Chapter Forty-Eight: Meeting is Fate
Miao Ji left after giving the order, while Zuo Qingwen and Deng Xinhong all said hello to Zong Xiu before leaving. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info It was nearly midnight when Miao Ji left, and although she finally waited for Miao Ji to leave, Hanjiang Diaosu was not a cultivator after all, and she was full of energy from the beginning, but now she was drowsy, and after a short time, she lay on the stone steps and snored loudly.
Zong Xiu shifted his position slightly, so as to stay away from the old man who was asleep and noisy, and then began to concentrate on the spirit pattern again. But after a long silence, I heard a commotion on the side, and when I was trying to see what was going on, I smelled a faint fragrance.
Zong Xiu raised his eyes and saw a woman standing in front, with willow eyebrows like clouds, eyes like autumn water, white skin like clotted fat, a slender posture, and a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Zong Xiu was thinking about whether he was a customer again, and suddenly felt that this dress had a sense of familiarity, and when he saw the group of people who followed behind the woman like a guard, he suddenly realized that the person in front of him was actually Yun Shuying, the chief shopkeeper of the Yun family shop in Luoxia Mountain, who had been glimpsed from afar!
Zong Xiu didn't know what to call it, remembering that Yun Shuying was already a master of the Ning Yuan Realm, he hurriedly got up and arched his hand: "I've seen Senior Yun." ā
"This little brother, you don't have to be like this, you can call me the cloud shopkeeper, or call me Yun Shuying. ā
Yun Shuying has always been smiling, the smile is soft but not charming, the tone is gentle, and the tone is soft but not demonic, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.
With such a posture, anyone who meets will inevitably have a good impression, Zong Xiu said in his heart: Maybe this is the business style that the Yun family relies on to prosper.
Seeing Yun Shuying say this, Zong Xiu said again: "In Xia Zong Xiu, I have seen the cloud shopkeeper. ā
Before Yun Shuying could speak, an old man who followed her said, "You drew the fire spirit pattern on this card?"
Seeing Zong Xiu nodded, the old man stroked the white beard under his chin and commented: "The technique is unfamiliar, but the spirit pattern structure is quite ingenious, and it is not bad to have this level at a young age." Now that it is the time of employment, it is barely available as a shop spirit pattern apprentice. ā
Then he asked Zong Xiu, "How many years have you been learning to draw spirit patterns?"
Although Zong Xiu felt that this old man was unceremonious, but seeing that he was still talking eloquently in front of Yun Shuying, his status must not be low. Anyway, he can't afford to offend him now, so he replied honestly: "It's been more than ten days." ā
The old man's expression froze suddenly, and he asked again, "How long?"
"It should be more than ten days. ā
The old man paused for a moment, and then asked, "Then have you been carefully taught by the Spirit Pattern Master?"
Zong Xiu replied: "No. ā
In terms of spirit pattern painting, Zong Xiu has always practiced alone, and if someone teaches him, only Zuo Qingwen barely touches the edge. Zong Xiu didn't know what level Zuo Qingwen was, but seeing Zuo Qingwen often exclaimed, Zong Xiu had surpassed her in the drawing of fire spirit patterns, and her level must be limited.
The old man said curiously: "Then what did you rely on to practice the art of spirit pattern drawing?"
Zong Xiu replied: "I first bought the "First Acquaintance of the Spirit Pattern", and later I got the "Spirit Pattern Hundred Explanations" from the same senior sister, and I carefully studied the techniques in it whenever I had time. ā
The old man was a little unconvinced, and said: "With the superficial method of "Hundred Explanations of Spirit Patterns", I can't teach you this method of drawing spirit patterns. ā
Zong Xiu didn't know why the old man was holding on to this topic, he was a little impatient in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face, and said patiently: "It's indeed the technique in "Spirit Pattern Hundred Solutions", but later I added some of my own ideas to conceive it. ā
The old man didn't ask any more questions this time, but directly picked up the wooden card, brushed his fingers on the six words "Draw Spirit Pattern Magic Weapon", and then his face became extremely exciting, and he muttered in his mouth: "It's really the simplest technique, it's really amazing!"
Looking at the changing expression on the old man's face, Yun Shuying, who had not spoken for a long time, said with a smile: "There is a place that amazes our Spirit Pattern Master, no wonder it is named Zongxiu, it really has the intention of creating Zhong Shenxiu." ā
This time it was Zong Xiu's turn to be surprised, he thought that he was just a shopkeeper of the Yun family, but he didn't expect that this old man was actually a spirit pattern master. Zong Xiu didn't have much concept of the Spirit Pattern Master, but he also knew that as long as he obtained the treatment of the Spirit Pattern Master, he could go straight to the inner door, and the Spirit Pattern Master was obviously above the Spirit Pattern Master.
After all, the old man was well-informed, and he quickly returned to normal after being stunned. In his so many years of spirit pattern painting career, it is not that he has never seen someone more talented than Zong Xiu, but most of those people are young and famous. When you are prepared, you can naturally treat it with a normal heart.
Only this time, in this remote place, a person with no name who was a roadside stall could also show such an outstanding talent for drawing spirit patterns, and the degree of surprise was naturally far greater than that of other young disciples he had ever seen.
The old man sighed and said, "It's a pity that I don't have the energy to accept any more disciples, but it's fate to meet each other, so I'll give you this jade slip." ā
Zong Xiu didn't expect that the old man who seemed to be harsh at the beginning would actually meet and send Yujian after saying a few words, and he immediately thanked him busily.
When Zong Xiu took the jade slip, Yun Shuying quipped: "Master Fan doesn't often give things to people, I haven't given me anything since I've known him for so long, and his disciples are even more miserable, and it's the first time that they can meet like this now." ā
The old man laughed and said: "Miss, don't be joking, with the guidance of the old man, my disciples who are not successful are not happy to go to heaven, how can they be compared to mere jade Jane." ā
The corners of Yun Shuying's mouth were upturned, her teeth were like Haoyue, and she also smiled: "Since it is a mere jade slip, then give me a few too." ā
"No, no, you know my character, the old man easily doesn't give people things, but if you give things to people, you must choose someone who is satisfied. Brother Zong's little brother is poor and white, he will be satisfied with whatever he sends, the young lady's family has a big business, and if you really want to give you something that satisfies you, the old man's old bottom will also be compensated. ā
After saying that, he left with a smile.
Zong Xiu felt that this old man was really direct, but what he said was right, he was indeed poor and white, and he was satisfied with everything.
Yun Shuying saw Master Fan leaving, and was also ready to leave. But before leaving, he turned to Zong Xiu and said, "Are you willing to join the Yun family's shop?"
Zong Xiu didn't know why, and coupled with Miao Ji's relationship, he didn't know whether it was good or bad to enter the Yun family's shop, so he could only say: "I have a sect." ā
Yun Shuying said, "It's okay. ā
Then he took out a white token and said, "You take this token first, and someone will contact you when the time comes, and then explain it to you, and then you will not be too late to think about it." ā
Seeing that Yun Shuying said this, Zong Xiu did not postpone it anymore, took the token, and saw that there was a complicated cloud pattern map painted on it, and the tentacles were warm, presumably the material was extraordinary.
After Yun Shuying gave Zong Xiu the token, he also left, and most of the people around the side suddenly left, but there were still many people who did not move.
After Yun Shuying's figure disappeared, one of them spoke: "This little brother, I will give you a hundred spirit stones, can I exchange it for the jade slip in your hand?"
