Killing God

Chapter 220: Ceremony is more important than affection

Zhong Qinglu was taken aback, raised her head and glanced at Shen Shi, only to see Shen Shi smiling and looking at herself, she hesitated, then nodded and said softly: "Okay."

Shen Shi nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll see you tonight, I'll go first."

After speaking, he turned and left the Spirit Medicine Hall, Xiao Hei lazily got up from the ground, and followed swayingly. Looking at his back from the spirit medicine temple, Zhong Qinglu's eyes flickered in her bright eyes, and she didn't know what was thinking in her heart?

After leaving the Elixir Palace, Shen Shi did not go to other places, but went straight down to the Guanhaitai, and walked along the mountain road all the way back to his own cave house in that secluded valley. I haven’t returned for many days. The scenery in the valley still looks the same as before. The shade of the trees is dense and green. Between the old vines and the old trees, the sound of the water from the waterfall in the distance is far away, a few birds singing, a few cold winds, It seems that being here always makes people feel that time is stagnant, just like something in this valley, it will never change, it has always been like this.

Shen Shi walked through the moss-covered mountain road, and the air was a bit damp as usual. The first thing he saw was not his own cave, but in his impression that the door has been closed for a long time and there has been no movement. The neighbor next door.

This unfamiliar and never-changing cave house, and Shen Shi’s own cave house are the only two cave houses in this valley. Perhaps because this valley is dark and wet, it is indeed not liked by most of the Lingxiao Sect disciples. The cave houses opened up here are also pitiful. Shen Shi has lived here for some time, but he has never seen anyone in the cave next door, including today, the Shimen is also closed.

Maybe no one lives here at all.

Shen Shi turned this thought in his heart, walked briskly, walked around the corner of the mountain road, listening to the sound of splashing in front of him gradually louder, and quickly saw the "home" of his own.

A lot of fallen leaves had fallen in front of the gate of the cave. It seemed that the appearance of Shimen was a little bit depressed, and the master of the cave was not there. No one on this mountain would come to help him clean the gate.

However, Shen Shi didn't care very much. He strode over and felt a kind of cordial feeling in his heart. He waved his sleeves a few times, and a few strong winds blew out from the bottom of his sleeves, and most of the fallen leaves were easily withered. Ye Blow reached the side of the road, and immediately made the stone path in front of the door look neat and clean.

Taking out the cloud symbol and opening the stone gate, the stone gate slowly moved and opened with the rumbling sound, but Shen Shi did not enter the door immediately, but after a slight pause in his footsteps, he lowered his head and smiled at Xiao Hei: "Xiao Hei, both When you come back, you can just go out and play, just remember this valley elsewhere."

The little black pig looked up at him, as if it was all right for this proposal, but after a while, he turned his head and glanced at the direction of the waterfall, seemingly interested, then turned around and headed towards the waterfall. Ran deep into the valley.

Shen Shi glanced over there, and there was a waterfall in the depths of this valley. He lived here for a long time. Of course, he had seen it twice in the past, but it looks like a small waterfall in the middle of the mountain. That's it, the flowing water converges into a stream, winding through the bottom of the valley. However, when the little black pig stays in this valley on weekdays, he always likes to sneak to play near the waterfall when he has nothing to do. I don't know why.

Turning around and entering the cave, Shen Shi closed the stone gate first with his backhand. In the cave where there is the immortal family's Taoist method, there is almost no dust left, everything is as clean and tidy as when he left last time. Shen Shi looked around, and then walked to the depths of the cave mansion, but this time he did not walk to the daily living bedroom like in the past, but walked into another empty room next to the bedroom that occupies an even larger space. .

Several long and neat stone troughs have been dug out on the stone walls on both sides of this stone room, as well as two stone stands. Looking at the regulations, it is the standard warehouse for disciples in the High Sect. Shen Shi stood in the center of the stone room and looked around for a while, seeming to be observing and estimating. After a while, he nodded, but then stretched out his hand and took out a wishful bag from his arms.

This wishful bag looks ordinary, but it is not the one he usually hangs around his waist. It is a few days ago by the small forest outside Floating Cloud City. He and the half-human and half-ghost monster. After winning an unexplainable deal, Hou Sheng gave him something.

Shen Shi glanced at the wishful bag in his hand, took a deep breath, suddenly flipped his wrist, turned the mouth of the bag upside down, and at the same time the spiritual power sank into it, and began to flip the object. After a while, only a glimmer of light came from the wishful bag. The last thing flashed past, one by one began to be dumped out of this wishful bag.

There are so many kinds of spirit grasses, with various shapes and different shapes, and the number is surprisingly numerous, but Shen Shi's face is always calm, just watching the bunches of spirit grasses constantly The earth poured down from that wishful bag, and quickly piled up in this stone chamber, and it continued to increase and expand.

A peculiar fragrance of lingcao also permeated the stone room.

At this moment, if Xiao Hei, who is addicted to spirit grass, was here, I was afraid that he could not help but drool and rushed forward, but fortunately, Shen Shi had foreseen it, and he would have taken the food away early in the morning. And this amazing wishful bag was given to him by Hou Sheng. It was regarded as a thank you for helping Hou Sheng find his father. This deal was when he accidentally encountered Hou Sheng during his expedition in Centipede Mountain. Reached.

