MTL - The System Wants Me To Attack the Female Protagonist of Abuse-Chapter 79 seventy-nine tripods
◎Temperature (two more in one)◎
Li Zhi was startled by him, and he almost didn't shout out, "I, my name is Li Zhi."
Song Dingding didn't expect him to wake up suddenly, she motioned Li Zhi not to panic, and taught her a sentence: "Tell him that you found him in the stream, and you took him away because you were afraid that he would freeze to death outside. return."
Li Zhi followed her example, said those words carefully, and couldn't help but add: "I didn't tell anyone about you, don't hurt my brother."
Pei Ming stared at her for a long time, and let go of his hand: "Who is your brother and what did I hurt him?"
Hearing this, Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
She put the mashed purslane in a bowl and handed it to him: "This can reduce the swelling, and it won't hurt if you apply it on the wound."
Pei Ming scoffed at this, he has the ability to heal wounds, and he doesn't need to apply any herbs at all.
He wanted to get up and leave, resting his palms on the ground, but without any strength, he frowned slightly and looked at his legs.
He killed a lot of demon cultivators and monsters in the Demon Domain, and those dirty things were not enough to seriously hurt him.
Presumably, when the Demon Empress was fighting for the Chaos Lock with him, she accidentally bit her leg by the six silk spiders she raised.
After all, it was his biological mother, and Pei Ming didn't want to kill her.
But the Chaos Lock was originally a treasure handed down from the Immortal Mansion, and after the Empress of the Demon Realm ascended the throne, the first thing she did was order someone to steal the Chaos Lock.
He needs the Chaos Lock, only it can open up a road to the Celestial Clan, and anyone who gets in the way should be damned.
Now, although he has obtained the Chaos Lock, for some unknown reason, the Chaos Lock has become a dead thing, and no matter what he does, there is no response.
Pei Ming reached out and lifted the corner of the lingerie, his palms covered his knees, and he noticed the coldness oozing out of his knees, which was cold to the bone.
He sneered coldly, the Demon Empress is really a good dog raised by Tianjun, and she will not forget to yin him when she is about to die.
These six silk spiders are highly poisonous. He can heal wounds, but if he wants to detoxify the toxins in his body, he still needs to use his power to heal the wounds.
Pei Ming raised his black eyes and looked at the thin little girl in front of him. The moment he grabbed her arm, he had already probed her cultivation.
She has no spiritual power in her body, not even in the Foundation Establishment stage.
Even so, she is a good seedling for cultivating immortals, but she needs to take the pill for washing the marrow and cutting the bones during the foundation-building stage, and her clothes are all patches, so she must have no money to buy the pill.
Such a woman, like an ant, poses no threat to him.
However, just now she said that she has a brother...
As soon as Pei Ming was about to kill, he heard the little **** the opposite side ask, "Are you hungry, what do you want to eat? My brother brought me eggs, do you eat eggs?"
A pair of small scarred hands, holding two hard-boiled eggs, brought them to his eyes.
He lowered his eyes, holding back the killing intent in his eyes.
Well, if she kills her brother, this woman is still young and alone, she will not be able to survive.
"Don't let the second person know I'm here except you."
His voice was cold and sweet, like a pearl falling on a jade plate.
Li Zhi turned her head away and looked at Song Dingding with a little guilty conscience. After Song Dingding signaled her to come down, she convinced herself that this sister is a ghost, not a human being.
With that in mind, she held out her pinky to him.
Pei Ming narrowed his black eyes slowly: "What are you doing?"
Li Zhi said of course: "Pull the hook."
Looking at the little finger in front of him, he was slightly lost.
Once upon a time, there was a little girl of this age, just because she didn't want to take a bath, so he waited outside the screen and she couldn't leave, so she stretched out her hand to pull the hook with him.
But in just a few short years, it has become a vicissitudes of life.
"No need." Pei Ming lightly opened his thin lips and held back the coldness in his eyes: "If you let others know, I will silence it."
He spoke without the slightest emotion, cold, not like a threat, but as if he was explaining a fact to her.
Li Zhi was so frightened that his body trembled, and he looked at Song Dingding as if asking for help.
"You do as he says, he won't hurt you and Li Hua."
Li Zhi saved him, and he would not attack a little girl who didn't have any threats.
And what he said just now was clearly to frighten Li Zhi and let Li Zhi understand the seriousness of the matter, so as not to leak his words and leak his existence to others.
