Take a Sigh
Chapter 68
"As long as Master is willing, my world will always be open to Master."
After hearing Shen Zhuo's words, Ling Shuangxue's pupils shrank suddenly, and her palms pressed|pressed on her heart, and her heart beat several beats faster.He pretended to push Shen Zhuo away as if nothing had happened, and said, "Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"
"Because I'm afraid I'll forget it, so I have to tell Master in time." Shen Zhuo didn't push forward, and didn't continue to lean up after being pushed away by Ling Shuangxue, but stood by his side in a regular manner, with a shallow smile on his face Meaning, the eyes are deep.
Ling Shuangxue was silent, and took a few steps forward. Perhaps she had an answer to the endless twists and turns in her heart, and said calmly: "Got it."
Three simple words are the best response to Shen Zhuo.
Shen Zhuo is willing to open his heart to Ling Shuangxue and share everything about himself with him.Perhaps Ling Shuangxue was still standing outside his world, but he accepted Shen Zhuo's invitation and could walk in at any time.
Shen Zhuo's world is the human world, the world of mortals, and perhaps Ling Shuangxue's desire to escape for thousands of years.Compared with Ling Shuangxue's blankness, his life is colorful and full of temptations.Let people touch it a little, and they can't extricate themselves.
In the courtyard, Bai Yan was entrenched on the medicinal materials, picking and choosing among those things, but in the end he still didn't like any of them, and radiated his own flames discouragedly.
Shen Zhuo took it back in time, fearing that she would get angry and burn the surrounding area with flames.She is life, but also brings death.
This time Shen Zhuo didn't hold back Bai Yan, she happily slipped into Shen Zhuo's body, had fun in his body, looked at this and that, and even went to the dantian to find the beast fire to show off.
Shen Zhuo ignored her and re-examined the medicinal materials. All the years met the requirements of the basic pill, and the quality was even improved a little because of Bai Yan.
"With these, my father can also breathe a sigh of relief." The matter of medicinal materials is settled, and the order is not a problem.
The refining of these basic pills does not take time, and the disciples of the Yaofang can do it all in a day or two.
Shen Zhuo went to the alchemy room in front to invite Wu Wei, handed the refined medicinal materials to him, and said with a smile: "Elder Wu, the rest of alchemy will be hard on you."
Wu Wei looked at the scene in front of him and was speechless in surprise.If it wasn't for Shen Zhuo and Ling Shuangxue who had never left in the yard, and the pile of medicinal materials was still in the same place just now, exactly, he would have thought that Shen Zhuo had bought a new batch of medicinal materials.
"How did you do this?" Wu Wei's inner shock could not be calmed down for a long time. He had never heard that someone could produce medicinal materials with insufficient age.
Shen Zhuo said vaguely: "Occasionally there is a chance, and it happens to be able to solve this kind of thing."
As soon as Wu Wei heard this, he knew that Shen Zhuo didn't want to say more. In the past, he would definitely have asked to the end, but today it was rare for him to understand and didn't ask.
He knew in his heart that no matter what method Shen Zhuo used, it would be beneficial to the Shen family and himself.
After finishing the medicinal materials, Shen Zhuo saw that Shen Le hadn't woken up yet, so he let Jiaojiao stay here. If there are people who don't have eyesight and go back and forth, Jiaojiao doesn't have to be polite to them.
Jiaojiao agreed, and turned her head to look at Ling Shuangxue eagerly.
Ling Shuangxue said to Shen Zhuo: "The food you took away this morning was bought for Jiaojiao, return it."
Shen Zhuo thought of the string hanging around Jiaojiao's neck this morning, and with a slight movement of consciousness, he took the things out of the small world and put them all beside Jiaojiao.Jiaojiao happily picked it up, flicked her tail to show Shen Zhuo a back view, and went to eat by herself.
Wu Wei still wanted to see something from the pile of medicinal materials in the research institute.
Shen Zhuo greeted him and was about to leave, but Wu Wei waved his hand without raising his head to show that he knew.
Ling Shuangxue stood on the porch, looking thoughtfully at his back with his head stuck in the herbs.Just now he watched Shen Yiwen and the others make trouble, Shen Yiwen provoked everywhere, and finally forced Wu Wei to take action.But the moment Wu Wei made his move, the little man hiding in the crowd was also ready to do it.
Ling Shuangxue didn't think that he was going to help Shen Yiwen, on the contrary, his goal was more like Wu Wei.Shen Yiwen fell into the water, and the others couldn't react in time, so it was this person who came forward to save people.He didn't say a word from beginning to end, but his eyes made people uncomfortable.
Wu Wei manages the Shen family's pharmacy. For the Shen family, if something happens to him, it will definitely be a big blow.But he still has a violent temper, even if he is reminded, he will not guard against it, but will go forward without fear.
It's no wonder that Shen Yiwen is unscrupulous, as long as Wu Wei is the first to act, they will have a way to shirk responsibility for everything.
Ling Shuangxue mentioned this to Shen Zhuo, asking him to pay more attention.
Most pharmacists focus more on refining medicine, and they are not as good as dedicated practitioners in terms of practice, so they will inevitably suffer when confronting others.This is especially true for Wu Wei. He is obsessed with alchemy and doesn't have much combat experience. It may be even more difficult to parry when encountering a sneak attack.
Shen Zhuo thought for a while, then went back to explain to Jiaojiao, and left Jiaojiao here.
Most of the things in the pharmacy are done by Wu Wei himself, and if he is too prominent, he is a living target.But as long as there are existences more prominent than him, the danger he faces will be relatively reduced.
Give Shen Zhuo some time, and he will focus all his attention on himself, reducing the danger to others.
The few pharmacies left by the Shen family on the bright side are a little secluded and not in a busy city. Most of the people who come to the door are repeat customers. Every day, every kind of medicine is provided in fixed quantities. It is easy to maintain the operation of the Shen family. Can.
The person who came to make trouble this time was the eldest uncle's youngest son, who was the eighth eldest. According to his seniority, Shen Zhuo had to call him the eighth uncle, and he was also Shen Yiwen's biological father.
The family was dispatched, but the uncle's family was nowhere to be seen. Presumably, they were pawned as guns to drive them forward.
When Shen Zhuo and Ling Shuangxue arrived, the matter had already been resolved.Shen Xiao left room for them to maneuver in consideration of brotherhood, but they pushed forward. Unfortunately, Ye Lanxi and Shen Zhuo came here after hearing the news.
She has a tough temper. In the words of my uncle, she is kind on the surface, but actually has a cold heart.Eighth Uncle's method against Shen Xiao didn't work, she just showed her weapon and saw the truth.
Where is Uncle Ba's opponent?At last he walked away in disgrace.
They made trouble and overturned some seats when they came, and now everyone was cleaning them up, Ye Lanxi sat in the middle of the lobby with a chair, Shen Xiao stood behind her and squeezed her shoulders, the husband and wife enjoyed themselves happily.
The sister-in-law counted the losses in the shop with an abacus, and made a list and handed it to Ye Lanxi.
"Sister-in-law, the money this time plus the previous odds and ends, just makes up a whole number. Do you think it's time to get it back now, or after a while?"
Uncle Ba and the others didn't make trouble once or twice. Ye Lanxi didn't seem to care too much about them on the surface, but in fact, they kept a record of every account for them, and waited to make up a whole number to get them back together.
The sister-in-law is in charge of the accounts of the shop, and she hit it off with Ye Lanxi. The accounts are accurate to the bricks and tiles, every centimeter, and no detail is missed.
Ye Lanxi took out the list of several times and stacked it in his hand, looked at it, got up and said: "Since we have made it all together, let the third brother and I go for a walk. Qing Yun, I will leave it to you here." You cleaned up."
The sister-in-law smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, when you come back, this place will definitely be restored to its original state, and it will be exactly the same."
Ye Lanxi was going to collect debts, but the third uncle stood up from the corner without saying a word, holding his own weapon in his hand.He is good at using a knife, using a lancet.
Shen Xiao walked around from behind the chair and said, "I'll go too."
"Where are you going?" Ye Lanxi looked at him and said, "Do you know how to fight? Didn't you say that something happened to the pharmacy and you have to deal with it?"
As a pharmacist, Shen Xiao has superb attainments and a strong cultivation base, but he is useless at the first level in fighting.Ye Lanxi clearly wrote on his face that he was holding back, and drove him to the pharmacy to do his own business.
