Chapter 91: The Old Man
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it was already winter. Ye Sheng also lived in this teahouse for three months.
The winter in Tianshui City is no different from autumn, there is no goose feather and heavy snow, and during the day, the desert is still rising hot air approaching the whole city, and people are still wearing summer clothes. Only at night, every household will burn a fire to keep warm, and the temperature will drop to the extent that it can freeze, and as far as the eye can see, the entire Tianshui City will be shrouded in darkness and cold, and there is no life.
Ye Sheng opened his eyes from meditation, walked out of the room, and went to the bottom of the teahouse to see what the old shopkeeper was doing. In the past three months, his injuries have all healed, in fact, two months ago, he was able to recover to his peak, after all, although the healing exercises are not effective now, they still play a great role.
The more Ye Sheng worked on this healing exercise, the more he felt that something was missing, according to Ye Sheng's own inference, this should be due to the incomplete exercise.
"It's just a broken nameless exercise, why did this magic pot give me this thing? I once asked the burning elder, and he didn't know anything about it......"
Ye Sheng thought about it and had already walked downstairs.
The old shopkeeper was burning the fire vigorously in front of the stove, staring at a pile of burning wood in a daze.
"Senior ......" Ye Sheng squatted down and added a few sticks of firewood.
At this moment, the old shopkeeper looked almost no different from an ordinary mortal, wearing a thick cotton jacket to wrap the whole person, breathing evenly and peacefully, looking more like an old man in the twilight of his life, rather than the predecessor in Ye Sheng's mouth.
"It's cold, so add extra clothes. The old shopkeeper said slowly, his voice sounding tiredness that was difficult to hide.
Ye Sheng smiled, didn't say much, nodded, and sat down with the old shopkeeper.
"Senior......" Ye Sheng asked, "I wonder if the seniors have heard of medicinal materials that can restore soul power?"
When the old shopkeeper heard Ye Sheng's words, his eyes turned from the raging flames in the furnace and stared at Ye Sheng twice.
Immediately, he shook his head and said, "What are you asking about this, there is no problem with your spiritual sense." ”
Ye Sheng's heart moved, but he didn't show the slightest look.
"The old shopkeeper can see through my spiritual sense at a glance, but there is nothing unusual...... Presumably, the existence of the magic pot and the burning old man was not found......"
Immediately, he clenched his fists and said: "Please also inform the seniors, the juniors ...... I had a friend who needed these medicines. ”
"There are too many secrets of these drugs, they are difficult to find in the world, and not many people know about them......"
The old shopkeeper shook his head: "What I know, that Oriental Penglai, there seems to be a kind of elixir, which has a nourishing effect on the soul, with your strength, it is difficult to get access to it now......"
Ye Sheng was silent.
What he thought was naturally that he wanted to revive the burning old man as soon as possible. After all, the old man's sleep was caused by his own insistence, and on the other hand, the old man was nothing more than a teacher of Ye Sheng! He also saved Ye Sheng many times at a critical juncture.
"Either way, you have to find this drug, or a substitute for it......"
Ye Sheng stared at the churning stove in front of him and was silent.
"It's been three months here, and it's taken two months to heal, but I've been with the old shopkeeper for a month, but now it's time to leave......"
Ye Sheng thought about it, and faintly made a decision in his heart.
The next morning, Ye Sheng tidied up a little, and then walked out of the teahouse, his outfit turned into a loose black robe, took out a black cloak and put it on his head, and walked towards the Shen family's chamber of commerce without hurry.
This wide black robe not only concealed Ye Sheng's appearance, but even the young man's somewhat thin body was covered up, and his voice was slightly adjusted, if he didn't understand, listening to Ye Sheng's words, most of them would think that he was a person over half a hundred years old, and his figure was also slightly bloated.
Cover up your figure, Ye Sheng will come out so swaggeringly.
He went to the Shen family's chamber of commerce this time, the main thing was to inquire about the news about the flying sword magic weapon, which was also what he urgently needed at present, and secondly, he also wanted to get the news about the resumption of the burning of the old yuanying, so it became necessary to go to the Shen family's chamber of commerce.
Ye Sheng walked slowly towards the place of the Shen Family Chamber of Commerce, and along the way, he also paid attention to other shops, all of which were ordinary grocery stores and pawnshops, and there was nothing to stop, so he walked all the way to the front of the Chamber of Commerce.
"There are more guards...... Ye Sheng saw the scene in front of him, his pupils shrank a few times, but there was no pause, and he walked straight up.
"Wait!" Ye Sheng had just walked up the steps, and he was immediately held up by the guards with guns.
"Take off your cloak. The guard's tone was cold, and the others were also unkind.
Ye Sheng remained silent and snorted coldly: "Now the Shen family in Tianshui City has reached this point!"
This snort, the guard only felt that his spirit was in a trance, and he came back to his senses after a while, but he didn't flinch at all, and shouted urgently: "It's him, take it for me!"