It seems that he was seriously injured and could not be away from here in a short time. Otherwise, he would not have told Li Zhiduo. With his temperament, he would have left long ago.
Li Zhi was a little afraid of this man covered in blood. She retracted her arms and wanted to go out. Just as she reached the door, he was stopped by him: "Wait a minute."
She took a step and her body froze slightly.
"Help me get a basin of clean water."
His voice was as light as a cloud of smoke, perhaps because he had just woken up, it was slightly hoarse.
Li Zhi responded, trotted into the yard, threw the wooden bucket into the bottom of the well, and filled up a bucket of cool well water.
It was early spring, and the sun was in full bloom at noon today, and the ice cubes condensed from the thick snow on the ground turned into ice water.
When Li Zhi filled a basin of water, he picked up the wooden basin with some difficulty and walked towards the firewood room.
Seeing her trembling steps, Pei Ming frowned, really wanting to reach out and take the water basin from her hand.
Li Zhi put the water basin in front of him, and was about to leave, but stopped again: "Do you need my help?"
"No need."
Pei Ming lowered his head, took out a plain white handkerchief from the storage ring, put it in the basin to wet it, and cleaned the blood on his body inch by inch.
The blood on his body belonged to others, and the blood that splattered the most on his robe was that of his biological mother, the Empress of the Demon Realm.
He wants to know if she is alive, does her blood have the temperature of a living person, is her heart red? Will it jump again?
So he cut open her chest and took out her heart with both hands while it was hot, but her blood was as cold as his.
His heart was also ordinary, unremarkable, which made him a little disappointed.
He also thought that her heart was made of stone.
Pei Ming's pale lips ooze a tinge of red, and he wiped the blood stains slowly and gracefully.
It's not like he's washing his body full of sin and blood, but he's like the noble son of a family of hairpins, wiping the corners of his lips after having just eaten breakfast.
Li Zhi was slightly stunned.
"I'll stay with you for a few days." He raised his eyelids lazily, took out a handful of high-level spirit stones from his storage ring, and threw them in front of her: "Reward."
Li Zhi: "…"
The first time she saw so many spirit stones, it was a high-level spirit stone, and a handful of them, about thirty or forty pieces, was enough for her and her brother to live without food and clothing for half a lifetime.
She really wanted to accept these spirit stones, but although she was young, she knew that she could not take ill-gotten gains.
The person in front of him was covered in blood. Who knows how his spiritual stone came from. If it was stolen or robbed, then she would be an accomplice.
Li Zhi bit her lip and stood in the same place for a while, but she still pushed back all the spirit stones with pain: "No need, wait for you to feel better, just leave here."
Pei Ming: "…"
It sounds like she's driving away stray dogs. What's going on?
He lightly opened his thin lips and was about to speak when the big yellow dog in the yard barked again, and Li Zhi knew that it was Li Hua coming back.
She quickly picked up the spirit stone on the ground and stuffed it into Pei Ming's hands, then trotted out of the woodshed and closed the door.
Li Hua put down the basket on his back, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "Zhizhi, Master told me to go back, saying that I found a sword manual, and I have to go to the city."
Li Zhi was already used to his uncertain whereabouts, but seeing that he was about to enter the city soon after returning, he was still a little gloomy.
She hid her emotions as best she could, and smiled at Li Hua: "It's getting dark, brother, be careful when you enter the city."
Li Hua could see her emotions, leaned down, raised his hand and rubbed her hair: "What do you like, I'll bring it to you when my brother comes back."
Li Zhi didn't want anything, but she also knew that if she kept silent, he must have thought she was angry, and he would not feel at ease even if he entered the city.
After thinking about it, she picked a cheaper one: "Aunt Liu bought some cloud cakes in the city last time. I tasted good."
Yunpian cakes are made of Jiangmi. In the past two years, the harvest of Jiangmi has been good, and the remaining ones have been made into Yunpian cakes. The price is cheaper than rice and noodles.
Li Hua got the answer, told her a few more words, and left with satisfaction.
Li Zhi stood guard at the gate of the courtyard until he could not see his figure, and then reluctantly entered the courtyard.
She bolted the courtyard door from the inside, sat on the small bench in the courtyard, peeled off the egg that Li Hua brought her, and took a light bite.
Song Dingding stood ten steps away from her, watching her carefully eating eggs, she felt a little sad: "He just gave you the spirit stone, why not?"
Li Zhi chewed the egg in his mouth and said vaguely, "It's too much, it's just a little effort."
