He Rouyu's room occupies the entire fourth floor, a large room that is both a bedroom and a warehouse.
I counted with my fingers. I have been here for seven years. I have not refined the elixir, but I have made a lot of money.
They are all gifts from "bad men".
Looking at the house full of jewelry, jades, gold bricks and silver ingots, He Rouyu was having a headache, wondering which ones should be taken with him and which ones should be thrown away. This was a bad debt.
Only the small white soul pot on her bedside was the one she must take away.
He Rouyu was grieving for the spring and autumn, and was counting down how many men she could remember in the future. Someone knocked on the door gently, and the sound was long and short. From the sound, she knew it was Huanhuan.
Hui Huan's face was now as wrinkled as Ke Zhizi's brow. As soon as he entered the room, his jaw dropped at the various human treasures that filled the room.
"Master, where did this, this, and this come from?"
He Rouyu put on a thin shirt, sighed and said, "These bad men can't give you anything except gold and silver."
Hui Huan was still surprised. In such a small town, He Rouyu had only been here seven years, and spent most of the time refining elixirs in the mountains. How did He Rouyu collect so much money and treasures?
Seeing Hui Huan and saying nothing, He Rouyu said: "Are you thinking that these things are obviously useless to me, why do I still collect them and collect so many of them?"
Hui Huan nodded.
"Silly boy, if someone else gives you a beautiful woman and you don't accept it, you will be in more trouble."
"But, accept it, if..."
"Take it. If someone is really bold and intends to cause trouble for me, then kill him. But if you don't accept it, they will keep giving it away without end."
"Master, I understand."
"Oh, you child, why are you so innocent? I lied to you. I simply want it. I just like these useless but precious things. I have been like this since I was a child. Do you understand? This is the nature of most women. "
Hui Huan carefully thought about the meaning of this sentence, but looking at the precious things, is Master alluding to me?
So she took a fancy to me and chose me as her apprentice many years ago?
But in this way, Master still likes me.
Because I am useless but look at valuable things.
Um? Something seems wrong...
Hui Huan unknowingly wandered into the world, until He Rouyu realized that he had inadvertently exerted some kind of talent, and hurriedly snapped his fingers to call him back. Hui Huan then remembered what he meant, and accidentally brought Zhao Huanmeng back to him. He told He Rouyu what he had leaked.
When He Rouyu heard this, her beauty turned pale, and she screamed: "Two 'Resurrection Towers'? Two? No wonder the giant-eyed old man refused to reveal anything yesterday. Two 'Resurrection Towers', the whole world, I remember, But there are only four seats, right?”
Hui Huan quickly asked: "How do I know this? Master, I want to know, this 'Resurrection Tower' can really bring the dead back to life? Or... is it just a legend like the pill you made?"
"I have heard your master say this personally. The 'Resurrection Tower' is the most precious treasure of our sect. There are only four of them in the world. Each 'Resurrection Tower' can only resurrect one person. Speaking of which, your master once suffered in front of the leader's seat. He begged me bitterly and was willing to exchange half of my wealth, but he refused to reward me with one, so later, in a fit of anger, he chose to make elixirs."
"This..." Hui Huan was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"What, do you regret it? Come back?" He Rouyu's eyes narrowed: "To be honest, even I am very moved by these two towers. Unfortunately, I should not be qualified to participate in the [Floating Picture]."
"I..." Hui Huan thought for a while and finally confirmed his intention: "I don't regret it. With such a high reward, the risk must be higher. I think it will be difficult for me or our strength to win."
He Rouyu's eyes were like a mirror and asked: "Are you telling the truth?"
"You mean it, Master."
"Then go back quickly and pack your luggage."
"yes."
…
Blushing, Hui Huan returned to his room and told Lu Ran and Ke Zhizi about Zhao Huanmeng.
"The two 'Resurrection Towers' mean that they can resurrect two people?"
Uncharacteristically, Lu Ran didn't make a fuss or make any surprises. He just asked lightly: "How to resurrect?"
If a dead person could be resurrected, it would be hard not to fantasize about it.
Hui Huan was stunned, "How to resurrect? I don't know that. I don't even know what the 'Resurrection Tower' looks like."
