Shang Jiyu and Xiao Shen were on the cross-legged couch, and he touched the silver ring to release Xiao Shen from the restraint.
This spirit control ring looks ordinary, but it must have consumed a lot of energy. It seems that Xiaoshen may really be a dragon. The Jiao family is already the aquarium whose blood is closest to that of a dragon in the world, and has also produced a famous cultivator. Xiaoshen wandered outside alone, and he didn't know why.
Shang Jiyu's master is not only good at fighting, but also a master of making weapons. As a disciple, there is no reason for him to be unreasonable. Spiritual flow to investigate, although the method is unfamiliar, but somehow found a clue, made some progress.
But Sunset Moonrise had to stop.
"Come here first today." His brows and eyes were indifferent, and they had changed unconsciously.
At night, it's time to turn it upside down and let Xiaoshen help him.
Although this prolongs the time by at least half, it is still much faster than other people's solutions.
Xiaoshen was secretly happy, and carefully took care of the little bit of spiritual power that had been lost and recovered, and his feet were no longer soft, he was very satisfied.
"The sun is setting, so let's lie down. I like to lie down." Xiao Shen said.
Shang Jiyu: "..."
Probably thought too much, Xiaoshen didn't understand the language of the human race. Whatever words come out of his mouth always lose some of their original flavor.
Shang Jiyu looked hesitant, he didn't ask for this matter... It was him and it wasn't him.
Seeing that he was silent, Xiaoshen said, "Is it not? I don't..."
Just go for a stroll outside to see if you can find the whereabouts of his water.
Xiaoshen was sitting cross-legged opposite Shang Jiyu, and was about to stand up while propping up the couch, when a warm jade-like hand quietly held his ankle, telling him to fall into Shang Jiyu's arms.
Shang Jiyu lowered his eyes, he was completely subconscious just now, as if he was holding Xiaoshen tightly after seeing Xiaoshen.
Duplicity, he naturally needs Xiaoshen.
The boy's soft body sat in his arms, his back pressed against his chest.
Shang Jiyu sighed: "... just sit down."
How uncomfortable is it to sit? But Xiaoshen is still willing to satisfy this favorite Shang Jiyu.
He adjusted his posture and felt that it was actually not bad. He bent his bare feet and drew the whole dragon into the arms of Shang Jiyu who was sitting solemnly.
Hongmeng Palace
Xie Kurong sat crookedly on the chair, and the deacons in charge of the affairs of the sect were listed under him. One deacon said: "Sect Master, the master who was elected the day before yesterday entered Shulin and was kicked out."
"Get out again?" Xie Kurong only felt that his head was about to hurt again.
The book forest of Yuling Sect has a collection of books like a sea, and there are thousands of secret books on Taoism and Dharma. They also need to be managed by people, and they are called Zhuhan.
Anyone who is appointed as the master must be proficient in writing and ink, with extensive knowledge, and his cultivation cannot be too low.
The previous Zhuhan passed away three years ago, so they started to choose a new Zhuhan. However, the position of Zhuhan is a bit special. You can't choose whoever you want, and even Xie Kurong can't make the decision alone.
A dozen people were selected and sent one after another, but none of them succeeded in becoming Zhuhan.
All the deacons also felt speechless, as usual, each drew up a few more names and handed them over to Xie Kurong.
It has to be like this, and then pick and choose, I don't know when it will succeed.
"Could it be that my Yuling Sect, the Manzong Sect, can't choose a master." Xie Kurong said sullenly, isn't that ridiculous.
A deacon said: "Speaking of this, suzerain, I heard from Chen Que that you went out of the mountain yesterday and brought back a water tribe with low spiritual power, and this water tribe can't read?"
Chen is really in charge of permanent residence affairs, and when there is a turnover of personnel, he will monitor and record them, regardless of whether they are inside the family or not.
Xie Kurong: "..."
He knew it would spread widely.
The fact that Yulingzong became illiterate was not a major event, but it was enough for everyone to talk about it for a while, after all, it was the first time.
Other deacons who had not heard of it were also surprised.
"What? I can't read? Why can't I read?"
"This, where did I find this!"
"Little Shen you mentioned, just how uneducated..."
