Killing God

Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Seven

"Boom boom boom", a knock on the door came from the door, and Gu Lingyun glanced over there and said faintly: "Come in."

Someone at the door agreed. It was the Chen Li that Shen Shi had seen before. At this moment, he carried a medium-sized pocket in his hand, walked all the way to the desk, and put the bag on the table in front of Gu Lingyun. Gu Lingyun opened the mouth of the bag and glanced at it, nodding slightly, and said, "Okay, you can go down."

Chen Li nodded, then turned around and smiled at Shen Shi. Shen Shi also smiled. After watching him leave, he heard Gu Lingyun say behind him: "The spirit crystals and the talisman materials you want will be prepared for you. Okay, as for the price, I will directly deduct the number of spirit crystals on your account in our Fairy Club." She said that she glanced at Shen Shi and smiled, "Would you like to look at the accounts?"

Shen Shi shook his head and said with a smile: "No, Aunt Gu, you are a great person. How many thousands of spirit crystals pass through every day, and there may be a small fraction of me in "No".

Gu Lingyun smiled slightly and said nothing.

Shen Shi walked over and put the bag directly into the wishful bag, and said to Gu Lingyun: "Auntie Gu, if there is nothing else, I will leave now."

Gu Lingyun let out a "huh", but then he said something very casually, "By the way, do you know that there is a beast league in Floating Cloud City?"

The steps that Shen Shi was about to take were slightly stagnant, and his body stopped, but the expression on his face was as usual, and he said, "I don't know, what's wrong, Aunt Gu, what kind of school is this?"

Gu Lingyun looked at Shen Shi, stared silently for a moment, and then calmly said: "It is a local cultivation force here in Floating Cloud City, formed by the alliance of five small cultivation schools, namely Tiehumen, Shanxiongtang, and Chi Goumen, Firefox faction, and Leopard House, although they are incomparable with the great sects of Lingxiaozong, they are still one of the local snakes in Floating Cloud City."

Shen Shi gave an "Oh", looked at Gu Lingyun, and said, "That's it, but Aunt Gu, is there any reason why you mentioned this beast league to me?".

Gu Lingyun smiled and said, "Do you remember the last auction I called you over? That time you seemed to have a conflict with someone to save a woman, and finally left halfway. The one who quarreled with you? In fact, it is Jiang Heihu, the head of the Iron Humen, one of the five branches of the Beast League."

Shen Shi raised his brows, his thoughts rushed, but his face was still calm, his brows frowned slightly, and after a moment of indulgence, he said: "I wonder why Aunt Gu suddenly mentioned this Jiang Heihu to me. ?"

Gu Lingyun said: "A few days ago, this Jiang Heihu was found to have accidentally died in a certain alley in the city. At the same time, the two doormen he took were also killed. The Beast League was very angry about this. I went through a lot of investigations in the city and did a good job. I just wanted to ask you, have you seen this Jiang Heihu after that day?"

Shen Shi shook his head and said, "I have never seen this person."

Gu Lingyun nodded and said, "That's good, people like the Beast League are mostly vulgar villains. Although they are not afraid of them, they are too lazy to trouble. It is best if you have nothing to do with this matter."

Shen Shi laughed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Aunt Gu, this matter has nothing to do with me." After that, he clasped his fists and said, "Then I will leave first."

Gu Lingyun stood up, smiled and said, "Okay, be careful on the road."

Shen Shi turned and left, with a smile on his lips, even when he turned his back to Gu Lingyun, his expression remained the same. Until he walked out of this spacious study and took the door behind him easily, separating himself from the eyes of Gu Lingyun's beautiful woman, the smile on his face faded like a tide in an instant.

He stood at the door and thought silently for a while, his eyes blazing and he didn't know what was thinking in his mind. After a while, he walked again without saying a word and walked down the stairs all the way down.

Behind him, on the other side of the door, behind the desk in the study, Gu Lingyun also sat on the big chair with a calm face, quietly gazing at the door that Shen Shi had just left, as if lost in thought.

On Jinhong Mountain, in the valley.

The valley that had been quiet and deserted before Suri did not seem to be alive because of the two more figures on this day. Under the sound of towering trees and distant water, the two people who didn't say a word seemed to make this scene. The valley was quieter.

The atmosphere quickly cooled down. After Sun You was stunned, his face showed a bit of embarrassment. After hesitating for a while, he laughed and said: "Zhong Qinglu, don't think too much, I was on the mountain road before. At the fork in the road, I happened to see you walking this way, so I came here with kindness. I don't want you to call the upper half sky gate in vain."

Zhong Qinglu looked at Sun You quietly. For some reason, Sun You always felt that Zhong Qinglu today seemed a little different from the woman she knew in the past, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. He just felt like her. At this moment, his eyes seemed extraordinarily bright, as if there was a coolness that could see through the heart.

Sun You secretly regretted taking care of his nostalgia, and when he was about to leave without confession, he suddenly saw Zhong Qinglu two steps closer to him.

He raised his head to look at Zhong Qinglu, suddenly startled, but found that her face was somehow pale, and she was in doubt. He only heard Zhong Qinglu suddenly say: "Sun You, don't you have affection in your heart? ?"

