Chapter 43: World

Shen Shi unknowingly became a little uneasy, even lightened his footsteps, and approached quietly, but saw the starfish squatting on the ground, his hands resting on his cheeks, his expression gloomy, his eyes staring straight down in front of him, he didn't know what he was looking at. .
Shen Shi craned his neck and glanced at the ground in front of her, and saw that there was nothing surprising except a piece of sand. At best, there was a bunch of green weeds growing next to her. In addition, even the tiny ants. I didn't see one.
"Cough cough", Shen Shi coughed twice behind her back.
The starfish girl did not move.
Shen Shigan laughed and squatted down beside her, and said, "What are you looking at?"
The starfish snorted and said, "I made an appointment with a sea turtle to meet today, but I haven't come yet. I don't know if it's a lazy sleep or slow legs, it's really annoying!"
Shen Shi laughed, turned his head and looked around, and said, "Turtles, are there turtles on this island? I haven't seen them."
Haixing turned her head and glared at him. Shen Shi was a little guilty, and the laughter suddenly became smaller. Haixing said in an angry manner: "I don't know who said that Chenshi came yesterday, and he said well that others would sleep in!"
Shen Shi stayed for a while and shook his head categorically: "I definitely didn't say that you would sleep late, just ask what time is better, besides..." He thought for a while, glanced at the starfish, and whispered, "You just Did you say'big words'?"
Starfish was startled and seemed to think about it, then nodded: "Well, that's the word, my grandfather taught me. After all, why are you late? Do you know how long I have been standing here?"
Shen Shi's heart jumped, looking at the starfish's pretty face with a bit of anger, it was obvious that he was waiting here for a long time and was depressed. At this moment, he felt a little ashamed. After all, he looked full of confidence when he agreed yesterday, but today he really overslept.
But of course you can't say that in front of the starfish. Seeing the angry mood of the red clam girl, she was afraid to turn her head and leave after hearing this. Shen Shi's thoughts turned around a few times, and there was no time to think of other excuses in a hurry, so he sighed and expressed his disappointment.
Haixing glanced at him, frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and said: "Actually, when I rushed here in the morning, I heard a...bad thing, and felt a little sad, because I was late."
Starfish said, "Huh?", looking a little curious, and said: "What's wrong?"
Shen Shi sighed and said, "Do you still remember the friends who came with me yesterday. One of them has a good relationship with me, and his name is... Sun You." At this point, Shen Shi was apologetic. He muttered to himself, "I'm sorry, first help me top the tank", and then coughed twice, concealing the unnaturalness on the face, and said,
"The two of us were at Baihetang in Herring Set yesterday. Neither of us found any good tasks. Good things like feeding beasts, picking shellfish, and alchemy were already occupied by others, so we came to Hongbang Village together. Take a look here. He also told me at the beginning that he didn’t like the shrimp peeling here, so he went back to Baihetang to take a look again. But I found out this morning that he had a relative here and stole a spirit beast. Senior Brother Dian's doorway, got a place for animal feeding."
After that, Shen Shi patted his forehead and shook his head: "When I heard about this, I was really uncomfortable. I thought about it and delayed some time, but you were late here. I'm really sorry. , Haixing. I will definitely come on time in the future."
Haixing originally had some aversion on her face, but after listening to it, her expression gradually eased a lot. When Shen Shi finished speaking, she thought for a while and suddenly sneered and said, "Your friend, isn't it? The vassal family under the Lingxiao Sect?"
Shen Shi was startled and said, "Yes, how did you guess it?"
The starfish stood up from the ground, but stretched his waist with open arms. The clothes were close to the body, showing a faintly exquisite curve. Then he smiled suddenly, his expression was cheerful, and he lifted Shen Shi as well, and said with a smile: "Okay. Ah, listen to me, the spirit crystals earned by peeling shrimps in our Red Clam Village are not necessarily slower than them. At most, the people in the Lingxiao Sect will be worse than them in the future, which is nothing."
Shen Shi became more weird. He walked behind Haixing to the white beach by the village, and at the same time asked: "Haixing, I didn't understand what you said just now. What do you mean?"
At this time, Haixing was holding the big prawn cage in his hand, looking a little bigger than half of her body, but there was no difficulty in her expression, and she looked at ease. He looked at Shen Shi and seemed hesitant. After a while, he curled his lips and said, "You should know that in Baihetang, some of the good tasks are the important entrances of the High Sect, such as the Dantang, Zhentang, and Spirit Beast Hall. ?"
Shen Shi nodded, and said, "Yes, what's the problem with this?"
Starfish led him to the beach, and six or seven feet away in front of them, there was clear water, and the sound of rushing waves came gently. The sea breeze blew her black temples and fluttered in the wind.
