It's no different from other flower shops. The difference is that the flowers in this shop are not so bright, but a little dim.
"What flowers do you two guests want?"
An old woman in her seventies came over shakily with a cane.
Su Yin looked at the other person, she was just an ordinary person without any cultivation, but he was sure that the holy remains of the painting saint Wu Daoxian were on her body.
Su Yin said: "Let's take a look first..."
Although I really want to take away the holy relics, I still can't do it if I have no grievances against the other party and snatch it directly. I have to find a suitable reason or buy it directly if the other party is willing to make a bid.
"Two of you, look first. I have boiled some water in the stove and will start it soon..." The old woman shook her head and walked slowly inside. The door curtain flickered and disappeared from sight.
"Her flowers don't seem as bright as the ones next door. Why do you come here?"
Feng Qiqiu looked over doubtfully.
I don't know if it's because the old lady has limited flower-growing skills or because the varieties of flowers are not good enough, but the style of the entire flower shop is a bit dark gray and looks a bit bleak.
When buying flowers, naturally the more gorgeous the better.
"Don't you think there's something wrong with these flowers?" Su Yin sent a message.
Feng Qiqiu looked around with confusion: "What's the problem?"
Knowing that although the other party was growing flowers, they were not sophisticated, Su Yin explained: "These flowers lack vitality and nutrients, and they seem to be supporting something... wrong!"
Before he finished speaking, Su Yin realized something and hurriedly walked towards the flower shop. Before he could get far, he heard the whistling wind.
Dozens of thorny vines suddenly shot out from under the flowerpot and stabbed straight at the two of them, like whips whipping into the air, full of power.
"Ghost grass?"
Raising his eyebrows, Feng Qiuyu flipped his hand, and a ball of flame spurted out.
Crackling!
The vines burned with fire and made a crisp sound, and then more vines rushed over. For a moment, the entire flower shop seemed like a big octopus had crawled into it, waving its claws and attacking others.
Su Yin waved his hand, cut off a few vines, and continued rushing in. He arrived at the door curtain in the blink of an eye, and hurriedly opened it.
On the stove in the flower shop, a kettle was blaring sharply, but the room was empty. The old woman just now had long since disappeared, as if she had never appeared.
"what happened?"
Feng Qiqiu also realized that something was wrong at this time, burned all the vines with a fire, and came forward.
These ghost grasses are okay against some golden immortals, but they have no effect on monks like her who are comparable to saints.
"She has the holy remains of the painting saint Wu Daoxian..." Su Yin's face turned pale.
"this… "
Pupils shrank, Feng Qiqiu understood why the other party came here, and raised her eyebrows: "Chase!"
The two of them rushed out of the room at the same time and were suspended in the air.
There were crowds of people all around, including all kinds of people, except for the old woman just now, who seemed to have evaporated from the world in an instant.
"How could you run so fast?"
Feng Qiqiu couldn't believe it.
From the moment the other party entered the door curtain to the time Su Yin asked the question and the Ghost Spirit Grass attacked, it took no more than five breaths. If he flew away, it would definitely attract others' attention and reveal his traces. If he walked, he would never go beyond the line of sight. How could it be possible? , can't find anything
The most important thing is that they didn't say anything and didn't use their cultivation skills. How did the other party notice that something was wrong
"That's a good guess. This guy is often hunted down, so he was alert. When we entered the flower shop, he didn't look like someone buying flowers. You didn't deliberately hide the power of your bloodline! This aroused suspicion."
Su Yin said, knowing what she was thinking.
Feng Qiqiu, as a strong member of the Phoenix clan, even if he suppresses his aura, the bloodline power that makes the white bird bow his head still exists. If the opponent's cultivation is at the peak of the quasi-immortal, he will definitely be able to detect something is wrong.
When he realized something was wrong, he immediately let the Ghost Spirit Grass attack to delay the attack, while he turned around and ran away. This man was really decisive.
Even Su Yin didn't expect it.
"What should we do?"
Feng Qiqiu looked over.
"She escaped very quickly and hid very well, but she didn't know that I was not looking for her based on her identity, but based on her holy remains!"
Not in a hurry, Su Yin started thinking about the Painting Saint's Way in his mind. After a moment, he turned his eyes to one side.
What appeared in sight was a river. A woman wearing lavender clothes was holding a round fan in her hand, standing on the bow of a awning boat, with a slight smile on her face.
