Chapter 137: Reason

Shen Shi's memory is not bad, and he recognized at a glance that the old man in front of him with white hair and a goatee was the old man he had seen at the bottom of the sea of books the day before yesterday, but he met him by chance that day, that is, he casually/talked a few words, and then separated, but he didn't expect to see him again in the Five Elements Hall of the Art Hall today.

Shen Shi was slightly surprised, and then turned his eyes to look around, only to see that there was no one around, and the huge Five Elements Hall was empty, and even Senior Sister Xu didn't know where to go at the moment. He shook his head, walked up to the old man, and said with a smile: "Senior, why are you here, uh......" He suddenly paused, as if he remembered something, and said, "Ah, could it be that you are also from the Shutang?"

Old man Pu smiled and said, "Yes, I've been in this magic hall for many years. As he spoke, he patted the open space beside him and said, "Come, sit down and talk, don't stand all the time, lest I have to keep looking up at you before I can speak." ”

"Oooh. Shen Shi came to his senses, hurriedly agreed, and sat down next to Old Man Pu, and at the same time stretched his waist and let out a sigh.

Old man Pu raised his head and took a sip of wine, looked at him, and said with a smile: "What, is this tired?"

Shen Shi laughed and said, "I was practicing a spell in that quiet room before, but I didn't move much, and I don't know how long I stayed, and my body felt a little stiff. ”

Old man Pu smiled and said, "It won't be long, but it's just a day and a night." Come, do you want to have a drink to relieve your fatigue?"

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, thank you seniors." As he spoke, he took the wine bottle handed over by the old man Pu, raised his head and took a sip, only to feel that the wine was rich in aroma, mellow and sweet, and had a unique flavor, but for some reason, it was a little familiar.

The expression on his face suddenly became a little gloomy and silent, and Old Man Pu raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the matter, but the taste of this wine is not to your liking?"

Shen Shi shook his head and said, "The seniors misunderstood, this adult fine wine is the best wine, how can it be bad?"

Old man Pu let out an "oh", took back the wine bottle, looked at him more, and smiled: "I can't imagine that you can still recognize the origin of this wine, since this Huadiao wine is not bad, why do you seem to be depressed after drinking it?"

Shen Shi was silent, the gloomy mood he had before, naturally he thought of the old white monkey and the stone pig who died in the Guiyuan Realm from this Huadiao wine, and the three-year trip to the Demon Realm, except for Xiao Hei who had been following him, only these two people were his only friends. The life and death of that day, all kinds of scenes still seem to be close to me.

Hanging his head for a moment, Shen Shi sighed in his heart, shook his head to cheer up, smiled bitterly at Old Man Pu, and said, "It's rude, but I thought of the two people I have passed away from this Huadiao wine in front of me...... relatives, so I was a little sad for a while, and I didn't mean to be disrespectful to my seniors, and I asked my seniors to forgive me. ”

Old Man Pu nodded, didn't say anything more, but took another sip of wine, and then said lightly: "Have you cultivated the water repellent technique?"

Shen Shi nodded subconsciously, then frowned, looked at the white-bearded old man beside him, and said in amazement: "Senior, how do you know that I have comprehended the water repellent technique?"

Old man Pu smiled slightly, and before he could speak, suddenly a figure walked in at the gate of the Five Elements Hall in front of him, with a graceful figure and a beautiful appearance, it was Xu Yanzhi. She had only taken two steps when she saw an old man and a young man sitting on the ground very unfiguratively on the pillar, her eyes widened for a while, and she hurriedly walked over and said:

"Master, why are you still here?" she turned her head to look at Shen Shi again, with a look of surprise on her face, and said, "Senior Brother Shen, it's only been a day and a night, how did you come out?" I know that the cultivation of magic is difficult, and it is indeed a bit too much for you to realize in just two days, but after all, this is also a rare opportunity, and you must not give it up at will." ”

Shen Shi was stunned by Xu Yanzhi's head, his face suddenly felt embarrassed, and he stood up and didn't know what to say for a while, but then his heart suddenly moved, but he turned his head to look at the white-bearded old man, and said in amazement: "What, senior, you are Senior Sister Xu's master?"

Old man Pu smiled, patted his ass and stood up, and Xu Yanzhi next to him said: "Why, don't you know that you have been sitting with him for so long?" Of course, he is my master, and he is also the current ruling elder of the Shutang, and a few days ago, he was even Elder Pu Siyi Pu, who entered our Lingxiao Sect's Five Elders Council. ”

Old man Pu glared at her, swept a slap on the back of Xu Yanzhi's head, and scolded with a smile: "Master is master, what do you mean by talking about this big bunch of chattering titles later, are you touting the old man or boasting about yourself?"

Xu Yanzhi staggered, his cheeks were slightly red, he looked a little annoyed, and said, "Hey, don't hit me on the head." ”

Old man Pu chuckled, ignored her, and turned his head to look at Shen Shi, Shen Shi was in awe at the moment, no matter how deserted the Shutang looked, it was still one of the seven halls of the Ling Xiao Sect, and the elder in charge of the hall was at least a great real person in the Yuan Dan Realm, not to mention the meaning of Xu Yanzhi's words just now, this senior had even become one of the five elders with the highest status and power in the Ling Xiao Sect recently.

