Chapter 144: Friends

The atmosphere outside the Five Elements Hall instantly became tense, looking at the confrontation between the two Yuan Dan Realm great people in front of him, there seemed to be a sign of a direct move without saying a word, Xu Yanzhi and Shen Shi who were standing next to him were a little at a loss, and Elder Yunni, who was the only one present who could do the two of them, just looked at each other coldly at the moment, and did not mean to speak at all, and even a trace of impatience quietly passed in the depths of his eyes.

At this moment of tension, a hearty man's voice suddenly came from the front, saying: "The two uncles are temporarily angry, don't do anything, otherwise let others see it, won't you still lose the face of the two?"

Everyone turned their eyes and saw a man striding over, smiling and chic, a little uninhibited, and holding a black giant sword in his hand, just casually carrying it on his shoulder, reflecting a somewhat dazzling bald head, so eye-catching and different from ordinary people's appearance, there is only one person in the entire Jinhong Mountain, it is the eldest disciple of the real person in charge of the sect, and at the same time ranks the first of the three swords of Ling Xiao, and the most prestigious among the disciples of the younger generation of Ling Xiao Sect, Du Tiejian.

Old man Pu's sleeves rolled up, squinted at Du Tiejian who came over, stopped, but snorted angrily, and said, "Why are you here?"

Du Tiejian smiled and said, "Didn't I hear that Uncle Pu is planning to accept apprentices today, come over and see the excitement." As he spoke, he turned around and saluted Sun Mingyang and Yun Ni, but maybe he was used to being indifferent, and the number of etiquette was also a little casual, but Yun and Sun, the two high-ranking Yuan Dan Realm real people, also seemed to have a different view of this Du Tiejian, and they didn't care about his negligence, they just bowed their heads lightly, and they could be regarded as having met and said hello.

Even if it was rumored that Du Tiejian had scolded Elder Sun Mingyang behind his back and was punished by the real person in charge, Elder Sun didn't show any anger and disgust at this moment, it looked like he had seen an ordinary nephew, it was no different.

The originally tense atmosphere in the field was eased by Du Tiejian's sudden appearance, but seeing that Old Man Pu was snorting angrily, Du Tiejian smiled and said, "Uncle Shi, why are you so angry?"

Old man Pu pointed at Sun Mingyang and said, "The old man accepts apprentices, this old man came over and intervened, aren't you annoyed by you?"

Du Tiejian coughed, lowered his voice slightly, and said, "Uncle Shi, this matter ...... Elder Sun had already spoken to Master and his old man. ”

"Huh?" Old Man Pu was stunned, turned his head to look at Du Tiejian, and said in amazement: "What?"

On the side, Elder Sun Mingyang's face showed a hint of a smile, smiling slightly, and he didn't say anything.

Du Tiejian smiled bitterly and said in a low voice: "Senior uncle, my master said that when the meeting was held that day, several of you did decide that from now until the Four Righteous Assembly, all the elders must be strict in accepting disciples, and to be honest, the examination school you set before is indeed a little ...... Hmm, that's too low. ”

Old man Pu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Stinky boy, you dare to talk about me!"

Du Tiejian was not afraid of him, but smiled: "You are really, since you want to accept apprentices, why did you shout so loudly during the meeting that day, and set the rules to death?"

Old man Pu snorted, and said with some annoyance: "At that time, the old man didn't expect to accept apprentices, in this way, you go back and tell your master, I will take back those words, damn, help your unlucky master shout and cheer half to death, and I didn't say anything good, but I still trapped myself, don't do it, don't do it!"

Du Tiejian laughed dryly, first smiled apologetically at the other two elders, and then hurriedly pulled him to the side, so that he could persuade for a while, and then patted his chest and didn't know what he promised to Old Man Pu, which made Old Man Pu's face soothe a little, but he still aimed at Du Tiejian suspiciously.

"Stinky boy, are you serious?"

Du Tiejian laughed, with a heroic attitude, and said with a smile: "The eldest husband is hard to chase after the horse, just one word, in the future, I will help you cover the little junior brother." Saying that, he turned around and waved his hand at Shen Shi from afar, and Shen Shi was standing there and hurriedly returned the salute.

Old Man Pu snorted, and finally didn't say anything more, while Du Tiejian turned around with a smile, walked in front of Sun Mingyang and Yun Ni again, and said, "Two elders, my master asked me to pass on a message, saying that Elder Sun advocates strict observance of the rules, which is right, and it should be so." ”

Sun Mingyang had a smile on his face, and said with his head bowed: "Senior Brother really understands things. ”

Du Tiejian smiled, then took another step forward, got closer to Sun Mingyang, and said in a low voice: "Senior Uncle Sun, Master said something else, no matter what, you are all brothers in the same sect, and you are in the same position of the five elders, so you still have to give some face; Why don't you compromise on this school, since you have already said it, uncle, then let him go to the middle sea of the Coral Sea to look for silver light anemone pearls, but the number is limited to one, what do you think?"

Sun Mingyang pondered for a moment, and then said lightly: "The old man just hopes that everything in the door has rules, not that there is any prejudice against that little disciple, since the senior brother in charge said so, then so be it." As he spoke, he turned his gaze and looked at Elder Yunni who was standing aside, Yun Ni's bright eyes and beautiful eyes turned, and his face was also pale and he didn't speak, just nodded slightly, which was considered to be agreed.

