camouflage salted fish

The carriage drove to the outskirts of Qingcheng, Shen Budu got out of the car, and saw tall poinciana trees planted all around, the leaves were like phoenix feathers, the flowers were like phoenix crowns, everywhere was fiery red, so gorgeous that it almost ignited people's sight .

Behind layers of poinciana trees, there is an exquisite two-story building, the person who led the way said to Shen Budu: "My master is waiting for you in the building, Mr. Shen, please follow me."

The two walked around a piece of fiery red flowers and trees, and their vision suddenly widened. It turned out that there was a large lake in front of the building, which was clear and green, sparkling, reflecting the flowers and leaves of the Phoenix tree, and it was as beautiful as a fairy pond in heaven.

Shen Budu couldn't help thinking that the first time he met Feng Ce was in front of such a green lake.

At that time, he needed the scales of the gold-threaded fish as the material for the refiner, and it was said that the golden-threaded fish could only be found in the green lake in the upper spirit world, and the number was extremely rare.When Shen Budu arrived at Cuihu Lake, he found that there was also someone sitting by the lake fishing. That person was dressed in a red dress with golden patterns, and had a great temperament. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, his legs seemed to be sick, so he could tell that he was definitely not an ordinary person.

Shen Budu also sat down by the lake, took out his fishing gear and started fishing.

Cuihu Lake is full of aura, and many rare species live here. Using spiritual power will cause disturbance and damage to the environment. Therefore, if monks want the fish in Cuihu Lake, they can only use this most primitive method.

But just like Shen Budu who has no patience to pick fishbone, he is even more impatient to sit and fish without moving. However, he found that the other party was still sitting upright, with a calm and peaceful atmosphere, as if he was concentrating on the lake, waiting for the fish to take the bait.

Shen Budu was in awe.

Look at others, they have such determination at such a young age, it is really embarrassing!

So he turned back and continued fishing patiently.

After persisting for a while, he was really bored, and couldn't help turning his head to look at the other person. He found that the other person was still meticulous, and was about to admire him, but found that the float in the other person's lake had started to shake up and down, but the person was still the same. He didn't move, he didn't seem to respond at all.

Shen Budu waited for a while, seeing that the fish was about to finish eating the bait and run away, he finally couldn't help but reminded: "Brother, you've taken the bait!"

It wasn't until then that Shen Budu realized that the brother had his eyes closed, he woke up in a daze after he called out, and it was too late to lift the pole again.

Shen Budu couldn't help laughing out loud, got up and walked over to jokingly said: "I was wondering why your concentration is so good, so it turned out that you were dozing off!"

The man in red raised his head, his eyes showed a beautiful and strange dark gold under the sun, he also shook his head and smiled, and said distressedly: "I can't help it, it's too boring, if I don't want to use gold thread fish forging, I don't want to Come here."

Hey, so he was still a fellow traveler?

Shen Budu became interested, dragged his fishing rod over, and sat next to him naturally, chatting while fishing: "Brother is also a craftsman?"

The man smiled and nodded: "It's just for self-entertainment, it's not worth mentioning."

But through talking, Shen Budu found that this person was really too modest.

This is by no means "not worth mentioning". Shen Budu was surprised by the other party's insights and attainments in refining weapons, and even felt admiration spontaneously.

And it's not just refining tools, but in other aspects, whether it's cultivation, medical skills, formations, etc., the other party's speech is calm and familiar, and he can hit the point with just a few words. Obviously, he is not pretending to be profound, but a real expert .

It has been a long time since Shen Budu communicated with people so freely.

Although there is never a shortage of outstanding talents around him, few people can reach the height of Shen Budu, and most of the time, Shen Budu is on the side of teaching and outputting, and few people can stand on the same side as him Position, communicate and share ideas with him on an equal footing.

But now, Shen Budu felt that he had met him.

The same is true for the look of the other party.

During the happy conversation, Shen Budu saw the other party's float moved again with sharp eyes, and quickly reminded him that the other party saw the opportunity and pulled out his pole suddenly, and a golden fish was caught out of the lake with its tail wagging!

It happened to be a goldfish!

Shen Budu couldn't help laughing and said: "Brother, you're lucky!"

