"Well, here you go, take it back and take it when you cultivate. ”

In the stone room, Zhong Qinglu handed Zhong Qinglu a white jade bottle standing aside, Zhong Qingzhu took it and opened it, was taken aback, and said, "Qi Nourishing Pill?"

Zhong Qinglu nodded, with a bit of smugness on his face, and said, "Recently, I have become almost completely familiar with refining the Qi Cultivation Pill, and I can achieve at least three times in five times, or even four times, so I have a lot of surplus." For the sake of you borrowing me a lot of spirit crystals to buy that Dan furnace before, this bottle will be given to you. ”

Zhong Qinglu grinned, took it, and said, "Then thank you, sister." ”

Zhong Qinglu's relationship with this distant cousin now seems to be much closer than when she first came to the island, I don't know if it's because she has a little friendship after getting along for a long time, or because she has grown up a little bit in the past few years, and her temper is no longer as irritable as she was at the beginning, in short, she is not bad to Zhong Qingzhu now, but maybe it's just because Zhong Qingzhu generously lent her money to buy the Dan furnace.

Listening to Zhong Qingzhu's thanks, Zhong Qinglu seemed to be in a better mood, smiled and walked to the side of the table to tinker with something, Zhong Qingzhu walked to her side and took a look, and said strangely: "Hey, there are two bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill, sister, do you plan to take it yourself or sell it to Dantang?"

Zhong Qinglu hesitated for a moment, glanced at her, and said, "No, I plan to give these two bottles to Shen Shi." ”

Zhong Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect this answer at all, and after being stunned for a moment, her voice sounded a little strange, and said, "Sister, these two bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill are worth a lot of money, why do you have to give them to Senior Brother Shen?"

Zhong Qinglu wanted to speak and stopped, his delicate brows furrowed, and he suddenly said impatiently: "Oh, what do you do when you ask so much, anyway, I just told him." It's the elixir I refined myself, don't worry about so much!"

Zhong Qingzhu took a step back, and after a moment of silence, he said in a low voice, "Oh, I see." ”

Zhong Qinglu put away the two bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill on the table, hid them in his arms, and then walked out, Zhong Qingzhu followed her out of the door of the stone room, and then watched her walk all the way, and that direction seemed to be Shen Shi's cave.

She stared blankly for a moment, then turned away with a blank face.

"What are you doing here?"

At the same time, in the Shen Shi Cave Mansion, Sun You looked at the large stack of white paper on the table with a confused expression, and Shen Shi who was concentrating on writing various twisted and retro font graphics on the paper.

Shen Shi glanced at him and said simply: "Fu Zheng." ”

Sun You looked around, and then at Shen Shi, with his family background, of course, it was impossible to be completely ignorant of some basic common sense in the cultivation realm, suddenly he gasped, his eyes widened, and said, "No, not only have you learned the Five Elements Technique, but now you have to cultivate even the way of the Fu Gong together?"

Shen Shi paused for a moment, seemed to hesitate for a moment, then raised his head and smiled, and said, "It's just that I like this kind of thing, and I don't take it very seriously when I have free time." ”

Sun You breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I said, this kind of path is too secluded, and it involves a lot of energy, and with our realm of refining qi, it is really not suitable to get involved in it." Otherwise, it will delay one's own cultivation, and it will not be good. ”

Shen Shi smiled, nodded at him, and then said, "You didn't go to the beast farm to do things today, and came to find me, is there something wrong?"

Sun You nodded, but he didn't speak immediately for a while, Shen Shi waited for a while, but found that there was no sound over there, and he didn't feel a little strange, he looked up at him in amazement, and said, "What's wrong?"

Sun You's expression on his face was a little twisted, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Shen Shi, we have known each other for three years, and we are neighbors again, this is ...... We're good brothers, aren't we?"

Shen Shi didn't speak, but looking at Sun You's expression slowly became a little weird, Sun You laughed dryly, and said, "Okay, okay, I won't play dumb riddles with you, I mean I want to say ......"

Shen Shi saw that he suddenly had a pause in the future, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Sun You stomped his feet and said, "Shen Shi, Brother Shen, borrow a little spirit crystal from the younger brother!"

Shen Shi's body was shocked, he looked at Sun You, and was speechless for a long time.

※※※

"You're doing a good job over there in the beast farm, why do you suddenly ask for so much money for a hundred spirit crystals?"

Shen Shi looked at Sun You with some incredulity and asked in amazement.

Sun You's face was a little twisted, he wanted to speak and stopped, it seemed that there was something unspeakable, Shen Shi frowned, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, he can now be said to be a triple burden, he needs spirit crystals for his own cultivation, Zhong Qinglu also needs spirit crystals for alchemy, and after waiting for the talisman from the Five Elements Palace, he also needs spirit crystals to repay his debts every month, and now he is really a citrus that is a little allergic to spirit crystals, and he is really a little unacceptable when Sun You suddenly speaks.

Sun You was thinking about wanting to speak, and suddenly he only heard a few knocks on the stone door, but someone knocked on the door, Shen Shi walked over and opened the door with a cloud talisman, but it was Zhong Qinglu who walked in, his face was calm, but when he saw Shen Shi, he still showed a rare faint smile on his face, and said, "Shen Shi, I'm here...... Hey, Sun You, why are you here?"

