Chapter 135: Understanding
Xu Yanzhi walked all the way back to the main hall of the Five Elements Palace, and saw that Shen Shiwuzi was still standing there waiting alone, with a smile on his lips, he quickened his pace and walked over.
Hearing the sound of footsteps from behind, Shen Shi looked back, finally breathed a sigh of relief, greeted him, and said, "Senior Sister Xu." ”
Xu Yanzhi nodded at him, but his face was the first to change, put away his smile, and said, "Senior Brother Shen, I may have bad news to tell you here." ”
Shen Shi was stunned and said, "What?"
Xu Yanzhi sighed and said, "It's not a coincidence, just when I just went in to get that third-order spell, my master, that is, Elder Pu Siyipu, who was in charge of the magic hall, came back and stopped me to ask, but it turned out that he had accidentally written the wrong price code for a while, and it couldn't be counted." ”
"Uh......" Shen Shi was silent, his face changed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
Xu Yanzhi looked at his helpless and disappointed expression, and also snickered in his heart, and then said lightly: "Senior Brother Shen, this matter is indeed my dishonesty to you, if you have any complaints and dissatisfaction, even if you blame me, I have nothing to say." ”
Shen Shi hurriedly shook his head, forced a smile, and said: "Senior sister said that you are laughing, how dare Shen Shi blame you, in fact, this matter can be regarded as a little greedy by me, but senior sister, you are kind-hearted, and Shen Shi still knows this." ”
Xu Yanzhi nodded, then suddenly smiled slightly, and said to Shen Shi: "However, after all, this matter was placed over there before, and since you are here, it is impossible for our Shutang not to give you an explanation." Just now, I also had a big quarrel with my master on the basis of reason, and I finally helped you fight for a chance. ”
Shen Shi was also dumbfounded when he listened, and couldn't help but glance at this Senior Sister Xu a few more times, and couldn't help but be in awe for a while, he couldn't imagine that for a trivial matter, Senior Sister Xu Yanzhi was able to speak up to the point of arguing with the elders of the sect. And when he heard the last sentence, Shen Shi was even more stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Senior sister, what chance?"
Xu Yanzhi chuckled, took out a piece of yellow paper from his cuffs, and said, "Under this girl's righteous words, my master is also poor in words, so he finally said: If you want a hundred spirit crystals to buy a third-order spell directly, it is impossible, just give him this to see his luck." ”
As she spoke, she reached out and handed the yellow paper to Shen Shi, Shen Shi took it blankly, glanced at it, and said, "Senior Sister Xu, what is this?"
Xu Yanzhi shook his head and said, "I haven't read the text in it, but I heard from the master that this is also a kind of third-order magic cultivation method, right now, he will lend you for free to watch and cultivate, but there are two conditions: first, you must not be brought out of the Five Elements Palace, and second, you will only be given two days, and it depends on your own talent and chance to be able to cultivate the spell." ”
"Two days?" Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, his brows suddenly furrowed, he was not an ignorant layman in the Five Elements Technique, on the contrary, he had a lot of knowledge about the Five Elements Technique, and it was precisely because of this that he also knew that the cultivation of the Five Elements Technique was difficult, and the cultivation difficulty of the Technique without climbing the stairs was much more difficult. If he remembered correctly, Shen Shi clearly remembered that even if it was any third-order spell, it usually took half a month to a month for ordinary monks to barely master it, and even if he had a yin and yang spell to help him secretly, the mysterious spiritual power of the eyebrows and heart points was different, but according to his previous experience, Shen Shi was not at all sure that he would be able to learn a third-order spell in just two days.
In addition, he actually has another scruple that he can't talk to anyone, that is, in the Hu Zong'an Mountain Inn in Liuyun City, there is also a Ling Chunni and Xiao Hei who have made an appointment with him and are waiting for him, if this is a cultivation technique, I am afraid that it will be delayed for several days.
He hesitated here for a moment, and his face showed hesitation, which fell in Xu Yanzhi's eyes, which suddenly made her a little anxious. The thing that Old Man Pu gave was not the same as the previous agreement, and even she was a little caught off guard, but no matter how you say it, this is also an extremely rare opportunity. For the sake of her friend Zhong Qingzhu, she really wanted to take Shen Shi with her, but at this moment, he seemed to be a little withdrawn, Xu Yanzhi frowned slightly, took two steps to the side, and said, "Senior Brother Shen, what's wrong with you?"
As she spoke, her body was intentionally or unintentionally blocking in front of Shen Shi, just covering the direction of the secret side door behind her, and at the same time looked at Shen Shi.
Shen Shi saw that Xu Yanzhi seemed to have a deep meaning in his eyes, and the expression on his face was quite subtle, and he was surprised, when suddenly his hand was warm, but it was grasped by a soft hand, and the white and slender finger gently wrote a word quickly in his palm.
"Close!"
Shen Shi's heart moved, and he just wanted to say something, but he saw that Xu Yanzhi had quietly withdrawn his palm, and looked at him with a smile on his face.
Shen Shi lowered his head slightly, pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Since this is the case, it will trouble Senior Sister Xu." ”
Xu Yanzhi smiled slightly and said, "Let's take a good look at it, it won't be a loss to you anyway." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and led Shen Shi all the way to the other side of the hall, where there was a quiet room, the room was not large, and the furnishings were simple, only a bed for resting, and in addition, only a small window on the high wall was open to breathe and ventilate.
Bringing Shen Shi here, Xu Yanzhi hesitated for a moment, as if he finally couldn't help but say again: "Senior Brother Shen, you have to make good use of this hard-won opportunity, don't let down Sister Qingzhu's wishes." ”
"Huh?" Shen Shi was stunned, and just wanted to ask what this matter had to do with Zhong Qingzhu, but Xu Yanzhi had already nodded to him, and then walked out of the quiet room and closed the door.
