Originally, she thought that the one-month period had passed and the agreement had not been reached, and Jiexing would not agree to her going to the south. Unexpectedly, this time, it was the master who said goodbye first.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu's heart felt extremely heavy, and she started to feel sad even before she left. Originally she was just here to visit, but she didn't expect that it would suddenly turn into a farewell.
Xiao Yu's eyes were blurred, and she knelt down in front of the hut while holding back her cry and curling her lips.
"Master, let me go in and see you. Since Master allows me to go south, I must take a look at Master before leaving, otherwise I will not be able to leave with peace of mind."
Xiao Yu said with concern.
But after a long time, no words came from the door.
"Master..."
"No need... you have completed the breakthrough. Although this time is a bit dangerous, it is not your fault. It is my teacher who took it lightly. I don't blame you."
Inside the door, Ji Xing's voice sounded again, and this time, Xiao Yu could tell that the voice was at the door, and the master and apprentice were separated by a door.
She was happy in her heart, thinking that the door would open soon, but after waiting for a long time, it did not happen as she expected.
"If I hadn't forced you and deliberately limited the time limit for your breakthrough, you wouldn't have gone crazy." The voice inside the door continued.
"You must remember that my teacher will not be with you from now on. If you cannot come back in time for your next breakthrough, please take it slow for a while. If the situation forces you to break through, you must do it step by step and never act rashly."
From inside the door, Ji Xing's low-pitched admonitions were heard, followed by a few faint coughs. Although the other party had concealed them well, Xiao Yu could still hear them clearly.
The coughing sound made her a little anxious, so she simply climbed to the door and started knocking on the door regardless of etiquette.
"Master, please let me go in and take a look. I just took a look when I was in the cold place. I didn't see enough. I haven't seen you for many days. I miss you and want to say goodbye face to face before leaving. Please open the door!"
As she said that, Xiao Yu quietly stretched out her hand and tried to push the door open, but there was a restriction on the door, and no matter how hard she pushed it, it wouldn't budge.
There was a long silence inside the door, and then a sigh spread from inside.
"No need, my master has prepared some necessary things for you. You can take a rest and set off early tomorrow morning. If there is any life or death crisis, you can let me know through the grain insect, and my master will definitely go to rescue you."
"Be obedient and go ahead..."
After the words fell, a tiny coughing sound came from the door again, but after two coughs, it was stopped by the people inside the door. After that, there was no sound from inside.
Xiao Yu knelt outside the door, feeling very sad, but she also knew that if she continued to disturb her like this, Jixing would not be able to rest, so she no longer begged to come in, but first carefully collected the few precious things that Jixing had prepared.
Get up so that the other person can feel at ease.
"Then Master, please rest early. I will come back tomorrow morning to say goodbye to Master."
Xiao Yu said, although he was reluctant to leave, he still bowed deeply towards the door, then stood up and left.
Just as he was about to turn around and go back to the tree house, a breeze suddenly hit his face, and a familiar aroma of wine floated from the bottom of the valley. Xiao Yu followed the smell and saw that there was a light at the bottom of the valley.
With fire flickering in his eyes, Xiao Yu looked back at the door worriedly for a long time, then bowed to the hut again, then turned around and flew towards the bottom of the valley.
Not long after Xiao Yu landed, Dahui took Lu Yiyi out of the tree house at some point and threw her to Xiao Yu's feet.
Maybe she was hurt by the fall, so she hummed a few times, opened her eyes and saw Xiao Yu sitting next to her, she suddenly stood upright, hummed and climbed onto Xiao Yu's lap, and then fell asleep again.
past.
Xiao Yu has long been accustomed to being so sleepwalking on the road, so Xiao Yu no longer thinks there is anything strange.
While eating rabbit, pounding beans, and drinking fine wine, Xiao Yu's eyes finally fell on the pile of gold notes in front of Hu Tao'er.
These bills were the promise Meishan had fulfilled when he left the Mei family compound a month ago, totaling 20 million gold. One million gold was used to buy Lu Yiran, and the rest is all here.
Hu Tao'er crossed her arms and sat cross-legged by the fire, staring at the pile of gold notes thoughtfully. Although her eyes were narrowed to a thin line, her vivid pupils could still be seen.
"You're stupid, tell me first." Hu Tao'er said.
"What?"
Xiao Yu had some doubts about her ears. Seeing that Hu Taoer rolled her eyes at her, she was sure that she had heard correctly just now.
So, she cleared her throat, looked helplessly at Lu Yiran, who was sleeping unconscious, and expressed her thoughts on how to "divide the spoils."
"Ahem, what, let's divide it equally. The one million must be paid by me, it's fair and just."
Xiao Yu's eyes were fixed on the pile of bills from beginning to end, his eyes flickering, as if mansions were flashing before his eyes. He had never seen so much money in his life.
