Chapter 22: Meet Again
"Cheng Lin, you ......"
Sun Xiao opened his mouth, surprised.
A pair of eyes couldn't help but fix on the Zhu Guo, and couldn't take their eyes off it.
"Actually, there are two fruits, I ate one, and there is one left, so give it to you." Cheng Lin said with a smile.
"Give it to me?"
Sun Xiao had a look of disbelief on his face, and after a moment, he tried to look away and shook his head again and again.
"You found it, I can't take it."
"What's not to take? It's not just a fruit. ”
"No!" Sun Xiao said, "Cheng Lin, you may not know much about the current market situation, looking at the whole country, there are also a number of spiritual lands that have been discovered, and there are even fewer wild spiritual plants produced.
Most of these are monopolized by the government, and only a small number appear in the market.
Each one of them is sky-high! Even if it has a slight effect, it can be fried to a price of hundreds of thousands.
Not to mention this kind of awakening that can help people awaken! If you take it out, you might be able to sell it for millions, it's too precious, I definitely can't take it, you put it away. ”
Cheng Lin smiled, he really didn't know much about the news, but even if he knew its price, he still didn't withdraw his hand.
just said indifferently: "Maybe, but I'm not short of money, seeing that it's getting dark, and it's more dangerous to continue, you can take it." ”
Sun Xiao still refused.
Cheng Lin thought for a while and said seriously: "Actually, it may not be a good thing for me to hold it, if it is really as precious as you say, I can't keep it, and the husband is not guilty of it, but it will be easy to cause trouble when the time comes." ”
After a pause, he continued: "We came to this valley together, and there happened to be two fruits growing on that spirit plant, and this is the will of heaven.
Again...... I don't know what the world of practitioners is like, but I heard that it is not easy to be comfortable, and they also have to face dangers.
If you eat it, we can also have a companion, and we will have a care in the future.
Not really...... You borrowed it from me, and when you become a cultivator in the future, you will definitely have the opportunity to get in touch with good things again, and you will pay me back when the time comes. ”
After that, he stuffed the Zhu Guo into Sun Xiao's hand.
Then he stared at Sun Xiao.
Cheng Lin's decision can be regarded as a temporary idea.
But not on the spur of the moment.
His friendship with Sun Xiao is not so deep that he will give away this kind of thing at will.
But Cheng Lin did it anyway.
The main reason is like what he said.
He felt that Sun Xiao was worth investing in.
Cheng Lin didn't know how far the cultivation world of the entire world had developed now.
But he knows that there will also be contradictions, factions, conflicts of interests, and even dangers in that world.
Just like the leader of the Nine Divisions and Eight Groups, Shi Jin, who is also a cultivator, doesn't he still have to fight those loose cultivators and arrest criminals?
Therefore, from the perspective of interests, if you can have a more reassuring person around, you can always take care of it.
And along the way, Cheng Lin felt that Sun Xiao was not bad.
Seeing interests but still guarding the bottom line, it is worth befriending.
Of course, after seeing people's hearts for a long time, how to get along in the end still needs to get along later.
However, at the very least, at the moment, Cheng Lin feels that this person can be delivered.
Although Zhu Guo is precious to others, it is of little use to Cheng Lin himself.
A person can only eat one, and eating it by himself has no effect.
It's too hard to sell for money or something, and he doesn't value it very much.
The most important thing is that Cheng Lin has the ability to deduce civilization, and he is still in a very superficial stage of utilization.
After a few more deductions, with experience, Cheng Lin felt that he would never lack resources in the future.
If nothing else, let's just say that if he was willing to stay in the deduction for a while before, scavenge the entire mountain resources, and hide them in the valley, then he could easily get rich.
The above are the main reasons.
If I had to say that there was any other reason...... Probably, probably, maybe......
Was it the inadvertent warmth that Sun Xiao showed when he mentioned his sister before that moved him?
"Impossible, how could I be impressed by such a thing."
Cheng Lin shook his head and laughed at himself.
Due to family reasons, he has always scoffed at the ethereal thing of family warmth.
……
Sun Xiao's mouth opened, and after a while, he exhaled heavily.
Extremely serious, he said, "I...... I will pay you back twice as much in the future! ”
"Okay, you hurry up and eat, the movement here is a bit big just now, it may attract danger, and it is safest to eat it directly." Cheng Lin smiled faintly and said.
Sun Xiao nodded vigorously, he held Zhu Guo tightly, breathing rapidly, obviously nervous.
After thinking about it, he learned to meditate as a Taoist priest in situ, and then closed his eyes and swallowed Zhu Guo in one gulp.
Cheng Lin took a few steps back and looked at him with curiosity.
He wondered what it was like when he woke up.
Moreover, there seems to be something wrong with his awakening, which is a little different from what is said on the Internet.
He wanted to see what Sun Xiao would be like after awakening, whether he would be the same as himself, or would he be able to automatically obtain an ability like other cultivators?
"Whew~"
During his gaze, Sun Xiao first exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
Then he also closed his eyes tightly, his eyebrows were tightened on his face, and his expression was struggling, as if he was in pain.
A moment later, Cheng Lin vaguely heard a faint popping sound coming from Sun Xiao's body.
At the same time, he saw that the "aura light bands" that were flying around the heavens and the earth had changed.
began to rush towards Sun Xiao like moths to the fire.
Those colorful bands of aura light collided with his body, and then disappeared, as if absorbed.
Then Sun Xiao's face was even more painful.
"This pain should be caused by Reiki transforming the body."
Cheng Lin thought secretly based on his own experience.
After another moment, the speed of aura absorption slowed down, as if the pond had been filled and the water would no longer pour in.
