Chapter Ninety-Eight: Return the Book
Wu Zhizai stretched out his left hand sharply and pushed the two of them out. The two of them slammed on the ground before they came to their senses. Su Xiaowen covered his arm for the first time, and his facial features were squeezed together, showing great pain.
Wu Zhizai was engrossed in controlling the water spirit, and slowly flowed the water spirit out of the range of the method of locking the spirit, allowing it to slowly dissipate. This process took a long time, until the view of the sky dimmed a little.
This process took a long time, until the view of the sky dimmed a little.
After the water spirit dissipated, Wu Zhizai propped his hands on the ground and panted. Just now he was going to lock up the spiritual spells of the two people, which was too heavy for his physical burden. At the same time, he was also very happy in his heart, it seemed that the two of them had made a lot of progress, and their spiritual power could be so strong.
Lan Ruo walked over, squatted beside Wu Zhizai, and said with concern: "Xiao Zai, how are you?"
Wu Zhizai shook his head, "It's okay, it's just too tired." ”
Lan Ruo said: "It's okay if you're fine." But the injury on Brother Xiaowen's hand has worsened, and I don't know what's going on. ”
Wu Zhizai raised his head, only to find that Lan Ruo was in the form of a mermaid, and one hand was controlling the water spirit method to heal Su Xiaowen's injuries. Wu Zhizai couldn't care about his whole body being tired, and walked to Su Xiaowen's side, but now that Su Xiaowen was in the water, even if he spoke, he couldn't hear clearly.
After Su Xiaowen's brows expanded, Lan Ruo dispersed the water spirit method. Wu Zhizai said: "Brother Xiaowen, what's going on, why is your injury getting worse?"
Su Xiaowen said: "I just felt that my strength had increased a lot, and then I felt that my body was expanding, and my arm was in sharp pain. It felt like my arm was broken again. ”
An Youming said: "It seems that it is the expansion of strength, which causes the body to be unable to absorb it." The body began to swell, and the strength leaked out, which was equivalent to being attacked by someone with a spiritual method for Su Xiaowen's injury. It seems that it is not appropriate to improve Su Xiaowen's spiritual power now, so let's wait until he is healed. ”
Wu Zhizai asked Lan Ruo, "Then Sister Lan Ruo, is there anything uncomfortable about you?"
Lan Ruo took a deep breath, spit it out again, and said, "I also feel the same way as Brother Xiaowen. I also felt my body expand, as if something was going to stretch my body apart, and it was very uncomfortable. But when I came back to my senses, that feeling was gone. ”
It seems that the improvement of strength should be done gradually, not overnight.
For a long time in the future, Wu Zhizai improved Lan Ruo's spiritual power every day, and improved a little bit every day. As for Su Xiaowen, he is injured now, so let's wait for his arm to heal.
On weekdays, Wu Zhizai rarely goes out and walks around, and he saw the curious eyes of the shopkeeper, as well as the expression that wanted to speak and stopped. Wu Zhizai had already guessed what they would think in their hearts, and he didn't care about it at all. Every time the shopkeeper came over, he would smile.
The shopkeeper was very strange, why these three people had been hiding in the inn, not coming out and walking around, not having to do business, and still having money to spend.
It's not that he didn't think about what kind of wanted criminals they were, so he also paid special attention to whether there were any of them in the wanted notices posted on the street. As a result, it took a long time for him to feel stupid, but just a few children, what could he do. I'm afraid that if they are asked to kill someone, they will not be able to kill them.
For thinking about them like this, the shopkeeper was a little reluctant to go, so when he served them, he had a little more smiles.
The shopkeeper was curious about the origins of the three of them, so sometimes, he would smile and take the initiative to chat with the child. But the child just had a smiling face, and no matter what he said, the child just had a smiling face. Sometimes they nod their heads, and sometimes they say something of their own.
But when it comes to the child, the child will smile. The most infuriating thing is that the child actually smiled and said, "Guess?"
It's as playful as a little woman. The shopkeeper thought to himself, how can I guess this, if I can guess it, I will ask you.
When you meet someone you don't know, you always ask where you are from and where you come from, and you want to get to know each other. In the past, when Wu Zhizai was studying in another world, sometimes new classmates would come to the class, and when he chatted with each other, he would ask him like this.
After living in a poor area for a long time, Wu Zhizai found that this place was more like the Third World, a wild world without law. Wu Zhizai believes that there is still a law in the poor area. However, these laws are not the laws of the government, but the laws of the gang leaders who are in charge of the area.
