lead fades away

The next morning, Qingshi estimated that it was almost time, so he greeted Han Shuo, and then took Wangshuo to find Shen Shenzhou.

Shen Chenzhou had already tidied up, seeing that Qingshi came over on time, he smiled and joked a few words, and then went out with Qingshi.

But as soon as the two of them walked near the gate of the palace, Shen Chenzhou stopped in doubt, turned around and looked back.

"What's wrong?" Qing Shi asked.

"Someone seems to be staring at me." Shen Chenzhou frowned, then immediately shook his head and said, "It's okay, maybe someone saw us going out and took a few more glances."

Qing Shi moved his ears while turning his head, and soon heard that there was someone at the corner to the apse, but he couldn't see who it was because it was blocked by the wall.

"There are indeed people." Qing Shi said.

"Let's go first." Shen Chenzhou urged, "If he follows, then talk, and if he doesn't follow, just ignore it."

Qing Shi curled her lips, dragged Wang Shuo who was eager to bite the man out to her side, and followed Shen Chenzhou out of the Elder's Hall.

That person didn't follow, Qing Shi and Shen Chenzhou didn't think about it anymore, and walked straight to the mountain gate.

When they arrived in Fangshi, Shen Chenzhou directly led Qingshi and Wangshuo into a shop that opened a tea room and sold tea, asked for a private room facing the street, and there was no distinction between guests and hosts, the two sat down casually, Wangshuo I also found a chair and squatted on it.

After ordering a pot of good tea, without asking the tea doctor to serve him, he closed the door, Qing Shi picked up the teapot and began to share the tea, while Shen Chenzhou got up and opened the window next to him.

"Why do you open the window?" Qing Shi asked casually while bringing the first cup of tea that he had allocated to Wang Shuo.

"Let Chengbo know which private room I am in." Shen Chenzhou sat back on his chair.

"Cheng Bo?" Qing Shi raised his eyebrows.

"The person I want to meet today." Shen Chenzhou said with a smile, "He used to be the shopkeeper under my grandfather, but later... due to various reasons, he came to my room."

Qingshi raised the corner of his mouth and said meaningfully, "You should think about it, if you ask him to help me with something, he will have to stay with Xiantrumen, and he won't be able to go back to your Shen family for quite a while."

"He has been worrying about me for more than ten years, so it's time for him to come out and enjoy his happiness." Shen Chenzhou said with a faint smile.

Qing Shi didn't say much, picked up the second cup of tea and put it in front of Shen Shenzhou.

No one spoke, and the tea room quickly fell silent.Qing Shi and Shen Chenzhou sipped the spirit tea in their respective cups in silence, but Wang Shuo only drank half of the tea before rejecting it, bit out the soft cushion from his collar, put it on the floor of the tea room, and lay on his stomach. up.

Qing Shi glanced at it, reached out and took out a box of spiritual fruits from his treasure bag, opened the lid, put it next to Wangshuo's cushion, stood up, but found that Shen Chenzhou's expression was a little strange.

"What's wrong?" Qing Shi asked.

"At this time before, the Uncle Cheng had already come." Shen Chenzhou replied with a frown.

"Maybe something has delayed it, just wait a little longer." Qing Shi said.

Shen Chenzhou didn't answer the words, but it could be seen that his uneasiness was not relieved by light words of relief.

Qing Shi couldn't say anything more, patted Shen Shenzhou on the shoulder, and sat down beside him again.

Time passed bit by bit, seeing that the pot of tea had bottomed out, but the person Shen Shenzhou was waiting for still did not appear.

"I'll go get another pot of tea." Qing Shi stood up, but before he pushed the chair away, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

A gleam of joy flashed across Shen Chenzhou's face, he got up and was about to open the door, but was stopped by Qing Shi.

Shen Chenzhou couldn't help looking at Qingshi suspiciously, Qingshi shook his head, signaling him not to act rashly.

The knock on the door came so suddenly that Qingshi didn't even notice when the knocker appeared at the door, which made Qingshi have doubts.

The knock on the door rang again, not in a hurry, but louder than before.

Wang Shuo also stood up from his cushion, moved his nose, and walked to Qingshi's side, wondering, "That person outside has a stench, and...the smell of blood?"

"Be careful." Qingshi couldn't smell the bloody smell Wang Shuo said, but he could smell the slight stench. It was a smell of poison, usually smeared on weapons. Seeing blood seals the throat, Golden Core cultivator They may not be able to resist.

Shen Chenzhou has already recruited his usual spiritual weapon, the Linglong Mirror. His spiritual sword has not yet formed, and he has not even learned the fringe of swordsmanship. At this time, he can only continue to rely on the spiritual weapon and the five elements of magic.

