Chapter 44
The two talked for a long time and went out with smiles on their faces, as if what happened before had never happened.
But behind the smiles, everyone has different thoughts.
Zhou Shu said as he walked, "Shopkeeper Hua, we need to hurry up on Fu Mo's matter, preferably within four months."
Hua Ruo'an smiled and nodded, "It's almost the season for hunting monsters. The materials should be good. As long as Brother Zhou doesn't disappoint me."
"Farewell."
Zhou Shu cupped his hands and quickly walked out of Sanyuan Zhai.
Hua Ruo'an looked at Zhou Shu's back, touched the wrinkles on his forehead, and his eyes flickered. This kid was more troublesome than before. Even if there was no expert behind him, it would be difficult to deal with him. From now on, it is better to be gentle.
After walking out of Sanyuanzhai, Zhou Shu walked skillfully through several alleys, used the formation talisman to pass through a maze, and entered the Yan's shop through the back door.
After greeting the servants, Zhou Shu went straight into the secret room, which was heavily guarded and was the most important part of the Yan's shop. Only he and Yan Yue could enter.
"Junior brother, you are here!"
Yan Yue, who was sorting things, saw Zhou Shu enter the door and immediately greeted him with a look of joy.
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "What's wrong, so happy?"
Yan Yue nodded repeatedly, "I was waiting for you to come, and here you are."
"Is the spa charm gone?" Zhou Shuming asked knowingly.
"You know, why don't you ask," Yan Yue said with a hint of anger, thinking for a while, "every day as soon as we open the door, the spa magic charms are sold out, and customers who haven't bought them have to embarrass the staff every day, making business difficult. I'm thinking, is it?
Shouldn't we do some other business, otherwise so many customers would be a waste."
Zhou Shu agreed, "Senior sister is right, this is what you should do. If you have a lot of spiritual stones, just buy some other talismans or simple elixirs."
"I'll do it in a minute."
Yan Yue nodded slightly, and then looked at Zhou Shu with expectant eyes, her lips slightly parted.
Zhou Shu smiled, took out a thick stack of talismans from the storage bag, and placed them in front of Yan Yue, "Don't look at it, senior sister is indispensable. There are more than 250 talismans this time. Senior sister's daily limit is also
It can be improved a bit.”
"Ah, so many?"
Yan Yue exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly took the talisman and counted them one by one.
After a while, her face suddenly became a little solemn, "Junior brother, this is not good, it is too hard, and your face doesn't look good."
"Now is a good time. It's normal to work hard." Zhou Shu shook his head and didn't care much.
"I know, but drawing talismans is a very complicated and boring thing, and it consumes a lot of money. Besides, drawing the same talismans all the time, won't it be annoying and tiring?" Yan Yue looked at Zhou Shu, a little puzzled.
Zhou Shuxin replied, "It's okay. Qi refining realm cultivators like us can only practice for two hours a day, so we have a lot of free time. Doing more things is better than boring fun."
"A lot of cultivators like you only know how to have fun."
Yan Yue followed Zhou Shu's answer and suddenly asked, "Junior brother, how long does it take for you to draw a talisman?"
Zhou Shu said without thinking, "If you don't have a lot of time, it only takes fifty breaths to draw a hydrotherapy charm. However, it consumes a lot of spiritual energy and needs a period of time to recover. I can draw four in an hour. No -"
As soon as the words came out, his expression immediately changed, "Senior sister, it turns out that you have been tricking me since the moment I walked in."
He and Yan Yue are now closely related. They have experienced life and death, and they also trust each other. He is not as wary as he is with Hua Ruo'an, and he does not deliberately hide it in his words.
Unexpectedly, he was fooled by Yan Yue.
After a secret fight with Hua Ruoan, I thought I could relax more with Yan Yue, but it turned out that Yan Yue was the same?
Zhou Shu's face suddenly darkened, "Why?"
Yan Yue didn't notice Zhou Shu's change, and said excitedly, "It turns out these talismans were really drawn by junior brother! In fact, I just thought this when we finished the task together. How could junior brother at such an age do such a thing?"
