The absorption of vampire vine comes at the cost of reducing the host's essence.

The basic attribute of the priest is the lowest in the whole class, and he has the ability to recover himself, and cultivating the vampire vine must be the least expensive and the fastest.

So as soon as he thought of this, Yuan Chenfei regretted a little that he had kept the vampire vine for himself.

But it doesn't matter, the quality of things like vampire vines is not very important, and it's too late to help junior high six get one after the third stage opens.

Just as he was thinking about it, Liu Li walked over.

Throw him a knife.

Crested Tail Knife.

"Here you go. Liu Li said.

"What are you doing for me? It's your spoils. Yuan Chenfei pushed it back to her.

"I have the Blade of Nothingness. Although the phoenix tail knife is very strong, it does not match my tactics. Liu Li replied.

Liu Li knows very well that no matter how good the equipment is, it must be suitable. Although the phoenix tail knife is strong, it is not suitable for use, and it cannot match the tactical artifact, and it is all scum.

Yuan Chenfei also understood, and said: "Then take it and sell it, exchange it for some blood, and strengthen yourself." ”

"You really don't want to?" asked Liu Li.

Yuan Chenfei shook his head.

Liu Li didn't like it, got up and left.

"She's still angry when she gives her the artifact, you women are really unpredictable. Next to him, Li Zhanjun said with a smile.

Xia Ning pouted: "You know a fart, a man who doesn't understand amorous feelings." ”

Only women understand women.

Although she is not familiar with Liu Li, in the past two days of getting along, Xia Ning has also seen some clues.

At this time, Liu Li was sitting on a big rock and sulking.

Xia Ning walked over and stood beside her.

"Sit. Liu Li pointed to the empty space next to the big stone and said to her.

"Thanks, no need, I like to stand. Xia Ning said.

"Yes, I heard Brother Fei say that you are a girl who can stand without sitting. Why, do you have long legs?" Liu Li smiled.

In fact, Liu Li's height is not short, but compared with Xia Ning, who is 1.83 meters tall, there is still a gap after all.

Xia Ning didn't answer Liu Li's question, but said lightly: "Yes, when Feizi was with me, he rarely talked about other women." I'm really not used to what he says about me. ”

"But he left you anyway. Liu Li said.

"It was I who left him. Xia Ning replied.

But it made him bear the name of a negative man. ”

The two women looked at each other at this moment.

In the calm tone, there was a faint hint of competition, like two lions fighting for territory.

Xia Ning suddenly laughed.

"Are you complaining about him?" she asked.

Liu Li's face was slightly red, and just as he was about to say something, Xia Ning had already said, "Feizi is a very interesting person. He has always felt that a real man should have a heroic demeanor, a decisive temperament, a deceitful mind, and a fierce and vicious mind. So pick out the heroes in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and let him choose, his favorite is Cao Cao and Sima Yi, not Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. But the fun is the funny, and although he approves of such people, he can't do it himself. He is the kind of person who wants to be a cold and selfish person, but he can't do it, and he can't do it well. I still remember one time when I was walking down the street with him. On a snowy day, we saw a beggar on the side of the road. Feizi said that the beggar was actually quite rich, at least richer than him. His poverty is a disguise, so don't pity him. But as we walked along, he looked back at the beggar, walked over and gave him five dollars. I asked him why he did this when he knew he wasn't really poor. He said, no matter what, in this cold winter weather, the sin of coming out to beg is real. He paid, how much ...... It's time to harvest some too. ”

Speaking of this, Xia Ning smiled: "Look, this is Feizi." I always want to be a cold person, but I can't do it. This makes his behavior always full of contradictions. ”

Liu Li understood what she meant: "So that's why Brother Fei is willing to bear the charge for you?"

"I'm not explaining anything to you. In this era, it is normal for young couples to be separated and reunited, where is there any real negative man? In the end, it is just that some people can't get used to him and forcibly plant crimes. Feizi doesn't care, he has a smile on everything, this is his generosity. Of course, if you want to say that my belly is black, I don't care. ”

Xia Ning looked at Liu Li, and then smiled: "Actually, for so many years, I haven't forgotten Feizi. Now that he's back, it seems that he still has some old feelings for me, so I'm wondering if I should rekindle my old relationship with him. ”

Liu Li's eyes widened.

Seeing her like that, Xia Ning smiled more and more happily.

She changed her words: "His heart is not here. ”

Liu Li froze, Xia Ning had already turned his head to look into the distance: "My heart is not here." A new era has arrived, and we have to face the wind and waves in this new time, so we don't have time to think about those things about the love of children. It's not like you, you can see ......."

"Hmph. Liu Li turned his head.

Xia Ning said leisurely: "But have you thought about it, maybe what Feizi needs is not a woman who can see openly, but a girl who can accompany him all the way to the end." ”

Liu Li was stunned.

She had never thought about this before.

It wasn't until Xia Ning proposed it that she realized what she had overlooked.

Yes, she just wants to be an ordinary woman, not to think about the future, and to be a druid, she is very content.

But is Yuan Chenfei that kind of person?

Apparently he wasn't.

While she was content to stay where she was, Yuan Chenfei was trying to rush forward.

So......

Is this why he rejected himself?

As soon as she thought of this, Liu Li gradually became so engrossed that she couldn't even hear what Xia Ning said.