Qingshi also took out the dagger that Han Shuo gave him, put it in his left hand, and held a dozen talismans in his right hand, squinting his eyes, staring at the door of the tea room.

"Guest, your tea is here!" There was another knock on the door, accompanied by a male voice.

Qing Shi immediately sneered. When he came in, he had noticed that there was only one shopkeeper and two guys who were almost tea doctors in this tea room, and the voices of the three of them were completely different from this person.

"We didn't ask for tea!" Qing Shi shouted back.

"Another customer specially ordered for the two of you. He said that they are two good friends. As long as the two of you meet, you can have tea... Zhiyi?" He refused to open the door for so long, and he didn't show any impatience.

"If that person has already paid, just throw it away!" Qing Shi said very bluntly.

"But, but..." The people outside the door obviously wanted to argue, but Qingshi wondered why this person neither walked away nor barged in.

The answer appeared quickly, and when everyone in the house was paying attention to the door of the tea room, a cold light suddenly flashed outside the open window, and a hidden weapon the size of a pinpoint pierced through the window like raindrops, directly attacking Shen Shenzhou.

Shen Chenzhou's attention was obviously not in the direction of the window, and Qing Shi couldn't take care of more for a while, so he quickly released his spiritual power, and threw a dozen talismans in his right hand towards Shen Chenzhou.

"Boom——" There was a loud noise, and most of the hidden weapons were blown into powder by Qingshi's various talismans. Only a few fish that slipped through the talisman tenaciously went through the talisman and landed on Shen Chenzhou's original position, but Shen Chenzhou's Shi Zao was shaken by the light talisman and backed up a few steps, and the corners of his mouth were bloodshot, but it was hard to tell whether he was hit by a hidden weapon or injured by the talisman.

Qing Shi didn't have time to check Shen Chenzhou's injuries at this time. At the moment when the explosion sounded, the person outside the door was no longer satisfied with standing outside and waiting, he kicked open the door of the tea room, holding a He threw the short blade at Shen Chenzhou.

At the same time, the cultivator outside the window also broke in, grabbing a stick-shaped spiritual weapon, and the target was also Shen Chenzhou.

"Wangsuo get out of the way!" Qing Shi immediately yelled at the stunned Wangsuo, and at the same time threw the dagger in his left hand at the person outside the door, grabbed a new talisman, and threw it at the person outside the window again. past.

Shen Chenzhou's reaction was much better than that of the stunned Wangsuo. While being shocked by the talisman, the Linglong mirror was already in front of him. When he saw an outsider attacking him, he immediately injected spiritual power to magnify the Linglong mirror several times. He directly hit that person head-on.But the man was obviously more afraid of the dagger thrown by him, and he didn't take Shen Chenzhou's reaction seriously at all. He dodged the dagger, and then slashed the dagger in his hand towards Shen Chenzhou's glazed mirror without hesitation.

With a sound of "crash", the glazed mirror was immediately thrown out, the mirror surface was shattered into a pile of fragments, the mirror itself also retracted to its original size, and fell to the ground with a bang.

The monk with the short blade did not change his attack, and continued to stab Shen Chenzhou's upper body.

"Beware of poison!" Qingshi reminded loudly that he had already used a talisman to block another monk at the window and could not chase him in. cannot be recovered in time.

Shen Chenzhou hurriedly dodged left and right, desperately avoiding the man's poisonous blade, but the tea room was so big, he was forced to the wall by the man after a few dodges.

Fortunately, Wang Shuo finally came to his senses at this moment, opened his mouth wide, and spewed out a ball of spiritual energy, smashing towards the monk holding the short blade.

Seeing this ball of spiritual power that was obviously not sprayed out by low-level spirit beasts, the cultivator with the short blade suddenly changed his face. Ignoring the Shen Chenzhou in front of him, he dodged and rushed out of the door, and at the same time directed at another cultivator. Shout out, "Let's go!"

But at this time, the wind suddenly changed, and a powerful spiritual consciousness enveloped the entire teahouse in an instant. Whether it was the two attacking monks, Qing Shi and Shen Chenzhou, or even Wang Shuo at the Jindan Stage, they were all covered by this spiritual consciousness. The coercion that was born was so suppressed that he couldn't move.

Immediately afterwards, there was another person in the tea room, with a hulking back and a hideous face, it was Han Shuo.

"Elder Han!" Qing Shi heaved a long sigh of relief, and took back all the talismans that had not been thrown away.

Over there, Shen Chenzhou also put away the two sword talismans in his hands, but Han Shuo's coercion had not yet been withdrawn, so he could only continue to stand against the wall, enduring the pain on his body.