Everyone was curious as to why Xie Kurong would bring back an illiterate person. All the attention was focused on this, and he didn't even care about his low spiritual power.
Xie Kurong couldn't tell the patriarch's will, and besides, the patriarch didn't let him bring Xiaoshen back.
Xie Kurong said vaguely: "What a big deal, I have already asked Dao Mi to teach Xiaoshen to learn how to read!"
Biqiao Peak.
After one night, Shang Jiyu was still neat and tidy, but Xiaoshen who was entangled with him in every possible way was on him, like a dragon and a tiger.
For hundreds of years, Shang Jiyu had never had such close contact with a human being, and this was the first time for him to be a young man.
The lights were not turned on at night, and the room was dark. Shang Jiyu closed his eyes again and lost his vision, but he could smell the faint moisture from the young man's body, moist and slightly sweet, which left a deeper imprint on his mind.
The boy's breathing, like the tide, is slow and regular, making the spiritual power in his body calm and obedient.
Xiaoshen opened his eyes and saw Shang Jiyu who was upright, and immediately understood that it was the other one, and said with a smile, "Can you get up now?"
Shang Jiyu helped Xiaoshen to sit up, and when his palms were separated from Xiaoshen's waist, a faint sense of loss came to his mind, "...um."
"I made an appointment with Dao Mi, and I will learn to read today." Xiao Shen said to Shang Ji Yu, "Or go to Luo Zhou yesterday and wait for him?"
Shang Jiyu: "You mean Wanlong Terrace? Not bad."
Xiao Shen: "..."
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Shang Jiyu said helplessly: "...it used to be called Cun Xie Tai, but he changed it."
This "he" naturally refers to the other side of Shang Jiyu.
One more note for you...
Sure enough, he is not a good person.
Xiaoshen said depressedly: "Forget it, I'm leaving."
He turned around and took a few steps outside, suddenly felt something was wrong, the sound of footsteps seemed to be overlapped, and when he looked back, he saw Shang Jiyu coming out after him, and he said happily, "Are you going to read too?"
Shang Jiyu was taken aback when he saw his happy expression, and then smiled.
"No...you come back earlier."
He just unknowingly followed Xiaoshen again, and even after he finished speaking, he realized that he had said something so affectionate.
It's just that Xiaoshen didn't notice it at all, and probably wasn't sensitive to human words.
"I know! I'll deal with it!" Literate and illiterate, of course it is important to untie the restriction and find water, Xiaoshen didn't take it seriously at all, just fooling around.
Daomi came to pick up Xiaoshen in a small boat as promised, and saw that he had changed into another outfit, this time wearing the style of his master and uncle, but the jade belt was the same as before, and he walked like flying, which was quite different from the previous soft feet. same.
It seems that although the spiritual power is low, the vigor is no longer so weak.
Thinking that when Brother Xiaoshen first appeared, he only had a ragged shirt and this jade belt on his body, I am afraid that this is the only personal belongings in his whole body.
The book forest is not on the mountain, but a large floating flat land with majestic buildings on it, and a few big characters painted with iron and silver hooks written on the plaque...but Xiaoshen doesn't know it. Surrounded by the Ligou River, it looks like a floating island.
"This is the immovable place." Dao Mi introduced that there are many small boats parked here. No matter what time of day, the Yuling Sect and Shulin are always the busiest.
Dao Mi grew up in the Yuling Sect, so he is very familiar with this place. "Back then, Patriarch Fangcun traveled eastward and arrived in Yuling. He met the ghost Xiu Changen, and he was exposing books. There are so many volumes..."
Xiao Shen interrupted him: "What are you doing?"
Daomi: "The books and albums are huge and numerous."
"Oh," Xiaoshen said in distaste, "It's enough for you to read a lot."
Daomi was wronged, ah, brother Xiaoshen's knowledge is as poor as his pocket.
Daomi didn't do it on purpose either. To Daomi, many words are used daily, and he couldn't imagine how ignorant Xiao Shen was. For the people of Yuling Sect, knowing one idiom is illiterate, and knowing a hundred idioms is also illiterate, not so much. There is always something missing.
