There were footsteps outside the quiet room. Yu Yao hurriedly broke away from his arms, turned her back to face the window lattice, straightened her appearance slightly, and took a deep breath to calm down her chaotic mind.
The footsteps stopped outside the door. Someone knocked twice with his fingers and said, "Junior brother Wei, I am Shi Chuandeng. I have something to discuss with you. Do you have some free time?"
With Shi Chuandeng's cultivation, it is not difficult to find that there is someone else in the quiet room. He insists on disturbing him. Obviously "something happened" is not an excuse. Wei Shiqi remembers Qingming's reminder and knows that he is most likely doing it for Sanzu. When the cauldron came, he immediately opened the door and invited him in.
Yu Yao took a step forward. Just as she was about to meet her uncle, Shi Chuandeng turned a blind eye to her, with a clear look of ridicule in his eyes. He cupped his hands to greet Wei Shiqi. Yu Yao was stunned for a moment, and quickly stepped out knowingly, covering her eyes with her hands. Got to the door.
Walking along the plank road, she unknowingly arrived at Xiongzheng Cliff. Looking at the rolling mountains and the blazing morning glow on the horizon, she felt both aggrieved and annoyed. Shi Chuandeng was a willful and willful person, and his attitude reminded her that an indescribable feeling was tumbling in her chest. Although she was unwilling to think about it or admit it, she knew her situation clearly, in the eyes of the head, in the eyes of Grandma Sun, and in In the eyes of Shi Chuandeng, and in the eyes of countless fellow disciples of Liushi Peak, the Yu Yao of the past was dead, and the one who survived was just a plaything. Her fate was controlled by Wei Qiyi's hands. Whether it was life or death, honor or disgrace, it all depended on His thoughts.
Is this destiny?
Yes, she had feelings for Wei Shiqi. The experiences she spent with him in her memory were long or short. Looking back now, people can't help but smile. At that time, she had no extra thoughts in her heart. It can be described as pure. Even if she reluctantly accepted the arrangement of fate, subconsciously, she always felt that she would be his partner and be able to walk a long journey with him hand in hand. However, he also held the same hope. idea?
He said to leave it to him to think about, and he promised to help him solve all the problems, but people will change...men are unsympathetic, love the new and hate the old...the easier it is to get something, the less they know how to cherish it...countless thoughts One after another, she groaned in pain and closed her eyes tightly.
Since when did Wei Shiqi become farther and farther away from him, so far away that he could only see his back? Since when did Shi Chuandeng have to politely say, "We have something to discuss, do you have free time?" She began to be wary and worried about gains and losses.
The year-end gambling game was his stage. In the night that just passed, he became the leader of the second generation disciples of Liushi Peak. Even if he couldn't compare with Chu Ge and Du Mo, no one dared to underestimate him.
Yu Yao didn't know that in Xianyun Peak in the far west of Kunlun, there was a woman named Qin Zhen. She realized this many years ago. In order to one day be able to walk beside him, she worked hard to change herself.
If the gap between people is too big to a certain extent, relationships cannot be maintained. This has nothing to do with original intentions, but only human nature.
Yu Yao looked up and saw Wuya View in the distance.
In the quiet room, Wei Shiqi smiled and said, "I wonder if Senior Brother Shi is here, what advice do you have?"
Shi Chuandeng did not beat around the bush and said calmly: "Junior Brother Wei won three prizes in the end-of-year gambling game. Among them is a three-legged cauldron, which is of great use to me. I wonder if Junior Brother can give up his love. I am willing to exchange for it."
He took off a storage bag from his waist, shook it gently, and poured out seven or eight bits and pieces, including a dead branch, two porcelain vases, a vermilion jade box, and more than a dozen insect eggs the size of chess pieces. A jade slip and a string of brown beads.
"This is all the belongings I have on hand." Shi Chuandeng picked up the items one by one and briefly explained a few words to him.
That inconspicuous dead branch was obtained by killing a Xuanmen monk in his early years. Its purpose is unknown. It is probably a raw material for alchemy. Xuanmen alchemy is different from that of the Kunlun Sect. The raw materials used are mostly plants and trees, and demon pills are rarely used. The techniques were very different and had very little in common. He asked many people for advice, but no one knew their origins.
The two porcelain bottles contain elixirs. One is Huang Chi Dan, which is very helpful in restoring vitality and breaking through bottlenecks. The other is Butian Dan, which is very effective in healing wounds and eliminating poisons. These two elixirs are sufficient. It is so precious that even a direct disciple cannot have one or two around him.
The vermilion jade box is made of red jade and is called the red jade box. Red jade is the essence formed by putting red sandstone into an alchemy furnace and smelting it with earth fire to remove the waste and retain the essence. It is suitable to be made into a jade box or gourd-shaped container to support spiritual insects and has many benefits. Smelting red jade takes a long time, impurities are difficult to remove, and the color is impure and often tends to be purple. The Poison Sword Sect often uses purple red jade gourds to store golden-headed centipedes. A vermilion red jade box like this one is of high quality and can be found on Liushi Peak. Not common either.
Those eggs the size of chess pieces are the eggs laid by the Grimace Moth, obtained from the Savage Bone Forest. The Grimace Moth is a famous poisonous insect on the list of spiritual insects. It ranks before the Green Iron Bee. The Green Iron Bee is naturally capable of restraining poisons, but it is The Grimace Moth retreated.
The jade slip itself is not a rare thing. He won it through a bet with an elder from the Poison Sword Sect. It lists some famous insects on the spiritual insect list. There are only fifteen or six species. It is not complete, but it is valuable. Yes, each insect has its habits, characteristics and feeding experience, and the grimace moth is included. The jade slip is paired with the insect eggs and the red jade box, which complements each other and is extremely rare.
As for the string of beads, they were made by Ganan. They were round and jade-like. They passed through the hands of many people and passed through the hands of Shi Chuandeng. Gannan is the top grade of agarwood. Ordinary agarwood needs to be lit. If you warm it with your hands, Ganan will exude a cool and sweet scent. It has the miraculous effect of dispelling evil spirits and calming the mind. It is the key to understanding the sword technique and breaking through bottlenecks. Auxiliary things.
Wei Shiqi patiently listened to his explanation, thinking that he had gained a lot of experience, and finally said with a smile: "Senior brother, do you have any suggestions?"
Shi Chuandeng thought for a moment and proposed to exchange the jade slips, insect eggs and red jade box for the cauldron he had on hand, and the string of Ganan beads would be a good addition.
Wei Shiqi said: "I have no interest in raising spiritual insects. Would you like to exchange the three prizes that senior brother got from the gambling game?"
This statement was expected. Shi Chuandeng pondered for a moment and said with emotion: "To be honest with my junior brother, the three pieces of lottery must be handed over to the master, but I can pick one first - whichever one my junior brother likes, just take it." go."
Wei Shiqi took out the three-legged cauldron and pushed it in front of him, saying: "Change that wrong gold and jade ball."
Shi Chuandeng hesitated and asked, "Junior brother, do you know what is in the jade ball?"
Wei Shiqi shook his head and said with a smile: "Because I didn't know, I changed it and took a gamble."
"Junior brother's idea is different!" Shi Chuandeng was astonished. He left the gold and jade ball behind, took the cauldron and left. From the beginning to the end, Wei Shiqi neither asked for high prices nor asked about the origin and purpose of the three-legged cauldron. Shi Chuandeng admired this very much and felt that this person could be a close friend.
Of course, the most important reason for our close friendship is that he showed strength beyond his peers in the year-end gambling game.