Han Shuo didn't respond lightly, raised his hand and grabbed the two monks to his feet, but soon after, he found that the two monks were lifeless, with black blood dripping from the corners of their mouths, obviously they died of taking poison.

"Dead man?" Qing Shi raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Not necessarily." Han Shuo withdrew his consciousness, knelt down and rolled over the two of them a few times, and soon found an identical snake-shaped tattoo on their lower backs. Killer."

"Killer?" Qingshi couldn't help turning his head to look at Shen Shenzhou.

Shen Chenzhou replied with a wry smile of "I don't understand", but then he became startled as if thinking of something.

"Did you come here after him?" Han Shuo asked immediately.

"It should be." Qing Shi nodded, glanced at Wang Shuo who was still a little dazed, and said instead, "I don't know what's wrong with the shopkeeper and the guys outside, don't be killed by them."

"The killers in Wuzong Valley always only target one person, they won't hurt innocent people," Han Shuo said.

"Let's take a look, rest assured." Qing Shi said.

"It's better to call the people from the punishment hall directly, anyway, we have to clean up the aftermath." Han Shuo said, and glanced at Shen Chenzhou, "Is he injured?"

"Flesh wounds, it's okay." Shen Chenzhou came back to his senses and quickly waved his hands.

When he said this, Han Shuo ignored him, walked towards the window, and sent out a signal firework in the direction of Xian Chumen.

Qing Shi reached out and grabbed back the dagger that was stuck on the door frame, then walked to Shen Chenzhou's side, reached out and grabbed his pulse door to check.

"It's really nothing, it was all accidentally injured by your talisman." Shen Chenzhou laughed jokingly.

"If I don't throw away those talismans, you'll go to see the ancestor of Xianchumen, so you don't have time to complain to me." Qing Shi pouted.

"Yes, yes, thank you Junior Brother Qingshi for saving your life, oh, I have to thank this..." Shen Chenzhou turned his gaze to Wangshuo.

"Uncle Wangsuo, Patriarch Wangsuo, you can call it whatever you like." Qingshi interjected, and moved his finger away from Shen Shenzhou's pulse—it was indeed just a concussion injury, not as good as his two days ago It hurts badly.

"Then let me call you uncle. If uncle didn't act in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to make it to Elder Han's arrival." Said, Shen Chenzhou saluted Wangshuo respectfully.

Wang Shuo was obviously stunned, but soon raised his neck triumphantly, "It's nothing, you are nephew, I should save you."

Shen Chenzhou couldn't understand Wangsuo's barking, but just looking at Wangsuo's appearance, he knew that he was very satisfied with this thank you, so he immediately smiled and turned to look at Han Shuo at the window.

Han Shuo had already sent out the fireworks, closed the window, turned around and walked to the two dead monks, looked at the two, then looked up at Shen Chenzhou, and said coldly, "I haven't figured it out yet. Why did these two want to kill you?"

"Back to Elder Han, it should be... a member of my family." Shen Chenzhou lowered his eyelids.

"Your family paid you to kill you?!" Han Shuo couldn't help but raise his voice.

A wry smile appeared on Shen Chenzhou's face, but he didn't answer.

"When you return to the sect in a while, you can go directly to the first peak instead of going to my elder hall." Han Shuo said coldly.

Shen Chenzhou's face turned pale immediately, and Qing Shi quickly stepped forward, "Elder Han, you are..."

Han Shuo also realized that what he said was ambiguous, so he had no choice but to put on a straight face, "Of course I went back to the first peak to find Qixin to heal his injuries, so why don't I take care of him?!"

Only then did Shen Chenzhou heave a sigh of relief, and hurriedly bowed to Han Shuo, "I obey, thank you Elder Han for saving my life."

"Get up, you are my Xianchumen disciple, since I have met you, I can't do nothing about it." Han Shuo said indifferently, without mentioning why he appeared here.

But even if Han Shuo didn't say anything, Qingshi could guess that he must have followed him, but the distance may be a bit far, such as stepping on his dragon's teeth and standing in the sky a thousand feet high, otherwise he wouldn't have waited for everyone to come. Appeared ready to run.

Not long after, Huang Baichuan, the head of the punishment hall, rushed over with a few foundation-building disciples.Because the signal contained Han Shuo's identity mark, although he came quickly, he was not nervous, and he didn't call other high-level monks above the Jindan stage to accompany him.

He led his disciples to pay a visit to Han Shuo, Huang Baichuan came forward to inquire, Han Shuo said a few words to him with the technique of sound transmission, Huang Baichuan bowed and retreated, commanded several disciples to remove the two corpses on the ground, and Wake up the shopkeeper who is sleeping in the lobby, and interrogate him on the spot.

