Take a Sigh

After a few days of rest after the year, it was time to be busy again.

Wanbaolou's first auction of the year is scheduled for the Lantern Festival. This year's venue host is Duan Yanchun himself, and the subsequent auction sessions will be hosted by Duan Qiu.

Duan Qiudang will not just show up with her true colors, in order to cooperate with Shen Zhuo, she will do a cover-up.In addition to helping the Shen family create momentum, this year's auction also has a lot of good things.

Wanbaolou has already drawn up a good gift list, and it is not hidden. Just ask a little bit, and you will be able to get the news.But in the anticipation of everyone, what makes people feel surprised is that there is no fourth-grade Xisui Pill.

It stands to reason that the Shen family should take advantage of such an occasion, and it is impossible to remain silent.Outsiders couldn't figure it out, and even suspected that Wanbaolou owned and hid it.

Wanbao Building is really wronged at this point, because - the first gold rush session is just for fun, the items auctioned will not appear on the gift list, and the subsequent auctions will also be quotas, so they will not directly write about Xisui Pill.

The outsider didn't turn this corner, and it wasn't that Wanbaolou was hiding something.

In previous years, Shen Xiao would also join in the fun at the auction, but this year Shen Zhuo was given full power to handle all matters of the Shen family, so he was happy to have a leisurely time.

After several days of busy work, Shen Zhuo refined all the things he needed and sent them to Wanbaolou, where they were appraised by an appraiser.This appraiser is an old acquaintance, and the valuation is just a formality.Duan Yanchun had already greeted him, and the people below should follow suit.

After the reopening of the Shen family's mansion, many ghosts and snake spirits came to the door and used the excuse of visiting the house to congratulate them and find trouble. If the Shen family could open the door to welcome them in, it could also make them leave with their tails between their legs in despair.

Of course, in addition to these troublemakers, the Shen family also received the disciples who had left, some of whom had had conversations with Shen Xiao and his wife, and some had other purposes.

Shen Xiao chose to keep a part of it. The catastrophe of the Shen family this time made him understand that a growing family will inevitably breed corruption, and sometimes it is better to lack than to abuse.The Shen family is not a place for charity either, kindness to the enemy is cruelty to oneself.

The matter of dealing with visitors was left to Shen Xiao, and Shen Zhuo, who was too busy, also had time to steal some leisure.

New Year's Eve - after breakfast, Wen Runing took the Wen family away, and the only people living in the Shen family's residence at the moment were the disciples of the Huanyue Immortal Sect and the public loser.

Gong Shuhua is a restless person. If you ask him to treat others, he will shake his head, but if you ask him to refine weapons, he will forget to eat and sleep.Coupled with Ling Shuangxue, a senior craftsman in front of him, he plunged headlong into the ocean of craftsmanship, refusing to swim out.

Ling Shuangxue wants to forge the natal sword for Shen Zhuo, and the materials collected are almost the same, so the basic refining can begin.When Gong Shuhua found out, he volunteered to help, but Ling Shuangxue didn't chase him away, and the others didn't dare to have Qiang.

Refining will consume physical and spiritual energy, which is a big burden for Ling Shuangxue, so his refining speed is very slow.Shen Zhuo was worried before, but since Ling Shuangxue refines weapons in the daytime and seeks him out at night, his worried heart has returned to his stomach.

For Ling Shuangxue, he is a magic tool to replenish spiritual power, and he can fill up with one mouthful.It is this method that will inevitably misfire, and it is not very friendly to him.

Gongshu Qiong's temperament has become more and more calm over the years, and he will only relax when facing his younger sister acting like a baby.She has nothing to say to Shen Zhuo, and she just nodded her head when she met her on weekdays, but she got along well with other people from the Huanyue Xianzong, and they got together to discuss the matter of cultivating Taoism when they had nothing to do.

