Xie Wule's trip to the Beast Mountain Range still didn't encounter any spiritual beasts, and the process of collecting medicine went smoothly.
"This mountain range of beasts is really not worthy of its name. They say there are many spiritual beasts. Anyway, I have never encountered them once." Xie Wule put the herbs in his hand into his bag, wandered for a few times and prepared to return to the Longhu Gang.
After walking not far, I suddenly saw a bag falling on the ground in front of me, and a lot of medicinal materials were scattered on the ground from the mouth of the bag.
Xie Wule stepped forward and saw that the medicinal materials on the ground were almost dry, and the medicinal materials in the bag were also listless. It seems that this bag of medicinal materials has been left here for a while.
Rather than letting it go to waste, it is better to save yourself.
Not bad luck today.
Xie Wule left the medicinal materials that he could barely recover in the bag, threw the rest on the ground, picked up the bag and left.
Coming out of the mission hall, Xie Wule looked at the token in his hand, puzzled.
Previously, I had a total of 2,580 points, and I just exchanged the two bags of medicinal materials for a total of 4,000 points. After deducting the 80 points for my own expenses, I should have 6,500 points now.
Why do I only have 5,500 points? Where did the other 1,000 points go?
Xie Wule couldn't figure it out. It was precisely because of his inexplicable lack of 1,000 points that he was one step further away from the Longhu Gang.
After all, it's not just his own points that are increasing, Yin Tengfei's points have now exceeded five digits!
I still have to work harder.
Thinking back on his experiences in the past few days, he successfully gathered new alien veins, but due to his greed for success and rash advancement, he fell into a coma. When I woke up, I found that my lost Zhen Qi was somehow filled up, and I also picked up medicinal materials left behind by others in the Beast Mountain Range. Now I find that my points are inexplicably 1,000 less.
Xie Wule smiled helplessly, as if he had some realization, and murmured: "Misfortune lies on the back of blessing, and blessing lies on the misfortune..."
The glimmer of light in the upper dantian suddenly flashed, and the light became brighter. Xie Wule reached the master's level.
Xie Wule returned to the compound, and unexpectedly ran into Luonan who had returned in front of the compound.
Luonan, dressed in lavender gauze, just opened the courtyard door gently and looked around to observe something. Next to her, there was a long knife almost as tall as her, leaning against the wall.
The blade of this knife is three fingers wide and has a slight curvature. At the same time, the handle accounts for one third of the entire knife. The blade is silver and shiny, and the back of the blade is as black as ink. Compared with Luonan's slender figure, the combination of the two seems very strange.
"Miss Luonan, what a coincidence."
Luonan was startled by Xie Wule's greetings. Luonan turned around, faced Xie Wule and leaned towards the long knife. He avoided his eyes and said nervously: "Hey, Xie Wule, hello. Why are you here?"
"I just came back from the Beast Mountain Range and happened to meet Miss Luonan. I'll go change my clothes first." Xie Wule also saw that Luonan was embarrassed for some reason at the moment, and walked into the courtyard without talking to her.
Seeing Xie Wule leaving, Luonan breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the long knife, and entered the courtyard.
Xie Wule changed his clothes and came out. He saw Luonan sitting in his room. Although he was staying at her house, he was still a little shocked: "Is Miss Luonan looking for something to do with me?"
Luonan glanced at Xie Wule, whose hair was still a little wet, and immediately looked away, his pretty face heating up slightly: "Did you see it?"
Luonan's voice was very low. After Xie Wule advanced to the master level, his body functions have improved in all aspects. Now he can barely hear it clearly. Thinking back to the beginning of Luonan's strange behavior, he asked: "I wonder what Miss Luonan is talking about?" That long knife of yours?”
After listening to Xie Wule's words, Luo Nan only felt his face getting hotter and his head lowered unconsciously: "You really saw it!"
"Miss Luonan, what's going on?" Xie Wule was confused by Luonan's abnormal behavior and asked.
Luonan took several deep breaths and finally calmed down a little, but still did not dare to look up at Xie Wule: "Xie Wule, let me ask you a question."
"Miss Luonan, please speak."
"That's right, um, do you think it's weird that I'm holding that long knife?"
Xie Wule now understood why Luonan had to hide when she returned to her home. It turned out that she didn't want others to see her long knife: "This is the first time I have seen a blade like this. I was a little surprised at first, but I didn't It doesn’t feel that strange. Moreover, everyone uses different weapons, so Miss Luonan doesn’t need to care too much about other people’s opinions.”
Hearing what Xie Wule said, Luonan seemed to feel better. He hesitated and said a little aggrievedly: "I thought so too at first, but since someone said it looked very strange once, it's hard for me not to Stop caring about other people’s eyes.”
Xie Wule couldn't help but smile. Luonan usually looked carefree, but he didn't expect to care so much about other people's opinions of him. He joked: "Who said that? Miss Luonan, you are so powerful, why not beat that talkative person and shout He should mind his own business."
"That's not possible. Let's not say whether I can beat him or not. Then why am I as arrogant as you said?" Luonan asked anxiously.
"Apart from Brother Zuo Yi, are there any other people who are not opponents to Miss Luonan? If they still dare to say you are arrogant, then beat them again so that they dare not say anything more." Xie Wule continued to laugh.
