CHAPTER XVI

-- For laziness

As for why Shi Xuan didn't control the sword light and fly to Penglai Island? Except for the Vientiane Shadowless Sword, which only had seventeen layers of prohibition, and its use as a flying magic weapon was relatively slow, and Shi Xuan's cultivation during the out-of-body period alone could only control the magic weapon to fly for dozens of miles, while Penglai Island was hundreds of miles away from Mingyue Island, and there were few islands that could stop and rest in the middle -- those islands were occupied by families established by the inner disciples of the Penglai faction, and ordinary outsiders could not go to the island.

Therefore, Shi Xuan booked a room on a large sea ship bound for Penglai Island, and prepared to set off for Penglai Island ten days in advance. Of course, this ship did not sail directly to Penglai Island, but could only go to Yingke Island outside Penglai Island, and at that time, Penglai would send disciples to pick up the monks on the island.

When I came to the port, because Penglai Island was approaching to recruit the puja, the port was now full of monks, waiting for the arrival of the time to get on the ship.

The Yingzhou faction and the Penglai faction have the same time to recruit disciples, and they will not give people the opportunity to participate in this family, and they can also go to the next one. The kind of monk who can't make even the most basic choices is better off not cultivating.

From Mingyue Island to Penglai Island, if there is nothing to do all the way, it will take about two days to arrive, and the sea ships that have fixed the wind formation are roughly at the same speed as those fast ships that Shi Xuan had seen in his previous life.

It's just that Shi Xuan set off ten days ahead of schedule for the sake of safety, so as not to encounter violent storms and rains on the sea road, etc., which delayed the timing. As for those monks who went to the Yingzhou Sect, a few of them teleported to the surrounding islands of the Yingzhou Sect in a teleportation array, and most of them set off more than a month ago, and it took more than a month to get from Mingyue Island to Yingzhou Island!

There are seven or eight conspicuous sea ships parked in the harbor, all of them are huge sea ships with a length of nearly 100 zhang, tall and large, and there is a wind formation fixed on their sails, and a good defensive formation is fixed on the ship.

Shi Xuan took a fancy to this, so he ordered a room on one of the ships, and used up the entire three lower grade spirit stones, you must know that this is only a two-day voyage.

When the hour came, Shi Xuan followed the monks lined up in front of him and walked slowly towards the ship he had ordered, and after a while, he got on the sea ship and reached the deck.

Shi Xuan's room is on the second floor of the shipbuilding, it belongs to the kind that is not good or bad, although there are nearly 100 spirit stones on his body, he can spend a lot of money to live in the rooms of more than ten low-grade spirit stones, which is really boring and eye-catching, but if he goes to the room below the deck, not only the environment is poor, but the safety is not very guaranteed, after all, it is a room for several people.

Therefore, Shi Xuan finally settled on a room that was medium, not good, or bad.

Entering the room, it was smaller than the cave house where Shi Xuan lived before, a bed, a table, and a few stools occupied the entire space, the only advantage was that there was a window, and when you pushed it open, you could smell the slightly salty but refreshing sea breeze.

After finishing the noon lunch class, Shi Xuan heard someone knocking on the door, and then heard someone shouting, "Is there anyone in the room?"

Although the ship was heavily guarded, Shi Xuan did not dare to be careless, and secretly prepared the golden dragon armor spell and hid the Vientiane Shadowless Sword in his sleeve before he walked over and opened the door.

Outside the door was a young man with a handsome appearance, a kind smile, quite sunny, he saw Shi Xuan open the door, and hurriedly bowed his hand: "In Xia Zhang Haiping, from Hailong Island, this time I went to Penglai Island to participate in the Dharma meeting to recruit disciples, and I lived next door, thinking that I might be a senior brother with a Taoist friend, so I took the liberty to come and say hello." Daoyou is going to Penglai Island, right?"

Shi Xuan also replied with a smile: "In Xia Shixuan, Zhang Daoyou is polite, just to go to Penglai Island, if he can become a senior brother in the future, please take care of one or two." Of course, Shi Xuan's inner vigilance was not relaxed.

The two of them stood at the door chatting, to be honest, except for the need to be wary of strangers, Zhang Haiping is a person who speaks and does things like a spring breeze, and it can be seen that he is a well-traveled person.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Haiping suddenly proposed: "Brother Shi Xian, why don't we get to know the Taoist friends in a few rooms around here one by one, after all, there are three gangs of heroes, we have no relatives and no reason on Penglai Island, what can we do to fight with the children of those families? Even if we are lucky enough to join the Penglai faction, we will only be bullied in the faction." Now I know a few more Taoist friends, and I can help more when I am in trouble, right?"

Shi Xuan somewhat understood what Zhang Haiping meant, to put it bluntly, he was engaged in a small group. Especially when you first arrive in a strange place and have no relatives and no reason, people's original surname is to survive in a group. And at this time, extending a hand of friendship is the best way to exchange the favor of others.

For making a small group, Shi Xuan is indispensable, it is naturally good to know a few friends, and he is not the kind who is withdrawn and does not like to talk, but looking at Zhang Haiping's mind, I am afraid that he wants to be the leader in the small group.

