lord of all phenomena

Chapter 25 Abnormal Humans

After leaving the antique shop, Gu Qing didn't go home directly, he went to the pharmacy.

Gu Qing checked the "Wang's Materia Medica" carefully, and found nothing unusual, so he burned the book, anyway, he had already understood and digested the contents.

He opened the door of the pharmacy, and then made a potion in the inner courtyard that could make words invisible.If someone came to buy medicine, his hearing and sharpness were enough for him to detect in advance.

Moreover, it would be very suspicious to open a pharmacy without doing business.Since it's acting, then do the whole set.

The composition of the potion on the envelope has already been analyzed by him, and the next step is to determine the correct amount, which is not difficult for him.However, Gu Qing felt that his tools were a bit crude, and he felt more and more that he needed a secret room dedicated to making medicine and researching various things.

This secret room is not suitable for a pharmacy, it is better at home.

Fortunately, the courtyard where he lived originally had a cellar, which could be transformed into a secret room.Before renovating the yard, there was no shortage of tools at home. Gu Qing could make the mechanism to cover the cellar in the past two days. As for the ventilation, drying, and various reconstructions in the back, just proceed slowly.

Of course, apart from using various means to promote his cultivation, he also has another worry, which is the whereabouts of monsters.

When will it come again?
Gu Qing remembered this incident in his heart, but he was not afraid of it.If the monster reappeared, he believed that he would be able to solve it, and at the same time settle one matter.

As the afternoon passed, only two patients came to buy medicine, which was in line with Gu Qing's expectations.The fewer patients the better, but not without them.

Gu Qing also successfully made the potion.

After checking the pharmacy, Gu Qing closed the door and left.

Did not encounter yesterday's weird thing during this period.

It seems that the monster may not come to him today.

Its injury last night should not have recovered.If the monster does not appear tonight, Gu Qing can draw a very likely judgment that the monster is still clear-headed and knows the stakes.

If it loses its mind, it should come to Gu Qing again regardless of what it wants for what it wants.

A sane monster is harder to deal with than an insane one.

But if Gu Qing can catch it, he will have the opportunity to obtain the information he wants, such as the true origin of the Buddha statue and whether it has other functions and effects.

Gu Qing returned home and began to renovate the cellar.

Fortunately, only Xu Slowly's yard is adjacent to his yard. Xu Slowly is ill and will not move here for the time being, so no one has noticed the renovation of the appearance of the cellar for the time being.

Behind is the internal reconstruction, which is even more difficult to be noticed.

For two days in a row, as long as he was at home, Gu Qing fell into the work of renovating the secret room.

The external renovation has been completed, only the internal details are left, which can be regarded as a long-term task, and there is no need to rush it for a while.

During this period, the monster did not appear.

But in the evening, Gu Qing saw Xu Slowly.

She came alone, her face was still very pale, and it could be seen that she was just recovering from a serious illness.Although she usually looks weak, but now she has a feeling of falling down when the wind blows.

Xu slowly picked up the pocket, which contained clothes.

"Sorry, I kept you waiting for two more days." When Xu slowly handed over the clothes to Gu Qing, he blamed himself a bit.

Gu Qing took the clothes and looked around to make sure there was no one there.

He said: "Miss Xu, the night you were sick, I was attacked by a monster. It looks like a zombie."

Xu slowly changed his expression, but he didn't speak.

Gu Qing said: "You know it."

He didn't use a questioning tone, but said very firmly.

Gu Qing's eyes stared at Xu Slowly, and he didn't intend to look away.

Xu slowly lowered his head at first, as if he couldn't bear it, he raised his head.Her eyes are very clear, but it gives people a feeling of indescribable sadness.

"I know." Xu slowly finally responded.

She seemed relieved by this.

Xu Huan slowly showed a forced smile, and said, "I'm really not good at lying, Mr. Gu, you seem to be fine, I'm actually very happy."

Gu Qing was a little surprised to see Xu Ranman's answer so calmly, but it showed that Xu Ranman's intentions were too deep, or she was really a girl who was neither hypocritical nor artificial.

He doesn't believe in the former, nor in the latter, Gu Qing's judgment on Xu Slowly should change dynamically from now on.

Gu Qing said: "That night, when it was escaping, I heard a strange musical instrument sound, did you play it?"

Xu pondered for a while, as if he had made up his mind, and then said: "Mr. Gu, if you continue to understand, your fate will fall into an unpredictable situation."

Gu Qing said: "Everyone's fate is unpredictable."

Xu slowly said: "No, you should understand that most people know what he will do tomorrow. Some people feel that this is a day-to-day repetition, which is very boring and meaningless. Some people want to escape from this kind of repetition, and some people But I feel like it’s a form of protection. Being in familiar situations will make people feel safe. Not everyone wants their life to change suddenly.”

Gu Qing said: "Do you like a life that is not changed?"

Xu slowly said: "I like making clothes, listening to music, reading novels and tasting delicious pastries. I would rather live this kind of life every day, but I can't. I heard Grandpa Fang talk about you. I envy your life a little bit, From the day I saw you, I can feel the tranquility and indifference in you, which I envy."

Gu Qing thought: "You're wrong, it's just numbness."

His past experience has made him develop this kind of numbness. Even if this life is different from the past, the deep-rooted numbness will not be easily changed.

Gu Qing tidied up the yard, also hoping to dilute this numbness with the enthusiasm of life.

He said: "Everyone has something that others envy, for example, others envy you... for your good looks."

Xu slowly blushed, and she said, "Thank you."

Gu Qing didn't want to continue this topic, said: "I hope to thank me with the truth."

Xu slowly sighed and said, "Since you insist on knowing this, I will tell you. You are a practitioner."

Gu Qing nodded, there is nothing to hide now.

Xu slowly said: "Cousin is too. You are all the same practitioners. But I am different from you, although I also have a little ability beyond your imagination."

Gu Qing said: "Then what are you?"

Xu slowly said: "Psychic, I can hear, see, and feel many voices, lights and shadows wandering in the void. The most important thing is that I can communicate with the consciousness of those who have passed away. We are abnormal humans."

"We?" Gu Qing pondered the meaning of these two words silently.
