A hint of surprise appeared on his face, Xun Wu smiled and shook his head.
After thinking for a while, he hooked his hand toward the ground, and with his movement, the night knife on the ground automatically flew into his hand.
"Well, since it belongs to an old friend, I can't continue to use it for collection. If you can come up with more supplies, this knife can be considered a gift."
"What supplies?"
Looking at Xun Wu in front of him, Bai Zhi frowned slightly.
"Well, it's very simple, just these ordinary supplies."
Putting the [Night Knife] casually on the table, Xun Wu pointed at the things next to him.
"Meat, wine, poultry... I only need these ordinary supplies, but the quantity must be doubled several times. Although I have the idea of taking advantage of the situation, I want to maintain our relationship more than these. friendship.”
"… Can."
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi nodded.
"Quick, your Excellency is indeed a happy person."
After laughing a few times, Xun Wu picked it up and drank a large sip.
"As for the incident that happened 85 years ago, if you want to know the details, I have to go back and look through the relevant files. How about we talk about it another day?"
"no problem."
This time, Phalaenopsis answered for Bai Zhi first.
"If that's the case, then I'll go back first."
With a slight smile in his mouth, Xun Wu stood up from the table and waved his sleeves lightly towards the ground aside.
Following his movements, the dazzling array of collectibles originally displayed on the ground disappeared without a trace.
"I had no choice but to imprison you here before. For this reason, I am here to apologize to you. Later, I will have someone come to take you to a new place to stay. I would also like to invite everyone Don’t hesitate to reward me.”
After saying this, Xun Wu calmly walked out of the door without waiting for any reaction from them.
… By the way, he took away the remaining half of the roasted whole lamb, a large pot of crayfish and half of the roasted chicken on the table.
Everyone: "..."
"How's it going? What's the specific situation?"
Looking at the night knife held by Bai Zhi, Phalaenopsis couldn't help but ask.
"...It is indeed her knife."
After staring at the [Night Knife] in his hand for a moment, Bai Zhi nodded.
His innate skills allow him to communicate with all things, and this knife is no exception. According to the feedback he received from the knife, this knife has indeed remained as a collection for 85 years.
As for the news about the deceased Zero... I'm sorry, it's too long ago, and there are only so many things that this sword can remember.
"If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that Dead Zero and his team went to 85 years ago?"
After receiving Bai Zhi's affirmative reply, Phalaenopsis' complexion could not help but change slightly.
"Maybe... I would have known that I would have brought the [Kunlun Mirror] here."
Bai Zhi shook his head as he placed the [Yako] back on the table.
"Forget it, let's ignore this kind of thing for now and wait until we get the specific details of what happened 85 years ago from that guy tomorrow. Compared with these things, there are some things we have to make decisions about."
As he spoke, Bai Zhi turned to look at Yuzi, who was lying on the table and slowly drinking orange juice.
At the moment above her head, the small sapling has bloomed, looking a bit like a blue rosemary.
"No... are you sure we want to plant flowers on our heads too?"
Looking at the rosemary on Yuzi's head, Li from the mountainside had a look of disgust on his face.
- Just imagining the scene of holding a flower on his head in his mind, he felt that he couldn't bear it anymore.
"You don't have to plant it. Anyway, you are a disciple of Buddha, and you have the blessing of three Buddha treasures. Maybe you can leave a whole body when the time comes."
Glancing at Li, the man on the mountainside, Bai Zhi looked indifferent.
"It just so happens that we are lacking a control group here. I am very pleased that you can stand up bravely."
Mountainside man Li: "..."
"Don't worry, I have experienced it myself. Planting this won't have much impact."
After finishing the orange juice in the glass, Yuzu sat up straight.
"Even if something goes wrong, I can remove it from my body at any time... Well, it's like this."
As she spoke, she casually grabbed the top of her head. While a faint emerald green light filled her palm, she plucked out the rosemary growing on her head.
"Then it's nothing...wait, what do you do?"
As if she suddenly thought of something, Phalaenopsis looked at Huan Yan aside with some worry.
This kind of strange [Protective Plant] can obviously only be planted in flesh and blood. As for the ghost, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it can be planted with [Protective Plant].
"Don't worry, I have the means to protect myself, you don't have to worry about me."
He showed a rare smile to Phalaenopsis, and Huanyan spoke.
"When it comes to life-saving means, I am better than any of you."
"Then let's do it this way."
After looking at Huan Yan, Bai Zhi nodded.
The implantation method of the protective implant is very simple. They only need to hold the spinous algae balls in the palm of their hand. During this process, they will not feel any pain.
And not long after they all planted protective plants except for Summoning Smoke, the people sent by Xun Wu happened to arrive outside the prison door.
Under the guidance of the other party, they left the cell and came to a brand new courtyard-like place. After sending them here and saying that if they had any needs, they left first.
Unlike the cells, here in the courtyard, they could see several floating islands located at extremely high altitudes as soon as they looked up.
It seems to be night time here in Shanhaijie. The sky is foggy, and you can vaguely see the flickering lights on the floating islands, like a few lanterns hanging high in the sky.
"Wait, if this happens, will the Li family not be able to find us?"
