The night is deep and the moon is hazy.
Tang Zhao was sitting on a small boat, floating on the mist-shrouded water.
There are two ways from Gongyu Hall to his Jianlu, one is to take the wooden plank road, and the other is to go boating on the water.
When he went to school, he usually walked on the wooden plank road and returned home late at night. Sometimes he would put out a small boat and drift leisurely in the shimmering waves. He would sit in the night breeze and doze off, drifting all the way home while half asleep and half awake.
"Junior brother?"
Tang Zhao was awakened from his drowsiness. When he looked up, he saw that the boat had drifted to the side of Shi Chunqing's Jianlu.
Shi Chunqing was blowing in the wind in the yard, and happened to see Tang Zhao floating over, so he said hello.
Tang Zhao stood up at the bow of the boat, got off the boat and approached Jianlu, saying, "Elder brother, are you still asleep?"
Shi Chunqing breathed a sigh of relief, turning into a streak of white air in the night, and said: "I can't sleep. I'm used to sleeping outside under the vast sky, but I'm not used to sleeping on the bed when I go home. All I can think about now is the scenery outside. Ah Zhao , people still have to go out for a walk to realize how big the world is. Look how big this lake is, right? But there is an endless sea outside. Compared with the real sea, our lake is no different from a well. "
Tang Zhao was a little surprised. He remembered that his senior brother was originally a family man, but he didn't expect that he would miss the outside world again after going out. He said: "Traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books. I haven't been out of Jiugao Mountain in three years. When I arrived at Jichun City, I forgot about the scenery outside. I am quite excited to go back to Jianzhou this time."
Shi Chunqing recalled: "Jianzhou is a good place, and Kunshan is also a paradise. Are the snow lotus flowers blooming at this time? You should study hard in the past, and you can also play with your friends. But you must also be careful. First, hide from the master's past." Creditors, secondly, don’t get involved in those complicated whirlpools.”
Tang Zhao said: "By the way, who are master's creditors? How many are there?"
Shi Chunqing said: "Wait a minute——"
He turned back to the sword hut, then turned back again, handed Tang Zhao a large book, and said: "This is the historical disputes between the world's swordsmith forces and the swordmaster world that I have reorganized. Please read more about this, Gong Yu The materials in the library are all old.”
Tang Zhao was overjoyed and thanked him profusely after taking it. Shi Chunqing took a lot more things, including flowers, fruits, and exquisite trinkets, and pushed them onto his boat and said, "I came out to bring a lot of specialties to our brothers and sisters. These are yours, and these are those of Third Junior Sister. I heard that you two have a good relationship. She doesn’t see anyone else, but is she willing to see you?"
Tang Zhao smiled sheepishly and said: "Fortunately - Senior Sister is staying at home, and I can't come and disturb her at will, but I can visit you at your door after making an appointment."
Shi Chunqing said: "That's good. You are the only one who is better than Master. It's rare for you two to fall in love with each other, so you should also advise her not to stay in the house all the time and come out to bask in the sun."
Tang Zhao smiled and said: "Sister, the sun is pretty good there."
Shi Chunqing ordered something and said, "There are also some small things for Junior Brother Bai Yu. Did you also give them away?"
Tang Zhao secretly wondered: Although Shi Chunqing took great care of his younger brothers and sisters, he mainly focused on the Zhenyu disciples. In his heart, that was the real family. Unexpectedly, he also considered the White Jade disciples this time. He said: "This is the kindness of senior brother , why not give it to them personally?”
Shi Chunqing said: "I'm just afraid that they will recognize their lives. I don't recognize them either, so I just buy them casually and divide them according to their heads."
Tang Zhao didn't expect that the eldest brother was quite shy, so he changed his mind and said, "You have to come and recognize me if you don't recognize me. How about you come to the birthday party tomorrow?"
Shi Chunqing was startled and said: "Birthday party... me?"
Tang Zhao said: "Yes, Junior Sister Hua is a good friend of mine. We get together every year on her birthday. Later, Senior Sister will also go. It just so happened that I was going down the mountain this year, and my senior brothers and sisters also heard about it, so they asked me to take advantage of it. This banquet was held to see us off, and as a result, more and more people came, and it became a big banquet. Senior Brother also came, and we were all here."
Shi Chunqing hesitated and said: "Junior Sister Hua...it turns out she is also...but I'm not familiar with her, so it would be presumptuous to go there."
Tang Zhao said: "It's to celebrate Junior Sister Hua's birthday and to see us off. Isn't it to greet Senior Brother? It's rare for our sect to get together. It would be a pity if Senior Brother is not there."
Shi Chunqing shook his head and said, "There's really nothing I can do about you."
Saying goodbye to his senior brother, Tang Zhao carried half the boatload of gifts and continued to drift forward.
Drifting through the thick fog, one could vaguely see the round mushroom top of Third Senior Sister's Jianlu. Tang Zhao's heart moved, but he still did not get off the boat.
Although he can go if he wants to, but it's so late, maybe Third Senior Sister has already rested? Just find time to visit tomorrow.
By the way, I also invited her to the birthday party.
Finally, the boat drifted to the rocky beach, and Tang Zhao got off the boat and returned to his Jianlu.
Three years later, Tang Zhao's Jianlu was still very simple. He had too little time, he had to study and open a shop, so he neglected to repair his kennel. At this time, his sword hut had become nothing more than a small wooden house. The only difference was that the windows on all sides were inlaid with colorless colored glaze, and there were large floor-to-ceiling windows on the south side, allowing sunlight to shine into the hut anytime and anywhere.
