"This is the situation. I need the mail urgently, so I can't return it to you for the time being. But I promise that I will not lose it."
Dashengguan, Weifu.
Lu Bei explained the whole cause and effect in the study room, and patted his chest to make a promise to Wei Mao that Lu would keep his word and would return what he borrowed, but the return date would be extended a little.
Rounded off, it basically means borrow and return on the same day.
Wei Mao stuffed the fifty thousand taels of silver into his arms, without dwelling on the matter of the chain mail. He frowned and said, "A centipede dies but remains alive; a thousand-year-old tortoise dies but leaves its shell. Qingqian was destroyed eight hundred years ago, and the remnants are hiding very deep, and it is impossible to exterminate them. Suddenly, a large tomb of a royal descendant appears... This matter is too strange. I advise you to think it over before leaving."
"Don't worry, cousin. I'm afraid of everything, but death comes first. I won't risk my life." Lu Bei nodded in agreement.
"Taking risks is secondary. If you are targeted by the remnants of Qingqian because of this incident, your good days will be over."
"We'll talk about it later. If it doesn't work, I'll just watch and not go in."
"I hope you'll keep your promise."
Wei Mao looked at Lu Bei deeply, and then asked: "Can you trust the demon cultivators you are working with?"
“I can believe half of it.”
"Be careful, don't let her use you as a gun."
“It’s natural.”
…
After parting with She Xuan, Lu Bei returned to Yuhua Gate, leaving behind a Qiankun bag containing Qi Ling Dan and cooked food, and told Hu Bo that a decoration team would be visiting soon, and to be careful when activating the formation so as not to hurt the craftsmen.
But if the craftsman has bad intentions and wants to change his job to a scholar with ulterior motives, there is no need to show mercy and just blast him to pieces.
After bidding farewell to the little foxes who were reluctant to leave, Lu Bei rushed to Dasheng Pass as quickly as possible. Using his connections in the alchemy room, he worked overtime to refine pills and gain experience.
The other alchemists were overwhelmed by his hard work. It was obvious that Lu Bei was not making medicine at all, he was just lowering the labor costs in order to squeeze them out.
Despite his busy schedule, Lu Bei did not forget to go to Zhu's house for a meal, and by the way, he made an appointment to meet with his former teammate Luo Ban, and bought a batch of throwing knives at his own price.
When going out, a self-destructing flying prop is essential. He currently doesn't know how to refine it, so he can only solve the problem with money.
Luo Ban, grateful for Lu Bei's life-saving grace, accepted some symbolic change and sent hundreds of throwing knives and a Qiankun bag the next day.
He was very loyal. The small change he received was not enough to cover the value of the Qiankun bag, not to mention the cost of refining the flying knife. He was loyal, so Lu Bei naturally could not be vague. When talking about the tomb, he implicitly mentioned the identity of the tomb owner.
After hearing this, Roban understood what was said. He thanked him and left in a hurry.
Lu Bei had heard Zhu Bo mention Luo Ban's background and his previous job as a guard. He knew that providing intelligence was not only a courtesy, but also meant to muddy the waters.
The mission description clearly indicated that the exploration of the ruins was very complicated and someone was planning something behind the scenes. He had an average appearance and average strength, and if he plunged in, he would most likely fail. He had to muddy the waters before he could fish.
Twelve days passed in a flash. Lu Bei defeated other alchemists in the alchemy room and was named the Outstanding Employee of the Month. The prize was a green quality alchemy furnace.
This is not important. What is important is that I have gained more than 400,000 experience points. Together with the 40,000 contributed by She Yan, I have barely broken through 500,000 experience points.
Without any hesitation, Lu Bei added his experience to the 'Introduction to Formations', leveling up three levels in a row. His basic attributes all increased to varying degrees, allowing him to successfully start his new secondary profession, 'Formation Master', and gain proficiency in basic formations.
If you want to live for a long time underground, you must know the basic knowledge of the Dao of Arrays. Lu Bei first upgraded the Array Master to Lv6 before he dared to use the remaining experience to upgrade the existing attack skills.
