Chapter 3: juvenile

Crossing the threshold, the noise rushed from Shen Shi's side like a tide. On the horseshoe street where the first floor of the sky is located and also the busiest and busiest in Xilu City, there is a constant stream of people flowing in the street.
On both sides of the spacious street, when you look at it, there are rows of shops with open facades. I don’t know how many people shuttle between these street shops. The first floor of Tianyi is on this long street. The largest and most impressive place, no matter the historical passenger flow or the high lobby of the store itself, this is true. And the only thing that can compete with Tianyi Building is that there is another building with an antique style and imposing vibe. It seems that it is not on Tianyi Building from any perspective. under.
That is the two leading shops in Xilu City and the first floor of Tian. On the large and heavy door plaque, there are three big characters in golden lacquer: Shenxianhui.
Standing at the door of the first floor of the sky, Shen Shi naturally glanced at the lively Shenxianhui branch across the street, with a somewhat complicated expression in his eyes.
Shenxianhui, this is a thunderous name, unlike Tianyilou, which is only famous in Xilu City. In fact, Shenxianhui can be said to be the most powerful giant chamber of commerce in Hongmeng realms in history. Its influence covers To all the sites known to the human race, the so-called "Hongmeng city and ninety states, there are fairy associations everywhere", and this has never been done by any business in the past, even in the days of the Heavenly Demon King Court. Over.
This Chamber of Commerce has a long history and a long history. Legend has it that as early as tens of thousands of years ago, the era of battles between the two races of humans and monsters was born in the flames of war. It was a human race that was once bullied and insulted by the Hongmeng hundreds of races, and it was the six human races who were still immature and weak at the time. The saint provided strong support.
And for thousands of years, this mysterious and powerful Chamber of Commerce has not been ups and downs like many cultivation sects, but has been developing silently and quietly but rapidly. Today, there is a city in the ninety states of Hongmeng Lord Realm. In all important cities, there is almost always a branch store of the Fairy Association, which accumulates wealth day and night. And the incredible credibility accumulated over ten thousand years makes the Fairy Society the first choice for all monks in the cultivation world to buy and sell goods wherever they are.
Corresponding to such a terrifying financial power, although the Fairy Society has always been doing business in a low-key manner, among the realms of Hongmeng, except for the eleven famous schools of the "Four Zheng and Seven Profounds" in the realm of cultivation, which is now in the sky, Almost everyone, whether it is a large number of casual cultivators or a distinguished family from an extraordinary background, privately acknowledges that this immortal society is actually the twelfth powerful force in the Hongmeng Lord Realm.
There are even many people who believe that with such terrible financial resources, ubiquitous tentacles, and pervasive eyeliner, even though it is a chamber of commerce, the masters of cultivation enshrined in it are almost innumerable, and the family of cultivation circles who have good ties with them More like stars. Based on this calculation, I am afraid that the secret strength of the gods will exceed the incomparable four positives and seven profounds on the surface.
However, this statement is naturally just a talk of some boring people after dinner, at least on the face of it, the Immortal Society has never revealed any obvious intention to interfere with the power of the cultivation world. For a long time, the Shenxianhui only made money in a low-key manner, and it was against this background that, facing such a powerful and almost unmatched opponent of the Chamber of Commerce, Shen Shi’s father, Shen Tai, was almost alone. It is a miracle that the strength of this Xilu City has forcibly turned the first floor of the sky into a big shop that is indistinguishable from the gods.
Of course, the scope of this "miracle" is only limited to the city of Xilu City, and when viewed in the vast Hongmeng realm, it is of no importance at all. But looking at the countless big cities and small towns of Hongmeng, how many people can do this? Therefore, Shen Tai, a short, fat man, has been a low-minded man over the years, but he has been increasingly valued by the Xuan Yin Clan. Even with Shen Shi has also benefited. The news from the Xuan Yin Clan will give him an extra place to worship. Practice under Xuan Yin Men.
