Chapter 565: Mind Is Useless
"It's strange for an old man like this to act unexpectedly. It's strange to help someone commit suicide, but he failed to commit suicide. Instead, he taught others the magic formula, and he never showed up afterwards. It seems that he didn't have any demands on Lin Zhu. Most monks would do such a thing. not coming out..."
Zhou Shu thought to himself that he already had the answer in his heart, but he didn't say it, didn't interrupt Lin Zhu's narration, and just continued to listen.
Lin Zhu glanced at Zhou Shu, lowered her head again, and sighed, "Practice the formula taught by the old man, the little girl's progress is very fast, but..."
The Nashui Zhenjue is very suitable for Lin Zhu's physique. It can be said that Lin Zhu is improving every day, and the speed of practice is unimaginable for ordinary people. Ten years ago, she reached the Jindan state in one fell swoop.
One must know that Lin Zhu ten years ago was only twenty-one years old.
From the age of fourteen to twenty-one, the golden core was achieved in seven years, even Zhou Shu couldn't help showing a bit of astonishment.
Lin Zhu, who came from the Xiuxian family, had never heard of such a speed of cultivation, but she couldn't believe it when it happened to her. She thought it was because of the perfect combination of Nashui Zhenjue and herself. She was full of anticipation and joy, and had been planning to Then, after condensing the pill, go back to the Lin family, let those family members who dislike her take a good look, she can also practice.
But after congealing the pill, she suddenly discovered that the golden pill she condensed was not golden, but as blue as the sea, with a majestic aura of water in it.
Others are golden pills, but hers are blue pills.
With doubts, she left the East China Sea, traveled abroad, looked up the classics everywhere, and then she understood, "The true formula of Nashui is not a formula for cultivators."
That old man should be a transformed monster from the bottom of the sea, and she herself became a monster cultivator unknowingly.
Lin Zhu was shocked by this fact. After being shocked, she gave up the idea of going to the family again and returned to Donghai.
In the eyes of the world, becoming a demon cultivator is more unacceptable than not being able to cultivate, and it is also more disgusted by others. People in the family may not even invite someone to kill demons and eliminate demons. Why go back and be humiliated again.
But this time, after going through a lot, she was not as desperate as in the past, nor did she resent the fact that the old man was a monster. She was very calm, even if others didn't accept it, she was already a cultivator, able to study the formations she liked , what is not satisfied.
For the past ten years, Lin Zhu has been living in the East China Sea, studying the Dao of Formation, which has both fun and troubles, such as the need to move from time to time and so on.
As long as someone discovers the island where she lives, she has to leave, because her combat power is really low.
Maybe it's the limitations of the human body, or maybe it's the lack of the Nashui formula itself. She absorbs spiritual power and transforms it quickly, but she can't even use a few decent formulas, and she can't use most of the magic weapons. It can be said that , in terms of combat, she is far from reaching the level of Jindan practitioners.
"Except for some formations, the little girl is really useless, far inferior to other cultivators, let alone seniors."
She spoke softly, then raised her eyes to look at Zhou Shu, her eyes were full of worry, and then she lowered her head sympathetically.
Zhou Shu looked indifferent, and nodded, seemingly thoughtful.
What she said was not like a lie, she was very frank. It can be seen that Lin Zhu's situation is very rare, and her strength is also admirable. It's just that Zhou Shu was still calm. He knew that Lin Zhu was thoughtful, and she seemed to say a lot, and it was true, but she said what should be said, but she didn't say what should not be said, she was not an ordinary woman.
Strange spells, status as a demon cultivator, and low combat power, even if Lin Zhu didn't say these things, Zhou Shu could slowly see them, and some things he was puzzled about, such as how she lived near the East China Sea where bandits were rampant ten years? Moreover, the most dangerous thing is to move. Facing the most vicious bandits, how can she move away safely with her cultivation? It's really strange, but Lin Zhu didn't say a word about these things.
Could it be that she is also a top-notch bandit?
If there hadn't been the incident of the two thieves attacking before, he might have thought this way, but judging from her panicked expression at the time, it seemed that she didn't know those thieves, and Zhou Shu could also tell that she wasn't just pretending. .
Then, she must have some hidden means to protect herself, not as delicate as she looks on the outside, even if she doesn't take action, she should have a way to escape.
In addition, Zhou Shu has never met a woman who has voluntarily revealed many of her secrets in two meetings. It is really impossible to say that she has no conspiracy.
And she deliberately kept herself, and said so many words with her mind to show her situation and win sympathy, mostly to pave the way for the later request, and that request is not so easy to fulfill, otherwise there is no need to be half-truthful and half-false That said so much.
However, Zhou Shu only acts according to his heart, he can do what he wants to do, he can't do what he doesn't want to do, and he rarely changes because of others. In his opinion, these things are superfluous.
Glancing at Lin Zhu meaningfully, Zhou Shu stood up slowly, cupped her hands and said, "I've been bothering Miss Lin for a long time, and it's time for me to say goodbye."
"ah?"
Lin Zhu raised her head hastily, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, "Senior, are you leaving now?"
Zhou Shu nodded with a smile, "Yes, I've already drank the spirit tea, so it's really inconvenient to bother me, so I'll take my leave."
"Did the little girl offend senior? Senior has some dissatisfaction. The little girl will correct it now. I'm sorry..."
Lin Zhu looked a little panicked, and quickly stood up to salute, bowing down gracefully.
"Girl, you think too much and do too much."
Zhou Shu frowned, pulled her up with a wave of his sleeves, stared at Lin Zhu, and said calmly, "Miss Lin, you don't have to put so much thought into it. If you have something to do, you might as well just say it. If it's simple, I can help you if I can do it." You have done it, if it is troublesome, treat it as a transaction with benefits, if you agree, you will succeed, if you disagree, you will divide."
To be honest, he had a little affection for Lin Zhu. If Lin Zhu asked directly, he might not refuse, but her various thoughts made him feel a little annoyed.
Lin Zhu was stunned for a moment, then raised her head to look at Zhou Shu, her eyes gradually changed.
Those frailties quickly dissipated, replaced by strength and calmness. She looked at Zhou Shu, her figure was still slender, but she stood extremely steadily, her clothes fluttering slightly, showing a faint aura.
At this time, Lin Zhu looked like he had lived alone in the East China Sea for ten years.
She looked at Zhou Shu, sighed softly, and said sternly, "Senior, the little girl is only a villain, and it is my fault that I underestimate you. Please forgive me, senior."
After meeting Zhou Shu and seeing that the rumored raccoon is so young and seems to be easy to talk, she came up with such an idea. All the subsequent actions were trying to influence and confuse Zhou Shu in all aspects, so that Zhou Shu could do things for him.
But now she knows that Zhou Shu is different from the few people she met before, and is not so easily influenced by others, and has already understood her thoughts, and the thoughts she used before are completely useless.
So she immediately apologized.
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, "Tell me what you want, I will decide according to the situation."
Lin Zhu nodded, "Senior, the little girl found a sunken island at the bottom of the sea."
"Shen Island?"
Zhou Shu stared at Lin Zhu with surprise in his eyes.
