In one of the pavilions in the Yun family courtyard, Shen Xiu was sitting on one of the stone benches drinking tea.
Since I agreed to be a worshiper of the Yun family, even though it was in name only, I naturally had to recognize the family.
So after Yun Chengzhi left, Shen Xiu also followed him to the Yun family. Now in this pavilion, he is waiting for the offering token made by the Yun family.
After drinking tea for a while, Chen Xiu, who was bored, finally heard the sound of footsteps.
I saw a Yun family servant coming from outside the courtyard, holding an exquisite token in his hand, and respectfully placed it on the stone table in front of Shen Xiu.
Chen Xiu nodded, picked it up and took a look, only to see that the Yun family was engraved on the front of the sign, and the words "Five Sacrifice" were written on the back.
It seems that he is not the only one enshrined in the Yun Family Mansion. This token is already the fifth one, and it is not certain whether it is the last one.
After taking a look, Shen Xiu put the token in his arms, walked down the courtyard pavilion, and walked towards the road he came from.
Halfway through the walk, I passed by a garden.
However, he saw an old man over fifty years old walking out of the corner of a courtyard. When he saw Shen Xiu's figure, he shouted with a smile on his face.
"May I ask, are you the new worshipper Shen Xiu?" The old man stepped forward and asked with a smile on his face.
Shen Xiu looked stunned. He didn't know the identity of this old man in this mansion, so he nodded and said, "It's me."
However, when Shen Xiu nodded, the smile on the old man's face faded in the blink of an eye, replaced by a cold and cold face.
"Do you know who I am? I am the second minister of the Yun family. We have worked together for three or four years now. If you listen to my advice, you still quit this job early. You can't control it, kid!"
There was a faint hint of threat in the tone of the second worshipper Tong Tongguang.
Originally, he had already recommended his distant nephew to the top for the position of Five Enshrinements, and that nephew had also expressed his opinion.
If after applying for the job, he would be given 10% of his monthly salary as a filial piety, little would he know that the Young Master of the Yun family would also look at him with a nod, but a Chen Xiu would appear halfway through.
His nephew's errand was suddenly ruined, and he lost a lot of money. This made him angry.
Looking at the old man's tone and expression, Shen Xiu only had a slight aftertaste, but he couldn't figure out the secret behind it.
He couldn't think of that much. He just thought of the five enshrined positions. I'm afraid the old man had other ideas.
His appointment may have directly blocked his path.
Yun Chengzhi previously explained the general situation of the Yun family, including three permanent worshipers and one nominal worshipper.
Except for the nominal worshiper who is also a martial arts cultivator who has returned to the Four Realms, the other three permanent worshipers are also martial arts cultivators who have purified their marrow from the Five Realms.
I guess this position was provided by Yun Chengzhi. Fortunately, with the other person's level of cultivation, Shen Xiu had nothing to fear. He pointed firmly at the old man and said word by word: "Don't worry, old man, I can handle it!"
After saying that, Shen Xiu turned around and left, leaving only the second worshipper Tongguang behind, with an uncertain expression on his face, white and red.
He never expected that the men who came before him and were worth five sacrifices would all choose to leave or give up under his threats, either short or long. He had never encountered anyone who had spoken positively to him like this.
After receiving the errand from the Yun family, Chen Xiu continued back to the other courtyard.
Life is on the right track as always. Jin Muer's blame was taken by the Blood Sea Sect. Now he has a little less worry. He kills demons in Xiaoyao Mountain, practices martial arts and draws talismans in the courtyard, and Chen Xiu's wallet is getting bigger little by little. Get up.
On the way, something happened to the Yun family's shop, but Shen Xiu easily solved it.
Half a month passed like this.
One night, there was a willow tree above the moon.
In the house in the other courtyard, Shen Xiu sat cross-legged on the wooden platform in the house, his eyes slightly closed, and the dragon-subduing aura in his body was flowing between his meridians and organs.
Every time he breathed in and out, the breath in his body was slightly stronger. These breaths flowed through the organs and strengthened the body's functions.
With a trembling of breath, the spleen, one of the five internal organs, has been tempered for more than a month, and a light film of air has been attached.
Chen Xiu in the room opened his eyes. According to the current progress, it probably won't be long before he can finish tempering the remaining two major organs.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, and a bright moon hangs high.
At this time, a black figure suddenly appeared outside the back wall of the small courtyard.
The black figure was strong and vigorous behind him. With just a slight jump, he silently climbed over the wall and came to the courtyard.
The visitor looked at the room where Shen Xiu lived, where the lights were still turned off. There was a gleam of coldness in his eyes, and he immediately lurked over quietly.
He walked through the small courtyard and came to the main house. Just when his palm touched the wooden door, he was about to quietly open it and sneak in.
The door suddenly opened with a click.
A burst of white powder suddenly hit my face.
The man in black was stunned.
The unexpected man in black only had time to wave his sleeves to push away the dust. However, he was caught off guard and a large amount of powder still entered his eyes.
The burning pain came, making him unable to open his eyes.
But what's even more terrible is that what follows is a strong, turbulent and howling wind.
The strong aura made his heart skip a beat, but he still felt it and struck out with a knife.
However, what he never expected was that the other party didn't seem to shy away from it. His knife struck a hard object and made a sound of gold and iron.
Immediately afterwards, a majestic force that was unbearable and terrifying to the extreme came as the fist attacked like a stormy wave.
Is this the Four Realms martial arts that Tong Tongguang mentioned?
So much better than him, a martial arts cultivator in the Fourth Realm?
His expression suddenly changed, becoming horrified, and the next moment he heard a click in his chest, a sharp pain that penetrated his bone marrow, and his figure flew out and crashed into the courtyard.
He sat up with difficulty. The successive blows and the severe pain in his chest made the man in black's eyes turn green.
At this time, he was finally able to forcefully open his eyes, but because of the lime, his eyes looked like red-eyed rabbits.
Red and green.
But at this moment, he looked at the main room in front of the courtyard, and found that the target of his attack was expressionless at the moment, standing not far away looking at him as if nothing had happened.
The figure flashed, and a knife was on his neck in the blink of an eye.
"Tell me, who sent you here!"
Looking at this guy with terrifying cultivation, the man in black's heart was beating wildly, and at the same time he was yelling curses in his heart.
The Yun family worshiper said that this guy is only a fourth-level martial artist. Looking at this situation and his momentum, how can it be compared to ordinary fourth-level martial arts cultivators?
He, a real martial arts cultivator in the four realms, had never gotten the slightest advantage, yet he turned into this with just one punch.
If he had known this, he would not have accepted the job even if it was two thousand taels or three thousand taels. Looking at the expressionless Shen Xiu, the man in black felt extremely regretful.