She is very beautiful and fairy-like, just like a lady in a painting.
call!
Without any hesitation, Su Yin swayed slightly and landed on the bow of the ship. Feng Qiqiu was a little confused, but he still followed.
There was a hint of panic in the woman's eyes, but she quickly calmed down and bowed Yingying: "I don't know, young master, what are you doing with me?"
"You know what I mean, and you also know that you are not our opponent!"
Su Yin smiled slightly: "Don't think about escaping. I can buy the things in your storage ring with money, or I can pay the price you want and put them in your hands. In the current situation, you can't succeed. "
"I don't understand what the young master said..." the woman said with an awkward smile.
"You must understand. Didn't you escape very quickly in the flower shop just now?" Su Yin chuckled.
"you… "
The woman's pupils shrank and she trembled slightly.
Seeing the change in her expression, Su Yin said: "Your current appearance is probably a result of painting. The painter is good and the reaction is first-rate. Unfortunately... I seem to know more than you about painting!"
"You are indeed very powerful..." She snorted, and the woman's voice was somewhat similar to that of the old woman just now.
"painting?"
Feng Qiqiu was a little curious after hearing the conversation.
"Both the old woman and this woman just now are not her real appearance, but are drawn with a pen..." Su Yin explained.
The makeup from previous lives can look fake and real, making it impossible for anyone to tell the difference, let alone a strong painter.
"After running away for so long, I didn't expect to be caught again. This time, I admit defeat..."
The woman sighed, pinched her fingers gently, and the storage ring appeared on her fingertips: "I'll give you this thing, just let me go!"
After saying that, she flicked her finger, and the ring flew away into the distance with a "Woo!" sound. But she herself turned around, "Plop!" and got into the water with a sound. The next moment, she disappeared like a swimming fish.
"Oops… "
I didn't expect this guy to be so decisive. Feng Qiqiu turned her delicate body and flew towards the storage ring. She grabbed it in the air and held it on her fingertips.
Su Yin shook his head: "No need to look, it's empty..."
"empty?"
Feng Qiqiu was stunned, and his consciousness spread inside. Sure enough, he saw that the storage ring was empty.
He threw an empty ring and jumped into the water to escape while they were distracted... This scheming and decisiveness is admirable.
"Since you know it's fake, why didn't you stop it? Jumping into the water hid your breath, and it won't be that easy to find it again..."
He extended his consciousness and searched around, but found nothing. Feng Qiqiu couldn't help but say.
You all guessed that she was making trouble, why didn't you stop her? As long as you stop it for a second and react, you can easily keep it!
"Don't worry, I said, I'm not looking for her because of her looks or figure..." Su Yin smiled faintly.
For him, as long as the other party does not throw away the holy remains of the painting saint Wu Daoxian, no matter how many times he puts on makeup or hides it secretly, it will be of no use.
Instead of leaving, Su Yin turned around and came to the stern of the boat. He squatted down and looked into the water: "Why, why don't you come out? Do you want me to catch you out?"
Feng Qiqiu's face was full of doubts, and she was about to ask him what he was doing. Then he saw a figure slowly emerging from the water where his consciousness had not detected anything just now.
She is no longer the maid just now, but a middle-aged boatman, wearing simple clothes. The most important thing is... coming out of the water, there is no water drop on his clothes.
"This..." Feng Qiqiu's eyes widened.
She was able to get into the water without getting her clothes wet, but in just a few breaths, she turned into another person, which was really unbelievable.
The most important thing is that if Su Yin hadn't been able to sense the skeleton of the Painting Saint, the other party could have hidden under the boat and then come out after they left.
Since then, no one could have imagined that she would come back and be a boatman!
"I'm very surprised, how did you find me?"
When the boatman came to work overtime, he was no longer as panicked as before, but looked over with confusion. It was obvious that she couldn't understand either.
After stealing the holy bones, she had been hunted for many years. With this method, she had escaped countless dangers, even the saints were no exception. She never expected that with the young man, she would completely fail.
"Can we have a good talk?"
Without answering her question, Su Yin smiled and said, "You should understand that we are fully capable of killing you and taking your things away!"
The boatman was silent.
No matter how she disguises herself, the other party can see through her identity, and based on this alone, she cannot escape.
If he really wanted to be malicious, this boy could easily kill him without him taking action.