Daomi changed his words and said: "There are as many books as there are in the sea. The patriarch was amazed that Chang En took the body of a ghost. He would rather be burned by the scorching sun than to dry the books. He loved books, so he stayed to help him dry the books and organize the collection.
"Later Zhang En ascended to the throne, and it is said that he became the God of Secretary of Books, and those books were also left to the ancestors. Among them are not only human knowledge, but also the way of longevity. After reading all the books, the real person suddenly realized, Yuling preached, and became a five thousand year old learning !
"The listeners paid homage to the entrance wall one after another, and established a sect based on this, referring to the place as the name, which is the Yuling sect. Yuling's successors also love books. Back then, the bookstore put a collection of books, and later they will continue to add new books. Human classics, or classics of Taoism.
"Here is the most complete collection of books in the world. The deeper you go, the deeper the content."
Daomi brought Xiaoshen into the first floor of the book forest. It was extremely quiet here, but there were at least hundreds of people among the bookshelves, either shuttled around, or sat quietly and read.
Daomi also lowered his voice a little, "There are disciples here, and some are sent to study here. It's hard to distinguish without looking at the tokens, but our disciples like to wear white. There are still few people now, mainly because of the management. The position of the master of Shulin is vacant, and some places in the depths are not allowed to enter without the permission of the master, and some classics can only be borrowed if the teacher and the master both nod... Anyway, the absence of the master is very troublesome! No one thought , it will be suspended for three years."
No matter how much more, Daomi didn't go into details, anyway, the illiterate Xiaoshen brother won't be able to use it for a while.
He didn't know, he kept babbling all day long, and Xiao Shen didn't listen to Bai Yi's voice...
Xiao Shenxin said that none of them are as good-looking as Shang Jiyu.
Sure enough, it is the most complete collection of books in the world, including even entry-level books for children to learn characters. Daomi rummaged through a book, found a corner and sat down, "Senior Xiaoshen, now I will teach you how to recognize characters. Your name."
"Deep, from the water." On the table was a pen and ink that he could use freely, and Daomi wrote the word "deep" with the pen.
"Okay, I'll remember it!" Xiao Shen took a look.
"Then let's learn the basics again, heaven, earth and people..." Dao Mi always felt that brother Xiaoshen's attitude was a bit perfunctory.
Xiaoshen wanted to say that today is enough, but suddenly remembered something, and said: "Wait, you teach me two words first."
He also picked up a pen, tapped on the table, and said deeply, "How do you write 'repay debt'?"
Daomi: "??"
Daomi felt strange, why did he learn these two characters, but he still wrote it down.
Xiao Shen felt as if he had found a treasure, and said, "I'm a little tired today, so let's go here and go back."
Daomi: "?! Not good!"
It really wasn't an illusion, it was very perfunctory.
Xiao Shen stood up, "What's wrong, I feel dizzy when I see the words—"
He suddenly stopped talking, as if he saw some black spots flashing across the bookshelves, but it disappeared after he looked closely, which was very strange.
What the hell is it? Xiao Shen does whatever he thinks about, pawing at the bookshelf and climbing up to read it.
"What are you doing? Is there anyone who holds a book like this?" A strange voice sounded behind him.
Xiaoshen turned his head and looked down. It was a young man in white, with phoenix eyes flying sideways, looking over curiously.
"Senior Brother Xuanwuzi." Daomi greeted.
The senior brother Xuan Wuzi hummed casually, and only said to Xiaoshen: "You, come down."
Xiaoshen didn't see the black spots anymore, and jumped off the bookshelf.
After jumping down like this, his figure became even smaller, Xuan Wuzi saw his face clearly, lowered his head and said: "You don't know, it's the little demon brought back by the suzerain yesterday, it's lively..."
Xiaoshen glanced at him, sensed the teasing in his tone, and turned his head proudly.
Although he can't understand human words, don't think he doesn't know, this is the tone he used to force the turtle to dance before.
"Ignore me? Humph." Xuanwuzi is also an outstanding talent in Yuling, but unfortunately he is not too tall, so when he saw the petite Xiaoshen, he talked more, "Climbing up to find what books? Come down and I will help you." you take."
