Chapter 249: A Town That Doesn't Exist anymore
Then again, is that book so divine?
Thinking of these, Shen Yi focused on her perspective again, and carefully looked at the book she was reading, he hadn't read it before, he had read it many times, but the content of the book was all in classical Chinese, even if the words on it seemed to be written by hand, it was very crazy, after reading it for a long time, Shen Yi could only barely recognize a few words, and he couldn't read it at all.
This time, he tried to understand the book again, but soon gave up again.
The two parties were silent for a while, and suddenly Shen Yi remembered something, opened his eyes suddenly, raised his head and asked, "Huh~ Do I remember who said that she would be better at cultivating the Pure Rank?" ”
His voice echoed in his head, and Tsurumi Hatsukumo was stunned for a moment when he heard it.
"Huh? What? Who is it? ”
"You!"
"What's wrong with me?"
"Who said that cultivating to the net level would be more delicious?"
"I don't know."
"You don't pretend to be stupid for me there, oh, I remember, in Daoguo Township, you said that it would be better if you cultivated to the net level, and now that you have reached the net level, is it time to fulfill your promise?"
"Uh...... What are you talking about? ”
"Also, I helped you practice a few days ago, but you still haven't said anything."
As she spoke, Shen Yi had turned into a ball of light that came out of her eyebrows, standing in front of her and staring straight at her.
"I ...... I don't remember, don't mess around......"
"You don't remember? Does it matter? I just remember it. ”
Shen Yi said, stretched out his claws and pressed her down, and the nameless book in his hand also fell to the side.
She began to struggle desperately, and after breaking through to the net level, her strength obviously increased, and Shen Yi almost didn't hold it down.
"Don't move!"
"Don't make a fuss, I haven't finished reading it yet."
"You want to break your promise, right?"
"No, it's the ......"
"What?"
"It would taste better if I practiced to the level of knowledge, really."
"I suspect you're lying to me."
"No, it's true."
"I'll taste ......"
"You don't have a taste when you taste it now."
"When will it taste?"
"When I practice to the level of knowledge, really, it will be even more delicious."
"You can't even lie to people."
"Really, I didn't lie to you."
"You just keep lying to you, it's really ......"
"You let go, your clothes are messed up by you...... Hmm~"
Shen Yi gradually increased his strength, although Tsurumi Chuyun broke through to the net level and his strength increased greatly, he was still a little powerless in the face of him, and after a stalemate for a while, he was defeated.
"Hey, hey, hey, old witch......"
"You're so annoying!"
Just as Shen Yi was about to speak, there was a sudden knock on the door, and a gust of night wind blew, causing the candle flame to flicker twice.
His movements paused, and he looked over at the same time as Tsurumi Hatsukumo.
"Who?"
"It's me Miss Jiang, what's wrong with you?"
"You still don't sleep?"
"We're not sleepy."
"What are you looking for me for?"
"That's it...... I want to ask if Dan has been refined. ”
Crane saw Chuyun glanced at Shen Yi, sighed and motioned for him to let go of himself, then got up and went over to open the door, looking at Wu Gong and the three people outside the door: "How can alchemy be so fast?" You go back, and I will naturally call you when you are done. ”
Wu Gong scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Okay, then let's go back first." As he spoke, he glanced into the room, and then a look of confusion appeared on his face.
Before knocking on the door, he vaguely heard the sound of someone else talking in the room except for Tsurumi Hatsukumo, but the voice was deliberately suppressed, so that he couldn't hear it very clearly.
Is it an auditory hallucination?
"What's wrong?" Seeing him look into the house, Tsuru saw that Hatsuyun couldn't help but ask, and he was a little panicked.
And after Wu Gong withdrew his gaze, he looked at Tsurumi Hatsuyun again, and said, "I just seemed to hear the voice of someone else in your room, this ......"
"This......" Tsuru saw Hatsukumo's expression of sudden realization, and replied: "I often talk to myself when I am alone, you should have heard it wrong." ”
"Oh." Wu Gong still had some suspicion in his eyes, but when he saw that Chuyun said so, he didn't want to say anything more, so he left after chatting a few words.
Closing the door again, Tsurumi Hatsuyun glanced at Shen Yi hatefully.
"Can you stop making trouble?"
"Gotta get it, don't make a fuss." Shen Yi shook his head, leaned on the edge of the broken window and opened his mouth to the sky outside, and after a few breaths, he saw a small flame burst out, and he retracted his head with satisfaction.
The sequelae of snake venom were slowly subsiding, and now he could finally spit out some dragon breath.
The night was getting darker, but his spirit was very good, he thought about not sleeping anymore and continued to digest the red gas, but after checking it, he found that the red gas was running out, and there were only about a dozen units left.
