Killing God

Chapter One Hundred and Seventeen

On the stage of watching the sea, Hongjun under the column.

The disciples of the Lingxiaozong passing by from far and near will look at this place from time to time with strange eyes, Shen Shi, Sun You and Zhong Qingzhu are silent and speechless, after a long time, perhaps they feel uncomfortable with this somewhat depressed atmosphere, Sun You The first one opened his mouth and gave a dry smile, and said: "Stone, we all believe in you, and I think you have a good relationship with Zhong Qinglu on weekdays. How could you be assaulted as the rumors say? These rumors are said to be true one by one, do you know who arranged you behind?"

When Sun You said that Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu had a good relationship, Zhong Qinglu's eyes flashed slightly, but there was no change in her expression. Finally, when Sun You asked Shen Shi where the rumor came from, she also showed a listening look. .

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, and said faintly: "There were only four people present yesterday. Apart from me, Qing Lu had no reason to say such things. Then the source of this rumor is only the Zhong family and the elixir. Brother Ji’an Fuji in the temple is here."

"Jianfu?"

Sun You and Zhong Qingzhu spoke at the same time. The difference is that Sun You is a little bit confused and does not seem to know this person, while Zhong Qingzhu's expression is somewhat surprised, looking at Shen Shi, Said: "Why did he go to Zhong's house?"

Shen Shi slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know about that. Anyway, these people were there." After a pause, he suddenly frowned and said thoughtfully, "Speaking of which, I have seen it in the past. Several times this brother Ji, it seems that his attitude towards me is not very friendly."

Zhong Qingzhu was startled and said, "Why is this?"

Shen Shi thought for a while, just wanted to say something, but after seeing Zhong Qingzhu he was hesitant to say something, then he shook his head and smiled lightly, and said, "Who knows, maybe I offended him somewhere. That’s it, the rumors are still rumors after all, and they stop at the wise. As long as I ignore them, they will be subdued after a while."

Sun You and Zhong Qingzhu also looked at each other silently. There is really no better way to deal with it without evidence. It can only be treated like this, which is a dumb loss. Sun You sighed and said angrily:

"That's true for Zhong Qinglu, come out and just explain a few sentences and you will understand everything clearly, why not speak?"

Shen Shi had turned around. He paused slightly when he heard that, but a bitter smile passed by the corner of his mouth, but Zhong Qingzhu had been staring at him. He hesitated for a moment, but walked to Shen Shi's side and said: "Maybe it's Qing There is nothing important that Sister Lu has encountered in the past two days, and there is no other meaning." Shen Shi smiled, smiled slightly at Zhong Qingzhu, his eyes fell on her face, but looked more. Gave her a few glances.

Zhong Qingzhu was staring at him and suddenly felt a little nervous, his cheeks reddened for no reason, and then he whispered: "What do you think of me like this?"

Shen Shi smiled and said, "These days I went back to the mountain. I see you are much more confident and reserved than when we first met on Herring Island. I thought you had changed a lot. But now it seems that you still know me in your heart. Like the girl in, she is very considerate of other people, especially the one who takes care of her."

Zhong Qing's teeth bit his red lips slightly, and then smiled sweetly, beautifully and beautifully, but he didn't say anything.

In the following days, Shen Shi has been living on Jinhong Mountain. In addition to the daily fixed practice and talisman homework, he will also set aside one or two hours a day to go to the study hall and read the ancient books. , He still remembered the weird and disappearing spirit grass from Xiao Hei's body. He thought about some ways to trick him out of Cong Xiao Hei.

The thought that there might be a dozen mountains and countless spiritual herbs hidden in Xiao Hei's body, and there may even be rare and rare spiritual medicines of the highest grade up to the fifth grade. Shen Shi, who has grown up in shops since childhood, is really tickling No, it took a while to hold Xiao Hei.

It's just that because of the dragon blood gift, Xiao Hei seems to be a lot smarter than before. In the past, one or two spirit crystals could easily handle things, but now this pig shows no signs of being fooled anymore. No matter if Shen Shi is soft and hard, Xiao Hei is still mighty and unyielding. He sleeps every day or plays in the valleys and forests, and his life is not too comfortable and happy.

But fortunately, Shen Shi has recently had a lot of money. With the income of that Kuiwen Demon Pill, it can be said that this period is the time when Shen Shi has the most spirit crystals since he started practicing, so he is not too much. After being depressed, at most he would just laugh and scold Xiao Hei, that's all.

As for the book hall in the study hall, after reading this period of time, Shen Shi can be regarded as a rough understanding of the situation in the study hall, but the situation is not very good. It wasn't that the book hall was obstructed, but the scrolls and ancient books in the sea of ​​books, even more than ten times more than he originally expected.

In Shen Shi's life, he had never seen such a huge volume of scrolls being held in the same place at the same time. At a glance, it was boundless, and it was as boundless as a sea. While the Shutang collected so many books, it was also responsible for the task of storing and protecting the many Taoist and magical secrets of the Lingxiaozong, and these things were obviously much more pressing than those broken books that no one had read thousands of years ago. Therefore, most of the manpower under the book hall is used to care for the secrets of the important books of the door. As for other books, especially the ancient books from the days of the Heavenly Demon King’s Court, most of them are directly stacked on the shelves and placed. No one will bother about being neat.

