The moon was dark and the wind was high, in the backyard of Baozhai Pavilion, a woman was holding a hoe in her hand by the faint light, panting from exhaustion.
"It's not that I haven't tried to save you. I burned three sticks of incense! I paid for the road trip, and I've done my best! You're seeking your own death, don't blame me!" Xue Miaomiao murmured to herself while digging the soil.
road.
She really felt that she was extremely unlucky. She thought she had a big customer coming, but she didn't expect that the person died before the money was paid. It was so unlucky.
After digging the hole, Xue Miaomiao looked at Shen Ming, who was motionless and covered in blood, with a slight hesitation.
Just when Xue Miaomiao made up her mind and dragged Shen Ming's hands, she was about to push Shen Ming into the pit and bury her.
The body that had died long ago suddenly opened its eyes.
When their eyes met, the air suddenly became terrifyingly quiet!
"What are you doing?" Shen Ming suddenly said.
"Ghost!" Xue Miaomiao was startled again. She suddenly let go of her hand, picked up the hoe next to her and was about to smash it at Shen Ming's head.
Shen Ming was also startled and hurriedly dodged the fatal blow. He tore himself into a ghost gate and walked around, but the King of Darkness couldn't leave him alone. If he was killed with a hoe on his back, how could he be justified?
"Girl, I'm not dead!" Shen Ming quickly got up to prevent the other party from coming with another hoe.
Xue Miaomiao grabbed the hoe and stepped back, her eyes filled with fear, and she said tremblingly: "Are you... a human or a ghost?"
"A living person! I'm not dead!" Shen Ming explained with a wry smile, what is this?
Shen Ming never imagined that one day he would prove to others: I am a human being!
"I don't believe it. You've obviously died. What's going on?" Xue Miaomiao huddled in the corner. Compared with her charming posture when they first met, she was just a frightened girl at this moment.
Shen Ming scratched his head desperately and looked at his right hand. The space bracelet had been taken away, presumably by Xue Miaomiao. It seemed that Shen Ming really had to prove that he was a human being.
Shen Ming, who really had no other choice, strode forward, pulled Xue Miaomiao up, and put her head against his chest.
"Ah! Don't kill me, I didn't mean to harm you!" Xue Miaomiao was so frightened that she couldn't even hold the hoe steady. She raised her hands tremblingly, but she didn't dare to resist.
"Quiet! Listen to my heartbeat, I'm a human being! I'm not dead yet!" Shen Ming's tone was very domineering, mainly because he really didn't have much patience anymore.
Xue Miaomiao was also startled by Shen Ming's sudden domineering behavior. She became quiet and finally heard Shen Ming's heartbeat.
Shen Ming's heartbeat was majestic and powerful, hitting Xue Miaomiao's eardrums. Xue Miaomiao was stunned. This was the first time she had made such an intimate move with a man.
In the past, most of the men who wanted to take advantage of her were deceived and lost their money. No one has ever been able to kiss her happily.
"Do you believe it? Dead people don't have heartbeats!" Shen Ming pushed Xue Miaomiao away, who was still stunned, and couldn't help but give the other party a roll of his eyes.
"Give me back my space bracelet!"
"Uh-oh!" Xue Miaomiao obediently took out the space bracelet from her arms and handed it to Shen Ming.
Shen Ming took the bracelet and could still feel the residual temperature on the bracelet, as well as the slightest trace of the girl's body fragrance. Shen Ming sniffed it subconsciously, which made Xue Miaomiao blush. It was just that Shen Ming was in the dark.
Didn't notice this.
…
In the middle of the night, the entire inner street of Sanli Street was dark at the moment, and there was no one around. If anyone came at this time, they would probably be scared to death.
In Baozhai Pavilion, a red light lit up Xue Miaomiao's boudoir.
"Did you know that I went to the dark street?" Shen Ming felt a little incredible. This woman is just an ordinary person. She would always know such a thing?
"Of course, the purpose of Sanli Street is to protect this Huangquan tree. I didn't expect that you would pay the road money that no one has paid for so many years. You are really a disaster!" Xue Miaomiao changed her mind again at this moment.
She had a charming look, crossed her legs, and deliberately exposed her gray hair. She didn't know if she was trying to seduce Shen Ming.
Shen Ming tried his best to look away. This woman had very complicated thoughts. When she was scared just now, she couldn't tell that she was just pretending, but now she looked like a promiscuous woman. She didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in the gourd.
"Okay, I got it." Shen Ming did not continue to ask further. It was meaningless to know more. He would never pay the money for the road a second time.
Shen Ming now finally understands why the inner street of Sanli Street exists today.
In this magical city, land is at a premium, so there must be a reason why a declining commercial street has been preserved to this day. And although the inner street of Sanli Street was not geographically suitable at the time, almost all the gold-lettered signboards were in the inner street. In this kind of
The sudden decline may be related to that strange dead tree.
