When Zhao Shun was asked, she was slightly startled and replied: "This is shopkeeper Shen's private matter, how can I ask in detail?"
When it comes to treasures, there are many taboos. What the monks hold, how they get it, and what it is used for are all very private matters. They are never easily disclosed to others. If they rashly ask about this topic, even It may also arouse hatred and even lead to death.
Shen Qingkou thought she had hinted clearly enough, but Zhao Shun had no intention of being curious at all, so she could only smile slightly and said slowly: "It's my fault that I didn't misjudge the person. Fellow Taoist is really a person of noble character."
In fact, there is something in the words.
With her acting like this, how could Zhao Chun not know the deeper meaning? He might not have been at all curious, so he took advantage of the situation and asked, "Then what do you want to do with this spiritual sword, Shopkeeper Shen?"
"It's not the spirit sword itself, but the person behind the spirit sword!" Now that he knew Zhao Shun's straightforward temperament, Shen Qingkou stopped trying to be mysterious and stated the reason straightforwardly.
"Shopkeeper Shen, did you say he was a master?" The person the spiritual sword was directed against was naturally the weapon refiner who forged the sword.
Shen Qingkou nodded and revealed all the reasons in one sentence: "Although Master Cheng is from Kaifeng City, he really likes to travel around the mountains and rivers to gain knowledge, and it is rare to meet people in the city. However, a few months ago he claimed that he would reduce the number of people in the future. Travel, live in the city, accept disciples and teach Taoism. After hearing this news, I came to Kaifeng City with my little sister."
When talking about her little sister, her eyes became extremely gentle: "My little sister is devoted to the art of refining weapons, and she also has talents. If she can become a disciple of Master Cheng this time, it will be her wish. I will also It gives me a lot of peace of mind.”
"However, there are many people who seek Taoism and become disciples, and there is only one position for disciples. It is hard to say that there will not be people with extraordinary talents among them. Therefore, I am not sure whether Master Cheng will accept the little girl as his disciple. I can only borrow more clever ways. Here’s a way to help her.”
Having said these words, Zhao Chun could already guess that the key to this method lay in her spiritual sword.
Sure enough, Shen Qingkou's next words talked about Shengyun Pavilion: "Master Cheng is extremely talented in weapon refining, but his temperament is very weird. I heard that he can make people angry with just a few words, so he has very few friends. I After searching for a long time, I found out that the master of Shengyun Pavilion and him have been friends for many years."
"But for no reason, the master of Shengyun Pavilion naturally didn't want to speak for my little sister. In the end, he couldn't withstand my repeated pleas and finally revealed something to me."
"Master Cheng doesn't attach any importance to any external objects. What he loves most is the magical tools he forged himself. If I can get one of these objects and give it to my little sister, present it to me on the day of choosing a disciple and say good words about it, I don't say it will definitely work. But if you make him happy, the chances of success will definitely increase by three to four points.”
"However, most of the magic tools he cast have been owned by others. I haven't heard of any being wandering outside. After searching for several months with no results, I finally found my Taoist friend."
A teacher is a person who teaches, learns and resolves doubts. If the little girl of the Shen family can become a disciple of Master Cheng, with such a master with superb skills and a promising future, her path to weapon refining will undoubtedly be smooth in the future.
The thousands of strands of black iron that were only at the highest level of the Xuan Order, compared with the future path of her relatives, naturally became "mere" in her words.
However, Zhao Shun carefully studied her words and felt that things were not as simple as she said.
Shen Qingkou in front of her was the same as her. His cultivation was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and his aura was not even very stable. It could be seen that he had just entered the middle stage.
The owner of Shengyun Pavilion can buy a large property in Kaifeng City, and has the qualifications to have known Master Cheng for many years. Regardless of his noble status, even in terms of cultivation, he must be above Fenxuan. Such a person As a character, Shen Qingkou not only meets him at will, but also pleads with words to make him reveal his friends' preferences.
Her cultivation cannot support what she does, and she relies only on the people behind her.
Zhao Chun's eyes were as bright as fire. Shen Qingkou tilted his head slightly and looked away from her. After a long time, he said with a serious expression, "My younger sister and I come from the Shen family in Jianyang City. Our grandfather's name is Qishan."
Jianyang City is one of the giant cities in Yuzhou. It is located in the southeast of the state and is very close to Zhongzhou.
Zhao Shun had never heard of the name of the Shen family, but the reputation of the Qishan people was probably known to everyone in Yuzhou.
This strong man in the true infant stage hates evil as much as he hates it, and kills demons whenever he encounters them. Not only did he clear out many demon caves in the three states of the human race, he even went deep into the ancient wilderness to slay demons.
The evil monks hated him to the core, but were afraid of his superior strength, so they had to secretly make friends with his enemies. When the Qishan people entered the wild ancient land, they besieged them and ordered the enemies in the three states to break into their homes and kill their wives. Of the children, only the youngest son, who had no spiritual roots, survived after being hidden by a servant.
After this incident, the people on Qishan Mountain were haunted by inner demons, which hindered their own cultivation realm. It was judged that it would be difficult for them to enter the externalization stage in this life. The surviving young son could not go far on the path of mortal cultivation, and eventually passed away before him.
Shen Qingkou said that she and her younger sister were both grandsons of people from Qishan Mountain, and since they were young, they could only be the daughters of the youngest son who had survived by chance.
As a powerful person in the true infant stage, he forced a Xuan-level weapon refiner to accept his granddaughter as a disciple. No matter how aloof and unruly Master Nacheng was, he would not dare to disobey him.
What's more, the people from Qishan are still the top figures in the True Infant Stage. No one dares to challenge him under the Venerables in the External Transformation Stage.
With this kind of support, it is still necessary to do everything possible to obtain the magic weapon cast by the master, just to increase the possibility of worshiping the master. This kind of joint may still happen to the people of Qishan.
Shen Qingkou knew that the disaster in his family had been widely known for a long time, and it was not a secret, so he simply said bluntly: "My grandfather felt that he was the cause of the tragedy, and he was extremely guilty. He thought that if he had the strength of the External Transformation Venerable, he would be able to stay A clone is sitting at home, so Xiaoxiao doesn't dare to break the rules."
"For this reason, he searched for a way to break through day after day, and became a person haunted by external demons. After his father passed away, he became more and more afraid of losing me and my little sister, and pinned his hope of breaking into the venerable us."
"My talent in cultivation is mediocre and I cannot teach him his techniques. However, my little sister is different from me. After just a few years of practice, my cultivation level has improved rapidly."
"But our ambitions are not here. I only want to open up trade routes, become a merchant, and open Fengde Zhai all over the rivers and mountains. My younger sister is also interested in refining weapons and wants to be a master of this way."
At this point, Zhao Shun finally understood the internal reason. In the eyes of the Qishan people who regarded their strength as crazy, whether they were engaged in business or refining weapons, they were not as important as advancement in cultivation, but other things. Because of this, it became a sideline practice in his mind, which was not as good as his intention.
"My grandfather is unreasonable in the eyes of others, but he is the most soft-hearted towards us. This time my little sister and I left home, it was also the result of him turning a blind eye. It's not that I can't ask him to force Master Cheng to accept my little sister. Being a disciple is just like this to him..."
Shen Qingkou took a deep breath and kept his eyes on the table: "It's really too cruel."
