Killing God

On May [-], it was sunny. .

Early in the morning, when Shen Shi opened the stone door and walked out, the fresh sea breeze was blowing in his face, the sky was as blue as washed, and it looked like another sunny day.He walked forward while moving his body, but saw a familiar figure in front of him, Sun You standing on the side of the road smiling and waving to him.

Shen Shi let out a "huh", walked over and said with a smile, "It's weird, why did you get up so early today?"

Sun You said: "I heard that you have gone to Yao Island, how can I not hurry up, or I will really be thrown away by you." He said with a smile, put his hand on Shen Shi's shoulder, and said: "I can't see you You are really talented in the Five Elements technique, and you can actually go to Demon Island in just half a month, how did you do it?"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said: "I didn't do anything special, anyway, I quickly practiced water archery, maybe it's because our seaside has a lot of water vapor?"

Sun You nodded thoughtfully, "Don't tell me, it's really possible. If I knew I would choose water archery, it's true."

Shen Shi smiled and said: "Then you can go to the Five Elements Hall to buy it again."

Sun You bared his teeth like a toothache, shook his head with a wry smile, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly glanced at the road behind Shen Shi, then frowned slightly, but pulled Shen Shi to the side of the road and let the road out.

Shen Shi looked back, and saw that among the many disciples who went to Herring Collection early in the morning, several people came, the first three women were all familiar, they were Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu, and the other was He Xiaomei. The three walked side by side, whispering something to each other, with relaxed smiles on their faces, and not far behind them, Jiang Hongguang followed.

Shen Shi's heart moved, and he felt that Jiang Hongguang seemed to have been by He Xiaomei's side these days.

Three youthful and beautiful girls came over there, and Zhong Qinglu stood in the middle without hesitation, a bit like the eldest sister among the three of them. Sun You looked at this domineering woman who often mocked and despised herself She also kept her distance, and whispered in Shen Shi's ear: "Look at Zhong Qinglu's air, I really don't know why she is so arrogant. Our Sun family is so much stronger than her Zhong family, and I don't even have this kind of spirit!"

Shen Shi smiled, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, she didn't come here to provoke you, so what do you tell her to do?"

Sun You curled his lips, looking disapproving, but he didn't say anything more.The three girls over there were in front, and Jiang Hongguang silently followed behind. A group of people walked over like this, and naturally they all saw Shen Shi and Sun You standing by the roadside.Both He Xiaomei and Zhong Qingzhu nodded and greeted them with a smile, and among them, Zhong Qingzhu's gaze stayed on Shen Shi for a while.

As for Zhong Qinglu, she seemed to be as proud as usual, and didn't pay much attention to the two of them, but for some reason, Jiang Hongguang, who was standing behind the three girls, suddenly felt complacent with his head held high.

Both Sun You and Shen Shi's eyes fell on Jiang Hongguang, and there was no other reason, because the guy's eyes suddenly became a little harsh when he looked over, and his face turned pale, as if he had done something and even brought a few Point of disdain.

Sun You glanced at him, couldn't help lowering his voice, and whispered to Shen Shi in a voice that only Shen Shi could hear: "I said, why is that kid Jiang Hongguang so proud of it over there?"

Shen Shi also didn't quite understand, shook his head, and said blankly: "I don't know." After thinking about it, he glanced at Sun You and said in a low voice, "I've been busy going to Yao Island these two days, so I didn't pay attention Regarding the situation on the island, could it be that you got confused about something and lost to him?"

Sun You was stunned, and seemed to think about it seriously, then shook his head and said: "No, you know that, I have long disliked that kid, and I don't bother to talk to him on weekdays, how could there be such a thing? kind of thing?"

The two looked at each other, and looked back at the same time, only to see that the mysterious complacency on Jiang Hongguang's face was still there. He glanced at the two of them lightly, and then took a step forward quietly, as if congratulating him from the front. Xiaomei got a little closer.

The three girls were about to walk past the two of them, and when Sun You and Shen Shi were paying attention to Jiang Hongguang, who was a bit puzzled, suddenly Zhong Qinglu, who was above the top of the three of them, kept his eyes fixed, stopped suddenly. , then turned to this side, and said with a flat face: "Shen Shi, come here for a while, I have something to tell you."

"what?"

Shen Shi was stunned for a while, and then found that whether it was Sun You, Zhong Qingzhu, He Xiaomei in front of him, or Jiang Hongguang, all around him seemed to have similar weird expressions on their faces, and they all looked at him at the same time.

Shen Shi rubbed his brows in distress, laughed dryly, and walked over.

On the seashore road in the early morning, several young men and women who had been in the same school for three years stood there, looking at Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu behind a big tree on the other side of the secluded beach, all of them had strange expressions on their faces.

It was He Xiaomei who opened the mouth to break the silence first, and seeing this delicate girl with a look of disbelief on her face, she said in surprise: "My dear, I read that right, Sister Qinglu actually, actually took the initiative to take Senior Brother Shen there." talking."

