Miss Shen Su was neither able nor able to resist her fate. Fortunately, the Shen family who made the arrangements for her was a major force within the Wuling Sect, and the Wuling Sect was also famous in the entire spiritual world. , since she can't choose her favorite husband, marrying the son of the Zong family means that her family has not treated her badly, so Shen Su accepted it.
However, Miss Shen never expected that the marriage between the two families was settled, but she had not decided who she would marry in the future. Only after she followed the Shen family and Zong Shuqiong to the Wuling Sect did she vaguely guess the reason. Senior Zong's two sons are twins. It seems that Senior Zong has not yet decided which of his sons he will betroth himself to.
At the beginning, it seemed to Miss Shen that it didn't matter whether she chose or not. These brothers were twins. They looked exactly the same. Although they were not handsome, they were at least talented and heroic. They were all rising members of the Zong family with unlimited prospects, so she felt that there seemed to be no choice.
When she first met the two brothers Zong Shang and Zong Xi, Miss Shen Su was still a little shy and flustered. Her face was red and her heart was pounding, and she didn't even dare to raise her head. The first thing she wanted to do after settling down in Zong Shuqiong's cave was The thing is to find a way to distinguish the two brothers. After all, she can't tell the difference between the two just by looking at their faces. If this is the case in the future, something embarrassing might happen one day.
Miss Shen is a thoughtful woman, and she can tell the difference between the two brothers within a few days, which is actually quite simple.
The one who has a lively personality and comes up to talk non-stop when he sees him is Zong Xi, the younger brother of the two brothers. It seems that this person has a fiery and cheerful personality, and his words are interesting, but he is a little reckless; while the other one behaves more He was more steady, but spoke very little, as if he was also a little shy. Although he could restrain himself, his eyes were full of admiration when he saw her. He was Zong Shang, the elder brother of the two brothers. Well, he did. He acts like an elder brother, and the younger brother sometimes uses words to nudge him, but he is not angry.
If Miss Shen was asked to choose between these two people, she wouldn't know which one to choose. Seeing that these two people seemed to be very good, it was really embarrassing. If they were not twins but only children, then combine the two of them. How wonderful it would be if all the advantages were gathered into one person, thus eliminating all kinds of troubles!
When we first met and got along, we didn't know each other very well, but as we were together for a long time, we were able to see each other's strengths more thoroughly, and at the same time, our shortcomings gradually became apparent.
In the eyes of Miss Shen, her younger brother Zong Xi, who often came to chat with her, was indeed a very enthusiastic person, and his eyes were blazing when he looked at her. However, after being together for a long time, Miss Shen found that Zong Xi's temperament was somewhat The publicity was too much, which made Miss Shen somewhat uncomfortable. What made her even more uncomfortable was Zong Xi's excessive intimacy with her. This seemed to Miss Shen who had not yet finally determined who her husband was. The most undesirable.
As for Zong Shang, as time went by, the number of times he came to talk to Miss Shen became less and less. For a while, Miss Shen thought that Zong Shang had lost interest in her, which made her a little unhappy. She didn't understand, but she soon gave up her worries because she could always find the hidden passion in Zong Shang's eyes when he looked at her. In Miss Shen's opinion, Zong Shang was a steady and reserved person. For such a powerful force as the Wuling Sect, Zong Xi Zongshang is an out-and-out dandy in the Wu Ling Sect. It is appropriate to have a character like Zong Shang, unlike Zong Xi who is always domineering in front of others. Therefore, Zong Shang gradually fell into Miss Shen's eyes. Of course, she would not show this. After all, the time has not yet come and it is not up to her to decide.
Later, Zong Xi let it slip, and Miss Shen found out why senior Zong Shuqiong had brought her into the Five Spirits Sect in advance. He actually used himself as a reward to encourage the two brothers to compete with each other to see which one could build the foundation first. Which one will you be betrothed to!