Shen Xiao was wronged and wronged: "I don't worry, you have always disliked elder brother, if you meet, I'm afraid you will suffer."
"It doesn't matter who will suffer when you meet?" Ye Lanxi sneered. When she was a family, she didn't care about Shen Xiao's face. Now it's not a family, and she won't be restrained.
"If father is worried, then let me accompany mother." Shen Zhuo rushed to the place stepping forward, seeing Shen Xiao's expression of reluctance, he stood up in time.
He and the third uncle and auntie nodded in greeting, then looked at Ye Lanxi, and said obediently: "Mother, take me there. It just so happens that I haven't seen my uncle and uncle for many years. I wonder if they are in good health?"
Shen Zhuo spoke words of concern, but his smile didn't reach his eyes, showing a sense of coldness.
Ye Lanxi had a good talk with Shen Zhuo in the morning, and she was aware of her son's strength, so she didn't refuse immediately, and said: "Then go, mother will take you to visit your uncle, and let him have some fun."
Shen Xiao shivered, he felt that what his wife said was having fun, but what she meant was to send someone to die.The daughter-in-law didn't take him to play, but brought her son with her. Could it be that he is not as good as his own son?
Ye Lanxi didn't care about Shen Xiao's thoughts, and left with her hands.Ling Shuangxue stood beside Shen Zhuo, walking side by side with Shen Zhuo.
Shen Xiao saw it, rubbed his eyes, and thought, "Should I stop the Venerable?"
But after thinking about it, if the Venerable is not willing to go, he must have stayed, so why should he bother?
On the way to Uncle Uncle's mansion, Shen Zhuo asked the reason for the trouble, Ye Lanxi said: "What else? I just want your father to unblock the Shen family's house. When your father and I decided to retreat, Seal all the things of the Shen family in the mansion, and then give the ownership of the house to your uncle. Bet it out at the price of tens of millions of spirit stones, and they dare not go to your uncle, so they have to come here to play wild."
The foundation of the Shen family is still in the original mansion, and Shen Xiao and the others did not take anything with them when they retreated, so there were signs of the Shen family's rapid decline.This matter was not concealed enough, and the other family members also guessed some, so they were reluctant.
But to be honest, when the other two chose to leave, Shen Xiao had already let them take away their share, and did not withhold it, so he was worthy of these two.
What is left of the Shen family's mansion now is the family business established by Shen Zhuo's grandfather and Shen Xiao, and does not belong to outsiders.
Ye Lanxi's expression was serious, she turned her head to look at her son beside her, he was already an adult, he was no longer the young master who hid under her and Shen Xiao's wings and needed their protection.
"Our Shen family had a great career at the beginning, and it aspired to be the head of the Taoist family. Outsiders seemed to have a great reputation, but in fact, internal conflicts have accumulated over time and cannot be reconciled. Your father and I are only one child of yours. In the future, the family business will definitely fall on the Some people in you are sure of this, and they will take the opportunity to attack you when you are in a slump. Now that you are back, you also know that you are wrong. It is time to show those people that our Shen family can bend and stretch. It is to let them three In five years, our Shen family still has a place in the alchemy world."
The withdrawal of Shen Xiao and Ye Lanxi did not make the Shen family fall to the bottom, on the contrary, they chose to retreat when the conflict was most acute, and minimized the loss.
Everyone wants to fight for a breath, but how to fight for this breath to maximize the benefits?It's a pleasure to show off your anger for a while, but how will the mess after that end?
Ye Lanxi is a casual cultivator. She has walked one step at a time, so what hardships have she suffered?What trouble did you encounter?She can support the glory and wealth, and she can also put down her figure.
Shen Zhuo understood what Ye Lanxi meant, and said, "Don't worry, mother, I know what's going on."
Ye Lanxi said with relief: "Go back and say hello to your father, find a good time, and we will unseal the Shen family's mansion. The storm that failed to break out a few years ago has been suppressed for long enough, it is time to let it break Get up. This time we are together as a family and face it together."
Dabogong's family moved to the bustling area of Huajin City, just two streets away from the original mansion, and they can face each other from a high place.
It's still early at this moment, and the street is very lively, monks from all over the world are mixed together, you come and go, so happy.Ye Lanxi walked through the street with a group of people, with big goals and easy to attract the attention of others.
In Huajin City, who doesn't know the Shen family?Don't know Ye Lanxi?
When they saw this, they knew that there was excitement to watch, but not everyone could watch such excitement.
For a while, everyone looked up and guessed what Ye Lanxi wanted to do.When they saw clearly the direction Ye Lanxi was going, they were even more surprised.
Among the crowd of onlookers, some people retreated quietly, turned around and entered the Wanbao Building in Huajincheng, in a hurry, as if something was chasing after them.
Many eyes gathered together, Ling Shuangxue gathered up her cloak, the fluffy white down covered half of her face, her long hair was half loose and hanging by her ears, making it difficult for people to see her appearance clearly for a while.He lowered his sense of presence, trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.
Uncle Ba and Shen Yiwen, who went to the shop to make trouble, had just entered the door with their front and back feet, before their buttocks touched the bench, and Ye Lanxi led someone to knock on the door with their back feet.
In front of her uncle, she is a junior, so she can be regarded as giving the other party enough face to avoid being offended.
The disciples who came to open the door were a little surprised. It was a well-known fact that they and Shen Xiao had been at odds over the years. They occasionally went to cause trouble for Shen Xiao and the others, and Shen Xiao didn't bother to come to the door to inquire.I don't know which one to sing today, but Ye Lanxi brought the people here swaggeringly.
The disciple who opened the door couldn't be the master. He looked at the group of people behind Ye Lanxi and knew that the visitors were not good, so he didn't even dare to let them in, and quickly closed the door again.
Ye Lanxi didn't care if the door was closed, she waited patiently outside for a while, the door opened soon, this time the uncle came out.He is beautiful and full of glory and wealth.But I don't know if the life is too comfortable, a little fat, not as young and vigorous as before.
When others saw Ye Lanxi, it was as if they had seen a ghost, but he was kind, with a smile on his face, as if he had no intentions, he cupped his hands to welcome him, and said: "I said that there was a distinguished visitor at home, but I didn't expect it to be my brother and sister. Although we are still in the same place these years, we have very little contact with each other, it is rare for you to come to the door today, if I am a big brother, if there is any place where the hospitality is not good, please forgive me."
"Brother, you are welcome." Ye Lanxi avoided the uncle's approaching hand without any trace, and said: "I have something to talk about today, but I have to speak outside to make it clear. I won't enter the threshold of your house." .”
Shen Zhuo noticed his mother's displeasure, and then looked at the way his uncle looked at her, his face immediately became gloomy.When I was a child, the tricks in the adult world had already been seen. Now that the family is separated, the uncle is even more unscrupulous.
Shen Zhuo only felt a rush of blood rushing into his heart. He clenched his fists, squeezed forward with a smile on his face, grabbed his uncle's hand, and said: "Uncle, I haven't seen you for many years, do you still remember me? I came to visit with my mother and my third uncle, and I am really flattered that my uncle is so polite."
Shen Zhuo clenched his uncle's hand, emphasizing that Ye Lanxi did not come alone.A younger sibling, a brother, is it true that the uncle's eyes are so lame that he only sees Ye Lanxi?
The strength from his hand carried the anger of the young man, the uncle looked up at Shen Zhuo, and pretended to be surprised: "So it was Ah Zhuo, when did you come back? Why didn't you notify the uncle? Although we didn't live together, But it’s rare for you to go home once, so there’s no shortage of welcome banquets.”
Shen Zhuo didn't come back after he got into a catastrophe. Some people in Huajincheng were no strangers to him. Now when they heard the name with stretched ears, they were stunned for a moment before they realized it, with different expressions.
Some people taunted in a low voice with disdain, while some gloated and lifted the bench to wait for the good show to begin.
Shen Zhuo's expression was as usual, the smile on his face seemed to be engraved on it, he looked kind, but he had no emotion in reality.
Uncle acted with him, and he didn't mind accepting the move, so he asked, "Don't you know I'm back?"
The uncle paused, not sure what Shen Zhuo meant by asking this question.He just got home yesterday, even if the uncle said he didn't know, it was normal.