She was willing to eat half of the eggs in her hand, and she threw the other half to the big yellow dog watching the yard.
Song Dingding looked at her and sighed lightly.
Li Zhi didn't seem to be ready to tell Li Hua what she said, but Li Hua was still immersed in sword training at this time, just wanting to stand out and lead Li Zhi to live a good life.
If this continues, Li Zhi's ending seems to be obvious.
"Apart from life, everything else is outside the body. It can't be brought by life, and it can't be brought by death."
Song Dingding tried to persuade her, she struggled with her words, trying to make Li Zhi listen as much as possible: "After you died, Li Hua has been living in self-blame and suffering."
Li Zhi fell silent.
I don't know how long it took, she said slowly: "Sister, you said that even if my brother doesn't participate in this competition, I may not be able to survive, right?"
"Since this is the case, how can I use my unknown life in exchange for my brother's boundless future?"
This time, it was Song Dingding's turn to fall silent.
What Li Zhi meant was that if the development followed the original trajectory, Li Hua would at least be the No. 1 Sword Immortal in Jiuzhou, and the future would be limitless.
But if the original trajectory was changed for her, she would not necessarily survive, and Li Hua would not necessarily become the number one swordsman in the Xiuxian world.
Li Zhi didn't want to exchange an unknown number for a known number.
Song Dingding couldn't believe it, this was something a little girl who was less than eight years old could say.
Just when she was stunned, Li Zhi moved into the house with a small bench: "Sister, I'm going to bed first."
In order to save money, Li Zhi went in in the dark, opened half of the windows, and did not light any candles.
That night, Song Dingding sat in the yard until dawn. She thought about it a lot. She couldn't figure out why good people didn't pay for their lives. She only knew that Li Zhi shouldn't die.
Until dawn the next day, Li Zhi walked out of the house after grooming.
She was going to go to Aunt Liu's house next door, chat with Aunt Liu, and collect some shoe soles to sell in the city.
But when she saw Song Dingding, she suddenly remembered that there was still a big living person lying in the woodshed, and quickly opened the door of the woodshed.
Li Zhi's movement was so great that Pei Ming's eyelashes trembled.
"What are you here for?"
His eyes were half-closed, his voice slightly clear.
After Li Zhi sent Li Hua off last night, he forgot about him. It was early spring, and although the ice and snow melted, it was still cold.
He had been on the dirt floor of the firewood room all night yesterday, and she thought he had frozen to death.
Seeing that he was okay, Li Zhi heaved a sigh of relief: "It's cold on the ground, can I put some hay for you?"
Pei Ming didn't speak, and she didn't know whether he agreed or not, so she looked in Song Dingding's direction at a loss.
Before she saw Song Dingding, she heard him say, "What are you looking at?"
From yesterday, Pei Ming discovered that every time Li Zhi spoke to him, he would subconsciously look in one direction.
However, there is clearly nothing there.
What's more, she was talking to herself in the yard last night, as if there was something wrong with her mind.
Hearing this, Li Zhi quickly lowered his head: "No, nothing."
Pei Ming looked at her, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Pour me a cup of tea."
It's more of an order than a request.
Li Zhi didn't mind either. Every time she went to the city to sell something, she would be looked down upon by others. Compared with those people, his tone was already very polite.
"I don't have tea at home. Aunt Liu's house next door should have it. I'll borrow some."
She has a very good temperament, and her voice is soft and waxy, and it is a little uncomfortable to call Pei Ming: "No need, just drink water."
Li Zhi trotted out, picked up water and poured it into a large pot, put two handfuls of washed purslane, stepped on the bench and held a long spoon for scooping soup, and stirred the pot twice.
She still remembered Song Dingding's words, purslane is a medicinal herb that clears heat and relieves dampness, detoxifies and relieves swelling. Anyway, this thing grows everywhere in the yard, and it doesn't need to spend money. It can be boiled and drunk in water.
Pei Ming looked at her busy figure and closed his eyes slightly.
The venom of the six silk spiders is much more powerful than he imagined, but the problem is not big, that is, it takes a few more days to detoxify.
He asked, "When will your brother come back?"
Li Zhi didn't think much about it: "Three or five days."
She was waiting for him to continue to ask questions, but he seemed to be dumb, sitting on the ground with his eyes closed and meditating.
Li Zhi pouted, poured out the boiled purslane water, put it in a bowl and handed it to him.
