"Although I'm not a human being, I'm not a monster, okay? I don't harm people." After thinking for a while, Shen Yi finally retorted.
"But have you seen contract beasts like you wandering around on the streets?"
"..."
Shen Yi thought for a moment, although there are many practitioners in this world, and it is inevitable for every practitioner to contract a life god, but he has never seen anyone's life god wandering around every day, except for himself. The other contracted beasts either stay in the beast offering hall, are taken into the sacred magic weapon, or stay in the master's body.
Even if contract beasts do appear on the street, their owners must be watching.
Er Sha is the type who was completely taken away by him and cannot be counted.
Contract beasts are an indispensable part of a practitioner's combat power, but at the same time, the existence of contract beasts will also bring some unnecessary worries to the practitioners themselves.
For example, if you are running around outside and are recognized by your enemies, you will be killed on the spot!
In that minute, the owner of the contracted beast was useless. It was related to the future. Of course, the practitioner would not let the contracted beast run around.
Unless you are a loser yourself, the contracted beast is invincible.
In that case, just run away.
Obviously, Shen Yi was not.
He also understood the intention of the old witch. She was just afraid of offending the Xuan-level venerable. Once this happened, he would not even have the possibility to fight back.
Thinking about this, Shen Yi asked a little irritably: "When will I return to the sect."
Tsurumi Chuyun looked directly at him for a moment, "I won't go back for the time being. I want to find Xingbao first. At least, I want to see his body."
"Hey~" Hearing the words of the old witch, Shen Yi looked at her narrow eyes, and her vertical pupils reflected her appearance, which was very strange.
And his tone also became sinister and angry.
"It's rare that Miss Chuyun has become more affectionate and righteous."
"What do you mean?" Hejian Chuyun frowned and felt displeased.
"My maid died, and I didn't even ask. I didn't see you saying that she wanted to see the body when she was dead, and she wanted to see people when she was alive. Why, now that the groom is gone, you start to care about people's lives? Aren't you quite ruthless? Ang? "
When saying this, Shen Yi's tone contained some resentment.
"..." Tsurumi Chuyun was silent for a moment and uttered a few words.
"Xingbao is different."
"What's the difference? Qiu Yu is a maid, and Xing Bao is just a groom. If he dies, he will die. At the worst, he will just have to be replaced."
"Xingbao is indeed just a groom, but at the same time he is also a disciple of the Tsurumi clan."
"..." Shen Yi was silent this time. How could he not understand what the old witch meant?
There are many practitioners in this world, but there are very few who have achieved success. There are not many strong Jing-level people. In the Tsurumi clan, the total number of Jing-level beings in the Tsurumi clan is only seventy. They are Tsurumi The backbone of a family will be gone if one is missing, and it also costs money to cultivate.
Compared with Qiu Yu, in the giant Tsurumi clan, there are too many girls who can be personal maids. Under Qiu Yu, there are countless people waiting to be promoted to become personal maids, which is equivalent to their comparison with other slaves. Superior to others.
But the death of the personal maid was nothing to the old witch.
The value of an ordinary person who cannot practice is simply not comparable to that of a powerful person of pure level.
Whether Xingbao is dead or alive, there must be a result to explain to Tsurumi.
What's more, that is a loyal guard.
He couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of the night when Qiuyu helped him take a bath while nagging her.
"I'm still waiting for you to come back and bathe me in mud..."
He became listless, stopped saying anything to Tsurumi Chuyun, turned around and left.
Seeing him like this, Tsurumi Chuyun was a little dazed. Finally, as if he had convinced himself, he said, "Okay, you want to go out and wait for a few days before I take you out for a walk, okay?"
Shen Yi turned back, a little uninterested, "Whatever." After saying that, he turned back and continued walking forward, but when he thought of something, he turned back and added: "I'll bring in more Beast Preservation Pills today."
I don’t know whether Tsurumi Chuyun refused or agreed, but he was thinking about something anyway.
When Qiu Yu was mentioned, Xuan Li's mood suddenly changed a lot.
She also understands that the two parties are now connected by a contract. Once the contract disappears, Xuan Li will have gone away.
But just when she was about to follow him and say something, the courtyard door in the distance was opened and a man walked in.
"Chu Yun, Chu Yun!"
Shen Yi looked around and saw that he knew this man. His name was Zhao Bingwen. He was the old witch's mother's brother, which was also her uncle.
Belong is an extremely important relative to the old witch.
As for how important it is?
Coming down from her parents was Zhao Bingwen.
However, Zhao Bingwen's training talent is not very good. He is over 60 years old, and he is still in the pure stage building stage. Moreover, the life god of the contract is only a D-level top grade. He has the right to speak in the Zhao family entirely because of his sister. It's Zhao Shuling.
