Wedding ceremony tomorrow

Chapter 30 Gold, Give It Back!

I woke up to find it was already late at night.

Luo Qingfeng opened his eyes and lay on the bed for a while before getting up.

Open the window.

Outside the window, the stars and moon were dim, and the rain had stopped.

In the muddy corner of the courtyard, petals were scattered everywhere.

Luo Qingfeng's gaze passed over the small courtyard and the darkness, landing on the empty space where the houses had disappeared.

He was stunned for a long time.

He closed the window, returned to bed, and took out the red jade pendant.

The jade pendant had already shattered, so why did it suddenly come back together?

He observed carefully.

The jade pendant is covered with red silk threads, which crisscross like veins.

He remembered that it wasn't this clear inside before it was broken.

Is it a tiny crack? Or...?

At that moment, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind!

"A treasure?"

The book records that some powerful magical artifacts can not only be upgraded and changed size, but also possess their own internal structures, allowing them to heal themselves...

Could this piece of red jade be a treasure?

But if it really is a precious artifact, why did it shatter when he dropped it?

Furthermore, if it truly is a precious artifact, then how could the girl be an ordinary person?

Or perhaps, she didn't actually know either?

Many questions welled up in my mind.

He looked at the jade pendant in his hand, and the identification methods recorded in the book immediately came to mind.

If it is a treasure, according to the book, if it is an unowned item and does not contain a soul imprint, its authenticity can be determined simply by inputting star power.

Thinking of this, he immediately clenched his fist in his hand and closed his eyes.

Immediately, stars twinkled in the sea of ​​energy, and a surge of star power quickly rose up his arm and reached his palm.

The star power lingered in his palm for a moment, and then suddenly, with a "whoosh," it pierced into the jade pendant in his hand without any problems!

It actually worked!

It can be infused with star power; it must be a treasure!

Before Luo Qingfeng could even feel a surge of joy, the jade pendant in his palm suddenly emitted a dazzling red light with a "whoosh"!

Then, red threads quickly emerged from the jade pendant, as if they were alive, and rushed into his palm and into his body!

"Wow, so many little tadpoles..."

Hmm? Why would he suddenly have this strange idea?

A tearing pain came over me.

The dense red threads quickly followed his meridians to his dantian, then rapidly gathered and intertwined, instantly weaving a bizarre blood-red picture!

The picture was covered with dense red characters, as well as some blurry mountains and rivers, strange buildings, and even some huge monster shadows.

But soon, the blood-red painting quickly closed up and rolled up.

Then, it rapidly shrank, turning into a red bead.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the same Demon Pill I had seen that night.

However, the Demon Core was black, while this round bead was red and much larger, with red light flashing and ripples flowing on it, looking extremely eerie.

The jade pendant in his hand quickly lost its luster and returned to its original state.

The clearly visible silk threads inside suddenly disappeared.

And the body returned to calm.

Luo Qingfeng looked inside.

In the sea of ​​Fuhai, a red bead appeared, floating there motionless.

Apart from that, there were no other abnormalities.

When he used the star power in his sea of ​​energy to touch the red bead, it did not react at all.

Luo Qingfeng was stunned for a moment.

Is that all?

What kind of treasure is the jade pendant? And what is that red bead?

He was puzzled and tried to activate his star power for a long time, but still nothing unusual happened.

"Or perhaps my current cultivation level is insufficient?"

He suddenly realized this possibility.

With most of the night already gone, he decided not to waste any more time and put away the jade pendant to prepare for cultivation.

There's no point in thinking about this now; let's try it again when we advance in the future.

He quickly entered a meditative state.

at the same time.

On a snow-covered mountain, frozen for miles, a stunningly beautiful young woman draped in a snow-white fur robe sheathed her sword from the snow and continued walking forward.

On the snow she passed, a huge monster lay there, lifeless.

Blood stained the white snow.

A cold wind swept by, and the girl's long, flowing hair danced gently. Her icy face, now veiled, was breathtakingly beautiful under the moonlight!

Even the proud and aloof snow lotus not far away bowed its head in the wind, not daring to look up.

She continued walking forward.

That snow-white, icy figure quickly disappeared into the distant snowstorm...

The next morning.

Luo Qingfeng awoke from his cultivation state, and with a thought, the two lines of data appeared in his mind.

[Progress: 80]

[Creation Realm, Second Star Level, Progress: 90]

Upon seeing the newly appeared data, Luo Qingfeng was startled, thinking he had misread it.

I looked at it again carefully, and it is indeed eighty and ninety!

How could it suddenly rise so fast?

In just two days, these two lines of data have increased so much!

Zero became eighty, and thirty became ninety!

He pondered this to himself.

Was it because of Zhao'er's suicide that he suddenly regained his memory and became lucid, or was it because he absorbed the energy of that red jade last night?

Judging from his previous cultivation speed, if he cultivates for another night, he will be able to advance to the next level.

However, the process will likely slow down as it progresses.

It may take two nights.

Even though it would take two more nights, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.

That's some serious speed at which they advanced!

Keep in mind that he has only spent less than ten days from the start of his cultivation until now!

Moreover, the process for the first row of data is already at number eighty.

Once he uses the second line of data to advance to the Three-Star Opening Realm, he should soon be able to advance again using the first line of data!

At that time, he will directly reach the realm of the fourth star of the Heavenly Creation stage!

In less than a month, four stars of the Heavenly Realm were created!

You should know that Nightingale and those people were only at the fourth level of the Opening Heaven realm.

The long-haired man they called their leader was only at the fifth level of the Open Heaven Realm.

This cultivation speed...

Just then, footsteps suddenly came from outside.

Then, Ping'er's voice rang out: "Young Master Luo, are you up? This servant has brought your breakfast."