In fact, these laws are also very simple, pay protection money on time, and don't rebel against the people in the gang. As for the rest, it doesn't matter how you fight in the poor area. However, these fights are limited to people in this poor area. If someone from outside comes here to make trouble, the local gang will definitely not sit idly by.
Seeing this situation, Wu Zhizai thought to himself, how can those orphans survive in such a place.
Wu Zhizai was angry that the government allowed such a place to exist. But it's just angry, Wu Zhizai has adapted to the difference between the noble and the low in this world.
The few books that were stolen on the Taishou Mansion before, except for the book "Gods and Demons", which are useful, the other three books are of little use. So Wu Zhizai quietly returned the four books, after all, he borrowed books, not stolen them. This time it was very simple to return the book, Wu Zhizai directly threw the book in the open space of the Taishou Mansion.
After Wu Zhizai returned the book, it was like throwing a boulder into a calm lake. Qicheng once again talked about Wu Zhizai's return of the book, and people were puzzled, why did this person do this.
Wu Zhizai and Lan Ruo sat in the hall downstairs drinking tea and quietly listening to their discussions. The content of the discussion is nothing more than why the book should be returned. Wu Zhizai felt funny when he saw the way they were arguing.
When the shopkeeper came over with a meal, he chatted with Wu Zhizai as usual, "I don't know what the thief thinks in his heart, he went to the Taishou Lord's house, and he just stole a few books." ”
Wu Zhizai said: "Maybe, he just thinks it's fun." ”
Dian Xiaoer agreed with this, "What you said makes sense, those people with strong spiritual power can naturally do whatever they want." ”
The weather is gradually getting warmer, and the silver taels in Wu Zhizai's hands are slowly decreasing. Wu Zhizai found that Lan Ruo was in a good mood recently, and Wu Zhizai thought that this had something to do with him. Lan Ruo left his hometown and his people, and now he is in a better mood, which is a good thing. But at the same time, there are many fewer pearls. Lan Ruo knew that it was the time to flee, and she herself was the only source of income. Wu Zhizai expressed euphemistically before, hoping that she could prepare more pearls. Therefore, Lan Ruo has always consciously "produced" pearls, and in the past few months, they have been able to live without worry.
Although it is said that Lan Ruo is a mermaid spirit royal family, the pearls that can be condensed from tears are no different from ordinary pearls, and the price is naturally not high.
Usually, Wu Zhizai doesn't have any other big expenses, just three meals on weekdays, room fees and occasional tips for the second child of the shop. Each of these three expenses is indispensable. In a place like a poor area, it is very necessary to reward the shopkeeper, which can get a smiling face from the shopkeeper, and relatively good service, as well as unnecessary trouble.
Wu Zhizai remembered that when he was studying in another world, his pocket money was always not enough. The feeling of not having enough money to spend is really uncomfortable.
Regarding the matter of using Lan Ruo as a cash cow, in fact, he didn't want to do this. Because of the bad luck of the Lan Ruo clan, it is also because of this. Wu Zhizai thought about stealing money and stealing money from gangs.
This idea only existed in Wu Zhizai's mind for a moment, and was vetoed by Wu Zhizai. He had thought this before, in fact, it was always in his head. It's not that he can't do it, but if they find out, they will have to leave, and Wu Zhizai feels that there is no need for this.
The expression on Wu Zhizai's face all fell in Lan Ruo's eyes. Lan Ruo also knew that he had fewer pearls this time, so he said, "Xiao Zai, I'll condense more pearls next time." ”
"Sister Lan Ruo......"
Wu Zhizai didn't know what to say. Thinking of Lan Ruo's smiling face before, Wu Zhizai really didn't want her to cry alone. That thought resurfaced, and was immediately pressed down by Wu Zhizai.
There was nothing special to do on weekdays, except for three meals a day, the rest of the time they stayed in the room. During this time, Wu Zhizai improved Lan Ruo's spiritual power, while Lan Ruo helped Su Xiaowen heal his injuries.
Since Wu Zhizai noticed the curious expression of the shopkeeper, he felt that it was necessary for the three of them to leave the inn for a while and come back after dark.
The three of them walked on the road and found that some men on the road would look at them with extremely obscene eyes. And these obscene gazes were all aimed at Lan Ruo.
Wu Zhizai sighed, the people of the Shark Ling Imperial Family are extremely beautiful, even if Lan Ruo is wearing extremely ordinary clothes now, and even some shabby clothes, it can't cover the beautiful temperament of Lan Ruo's body, which does not eat the fireworks of the world.
That kind of gaze, Lan Ruo also felt it. She frowned, she didn't like it very much.
