When Li Jie got excited, he pulled Xiao Qiao over and came over. He already knew Yuan Xi's temperament, so he took the initiative to say hello to Yuan Xi: "Yuan Xi, you have also entered Zone D! I didn't expect it, but it's really great!"
Xiao Qiao also smiled, showing two small canine teeth, "Yeah, living outside is not a long-term solution, the impact on the body will only become more and more obvious, it is better to come in early. However, you are probably the fastest to enter Zone D I am one of the people, it happened to be in time, and I was able to get enough power stones so quickly, it is really amazing."
Yuan Xi nodded and said, "You said the people inside are stronger, I want to come in and take a look."
Li Jie chuckled, "I knew that my brother is also an ambitious person. It seems that we are very destined. Then we can find a way to become stronger together. I will go to find out tomorrow and tell you when the time comes."
"Yeah." Yuan Xi agreed, it's really convenient to have someone who can provide information, he has a lot of things to check.
The three of them wandered around and looked around. If the out-of-bounds area was a temporary refuge, then this place could already be called a normal city.
The bustling market around, the pedestrians coming and going, and the green plants planted beside the street - this is very rare to see. There are also various snack bars around, with the aroma of food floating.
"I feel like I haven't lived a normal life for hundreds of years." Xiao Qiao sighed, looking at the aborigines with an envious look on her face.
Li Jie touched Xiao Qiao's head, and said gently: "We will have this kind of life, and we will have it soon. Besides, you don't have to envy them. There are actually very few aborigines in District D. Most of these people are Those who came in before, or the descendants of those people. The real natives mostly live in the B or A areas."
Xiao Qiao glanced at Li Jie and didn't speak. Li Jie used to be cynical, but now he is under a lot of pressure and he has calmed down a lot. Thinking of this, Xiao Qiao secretly made up her mind that she must find a way to become stronger, and she couldn't let Li Jie support her forever.
The three wandered around, seduced by the aroma of the food around them and became more and more hungry, even Luo Xiaolou, who was in Yuan Xi's arms, poked his head out, stepped on Yuan Xi's arm with his claws and looked out.
Xiao Qiao pursed her lips in joy, "Brother Yuan, your pet is really bright in color, and I want to touch it just by looking at it. The skin alone is worth a few energy stones." He didn't dare to do anything about the evaluation of the animals in his arms in the past.
"He doesn't sell it." Yuan Xi said suddenly.
Luo Xiaolou resisted the urge to roll his eyes at Xiao Qiao, and rubbed his face against the back of Yuan Xi's hand flatteringly, causing Yuan Xi to look down.
Yuan Xi touched a few more hands, and said as a matter of course: "I can keep the leather for myself." At the same time, he felt the movement on the back of his hand froze.
Xiao Qiao rubbed her belly and said, "Brother Jie, Brother Yuan, we've also moved around half of the city. Do you want to find a place to eat? Besides, we also need to find a place to live."
The three of them found a restaurant for lunch together. The price was much more expensive than outside, but the richness of the food was incomparable outside.
Ask the clerk again, it is more expensive to stay in a hotel, and if you convert the cash into energy stones, the most common hotel costs half a first-level energy stone per day, and one person costs fifteen yuan a month.
Coupled with the need to eat, buy daily necessities, and a first-level energy stone that must be handed in every day when staying in Zone D, their expenses and gains are somewhat out of proportion.
Li Jie thought for a while and said, "I don't live in a hotel, so I'll inquire about renting a house."
Then, Yuan Xi and Xiao Qiao were waiting for news in the restaurant, and Li Jie went out alone. Not long after, Li Jie came back from outside with a smile on his face.
"Jack, how are you doing?"
"It's probably done. Listen to me first. I found a place. Because the family is going to move to District C, the house in District D is going to be rented out. Because the place is relatively remote, the rent is cheaper than others. His house There are two yards, and each yard can accommodate two people. The owner said that if you rent it alone, one yard will cost thirteen first-level energy stones per month, but if you rent both yards, the two yards will cost you twenty first-level energy stones. stone."
As he said that, Li Jie looked at Yuan Xi, what he meant was that if Yuan Xi also planned to rent a house, he would rent it together, if not, he would rent a yard with Xiao Qiao.
Luo Xiaolou immediately pricked up his ears, they have no money at all, and now they can't afford the rent. He couldn't help scratching Yuan Xi twice, reminding him not to forget about it.