Is it possible to sleep tonight?
It is said that he has not shared Chen Xingyun's perspective for a while, but this should not be his problem, after all, Shen Yi has also slept several times, and the problem should be on Chen Xingyun's side.
According to the conjecture, only when one partner is asleep and the other is awake can the former have a chance to share the latter's perspective.
Shen Yi usually sleeps at night, and every time he shares Chen Xingyun's perspective, he is awake, and if he wants to share his perspective, he must start sleeping during the day.
Maybe the other party wants to change the schedule of both parties, but is it possible?
I don't care.
To put it bluntly, Shen Yi has no sense of trust in the guy who claims to be Chen Xingyun, as long as he can avoid meeting offline, then the other party can come as much as he likes.
Talking hi online is what he does best.
As for the enemies expressed by Chen Xingyun, "him" or "them" or something, Shen Yi didn't care even more.
For now, as an existence that can make a dynasty official wearing a purple official robe respectful, Chen Xingyun's guy at least has the strength of the Xuan Rank, and even the Ming Rank, an enemy that such an existence can't deal with, and now he can't deal with it, and it's simply for nothing to participate in.
If "he" and "them" really exist, the only thing Shen Yi has to do is to quickly dig a pit for himself and die a dignified death.
Therefore, to solve Chen Xingyun, it is also a matter after he has grown to the point where he can match the powerhouse of the Ming Rank, the ghost knows how long it will be, it may be a few years, or it may be decades later, at that time, he should break the contract with the old witch, right?
Be an adventurer, a traveler, and go around the mountains and rivers, eat, drink, and be carefree.
When Lu saw the injustice, he drew his sword to help, and shouted: "The sword is coming!" ”
No, you should shout: "Here comes the gun!" ”
The sword should not be easy to use, most of the monks' weapons in this world are long swords, just like the old witch, it is indeed freehand, but Shen Yi is very sure that the sword must not be suitable for himself, compared to the sword, he prefers to use a long-handled weapon, or a long knife, the kind that can stab people to death from forty meters away, what is important is a practicality.
Thinking of this, Shen Yi raised his head and asked Tsurumi Chuyun, "Old witch." ”
"Huh?"
"You're not going to make me a hood?"
Hearing this, Tsuru saw that Hatsuyun had a headache, rubbed her forehead, and she could only put down the book and get up and move over a dusty table.
"Okay, okay, I'll do it for you."
Placing the necessary tools on the table, she took out the gum that had been solidified and compared it to the appearance of the cold-armored ranger beast on the table, carving it with a slash or smearing it with paint.
But it didn't take long for her to seem to notice something and looked at Shen Yi sharply.
Shen Yi was also puzzled, and just wanted to ask her what he was doing, but soon he understood her eyes, and immediately spread his senses and felt towards the crack in the door.
Sure enough, there were a few more people standing outside the door now, and they didn't need to think about it to know that it was Wu Gong and them.
"Harm~" sighed, and Tsurumi Hatsukumo stood up again and walked to the door to open it.
The atmosphere froze suddenly, and she looked at Wu Gong and the others, with the word speechless written on her face.
"What are you doing?"
"I didn't ...... Nothing, that...... Has the Dan been refined? Wu Gong's tone was embarrassed, and after hearing this, Tsurumi Chuyun rolled his eyes.
That's too impatient, isn't it?
However, Tsurumi Hatsuyun turned his head and glanced at the Dan furnace, thinking that the time was almost up, so he didn't say anything, and immediately walked to the Dan furnace, bent down and looked inside a few times through the observation port.
The Dan furnace she uses now is not the best Dan furnace, and the places that can be seen through the observation mouth are limited, and she can't see all of them clearly.
With the high temperature of the air flow constantly swirling and circulating inside the Dan furnace, the original material of the Beast Pill had been melted into a pool of transparent liquid, floating in the middle.
She didn't speak, but she felt it, and the Dan fire at the bottom of the Dan Furnace disappeared in an instant, and the white light smoke rising from the top of the Dan Furnace also thinned out at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After the white smoke disappeared completely, she immediately opened the lid, and the current Tsurumi Hatsuyun was no longer a young chick who had just started alchemy, and a series of movements were extremely smooth, without a little mud and water.
Because she had already broken through to the net level, after refining the pill, she no longer needed to use tools or ask Shen Yi to dig it out like before, but directly controlled the release of spiritual power from her body and used spiritual power to take out the pill.
After the Dan furnace was opened, the temperature inside cooled rapidly, and the newly formed Yun Beast Pill inside was held by an invisible force, and flew out one after another.
The eyes of several people outside the door also widened.