The other party brought the fish ashore with a smile, but before he could speak, a miraculous scene happened.

The lake water was rippling for a while, and another gold-threaded fish leaped out, jumped onto the shore, and landed next to the previous gold-threaded fish.This fish was twice the size of the previous one. Lying on the bank, a tear rolled down his eyes.

Shen Budu and that person were both taken aback.

Ordinary fish don't shed tears. I don't know if the golden thread fish is born with intelligence, or because the fish that was caught earlier is the child of this female fish.

Shen Budu looked at the two fish leaning together, hesitated for a moment and said to the man in red: "Well... I still have some good refining materials, or brother, put them back, it looks so pitiful .”

The man in red looked at him and smiled: "Shen Xianzun is indeed a sweetheart, as the rumors say."

He bent down and gently threw the two gold-threaded fish back into the lake, saying, "No matter how precious the fish are, how can they be compared with their bosom friends? Ce is naturally willing to obey."

Shen Budu also cupped his hands with a smile: "Then I would like to thank Pavilion Master Feifeng."

It's like they don't exchange names, but they can understand each other's identity tacitly; many times they can understand each other's thoughts with just a look without speaking.

It's hard to find a bosom friend, and it's hard to find a confidant. Shen Budu often feels that it is his great luck to meet Feng Ce in this life.

The guide brought Shen Budu to the entrance of the small building and then retreated. Shen Budu entered the building and went up the wooden ladder to the second floor. As expected, he saw a tall and tall figure in front of the window. When he heard the movement, he turned his head, and the dark golden His eyes suddenly brightened a little, and he smiled and called: "A'Du!"

Shen Budu couldn't tell whether he was more surprised or more pleasantly surprised, he strode forward, looked Feng Ce around, and asked overjoyedly, "Your leg is healed?"

Before his death in his previous life, Feng Ce's legs were still bad for walking, so he had to sit in a wheelchair all the time.Shen Budu knew that this injury was caused by a disaster when the other party was young, and he tried his best to get Feng Ce to stand up, not out of pity or sympathy, because he knew that the other party didn't need them.

He just simply hoped that his best friend could have a healthy body, and felt that a life as splendid as the other party's should not be confined in a small wheelchair.

But they failed many times, and even Shen Budu was disappointed, but Feng Ce comforted him in turn, saying that he had already gotten used to it, even if he couldn't walk with his legs, there was no place in the world he couldn't go to.

Although the fact is true, Shen Budu still has regrets.Seeing the other party recovering now, he is naturally extremely happy, it is many times happier than himself being resurrected from the dead.

"Yes." Feng Ce nodded with a smile, his gaze was tracing his face inch by inch.

"It's a different face, it's not as handsome as before, let's make do with it." Shen Budu said brazenly, and then asked quickly, "How to cure it? Does it hurt when you walk? You won't use any dangerous methods, will you?" ?”

The smile in Feng Ce's eyes deepened.This person can always guess himself at a glance.

In his life, he hated others' guessing beyond their limits, but there was only this person in front of him, and he was happy with it.

He didn't hide anything, and said bluntly: "Well, I did use a little forbidden technique."

This forbidden technique allowed him to recover his legs in the first month. Every step he took was like walking on the tip of a sharp knife. Every inch of muscle and every blood vessel in his legs seemed to be cut and stitched all the time, an endless cycle. Back and forth; in addition, he has to pay the price of at least 20 years of life.

He has known this forbidden technique for a long time, but due to some concerns, it has been useless.

Until Shen Budu died.

All worries no longer exist at that moment, Feng Ce has never been so irrational and extremely rational, he clearly knows that his only thought is to find that person as soon as possible and bring him back.

No matter what the price.

Shen Budu's expression changed as expected, and he said with an ugly face: "Why did you use the forbidden technique so rashly? Is the 20-year Yangshou a joke? I said Feng Ce, you really—"

"It's okay, I don't want to wait any longer." Feng Ce interrupted him softly, and gently held his hand.

"Because only by standing up," he looked seriously into Shen Budu's eyes, "can I truly stand shoulder to shoulder with A'Du."

——Thus becoming the only person in this world who can match you.

-

Qingcheng Inn, in the room on the second floor, six people from Zhenshanzong gathered around the table, looking solemnly at the six golden academy invitation letters.