Before, Shen Zhuo was worried about whether Jiang Ling would appear awkward among them, but soon he realized that his worries were unfounded. After leaving Mo Qingyu, Jiang Ling felt like a fish in water,

Whether it's the friendship of the same family or with other people, he gets along very well.The past between him and Shen Zhuo was tacitly understood by everyone, and no one mentioned it.

During the days of recuperating in the Shen family, his complexion has improved a lot, and his cultivation base has steadily improved under the relaxed state of mind.Seeing that his luck has returned, Shen Zhuo couldn't help being happy for him.

Gong Shuhua has a separate refining room in Shen's house, and Ling Shuangxue borrowed it for a few days, but he is not in Shen Zhuo's courtyard during the day.After Shen Zhuo finished his meditation, he gathered fire and condensed his sword, and danced solo in the courtyard.

Back home, busyness is indispensable, alchemy has not been left behind, but sword practice is occasional.The sword technique that Ling Shuangxue handed over to him is infinitely changeable every move and every move, it needs to be practiced hard and cannot be neglected.

The courtyard is wide and will not hinder the movement of the sword.Shen Zhuo still remembers the feeling when practicing sword, it almost became a kind of inertia.He practiced so selflessly that he didn't realize that someone was coming until the last move was over, the sword was drawn away, and applause came from the door.

Jiang Ling was leaning against the Moon Gate, wearing a clean blue outfit, neat and tidy.Shen Zhuo's sword fascinated him, and his eyes were hot|hot.

"Shibie will treat each other with admiration for three days. Today I can see Senior Brother Shen's swordsmanship. I think that if I compete again at this moment, I may not be the opponent of Senior Brother Shen." Jiang Ling did not hesitate to praise himself. He stepped into the yard, His gaze was still on Shen Zhuo.

Compared with Shen Zhuo's flamboyant and bright, he is low-key, restrained, elegant and handsome, making people feel like a spring breeze.Even staring straight at someone like this is not offensive.

Shen Zhuo scattered the flames in his palms, and said: "Junior Brother Jiang laughed, I just took advantage of my talent, to be honest, you are better than me."

The selection criteria for luck are different, there are protagonists who have risen from the bottom, and there are also famous families like Shen Zhuo who were born with a golden key in their mouths.Shen Zhuo said that taking advantage of his talent is not self-effacing, he was born with a perfect fire attribute, and this alone is far ahead of others.

On the other hand, Jiang Ling, the good-for-nothing who was kicked out by the Mo family, reached the peak|peak by not admitting defeat, turning around the situation that was unfavorable to him little by little, turning decay into magic.

"Talent is also a part of one's own strength. There are not many people who treat their talent well like Senior Brother Shen."

Jiang Ling has seen a lot of talents over the years, and there are quite a few people who look down on low-level monks because of a little talent.He doesn't think it's a big deal, not to mention that talent can be changed the day after tomorrow. What is really powerful is the choice made by the person with talent.

Shen Zhuo laughed, invited Jiang Ling into the room, and asked, "Are you still used to living here?"

"Thanks to senior brother for taking care of me, everything is fine, it's very warm here." Jiang Ling sat down beside Shen Zhuo with a smile on his face. He thought about not being welcomed because of the past, but when he came he It was only then that she discovered that the Shen family was not in the past.

The parents, Shen Xiao and Ye Lanxi, are open-minded and kind. They are tolerant and caring towards the younger generation. It is not difficult to imagine how dazzling Shen Zhuo was when he grew up under such doting.

Sometimes Jiang Ling couldn't help wondering, was the Shen Zhuo of the past years really Shen Zhuo?Sometimes he has Shen Zhuo's current strength of character, but sometimes he is uneducated, teaching people-it's hard to describe.

Shen Zhuo took out the tea leaves and brewed a pot of hot tea, made of fragrant centella. The clear breath made people clear their minds and clear their minds.

"The rules of the Shen family are not strict, you don't need to worry about it here, practice hard, and worry about things after leaving the Shen family." Shen Zhuo held the tea and said something.

