Chapter 74 I Refuse

After lunch, Shi Xiaohan left Gu Xu's house.

The small room was silent again.

"I wonder if this priceless snow ginseng can prolong my life..." Gu Xu looked at the empty bowl in front of him, and such a thought came to his mind.

While thinking about it, he took out a copper coin from his pocket, tossed it up gently, and silently recited the name of God in his mouth, trying to learn the answer to the question through divination.

In the blink of an eye, the copper coin landed on the table with a bang.

Back side up.

This obviously proves that snow ginseng can only improve his physical health to a certain extent, but it cannot increase his lifespan—if he can't cultivate to the seventh level before the age of 30, reshape his body, and become a saint, he will still die. die young.

"Maybe that astrology book is right," he thought to himself, "the reason why I have a short lifespan is because of my destiny... I am weak and sick, but it is a side effect...

"But the question is, if I'm really the rich and powerful Ziwei, why am I still so poor now?"

Looking at his humble and cramped house, the outdated and plain furniture, and the few medicinal pills on hand, he couldn't help shaking his head helplessly.

…………

Afterwards, Gu Xu, as usual, sat cross-legged on the bamboo mat, took a "Changming Pill", closed his eyes, silently recited the formula of "Scarlet Flame True Jue", and entered a state of cultivation.

The yin between heaven and earth turned into a vortex, pouring into his body, and then under his repeated tempering, it turned into a scorching lava-like true essence, roaring and roaring in his meridians.

An hour has passed.

When the efficacy of "Changming Dan" was exhausted, he successfully entered the realm of "Huangquan Second Song" step by step.

At this time, he clearly felt that the real energy in his body became more majestic and thicker than before.

…………

This afternoon, Gu Xu did three things at home: improving his realm, practicing the "meteor walking on the moon" movement technique, and perfecting the third-generation "Tai Shang North Pole Suppressing Demon and Killing Ghost Talisman".

In addition, he also entertained two guests at the home.

The first guest was Shi Xiaohan's maid, whose name was "Chenxi". She was a young girl with beautiful eyebrows and light freckles.

Chenxi was the first servant girl of Shi Xiaohan's grandmother Zhao Chanyi - at that time, her name was still called "Nianxue".

At that time, after Xiaohan was married, Zhao Chanyi gave this maid to Shi Xiaohan.

Shi Xiaohan felt that the name "Nianxue" was too soft and graceful and did not match his unrestrained and unrestrained heroine style, so he changed the name of the maid to "Qingshuang".

"Qingshuang" means that the sword light is as green as frost.

In the Daqi Dynasty, the term "Zidian Qingshuang" was often used to refer to the sword.

Later, Shi Xiaohan felt that the artistic conception of the name "Qingshuang" was too chilling, so he changed the name of the maid to "Chenxi", which means "morning light".

After learning about these things, Gu Xu was very sympathetic to this maid.

In just one year, the name has been changed twice, and it is not easy to adapt to it.

"Master Gu, this is a gift from my young lady." After curtseying, the maid Chenxi respectfully handed three bottles of "Changming Dan" to Gu Xu's hands, "Please accept it with a smile. ."

"Please convey my thanks to your lady for me!" Gu Xu took the porcelain bottle and smiled sincerely.

At this moment, he couldn't count how much medicine he owed Shi Xiaohan.

"When I have strength and money in the future, I will repay her slowly..." he thought helplessly.

The second guest was Ma Qin, a newcomer from the Yishui Exorcism Division.

As soon as he walked into Gu Xu's house, Ma Qin clasped his fists with both hands, and moved towards Gu Xuchang and touched the ground.

"Brother Ma, don't be too polite! Let's talk about something!" Seeing such a scene, Gu Xu immediately stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and helped Ma Qin up.

"Xiaguan is here to thank Master Gu for saving his life." Ma Qin raised his head and said sincerely.

"A life-saving grace?"

Gu Xu frowned slightly.

Since he participated in the promotion assessment in the fantasy world of "Reviewing the Ancient Pot", he has never performed any tasks with Ma Qin, let alone when he saved Ma Qin's life.

"It was you who drew the 'Ghost Killing Talisman', Master Gu," Ma Qin quickly answered Gu Xu's confusion, "I received a task yesterday asking me to kill a monster named in the woods on the outskirts of Yishui. The ghost of the 'sack'.

"This goblin's vitality is much stronger than I imagined. I used up all the real energy and only chopped it down to death, but it has the ability to quickly recover itself. If it wasn't for me before I exchanged five 'Ghost Killing Talismans' drawn by you in the warehouse, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back here alive."

"Brother Ma, this is the 'Ghost Killing Talisman' you exchanged for your own abilities, so you don't need to thank me." Gu Xu waved his hand and responded.

"No, no, no," Ma Qin immediately shook his head when he heard his words, "Master Gu, this is because the 'Ghost Killing Talisman' you drew is different and terrifyingly powerful—if this talisman was drawn by someone else Yes, I'm afraid it won't be enough to help me get out of danger."

"What's the effect of 'killing ghosts' on the 'sack'?" As a cultivator who loves to research and improve talismans, Gu Xu couldn't help but ask.

"Very good," Ma Qin replied without hesitation, "At that time, before I could react, the 'sack' turned to ashes in an instant.

"Now, Mr. Gu, your 'Ghost Killing Talisman' is very popular in our yamen! This month's talisman has been redeemed, and even next month's share has been reserved in advance!
"Alas, it's a pity that I don't have the talent to learn Talisman Dao, otherwise I will definitely take you as my teacher and learn from you how to draw the 'Ghost Killing Talisman'!"

…………

After Ma Qin left, Gu Xu sat back on the bamboo mat, ready to start practicing the "solar eclipse" spell and continue to strengthen his consciousness.

However, at this moment, the "magic machine token" on his table once again flashed a dazzling light.

"Is there a new mission at the Shenji Camp?"

He stood up, walked over to the desk, and reached for the token.

A few lines of text appeared in his field of vision:

"The Lu family's haunted house in Qingzhou Prefecture has been haunted for many years. The Exorcism Division has sent people to investigate many times, but so far there is no result. Please accept the task..."

"I reject!"

After reading this, Gu Xu immediately put the 'magic machine token' back in place and ignored it.

Are you kidding me?
The case of Lu's haunted house, this is a case that even the fourth-level cultivator Chu Fengge can't solve, so let me, a poor, helpless, second-level cultivator, solve it?

It just wants me to die!
…………

PS: It's the beginning of the month, ask for a monthly pass!
