There was a knock on the door.

Without looking at it, he knew that it was Zhu Dashan, and Zhou Shu opened the door.

Zhu Dashan said with a big grin, "Brother Zhou, it's time to get chores today." ”

"I almost forgot, let's go. ”

Zhou Shu was slightly stunned, and walked towards the dust washing courtyard with Zhu Dashan.

"It's still a two-person chore, right?"

Zhou Shu was grateful, "Well, I'm sorry for you, Lao Zhu." ”

"What's the trouble is not troublesome, small things," Zhu Dashan patted his chest sharply, "You help me more, with your guidance, now I am very smooth, only forty-nine qi veins away from the goal, haha, maybe I am the first in the middle of the three of us!"

Speaking of Qi Pulse, the smile on his face couldn't be stopped at all, and he was extremely happy.

From less than a hundred qi veins, to now two hundred, it is incredible. A cultivator who was recognized as being able to refine his body could now refine his qi normally, which made Zhu Dashan feel excited all the time, so he had always regarded Zhou Shu as the best brother and the most powerful teacher.

Zhou Shu patted him on the shoulder, "Lao Zhu, work harder, and strive to enter the inner door as soon as possible." ”

For several months, the two have been doing double chores patrols, but Zhou Shu only takes the task and does not do it, and says to the disciple who leads the team, Zhou Shu does not want to contribute if he doesn't go, and the contribution is given to the disciple who leads the team. In this way, the disciples who lead the team are also satisfied, and they have to contribute more with less trouble, and they are very happy.

The two of them took the inspection in the same way, and were walking towards the miscellaneous hall, but before they entered the door, a blue-shirted cultivator walked over, "Follow me." ”

"Huh, Senior Brother Yun?"

Zhou Shu and Zhu Dashan were both a little stunned, and the cultivator in front of them was Yunli who they hadn't seen for a long time.

"Senior Brother Yun. You're facing the wall and coming out. It's not been a year, right?"

The clouds that were punished on the wall left the mountain. He looked refreshed, his face was light but it was difficult to hide the luster, and he was probably very close to the Condensation Realm. It's just that there is a hint of worry between his eyebrows, as if there is something on his mind.

Yunli shook his head slightly, didn't say much, directly took out Duyun, and said lightly, "Come up." ”

Zhu Dashan hurriedly said. "Senior Brother Yun, I can go to this mission, Brother Zhou wants to challenge Hong Yuan, time is very tight......"

And Zhou Shu bowed and explained slowly, "Senior Brother Yun, can I not do the task? I don't want to ...... to contribute."

Yun Li didn't say anything, and said indifferently, "Come up, of course." You can also not go. ”

"Senior brother is willing to go. ”

Zhou Shu thought for a moment and went up to Duyun with Zhu Dashan.

He sighed secretly. When I met Yun Li, who I knew well, I thought that I could go back to practice directly without much talk, but I didn't expect Yun Li to be unsympathetic at all, and he didn't listen to explanations, so he asked him to do chores together.

Yunli saw Zhou Shu coming up, nodded slightly, and then led Du Yun and flew directly to the depths of the Lotus Sound Sect.

On the road, Yunli didn't say a word, his expression was indifferent, Zhou Shu and Zhu Dashan were naturally not easy to speak, and they were worried in their hearts.

Flying to a cloud-covered peak, Yunli stopped and said, "Follow me." ”

"Ah, don't you do patrols?"

Zhou Shu and Zhu Dashan looked at each other, both puzzled.

Yunli didn't explain, there was suddenly a flying sword under his feet, and he fell directly into the clouds, and at the same time stretched out his hand, Zhou Shu also floated up, and fell down with Yunli, leaving Zhu Dashan alone on Duyun.

"Hey, what are you doing, senior brother, what do you mean by leaving me hanging here?"

Zhu Dashan looked confused and shouted.

Zhou Shu was even more confused, "Senior Brother Yun, what are you?"

"Come with me, someone wants to see you. ”

Yunli didn't explain much, and led Zhou Shu to a thatched house.

At first glance, the grass hut was unremarkable, and it was not as good as Zhou Shu's own, but when he got closer, he couldn't help but be surprised.

This thatched hut is alive! It does not mean that it can walk or run, but that every thatch that makes up the thatched hut grows very well, and it looks green and full of life. Hundreds of thousands of thatches are stretched together to form the shape of a house, with doors, windows, eaves, etc., all of which are available, and there is no trace of deliberate creation at all, which completely conforms to the nature of heaven.

Letting thatch grow into a house by itself and making a house out of thatch are completely different in nature, and Zhou Shu couldn't think of how to do it.

Only this thatched hut can be seen that the people inside are absolutely extraordinary.

Yunli saw Zhou Shu's astonishment, and said indifferently, "This house wasn't there just now." ”

Zhou Shu was stunned when he heard this, and the surprise in his heart was even more, could it be said that a single thought could make the grass and trees obey the command, and then immediately grow into this? It is simply incredible, unimaginable.

Even a Jindan Realm cultivator or even a Yuan Ying Realm cultivator couldn't do this.

Unless, these are not grasses at all.

"Come in. ”

The thatch opened automatically, and a door was divided, and a flat sound came from the house.

"Yes. ”

Yun Li's expression was respectful, and Zhou Shu also walked towards the grass house with unquenchable suspicion and respect.