Shen Ming didn't want to go into details about what happened here, but he regretted coming to such a ghost place, and even secretly cursed Zhao Manyan for being a scammer.
The system is asleep, wasting an opportunity to change the name of a blank business card. You must know that although there are three opportunities to change the name of a blank business card, each time the name is changed, it will take 100 years to cool down!
100 years! How many 100 years can Shen Ming live? Besides, if Shen Ming lives to be 100 years old and doesn't die, I'm afraid he won't need this blank business card.
Shen Ming's heart is bleeding. This loss can be said to be the biggest in history!
"Huangquanshu hasn't collected road money for many years. How did you... do it? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought that the dead man had been lying to me!" Xue Miaomiao looked at Shen Ming curiously.
People are always very curious about unknown things.
The dark street has always been just a legend in Sanli Street. Now that we are facing a person who has entered the dark street and successfully survived, how can we not find out more about it.
That’s the legendary dark street! You can buy everything you want!
"You want to go in?" Shen Ming raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xue Miaomiao strangely.
To be honest, Shen Ming didn't know how he paid the road money inexplicably. However, it was very likely that his finger was scratched by the tree and the blood was absorbed. This may be the so-called road money.
"If you are really at the end of your rope, you can give it a try! Maybe you can put yourself to death and survive..." Xue Miaomiao shook the cattail leaf fan and said with a smile while looking at the flickering candlelight.
"Let's not talk about this...this is what you want. The price...I'll give you a 20% discount! Of course, we stores should be responsible for the trouble Sanli Street has caused you. Please forgive me, boss!"
Xue Miaomiao said as she pushed the two boxes on the table to Shen Ming.
"To add, the bottle containing the blood of the wild beast is not very valuable. But the vessels required for the warrior-level essence are not cheap... Just think that I am lending it to you. If you are willing to return it, return it after you use it.
If you don't want to... just think of it as compensation from Sanli Street." Xue Miaomiao waved her hand, seemingly not taking this seriously.
However, Xue Miaomiao looks calm and calm on the surface, but in fact, she is bleeding in her heart. A vessel that can store essence can fetch a very high price wherever it is taken!
But Xue Miaomiao almost buried Shen Ming, and since Shen Ming did have an accident on his own land, the incident could only be blamed on Xue Miaomiao.
Shen Ming couldn't help but take another look at the woman in front of him. At first glance, anyone would think that she was a promiscuous woman, a casual person. But she was really very principled in doing things, at least she abided by the rules handed down from her ancestors. Maybe her words
How dismissive he was, and he never used honorifics when addressing his late father, but deep down in his heart, he should have unconsciously recognized it, right?
And her current appearance may be just a... last resort disguise.
Shen Ming felt a sigh of relief when he thought of this, the blood of a wild beast, a warrior-level essence, and a container to store the essence. How difficult it is for a woman who is not a magician to guard such a large family fortune.
.
"I will come often in the future, thank you!" Shen Ming did not spend a lot of money on the beauty, and even carefully checked whether the blood of the wild beast and the warrior-level essence were real.
Shen Ming sympathizes with Xue Miaomiao, but he is definitely not stupid.
After making sure that there was nothing wrong with the things, Shen Ming paid the money and left Baozhai Pavilion at night without staying any longer.
Before leaving, I also borrowed Xue Miaomiao's bathroom.
There was nothing I could do. Shen Ming's whole body was covered in blood. It was really scary. If someone saw him, he would probably panic.
It's strange to say that the bleeding from the seven orifices was obviously a serious injury, but Shen Ming didn't feel any weak except for feeling a little groggy.
Thinking of this, Shen Ming really wanted to give the system a thumbs up! Finally a personal matter was done!
…
…
"Master, do you really not think of a turtle as a turtle? No matter how hard I hold my breath, I will still feel cold if you continue to play with me like this!"
The little turtle was finally released again by Shen Ming, panting heavily and greedily breathing in the fresh air.
"Is it my fault? I haven't reached the intermediate level in the summoning system yet, so I can't sign a contract with you. I can only find a place for you to settle down first. Besides, I may not choose you even if I reach the intermediate level!" Shen Ming said nonchalantly.
Shen Ming still has to choose the contracted beast carefully. If the summoned beast is his godson, then the contracted beast is his biological son. If the little turtle really has no ability and can only brag! Shen Ming will probably be pissed to death by this guy.
.
"Master, don't stop ... The turtle is big, and that's the same, give me two bottles of blood of the beast, and the real dragon will do it for you!" The little turtle patted his chest and said confidently
.
"Oh? Really?" Shen Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at the little turtle with a wicked smile.
"Boom"
"Stop grabbing one or two bottles, there are three bottles here! Please start your show!"
