Chapter 17: Dirty Crystal
Zhang Li said weakly: "It's the patrol team here.
"Fuck! The evil spirit came right after he died. How timely." Wu Tao gritted his teeth, spit out a mouthful of blood, endured the pain and quickly got up, picked up the black crystal on the ground, took off his shoes, and hid it in his shoes.
After putting on his shoes and making sure they didn't hurt his feet, he returned to his original position and lay down. Seeing Zhang Li about to get up, he quickly said: "Don't get up, lie down, pretend to be unconscious, and wait until I tell you to get up again."
Zhang Li didn't know why, but she still did as he said, closing her eyes and pretending to be unconscious.
Wu Tao also immediately closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious.
The sound of footsteps appeared in my ears.
The patrol has arrived.
The team of seven, wearing mysterious clothes and magic swords hanging on their waists, arrived and first saw Wu Tao and Zhang Li lying on the ground. However, they did not care about Zhang Li's life or death first, but inspected the scene.
"There are remnants of evil spirits, and there are more than one. No wonder it can eliminate evil spirits... Ji Yun, use the evil evil mirror to take a photo of the scene to ensure that the evil spirits are completely gone." After the inspection, the captain of this patrol team inspected one of them. said a patrol member.
A member of the patrol named Ji Yun immediately took out a bronze mirror from his arms, filled it with spiritual energy, and the mirror emitted light. After the cylindrical light illuminated the entire room, he respectfully said to the captain: "Captain, it's ready. It’s certain that the evil spirits are gone.”
The captain nodded and then said: "Go and see if those two people are dead?"
Ji Yun put away the evil-dispelling mirror and walked towards Wu Tao and Zhang Li.
Hearing the footsteps, Wu Tao coughed suddenly, coughed out a mouthful of blood foam, struggled to get up, and murmured: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, Friend Daoist Zhang..." He crawled towards Zhang Li in a panic, and patted Zhang Li's cheek gently: " Fellow Daoist Zhang, please don’t die!”
Zhang Li slowly opened her eyes and said weakly: "Fellow Daoist Li, are we still alive?"
"Still alive, still alive..." Wu Tao laughed and coughed.
Ji Yun stopped when Wu Tao coughed. Seeing that the two people didn't seem to notice them, he turned back to the captain and reported: "Captain, these two people are still alive."
The captain was silent for a moment, looked at Ji Yun for a long time, and then said: "I can see it."
After hearing the conversation between the two, Wu Tao and Zhang Li seemed to have just noticed someone. They looked over to them. After seeing their clothes clearly, they saluted with sincerity and said: "I have met you gentlemen, we..."
"No hurry..." The captain came over, squatted in front of Wu Tao and Zhang Li, stretched out his hand and said to Ji Yun: "Ji Yun, bring me the evil-exorcism mirror."
After receiving the evil-exorcism mirror, the captain activated the evil-exorcism mirror and took a photo of the two of them from body to toe before saying, "Okay, no evil spirit has entered your body. Congratulations to both of you for surviving."
"Thank you!" Wu Tao said with cupped hands.
Next, the patrol asked about the battle process, and Wu Tao told everything honestly, except for the black crystal. After asking, the patrol team didn't say much, called it a day and left.
After the patrol left, Wu Tao took a look around and saw that the door leaf had fallen off. Where could he stay at this late night...
Moreover, both he and Zhang Li were injured.
Seeing this, Zhang Li suggested: "Fellow Daoist Li, come to my place and spend the night together!"
…
Under the bright lights, Zhang Li was helping Wu Tao bandage his right hand. His right hand activated the Evil-Breaking Talisman and burned off the skin. It looked bloody and bloody, which was extremely terrifying.
Zhang Li fiddled with the gauze, glanced at Wu Tao, and then said slowly: "Fellow Daoist Li, it turns out that you have already gotten rid of the evil spirit... If it weren't for the patrol team using the evil mirror to take a look, I wouldn't have come back to my senses. "
Wu Tao said: "What happened a few days ago."
After the bandage was finished, the two sat on the chair. Wu Tao took out the black crystal from his shoe and looked at it under the light. The black crystal was as pure as ink and emitted a dark light.
Zhang Li asked curiously: "Fellow Daoist Li, what is this?"