Of course, it is impossible for this to be smooth sailing, but in any case, maybe it is the horrible scene under Zhen Hun Yuan, or after all, there was a fellowship in the past, and Shen Shi is still helping After waiting to win, let their father and son reunite.

Just thinking that their father and son were together, Shen Shi sighed softly in his heart. He didn't know where his old father Shen Tai was now?

Ruyi bags can hold a lot of things, similar to spirit grass, which is not too big, it can hold a lot more. It takes a long time for the wish bag to be poured out before all the spirit grass is poured out. In this stone room, there has been a pile of medicines that are four or five feet tall and are all piled up with various spirit grasses.

Seeing this pile of spiritual grass, Rao Shi Shen Shi also took a deep breath. In the centipede mountain that day, Hou Sheng expressed his sincerity, and he really had lost his blood, and this...Is it an overnight wealth?

Anyway, looking at the pair of spirit grasses, Shen Shi's mood improved a lot, and then he squatted down and began to tidy up, distinguish, summarize, and sort out the huge pile of spirit grasses.

This is not a simple task that consumes much energy and requires a high degree of insight, but fortunately for Shen Shi, this is a huge problem for most cultivators rather than too difficult.

One by one spiritual grass, living in his hand, he can quickly identify the type, name, grade, medicinal properties and even the nature of the spiritual grass by just looking at almost every kind of grass. The appearance is good or bad, and then put them on the open space next to them and put them in different categories.

The stone room was quiet and silent, only seeing his busy figure walking back and forth between the medicine pile and the stone room open space, and then kept moving away from the pile of spiritual grass.

In this way, time passed unconsciously, the pile of spiritual herbs slowly but uninterruptedly fell down, and the spiritual grass distributed on the open space of this spacious stone room gradually increased and gradually occupied all the space. Looking at it, it seems that this stone room has been covered with a carpet made of spirit grass, which is enough to make many low-level monks jealous.

※※※

When Shen Shi finally finished picking and sorting out all the spiritual grasses, and when the piles of complex and diverse spiritual grasses were completely separated into categories, Shen Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief and stretched out a big laziness.

There are really a lot of herbs in this pile. According to a rough estimate, the total number should be in the early thousandths, but the quality of the spirit grass is still a little worse. More than 70% of it is the most common first-grade spirit grass. The second-rank spirit grass accounted for more than 20% of the remaining, and the third-rank spirit grass that is truly worthy of attention and can serve as the main material of some important alchemy is still pitiful. Shen Shi searched for a long time, and probably only found less than 50 Strain.

However, Shen Shi did not have any dissatisfaction with this result. In fact, it should have been the same. The third-rank spirit herb is rare. It is a pleasant surprise to have a number of fifty. This number alone, coupled with some auxiliary materials, In fact, it is enough to refine a valuable pill. And those first-grade and second-grade spirit grasses can actually be worth a lot of spirit crystals, and many of them are the auxiliary materials of many pill recipes.

But other than that, Shen Shi hadn't seen any of the spirit grasses higher than the third rank of the fourth rank, which was a small regret.

Shen Shi stood in the facts and looked around. After pondering for a while, he seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he nodded slightly. After going to the Wishful Bag before, he began to walk on the ground. In the middle, his eyes are bright and focused, and from time to time he will bend down and pick up a kind of spiritual grass, all of which are put into a wishful bag.

Stopping and picking like this, the spiritual grass on the ground began to gradually decrease. When Shen Shi walked back and forth in the stone chamber three or four times, the number of spiritual grass on the ground had almost been reduced by half, including the most important third-grade spirit. The grass was almost filled with about thirty plants of eight kinds in his wishful bag.

At this time, Shen Shi glanced at the wishful bag in his hand, nodded slightly, then put the wishful bag away, and then took out another wishful bag. This time it was much neater and he didn't mean to distinguish it carefully. Instead, all the remaining spirit grass on the open space of the stone room was packed into it, and then placed on a stone shelf next to it.

After finishing so embarrassingly, Shen Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and when he was about to walk back to the bedroom to take a rest, he heard a sound from the stone door, as if someone was knocking at the door.

Shen Shi was startled and walked quickly to remove the stone gate. Huo Ran saw that the sky outside the cave was dark and yellow, and a woman was standing outside his cave in the evening breeze and night, her hair hanging down her shoulders and her face gentle. , Is smiling and looking at himself.

But Zhong Qinglu has already arrived.

Shen Shi stayed for a while. He didn't expect to sort out the pile of spirit grass by himself. After so long before he knew it, he quickly smiled and said, "You are here, please come in."

Zhong Qinglu smiled slightly, walked in, looked around at his cave in a blink of an eye, suddenly frowned, and said: "Hey, you have lived here for so long, so why don't you buy more things? It's so crude."

Shen Shi laughed. He really didn't put much effort into this cave house, but he didn't care. He took Zhong Qinglu to the table and sat down, and smiled and said, "Isn't I lazy? Up."

Zhong Qinglu chuckled and shook her head, but she looked as though she didn't believe him. Her bright eyes swept across the nearby cave, as if she had some intentions.

Shen Shi didn't pay attention to Zhong Qinglu's expressions, but took out a wishful bag from his arms and gently pushed it onto the table in front of Zhong Qinglu.

Zhong Qinglu was taken aback, and said: "What?"

Shen Shi smiled slightly and said, "For you."