Yuan Xi held Luo Xiaolou's paw and said, "Okay, but you have to ask the landlord first if I can start paying from tomorrow, and pay every day for the first month." A more comfortable environment for the wife.
Li Jie laughed, "I've already thought about this. We didn't have much money when we first came in. I told the owner that if we rent it out, we will pay half a month's rent first. This is what Xiao Qiao and I can afford now. By the middle of the month, we will almost be able to give him the rent for the second half of the month. If you don’t have enough by then, let’s see if we can make up some.”
Li Jie didn't think Yuan Xi couldn't pay the rent, even if Yuan Xi couldn't get so many energy stones, selling squirrels for money was still an income.
Yuan Xi nodded in agreement, and the three of them immediately went to the agreed house. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the population gradually became scarce, and the houses were not as good as those in the center of the city. But there are a lot of green plants, the environment is beautiful and quiet.
Several people were very satisfied, and immediately asked the landlord to pay half a month's money. To the surprise of several people, each yard has its own bathroom, and of course the water bill is still staggering.
With their own residences, they all had a good night's rest that day. The next day, Yuan Xi still took Luo Xiaolou to the first-level energy stone area. For the sake of future life, there are only a lot more people here. Yuan Xi got two first-level energy stones in one day, and beat the other guardian beast half to death. Seeing that there was not enough time, Yuan Xi gave up the third energy stone and went back to the city with Luo Xiaolou.
Luo Xiaolou sorted out two more pieces of green hair. He vaguely felt that his mental strength had increased significantly in the past two days, and he began to pray for an early transformation.
In the next ten days, Yuan Xi went to the first-level energy stone area every day, and he had changed from harvesting two pieces of energy stones a day to three pieces a day now. In addition to the ten energy stones handed in, one month's rent was paid out, and there were even five more energy stones.
Luo Xiaolou was getting more and more frustrated day by day. He clearly felt that his mental power was already very sufficient. Although it was far from the source of consciousness, transformation should not be a problem. After trying several times, he failed to transform.
Luo Xiaolou really started to get scared, if he was like this for the rest of his life, Yuan Xi would really not want him! Even if you want to, keep it as a pet every day, and then marry a daughter-in-law in the past, and face the loving and sweet two people every day, life will be even more terrifying.
On the contrary, Yuan Xi, who was busy raising his family every day, did not show the slightest dislike.
Like Luo Xiaolou, 125's progress is also very slow. All it collects now are the genes of animals or plants that were killed in the past, and the data obtained are far from enough to make medicine.
In his spare time, 125 got some snake vines into the squirrel's cave and planted a small piece. Anyway, no one goes to the squirrel hole. There are only squirrels there, and there are no energy stones.
On this day, 125 saw the shiny energy stones put away by Yuan Xi, and immediately drooled a little, so he asked Luo Xiaolou to ask Yuan Xi for two pieces in the name of research—anyway, this is also true, their spaceship needs energy stones Provides energy.
After Luo Xiaolou was ravaged by taking a bath that night, he pretended to be gentle and ingratiating, and raised his head to ask Yuan Xi for energy stones.
Yuan Xi looked down at Luo Xiaolou who was shivering from the cold, grabbed him to his chest, lifted Luo Xiaolou's chin with one finger, looked at it for a while, and commented: "It's so ugly after taking a shower..."
Luo Xiaolou: "..."
That being said, Yuan Xi took the extra five energy stones from the space button and threw them to Luo Xiaolou, "You put them away."
125 quietly took one piece, while Luo Xiaolou put away the other four pieces. He recalled the scene when the bank card was thrown to him in the past, and the uneasiness in his heart suddenly subsided a lot. Could it be that having mastered a man's salary card, having money in his hands, and not panicking
That night, Luo Xiaolou held the energy stone in the house to observe by himself. Yuan used to go to Li Jie's side, but when he saw that Luo Xiaolou didn't want to move, he went by himself.
Holding the energy stone in his hand, Luo Xiaolou felt that it was no different from the materials he had seen before. 125 ran back to the space button by himself. Bored, he tried to unblock the energy stone with mental power.
As a result, the mental power unexpectedly entered into the energy stone very easily.
Surprised, Luo Xiaolou began to sort out with all his attention, only to find that his mental power did not show signs of being consumed, but turned around in the energy stone and returned to Luo Xiaolou's body.