Shen Zhuo didn't wait for him to speak, and said again: "But the third brother knows that I'm back. He had a little trouble with me at the medicine shop just now, and said he wanted me to look good. I haven't been a younger brother for some years. When I came back, I don’t know much about the separation of your families, but we are brothers after all, if I do something wrong to make third brother unhappy, please ask uncle to mediate for us.”
Shen Zhuo was very angry, he said that the split of the Shen family was a division of the family, and that Shen Yiwen went to the pharmacy to make troubles as a conflict between the two brothers, and he took the responsibility on himself. He seemed to be a brotherly brother, very friendly.
But he didn't say it clearly, and the group of people who watched the excitement could guess it, after all, this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice.
The uncle's eyelids twitched, and he took his hand out of Shen Zhuo's grip. Even though the back of his hand was a lot red, his face was still very kind, and he said: "Brother, do you have an overnight feud? Ah Zhuo, don't worry, I will let you Your eighth uncle brought Shen Yiwen to your house to apologize to you."
As soon as the uncle said this, it seemed that Shen Zhuo was unrelenting and aggressive.
With a smile on Shen Zhuo's face, he scolded the old fox in his heart: "Thank you uncle, I know that uncle has always been the most fair person in our family, no matter what it is, if it is in your hands, it will be a steelyard with both ends level. "
Shen Zhuo said compliments, but the uncle didn't dare to agree, he always felt that behind Shen Zhuo's words was a big pit, waiting for him to jump into.He looked over Shen Zhuo and glanced at Ye Lanxi, seeing that she had no smile on her face, and her expression was serious, so he knew that the visitor was not kind.
Shen Zhuo also mentioned Shen Yiwen just now, could it be that the matter of the medicine workshop has been succeeded?
The uncle was a little uncertain, Shen Yiwen and the eighth uncle had just arrived home, and they hadn't had time to meet.But it must be a big deal for Ye Lanxi to rush over with people. Apart from Wu Wei's accident, the uncle can't think of any other reason.
Since this is the case, it will be much easier to handle.The uncle regained the dominance in an instant, and Wu Wei had a violent temper, and he couldn't help but strike at the slightest provocation.As long as he strikes first, his skills are not as good as others and he is injured. Uncle has the ability to defend himself.
He pretended to respond to Shen Zhuo's compliment, turned sideways to give way to the door, and said: "One family does not talk about two families. Since we have all arrived at the door, everyone should not stand stupidly outside the door. Let's all go in and talk."
"It's fine to enter the house. Uncle, why don't you invite the third brother and the third uncle out, just let the neighbors and you be a witness." Shen Zhuo observed the changes in the expression of the uncle, and saw that he gradually showed the appearance of being sure of winning. He guessed that he wanted to Forked.
He mentioned the matter between himself and Shen Yiwen first because he was a junior, and he couldn't blame Eighth Uncle right away. In comparison, Shen Yiwen was a good topic to start.
If the uncle thinks of other aspects because of this, it has nothing to do with him.
Seeing Shen Zhuo's refusal, the uncle didn't panic, but instead had a slightly serious expression, saying: "You can't show your family ugliness to the outside world. It's not good for you to let the neighbors come and see."
"What's wrong?" Shen Zhuo said: "Brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Since it is clear, then clear it thoroughly. Uncle doesn't know, right? Uncle Eighth went to my shop to play tricks again today. All this before and after After coming down so many times, the compensation alone is a big sum. If it is less, we don't care about it, but... I know that uncle is the most fair person, so we brought the bill and asked him to listen Hear it, judge it."
Shen Zhuo put a high hat on his uncle, deliberately said that he didn't know about it, and seemed to pick him out, but actually wanted him to be inconvenient to intervene to defend Ba Shu.
Since you don't know, you have to look like you don't know. If you say you know something, it will be even more ugly in front of everyone.
The uncle never expected that the situation would turn around and Ye Lanxi came to ask for money.
Over the years, they have made a lot of bets on the Shen family's shop, both openly and secretly. The eighth uncle alone has smashed a lot of times, and Shen Xiao and Ye Lanxi have never seen a word before, and the relationship is all accumulated and liquidated.
People in Huajincheng have seen such a thing as smashing a store, and they can't blame it even if they want to.
The uncle wanted to persuade Shen Zhuo and the others to come in, but Shen Zhuo didn't accept his tricks, instead he said cheerfully: "The eighth uncle is not out at the moment, but it doesn't matter, or uncle should listen to the details of the bill first. I have a number in my heart."
After speaking, Shen Zhuo turned to Ye Lanxi to ask for the bill. Seeing Ye Lanxi pull out a stack of papers, the corners of the uncle's eyes twitched.This is a real settlement, there is no ambiguity at all.
"Ah Zhuo, just show me the account, don't need to read it." The uncle remembered that the person who settled the accounts in the shop was my sister-in-law. Eight counted what went up?
The uncle didn't dare to lose this man, and while teaching people to call the old eight out, he held Shen Zhuo steady, wanting what he had in his hands.
As long as this thing is in his hands, he will play casually, without evidence, who dares to say a word?
Shen Zhuo looked at his uncle with the bill, and handed over the bill after hearing his words.The uncle was overjoyed, but Shen Zhuo suddenly withdrew his hand and said, "Since we want all the neighbors to be witnesses, it's not appropriate to just show it to the uncle, it's better to read it aloud so that everyone can hear it."
Shen Zhuo said, and handed the bill to the third uncle.
Although Third Uncle doesn't talk much and has a dull personality, but he has a high level of cultivation and a loud voice, which is very suitable for reading bills.Seeing that he spread out the bill and was about to speak with a blank face, the uncle stopped immediately.
The uncle is different from the eighth uncle. He is a man who knows how to behave in front of others, and he has built a good reputation. The most important thing is his face.In recent years, he has also been a face-saving hero to Shen Xiao and his wife, maintaining the image of a good big brother.
This time the eighth uncle got into trouble, they are under the same roof, the eighth uncle has no face, how can he have face?
Originally, smashing the store could be regarded as a conflict between brothers, a little squabbling is harmless.But when it comes to large compensation, this is no small matter.
"Sister and sister, the eighth brother is really wrong. Give me the number, and I will definitely ask him to bring you the spirit stone." The uncle didn't talk to Shen Zhuo this time, but passed Shen Zhuo and Ye Lanxi Talking in a friendly manner, it's like standing on Ye Lanxi's side, trying to vent her anger for her.
Seeing this, Shen Zhuo silently retreated to Ling Shuangxue's side.If the uncle wants to talk to his mother, let him talk.But if he still dares to look at his mother with the eyes just now, don't blame him for being cruel.
Ye Lanxi was already at odds with her uncle, so when he asked her, he was asking the wrong person.
"Brother, it's not that I can't trust you, but I can't trust the eighth brother. I'm afraid that if you turn around, you will have nothing to say." Ye Lanxi said coldly, with a look of disgust showing involuntarily.
"We've all come here. With uncle's justice, we will definitely not let us return empty-handed." Shen Zhuo echoed in a timely manner, and the people around whispered, all of them were full of curiosity about the so-called bill.
The third uncle looked at Ye Lanxi, as long as Ye Lanxi opened his mouth, he would be able to hear the whole street reading.
The uncle smiled but didn't smile, and the two sides persisted in place.The uncle rubbed his hands in embarrassment, complaining that the eighth uncle came out slowly, when he heard the eighth uncle's voice from inside the door.
He was very disdainful, walked out in a dawdly manner, and said contemptuously: "Sister-in-law, is your family unable to survive? I will count this spirit stone with me? I am a big brother, and I don't care about you, a woman." If you want spirit stones, I'll give you some, just treat the beggars as my kindness."
Uncle Ba didn't have a straight line, he leaned slantly against the pillar at the door, he looked like a thug in the city, without any demeanor.
Ye Lanxi glanced at him, snorted coldly, and gave third uncle a look.
When the uncle saw this, the secret passage was broken, and he used ghost shadow tricks to grab what was in the hands of the third uncle.Once he got his hands on it, pre-emptively took the bills and sent them away with a few words.There is no account, so they have the final say?
Shen Zhuo had been guarding against him all the time, the moment he made a move, he stopped him with a flicker of his figure, and clamped his wrist again with a smile.In the eyes of outsiders, they thought they had a good relationship.
The uncle was startled, Shen Zhuo's change made him unexpected.
Judging from Shen Zhuo's ability to restrict him, where is he still the same as before?