Pei Ming took the worn-out porcelain bowl and was about to drink it, but saw her reaching out to stop him: "It's just burnt, it's hot."
The implication is to let him blow and drink again.
He raised his eyes and glanced at her lightly, not knowing what he was thinking, his arm hanging in the air didn't move, his eyes fell on the wrist she tapped.
How dare you touch him.
If he knew that he was the Daojun Wuzang of the Immortal Mansion, he would be scared to pack up and run away overnight.
Li Zhi noticed his gaze and quickly let go.
Pei Ming lowered his eyes, raised his head and drank the freshly boiled water in the bowl: "It's okay."
After he finished drinking, he returned the broken bowl to her.
Li Zhi took down the hot egg on the lid of the pot.
She wanted to leave directly, but remembered that he was still hungry and tangled, she turned around and put the egg in his hand.
Pei Ming looked at the little girl who walked away quickly like a gust of wind, slightly startled, and looked down at the egg lying in the palm of her hand.
The egg was hot, adding a touch of red to his pale and colorless palm.
His well-knotted fingertips folded slightly, slowly holding the egg, the scalding temperature seeping into the palm of his hand, as if it warmed his icy blood.
The firewood room was too small, and Song Dingding needed to keep a distance from Li Zhi, so when Li Zhi was in the firewood room, she basically stood outside the door.
Just now, he asked Li Zhi what he was looking at, and she was so shocked that her heart almost jumped out. She thought he could see her too.
As soon as Li Zhi walked out of the firewood room, Song Dingding warned, "He is a person who cultivates immortals. He has excellent ears and eyesight. It's best to avoid him when talking in the future."
She nodded, dug out the female worker's stuff from the house, put it in a basket, and walked to the next door.
The woman who accompanied her in the laundry yesterday was Aunt Liu, who lived next door to her.
Aunt Liu is a widow and has a son under her lap. Like Li Hua, she also learns swordsmanship in the city.
When Li Hua was not at home, Aunt Liu helped to take care of her.
Seeing her coming, Aunt Liu greeted her, took out the steamed buns with wild vegetables, and stuffed two or three into her hands while it was still hot.
Li Zhi was a little embarrassed and wanted to return it to Aunt Liu, but her stomach groaned inappropriately.
Li Hua would buy her rice and noodles, but these grains were too expensive, so she was reluctant to eat them, so she made the flour into dry noodles.
After the noodles are dried, she cooks a handful of dried noodles every night. She eats half of it and gives half to the big yellow dog at home.
It is because she only eats one meal a day that she loses so much weight.
Aunt Liu patted her hand with pity in her eyes: "Poor child, eat quickly."
Li Zhi refused, but she accepted the wild vegetable buns. She calculated in her heart that when Li Hua bought the cloud cake, she would give half of it to Aunt Liu to eat.
She devoured it, and quickly finished one bun. Looking at the two remaining buns in her hand, she hesitated and put the buns away.
Li Zhi followed Aunt Liu and became a female celebrity all day. Before evening, the two packed up the soles of their shoes and went to the city together.
Walking from the path, you can walk to the city gate in half an hour.
Most of the people in the city are cultivators, but this is the outer city, and their cultivation is not very high, and they are basically the outer disciples of the foundation-building period.
They practice every day and walk around a lot, and the soles of their shoes are worn out. When they finish school at night, they will go to the city to buy new shoes.
The shoes made by Li Zhi have fine needles and threads, strong and beautiful, and they are better than those sold by street vendors in the city.
It is because of this that every time she enters the city, she will be run on by nearby vendors, either scolding her for having no father or mother, or saying that she is despicable and dirty.
When Aunt Liu was here, she would be better, but if she was alone, the abusive words would be even more unbearable.
Fortunately, she was used to it. After all, she robbed other people's business, and she had to subsidize her family. She couldn't make money or eat because she was angry.
Aunt Liu was with her today, and those people didn't dare to scold her. They were all muttering behind her back.
Song Dingding followed her and heard the vendors on the left and right sides of her scolding Li Zhi, saying that with such a well-behaved and handsome face, it is better to go to a brothel to sell her body than to compete with them here and sell shoes.
She didn't know if Li Zhi heard it or not, but she heard it anyway, and she felt furious.
Song Dingding asked Li Zhi to set up a stall in a farther place. After Li Zhi left, she floated over the man's head and pinched the vendor's neck with both hands.
