Chapter 21: Rejection
It's still familiar air, dry and uncomfortable, and the smell of dust permeates the tip of the nose, so that the breath will always be lowered involuntarily.
But today seems to be a little different, I can't say it, at least Ye Xi feels that his breathing is more rapid than before, um... After all, with a person on your back, your lung capacity will inevitably increase a little.
Ye Xi summed it up, the air is still as bad as ever, the smell of dust is still pungent, if you want to say that the only thing that has changed, that is, it feels worse!
Walking down the street with Xuan Xi on his back, his injuries had recovered a lot after a night's rest, and his self-healing power surprised even Ye Xi himself.
No matter how stupid he is, he can realize that this amazing self-healing power is definitely not an ability that ordinary humans can have, perhaps, this is the monster side hidden in his body.
I can't say that one day, my monster side will awaken again, repeat the cruel blood feast, and slaughter everything in sight, including the girl on her back, thinking of this, Ye Xi's face was a little helpless. It seems that before that, I have to find a way to settle the matter between myself and the girl.
"Why do you have to come out?" Ye Xi complained.
"I'm very scared, I always feel that every time my big brother goes out, the whole person is very uneasy, afraid that my big brother will not come back, or when he comes back, he will be covered in blood." Xuanxi's pupils darkened, and he poured out his feelings.
"If I take you out, I'm afraid I'm going to die outside."
"So... Are we going to die together now? Xuan Xi said excitedly, if she didn't know, she thought she was going to some fun place.
"I don't want to die yet!" Ye Xi subconsciously replied, but as soon as the words came out, Ye Xi was stunned, and then added: "At least I don't want to yet, besides, I don't think the relationship between me and you is very good, it's just the extent that I have said a few words."
"Hmm~" Xuan Xi is like a child who has been robbed of a rag doll, he doesn't say a word, and he doesn't shed tears, but the expression on his pretty face seems to be written on his face with sadness clearly marked on his face, and he almost didn't open his mouth to cry.
Ye Xi was carrying Xuan Xi on his back, so naturally he couldn't see the expression on Xuan Xi's face, and even if he saw it, he wouldn't make a move.
The distance from his own house to the guild was not too far, and after about ten minutes, Ye Xi arrived at the destination of this trip.
When he came back from the chaotic area yesterday, his injuries were too serious, even if regeneration could heal his wounds, it would not be able to make up for the mental exhaustion, so Ye Xi had no choice but to go back to the house to rest for a day and postpone this matter.
If you want to come back from the chaos zone, the first thing you must do must be to resell the life core in your hand into hunter points.
During this four-day journey, Ye Xi harvested a total of twelve life cores, one of which was a real second-order life core, if it was resold into hunter points, it would definitely be a lot of income, even some hunters who had just entered the second order might not be able to hunt so many monsters in a short period of time.
The price of the first-order life core is uneven, for example, the same first-order Heka and the hungry wolf, obviously the latter is more difficult, naturally, the life core of the hungry wolf will be more expensive.
Among the twelve life cores, Ye Xi left only Duka's life cores, and the rest were all resold to the Hunter Guild in exchange for three hundred and seventy hunter points.
The value of the first-order life core is at least twenty hunter points, and usually the stronger first-order monsters are thirty hunter points, and only eleven life cores can resell three hundred and seventy hunter points, it is not difficult to imagine that the prey in Ye Xi's hands is the best among the first-order monsters, and the hungry wolf is just one of the weakest.
"Need special services?" After exchanging hunter points, the blonde woman with heavy makeup threw away her wink at Ye Xi.
"It's free!" Again, the woman emphasized.
The woman's influence on Ye Xi was very profound, she still remembered that it had only been a few days since this young man had inscribed runes, and he was able to hunt so many monsters, so you can imagine how good his potential as a hunter was.
"Bad guys!" Xuan Xi got up from Ye Xi's back, stared at the two wave balls on the woman's chest, and then lowered her head to look at her plain, and suddenly looked loveless.