This treatment sounds nothing special, but as long as you look at the streets and alleys, those casual practitioners who are running for one or two spirit crystals every day, you will know that there is a powerful cultivation. How important it is for the sect to be a backer.
Xuanyin Gate is regarded as the most powerful cultivation gate in Yinzhou. Although it is really necessary to care about it, it is still far behind the top cultivators in the realm of cultivation, such as Sizheng and Qixuan, but in Yinzhou's huge realm of millions of miles, It is powerful enough. At the same time, Tianyin Mountain is also a treasure land of Lingshan. In the depths of the mountain, there is a spiritual vein that is most valued by the cultivation world. It can absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and then condense and produce spiritual crystals. This alone is stronger than those of casual cultivators. went.
"Will the gods..." He slowly withdrew his gaze from the plaque, glanced at the street outside the gate of Tianyilou where he was, and saw the crowds coming and going under the steps beside the door. , Standing or sitting, there are also a few men who look like casual cultivators standing by the door, looking lazy, chatting with each sentence, looking at the crowds on the street, or deliberately or unintentionally towards the entrance of the first floor of the sky People passing by took a glance.
Shen Shi smiled, but walked straight over.
Of those four or five guys who seemed to be casual cultivators, the three of them who were sitting against the wall didn’t mean to get up. They were two men standing and chatting, one with a beard and one younger. Among them, the man with the beard smiled: "Go go, don't come to cause trouble, we are all idlers."
Shen Shi sneered and said, "Come on, all of Xilucheng knows that you are the guards of the first floor of the sky, and you pretend to be casual repairs every day, so you are not tired."
The business on the first floor of Tianyi is so big that it earns countless spiritual crystals for the Xuanyin Clan every day. How could Xuanyin Clan not value such important sources of money? Naturally, some cultivators must be sent to take care of them, or they would have been taken care of. People are wiped out.
The younger man laughed and said, "Little guy, you can say it lightly. We are not like your father who is a lucky boy, and countless spirit crystals live in our hands every day. This is not too poor. I have to come here to take care of your dad’s door and guardian, so I can earn some spirit crystals and go back to the mountain to practice."
Shen Shi curled his lips, "Bah", and laughed: "Don't be bullshit, you don't know about the things in this building. Every spiritual crystal you earn must be turned over to the sect. My father is just a guy who works for the sect."
The four or five men laughed out loud, but no one refuted Shen Shi's words. The bearded man laughed and said, "Well, you are not bad, didn't you hear about it a few days ago? This stinky boy is going to enter the door easily, just like those children of the family who have been vassalized for hundreds of years?" He shook his head and sighed, as if recalling something back then, with a bit of self-deprecation Yi, said, "I think back then, in order to worship the sect, the pain I suffered..."
Shen Shi smiled, folded his hands at these men, smiled and said, "So if you come to Tianyin Mountain in the future, you have to ask your elder brothers to take care of them."
The bearded man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hurry and go, your father is here, let alone those disciples of the Ning Yuan realm who are not on the stage, they are the elders of the high spirits. Guys, one by one is not to be polite to you. I still count on you to take care of me in the future!"
A burst of laughter came from behind him, and the three or four men laughed out loud, with a gentle and kind expression. Obviously, Shen Shi has been quite popular here in the first floor of the sky for so many years, even if these are already in the Xuan Yin Clan. The brave and diligent monks who stepped into the Ning Yuan realm are also familiar with him.
Shen Shi was chatting with the disciples dispatched by the Xuanyin Clan to secretly guard the first floor of the sky, and suddenly heard a voice coming from a short distance behind him, saying, "Hey, isn't this the little stone of the Shen family?"
Shen Shi turned to look, frowning, and saw several people standing behind him. One of them was a teenager about his age, with a fair face and a little taller than him. He was followed by a few small servants. Characters.
The corner of Shen Shi's mouth twitched, the expression on his face faded, and he said, "Master Wang, what's the matter?"