Han Shuo didn't leave Qingshi and Shen Chenzhou to Huang Baichuan for questioning, he led them out of the tea room, took out the flying car that he had not returned to Gu Xian, stuffed the two of them in, and then boarded the car himself. Get the car out and start it.

Because of Han Shuo's presence, Qing Shi and Shen Chenzhou didn't play and laugh as usual, not to mention that Shen Shenzhou was still injured, although it wasn't serious, it hurt enough to make him grin his teeth, and he couldn't think of amused.

At this moment, Wang Shuo also seemed to remember that his performance just now was actually very embarrassing, he no longer had the pride of being thanked by Shen Shenzhou, and honestly huddled in the corner, looking frustrated and frustrated.

Although Qing Shi is also uncomfortable because he is afraid of heights and space, he even doesn't want to open his mouth, but there are some things that he has no chance to say if he doesn't say them.Glancing at Han Shuo who started to close his eyes and doze off after getting in the car, Qingshi rolled his eyes, hugged Shen Shenzhou's shoulders, and said in a voice that was not loud enough for Han Shuo on the opposite side to hear clearly, "Some Elder Han is hard to say, so I have to speak for him."

Shen Chenzhou immediately showed a look of astonishment, obviously he didn't understand why Qingshi made such a tone suddenly.

"You said that these two people might be hired by your family to kill you, but after all, it happened on the territory of Xiantrumen, and you are also a disciple of Xiantrumen now." Qingshi continued, "On the surface Look, this is a crooked attack on the disciples of Xianchumen, and it is a serious provocation to me, Xianchumen. It is a big deal! If you can produce evidence that your family members paid for the murder, that's all right, senior uncle and senior brother of Xingtang They can also save a lot of hard work, but everyone knows that you are just a branch of the Shen family, and there is only your old brother in the family, and there is no one else, so this matter is strange——Where did your family come from? Could it be that you are a direct descendant of the Shen family? Speaking of you, a side disciple of the only Miao Miao, what is there that is worthy of being coveted by other direct descendants, and you even have to hire a killer to deal with you?"

The half-truth and half-false beating reminder made Shen Chenzhou's face change again and again, before he could explain, Qing Shi said again, "You can explain, everything is easy to say, if you can't, hehe, then the sect can only make it clear. This matter should be regarded as a dispute between good and evil, and should be investigated to the end."

"Junior brother Qingshi, I understand." Shen Chenzhou looked into Qingshi's eyes and nodded seriously.

"That's good." Qing Shi smiled slightly, and reminded again, "Don't do anything wrong in your life, and you won't be surprised when you knock on the door in the middle of the night, right?"

Shen Chenzhou couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, "Junior Brother Qingshi is absolutely right."

Qing Shi didn't say any more, and the car seemed to have arrived at the place, and began to slowly descend, and soon landed on the ground.

"Go down." Han Shuo opened the car door, and not far away was the Golden Luan Hall on the first peak.

Qingshi immediately let go of Shen Chenzhou's shoulders, let him stand up, solemnly bowed to Han Shuo, and then jumped out of the car.

Shen Chenzhou who got out of the car was about to give another farewell ceremony, but saw Qingshi's mouth opening and closing, although there was no sound coming out, it was obviously passing a message to him.

--be honest.

Shen Chenzhou was stunned for a moment, then understood the meaning of Qingshi, and immediately bowed to Han Shuo calmly, and waited for the car to close the door and take off, then turned and walked towards the Jinluan Hall.

On the other hand, when the car closed and took off again, the first thing Han Shuo did was to pull Qingshi into his arms, put his wrist around his neck, and at the same time said coldly, "Don't grab it with your hands." Do you feel uncomfortable if you order something?"

"That's right." Qing Shi grinned, pulled his hand away from Han Shuo's neck, turned to wrap his arms around his upper body, and retracted his arm forcefully, "In this case, even if you fall, you will still have someone to accompany you." no?"

"Okay." Han Shuo snorted coldly, "If you make me angry again someday, I'll take you to the sky, and let's taste what it feels like to fall together."

Qing Shi froze immediately, raised his head cautiously, and asked tentatively, "You're not telling the truth, are you?"

"What do you think?" Han Shuo asked calmly.

"Hehe." Qingshi laughed dryly, quickly put his arms around Han Shuo's neck again, and put it on Han Shuo's neck flatteringly, "Is it okay not to make you angry?"

Han Shuo sneered, apparently in disbelief, but his arms completely wrapped around Qingshi, hugging him even tighter.

After a while, Han Shuo sighed inaudibly, and said softly, "You, just don't worry me."
