Chapter 7: The Tragic Beauty

After being hit by Xiao Qi, I immediately picked up the bathrobe that was thrown on the ground, put it on, and then walked to the big bed and fell asleep, I don't know how long I slept, until the little guy in the inn knocked on the door and asked me what I wanted to eat for dinner, whether I wanted to send the room to eat and so on, and woke me up.

I casually ordered three dishes and a soup and ate it after I was bored and took out the yellow-level best sword duel from the system storage space to come to the understanding, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, I was deeply attracted by it at a glance, this sword duel is divided into two parts, the sword duel is composed of words and drawings, and the heart duel is to be used with the sword move, I took out the Hongyuan sword and tried the first layer of this line of flowing water sword duel entry, with the sword move and the heart duel, a sword in the air actually divided the dining table three or four meters away from me into two! I looked at the mirror-like incision on the dining table in a daze, and I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time, who am I?

"Cut~~~ What's so proud! It's really not ashamed that the cultivation of the foundation building period actually makes you so carried away just by splitting a table in half! Other monks who major in sword dueling can split the sword qi in the air during the qi cultivation period! What is there to be proud of you being a monk in the foundation building period can split the sword qi? Moreover, you should feel even more ashamed to use a superb magic weapon to do it! Hmph! The face of the system has been lost by you!" Xiao Qi despised me with disgust, but what I didn't know was how exaggerated the unbelievable expression on her little white and red face was at this moment, it was unbelievable that a person could comprehend and use the ground-level superb sword duel in such a short time! Although it was the first level of entry, even a monk with extremely profound attainments in kendo could not comprehend it in such a short period of time, let alone use it!

"Uh~~~ Can you use your sword to slash out sword qi during the qi training period?" I wilted again in an instant, one second I thought I was invincible in the world, but the next second I knew that I was so hungry, that feeling was really fucked!

I sat back on the bed with a black line, put the Hongyuan Sword back in the system storage space, and continued to sit cross-legged on the bed............

Seven days have passed unconsciously, and in addition to eating, bathing, and going to the toilet, all the other time has been spent on the Sword Battle! During this period, I have gone from the first level of the entry level to the eighth layer of the Great Perfection, and I have also deduced the ninth layer by myself! That is, the self-created layer, this layer is somewhat special, it takes a lot of aura to use, but its power and attack range are more powerful than the waterfall of the eighth layer! Even with the aura storage capacity of my dantian, it can only be used twice, and after two times, it will be completely exhausted, which can be regarded as a trick to press the bottom of the box!

Xiao Qi also greatly appreciated my ability to create a layer of sword duels by myself, which was a world of difference from my previous attitude of constantly despising me!

I took off my bathrobe, changed into the shirt and big pants, and went to the inn counter to settle the bill, and after leaving the inn, I went straight to the silk shop, today is the time for delivery, and after taking the clothes, I have to hurry to Phoenix, otherwise I will not be able to meet the deadline for registration.

"Shopkeeper, are the clothes ready?" I asked the busy silk shop owner as soon as I entered the silk shop, and I saw that he was sweating profusely and a group of aunts were embroidering patterns in full swing.

"Guest, you're here, come on, please take a seat, I'll pour you a cup of tea first......

"No, what's the matter? I see that the clothes you made for me don't seem to be finished yet, but our contract clearly states that within seven days, you also know that I am in a hurry, now this ........."

"Please forgive Childe, it is all because of my personal reasons that the construction period will be delayed, and please ask Childe to punish me alone. Before I could finish my sentence, a young woman in a cloth dress put down the needlework in her hand in a panic and walked over, and knelt directly in front of me, which really startled me.

"Hey~~~ Xuelian, why are you doing this......" The shopkeeper looked at the young woman kneeling on the ground and sighed, but he didn't help her up, but turned to me and said, "Can the guest officer take a step to speak?"

"Hmm~~~ You get up first! "I lifted the young woman who was kneeling on the ground, and when I saw her closely, I was struck by her beauty, except for the sadness on her face and the dark circles under her eyes, it was a beautiful fairy in a picture!

"Ahem! The guest officer is here, please ...... "I was so fascinated by this woman that I almost lost my mind! If it weren't for the shopkeeper's reminder, maybe I would have been holding someone's arm and staring at them.........

“......... Here it is!" I fled with the shopkeeper out of the hall and into the living room, and when I entered the door, the shopkeeper closed the door, and my restless heart calmed down.

"But the guest officer thinks that woman is like a fairy in the picture, isn't it very fascinating?" The shopkeeper said to me in a daze, and directly asked me in confusion.

......... "I didn't answer the shopkeeper's words, and I didn't know what to say, I was only 16 years old, why did I have this reaction? And it's the kind that is not controlled? Am I the kind of scumbag who can't take his eyes off when he sees a beautiful woman? No way!