A middle-aged cultivator stood in the middle of the grass hut, with black hair and white eyebrows, a faint light in his eyes, holding a cyan wooden sword in his hand, looking at the two of them indifferently.

"Elder Shen, Zhou Shu has brought it. ”

Yun Li bowed and then exited the hut. Standing outside the house, he looked indifferent, but there was a slight worry in his eyes.

Zhou Shu glanced at Shen Wen and immediately saluted, "Disciple Zhou Shu, I have seen Elder Shen." ”

It turned out to be him? He was an elder of the Jindan Realm?

This Elder Shen Wen Shen, Zhou Shu had seen it once during the introductory test, and although he was not impressed, Zhou Shu quickly recognized it.

But it felt a little different, at that time Shen Wen was playing chess on the top of Lingyun Cliff, indifferent and modest, elegant and gentlemanly, and now Shen Wen has a solemn demeanor, and he is still holding a sword in his hand, although it is an ordinary wooden sword, but it gives him a lot of pressure, and this pressure does not come from spiritual power or divine sense, but from the sword itself.

Shen Wen bowed slightly, his face expressionless, "No need to be polite." Zhou Shu, do you know why you came?"

"Disciple doesn't know, is it Senior Brother Hong's business?"

Zhou Shu raised his head and stood aside with his hands down, looking calm.

The matter of him challenging Hong Yuan was boiling in the Heyin faction, and the fact that Hong Yuan was encroaching on and bullying the wind behind it was also publicized through Zhu Dashan's big mouth.

But there has been no movement at the top level, and no one has come out to speak, and the collective silence has been lost.

This made Zhou Shu quite puzzled, could it be that the high-level officials of the Heyin faction didn't care at all, and didn't even do an investigation? This is unlikely, but it seems to be like this.

Naturally, he had a lot of dissatisfaction with this, but he did not show it. In the Heyin faction, he already has a sense of belonging, and he still has expectations for the sect, so he will wait for the sect's reply.

But there is also a time limit for waiting, if the sect has been ignoring it like this, or erasing it lightly, then, the moment he defeats Hong Yuan, it will be the time for him to leave the sect.

The one who should have come still came, but Zhou Shu didn't expect that it was Shen Wen who came.

Shen Wen is Elder Jindan, one of the four sect masters of the Heyin Sect, but more importantly, Shen Wen is also Hong Yuan's mentor. His arrival may not be a good thing for Zhou Shu, and Yun Li's previous performance seems to show this.

Shen Wen looked at Zhou Shu with a straight eye, "Zhou Shu, do you resent the sect very much?"

With the words, an indescribable pressure quickly enveloped Zhou Shu, like ten thousand needles and thorns, pervasive.

This kind of coercion takes into account both divine sense and spiritual power, and it does not hurt people, but it has the effect of calming the soul, which makes people frightened, and cultivators who are not mentally strong will even kneel directly on the ground and honestly explain what they think in their hearts.

It's about the same effect as the canonical character.

Zhou Shu endured it, and although it was painful, he still maintained a clear consciousness.

He shook his head resolutely, "No, the disciple will not be resentful." ”

No matter what you think in your heart, you can't say resentment, as a disciple of the sect, if you say words of resentment against the sect in front of the elders of the sect, there will never be any good fruit to eat.

The previous justification has also become unreasonable, and if someone is caught, there will be a crime for no reason.

Shen Wen was a little surprised, but his face was still solemn, "My disciple robbed you of your things, but I was indifferent and didn't help you get them back, why aren't you resentful?"

Zhou Shu shook his head slowly, "It was Liu Yixiu and Hong Yuan who snatched the disciple's things, and they had nothing to do with the elder, nor was it instructed by the elder, why should the disciple resent the elder? As for the elder not caring for the time being, the disciple can also understand that it is the original intention of the cultivator to cultivate immortals by solving his own affairs, and I believe that the sect will definitely handle it impartially." ”

Shen Wen smiled indifferently, "It's a good fair deal, most of you are not convinced, right? Since you challenged Hong Yuan, everything has not gone well, all the disciples have made things difficult, and even several peak masters are targeting you, why don't you resent it?"

"The interference of external objects cannot affect the disciple, the disciple has nothing to dissatisfaction with, and the disciple feels that with Elder Shen's generosity, he will never deliberately let others do this kind of thing, this is all their own opinion, and it has nothing to do with Elder Shen. ”

The pressure around him became more and more intense, but Zhou Shu looked calm.

A shallow smile appeared on Shen Wen's face, "You understand, but you also know that if I want to stop them, it will be easy, as long as I speak, you will not be subjected to any trouble at all, but I don't." Even then, don't you hold a grudge?"

Zhou Shu still shook his head, "The disciple doesn't dare, how wise the elder is, he naturally has his own considerations, and the disciple feels that these are all tests for the disciples by the elders and the sect, and they are only good for the disciples." ”

These words were a bit of a trick, but he knew that if he spoke resentful words now, the result would never be good.

The more you go to the back, the more you can't change your statement, you must stand up.

"I don't know if I don't dare, you are very good at talking, and you seem to be very loyal to the sect. ”

Shen Wen smiled slightly, but his face changed in an instant, and his words changed suddenly, "But do you really think so?"

The thatched hut was instantly turbulent, the thatch shook like a wave, and Zhou Shu was like a boat in a storm, which would capsize at any time. (To be continued.) )