The young man surnamed Wang looked good at his family, and he naturally carried an arrogance. At this moment, he looked at Shen Shi with a smile, and then smiled: "Little stone, we haven't seen him for a long time, but This year the sect opened a mountain to accept disciples. I heard that you also received the grace of the sect. Can you get started without taking the exam?"
Shen Shi took a deep look at him and said, "This matter hasn't been written yet, I don't know, but how about you, prince, will you be selected for the Xuanyin Cultivation?"
The young man who has gained this name proudly said: "Our Wang family has served for the sect for more than two hundred years, so we are naturally qualified. And this year we got more than one quota, there are five people in total." Stretching out his palm, his five fingers waved vigorously in front of Shen Shi.
Shen Shi glanced at these fingers, the muscles around his cheeks seemed to tremble slightly, and then said: "Awesome, amazing; admire, admire."
The prince snorted and squinted at Shen Shi. It seemed that he looked down on this guy in front of him. He turned his eyes and smiled suddenly: "By the way, do you remember the black mastiff in my house?"
Shen Shi's face sank slightly without speaking. The prince looked at his expression and suddenly became happy. He laughed and said, "I still remember the two of us when I was young, and the Sun family, Li family, and Ou family playing together. At the time, the black-haired mastiff followed all day long. As a result, once this big dog bitten madly, and instead of chasing other people, he just bit you. Oh, was it terrible to chase at that time?"
Shen Shi glanced at him with a faint expression on his face, and said, "Yes, that time I was terrified."
The prince laughed loudly, with a proud expression, only to hear Shen Shi ask again, and said: "How is that big dog now?"
The prince smiled, shrugged, and said: "Two years ago, a black-haired mastiff slipped out of the house and disappeared. I don't know if I ran with which bitch?"
Shen Shi said, without saying anything, the prince smiled and said: "Little Stone, after entering the sect, we have children from other families, who are all considered brothers in the same sect. Although your family is thinner, it is still It’s nothing, it’s good to be able to enter the sect. Then it will depend on who of us practice faster."
Shen Shi smiled slightly and said, "Okay."
The prince gave him a meaningful look, then he suddenly laughed up to the sky, then turned and walked away, Shen Shi stared at him for a moment, then turned around, there was no irritation on his face, and smiled at the guys. Said: "The child quarreled and made all the big brothers laugh."
The guys all laughed. They glanced over there with their beards and smiled: "Oh, is that the young master of the Wang family?"
Shen Shi nodded, and said, "Yes, the grandson of the long house." After talking with these few, he said that there was still something to leave and walked towards the long street ahead.
Behind him, a few guys withdrew their gazes, still standing lazily and sitting outside the first floor of the sky. Among them, the younger man smiled and said, "It seems that the Wang family looks down on the little stone a little bit."
The beard sneered, with a bit of disdain, and said: "The Wang family is not only relying on seniority to look down on the Shen family and father and son, they don't want to think about the status of the first floor today, just rely on them... eh?" Before it fell, his beard frowned suddenly, as if thinking of something.
The young man wondered: "Brother Chen, what's the matter?"
The face of the Chen-surnamed bearded face suddenly showed a strange look, and did not immediately answer the question of the junior brother, but first turned and glanced in the direction where Shen Shi was leaving. After looking for a moment, this Turning his head, with a strange expression on his face, he said: "I suddenly remembered something..."
The young man said: "What's wrong?"
The beard gave a dry smile, and said: "Two years ago, the little stone suddenly took me to the street to hang out. Later, I saw a dog in an alley. The little guy said he wanted to eat dog meat and pestered me. They slaughtered it, then lighted a barbecue, and the two had a dog meat feast together."
As soon as the words came out, the remaining few people looked wonderful, and no one spoke for a while. After a long while, the young man curled his lips, smiled bitterly, and said, "This year's kid, amazing... "
(There is still a chapter at seven in the evening.)