"Uncle, I know that your family has a great career, and it's not a big deal to have thousands of spirit stones in your hands. In this case, let's listen to it and make a total of it, so that Uncle Ba will show kindness." Shen Zhuo's voice sank , the smile on his face gradually turned cold.
The third uncle started to settle the accounts without changing his face. Unlike ordinary bills, the sister-in-law wrote not only what the eighth uncle smashed, but also who the eighth uncle brought to smash it and why.
This is no longer just a bill, but Uncle Ba's personal "heroic deeds", so when everyone heard that Uncle Ba was drunk and drunk, and brought a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect to the market, because he couldn't do it and couldn't buy it. When Zhuangyang Pill became angry from embarrassment, he knew that this matter was not easy.
Eighth Uncle himself heard something was wrong, everything he did was to make Shen Xiao unhappy, but when he said it from other people's mouths, it turned out that he didn't care about the seriousness of those fans and confidants.
Shen Zhuo was also taken aback, then laughed out loud, and said to his uncle: "I didn't realize that my eighth uncle's life is so rich and colorful, but he is not old enough."
The uncle's face turned green with anger, and he had to maintain a smirk, but his face turned ferocious.
He waved back Shen Zhuo, and said angrily with a flick of his sleeves: "That's enough, brother and sister, you give me the number, and the elder brother asks the eighth brother to pay you back, and it will definitely be half of your money."
The uncle's voice became ruthless, and his words seemed more believable.
Ye Lanxi raised her eyes to look at him, and said, "Third brother, read the little sister's calculation to the eldest brother."
The third uncle quickly turned to the last page, and said: "The above damages the pills, pill furnace, formations, and house repairs...a total of 370 middle-grade spirit stones."
"Fart, you guys are talking nonsense, the lion opened your mouth." Eighth Uncle had a look of disdain before, but now he heard the total jump on the spot and scolded.
Even the uncle looked over in surprise, and said with a smirk: "Sister and brother, is this a miscalculation?"
Five thousand, 370 million and forty thousand middle-grade spirit stones is not a small amount, if it is a low-grade spirit stone, it can be said.
The crowd of onlookers was also whispering, and some were dumbfounded.After all, the numbers read at the beginning were normal. According to this situation, it is impossible to add middle grades.
The third uncle flipped through the bill, and said solemnly: "It's written here, because the eighth brother boasted in front of his pink confidant that he took anything from our shop, and it was his. So they took away ten six-grade Pills, three seventh-grade pills, and one profound pill."
The Shen family's shop only sells simple basic pills, but it doesn't mean that there are no high-level pills.
As soon as the third uncle said this, there was an uproar around him. Other things might not be worth much, but these high-level pills are not expensive.
Uncle Ba's cold sweat broke out immediately, and he quibbled: "I was just talking at the time, can this also be blamed on me?"
It's just a word, it's an invisible admission of this matter, the uncle scolded a fool, now there is no excuse to redeem it.
With sharp eyes, Ye Lanxi asked back: "Is there any problem with you for the things you took with someone?"
Shen Zhuo went to the third uncle and took the bill. The unread part was also very exciting. He took a few thin pages, ignored the eighth uncle, and said coolly, "Uncle, what do you think?"
The uncle was dizzy with anger, and said: "Sisters and sisters, let alone the eighth brother, even our whole family can't take it out all at once. Why don't I send someone to send it to you tomorrow?"
"Okay." Shen Zhuo agreed before Ye Lanxi, raised the bill in his hand, and said, "I believe Uncle Ba doesn't want these things to spread all over Huajin City."
This is a blatant threat, the accounts are secondary, and those glorious deeds are the highlight.
When the people around heard it, their hearts were itchy and unbearable, wishing they could get those few pieces of paper now and gossip with each other.
"Master Shen, it's really interesting for me to look at these papers of yours. Otherwise, I'll give you 370 million middle-grade spirit stones, and you give me this bill, and let me and you all review it."
Amidst the discussion, one person spoke suddenly, attracting everyone's attention.Hearing the sound, he looked like a young man with good facial features, well-dressed, with a freehand brush embroidered on his clothes.
That pen reveals the identity of the young man, a newly-emerged upper-class force, their sect has nothing special, so they just write small gossip about Taoism for everyone to relieve their boredom in the boring practice of Taoism.
If Eighth Uncle's sex bill really falls into the young man's hands, I'm afraid he will be the talk of everyone in the next few years.
The young man's move is simply a divine assist, and the eighth uncle wants to renege on his debt, and the uncle can't afford to lose this man.So why did he come out to take care of this today?Wouldn't it be better if he pretended not to know?The uncle regretted it unceasingly.
"Siblings, I'll give you the Lingshi right now." The uncle took a breath of anger in his heart, he walked up to the eighth uncle, and dragged people around to discuss something.
The eighth uncle was like a cripple beaten by Shuang, dejected, not daring to fart, and obediently handed over the spirit stone on his hand.He has not been restrained by anyone these years, and he has accumulated a lot of savings despite being a domineering.But this large sum was too much, enough for him to vomit blood from heartache, and be so angry that he could not sleep or eat for days and nights.
The uncle came with a storage bag, Shen Zhuo didn't give him a chance to get close to Ye Lanxi, he came over to take it by himself, with a smile on his face, thanking the uncle for being fair, and lightly tapped the Lingshi with his spiritual sense After confirming that the number is not bad, hand it over to Ye Lanxi.
"Since the matter has been resolved, then we won't bother you any more. Goodbye, uncle." Shen Zhuo waved to his uncle and left without hesitation.
The onlookers still couldn't finish it, so the uncle gave Uncle Ba a hard look, and brought him in through the door.Then the door closed with a bang, as if it was the curtain call of the story.
"It's a good show, don't you think?" The young man who spoke for Shen Zhuo just now picked up the teacup on the table and looked up at the blind corner of everyone's sight. There was a black figure shrouded in shadows, which made people see unclear.
The young man moved his position by himself, came to the side of the black figure, and said, "When you heard the news, you called me and asked me to help. You have done good people, why don't you meet them?"
The young man's voice was very soft, with a little pity.
The black figure raised her head, she was a very thin girl, half of her face was covered with a mask and she couldn't see clearly, the other half of her face was thin and out of shape, her skin was sallow, not pretty, it could even be said to be ugly.But she has an overly beautiful eye with a raised eye tail, full of coquettish and charming.
"I didn't know he was back. If I knew he was here, I would never come." Soi Ying's voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been injured, and it sounded rough.
The news that Ye Lanxi had brought someone had entered Wanbaolou, and it should have been delivered to Duan Hanzhou.But unfortunately, Duan Hanzhou happened to be out on business, and Duan Qiu found out about the news.
Duan Qiu knew what the Shen family was like now, and worried that her aunt would suffer, so she dragged the only young man by her side out.It's just that she didn't expect that Shen Zhuo came back.
Earlier, Wanbaolou did get the news that he was leaving the mountain, but the strange thing is that along the way, another force has been hiding his whereabouts and concealing his news, which made Wanbaolou's information not so timely.
Seeing Shen Zhuo talking and laughing happily in the sun, Duan Qiu's heart seemed to be pricked by something, and she gasped in pain.Her thoughts even returned to the secret place many years ago. In the darkness where she could not see her fingers, the sound of venom corroding flesh could be heard clearly. It was a nightmare she could not get rid of.
Does she hate Shen Zhuo?No doubt she hated.But when he thinks of Gong Shutong who is good with him, this hatred becomes contradictory.
The current Shen Zhuo is completely different from the Shen Zhuo who deceived and calculated them in the secret realm back then. The strong sense of disobedience is lingering in her mind. Duan Qiu's rationality told her that there was a problem, but her sensibility made her choose to ignore it.
Seeing Duan Qiu frowning, the young man felt distressed, blamed himself for talking too much, and quickly changed the subject: "We've been out for a long time, it's time to go back, or your brother will beat me up again when he doesn't see you."
Duan Qiu hummed, since the matter was settled, there was no need for her to stay any longer.
The young man happily picked her up, acted as a humanoid mount, and led her to Wanbao Tower.The toxin has eroded Duan Qiu's body, and it is difficult for her to stand up now.
