Chapter 199: Old Naughty Boy
"Old man Zhu?" Hearing Zhao Xiaoyi's words, Xu Qingqing frowned slightly, obviously she also knew about this old man Zhu, "What are you looking for him, his temper is very stinky."
"Naturally, there is something to find him, let's go, let's go and see first!" The corners of Zhao Xiaoyi's mouth raised slightly, and the words fell, he raised his feet and stepped forward, whether he could get something or not, he needed to determine whether Old Man Zhu had gluttonous essence and blood there.
Xu Qingqing sighed slightly, and then he had to keep up, in this new night city, everyone else avoided the old man Zhu like a plague god, but he didn't expect that there would be someone who sent him to the door.
A dilapidated small building in the easternmost part of the New Night City, it is located in a remote location, sparsely populated, not even a bird, and the surrounding area is filled with a dilapidated atmosphere, and the atmosphere is quite lonely.
With Xu Qingqing leading the way, Zhao Xiaoyi saved a lot of things, and in a quarter of an hour, he went straight to this dilapidated small building from the New Night City.
"Is this the dilapidated small building that Senior Xu said!" The footsteps paused in front of the small building, Zhao Xiaoyi's eyes glanced ahead, and in his sight, it was a two-story small wooden building, the wooden building was dilapidated, the roof showed holes the size of a basin, and several pillars were broken, as if they had been devastated by war, but it was indeed quite broken.
"This is it, are you sure you want to go in!" Xu Qingqing brought Zhao Xiaoyi here, but she didn't mean to go in with Zhao Xiaoyi, she and Xu Ming came here once, and she remembered the strange temper of Old Man Zhu very deeply.
"It's all here, why don't you go and see it. "Zhao Xiaoyi has never seen Old Man Zhu, so naturally he doesn't know what kind of temperament Old Man Zhu is, his feet have already stepped here, how can he return in vain.
However, just as Zhao Xiaoyi was about to step towards the small building, suddenly a cracking sound came from the small building, and a puff of black smoke came out of a room, followed by a figure that also rushed out in embarrassment.
"Don't be surprised, this is the old man Zhu's own movement, he tinkered with his own inventions all day long, he hasn't seen anything invented for so many years, but he has always been blown up. When Zhao Xiaoyi was surprised, Xu Qingqing explained on the side at this time, it seems that this kind of thing is no longer strange.
"Oh, invention?" Hearing this, Zhao Xiaoyi's eyes narrowed slightly, he was indeed a strange old man, he had nothing to do with studying these things all day long, seeing this small building dilapidated like this, most of it had something to do with the explosions he always made!
"Whoa, whoa, burn me, burn me, huhu!" the old man jumped out of the room, shook his right hand vigorously, and hurriedly blew it with his mouth, but the pain from that hand still made him stomp his feet all over the ground.
This is an old man in his sixties, but this old man looks different from other old men, his temples are white, and his face is full of furrows, but the spirit is like a young man, not as stiff and slow as other old people, his feet are jumping on the ground, like a child spoiled, his white hair is scattered, he was a little scorched just now, and the linen clothes on his body were also blown to tatters, seeing this scene, he couldn't help but think of a word, old naughty boy.
seemed to have noticed Zhao Xiaoyi and Xu Qingqing downstairs, Old Man Zhu threw his eyes over to the two of them, and looked at them with his head probed for a while, before he muttered there, "The little girl of the Xu family!"
"Grandpa Zhu, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you!" Seeing Old Man Zhu's gaze thrown over, Xu Qingqing shouted at Old Man Zhu at this time, but there was no trace of the arrogance he had before, but he seemed very polite, it seemed that people like Xu Qingqing were afraid of Old Man Zhu's strange temper.
"The little girl of the Xu family, what are you doing here, are you thinking about my face, I can tell you, it's no fun. Xu Qingqing just said hello, and Old Man Zhu waved his hand at Xu Qingqing, and his things were still tight enough.
Hearing this, Xu Qingqing smiled bitterly, last time she really wanted to ask Old Man Zhu for a smile, but she was kicked out by Old Man Zhu on the spot, how could she be cheeky to ask for it now, just about to speak, but she was pulled down by Zhao Xiaoyi next to her.
"Senior, this time it's not Qingqing looking for you, but the kid has something to ask for. Zhao Xiaoyi took a step forward, looked up at Old Man Zhu and said loudly.
"You?" Hearing this, Old Man Zhu moved his gaze to Zhao Xiaoyi, "Who are you?"
"Boy Zhao Xiaoyi, from Shenwu Academy, this time I came to ask the seniors for something, can you come into the house to talk. Zhao Xiaoyi reported his name, and he did not hide his identity, I believe that without him saying more, Old Man Zhu will be able to see it when the time comes.
"Shenwu Academy, the people of Shenwu Academy are not good to stay in your Shenwu Academy, what are you looking for me?" Old man Zhu's wrinkled eyelids narrowed slightly, but he didn't mean to let Zhao Xiaoyi into the house.
"This matter is more important, I think we should talk about it in the house!" Zhao Xiaoyi had a slight humble smile on his face, whether it was successful or not, he didn't let people stand at this door to speak.
"No need, I'm messing around here, let's talk about it directly, if there's nothing important, just hurry up and cool off, old man, I don't have time to chat with you." Old man Zhu said impatiently to Zhao Xiaoyi, he stretched out his hand to pull away the white hair scattered in front of him, and walked forward to the half-rotten guardrail on the second floor.
Zhao Xiaoyi smiled helplessly, this old man is indeed not an ordinary person, and I am afraid that many people will directly touch their noses with this character.
Xu Qingqing also sighed slightly, she had already told Zhao Xiaoyi that Old Man Xu had a strange temperament, and it was even more difficult to get something from him than to ascend to the sky.
"Since that's the case, then I'll say it bluntly, the kid came here this time to ask for something from Senior Zhu. Since others didn't want them to enter the house, Zhao Xiaoyi naturally didn't have a dead face, but he still said the purpose of this trip.
"What's that?"
"Gluttonous blood!"
"Gluttonous essence and blood?" Hearing this, Old Man Zhu's eyes widened, and he stared at Zhao Xiaoyi in a little surprise, "It was Xu Ming's kid who told you that I have gluttonous essence and blood!"
Old man Zhu was not stupid, when he saw Xu Qingqing standing beside Zhao Xiaoyi, he knew that Xu Ming told Zhao Xiaoyi when he guessed.
"Exactly, I don't know if I can ask my seniors for some. Zhao Xiaoyi didn't hide it, and replied casually.
"What are you doing with gluttonous blood?"
"Alchemy!"
"Alchemy?" Old Man Zhu's eyes narrowed slightly, "You refine it yourself?"
"That's right, the kid recently wanted to try to refine a pill, but he just lacked the gluttonous essence blood of Zhu's seniors. Zhao Xiaoyi nodded and said.
Hearing this, Old Man Zhu was slightly surprised, but he didn't expect this kid to take gluttonous essence blood alchemy, you know, the elixir level refined by gluttonous essence blood is at least above the fourth level, but the alchemy of this kid in front of him is above the fourth grade.
"Sorry, no. After thinking about it, Old Man Zuihou Zhu still waved his hand.