"Seconded."
Lin Keqing, who was sitting on Big Gray's head, was stroking Big Gray's furry head and talking with a smile, with excitement that could not be concealed in his eyes.
As if he had known that they would say this, Hu Taoer slapped the pile of bills with her big hand, and took the bills in front of her, with a "disappointed" look on her face, and looked at Xiao.
rain.
"Humph, I knew you would say that. How ungrateful." Hu Taoer squeezed out a few words through her teeth.
"Doctor Hu, what do you say? Is it possible that you want to monopolize it?"
Xiao Yu asked loudly, her eyes never leaving the note. She waved her hand in front of her, and the sword was already lying on the grass in front of her, ready to fight at any time.
"You have weapons, is it possible that I don't? I made it clear that I don't agree to an equal division. I want at least half of it, and 10 million of the gold will belong to me!"
As she said this, Hu Taoer refused to give in at all, her palms were filled with demonic power, and a ghost-thorn whip shining with lightning was already in her hand. She was not afraid of fighting.
"Oh? The people who are looking for trouble dare to be so loud and talk as if no one has it. I still insist on dividing it equally. If you want to fight, just come over!"
As a shocking sound rose from the bottom of the valley, a longer ghost-thorn whip was thrown fiercely by Xiao Yu in the air, and she showed a hint of provocation.
"One inch long, one inch strong!" Xiao Yu said with a strange air.
"you!"
Hu Tao'er's eyes turned red in anger. She immediately stood up from the ground, stretched out her hand towards Da Hui on the side, and suddenly pulled the extremely strong Da Hui behind her, her power surged.
She kicked Da Hui hard on the butt, and Da Hui's body immediately became as tall as two people. He looked majestic and roared to the sky, which was so shocking that Lin Keqing had to leave him and float to the ground.
"Hmph! There is no horse, but there is a big demon! Every inch longer, every inch stronger!"
Hu Tao'er looked proud, squinted and snorted coldly.
But Xiao Yu was unhurried. She stood up slowly, rolled up her sleeves and bent down to lift the sleeping Lu Yi from the ground, and forced her to stand in front of her.
"Hmph! With the same level of cultivation, four taels can move a thousand catties!"
With that said, Xiao Yu slapped Lu Yiran hard on the buttocks. The other person's little body shook and he made a humming sound from his mouth.
"You cheated! Do people also count?" Hu Taoer pinched her waist and cursed angrily.
"Don't worry about me! Dogs count, why don't people count?" Xiao Yu disagreed and retorted fiercely.
"You are shameless!"
"You scoundrel!"
…
As you came and went, Hu Taoer and Xiao Yu unconsciously began to bicker. For a while, the whole valley was extremely noisy, making Lin Keqing on the side feel very speechless.
The green eyes were still looking towards the road. The girl was still snoring. She was held in Xiao Yu's hand like a little chicken, her limbs were drooping, and she was dangling around, looking very pitiful.
"You two are almost done, can you stop being so naive! If you have the ability, you can fight with real swords and guns. What's the use of just talking! I despise you..."
As Lin Keqing spoke, a gust of wind blew up from her sleeves, blowing the stack of bills towards herself. Before the two people opposite could say a word, she was already blocking the bills.
"Taozi, why don't you first tell me the reason why you don't want to share it equally? Why do you want to take half?"
Lin Keqing half-covered her face and said to Hu Tao'er with a smile in her eyes.
Unknowingly, she became the mediator, and she also wanted to hear why Hu Taoer wanted half as much.
"Sister, I will tell you the truth here today." Hu Taoer stretched her neck, curled her mouth, and spoke a little loudly.
She still pinched her waist and snorted coldly at Xiao Yu and Lin Keqing. Then she waved her hand in the air, and frames of pictures were displayed in a cloud of red mist.
The picture clearly records the scene when Hu Taoer and Dahui continued to consume demon yuan and replenish their demon power in the battle for more than ten days during the days when Xiao Yu went crazy.
Almost every day, she had to consume more than ten or twenty demon elements of different levels, because in such a critical situation, she could not spare the time to go to the mountains to capture the snow demon, so she could only use local materials to devour her incomparable demon essence.
The precious demon essence.
"There are two hundred and ninety-four in total. Even if there is more than one, I am cheating. These are the treasures that I have worked hard to save over the years. They were all lost for no reason because of you. You can't even buy them with money. For this reason
If I give you more money, it’s not too much, right?!”
As Hu Tao'er spoke, her expression gradually became aggrieved, and even her eyes turned red. As she was recovering from her injuries, the more she thought about her painful experience of not being better than death for the past ten years, the more lingering fear she felt and the more aggrieved she became.
Because her losses this time were really heavy, shaking the foundation of the wealth she had always been proud of.