As for what to classify and distinguish carefully, I don’t even have to think about it. I don’t need to think about anything else. There are at least 300,000 copies of ancient books in the book sea here, even if it’s a cultivator. Wen Qiangji is better than mortals, but it is a tedious and tedious task that takes time, effort and energy to watch these scrolls carefully and carefully, and everyone is a cultivator. Who has that leisure and leisure will cause countless wastes. Energy time to do this useless work?

Therefore, after Shen Shi went to Shuhai two or three times, he basically despaired of the possibility of finding some truth about Huang Ming ten thousand years ago through this path. Now he is just a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Come here and take a look casually, it can be considered as having an explanation for Gu Lingyun in the future.

Originally, this kind of life was considered peaceful, and looking at the appearance of a somewhat uncontested meditation practice, it was just that Shen Shi stayed on Jinhong Mountain for more than half a month, only to find that his situation was a bit uncomfortable.

There is no other reason, it is that the rumor that they thought would be subdued soon, in these days, instead of being silent, it has become more and more ups and downs, spreading more and more intense, and even more bizarre versions have appeared.

Among other things, in the rumors that Shen Shi heard, there are actually people who say that in Floating Cloud City that day, a disciple of Shen surnamed Jinhongshan was treacherous and cunning, and coveted the beauty of Miss Zhong’s family. It turned out to be an intent to rape, but to rape. When the girl failed to return home, the harlot went straight to chase her home, so that all sorts of scolding and expelling things happened later.

The rumors have reached this point, and it’s already a bit weird. Even if you told Shen Shi's Sun You personally, he would laugh with Shen Shi as a joke. It’s just that Shen Shi, who was the client, was depressed. I can't laugh anymore. And there is another thing in the middle, that is, after so long, Zhong Qinglu has never appeared. Some people say that she is practicing alchemy, some people say that she is in retreat, and some people fan the flames and say that Miss Zhong’s soul was hurt. Not dare to see people, so all kinds of things, but on the other hand, it also increased the momentum of the rumors.

At the end, even Sun You became a little worried, and secretly said to Shen Shi: "Or you should go down the mountain and stay for a while and then come back. As long as you are not there, this rumor is unpredictable, maybe it will calm down by itself. ."

After Shen Shi thought about it, he also agreed with Sun You's statement, but he was really depressed in his heart, and it didn't need to be mentioned. He complained a lot in front of Sun You, and was especially annoyed with that Senior Brother Ji'an Fuji.

Sun You was strange, and said: "A few days ago, didn't you still suspect the Zhong family and Ji Anfu at the same time? Why is he the only one left now?"

Shen Shi said indifferently: "If you were Zhong Liancheng, and the shame of your own daughter being forced to rape, would you really go everywhere to publicize the ups and downs in the city?"

Suddenly, Sun You nodded and said yes.

He wrote a black account for the Ji Anfu in his heart, and Shen Shi packed up his clothes, brought Xiao Hei, and went straight down the mountain.

After leaving Jinhong Mountain, I felt that my ears became clearer. Counting the days, it seemed that it was approaching the one-month period agreed with Gu Lingyun that day. The auction held by the Fairy Society privately organized Shen Shi still had some interest. He took Xiao Hei directly to Floating Cloud City.

At the same time, in the study room on the fourth floor of the Floating Cloud City Fairy Association, Gu Lingyun was sitting on the comfortable and large chair, holding a file in his hand, watching attentively. Apart from her in the room, the Master Witch was sitting around, with a cup of tea in his hand, just gently savoring.

Gu Lingyun stared at the text of the dossier. After reading it carefully, he closed his eyes and thought for a while, looked at Master Wu, and said:

"The high-grade spirit materials allocated from the main hall of this month are not bad, roughly the same as before, but the number of demon pills is a bit less."

The witch master put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "This is also impossible. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer monsters in the Hongmeng realm high-ranking alchemy. Only in the wild and dangerous savage territories can they survive, or even more There are more in remote and inaccessible alien worlds, so natural production is scarce."

Gu Lingyun nodded, then glanced at the file in his hand, gazing across the line of letters and numbers, and suddenly she seemed to have discovered something. She suddenly stopped her gaze, but saw one of the items. Immediately there was a bit of surprise in his voice, saying:

"Hey, there are actually ten magic rainbow flowers set aside by the main hall this month, which is double the number before." Her delicate and beautiful brows wrinkled slightly. After thinking about it carefully, she turned her head and said to Master Wu: "I remember that this magic rainbow flower is a fourth-grade spirit grass, which is very useful and effective, but it has always been sparse in quantity and seems to be limited in the production area, so it has never been much. Why is there suddenly more in the main hall this month? so much?"

Master Wu shook his head, saying that he didn't know it either.

Gu Lingyun pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised her head and asked, "Mr. Wu, where did you know where this magic rainbow flower is produced?"

Master Witch nodded readily this time, and said, "I know, it's the blood moon world."
