Tsk tsk tsk! ! !
A stinging pain suddenly rose from his wrist. In Su Li's horrified eyes, bursts of white smoke suddenly appeared from the black circle drawn by the old beggar. The black gradually faded away, and the white smoke condensed into strange patterns, as if alive. It trembled like an object, and finally penetrated into Su Li's skin along the pores.
Su Li only felt that there seemed to be something extra on her wrist, but this feeling only lasted for a moment and then disappeared. No matter how hard she probed, she could not find it.
After such an incident, the black ink marks on his wrist disappeared out of thin air, as if they had never appeared before.
"what did you do to me?"
Su Li's expression was cold and stern, and her dark eyes looked at the pedestrians on the street, but she saw them passing by without even looking here, as if the world where she and the old beggar were were completely separated.
With a flick of her wrist, the dagger immediately fell into her hand, and the tip of the sword immediately glowed with a moon-white sword light.
When the old beggar saw this, he showed an aggrieved look, "Young master is so unreasonable! I spent all my cultivation to help you draw a talisman, but you are so unlucky, not only are you not grateful, but you also want to fight with swords? It really chills me. Heart!"
call!
There was a sound of breaking through the air. Before the old beggar could finish his words, Su Li's dagger was pressed against his neck. His voice gradually became cold, "I have never seen such a weird spell. Since you have tricked me into receiving this spell, Why don't you tell me the truth and tell me what the spell does."
The old beggar opened his cloudy eyes, glanced down at the gleaming dagger, and sighed sadly:
"Surely people's hearts are not ancient! How can the old man and the young master know each other, so how can he harm others? Although the charm drawn for the young master cannot completely prevent the young master from bad luck, it can still bring a little bit of life to the young master. Young Master, you are so The sword pointed at the old man's neck, tut tut... "
Su Li's expression softened slightly and she put down her dagger, not because what he said made sense, but because now she had been under a spell, even if she killed the old beggar, it would not help. If the spell was really harmful to her, the old beggar should have shown it off long ago. She had never mastered the ability to isolate heaven and earth. This person's cultivation... was much higher than hers, but he didn't show it for some reason.
"I hope what the old man said is true, otherwise I will never let go of anyone who has ill intentions towards me in my entire life."
Su Li said solemnly, and the old beggar waved his hand nonchalantly, "Come on, hurry up, old man, I finally helped people tell their fortunes once, but they were all white-eyed wolves. Sure enough, the world is fake, and people can't count..."
Su Li frowned when she heard this. The old beggar said some words that she didn't understand. She didn't bother to ask any more questions and turned around to leave. Just three steps away, she suddenly noticed something behind her and looked back suddenly, her pupils shrinking instantly.
There was no trace of the old beggar anywhere on the ground, and even the stall was gone! She didn't realize when he left.
"Or... he's still there, but I can't see him?"
This thought flashed through her mind, and Su Li's eyes were full of fear, and she subconsciously moved away. She didn't want to have anything to do with this person anymore, so just treat today's incident as a moment of confusion and forget about it.
Squinting her eyes slightly, Su Li touched the smooth, mirror-like skin of her right hand, but she couldn't get rid of the little concern in her heart.
"Today is a good day hey!"
Seeing Su Li leave, the old beggar packed up his clothes and left, holding the banknote tightly in his hand. A hint of sarcasm suddenly flashed across his turbid eyes, "Fake things are not smooth no matter how you use them."
…
But at this moment, Linliju is in the Yunjing City branch.
Qu Qingning sat obediently in the makeshift shed, looking at Fang Yuan and Yin Xuetong next to the table with an innocent look on his face, as if he was constipated and very embarrassed.
"What's going on? If you don't speak, I will ignore you!"
Yin Xuetong said slightly angrily, with a strong murderous intention in her eyes. Could this fool have found another woman in Yunjing City
"Qing Ning, if you don't tell us, we won't be able to help you."
Fang Yuan frowned and said strangely: "Aren't you afraid that Su Li will blame you if you suddenly stop building the underground secret room?"
With the Heart-Eating Gu's digging convenience in hand, Qu Qingning was naturally responsible for the construction of the underground secret room of the Lili Residence in Yunjing City.
When Qu Qingning heard what Fang Yuan said, his face turned paler. He rubbed his hands and showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "Didn't Su Li tell us to be careful and not let the next door notice it? Well... I seemed to...accidentally...dug it through."
Hearing this, Yin Xuetong was stunned for a moment, and then their eyes widened, "What did you say?"
Fang Yuan had already fled towards the underground passage...
In the middle of the night, Su Li received urgent news and rushed to the end of the underground passage. He looked at a wall made of dark iron that suddenly appeared in the ground. This iron wall was supposed to be as smooth as a mirror and be able to illuminate people, but now it was full of pits and pits. It was like being chewed by a dog. One of the bites was particularly deep, as deep as a finger. It was almost penetrated by a thin film. Through the thin film, Fang Yuan and others could almost feel the light coming from the other side of the iron wall.
Su Li raised her eyebrows and glanced at Qu Qingning, who was standing aside silently like a little daughter-in-law. She didn't say anything and waved everyone back to the temporary shed.
