Just when Xu Xian looked at Hu Hu curiously, Hu Hu pointed to the corner of the space not far away and said: "Boss, the watermelons in the watermelon field are ripe."
"Is the watermelon ripe?!"
Xu Xian looked happy and hurried to the watermelon patch.
It was now late May, and the entire Jinling City was almost turning into a big furnace. When he went out today, he still felt a little hot.
It would be so beautiful to be able to take a bite of a big, juicy and sweet watermelon in such weather.
Sure enough, among the lush watermelon leaves, dozens of large and round watermelons were lying quietly.
Xu Xian couldn't help but squat down and play the watermelon a few times. The sound was crisp and clear, it was a good melon!
After today's experience during the day, Xu Xian felt that anything growing in the Jinzhu Space should not be treated as an outside type. The value must be far higher than that of similar things in the outside world.
In order to verify this, Xu Xian didn't have time to go out and get a knife. After picking off a watermelon, he hit the middle of the watermelon hard with the palm of his hand, and the watermelon split into two pieces with a 'click' sound.
Breaking off a small piece of it, Xu Xian opened his mouth and bit it down.
After chewing twice, he swallowed the sweet watermelon juice down his throat. Then Xu Xian's eyes lit up. The watermelon cultivated in the Jinzhu Space was indeed extraordinary. He could guarantee that the taste alone was not available in the outside world.
!
Regardless of whether it is Qilin, Meidu, or 8424 varieties of watermelon, or even watermelons sold for hundreds of dollars per pound in the island country, the taste is not one-tenth as good as the watermelon in his hand.
Not only the taste, Xu Xian was also surprised to find that watermelon actually contains spiritual energy. Although it is not as rich as the spiritual energy in the spiritual fruit, it is quite incredible that a fruit can contain spiritual energy.
He believed that if he took a watermelon and exchanged it at a Lingtong Sihai store, he might be able to exchange it for a six-digit price.
No, if you exchange it at a high-end restaurant, such as Qin Hao's Jinling Top 100 Hotel, you will never get away with the six-digit price.
After pondering for a while, Xu Xian felt that it was better to enjoy these watermelons for himself for the time being. If they were used to cash out, there might be some trouble. As the old saying goes, ordinary people are not guilty, but those who possess the treasure are guilty.
At least until he is strong enough, these good things must be kept strictly confidential.
It took almost three minutes for the huge half of the watermelon to go into Xu Xian's belly. Even the rind of the watermelon was chewed by him until only the white edge was left.
Glancing at the group of monsters watching eagerly not far away, Xu Xian's face flashed with a look of pain.
He was reluctant to take out the spiritual fruit to reward these employees for the time being, but if he gritted his teeth, he could take out the watermelon to reward these employees.
Reaching out to Hu Hu, Xu Xian pointed at the watermelon and said, "Pick some watermelon and share it with everyone. Divide one watermelon into four parts and everyone can have it."
Hearing this, Hu Hu nodded happily: "Thank you, boss!"
"Okay, let's go."
After waving, Xu Xian left the Golden Pearl Space holding the remaining half of the watermelon.
"If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it first." Xiaofeng has been busy with him from morning to night for the past two days, so he has to give this guy some reward.
After all, if a big pie like the 'Top Spiritual Fruit' is used too much and never comes to fruition, Xiaofeng may stop buying it one day, so it would be much better to give it a little favor in the meantime.
Putting half a watermelon on the coffee table, Xu Xian glanced at Xiaofeng: "Here, the most delicious watermelon you have ever tasted."
"Are you kidding? I haven't tasted anything delicious like Master Feng, not to mention it's just a watermelon..."
Xiaofeng muttered, flew to the watermelon with curiosity, stretched out her neck and took a peck at the watermelon.
"It feels numb when pinched, so delicious!"
After venting his anger, Xiaofeng stopped talking. As his head moved up and down, the pulp of the watermelon decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xu Xian smiled and ignored it. After eating the body quenching fruit, he was now sticky and smelled strangely. He had to take a shower before practicing at night.
...
The time of the Tangshan phenomenon is getting closer and closer. In the past few days, Jinling City has seen an increase in the flow of people.
Not only people from several nearby cities rushed to Jinling after hearing the news, but there were also more monsters near Jinling City.
Not all of these monsters will actively attack humans, but every monster that enters the city and commits crimes has been registered by the Lingyuan Bureau.
In the Lingan Security Bureau office of Suning Center Building, Lu Yuan was sitting at his desk and looking through the case documents on the table.
He originally expected that as the Tangshan anomaly approached, the number of security incidents would only increase. However, he did not expect that the number of security incidents would decrease in the past few days.
As he looked through the documents on the table, Lu Yuan's expression became more and more shocked.
Without him, according to the archives, the Lingan Bureau and the Jinling Practitioners Association combined to solve nearly twenty security incidents every day, but on average, four or five security incidents every day were completed by the same person.
Not only did Lu Yuan know this person, but he also had a very deep impression. After all, he personally invited him to join the Ling'an Bureau and he was rejected. Later, when he asked Qiao Zisu to invite him, he was also rejected.
"You are so capable, why don't you want to join the Ling'an Bureau?"
Putting down the documents in his hands, Lu Yuan let out a long sigh, with a look of regret on his face.
