Chapter 108: Something I've Never Heard Of
Like Lei Huanhuan, the gentle Xia Yujia also sympathized with Aunt Xu and believed in Qiu Shuishui's words.
Maybe it was the woman's sixth sense telling her.
Should help.
However, unlike them, Xia Yujia trusted Xu Luo more. She knew that Xu Luo was definitely not a cold-blooded person, and he must have his reasons for doing this or saying so.
She didn't want to change Xu Luo's approach for her own reasons, and she didn't want to disturb his thinking.
So she was in a quandary.
She didn't speak, nor did she look at Xu Luo too much, and soon lowered her head slightly, looking at Qiu Shuishui and holding her hands.
Those cold hands were still trembling slightly.
It's not fear, it's not anxiety, it's just nervousness, inexplicable nervousness.
For a moment, there was a sudden silence in the hall.
The more silent she became, the more disappointed Qiu Shui became, and she finally knew from Xia Yujia's hands what kind of person this beautiful and gentle woman was.
With a slight disappointment in his heart, he slowly let go of Xia Yujia's hands.
Huo Ran turned his head, stared at Xu Luo tightly, and said firmly: "As long as you save Aunt Xu, I can tell you a secret about the Jade Mountain Villa." ”
Xu Luo glanced at Qiu Shui Shui lightly, and said lightly: "Since the first day I entered the Emerald Villa, it seems that there are countless secrets hidden in this Emerald Villa, and to this day, it has almost numbed me. ”
He turned his head to the window and glanced outside.
The rain finally stopped.
"Actually, I don't have the slightest interest in the secrets of the Emerald Hills, because I'm going to leave here after all, and no one or anything here has anything to do with me, but what I don't understand is why you always try to drag me in."
He stopped, as if waiting for Qiushuishui to give him an answer.
"Because you came at such a coincidence." Qiushuishui seemed to have calmed down, and she finally no longer expected to be able to say that Xu Luo would come to the rescue.
Xu Luo turned around, and there was a sarcastic smile on his face.
"Perhaps." He said self-deprecatingly.
Suddenly, he stared at Qiushui, who was about to leave, and said seriously: "When are they going to drive Aunt Xu away?" ”
Qiu Shuishui gently tugged at the corners of her lips, and seemed to return to the face that had never changed much in the TV, and said softly: "Tomorrow, when you go to the public trial, I will drive away Aunt Xu in front of you and make you satisfied." ”
A faint look of contempt quickly passed through her bright eyes.
She was completely dead to Xu Luo, and didn't care about the cynicism that followed.
"Well, I'll get them to retract that decision tomorrow."
Xu Luo said in a deep voice.
Qiu Shuishui had already turned his delicate body and was about to say goodbye and leave, when he heard this, he almost didn't believe his ears, and his face was full of unexpected surprise.
I was reluctant to take a step again.
Her cold, somewhat purple lips trembled slightly, and she said hesitantly, "... You...... What did you say? ”
Xu Luo sighed and said a little impatiently: "I promised, do you need to say it again?" If you hear clearly, you can go. ”
He finally gave the order to evict the guest.
However, this eviction order made Qiu Shuishui not have the slightest temper, only gratitude.
“… Oh...... no, no more. ”
"That's right." Xu Luo said coldly, "As for the secret you said, please take it with you, it's all for you people to fight for power and profit......
"I don't want to think about what time it is, and I'm still thinking about it."
Gently "hummed", very ashamed of this secret.
"No, no, this secret I know has nothing to do with people, it's about Emerald Villa." Qiu Shuishui suddenly became anxious and tried his best to justify.
"Oh?"
Her words finally aroused Xu Luo's interest, and he glanced at Qiu Shuishui hesitantly.
A smug look flashed in Qiu Shuishui's eyes.
It turns out that there are times when you are interested.
Soon let this smugness lurk, Masase said: "However, I don't know if this secret is accurate or not, and the news I heard is only a scale armor." ”
Xu Luo frowned, his expression uncertain.
What kind of joke is this woman making, I really think that he is so easy to talk, and he actually uses this kind of hearsay, and he can't figure out the news to come here and talk nonsense casually as a secret.
He lowered his face and said, "You better go." ”
"I'm not talking nonsense." Qiushui became anxious and blurted out, "Chu Li is very serious about this news, for the sake of ......"
Suddenly, he glanced outside the dark room, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.
"Chu Li?" Xu Luo pondered for a moment, and then said, "Tell me, what is the secret of the Emerald Villa. ”
"Don't say I said it." The fear in Qiushuishui's eyes still did not disappear, and he said quickly, "Emerald Mountain Villa was originally supposed to be called Jade Dragon Mountain Villa, a hundred years ago, there was a hill here, and then it was flattened for some reason, but I heard that it was because a dragon's lair was found here. ”
Xu Luo stared straight at the autumn water.
He found out that he had made a mistake, and he would really believe any secret, and this kind of strange news is estimated that only Wang Youxing will believe it.
