Chapter 22 Going South
After half a stick of incense.
[You have fulfilled your wife Bian's "Wish 1": to find someone to rely on for your son Cao Ang.]
【Wife favorability level 20】
[The current favorability of my wife Bian is 60, and my attribute will be randomly increased by 1 point every day.]
【Gold spiritual root 1】
[Gold Spiritual Root: False (71/100)]
The sage Shen Bi looked at the wedding tent ceiling with open eyes, quietly watching the information jumping out of the sea of consciousness.
Ms. Bian’s wish is really ‘simple’, but I don’t know what her next wish will be.
Mature women always hide their worries in their hearts, unlike little maids like Xiaohuan who can see through them at a glance.
However, this time he finally randomly found metallic spiritual roots. I wonder if this trip to Daliang will give him a chance to upgrade all the metal and wood spiritual roots to low-grade ones.
While I was thinking wildly, a lotus arm wrapped around me.
"Shen Lang?"
Shen Bi secretly took a drop of insect wine in his mouth and gritted his teeth: "Here we come!"
……
Seven days later.
In the early morning, the dew has not yet cleared.
Next to the official road going south, a crisp sound of horse hooves came, drowning out the birdsong in the forest.
The sound of horse hooves approached, and a white horse emerged from the forest, throwing up a cloud of dust.
The dew was stained by dust, and seemed to be a little heavier. It slowly slipped from the branches and leaves, fell to the ground, and melted into the soil.
Sitting on the horse was a man in black, wearing a short fighting uniform, looking brave and upright.
The man was Shen Bi, who was newly married. After a few days of inseparable newlywed life with Mr. Bian, he still set foot on the road south.
The blood feud in the Shen Mansion and the secret of the witchcraft sect.
During this trip, he plans to go to southern Xinjiang to look for the witchcraft sect and find out what’s going on.
Waiting for others to come to the Shen residence is too passive after all.
In Bian's sad eyes, Shen Bi still pulled himself out of the love between his children.
After running all night, Shen Bi reached out and explored the neck of the horse under his crotch, and there was already a thin layer of sweat on it.
Seeing some smoke ahead, he picked up the reins, turned the horse's head, and ran straight away.
This is a tea stall. Although it is early in the morning, there are not many customers.
There are horse teams for merchants, escorts for escorts, and knights traveling around the world. There are dozens of people sitting in the small tea stall, and the waiter is carrying a big teapot to refill people's water.
"Shopkeeper, use good forage. If there are eggs, break them into three or five and stir them together."
Shen Bi flew off his horse and threw the reins to the waiting man.
Experts will know if there is one as soon as they make a move. With just a simple movement of dismounting, many people present cheered in their hearts.
A young man in white who was drinking tea was even more impressed. He slapped his palm with a folding fan and said, "What a handsome man!"
Shen Bi ignored all this, found an empty table, and ordered a pot of good wine and a plate of braised beef.
Everything is ready-made and arrived quickly.
He took a sip of braised beef and drank the wine carefully. Although this wine was far inferior to the insect wine he brewed, it still had a different taste.
At this time, the young man in white came over with a pot of tea.
"Young student Situ Ming, you have met this brother and you haven't asked for advice yet?"
Even though the young man in white in front of him lowered his voice, used an accent, and thought he was hiding it well, Shen Bi could still tell at a glance that this was a woman.
Not only Shen Bi, but probably most of the people here could see her disguise. Maybe she was the only one who thought the disguise was successful.
"Shen Bi."
"It turns out it's Brother Shen." Situ Ming put down the teapot and sat down directly: "Brother Shen is here for the treasure?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the originally bustling tea stall suddenly fell silent, and then everyone pretended to continue chatting as if nothing had happened.
Shen Bi didn't pay attention to everyone's reaction and asked curiously: "What kind of treasure is it? I have never heard of it before."
Picking up the teapot, Situ Ming poured two bowls of tea and pushed one of the bowls towards Shen Bi: "Try, my own tea, it tastes good."
Shen Bi picked up the tea bowl, took a sip and felt fresh and sweet, which lingered for a long time: "Good tea!"
Smiling proudly, Situ Ming continued:
"It seems that brother doesn't know about the treasure, and I don't know much about it. I originally wanted to ask you about it."
"It is said that it was a martial arts senior named Yuwen Ding who left a legacy after his death."
"There is a secret book hidden in the ruins. It is said that after practicing it, you will be invincible in the world!"
Shen Bi smiled after hearing this and joked: "Are you sure you didn't hear the truth?"
Situ Ming glared at Shen Bi and snatched the tea cup back from his hand. He felt that his actions were too girlish, so he coughed a few times to cover up: "Of course not, this is what my parents said themselves."
"If you don't believe me, brother, you can ask everyone present. Everyone is here for the treasure. Otherwise, how could such a small tea stall have so many people sitting down?"
Her unabashed talk immediately caused everyone present to cough, and some who were drinking tea even choked on their tea.
Shen Bi touched his chin and thought to himself: ‘Is there really any treasure?’
He is still very curious about treasures, after all, he has read so many novels, movies and TV series in his previous life.
He is not qualified and does not dare to go to the treasure legacy of the world of immortality. Now that he has the opportunity, he can go and see the treasure of Daliang.
The "Diamond Sutra" he obtained in this world before was of great help to him, and he also wanted to see if the martial arts secrets in this world would also have miraculous effects.
Especially after the life-and-death fight with the faceless man a month ago, he realized that he was seriously lacking in attack techniques. He only had the fifth level of Qi refining, but no corresponding attack methods.
Since witchcraft can optimize the 'blood refining' into the 'sacred consciousness refining', he also wants to try magic to change the internal power of this world.
"Do you know where the treasure is?"
"I don't know about that."
Shen Bi was a little disappointed when he heard Situ Ming continue: "But someone knows."
"There is Mingyang Mountain a hundred miles south of here. Recently, there are rumors in the world that Pei Wushuang, the owner of Mingyang Mountain, is the adopted son of senior Yuwen. This person must know where the legacy is."
"The Sanqing Alliance has summoned fellow martial artists to go to Mingyang Mountain tomorrow to pay homage to Lord Pei."
Hearing this, Shen Bi sneered: "Haha, what a greeting, this Sanqing Alliance is planning to gather a crowd to rob it!"
A small white hand immediately covered Shen Bi's mouth. Situ Ming looked around nervously and whispered:
"Why do you have no experience in the world of martial arts? Don't you know that trouble comes from your mouth? The Sanqing Alliance is not something that can be discussed unreasonably!"
Then Situ Ming remembered that something was wrong with his actions. He quickly blushed and took back his hand, wiped it with his clothes, and did not forget to give Shen Bi a kick.
Being taught a lesson by a rookie, Shen Bi didn't care and asked about his confusion:
"If that's the case, why didn't Yuwen Ding teach the technique directly to Pei Wushuang?"
"I only heard this much, I don't know the rest."
"Brother, if nothing happens, let's go to Mingyang Mountain together. We will know everything after we go there."
As soon as he finished speaking, Situ Ming suddenly felt dizzy and stared at Shen Bi in disbelief:
Chapter completed!
