the Sizheng Conference, this opportunity is rare, do you have any plans in your heart now?"
The smile on Sun You's face stiffened slightly, and after a while, there was also a hint of frustration, as if in this unspied home cave mansion, facing Shen Shi, his best friend, he finally showed a little emotion in his heart.
"What can I plan?" he gritted his teeth, snorted coldly like a lonely and angry wolf, and said coldly, "My grandfather's side, with my uncle watching, now that the last place has been set for my eldest brother Sun Heng, I can't fight at all." ”
Shen Shi thought for a while, and said tentatively: "Your Sun family is now in the limelight and powerful, maybe you can try to find out if the other elders' subordinates are ......."
Sun You shook his head, the sneer and ridicule on his face were even heavier, and he seemed to have a little bitterness, and said lightly: "It is precisely because my surname is Sun, and the Sun family is now prosperous, it is already tabooed by many people and horses in the sect. Although everyone is kind and angry on weekdays, if I really want to get here, no Yuan Dan real person will contain me. He smiled bitterly, and said, "Accepting me as an entry is equivalent to getting closer to the Sun family directly, or taking refuge in my grandfather, I am afraid that there will be a lot of opponents in the dark for no reason, and it may even provoke the idea of the real person in charge." Those Yuan Dan elders were extremely shrewd, how could they do such a stupid thing?"
Shen Shi nodded slowly, the expression on his face changed slightly, as if he was thinking about something, Sun You sighed, and said: "Forget it, don't mention these things, anyway, there is still half a year, I will barely fight for it, anyway, there are still dozens of ordinary places in the end?"
Shen Shi glanced at him and said, "Are you sure you can stand out in the competition of thousands of Ning Yuan Realm junior brothers?"
Sun You rolled his eyes and said, "It's strange to be sure." ”
Shen Shi smiled, then nodded, but beckoned to him and said, "Come here, I'll talk to you." ”
Sun You was puzzled for a moment, and said, "What?" As he spoke, he leaned over, only to see Shen Shi hugging his shoulder, but whispering a few words to him.
Sun You's expression was stunned at first, and then he was startled, with a little stunned and disbelief on his face, but gradually his eyes brightened, and even a faint excitement passed through his eyes, and after a while, he stood up suddenly, gritted his teeth, but stared at Shen Shi and said, "Stone, what are you talking about...... Really?"
Shen Shi smiled, stood up and clapped his hands, and said, "I naturally take it seriously, but you must also know about this matter, at most, it will only help you from the side, and it may not be possible." And ......" Shen Shi's eyes were a little scrutinizing, he looked at Sun You quietly, and said, "The method I thought of is related to the relationship between several close relatives of your Sun family, and it can't be regarded as a kind move, are you determined to do it?"
Sun You was silent for a moment, his expression gradually calmed down, but there was a determined look in his eyes, and he showed a little smile, and said:
"I'm the second son of the second room, do I have to live an ordinary life? I'm not convinced, I did this. ”
After speaking, he stared at Shen Shi deeply, then reached out and patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Shi, I believe you, and please help me this time." ”
Shen Shi put away his smile, his face was also solemn, and he met Sun You's gaze, and nodded in agreement.
Then he turned around and walked towards the door, and said, "Okay, that's the way it is, I'll go down the mountain, and as for that, you will first secretly investigate it, and when I return to the mountain, you will act according to the plan, and then it will depend on your luck." ”
Sun You nodded, and suddenly shouted to Shen Shi with a smile: "Hey, you guy, don't indulge in gentleness and forget about my brother." ”
Shen Shishi didn't reply, but just scolded with a smile:
"!"

Leaving Sun You's Cave Mansion, Shen Shi first went back to his own cave to pack up his things, and at the same time sorted out the items in the Ruyi bag, which was useful to take with him, and put it in the cave first if it was useless, but when he touched the black crystal, Shen Shi hesitated for a while, but after a while of hesitation, he still put it in the Ruyi bag and carried it with him.
However, when he was halfway through the mountain road to the lower pier of Jinhong Mountain, he suddenly heard a melodious and melodious sound of bells and drums coming from a very distant place behind him, such as the viewing platform, which was quite loud, and at the same time, many disciples of the Lingxiao Sect walked briskly from the mountain road to the top.
Shen Shi was a little surprised in his heart, but he heard a few passing disciples talking beside him, and just as he was talking about the beginning of the bell, in the elixir hall, Yun Ni, the famous ruling elder of the Dan Hall, was holding an apprenticeship ceremony, and took Zhong Qinglu, who had won the Dan meeting a few days ago, into his door.
This scene, with such momentum, is really unique in the Lingxiao Sect.
Shen Shi's footsteps on the mountain road paused slowly, and he turned his head to gaze deeply in the direction of the distant sea viewing platform.
The wind comes from the sea, and people pass by.
Then he suddenly smiled, shook his head, and then turned the mountain and strode away, without looking back again, only the melodious bell echoed between the sea and the sky, fluttering melodiously in the sea breeze, quietly watching the man's footsteps and figure down the mountain.
Or a little lonely, a little lonely, contrary to the hustle and bustle, to the distance.

On the viewing platform, in the elixir hall.
A woman stands in the crowd, under the watchful eye, she is graceful and beautiful, like a blooming peony, which is the most beautiful and prosperous moment of her life.
Ahead, Elder Yunni smiled at the corner of his mouth, sitting on a green jade lotus throne, surrounded by disciples, and Gan Wenqing was standing in the first place. Everyone's eyes fell on this woman who came in a decent way.
Zhong Qinglu's face was pale and generous, she thought that she would be nervous and excited, but at this time, she found that she didn't have any of these emotions, and her heart was calm, but it seemed to be blank.
She walked over quietly, facing the high master on the throne lotus, with a little admiration on her face, and then slowly bowed down in countless eyes with different emotions.
"Master!"
She lowered her head and leaned over and said this clearly, but for some reason, at this time when it should have been one of the most important things in her life, there was a faint gloomy feeling in her heart for no reason.
