Chapter 109 News
The beautiful woman standing on the stairs is indeed Gu Lingyun, the shopkeeper of the Shenxianhui branch in Xilu City, Yinzhou. It is also this seemingly gentle and weak woman who is actually thoughtful and well-planned. The secret calculation of the elders of the Yuandan realm of the Xuanyin Gate, and at the same time made Shen Tai and Shenshi father and son abandon all the family business and leave their homes, including Shen Shi's worship under the Lingxiao sect, which is also Gu Lingyun's handwriting.
All these years of encounters, tracing the roots, are all in this woman.
Shen Shi stared at her, who seemed to have almost no change from the appearance in the memory of the year, and felt emotional for a while, but this feeling flashed by, and what followed was a strong impulse. That's how I missed my father Shen Tai for so many years, maybe this woman should know his whereabouts! This thought was like a fire suddenly burning in his heart, and he couldn't help stepping forward.
Master Witch's gaze became slightly colder, looking at Shen Shi, Shen Shi suddenly felt that there was a looming chill wafting around him, blocking him, as if he had some resilience invisible. His heart suddenly shook, and his steps stopped immediately. Unexpectedly, this witch master was a monk with extremely high Taoism. I don't know what realm he has cultivated, but Shen Shi has already felt that he is much higher than himself.
At this time, Gu Lingyun, who was standing on a higher ladder, was startled when he heard the word "Aunt Gu", and his eyes flickered in his bright eyes, and he looked at Shen Shi, and after a while, a pair of beautiful shows The eyebrows frowned slightly, as if thinking, and as if reminiscing about the past. After staring at Shen Shi for a few breaths, she suddenly raised her brows, as if thinking of something, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, and then a smile appeared again. Meaning, saying:
"Shen Shi?"
Shen Shi nodded and said, "It's me."
Gu Lingyun smiled and shook his head, holding on to the railing, and smiling: "Is it really a coincidence in this world? It's such a coincidence that we will meet here again."
Shen Shi was silent for a while, counting time. When he left Yinzhou that year, he was only a twelve-year-old boy. After that, he joined the Lingxiaozong and practiced on Qingyu Island for five years. After that, he accidentally triggered in the depths of Demon Island. The golden body stone formation entered the demon world, and spent another three years there, only to return to the human world not long ago.
Counting it all, the two have been separated from Xilu City, Yinzhou, but eight years have passed in a blink of an eye, and he has also grown from a young man to an imposing young man. In terms of height alone, he is even taller than Gu Lingyun. It's half way out.
It’s just that although Gu Lingyun looks weak and coquettish, but for some reason in the field, her aura always seems to be centered on her. No matter who she is, she seems to be standing on a high place and looking down lightly. Perhaps, it’s actually because she is standing at this moment. The person on the stairs, that is, she stands tallest...
At this time, Master Witch had noticed that the two of them seemed to be not strangers. With a little surprise, he turned to look at Gu Lingyun and said, "The shopkeeper, do you know him?"
Gu Lingyun smiled, his expression turned calm again, and said, "I have seen it many years ago, and I am considered the son of an old man."
Master Witch nodded, and Gu Lingyun's gaze immediately fell on the demon pill in Master Witch's hand. He glanced at Shen Shi again, and after a moment of indulgence, he said, "Let's go up and talk."
As she said, she turned around and continued to walk upstairs. Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and followed, while Master Witch frowned slightly, but soon she said to Chen Lidao who was still standing under the stairs:
"Well, this business is handled by the old man, so leave it alone."
Chen Li has been working in this Haizhou Shenxianhui branch for many years. He knows that this witch master is highly respected and has great power in the shop. He quickly agreed and retired, while the witch master was holding this demon pill. Go upstairs too.
Shen Shi followed Gu Lingyun all the way to the third floor, and found that the layout here was different from the two floors below. It seemed that the scale was smaller, but only four rooms were separated, and the decorations were magnificent everywhere. Win downstairs. Standing at the entrance of the stairs on the third floor, there were four men in fairy club clothes standing on both sides, looking like guards. Obviously, this floor is no longer a place where anyone can come up.
However, seeing Gu Lingyun and the other three coming up, the four men all stepped back at the same time, stepping away, and at the same time showing a somewhat respectful look on their faces, and said in unison: "Good shopkeeper."
Gu Lingyun nodded faintly, then walked to the east side of the four large rooms on the third floor, opened the door and walked in. Shen Shi and Master Wu followed behind her and entered the house.
The furnishings in the room are magnificent and luxurious. Even the wood of the table and chair furniture seems to be made of expensive spiritual wood, and the details are equally exquisite. The fringed window eyebrows, carved beasts and birds are all lifelike. It is made by skilled craftsmen.
In addition, there is a large ebony table in front of the most conspicuous place. In addition to the four treasures of the study, there are a lot of paper scrolls on it, such as the desk where Gu Lingyun usually deals with affairs, and the white walls on both sides. On the other hand, there is a row of bookshelves standing with many books on them. They are neatly arranged and not stained. They should be cleaned and cleaned from time to time, which looks very elegant.
In the corner of the big house, there is a white crane bronze furnace, with a light smoke and a faint fragrance, which quietly rises from there. After smelling it, you only feel refreshed, and it seems to have a refreshing effect.
Gu Lingyun walked to the black sandalwood desk and sat down, watching Master Witch and Shen Shi also come over, first looked at Master Witch, Master Witch put the demon pill in his hand on the desk, and whispered: "The shopkeeper ,look……"
Gu Lingyun smiled slightly and said, "You have to finish this business first. You don't have to have other worries, just follow the shop's usual rules."
Master Witch nodded, then turned around, looked at Shen Shi, and said, "Master Shen, right?"