She has no physical body, but as soon as she comes into contact with a living person, after a long time, the living person can also feel the eerie chill.
She pinched the people who insulted Li Zhi one by one. Several vendors turned pale and ugly, and finally couldn't stand it anymore, so they closed the stall and left in advance.
Before leaving, several people did not forget to mutter: "Damn it, it's already spring, why is it still so cold."
As soon as the vendors left, Song Dingding called Li Zhi back, and there were no other people blocking the business. Li Zhi and Aunt Liu sold all the shoes they had saved for five days.
Before Li Zhi left the city, he used the money he earned from selling shoes to buy some needles and thread, and some rice and grain.
The remaining spirit stones, together with the spirit stones that had been saved in the past, were taken to the cloth village to cut a few feet of silk cloth for Li Hua.
It is said that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles, and Li Hua cannot be allowed to compete in patched clothes.
She wanted to make a fitted dress for Li Hua, and it would be more respectable to go out than to try it on.
When we got back to the village, it was already dark.
Song Dingding couldn't imagine how Li Zhi, a little girl, came back from the city in the dark without Aunt Liu to accompany her.
Entering the yard, the big yellow dog wagged its tail and barked twice, as if to welcome Li Zhi back.
Li Zhi took out the buns that he had put away from the sewing basket, and threw one to the big yellow dog to eat and the other to the firewood room.
When Pei Ming saw the wrinkled, cold wild vegetable buns, his brows were as wrinkled as the folds on the buns.
Even though she couldn't eat enough herself, she left eggs and steamed buns for him to eat. I don't know what she was thinking about.
"I'm not hungry."
Saying that, he threw the egg she gave her in the morning to her: "I've been fasting for a long time, you can keep it for yourself."
Li Zhi felt that he was fierce, so he didn't dare to say more, put some hay under him, and left the woodshed with eggs and steamed buns.
As soon as she left the front foot, an unexpected guest came to the firewood house on the back foot.
The man was wearing a hat and dressed in black, which attracted Song Dingding to look at him.
This figure looks like a man.
He turned into the firewood room through the window, and Song Dingding felt that he was doing nothing because the door of the firewood room was already open.
This person was obviously aimed at Daojun Wuzang. She did not disturb Li Zhi and floated into the firewood room.
The man crossed his arms around his chest, taking advantage of the night to look carefully at something, as if he was admiring the troubled youth in front of him.
Pei Ming didn't bother to lift his eyelids, and half closed his eyes: "Bai Zhou, what are you looking for from me?"
Bai Zhou was the previous Palace Master of the Immortal Mansion and Bai Qi's father, and the Chaos Lock was lost in his hands.
If it wasn't for Bai Zhou's love brain, and for a woman whose appearance was three-point similar to Bai Qi's mother before her death, he would hand over the Chaos Lock to others.
Why did he go to the Demon Domain to fight alone, all the way to the Demon Palace, where he was bitten by the six silk spider raised by the Demon Queen.
Bai Zhou knew that Pei Ming didn't want to see him, and also knew that if it wasn't for his life-saving grace to Pei Ming, the grass on his grave would have been three feet tall now.
He slowly admired the embarrassment of the person in front of him, and he didn't hesitate to say straight to the point: "Is the current Chaos Lock like a dead thing that can't be opened?"
Hearing that he mentioned the Chaos Lock, Pei Ming finally had a reaction. He slowly raised his black eyes and looked at Baizhou: "Do you know the reason?"
"What are you staring at me for? I didn't break it." Bai Zhou was horrified by his stare, and took two steps back: "If you want to blame this, you can only blame your mother."
"In order to destroy the chaotic lock, she soaked the chaotic lock for three days and three nights with the blood of the people of the sun in the yang year, the moon, the sun and the sun..."
Pei Ming was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, and asked directly: "How to fix the Chaos Lock?"
Bai Zhou looked at him and suddenly laughed: "The way to crack it is to use the blood of the people of the most yin to soak the Chaos Lock for three days and three nights."
"It's not a coincidence that you borrowed the little girl who lives here, the woman named Li Zhi, who was born in this yin year, the yin moon, the yin sun, and the yin sun."
Pei Ming was silent for a while: "What do you mean?"
"Don't you understand what I mean?" Bai Zhou raised his eyebrows, leaned against the wall, folded his arms and chuckled, "Then I'll be more straightforward..."
"Cut out Li Zhi's heart, take the blood of his heart as a guide, and repair the Chaos Lock."