Lu Ran asked again: "Then how can you believe that this thing must exist and those people will definitely reward them as promised?"
Hui Huan was stunned again, but Ke Zhizi took over the words at this time: "The treasure of the leader of this sect cannot be doubted, and the conduct within the sect is also extremely rigorous. As long as you comply with the rules of the process, even if the world is overturned, the result will not change. of."
Lu Ran nodded and smiled at Hui Huan: "In that case, this is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"Huh?" Hui Huan's expression was ugly, with a hint of doubt. It seemed that what Lu Ran was waiting for was not what he wanted to say.
Of course, Lu Ran also understood that Hui Huan's heart had been shaken, and he needed someone to add a little weight to the scale in his heart.
Should I go or stay?
Which side is it?
Actually, it can go both ways.
So Lu Ran smiled and asked, "Do you think this is not something I would say?"
"Yeah...I thought..."
Before Hui Huan could finish speaking, Lu Ran asked again: "Hui Huan, let me ask you, how many people have you killed?"
After asking this question, Hui Huan saw an unprecedented seriousness and seriousness on Lu Ran's face.
"Aha?" Although Hui Huan didn't understand it, he thought about it carefully and gave a rough number, a dozen.
Lu Ran asked Kezhizi again, and Kezhizi without thinking gave an exact number, six.
Lu Ran nodded and his eyes lit up: "Then guess how many people I killed?"
Huihuan looked at Kezhizi, and Kezhizi looked at Huihuan. Neither of them knew what kind of medicine Lu Ran was selling at the moment.
Hui Huan first guessed: "I guess, no? Brother Ran, with your experience and personality, have you never killed anyone?"
Ke Zhizi boldly stretched out a finger: "Then let me guess, one?"
"Bah, bah, bah, stop looking down on people. Let me tell you, I have killed more people than you have ever eaten!"
Hui Huan and Ke Zhizi laughed noncommittally a few times, and then fell silent together.
The two of them saw something in Lu Ran's widened eyes at the same time.
Such as the despair of death, or the death of despair.
Eyes can't deceive, at least, Lu Ran's eyes have never deceived anyone.
Hui Huan once again felt a sense of uncertainty in Lu Ran. He knew that Lu Ran had never cultivated to become an immortal, but he felt more than once that Lu Ran seemed to have lived for a long, long time.
Ke Zhizi's feeling was different from Hui Huan's. She suddenly saw a kind of boredom in Lu Ran's eyes, tired of death and tired of life.
This is no longer the Lu Ran they are familiar with.
"I have thought about 'life and death' countless times."
Lu Ran, whom neither of them had ever seen before, spoke slowly with a serious look on his face.
"I have thought about how to 'resurrect' the dead and 'revenge' the dead countless times, but then I figured out one thing, whether it is 'resurrection' or 'revenge', if you risk your own life, you will have to fight for it." To exchange one life for another would be such a loss, so uneconomical, and it would make the misfortune even worse."
"At that time, I told myself, I don't want to do such a tragic thing. Whether I want revenge or resurrection, it must be complete and harmless. If I bring my relatives back to life, But if I die, it will be unsuccessful. If I kill my enemy and die with him, it will also be unsuccessful."
"I've done that before, but I won't do that again."
"What I want is complete, complete revenge and complete victory."
"So Hui Huan, I agree with your 'escape', because if any one of us dies in this Lao Shizi'futu', even if there are some of us who have the last laugh and get what we want, it won't matter. If it’s a success, it’s also a failure.”
Lu Ran's words made Hui Huan and Ke Zhizi open their mouths wide. Not only were they unable to spit out even a single word, they even forgot to exhale.
They didn't seem to know the man in front of them at all, but they listened to him tell the story of his life in a shocking way.
After Lu Ran finished speaking, he returned to his usual playful smile, waiting to see how the two of them would react.
After returning to Huan, Ke Zhizi stood there for a long time, occasionally looking at each other and speechless.
After a long time, the long silence was broken by the sound of pushing the door. A girl in green with a cute haircut threw something that looked like a waistband onto the table in front of the three of them.
"You are right, Lu Ran!"
"Also, brother Huihuan, look at this thing, do you recognize it?"
