The girl looked at Li Xiu with a slightly excited expression, her eyes full of anticipation and excitement.
Hearing the girl's question, Li Xiu scratched his head. He thought the girl looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who she was.
When the girl saw Li Xiu like this, she knew that Li Xiu might not really remember her. She felt a little disappointed, but then she thought about it, Li Xiu had only met her once, and she couldn't remember him.
Normal.
"Mr. Li, do you remember a girl you saved a few years ago?"
The girl recalled the past and excitedly grabbed Li Xiu's hand. Li Xiu didn't know how to react to the girl's enthusiasm.
"I was arrested by those gangsters before. They threatened me and asked me to pretend to be pitiful and rob pedestrians on the road. At first, I thought I was definitely dead or would be ruined by them even if I didn't die. Who knew that you came back to save me in the end?
I…"
When the girl talked about being excited, some tears flashed in her eyes. She never wanted to experience the despair she felt back then. If it weren't for Li Xiu, she would probably be in doom and gloom in the future.
If you fall into the hands of those gangsters, you will either be played by them or die.
After she was caught, the first person she deceived was Li Xiu. Who knew that Li Xiu left without looking back?
There was a trace of despair. If Li Xiu left like this, the consequences for her could be imagined.
In the end, Li Xiu came back and killed the gangsters, and then she had a chance to escape back home...
When she returned home, she cherished life even more. She opened a dessert shop at home and became famous. Finally, she raised funds to open another one here in the ancient city. Without Li Xiu, how could she dare to imagine such a life?
Countless times in the dead of night, she would think of Li Xiu's figure when he saved her. Countless times, she would tell herself that if she met Li Xiu again, she would definitely thank him in person.
She looked at the real Li Xiu or Li Xiu's warm palm in front of her, and her wish finally came true.
"Oh, I seem to remember..."
After Li Xiu looked at the girl's description, he took another look at her face. He remembered that he was going to the restricted area to kill monsters. On the way, he met a girl and was threatened by a robber to cheat him. In the end, he couldn't stand it anymore and killed her easily.
He also remembered that it was the same day he conquered the leopard.
"What a coincidence..."
Li Xiu not only lamented that the world is too small, but he also encountered passers-by who had only met him once.
"Yes, what a coincidence. If it hadn't been for you that day, sir..."
The girl's voice choked up as she spoke.
Seeing the girl's appearance, the passers-by who had not understood the situation thought that Li Xiu had bullied the girl and made the girl so sad. They were filled with indignation and accused Li Xiu.
"What's going on with you young man? Why are you bullying girls? It's unethical for you to do this..."
An aunt stood up and said, "I want to argue with you."
The sister next to her saw that this matter was a bit big. She hurriedly explained: "No, this gentleman is my sister's savior. She was just a little excited when she saw him. There was a misunderstanding..."
"Sister, why don't you invite your husband to come into the store and have a talk..."
The girl nodded when she heard this, and then looked at Li Xiu hopefully.
I was a little helpless, so I nodded and what else could I do if I didn't go in? I haven't bought any snacks yet, and I've been queuing for so long.
The girl immediately became happy when she saw Li Xiu nodding in agreement.
While she called Li Xiu in, she told the customers outside the door: "I'm sorry, everyone, the store is closed today, please come back tomorrow..."
The customers who had not bought the pastries were a little dissatisfied when they heard this. After all, they had been waiting in line for so long. At this time, my sister came forward.
"Everyone has a big happy event at home today. Please understand that all the desserts in the store will be discounted at 20% tomorrow. Please come and support me..."
When everyone heard that there was a 20% discount on desserts tomorrow, they all agreed. After all, this dessert shop is delicious, but the price is a bit expensive, and they have never had discounts.
After all the customers dispersed, the elder sister came to the store with her younger sister. She looked at Li Xiu quietly. A few years ago, her younger sister was kidnapped by gangsters, and she was also very worried. Only when she finally returned home safe and sound did she know that there was a distinguished person.
Help, when she saw it today, she didn't expect Li Xiu to be so young.
