Chapter 49: Stray Dogs
Lu Guoguo held an ordinary white porcelain vase in his hand and looked at it carefully.
It contains the fruits of her labor last night and all day during the day, and there are 36 pieces in it.
Originally, she planned to end the practice until dawn, but the three of them were so good that they completely ignored the time, and when they realized it, the next day was almost over, if it weren't for Lu Guoguo almost fainting because of hunger, I don't know how long it would take.
Except for the first furnace that only produced one pill at the beginning of refining, the next few furnaces of quenching pills ranged from 3 to 5 pills, and when they reached the last furnace, a full eight pills were produced!
The elixir was refined, but Lu Guoguo was a little apprehensive.
This is something related to whether she can continue to practice in the future, although it is an improvement on the prescription given by the Void Child, and according to the alchemy situation, it is undoubtedly done, but she is still a little unsure, after all, no one has tried this medicine, whether it has the effect of quenching the body, what is the effect, etc., these are unknown before no one tries it, and she does not dare to guarantee that she is very sure, what are the side effects if she can't do it?
On the other side, the knifeless guest had already gone back, and the empty man had also returned to the room to meditate and recover because he was too tired in the past two days, and there was no one to discuss, Lu Guoguo pinched his chin and looked at it for a long time, as if he was thinking.
She hadn't slept for two days, and she had been working at high intensity for the past two days, which was still a little unbearable for her current body.
At noon the next day, Lu Guoguo woke up leisurely, and his stomach was growling with hunger.
As an ordinary person, this is not good, you need to take in energy regularly, otherwise there will be problems in the body.
Lu Guoguo has been in the valley for many years, and he has long forgotten the feeling of being hungry, and this time he has re-experienced it, how to say it, the feeling is very subtle, it will feel like a trouble and burden, but there is a feeling of being alive again.
After a brief lunch, he took out the bottle of refined quenching pill again and looked at it carefully.
Or...... Try?
I don't think I can eat the dead, right?
Should?
She sighed heavily, then put the bottle back in her pocket and got up and headed out for the city.
Now she can't take risks, after all, she no longer has the capital to fail, the opportunity is this time, if something goes wrong, then she will really play it completely, and there is no chance to turn over again, but she still wants to leave half her life to go back to see the ancestor!
When I arrived in the city, Lu Guoguo first went to the supermarket on the side of the road to buy an umbrella, and after inquiring all the way, he finally came to a large flower and bird market.
The rain is heavy and it is not early, but there are still many vendors who have not yet cleaned up their stalls, in addition to all kinds of potted flowers and plants, there are also all kinds of small animals, the most common are goldfish, turtles, hamsters and the like, but also small milk dogs, rabbits and kittens.
She had planned to buy a small animal like a guinea pig and go back for an experiment first.
There are not many animals here, but after walking around, Lu Guoguo was stunned and didn't choose, just blamed these little creatures for being too cute, and she couldn't do it for a while.
"Do you really want to try the medicine yourself?"
Looking at the piles of cute little animals, Lu Guoguo finally gave up.
"Alas, try it yourself, at most, it's a big deal to waste a few Soul Rejuvenation Pills. ”
Just when Lu Guoguo had already made up his mind, a dirty stray dog caught Lu Guoguo's attention.
It was a half-sized stray dog, looking a little thin and dirty, and it was no longer able to see the color.
It walked lonely in the rain, splashed with rain and mud, and people avoided it far away when they saw it, for fear that the dirty thing would get on it.
There are a few bear children in the neighborhood eating steaming buns, playing in the rain with umbrellas and rain boots, and it seems that they should live nearby.
Seeing the stray dog coming in this direction, several people muttered a few words and walked up to the stray dog with a grin.
Xu thought that someone was going to feed him, and the stray dog raised his head and looked at the buns in the hands of several people expectantly, wagging his tail vigorously.
When the stray dog wagged his tail, one of the children did not hesitate to stomp on the puddle and jumped away.
A large piece of foul-smelling dirty water splashed the stray dog, and it was so frightened that it screamed and ran away to the other side, looking at several people with sad eyes and drooping its tail.
As if seeing something very funny, several people covered their stomachs and laughed, seeing that the stray dog did not attack themselves, several people became more and more bold, one of the children actually picked up a stone on the ground, and then slammed it towards the stray dog, the stone grazed the body of the stray dog and flew over, hit the fish tank on the side, the fish tank shattered in response, and a large number of small goldfish scattered out of the tank.
The fish tank was placed at the door, and the owner went out when he heard the sound in the house, and saw that there was a dirty stray dog standing at the door, and he looked like he had done something wrong, so he naturally thought that it had done it, and hit it with a broom, and kept cursing in his mouth.
The stray dog could only run away with his tail between his legs after whimpering a few times, and as for the bear children, they had already run away as fast as they could after seeing themselves in trouble.
Lu Guoguo clenched his fists and chased in the direction where the stray dog ran away.
In a small alley, Lu Guoguo finally found the stray dog, which was lying in a cardboard box next to the garbage can, which had fallen apart due to the soaking of rainwater.
Hearing the movement outside, the stray dog stood up vigilantly, grinning at Lu Guoguo, and making a warning sound in his mouth.
Lu Guoguo tried her best to appease, every time she took a step forward, the stray dog took a step back, stalemate to the back, and the momentum of the stray dog gradually withered.
When Lu Guoguo came to it, its ears and head drooped.
"Woo~~~"
Lu Guoguo put the umbrella aside, slowly squatted down, and then raised his hand.
Thinking that the other party was trying to hurt himself, the stray dog trembled in fright.
"Don't be afraid. ”
Lu Guoguo gently put her hand on the top of its head and stroked it back and forth, not too dirty at all.
After touching it back and forth a few times, it raised its head timidly, looked at Lu Guoguo's eyes, and seemed to sense that the other party had no malicious intentions, so it carefully licked Lu Guoguo's palm.
There was a soft and warm touch in his palm, and Lu Guoguo smiled happily.
Seeing that Lu Guoguo was not disgusted, but smiled, the stray dog became bolder, and it happily rubbed its head on Lu Guoguo's body.
Lu Guoguo didn't dislike it at all, and after teasing it for a while, he hugged it and went to the nearest pet hospital.
Before I went, I took the time to call the empty man and asked him to pick him up, and bring a set of clothes by the way.
In the hospital, not only did I bathe the dog, but I also gave an injection, and by the way, I did a full body examination.
After a set of procedures were done, the empty dog also arrived quickly, and Lu Guoguo changed his clothes and bought a lot of dog food, leashes, toys, kennel and a series of other items before holding the stray dog and getting into the empty child's car.
When night falls, the lights come on, and at this time, the rain stops.
Xu had experienced too much turmoil, and the stray dog was already very tired, and he fell asleep on Lu Guoguo's lap after getting into the car.