※※※
Out of the quiet room, Xu Yanzhi looked around, the huge Five Elements Hall was empty, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, thought for a while, then walked outside the hall, when she arrived at the door of the hall, she turned her head and looked around, sure enough, it didn't take long to be on the edge of a railing outside the hall, and saw the familiar and pretty figure standing there.
"Green bamboo. Xu Yanzhi waved her hand and called out to the beautiful woman and walked over.
The woman turned around and looked, sure enough, it was Zhong Qingzhu who also came here at some point, at this moment, she looked a little uneasy on her face, and her heart was heavy, seeing Xu Yanzhi coming over, she hurriedly won over, first glanced at the Five Elements Palace, and then couldn't help but lower her voice, and said in a low voice:
"Sister, he'...... Why didn't he come out, was that done?"
Xu Yanzhi smiled for a while, and gently pulled up Zhong Qingzhu's palm, but found that she had clenched into a fist at some point, and her palm was still a little wet. Xu Yanzhi shook his head and sighed: "Sister, you are such a cold and quiet person on weekdays, how can you be so nervous when you meet Senior Brother Shen." ”
Zhong Qingzhu's cheeks were slightly red, and he seemed to notice that he was a little nervous, so he forced a smile, silently withdrew his palm, and gently wiped it on the placket of his waist. Xu Yanzhi smiled and said, "Okay, I won't tease you, my master has already seen Shen Shi, and it seems to be okay, at least he doesn't mean to refuse immediately." ”
Zhong Qingzhu's face suddenly flashed with a hint of joy, in a famous sect like Lingxiao Sect, whether there is an elder above the disciples of the sect as a master, it is definitely a world of difference.
Xu Yanzhi looked at her smile, smiled, and said, "But don't be too happy, my master didn't know why, but he temporarily set up another problem for him." Saying that, Xu Yanzhi told Zhong Qingzhu about the cultivation of the magic in the past two days, and Zhong Qingzhu suddenly changed color after hearing it, his brows furrowed slightly, and said:
"This ...... It's too hard, isn't it?"
Xu Yanzhi shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is set by my master, and I have also helped to speak, but he must be like this for the old man, and I can't help it." Speaking of this, she paused for a moment and said, "But you don't have to worry too much, after all, this is my master's own proposal to find Senior Brother Shen Shi, and for the first time in so many years, he has shown interest in a disciple in the sect, so Senior Brother Shen Shi does have a high chance of being accepted by my master." ”
Zhong Qingzhu was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly, and said: "I hope so, now I can only hope that the stone can be ...... by himself."
Speaking of the back, her voice gradually lowered, but there was a hint of expectation on her face, obviously sincerely expecting Shen Shi to really enter Elder Pu's door, Xu Yanzhi shook her head when she looked at it on the side, couldn't help but gently patted her delicate cheek, and said with a smile: "Hey, wake up sister, I really can't see what's so good about that stupid stone, it can actually fascinate my good sister to such a point." ”
Zhong Qingzhu snorted with a smile and said, "How can there be such a thing." Just after speaking, he seemed to think of something again, and said, "Sister, I haven't had much contact with Elder Pu before, I only know that he seems to have a strange temperament, and his Taoism is very high, and he has recently succeeded Elder Mu to become the five elders of the sect, but I don't know ...... Is he usually very strict, and how does he treat his disciples?"
Xu Yanzhi smiled: "He hasn't started yet, are you worried that he will be bullied in the future?" After speaking, she shook her head and said with a smile, "Don't worry, my master, although he looks withdrawn and weird on weekdays, he is actually very good, and he is also very good to me, although he will say a few useless words about me from time to time on weekdays, and I don't practice enough, it's also a joke, if someone really wants to bully me, he is the first old man not to agree." Just now, he also said that if Senior Brother Ruan bullied me, he would help me get angry and interrupt ......"
Speaking of this, Xu Yanzhi suddenly stopped talking, Zhong Qingzhu was a little puzzled, and asked, "What did you say you interrupted?"
Xu Yanzhi thought to herself that although the master made fun of herself, as a disciple, she still had to take care of his old man's face, and she still didn't say anything to Qingzhu about the confused few legs, and when she met Senior Brother Ruan, she could mention it to him, and see if he dared to bully me in the future?
Thinking of this, there was a slight sweetness in his heart for no reason, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter, so he smiled at Zhong Qingzhu and said: "It's nothing, it's just that if he bullied me, he broke his legs." You see, my master is too protective of his own disciples, if Senior Brother Shen Shi can enter his Dharma eyes and be included in the door, it will definitely be his creation. ”
"Uh-huh. Zhong Qingzhu nodded heavily, his eyes turned to the Five Elements Hall in the distance, and his face showed a bit of expectation.
※※※
And in the secret room in the Five Elements Palace, Old Man Pu didn't know when he had a wine gourd in his hand, and after pulling the stopper, the wine was suddenly overflowing, and it smelled like a pot of adult wine. He threw his head back and took a big sip, then a look of satisfaction on his face, and then glanced at the table beside him.
In the ancient bronze mirror on the table, there was a change of scene at this moment, reflecting the movement in the quiet room, and Shen Shi's every move was in it.
He watched Shen Shi walk back and forth in the quiet room for a while, and then walked back to the bed with a calm face to meditate, spread out the yellow paper in front of him, and watched intently.
After another moment, the expression on Shen Shi's face suddenly looked a little strange, as if he was a little surprised, and seemed a little puzzled, but after thinking about it for about half an hour, he still took a deep breath, and then slowly closed his eyes, and at the same time put his hands on his knees.
Old man Pu raised his eyebrows, seemed to be a little surprised, and said, "Hmm, your understanding is good, did you start trying it so soon?"
