Chapter 174: Suffering

Thinking about it this way, Xu Lianxiao can feel that Zhang Xiao's is not easy, some things are not easy to see with your own eyes, you can't empathize with the pain of the person concerned.

But after you have seen it with your own eyes, and after several comparisons, you can feel the difficulty of others, and Xu Lianxiao is like this now.

Usually, seeing Zhang Xiao's casual and indifferent look, she always thought that Zhang Xiao's cultivation path could only be regarded as a little difficult at most, but when she saw it today, she never thought that it would be so difficult.

Xu Lianxiao is a very sensible woman, a sensible woman knows how to save a little face for a man at a certain moment, so even if Xu Lianxiao has begun to turn over the river and the sea in her heart, she still can't see any other expressions on her face.

Because of the wide meridians, Zhang Xiao needed a larger amount of heaven and earth spiritual power than ordinary people when he was cultivating, so he consumed these thousand spirit stones more quickly than ordinary people.

Xu Lianxiao has always been very patient with Zhang Xiao, knowing that Zhang Xiao can't be distracted, she is very obediently sitting on the chair next to her and waiting.

After waiting for about two hours, Zhang Xiaofang put away his spiritual power and stood up from the ground, and after getting up, Zhang Xiao first collected the remnants of the spirit stones around him, which had completely devoid of the spiritual power of heaven and earth, into the space stone, and after doing all this skillfully, Zhang Xiaofang walked to Xu Lianxiao and sat down.

"Lian Xiao, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. After sitting down, Zhang Xiao said to Xu Lianxiao with some apologies.

He had thought that he would be able to completely absorb and consume the thousand spirit stones before dawn, but he didn't expect that it would be delayed for so long, if he had known about this situation earlier, he would have taken out the spirit stones at the beginning.

"It's okay, it's okay, Zhang Xiao, if the spirit stones are not enough, I still have some here, let's have a friend, you don't need to be polite." Xu Lian replied with a smile.

Women are soft-hearted creatures, and now that she sees Zhang Xiao's difficult way of cultivating, her heart is very soft under her already admiration.

"Lian Xiao, it's not that I don't accept your kindness, it's really because I still have a lot of spirit stones on my body now, and I can still last for a few days for the time being. ”

When Zhang Xiao heard Xu Lianxiao's words, he first waved his hand to refuse, and then found that it was not good to refuse directly, and then said: "Don't worry, I will naturally go to you when I am really cornered, and I hope you can help unceremoniously when the time comes." ”

For other people's kindness, you can open your mouth to refuse, but you must be tactful, and you can't give others the idea that you are sticking a cold ass on your hot face, otherwise who will help you in the future, which is something that everyone knows and does.

"Since you have said so, then my spirit stone will help you keep it first. Xu Lianxiao smiled disappreciatively, he had already expected Zhang Xiao's attitude, so there were not too many surprises.

"What next?" Xu Lianxiao saw that Zhang Xiao was speechless, and then continued to ask.

Hearing this, Zhang Xiao frowned and thought for a while before nodding and saying, "For the time being, that group of demon beasts should not attack the siege city in a short period of time, so the two of us can only continue to expand the scope of searching." ”

In the case of a large disparity in strength, it is never a good way to stand still, because it is impossible for others to stand still like you, and when the real army is overwhelming, it will be useless to think of some other methods.

Zhang Xiao now has this kind of awareness, so he knows that he can't stay in the city all the time now, otherwise, when all those demon beasts come over to attack the city together, in this Blackwater City, just according to the realm cultivation of him and Xu Lianxiao, he will definitely not be able to resist those demon beasts head-on.

"Okay, when are we going to go? Xu Lianxiao nodded and questioned, she had never refuted Zhang Xiao's suggestion, among which she believed that Zhang Xiao was a reason, and another reason was that Zhang Xiao's head had never been muddy, and her proposals had always been very normal and efficient.

"Let's go now, we don't know the habits of those demon beasts yet, and we don't know when they will gather in groups to attack and siege the city, so for now, we still need to expand the search area as soon as possible. Zhang Xiao explained.

After listening to Zhang Xiao's explanation, Xu Lianxiao didn't have any more questions, but stood up directly from the chair and said, "Since Zhang Xiao is like this, then we will continue to search according to yesterday's search method, and I will go over now." ”

"Okay, then we'll go together. ”

Zhang Xiao also stood up from the chair when he heard this, and said gratefully to Xu Lianxiao.

After getting along for a long time, Zhang Xiao and Xu Lianxiao have developed a tacit understanding, that is, after they have also identified one thing, there will be no hesitation in the next actions they make.

So after these words, the two of them quickly left the door and walked out towards the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and on the way, the two happened to meet Ouyang Luoshui, who wanted to ask about yesterday's battle.

Seeing Ouyang Luoshui's curious expression, Zhang Xiao did not relent, but directly reported what he and Xu Lianxiao were going to do next, and then left the City Lord's Mansion in a hurry.

After arriving at the South City Gate, Zhang Xiao noticed that the body of the python yesterday had disappeared, and the trees that had been broken off in their battle had also been cleared, and he secretly admired the efficiency of Blackwater City in his heart.

After admiring, Zhang Xiao began to continue the search, the search range yesterday was thirty miles, so today's search range should be added another thirty miles, set at the range of sixty miles.

Although he did not clearly discuss this with Xu Lianxiao, he was confident that Xu Lianxiao would also be able to know the scope of the next search, which was the tacit understanding between the two.

Before starting the search, Zhang Xiao also made some more reflections in his heart, and now Blackwater City is in a state where it will explode at any time.

Under such circumstances, he really couldn't waste time cultivating, so his own approach today was really a bit wrong, and the two hours wasted in vain might be enough for him to complete the search for another thirty miles outside of this black water formation, even if the search could not be completed, at least half of the distance was enough to complete the search.

After realizing his mistake, Zhang Xiao also made a comparison between improving his strength and solving the matter in front of him as soon as possible, and finally determined that he really shouldn't think about practicing at such a juncture.
