On the Importance of Chinese Characters

"Junior Sister, I just saw that she is the younger sister of the Zong family? What is she looking for from you?" In the elegant and beautiful manor, a young man in blue asked curiously about the woman in red behind him.

"I don't know." Lian Huiyi shook his head and wrinkled his nose, "Mysteriously told me that there would be a surprise for me at today's auction. This little girl always behaves like this, so don't worry about it."

Hearing what she said, the man in blue didn't take it too seriously. He looked up at the clouds in the sky and muttered to himself: "Master has been back to the palace for almost a month, and I don't know what's going on in the palace now."

Even Huiyi didn't take it seriously: "Of course everything is going well. Master is so good, since he can be praised in the north, and the palace is full of his own parents, how can it be bad?"

Zhou He Shuxin said that it would be so simple, he looked at the still naive junior sister, and secretly sighed.

The master has always been strict, and the only one who can win the master's gentleness and patience is the old Shilian Huiyi.

Zhou Shuhe speculated that it was probably because the younger junior sister looked very similar to the daughter of the master who passed away, and even with the master, she had a somewhat empathetic effect on Lian Huiyi, and she always subconsciously protected her, which led to the fact that the old ten is now in his fifties He just blindly cultivates, and his mind is still as pure and innocent as a child.

It's okay, it's not good, Master can't protect her forever, she has to grow up by herself.

"Senior brother, the auction is about to start, let's go." Lian Huiyi didn't know Zhou Heshu's endless twists and turns in his heart, seeing that the time was just right, he happily jumped down from the promenade and stretched out his hand to grab his arm to urge him.

Zhou Heshu was pulled so coquettishly by her, with a helpless smile on his face, he stood up and said, "Okay, let's go."

Lian Huiyi immediately showed a happy look on his face, and ran outside cheerfully.

??

Fang Yi and Dou Tianci entered the auction venue early, the waitress in charge of welcoming people glanced at Fang Yi, her eyes flickered slightly, then led them to a seat near the front row, and handed over two attention stones : "The auction will start later, the two distinguished guests can take a look at the roster of today's auction."

The two of them took the things from the waiter's hands and impatiently searched for them with their spiritual thoughts.

As expected, it was indeed an auction held by the Lord of the One. All kinds of rare treasures appeared one after another. Some good things made Fang Yi's heart flutter even though she was not her goal.

However, this is not the time to take a closer look at the treasure, Fang Yi's spiritual thoughts quickly swept across the image of the treasure, and it took a long time before suddenly stopping on a group of misty clouds shining like golden sand.

Sushen Xuanqi, the legendary treasure that can resist the wind of the sea.Incorporating this thing into the sea of ​​consciousness will create a fake sea of ​​consciousness square.Although this square cannot accommodate the lines of the origin technique, it can protect the divine sense from the ravages of the sea wind. It is a very rare and rare treasure.

Taking a long breath, Fang Yi raised her head and smiled with relief.

Zhou Shuhe, who was led by the waiter, swept his eyes inadvertently, his eyes widened like a ghost, his feet froze in place, stared at the woman in front of him in disbelief, and muttered to himself without blinking. Yu: "Senior Sister Fang?!...No, that's not right...Senior Sister Fang has clearly...but, how could it be?"

"Brother, why don't you leave?" Lian Huiyi, who was walking behind him, pushed his back suspiciously, but he didn't want Zhou Shuhe to be in extreme shock at this time, and he didn't respond at all.

"Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Brother?!" Lian Huiyi called him twice and impatiently stuck out his head from behind him, wanting to see what made his senior brother react like this.

After seeing this, Lian Huiyi couldn't help being surprised, and said: "Ah! This sister looks like me!"

Blinking, Lian Huiyi squeezed past Zhou Shuhe sideways like a fish full of fun, ran to Fang Yi and sat down on her buttocks, and asked cheerfully, "Sister, what's your name?"

Fang Yi turned around, and when she saw the little girl, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Yi'er, this girl's birth is very similar to yours." Dou Tianci laughed.

Seeing Lian Huiyi looking at her curiously, Fang Yi's eyes similar to his own were full of clearness and simplicity, she couldn't help but feel good about her, smiled kindly, and replied, "My name is Fang Yi."

Fang Yi? !

Zhou Shuhe was shocked, and repeatedly compared Fang Yi with the image he had seen in the third senior brother's attention stone back then, and found that the person in front of him was exactly the same except that his temperament was much more mature than before!

Same face, same name...

How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

Zhou Shuhe pretended to be calm and sat down next to Lian Huiyi, but secretly used the sound transmission stone to inform the third brother Zheng Songnian in the Lord's Mansion, and sent Fang Yi's image to him.