Du Tiejian took a step back with a smile, and the old man Pu over there walked over with an angry face, and shouted to Shen Shi: "Come here, let's go, today we have to see if you have the ability to find me a silver light anemone pearl back!"

Shen Shi took a deep breath and hurriedly walked over, Xu Yanzhi also followed with concern, who knew that the old man Pu waved his hand at her and said, "Girl, you stay at home, don't come to join in the fun." ”

"Hey!" Xu Yanzhi was stunned for a moment, and before he wanted to argue, he saw the old man Pu roll up his robe casually, and a strong wind rose instantly, pulling Shen Shi to his side, and then floated up like this, and flew straight into the sky, Sun Mingyang and Yunni next to him also flew up, and several figures went straight to the blue sky, and in a blink of an eye, they turned into several black spots and disappeared between the blue sky and white clouds.

※※※

To the north of Liuyun City, on a secluded street leaning against the towering city wall, there were many houses and courtyards with uneven pavilions, many of which were small families, and Sun You had come all the way to this side after leaving the Ansan Inn with Ling Chunni.

The place where he placed Ling Chunni was just as he said before, it was a small house, there was only one room in total, plus a small courtyard surrounded by white walls outside the house that was less than half the area of the house, and a half-old locust tree, standing crooked in the corner of the courtyard, simple, secluded and deserted.

After chatting with Ling Chunni in the house for a few words, and after some explanations, Sun You said goodbye and walked out of here, and when the door was closed, he happened to see Xiao Hei running out, running around the small courtyard, and then sneaking under the locust tree and rubbing it, as if he was quite satisfied with this place, he just lay under the tree like this, and looked like he wanted to sleep again.

Sun You smiled, closed the door, and turned around to see a middle-aged man standing not far from the side of the road outside the house, who was smiling at him. Sun You also nodded at him with a smile and shouted, "Uncle." ”

That person's face is a little familiar, it is the old time when Sun You Shen Shi and others were still practicing on Qingyu Island, Xu Xing, who had helped Sun You's brother-in-law Xu Xing, after many years, his appearance looks a little more vicissitudes than back then, but the whole person still looks capable and capable.

Waiting for Sun You to come over, Xu Xing glanced at the room and asked with a smile, "Are they all settled?"

Sun You said: "Well, it's almost all explained. After a pause, he glanced at Xu Xing again and said, "Uncle, it's really safe here, right? If something happens to this woman, I won't be able to explain it to Shen Shi." ”

Xu Xing nodded and said, "Don't worry, you can't trust your uncle." This house has nothing to do with the Sun and Xu families, and even if someone investigates, they can only find out that the property was bought by a certain trader, and it will be fine. ”

Sun You sighed, and his expression looked a little more relaxed.

It's just that the two walked forward side by side for a while, but Xu Xing seemed to be unable to help it, and said to Sun You: "But I always feel that you don't seem to need to help that woman do this, although this house is not big, but in this Liuyun City, if you want to buy such an industry, you have to spend at least eight or nine thousand spirit crystals, and it is not an exaggeration to have a slightly better location of tens of thousands." ”

Sun You said lightly: "I'm not helping that woman, I'm helping Shen Shi." ”

Xu Xing nodded and said, "Of course, but ......" He hesitated, but lowered his voice slightly, and said, "I heard that Shen Shi unexpectedly left the Lingxiao Sect a few years ago, and as a result, he did not make an inch of progress in the Dao Realm, and now among the disciples of the Ning Yuan Realm on Jinhong Mountain, if you talk about the Dao Realm alone, I am afraid that you will be ranked at the bottom." I don't think it's worth the effort you spend so much effort to make friends like this. ”

Sun You's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at Xu Xing, only to see Xu Xing's face calm, looking at himself calmly. Sun You was silent for a moment and said, "I know that you are for my good, uncle, but about Shen Shi, the reason why I focus on helping him is naturally for a reason." ”

He smiled and said, "First, uncle, you have left the sect to return to the Xu family in the past few years, so you may not be very clear about some personnel details. Shen Shi he was indeed delayed for three years, but as soon as he returned to the mountain, he almost immediately advanced to the Ning Yuan Realm, and since these days, I have seen that he is still the same as in the past, often going down the mountain alone to sharpen and explore, and face all kinds of demon beast opponents, so if I expect it to be good, although Shen Shi's Taoism at the moment is not high, his actual combat power will never be low. In time, when he ascends to the realm of Taoism, what kind of character will he be at that time?"

Xu Xing let out an "ah" and thought thoughtfully.

Sun You paused for a moment, and then said: "By the way, there is another thing you may not know yet, that is, Shen Shi is likely to have been favored by Elder Pu Siyi Pu, the head of the Seven Halls of the Lingxiao Sect recently, and he may directly worship under Elder Pu in the near future and become one of the disciples of the lineage." You wouldn't think that a great true person of the Yuan Dan Realm, and also a great cultivator who was ranked among the five elders of the Ling Xiao Sect, would have a worse vision than ours, right?"

Xu Xing was obviously taken aback, it seemed that the news that Elder Pu Siyi was going to accept Shen Shi as an apprentice was quite shocking, and quickly changed his opinion, after muttering for a while, he suddenly seemed to remember something, and looked up and asked Sun You: "It seems that Shen Shi does have some potential, Xiaoyou, you have a good eye, but you just said that it is one of them, is there any other reason?"

Sun You was silent for a while, and then said calmly: "Second, I really treat him as a friend. ”