"No. [-] Academy in the World," Song Yifan sighed, "I always feel like I'm dreaming."

The others nodded in disbelief.

In fact, for them, being able to leave the Northern Wilderness and have an academy is already very satisfying, but they didn't expect to be able to study in the Bailuxi Academy in the upper spirit world. This was a surprise and made them a little panicked.

They only knew after hearing from Lu Danxu that Bailuxi Academy had never sent any invitation letters before, and students had always been unable to squeeze in without breaking their heads.

But they took six of them in one go, even Ruan Ruan had them!

"The person who sent the invitation seems to be very powerful." Nie Weiyu smacked her lips, "I heard Lu Shaoxia and Fang Shaoxia say that he seems to be the master of Feifeng Pavilion..."

Just like everyone has heard of Tianya Canghaimen, there is no one in Xiujie who does not know the reputation of Feifeng Pavilion.Nie Weiyu murmured: "Brother Shen is too powerful, why do you know so many big brothers..."

Oh no, Brother Shen himself is also a boss.

Sure enough, only big bosses and big bosses will make friends, she is just a rookie who got in by mistake, eh.

Gu Yanyu glanced at her, hesitated to speak.Qiu Wanran noticed that her expression was different, and asked, "Little Gu, what's wrong?"

Several people cast their gazes, Gu Yanyu took a deep breath and asked, "Do you still think that Shen Du is really Shen Du?"

To be honest, people like Zhenshanzong are smart, but they are elm-headed in certain things, and they all looked at her blankly after hearing the words.

Gu Yanyu said helplessly: "Shen Du was born in Pingyuan County. Before that, he and we had never left Beihuang. Why did he know the legendary Master Feifeng, and he seemed to have a good relationship with him? Do you think this is possible? "

Li Xingyu opened his mouth, his mind was a little blank: "Sister Yanyu, what do you mean..."

"'Shen Du' is not Shen Du at all, at least not the people inside the shell." Gu Yanyu said, "Actually, I felt something was wrong when I was in the Northern Wilderness, but that guess is too outrageous, I really can't be sure ..."

"Didn't you realize that Shaoxia Xie's attitude towards Brother Shen is a bit strange?"

Lu Danxu, Fang Shaojun, and Xie Jianhuan were already miraculous when they appeared in Beihuang, but what was even more miraculous was their performance in front of Shen Du.

They themselves said that they fell in love with Shen Du, so they became friends, but through Gu Yanyu's observation, they were obedient to Shen Du, and they were very respectful in their words and actions, even with a kind of respect and admiration for their seniors. intimate.

The three people of Xie Fanglu are all big figures that no one knows. If they want to have strength and status, is it necessary to be so humble to "woo" another person?

I would like to ask, besides "that one", is there a second person who can make these three people respect so much at the same time?

Gu Yanyu couldn't believe the conclusion she had conjectured at first, until she found out that even the legendary Master of the Feifeng Pavilion would personally send invitations and invite Shen Du to reminisce about the old days, and finally she was able to confirm it.

"So, you mean..." Nie Weiyu also thought about it, her eyes widened in shock, and said tremblingly, "Brother Shen is actually not Shen Du, he is... he is..."

Gu Yanyu: "He just can't get through."

Like a thunderbolt, everyone present was dumbfounded.

"No... Impossible!" Li Xingyu was in a state of confusion, subconsciously said, "Senior Shen didn't... long ago..."

"We only heard about the fall of Sect Master Shen, but we didn't see it with our own eyes." Gu Yanyu said, "And even if it is true, it is not true that a person like him who can ascend to the sky and enter the earth can use any method to bring the dead back to life." Impossible."

Li Xingyu was speechless, but still couldn't believe it.How could Senior Shen and Big Brother Shen be the same person?

But he thought of many details uncontrollably.

He thought of the "Genuine Shen's Spearmanship" that Brother Shen gave him, thought of the other party's miraculous and omnipotent skills, remembered the other party's saying "Shen Budu himself will probably like you very much when he sees you", and even thought about it for a long time. A long time ago, the other party had just been rescued to the Zhenshan Sect, and after waking up, he asked in surprise, "Isn't this the upper spirit world?"...