On the street where they went away, Shen Zhuo, who had gone back and forth, stood aside, taking a panoramic view of everything.He just wanted to see
After hearing Shen Zhuo's words, Ling Shuangxue's pupils shrank suddenly, and her palms pressed|pressed on her heart, and her heart beat several beats faster.He pretended to push Shen Zhuo away as if nothing had happened, and said, "Why are you saying this all of a sudden?"
"Because I'm afraid I'll forget it, so I have to tell Master in time." Shen Zhuo didn't push forward, and didn't continue to lean up after being pushed away by Ling Shuangxue, but stood by his side in a regular manner, with a shallow smile on his face Meaning, the eyes are deep.
Ling Shuangxue was silent, and took a few steps forward. Perhaps she had an answer to the endless twists and turns in her heart, and said calmly: "Got it."
Three simple words are the best response to Shen Zhuo.
Shen Zhuo is willing to open his heart to Ling Shuangxue and share everything about himself with him.Perhaps Ling Shuangxue was still standing outside his world, but he accepted Shen Zhuo's invitation and could walk in at any time.
Shen Zhuo's world is the human world, the world of mortals, and perhaps Ling Shuangxue's desire to escape for thousands of years.Compared with Ling Shuangxue's blankness, his life is colorful and full of temptations.Let people touch it a little, and they can't extricate themselves.
In the courtyard, Bai Yan was entrenched on the medicinal materials, picking and choosing among those things, but in the end he still didn't like any of them, and radiated his own flames discouragedly.
Shen Zhuo took it back in time, fearing that she would get angry and burn the surrounding area with flames.She is life, but also brings death.
This time Shen Zhuo didn't hold back Bai Yan, she happily slipped into Shen Zhuo's body, had fun in his body, looked at this and that, and even went to the dantian to find the beast fire to show off.
Shen Zhuo ignored her and re-examined the medicinal materials. All the years met the requirements of the basic pill, and the quality was even improved a little because of Bai Yan.
"With these, my father can also breathe a sigh of relief." The matter of medicinal materials is settled, and the order is not a problem.
The refining of these basic pills does not take time, and the disciples of the Yaofang can do it all in a day or two.
Shen Zhuo went to the alchemy room in front to invite Wu Wei, handed the refined medicinal materials to him, and said with a smile: "Elder Wu, the rest of alchemy will be hard on you."
Wu Wei looked at the scene in front of him and was speechless in surprise.If it wasn't for Shen Zhuo and Ling Shuangxue who had never left in the yard, and the pile of medicinal materials was still in the same place just now, exactly, he would have thought that Shen Zhuo had bought a new batch of medicinal materials.
"How did you do this?" Wu Wei's inner shock could not be calmed down for a long time. He had never heard that someone could produce medicinal materials with insufficient age.
Shen Zhuo said vaguely: "Occasionally there is a chance, and it happens to be able to solve this kind of thing."
As soon as Wu Wei heard this, he knew that Shen Zhuo didn't want to say more. In the past, he would definitely have asked to the end, but today it was rare for him to understand and didn't ask.
He knew in his heart that no matter what method Shen Zhuo used, it would be beneficial to the Shen family and himself.
After finishing the medicinal materials, Shen Zhuo saw that Shen Le hadn't woken up yet, so he let Jiaojiao stay here. If there are people who don't have eyesight and go back and forth, Jiaojiao doesn't have to be polite to them.
Jiaojiao agreed, and turned her head to look at Ling Shuangxue eagerly.
Ling Shuangxue said to Shen Zhuo: "The food you took away this morning was bought for Jiaojiao, return it."
Shen Zhuo thought of the string hanging around Jiaojiao's neck this morning, and with a slight movement of consciousness, he took the things out of the small world and put them all beside Jiaojiao.Jiaojiao happily picked it up, flicked her tail to show Shen Zhuo a back view, and went to eat by herself.
Wu Wei still wanted to see something from the pile of medicinal materials in the research institute.
Shen Zhuo greeted him and was about to leave, but Wu Wei waved his hand without raising his head to show that he knew.
Ling Shuangxue stood on the porch, looking thoughtfully at his back with his head stuck in the herbs.Just now he watched Shen Yiwen and the others make trouble, Shen Yiwen provoked everywhere, and finally forced Wu Wei to take action.But the moment Wu Wei made his move, the little man hiding in the crowd was also ready to do it.
Ling Shuangxue didn't think that he was going to help Shen Yiwen, on the contrary, his goal was more like Wu Wei.Shen Yiwen fell into the water, and the others couldn't react in time, so it was this person who came forward to save people.He didn't say a word from beginning to end, but his eyes made people uncomfortable.
Wu Wei manages the Shen family's pharmacy. For the Shen family, if something happens to him, it will definitely be a big blow.But he still has a violent temper, even if he is reminded, he will not guard against it, but will go forward without fear.
It's no wonder that Shen Yiwen is unscrupulous, as long as Wu Wei is the first to act, they will have a way to shirk responsibility for everything.
Ling Shuangxue mentioned this to Shen Zhuo, asking him to pay more attention.
Most pharmacists focus more on refining medicine, and they are not as good as dedicated practitioners in terms of practice, so they will inevitably suffer when confronting others.This is especially true for Wu Wei. He is obsessed with alchemy and doesn't have much combat experience. It may be even more difficult to parry when encountering a sneak attack.
Shen Zhuo thought for a while, then went back to explain to Jiaojiao, and left Jiaojiao here.
Most of the things in the pharmacy are done by Wu Wei himself, and if he is too prominent, he is a living target.But as long as there are existences more prominent than him, the danger he faces will be relatively reduced.
Give Shen Zhuo some time, and he will focus all his attention on himself, reducing the danger to others.
The few pharmacies left by the Shen family on the bright side are a little secluded and not in a busy city. Most of the people who come to the door are repeat customers. Every day, every kind of medicine is provided in fixed quantities. It is easy to maintain the operation of the Shen family. Can.
The person who came to make trouble this time was the eldest uncle's youngest son, who was the eighth eldest. According to his seniority, Shen Zhuo had to call him the eighth uncle, and he was also Shen Yiwen's biological father.
The family was dispatched, but the uncle's family was nowhere to be seen. Presumably, they were pawned as guns to drive them forward.
When Shen Zhuo and Ling Shuangxue arrived, the matter had already been resolved.Shen Xiao left room for them to maneuver in consideration of brotherhood, but they pushed forward. Unfortunately, Ye Lanxi and Shen Zhuo came here after hearing the news.
She has a tough temper. In the words of my uncle, she is kind on the surface, but actually has a cold heart.Eighth Uncle's method against Shen Xiao didn't work, she just showed her weapon and saw the truth.
Where is Uncle Ba's opponent?At last he walked away in disgrace.
They made trouble and overturned some seats when they came, and now everyone was cleaning them up, Ye Lanxi sat in the middle of the lobby with a chair, Shen Xiao stood behind her and squeezed her shoulders, the husband and wife enjoyed themselves happily.
The sister-in-law counted the losses in the shop with an abacus, and made a list and handed it to Ye Lanxi.
"Sister-in-law, the money this time plus the previous odds and ends, just makes up a whole number. Do you think it's time to get it back now, or after a while?"
Uncle Ba and the others didn't make trouble once or twice. Ye Lanxi didn't seem to care too much about them on the surface, but in fact, they kept a record of every account for them, and waited to make up a whole number to get them back together.
The sister-in-law is in charge of the accounts of the shop, and she hit it off with Ye Lanxi. The accounts are accurate to the bricks and tiles, every centimeter, and no detail is missed.
Ye Lanxi took out the list of several times and stacked it in his hand, looked at it, got up and said: "Since we have made it all together, let the third brother and I go for a walk. Qing Yun, I will leave it to you here." You cleaned up."
The sister-in-law smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, when you come back, this place will definitely be restored to its original state, and it will be exactly the same."
Ye Lanxi was going to collect debts, but the third uncle stood up from the corner without saying a word, holding his own weapon in his hand.He is good at using a knife, using a lancet.
Shen Xiao walked around from behind the chair and said, "I'll go too."
"Where are you going?" Ye Lanxi looked at him and said, "Do you know how to fight? Didn't you say that something happened to the pharmacy and you have to deal with it?"
As a pharmacist, Shen Xiao has superb attainments and a strong cultivation base, but he is useless at the first level in fighting.Ye Lanxi clearly wrote on his face that he was holding back, and drove him to the pharmacy to do his own business.
