The West Courtyard of the Shen Family has restored its former peace and tranquility.
After the Chinese New Year, the East Courtyard gradually became lively, some workers went to work one after another, and more and more merchants purchased goods.
During this period, Zhou Sen rarely went out to help. During the day, he stayed in his room to practice. At night, he and Shen Huimin went to Moling to dig snow caves and look for corpses.
Fortunately, Zhou Sen is an idler in the East Courtyard. Apart from cleaning the Zhao corridor, feeding Zhao and other tasks, he is not responsible for other specific tasks, and no one notices him. As for Deaf Jia, they don't care about Zhou Sen at all. Every day
You can do your own work and don't need Zhou Sen's help.
It is not an easy task to dig out the body from the tens of millions of tons of snow. Although Zhou Sen learned many calculation methods from Gauss, they were all dead calculation methods, and at that time
The environment that causes avalanches is extremely complex. In addition to lightning, steep rocks and trees, and the direction of the slope can cause countless changes in the direction of the avalanche.
This is an extremely complex and huge calculation process, and even the slightest error can lead to a huge difference.
If you dig in the wrong direction, let alone ten and a half days, you won't be able to dig out the body, even if you dig until spring comes and the flowers bloom.
Now, Zhou Sen has to hurry up and dig. He can't wait until the spring comes. By then, there will be more hunters active in Moling, and it is easy to attract others' attention. If the body is discovered, things will be in trouble. After all,
, the death of a person is a big deal and must be reported to the government. In addition, the snow caused by this avalanche is tens of meters thick. In the spring, the snow may not melt. It is impossible to wait until then to find the body.
.
Even if the snow can melt, he cannot wait in Moling every day. If one day the body is exposed in broad daylight and happens to be seen by the disciples of Jiupan Mountain, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Zhou Sen didn't dare to be lazy. He didn't have the capital to be lazy. On this strange planet, he had nothing to rely on. If he made the slightest mistake, he would fall into eternal disaster.
During the excavation process, Zhou Sen often had to make repeated calculations and constantly correct the direction according to the excavated terrain. At the same time, when encountering weak spots, he had to build supports to prevent the excavated snow cave from collapsing.
At first, Shen Huimin helped Zhou Sen dig a snow cave. However, Shen Huimin had been pampered since she was a child. After two days of working, her hands were covered with blisters, so she gave up. Of course, Shen Huimin was not idle either, digging in Zhou Sen.
When she was in the snow cave, she kept going in and out. Every time she returned to the cave, she would bring some strange utensils.
Wan Ling wanted to transform the cave into an "alchemy room" and was tinkering with the gadgets he brought with him every moment.
On the seventeenth day, Shen Huimin's alchemy room was completed, and she also gave it a name.
Shen Huimin also argued with Zhou Sen for this name, and in the end, Zhou Sen failed.
Shen Huimin was so proud that she used the Ice Soul Divine Sword to carve two large, crooked characters "Alchemy Room" on the rock wall at the entrance of the cave.
In just ten days, the alchemy room was already in full swing, with all the equipment for alchemy inside.
Shen Huimin began to launch her vigorous alchemy plan.
Every day, Shen Huimin would release pills of various sizes and colors. Shen Huimin would often trick Zhou Sen into taking a few pills. However, Zhou Sen was determined not to be fooled and had very strong willpower. Unless Shen Huimin accompanied him to eat them, no matter how hard it was, he would take them.
There is no temptation, Zhou Sen will never take those weird pills.
However, something still surprised Zhou Sen. Shen Huimin really made countless paper dragonflies fly. At most, she made more than two hundred paper dragonflies dance in the air.
You can imagine how spectacular and beautiful it is to see more than two hundred pink paper dragonflies flying up and down in the fire-lit cave.
Shen Huimin patted her plump breasts and boasted to Zhou Sen boldly that as long as she wanted to, she could make tens of thousands of paper dragonflies fly in the air. She also said that if one day she ran out of money, she would go to the streets to perform, and beauties plus dragonflies would be guaranteed.
Rich wealth, huge profits...
Of course, Zhou Sen still expressed doubts about the aggressiveness of these paper dragonflies. These days, Zhou Sen, as a weapon refiner, also paid attention to some of Shen Huimin's alchemy techniques, but he found that, in addition to being complicated, it was completely different from the weapon refinement.