This is the first real in-depth conversation between the two women, from the slight hostility at the beginning, to the later enlightenment, Xia Ning easily completed the reversal of the situation.

As she said, Liu Li is a good girl, but she and Yuan Chenfei are not at the same height.

This is not only a question of starting point, but also a different destined end point with different goals.

Liu Li originally had a hostility towards Xia Ning, but Xia Ning's reflection in three or two sentences can only say that the levels are different, and Liu Li is destined to be Xia Ning's opponent.

However, no matter how high Xia Ning's level is, no matter how full the goddess fan is, Yuan Chenfei doesn't seem to take it to heart.

He once loved Xia Ning deeply.

But Xia Ning's choice broke his heart.

Although it has always been said that women do not value power and status, but the family, the man.

But the truth is that the new women of the new era, who value positions of power, abound.

Xia Ning is such a woman.

She has the appearance of a goddess, but she never plans to eat by her appearance.

She has her own ambitions.

So she will finally choose to obey her father and give up Yuan Chenfei.

As for being with Yuan Chenfei now, the more reason is that Yuan Chenfei is strong enough to bring her all kinds of valuable information.

Of course, it is impossible to say that there are no feelings.

In the battle with the black blade, both Xia Ning and Yuan Chenfei showed enough concern.

But feelings belong to feelings, and pursuit belongs to pursuit.

Movies can be black and white, but in reality, emotions are often mixed with rationality.

Xia Ning and Yuan Chenfei are like this.

They appreciate each other, like each other, and need each other, but after all, it is not the kind of love that must be done by each other.

That's the reality.

Now they are unwilling to pursue love, the game of the gods has just begun, there are infinite possibilities in the future, and no one wants to trap themselves.

Love is wonderful, but it is also a shackle, which can become a weakness of the strongman, a shackle to fly.

Realizing this, Liu Li gradually understood.

She said, "How much blood do you think the phoenix tail knife can sell?"

Hearing this, Xia Ning smiled.

——————————————————

It's getting dark.

The first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon, and with the help of the faint light, the earth could be seen to be still scorched black.

Not a blood-stained land, but a scorched and dusk plague land.

There was a faint faint yellow smoke that was hard to see with the naked eye on the earth, lingering.

This is a side effect of the use of the Scourge Cloud, which is gone, but not completely. The land it infested has forever become a plague land.

From today on, this land will be devoid of grass, and not only that, but if ordinary people enter this land, they will also be easily infected with diseases.

Necromancers will like it more here, because it will give them a certain amount of bonuses, including energy and health recovery speed, reaction time, and even the efficiency of refining undead.

"This is the price of using the Tower of Black Death props, creating a plague land that mortals can't enter?" Li Siwen asked Yuan Chenfei.

"Hmm. Yuan Chenfei nodded lightly: "Not only that, but the plague land also has a certain spread, and it will expand every year, just like the fungus blanket of the Zerg Clan, the desertified land, expanding every year...... Unless you use a treasure such as the Spring of Youth, you can wash away the pollution. And this is already a treasure with the least cost. ”

Li Siwen's face turned pale: "I took the crystal and the token." ”

"I know. "Yuan Chenfei is not surprised.

In the Tower of Black Death, Yuan Chenfei left, leaving only Li Siwen.

He didn't see if Li Siwen had taken those two things, but he still knew.

Because of Li Siwen's later performance.

His heart was weak, and he didn't dare to look directly at Yuan Chenfei.

Until this moment of voluntary admittion.

"Why don't you stop me?" asked Li Siwen.

"I've used the natural calamity cloud myself, so what qualifications do I have to stop you?" Yuan Chenfei said leisurely: "I'm not a moral pacesetter, what I can't do, don't ask others." In fact, even if you can do it yourself, it's best not to ask others at will, because you can't really put yourself in the other person's shoes. ”

Li Siwen bowed his head: "I want to be stronger!"

"It's men who want to be strong. "Yuan Chen Feidao.

He looked at Li Siwen and said, "Do you know how those two things are used?"

Li Siwen nodded: "The token is the Nether Order, which can transform into Nether Guards. Crystals are soul-detaining crystals that can imprison a person's soul, constantly torture, and obtain information. But I don't know what their side effects are. ”

Yuan Chenfei said: "The Nether Order can only transform the living. If used by a Necromancer, each transformed Nether Guardian has a corrosive effect similar to that of the Scourge Cloud. If used by a non-necromancer, Nether Guardian will not have this trait, but the user will gradually transform into an undead, forming a half-human, half-undead. You are a Rogue and may eventually evolve into a spin-off class, the Undead Thief. ”

Li Siwen's face turned pale: "What about the Soul Detention Crystal?"

Yuan Chenfei replied: "That thing is the most terrifying. It is used to imprison the soul of man, and no matter how strong-willed he is, he will confide in the truth when he is trapped in this crystal. However, as the number of uses increases, the user's humanity will gradually be distorted, and eventually it will become more and more evil. The Scourge Cloud makes a land unsuitable for mortals, the Nether Order kills a large number of innocent people, and the Soul Crystal directly turns the user into a demon...... Well, if you use the Nether Order after becoming a devil, it is estimated that there will be no psychological burden. ”

Li Siwen gasped. He thought for a moment and said, "I promise, I won't use them." ”

"If you don't want to use it, you shouldn't have it in the first place. Yuan Chenfei replied.