Starfish put the shrimp cages on the beach and said: "As long as you get these seemingly inconspicuous tasks, you can get into the eyes of these important halls first. In order to do these basic tasks, the seniors above will naturally I will teach you some basic things first, and at the same time I will naturally get to know the seniors in the door. Feeding animals and alchemy are not short-term tasks. They are all done for a long time. In this way, you will have to talk to a few halls. The relationship between the predecessors of the mouth is deeper."
Haixing glanced at the sea in the distance, stretched out her hand to draw her hair that was a bit tossed by the sea breeze, and said faintly: "As time goes by, when the important halls of the Lingxiao Sect are to absorb new blood, will they first think about it? With these new disciples who have been around for a few years? The human relationships are all close to them, not to mention, will the Spirit Beast Palace be looking for disciples who feed the spirit beasts who know the nature of the spirit beast or someone who knows nothing about the spirit beast? What the pill hall wants to collect is the disciple who knows the alchemy heat and knows all kinds of medicinal materials or the people who know nothing about alchemy? No one can say the slightest objection to these matters."
The smile on Shen Shi's face gradually became silent, and it took a long time before he gave a strong smile, and said, "I didn't expect you to know so much."
Hai Xing sneered, and said disapprovingly, "These things, that is, there are so many things in your human race's heart that I came up with it. Those vassal families have followed Ling Xiaozong for hundreds of thousands of years, and how many children and students have worshipped in the sect. Next? I heard from Grandpa. Although the elders of the Lingxiaozong seem to want to change this situation, there are so many things, big and small, how can they be changed so easily?"
Shen Shi shook his head, and said: "So, the tasks assigned by these important halls in the sect will be given to those from the family?"
Haixing said: "It's not 100%, but 70% or 80% should be there. You think, as long as you first enter the threshold of these important halls, you will be successful in cultivation in the future, and you will naturally receive various assistance and a bright future; if you are talented If you don’t have enough cultivation, you can still have a close relationship with these senior teachers in the sect in the future even if you leave the sect. Even outside the sect, you can also work for these halls on behalf of your family, purchase medicinal spirit mines, buy and find spirit beasts, etc. There are many, but in short, there are many benefits."
Shen Shi smiled bitterly, and said: "A small whiteboard, a few humble tasks, there will be so much inside information, I really can't think of it." For a while, he was really sad, and asked casually. , Said, "Are all the halls in the High Heaven Sect like this?"
Haixing thought for a while and said, "That's not true. There are also a few unpopular halls. I heard that even new disciples can't look down on them. The door can be a sparrow."
Shen Shi was taken aback for a moment, and then passed the words she had just said in his mind, and then said: "Did you say'Men Ke Luo Que'?"
Starfish stunned, "Oh", and said, "Am I wrong, Monroe Sparrow."
Shen Shi rolled his eyes, and then slowly said every word:
"No, it's the door-but-Luo-bird."
Haixing followed his words, practising a few words in a low voice, and then, like him, slowly said word by word: "Men, Ke, Luo, Sparrow...Haha, that's right!"
Shen Shi looked at her smile, suddenly feeling better inexplicably, he laughed, and said, "This time I am right."
Starfish clapped her hands and looked happy. At this time, she seemed to be showing a bit of girlish innocence. She smiled and said: "My grandpa taught me a lot of weird words, but it sounds pretty good. "After that, she seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and said quickly, "Oh, I'm talking too much with you, so you should hurry up and peel the shrimp, otherwise you will not be able to kill a few ghost-faced shrimp today. "
Shen Shi also woke up, chuckled, leaned over and walked to the side of the shrimp cage, reached out and picked up the sharp knife hanging on the side of the shrimp cage.
Starfish stood aside, but she couldn't help it, and said, "But, I don't think your friend can do it either. Leaving aside you and ran to the Spirit Beast Palace, aren't you angry?"
Shen Shi shook his head and said, "He said, he also helped me fight for it, but the brother who knows his relatives said that there can only be one quota, and he can't do anything."
Starfish curled her mouth, her beautiful lips seemed to be more beautiful because of this trace of disdain, and said to herself: "Who knows, anyway, those family members have better family backgrounds, and there are more ways than ordinary people like you."
Shen Shi sighed and said, "This is the world."
Haixing frowned and asked, "What is the world?"
Shen Shi smiled slightly and did not answer her. He reached into the shrimp cage and caught a ghost-faced shrimp with its teeth and dancing claws. Suddenly remembering what he said earlier, he smiled and turned his head and asked: "Right, you said that there are still beings in the Lingxiao Sect. Are people despised and deserted?"
Haixing nodded and said, "Yes."
Shen Shi said: "Which one is it?"
Haixing said: "Shutang."
Shen Shi thought for a while, and with a somewhat uncertain tone, he hesitated: "You mean the one who painted..."
Haixing waved his hand and said, "It's the magic hall that is useless to draw talisman all day long!"
Shen Shi was dumb for a moment for some unknown reason.
