"Do you feel a warm current surging through your body?" the old man suddenly asked Shaoyu.

As soon as the old man said this, Shao Yu realized that he felt a little hot and swollen just now, could it be a side effect of this plant?

Thinking of this, Shao Yu hurriedly nodded, and said, "Since I ate this plant just now, I feel that my whole body is a little hot and a little swollen, why is this? Could it be that this plant has side effects?"

The old man looked at Shao Yu and smiled kindly, "Very good, you don't need to know too much, you just need to know that you have taken another step towards success, and that's enough." ”

With that, the old man turned around and continued to work.

However, the old man's words kept echoing in Shao Yu's ears, making Shao Yu feel a little strange.

"Success, what success?" Shao Yu looked at the old man's back, didn't say much, and hurriedly got to work, if he was seen by those hired guards, he was afraid that he would not be able to eat and walk around.

But it's strange to say, since eating that plant, Shao Yu felt as if his body was full of endless power, as if there was infinite energy hidden in his body, so that he could always have the strength to work.

Since then, Shao Yu's speed and efficiency have been much faster than before, and his body seems to have become lighter, and he has no trouble walking at all.

"Strange, why is it feeling better and better lately?" Shao Yu was a little puzzled, he had eaten less recently, but his body seemed to have become stronger.

Finally, Shao Yu couldn't suppress his curiosity, found the old man and asked, "Old man, why do I feel that my body has become stronger and stronger recently? Also, what is that kind of thing you gave me to eat, why haven't I seen it before?"

However, the old man just smiled and did not speak, as if he deliberately avoided Shaoyu's question.

"Old man, I said can you stop laughing, I really want to know what this plant is and what kind of effect it has, just tell me. "Shaoyu's attitude is very sincere and humble.

The old man looked at Shao Yu and smiled for a long time before he slowly said, "This thing is called dragon beard grass, which can have a effect of making people's bones better, and now you have taken a considerable amount of dragon beard grass, and your body has undergone qualitative changes, and now you are not the same as before." ”

After listening to the old man's words, Shaoyu was still a little puzzled, "What do you mean by me now, I am no longer the same as before?"

"I mean, now you have been reborn and become stronger, and now you are not the cowardly you you were when you first came in. The old man said, and the smile in his eyes intensified.

And at this moment, a hired guard saw Shao Yu and the old man who were talking, and immediately rushed over, "You two, what are you doing there? Why don't you work hard, and dare to talk secretly!"

As he spoke, the low-level mercenary guard raised the rattan weave in his hand and threw it at the old man's back. Seeing this, Shaoyu immediately rushed over and blocked behind the old man.

"Smack!", and the long whip landed on Shao Yu's back, leaving a long scratch. It's just that Shao Yu has a normal expression and a natural expression, as if the hired guards are not fighting him.

"Yo, I can't see it, you kid is quite durable, if you can catch my ten whips today, I'll spare you!" The hired guard suddenly withdrew his hand and looked at Shao Yu and the old man with a slightly playful smile.

"Okay!" Shao Yu didn't hesitate, puffed up his chest, and walked towards the hired guard, "Come on, hit me, don't move that old man." ”

Shaoyu's words reached the ears of the old man, and he saw the old man laughing happily, as if he was not worried about Shaoyu at all, "The son can be taught." ”

"Old bones, did I let you speak? If you don't work hard for me again, I'll kill you, and let you rely on the old and sell the old again!" The low-level mercenary guard didn't know how to respect the old and love the young at all, and glared at the old man viciously and scolded.

"Don't hit him, hit me if you want to!" Shao Yu said, spreading his hands and blocking the front of the old man.

The low-level mercenary guard was originally angry, but when he saw Shao Yu, all his anger and resentment were sprinkled on Shao Yu's body, "Okay, you little rabbit cub, since you are looking for death, Lao Tzu will fulfill you!"

As he spoke, the low-level mercenary guard raised the rattan weaving in his hand, and with all his strength, he smashed it towards Shao Yu's body.

"Bang bang!" The whip first hit Shao Yu's chest, then bounced off Shao Yu's arm, and finally wiped Shao Yu's forearm.

But Shao Yu just stood like this, blocking in front of the old man, his eyes were full of resolute gaze, "There are still nine times!"

"You're still breathing, aren't you?" said the low-level mercenary guard, waving the long whip in his hand at the same time, and fiercely swung it towards Shao Yu again, "Give me death!"

The long whip landed on Shao Yu's body, and the sound was even clearer.

But Shao Yu didn't even frown, and looked at the low-level mercenary guards with a comfortable expression. In the eyes of the low-level mercenary guards, Shao Yu was completely despising himself.

"If you don't beg for mercy again, I sue you, if you don't beg for mercy again, I won't show mercy!" The words of the low-level mercenary guard seemed to be guiding Shao Yu to beg for mercy, but Shao Yu was unmoved, raised his head, and adhered to his own principles.

"Okay, you kid has a kind!" The low-level mercenary guard trotted and whipped at Shao Yu, his eyes full of viciousness, as if he wanted to whip Shao Yu in half.

"If you have the ability, you will smoke me to death!" Shao Yu did not have a trace of fear, but provoked towards the low-level mercenary guards. This made the onlookers on the side very puzzled, wondering if Shaoyu was crazy.

However, only Shao Yu knew that he was not crazy, but that the whip of the low-level mercenary guard fell on his body, and there was really no pain, just an itchy feeling, and that's it.

Moreover, on Shao Yu's body, the whip did not leave too heavy scars at all, just a light red trace.

In other words, the long whip of the low-level mercenary guard had no meaning at all for Shao Yu, and it was not lethal.

It's just that the only person who knows about this is Shaoyu himself. Maybe the old man also knew, because Shao Yu always felt that this change in himself started after taking that plant.
