Chapter 130 As long as he is safe
Chapter 130 As long as he is safe
The next morning, Shen Zhaozhao saw a note Chu Yu had left for her.
【Come back in two days and wait for me. 】
After packing everything, she took the talisman paper to the cave.
Just like in the dream woven by the phantom demon, there is a lawn at the entrance of the cave. The sunlight shines through the treetops onto the grass and is reflected into the cave. The huge stalactites emit a hazy color.
The stone on which her father sat cross-legged when he was transcending the tribulation was shattered by thunder, and a lot of debris was scattered on the ground.
Shen Zhaozhao used his spiritual power to explore and found that they were just ordinary stones.
She pursed her lips, not feeling disappointed at all, as she had already realized that too much time had passed and it would not be easy to find the truth.
When I flew back to the sect, the morning bell just rang. On the way, I met many disciples rushing to the square.
Her master, Elder Ziyuan, was teaching his disciple how to use water talismans. The clear and soft water in the bowl turned into water snakes in the air, accurately piercing through peanut-sized stones.
Elder Ziyuan's usually serious face showed a hint of smile.
In another queue, Elder Yuan Ming was asking Shi Yu to demonstrate swordsmanship to a group of sword-cultivating disciples.
The movements are smooth and flowing, and the sword light is awe-inspiring.
To be honest, she didn't really want to see the two elders right now, as they were all suspects in the murder of her father.
After some thought, she finally decided to land in the square.
She walked over and greeted the two elders.
Elder Ziyuan had a cold attitude, but Elder Yuanming smiled at her kindly.
Shi Yu was a little surprised when he saw her: "You actually came for morning exercise today?"
This question left her speechless for a moment.
According to her lazy and unambitious character in the book, she indeed rarely came for morning exercises.
Shen Zhaozhao didn't feel like arguing with him today, so he remained silent.
Shi Yu's eyes rolled around, and Shen Zhaozhao knew that he was up to something bad again when he saw this.
As expected, he looked at the talisman cultivators and said loudly, "Since you are their senior sister, shouldn't you set an example and show everyone your strength? I believe everyone wants to see it, don't you think so?"
There were also many curious people in the queue who responded loudly.
"Yes!"
Elder Ziyuan's face darkened a little.
Before she could scold him, Shen Zhaozhao said, "Of course."
She didn't want to cause trouble, but Shi Yu just wanted to find fault.
She stepped forward, picked out five stones and held them in her palm. Everyone was immediately in an uproar and began to whisper.
"What is Senior Sister Shen going to do? Smash five stones at the same time?"
"You think too highly of her strength. I don't believe she can smash five at the same time."
"That's right. Junior brother, you may not know this since you just arrived. We know it very well. It's hard for Senior Sister Shen to even break a stone. She is just bluffing and trying to show off her strength."
Shen Zhaozhao threw the stone into the air without saying a word, and quickly drew a rune with his right hand. The rune with golden light flew into the air and turned into an extremely thin water thread that hit the stone directly.
In an instant, the parabolic stones in the air turned into powder.
The whole audience was stunned.
Shi Yu didn't say anything else and led the applause.
Someone couldn't help but say, "Am I seeing things? That's Shuisi. She actually knows such a complicated spell."
"Wow, that's amazing! Brother, when can I practice this kind of magic?"
Shen Zhaozhao moved her fingertips slightly, and a yellowed and damaged book of magic appeared in her palm.
She handed the book to the disciple who had just exclaimed in amazement.
"You should already have a certain foundation. As long as you want to practice, you can practice the techniques above."
The disciple was delighted: "Thank you! Senior Sister, how long did you practice that technique just now?"
Shen Zhaozhao smiled awkwardly: "To be honest, I have been practicing for three months. You are more talented than me, so you should be faster."
Elder Ziyuan said coldly: "Since you know that you are not talented, why are you showing off here?"
