After leaving Hongbeng Village, Shen Shi found a secluded forest on the way back to the Black Fish Market. Seeing no one on either side, he went in and hung his clothes on the tops of trees in the forest Although the island is wet, the sea breeze never stops, even at the edge of the forest. It dries up quickly after a while.
Shen Shi shakes these clothes and puts them back on. He feels relaxed. Although he spent a day killing and shelling shrimps in Hongbeng Village, he was almost drowned in the sea. He is still tired now, but his spirit is good.
Walking out of the forest, we strode back. The road from the gathering of black carp to Hongbeng Village had no other fork, so after the teenagers who went to Hongbeng Village left, the road suddenly became cold. At the time when the sun was about to set, Shen Shi was left alone.
When he came, he was busy, and when he returned, he was lonely. There was a big gap between the scenes before and after. However, Shen Shi looked unconcerned and walked on the road briskly. When I walked back to the Black Carp Fair like this, I saw that the sun in the western sky seemed closer to the distant sea level, reflecting a brilliant sunset, and at the same time, it reflected on the boundless sea, and dyed a large area of the sea red.
At this time, the herring gathering is no longer lively. Many disciples of Lingxiao Sect seem to have returned to their cave. Even the shops on both sides of the road that are somewhat inconvenient are closed. It seems that everyone on the herring island has been used to taking a rest early, which is quite different from the appearance of those prosperous cities in the secular world that are still brightly lit even until dark.
Shen Shi wanted to go to two shops to have a look, but he thought it would be a long time, so he wasn't in a hurry. Seeing that the herring was cold, he didn't stay much, so he walked back on the way to his own cave near the sea in White Fish Bay.
When he stepped out of the cold herring fair, he was thinking, did Sun You, He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang find any suitable task after they left Hongbeng Village?

When Shen Shi walked back to the quiet and beautiful White Fish Bay along the flat and wide seashore avenue, the sky was getting dark, and the setting sun was shining on the bay. The gentle waves of the calm sea caressed the white beach with a gentle hand like a lover.
It's dusk, but what Shen Shi didn't expect was that this place should be a quiet and lonely place. Now it seems more lively than the Green Fish Market. Many new disciples living in this bay came out of the cave and played and walked on this long and beautiful beach. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on every young man and woman, Show their happy smiles.
After all, those who come here are teenagers.
Running on the beach or jumping in the sea, they splashed countless white waves, splashed a few clothes and skirts, and laughed in the sea wind, which added some extra vitality to this evening.
Shen Shi didn't want to go back to the cave for a moment, but walked to the edge of the beach, found a stone and sat down. He stared at the busy beach and quietly looked at the distant deep sea where the sunset was about to set.
The sea breeze blew his hair, like a day's fatigue, and it dissipated in the fresh wind at this moment.
The footsteps suddenly remembered that two figures passed by him, and one of them suddenly turned around and looked at him. Shen Shi looked up and saw that it was Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu. Zhong Qinglu walked ahead of her, holding a small bag in her hand, and took out some snacks from it to eat from time to time. Her plump cheeks were slightly flushed, which was more pleasing than the day. As for Zhong Qingzhu, she was still cautious and followed the cousin carefully.
Zhong Qinglu obviously recognized Shen Shi and looked at her with unfriendly eyes. However, it was Sun You who offended Bai Yueli the most. Shen Shi was just innocent. It seems that Miss Zhong didn't have any plans to specifically target Shen Shi either. She just glared at him again and left like a proud peacock. Zhong Qingzhu smiled apologetically at Shen Shi behind her and quickly followed her.
Shen Shi rubbed his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
When the last sunset finally dissipated with the sun sinking into the sea, it was late at night in Whitefish Bay. Many teenagers left the beach and returned to their caves. Soon, the beach regained its tranquility, leaving only the sound of waves and tides in the dark. Under the wind at night, they seemed to be thinking about it endlessly.
Shen Shi also returned to his "A-41" cave. After opening the stone door with a cloud sign and entering, he thought it would be a dark cave. But after he closed the stone door, four rays of light suddenly lit up from the stone wall at the top of the cave, gentle as the stars at night, and fell on the cave, which immediately made it bright.
This shocked Shen Shi. Last night, when he was resting here, he didn't have this kind of abnormality. He immediately walked to the cave and looked up at his head. It was just that there were four fist sized pearls on the solid stone wall. The light just came from these pearls. On the stone wall in the middle of the four beads, there is also a palm sized gossip jade plate. With the brilliance of the pearl, you can still see the clouds moving above.
Shen Shi suddenly thought of the Eight Diagrams Lock on the stone door when he entered the door. After a little meditation, he took out the cloud amulet and tried to wave it to the Eight Diagrams Jade Plate on the stone wall above his head. A moment later, he saw the cloud flow, and the Eight Diagrams Jade Plate responded. The four bright pearls slowly darkened, and the cave was in darkness.
After a while, Shen Shi waved again, and the pearl light came on again.
This is the magic magic of the cave that was opened only today. Shen Shi looks up at the magic pearl and marvels at it. With these four pearls, it is really convenient. At least you don't need to light candles at night to read.
Only... Shen Shi slowly sat down at the table, his happy face receded, but his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Why didn't he let go of this prohibition yesterday, but it was a day late?

There is a herring collection in the Xuanyue Hall.
