Chapter 6: Xiao Family Matters(1/2)
The jade slips introduce other things in great detail.
A Taiweizong standard sword, a few low-level talismans and a bottle of Qi-enhancing pills.
The elixir Xiao Ling took some time ago was also a Qi-enhancing elixir, which had a very good effect on newcomers.
When Qi collection first appears, spiritual energy is generated by itself.
Although he was only in the early stages of gas extraction, at least Xiao Ling saw hope.
He hadn't had time to look at the other jade slips yet, and even though he was feeling itchy, he still put everything in his storage bag.
I carefully tied the storage bag around my waist and pulled it hard to see if it was secure.
Because the unique footsteps of a woman walking could be heard outside the house, but the sound was relatively low, so it must have been deliberately concealed.
The woman quietly walked to the door and stopped. Instead of speaking, she leaned her head against the door.
I think it must be Liu Mei. Xiao Ling can imagine her quietly lying in front of the door.
Liu Mei leaned in front of the door and listened for a while, but heard nothing.
In desperation, he had no choice but to take a step back, pretending to have just arrived and knocked on the door:
"Sir, it's time to eat."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Ling's answer, he pushed open the door and walked in. He happened to meet Xiao Ling's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Liu Mei coughed rather uncomfortably, and then pretended that nothing happened and said:
"Sir, it's time to eat."
Xiao Ling sighed: "Why is this so?"
"Sir, what did you say?"
Liu Mei asked doubtfully, she always felt that Xiao Ling seemed to be a different person since more than ten days ago.
Apart from having the same faces, their tone of voice and attitude are completely different.
It seems like it started when he got that wooden box!
But why did Xiao Ling have to wait until he was about to die before taking that magic medicine?
Are there any restrictions?
Just when Liu Mei was in doubt, Xiao Ling's calm voice sounded like it was coming from the sky, awakening Liu Mei who was deep in thought.
"Let's go, it's time to leave after this meal."
The two of them walked towards the dining room one after another. Liu Mei followed Xiao Ling with her head lowered and her expression unclear.
The dining room of the Xiao family is on the right side of the side room. To be honest, Xiao Ling has never had a meal since he came to this world. Basically, Mrs. Lin sent it to the side room.
There was a sumptuous meal on the table. Xiao Ling looked intently and even Wang Shuo was there.
He knew very well why Wang Shuo was here, but he couldn't understand it.
Xiao Ling was obliged to take the main seat, perhaps because he was too old, but Xiao Ling had no appetite at all when looking at the dazzling array of food.
These things are not half as good as the things in the storage bag on his waist. It feels like sitting here is a waste of time.
With this thought, he couldn't stay any longer.
Liu Mei was serving soup for him, looking very gentle and virtuous.
Shaking his head, Xiao Ling said calmly:
"Liu Mei, you don't have to do this."
I have left the Xiao family to you, I have done what I should do, and we have nothing to do with each other from now on.
I won't eat anymore. Let's get together and relax. Maybe we will meet again in the future.
Liu Mei's expression changed, and she forced a smile and said:
"What nonsense are you talking about, sir? The Xiao family is still yours now, where are you going?"
"Come on, come on, this is stewed by an old hen that Mrs. Lin caught. She also specially added precious medicinal materials. It is very nourishing."
Then he handed the small bowl of soup to Xiao Ling.
The hand she handed out was hanging in the air, but Xiao Ling just looked at her and didn't reach out to take it.
Putting away the false expression on her face, Liu Mei put down the small bowl and slowly sat on the stool.
At this time, she showed a look of disgust and frowned slightly:
"Old man, you are really unreasonable!"
"I invited you to dinner with good intentions, but you still don't appreciate it. Do you have to do it to make you happy?"
"You bitch!"
Liu Mei at this moment was completely different from before, her face was full of sternness, she wanted to eat Xiao Ling alive.
"Old Immortal, hand over the contents of the wooden box!"
"Otherwise, you don't want to leave the Xiao family today."
"Anyway, the Xiao family is mine. Many people saw you this morning with a haggard face and you were close to death."
"So I brought you back, and no one would suspect anything if you died suddenly at home."
"How about it? You should have an idea of what to choose."
Xiao Ling shook his head and secretly sighed: "It's so powerful that it makes you stupid."
Human beings are very strange creatures. They want and want what they have, and everyone is the same.
It's just that some people have strong self-control and can control their greed.
Xiao Ling no longer bothered to talk to her and slowly stood up from the stool: "You really can't let me go?"
Liu Mei did not reply, but looked at Wang Shuo.
Wang Shuo, who had been silent and silent, slowly stood up and drew out the long sword hanging from his waist.
He looked at Xiao Ling with calm eyes, as if he would make him splash with blood if he had any disagreement.
Xiao Ling sighed softly and picked up the chopsticks on the table with his dry palms to play with them carefully.
Seeing that Xiao Ling was indifferent and seemed not to be frightened by Wang Shuo, Liu Mei winked at Wang Shuo opposite him.
Wang Shuo picked up his sword and walked towards Xiao Ling.
In Xiao Ling's memory, Wang Shuo was basically a man of few words, and he would do whatever Liu Mei said.
There was a sigh in the dining room, followed by a sound that slightly penetrated the object.
Wang Shuo's advancing body stopped in response.
"There is no grudge between you and me!"
Xiao Ling looked at Liu Mei and said softly, "That's why I gave you a chance."
"It's a pity that you are not sure!"
Liu Mei didn't know what nonsense Xiao Ling was talking about. From the corner of her eye, she saw Wang Shuo stop, and she suddenly felt angry and looked at Wang Shuo.
Only a trace of blood was left on Wang Shuo's forehead facing him, and a hole the size of a bamboo chopstick was clearly visible.
The cherry-like little mouth opened wider and wider, and finally seemed about to let out the most terrifying scream.
But no sound came out of Liu Mei's mouth, because she was frightened and lost her voice.
Xiao Ling didn't care about Liu Mei's current situation and took out a talisman from his storage bag.
Low-level flame talisman, the most common low-level talisman in the world of cultivation.
The talisman paper was as automatic as a goose feather, flying lightly towards Wang Shuo.
"boom!"
A ball of flames burned violently from top to bottom in an instant. In just a few breaths, Wang Shuo, an adult man, turned into a ball of ashes.
There was a lot of smoke and dust floating in the dining room, as well as the unpleasant smell of burnt bodies.
"vomit!"
Liu Mei's face looked pale under the firelight, and he kept retching.
There was a pattering sound from the ground, and she was so frightened that she became incontinent.
Liu Mei sat down on the ground, with tears and runny nose running down her face, and she murmured to herself:
"You are not Xiao Ling, you are a devil!"
"You are the devil, you are the devil!"
Liu Mei seemed to be frightened to the point of confusion, her eyes were unfocused and her face looked stupid.
Xiao Ling shook his head. Whether Liu Mei was really stupid or not had no effect on him.
Because the dead don’t need to worry!