Elder Yuanming stroked his beard and smiled: "That's wrong. For Zhaozhao to be able to practice this technique to this level, she must have studied it often and practiced diligently. You should praise her."
Shi Yu: "Two elders, her cultivation has indeed improved a lot."
Elder Ziyuan put two fingers together and probed Shen Zhaozhao's cultivation level.
It's indeed improved a lot, but it's still far from that kind of talent.
She waved her sleeves heavily, her expression still cold: "I'm afraid she will be too proud."
Shen Zhaozhao shrugged indifferently and drew circles on the ground with his toes.
At this moment, someone gently pulled his sleeve.
She turned around and recognized that it was Chu Yu's junior fellow apprentice who had run over from the sword cultivator team at some point in time.
She asked softly, "What's the matter?"
Mingyu: "Senior sister, do you know where my senior brother went?"
Shen Zhaozhao shook his head.
"I knew you didn't know." Mingyu grinned and patted his chest, "But I know. I overheard him talking to Master. He went to find a betrothal gift for you."
Shen Zhaozhao was confused as to what kind of betrothal gift was needed.
Could it be that all his family fortune was spent during his training?
In fact, this is not a big deal. She does have some pocket money, so she can just pool it together and make do with it.
"Senior sister." Mingyu opened his eyes wide like grapes, "Don't listen to what Elder Ziyuan says. I think you are amazing."
Shen Zhaozhao pinched his chubby face and said, "Thank you!"
After morning exercise, Shen Zhaozhao felt a little bored staying in the room, so he decided to walk around.
In late autumn, the red maple leaves and white apple trees look like clouds.
Before I knew it, I had reached the back mountain.
Because she was often punished to face the wall in the back mountain, she was quite familiar with this place.
After passing through the maple forest and going around the back of Siguo Cliff, a small wooden house appeared in front of us.
The warm autumn sun shone obliquely on the woman's gentle face. She sat in the yard, her dry and skinny fingers twisting the yarn non-stop, and the sound of the loom continued.
"Auntie."
When Aunt Wei saw her, she stopped what she was doing, smiled and waved at her.
Shen Zhaozhao walked over to her and squatted down, slowly saying: "Aunt, do you still remember me? I was punished to face the wall before, and you brought me food."
The monks had all gone on a fast and did not need to eat, but Aunt Wei knew that when someone was punished to face the wall, she would bring food to that person. The one she brought the most food to was her, a frequent visitor to the back mountain.
Aunt Wei nodded and touched her head gently.
Shen Zhaozhao smiled with his eyes bent: "I went down the mountain this year and I didn't get punished again."
Aunt Wei gestured a few times with her fingers.
Shen Zhaozhao roughly guessed what he meant, which was to ask her if she wanted to stay for lunch.
She nodded heavily: "Of course, I miss Aunt Wei's food."
Aunt Wei smiled and led her into the house.
This was the first time Shen Zhaozhao entered this room in his life, and he looked around with some curiosity.
Although there were not many things in the room, it was spacious and tidy. Shen Zhaozhao noticed that there were some wooden toys on the bed in the room on the right side near the door.
Aunt Wei saw her looking at that room and pushed her in with a smile.
Only then did Shen Zhaozhao realize that the room was spotlessly clean. There were some children's clothes in the closet, which were well preserved.
This is?
Aunt Wei introduced it to her using sign language: "This is the room my child used to live in."
An indescribable bitterness surged in his heart, and Shen Zhaozhao lowered his eyes.
Once in the middle of a nightmare, Chu Yu said that no one liked him or cared about him.
Therefore, he has always lacked a sense of security in relationships.
But Chu Yu, you have not only me, you also have Am who always misses you.
Little Chu Yu who escaped alone, someone was reluctant to throw away even the clothes you wore as a child.
Shen Zhaozhao asked: "Aunt, do you miss him?"
Aunt Wei picked up the rattle on the bed, stroked it gently with her fingertips, tears glistening in her eyes.
She signed: "As long as he is safe."