Since there were two different things, he gave up and just assisted Shen Huimin in refining elixirs.
Shen Huimin also encountered a lot of troubles in her alchemy. The most thrilling one was when Zhou Sen was digging a snow cave. When he heard a muffled sound behind him, the whole cave trembled. The dug snow cave also shook, and countless drops fell from the snow cave.
Zhou Sen was so frightened by the snow that he fled back to the cave. However, he saw that Shen Huimin's face was as smoked as black coal, with only two eyeballs left rolling around, and her hair was burnt a lot.
There is an unpleasant burning smell...
After that incident, Zhou Sen strictly prohibited Shen Huimin from refining pills containing potent ingredients.
Time passed, and Zhou Sen spent every night in the cave. The excavated snow filled up the side of the cave that was knocked open.
This situation lasted for thirty-eight days.
On the thirty-ninth day, Zhou Sen went down with his shovel and encountered something dark, which was the body of the unlucky Brother Xiao Qi.
Brother Xiao Qi's body was curled up into a ball, with his hands tightly covering his chest. The small black gold dagger almost penetrated his chest, the tip of the sword peeked out a little from his chest, and there was fear in a pair of eyes that were fixed in death.
color.
Zhou Sen found a low-lying, hidden place in the cave to bury the body, and then made a series of disguises.
No one could find Brother Xiao Qi's body.
No one knows what Brother Qi was thinking at the moment of his death.
Although Brother Xiaoqi is young, he is a disciple of the Dragon Generation of the Jiupan Sect, and is one of the four disciples of the sect leader Wen Changsheng. It can be said that he has a bright future.
Compared with Pang Bing, Brother Xiaoqi is much less talented and has only entered the first level of junior level. However, Brother Xiaoqi is much older and has passed his thirties. He has been honing his skills in the world for a long time, both in terms of life experience and combat experience.
They are far beyond comparison with Pang Bing. Perhaps, he never dreamed that one day he would die in the hands of an ordinary person and be buried among the rocks in this wilderness without even a tombstone...
…
Now, Zhou Sen encountered a problem.
How to plug up the cave wall that was knocked open by the avalanche?
It is foreseeable that in the hot summer, after the snow melts, the opened hole will be exposed to the broad daylight.
The exposure of the cave entrance had no impact on Zhou Sen. The location where he buried Brother Qi's body was extremely hidden. Finding a small body in a huge cave would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, Zhou Sen still
I don’t want the cave to be exposed. After all, there are too many secrets in this cave. Not only is the body of Brother Xiaoqi, but also the remains of senior cultivator Shuimu and the grave of Moling Snow Leopard.
There is no doubt that this is a huge project.
Zhou Sen does not have the ability to block the huge gap in the cave wall. With his own efforts, it will take at least several years to block it.
However, Shen Huimin does.
When Shen Huimin learned about Zhou Sen's anxiety, she looked disapproving and took out a yellow alchemy talisman from her body, saying that one stick of incense was enough.
Zhou Sen gave Shen Huimin a moment to burn incense. He waited for Shen Huimin at the entrance of the cave and observed Shen Huimin's alchemy room.
After less than a stick of incense, Shen Huimin came out with a proud look on her face.
"How is it?" Zhou Sen didn't believe that Shen Huimin could complete such a huge project so quickly.
"It'll be ready soon!"
boom!
Boom boom boom!
Rumble…
As soon as Shen Huimin finished speaking, there was a rumbling sound from the cave, and then the cave shook, as if the mountain was falling and the ground was cracking.
Huge rocks fell from the top of the cave from time to time. The two were so frightened that they ran away with their heads in their hands, pulling each other and running towards the entrance of the cave.
The earth trembled and the mountains shook.
The two of them escaped to the entrance of the cave. A strong wind surged out of the cave, and dust flew up, as if a hurricane was sweeping through them. It was extremely frightening.
The two were so frightened that they hugged each other and huddled in a depression under the rock, motionless, for fear of being smashed into pieces by the rocks falling from above.
Finally, the trembling earth stopped shaking, and the flying dust gradually subsided.