Shen Xiao was wronged and wronged: "I don't worry, you have always disliked elder brother, if you meet, I'm afraid you will suffer."
"It doesn't matter who will suffer when you meet?" Ye Lanxi sneered. When she was a family, she didn't care about Shen Xiao's face. Now it's not a family, and she won't be restrained.
"If father is worried, then let me accompany mother." Shen Zhuo rushed to the place stepping forward, seeing Shen Xiao's expression of reluctance, he stood up in time.
He and the third uncle and auntie nodded in greeting, then looked at Ye Lanxi, and said obediently: "Mother, take me there. It just so happens that I haven't seen my uncle and uncle for many years. I wonder if they are in good health?"
Shen Zhuo spoke words of concern, but his smile didn't reach his eyes, showing a sense of coldness.
Ye Lanxi had a good talk with Shen Zhuo in the morning, and she was aware of her son's strength, so she didn't refuse immediately, and said: "Then go, mother will take you to visit your uncle, and let him have some fun."
Shen Xiao shivered, he felt that what his wife said was having fun, but what she meant was to send someone to die.The daughter-in-law didn't take him to play, but brought her son with her. Could it be that he is not as good as his own son?
Ye Lanxi didn't care about Shen Xiao's thoughts, and left with her hands.Ling Shuangxue stood beside Shen Zhuo, walking side by side with Shen Zhuo.
Shen Xiao saw it, rubbed his eyes, and thought, "Should I stop the Venerable?"
But after thinking about it, if the Venerable is not willing to go, he must have stayed, so why should he bother?
On the way to Uncle Uncle's mansion, Shen Zhuo asked the reason for the trouble, Ye Lanxi said: "What else? I just want your father to unblock the Shen family's house. When your father and I decided to retreat, Seal all the things of the Shen family in the mansion, and then give the ownership of the house to your uncle. Bet it out at the price of tens of millions of spirit stones, and they dare not go to your uncle, so they have to come here to play wild."
The foundation of the Shen family is still in the original mansion, and Shen Xiao and the others did not take anything with them when they retreated, so there were signs of the Shen family's rapid decline.This matter was not concealed enough, and the other family members also guessed some, so they were reluctant.
But to be honest, when the other two chose to leave, Shen Xiao had already let them take away their share, and did not withhold it, so he was worthy of these two.
What is left of the Shen family's mansion now is the family business established by Shen Zhuo's grandfather and Shen Xiao, and does not belong to outsiders.
Ye Lanxi's expression was serious, she turned her head to look at her son beside her, he was already an adult, he was no longer the young master who hid under her and Shen Xiao's wings and needed their protection.
"Our Shen family had a great career at the beginning, and it aspired to be the head of the Taoist family. Outsiders seemed to have a great reputation, but in fact, internal conflicts have accumulated over time and cannot be reconciled. Your father and I are only one child of yours. In the future, the family business will definitely fall on the Some people in you are sure of this, and they will take the opportunity to attack you when you are in a slump. Now that you are back, you also know that you are wrong. It is time to show those people that our Shen family can bend and stretch. It is to let them three In five years, our Shen family still has a place in the alchemy world."
The withdrawal of Shen Xiao and Ye Lanxi did not make the Shen family fall to the bottom, on the contrary, they chose to retreat when the conflict was most acute, and minimized the loss.
Everyone wants to fight for a breath, but how to fight for this breath to maximize the benefits?It's a pleasure to show off your anger for a while, but how will the mess after that end?
Ye Lanxi is a casual cultivator. She has walked one step at a time, so what hardships have she suffered?What trouble did you encounter?She can support the glory and wealth, and she can also put down her figure.
Shen Zhuo understood what Ye Lanxi meant, and said, "Don't worry, mother, I know what's going on."
Ye Lanxi said with relief: "Go back and say hello to your father, find a good time, and we will unseal the Shen family's mansion. The storm that failed to break out a few years ago has been suppressed for long enough, it is time to let it break Get up. This time we are together as a family and face it together."
Dabogong's family moved to the bustling area of Huajin City, just two streets away from the original mansion, and they can face each other from a high place.
It's still early at this moment, and the street is very lively, monks from all over the world are mixed together, you come and go, so happy.Ye Lanxi walked through the street with a group of people, with big goals and easy to attract the attention of others.
In Huajin City, who doesn't know the Shen family?Don't know Ye Lanxi?
When they saw this, they knew that there was excitement to watch, but not everyone could watch such excitement.
For a while, everyone looked up and guessed what Ye Lanxi wanted to do.When they saw clearly the direction Ye Lanxi was going, they were even more surprised.
Among the crowd of onlookers, some people retreated quietly, turned around and entered the Wanbao Building in Huajincheng, in a hurry, as if something was chasing after them.
Many eyes gathered together, Ling Shuangxue gathered up her cloak, the fluffy white down covered half of her face, her long hair was half loose and hanging by her ears, making it difficult for people to see her appearance clearly for a while.He lowered his sense of presence, trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible.
Uncle Ba and Shen Yiwen, who went to the shop to make trouble, had just entered the door with their front and back feet, before their buttocks touched the bench, and Ye Lanxi led someone to knock on the door with their back feet.
In front of her uncle, she is a junior, so she can be regarded as giving the other party enough face to avoid being offended.
The disciples who came to open the door were a little surprised. It was a well-known fact that they and Shen Xiao had been at odds over the years. They occasionally went to cause trouble for Shen Xiao and the others, and Shen Xiao didn't bother to come to the door to inquire.I don't know which one to sing today, but Ye Lanxi brought the people here swaggeringly.
The disciple who opened the door couldn't be the master. He looked at the group of people behind Ye Lanxi and knew that the visitors were not good, so he didn't even dare to let them in, and quickly closed the door again.
Ye Lanxi didn't care if the door was closed, she waited patiently outside for a while, the door opened soon, this time the uncle came out.He is beautiful and full of glory and wealth.But I don't know if the life is too comfortable, a little fat, not as young and vigorous as before.
When others saw Ye Lanxi, it was as if they had seen a ghost, but he was kind, with a smile on his face, as if he had no intentions, he cupped his hands to welcome him, and said: "I said that there was a distinguished visitor at home, but I didn't expect it to be my brother and sister. Although we are still in the same place these years, we have very little contact with each other, it is rare for you to come to the door today, if I am a big brother, if there is any place where the hospitality is not good, please forgive me."
"Brother, you are welcome." Ye Lanxi avoided the uncle's approaching hand without any trace, and said: "I have something to talk about today, but I have to speak outside to make it clear. I won't enter the threshold of your house." .”
Shen Zhuo noticed his mother's displeasure, and then looked at the way his uncle looked at her, his face immediately became gloomy.When I was a child, the tricks in the adult world had already been seen. Now that the family is separated, the uncle is even more unscrupulous.
Shen Zhuo only felt a rush of blood rushing into his heart. He clenched his fists, squeezed forward with a smile on his face, grabbed his uncle's hand, and said: "Uncle, I haven't seen you for many years, do you still remember me? I came to visit with my mother and my third uncle, and I am really flattered that my uncle is so polite."
Shen Zhuo clenched his uncle's hand, emphasizing that Ye Lanxi did not come alone.A younger sibling, a brother, is it true that the uncle's eyes are so lame that he only sees Ye Lanxi?
The strength from his hand carried the anger of the young man, the uncle looked up at Shen Zhuo, and pretended to be surprised: "So it was Ah Zhuo, when did you come back? Why didn't you notify the uncle? Although we didn't live together, But it’s rare for you to go home once, so there’s no shortage of welcome banquets.”
Shen Zhuo didn't come back after he got into a catastrophe. Some people in Huajincheng were no strangers to him. Now when they heard the name with stretched ears, they were stunned for a moment before they realized it, with different expressions.
Some people taunted in a low voice with disdain, while some gloated and lifted the bench to wait for the good show to begin.
Shen Zhuo's expression was as usual, the smile on his face seemed to be engraved on it, he looked kind, but he had no emotion in reality.
Uncle acted with him, and he didn't mind accepting the move, so he asked, "Don't you know I'm back?"
The uncle paused, not sure what Shen Zhuo meant by asking this question.He just got home yesterday, even if the uncle said he didn't know, it was normal.
