I see Qingshan

Chapter 4 You Unlock It
The man forced out what he thought was a kind smile. "You know, I was seriously injured for some reason back then, and it hasn't healed for years. I need to find a precious herbal remedy."

Hearing the man's words, Tang Xin was puzzled: "I don't know..."

She didn't know him at all.

The smile on the man's face didn't last long, and an imperceptible hostility appeared in his eyes: "But I think you should know."

"Oh, yes, yes, I know. Can I go to the pharmacy and buy you some medicine?"

Tang Xin nodded and bowed hurriedly. This guy is crazy! It’s better not to bother with him!
The man's eyes were filled with suspicion. "Does the pharmacy sell phoenixes?"

Phoenix? !
Tang Xin stared at the man for a long time without saying anything.

The man said, "My wound requires the blood of the White Phoenix. Go and help me get the blood."

Tang Xin pointed at herself in confusion: "Ah, me?"

Seeing the man's as-a-matter-of-course expression, Tang Xin felt like her head was about to smoke.

She had only seen the legendary creature, the phoenix, on TV and in novels.

Regardless of whether it exists in this world, even if it does, why would a little girl like her, Karami, be asked to catch a phoenix and extract its essence and blood?

Is it his brain that is injured?

Tang Xin: "I don't even know where Phoenix is."

Man: “I know.”

Tang Xin: "Actually, you should be able to see that I'm just an ordinary human being who can't even tie a chicken..."

Man: "So, you don't want to help me."

Tang Xin felt like she couldn't reason with this person, so her mind raced. Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she immediately explained, "Of course I'm willing, but... I can't get out. It seems like there's an invisible barrier blocking this place... Do you know how to get out?"

She felt that this reason was perfect. It was not that she didn't want to help, but that she simply couldn't get out.

The man glanced outside the inn and said, "Untie it and you can get out."

Tang Xin was a little confused: "Unlock? How to unlock it?"

The man narrowed his eyes slightly: "I should ask you this, not you asking me back."

Only now was Tang Xin certain that this guy had really injured his head.

Anyway, I can rarely fully understand what he says. It's even harder than doing English reading comprehension.

The man glanced at Tang Xin and said, "This is my first time asking someone for help. I don't want it to happen again."

Tang Xin: "..."

For the first time in her life, she realized that asking for help with this attitude was possible. It seemed to be no different in essence from holding a knife to her neck.

At the man's request, Tang Xin took him to the second floor and found a clean guest room for him to rest.

"Wait until I'm well rested. If it's not untied yet..."

Before Tang Xin could leave, the man's cold voice made her tremble all over.

Although he didn't finish his words, everyone could understand what he meant.

Your life is in danger.

……

As soon as Tang Xin returned to the courtyard, she heard Qingsong humming a cheerful tune.

"What's wrong? You look so dejected."

Qingsong saw Tang Xin and asked.

"I'm afraid I won't live long. That thing wasn't a human, it was a snake that jumped out of a stone... Moreover, he forced me to catch the phoenix. When I said I couldn't get out, he asked me to remove the barrier! How could I have that ability!" Tang Xin said with a sad face.

Compared to it, green pine is better.

Qingsong's tone was unusually serious: "After you die, can you bury me and use me as fertilizer?"

Tang Xin: "..."

She retracted her previous thought. This guy was not a good person either.

Qingsong: "Alas, actually, I was just joking with you. After all, I watched you grow up."

Tang Xin hummed twice, then silently put down the rusty axe in his hand.

Qingsong was silent for a while and then said, "How about I teach you a way to feel energy?"

Feel the energy?

It sounds like it's awesome.

Didn’t it say before that its only ability was to argue with people?

Tang Xin was skeptical: "Really?"

Qingsong said calmly, "All things have spirits and can feel the presence of energy. The only difference is the method. Once you master the method, you can open the door to a new world." Tang Xin's blood boiled with enthusiasm: "Okay, you say, I'll do it."

Qingsong said: "Now, let's feel the scorching heat of the sun first."

Tang Xin asked doubtfully, "Now?"

Qingsong said: "Yes, now."

Tang Xin frowned: "But it's night time now..."

There is only the sound of the night wind.

Tang Xin: "Why aren't you talking?"

Before Tang Xin could continue asking, a loud noise suddenly came from the second floor, which made her heart tremble suddenly.

She had just taken the old man to the guest room to rest not long ago, so she knew without a doubt who had made the noise.

Tang Xin didn't dare to delay and ran upstairs quickly.

……

At this moment, the man was shirtless, with a sinister look in his eyes, looking back and forth at the door.

The house was in a mess.

The newly bought coffee table was smashed to pieces, the wall-mounted air conditioner was pulled down and squeezed into a pancake shape, and even the TV screen had a big hole in it.

These furniture and appliances were just replaced by her parents...

The inn had not yet made a penny of profit under her management, but a financial crisis had already occurred.

All the money was lost...

How could she have provoked such an evil star?

She didn't pay a penny for the hotel stay, and it still caused her such serious financial losses.

Do you really think you are afraid of it?
Tang Xin wanted to curse, but the man's cold gaze brought her back to reality.

Well, it thought so.

Tang Xin forced a smile and asked softly, "What happened?"

The man said indifferently, "Get some water."

Tang Xin glanced at the small refrigerator in the corner and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it wasn't completely smashed.

She pulled a glass of sparkling water from the mini fridge and handed it to the man.

After drinking the water, a few seconds passed and the man seemed to calm down a little. He then sat back on the bed.

Tang Xin observed the man's gradually warming expression with a puzzled look on her face.

Did he destroy his own inn just because he was thirsty and couldn't find water?

"Is it untied?" the man asked.

How long has it been?

Tang Xin answered cautiously, "Maybe... not yet. It will probably take some time, because I'm a bit clumsy..."

As Tang Xin finished speaking, there was a "bang" sound.

As a sharp and piercing sound rang out, the glass bottle in the man's hand shattered into pieces and flew everywhere.

"it is good."

The man nodded, his pupils slowly turning. "That's alright, I'm very patient. I'll give you some more time to study."

Tang Xin quickly nodded in agreement and turned to leave.

"Have you finished your research now?"

Before she even stepped out of the door, the man's cold voice rang out again.

Tang Xin: “???”

She glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that only about ten seconds had passed.

Is this what he calls patience?

Tang Xin didn't know where she got the courage from, and she said firmly, "Can you be patient? I haven't even left the house yet!"

"Um... please help me change rooms."

Tang Xin: "..."

She moved out almost all the furniture and appliances from the next room, and only then did she feel a little relieved and let the man move in.
