as big as World, nothing is nonexistent.
Not long after experiencing the incident of the Eight Heavenly Dragons, I met another master gifted with supernatural powers in Wanshui City in the Northern Sui Dynasty.
If the Vajra Dragon Elephant Body hadn't just been hidden from the outside and some residual abilities were still there, he wouldn't have been able to discover Xiao Xi's miraculous features.
Compared with Babu Tianlong, Xiao Xi, who sells braised noodles, is the same as him. She has digested all the magical powers and used them for her own use. She just doesn't know what is so strange about her magical powers.
Xiao Xi put down the braised noodles that Shen Li ordered, and was about to go back to the kitchen to help when she heard the young man ask: "Is there any garlic?"
"Some, some, but they're not cheap."
"A few cloves of garlic, price is not an issue."
"Please wait a moment, sir."
From the subtle look on Xiao Xi's face, he knew that she had recognized him.
Back in the kitchen, Xiao Xi picked out the garlic of better quality and said softly: "Grandpa, that young master recognized me."
"How can you be so sure?"
"That night, he attacked me, and his attacks were shattered by my body-protecting energy."
Grandpa Sun smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Grandpa has protected you for seventeen years and can protect you for another three years."
As soon as he finished speaking, the chef grandson immediately shut up and stopped talking.
Xiao Xi peeled the garlic, looked up at the young man standing at the door of the kitchen, and asked with a sweet smile: "Can't you wait, sir?"
"My family has an old saying that if you eat noodles without garlic, the taste will be half as good. It would be a pity not to have garlic to accompany this mouth-watering braised noodles." Shen Li said in a mixed joke.
Grandpa Sun chopped the meat sauce and said with a smile: "There is such a saying in your hometown? If you eat noodles without garlic, the taste will be half as bad?"
"If it's true, I've been listening to it for half my life."
"Haha... You naughty boy, you are the same age as my Xiao Xi, but you look like an old fritter who has lived for thirty or forty years."
"Hey, the old master said it was wrong. I am called a young man."
"What a young and mature man. I won't charge you for today's garlic. People in Wanshui City don't grow much garlic, so the price is quite expensive. You have to bear with it."
Xiao Xi peeled four cloves of garlic for him, washed them with water and handed them to the young man.
When the young man took the garlic, he held her hand in front of Grandpa Sun. Xiao Xi said, her face turned red and her hand was tightly grasped by the young man, unable to break free.
"Grandpa~" Xiao Xi exclaimed.
Grandpa Sun didn't look at it and said with a smile: "Young man is just joking with you."
"Grandpa is right, it was just a joke with Xiao Xi."
Although today's world is very open, being as offensive as Shen Li's is not open. Xiao Xi can definitely take it to the government and accuse him of robbing a girl.
Xiao Xi suddenly saw her grandfather ignoring the offense of being a disciple. She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She quietly held the rusty dagger with her other hand.
"Is the young man seriously injured?" Grandpa Sun asked.
Shen Li respectfully replied: "Just kill yourself with one sword."
"Self-destruction? Ha, you must have used heretical techniques?" Grandpa Sun disdained.
"If the heretical technique is used correctly, it is also an aboveboard technique."
"To put it lightly, there are so many seniors in the world, why are they divided into the heretical and the Guangming Avenue? It's not that the heretical techniques harm others and benefit oneself, and they only pursue the word "fast". The Guangming Avenue is slow and steady, but it is solid step by step."
Grandpa Sun put down the kitchen knife, glanced at the young man holding his granddaughter's hand tightly, and said in surprise: "That's weird, that's weird."
"To be honest, in order to survive, I had no choice but to kill myself with a sword." Shen Li said with a smile.
"You're such a cruel kid. You've finally reached a state where you can cut it off at the drop of a hat. How did you fall to this level?"
"Pseudorealm."
"Ouch, that's hard to handle." Grandpa Sun shook his head and asked with a smile, "How long are you going to take advantage of my granddaughter?"
