The eighth day of May is sunny.
The blue sky and the serene and beautiful sea seem to have become the common memory of many years on the Green Fish Island. On this island like a paradise, most of the days of the year are sunny. Although there are occasional rainy days, on the whole, the sky on the Green Fish Island is always so blue.
This day is no exception.
The sky is blue, the sea is blue, the beach is white, and the seabirds are flying up and down on the coastline, singing from time to time, flying with the wind. When Shen Shi walks out of the cave, he sees such a familiar picture.
He faced the sea, stretched a big stretch, and then took a subconscious look at the cave next to him. A moment later, Sun You, who had almost formed the habit of getting up early in the past three years, came out on time, with a tired look that he rarely saw after he had reached the middle level of the Qi refining world. He looked listless.
Shen Shi smiled and said, "How about the practice of fireball? Can it be condensed into flames?"
Sun You said angrily, "What the hell? I can see why people said that the five element method was the most difficult to practice before. Boy, it's too difficult. Last night I had a hard time just running the formula of fireball in my body, let alone feeling the fire spirit! By the way, what about your water archery?"
Shen Shi held his hand and said, "Nothing has congealed."
Sun You cocked his mouth as if he had toothache and muttered, "The five element method is so difficult. I don't know who created it. I really don't want to leave a way for future generations."
Shen Shi said with a smile, "It's not as exaggerated as what you said. If it is true, all the countless free repairs in the world will die once." After a pause, he thought for a moment and said, "It's the origin of the Five Elements Technique. I've really noticed it before."
Sun You was stunned. He suddenly looked at his friend with a new look and said, "What, do you really know?"
Shen Shi shakes his head, Avenue: "Actually, it's nothing, but we can find some relevant ancient books to look at, but to tell the truth, we don't see any results at last. In those ancient books, we almost have different opinions on the origin of the Five Element Method, some say that it was created by a senior master 3000 years ago; some think that the Five Element Method has appeared as early as the last year of the Heaven Demon King's Court, and it may even be created by one of the six saints of the human race; and more To exaggerate, it is said that these five elements are actually more ancient. As early as tens of thousands of years ago, when the Heaven Demon King's Court was born earlier, some of them began to spread. "
Sun You was stunned and said in amazement, "No, that's exaggeration?"
Shen Shi said with a wry smile: "So at the end of the day, I can't believe any of these words. Anyway, the Five Element Method has spread all over the world, but there should be no universally recognized statement about its origin."
Sun You curled his mouth and said, "It's really troublesome." Then he waved his hand. Just as he was about to say something to Shen Shi, he suddenly looked behind Shen Shi and smiled: "Morning, you got up so early?"
Shen Shi looked back and saw that He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang had come together. Three years later, they had also grown up a lot. However, He Xiaomei still looked small and exquisite, but Jiang Hongguang had grown up a lot. She looked quite tall. Standing beside He Xiaomei, she was a little taller than her, which was a bit like a flower escort.
In a word, Shen Shi, Sun You, Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu, four friends who had known each other since they lived near here, had reached the middle level of the gas refining realm three years later. Only He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang are still stuck in the early stage of the gas refining realm. After a long time, they became somewhat anxious and embarrassed. But generally speaking, the number of newcomers on the island is still in the early stage of the gas refining realm, So they didn't worry too much. However, just because of this, Jiang Hongguang and He Xiaomei seemed to share the same feeling, but they got closer to each other.
He Xiaomei smiled when he heard Sun You greet them. Her eyes, like before, immediately narrowed into two beautiful little moons and nodded with a smile. Jiang Hongguang, who was tall and standing beside her, seemed a little unhappy. She gave Sun You a light look, as if she felt a little sorry for the ordinary greeting "You got up so early too", and said:"
"Yes, you middle level people in the gas refining world all get up so early and diligently, but we at the beginning can't be lazy any more, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with you in the future"
Sun You and Shen Shi both frowned. Seeing Sun You's face sinking slightly, they seemed to be about to say something. Shen Shi took a step, walked up to He Xiaomei, and said hurriedly, "He Younger Martial Sister, did you hear that you took a task on the green board a few days ago"
He Xiaomei smiled and said, "Yes, I was very lucky that day. I happened to be watching near the White Crane Hall, but at a glance, I saw a new task posted in the hall, which is' sprinkling 'in Holy Farming." After saying that, he giggled without waiting for others to react, obviously very happy.
Sun You glanced at Shen Shi, and the corners of his mouth slightly cocked up. Shen Shi seemed to notice his eyes, looked at him intentionally or unintentionally, and winked at him. Sun You shrugged his shoulders, Turning to He Xiaomei, he smiled: "You're lucky. I've heard that Holy Farming is at least a green board task. It pays a lot, but it's very difficult. It's the only thing that watering is the cheapest. You just need to go to the Holy Spring in the mountains to fetch water and then go to the Holy Land to irrigate. Although the journey is far, it's very cost-effective compared with the reward of the green board task. Previously, this task was always grabbed by people, and I don't know why a quota was released that day Come out. "
He Xiaomei's eyes narrowed again, smiling sweetly like a flower.
Watching Shen Shi and Sun You talking to He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang seemed to feel uncomfortable. He coughed a little and took a step forward unconsciously, but he stood beside He Xiaomei, with a faint look of protection.