"What did you do?" Zhou Sen asked Shen Huimin, who was so frightened that her whole body was like chaff.
"Hug... I'm sorry... I miscalculated... I was wrong... the amount of elixir on the elixir book and talisman was too much..." Shen Huimin, who was in shock, turned pale and stammered.
"You almost buried us alive in it."
Zhou Sen had a wry smile on his face. He could never have imagined in his dreams that Shen Huimin, who was messing around, would actually use an alchemy talisman to make such a big noise. You know, the distance between the place where the cave wall was knocked open and the entrance of the cave was hundreds of meters away.
From a distance, we can see how powerful the power produced by Shen Huimin is.
"Are we not dead now?" Shen Huimin recovered from her fear and pinched Zhou Sen's face.
"Why are you pinching me?"
"Does it hurt?"
"Pinch yourself and you'll know if it hurts." Zhou Sen, who was still in shock, pinched Shen Huimin's chubby face angrily.
"Oops..." Shen Huimin let out a scream, and immediately broke away from Zhou Sen, dancing and jumping happily.
"Oops, I buried a lot of energy stones not far from the entrance of the cave. Don't get buried..."
Zhou Sen rushed into the cave like a whirlwind. The cave was pitch black, and the pair of burning fires had been blown away by the fierce wind. Fortunately, Zhou Sen's baggage never left his body and was tied with a rope.
Even when I was running for my life in panic, the baggage was still hanging on my waist.
Light the candle.
The light of the candle pierces the darkness.
To Zhou Sen's relief, the cave did not collapse even dozens of meters into the cave. Even the house where the superpower Shuimu lived was not affected. However, countless rocks fell from the roof of the cave, and the decaying wooden house was destroyed by the rocks.
The block was smashed to pieces.
Fortunately, the piece of turquoise was not damaged. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to find another huge stone to block the entrance to the Moling Snow Leopard Cemetery.
The two of them walked inside the cave. Starting from the wooden house, they found no way out not far away. This was because the cave, which had existed for countless years, had completely collapsed. Countless huge stones were stacked on top of each other and crowded.
, filling every inch of space.
"How did you get here?" Looking at the rocks blocking the cave, Shen Huimin gasped.
"How far did you plan to blow it up?" Zhou Sen couldn't help but ask.
"That...ahem...that's the place..." Shen Huimin's face turned red and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Zhou Sen. Her voice was like the buzzing of a mosquito.
"You mean you were planning to blow up the wall of the cave that was knocked open?" Zhou Sen looked at Shen Huimin with wide eyes.
"Hey..."
"Sister, your error is too big. This place is hundreds of meters away from that place. You know, this is going to kill people!"
Zhou Sen looked furious. He had an unbearable urge and wanted to catch Shen Huimin and beat her up.
Thinking about it now, Zhou Sen was afraid for a while. When Shen Huimin went to do things, he was nearby. Suddenly he wanted to see what weird things Shen Huimin's "alchemy room" had come up with, so he went outside. If he had
If they don't come out, Shen Huimin will definitely not come out. The collapse of the cave only happened in an instant. They had no time to escape. At this moment, they were buried alive in the rocks...
"I wasn't careful..." Shen Huimin felt that Zhou Sen was angry, but she didn't dare to talk back. She scratched the dust with her toes nervously, with a pitiful look on her face.
"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you blow it up, you don't have to worry about the body being discovered anymore. When I have time, I will teach you how to do it, so that you don't have to blow it up again." Seeing Shen Huimin's pitiful look, she couldn't bear it.
He blamed and sighed.
"Teach me what?"
"Teach you some practical skills. Everything in this world can be traced, including the power of energy stones, the power of elixirs and the power of superpowers. If we can't find it, it only means that we still can't find it.
It’s just that I haven’t found a method, it’s not unfathomable, do you understand?”
"not understand."
"...Uh... I just want to tell you that before you blow up something next time, you can experiment a few more times to find the laws of power. When it comes time to use it, you will know what it is and you can control it as you like."
"If I had said this earlier, wouldn't I have understood? Why is it so complicated? Why is it so traceable and unfathomable? Bah!" Shen Huimin spat at Zhou Sen.
"..."
"Where is my black gold dagger? Is it buried?" Shen Huimin suddenly asked.