When she heard this statement, Miss Shen didn't know what to think. On the one hand, the father of the two brothers really admired her, otherwise he would not have entered into this marriage with the Shen family, but as the father, he took it upon himself to If you can't decide which of his sons to betroth yourself to, you can think about it slowly. Why treat her as an object for the two brothers to fight over? This made Miss Shen unhappy. When Zong Shang said this, he was still very happy and did not notice the change in the expression on Miss Shen's face. His cultivation level was better than Zong Shang's and he improved faster. Therefore, under Zong Shang It seems that this charming Miss Shen must be his Taoist companion, so he behaves too casually in front of Miss Shen and talks about everything. Sometimes when Zong Xiu sat opposite Shen Su and looked at that flowery smile, he would still think about some things that he could do in the future. The key is that Zong Xiu's city couldn't express his emotions and anger, so what was in his mind was on his face. More or less, it can be shown, and it can be imagined that in Miss Shen's view, these are almost equivalent to offense and blasphemy, so Zong Xi's status in Miss Shen's heart began to slowly slip.
Looking at Zong Shang at this time, Miss Shen also knew that in terms of spiritual talent and qualifications, Zong Shang could not compare with his brother, but Zong Shang's hard work and the introverted and deep look in his eyes when he looked at her The admiration made Miss Shen understand that Zong Shang had been working hard to get her.
The brother was a little exaggerated and reckless, even a little dissolute and frivolous, while the elder brother was deep, restrained, dignified and prudent. With this comparison, Shen Su himself could distinguish between the two brothers.
Naturally, she hopes to be with Zong Shang in the future.
But the reality is that Zong Xi is close to building the foundation, while Zong Shang still has some time to go.
In other words, this guy Zong Xi is likely to become her Taoist companion.
And this is what Shen Su doesn't want.
But it seems that things are developing in a direction that Miss Shen does not want.
so what should I do now?
When Zong Xiang was getting closer and closer to building the foundation, Shen Su could read the anxiety, unwillingness, annoyance and other emotions in Zong Shang's eyes. She even found that Zong Shang looked at Zong Xi with more and more emotions in his eyes later. Too much coldness!
Miss Shen is from a noble family and can be considered as a cultivator. Even though she has not experienced many things, she has seen more things than these two brothers. She recognized Zong Shang right away and the killing intent jumped out of his eyes. !
This man actually wanted to kill his own brother for his own sake!
No, Zong Shang must not be allowed to do that. Miss Shen understood that while secretly cursing Zong Shuqiong for this bad idea, she also knew deeply that if there was a scene of brothers fighting here, she would not be able to gain a foothold. That’s it!
After thinking about it for a while, Miss Shen finally decided to intervene in this matter. She was originally sent to the Five Spirits Sect by her family because she had no choice. Now, although Zong Shuqiong's idea was a bad idea that turned the two brothers against each other, it was not good for her. But there is still a glimmer of hope.
One day later, as if they met by chance, she met Zong Shang and said a few simple words:
"Although the river flows slowly, it can reach far. The waterfalls are noisy and dry under the sun. If my brother can understand my intention, please practice quietly and don't think of other things..."
This is equivalent to Shen Su straightforwardly expressing his feelings to Zong Shang. After hearing this, Zong Shang immediately realized that his jealousy towards Zong Xi had been seen by this smart woman. He secretly blamed himself for being careless and he understood this better. The woman he admired immediately had more affection for him. Thinking of this, he trembled slightly and looked at Shen Su deeply.
Miss Shen simply put aside her reserve, smiled sweetly, and said:
"Brother Zong, please rest assured and practice. If you are lucky enough in the future, I hope to travel around the world with Brother Zong."
In this way, Miss Shen calmed Zong Shang.
Then it was time for her to deal with Zong Xi.
…
That was a few days before Zong Xi hit the foundation-building bottleneck. At that time, he got the foundation-building pill from his parents. Whenever his feeling of breaking through was strongest, he would take it immediately and he could really hit it. This bottleneck barrier.
Those days were also the most irritable and irritable days for Zong Shang. Although Shen Su expressed his affection to him in private, the two could not make a lifelong commitment privately. After a period of time, if Zong Xi really became a foundation-building monk, then Miss Shen would never have a chance to be with him again, but...there seemed to be something hidden in Miss Shen's words last time, and Zong Shang couldn't think of Miss Shen. Is there any way to solve this matter? The only hope is that Zong Qi's attack on the foundation failed, but the chance of that is not high. After all, during the process of Zong Qi's breakthrough in the foundation building, their parents were I will definitely stay by and nothing will go wrong.