Luonan was a little anxious. She knew that she could not speak to Xie Wule, but she still tried to explain the truth clearly to him: "Xie Wule, that's not right. You just look at it based on the ranking on the Dragon and Tiger list, but on the Dragon and Tiger list, It’s not necessarily the fifty strongest people.”
"There are also many powerful helpers who are not so keen on tasks. They usually just do a few things to protect themselves, and spend the rest of their time practicing. So they don't have many points, so they can't go up. List."
"Thirteenth on the Dragon and Tiger List might not be the opponent of thirty on the Dragon and Tiger List!"
"So, besides Zuo Yi, there are many people in the gang who are stronger than me. I can't beat them either."
Xie Wule listened and nodded thoughtfully. He didn't expect that the Dragon and Tiger List turned out to be like this. Originally, I thought that more points meant stronger strength. After all, the stronger you are, the easier it will be to complete tasks. At the same time, you can also take on tasks with more points and higher cultivation requirements.
Now I realize that not everyone is as eager for points as I am.
"Also, if I beat someone up because of what they said, then I will appear to be arrogant and unreasonable; not because I will beat up someone else because they say I am arrogant and unreasonable."
"As long as I don't beat others easily, no one will say that I am arrogant and unreasonable. You are wrong about this logical relationship." Luonan finally said everything he was thinking.
Seeing how hard Luonan was trying to explain, Xie Wule stopped teasing her and said: "Miss Luonan, in fact, other people's opinions don't matter. You just need to be yourself. Besides, people who would say this about you must be They are also a minority. Most people will not judge others easily. Even if they are dissatisfied, they will be restrained by human etiquette and will not speak out. "
"Since you haven't said it out loud, you don't have to care so much."
Luonan nodded after a moment: "Xie Wule, what you said makes some sense."
"Really, how many people are talking about you?"
"one."
Xie Wule asked subconsciously. As soon as he asked the question, he immediately realized that he was a little rude. He was about to apologize, but Luonan had already given the answer.
"One?!" This answer surprised Xie Wule. I sighed in my heart, then this person talks too much, I want to see who this person is, and I have to stay away from him when I meet him in the future, so as not to end up in trouble: "Miss Luonan, do you still remember who this person is?" ?"
"Of course I remember, you still know Xie Wule, he is Zuo Yi." Luonan replied.
Brother Zuo? ! ! Another answer that Xie Wule didn't expect.
"Brother Zuo Yi is outspoken, please don't mind Miss Luonan." Xie Wule didn't expect it to be Zuo Yi. Just now he was talking nonsense, but now he is immediately trying to smooth things over for others.
It seems that we also understand why Zuo Yi did not participate in the gang competition, and Luo Nan did not participate either...
I only know Zuo Yi and Luonan in the Longhu Gang. If there is a problem in their relationship, then I will not be the one in the middle.
Xie Wule once again realized how selfish he was in his heart. He said he sounded nice, but his actions were extremely double-standard. I hope everything will develop in a direction that is beneficial to you.
"Did Zuo Yi say that? In the past, he would only scold me. He said I was stupid, easily deceived and so on." Luo Nan's pretty face turned red obviously and she whispered.
Seeing Luonan's reaction, Xie Wule breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was just worrying. Luonan and Zuo Yi have known each other for a long time, and I don't know what happened during that period, but their relationship is definitely not bad.
In other words, the relationship between the two is not simple. A woman likes her appearance, and Luonan has been caring about him for many years just because of Zuo's words. It is rare to see Luonan carrying a long knife. The inconvenience may be part of it, but it is more. Probably because of what Zuo Yi said.
But now it seems that the relationship between the two is not as Xie Wule thought, so Xie Wule doesn't think about it anymore.
After a while, Luonan recovered, raised his head sharply, and looked at Xie Wule: "I have been focusing on improving my strength recently, and I almost forgot that you still owe me a few times to set up the energy-taking array!"
As he spoke, Luonan grabbed Xie Wule's arm and dragged him to the side of the mission hall.
This is an alley. On weekdays, many people who have just returned from missions rest here, but now that the gang competition is approaching, everyone is practicing more, so there are no people here.
Luonan checked the surroundings again and nodded with satisfaction: "It's here this time. There are no people in many places now. There are only a few in the mission hall, and more elders in the mission hall are preparing to meet with them. Things related to the gang competition have gone, so we don’t have to worry too much about being discovered.”
"Let's start!" Luonan took out a small bag and threw it to Xie Wule.
Xie Wule took it without saying a word and started taking action. After setting up the intermediate Qi-taking array several times, Xie Wule was now very comfortable in setting it up and completed the formation in a short time.
He turned his hand and made a Dao Seal, thirty Qi stones flashed brightly one by one, and all the true Qi in the Qi stones were taken out.
Just when Xie Wule was about to try to break the formation seal, suddenly his vision went dark, and a person stood between Xie Wule and the Qi Qi Formation.
Xie Wule was shocked and immediately jumped back to look at the person.
The middle-aged man glanced at the Qi-taking formation behind him out of the corner of his eye, and then focused his gaze on Xie Wule.