"One."
"Two."
"Three."
"Three."
"It's already four, will you fucking count?"
"Don't make noise, shut the dog's mouth!"
"How many?"
"Six."
"Seven."
“……”
"Twelve."
"Thirteen!"
"Fourteen!"
"Fifteen!"
"Nope."
"Fifteen! So much? ”
“……”
Tsurumi Chuyun quietly took the fifteen Beast Pills, then took out two of them and handed them to Wu Gong.
"It's yours."
Wu Gong hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, feeling the temperature of the two Beast Pills transmitted to the palm of his hand, he couldn't help but get excited.
Pills or something, although he has not been in contact with it well, but this kind of freshly refined pill is the first time he has come into contact with it.
"How's it going, boss?"
"Hot."
"Hot? Let me touch ...... Yo! It's really hot! ”
"I'll touch it too."
"And me!"
"Get out of the way, I'll come first."
Several people scrambled to feel the temperature carried by this freshly baked Yun Beast Pill, and the scene became chaotic for a while, until Tsurumi Hatsumo came to the front, Wu Gong and the others stopped.
"Okay, the pills are all given to you, go back to sleep, and besides, I won't be able to refine the pill later, don't bother me."
"Will you refine the pill tomorrow?"
"Lian."
"That's good, then we'll go back, you have a good rest."
"Hmm." Tsurumi Hatsukumo nodded, and closed the door again after watching them leave.
Glancing at Shen Yi, she only left two Beast Pills, and the remaining eleven were all handed to him.
"Here you go, eat."
Shen Yi took it slowly, and then threw the Yun Beast Pill into his mouth one by one like knocking his claws.
And after Tsurumi Hatsuyun finished this, he returned to the table and continued to make the head covering, and Shen Yi didn't bother her, lying lazily on the side.
It's just that Wu Gong and the others are nearby, and this night is destined not to be quiet.
After only a few minutes of silence, there was the sound of them shouting, followed by Duan Huai's screams.
Tsuru saw that Chuyun didn't want to pay attention, so he was unmoved, but Shen Yi was a little interested, so he lay by the door and eavesdropped on it, and it didn't take long for him to return to the same place with a bored face.
As for what happened?
How can I say it, didn't Tsurumi Hatsuun say that every time he refines a furnace of elixir, he will give them two?
Then Wu Gong and the others discussed, and they took turns to divide the two pills given by Tsurumi Chuyun, starting with Wu Gong and Wu Sheng, then Duan Huai and Chen Jintian, and finally Kuang Kang and Wang Zhongzhu.
The two Beast Pills this time were divided equally between Wu Gong and Wu Sheng, and the next time Tsurumi Chuyun refined a furnace of pills, two of them were divided equally between Duan Huai and Chen Jintian, and so on.
But after the two Beast Pills arrived, Wu Gong directly changed his mind, saying that the pills must have their own share, leaving only one pill for the five people to take turns.
In this way, the others definitely disagreed, so they all refused, but where did they say Wu Gong? It didn't take long for him to be persuaded by Wu Gong Physics, and Duan Huai, who had always been opposed, was carried by Wu Gong and thrown down from the attic.
After that, Wang Zhongzhu said: "The boss is okay with everything else, but he is too picky." As soon as he finished speaking, he was also thrown downstairs by Wu Gong.
As soon as he lay down, Tsuru turned his head and asked curiously, "What's the matter with them?" ”
Shen Yi shook his head: "It's nothing." With that, he closed his eyes.
……
Several people, a few horses, galloped on the road day and night, and one of them suddenly stopped, puzzled: "Boss, this seems to be Shekou?" ”
Wu Gong also swept around, the world is changing too fast, and he doesn't know this place anymore.
"It's Shekou."
"Then Ruyi Bay is not far away."
"Let's go and have a look." Wu Gong beckoned, and led the people to ride into the valley below.
A few days after coming out of Huaiying City, they had enough food and grass on their bodies, so they didn't need to go to Ruyi Bay, but they all came, and Ruyi Bay may not have been there for a long time, so it might as well go and take a look.
Others didn't object, and it didn't matter if Tsurumi Hatsukumo did.
But just as they followed Wu Gong through the mountains and forests and down the wide river to a cracked stone bridge, they stopped again.
Wu Gong looked ahead and was silent.
The barren fields were full of deep rut marks, broken halberds were buried in the soil but partially exposed, leaving a slight aura of slaughter, and large and small potholes scattered on the wasteland, filled with the smell of ashes and rotten flesh.
He didn't know the lush mountains and rivers flowing in the mountains, he only knew that the small town in his impression no longer existed, only a dilapidated place.
Alas~