Although their Lingan Security Bureau is still recruiting new personnel, the external world is changing day by day, security incidents are common, and manpower is still insufficient.
As he thought about it, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little irritated. Perhaps this was also related to the sultry weather in late May.
Just when Lu Yuan walked to the window and opened it, Qiao Zisu dragged his tired body back into the office.
He walked straight to his desk and sat down. He drank a few sips of water without caring about his appearance. Only then did Qiao Zisu regain his composure and said, "Lijun Lu, how is the situation now? It's only three days since the Tangshan phenomenon.
Now, do we still have a chance to get there?"
Lu Yuan was still in a good mood when he mentioned this matter. He pointed to the documents stacked on his desk and said to Qiao Zisu with a smile: "There should be opportunities. There are not enough security incidents that have not been dealt with now."
Baiqi, based on the handling efficiency of the past few days, when the day of Tangshan's abnormality occurs, we only need to arrange a few people to deal with it, and everyone else will go to Tangshan."
"real?!"
Hearing what Lu Yuan said, Qiao Zisu's fatigue seemed to have disappeared, and her whole person seemed extremely excited.
"of course it's true."
As he said that, Lu Yuan's expression became a little weird: "Xu Xian doesn't know what's going on. Although the security incident we sent to the Cultivators Association is not one where the target is too powerful, there are always problems that are either difficult or time-consuming.
The trouble is, he has been able to complete four or five tasks every day these days. Could it be that his strength has improved recently?"
"Isn't that true?"
Qiao Zisu said with some disbelief: "I remember that when he first came back from Lianhua Mountain, his strength was definitely not as good as mine. A few days ago, he was already at the same level as me. Now I am still almost two stars away from the B level."
With the spiritual energy around the Spirit-nurturing Fruit, he won’t be able to reach the B level so quickly, right?”
"Who knows, the recovery of spiritual energy now represents infinite possibilities. Everyone may encounter their own opportunities. It's a pity that this kid just doesn't want to join our Ling'an Bureau..."
Lu Yuan was sighing when his cell phone on his desk suddenly rang, so he stopped talking and walked aside to pick up the phone.
"Hey, what's going on?"
"What?! Is it true? Are you sure the news is true?"
"Okay, I get it."
...
After finishing their day trip, Xu Xian and Xiaofeng returned home through the night.
As he completed more and more tasks, his experience became richer, and Xiaofeng's ability to "locate" the target became more and more proficient. The cooperation of one person and one bird became more and more proficient. Now Xu Xian can complete four or five tasks every day.
The mission of a practitioners association.
Of course, this is also related to the improvement of his actual combat ability. Those monsters that were not too strong in the first place can barely last three seconds in his hands.
After several consecutive days of tasks, Xu Xian already has 290 points in his association account.
This made him feel that it was not difficult to earn points, it was just a matter of spending more time.
290 points is almost 2.9 million in funds. Looking at his personal information, Xu Xian smiled broadly. As long as he was given another ten days or so, he could pay back the thousand points he owed Qin Baiqiang.
When he first borrowed it, he felt that one thousand points was out of reach and he didn't know how long it would take to pay it back. However, now he feels extremely relaxed.
After repaying Qin Baiqiang's points, the subsequent points income will be his own income.
Xu Xian took a fancy to the many good things newly launched in the points mall. If he hadn't wanted to prioritize paying off his debts, he might have started squandering his points long ago.
For example, the five hemostatic powders he redeemed earlier were so effective that there was no need to go to the hospital for trauma. After one hemostatic powder, the wound would scab off in a few days and return to its original state.
During a mission the day before yesterday, Xu Xian was unintentionally bruised by a demonic cow that seemed to be crazy. In order to test the effect of Zhixue Powder, he took one.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Xian realized how effective Zhixue Powder was, and it even gave him the idea of hoarding as much as possible.
"Melon! Melon! Melon! Come on, please give me some watermelon. It's too hot today. I will die of heat if I don't eat a piece of watermelon."
After landing on the sofa, Xiaofeng pretended to be exaggerated and kept fanning the wind with her wings, but she tilted her head and looked at Xu Xian, her eyes full of expectation.
"You're really wasting such good acting skills if you don't act."
Xu Xian rolled his eyes at Xiaofeng, but still took out a watermelon from the space.
The temperature has been getting higher and higher in the past two days, especially in the evening, the air is obviously a lot hotter.
Not only Xiaofeng, Xu Xian is also obsessed with eating watermelon every day to relieve the heat.
However, Xu Xian was pleasantly surprised to discover that although the temperature outside was increasing day by day, there was no change at all in the Jinzhu Space and it was always within a very comfortable range.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot more monsters in the space, which seemed a bit noisy, Xu Xian would have slept in the Jinzhu Space even if he wanted to sleep.
After sharing a whole watermelon with Xiaofeng, Xu Xian immediately entered the Jinzhu space.
In the past few days, he made effective use of all his time. He went out to 'practice' during the day and practiced 'theory' until late at night.
This situation immediately reminded Xu Xian of his high school days. After classes during the day, he had to study late at night.
However, learning is something that only takes a long time to bear fruit, but cultivation is different. Over the past few days, he can clearly feel that his strength has improved a lot.
Maybe before the Tangshan phenomenon comes, there will be a chance to work hard to upgrade to the first level!