After just one glance, Shen Yi ignored it and walked towards the animal offering hall.
When the old witch saw that it was Zhao Bingwen, she had to give up following Shen Yi and instead walked to her uncle.
"What's wrong?" She asked aloud as she approached.
Outside the door, parked was a carriage specially used for pulling goods.
Hearing He Jian Chuyun's voice, Zhao Bingwen smiled, "The head of the family heard that your Xuanli has a great need for the Yun Beast Pill, so he ordered me to send it to you..."
With that said, Zhao Bingwen pulled open the cloth on the carriage, and inside were boxes containing beast-acquiring pills, which almost filled the entire carriage!
He was stunned when he saw Chuyun, and quickly realized that he was about to interrupt Zhao Bingwen before he could finish his words.
"Uncle, don't..."
"Why..." Zhao Bingwen was pushed out of the door with confusion on his face.
But it was too late now. Shen Yi, who had already walked through the arch and his body had been blocked by the white wall, triggered the keyword, stopped suddenly, and then turned around.
When Hejian Chuyun looked back, he saw that the other party had stuck out half of his head and was looking at him faintly.
Yes, these beast-accumulating pills can't be saved.
…
Two days later, at dawn, Shen Yi came to the Gui Miao in the front yard, glanced at it, and after confirming the time, he used his senses to take out the tissue paper with writing on it from the storage space, and spread it out. Staring straight at the ground.
Ten minutes later, Shen Yi was about to put away the tissue paper when he heard footsteps approaching him. Before he could turn around to look, two boxes of Yun Beast Pills were thrown in front of him.
"Who is that person in your dream?" came Tsurumi Chuyun's voice.
After confirming who was coming, Shen Yi didn't even raise his head. The tissue paper on the ground disappeared and he replied, "What's your business?" Then he grabbed two boxes of Yun Beast Pills and was about to return to the Beast Offering Hall, but she stopped him.
"etc."
"What's the matter? Hurry up."
"Don't you want to go out for a walk? I'll take you out today."
"Huh?" Shen Yi looked at her and looked at her. Today she was wearing the same bright red dress as before, which was very conspicuous under the autumn colors.
Looking in another direction, there were two diners far away, wearing the same clothes. Listening to the footsteps just now, it seemed that they had come with the old witch before.
When he looked at Tsurumi Chuyun again, he asked: "What do you think I am?"
"What do you want to say? Are you going or not?"
After giving him one last glance, Shen Yi turned his head.
"not going."
"you……"
Two days ago, Shen Yi had no intention of going out for a walk, mainly because the old witch wanted to follow him.
What he wants is to go out alone, see the bustling city of Hengzhou, and blow the wind in the fields outside the city. If possible, he would rather fly in the air and look over the entire land.
Rather than being watched all the time, you feel uncomfortable doing anything and can't devote yourself to it, just like walking a dog.
Besides, I am not a three-year-old child.
Alas~
Shen Yi sighed inwardly. After all, he was not a human being, so it was inconvenient to live in the human civilization of this other world.
Seeing him turn around and leave, Hejian Chuyun frowned and said: "Xuanli, you have to think carefully about whether I will leave for a while in Hengzhou City. If you don't go out today, you will have no chance in the future. ”
Shen Yi's steps didn't change, and he didn't even bother to reply to her. But he didn't know what he noticed behind him, so he paused and looked back at her with a strange look in his eyes.
After looking at her clothes again, Shen Yi asked suspiciously: "Old witch, are you afraid you want to go out on your own?"
"..." It seemed that someone had read her mind, and she was speechless for a moment.
Obviously, Shen Yi's guess was correct.
Cultivation is not something that can be achieved simply by studying hard. It is like a labyrinth with complicated routes. These labyrinths have no end. There is only an extremely secret passage that leads to the next labyrinth. The entrance may be anywhere, and each level of the maze corresponds to the corresponding realm.
Diligence, talent, and luck are all indispensable.
She has been called a genius since she was a child, and her pressure also comes from this title. She dare not stop, and is afraid that if she stops, she will be surpassed by others. She can only keep taking steps to find in the maze that is unique to her. The entrance to the next level of the maze.
She also wanted to rest, but she had no reason. Two days ago, Shen Yi gave her a reason. It was just for this reason that she took Shen Yi out for a walk and relaxed herself.
In a way, she was unwilling to bear the charge of "lazy" and wanted to make Shen Yi wear all the guilt caused by "lazy".
I'm not lazy, it's just that my destiny wants to go out for a walk, and I just have to do it.