And Zong Xi was the most arrogant in those days. He had been waiting for this day for a long time, and now this critical and important day was coming.
It was during those few days that Zong Xi saw a scene that he would never forget.
Because Zong Shuqiong has two sons, he has not accepted disciples for the time being. His plan is to wait until both sons have established foundations before accepting disciples. Outside his cave, there are three small buildings. Originally there were only two. His two sons lived there. Later, after Shen Su entered the Wuling Sect, he built a unique and elegant small building for Shen Su next to his cave. The three small buildings were not far from each other.
That day, Zong Xi felt depressed from practicing, so he went out for a walk. When he walked out of the room, he was first attracted by a warm, elegant and fragrant breath from the tip of his nose. This breath made his chest beat for no reason. After searching, he determined that the source of this breath was Shen Su's small building. He found that the window of Miss Shen's boudoir was not closed tightly. Through the crack in the window, he saw something that made his chest pounding. A scene...
That Miss Shen must have just taken a bath, and was sitting in front of the makeup mirror in a white and wide dress. Normally, her black hair was carefully tied into a bun, but now it was all wet and scattered on her face. Behind her head, Miss Shen did not notice Zong Xi peeping outside the window. She was combing her hair carefully with a small jade comb, tilting her head sideways. Although the white dress on her body looked wide, it must have been after she took a bath. Or it was worn only when going to bed. It was very close-fitting. Following Miss Shen's movements, the white dress quickly adhered almost completely to her body, showing off her exquisite figure...
On weekdays, the girls Zong Xi saw were all carefully dressed, with elegant make-up, and she was very beautiful. But he had never seen such a beauty after bathing like a hibiscus, not to mention that at his young age, he only had He felt that his body was like a big pot, with a fierce fire under the pot that was constantly burning, and what was boiling in the pot was his hot blood. His lips felt hot while breathing, and he couldn't help but stare blankly. She took two steps toward Miss Shen's small building. When she was about to push the door in, she suddenly became alarmed. Only then did she realize that she was about to build the foundation. After the foundation was built, the beauty in this small building would not be the same. Is it your own?
In this case, why rush this moment?
Suppressing his anger, Zong Xi finally did not push the door open and enter.
But the scene he saw just now still lingered in his mind. In order to calm down, he walked around the garden a few times. In the end, he couldn't help but came to Miss Shen's door again. At this time, he passed the Miss Shen's figure was no longer visible through the crack of the window. She must have finished washing up. Only then did he knock on the door.
As expected, Miss Shen was her usual self. When she saw it was Zong Xi, she invited him to come in and sit down. The two talked for a while, but Zong Xi was the one who kept talking. He kept hinting to Miss Shen that he was about to build a foundation. He couldn't remember what Miss Shen's reaction was. In short, he wanted the other party to understand that she was about to become his.
A few days later, Zong Xi began to make a breakthrough.
With his parents by his side that time, everything seemed to be going well since the beginning. If nothing else happens, the Wuling Sect will soon have another young foundation-building monk.
I want to say here that a monk should not have any random thoughts when his cultivation level breaks through. If he is distracted and restless at the critical moment of breakthrough, it is impossible to break through the bottleneck, let alone breaking through such an important task as foundation building. critical moment.
But at Zong Xi's critical moments, Miss Shen's graceful back in that pure white dress always appeared in his mind, with her wet, dark hair swaying in front of him, and her elegant fragrance. The smell, what exactly is that smell? He and Miss Shen have sat across from each other many times and talked, but he has never smelled that smell. She did use some fragrant powder rouge, but why is that smell like this? What about intoxicating? At that time, she was combing her hair after bathing, so all the powder and rouge should have been washed off, so there was only one possibility...
That charming scent of elegant fragrance... is Miss Shen's body fragrance...
I don't know how long later, when he woke up from so many thoughts and distractions, what Zong Qi saw was the displeasure on his mother's face and the gloominess on his father's face. At this time, his heart suddenly fell straight down. !
His attempt to attack the foundation this time... failed!
