Chapter 72: It's All in the Wine!
This celebration banquet lasted from Lu Jiu's work until late at night, and when he pushed the cup and changed the lamp, Lu Jiu also learned a lot of information.
The qi-level demon blood entrusted to Zhou Chaolin to purchase had eyebrows, but there were not many of them, and they were all first-class ordinary demon beasts of the Thornback Pig, which made Lu Jiu somewhat glad that he had not continued to wait for the reply of the Qinglan Demon Hunting Team before.
As for the attack on the Demon Hunter Guild's station, I checked it back and forth several times, but still found nothing, and the broken data room was checked and nothing was missing, and the rest of the guild was intact, as if the intruders had put so much effort into this database just to go around.
Lu Jiu also wanted to take this opportunity to inquire about the situation in the Lianfeng Mountain Range, but after drinking half a jar of wine, his mind began to dizzy, and he asked the shopkeeper who came to serve the dishes to know that this was the wine that Drunken Xianlou relied on to become famous, and the immortals were drunk.
Originally, he planned to stop there, but seeing Zhou Chaolin and the others eating meat and drinking in a big bowl, Lu Jiu, who was already a little drunk, also had a hot brain, grabbed the wine jar on the table, and temporarily left everything behind, intending to indulge.
At least tonight, he's going to get drunk and not go home.
So when he left the Drunken Immortal Tower, the whole person walked flutteringly.
Fortunately, he didn't completely lose his mind, and he knew where his home was, so he asked the shopkeeper of the restaurant to help him call a rickshaw driver to send him back.
"Today there are only remnants of the shell...... Welcome the glorious years ~ Hiccup ~ Hold on to freedom in the wind and rain ~"
"After a lifetime of hesitant struggle~Hiccup~Self-confidence can change the future...... Ask who can do it~"
Collapsed in the car and howled all the way in a strange tone, and finally arrived at the door of the house, swaying towards his door full of alcohol in the "disdainful" gaze of the coachman.
Unexpectedly, outside the gate of the Lu family's ancestral house, there was an old man with a square box in his hand and gray temples, and the first time he saw him, Lu Jiu's eyes full of chaos because of the alcohol immediately brightened, and he stepped forward quickly.
"Master Lu, your medicine has been made, I waited for you in the store for a long time and didn't see anyone, so I sent the medicine to the address you left before. ”
Picking up Lu Jiu, who seemed to be able to fall down at any time, the old man stuffed the medicine box into his hand.
In order to ensure that he could get the Miao Dan as soon as possible, Lu Jiu gave the old man a reward of 2 silver dollars earlier, and even told him his address.
"Thank you, brother!
Lu Jiu took the box, patted the old man's shoulder and laughed.
"Then I'll go...... Are you going to eat at this time?"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, he was about to turn around, when he saw Lu Jiu lift the lid of the box, twisting a dark red pill in his right hand.
"Of course, I've been waiting for it for so long, how can I waste any more time, besides, there are no requirements for taking this pill, can I take it at any time, right?"
Lu Jiu, who was in a drunken state, was not too refreshing, and as he spoke, he threw Miao Dan directly into his mouth as if he were eating peanuts, chewed it twice and swallowed it directly, and then waved goodbye to the old man and walked into the house with a swagger.
The old man outside the door could only stare at the reclosed door, and it was not long before he heard singing from inside, only this time in a different tone.
"Forgive me for being uninhibited and indulgent in my life, loving freedom~"
"I'm afraid I'll fall one day~Oops~"
This is someone who fell in the yard in the middle of singing.
......
As the saying goes, where you fall, lie down.
Lying on his back in the courtyard, Lu Jiu did not fall asleep, looking at the night sky above his head, he was silent for a while.
The mist spewed out from the factory chimney obscured the stars, and only a bright moon loomed in the middle, no matter how many times he looked at it, such a night sky still made Lu Jiu feel unfamiliar.
After about five minutes, Lu Jiu tugged at the collar of his clothes, and suddenly he was a little glad that he had drunk a lot of wine, because the alcohol suppressed his pain to a very low level.
Lu Jiu didn't know if it was because of the demon blood or because of Miao Dan itself.
Now he is like a boiled crayfish, not to mention the redness all over his body, the bursting blood vessels up and down his body make him look extremely hideous, and the state of blood in his body is even more manic than any time he has ever experienced before!
The burning pain spread almost all over every inch of Lu Jiu's body, and soon even the anesthesia of the wine could not suppress this pain, in order not to attract the attention of the surrounding residents, Lu Jiu had to grit his teeth and twist around the yard with his body bowed.
The Cold Feather Falcon hovered over the courtyard, hissing angrily for a moment.
There was no doubt that it hated the blood of demons, and Lu Jiu's act of eating the Miao Dan containing the blood of demons completely offended it.
In return, it sparked an unprecedented bloodline riot.
If it were another demon vein, the bloodline in his body would probably have collapsed long ago, but Lu Jiu was not only able to look at the Cold Feather Falcon on the premise of maintaining his sanity at this time, but even had the strength to compare his middle finger to it.
This is my body, what does it matter to you?
Dare to be so arrogant, Lu Jiu naturally has to rely on it.
The dark golden heart manifested beneath the Cold Feather Falcon, and the unobscured part of the shadow had been activated to the limit, and the illusory white mist continued to rise, enveloping it.
The bloodline of the riot was strongly suppressed, and what followed was a trance that suddenly appeared in Lu Jiu's mind.
First, a fragrant roe deer with brown hair appeared in the void in front of him, pacing back and forth with his tail flicking, and then it expanded like a blow, transforming into the terrifying demon that Lu Jiu had seen in the miasma roaring wildly, and finally turned into countless points of light, floating in the night sky.
Suddenly, Lu Jiu felt that he was breathing......
This should have been a normal thing, but at this time, Lu Jiu clearly sensed the airflow in and out of his nostrils and mouth during breathing.
The difference between the two is like a person waving in air and water, and the latter can clearly feel what he bumps into when he waves.
At first, this feeling made Lu Jiu quite uncomfortable, and he even had some difficulty breathing for a while.
Over time, however, he could feel his body adapting to the change at breakneck speed.
This is an extremely peculiar feeling, Lu Jiu knows that the evolution gene contained in the demon blood is being integrated into his own bloodline, and with the help of Miao Dan, the bloodline evolution that should only appear in the final stage of spiritual awakening is already in progress!
All he had to do now was wait for the process to be completed.
I don't know how long it took, the pain in various parts of his body gradually lessened over time, Lu Jiu stood up and patted the dust on the back of his buttocks.
Carrying the box presented by the Qinglan Demon Hunting Team in his hand, he walked towards the house with his head up, and when he reached the staircase, he suddenly stopped again, and muttered: "I am a cultivator now...... Isn't it better to stay up all night tonight, hiccup~"
It's June 23, and there are only two days left before the Zhengyang Festival.
The holiday at Yunling Newspaper will begin tomorrow evening.
