Chapter 510 The Hidden Powerful Being Named Shenxu
"Hey... um... Taoist priest, my bag!"
Before Chu Chen could stop him, Shen Xu began examining Chu Chen's backpack.
But he had never seen such a magical thing as a zipper before.
Seeing the backpack that was about to be torn to shreds, Chu Chen immediately reached out and grabbed it, saying, "Daoist Master, let me take it, let me take it!"
After saying that, he snatched the backpack, reached inside, and pulled out a bottle of high-proof liquor in a ceramic container.
"Hmm, this is a fine container for wine, exceptionally exquisite. It must be good wine."
As soon as Chu Chen took out the wine, Shen Xu snatched it away and carefully pried open the bottle cap, afraid of breaking the bottle and spilling the wine.
Chu Chen's eyes widened in disbelief. Even with his master-level strength, he couldn't see how the wine ended up in the man's hands, which was enough to demonstrate the man's immense power.
But seeing his helpless expression as he tried to break the bottle, it was kind of funny.
So he stepped forward and said, "Senior, Daoist Master, this is how it should be opened!"
After saying that, he snatched the wine and twisted open the bottle cap.
"Haha, amazing, amazing, so fragrant... It's been so many years, my mouth has become so bland!"
Smelling the aroma of wine in the air, Shenxu blew into the bottle.
The strong liquor went down his throat and into his stomach, instantly filling his entire body with a spicy sensation.
He closed his eyes, savoring the long-lost taste, and then let out a long breath.
"Good wine! For this food and good wine alone, I'll consider you my brother!"
After saying that, he tried to pull Chu Chen outside to become sworn brothers.
This action shocked Chu Chen and Leng Shuang quite a bit.
"Um, Daoist Master, there's too much of an age gap between us, isn't that inappropriate?"
"Why not, boy? Kneel down..."
After a while.
"Heaven above, earth below, I, the divine being, ..."
"I, Chu Chen..."
"Today we become sworn brothers, not seeking to be born on the same day, month, and year, but only seeking..."
"Uh, kid, why don't you tell me?"
"Taoist Master, perhaps we should just give up. I don't want to die young!"
Chu Chen looked at him helplessly, thinking to himself, only a fool would want to die on the same day, month, and year as you. I still have a long life ahead of me.
Shenxu turned his head and thought about it, and realized that he was right. He was an old man, and it was indeed a bit difficult for him.
So he said, "Alright, I won't swear an oath. From now on, just call me Shenxu!"
"Okay, kidney deficiency..."
The ceremony was abruptly ended halfway through, and Shenxu acted as if nothing had happened.
He turned around and sat down next to the stove to eat meat and drink wine!
Looking at the rambling Shen Xu, Chu Chen thought to himself, "Damn, I keep running into people with split personalities."
A short while later, Shenxu downed a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor), and then, without warning, collapsed to the ground, snoring loudly...
Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed Leng Shuang who was still eating meat, and walked out of the house!
"Tell me, who is he?"
"He's suffering from mental deficiency, no, kidney deficiency... Hahaha!"
“You know that’s not what I’m asking. Why have you come here all these years? I’ve been to the snow-capped mountains, but I’ve never found you.”
Seeing Chu Chen's serious expression, Leng Shuang also stopped smiling.
Then, she earnestly took Chu Chen's hand and said, "Come on, I'll take you over there to have a look!"
Chu Chen nodded and followed his footsteps forward.
Soon after, they arrived at a huge black rock, and the two sat down on the rock, shoulder to shoulder.
Looking towards the distant sea, Leng Shuang began to recount her experiences over the past ten years.
It turns out that she had been to the snow-capped mountains, which was the hometown of her aunt.
However, after arriving at the snow mountain, he discovered that he was already deeply poisoned, and even Mo Yun was helpless against him.
So, after her persistent pleas, Mo Yun pointed her in the right direction.
In the center of the East Sea, there is a great being known as Shenxu. Perhaps he has a way to remove the poison from her body.
But this person has a strange temper and is not easy to get along with, so Leng Shuang was sent to try her luck!
After thanking Mo Yun, Leng Shuang embarked on her journey across the ocean.
Without advanced, large ships, the journey was fraught with peril.
Like Chu Chen, she hired a large group of people and sailed a large ship to this place, where she also encountered a storm.
As a result, the entire ship was destroyed in an instant, but Leng Shuang managed to struggle for a while because of her own strength.
Later, a giant black snake saved her and brought her to this island.
Unexpectedly, by a twist of fate, I actually met Shenxu.
Shenxu immediately noticed the poison on Leng Shuang's body, a result of her long-term forced enhancement of her strength.
So he asked, "You're a young girl, your bone age isn't that old, why are you forcibly increasing your strength like this?"
Upon seeing this, Leng Shuang immediately understood her identity and knelt down, pleading, "Senior Shenxu, please save me!"
"Saving you is not difficult. You come from the Great Xia?"
“No, I come from Kazakhstan.” Then, Leng Shuang told Shen Xu about her experiences over the years.
Unexpectedly, Shenxu, perhaps tired of being alone on the island all year round, readily agreed.
Furthermore, seeing that Leng Shuang was a natural talent for martial arts training, he not only helped her remove the poison from her body, but also instantly boosted her strength by a significant margin.
Having spent so much time together, Shenxu had come to regard Leng Shuang as his granddaughter.
Cold Frost was also well-behaved, washing clothes, cooking, and taking care of Shenxu on the island every day.
And so, the old man and the young man lived a simple life on this island.
Originally, Leng Shuang was tired of everything in the world and planned to end her life like this, but she didn't expect to see that big transport ship that day and see Chu Chen.
It stirred a ripple in her long-dormant heart!
"Chu Chen, when will you leave? Let's go back to Great Xia together!"
On the large rock, Leng Shuang leaned against Chu Chen and asked leisurely.
"Ah... what about the Taoist priest?"
Little did they know, inside the room at that moment, Shenxu was leisurely taking a sip of tea from a bamboo cup: "Hehe, this kid is quite amazing, he actually possesses the power to manipulate space."
"It's been so many years since I've seen someone like this. If his character is decent, he could be trained."
"But what the hell is it that you came here and immediately tried to kidnap my granddaughter?"
He then appeared behind the two of them in a flash: "You brat, I've raised you with such care for so long, and you want to abandon your grandfather?"
Chu Chen and Leng Shuang were startled by the sudden sound.
The two immediately separated and bowed to Shenxu behind them, saying, "Greetings, Daoist Master. You're not drunk?"
"Well, I was a little drunk. Your wine is good, but it only has this much effect on me."
After saying that, he stepped forward and grabbed Chu Chen: "Kid, come on, I'll take you fishing..."