Jiang Ling was stunned, and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.He did have troubles, but he thought he hid them well, but Shen Zhuo still noticed them.

In the past, he didn't know Shen Zhuo, nor did he know how serious the consequences of Shen Zhuo's obsession with him were.Living in Shen's house these days, in fact, I can occasionally hear other disciples whispering, talking about the past.

Those words put a depraved Shen Zhuo in front of Jiang Ling's eyes. Jiang Ling was inexplicably blocked. He thought more than once, if he had agreed to Shen Zhuo, would it be a different scene?

But soon he realized that he had a whimsical idea, let alone whether the Shen family would lead the two of them together, the master would not agree.

In Shen Zhuo, he was more like a sudden disaster that was caught off guard.

"Senior Brother Shen, I have been to Huajin City for a few days, but I haven't fully appreciated the customs and customs in the lower city. Today | you are free, can you ask me to go out for a walk?"

Jiang Ling suppressed the messy thoughts in his heart, and said his purpose for coming.Because of Mo Qingyu, he didn't know much about Hua Jincheng.The reason why he came to find Shen Zhuo was also a little selfish, he wanted to chat with Shen Zhuo, go shopping.

Shen Zhuo agreed without thinking too long, but he wanted to meet Ling Shuangxue and say hello to him before going out.

"It should." Jiang Ling only thought of the close relationship between the master and the apprentice, and didn't think too much about it.

Shen Zhuo took him to Gongshuhua's refining room. After all, Gongshuhua was also an overlord of Fang, a Taoist master of Hubaiying, but in front of Ling Shuangxue, he only had a job as a handyman.

The amazing thing is that he enjoys it and doesn't feel inferior at all.

Ling Shuangxue used a strange fire, frost formed outside the refining furnace, and the blue fire raged inside, Gong Shuhua was amazed by it.The materials for today's exercise are relatively strenuous, and Ling Shuangxue rested longer than before, her complexion was pale, and her sickness was more obvious.

When Shen Zhuo and Jiang Ling arrived, Gong Shuhua had just been instructed by Ling Shuangxue to go to the yard to quench the utensils forged today.Shen Zhuo came forward to greet him, left Jiangling waiting outside, and entered the refining room by himself.

Ling Shuangxue changed into dark clothes when refining the weapon, making her even thinner. He sat cross-legged, with his back to the door, controlling the faint fire in the stove.

Shen Zhuo stepped forward, called Master, and said that he wanted to go out with Jiang Ling.

Ling Shuangxue hummed, indicating that she understood.Shen Zhuo was not in a hurry to leave, he noticed that today's consumption was not as much as before, and sat down beside him with some worry.

"Master, do you need my help?" Shen Zhuo raised his hand to wipe the thin sweat from Ling Shuangxue's forehead.

Ling Shuangxue's heart was moved, she turned her head to look over, her eyes drooped slightly, she thought for a while, then raised her hand to place the restraint, and lowered Shen Zhuo's head.

The exchange of spiritual energy replenished Ling Shuangxue's internal friction, and the lingering breath flowed continuously, and the surrounding temperature almost caught up with the strange fire in the refining furnace.

Shen Zhuo held Ling Shuangxue's hand, and pushed the person forward with difficulty, if it was a little later, he might not be as simple as passing his breath.

"Master." Shen Zhuo's eyes were stained with a little water, he seemed a little helpless, even the title made people feel soft.

Ling Shuangxue was unmoved, and lifted the restraint: "You should go, don't make people wait too long."

Shen Zhuo sighed, knowing that this is really not the right time, he leaned into Ling Shuangxue's ear and whispered softly: "It's not too much for me to ask for compensation tonight, right?"

Ling Shuangxue was silent, thought for a moment and said: "Okay."

Shen Zhuo smiled happily, no longer disturbing Ling Shuangxue's thoughts, and exited happily.

He just stepped out of the door and swept into the yard, he couldn't help being stunned.

Under the corridor, Ye Lanxi was looking over with deep eyes.