Shen Yi is very curious about this different world, and why shouldn't she be full of yearning for the colorful world outside?
Now Shen Yi didn't want to go out, she felt a little disappointed, but there was nothing she could do.
"I'm just worried that you'll get into unnecessary trouble outside. If you don't want to go out, that's fine, but are you sure you don't want to go out?"
Shen Yi looked at her deeply, thought for a moment and said, "Of course I want to go out, but I'm not used to being followed."
Hejian Chuyun looked at him for a while after hearing the words, and then turned to look at the two Zhao family guests waiting in the distance. After a moment of hesitation, she waved to them.
In order to avoid being secretly assassinated by hostile forces, a small number of children who have high hopes from the family will be protected by powerful disciples when they go out. However, after Xuanli borrowed her own power, her strength has reached the point where she can go head-to-head with Jingjie Qi Condensation Duan. To this extent, coupled with Xuanli's own terrifying magical power that can kill strong people at the level of knowledge, she doesn't seem to have anything to worry about.
Unless other families exclude those who are above the Shenwen level or even the spiritual level, but once this happens, being surrounded by disciples with pure level strength will not change anything.
When the two doormen came, she said, "You guys go back. I just went out to take Xuan Li around. I will be back soon. Nothing will happen."
The two disciples looked at each other, and one of them said worriedly: "Princess, although Hengzhou City is peaceful on the surface, there are turbulent undercurrents behind the scenes. We are ordered by the family leader to protect the princess's safety. If something happens to the princess, Both my brothers are to blame."
"Let's do this. You go to Butler Wu first. I will explain the situation to him when I come back."
"This..." The two of them looked at each other and refused to agree even if they insisted on following the eldest lady. They had to hand over their hands and said: "I hope the princess will pay more attention to safety when she goes out and come back early. If anything happens, I will crush Mingyu." I'll come as soon as possible."
"I know." He Jian Chuyun nodded, looked away at Shen Yi, signaled with his eyes, and walked out of the yard.
Shen Yi looked at her slender back from behind, the weirdness in his eyes never dissipated, and he wanted to laugh a little, but he held it back.
"Old witch, if you want to go out and play, just say so. You have to go round and round, but Sister Li..."
Leaving the courtyard and walking on the bluestone path with a fresh filter in the Zhao family's mansion, everyone passing by said hello to Tsurumi Chuyun and asked him about his welfare.
She answered calmly, or maybe just ignored it.
Walking out of the Zhao Mansion and into the urban area of Hengzhou, the hustle and bustle of people on the street gradually reached my ears. The smoke from cooking was near or far away, making the mountains in the distance disappear and appear.
The sound of forging iron, the sound of vendors selling goods, and the sound of young boy Lang Lang reading in a simple private school all combine to create the smell of fireworks.
Among all living beings, the girl in red seemed to have entered a world that did not belong to her at all.
She attracted countless eyes, some were fearful, some were amazed...
Shen Yi shook his head and followed from a distance.
The vendor yelled and skillfully opened the steamer. The rising smoke confused some of his vision. The aroma of the pasta was refreshing. A gust of wind blew away the smoke and the incense.
The branches of the golden mulberry branches trembled wildly, and the leaves, completely stained with the autumn mood, flew around like dandelions and fell into the bucket, causing ripples in the clear water.
Or fall into the window eaves, bringing back memories of the past.
Finally, it fell on the shoulders of passers-by, and I lost my thoughts.
The girl suddenly turned her head and found that there was no one behind her. She breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
"Xuanli, hurry up."
Her voice reached his ears. Shen Yi slowly watched her buy something in front of a noodle restaurant. After paying, she frowned and took a bite. She found that the taste was not bad, so she ate it with confidence. stand up.
He was a little greedy. What if he didn't enjoy the delicious food here when he came to this other world?
But looking at his body, he still held back.
There will always be opportunities in the future.
Although he thinks so, Shen Yi is becoming less and less energetic. Why is he afraid of death?
This old witch came out to play just for herself, so she took her out for a spin!
Turn, turn, turn!
In less than half an hour after being out, he saw the old witch visiting several stores, and now, she stopped in front of a tailor shop.
At a stall nearby, two men ordered wontons and asked for two empty bowls from the stall owner. One of them took out a water bag and said with a smile: "This is a gift from the boss, good peach blossom stuffed wine, come and smell it." "
"Yo~ Not bad."
"That's right, I've never been willing to drink it."
"Come on, come on."
The excellent peach blossom stuffed wine was poured into the bowl and swirled. The rich aroma of the wine spread out, making Shen Yi's nose twitch.
He wasn't good at wine, but the aroma of the wine smelled familiar.