Wang Gen sat on the futon and looked at Kang Chen, who was also sitting near him. His face was not good and his face was as heavy as water. Kang Chen, on the other hand, looked guilty. He smiled and dared not speak. He also looked evasively at Wang Gen.
"Hum..." Wang Gen gave a cold grunt, stopped looking at Kang Chen's handsome face, and went to the tea table beside him to drink tea. Kang Chen jumped up and rushed to the table. He poured a cup of water in a dog's leg manner, and then handed it to Wang Gen. He smiled and said, "Elder martial brother, drink tea and tea."
Wang Gen shrugged, took it with a sulky face, took a drink, sneered again, and said, "Well, what's the matter with so many 'Xinghuizhu' caves in Baiyu Bay?"
Kang Chen laughed and said, "Elder martial brother, I don't have many things to do at the same time. I forgot to lift the ban..."
"Bah!" Wang Geng looked at him in disbelief and said, "You have a lot of things to do with your nobleman, so many ghosts in your heart are real!"
Kang Chen rubbed his hands and looked up at Wang Gen secretly. He looked cold. With his original tall and dignified manner, he was not angry. Kang Chen Ping Yueli was afraid of this senior brother Wang. He knew that he could not escape. He hesitated for a moment and finally told him honestly, He said: "I'm going to find Elder Martial Sister Gan. I begged her to ask Uncle Yunni to come out and help Elder Martial Brother Du to ask for a favor, so it delayed the affairs on the Green Fish Island."
Wang Gen lowered his eyes and looked at the cup in his hand. The hand holding the cup was slightly tightened.
A moment later, he frowned and said, "It's just you."
Kang Chen apologized and said: "Elder martial brother, I'm not worried that Elder martial brother Du will be locked in the 'Black Cloud Cave'. It's too long for Yin Qi to invade his body. If he breaks his way, it will be bad."
Wang Gen snorted and said, "Just you are a kind person. Other people, like me, are merciless and indifferent to Elder Martial Brother Du?"
Kangchen immediately shook his head like a drum and said, "I have no intention of what you said, Elder Martial Brother!"
Wang Gen sneered and said lightly: "Since you care about Elder Martial Brother Du so much, how about going to ask Uncle Yunni today?"
Kang Chen paused for a moment, and his eyes rolled as if he was trying to sort out his words. Then he heard Wang Gen saying directly, "If I'm not wrong, would Uncle Yunni not want to see you at all, and would drive you back right outside Tianmi Cave?"
Kang Chen was stunned and looked up at Wang Gen. Although he didn't say anything more, his face was obviously surprised and said everything. Wang Geng shook his head and looked like he was too lazy to talk to a fool again. Kang Chen suddenly jumped up and came up behind Wang Gen. He put his hands together and started to knead his shoulders for Wang Gen. He said with a smile, "Senior brother, senior brother, you are very clever. Everything is like seeing it by yourself. Why not..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Gen had already waved his hands away and said angrily, "They are all men. Don't be so disgusting."
Kang Chen laughed and said, "Elder Martial Brother, how do you know that Martial Uncle Yunni is not willing to help?"
Wang Gen looked at him and said: "Martial Uncle Yunni's position in our school is really different. Several elders, including the leader, Immortal Huaiyuan, will give her three points. But don't forget, in addition to offending Elder Sun, the most important thing is that Elder Martial Brother Du scolded Elder Martial Uncle Sun."
Kangchen was shocked, looked at Wang Gen, frowned and said, "Elder martial brother, do you mean that even Uncle Yunni doesn't want to cause trouble this time?"
Wang Gen said lightly: "You and I have a good idea of the status of Shishuzu in the sect. As the only ancestor in the sect who broke through the Death Pass of the Pill State of the Yuan Dynasty and arrived at the Tiangang State in hundreds of years, plus his efforts to turn the tide in the 'Turtle Rebellion' 30 years ago, he overcame evil spirits, and tried to rule out all suggestions to confront the leader of the sect..." When he said this, he stopped for a moment, didn't go on, but took a deep look at Kang Chen, Kang Chen's face also changed slightly and nodded slowly.
After a moment, Wang Gen's voice sounded again, Avenue: "Although Martial Uncle is now in retreat, he doesn't care about everything in the sect, but his reputation is so high that he doesn't want to be a second person. Even martial uncle Yunni is not willing to interfere in matters related to the old ancestor. What's more, Elder Martial Brother Du scolded Martial Uncle for some reason? Elder Martial Brother Du Ping Yue is deeply loved by the leader of the sect and is his most proud disciple. Why does he have such a bad attack this time? Don't you think about the reason? "
Kang Chen's face was impassive. After a while, he hung his head and said, "So, Elder Martial Brother Du is hopeless?"
Wang Gen slowly took the cup in his hand and took a sip. There was no expression on his face, but after a while, the corners of his mouth slightly pulled, and he seemed to sigh slightly, saying, "There is still a way..."
Kang Chen jumped to his feet, and his face showed great joy. Wang Gen stared at him. Kang Chen immediately shrank his head, but his eyes could not hide the eager look.
Wang Gen shook his head and glanced over the cup in front of him. After a moment of silence, he gently put it on the tea table.
In some light, the warm Ming porcelain edge of the teacup base can be vaguely seen, which quietly cracks a thin gap.