Wu Tao explained: "This is filthy crystal. It is condensed in Xie Sui's body. It is a high-quality material for refining magical weapons. I heard that adding filthy crystals to the magical weapon refined will have the effect of filth on the magical weapon."
"so smart?"
"Well, in order to buy the Evil-Breaking Talisman, you and I filled in all our net worth. This filthy crystal can give us back our money. It's the kind of book that makes a lot of money. Fortunately, the patrol team was a step slow, otherwise this filthy crystal, how could we get it back? It's our turn."
As a weapon refiner, Wu Tao will be very useful in the long run when he is strong enough to refine the dirty crystal magic weapon.
But this dirty crystal is not entirely his, but also part of Zhang Li's.
"When we recover from our injuries, we will sell this filthy crystal, and we will divide the accounts among the spiritual stones." Wu Tao said to Zhang Li.
"Okay!" Zhang Li had no objection.
"The evil spirit has been eliminated. Fellow Daoist Zhang, let's all take a rest. We are too tired." After Wu Tao said that, he got up and took a quilt from Zhang Li's bed, spread it on the ground, and got ready to sleep.
Zhang Li said: "Fellow Daoist Li, the ground is cold, why not sleep on the bed!"
Just when Wu Tao was about to lie down, when he saw what she said, he felt that he still had to respect the woman's will, so he said, "Okay!"
After a while.
Zhang Li was lying on the quilt on the floor, listening to Wu Tao's even breathing on the bed. She regretted how she had just said those words. Besides, did I mean that? I mean, two people can sleep in the bed…
Suddenly, she heard the sound of getting up. When she looked around, she saw Wu Tao getting up, walking half-crouched next to him and smiling: "I just teased you, go and sleep on the bed!"
"You..." Zhang Li was furious. She got up and punched Wu Tao lightly. Wu Tao screamed in pain. She said in a panic: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you were seriously injured... You said you are hateful, you know what I mean..."
Wu Tao took a breath and said: "I know what you mean, but I'm afraid I can't help it. We are both seriously injured and it's not suitable for overwork..."
Zhang Li was satisfied and said: "You are still a human being..."
After that, she ignored Wu Tao and went to bed.
The next day.
They both got up very late.
After getting up, they first practiced qigong to heal their injuries, and then ate spiritual rice. Wu Tao went back to repair the door.
After the door was repaired, Zhang Li came over with a folded robe and said, "Daoyou Li, I have removed the divine imprint on your robe and will return it to you."
Wu Tao took a look at the robe and thought of the life and death they had gone through together last night, so he said, "I'll give it to you!"
Zhang Li shook her head and said, "Daoyou Li underestimated me. I won't accept your benefits for nothing. Besides, I need a robe, I can earn spirit stones to buy it myself."
What a complicated person, but worthy of respect... Wu Tao immediately took the robe and apologized sincerely, "Daoyou Zhang, I misunderstood you, I apologize."
Zhang Li smiled.
Five days later.
Wu Tao and Zhang Li's injuries were healed.
It was time to sell the dirty crystal.
Since the evil spirit was removed, the price of the evil-breaking talisman fell rapidly. In just one day, it returned to the original price of 20 low-grade spirit stones. Those who bought the evil-breaking talisman and wanted to sell it were completely dumbfounded.
Wu Tao came to the refining material shop where he usually bought goods and found the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper's surname was Yu, and he was very familiar with Wu Tao. Seeing Wu Tao looking for him alone, he smiled and bowed, saying: "Friend Li, do you want spark stone and demon silk?"
Wu Tao smiled and said: "Shopkeeper Yu, I have a good thing here, I wonder if you need it?"
"Oh?" Shopkeeper Yu immediately became interested and said: "Take it out for me to see."
Wu Tao took out the filthy crystal and put it in front of Shopkeeper Yu's desk.
"What is this?" Shopkeeper Yu saw it for the first time, and something came to his mind. He took it up and looked at it for a while before saying: "Yes, it is filthy crystal. However, the amount of this filthy crystal is too small. This evil spirit is not more than the first level. The price..."
He glanced at Wu Tao, "The price is naturally much lower, and it can be worth 130 low-grade spirit stones at most. So, considering that I am familiar with Friend Li, I will offer 150 low-grade spirit stones."
"What do you think of Friend Li?"