What surprised Luo Xiaolou even more was that the returned mental power seemed to be more pure and powerful.
Luo Xiaolou suddenly became joyful, his hands trembling with excitement. If he guessed correctly, this kind of power stone can improve his spiritual power, which opened a new door completely, and Luo Xiaolou began to be full of hope for his return to human form.
Because there was no consumption issue involved, Luo Xiaolou began to input mental power into the energy stone over and over again, and then returned it to the body. Luo Xiaolou then simply closed his eyes to ensure more concentrated attention, so he didn't notice that as his mental power circulated over and over again, the energy stone in his hand became more and more dim.
When Yuan Xi came back, he was surprised to find that Luo Xiaolou had fallen asleep, and he was throwing a familiar gray stone by his hand. Isn't this a power stone? This prodigal daughter-in-law!
Yuan Xi touched it and found that Luo Xiaolou's breathing and body temperature were normal, so he didn't think much, dragged Luo Xiaolou to the pillow, and fell asleep after a while.
The next day, Yuan Xi did not go outside as usual. Instead, he went out with Li Jie and Xiao Qiao who was still disguised as a man.
Luo Xiaolou was very surprised, listening to the conversation of the three, they actually wanted to go to a family of ancient martial arts.
In the gray cave, firearms and mechs are useless, and Guwu highlights its importance. These days, Li Jie found out that the most famous ancient martial arts gym in District D was recruiting disciples, so he notified Yuan Xi, and the three of them went to try their luck.
Yuan used to know a little bit about Gu Wu. His previous training was specially formulated by his teacher according to his personal situation. Although he doesn't know much about ancient martial arts, his genes are against the sky, and he can still draw with ancient martial arts masters with his usual concise killing moves.
Now that the physique is weak, it is a good way to improve with the help of ancient martial arts.
When the three of them arrived at the ancient martial arts hall, there was already a long queue outside. Listening to the people around talking, this Yi Family Ancient Martial Art Museum is very strict in selecting disciples.
There are three levels in the selection test. The first level is to compete with the low-level disciples in the gym, and then the masters in the gym will score according to personal performance or qualifications. Those who score higher than 60 points can pass the first level.
The second level is perseverance, and those with a score higher than 70 can pass. The third level is a direct interview with the master, and only those with a score of 85 can be considered qualified.
The three of them lined up for about an hour before it was their turn. A young man at the door sized up Li Jie and said, "You go in first."
Yuan Xi and Xiao Qiao stood behind, and Luo Xiaolou watched the battle inside with great interest. He found that Li Jie was not weak. Although the martial arts school sent the lowest-level disciples, they were much better than those who had no foundation. up. Li Jie and his opponent ended in a tie, and seemed to have a slight upper hand.
Several master judges nodded and gave not low scores.
Li Jie walked down with a smile, instead of going inside directly, he waited for Xiao Qiao and Yuan Xi beside him.
Xiao Qiao was much weaker than Li Jie, but he also took more than twenty moves, with a light body and neat movements, and got a mid-to-low score.
Finally it was Yuan Xi's turn, he hesitated for two seconds, handed Luo Xiaolou to Li Jie, and asked him to help take care of it, and not to touch it randomly, before walking towards the middle of the field.
As soon as Yuan Xi went up, the surroundings were quiet for a few seconds. Such a handsome and outstanding person is really rare in the entire D area.
The disciple on the opposite side smiled shyly, saluted Yuan Xi, and the two began to fight. Yuan had experienced many such competitions in the past, and he knew it in his heart. Coupled with his training these days, although he looked inferior to Li Jie, but not long after, he used a surprise move to pin that disciple to the ground.
Several masters smiled and gave higher scores.
Behind the competition room was a slightly smaller room, in which sat three old men, one of whom said happily: "This time we have finally recruited good disciples, the young man just now is extremely talented. "
The other two smiled and nodded. Accompanied by the three of them was a young girl whose eyes lit up when she looked at Yuan Xi outside. She greeted the three old people, turned around and walked out.
In the past, when the three of them were walking in with the crowd, a young girl suddenly came in front of her. She was dressed in a neat white dress and had a sweet appearance, which attracted many examinees who were walking in to peep.
The girl raised her chin with a smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was used to such situations.