They are both at the pinnacle of Quasi-Saints and practice painting, so they are almost the weakest.
"please!"
Su Yin greeted.
The boatman said no more and came to the cabin, where the three of them sat down separately.
"I know the painting saint's bones are in your hands. Tell me what you need to do before you can give them to me!" Su Yin said.
"You are very direct!"
The boatman sneered. The man's body and the woman's voice seemed very strange: "If I keep it in my hand, I might attack the Painting Saint. So, what price do you think you can afford?"
"If you don't give it, you will die!" Su Yin said.
"You threaten me?" The boatman gritted his teeth.
"It's not a threat, it's a fact!" Su Yin said.
"You..." The boatman was silent.
Indeed, the other party seems to have a good temper. In fact, this is a moral dispute. Killing is common. If you really don't give it, you really dare to kill.
"I see that although the appearance you painted can be fake and real, it lacks a kind of spirit. I guessed it right. When you painted, you should not be sure of the charm. Even if you continue to put the painting saint's bones in your hands and want to make a breakthrough, It’s also difficult to succeed!”
Su Yin flipped his wrist, and a scroll appeared in front of him: "This painting was made by me. It has a charming painting technique. If you copy it a few times, you should be able to take a step forward in painting!"
The boatman frowned.
She has seen this kind of people a lot. They seem kind, but they are actually more shameless than outright robbery. The latter, at least, has a bad reputation. And this kind of person, who wants fame and things at the same time... is hypocritical to the extreme!
You don't need to look at it to know that this painting must be very ordinary. Let alone the painting of holy bones, it may not even be able to replace it in her flower shop.
However, people under the eaves have to lower their heads. Life and death are under the control of the other person. No matter how bitter the medicine is, they can only hold their noses and swallow it.
"Okay, I admit it!"
With a cold snort, the boatman did not open the scroll, but flipped his wrist, and a skeleton appeared in front of the two of them.
There is no flesh and blood, just a skeleton, exuding the charm of painting.
"Let's go!"
Unexpectedly, it was so easy to obtain this skeleton. Su Yin gently grabbed it and put it into the storage ring.
Feng Qiqiu nodded, and the two of them got out of the awning boat, tore open the space, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Why!"
Seeing them leaving, the boatman sighed, his eyes filled with disappointment.
After stealing the painting saint's bones for so many years, I thought I would have a chance to peek into the saint's realm, but now it seems that I still underestimate the world's heroes.
However, for more than a thousand years, I have been worried about this kind of treasure on my body, but today I am completely relieved.
"I don't know what kind of rubbish painting it is..."
His eyes fell on the scroll the other party placed in the cabin. He was about to throw it away, but after thinking about it, he slowly opened it.
call!
The content of the scroll immediately appeared in front of you.
It is a piece of grassland, with a few sheep grazing quietly. It looks very simple, without too much rendering or writing, but it fully displays the vast charm of the grassland, giving people a sense of majesty, openness and vastness. .
boom!
With a jolt in his mind, the boatman seemed to have entered the scroll for an instant and entered another world.
The wild grass is low, the white birds are galloping, and the fresh air is breathtaking.
"This is...the universe in the painting? This, this..."
His lips trembled, and the boatman kept trembling.
She is Wu Yuechou, the strange female painter with a sharp and strange style described by Mr. Xue!
Although I haven't become a saint yet, my understanding of the Tao of painting is not much different. Even so, seeing this painting, I almost lost my Taoist heart!
The universe in the painting is a special ability that was only realized by the painting sage Wu Daoxian. The meaning contained in it can make people feel as if they have entered a real world with its own universe at a glance!
I thought that what the other party gave me was just rubbish. I never imagined that it was actually this thing...
To her now, the value is definitely far greater than the bones.
In other words, the other party exchanged sincerely, rather than fooling around and being a hypocrite. On the contrary, her villain's heart judged the heart of a gentleman.
"I know very clearly how many works the painting saint had in his lifetime. There is absolutely no one like this. Could it be... that he really painted it himself?"
Thinking of the young man's words, Wu Yuechou hurriedly looked at the signature of the scroll, and then saw a line of writing - On the third day after leaving the forbidden area, written in Yinxianju, Su Yin!
"Su Yin?"
Wu Yuechou froze on the spot, his eyes wandering: "Is he that boy?"
