Chapter 48 Sword Selection

Seeing Qing Shi's angry appearance, Han Shuo's originally angry mood suddenly became refreshed.

"Come here." Han Shuo put the storage bag on the table next to him, and stretched out his hand to pull Qingshi into his arms, "Don't think about it, my senior brother must have asked him to come. Last time I went to ask him to borrow a car to drive away." He wanted me to send Yu Wang away and replace Yang Pingjin as a deacon, but I refused."

"Hmph!" Qing Shi sneered, "Gu Xianjun is also thinking of you. Yang Pingjin is a swordsman himself, and he is your nephew, so how do you think it is more suitable than Yu Wang?"

"No matter how suitable I am, I won't let him come here." Han Shuo stroked Qingshi's hair and promised, "It's not a day or two since my senior brother wanted to put people by my side. I've obviously lost a lot of my cultivation base. Cut it off, and want me to be controlled by him as a senior brother, hmph!"

"Making you under his control?" Qing Shi immediately raised his eyebrows, "Brother you have a lot of heart and courage!"

"You should have noticed that most of the power of my Xiantrumen is under the control of Zhenjun Hengchu's lineage, and my senior brother is very dissatisfied with this situation." Han Shuo explained, "Master When he was still there, he kept agitating Master to fight for power with True Monarch Hengchu. After Master became immortal, he settled down for a while. Last year, when I succeeded in becoming a god, his mind became active again, especially when I went to find him a while ago The matter of borrowing the car to drive him away may have misunderstood him, thinking that I was taking the opportunity to befriend him, and doing that tricky thing, it was a lot of trouble at the time, but now I am even more eager to use my power to attract wings."

"He can't be an undercover agent sent by another fairy sect?" Qing Shi asked with a look of surprise.

"What nonsense!" Han Shuo couldn't help but stare.

"Instigating the two great cultivators of the sect to fight among themselves, only the mortal enemy of Xian Chumen can do this?" Qing Shi curled his lips.

"Shut up!" Han Shuo glared at Qingshi again, and soon sighed helplessly, "He is just not reconciled. Although my senior brother's cultivation is not as fast as mine, but he was also a child when he was young. The leader in the sect, the foundation building and the alchemy have been smooth, and he is the first disciple of the master, so it is inevitable to be arrogant."

"Then, did you suffer any setbacks?" Qing Shi asked.

"Brother's biggest setback is that he has not been reused by the sect in his whole life." The helplessness on Han Shuo's face deepened. After he was born, he also has no title of elder, so he can only live in the hall of elders and teach apprentices."

Qing Shi curled his lips disapprovingly, "You seem to have just built the Elder Hall, and the hall has not yet been opened."

"I refused, but he wanted it." Han Shuo sighed again.

Qing Shi frowned suspiciously, "I can't understand your sympathy for your brother, could it be that there is something inside?"

"You are very perceptive." Han Shuo smiled lightly, and pulled Qingshi closer, "Although my Xianchumen is not a family, I also have a set of rules for employing people, not just like Wangyunzong and Danmen. Recognized as a cultivator."

"I can feel it." Qingshi nodded, "Other fairy sects, even those in the Xuantian Immortal Domain, will recruit high-level monks with foreign surnames as offerings, but our Xiantrumen only accepts underage children. , and never accept adult high-ranking monks to start."

"This is just one of the many rules." Han Shuo touched Qingshi's cheek apologetically, "It's just that this matter involves the inheritance of the sect, and I can't tell you the details. Don't try to find out."

"Don't worry, I won't do that kind of thing that seeks death." Qing Shi pouted.

"It's not that serious. Don't you think my senior brother is living a good life?" Han Shuo smiled lightly, "Okay, if my senior brother wants to make troubles, let him do it himself. I will never accompany you. I I promised to let you take care of this elder hall, then you will take care of it, and no one else can interfere, I will do what I say."

"Humph!"

"Stop humming, go and make me a pot of spirit tea, and then take a look at these spirit swords that I received today." Han Shuo patted Qingshi's butt and drove him to make tea, got up and opened the cup on the table. The storage bag, poured out all the spirit swords stored in it.