Shen Zhuo didn't wait for him to speak, and said again: "But the third brother knows that I'm back. He had a little trouble with me at the medicine shop just now, and said he wanted me to look good. I haven't been a younger brother for some years. When I came back, I don’t know much about the separation of your families, but we are brothers after all, if I do something wrong to make third brother unhappy, please ask uncle to mediate for us.”
Shen Zhuo was very angry, he said that the split of the Shen family was a division of the family, and that Shen Yiwen went to the pharmacy to make troubles as a conflict between the two brothers, and he took the responsibility on himself. He seemed to be a brotherly brother, very friendly.
But he didn't say it clearly, and the group of people who watched the excitement could guess it, after all, this kind of thing didn't happen once or twice.
The uncle's eyelids twitched, and he took his hand out of Shen Zhuo's grip. Even though the back of his hand was a lot red, his face was still very kind, and he said: "Brother, do you have an overnight feud? Ah Zhuo, don't worry, I will let you Your eighth uncle brought Shen Yiwen to your house to apologize to you."
As soon as the uncle said this, it seemed that Shen Zhuo was unrelenting and aggressive.
With a smile on Shen Zhuo's face, he scolded the old fox in his heart: "Thank you uncle, I know that uncle has always been the most fair person in our family, no matter what it is, if it is in your hands, it will be a steelyard with both ends level. "
Shen Zhuo said compliments, but the uncle didn't dare to agree, he always felt that behind Shen Zhuo's words was a big pit, waiting for him to jump into.He looked over Shen Zhuo and glanced at Ye Lanxi, seeing that she had no smile on her face, and her expression was serious, so he knew that the visitor was not kind.
Shen Zhuo also mentioned Shen Yiwen just now, could it be that the matter of the medicine workshop has been succeeded?
The uncle was a little uncertain, Shen Yiwen and the eighth uncle had just arrived home, and they hadn't had time to meet.But it must be a big deal for Ye Lanxi to rush over with people. Apart from Wu Wei's accident, the uncle can't think of any other reason.
Since this is the case, it will be much easier to handle.The uncle regained the dominance in an instant, and Wu Wei had a violent temper, and he couldn't help but strike at the slightest provocation.As long as he strikes first, his skills are not as good as others and he is injured. Uncle has the ability to defend himself.
He pretended to respond to Shen Zhuo's compliment, turned sideways to give way to the door, and said: "One family does not talk about two families. Since we have all arrived at the door, everyone should not stand stupidly outside the door. Let's all go in and talk."
"It's fine to enter the house. Uncle, why don't you invite the third brother and the third uncle out, just let the neighbors and you be a witness." Shen Zhuo observed the changes in the expression of the uncle, and saw that he gradually showed the appearance of being sure of winning. He guessed that he wanted to Forked.
He mentioned the matter between himself and Shen Yiwen first because he was a junior, and he couldn't blame Eighth Uncle right away. In comparison, Shen Yiwen was a good topic to start.
If the uncle thinks of other aspects because of this, it has nothing to do with him.
Seeing Shen Zhuo's refusal, the uncle didn't panic, but instead had a slightly serious expression, saying: "You can't show your family ugliness to the outside world. It's not good for you to let the neighbors come and see."
"What's wrong?" Shen Zhuo said: "Brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Since it is clear, then clear it thoroughly. Uncle doesn't know, right? Uncle Eighth went to my shop to play tricks again today. All this before and after After coming down so many times, the compensation alone is a big sum. If it is less, we don't care about it, but... I know that uncle is the most fair person, so we brought the bill and asked him to listen Hear it, judge it."
Shen Zhuo put a high hat on his uncle, deliberately said that he didn't know about it, and seemed to pick him out, but actually wanted him to be inconvenient to intervene to defend Ba Shu.
Since you don't know, you have to look like you don't know. If you say you know something, it will be even more ugly in front of everyone.
The uncle never expected that the situation would turn around and Ye Lanxi came to ask for money.
Over the years, they have made a lot of bets on the Shen family's shop, both openly and secretly. The eighth uncle alone has smashed a lot of times, and Shen Xiao and Ye Lanxi have never seen a word before, and the relationship is all accumulated and liquidated.
People in Huajincheng have seen such a thing as smashing a store, and they can't blame it even if they want to.
The uncle wanted to persuade Shen Zhuo and the others to come in, but Shen Zhuo didn't accept his tricks, instead he said cheerfully: "The eighth uncle is not out at the moment, but it doesn't matter, or uncle should listen to the details of the bill first. I have a number in my heart."
After speaking, Shen Zhuo turned to Ye Lanxi to ask for the bill. Seeing Ye Lanxi pull out a stack of papers, the corners of the uncle's eyes twitched.This is a real settlement, there is no ambiguity at all.
"Ah Zhuo, just show me the account, don't need to read it." The uncle remembered that the person who settled the accounts in the shop was my sister-in-law. Eight counted what went up?
The uncle didn't dare to lose this man, and while teaching people to call the old eight out, he held Shen Zhuo steady, wanting what he had in his hands.
As long as this thing is in his hands, he will play casually, without evidence, who dares to say a word?
Shen Zhuo looked at his uncle with the bill, and handed over the bill after hearing his words.The uncle was overjoyed, but Shen Zhuo suddenly withdrew his hand and said, "Since we want all the neighbors to be witnesses, it's not appropriate to just show it to the uncle, it's better to read it aloud so that everyone can hear it."
Shen Zhuo said, and handed the bill to the third uncle.
Although Third Uncle doesn't talk much and has a dull personality, but he has a high level of cultivation and a loud voice, which is very suitable for reading bills.Seeing that he spread out the bill and was about to speak with a blank face, the uncle stopped immediately.
The uncle is different from the eighth uncle. He is a man who knows how to behave in front of others, and he has built a good reputation. The most important thing is his face.In recent years, he has also been a face-saving hero to Shen Xiao and his wife, maintaining the image of a good big brother.
This time the eighth uncle got into trouble, they are under the same roof, the eighth uncle has no face, how can he have face?
Originally, smashing the store could be regarded as a conflict between brothers, a little squabbling is harmless.But when it comes to large compensation, this is no small matter.
"Sister and sister, the eighth brother is really wrong. Give me the number, and I will definitely ask him to bring you the spirit stone." The uncle didn't talk to Shen Zhuo this time, but passed Shen Zhuo and Ye Lanxi Talking in a friendly manner, it's like standing on Ye Lanxi's side, trying to vent her anger for her.
Seeing this, Shen Zhuo silently retreated to Ling Shuangxue's side.If the uncle wants to talk to his mother, let him talk.But if he still dares to look at his mother with the eyes just now, don't blame him for being cruel.
Ye Lanxi was already at odds with her uncle, so when he asked her, he was asking the wrong person.
"Brother, it's not that I can't trust you, but I can't trust the eighth brother. I'm afraid that if you turn around, you will have nothing to say." Ye Lanxi said coldly, with a look of disgust showing involuntarily.
"We've all come here. With uncle's justice, we will definitely not let us return empty-handed." Shen Zhuo echoed in a timely manner, and the people around whispered, all of them were full of curiosity about the so-called bill.
The third uncle looked at Ye Lanxi, as long as Ye Lanxi opened his mouth, he would be able to hear the whole street reading.
The uncle smiled but didn't smile, and the two sides persisted in place.The uncle rubbed his hands in embarrassment, complaining that the eighth uncle came out slowly, when he heard the eighth uncle's voice from inside the door.
He was very disdainful, walked out in a dawdly manner, and said contemptuously: "Sister-in-law, is your family unable to survive? I will count this spirit stone with me? I am a big brother, and I don't care about you, a woman." If you want spirit stones, I'll give you some, just treat the beggars as my kindness."
Uncle Ba didn't have a straight line, he leaned slantly against the pillar at the door, he looked like a thug in the city, without any demeanor.
Ye Lanxi glanced at him, snorted coldly, and gave third uncle a look.
When the uncle saw this, the secret passage was broken, and he used ghost shadow tricks to grab what was in the hands of the third uncle.Once he got his hands on it, pre-emptively took the bills and sent them away with a few words.There is no account, so they have the final say?
Shen Zhuo had been guarding against him all the time, the moment he made a move, he stopped him with a flicker of his figure, and clamped his wrist again with a smile.In the eyes of outsiders, they thought they had a good relationship.
The uncle was startled, Shen Zhuo's change made him unexpected.
Judging from Shen Zhuo's ability to restrict him, where is he still the same as before?