Although Tang Zhao did not decide on his mascot, he was influenced by the atmosphere on the mountain and paid more attention to the symbol of "sunshine", so he paid special attention to "lighting".
After returning to the house, Tang Zhao packed several things separately, tied bows on the gifts for his senior sisters, and then entered a room expectantly.
In his hut, there was a separate room with several large boxes stacked in it, and a clean pool in the middle. The walls of the pool are inlaid with jasper. Although the water is shallow, it looks rippling and smells slightly fragrant, like clusters of orchids blooming in the sun.
Tang Zhao first put a large handful of freshly picked petals into the water, and then threw them into the jar.
"Come out, Sister Xian."
Gudu Gudu...
Gu Shen
The fairy rises.
In the hazy brilliance, the fairy was very different from before. She no longer had blond hair and silver eyes, but ordinary black hair and black eyes. She was wearing a flying fairy bun, elegant silk, and graceful grace.
This is the look Tang Zhao came up with after discussing with the fairy.
Just as Tang Zhao thought, as the number of investments increases, the fairy will become more humane every time she comes out. In the past three years, Tang Zhao has continued to use glasses, and the fairy has become more agile and can communicate with Tang Zhao.
It's just that the fairy seems to be just a messenger of the glasses and the pool, not the master of it, and more ignorant, as pure as white paper. She didn't know the origin of the glasses or the principle of the pool. Normally, even her memory was blank. Only when she rose up did she gather consciousness.
To put it bluntly, she is just a tool fairy responsible for collecting and giving away items.
However, as the fairy's consciousness became clearer, she seemed to have upgraded and gained more authority.
For example, she can now additionally adjust her appearance.
When she appeared in the past, her "blonde hair, silver eyes and green armor" appearance seemed to have changed in response to Tang Zhao's casual remarks in a trance when she was unconscious. It was her change, and it was not her intention to change it.
When she was able to have her own likes and dislikes, she realized that she didn't like the appearance.
But she seems to be restricted by the rules and cannot actively seek changes. Only when Tang Zhao reveals his new appearance can she give feedback. However, she could take the initiative to seek help from Tang Zhao, and Tang Zhao was willing to cooperate.
Tang Zhao had heard before that the phantoms outside the realm had different hair and eye colors from those in this realm, and he had a vague idea in his mind. In order to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, it was best not to have too special eyes and hair colors.
After they discussed it, the fairy changed into her current appearance, with her hair tied high and her dress flowing, like a flying fairy.
It looks good like this, but it has lost some of its personality. Tang Zhao always feels that there is still room for change.
"Young Azhao, is this the bitter cold roar you lost, or the bitter cold sigh you lost?" the fairy asked with a smile.
"No, what I lost was the bitter cold air."
Having said that, Tang Zhao still pointed at the fairy's left hand, meaning to sigh the bitter cold in her left hand.
This pool has its own rules, and Tang Zhao must follow the procedures. Whether he wants it or not, he must say "no."
But he and the fairy are familiar with each other, and there is always some tacit understanding.
For example, the fairy will take the initiative to give two high-end goods in different directions in both hands, and these directions are random. Due to the rules, Tang Zhao could only choose one. The fairy will give you some hints, and the items in her hand that are raised higher will be more advanced.
Tang Zhao still based on his own needs. Higher-level ones may not always be appropriate.
Furthermore...
Throwing the bottle in her left hand to Tang Zhao, the fairy continued to ask: "Young man, do you still want to see it again?"
This is asking Tang Zhao if he wants to upgrade again.
Tang Zhao shook his head - the cost of the second upgrade increased exponentially, and he couldn't easily afford it. So far, only Xuan Gong has been upgraded twice, and more others are still waiting in the queue.
After he has accumulated enough magic weapons, he will upgrade his internal strength again first.
"Ah, by the way. Sister Xian, I'm going down the mountain soon. We may have to change to a pond next time we meet. Do you have any requirements for the pond?"
This pool was built according to the taste of the fairy. It was gorgeous and wasteful. In order to build this pool, Tang Zhao spent all the renovation money. Every time I have to change the water, throw in the petals, and add incense from time to time.
The fairy frowned, as if she was reluctant to change places, and said reservedly: "You know what I like. The water surface should be wide and green. The water should be clear, preferably with fragrance, and seasonal flowers."
Tang Zhao nodded, he knew all this and said: "Where is the natural lake water?"
The fairy muttered: "It's okay. You want a place with good scenery. The lakes and mountains are beautiful. Green mountains and waterside pavilions are reflected on both sides of the lake. There are lotus and waterlilies in the water, as well as boats and lotus-picking girls. The more spiritual energy the better, it can offset your Consume it.”
Tang Zhao was confused by this. If he had known it, he would not have read those books to her. Compared to the scenery, the aura is easier to say. A place with enough spiritual energy...does the Demon Cave count?
After casually chatting with the fairy for a few words, the fairy sank down and her glasses cracked.
Tang Zhao sat by the pool and quickly picked up the magic weapon to replenish energy.
In addition to the pool, this room also contains a large number of magic weapons in the box - most of them are crooked melons and cracked dates that cannot be sold in stores and would be considered a scam if stuffed into a blind box. Tang Zhao doesn't feel distressed no matter how he uses them.
In the past few years, Tang Zhao has gradually found the balance point of erasing the talisman without damaging the base material. After absorbing the talisman, the remaining materials can be reused. Judging from the level of these magic tools, they are considered to have increased in value.
As he was repairing the cracked lens bit by bit, he suddenly heard the sound of water, and Tang Zhao turned around in shock.
The fairy rose again.