Han Shuo quickly picked out those brand new and shiny spirit swords that were obviously just bought from a store and threw them aside, and then carefully examined the remaining spirit swords and their corresponding identity jade cards.

When Qing Shi walked back with the tea tray in his hands, there were less than ten spirit swords left in front of Han Shuo, some of which were long and some were short, with different styles.

"Are you satisfied with these?" Qing Shi put the tea tray on the table and asked casually.

"At least it's a spirit sword that has been carefully cared for, not just sent to make up for it." Han Shuo said, reaching out his hand in front of Qing Shi.

Qing Shi couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but still picked up the teapot and poured a cup of spiritual tea, and then handed the cup to Han Shuo.

"The people from the first peak didn't send the spirit sword?" Han Shuo took the teacup and asked while sniffing the tea.

"There are still two days left." Qing Shi replied, picking out one of the spirit swords that Han Shuo discarded, "I remember that this is the spirit sword sent by Yang Pingjin, why is it in this pile... ...uh, you missed the match?"

"It's not his sword at all." Han Shuo sneered, "He has formed alchemy for many years, and the real natal spirit sword has long been combined with the golden alchemy in his body, so how can he get it out?"

"It's also very good, I will give you a high-sounding reason for refusal." Qing Shi pouted, and threw the sword back into the paper box.

"But if he messes up like this, there will probably be other Jindan cultivators coming to join in the fun in the next two days. You have to be careful." Han Shuo warned.

"There is nothing to be careful of. If they dare to give it away, I dare to accept it. As for the matter after accepting it, it has nothing to do with me." Qing Shi spread his hands disapprovingly.

"You are thick-skinned and can handle things." Han Shuo raised his hand and pinched Qing Shi's cheek, "Put away all the rubbish, I have to take a closer look at these spirit swords."

"Of order—" Qingshi replied, turned around and sorted out the pile of spirit swords discarded by Han Shuo, repacked them in paper boxes, and put them back into the storage bag.

The next day, sure enough, two Golden Core cultivators came to present the swords.Qingshi accepted them one by one with an attitude of not rejecting anyone who came, and Yu Wang was mentally prepared because of yesterday's incident, and everything was handed over to Qingshi. Anyway, his expressions were only expressionless and smirking, as long as he closed his eyes tightly The mouth can make people feel unpredictable.

Near noon, Shen Chenzhou and two other disciples from the first peak who were selected by Han Shuo came to deliver the sword.When he got close, Shen Chenzhou didn't care about anything, he smiled and extended his tone, and first bowed to Yu Wang as a disciple, "Uncle Yu——"

"Why are you here?" Yu Wang immediately showed a sly smile, and stretched out his hand to pull him up.He and Shen Chenzhou are the real senior brothers, and the time is much longer than with Qingshi. Although the relationship is not very close, it is better than familiarity and happiness—at least it is much more pleasant than the time with Qingshi. However, Shen Chenzhou never exploited or oppressed him. A while ago, he seriously learned the skill of refining weapons from him.

"Did you forget? The few of us have been selected by Elder Han to be disciples." Shen Chenzhou pointed to the two senior brothers beside him.

"Look at my memory!" Yu Wang patted his forehead and laughed at himself, "I was there on the day of the selection, but I forgot."

"You must have been distracted thinking about the refining furnace in the fire room!" A disciple next to him also joked with a smile.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Qing Shi deliberately coughed a few times, and interrupted with a straight face, "You guys, don't you think I don't exist?"

"Hey, how dare you, we will all rely on you in the future." Shen Chenzhou hurriedly pretended to be terrified and begged for forgiveness, "Brother Qingshi, please be respected by my brother——"

"Go, go, I, as a junior, don't dare to accept this gift from you!" Qing Shi curled his mouth and kicked his leg.

Shen Chenzhou didn't really worship at first, so he stepped aside and returned a light punch with a smile.

"Okay, okay, senior brother Shen Zhou, let's get down to business, brother Shen Zhou." The two disciples who came with Shen Chenzhou hurriedly parted ways and reminded, "Hand over the sword first. Junior Brother and the others are coming too."

"It's me, Meng Lang." Shen Chenzhou quickly calmed down, took out his identity badge and a mahogany dagger and handed it to Qing Shi, "This is my sword."

