After washing up, Lin Ming glanced at Bai Ye who was still talking nonsense in the living room, impatiently picked up the cup on the table and threw it directly at his face.
Unfortunately, the cup did not complete its mission and was directly shattered by a burst of energy while it was in the air.
Bai Ye muttered.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore. What are you doing?"
"You really can't take any jokes."
"Thankfully I brought you something good today!"
Bai Ye said, digging and digging from his pocket, and reluctantly took out a milky white fruit.
"This is the thank you gift I prepared for you. Dragon fruit can strengthen your body if you eat it."
"But it's very potent. With your current level, you can only take half a pill at most."
"You can save the rest or make it into dried fruit and fruit wine to share with your family. For ordinary people, just a little bit is enough to extend their lives."
Bai Ye said, handing it to Lin Ming with a look of pain.
Lin Ming looked at his expression and felt very unhappy. He snatched the milky white fruit from his hand and tapped the system in his mind to let it detect the so-called dragon fruit.
[Dragon fruit, after testing, is a special fruit that only grows on Long Island on earth. After taking it, it can achieve the effect of strengthening the body and exercising. 】
[The effect is excellent. It is not recommended for ordinary people to absorb it directly. It is recommended to undergo secondary processing before absorption. 】
[Star rating: three and a half stars.]
After Lin Ming listened to the system evaluation in his mind, he smiled at Bai Ye.
It was indeed a good thing, so he accepted it without hesitation.
"Do you still have this thing?"
"If you have any, give me a few more."
Bai Ye was so angry that he stood up from the bench, his eyelids twitching.
"Do you know how precious dragon fruit is? This one was given to me by the king when I won the island competition last year!"
"I have never seen any of the other people on the island, let alone any. I advise you not to push yourself too far."
Lin Ming raised his eyebrows.
"It's so awesome, okay, then I'll reluctantly accept it."
"How do you eat this?"
Lin Ming took the fruit and looked at it carefully.
In addition to the smooth and shiny skin and a special fragrance, it looks no different from ordinary fruits.
Bai Ye said reluctantly.
"You can only eat half a pill now. If you eat too much, your body will explode and die. You can cut it open now."
"It doesn't have a core, so you can just cut it directly, and you don't have to worry about uneven cuts."
"If you want to give it to others, it's best to dilute it with fine wine."
After Bai Ye finished speaking, Lin Ming nodded thoughtfully.
"Okay, I get it."
"Do you have anything else to say? I'll eat it now."
Lin Ming tossed the fruit in his hand up and down. Bai Ye felt uncomfortable looking at it, so he simply said nothing.
"It's the first time you eat dragon fruit. Its body-building effect will be relatively strong, and your meridians may burst. You won't die, but it's a bit ugly. Just prepare the bath water."
Lin Ming took the small fruit and carefully cut it into equal parts with a knife.
After the fruit is cut open, the flesh inside also shows a moon-white luster, as if it is shining faintly.
Previously, it was tightly sealed by the peel, and the fruity aroma suddenly leaked out, and the whole room was filled with an intoxicating fragrance.
Lin Ming took a deep breath and felt that his limbs were instantly filled with strength.
He threw the other half of the fruit into the system's system backpack and kept it, planning to make it into wine himself for his wife and family when he was free.
And he himself threw the other half of the fruit directly into his mouth.
It was strange to say that the fruit was not small, but when he threw it into his mouth, it felt like it melted in his mouth, as if it turned into a warm current, rushing directly from his throat into his internal organs.
The impact was mild at first, but as time went by, the impact became more and more violent, as if an uncontrollable and powerful force traveled through his body's meridians.
Lin Ming cursed Bai Ye in his heart for being dishonest.
What does it mean to be a little ugly?
It feels like his face should be twisted in pain now.
The internal organs and meridians of the five internal organs feel broken every inch, as if they are repairing themselves, usually torn and healed. This kind of pain is unbearable for ordinary people.
Lin Ming gritted his teeth to suppress his cry.
In order to relieve the pain in the body, I began to unconsciously use the breathing method.
call--
suck--
At first, my breathing was messy due to pain, but I gradually adjusted to a rhythm.
Until later, the rhythm of his breathing became lighter and gentler.
Small drops of blood seeped out from his skin, like sweat from a hot day, soaking into the surface of his skin one by one.
After a while, the blood coagulated on his surface, forming a layer of plasma.
Lin Ming has become a person wrapped in blood, but he himself has no idea about it.
With the help of dragon fruit and the method of breathing, I gradually entered a somewhat mysterious state.
In this situation, he seemed to have witnessed the practice of Wu Qin Xi again, and he had different thoughts in his mind.
The sources of power between heaven and earth gathered together, and the branches and leaves in the small courtyard were constantly shaking and making rustling sounds.
Xie Jianjia realized something was wrong, frowned when she saw Lin Ming, and murmured quietly.
"Why are you so anxious to break through?"
While talking, he threw out his three copper coins and shot them in three directions of the small courtyard.
Then he took out a small green sword from his waist, slit his wrist, which was stained with blood, and drew invisible runes on the ground while still mumbling words.
After a while, a simple talisman was formed in a row in the small courtyard, and the branches and leaves in the courtyard that were shaking out of shape also returned to calm.
Xie Jianjia wiped the sweat from her forehead and complained.
"Huh! It took me a lot of effort to cover up the movement here. I have to give Lin Ming a hard blow next time."
…
The blond girl who was kneeling in front of the statue of the goddess suddenly pulled off the white cloth covering her eyes.
The tip of her nose quivered slightly, and two small sharp tiger teeth slowly poked out of the corners of her lips.
"The power of those to the east!"
…
In the Holy See, a young man looked at the screen in his hand excitedly.
"There's a clue!"
"The message the elder released earlier has been responded to. It's very close. Let's get there quickly."
"If the message is responded to, it means that the person is injured. We should be able to catch the little mouse now."
…
In Lin Ming's room.
A breeze blew slowly by, and the man sitting motionless on the bed suddenly had a crack in the blood scab on his body. When the wind blew, there was even a slight movement.
Click click click...
Click click click...
There were more and more sounds, and the gap became wider and wider, and a slender white hand poked out from the black and red blood scab...
