Volume Five Chapter 97 First Meeting
It has been more than a year since Lord Lexing came to Baoxuan Island.
Over the past year or so, he has lived a very steady life.
Because he was recommended by God King Qiongming, God Lord Lexing enjoyed much better treatment in Baoxuan Pavilion than others. However, before he showed his talent and ability in refining weapons, even though he knew that he was the son-in-law of God King Qiongming. Zou Yi, the shopkeeper of Baoxuan Pavilion, would not look at him differently, but he did not arrange for him to do those chores, but he also did not let him participate in some more important weapon refining occasions.
How could Lord Lexing be willing to be ordinary?
I have to participate in the God Island experience in the future! Before that, you have to build your reputation first. If you can attract the attention of all the powerful people, even if you can't escape the experience of God's Island in the future, you will have more chances to save your life.
And with this deity sharing his knowledge and skills in weapon refining, wouldn't he be as good as a fish in water in this Baoxuan Pavilion?
Within a month, he attracted Zou Yi's attention.
Whatever was put into his hands, he completed it quickly and well. Both in terms of speed and quality, he far surpassed others.
Lord Lexing has never met Zou Yi, and he really doesn't know that the bad old man who has been floating around him some time ago is the famous shopkeeper of Baoxuan Pavilion.
He didn't realize it until Zou Yi summoned him. However, he was murmuring in his heart, how could such a person give birth to a daughter as beautiful as Zou Ying? I don’t know which beautiful cabbage he was attracted to?
Not to mention this, in terms of weapon refining alone, Shenjun Lexing still admires Zou Yi very much. Even I have never been exposed to some weapon refining knowledge.
Zou Yi was going to take the exam to study for the Master Le Xing, so naturally he couldn't hide his secrets. However, he didn't know that when he was amazed by the Master Le Xing's talk, some of his valuable experiences were also understood by him.
Words are worthless, everything needs to be put into practice.
When Shenjun Lexing refined the prototype of a magic weapon with a power that amazed everyone, everyone praised him, and he passed Zou Yi's test perfectly.
Then, he entered the treasure house.
This treasure house is the core of Baoxuan Pavilion.
The treasure house has a small number of people, but it has a clear hierarchy. In addition to the big shopkeeper Zou Yi, there are also three junior shopkeepers, eight senior clerks and six junior clerks.
Lexing Shenjun is the sixth boy.
Needless to say, the responsibilities of the big shopkeeper are three. The three small shopkeepers and the eight big clerks all have different priorities, but the six junior clerks are divided into the inner office and the outer office.
The distinction between the inner and outer offices has nothing to do with power and status, only what is needed for refining weapons. The boys in the inner place basically cannot leave the treasure place, and many external affairs will be handled by the boys in the outer place.
Fortunately, Shenjun Lexing was assigned to the outer place.
In addition to him, there was also a rather pretty woman and a tall, thick-looking man.
After introduction, the woman's name was Hua Jingyi. She actually participated in the previous competition for the goddess, but was eliminated early. However, Shenjun Lexing was still a little surprised.
When the big man said his name was Zhuang Jiashi, Lord Le Xing almost lost his temper. This man was incredible! He is the only disciple of King Xiaoyao, the second disciple of Lord Mingri! More importantly, he has another identity, that is, the son-in-law of the big shopkeeper Zou Yi and the husband of Zou Ying!
Such a person can only be regarded as a junior clerk in the treasure house. This shows how terrifying this treasure house is and also proves the importance of Lord Le Xing in the minds of shopkeepers!
Lord Lexing muttered again in his heart, "Father"
The kiss looks like this, and the husband looks like this, how pitiful!
A month later, Lexing Shenjun changed his view.
It’s true that people can’t be judged by their appearance!
He is worthy of being a weapon-refining prodigy trained by the Four-Finger Divine King himself. Zhuang Jiashi's accomplishments in weapon-refining even put Lord Le Xing to shame.
Of course, Shenjun Lexing is not bad either.
As time went by, the two people actually started to cherish each other, and they almost fell out of love after meeting each other so late!
There is nothing else to say about Zhuang Jiashi. He is just a bit stupid. He looks stupid and does things without thinking.
When the three young guys finished refining an embryo together, Zhuang Jiashi ignored the presence of the girl and got on top with his bare arms. The beating muscles all over his body, coupled with his superb weapon refining skills, made Hua Jingyi look at it. Get your heart cleansed.
This is due to his character. He has no other thoughts about Hua Jingyi. For him, only refining weapons can help him find the meaning of survival.
Little did he know that his willfulness would hurt the audience present.
And this actually gave Shenjun Lexing an advantage.
Shenjun Lexing wanted to find Zou Ying more than once, but he hesitated every time. Later, after forming a deep friendship with Zhuang Jiashi, he did not dare to think nonsense.
Hua Jingyi was suffering a lot, but Shenjun Lexing captured her heart with just a few moves of his mouth. You know, he was good-looking, and his weapon-making skills were on par with Zhuang Jiashi's. The only difference was in his cultivation. In terms of realm, this point is not important to Hua Jingyi. When she embarks on the path of weapon refining, she does not need to lean on anyone.