Seeing that Shi Xuan did not object to his words, Zhang Haiping was very happy, and enthusiastically pulled Shi Xuan to the opposite room, knocked on the door three times, and soon a young man's voice came from inside the door: "Which one?"

Zhang Haiping briefly said his intention, and the young man in the room happily opened the door, he was in his twenties, with good facial features, lively eyebrows and eyes, and greeted Shi Xuan and Zhang Haiping without being restrained at all: "My name is Xie Gang, I am the person near this tide square, I don't know what the two big brothers call me?"

Shi Xuan and Zhang Haiping hurriedly told him their names. After hearing this, Xie Gang said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhang, Brother Shi, I think the two of you should be in the out-of-body period, and I, a little monk in the Qi cultivation period, should I ask you to take more care of it." ”

Zhang Haiping saw that Xie Gang was so good, and he also nodded with a smile: "That's natural." Zhang has a lot of experience in breaking through the qi cultivation period to the out-of-body period, and he will talk to you about it later. ”

Seeing such a good thing, Xie Gang stepped forward more enthusiastically: "I see that Brother Zhang, you are not very old, I don't know what age you broke through?"

These words seemed to tickle Zhang Haiping's itch, and he said to himself: "Zhang was twenty-five years old when he broke through three years ago, and he couldn't compare to those family children. The words were very modest, but the red light on his face had betrayed him.

Xie Gang was just patting his ass casually, but he didn't expect that this Zhang Haiping would really break through at such a young age, and now his face showed genuine reverence: "If Brother Zhang has the cultivation of the family, maybe he will break through at the age of twenty." ”

After speaking, he bowed deeply: "The little brother is already twenty-two years old, and he is still a little far away from the out-of-body period, please ask Brother Zhang to give more guidance in the future,"

The two of them are like mountains and rivers, bosom friends meet each other, they talk very happily, for this kind of monk who is still a stranger, Shi Xuan has always listened more and talked less, naturally just standing next to him, occasionally agreeing a few words.

However, Zhang Haiping did not forget his purpose, and quickly encouraged Xie Gang, and the three of them walked to the other side of Shi Xuan's room together and knocked lightly on the door.

A slight voice came from inside the door: "Who?

Zhang Haiping also told his intentions, and the female surname in the room was silent for a long time before she squeaked the door open. This woman may not be yet twenty years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and her youth is pressing, and her head is buried very low at this time, as if she is counting the flowers in her shoes.

In the cultivation realm, from the beginning of the qi cultivation period, you can slightly adjust your appearance, and in the out-of-body period, the soul change can bring about the best changes, and the demon beast can turn some parts of the body into a human body at this stage. When it comes to the qi induction period, the aura of heaven and earth is channeled, and the flesh body is refined, which can also improve the appearance, and the demon beast can basically turn into a human form, but there are still some parts where the traces of the demon beast can be seen. And if the demon beast wants to completely change into a human form, it can only reach the Jindan period.

Therefore, in the cultivation realm, the appearance of monks is generally not bad, especially women, of course, there are many monks with poor appearance or eccentricity for special exercises and psychological reasons.

Seeing that the female monk didn't speak, Shi Xuan and the others introduced themselves one by one, and when they were all finished, the female monk bowed her hand with a red face: "Few, few, few, Daoist, okay." I, my name is Zhou Dielan. "If you stammer, could it be a stutter?

However, Shi Xuan quickly overturned this conclusion, and as several people became familiar with each other, this Zhou Dielan spoke a lot more fluently, it seemed that she was too shy just now.

According to herself, she is from Shake Light Island, eighteen years old, and is in the period of qi recuperation. She came with a good sister who lived on the third floor, with several relatives of her family.

"Let's go to dinner together, on the first floor of the ship. Seeing that the time was just right, Zhang Haiping immediately warmly invited a few people to go with him.

"That's what the little brother has in mind. Xie Gang immediately agreed.

Shi Xuan was also going to go to dinner, but when he saw Zhang Haiping's invitation, he agreed.

Zhou Dielan seemed to want to refuse, but she couldn't say anything to refuse, her face turned red, and she finally nodded and agreed.

After closing the door, the four of them chatted and walked to the lower floor, Xie Gang was a very lively person, and he was the one who talked the most along the way, and Zhou Dielan was really shy, just listened silently on the side, and occasionally answered in a mosquito-like voice. Zhang Haiping is a person who is accustomed to giving orders, and in a short period of time, the other two people listened to him.

The four of them found a quieter location, ordered good food, and talked about the recruitment of the puja.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Shi, I heard that this time it was the cold-faced Lei Jun who presided over the Fa, hehe, now we have a chance. Xie Gang didn't know at all that he was two years older than Shi Xuan.

Shi Xuan got the news from Ming Qingyue half a year ago, and he didn't show off at this time, and said lightly: "Shi also knows about it. ”

Xie Gang continued to talk about the news he had gotten: "I heard that the cold face Lei Jun and the big families in the Penglai faction are very discordant, and they are afraid that they will be deflated this time." ”