Looking at the personal panel, it is not difficult to find that Lu Bei has put a lot of effort into the "Demon Slaying Sutra", and the levels of other skills, techniques, and secondary occupations are obviously lower than the main occupation level. He is lame...
There is a lot of room for improvement.
There's nothing that can be done about it. His techniques and skills require too much experience. Fortunately, they are worth the money and are far better than accounts of the same level. Otherwise, I would have to delete my account and start over.
Name: Lu Bei
Attributes: Strength 243, Speed 212, Spirit 335, Stamina 241, Charm 6, Luck 3
Free attribute point storage + skill point inventory ↑ + basic attribute ↑ + skill power ↑ + output defense ↑ = mentality expansion
Lu Bei was very happy: "I haven't seen you for ten days. You have made a small breakthrough in your cultivation. Aunt Snake will definitely be very happy to see you. The more experience the better. I will fight her a few more times on the way."
…
Outside Dasheng Pass, Lu Bei met She Xuan in the wilderness, alone, with no extra teammates.
"Aunt Snake, you're really good at finding... Hey, what's wrong with your face?"
Lu Bei looked at the other person in confusion. She had a thin waist and a thick chest. Her figure remained the same, but her whole face had changed. Although she was beautiful, it was very unfamiliar at first glance.
She Xuan didn't explain anything and handed a human skin mask to Lu Bei: "Put it on. This time, our partner is different from Commander Zhu. Change your face and set off again."
"What is the material like? Can it be used on sensitive skin?"
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"Okay, I'll trust you this time."
Lu Bei stroked the human skin mask with his fingertips. The texture was no different from real leather. He secretly praised it and compared it with his face. He was conflicted: "If I'm not mistaken, Aunt Snake, this mask should be made by you with your own face skin. I will just stick it on... If I have physical contact with her, I will not be pure. How can I get married in the future?"
"You think too much, yours is made of pig skin."
She Xuan said expressionlessly, "Put it on quickly. You are not afraid of trouble. I don't want to get into trouble because of you. Remember that the human skin mask is waterproof but not fireproof. Don't let anyone see your face."
"These days, some people actually call themselves pigs. I don't understand. I really don't understand the old people's way of thinking." Lu Bei shook his head and sighed. He put the human skin on his face. The size was just right and it was breathable.
It's just that his appearance is a little ugly. Lu Bei lowered his head to take a picture by the river. What he saw was a man with triangular eyes and a black mole. The mole was on the right cheek, and there was a black hair on it.
There are two kinds of people in the world, one is good-looking and the other is ugly. Right now he is in the middle and is very ugly.
"Not bad, it looks much better."
She Xuan couldn't stop laughing, her face reflected her heart. It was pure blindness that a pretty boy was paired with Lu Bei, this wretched face was more in line with his character.
Lu Bei: “…”
Facing She Yan's ridicule, he remained unmoved, staring at the wretched face in the water without blinking, with an indescribable weirdness in his eyes.
This hair on the mole...
What’s the origin
…
The two left Dasheng Pass and headed eastward. Lu Bei and She Xuan spent every day together and their feelings quickly heated up until the fifth time when they were unable to gain any experience.
She Xuan also gained a lot from spending the past few days together. She confirmed again and again that Lu Bei had a mental problem and that arguing with him would only make herself uncomfortable.
Abandoned mineral wasteland on the border of Dongqi County.
The mountains were hollowed out and collapsed, half-covered by green shade, black rubble scattered across the ground, and rising dust swirled, casting a layer of yellow mist over the remaining green shade.
A team of thirty people was ready to go, heading straight for the Grand Canyon deep in the wilderness.
The team has a large number of people, but it is not surprising in the eyes of local gangs. The mine has been abandoned for many years, and rumors of spiritual crystals being dug out continue to circulate. Every year and every month, monks come here to try their luck.
Lu Bei followed She Xuan and hung at the end of the team. He glanced at the figure in the front and thought to himself that it was outrageous.
He is obviously a man, but he is more beautiful than senior sister Bai Jin.