"Just want to ask one thing."
"Forget it, if you ask, I won't answer."
Hearing Grandpa Sun's categorical reply, Shen Li Zhiqu let go of Xiao Xi Rouyi, cupped his hands and asked, "Dare you ask me your name?"
Xiao Xi let go of the dagger, hummed shyly, and turned around without answering.
"Sun Xi, when she was born, it was in the morning light."
The divine power bowed again: "Junior, please take your leave."
"Boy!"
"Junior is here."
"How did you notice it?"
"Since he can teach such an extraordinary granddaughter, my grandfather must be a senior master who hides in the city."
"Ha, so simple?"
"It's that simple."
"You kid, this braised noodles meal is free of charge."
"Well, the seniors are appreciating the noodles, and the juniors don't dare not accept the meal. Can I have another bowl?"
"..."
"Get out of here, don't act like a good boy to get an advantage."
Shen Li returned to the dining table dejectedly and ate a mouthful of garlic and a mouthful of noodles.
Sun Xi's voice was like a mosquito, and he timidly complained: "Grandpa~"
"Xiao Xi, what do you think of this kid?"
"grandfather!"
"Haha... Where are you thinking? I'm asking about your realm."
Seeing that the noodles in the pot were cooked, Sun Xi picked the noodles into the bowl and whispered: "Maybe... maybe he is in the same state as his granddaughter."
"It is rare to see a Vajra master at such a young age in the world." Grandpa Sun sighed, "Last time my old friend came to visit, I talked about several Taoist talents. They are all talented people who only appear in the world. You guys This generation is much more exciting than ours."
"He said...he fell into hypocrisy." Sun Xi argued.
"For proud men like you, the Pseudo Realm is just a temporary place to stay. When the time comes, you can easily escape."
"Grandpa's words are so strange."
Grandpa Sun smiled ambiguously: "Grandpa is getting older, so I would forget about seeing you get married early, but I feel uneasy."
"Grandpa doesn't mean what he says!"
"Oh? What's wrong with that?"
"A few days ago, grandpa clearly wanted me to make a career in the world!"
"Haha... Xiao Xi, there is no conflict between starting a family and traveling in the world. Besides, if you and your wife travel together in the world, aren't you a couple of gods?"
"I...I don't talk to grandpa anymore."
After covering the noodles with meat sauce, Sun Xi left the kitchen with the braised noodles.
She didn't dare to look at Shen Li's face. Although the young man was the most handsome and unrestrained man she had ever seen, she was not the flirtatious woman in Yanchun Pavilion who fell in love with anyone she saw. She had her own plans.
Grandpa often said that she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. That’s right, she is sweet and sweet on the outside, but her heart is really strong.
Sun Xi returned to the kitchen and suddenly felt something was wrong, "Grandpa, why do you think so highly of him?"
Grandpa Sun asked with a smile: "Want to know?"
"Um."
"His sword."
Sun Xi looked outside and saw that the young man's sword was ordinary. From the outside, it looked like a bad sword bought from a blacksmith shop for dozens of copper coins.
With such a mediocre sword, why does Grandpa value the young man?
"This sword is called Zhu Yan, and it is the sword of the deputy chief of Jiange Mountain in Western Shu. Since it fell into the hands of the young man, it must be the successor of my old friend who I have never known before."
"Is... is she withered beauty on the list of famous swords in the world?"
"That's right, it's the withered beauty with no evil reputation."
"Grandpa, can't he be mistaken?"
"Grandpa, how often do you miss someone's sword?" Grandpa Sun smiled.
At the same time, Shen Li, who was bald and making braised noodles, secretly thought that when he arrived in the kitchen, the unattractive old man actually looked at him. His eyes were not on other people, but on his withered beauty.
After presenting the sword to him, the deputy mountain chief said that if an old friend saw the sword, he would give him some face. The old man who hid in the city and concentrated on making braised noodles was probably one of the deputy mountain chief's old friends.
