The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 196: Covering one’s ears and stealing the bell (Supplement)

In Zhang Jingyuan's cave.

Bai Buhui and Zhang Jingyuan sat opposite each other on both sides of the table. In front of them were two cups of fragrant tea with faint green smoke floating around, exuding the alluring aroma of tea.

I don’t know how long it took.

As the tea in the cup gradually bottomed out, Zhang Jingyuan placed the cup on the table, stood up and returned directly to the training room. He had no intention of saying hello to Bai Bugui, and he didn't care that Bai Bugui was still sitting here. , holding the teacup in his hand, taking small sips and sipping gently.

Bai Buhui didn't pay attention to Zhang Jingyuan's sudden withdrawal.

After all, from the time she entered Zhang Jingyuan's cave, the two of them had not said a word. They just sat quietly and quietly. It seemed that in their world there was only the cup of tea in front of them, but not each other. Naturally, there is no need to communicate.

I don’t know when the relationship between the two of them started to become like this.

To be honest, Bai Bugui sometimes thought about it carefully and wondered why she did this. If it was just to drink tea, wouldn't it be good for her to drink tea in her cave?

Why do you have to come to Zhang Jingyuan’s cave?

Most of the time, she would sit here for half a day, and the two of them would rarely talk to each other. After all, she had not been someone who liked sharing since she was a child. Although in the eyes of outsiders, as the deputy director of the Adjudication Department, she should be able to live a good life. What a magnificent day, with the flash of swords and shadows.

But she felt that such a day was actually the same as ordinary people eating and dressing, working at sunrise and breathing at sundown. There was no difference, and there was nothing that could be used as a place to talk.

As for Zhang Jingyuan, he is even more boring and has nothing to say.

After all, it seems unrealistic to expect a person who has barely left his cave in the past seven years to be able to talk endlessly and interestingly about what he has seen, heard, and lived.

But the strange thing is that she is willing to come to Zhang Jingyuan's place to sit there, even if she doesn't do anything, even if Zhang Jingyuan is still practicing in seclusion, and she is happy to drink by herself in Zhang Jingyuan's cave. Extremely comfortable.

It seemed that as long as she knew Zhang Jingyuan was here, the rest was not important.

However, what's even more weird is that Zhang Jingyuan didn't find anything strange about Bai Bugui's abnormal behavior, and even gave Bai Bugui permission to enter his cave, so that Bai Bugui wouldn't have to interrupt him every time he came. practice.

East Wu West Rabbit, the sun sets in the east, and as the restriction at the gate of the cave is touched, Zhang Jingyuan slowly opens his eyes, looks out the window, and then realizes that another day has passed.

After opening the restriction, Zhao Shiwen and others were seen filing in, filling the huge cave to the brim.

Glancing at the empty coffee table, Bai Bugui didn't know when he had left. Maybe it was just now, or maybe last night, but it didn't matter.

However, what surprised Zhang Jingyuan was that Ruan Baizhi and An Pengju also came.

Their eyes met, and even though it had been seven years, they could still see a different emotion in each other's eyes.

"I met two fellow Taoists. I haven't seen them for a long time. I miss them very much."

Looking at the two of them, Zhang Jingyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, nodded and said.

After all, they are friends of life and death. Let alone An Pengju, even Ruan Baizhi is a genuine one of his own in his mind and has taken his special elixir.

And if he had a fight with An Qingxian and he was the loser, there would be a high probability that Ruan Baizhi would also come down to accompany him.

With such a shared life and death, how could Zhang Jingyuan not have some special emotions?

"Long time no see, I miss you so much..."

Speaking of this, Ruan Baizhi suddenly felt a lot of tears coming out of her eyes. She quickly sniffed, and then pretended to be resentful and said: "I thought Classmate Zhang had forgotten me a long time ago."

But the sparkling tears in her eyes and the choked words had clearly exposed her true thoughts.

An Pengju gave Zhang Jingyuan a big hug without any secret, and said with a smile: "Brother Jingyuan, I am proud of you. If you show your strength earlier, I will be able to follow my fellow Taoist brothers. Brag, I am your friend."

"But it's not too late."

Zhang Jingyuan smiled and hit An Peng on the shoulder.

To be honest, so many things have changed in the past seven years. He can clearly feel that An Pengju is much more cheerful and lively than he was seven years ago.

Of course, what has changed the most is An Pengju's figure. This tall and majestic appearance is really far from the previous image of Pian Pianjia.

He could see that An Pengju's change was certainly due to the Tianyu Daoyuan's skills, but more importantly, it was because An Pengju himself wanted to completely separate from his previous self.

As for Ruan Baizhi, there is not much to say. The biggest change from before is that she is more beautiful and confident.

If Ruan Baizhi at that time was just a budding flower that had been exposed to wind and rain, now Ruan Baizhi has become somewhat frost-covered and independent. After all, you must know that Deji Hall has been under the management of Ruan Baizhi. In the past seven years, she has seen so many monsters and monsters, and she has already experienced them.