When the girl passed by Yuan Xi's side, she couldn't help but slow down, and her watery eyes glanced at Yuan Xi who had ignored her. He snorted, then saw Luo Xiaolou in his arms, stopped and said: "Hey, you, yes, I mean you, the fox in your arms is good, sell it to me, I just need a fur collar. "
Yuan Xi glanced at her coldly, and said expressionlessly: "Not for sale." Seeing Luo Xiaolou sneezed by the fragrance of the girl's body, he frowned and said, "Stay away from me." He said no When the girl spoke, she walked over directly, causing a large group of flower protectors and the little beauty to turn blue.
The second level was a test of perseverance. Li Jie and Yuan Xi were called in to test together.
Xiao Qiao looked at Luo Xiaolou outside, she was a little uneasy, and looked at the tightly closed door from time to time.
At this moment, several people suddenly surrounded her.
Xiao Qiao was startled, and found that the girl who took the lead was actually the girl just now, so she couldn't help taking a step back.
"Boy, give it to me, or you won't pass the test." The girl said bitterly, staring at Luo Xiaolou with trickery in her eyes.
Although Xiao Qiao persuaded Yuan Xi not to keep pets several times, she was still very responsible for the things entrusted to her by others. Moreover, she also had some dislike for this arrogant and unreasonable woman. She wanted to get close to Big Brother Yuan, but she wanted to act like a little girl. Not everyone liked this.
A young boy behind the girl said: "Boy, if you really want to enter the Yi family, you'd better get acquainted. This is the second young lady of the Yi family."
Xiao Qiao's face turned even worse, knowing that this person was definitely offended, she held Luo Xiaolou in her arms and stared at the person in front of her guardedly, "That's impossible, the owner said he wouldn't sell it, and I would never give it to you."
The girl's face turned red with anger, and she waved her hand, telling everyone to go up together and grab it directly.
Xiao Qiao was easily restrained. When a young man came to arrest Luo Xiaolou, Luo Xiaolou glanced depressedly at the tightly closed gate of the examination room. There were the most people in front of the gate, and it was impossible for him to pass. Luo Xiaolou yelled, opened his mouth and bit hard on the hand that was about to grab him, and then ran towards the gap where there were few people amidst the man's screams.
The girl became even more angry, and called the brothers to arrest Luo Xiaolou. Several people and an animal ran out of the Yi Family Ancient Martial Arts Hall in a short time.
People on the street immediately dodged when they saw that it was the people from the Yijia Ancient Martial Art Museum, and those people chased after Luo Xiaolou closely, and some even wanted to help catch him from time to time. Luo Xiaolou was a little anxious, he didn't expect to encounter such danger.
After turning the corner, Luo Xiaolou was about to find a direction when a hand grabbed his hind leg and dragged him quickly.
Luo Xiaolou struggled desperately, the man said: "Hey, don't move, I'm saving you."
Luo Xiaolou was covered by someone with clothes covering his head, and then blocked behind him. According to the position of this person and the smell on his body, he seemed to be a beggar...
Are there beggars in this place
The girl came after her with someone and found that Luo Xiaolou was nowhere to be seen. She stomped her feet angrily and muttered, "Where did this cunning guy go? Wait until I catch him, hmph!"
At this moment, footsteps sounded behind them, the girl seemed to have sensed it, she turned her head suddenly, and found that Yuan Xi, Li Jie and Xiao Qiao were chasing after them together, and the face of Yuan Xi who was walking in the front was too dark to be seen.
Yuan Xi stared at the girl viciously, and said slowly: "If something happens to him, I will never forgive you."
The young men behind the girl gasped and were about to come up. But the girl clearly saw the coldness in Yuan Xi's eyes, which made her breathless. She bit her lip and stopped those people. Her intention was not to annoy Yuan Xi, but to attract his attention.
The girl adjusted her face, and said with guilt: "I, I really didn't mean it, I just wanted to scare it, who knew it was so wild, my man was bitten, and it ran away without a trace—"
Before the girl finished speaking, a head popped out from under the clothes of the old man on the street corner, and rushed up immediately when he saw Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi leaned down to catch Luo Xiaolou, who was rushing towards him, and touched the panting animal in his arms. Yuan Xi looked at the girl coldly, "You are the ancient martial arts school of the Yi family. people?"
