There were footsteps outside the quiet room. Yu Yao hurriedly broke away from his arms, turned her back to face the window lattice, straightened her appearance slightly, and took a deep breath to calm down her chaotic mind.
The footsteps stopped outside the door. A person knocked twice with his fingers and said, "Junior Brother Wei, I am Shi Chuandeng. I have something to discuss with you. Do you have time?"
So With Shi Chuandeng's cultivation, it was not difficult to find that there was someone else in the quiet room. He insisted on disturbing him. Obviously "something happened" was not an excuse. Wei Shiqi remembered Qingming's reminder and knew that he was most likely here for the three-legged cauldron. Come, open the door immediately and invite him in.
Yu Yao took a step forward, and when she was about to meet her uncle, Shi Chuandeng turned a blind eye to her, with a clear look of ridicule in his eyes. He cupped his hands and greeted Wei Shiqi. Yu Yao was stunned for a moment, and said knowingly. He quickly stepped out and closed the door behind him.
Walking along the plank road, she unknowingly arrived at Xiongzhen Cliff. Looking at the rolling mountains and the blazing morning glow on the horizon, she felt both aggrieved and annoyed. Shi Chuandeng was a willful and willful person, and his attitude reminded her that an indescribable feeling was tumbling in her chest. Although she was unwilling to think about it or admit it, she knew her situation clearly, in the eyes of the head, in the eyes of Grandma Sun, and in In the eyes of Shi Chuandeng, and in the eyes of countless fellow disciples of Liushi Peak, the Yu Yao of the past was dead, and the one who survived was just a plaything. Her fate was controlled by Wei Shiqi's hands. Whether it was life or death, honor or disgrace, it all depended on her. His thoughts.
Is this fate?
Yes, she has feelings for Wei Shiqi. The experiences she spent with him in her memory were long or short. Looking back now, people can't help but smile. She was like herself at that time. , there are no extra thoughts in her heart, it can be described as pure. Even if she reluctantly accepted the arrangement of fate, subconsciously, she always felt that she would be his partner and be able to walk hand in hand with him on a long journey. But, does he also have the same idea?
He said to leave it to him to think about it, and he promised to help him solve all the problems, but people will change... Men are unsympathetic, unfaithful, and like the new and hate the old... The easier it is to get something, the more it will be. Don't know how to cherish... Countless thoughts came and went. She groaned in pain and closed her eyes tightly.
Since when did Wei Shiqi become farther and farther away from him, so far away that he could only see his back? Since when did Shi Chuandeng have to politely say, "We have something to discuss, do you have free time?" She began to be wary and worried about gains and losses.
The year-end gambling game is his stage. In the night that just passed, he became the leader of the second generation disciples of Liushi Peak. Even if he cannot compare with Chu Ge and Du Mo, no one dares to look down on him.
Yu Yao didn’t know that there was a woman named Qin Zhen on Xianyun Peak in the far west of Kunlun. She had realized this many years ago and wanted to walk beside him one day. Next, she worked hard to change herself.
If the gap between people is too big to a certain extent, relationships cannot be maintained. This has nothing to do with original intentions, but only human nature.
Yu Yao liftsLooking up, the boundless view is far away in front of my eyes.
In the quiet room, Wei Shiqi smiled and said: "I wonder if Senior Brother Shi is here, do you have any advice?"
Shi Chuandeng did not beat around the bush and said calmly: "Junior Brother Wei is here. I won three prizes in the gambling at the end of the year, including a three-legged cauldron, which is of great use to me. I wonder if my junior brother can part with it, I am willing to exchange it."
He took off one from his waist. I just shook the storage bag and poured out seven or eight bits and pieces, including a dead branch, two porcelain vases, a vermilion jade box, a dozen insect eggs as big as chess pieces, a jade slip, and a jade slip. Brown hand beads.
"This is all the belongings I have on hand." Shi Chuandeng picked up the items one by one and briefly explained a few words to him.
That inconspicuous dead branch was obtained by killing a Xuanmen monk in his early years. Its purpose is unknown. It is probably a raw material for alchemy. Xuanmen alchemy is different from that of the Kunlun Sect, and the raw materials used are multi-purpose. Plants and trees rarely use demon elixirs, and their techniques are very different, with little in common. He asked many people for advice, but no one knew the origin.
The two porcelain bottles contain elixirs. One is Huang Chi Dan, which is very helpful in restoring vitality and breaking through bottlenecks. The other is Butian Dan, which is very effective in healing wounds and removing poison. These two kinds of elixirs are so precious that even direct disciples cannot keep one or two at hand.
The vermilion jade box is made of red jade and is called a red jade box. Red jade is the essence formed by putting red sandstone into an alchemy furnace and smelting it with earth fire to remove the waste and retain the essence. It is suitable to be made into a jade box or gourd-shaped container to support spiritual insects and has many benefits. Smelting red jade takes a long time, impurities are extremely difficult to remove, and the color is impure and often tends to be purple. The Poison Sword Sect often uses purple red jade gourds to store golden-headed centipedes. This kind of vermilion red jade box is of high quality and can be found on Liushi Peak. Not common either.
Those eggs as big as chess pieces are the eggs laid by the Grimace Moth, obtained from the Barbarian Bone Forest. The Grimace Moth is a famous poisonous insect on the list of spiritual insects, ranking before the Green Iron Bee. Iron bees are naturally resistant to poisons, but they shy away from grimace moths.
The jade slip itself is not a rare thing. He won it through a bet with an elder of the Poison Sword Sect. It lists some famous insects on the spiritual insect list, only fifteen or sixteen The species is not complete, but what is commendable is that each insect has its habits, characteristics and breeding experience. The grimace moth is included. The jade slip is paired with insect eggs and red jade box, which complement each other and are extremely rare.
As for the string of beads, they were made by Jianan. They were round and jade-like. They passed through the hands of many people and were passed down to Shi Chuandeng. Gannan is the top grade of agarwood. Ordinary agarwood needs to be lit. If you warm it with your hands, Ganan can exude a cool and sweet scent. It has the miraculous effect of dispelling evil spirits and calming the mind. It is a key to understanding the sword technique and breaking through bottlenecks. auxiliary things.
Wei Shiqi listened patiently to his explanation, thinking that he had gained a lot of experience, and finally said with a smile: "Senior brother, do you have any suggestions?"
Shi Chuandeng thought about it and suggested using jade. Jane, the insect eggs and the red jade box were exchanged for the cauldron he had on hand, and the string of Ganan bracelets were just a bonus.
Wei Shiqi said: "I am very interested in raisingThe spirit insect is not interested. Would you like to exchange the three prizes that senior brother got from the gambling game? "
This statement was expected. Shi Chuandeng pondered for a moment and said with emotion: "To be honest with my junior brother, the three lottery items must be handed over to the master's door, but I can pick one first - junior brother, look. Whichever one you win, just take it. "
Wei Shiqi took out the three-legged cauldron and pushed it in front of him, saying: "Change the wrong gold and jade ball. "
Shi Chuandeng hesitated and asked: "Junior brother, do you know what is in the jade ball? "
Wei Shiqi shook his head and said with a smile: "Because I didn't know, I changed it and took a gamble. ”
“Junior brother’s idea is different! "Shi Chuandeng was astonished. He left the gold and jade ball behind, took the cauldron and left. From the beginning to the end, Wei Shiqi neither asked for a price nor asked about the origin and purpose of the three-legged cauldron. Shi Chuandeng was not interested in this. I admire him a lot and feel that I can make friends with him
Of course, the most important reason for making friends with him is that he showed strength beyond his peers in the year-end gambling game.