The disciples from Zhou Shu and the others were all recruited by Luo Jiang after Fang Yi left home, so apart from Luo Jiang's first three disciples, the other disciples had never met Fang Yi.Therefore, even if they had the same name and appearance, Zhou Shuhe could not be sure that the person in front of him was his fourth senior sister, his master's daughter.

After all, Fang Yi's reading lamp was indeed extinguished back then.The chanting lamp is connected with the spiritual consciousness of the spiritual people. Generally speaking, only when they die, the spiritual people will completely lose their spiritual consciousness, and the chanting lamp will be extinguished together.

But now, if Fourth Senior Sister is really alive, why would the lamp go out back then?And why didn't he return to the palace for more than 50 years and didn't even hear from him at all?For a moment, Zhou Shuhe really wanted to go up and ask.

But... Zhou Shuhe thought about it again, senior sister Fang ran away from home back then, if this is really her, could it be that she didn't want to go back to the palace?If you go up rashly, will you scare the senior sister away again, if you hide again, it will be really hard to find.

Let's wait for the third brother to come.The senior brother has a superb cultivation base, if the senior sister doesn't want to return, she can catch people even if she is arrested.

The auction had already started, and Zhou Shuhe was absent-minded when he heard the lively bids nearby. He knew it shouldn't be, but he still couldn't help looking at Fang Yi from the corner of his eye.

Lian Huiyi, who didn't know anything here, chatted happily with Fang Yi, exchanging views on the treasures on the auction stage, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.Until the appearance of traceability profound energy...

"The next lot, tracing the origin of profound energy, has a reserve price of [-] source crystals!"

Hearing this name, Lian Huiyi's eyes lit up when he was having a pleasant conversation with Fang Yi, and he sat up straight in an instant: "Oh, it's finally here!"

Fang Yi was startled when she saw this, and said, "Even my sister came here to trace the source of profound energy?"

"Yeah?" Lian Huiyi frowned suspiciously, then reacted slowly, and said in surprise, "Sister Fang, you also...?"

Fang Yi chuckled and nodded: "Tracing the source of profound energy is very important to me, even my sister, let's each rely on our own abilities."

Lian Huiyi frowned in distress: "If it's someone else, I can let it go to my sister, but my master ordered me to capture this profound energy, which is very important to my uncle. Sister Fang, I'm sorry. "

Must be photographed?Fang Yi's heart skipped a beat.

Although things like source-tracing profound energy are rare, but because they are only effective on the sea of ​​consciousness and wind, they have no other effect except to save people who have been injured or broken in the sea of ​​consciousness from suffering, so they are not really popular in this auction. s things.

This girl is so similar to himself, and she also needs to trace the source of profound energy... Coincidence?

Fang Yi frowned, and marked her bid on the slate in front of her: "Five thousand and one hundred source crystals."

Lian Huiyi apologized and glanced at her: "Five thousand two hundred!"

"Five thousand and five." Fang Yi smiled politely back at her.

"Five thousand and six." At this moment, other people followed suit, Fang Yi didn't care, anyway, her goal today is to trace the source of profound energy, no matter how much it costs, she will get it.

Unfortunately, even Huiyi thought the same way, after all, it was Master's death order.

After a few rounds of bidding, the other five or six spirit tribe members had already watched Fang Yi and Lian Huiyi's fierce price hikes, and felt their determination to win, so they withdrew from the bidding tactfully. Only Fang Yi and Lian Huiyi were left to continue.

"Eight thousand."

"Eight thousand and five."

"Nine thousand."

The two were still raising the price, and the auctioneer on the stage looked more and more happy. The reserve price of such things as the source of mysterious energy was high from the beginning due to the rarity. Two people who need it at the same time.

Seeing that the price had already exceeded the market price, but the two of them hadn't hesitated to raise the price, the auctioneer knew that today's traceable profound energy might become a group of big dark horses today!

Lian Huiyi and Fang Yi called the price up to [-] source crystals. The sound transmission stone in Zhou Heshu's arms finally warmed up. With a sweep of his divine sense, he suddenly grabbed Lian Huiyi who was asking for the price: " Junior sister, stop calling."

Lian Hui was caught coldly by the senior brother, and in doubt, the auctioneer rang the first small bell: "Ten thousand three, this is the first time, is there anyone else? I don’t know where to look next time!”

"Senior brother?!" Even when he regained his senses, he was about to wave his spiritual thoughts to bid, but was stopped by Zhou Heshu.

"Thirteen thousand, is there any more? Thirteen thousand, the second time!" The loud bell rang again, followed by the auctioneer's bewitching voice, "The sea of ​​consciousness of the spirit race is hard to heal, and the pain is unbearable. If you have traced the source profound energy, you will be able to avoid this suffering, if you miss this time, there will be no next time!"