The corner of the girl's mouth curled up, and she immediately said: "I am, I am the second girl of the Yi family, my name is Eva—"
Yuan Xi nodded and interrupted her, "I see." Then he ignored Eva, turned to look at Li Jie and Xiao Qiao, and said, "Go on to the exam, I won't go to Yi's house. "
This sentence surprised everyone, Li Jie said in disbelief: "But now you are ranked first..."
Yuan Xi said without hesitation: "That doesn't matter, I don't have any interest in the Yi family now."
Eva opened her mouth wide, she reached out and wanted to grab Yuan Xi's sleeve.
Before it was touched, Yuan Xi turned around suddenly, pointed a black sword at Eva's throat, narrowed his eyes and said, "If you stop me again, I will think you are challenging me, and you will be responsible for life and death."
Eva was completely stunned, no man had ever treated her like this before!
Yuan Xi walked towards the beggar in the corner, knelt down and asked, "You saved him?"
The old beggar laughed, "I originally wanted to save it as a companion, but since it has an owner, forget it."
"Thank you, I will repay you for saving his life." Yuan Xi said seriously.
The beggar was also taken aback. He probably didn't expect people to value pets so much. He smiled again, "If you really want to repay, just give me a meal. Anyway, I will be sent out after today."
Yuan Xi frowned, and he quickly realized that the old beggar meant that he would be kicked out of Area D. Such an old man would definitely not be able to hand over the energy stone.
Hugging Luo Xiaolou with one hand, Yuan Xi firmly supported the old man with the other, and said with no refusal: "You come with me."
Then, Yuan Xi supported the old man, and left amidst the stunned expressions of a group of people.
Eva didn't know what to do. She overheard that her grandfather and the others had taken a fancy to this young man. This young man was so handsome and charming, so she wanted to make love with her first. The disciples of the Yi family were very willing to make trouble with her like this. . However, I didn't expect this person to be so rigid and indifferent.
She bit the corner of her mouth and looked angrily at the direction where Yuan Xi was leaving. When she couldn't see anyone, she turned to Xiao Qiao and Li Jie, and shouted angrily, "Since he won't come, then you should go too, Yi Jia doesn't want to come." welcome!"
Li Jie and Xiao Qiao's expressions immediately turned ugly, and just as Xiao Qiao was about to speak, a clear voice rang out: "Eva, who taught you that you can blame others for no reason?"
Eva trembled, and looked back, a young man in neat dark clothes had already walked in front of her. Eva said obediently: "Second...Second brother, you are here."
The young man snorted, ignored Eva, glanced at Li Jie and Xiao Qiao, and said, "You two, I am Yinuo from the Yi family. My sister is too spoiled. Please don't be as familiar with her. Yi Everyone is welcome at home, please be sure to take the exam."
Ino spoke neither humble nor overbearing, and naturally brought out the nobility of everyone's young master, which was completely different from Eva.
Li Jie and Xiao Qiao went down the steps. Although they also didn't like Eva, Gu Wu was indeed very important, if they could stay in Gu Wuguan.
Then they will get back more energy stones every day in the future, and they can even get high-level energy stones.
In the evening, Li Jie took Xiao Qiao back excitedly. Not only was he left behind, but Xiao Qiao also took the last place. He said that he was very spiritual and was left behind by Yijia Ancient Martial Arts.
When the two returned home, Li Jie walked to Yuan Xi's yard first and knocked on the door. They were very worried about Yuan Xi, and he looked very angry when he left.
After a while, the door opened, and Yuan Xi stood at the door reluctantly, with no emotion in the morning on his face, as if he had something urgent to do.
"Well, Brother Yuan, we want to invite you to have dinner together." Xiao Qiao looked in while talking, and she found that the door of the second room in Yuan Xi's yard was opened. The old man brought it back. He also cared too much about his pets, it was not easy to raise one more person like this.
Yuan Xi, who had never rejected them, didn't seem very interested this time. At this moment, a low voice came from Yuan Xi's room, "Oh my God, Yuan Xi, I can't get it off, please help me get this hell out of me!" Get off your collar!"
Li Jie and Xiao Qiao opened their mouths wide in surprise, that definitely could not be the voice of an old man.
Looking at Yuan Xi's expression again, Li Jie looked at Yuan Xi with a clear face, and said meaningfully: "Brother, since you are busy, we will not bother you, we will meet tomorrow. Also, don't play too hard gone."