"I really thanked you back then. If it weren't for you, there's no telling what my sister would have been like..."
Li Xiu looked at the two sisters and just nodded lightly.
"With a little effort..."
"My benefactor, is there anything I can do to help you? I must repay your life-saving grace, otherwise I will feel uneasy about my conscience..."
The girl said to Li Xiu solemnly that for her, Li Xiu was not only a lifesaver, but also her hope in despair, saving her from being ruined and ending in a life worse than death.
"Repay? No need..."
Li Xiu, who had just finished saying this, saw the disappointed look on the girl's face and changed the topic and said again.
"But can you give me some snacks and desserts? I have two daughters at home, and they like snacks very much..."
When Li Xiu said that, the girl's eyes lit up instantly, because what she is best at is making snacks.
"Okay, how much do you want...How about I pack up everything in the store for you and take it back..."
The younger sister's eyes were bright and she was staring straight at Li Xiu. After Li Xiu heard what the girl said, he waved his hand. He brought so many snacks home. He would have to eat them until the year of the monkey, and snacks and desserts were also available.
The shelf life is not long and you may not be able to finish it if it goes bad.
"No, no, I just want a few things..."
When my sister heard what Li Xiu said, she still didn't give up. After all, Li Xiu's kindness to her could not be repaid with just a few bags of snacks and desserts.
"How about you tell me the address of your home, and I will send some snacks and desserts to your home every once in a while. This way the two little girls will be happy... and you don't have to run over here so often..."
Li Xiu wanted to refuse, but then he thought about it, Li Lan'er really likes desserts, and it would be troublesome to come here every once in a while to buy snacks. What's more, he has to go into seclusion for practice recently. In order to ensure Li Lan'er's supply of snacks,
He nodded and agreed.
Seeing that Li Xiu agreed, the girl jumped over to pack desserts and snacks. Li Xiu watched him pack more and more. If he continued packing like this, there would probably be more snacks and desserts in the house.
After she finished packing, she quickly stopped her.
"That's enough, that's enough..."
When Li Xiu walked out of the dessert shop, he finally carried several large bags full of snacks and desserts with both hands. He was helpless because the girl and her sister forced them on him.
Li Xiu thought in his heart that Li Lan'er might be so happy that he would jump up when he saw these bags of snacks.
Then he spread his wings and returned to the top of the snow-capped mountains. As expected, when Li Laner saw the large bags of desserts and snacks in his hands, his eyes almost shone. Holding those large bags of snacks, he returned to the room with satisfaction.
.
Now Li Xiu can finally practice in seclusion. After all, he has 89,000 energy points in his hand. Improving his strength is the most important thing now.
Li Xiu sat quietly in the room, looking at the 89,000 energy points displayed on the system, and asked the system.
"How many energy points are needed to ascend to the realm?"
"Ding...150,000..."
Upon hearing this number, Li Xiu wondered if he had heard it wrong, which made him no longer confident, so he asked the system again.
"How many?!"
"Ding...150,000..."
Li Xiu jumped up instantly when he heard this number.
"One hundred and fifty thousand...why don't you go and grab it! It only costs 10,000 to advance to the first level of the elemental realm. Why do you pay so many times for the domain level..."
Li Xiu seriously doubted this system and the lion opened his mouth.
I originally thought that his 89,000 power points would be enough to upgrade his domain, but who knew that it would only be enough to upgrade half of it.
"Ding... The system settings require a total of 150,000 ability points to upgrade the domain realm..."
Li Xiu immediately stopped talking after hearing this. He had 150,000 power points. Where could he find so many power points now? He had collected all the elemental power that Yifeng Platform could collect, and the total was only 89,000.
Thousands of special abilities.
Speaking of treasures, there are quite a few treasures of heaven and earth in his space, but he doesn't recycle these systems, so he only has a lot of treasures but can't use them hard.
With his current tenth-level elemental strength, it would be no problem to save his life when encountering the self-proclaimed army, but it would be a bit unrealistic if he wanted to save the northern territory.