Sun Youben looked at Zhong Qinglu a little strangely, and when he heard her unkind question, he rolled his eyes, snorted, and said, "Shen Shi is my brother, I'll come to see him." ”

Zhong Qinglu didn't deal with him in the first place, and he was not inferior to him in terms of sharp teeth and sharp mouth, so he was willing to suffer this loss, laughed, and said: "Your brother's name is Sun Heng, that is your cousin." ”

Sun You snorted, and it seemed that he was going to fight back, but Shen Shi hurriedly interrupted the two of them and said to Zhong Qinglu, "Is there something wrong?"

Zhong Qinglu originally touched one hand into his arms, but when he saw Sun You present, he thought about it for a while and put it down, and then looked at Shen Shidao:

"Give me ten spirit crystals. ”

"Smack", Shen Shi's hand trembled, and the cloud talisman he grabbed in his palm fell to the ground, with a bitter look on his face.

※※※

"I can't live this day......"

Shen Shi sat on the deck bound for Demon Island, with his back against the side of the ship, with a sad face, and sighed for a long time. At the end of yesterday, Sun You was still disappointed, he finally did not explain why he suddenly needed a hundred spirit crystals, and Shen Shi did not give it to him, not that he was unwilling to lend money to Sun You, but that Shen Shi himself did not have so many spirit crystals.

In contrast, Zhong Qinglu, who came to the door to ask for spirit crystals, because the number of needs was small, so in Sun You's strange gaze, Shen Shi couldn't explain it to him, so he had to give Zhong Qinglu ten spirit crystals.

Thinking of all this, his shriveled pockets, and the heavy debts that he expected in the future, Shen Shi couldn't help but have a headache. His appearance fell in the eyes of Gan Ze, who was on the same boat as him, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange, and couldn't help but say, "Shen Shi, what's wrong with you?"

Shen Shi woke up, raised his head and glanced at him, smiled bitterly and didn't mean to explain, and said, "Uh...... It's nothing, I'm just worried that the speed of earning spirit crystals is too slow and not enough. ”

Gan Ze was stunned for a moment, and said, "Aren't we just cultivating on weekdays, and I haven't heard that you have any other cultivation that consumes a lot of spirit crystals, why is it not enough?"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "Hmm...... Didn't you tell me about the talisman the other day?"

Gan Ze glanced at him and said with a smile: "What do you mean, could it be that you really went to study?"

"Well, I really learned. ”

Gan Ze said sincerely: "You are amazing, the disciples of the Qi Refining Realm directly began to cultivate the way of the talisman, you are really the first person I have ever seen." ”

Shen Shi smiled bitterly and said, "But I found that the spirit crystals are not enough now." ”

Gan Ze thought for a moment, nodded and said: "The talisman is indeed extremely expensive, and with our current ability, it is indeed a little difficult in terms of financial resources. But if you want to earn Spirit Crystals faster and more, it's not impossible. ”

Shen Shi raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, what a method, let's hear it." ”

Gan Ze smiled and said, "You wander around the edge of the demon island every day, hunting those lowest-level demon beasts, how much you get each time, if you want to earn more spirit crystals, go deep into the demon island with me, and look for those high-level demon beasts." ”

Shen Shi glanced up at him, but saw that although Gan Ze was smiling, there was no joke in his expression, it seemed that this sentence was very serious, but after Shen Shi pondered for a while, he finally shook his head and said: "It's better to forget it first, my Taoism is a small realm lower than yours, and it still doesn't feel very good to beat those fierce demon beasts on the island." ”

Gan Ze shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then you can do whatever you want, anyway, I think this is a way." ”

Shen Shi smiled and said, "When I have cultivated to the high level of the Qi Refining Realm, I will accompany you, not to mention the depths of the Demon Island, even if it is that demon trapping cave, we can take a peek or two." ”

Gan Ze's face changed suddenly.

Shen Shi saw it in his eyes and frowned, "What's wrong?"

Gan Zeqiang smiled, shook his head, and said, "The monsters in that demon hunting cave are very powerful, we still have to be fully prepared to go there." ”

Shen Shi nodded and said, "Of course." ”

After Gan Ze said this, he didn't seem to like to continue chatting, and quickly closed his eyes to recuperate, and Shen Shi stopped bothering him when he saw this, and the deck soon fell into silence.

※※※

When they arrived at the Demon Island and got off the big boat, the two parted ways outside the woods as before, Gan Ze walked to the depths of the Demon Island, while Shen Shi walked along the beach on the outskirts of the Demon Island.

It's just that this day is still a little different compared to the past, especially after he walked for a while, making sure that there was no one around but himself, his face showed a little excitement and expectation, but he reached out and touched the small Ruyi ring on his left hand, and after a while, there was an extra yellow rune paper three inches wide and four inches long in his right hand.

The strange and distorted runes formed a rune array, clearly appearing on this yellow rune paper, if it is a monk who knows the five elements of magic and the rune together, he will recognize this low-level rune paper, commonly known as "yellow rune paper", there are a total of three yang water runes together to form a rune array, and then after the infusion, the spiritual power contained in it faintly emanated, it is a "water archery" rune.
