The Shi family mansion is located in the southeast of Yishui County.
This is a three-entry courtyard with carved beams, embroidered pillars, green tiles and red eaves. It has tall lintels, spacious rooms and rigorous layout. At first glance, it is the residence of dignitaries.
Shi Xiaohan was sitting under the sycamore tree in the courtyard, holding a book and quietly
She was resting at home today, so she did not apply makeup or tie her hair in a bun; Her black hair is like ink dye, hanging down to her waist, forming a sharp contrast with her fair face.
She was not wearing a uniform. Instead, she was wearing a lavender pleated coat skirt. A pair of snow-white slender feet were exposed under the skirt, as exquisite as porcelain.
"Xiaohan, what are you reading?"
At this moment, a burly middle-aged man strode into the yard with a hearty smile on his face. Said to Shi Xiaohan under the sycamore tree.
Hearing this voice, Shi Xiaohan closed the book, raised his head, and frowned slightly: "Father, didn't I just tell you not to affect my reading?"
The middle-aged man immediately raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and said innocently: "Don't be angry, Xiaohan, I'm just a little curious."
This middle-aged man is Shi Xiaohan ’s father Shi Lei.
He holds the position of "Thousand Households" in Laizhou Prefecture, with an official rank of fifth rank, and can be regarded as a senior member of the guard.
He rarely took a few days off recently, so he took this opportunity to return to Yishui County to visit his precious only daughter.
After returning home, Shi Xiaohan never gave him a good look.
The reason why Shi Xiaohan was in a bad mood was simple - because her father came home suddenly, which prevented her from going to Gu Xu's celebration banquet to eat and drink, and missed countless delicious dishes.
You know, Gu Xu’s stingy guy treats guests to dinner, which is a rare event that only happens once in a hundred years.
But she was too lazy to explain to her father.
This made Shi Lei feel uneasy, not knowing what he had done wrong to offend his precious daughter.
Shi Xiaohan snorted coldly, raised the book in his hand, and showed it in front of his father.
On the cover of this book were written a few big words:
"Luojing Food Treasures".
"Shizhenlu" is a book recording delicious food.
"Xiaohan, if I remember correctly, haven't you been studying Jiangnan cuisine recently? Why are you suddenly interested in Luojing's food again?" Shi Lei felt a little confused.
Shi Xiaohan stood up, stood barefoot on the fallen sycamore leaves on the ground, clasped his hands on his chest and replied: "The place in Yishui is too small for this heroine to show off her skills. I want to do it as soon as possible Break through to the third level and strive to be transferred to the capital next year to participate in bigger cases and solve more ferocious ghosts."
"You are worthy of being my daughter!" Shi Lei immediately said to her. Thumbs up, "Since you have such an idea, my father will help you as much as possible——"
"——No," Shi XiaohanShe pouted and shook her head repeatedly, "Don't interfere, I don't want to go through the back door! I don't want to be regarded as a well-connected person who only relies on my father to get the upper hand! This heroine must rely on her own hard power to participate in the promotion After the examination, he was promoted to the capital in an upright manner!"
"Well said!" Shi Lei applauded, "I have learned from my father! My heroine is aboveboard and never bothers to be a fool. Something happened!"
Shi Lei said this, but what he was thinking in his heart was: Silly girl, you don't understand, background relationship is also a part of strength. Nowadays, young geniuses are emerging in endlessly. I heard that a monster with a third-level talent has appeared recently. You may not be able to defeat such a person. When you actually go to take the assessment, I still have to go and say hello to the examiner in private.
Looking at the girl who was getting longer and more beautiful in front of him, Shi Lei was silent for a long time and then said: "Xiaohan, I have to discuss an important matter with you. You are seventeen years old now. You can be considered a big girl. I heard that there are many young talents in the capital. When you get there, be sure to see if there is anyone you like. My father will definitely try his best to arrange a good marriage for you——"
"—No, don't mess around." Shi Xiaohan shook his head again, interrupting him.
"Why?" Shi Lei asked doubtfully, "Those girls of your age were already engaged last year. If we keep waiting like this, all the young talents will be robbed.
“Could it be that...you already have someone you like? "
Looking at Shi Xiaohan's sulking look, Shi Lei had a bold guess in his mind.
"No! I don't! Don't talk nonsense! Shi Xiaohan immediately denied it, "This heroine cares about all the people in the world and doesn't want to indulge in the love between her children!" If the ghosts are not eliminated, this heroine will never have a family! "
Shi Lei sighed silently.
He and his first wife have been in love for many years. After his wife passed away, he never renewed their relationship.
Shi Xiaohan is their only one. Bloodline.
For more than ten years, he has held his daughter in the palm of his hand, reluctant to beat her, reluctant to scold her, treating her as a treasure, and always obeying her.
But... with her daughter. With his stubborn character, he felt that the Shi family might be extinct.
“Oh, how should I convince her? "The Qianhu adults in charge of Laizhou Mansion have never felt such a headache.
But Shi Xiaohan didn't care what her father thought.
She shook her clothes and sat back on the ground. , and continued to read "Luojing Food Treasures"
She imagined that when she arrived in the capital next year, she would take Gu Xu to visit the streets and alleys and taste all the delicious food. p>
They then work together to solve a few big cases - Gu Xu is responsible for using the brain, and she is responsible for using the knife, achieving the reputation of "Yishui Two Heroes" and making everyone look at them with admiration.
This way. Just thinking about it makes people excited.
…………
Three days later, the spiritual spell "Solar Eclipse" was delivered on time.Gu Xu’s residence.
This is a thin booklet.
On its title page, there is also a brief introduction.
Gu Xu learned that the creator of this spell was a monk named Xue Jiong from the Exorcism Department a hundred years ago. Because he made a mistake during his practice, his meridians were broken and he could no longer use it. Cultivation Yuan.
So he created his own "Solar Eclipse" technique and worked hard to practice his spiritual consciousness.
Many years later, he was on a par with the fifth realm monks based only on his spiritual consciousness.
Although there may be factors in the opponent's underestimation of the enemy...
But this case is enough to prove the powerful potential of the divine consciousness spell.
So, Gu Xu opened the book and began to hone his spiritual consciousness according to the steps introduced in the book.
If his previous spiritual consciousness was an uncarved rough stone.
Then what he has to do now is to rely on the magic in his hand to repeatedly polish the rough stone, remove impurities, and carefully carve it into a clear and pure jade.
This is also an extremely risky process.
If you are not careful, you may cause permanent mental damage and become an idiot.
Time flies by.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.
Gu Xu closed the book and stood up.
At this time, his eyes were dark and deep, without any light.
He has initially mastered the technique of "Solar Eclipse".