"In other words, you were sleeping at the time and the Heart-Eating Gu was operating on its own. This iron wall suddenly appeared and it was eaten directly as mud and stone. You didn't realize it until it sent a message of indigestion and woke you up?"
Su Li gave a brief summary, Qu Qingning smiled, hid behind Yin Xuetong without leaving a trace, and then nodded lightly.
Su Li didn't say anything, but Yin Xuetong was the first to laugh angrily, "Wow! You Qu Qingning, you actually slept in with us behind your back. Do you know that if this wall is dug through, we will probably have to face two innate The anger of a master?”
Qu Qingning shook his body, his face full of guilt, and he was about to cry, "I...I didn't mean it."
"If you did it on purpose, you would be dead long ago."
Su Li said lightly, which scared Qu Qingning into silence for a moment, lowered his head and said dejectedly: "I am willing to accept any punishment."
"Since Su Li said that the winery next door has an extraordinary origin, we should have thought that they would also build a secret room underground."
Yin Xuetong said with some annoyance, regretting that she could not react and remind Qu Qingning, "Being able to use black iron to make a wall is really a wealthy person. If you put it outside, weapons made of black iron are hard currency and are extremely valuable."
Su Li shook his head and explained: "The black iron also has a function. As long as it reaches a certain thickness, it can isolate the innate warrior's spiritual sense from detecting. Now that wall has been tormented by Qu Qingning, it is no longer useful."
Fang Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, "Doesn't that mean you can see what's in that secret room?"
Su Li glanced at Fang Yuan and said, "Those two are much better than me in cultivation. If they really detect their spiritual senses, they will come to us for tea in the next moment."
Fang Yuan was frightened after hearing this, and a cold sweat instantly appeared on his forehead. He was about to break through to Xiantian. He originally wanted to wait until he broke through to explore, but fortunately Su Li had warned him.
Sensing that Fang Yuan's energy was unstable, Su Li's eyes flashed with surprise, "There is too much movement to break through the innateness. When the time comes, remember to leave the city and find a desolate place, and let Qing Ning and Xuetong help you protect the law."
After being told by Su Li, Fang Yuan's face turned slightly red, and he felt a little disappointed in his heart. He originally wanted to give her a surprise.
There was a smile in Su Li's eyes, and she handed over "Proud Sword Jue". She didn't really have much hope at first, but she didn't expect that Fang Yuan was very talented and was about to achieve a breakthrough before he turned eighteen. It was such an unexpected surprise.
After laughing, Su Li looked at Qu Qingning and said calmly: "I will fill that iron wall with things. You don't need to worry about it, Qu Qingning, I will punish you by depriving you of sleep for three days and three nights, and complete the structure of the underground secret room. If If anything goes wrong, I still have a 'good job' to do, but I'm worried no one will do it."
Qu Qingning trembled when he heard this, and immediately promised that even if he stayed up for seven days and seven nights, he would not make any mistakes again.
Fang Yuan's heart sank slightly as he listened. What kind of "good job" is this? Qu Qingning didn't do it, and it seemed that Su Li wasn't going to let them interfere. Could it be that she was going to do it herself
After hearing the promise, Su Li's face returned to a peaceful smile, and he asked to speed up the construction of Linli Residence before blending into the night and leaving.
There were so-called "good jobs" originally, but now that Qu Lu was here, of course she had to make the best use of them. Those troublesome jobs were more suitable to be done by people in her own profession.
Red Rouge Tower.
After receiving Su Li's first order, Qu Lu was immediately filled with wonder, "Why would you let me follow her? If there is some reason to follow Su Li, but who is this Su Zipei...?"
In the next few days, an extremely strange scene occurred in a remote winery alley in Yunjing City.
There are only three or five small restaurants and inns in the whole street, but there are two shops next to each other. One shop is dilapidated and the business is bleak, but the other one is still building a two-story building in full swing. The materials are all high-quality. It just depends on luck. The wood that came was no less than one hundred thousand taels of silver.
"Master, is this owner's head caught in the door? Why are we still building a store here when our business is so bad?"
A woman in rural attire walked out of the kitchen holding a kitchen knife. She couldn't help shouting as she looked at the tall building that was several times higher than their restaurant.
Not long after, a middle-aged scribe walked out of the front room. He was wearing a gray cloth robe and had an unkempt beard. He looked like a down-and-out scholar who had lost his reputation. His slim figure was in sharp contrast to the woman's strong back and waist.
The shabby scribe took one look at the tall building and cursed with jealousy: "You money-burning son of a bitch, if you have money to give me orders, you might as well give me flowers!"
When the stout woman heard this, she immediately walked over and grabbed the shabby scribe's ear, and shouted:
"Who are you scolding? Who are you scolding? Do you dislike me for giving me less pocket money again? Or do you miss the beauty of Qinghonglou? Wow, you are a murderer, you have learned how to criticize mulberry trees and Huaihuai after studying for several years?!"
"It hurts, it hurts, madam, I really didn't think about it! Let me go, let me go, ah... my ears are going to fall off!"
Several families watching the excitement on the opposite side of the street burst out laughing. Everyone knew that the owner of "Zhouyue Winery" was extremely afraid of his wife, and would be taught a lesson by the tiger woman almost every day. At this time, they would move out of the bench. Come, sit at the door and watch the excitement, adding a bit of fun to the pale and boring days.