The system seemed to see Li Xiu's hesitation and automatically popped up an interface box.
"Ding... There are two steps to upgrade the realm. One is to comprehend the realm, and the other is to break through to the realm. It takes 50,000 power points to comprehend the realm, and 100,000 power points to break through to the realm..."
When Li Xiu heard what the system said, he rolled his eyes. Although it was divided into two steps, it still couldn't cover up the system's killing behavior.
But he had no choice. If he didn't improve his strength as soon as possible, he was afraid that one day his troops would come over and a big war would be unavoidable.
"Understanding the realm..."
"Do you want to spend 50,000 power points to understand the realm..."
"yes…"
Li Xiu looked at the system interface and suddenly lost 50,000 yuan. He felt a physical pain in the power point.
However, this bit of thought was completely wiped out by the huge energy that hit him instantly, and then he concentrated on being immersed in this huge energy.
…
During the period when Li Xiu was in seclusion, the Northern Territory was recuperating and recuperating peacefully. With the gift of a few genius treasures given by Bixiu, many people with powers from other places rushed to the Northern Territory, but most of them were weak and weak.
The superpowers have awakened their superpowers, but there are not many training resources for them to practice.
Su Changhong has never had a good day's rest since he became the generalissimo of the Northern Territory. After all, the Northern Territory has too many things to do now, not only the influx of foreign superpowers, but also identity verification, and
New soldiers are pouring in, and he needs to worry about these.
Although Wang Hai, a ninth-level elemental master, could get things done with twice the result with half the effort, there were too many things that required him to do it himself.
At this time, he was attracted by a report on the desktop. It said that a businessman from Wangchuan had requested to come to the northern border to trade.
"What kind of place is Wangchuan?"
Su Changhong asked the deputy.
"At the easternmost edge of our country..."
The deputy thought about the word Wangchuan for a moment, and then said to Su Changhong.
Su Changhong stared at why Wangchuan, the northernmost businessman in the country, came all the way to the north to do trade, and why he chose to come when the north was weak after the war.
The deputy heard Su Changhong's inquiry and glanced at the report on the table curiously. He said, "Maybe he wants to make war fortune. Since our victory, more and more people have come to do business..."
After all, the North is now waiting for revival, and some bold businessmen are directly targeting this period and choosing to come to the North for development. Although this gives Su Changhong a reason, he still feels a bit suspicious.
"You should pay more attention to this person to see if he is a spy of the Self-Declared Army...or if he has some purpose..."
The deputy glanced at the photo on the report and nodded. Although the number of people is tight now, and most of them are novices, things like spies are really harmful to the northern border, so they still have to spare as much manpower as possible to prevent and control them. Although
The photo looks like this person is polite and wearing a pair of glasses, but people should not be judged by their appearance.
After Su Changhong gave the report to his deputy, he frowned when he saw another person's report underneath the report.
This person's information does not seem to be serious, but the person in the photo has white hair and looks particularly elegant, and the reason why he applied to come to the Northern Territory is just for tourism.
"I really don't know what to say. This man looks like a young man from a rich family. The northern border looks like it did after the war. There is no scenery left to see..."
Su Changhong just said something long-winded, put down the report, and turned around to do other things.
The man with glasses in the photo has already lived in a hotel in the North. Now the North has become more and more strict with people entering and exiting. If you want to come to the North, you need to submit an application, explaining the reason and where you came from. The man with glasses is helpless.
He shook his head, but he also expressed his understanding of this situation. After all, the northern border had just experienced a war, and they could no longer tolerate another war.
The bespectacled man looked at the people in the northern border coming and going under the floor-to-ceiling windows, and recalled the time he had met Li Xiu before. He did not expect that he would follow Li Xiu to this remote northern border.
"Li Xiu, what kind of person are you..."
He really couldn't figure out what kind of person he was who could give a top-grade healing elixir as a gift to a little girl casually.
In this era where profit is the top priority, you can still be so cool.
"I hope that the treasures of heaven and earth in your hands...will make my trip worthwhile..."