As he spoke, he quickly retreated, but a group of assassins dressed in black jumped out of the chamber of commerce building, rushing towards Ye Sheng in unison!
Ye Sheng snorted coldly in his heart, he glanced at it, only two of them were the strength of the third layer of Qi cultivation, and the others were not considered cultivators, and with a slight movement of his hand at the moment, he was going to make a move!
"Wait!"
At this moment, a voice came.
Ye Sheng and the group of people who rushed over all looked at each other in unison.
It's the old man who used to trade with Ye Sheng!
Ye Sheng's eyes stared at him, glowing coldly, and his hand quietly sealed under the black robe, if this old man said something unfavorable to him, he could do it in an instant!
"This fellow Daoist ......" The old man smiled, but arched his hand towards Ye Sheng, and said: "I didn't know that Friend would come today, there have been some changes in the Shen family recently, so there is only this battle, please forgive me......
The old man glanced meaningfully, but the look was not smiling.
"He recognized me!" Ye Sheng's heart jumped, but he didn't cover it up well enough, otherwise the guard might not easily say that he wanted to arrest him.
But even so, Ye Sheng's mood still didn't change at all. He glanced at the old man coldly in the cloak, then hugged his fists and said, "Since this is the case, then, I will say goodbye!"
As he spoke, he turned to leave.
"Fellow Daoists, slow ......," the old man suddenly stopped with a smile.
"Wait, don't you apologize to Daoyou?" he said to the group of masked assassins who flashed out of nowhere.
"Elder, this ......" One of the masked men took off his mask, looked embarrassed, and clenched his fist at the old man.
When Ye Sheng saw this person, his expression was grim!
This person saved his Shen Ming when he was in the convoy!
"The strength of the third layer of Qi cultivation ......" Ye Sheng's heart moved slightly, no wonder he hadn't seen him when he was standing at Shen Li in the Shen family before, if this strength appeared, he would definitely be able to kill him with one blow.
"With this person's temperament, I am afraid that if I want to make baht, I will be more ......"
Ye Sheng thought in his heart, but the old man shouted at Shen Ming: "Shen Ming, are you confused? This is the old man's Taoist friend who has had several encounters before, do you think that if there is a monk in Water City this day, it must be that kid?"
"Elder, Shen Ming didn't mean that......" A trace of coldness and unwillingness flashed in Shen Ming's eyes, Ye Sheng saw it clearly in his eyes, and naturally he couldn't hide it from the old man.
"I know you're in your heart...... But the head of the family is still uncertain about life and death, and I have been in your Shen family for more than 30 years, without merit, and with hard work, I naturally will not do anything unfavorable to your Shen family...... If you don't believe me, you can come forward and check on this Taoist friend, but I and other cultivators are moody, with your strength, if he waves his hand and kills you, I won't save you. ”
The old man's words fell on Shen Ming's ears, causing his face to change for a while. After a long time, he reluctantly clenched his fists and said, "Where is the elder, Shen Ming will lead people to retreat......
As he spoke, he didn't look back, and took a group of people with him. "Let's go!" and a few jumps disappeared into the place.
Ye Sheng looked at the old man from a distance through the cloak, and the meaning between them was inexplicable.
The corners of Ye Sheng's mouth hooked up with an imperceptible smile.
"Fellow Daoist......" The old man also smiled, hugged his fists and said, "Please come in and talk." ”
"It's nature. Ye Sheng replied, flashing into the Shen Family Chamber of Commerce in an instant.
The two of them didn't say anything all the way, and went directly to the fifth floor, and the old man waved his hand to let all the maids leave, and then slowly spoke.
"Fellow Daoist, this time...... You can take off your cloak, right?" the old man stared at Ye Sheng and said.
Ye Sheng smiled lightly.
"What if I say no?" he said, taking a step forward, his momentum faintly emanating.
"I don't think Daoyou's choice is very wise, the old man doesn't like to talk to people who hide their heads and tails, if I report to my family, Ye Daoyou is here, what kind of scene will it be?"
Ye Sheng heard this, and the breath of his whole body soared to the extreme! Pressing the old man to sit on the high chair behind him all of a sudden, unable to move.
"You say...... What?" Ye Sheng smiled coldly and asked.
The old man did not reply, although cold sweat had broken out on his forehead, but he still did not give in.
The time of a stick of incense is a little frighteningly quiet.
Ye Sheng stared at the old man on the seat, and suddenly his whole body was relieved, but he sighed.
"That's it, since you recognize me, why do you want me to take off the cloak?" Ye Sheng said, slowly taking off the cloak.
Seeing this scene, the old man also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ye Daoyou is not strange...... Old man, just thinking about it, confirm it......"
"That being the case. Ye Sheng moved, put on his cloak again, and sat down on the high chair opposite the old man, and asked with a smile:
"What do you mean by inviting me to come this time?"