What an incredible thing, but I really can’t believe it in my heart, it turned out to be true!”
Zhou Shu frowned and emphasized his tone, "Senior sister, why, why did you do this?"
"sorry……"
Looking at Zhou Shu, her face became more solemn, and she said with full apology, "Junior brother, I'm really sorry. This problem has been bothering me for a long time... I wonder every day which Talisman Master helped me.
Our Yan family, why did he do this, what does he want our Yan family to do for him... If I don't understand this, even if I see the Yan family getting better, I will still feel uneasy, for fear that the talisman master will come one day
The Yan family was asked to do something impossible, and I couldn't object. Then the Yan family suddenly collapsed and never got up again... I couldn't sleep with anyone every day... Now that it's confirmed that it's my junior brother, I feel relieved.
Yes, thank you."
She was very excited, and her speech became intermittent, with a few cries in between.
Having experienced decline, she finally sees hope, but is extremely afraid that her hope will be shattered again. As strong as she is, for the sake of the Yan family, her heart is too fragile to be vulnerable.
Zhou Shu could clearly feel this emotion and somewhat understand it.
Listening to her words, Zhou Shu's stern expression gradually relaxed.
He sighed, looked at Yan Yue and said solemnly, "Now that Senior Sister has guessed it, I won't hide it from you anymore. But please never let anyone else know about this matter. Senior Sister, do you understand?"
The matter of him drawing the talisman cannot be revealed now.
If someone like Hua Ruo'an knew that no one was behind Zhou Shu, but that he drew the talisman himself, he would probably detain Zhou Shu by any means necessary and force Zhou Shu to draw the talisman for them.
Before you find a suitable sect to take refuge in, and before you have enough strength, this matter must be a secret, and it can only be a secret.
"I see."
Looking at Zhou Shu, Yan Yue said solemnly, "I, Yan Yue, swear with all my heart that if this matter is leaked, the Yan family will disappear from the world of immortality."
Before she finished speaking, the silver-white flying water sword suddenly flew out and gently circled her waterfall-like hair.
She gritted her silver teeth and said resolutely, "Cut off the hair first. If the news leaks from me, then cut off the head."
There was a flash of silver light, and dozens of strands of black hair fell down one after another, floating all over the ground.
Zhou Shu looked at her quietly, "That's enough, senior sister."
Make an oath with your true heart. If you violate it, inner demons will arise and it will be difficult for practitioners to make progress. Moreover, the object of the oath is the Yan family, which is what Yan Yue cares about most.
He was very relieved.
Looking at Zhou Shu's expression, Yan Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the tears on his face, "Thank you, junior brother, there are many formations arranged in this secret room. No one can detect them, and I will never do it again."
When I mention it, it’s still the same as before, I will keep this matter in my heart forever.”
Zhou Shu nodded, "Senior sister, I believe you."
He knows that now he is closely related to the Yan family. If something happens to him, the Yan family may really be doomed. Even if everyone else wants to deal with him, Yan Yue cannot do it.
"Junior brother, thank you for believing in me."
Yan Yue put away the flying water sword and said softly, "I also want to remind myself, so as not to accidentally make a mistake. If I have something to do, just forget it, for fear of injuring my junior brother."
She looked at the scattered hair on the ground, her eyebrows were lowered, and her expression was a little sad.
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "Sister, if you cut off your long hair, it will look better."
Yan Yue raised her head and smiled helplessly, "Junior brother, don't make fun of me. When I return to the sect, I don't know how to face my fellow disciples."
As she said this, she felt a sense of inexplicable joy in her heart.
Zhou Shu just looked at her with a smile on his lips.
This was the first time he saw a female cultivator with short hair in this world of immortality cultivation. The long hair of Yan Yue in front of him was much shorter, less pretty, but more heroic, and even more different from other female cultivators.
Yan Yue lowered her head slightly, not daring to meet his gaze, "Junior brother, let me give you the spiritual stone from last month first."
