Chapter 279: Downfall
Mr. Li had a position, so he left after a while, and it was getting late, so I got up and went to rest. There is a mirror in the room that looks like a girl's room.
But Mr. Li has no wife and children, obviously it was prepared for Wang Xue'er, she deliberately arranged me in her room, just to tell me, is she not disgusted?
The vanity mirror was carefully covered by her curtain, I walked to the front, gently pulled it open, and in the mirror I could only see blood-red eyes, and my whole body was covered in a white robe, like a ghost who could only hide in the darkness forever.
My hands trembled slightly, but I still slowly opened the hood, and inside was a face that I would be afraid to look at, because the recovery of ancestral blood and the corrosion of corpse poison acted at the same time, and the half-rotten muscles under the skin were constantly wriggling, like countless insects about to break through the skin of the face and drill out.
The power of the blood of immortality and ancestral blood was forcibly concentrated on my face, and the blue-black skin slowly recovered, revealing its original appearance, fair skin, big dark eyes, and a little childishness, but after countless days and nights of inhuman pain, my eyes were more determined than before.
After a short period of facial recovery, blood seeped from my hands and contaminated the gloves, so I hurriedly gave up to maintain the balance of my body.
Wang Xue'er pushed the door in, just saw this scene, hurriedly came over and covered the mirror and said, "Young Master Su, don't look at it, when you enter the thunder pool, you will be able to recover when the time comes!" ”
I looked at the blood on the glove and used my occult power to remove it. Wang Xue'er took out a splendid cloth bag from her waist and took out a few pills from it and gave it to me.
I pinched it in my hand and felt the spiritual power in the elixir, it was much worse than the Yuanqi Pill, but Wang Xue'er only got them because of her family, and the Yuanqi Pill was only slightly precious to her daughter-in-law and sister.
"Xue'er, don't change the elixir in the future, I don't need these things after I break the void!" I said as I put the elixir back in her hand. I need it now, and eating it can at least give me a little more sleep, but if I take it, Cher will do everything she can to change it.
I'm grateful that she was able to bring me to Thunder City, and I don't want to be a burden and a burden to her.
"Childe, do you think the quality of the elixir is low? I'll go and change it tomorrow and come back! When Wang Xue'er saw that I returned the pill, her eyes suddenly panicked.
I was already in an irritable mood, and after explaining three times and twice, I finally got a little angry, and said with a slight roar: "I said that I have broken the void and don't need these things, don't you always misinterpret my meaning?" ”
Wang Xue'er was stunned by my roar, and after a few seconds, she lowered her head, biting her lip and not speaking.
"Go back and rest!" I reluctantly softened my voice and patted her on the shoulder, her originally pale face instantly turned red, and she quickly turned away after saying "um".
I closed the door, went back to the chair and sat down, and when I turned around, I saw four pills on the table, and I couldn't help but smile bitterly twice, almost ignoring that she was a fourth-order powerhouse.
I couldn't take the pill, and I didn't want to burden her, so I picked it up and walked out gently. Because my strength has mutated, it is difficult for anyone to notice, and Cher outside the door and inside are not aware of it, but the window is right open, and I see her rummaging through the room, putting all her jewelry on the table.
She used to be the young master of the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and the things on the table may have been brought out at that time, and if I replaced them, I would keep them for a thought.
Xue'er looked at the ornaments on the table, and let out a long sigh, obviously it was not enough for me to consume all the elixirs, she was slightly stunned, she thought about something, and suddenly reached behind her neck and took off the necklace on her chest, which was a unique pendant, glowing reddish, the size of a thumb.
There was a bit of reluctance in her eyes, and finally she put it in the pile of jewelry, and finally a relaxed smile appeared on her face. I wanted to push the door in, but seeing her smile, I hesitated and quietly returned to my room.
If I stop it, it will be a disservice to her, but what she has done today will be repaid tenfold in the future. As for her affection, I can't accept it.
Spread out the palm of his hand, pick up a pill and take it, the aura spreads, the power of the ancestral blood is enhanced, and the pain in the body is slightly relieved. Although it was not completely eradicated, it still made me breathe a long sigh of comfort, slowly lay down in bed, and barely slept for a few hours in the early hours of the morning.
I got up early the next day, and I met Mr. Li in the courtyard, and he was busy doing things, but I was relieved that I had already mentioned it to the elders who were good to him, and after Qin Yue's visit, he would tell Long He about Lei Nush.
He didn't say whether he could do it or not, he just looked at his expression and eyes, and no matter what he did, he would get it done. After Mr. Li left, Xue'er came out, and she looked a little flustered, as if she was avoiding me.
But I stopped her, and before I asked, she panicked and said, "I'll go out and buy something, and I'll be back soon." ”
I saw something bulging hidden under her sleeve, and said with mixed feelings: "I know you're going to change the pill, I'll go with you." ”
Wang Xue'er's eyes widened, and she asked incredulously, "How do you know?" ”
I smiled, but unfortunately she couldn't see it. There's no way I'm going to tell her about the peek last night. The two of them went out and walked on the bustling street, feeling extremely relaxed.
There are too many things in Sword City, every time I go back and forth to the City Lord's Mansion, I am in a hurry, and I have never calmed down and wandered around the streets, but now I feel it, it has a different taste, as if I have integrated into the society of ordinary people.