"Uncle, I know that your family has a great career, and it's not a big deal to have thousands of spirit stones in your hands. In this case, let's listen to it and make a total of it, so that Uncle Ba will show kindness." Shen Zhuo's voice sank , the smile on his face gradually turned cold.
The third uncle started to settle the accounts without changing his face. Unlike ordinary bills, the sister-in-law wrote not only what the eighth uncle smashed, but also who the eighth uncle brought to smash it and why.
This is no longer just a bill, but Uncle Ba's personal "heroic deeds", so when everyone heard that Uncle Ba was drunk and drunk, and brought a female cultivator from the Hehuan Sect to the market, because he couldn't do it and couldn't buy it. When Zhuangyang Pill became angry from embarrassment, he knew that this matter was not easy.
Eighth Uncle himself heard something was wrong, everything he did was to make Shen Xiao unhappy, but when he said it from other people's mouths, it turned out that he didn't care about the seriousness of those fans and confidants.
Shen Zhuo was also taken aback, then laughed out loud, and said to his uncle: "I didn't realize that my eighth uncle's life is so rich and colorful, but he is not old enough."
The uncle's face turned green with anger, and he had to maintain a smirk, but his face turned ferocious.
He waved back Shen Zhuo, and said angrily with a flick of his sleeves: "That's enough, brother and sister, you give me the number, and the elder brother asks the eighth brother to pay you back, and it will definitely be half of your money."
The uncle's voice became ruthless, and his words seemed more believable.
Ye Lanxi raised her eyes to look at him, and said, "Third brother, read the little sister's calculation to the eldest brother."
The third uncle quickly turned to the last page, and said: "The above damages the pills, pill furnace, formations, and house repairs...a total of 370 middle-grade spirit stones."
"Fart, you guys are talking nonsense, the lion opened your mouth." Eighth Uncle had a look of disdain before, but now he heard the total jump on the spot and scolded.
Even the uncle looked over in surprise, and said with a smirk: "Sister and brother, is this a miscalculation?"
Five thousand, 370 million and forty thousand middle-grade spirit stones is not a small amount, if it is a low-grade spirit stone, it can be said.
The crowd of onlookers was also whispering, and some were dumbfounded.After all, the numbers read at the beginning were normal. According to this situation, it is impossible to add middle grades.
The third uncle flipped through the bill, and said solemnly: "It's written here, because the eighth brother boasted in front of his pink confidant that he took anything from our shop, and it was his. So they took away ten six-grade Pills, three seventh-grade pills, and one profound pill."
The Shen family's shop only sells simple basic pills, but it doesn't mean that there are no high-level pills.
As soon as the third uncle said this, there was an uproar around him. Other things might not be worth much, but these high-level pills are not expensive.
Uncle Ba's cold sweat broke out immediately, and he quibbled: "I was just talking at the time, can this also be blamed on me?"
It's just a word, it's an invisible admission of this matter, the uncle scolded a fool, now there is no excuse to redeem it.
With sharp eyes, Ye Lanxi asked back: "Is there any problem with you for the things you took with someone?"
Shen Zhuo went to the third uncle and took the bill. The unread part was also very exciting. He took a few thin pages, ignored the eighth uncle, and said coolly, "Uncle, what do you think?"
The uncle was dizzy with anger, and said: "Sisters and sisters, let alone the eighth brother, even our whole family can't take it out all at once. Why don't I send someone to send it to you tomorrow?"
"Okay." Shen Zhuo agreed before Ye Lanxi, raised the bill in his hand, and said, "I believe Uncle Ba doesn't want these things to spread all over Huajin City."
This is a blatant threat, the accounts are secondary, and those glorious deeds are the highlight.
When the people around heard it, their hearts were itchy and unbearable, wishing they could get those few pieces of paper now and gossip with each other.
"Master Shen, it's really interesting for me to look at these papers of yours. Otherwise, I'll give you 370 million middle-grade spirit stones, and you give me this bill, and let me and you all review it."
Amidst the discussion, one person spoke suddenly, attracting everyone's attention.Hearing the sound, he looked like a young man with good facial features, well-dressed, with a freehand brush embroidered on his clothes.
That pen reveals the identity of the young man, a newly-emerged upper-class force, their sect has nothing special, so they just write small gossip about Taoism for everyone to relieve their boredom in the boring practice of Taoism.
If Eighth Uncle's sex bill really falls into the young man's hands, I'm afraid he will be the talk of everyone in the next few years.
The young man's move is simply a divine assist, and the eighth uncle wants to renege on his debt, and the uncle can't afford to lose this man.So why did he come out to take care of this today?Wouldn't it be better if he pretended not to know?The uncle regretted it unceasingly.
"Siblings, I'll give you the Lingshi right now." The uncle took a breath of anger in his heart, he walked up to the eighth uncle, and dragged people around to discuss something.
The eighth uncle was like a cripple beaten by Shuang, dejected, not daring to fart, and obediently handed over the spirit stone on his hand.He has not been restrained by anyone these years, and he has accumulated a lot of savings despite being a domineering.But this large sum was too much, enough for him to vomit blood from heartache, and be so angry that he could not sleep or eat for days and nights.
The uncle came with a storage bag, Shen Zhuo didn't give him a chance to get close to Ye Lanxi, he came over to take it by himself, with a smile on his face, thanking the uncle for being fair, and lightly tapped the Lingshi with his spiritual sense After confirming that the number is not bad, hand it over to Ye Lanxi.
"Since the matter has been resolved, then we won't bother you any more. Goodbye, uncle." Shen Zhuo waved to his uncle and left without hesitation.
The onlookers still couldn't finish it, so the uncle gave Uncle Ba a hard look, and brought him in through the door.Then the door closed with a bang, as if it was the curtain call of the story.
"It's a good show, don't you think?" The young man who spoke for Shen Zhuo just now picked up the teacup on the table and looked up at the blind corner of everyone's sight. There was a black figure shrouded in shadows, which made people see unclear.
The young man moved his position by himself, came to the side of the black figure, and said, "When you heard the news, you called me and asked me to help. You have done good people, why don't you meet them?"
The young man's voice was very soft, with a little pity.
The black figure raised her head, she was a very thin girl, half of her face was covered with a mask and she couldn't see clearly, the other half of her face was thin and out of shape, her skin was sallow, not pretty, it could even be said to be ugly.But she has an overly beautiful eye with a raised eye tail, full of coquettish and charming.
"I didn't know he was back. If I knew he was here, I would never come." Soi Ying's voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been injured, and it sounded rough.
The news that Ye Lanxi had brought someone had entered Wanbaolou, and it should have been delivered to Duan Hanzhou.But unfortunately, Duan Hanzhou happened to be out on business, and Duan Qiu found out about the news.
Duan Qiu knew what the Shen family was like now, and worried that her aunt would suffer, so she dragged the only young man by her side out.It's just that she didn't expect that Shen Zhuo came back.
Earlier, Wanbaolou did get the news that he was leaving the mountain, but the strange thing is that along the way, another force has been hiding his whereabouts and concealing his news, which made Wanbaolou's information not so timely.
Seeing Shen Zhuo talking and laughing happily in the sun, Duan Qiu's heart seemed to be pricked by something, and she gasped in pain.Her thoughts even returned to the secret place many years ago. In the darkness where she could not see her fingers, the sound of venom corroding flesh could be heard clearly. It was a nightmare she could not get rid of.
Does she hate Shen Zhuo?No doubt she hated.But when he thinks of Gong Shutong who is good with him, this hatred becomes contradictory.
The current Shen Zhuo is completely different from the Shen Zhuo who deceived and calculated them in the secret realm back then. The strong sense of disobedience is lingering in her mind. Duan Qiu's rationality told her that there was a problem, but her sensibility made her choose to ignore it.
Seeing Duan Qiu frowning, the young man felt distressed, blamed himself for talking too much, and quickly changed the subject: "We've been out for a long time, it's time to go back, or your brother will beat me up again when he doesn't see you."
Duan Qiu hummed, since the matter was settled, there was no need for her to stay any longer.
The young man happily picked her up, acted as a humanoid mount, and led her to Wanbao Tower.The toxin has eroded Duan Qiu's body, and it is difficult for her to stand up now.
On the street where they went away, Shen Zhuo, who had gone back and forth, stood aside, taking a panoramic view of everything.He just wanted to see