As if he suddenly thought of something, he turned to look at Bai Zhi, and Phalaenopsis asked.
"After all, you said before..."
"Oh, don't worry about this, I've already gone to find someone from the Li family."
After yawning, Bai Zhi randomly picked a room and walked over.
"Everyone, let's get some sleep first. In a ghost place like this, your energy is consumed very quickly..."
With a clang sound, Bai Zhi closed the door directly.
Phalaenopsis:"… …"
… … … … … … … … …
The night is dark and windy.
Sitting in front of the window, Li Ruoyue looked at the "lights" high in the sky from a distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
It wasn't until a long time later, with a gust of evening wind blowing by, that Li Ruoyue sighed and reached out to close the window.
But when he took her back to the inner room to rest, he was shocked to find a human-shaped black figure sitting quietly next to the dark table in the room from unknown time.
"who are you?"
Stopping cautiously, Li Ruoyue looked over there with a slight frown.
"Me? You can call me a stranger."
As a chuckle sounded in the air, Li Ruoyue saw the black figure gently snap his fingers in his hand.
So in an instant, the candles on the screen beside him were quietly lit, and under the candlelight, a handsome-looking face appeared.
…or more than just handsome.
In addition to affecting your affinity for everything in the world, the level of your charm value also directly affects strangers' first impressions of you.
So far, Bai Zhi's charm value has exceeded 100. Under the influence of such a high amount of charm, he easily made the eldest lady of the Li family in front of him put down her guard, let alone his The talent core itself also has a bonus to charm.
"It was you who destroyed my family's medicine field?"
Thoughts were racing in his mind. As he sat down at the other end of the table, Li Ruoyue asked calmly.
It was also the first impression the other party gave her that was pretty good. Otherwise, if the person sitting there was an ugly and wretched guy, she would have just sent a signal to call him.
Although she was curious about how the other party found her place so accurately, she was more curious about why the other party came to her in the middle of the night than these things.
"Medicine field? It was just a simple accident. I will make compensation as appropriate."
With a slight sigh in his mouth, Bai Zhi opened his mouth to answer.
"As you can see, we are outsiders from other gathering places, or merchants. This is my first time here in Tianqiu Valley. I hope to get the general situation here in Guanguan from you. Learn more.”
"Really? So this is the reason why you sneaked into the girl's boudoir quietly in the middle of the night?"
Looking at the "stranger" in front of him, Li Ruoyue's words contained a hint of sarcasm.
"And after destroying all my precious medicinal fields?"
"So we said it was just an accident and we will compensate you for your losses later. Why do you insist on holding on to this point?"
Bai Zhi reached out and scratched his hair, looking a little distressed.
"We are a caravan, are you still worried that we can't compensate you for your losses?"
"For related compensation matters, you can just talk to the people from the Criminal Division directly, instead of sneaking in with ulterior motives in the middle of the night."
Li Ruoyue's tone was cold and she issued the eviction order without mercy.
"If nothing happens, I hope you can leave as soon as possible. I can pretend that this incident never happened tonight."
"What, are you sure you want to hand over all these matters to the people in the Criminal Investigation Department?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Bai Zhi spread his hands in front of him.
"But judging from your previous conversations, it seems that your direct communication was not pleasant."
"Were you there?"
After Bai Zhi said these words, Li Ruoyue's brows suddenly furrowed.
"Yes, I think...so I said something wrong?"
Seeing the girl in front of him who suddenly stood up and pointed her sword at him, Bai Zhi couldn't help but raise his hands helplessly.
"Between the interests of the Li family and the interests of Tianqiu Valley, the latter's interests come first. If you want to find a breakthrough from me, you'd better give up."
Looking at Bai Zhi in front of her, Li Ruoyue spoke coldly.
"Although I hate that guy from the Criminal Investigation Department, I hate you even more for being so sneaky and with ulterior motives. No matter what conspiracy you are planning, but you..."
"Well, I think there may be a misunderstanding between us."
With a slight sigh in his mouth, Bai Zhi interrupted the other party's words.
"I really don't have any conspiracy, I just want to know a little bit about something from you... Can you hear me out?"
Rolling his eyes, Bai Zhi used two fingers to hold the tip of the sword that was swinging towards him.
A faint red light went from the tip of the sword all the way up the hilt, and reached the palm of the opponent's hand in the blink of an eye. With a cry of surprise, the sword was released from the girl's hand.
Since mastering the term [Black Sun], whenever he has time, he will deliberately exercise his control over flames... At the beginning, he burned a lot of skewers.
However, as his proficiency deepened, he was able to perform quite a few operations.
Holding the long sword in one hand, Bai Zhi casually threw it back into its sheath.
"Trust is hard to build, but it only takes a moment to destroy. Before you make an unwise choice, I hope you can at least listen to what I have to say."
"..."
After staring at him for a while, Li Ruoyue silently sat back at the table while covering the burned palm of her right hand.
"Want something to drink?"
Looking at the expressionless face of the girl in front of him, Bai Zhi took out a few cans of beer from Najie after thinking for a moment.
"That's right. You can also check the quality of the product first."