It didn't take long for Lexing Shenjun and Hua Jingyi to have a lot of ambiguities. Of course, they also knew that this matter needed to be kept strictly confidential, otherwise their future would be in jeopardy. With extreme caution, they experienced a different kind of excitement.
…
"Lexing, let's go out together."
There wasn't much going on that day. The three of them finished their work early, and Zhuang Jiashi went out to collect some kind of accessories as usual.
This is a rare opportunity. Lexing Shenjun and Hua Jingyi have already had a tacit understanding. Who knew that he would come here?
Hua Jingyi was very unhappy, and the corners of her mouth almost turned upward.
Not only her, but even Shenjun Lexing did not dare to refuse his request casually. After all, given his identity, the two of them did not dare to treat him as an ordinary boy.
Lexing Shenjun secretly squeezed Hua Jingyi's little hand and walked out of the counter.
The two people came out of the treasure house and headed east. With the help of the flying magic weapon, they arrived at their destination not long after.
This is a mountain range with dense forests.
At the foot of the mountain, a house is surrounded by green trees, accompanied by the sound of spring water, which makes people feel really happy.
Approaching the house, Lord Lexing immediately felt several spiritual thoughts approaching from around him, but they quickly disappeared, and he immediately became cautious.
Entering the uncovered door, Zhuang Jiashi shouted uncharacteristically respectfully: "Miss Qianxia, Zhuang is here to get accessories."
"Wait a minute."
A pleasant response came from the back room.
Zhuang Jiashi immediately pulled his horse back to the advancing Lord Lexing, and the two waited patiently.
After about half an hour, the door of the room opened with a creak, and a woman dressed in coarse cloth walked out. Although she was dressed in ordinary clothes, her elegant temperament could not be concealed.
Lord Lexing was a little stunned. Why did this face feel familiar? But he couldn't figure out when he had seen it.
The woman named Qian Xia raised her eyes and saw Lord Le Xing. She was slightly startled.
He quickly regained his composure, threw a storage ring towards Zhuang Jiashi, and said, "It's all here."
Zhuang Jiashi took it without looking at it, and immediately threw the storage ring he had prepared, which contained the other party's reward.
"Zhuang, say goodbye!" Zhuang Jiashi said, cupping his fists.
At this moment, a little girl who was only three or four years old rushed out from the door.
"Mom!" the little girl shouted and threw herself into Qian Xia's arms.
Lexing Shenjun immediately stiffened up. For some reason, he always felt that this little girl was closely related to him. This was strange. This was the first time he saw this mother and daughter. How could he have such a strange feeling?
"No!" Qian Xia responded, picked up the little girl, and disappeared through the door.
Zhuang Jiashi pulled the slightly stiff Lexing Shenjun, and the two left quickly.
…
"Brother Shi, what about Qian Xia..." On the way, Lord Lexing couldn't help but ask.
"Lexing, you can't act recklessly. You can do that to Jingyi, but you can't do that to Miss Qianxia!" Zhuang Jiashi warned meaningfully.
What is that?
Lord Le Xing did not react for a moment, but after a moment, a chill rose in his heart.
It seems that the rough man in front of me is not ignorant! Walls have ears. From now on, I and Hua Jingyi will have to be more careful.
"Brother Shi, you don't want to..."
"rest assured."
Lord Le Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He knew Zhuang Jiashi's character. If he wanted to report him, he would have reported it already. He didn't need to wait until now to show that he was not kept in the dark.
With a smile, he quickly changed the subject and asked: "Brother Shi, it seems that Miss Qianxia is not a monk?"
Hearing his tone become more respectful, Zhuang Jiashi narrowed his eyes and replied: "Le Xing, you are wrong. Miss Qian Xia has extraordinary strength, and her cultivation is only temporarily imprisoned."
"oh."
"Don't worry about her. I guess you also feel that there are many strong people around that place, right? Even if Miss Qianxia has no power, it is difficult for ordinary people to get within three feet of her."
"By the way, Brother Shi, who is Miss Qianxia? There are so many strong people protecting her, and yet our treasure house has to pay a high price to purchase accessories from her?"
"It's better not to inquire about some things!" Zhuang Jiashi looked serious and continued: "Speaking of which, the quality of this kind of accessories is really best made by Miss Qian Xia. The price is a bit expensive. But there is a principle of expensiveness, her ancestors were masters of weapon refining, and her attainments in weapon refining are no worse than ours."
"This is really unexpected." Shenjun Lexing sighed with emotion.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I have something else to tell you."
"ah?"
"I'm going to Mingzun Island in a while. I may have to stay for a long time. From now on, you will be responsible for the affairs here. Remember, don't make any other ideas. Also, in the future, you will be responsible for the affairs here. Your level of weapon refining is enough for two people from outside. I would suggest that the shopkeeper does not need to be so anxious to add more people. However, it is not that easy to find suitable people, so don’t make a big fuss!"
Shenjun Lexing was ashamed. He came to Zhuang Jiashi out of a kind reminder.
"One last thing. After all, we have known each other for so long. Before I go to Mingzun Island, I want to invite you to be a guest in my house. I have made an agreement and cannot refuse."
Lord Le Xing's lips moved, but nothing could be said.
There really is no way to avoid it!
