Chapter 429: Important Things

There are one and two, and the atmosphere that has been quiet in the Ling Xiao Sect for many years has disappeared since this time. In order to take charge of the position in the future, all forces and talents are fighting hard, and for a while, there was a lot of noise in the huge Lingxiao Sect. This is actually a very strange thing, because although the current Huaiyuan Zhenren cannot be said to be still in his prime, it is obviously a long time before the time to abdicate and make way for Xian, but for some reason, the rising stars in the Lingxiao Sect and the latent forces behind each of them have a sense of urgency, as if it will not be long before Huaiyuan Zhenren may really abdicate.

The smell of this is of course very subtle and dangerous, and once it has begun, it is almost impossible to hide it completely, in a word, there is no turning back. The atmosphere in the Lingxiao Sect began to tense rapidly, and everyone was paying attention to the high-ranking and newly acquired sage master, but for some reason, Huaiyuan Zhenren seemed to be working against everyone, and after that quarrel with Du Tiejian in the Yunxiao Palace, he lived in seclusion.

The people in the sect can't see this real person in charge of the sect when they can't wait to see it, even if it is a respected sect elder like Sun Mingyang, Yunni, and Old Man Pu, they are often rejected by Huaiyuan Zhenren in the name of retreat. Huaiyuan Zhenren's behavior has made all kinds of rumors rampant, some people are worried, some people are suspicious, and some people are overjoyed.

Zhong Qingzhu was not the only one who came to find Shen Shi, with the current situation in the Lingxiao Sect, it was almost impossible for any side to be in an absolutely advantageous position, so it became the first choice of all parties to win over any possible help. Among all the choices, the more than twenty Yuan Dan Realm elders in the Ling Xiao Sect were undoubtedly the most important objects of competition, followed by the most outstanding and powerful among the young disciples of the sect.

And after the battle of the demon world, Shen Shi also faintly entered this ranks, plus everyone knew that the old man of Shutang Pu had a special preference for Shen Shi, as long as he won Shen Shi, it was even possible to pull the entire Shutang directly over. So overnight, Shen Shi suddenly discovered that he had become a hot bait in the sect.

After Zhong Qingzhu, Sun You and Gan Ze both came to him to chat and talk about their life ideals, Shen Shi knew their intentions, but he didn't know why, he always seemed to have some tiredness in his heart, and he couldn't be interested in these things.

It's just burnout, not the kind of so-called gentleman-style cleanliness, he had helped Sun You once before, but at this time, he found that he didn't seem to want to get involved at all. This kind of emotion made Shen Shi a little dazed, he always felt that he didn't even know what he wanted, he went to ask Master Pu Old Man, but Old Man Pu was so immortal, he actually learned from his senior brother Huaiyuan to go to retreat like a real person at this stall, even if Shen Shi came with a fine wine, he didn't mean to get out.

Shen Shi left the Five Elements Hall of the Shutang with some reluctance, still carrying Old Man Pu's favorite Huadiao wine in his hand, but when he walked to the viewing platform, he saw a man and a woman walking in front of him side by side, with a relaxed and leisurely expression, which seemed to be incompatible with the atmosphere in this sect.

It was Sun Heng and He Xiaomei.

They also saw Shen Shi at the same time, then stopped with a smile and greeted him.

Shen Shi smiled, suddenly lifted the wine jar in his hand, and said to them, "Do you want to drink?"

The warm sunlight sprinkled on the grassy slopes, the fresh sea breeze blowing from afar, sitting on the lawn in front of the endless blue sea, the sky is high and the sea is wide.

Shen Shi, Sun Heng, and He Xiaomei sat down on this lawn, Shen Shi just wanted to open the Huadiao wine jar, but He Xiaomei smiled and said, "Don't drink this, try the bar in my hometown." ”

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and agreed. The kind of wine He Xiaomei said was Sangluo wine, and after taking a sip of the fine wine He Xiaomei took out, Shen Shi frowned slightly, for him, he was still a little unaccustomed to this slightly sour taste.

Looking at his appearance, Sun Heng and He Xiaomei both laughed, and Shen Shi immediately laughed, and after a while, Shen Shi looked at Sun Heng and said, "Senior Brother Sun, I have something I want to ask." ”

Sun Heng hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bear it, you can say it." ”

Shen Shi looked at him and said, "Recently, you must know the situation of the sect, but I think you seem to have completely let go now?"

Sun Heng nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Shen Shi said: "Don't you have any sense of loss at all?"

Sun Heng thought for a while and said, "If it was before, of course there would be loss, but these days, I have figured it out, these things are not as important as we think." Of course, I'm not a sage myself, but after getting to know Xiaomei, I feel that there are actually more important things in this world than these fame, fortune and power. ”

He Xiaomei laughed on the side, and it seemed that the whole person was glowing slightly, looking so gentle and beautiful.

Shen Shi looked at them, as if his mood was also better, and he also laughed, and said, "Then don't drink this mulberry wine anymore." ”

Sun Hengqi said: "Why is this?"

Shen Shi stood up and said, "When the mulberry falls, at the moment of parting, you are going to be together for a long time, so drink some other wine." ”

Sun Heng looked at He Xiaomei and said, "Is there such a statement?"

He Xiaomei also frowned, and said, "I haven't heard of it before, but now that I hear the stone say this, it makes some sense, so it's good not to drink it in the future." ”

Shen Shi laughed, didn't say much, bowed to the two of them, and left.

Looking at the back of Shen Shi leaving, Sun Heng and He Xiaomei stood on the lawn in the sun, and after a while, Sun Heng suddenly said, "Do you remember, this is the place where you comforted me at the beginning?"

He Xiaomei smiled, looked at Sun Heng, and said, "What the stone said just now, don't you really regret it?"

Sun Heng shook his head and said, "I don't regret it, what I said just now was true." ”

With a word, he stretched out his arms and hugged He Xiaomei into his arms, and under the sun, their figures stood quietly among the beautiful mountains and rivers, standing still for a long time.

Early the next morning, Shen Shi packed his bags, took the white-haired fox, and went to the Five Elements Hall to say to his senior sister Xu Yanzhi, asking her to wait for the master to leave the customs and tell her to go down the mountain, so she didn't alarm anyone, and quietly left Jinhong Mountain.

All the way forward, entering the cloud city into the teleportation array, the wind and dust, once again came to Tianhong City.

In this world, in fact, there are really more important things than fame, fortune and power, Shen Shi didn't understand it before, but now he feels that there should be some things that have not been done.

His gaze crossed the high Great Wall, and behind it was the 10,000-year-old famous capital giant city, and there was also the Qinglong Mountain Range that hid countless secrets.

What needs to be done, just do it.