The two figures in my mind gradually overlapped and gradually became one.

Li Xingyu suddenly understood why he liked Big Brother Shen so much. After a short time with him, he gave all his trust and dependence wholeheartedly, and even regarded him as his pursuit target, replacing Senior Shen's previous position in his heart...

It's because, Big Brother Shen, fits all his previous imaginations about Senior Shen.

Strong, confident, gentle, calm, generous, profound...

He had never met Shen Budu before, but he poured his best fantasies on him without hesitation, but it wasn't until he met Brother Shen that he realized that the person who was close to perfection in his fantasy actually existed.

It turned out to be no coincidence.

It turns out that they are really one person...

It is difficult to express in words the complex emotions. Li Xingyu only knows that he is extremely happy. He is so happy that he has been with the person he admires most for so long without knowing it. He is even more happy that Shen Budu is not dead. Even if he changes his identity, he Still alive and well, alive with confidence.

After the other people were shocked and excited, they also slowly accepted and digested this fact. Qiu Wanran covered her face in horror: "God, when I first met him...I really didn't want my life..."

"I seem to be too." Nie Weiyu looked disheartened, and scratched her hair in despair, "The key is who would have thought that he was a boss of that level...he has no airs at all..."

"Maybe it's because of this that he is liked by so many people." Gu Yanyu recalled that Shen Budu once tricked her into saying that he was a "fairy man who descended to earth", and he couldn't help laughing but was filled with emotion, "Senior Shen is really good to us, I think he doesn't want us to change our attitude towards him just because we know his identity."

If you purposely distance yourself from the opponent because of this, it may be a hurtful expression.

Song Yifan nodded and said: "That's right. He is Shen Budu, but he is also the 'Shen Du' who has been with us day and night."

There is no need to make things too complicated, Shen Budu treats them sincerely, and they only need to treat each other sincerely, that's enough.

-

When Shen Budu returned to the inn, it was already late at night.

Seeing his friend who had been away for a long time, Shen Budu was in a good mood, and walked back to his room with ease, only when he got closer did he realize that there was someone at the door.

Dressed in black, standing upright, bowing his head in silence, who is it not Xie Jianhuan?

He walked over a few steps, and asked in surprise, "Why aren't you asleep? What do you want me to do?"

Xie Jianhuan did not ignore the relaxed smile on Shen Budu's face when he asked the question.

Is it worth being happy to see that person?

The head of my heart was grabbed by something, and a handful of sour water was wrung out, which was astringent and uncomfortable.

He tried his best to control his emotions, and said: "Master didn't come back so late, I am worried."

He had tried very hard to calm himself down, but Shen Budu could still see the loss and sadness on his face that he tried his best to hide.

Well, it seems that there is still a little unwillingness and grievance that is not easy to detect.

Thinking of the appearance of the other party waiting alone by the door for an unknown amount of time, the image of a little black dog abandoned by its owner involuntarily popped up in Shen Budu's mind, angry and wronged, unwilling and helpless, he could only groan Stay at the door of the master, hoping to wait until the other party comes back.

Shen Budu's heart softened, suddenly it seemed that he had really done something excessive, and he apologized: "I'm sorry, I left in a hurry, so I didn't tell you in person."

Xie Jianhuan shook his head: "Master, there is no need to apologize."

"Anyway, it's my fault to make you worry." Shen Budu stretched out his hand and rubbed the big apprentice's head, "I won't do it next time."

Xie Jianhuan's heart was moved by this brief contact, but he was a little helpless and depressed: "Master, I'm not a child anymore."

When he was young, Shen Budu also liked to rub his head like this.

Even this is not his patent, Shen Budu often rubs the head of the second and third child...

It seems that he is no different from others, they are all Shen Budu's apprentices who treat everyone equally.

"Yo, the wings are hard, don't let you touch them?" Shen Budu snorted, Xie Jianhuan choked, and just about to say that's not the case, he heard the other party continue, "Okay, don't let you touch your head, can you change it?"

While he was slightly stunned, Shen Budu's warm fingers had already gently scratched his chin, and a smiling voice rang in his ears:

"Here, let's not touch it, huh?"

The author has something to say:

There seems to be something wrong with this conversation