After a daze, Sun You laughed, "Zhong Qinglu, what are you talking nonsense, I..."

"Yes." He was only half talking. Zhong Qinglu had interrupted him, her eyes bright as snow, staring at Sun You, although he looked calm, Sun You suddenly felt a little guilty, "I also know you don't have this mindset. In fact, the relationship between the two of us has always been neither lukewarm nor lukewarm, but just a few words of friendship when we met and nodded, right?"

Sun You thought for a while, then shrugged and said, "It's okay for you to say that."

Zhong Qinglu's eyes drooped slightly, and she didn't know what she was thinking at the moment, but only listened to her indifferently: "Since this is the case, you and I have a normal friendship, and I rarely have contact on weekdays. I am surprised. Why did you see me coming? Shen Shi came here, and he kindly informed me that Shen Shi was not there, lest I wait for nothing?"

Sun You's face changed slightly, his smile gradually faded, and he frowned and said, "I'll be nosy, okay? Okay, I'm leaving now."

When he said that, he turned around and prepared to walk to the mountain road. However, there was a flower in front of him, but Zhong Qinglu walked to the road and blocked the way. Sun You took a deep breath and said, "Zhong Qinglu, what are you doing?"

Zhong Qinglu stood on the mountain road with a cold expression, looked at him coldly, and suddenly said after a moment: "You have a little vacancy."

Sun Youha laughed and said nonchalantly: "What guilty conscience, why am I guilty?"

Zhong Qinglu didn't smile, she still stood there looking at him, but the gaze in her eyes became brighter, and even faintly made Sun You a little reluctant to look directly at him. She thought it was a hell. She was in the same school for so many years. I've never seen this woman so smart before, is it that she is particularly sensitive today...

Zhong Qinglu was silent for a moment, and said: "I don't know, but I have this feeling. You and I are on the same level, and you never owe me anything, but today's behavior is different from the past. Why did you suddenly care about my whereabouts and came to tell I'm not in Shenshi? Maybe it's because..." She slowly raised her head, her mouth twitched slightly, softly and as if talking to herself.

"Perhaps, something happened that I didn't know, and maybe that thing made you feel...not so good to me? Do you think... pity me?"

Sun You's eyes condensed, and his face really changed for the first time, but then he smiled and said, "I think you have a problem with alchemy. No matter what you are, I am going to leave."

Speaking of stepping forward, he walked past Zhong Qinglu. Zhong Qinglu did not stop him this time, but when Sun You passed by, he suddenly whispered: "That...is it related to Shen Shi? So you Want to come and tell me when you see me here?"

Sun You's body shook slightly, but he didn't mean to answer. He still walked forward. Zhong Qinglu turned to look at his back, and suddenly raised her voice, saying, "If the matter is related to me, why don't you follow I say?"

Sun You walked out a few steps, and suddenly stopped. After a while, he turned around and looked at Zhong Qinglu. Seeing that the woman's face seemed to be a little angry and mixed with a trace of worry, he sighed. He took a sigh of relief, but his face became cold. After looking at Zhong Qinglu, he said lightly:

"Are you still the same as you were when you were a kid? I always feel that it's all other people's fault, and are all others sorry you?"

Zhong Qinglu frowned her eyebrows, her face became a little cold, and said: "What do you mean?"

Sun You sneered, and said, "Have you ever thought about it, maybe you did something wrong first?"

After that, he stopped talking, turned and left without turning around to say another word.

On the empty and secluded mountain road, Zhong Qinglu showed a trace of astonishment on her face. Standing in place, after a while, she slowly turned around, looking across this ancient wooded valley, and finally landed on the secluded and deserted stone gate of the cave. on.

"Exactly, what happened..."

She whispered faintly, with a trace of blankness and loneliness in her expression.

※※※

Sun You left the valley and walked quickly back to the mountain road. It wasn't until the observing sea platform was faintly looking at him that he seemed to be relieved, his expression relaxed, and he stood where he was thinking for a moment, but suddenly he smiled bitterly. After a moment, he shook his head and said to himself:

"It's really asking for trouble for you to be nosy..."

A little bit self-deprecating in his smile, Sun You stood there again thinking for a while, and then stepped forward again, but turned to another mountain turnout on the mountain road more than ten feet away from Guanhaitai. There seems to be a winding mountain road deep in the shade of the trees, and some stone gates of the cave are looming.

Sun You walked along the mountain road, and walked about a hundred meters away until he came to the stone gate of a cave house hidden under an ancient vine. Sun You stopped in front of the gate of the cave. After taking a deep breath, he stepped forward and knocked on the stone gate.

After a while, a rumbling sound came out, and Shimen slowly retreated to the side. A burly and tall man appeared at the door. He looked at You Sun. First, he was taken aback, with a bit of surprise, and said: "Sun Junior brother?"

Sun You had already hidden his previous emotions in his heart at this moment, and his face showed a cheerful smile again. He walked over with a haha ​​smile, clasped his fists and saluteed, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, long time no see."

The man at the entrance was a burly figure and Shen Xiong was determined, but he was indeed Wang Gen, who came under the seat of Elder Sun Mingyang and is now listed in the "Three Swords of the Sky".
