He Qi followed the blacksmith back to the shop. The next few days he went back to his old life.

In order to reassure Blacksmith Wang, he has been helping Blacksmith Wang take care of his weapons shop, and sometimes he will learn to blacksmith with Blacksmith Wang. Never left the armory shop for half a step.

During this period, Uncle Yang came a few times, so that he had time to go to the training ground of his hunting team to study. Yang Yu would also come to chat with him in his spare time, and life seemed to return to the ordinary once and for all, but the dream of that night always haunted him.

The strange and extraordinarily real dream that revealed everywhere hovered over his head like a dark cloud, and could not be dispersed.

The stone bead in his body has not moved since then, except for the change he felt when he was chased and killed by the Qingyue Xuanwolf.

He wanted to step out of the door and go to the grocery store in the northern corner of the town countless times to ask what was going on, but he couldn't help but look at the old face of the king blacksmith.

"Do whatever you want?" said Blacksmith Wang, looking at the absent-minded He Qi, who could feel the changes in He Qi these days.

Since that time back, He Qi has always been preoccupied.

"Ahh

"It's nothing, you go out, you don't have to stay with me all the time, you have grown up, you should have your own world, you can't accompany me for a lifetime, go, kid, whether it's to join the hunting team to cultivate, or something else!!let it go"

Blacksmith Wang looked at He Qi and said slowly, his eyes full of encouragement.

He Qi looked at Blacksmith Wang, his heart was full of emotion, he nodded heavily at Blacksmith Wang, and then stepped out of the door of the weapons shop.

......

The grocery store is on the north side of the town, about a dozen kilometers away from the blacksmith's shop.

From here, you have to walk through a few alleys, and then pass over reclaimed fields and overgrown mass graves.

Due to the remoteness of this area, and the fact that the townspeople do not have much demand for groceries, there are very few people here.

Except for a few homes in the neighborhood, no one walks far to the grocery store, which is off the beaten track.

In He Qi's view, the isolated Luoyan Town can be called a paradise, the residents of the town live and work in peace and contentment, and they can all be called kind and simple, but only the old man Li in the grocery store and the surrounding environment seem out of place.

Maybe it's because of Old Man Li's notoriety, no one has come to him to buy things after a long time, so he will move to such a desolate place!!

If it weren't for such a desolate environment, maybe He Qi wouldn't know Old Man Li.

When He Qi was young. I especially like to catch small animals with Yang Yu, and the prey caught also goes into their stomachs.

And because there are a lot of trees and weeds here, the space is open, and there are many pheasants, badgers, and hares in small animals, so this place has become their first choice.

Over time, they also learned that there was a grocery store in this neighborhood.

......

He Qi looked at the desolate log cabin in front of him, the signboard hanging on the roof beams was covered with dust, as if it would fall down at any moment.

If you look at it, you can vaguely see the word groceries on the signboard.

He Qi looked at the door in front of him, an irrepressible emotion spread from his heart, and he raised his feet and kicked forward.

"Dead old man, you come out for me!!" He Qi shouted as he looked at the empty hall inside after entering the door.

After a long time, an old man in a green shirt walked out of the small room inside, he calmed down, looked at He Qi and said with a strange smile: "I said who is screaming here early in the morning, it turns out to be you dead child." “

"It's noon. He Qi looked at the sunlight spreading in the hall and said expressionlessly.

This old man is always so unreliable.

"Hmm.... Do people sleep so well when they are old, Lao Tzu is really old and strong...... Anyway, I haven't seen you kid for a long time, what's the matter with me now?" the old man muttered secretly for a while, and then asked He Qi.

"That stone bead. He Qi said coldly to the old man.

"What stone beads....... You mean that stone bead??" The old man thought for a while, his body shook, and asked loudly.

Then he looked up at He Qi, his face full of smiles: "You finished the last time I told you?"

He Qi looked at the old man indignantly and nodded, and then he could no longer suppress his imminent outburst and roared at the old man: "Last time, you asked me to put the stone bead into a cold pool in the canyon, and I also put it according to the location on the map you gave, but the stone bead directly sucked up the pool water inside." None of this matters!!

The key is that there is a terrifying demon beast near this cold pool, and I was chased by this demon beast after that, and I almost died in its mouth. ”

"Aren't you still dead!!, I also saw it in ancient books, and the map was also left in the book that recorded this stone bead, and I can't be sure about the specific situation in it!" the old man explained to He Qi with a bitter expression.

"What the hell is that stone bead?" After He Qi finished venting, he suddenly felt a little better in his heart. He calmed down and asked the old man.

"It may be some kind of treasure, or it may be the egg laid by a peerless demon beast, there is no clear record in the specific book, but it is said that putting that stone bead into the cold pool may produce amazing changes. The old man pondered for a while and said slowly.

"Do you still have that book here?" asked He Qi.

"I'm afraid I can't find it, what I saw when I was young, it seems to be written by the ancestors in the town, but when that person went out, he took most of the ancient books in the town......"

The man the old man said was the one who had gone out of the town and had never returned, and everyone speculated that he had died in the canyon, so the town's higher-ups were also very taboo about it.

Suddenly, the old man seemed to remember something, he stared at He Qi for a while, and asked loudly, "What about Shizhu now?"

At this time, He Qi's heart was slightly bitter, and after hearing the old man's question, he shook his head and gently pointed to the position in the center of his chest.

"What? You ate him?

Although you kid has harmed enough small animals in the neighborhood before, you won't let go of even a stone!"

The old man shouted in annoyance, his body actually began to tremble at this time, and He Qi was very worried about whether he would die suddenly.

"What do you mean I ate it, it got into it on its own, do you think I want to keep this thing? Dead old man, think about if there's any way to get it out?"

He Qi said loudly to the old man.

"Don't fool me, you kid, although I'm a little older, but I'm not to the point of being old and confused, how can this thing get into his body by himself. “

The old man looked at He Qi in disbelief and shouted.

"Believe it or not, in fact it went in by itself, these are all put first, I don't want this stone bead now, is there any way you can get him out. He Qi said helplessly to the old man.

After hearing this, the old man nodded at He Qi, and then he quietly looked at He Qi's chest, and his eyes made He Qi furious.

"That's the only way to do it," said the old man.

"What's the solution?"

"Cut your chest with a knife, take out the stone beads, sew up your wounds afterwards, and apply my healing secret elixir Bai Lingsan, and after ten days and half a month, you can go out alive again."

"You've had this before?"

"Hmm.... When he was younger, he helped some people in the town kill pigs...... It's really a reminder of the years...... But I don't think I'm new yet. “

"Die!!, you dead old man, you're so bad. “

He Qi looked at the old man who was smiling at him in front of him, and his heart was crooked, this old liar had a bad stomach, and his speech was full of seriousness. Not reliable at all.