"What is your black gold dagger? It's my black gold dagger, okay!" Zhou Sen frowned.
"Hey, hey, let me just tell you, why are you so nervous?" Shen Huimin rolled her eyes at Zhou Sen.
"That's good."
Zhou Sen took out the black gold dagger from his waist.
This is the first time he has carefully observed the black gold dagger.
At just the first glance, Zhou Sen was able to determine that this was a good sword, because its workmanship was extremely exquisite. The scabbard was made of black sandalwood and was inlaid with some delicate metal patterns. At first glance, it was obvious that some thought had been put into it.
Pulling out the black gold dagger, the cold air is overwhelming.
The metal of the Wujin dagger is completely different from that of the Ice Soul Divine Sword. It is pure black, even the blade has no luster at all. However, precisely because of this unique color, you can tell at a glance that it is not ordinary.
The hilt of the sword is entirely made of metal, and its shape design is very suitable for the palm of the hand. It feels better than the Ice Soul Divine Sword. The texture is delicate but not slippery, and the workmanship is not at the same level.
The only thing that dissatisfied Zhou Sen was that the black gold dagger was too light.
Zhou Sen used to use iron rods weighing tens of kilograms as weapons, but now he still holds an iron ax weighing more than ten kilograms to chop wood every day. Suddenly he held a small sword, not much bigger than a dagger, and immediately felt light and airy.
"Are you dissatisfied?" Shen Huimin asked, seeing Zhou Sen frowning and showing no sign of joy.
"Too small and too light." Zhou Sen shook his head.
"Brother, this is a dagger! Do you understand the dagger?!" Shen Huimin looked depressed. She had deep feelings for the Wujin Dagger. She could not tolerate others saying bad things about the Wujin Dagger, even if it was contempt.
"I like heavy weapons."
Zhou Sen gently waved the small sword in his hand, a little disappointed.
In fact, when he first discovered the Ice Soul Divine Sword, Zhou Sen knew that the Ice Soul Divine Sword was a rare magical weapon, but he still gave it up and replaced it with a printed book that everyone in the world of cultivators had. The main reason was that he disliked Ice Soul.
The Soul Sword is so light that it feels like nothing in your hand.
"Then give it back to me." Shen Huimin was overjoyed and spread her palms.
"Why should I give it back to you? This is my sword." Zhou Sen inserted the sword into the scabbard with a nonchalant expression.
"..."
Shen Huimin was so angry that she couldn't speak. Her face turned red from holding back, and she stamped her feet fiercely, but there was nothing she could do.
"Let's go, it's almost dawn."
"Just leave!" Shen Huimin snorted coldly.
"Aren't you going to take these rags with you?" Zhou Sen glanced at Shen Huimin's bottles and utensils.
"If you don't take it away, I will come again."
"Well, just pay attention to yourself."
"Are you not coming anymore?" Shen Huimin asked suddenly.
"What am I here to do? Get bombed?"
"..."
Shen Huimin stamped her feet again, pouted, took out the Ice Soul Divine Sword and put it under her feet. After Zhou Sen stepped on the Ice Soul Divine Sword, he immediately jumped into the air, frightening Zhou Sen into a cold sweat and hugging him tightly.
Shen Huimin's slender waist.
"Why are you hugging me so tightly? What do you want to do? Eat tofu!" Shen Huimin scolded.
"Auntie, how have I offended you?" Zhou Sen was in the air and did not dare to speak harshly, so he could only apologize.
"snort."
Shen Huimin didn't say anything, and suddenly accelerated, flying higher and higher all the way.
This flight actually flew beyond the boundary of Niejiaqiao.
In the sea of clouds, Zhou Sen couldn't tell the direction. He just felt that the occasionally exposed peaks under the sea of clouds were getting steeper and more steep, as if they were thrust into the sky like a sharp sword.
At this time, the sky has brightened, and the white fish belly is exposed in the east.
In Niejiaqiao, there has been no sunshine for several days, but in the sky, you can see the red clouds surging in the far east.
Zhou Sen saw the most majestic and magnificent sunrise scene ever...
Suddenly, a thin parabola emerged from the dark blue clouds. This line was translucent red and shining with golden light. It splashed up like a boiling solution, and then rushed upward like a rocket.