Beside her, Jiang Hongguang stared at the two people under the big tree in the distance, with a look of astonishment on his face, but he diluted the original complacent expression a lot, and said, "Could it be that when the two of them came together and talked to each other?" Ok?"

Sun You immediately shook his head and said, "Impossible, I haven't seen them talking alone together, are you right, Junior Sister Zhong..."

At the end of his speech, he asked Zhong Qingzhu casually, but when he turned his head to look, he was startled. Zhong Qingzhu didn't say a word, and he didn't seem to hear his question, but just stared at Shen Qingzhu in a daze. On the other side of the stone, a bit of confusion appeared on his face.

Under the big tree on the beach, the thick and straight trunk blocked everyone's sight, and only the backs of Shen Shi and Zhong Qinglu could be seen from a distance.As for Shen Shi under the tree, he smiled wryly at this moment and said, "You pull me over, what's the matter?"

Zhong Qinglu said: "Yes, but what is your expression, why do you look unwilling?"

Shen Shi scratched his head, glanced quietly into the distance, and said: "I'm fine, isn't it because I'm afraid that they will find out our deal?"

Zhong Qinglu waved her hand, and said, "What are you afraid of? If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. Who would know? Can't it be okay for me to come and talk to you?"

Shen Shi smiled wryly, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, uh, what do you want to say to me?"

Zhong Qinglu glanced at him, with a rare look of hesitation on his face, but after a while, he still reached into his bosom and took out a small white jade bottle, handed it to Shen Shi, and said, "This is for you."

Shen Shi reached out to take it, and first looked up at Zhong Qinglu, only to see that she seemed to turn her head to look around naturally, and after a moment of hesitation, he opened the cork, and a light scent of medicine wafted away come out.Shen Shi's expression changed slightly, he sniffed it carefully, then tilted the mouth of the bottle and poured it, a pale yellow finger-sized elixir rolled out.

"Nursing Qi Pill?" Chen Shi was taken aback, and said, "I just gave you the spirit crystal last night, you shouldn't have smelted it out this morning?"

Zhong Qinglu chuckled, but then she seemed to think of something, and quickly put on a straight face, with a look of disdain, and said with a sneer: "How is that possible, there are two qi-nourishing pills in this bottle, which are left over from my previous refinement. , I made alchemy ten times in three months, and I succeeded twice, but I took it myself and sold a few in exchange for spirit crystals, and now there are only these two left." After she finished speaking, she glanced at Shen Shi and was silent for a moment After, said,

"Since we've made a deal, we still plan to do it for a long time. It's not very useful for me to keep these two coins, so I'll use them for you first."

Shen Shi nodded, put the Qi Yang Pill back into the jade bottle and put it in his arms, at the same time thoughtfully, said: "That is to say, you have made alchemy probably five times before, um..."

Looking at the expression on Shen Shi's face, Zhong Qinglu suddenly became annoyed for some reason, glared at him, and said angrily, "It's very hard to become one five times, okay? What do you mean? And I'll tell you my ugly words first , There is no way to know about alchemy, maybe I will always fail in the future, so don't cry when the time comes!"

Shen Shi chuckled, and said: "That's right, you reminded me, how about that, that alchemy furnace is worth two hundred spirit crystals, and ten spirit crystals are needed for one qi nourishing pill, if you fail consecutively Twenty times, I really ran away..."

"Hey!" Zhong Qinglu was so angry that he kicked it, and said angrily, "What are you failing twenty times in a row! Do you think I'm a fool?"

Shen Shi smiled without saying a word. After being kicked by Zhong Qinglu, he didn't feel any special pain when he kicked it. Apparently, Zhong Qinglu's youngest daughter kicked him casually when he was angry. He didn't really use much force. Then he looked up at Zhong Qinglu , softly said: "Although I have never learned alchemy, I also know that mistakes in alchemy are common. If I really want to fail, it's nothing serious."

Zhong Qinglu snorted, pursed her lips slightly, glanced at him and did not speak.

At the herring market, everyone parted ways after saying goodbye, and Shen Shi came all the way to the south pier, only to see that like the day before, there were already more than 20 senior brothers and sisters standing here waiting, apparently all of them were going to Demon Island to hunt demons mission.

Among the crowd, there were many familiar faces that they had seen a few days ago, including Chen Tang's group of four who had been in the limelight that day. Obviously, these high-level disciples in the Qi Refining Realm were used to going to Yao Island, but If you think about it, as long as you have enough strength and are not afraid of the risks involved, the task of hunting monsters is actually a very stable and efficient task to obtain spiritual crystal rewards.

When we went to Yaodao the other day, there were dozens of people in a boat, and only Shen Shi was a middle-level Qi Refining Realm, and he was also the only newcomer disciple of this generation who had just started, so many people had an impression of him that day.But this time, Shen Shi soon discovered that there was another boy who was about the same age as himself in the crowd, and standing in the crowd at the same time became a faint center, surrounded by many senior brothers and sisters.

He knew that young man. In fact, on Herring Island, there was almost no one who didn't know him or his name.

He is Gan Ze.