The young man is weak and weak, and his spiritual power is low, so it may be inconvenient to hold the books above him. Although it is to help, but no matter how it sounds, it is full of jokes.
"Brother is so enthusiastic today? If you can't get it, don't do your business." Dao Mi and him are not on good terms. Xuan Wuzi is usually very arrogant, but now he firmly stands by Brother Xiaoshen, and said coolly.
"Why don't you do my business?" Xuan Wuzi said leisurely, "The master Han is being selected, and I am also one of the candidates, and I have reported it to the suzerain. Maybe, every book here... will do my business in the future."
Daomi was startled.
Xuan Wuzi is not very old, he is already in the Tinglei realm (fifth realm), at this stage, you can start to refine your spells, because you have to go through the thunder disaster, so it is called Tinglei. Xuan Wuzi is a leader of all kinds, and has the ability of photographic memory. At this age, being selected into the list, no matter whether he is selected or not, is already a great recognition, so Xuan Wuzi proudly said it.
But Daomi is an aborigine who has grown up in Yuling for several generations. Even if he is an outer sect, he is a little arrogant, and he still hums unconvincingly, but he is not so impolite.
I didn't expect there to be more generous than Dao Mi.
Xiao Shen proudly said: "So what, I can't read!"
He doesn't borrow any books!
Xuan Wuzi: "..."
Doya: "..."
Xuan Wuzi was also shocked by Xiaoshen's proud expression and shocking content, "What are you talking about, you can't read?"
It was only then that he noticed that there were indeed simple words such as heaven, earth and man written on the table, and he took a deep breath.
It is illiterate! He is a rare illiterate in the Yuling area!
Xuan Wuzi murmured: "I've never seen an illiterate person... How old are you? How can you be illiterate?"
The more he looked at it, the more curious he felt, and he wished to study it carefully, how he could come in without knowing how to read.
"Senior Brother Xuan Wuzi!" Dao Miyu said earnestly, "You don't want a hen to hatch a duckling!"
Still holding on to this problem, even if Brother Xiaoshen doesn't feel ashamed, the pressure on him, the person in charge of literacy for Brother Xiaoshen, is still quite high.
Xiao Shen asked sincerely, "What do you mean?"
Daomi: "Mind your own business!"
Xiaoshen felt the mystery of the human language, and burst out laughing.
Xuan Wuzi: "..."
He has seen this kind of virtue of Dao Mi before, but this little aquarium... the tone of questioning is extremely sincere, and they sing and harmonize with each other, and they cooperate perfectly.
— This is why Xuan Wuzi misunderstood them, and it was also unintentional.
However, Xuan Wuzi was so angry that he laughed instead. He felt that if he competed with them, he would appear to be bullying the weak. One of them just passed the porch (the third stage), and the other was even worse. ).
He put up his airs again, and said proudly: "Then study hard, there will always be a day when you can 'do your thing', and you will know after reading a few more books. If you want to know everything, it all depends on the books of the ancients!"
After finishing speaking, he walked away in a cool manner.
Xuan Wuzi didn't go too far, and he could vaguely hear the little Shui tribe not only not being handsome by him, but saying: "Nonsense, this person is really uneducated!"
Ten thousand years ago, would he still not know what kind of things he was, and what books to read.
Xuan Wuzi: "???"
... No, hold back! Real celebrities can't look back at the quarrel!
Not long after Xuanwuzi left, Xiaoshen didn't learn a few words, so he made an excuse at random, yelling that learning the human language might be as annoying as Xuanwuzi, so he took the paper with the words "repaying debts" written on it. run outside.
Daomi complained, originally he only needed to do odd jobs, but brother Xiaoshen was illiterate, for the sake of Yuling Sect’s reputation, he had to teach Brother Xiaoshen, otherwise he would not be able to explain to the suzerain, unexpectedly Brother Xiaoshen would not cooperate , the task suddenly became heavier.
Xiaoshen jumped onto the boat, and the boat automatically said without wind, "Don't study, don't study, don't come to me!"
Daomi: "No! Come back soon!"
Xuan Wuzi was on another small boat, had already drifted a certain distance, saw this and said loudly, "Dao Mi, senior brother is here to help you."