Qing Shi was slightly taken aback, took the mahogany dagger and looked it over carefully, then gave Shen Shenzhou a meaningful look, without commenting, let alone checking the identity jade badge, directly took out the paper box and put it away, turned around Give it to Yuwang income storage bag.The other two disciples who came with them also handed over their identity jade badges and spirit swords, one was a very regular three-foot Qingfeng, and the other was a thin and soft sword.Qing Shi also took it away and handed it over to Yu Wang for safekeeping.

After handing over the spirit sword, the two disciples obviously relaxed a bit, and they were not in a hurry to leave. They stayed in the valley with Shen Shenzhou and chatted with Yu Wang and Qing Shi.While chatting, Su Fang and another first peak disciple also appeared at the entrance of the valley.

Han Shuo selected a total of six disciples to enter the palace last time, and one of them finally gave up the opportunity to be a swordsman after thinking about it in every possible way, and continued to practice the original five-element magic. This is the nameless valley.

——Shen Chenzhou was also considered astute, and he won over the two of them so quickly.

Qing Shi suppressed his smiling face, and looked at the two Su Fang in a businesslike manner.

"Uncle Yu, Senior Brother Shen..." Because they were all disciples from the First Peak, Su Fang and the person who came with him first saluted Yu Wang and Shen Chenzhou who came earlier, and then turned their heads to look at Qing. Varied.

"Brother Yan, this is my sword." The disciple who came with Su Fang took out a long sword with cloud patterns engraved on the sword body, and held it in front of Qing Shi together with his own jade badge.

Qing Shi first took a look at the identity jade badge, then took the long sword, put it in the paper box as usual, and passed it to Yu Wang.

"Senior Brother Yan." Su Fang saluted Qingshi empty-handed, and said cautiously, "My spirit sword has been refined by me into a magic weapon of life, so I really can't hand it over to Senior Brother, can you... ..."

"Junior Brother Su, don't worry." Qing Shi interrupted expressionlessly, "This selection is only for other disciples outside of the first peak. The five of you are the disciples selected by Elder Han to enter the palace. It doesn't matter whether you participate or not." Relationship."

Qing Shi's light "it doesn't matter" blocked all Su Fang's words back, and Qing Shi's obviously cold and contemptuous eyes made Su Fang's complexion paler.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Yan, for your guidance." Su Fang clenched his fists, finally cupped his hands and saluted Qing Shi again, and said with a forced smile, "However, if Elder Han asks, please ask Senior Brother to explain a few words for you, don't let Elder Han Misunderstand."

"Junior Brother Su, don't worry, Elder Han won't ask." Qing Shi's tone was obviously disapproving, and he almost bluntly said that Su Fang was treating Elder Han's gentleman's belly with his villainous heart.

Su Fang smiled stiffly, and the disciple who came with him also hesitated to speak.Although Qing Shi's attitude was indifferent, there was no flaw in his words for criticism, not to mention that he was not familiar with Su Fang at all, and it is normal to be ruthless in business affairs.

Shen Chenzhou didn't intervene, the expression on his face was even more indifferent than Qing Shi's, and the two people who came with him kept their mouths tightly shut, as if they were completely out of the way.As for Yu Wang, his face was expressionless, only a little bewilderment inevitably appeared in his eyes.

"In that case, then I won't hinder Senior Brother Yan's work." Su Fang couldn't find any supporters, so he could only smile timidly and leave.

"Junior Brother Su, please go ahead." Qing Shi didn't even give him a polite way to persuade him to stay.

Su Fang pursed his lips, but finally didn't say anything, pulled the disciple who came with him, and the two turned and left the valley.

Watching the figures of the two gradually go away, Qing Shi curled his lips, and said without concealment, "Every time I see you, Junior Brother Su, my perception of the well will improve by three points."

Shen Chenzhou burst out laughing, but said, "Junior Brother, please be cautious."

The quarrel between Qingshi and Jingli is well-known in Xianchumen, but after young Shi entered Han Shuo's seat, he began to live in seclusion, and the two had almost no chance to meet each other. Naturally, there will be no trouble.Right now, Qingshi is comparing Su Fang with Jingli, and it is clear that Su Fang is not pleasing to the eye, and the degree of distaste is still higher than that of Jingli.