He Xiaomei did not feel anything. She looked up at the sky and smiled at the two of them, "Well, I don't want to tell you. I should go to Lingquan to fetch water. Otherwise, if the elder martial brother in Linggeng gets angry and dismisses me when he is late, it will be useless crying."
Shen Shi laughed, got out of the way, and said with a smile, "That's right. It's important. Go quickly."
Sun You also smiled, but his eyes stopped on Jiang Hongguang beside He Xiaomei, intentionally or unintentionally, and then stood beside Shen Shi.
He Xiaomei smiled at them and walked forward. Jiang Hongguang still followed her. After walking for a while, Jiang Hongguang looked at He Xiaomei, who seemed very happy with a smile on her face, and suddenly said, "Xiaomei, I think those two people seem to look down on us a little."
He Xiaomei was a little surprised and said, "Did I feel it?"
Jiang Hongguang sneered and said, "You didn't look at the way they looked at us just now. They both said they were separated from each other. Especially the Sun You said that you were getting up so early, as if he was satirizing us." As he said this, he looked a little disgusted and said, "They just depend on their good family background. They don't know how much advantage they have gained in the past three years, which is why they reached the middle level of the gas refining world earlier than those of us who have no access to it."
He Xiaomei shook her head and said, "Although there are many elder martial brothers and elder martial sisters from aristocratic families on the island, there are sect rules there. In fact, they are not as cheap as you said." After saying that, I thought of something. I smiled and said to Jiang Hongguang, "By the way, Elder Martial Brother Jiang, you said that you had no family background. But three years ago, you got such a good job as animal feeding."
Jiang Hongguang paused for a moment, and his face looked a little embarrassed. He giggled and didn't answer.
He Xiaomei didn't have any idea. She smiled and said, "But we really need to work harder to catch up with them. If we had a chance, it would be great if we could quickly cultivate to Ningyuan, so that I can climb the mountain and get out of the island, and then I can go back to Yangzhou to see my father."
Jiang Hongguang raised his eyebrows slightly, nodded and agreed, "Yes, indeed." Then he looked at He Xiaomei with a smile and said, "Xiaomei, I remember you said before that your family was in Yangzhou. Is your father the owner of a famous family there?"
He Xiaomei smiled and waved her hand and said, "It's not a very famous family. At least it's incomparable with the big vassal families of our Lingxiao Sect. But my father has been in charge of housework for a long time and he also loves me. He tried his best to let me worship the Lingxiao Sect. He gave me fifty Lingjing when he left. As a result... Alas, if those Lingjing could be in his hands, I wouldn't have to work so hard."
Jiang Hongguang smiled and nodded, saying, "I heard that Yangzhou is also a good place. I will go to see it with you if I have a chance."
He Xiaomei smiled, "Good."
Jiang Hongguang lowered his head slightly and smiled.

As the two men walked away slowly, Sun You's smile slowly disappeared, and he suddenly snorted: "Look at Jiang Hongguang's weird appearance, it seems that we owe him a lot of money."
Shen Shi smiled and said, "Maybe he is a bit stubborn. You are a handsome man with a long family background who can even practice faster than him. You can't let go."
Sun You sneered and said, "Who wants to compete with him? Is it my fault that he can't cultivate himself... Eh, what did you say just now?"
Shen Shi said, "The cultivation is one step faster than him."
Sun You immediately shook his head and said, "That's what I said."
Shen Shi said, "My family background is better than him."
Sun You shook his head again and said, "Back, back..."
Shen Shi shakes his head helplessly and says, "Well, you are a little more handsome than him..."
Sun You laughed and slapped Shen Shi on the shoulder, saying, "Those who know me, Shen Shi!"
Shen Shi turns around and can't look straight at the narcissistic guy. He just sees two more people coming, but it's the Zhong sisters. He nods to Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu and they smile.
Zhong Qing exposed his eyes. As usual, she was as proud as a peacock. She looked disdainful. But she has been like this for three years. Shen Shisunyou is used to it. Even if the sense of pride is much more obvious than Jiang Hongguang, they didn't think anything was wrong. As for Zhong Qingzhu, of course, his face was much better. He smiled at them and said, "Hey, why do you both look like you haven't woken up?"
After thinking about it, Zhong Qingzhu seemed to think of something, and smiled: "Is it possible that you were tired of practicing the Five Element Method all night last night?"
Sun You complained angrily, "Yes, I didn't expect that the Five Element Method is so difficult to learn."
Zhong Qingzhu smiled and said, "This is how it is. Are you too eager for success?" As she said this, she gave Shen Shi a soft look, which seemed to show some concern. She said, "Elder Martial Brother Shen, are you the same? Take care of yourself
Shen Shi smiled and nodded. Sun You said beside him, "Anyway, practice slowly in the future. By the way, Younger Martial Sister Zhong, didn't you also take a 'quicksand technique' back yesterday? Did you practice it in the evening? You look good today. Did you slacken off last night?"
Shen Shi suddenly moved in his heart, and his eyes fell on Zhong Qingzhu's face. Zhong Qingzhu smiled and said, "I'm not as talented as my elder sister or your two elder martial brothers. How dare I be lazy? Last night I practiced quicksand in the cave all night, but I fell asleep because I was too tired. So I didn't look tired until I got up in the morning."
Sun You said, "Oh," and smiled, "I slept."
Shen Shi is also smiling beside him. He just looks at Zhong Qingzhu and becomes more confused.
