Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Powers of Ghosts
"This girl, when I had no money earlier, I was tired of going out to set up a stall all day long, but now that I have money, I said that I was bored and panicked, but it was difficult to serve......"
Qin Lu just complained, but Qin Baozhen, who was busy with her work over there, walked over with a hoe.
"Whew, I'm so tired...... Immortal, you dead girl, as soon as you turn your face, you will be gone, I will bite you to death!"
After enjoying a few days of young lady's life, Qin Baozhen found that her physical strength had deteriorated a lot, and the work that could be done by one person was too busy to help now.
What's even more infuriating is that halfway through, the helper she found sneaked away, and she turned over the rest of the land alone, and she was almost exhausted.
"Who made you nervous, a good garden has to grow vegetables, I also said to plant flowers for those two little guys to play......" Qin Lu looked at her sweaty sister and couldn't help but laugh.
"You don't need money to buy vegetables?!" Qin Baozhen immediately crossed his waist and said confidently: "The things in Chang'an are too expensive, and the rice at home can be bought for a bucket, and the ones here have risen to ten yuan, how can you do it if you don't save some money." ”
Qin Lu really wanted to say that his current monthly dividends in the liquor shop are several thousand taels, enough to buy hundreds of thousands of catties of rice, the kind that he can't eat for a lifetime. But before he could speak, Qin Baozhen had already begun to think about it in pieces.
"I thought about it, the backyard is so big, opening a small vegetable field can't take up much space, but planting vegetables is enough for our family ......"
Speaking of this, Qin Baozhen paused, snapped his fingers, and counted them one by one.
"One...... Two...... Three...... Four...... Five...... Six, yes, six people, enough for our family of six to eat. You can save a few hundred wen a month, it's a few taels a year, you calculate, you can add a few more clothes for the New Year, it's ......"
Six people, you don't take the ghost girl seriously!
Qin Lu couldn't cry or laugh, "If you want to add new clothes, I'll pull a few more pieces of cloth for you, and those who buckle the ropes are not afraid of other people's jokes, I brought you to Chang'an to enjoy happiness, and I didn't let you remember the bittersweet memories!"
"That's different!" Qin Baozhen raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "The money saved is more comfortable to spend, why doesn't my brother even understand this, this is a matter of principle!"
Qin Baozhen has a very strange obsession with the issue of silver, Qin Lu knows that she is a little money fan, so she simply doesn't talk about this issue, anyway, she has a share of money every month, it is estimated that after a long time, this habit will be full of change.
Qin Baozhen's garden renovation plan is still ongoing, just turning over the soil in the morning and sowing seeds in the afternoon. The little snake charm only knows how to be lazy to eat, so let her help, but I'm afraid that it will get more and more messy. Not surprisingly, Qin Baozhen paid attention to Fu Xian Xian again.
The mud on poor Fu Xianxian's body has not been washed yet, so where is he willing to dry it again. One of the two people begged, the other was tough, and Yingying Yanyan was so lively.
Qin Lu didn't take it long in the yard, drank a cup of tea, and then returned to the bedroom and took out the preserved Mithril stick again. There were some things he didn't make clear to Liang Yuan, but in fact, he also had some careful thoughts about leaving this stick.
"Girl, are you there?"
He shouted softly at the void, and after a while, a wriggling black shadow gradually appeared behind Qin Lu.
"Xiaobai fell asleep again, what happened inside, why do I feel like those two things are no longer moving?"
Qin Lu didn't reply, his fingers rubbed lightly on the Mithril long stick, he was waiting for the answer of the person behind him.
Li Xiangping's attitude was as cold as ever, even if she signed a summoning beast contract with Qin Lu by mistake, she was not as close to Qin Lu as other contractors.
If you have to say it, the ghost girl is more like a formalized program, Qin Lu summons her out, and then solves the trouble, and then hides back to the summoning beast space, and the communication between the two is even much less than that of Xiaobai, who can't speak.
"It's not asleep......"
After waiting for a while, an answer came from behind Qin Lu, Li Xiangping was floating in the air, staring at him without blinking, "That sea caterpillar has devoured the energy overflowing from the Seven Star Sword, it's just a little indigestion......"
Qin Lu frowned slightly, "Why is this happening, whether the energy is good or bad, can you also absorb it?"
"I can't answer this question...... Li Xiangping said lightly: "Of the many summoned beasts in your body, only one of them has the ability to absorb energy, I haven't tried it, and I can't be sure if it's good or bad." ”
Qin Lu's problem may also be unique in the world, no one can have as many summoned beasts as him, let alone a fantasy scene like a summoned beast having a problem, finding a second one to ask about the specific situation.
However, after listening to Li Xiangping's answer, Qin Lu was also somewhat relieved, Xiaobai was the only mutant among the summoned beasts he had, and since the first day, it was a little abnormal, and he was really worried that there would be an accident......
But Qin Lu felt a little puzzled...... What the hell is absorbing energy...... When did the sea caterpillar have this ability?
"Well~ I can't use it for the time being anyway, so let's sleep...... By the way, can you help me see again, does this thing in my hand have anything to do with the creatures in the Seven Star Sword?"
Qin Lu held the Mithril long stick and handed one of them to Li Xiangping's hand.
The strange wooden box in the Labyrinth of the East China Sea, the strange coffin on Qilin Mountain, and those who attacked him inexplicably, Qin Lu instinctively had an intuition, there must be some kind of connection between the three.
In fact, it was precisely for this reason that Qin Lu kept the stick.
The summoned beast of the ghost system, because it is originally a relationship between the spirit body, is very sensitive to the energy flowing in the world, coupled with Li Xiangping's own high rank, and his perception ability is even more powerful, asking his opinion may be more appropriate than asking Liang Yuan, who does not know the details.
Qin Lu thought so, and over there, Li Xiangping also silently took the Mithril long stick and put it in front of her to observe it carefully.
Liang Yuan's technique was not very delicate, at most it was a violent removal of the spell mark covering the long stick, but the traces of energy flow were still exposed in Li Xiangping's eyes.
In Li Xiangping's perception, the body of the stick was not as smooth and flat as Qin Lu saw. On the contrary, the body of the stick can be said to be very rough, with a large number of dense, hair-thin cracks engraved on the Mithril, like magnetic lines, forming many circles.
They are so small that they are difficult to discern to the naked eye, but they are surprisingly numerous, and their ends are closed, covering the ends of the sticks evenly, except in the middle, leaving a blank space like a drop of blood.