Although even Shen Shenzhou didn't quite understand why Qingshi disliked Su Fang so much, but none of the people who heard Qingshi said that was willing to take the risk of offending Qingshi to speak for Su Fang.At least Shen Chenzhou said something mildly, and the others just laughed it off.

Without him, frivolity even has the capital to be frivolous - he is the grand-nephew of Fairy Fengxi, the former celebrity of Zhenjun Han Shuo, and he earned face for the sect because of the Linggu incident last year.And what about Su Fang?They are descendants of outer disciples, and they have not even worshiped a master until now.Although it seems that he has also been favored by Zhenjun Han Shuo, he is not the only one who has received such favor, and how long and deeply he will be favored is even more unpredictable.Comparing the two, it is clear at a glance which is more important.

But Qingshi didn't say anything more, and changed the subject after pointing out her dislike for him.As for Shen Chenzhou and the others, it was not good for them to stay here for a long time, and after chatting for a few more words, they also bid farewell.

Although there were very few people who came to present the swords today, Qing Shi still waited to sit until the sun went down before closing the booth and leaving.

After returning to Han Shuo's cave, Qing Shi directly sent the storage bag to Han Shuo, "The people from the first peak also came to send swords, except for Su Fang, who I don't like, the swords of the other four are here But it’s not that Su Fang didn’t give it away, he came here to tell me that his sword has been refined by him into a talisman and cannot be separated from the body.”

"Refining is a magic weapon of life?" Han Shuo immediately frowned, "I remember that he is only a disciple of the Foundation Establishment Stage?"

"That's right, and it's still in the early stage of foundation establishment." Qing Shi curled his lips and said, "I guess his spirit sword is of a very high grade, otherwise he wouldn't have decided on his natal magic weapon so early—maybe he just had this high-grade spirit sword. I will choose the path of sword cultivation."

Han Shuo couldn't help but give Qing Shi a meaningful look.Qingshi's words sounded very ordinary at first glance. If a layman heard it, he would think that Qingshi had too many associations, but Han Shuo was deeply immersed in the sword cultivator, and he knew that a sword cultivator with a little common sense would not Refining your own spirit sword in the way of refining your natal magic weapon, let alone choosing it before forming an alchemy!

In addition, choosing exercises based on spiritual weapons is also a big taboo in the cultivation world.It may benefit a lot in the early stage, but as the cultivation base gradually improves, the auxiliary effect of the spiritual weapon on the monk will inevitably gradually decline.If the cultivation method selected because of the spirit weapon is not in line with the cultivator's own characteristics, the initial assistance will become a hindrance in the future. Therefore, it is not without lessons learned from the past that he has to retrain his kung fu.

In other words, Qing Shi's seemingly casual sentence actually smeared Su Fang several times.

"Do you know that the more you mention this person so frequently, the more I will fall in love with him?" Han Shuo sighed and said to Qingshi helplessly.

"Of course I know, why don't I mention him?" Qing Shi replied flatly.

"Don't you worry that I'm so attached to him that..." Han Shuo didn't continue, but the meaning was expressed very clearly, and he just looked down on whether he wanted to pretend to be confused.

Qing Shi didn't disappoint him, and laughed jokingly, "If Elder Han is really interested, why don't I help you pimp? Anyway, Su Fang has wanted to visit you alone more than once, and he must also be interested in you .”

"Enough is enough. Is it interesting to test me like this?" Han Shuo remembered that his shamelessness with Qing Shi was purely looking for abuse, so he coughed lightly, trying to put the topic aside.

"It's hard to say who is testing whom!" Qing Shi snorted coldly.

"Alright, shall I find a reason to expel him from the head office of the Elder Hall as soon as possible?" Han Shuo became more and more resigned to Qing Shi, so he could only put down his airs and speak softly.

In fact, Qingshi understands the principle of what is right and where is enough. Occasionally, it is fun to be arrogant. If you are too arrogant, you will be annoyed by others.But right now, he doesn't want to offend Han Shuo.

"I'll make you some tea." Qing Shi put on a smile and turned around to walk towards the wooden house.

Looking at his back, Han Shuo sighed inaudibly, then smiled helplessly, lowered his head and turned his attention to the storage bag in his hand.