The woman noticed Xuanxi's strange gaze, and listened to her chest proudly, and the two wave balls trembled with the pull of gravity, very bewitching, so that some young hunters next to her couldn't help but swallow spit.
The woman just wanted to say something, but Ye Xi shook her head like this.
"It's a shame you're a step late, I've already booked someone for a wonderful night." Ye Xi calmly rejected the woman's proposal, and then, without waiting for the woman to speak again, Ye Xi said her second purpose: "Give me a special effect bandage and a Yale skull!"
"Well, if you regret it, you can always come to me." The woman ignored Xuan Xi's arrogant expression, she didn't expect that the woman who made an appointment in Ye Xi's mouth was this little bit, and she thought that Xuan Xi was Ye Xi's sister.
After all... As a woman, Xuan Xi can be said to have no capital at all.
"It's three hundred and twenty hunter points in total, and if you're willing to decline that woman's reservation, I can get a fraction." The woman tempted, she was confident in her methods, as long as a young and vigorous young man like Ye tasted herself, she would definitely be unable to stop.
"I'm not short of these odds." Ye Xi smiled contemptuously.
After settling the account, Ye Xi turned around in the woman's gaze, what he didn't see was that an imperceptible trace of annoyance flashed in the woman's eyes.
"You'll regret it!" The woman thought to herself.
…
on the road
Xuan Xi's mood seems to be very good, humming a cheerful ballad in his mouth, it is still dry air, and the smell of dust has not dissipated, but for some reason, I always feel that something is different, maybe it's not just a bad thing, it seems that on the way back, it is no longer so boring.
When he went back, Ye Xi passed by a clothing store, and thought about the blood and dirt on the only clothes on Xuan Xi's body, and the original patterns on the clothes had long since faded and became blurry.
Ye Xi felt a fleeting longing flash on Xuan Xi's face, but it disappeared quickly, if it wasn't for Ye Xi's passive perception, it is estimated that he would not have noticed this change.
Then go buy a few, after all, she's like this, and it's a bit embarrassing to carry it out.
With this in mind, Ye Xi walked into the clothing store and bought a few long skirts and clothes, the cloth strips of this era were quite cheap, Ye Xi still had fifty hunter points left, enough for Xuan Xi to buy a lot of clothes.
"You help her change her clothes, take a basin of water to help her wash her body, and remember not to touch her wounds!" Ye Xi watched Xuan Xi happily pick out clothes, walked to the clerk silently, threw three cake tickets to the clerk like garbage, and ordered indifferently.
"Okay!" The clerk didn't dare to disobey at all, and nodded hesitantly.
After changing his clothes, Xuan Xi was supported by the clerk and met Ye Xi's eyes again, but there was a great change, after washing the filth on his face, the face revealed was unexpectedly delicate and cute, as delicate as a doll, and even the clerk couldn't help but praise a few words from the bottom of his heart.
"Barely human." Ye Xi hit mercilessly, not caring about Xuan Xi's desire to be praised in his heart.
This sentence fell into Xuan Xi's ears, and the expectation on his face suddenly collapsed, turning into a loveless color, and his mouth kept muttering: "Sure enough, I shouldn't expect my big brother to say something good"... Words like that.
Ye Xi didn't lie, in Ye Xi's opinion, Xuan Xi did have a temperament, but it was a stranger he had never been in contact with, among the women he had ever met, the most beautiful was the white-haired girl he had met in the guild, followed by Qin Xi.
Xuan Xi is indeed very special, but it has nothing to do with the beauty of Lolita and Qin Xi, at least in Ye Xi's opinion.
At the end of the day, beauty and cuteness really can't be grouped together.
After Ye Xi settled the account, he picked up Xuan Xi again and threw himself into Ye Xi's not wide back, but Xuan Xi always felt inexplicably calm and serene in his heart, as if he had forgotten all his troubles, the corners of his mouth would always rise unconsciously, and he couldn't even tell the reason, and the dissatisfaction with being hit by Ye Xi was inadvertently erased.
…
"This kid is so troublesome, he always messes with his wounds, and it costs me an extra hundred hunter points!" On the way back, Ye Xi only had this thought in his heart.