Ha, I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly, I have to take the opportunity to frighten this ignorant little monster.
Dao Mi couldn't see it, and said angrily, "What are you doing!"
When he sacrificed the magic weapon, he used his own feathers to ask the elders to help him sacrifice it.
How could Xuan Wuzi be afraid, their realms are several levels behind, but he also deliberately sacrificed his magic weapon, which is a ruler, which grows when it sees the wind, and is as shiny as jade.
But when Daomi saw it, he knew that the texture looked warm and moist like jade, but in fact it was a treasure given to him by the suzerain after Xuan Wuzi won a small competition in the sect a few years ago. This object comes from the deep sea, and it is extremely hard, and because it is only found in the deep sea, it is very rare. It is said that the ancient dragons used it to build their nests, which shows that it is rare and powerful. At that time, others were very envious.
It took Xuanwuzi several years to refine such a treasure, and it seems that it has finally been refined into a magic weapon, because it is too difficult to refine, and there is no fancy shape, it is straight and square.
Xuanwuzi waved his finger together, the ruler flew up and hung in the sky, he said to Xiaoshen: "It's not good to play truant, senior brother will teach you how to be a man today."
Xiao Shen: "Why am I a human being??"
Xuan Wuzi: "..."
He also felt that he had made a mistake, smiled sarcastically, and simply stopped talking, and the ruler flew towards Xiaoshen. His ruler made of white sea sand is his new favorite recently, and he always shows it off when he has nothing to do.
He could almost imagine that just by flying to the little demon's eyes so quickly, then stopping quickly, and suddenly rising and falling, the little demon would be able to sit down with weak legs...
It's not an exaggeration, if it's an ordinary low-level cultivator, but the brilliance of this ruler can frighten their hearts to tremble wildly.
Seeing something flying towards him, Xiaoshen raised his hand subconsciously to block it.
Xuan Wuzi didn't expect that he would stretch out his hand instead of avoiding it, with such a temper, his face changed, and he quickly retracted the ruler.
But Xiaoshen's speed was not too slow, his tender fist had already touched the ruler, and from the point of contact with the ruler, there were cobweb-like cracks blooming in the surroundings!
Daomi and Xuanwuzi: "????"
Xuan Wuzi took back the ruler and took it in his hand, and a few crumbs fell from it, indicating that it would be smashed to pieces at a later date...
Unbelievable, the delicate and lovely Xiaoshen cracked his ruler with a hammer with his white and tender hands.
—Why do you say that the Dragon Clan doesn't like to talk about realms, and it's not convenient to talk about realms
The realm is determined by the human race, which realm refines the mind and which realm refines the body. However, dragons are born with great strength, and the strength of dragon scales is rare in the world.
Xiaoshen's spiritual power has only been restrained, and the dragon body is still there. Although his cultivation is so low that he is only at the first or second level, smashing a magic weapon across borders is not like playing. This is a talent...
Not to mention that he raised his hand, even if he stood here and let Xuan Wuzi smash it, with his cultivation level, he wouldn't be able to break Xiaoshen's dragon scales.
He was so angry that he wanted to beat his chest and feet, no wonder his cultivation base was so low and illiterate, the suzerain would bring it back! The physical body is so strong!
What the hell is it? It has a shell, it definitely has a shell!
At this moment, a stream of light hit from the side of the mountain.
Those who can fly around here have extraordinary status.
Xuan Wuzi looked up—
The young man in white hung his hands behind his back in the air, his black hair flying in the wind. It's a coincidence that he is also a person who is good at cross-border fights, but this is Shang Jiyu, the little master uncle who has created a great reputation as a cross-border murderer since he became famous.
Because Xuan Wuzi was surprised by Shang Jiyu's appearance, his heart ached no longer...
Shang Jiyu looked expressionless, "What's the matter?"
Daomi's jaw was about to drop from shock. He was so anxious just now that he boldly sent a sound transmission to the suzerain and his uncle... Unexpectedly, his uncle really came, and he came so quickly, and it was only a blink of an eye.
Xiao Shen pointed at Xuan Wuzi and said, "He hit me with something!"
Xuan Wuzi holding the ruler: "..."