Suddenly, the aura accumulated in Sun Xiao's body seemed to have reached the rated value.
Just listen to the boom!
A large cloud of earthy yellow light erupted from Sun Xiao's dantian, enveloping his whole person.
"Huh?"
Cheng Lin thought it was a golden light at first, but after a closer look, he found that it was earthy yellow, which was very close to the color of a certain element in the aura.
Next, I saw that the earthy yellow glow was constantly flickering, alternating in turns, and the expression on Sun Xiao's face gradually calmed down, and finally became peaceful.
Then, the earthy glow suddenly closed and vanished, and everything returned to normal.
"Is this the end?"
Cheng Lin wondered.
This seems to be very different from his own, although Cheng Lin's senses were closed when he awakened, he knew through his skin that his awakening had triggered a huge wind, and when he looked at his body, there were also brilliant golden rays flashing.
The golden color was very different from the aura element in the air.
I'm thinking about it.
I saw Sun Xiao open his eyes suddenly.
"Bang!"
His arms shook, and there was a faint explosion in the air.
Immediately, I saw Sun Xiao jump up, and his hands seemed to instinctively cross and close in front of him.
Then an earthy yellow glow automatically appeared around him, faintly condensing into a shield-like shape.
Sun Xiao was stunned, his hands parted, and the earthy yellow light shield suddenly dispersed and disappeared.
"This ...... Is this a talent ability? ”
Sun Xiao looked at his hands in surprise, and then looked at the world with a gaze full of novelty just like Cheng Lin had awakened.
When he retracted his gaze, he completely came back to his senses, looked at Cheng Lin, and said with surprise and excitement on his face: "Cheng Lin! I seem to have succeeded...... I...... I'm awakened too! ”
Cheng Lin smiled and congratulated: "Congratulations." ”
"Rejoice and rejoice! Thanks to you! ”
Sun Xiao has always fantasized about being able to enter the threshold of cultivation for half a year, and now he has finally got what he wants, and a depression in his heart instantly dissipated.
The whole person's mental outlook has changed, and the excitement is beyond words.
He was about to say something more happily, but suddenly, he saw Cheng Lin's face change!
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Lin's ears moved slightly, and after a while, he looked at Taniguchi and said, "It seems that something is coming this way, and there is a sound of shouting for help!" ”
"What?"
"Let's go over and see."
"Good!"
Both of them had just woken up, and their bodies and spirits were at their peak, and when they heard the sound, they put on their backpacks and strode towards Taniguchi.
It didn't take long for me to come to the valley.
At this time, the voice was already close, and only the sound of fierce beasts running was heard, and the roars of miscellaneous beasts and the shouts of people for help were chaotic.
The two of them looked side by side vigilantly ahead, and after a few breaths, they saw several figures stumbling out of the mountain forest.
While running, he shouted for help in a mournful voice.
After awakening, Sun Xiao's eyesight also improved, he took a closer look, and was stunned: "It's Zhao Ye and them?" ”
Cheng Lin nodded, a little surprised.
I didn't expect these people to be able to run here.
"It's them, yes, but there seem to be only three of them."
Cheng Lin said.
When they separated, Zhao Ye and his friends were a total of five people, but now, there were only three people running over.
"Two less? Is it separated, or is it ......" Sun Xiao's eyes changed.
At this time, Zhao Ye, who was running for his life, also saw Cheng Lin and the others.
Suddenly, like a drowning man, he grabbed the last straw and hurriedly ran to this side, shouting as he ran:
"Sun Xiao? Come and save us! ”
"It's Cheng Lin and them, run to them!"
"There's a big tiger chasing us behind! Help ......"
The three of them shouted and ran in this direction.
Sun Xiao's face immediately changed, although he had awakened, he had not yet mastered how to use the aura, and that talent ability was not very useful, and now he was stronger than ordinary people, not to mention dealing with foreign beasts, even if it was enough to face ordinary tigers.
"What should I do?"
He subconsciously looked at Cheng Lin and asked.
Cheng Lin stood in place, his demeanor changed, it is said that he is not as good as Sun Xiao, Sun Xiao has awakened his ability, although he has awakened, but I don't know why he doesn't even have the ability.
Fighting against alien beasts is purely looking for death.
As for saving people or something......
Hehe, don't make a fuss!
Since he didn't plan to save people, what else did he hesitate about?
"Do you want to save people?" Sun Xiao couldn't help but ask.
Cheng Lin shook his head, his face became more and more strange, of course he would not be stupid enough to act as a hero.
Mainly, this is the exceptionally familiar roar of the beast...... Something reminded him.
The other side.
Seeing that the two of them didn't move, but the roar behind them was getting closer and closer, the three of Zhao Ye, who were extremely embarrassed, suddenly panicked.
"Sun Xiao! Cheng Lin! What are you doing standing? ”
"It's coming! I can't run! Come and save me! ”
"I can't run anymore! Cheng Lin! As long as you save me, this spirit plant will be given to you! ”
In a hurry, Zhao Ye reached out and grabbed the Shennong grass from his clothes, waved it and shouted.
At the same time, Cheng Lin also clearly saw that behind them.
In the dense bushes, a tiger as large as a cow leaped out.
It had a pair of blood-emitting eyes and a coat of crimson fur, but there seemed to be some wound marks on the fur that had not completely disappeared.
It jumped out, not in a hurry, but looked at Zhao Ye and the three of them with some teasing.
Then his gaze subconsciously swept over them, looking at the two figures standing at Taniguchi.
The skinniest of them, to be exact.
And then......
The playful abuse in the eyes of this red flame tiger disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, Cheng Lin's face also showed a smile when he saw his old friend.