The encounters in life are indeed elusive and unpredictable.
He didn't eat two bowls of noodles, but three bowls of noodles. The diners in the shop widened their eyes when they saw it. The portion of braised noodles was already huge, and he could eat three bowls of noodles. This kid wouldn't have one in his stomach. A loser, right?
Sun Xi looked at him strangely, then bent down to clean up the clean dishes.
"Let me do it."
I want to hold her hand again!
What a bastard!
Sun Xi quickly took a few steps back as if he was electrocuted.
Shen Li didn't feel embarrassed, so he carried the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen, and quickly washed them several times.
"When will the young man leave?"
"There was some cause and effect last night. If it is resolved smoothly, we should leave tomorrow."
"Where to go?"
"First go to Qifeng City and then to Luojing. There are a lot of things to do. I guess we have to go from Luojing to Jixia Academy..." Shen Li paused and then said with interest, "In the meantime, I may have to go north. In the grassland, I heard that there are several extremely talented young swordsmen staying in the grassland to compete with each other."
"You are such a restless master." Grandpa Sun said with a smile.
Neither of them mentioned anything about Fai Zhuyan. It was enough to get the point across and there was no need to point it out.
"In a few days, I will have to send Xiao Xi to go out and make a living. After all, a small noodle shop is not her destination."
"If you meet Xiao Xi by chance, I will take care of her."
"Hehe, the world is about to belong to you young people. Boy, be careful when fighting with others. Only when you are alive can you be considered the pride of heaven. When you die, you can only become a stepping stone for others."
"Junior, please keep this in mind."
After wiping his hands, Shen Li left without looking back.
Sun Xi saw his back blending in with the pedestrians and breathed a sigh of relief. This guy is really a gangster and a scoundrel!
Grandpa Sun said: "The young man is chivalrous, tender and strong, and he is a perfect match for you. It's a pity... it's a pity..."
"Who does Grandpa think I am? I don't want to get to know a protégé like him." Sun Xi said with a blushing face.
Grandpa Sun continued: "It's a pity that such a young man must have many women by his side. Otherwise, I would send you on the road with him now."
"..."
Sun Xi's face was as red as a burning furnace, angry and ashamed, speechless.
When Shen Li returned to the inn, the waiter came up to him and said, "Sir, there are two people who have been waiting for you for a long time."
"oh?"
As he came back, the two young men stood up and clasped their fists together and said, "Mr. Shen, on the order of General Zhao, we hereby invite you to go to the house to have a talk."
"There's no rush. I just want to visit General Zhao in Xiayuan. You two won't stay here for now while I go and talk to my companions."
The two of them looked at each other, fearing that the young man would escape: "To save time, why don't we brothers go with Mr. Shen?"
"That's fine."
Let them do whatever they want.
Shen Li walked to Zhu Hongni's door as if nothing had happened and knocked on the door: "It's me."
Zhu Hongni immediately opened the door happily. When she saw the two strangers standing behind Shen Li, she asked with a bad look on her face, "Who are they?"
Immediately, Shen Li briefly recounted the twists and turns of last night, leaving Jiang Zhuo speechless.
Zhu Hongni trailed off, "Who is it? It's Zhao Luqing, the garrison general of Wanshui Town. It seems that he and Zhao Luyuan are the same family?"
The smell of vinegar is overwhelming.
Shen Li smiled and said: "General Zhao is Miss Zhao's brother."
"I'll go with you." Zhu Hongni made a quick decision.
The two men sent by Zhao Luqing to pick up Shen Li clasped their fists: "Sorry, General Zhao only invited Mr. Shen."
Zhu Hongni sneered: "What if your General Zhao has harmful intentions?"
"Miss, you are overly worried. General Zhao has always been upright and upright in his dealings. Everyone knows that he would never harm Mr. Shen secretly."
"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts! I'm going anyway!"