"Really!" Wang Youxing really jumped up at this time and said excitedly, "Boss, why don't we check." ”
Xu Luo looked at Wang Youxing's eager expression and felt a little headache.
Turning his head, he said coldly to Qiu Shuishui: "Your words are finished, we are going to rest in peace." ”
Qiu Shuishui nodded lightly and walked towards the gate.
Walking to the door, he stopped, suddenly turned his head and said, "You must save Aunt Xu, otherwise I will hate you for the rest of my life." ”
No matter how you listen to it, I don't think this sentence tastes right.
Xu Luo's eyes became cold, and he said coldly: "I'm not negotiating terms with you. ”
The tone is particularly cold and tough.
Qiu Shuishui didn't say much, looked at Xu Luo deeply for a while, opened the door gently, looked out of the door cautiously, and then went out quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared into darkness.
The door was still open, and she forgot to bring it with her, which showed the panic in her heart.
Xu Luo shook his head, walked to the door, and closed the door.
"Okay, there's no drama to watch." Wang Youxing was the first to understand what Xu Luo meant at this time, spread his hands and said, "Everyone go and rest, there is something to be ordered by the old assembly tomorrow morning." ”
With that, he walked to the second floor.
walked to Lei Huanhuan's side and said lightly: "Sister policeman, calm down in the future, don't listen to the wind and rain, it will explode like a cannonball." ”
Shaking his head and sighing, he walked up the stairs.
“… You ......"
Lei Huanhuan was hit by Wang Youxing, and she was so angry that she was smoking, and then she saw that everyone was looking at her with a forced smile, and she couldn't stay any longer, so she hurriedly walked to the second floor in a huff.
It's just that she didn't think about leaving here, leaving these people who were laughing at her.
Everyone walked to the second floor one after another, leaving only Xia Yujia, who was smiling and staring at Xu Luo, and she only had joy in her heart.
Only she believed from the beginning that Xu Luo would definitely save Aunt Xu, and Xu Luo did not disappoint her after all.
Without waiting for Xu Luo to speak, she said in a soft voice: "I'm also going to rest, don't be too tired, rest early." ”
Xu Luo nodded lightly.
Xia Yujia turned around and went up the stairs, her smiling expression turned into a faint sadness and worry.
She saw Xu Luo's blank expression again, the dazed look that had not disappeared since she came out of the simple building on the construction site.
She didn't know what was going on in Xu Luo.
However, she can be sure that it will not be a trivial matter, it must be something that makes Xu Luo extremely difficult.
Xu Luo was the only one left in the hall.
He walked over to the candle and gently blew it out, and the hall went dark. Slowly walked under the blank portrait and sat down cross-legged.
The long black sheath knife was placed on the side, and the military hiking bag was placed on the other side, and his eyes were closed.
Now, at last, he was able to think about his own problems.
After that sudden burst of thermal energy, the transformation of the crystal nucleus energy on the body was greatly strengthened, but what followed was-
Nothing has changed.
It seemed that the crystal nucleus energy was completely depleted, and his path to strengthening people stopped.
Xu Luo had never heard of such a situation.
I have only heard that there is a difference between fast and slow genetic transformation by absorbing crystal nuclei, and I have never heard of a situation where genetic transformation is stopped.
If you have to look for something similar, it's the injection of a booster.
After the first booster is injected, until the body's genetic transformation has completely stopped, then the second dose is given, and the cycle continues until it progresses.
Or the potion has no effect after being injected.
That means that from now on, the end of the path of strengthening will always stay at this stage.
That's what Xu Luo was worried about.
Although this small burst of thermal energy allowed him to take a big leap forward, and his physical ability could almost be said to have doubled, if absorbing the crystal nucleus had the same effect as injecting a strengthening potion for him, it meant that his strengthening path would have an end.
This is not a happy situation, it means that one day there will be countless people who will be able to surpass him, and Xu Luo will still act according to people's eyes when the time comes.
He didn't want to live like this in this life.
In his hand, he clutched the small cloth bag where the crystal nucleus was stored, and he was undecided.
Time passed slowly, and countless faces appeared in my mind, all of whom seemed to be looking at me with eager eyes.
Xu Luo's state of mind slowly became firm.
At least give it a try, who knows what the consequences will be, and even if this is the case, it is something that cannot be undone.
We'll talk about that then.
Take out a crystal nucleus from a small cloth bag, put it in the palm of your hand, empty all the distractions in your mind, and start trying to absorb the crystal nucleus.
Sure enough, the energy in the crystal nucleus was once again able to be absorbed by the body.
It was only after absorbing five crystal nuclei that he once again returned to a state where he could not absorb crystal nuclei, and he felt that the genes in his body began to slowly transform again.
Gentle and full of life.
But there was no joy in his heart, and he was worried about the future path of strengthening.
Slowly opened his eyes, his eyes clear and cold.
Even if it stops in the future, who stipulates that there is only one way to evolve, he is no longer Xu Luo in his previous life.
With the huge financial support of the Xu family, he didn't believe that he couldn't find a second way.
Now, the most important thing is to continue his path of survival.