Zhou Sen suddenly realized that this was the moment when the bright day burst out from the night sky. Then several redder and brighter small pieces flashed out from the gaps between several blue clouds. Several small pieces broke through the clouds, connected closely, and dissolved.
Put them together and leap out, it turns out that the sun has come out. It is bright and dazzling, as bright red as fire, as strong as fire. Unknowingly, all the darkness is immediately illuminated by it.
In the blink of an eye, the layers of clouds stretching for countless miles turned red.
Just when Zhou Sen was intoxicated by the spectacular and magnificent sunrise, his body suddenly sank, but Shen Huimin pressed the flying sword and fell below the clouds.
The two dropped the flying sword at the foot of a mountain.
"What are we doing here?"
Zhou Sen has an instinctive rejection of unfamiliar places. For him, any unfamiliar place is potentially dangerous. Calculating the time and speed of the flight just now, it is only a thousand miles away from Niejiaqiao.
remote.
What makes Zhou Sen feel most uncomfortable is that the peaks here are actually extremely green. Except for the occasional ravines and white snow, they are completely different from the snow-covered scene in Moling. Moreover, the temperature here is much higher, even in the early morning.
, and I don’t feel cold either.
"Go up the mountain." Shen Huimin's flowing eyes rolled her eyes at Zhou Sen, as if she was still sulking.
"Why don't you fly up?" Zhou Sen looked confused.
"This is Shenlong Mountain."
"Shenlong Mountain can't fly?"
"Brother, there is Cixinzhai and Master Dingxu here. In order to show respect for Master Dingxu, people in the world of cultivators visit Shenlong Mountain on foot. Although there is no mandatory rule, among some superpowers, they have already
The agreement has become a custom."
"Oh...I understand."
Zhou Sen suddenly realized that he followed Shen Huimin obediently without making a sound, so as not to make Shen Huimin angry and leave her in the deep mountains and forests.
Zhou Sen does not have the ability to fly with a sword now. After going out, he can only be controlled by Shen Huimin. Recently, Shen Huimin has been refining alchemy, has an irritable personality, is moody, and often has unknown anger. This has made Zhou Sen suffer from bullying. Secretly, Zhou Sen is under the control of Shen Huimin.
Henjin, you must have the super power to control the black gold dagger and fly with the sword as soon as possible to avoid being upset.
The two of them walked into the forest one after the other.
I walked through a small stream, and everything was green. Even Shen Huimin's white clothes were reflected in a light green. The water was gurgling, accompanied by the chirping of birds. As I walked, I suddenly felt a coolness, and then I noticed a slight
The wind blows by, and the fragrance that hits you can't help but stop and savor it. In the crystal clear and spotless blue water, fish swim happily, and red, green, and white pebbles shine in the water.
The sun shines through the gaps in the trees and casts mottled shadows on the water, giving people a peaceful and beautiful enjoyment of nature.
In this charming scenery, a silent affection rippled in the hearts of the two of them.
Shen Huimin walked slower and slower, her head slightly lowered.
Zhou Sen caught up with Shen Huimin and walked side by side on the narrow and slippery stone steps.
"oops……"
"careful."
Shen Huimin stepped on the moss and slipped. Zhou Sen hurriedly helped her and hugged Shen Huimin's slender and soft waist.
"Thank you." Shen Huimin blushed and said softly.
"No need." Seeing Shen Huimin's shy look, Zhou Sen's heart froze and he quickly let go of Shen Huimin's slender waist.
"Huh." Shen Huimin suddenly changed her face again and snorted coldly.
"...Huimin, let me lead you away..."
Zhou Sen, who was belatedly aware of the situation, finally understood this time and quickly took hold of Shen Huimin's catkins.
"I need you to hold me, hum!"
Shen Huimin pouted and didn't look at Zhou Sen, but she didn't let go of Zhou Sen's hand, instead she held it tightly.
Holding the white and soft jade hand, Zhou Sen's heart was beating for a while. From the corner of his eye, he saw Shen Huimin's face reflected in the morning glow, which was fiery red. Even her ears and neck were red. Zhou Sen couldn't tell whether it was the glow of the morning glow.
The reflection is still Shen Huimin's own bright red color.