Such a person, is looking at the entire Hongmeng cultivation realm, and is also the top great monk Dazhen, it is enough to make a small person like Shen Shi look up to the mountain, for a while, Shen Shi even had some faint fear and respect in his heart, took a step back, buried his head and bowed, and said respectfully: "Senior, oh no, it's Elder Pu, disciple Shen Shi, I didn't know Mount Tai before, and I ask my seniors to forgive me for my disrespect." ”

Old man Pu waved his hand and said, "It's just these red tape, the old man doesn't like it." I was interrupted by this girl just now, and I was about to ask you, since you came out of the quiet room, have you already practiced the water repellent technique?"

Shen Shi's heart jumped, and then he remembered that the strange technique of the water repellent technique was exactly what this Elder Pu in front of him asked Senior Sister Xu to give him, could it be that there was something inside to it? He hadn't figured out how to answer here, but Xu Yanzhi, who was standing on the side, screamed in amazement, looked at Shen Shi, a look of disbelief flashed across his face, and said, "What, did it take you only one day and one night to realize that spell?"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, but nodded slowly.

Xu Yanzhi's eyes widened, looking incredible, but Old Man Pu's expression was much calmer, he glanced at his female disciple, and said lightly: "What's so strange about this, when the old man practiced this technique, it only took him half a day, hmm...... It took me about nine hours to learn. ”

Xu Yanzhi let out an "ah", covered his mouth with his hand, and was speechless for a long time, and Shen Shi was also shocked, and when he looked at this Elder Pu again, his eyes were already full of admiration and admiration. He understands his own affairs, he can be much stronger than ordinary people in the Five Elements Technique, in addition to his usual interest in magic, the two mysterious Yin Yang Spells are the fundamental key.

But the Yin-Yang Mantra is obviously a private secret object, and it is almost impossible for Elder Pu to have these incantations, that is to say, if Elder Pu did not lie when he said casually just now, then this Elder in charge of the current Sect of Magic, his talent in the Five Elements Spell is really a top character, and it can only be described by the words "amazing" and even genius.

And Shen Shi couldn't imagine that Elder Pu had a reason to lie and brag about such a small person as himself.

Old Man Pu turned his head, glanced Shen Shi up and down, and then said, "Since the cultivation has been completed, you can cast a spell here and show it to me once." ”

Shen Shi was taken aback, but after looking up at Old Man Pu, he saw that his face was calm, and his eyes were blazing, looking at him. Shen Shi's mind turned, and then he nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Then he took two steps back, his eyes were slightly closed, his mind was calm, and the trick of the water rejection technique appeared in his mind, and a spiritual power slowly rose in the dantian under his abdomen.

In the Five Elements Hall, there was no sound or wind, but for some reason, Shen Shi's cuffs and placket suddenly swayed slightly.

Old man Pu raised his eyebrows, then nodded slowly, and said "Hmm", which seemed to be a commendation, but Xu Yanzhi, who was standing next to him, didn't see anything for a long time, and said in amazement: "Master, what are you doing, he obviously didn't do anything?"

Old man Pu snorted and said, "You are still not convinced, that technique is different, it is to form an invisible barrier with spiritual power around the body, silent and colorless, your vision is too bad, naturally you can't see it." ”

Xu Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said angrily: "Damn, Master, since you have this kind of spell, why don't you teach me?"

Old man Pu looked at her expressionlessly and said, "Do you really want to know?"

Xu Yanzhi looked at him for a moment, and suddenly showed a little weakness, laughed dryly, and said with a smile: "Forget it, Master, don't talk about it." ”

Old man Pu snorted angrily, beckoned to Shen Shi, and said, "It's okay, you can come here." ”

Shen Shi exhaled lightly, slowly dissipating his spiritual power, this water repellent spell was strange, plus he had just learned it, he was indeed a little jerky when he used it, far from being handy.

Old man Pu also looked very patient, and stood until Shen Shi finished collecting the method and walked over, and then said lightly: "This technique is a little different from the ordinary Five Elements Technique, but in terms of difficulty, it is probably between the second-order and third-order spells, and you can learn it in one day and one night, this talent is not bad." ”

Xu Yanzhi pursed his lips on the side and said in a low voice: "It's not bad......

Old man Pu glared at her, Xu Yanzhi stuck out his tongue and didn't dare to say more, Shen Shi glanced at her with a little gratitude, so far he certainly understood that Xu Yanzhi had been secretly taking care of himself earlier, and he still had to receive this favor.

As if sensing his gaze, Xu Yanzhi also looked at him, and then smiled slightly, smiling like a flower.

Old Man Pu pondered for a moment, then looked at Shen Shi and said, "Do you know why I want you to come to comprehend this technique?"

Shen Shi felt this Elder Pu's gaze, and for some reason his heartbeat suddenly increased, and his heart flashed like lightning over the causes and consequences of the past two days, and a thought that made him a little unbelievable rose irrepressibly from the bottom of his heart, and that thought was so exciting, that it even made his body suddenly feel a little trembling and pinprick.

He lowered his head, desperately suppressing the excitement in his heart that seemed to make people breathless, and barely kept his calm, but the slightly heavy breathing still made him reveal a little bit of his heart. It was a kind of luck that he had never imagined, and never hoped for, and even his voice sounded a little hoarse at the moment:

"Please...... Elder Pu is invited to teach. ”