Luo Qingfeng immediately got dressed, got out of bed, and left the room.

Ping'er carried the breakfast to the stone table in the courtyard, then walked up to the corridor and said, "Young Master Luo, did you drink the ginger soup last night? Where is the bowl? I'll take it to the kitchen to wash it."

Luo Qingfeng took the empty bowl from the window and handed it to her, saying, "The ginger soup is a bit bitter. Add some sugar next time."

Ping'er took the empty bowl, glanced at it, and smiled, "Okay, I'll remember."

Then she added, "By the way, Young Master Luo, Miss went to the shop. Before she left, she told me to take good care of you. If you need anything, just let me know. I'll be busy up front."

Luo Qingfeng said, "There's nothing I need. I'm going to study later, so I don't want anyone to disturb me."

Ping'er nodded upon hearing this, then looked at the breakfast on the table and said, "Young master, please eat quickly. I'll clear the dishes when you're done."

Luo Qingfeng walked to the well, drawing water as he said, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll eat later and take it to the kitchen myself."

Ping'er hesitated for a moment.

Luo Qingfeng looked at her again and said, "I need to use the restroom later."

Ping'er then said, "Oh, then this servant will take her leave now."

After saying that, she picked up the empty bowl and left the courtyard.

Luo Qingfeng watched the figure walk out the door, glanced at the breakfast on the stone table, and then continued to fetch water.

After washing up.

He walked to the gate of the courtyard, glanced outside, then returned to the courtyard, picked up a shovel, dug a hole in the corner of the wall, then went over, picked up his breakfast, poured it all into the hole, and buried it.

My stomach is very hungry, it's rumbling.

He washed his hands, pondered for a while in the courtyard, then took the empty bowl and went out to the kitchen.

The kitchen was empty.

He put down the empty bowl, glanced at the water vat in the corner, and turned to leave.

Exit through the back door.

He gave the nightingale the last piece of gold he had.

He is now penniless and has no money to buy meat.

He decided to try his luck in the mountains outside the town, hoping to catch some wild game.

With his current speed and strength, it should be quite easy for him.

"Coo coo..."

The thought of wild game made me even hungrier.

He tried to travel through secluded alleys to avoid attracting attention.

After all, he was already famous in the small town.

Fortunately, the people in the town were busy early in the morning, and not many people paid attention to him.

Soon, he left the town.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to go to the woods and wilderness to the south to see if he could catch a few wild rabbits or deer.

The feeling of being hungry is truly unpleasant.

He quickened his pace.

As he approached the woods ahead, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Under a large tree in front, a slender girl in a black dress stood there motionless, seemingly lost in thought.

"Huh, is that her?"

When Luo Qingfeng saw this girl, he couldn't help but recall that twilight day when she slew a demon with a single sword strike.

At that moment, the girl also suddenly saw him.

The moment she saw him, the girl's blank eyes suddenly lit up.

She shifted her body slightly, as if she wanted to walk towards him.

But for some reason, she suddenly stopped there, a hint of panic showing on her pretty, innocent face.

At this moment, Luo Qingfeng had already walked up to her.

"Young lady, what a coincidence, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the girl suddenly turned around, her back to him, and then reached out her small hand to him.

Luo Qingfeng was taken aback, his face full of doubt.

"Young lady, is there something you want?"

The girl had her back to him, stretched out her small hand, and nodded, but her expression was not visible.

Luo Qingfeng asked curiously, "What does the young lady want?"

The girl didn't speak, but silently stretched out her small hand.

Luo Qingfeng thought for a moment, glanced at the patches on her black dress, and guessed, "You're not hungry like me, are you, are you?"

The girl paused for a moment, then shook her head.

Luo Qingfeng was puzzled. He walked over, stood in front of her, and looked at her face.

The girl hurriedly turned around, her back to him, and reached out her small hand to him again.

Luo Qingfeng shrugged: "How am I supposed to know what you want if you don't tell me?"

The girl seemed to hesitate for a moment, then squatted down, picked up a twig from the ground, and after hesitating for a while, wrote a few words crookedly on the ground.

Luo Qingfeng leaned closer and looked at it carefully.

"All...children...mine..."

The girl quickly shook her head and rewrote it, her fair face suddenly turning red.

Her handwriting was really ugly, and it seemed like she really didn't know how to write that character. She wrote it over and over again, feeling anxious and shy. Even her little ears peeking out from under her hair were completely red.

Luo Qingfeng finally realized: "Gold! Mine!"

The girl nodded repeatedly, then stood up, turned her back to him, and stretched out her small hand to him.

Luo Qingfeng was stunned for a moment before he understood.

So, last time she only wanted silver and copper coins, not that piece of gold, not because she disliked gold, but because she didn't know it at all.

Now that we've suddenly met, is that why you're thinking of asking for it?

Could she have been waiting for him here specifically for several days?

Luo Qingfeng was speechless. Considering his current predicament, he could only brazenly feign ignorance and ask, "What gold? Has anyone found the young lady's gold?"

The girl paused for a moment, then suddenly turned around, her face flushed, her dark eyes staring at him, and her lips seemed to be slightly pouting.

Luo Qingfeng's cheeks suddenly felt hot.

But he really has no gold now, not even a single copper coin, let alone gold.

And my stomach is growling with hunger right now.

"Um... I've run out of money..."

He didn't dare to pretend to be stupid anymore and could only awkwardly say...

The girl froze for a moment, her face turning blank, as if she hadn't expected this outcome.

She subconsciously reached out and touched her waist, as if she wanted to draw her sword.

Luo Qingfeng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "Miss, I will repay you, I definitely will. But..."

"But I don't have any right now, and I'm so hungry. I don't have the energy to earn money to pay you back. How about... how about you lend me some more money so I can buy a few pounds of meat?"

Girl: "???"