Xue'er led me across the main road, and finally stopped at a pharmacy on the west side, she stopped and said, "You wait for me outside, and you will come out in a while, the order of Thunder City is better than that of Sword City, and it will be fine." ”
Although the spirit stone is a universal currency, the phenomenon of bartering is also very common, as long as there is such a system, there will naturally be profiteers, and there will be people who take advantage of people's danger.
Xue'er didn't come out for a while, I didn't worry about following in, the shopkeeper was a man in his fifties, holding the unique pendant in his hand, and his little eyes were shining.
They were talking, it sounded like there was an argument over its pricing, Xue'er said that the pendant was worth 50,000 spirit stones, I was shocked to hear this number, but I also understood that the pendant was not an ordinary item.
But the shopkeeper is only willing to pay 20,000 yuan, and the price difference is too great. Xue'er was kind-hearted, she said that 50,000 must be less, and she was so anxious that she almost cried when she heard the shopkeeper's words.
After hearing this, I walked over and reached out to squeeze the shopkeeper's hand and snatched the pendant back. The shopkeeper was probably frightened by my appearance, and after a few seconds he reacted and was about to call someone.
"Shopkeeper, she's my friend!" Xue'er hurriedly shouted for fear of misunderstanding, and the shopkeeper stopped. I took back the pendant and said, "Miss Cher, don't change the pendant, just change it for anything else." ”
The shopkeeper showed a sneer in his eyes: "This old man, are you sure?" ”
I nodded, and without saying a word, the shopkeeper took out a porcelain bottle, poured out two pills and put them on the table. The fire in my heart ignited instantly, and Cher had a lot of jewelry, just ......
"Childe......" Wang Xue'er grabbed me, and the voice reminded me: "This is Lei City!" ”
The shopkeeper said disdainfully: "Except for me, there is no second store in the entire Thunder City that is willing to accept these rags, except for the pendant, of course." After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly: "Young man, it's okay to see people, but if you don't have the ability, you have to learn to be a man with your tail between your legs." ”
Cher's intimate jewelry was said to be tattered, and my anger was even worse, but lack of money was my weakness, which could never be remedied, and I couldn't do anything to open a store to make money. Cher took the jade pendant from my hand and put it on the table, I wanted to take it back, but she grabbed it.
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he quickly collected the jade pendant, poured out fifteen or sixteen pills and put them on the counter. Xue'er stopped me with her body, carefully put away the pill, and pulled me out of the store in a hurry.
I didn't say a word during the whole process, because I didn't know what to say, no matter how ruthless I was, what could I change for my current situation?
I was in a bad mood, so I didn't rush back after I came out, and let Cher leave first. I walked around aimlessly a few times, passed by a shop selling strange beasts, and found that there were many people around the store.
I squeezed in and took a look, and found that it was the purchase order in the store: the core of a fifth-order alien beast, 50,000 spirit stones to buy. And there is also a map of the infestation of strange beasts below.
The fifth-order alien beast is equivalent to the sixth-order strength of the human being, which is extremely rare, and I didn't expect the store to provide a map. But compared to the 50,000 spirit stones, the person who can kill it disdains to make a move, and the person who is in dire need of the 50,000 spirit stones is unlikely to want to kill the beast that is equivalent to the sixth-order powerhouse.
I thought about it, my daughter-in-law's sister will come in a few days, and it will inevitably be sad to see her, and with her strength, it is very likely that she will notice that I am in the city, so it is better to take this opportunity to go out, while the power of the ancient body is still there, it should not be difficult to kill the fifth-order beast, and at the same time, it can also reduce Xue'er's burden.
It's just that she can't let her know about this matter, otherwise she will definitely not agree. As for the core of the alien beast, to put it simply, the beads condensed by their dantian are the crystallization of the power of the alien beast, but their power is different from that of humans, and they can't absorb it, and they don't know what the family pharmacy is going to buy.
Because of the Demon Gate, I remembered the map very quickly, and I had memorized it all in half a minute, and returned to Mr. Li's courtyard after leaving the crowd.
Wang Xue'er came back first, but she kept looking forward to it at the door, and when she saw me, she let out a breath from her little mouth, and her face was flushed.
I smiled in my mask and went in and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow for a few days, but I'll be back soon." ”
Xue'er wanted to speak and stopped, but finally asked softly, "Are you avoiding Qinyue?" I didn't want her to suspect anything else, so I sighed, "Sort of." ”
The next day, Cher sent me out of the city, and when I got to a place where there was no one, I opened the magic door and left directly.
And just as I was going to slaughter the beasts. A group of people came up the official road thousands of miles away, and there was a luxurious sedan chair in the middle, and it was Bai Qinyue who sat inside.
Since Su Yan's accident, there has been no smile on her face, and the people accompanying her are silent, and they don't dare to talk in a whisper.
In the sedan car, Xiao Lu's face was also full of sorrow, and he couldn't help but say: "Miss, I know that you love Su Yan, but you are used to being in a high position, and some things are ......."
"Shut up!" Qin Yue didn't wait for Xiao Lu to finish speaking, and snorted coldly, but her heart suddenly hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