There were nearly twenty people crowded into Zhang Jingyuan's cave in a vast area, and no one felt crowded. Even Ruan Baizhi and An Pengju didn't feel unfamiliar to Zhao Shiwen and others.

Listening to the way they were chatting, someone who didn't know it would have thought that they were close friends who have known each other for many years.

However, what they were talking about was the shocking grace of Zhang Jingyuan's sword attack yesterday. Looking at his cheerful and excited expression, those who didn't know it might have thought that they were the ones who defeated Zhong Zhijun yesterday, not Zhang Jingyuan.

To be honest, although he felt that after half an era of training in his previous life, he had become indifferent to honor and disgrace, but Zhang Jingyuan still felt a little strange when he heard his friend brag about himself in front of him.

When the conversation got more exciting, Zhao Shiwen not only brought out the good wine they had left at Zhang Jingyuan's place, he even went outside and shot two rabbits, a pig and a snake, and grilled them directly outside Zhang Jingyuan's cave.

This Tianzhu Peak is the place with the most spiritual energy in the entire Longxiang Taoist Academy. In addition, it is sparsely populated and only a few teachers live here. Naturally, many wild beasts breed here.

Although these beasts cannot be said to have turned on their intelligence and turned into monsters, their meat quality is far better than many outside. The most important thing is that because the biological chain is incomplete and there are no natural enemies, many beasts are stupid. People don’t know how to hide.

But it is normal to think about it. After all, on Tianzhu Peak, except for people like Zhao Shiwen, the other disciples of the Taoist Academy do not have the courage to catch the rabbits from Tianzhu Peak and roast them.

Early the next morning, Zhang Jingyuan came out of the training room and found that Zhao Shiwen and the others, including Ruan Baizhi and An Pengju, had all left.

In the cave that was noisy yesterday, at this moment, Bai Bugui was the only one sitting at the table, drinking tea gently.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but feel dazed. If he hadn't seen two money bags on the table, he would have thought that time had gone back and what happened yesterday didn't happen. It should be the day before yesterday.

"when did you come?"

Zhang Jingyuan asked while picking up the money bag.

After thinking about it, Bai Buhui said directly: "After your friends leave."

Although he was not surprised by this answer, Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but curl his lips when he thought of Bai Bugui on the other side, in his cave, eagerly waiting for Zhao Shiwen and others to leave so that he could slip in and drink tea. Upturned.

After all, no matter how you think about this scene, you find it funny.

"Why don't you just come here because you're afraid of meeting Zhao Shiwen and the others?" Zhang Jingyuan asked curiously.

After hesitating for a moment, Bai Bugui said uncertainly: "I heard from people that it is not good for a man and a woman to live together in the same room, so I waited until no one could see me before I came over."

After hearing this, Zhang Jingyuan was stunned for a long time, and then he finally figured out what the logic behind Bai Bugui's words was.

According to Bai Buhui's intention, as long as others don't see it, she doesn't count as being in the same room with him, a man and a woman alone.

This is not a proper cover-up!
But he had to admit that Bai Bugui's logic was indeed self-consistent, and even made some sense. After all, if you couldn't see it, didn't it mean it didn't exist?

With just a few words, Zhang Jingyuan had already finished everything he needed to say to Bai Buhui. After drinking a cup of tea with him, Zhang Jingyuan returned to the training room by himself as usual.

However, this time he did not start practicing immediately, but poured out all the spiritual stones in the two money bags.

Looking at the two Lingshi hills in front of him, Zhang Jingyuan had a strange expression. Sometimes, too much money comes too easily, which is also a worry.

After all, if you are used to making quick money, you will always think about making quick money and take shortcuts. However, sometimes, the biggest shortcut is to be down-to-earth and take one step at a time.

There is no doubt that this small pile of spiritual stones, which costs about three to four hundred yuan, should have been sent by Ruan Baizhi. It should be regarded as the profit dividend of Deji Hall in the past seven years.

Judging from these spiritual stones, the development of Deji Hall in the past seven years is still very good.

The large pile contains almost one thousand two to three hundred spirit stones, which should have been sent by Zhao Shiwen.

Yesterday, Zhao Shiwen mentioned that he would be given part of the spiritual stone for the gambling game, but he declined. After all, in his opinion, he had not paid much, but he did not expect that Zhao Shiwen would still send it over.

And what surprised him even more was that there were so many.

I really don't know whether to say that the word "profit" is touching, or that there are too many people expecting him to lose. Zhang Jingyuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

But there is a high probability that it is mostly the former.

After collecting all these spiritual stones, Zhang Jingyuan once again calmed down and worked hard to practice.

After all, he will start entering Lingbao Lake next year. Although there should be no surprises, he is definitely higher in strength.

　This chapter makes up for what I wrote yesterday. I overestimated myself and thought I could write three chapters. But under normal circumstances, I still had two chapters left.