Even getting back into the clothes in a hurry, his eyes widened and he was about to get angry, Zhou Shuhe whispered a word to her, and in an instant, the girl was like a puffer fish that had been punctured, leaking air in an instant: "Really?!"

Zhou Shuhe nodded.

"Thirteen thousand, the third time! Deal!"

Qingyue's bell finally rang three times, and took pictures of what she wanted with much less source crystals than before. Fang Yi glanced at the little girl beside her. Although she was a little puzzled, she didn't think too much about it. Fang Yi, who took the photo, then took some pictures of heaven and earth treasures for repairing and healing spiritual thoughts, and some rare materials that can be used as source materials. She was not satisfied until the source crystals all over her body were almost gone. stop.

The auction has come to an end.

Just as Fang Yi and Dou Tianci were about to leave, they were stopped by Zhou Shu and He Lian Huiyi: "My senior brother wants to talk to you two, can you please give me your favor?"

Fang Yi and Dou Tianci looked at each other, this meeting... Dou Tianci took a step forward: "Sorry, we are in a hurry."

Zhou Shuhe insisted: "It won't delay the two of you for a long time."

Seeing his reluctance, Fang Yi raised her eyebrows in her heart when she felt something was wrong. Just as she was about to force her way in, she suddenly heard a voice behind her: "Junior Sister Fang Yi, is that you?"

The bold and bold voice was very distinctive, and Fang Yi was shocked when she heard the sound. As soon as she wanted to retreat, Dou Tianci patted her on the back: "Don't be afraid."

Fang Yi glanced at the monks at the side, bit her lips, finally turned around slowly, and called out in a slightly difficult voice: "Senior Brother Zheng."

When the visitor saw her response, he was overjoyed. His tall body rushed over like a fly, and his big palm like a cattail fan grabbed Fang Yi's shoulder: "Junior Sister, it's really you! You didn't die! That's great! You're all right! That's great!"

Now that Zhou Shu and Lian Huiyi had confirmed Fang Yi's identity, they were also as happy as if they were doing something, and squeezed forward to salute: "Xiao Wu (Xiao Shi) has met Fourth Senior Sister!"

It was only then that Fang Yi realized that these two were also his father's apprentices, and when he looked at Lian Huiyi again, he suddenly understood something, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings: "My father... is he okay?"

"Not good." Zheng Songnian shook his head bluntly, "Master was very sad when your soul lamp went out, junior sister. He didn't close his eyes for several months and kept looking for you. Now his hair is half white."

"What? My soul lamp is off? My father thought I was dead?!" Fang Yi was shocked when she heard the words, and said in a daze, "How could this be?"

In the Huoguang TV room, she remembered the group of spirit-eating true fogs she met before being swallowed by the Xuanhei Pagoda.

Spirit Devouring True Mist devours everything, as long as source power, spiritual thoughts, and flesh are things that contain power, it will not let go of them all.Back then, she first used source power to protect her body, and after the source force was devoured, she then used divine sense to protect her body, squeezing the last of her spiritual power, but she couldn't break free from that ghost thing. Just when Fang Yi thought she was going to die, she did it It was swallowed by the Xuanhei Pagoda.

She suddenly looked at Dou Tianci, and Dou Tianci scratched his head: "When I saw you, your sea of ​​consciousness was indeed empty, I guess... your mind lamp was extinguished like this."

"So, all these years...everyone thought I was dead?" Fang Yi never expected this to happen. She is not a stupid girl, and she will soon realize that with his father's guilt towards her, she must do something from!

"Uncle Yangming...what did my father do to Uncle Yangming?" Fang Yi grabbed Zheng Songnian with her backhand and asked eagerly.

Zheng Songnian did not expect Fang Yi to ask Yangming the first time. He frowned and was very dissatisfied: "Junior Sister, is it possible that you still have no change in your affection for Shishu? Don't forget, back then Shishu never laid hands on you." Be merciful! Even if you are fine, it is only natural for Master to vent his anger on you!"

Fang Yi didn't expect that Yangming hadn't clarified what happened back then. She was ashamed and anxious, and she couldn't help covering her face and crying: "Brother, it's not like this. I hurt it myself back then. I have nothing to do with Uncle Yangming!"

"What?!" Zheng Songnian was taken aback, "Junior Sister, what did you say?"

Fang Yi raised her head and said in shame: "Back then, I was weak-minded and outraged by one incident, did something wrong, and framed my uncle..."

When Zheng Songnian suddenly learned of this, he immediately stepped back a few steps, pointed at Fang Yi and said heartbrokenly, "You...you...you are confused!"

Fang Yi lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "Senior brother, I did something wrong, and I will go to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive the punishment after I return to the palace. But now I have to go back to the palace immediately. Back then I lost my disciple's stone tablet, please senior brother send me back to the palace! "

"Time is pressing, no delay!"