At this moment, Shen Shi knew that the old man with white beard and hair and half-bald head was not a mortal, so he didn't dare to neglect, so he hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Boy Shen Shi, Master Wu called my name directly."
The witch master smiled, and did not entangle him in these polite remarks. He just took the demon pill and put it in his palm, showed it in front of him, and said: "I just said that this demon pill is indeed There is a rather rare Kuiwen, Master Shen's family is very knowledgeable, since he knows this statement, he must also know the origin of the name of the Kuiwen?"
Shen Shi pondered for a moment, and said: "It is said that when a high-level monster is cultivating a pill, if its demon power is impure and forced to form a pill, or if it is disturbed during the pill formation, the demon pill will have a flawed pill pattern. The power of the monster beast will be greatly damaged, and the effect of the demon pill with pill pattern will also be worse. However, if the monster beast is practicing, there is a kind of rare spiritual material that is extremely aura or even leaks, such as some High-level spirit grass, spirit mine, or natural black stone strange treasure, the spiritual power will feed back the demon pill, and also form a special pattern, this is the Kui pattern. However, the Kui pattern is different from the pill pattern, and the demon pill with Kui pattern , The demon power often contained is more refined, and the effect is greater than that of ordinary demon pills. If the demon pill itself is in good condition, it is the top grade among demon pills."
Master Witch nodded slowly, his eyes were already showing some appreciation, and he smiled: "Yes, yes, young people can understand this, this knowledge is really rare. But you can know that this Kui pattern is What caused it?"
Shen Shi paused, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "This is really invisible."
The witch master smiled and said: "This is the iron wolf king spider usually inhabits near the nest, and there is a fifth-grade spirit grass'Nine-leaf Alsophila spinulosa'. It absorbs the essence of the spirit grass for a long time and integrates into the demon pill, and Fang Chengkui pattern. Look at Although the shape and color of this pattern is dim, how many veins are there in the dark that look like the veins of Alsophila spinulosa?
Shen Shi took a closer look. After a long while, his face showed sincere admiration, and he clasped his fists to the witch master, and said with a serious face: "Master has extraordinary knowledge, Shen Shi's five bodies are on the ground, thank you for teaching me."
Master Witch smiled slightly, stroking his beard without speaking.
After Shen Shi thanked him, his face suddenly became stiff. In this moment, he had already figured out one thing. The demon pill is here. The demon beast is dead, so the priceless strain is as high as five. Where is the nine-leaf Alsophila spinulosa of Pinling Grass?
At this moment, he screamed secretly in his heart, but turned his head to find that Xiao Hei hadn't followed him. He seemed to be napping on the floor outside the house, looking lazily.
"This dead pig..." Shen Shi stared at it bitterly.
At this time, the witch master spoke to Shen Shi again: "Since everyone understands people, I will not tell you anything. This Kuiwen Demon Pill is indeed stronger than ordinary demon pill, but the Iron Wolf King Spider itself is not top grade. Monster beasts, the condensed Monster Pills are often not full of demon power, so if you count it, if you want to sell, our shop is willing to give out four thousand spirit crystals."
After speaking, his eyes were piercing, but he looked at Shen Shi. Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and then nodded immediately, saying, "Thank you, Master, then four thousand."
Master Witch nodded and turned to Gu Lingyun, who was watching this scene with interest while sitting behind the desk and said: "The shopkeeper, then I will go out and do this first. After the account is made, I also mentioned the spirit crystal and handed it to Master Shen. ."
Gu Lingyun nodded, and said, "Trouble Master Witch."
Master Witch smiled, Shen Shi also thanked him, Master Witch didn't say much, and walked straight out of the room, and when he went out, he also took the door with him.
※※※
In the huge room, only Shen Shi and Gu Lingyun were left at this moment. After Master Wu went out, the atmosphere before and after the desk suddenly became quiet.
Looking at it, Gu Lingyun seemed to still be looking at herself but didn't mean to speak. Shen Shi coughed, took a step forward, and said, "Gu...er, shopkeeper..."
Before he finished his words, he suddenly heard Gu Lingyun faintly saying: "Do you think I am older now than when you saw me?"
Shen Shi was stunned, but he didn't react to Gu Lingyun's somewhat thoughtless question. He hesitated for a moment, and said: "I am not old, your appearance is almost the same as when I first saw you.
Gu Lingyun smiled, leaned back slightly, leaned on the back of the large and comfortable chair, and smiled and said: "I just heard you call me Aunt Gu when you met, and thought I was really old now."
Shen Shi was silent, and at the same time faintly felt that seeing this Gu Lingyun again eight years later, it seemed that she felt a lot milder, compared to when she met at the beginning of eight years ago, she was a lot less sharp, and even her words were as cold as a cold blade. But of course he can only hide his thoughts in his heart, while saying:
"Treasurer Gu, you have misunderstood. Actually... I still remember that when I was at the butcher's house in Xilucheng, my father asked me to call you Aunt Gu, so when I met just now, I subconsciously called out, if it was rude Please also ask the treasurer to understand the offense."
Gu Lingyun quietly looked at the young man behind the desk, as if the shadow of the young man standing beside Shen Tai many years ago flashed before her eyes, and then the two gradually merged together. After a while, she suddenly sighed slightly, and then Waved his hand and said:
"Do you know that if it weren't for the phrase "Aunt Gu" you just called, it would be impossible to stand here now."
Shen Shi was a little stunned. He raised his head and glanced at Gu Lingyun. Gu Lingyun smiled and said, "So, you still call me Aunt Gu."
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, and after a slight squeeze of the corner of his mouth, he said, "Auntie Gu, do you know the current situation of my father Shen Tai? I haven't had any news from him in the past eight years. It's really..."
"He is still alive."
Gu Lingyun interrupted him suddenly, indifferently. i752