"Hehe, I'm not afraid of your jokes, there is not a man in our town who is not bewitched by her appearance, even I love that woman very much, but it's a pity! I don't want to die now, and the fierce lady in the family won't allow me to take a concubine, otherwise............ Hey, hey, hey. ”

"What does this have to do with whether you want to die or not?" The shopkeeper's words made me more and more confused, is there any cause and effect in it?

"To tell you the truth, the woman's name is Bai Xuelian, the daughter of the previous village chief of our town, and she was already famous when she was only fifteen years old, and the people who came to propose marriage at that time can be said to have lined up to get to Phoenix! Childhood sweetheart, that young man is also handsome, the two can be said to be the golden boy and girl, who wants to think that not long after the two got married, the son of the merchant is getting worse, for this reason the merchant spent a lot of money to visit the doctor, but without exception it has no effect, even the royal doctor can not do anything! According to the imperial doctor, Bai Xuelian has a pure yin constitution, and the cold poison in her body is extremely poisonous! The son of the merchant of goods is in harmony with Yin and Yang, and it is strange that he does not lose his life! The merchant of goods almost fainted to death in anger when he learned about it, and it turned out that the wife he had spent a lot of money to marry his precious son was actually a Kefu star! The merchant kept begging the imperial doctor to save his son, but the imperial doctor said that his son had been contaminated with too much cold poison, and even if the true immortal was alive, he would not be able to return to heaven! At the same time, the imperial doctor told the merchant that Bai Xuelian was pregnant, but due to her physique, she should not be pregnant with a man, otherwise she would have been stillborn! Five months later, on the day she gave birth to a baby girl, the merchant's son also passed away, and a few days later, on the day the merchant's son was buried, Bai Xuelian held the baby girl and the former mayor appeared at the funeral, and there was a fierce quarrel, the former mayor and the merchant also had a physical conflict, the mayor was too emotional and caused blood to flow backwards, and on the way to the hospital, he drove to the west, and the merchant felt guilty after learning about it, and hanged himself in a few daysLater, the newly transferred mayor closed the case on the grounds that both parties involved were dead, Bai Xuelian had no mother since she was a child, and the former mayor's mansion was also occupied by the newly arrived mayor, and she was homeless and could only live with her baby in the mountain temple outside the town, and the matter was not the worst, because in order to heal her dead husband, the merchant owed a large amount of foreign debt, and after the merchant committed suicide, his unconscionable mother-in-law collected all the family's savings overnight and then evaporated, and those creditors could only ask Bai Xuelian to collect debts, the reason was that the son of the merchant had never written a letter of resignation before he died, So from the law she is still the daughter-in-law of the merchant, Bai Xuelian could have refused to repay the debt, because she was expelled from the house by the merchant in front of everyone, so she can also be regarded as a person from a non-merchant family, but Bai Xuelian promised to repay the money, many people who look at her poor persuaded her to refuse, but she still insisted on repaying the debt, fortunately, those creditors still have some conscience, will occasionally find some work for her to do, and only take half of it as to pay the arrears, and the rest will still be given to her as living expenses, no, I am one of those creditors, Bai Xuelian She is ingenious, talented in embroideryA few days ago, she received the job I gave her and began to work day and night, but her four-year-old daughter suddenly had a high fever in the middle of the night, forcing her to stop working to take her daughter to see a doctor, which delayed the construction period, and asked the guest officer to forgive me!" I was stunned to listen to the silk shop shopkeeper narrating about Bai Xuelian's life experience, one couldn't hold back and almost shed tears, and quickly looked up at the roof............

"Shopkeeper, how much does she owe you creditors? I'll pay you back on her behalf!" I solemnly looked at the shopkeeper of the silk shop and said, "If nothing else, I should help her with Bai Xuelian's strength alone!" At least let their mother and daughter live a normal life for the rest of their lives.

"This ...... Are you sure? I know you're a rich man, but the debt she owes is so great that ordinary people can't afford to pay it off in their lifetime!"

"Sure, you say, how much money you owe. ”

"She has also repaid a lot in the past few years, but at most she can only pay off the interest, and the rest is about five medium-grade spirit jades!"

"Hmm......... Go and call all the creditors, and let them bring all the IOUs. ”

"Do you really want to pay off this huge debt for her!?"

"What? Don't you want to pay you back, and if you don't want her to pay it back, then I can't pay ......it back."

"It's not...... I didn't mean that, my family is still counting on improving the quality of life, if you pay me back for her, I'm too late to be happy!"

"Then why are you still standing here? Why don't you call all the creditors over. By the way, how much of my clothes are left unfinished?"

"Four of the five sets of clothes you ordered have been completed, and the remaining set is almost finished, and it is estimated that it will be ready by this evening. ”

"You don't have to do it, just bring it to me along with it, I'll give it to me, and tell them all to go back and rest!"

"This ......... Well, according to the guest officer. The shopkeeper of the silk shop walked out of the drawing-room, leaving me alone to knock on the table and ponder.
