Chapter 11 Lonely at night
Looking at the empty sleeve arrows, the middle-aged man clutched his neck and made an uh-uh sound.
He never expected that the other party had no hidden weapons.
From the beginning to the end, Xu Bai divided his heart with empty-sleeved arrows.
If he hadn't been distracted, maybe this ending would have been unknown, but he was.
Distraction means death.
The middle-aged man stared at Xu Bai, what Xu Bai said just now rang in his mind.
"Not deeply involved in the world..."
He really wanted to say that if Xu Bai was considered inexperienced, he wouldn't have to mess around as a veteran, but he couldn't say it now.
Blood is flowing more and more, and death is approaching.
The bright knife light flashed, the middle-aged man only felt a pain in his chest, and completely lost consciousness.
"I paid the bill for you, but you faced each other with swords and swords, and you died unjustly."
From the beginning to the end, Xu Bai never planned to give them a chance.
Wiping off the blood on the middle-aged man's body, he put the ghost knife in his waist, looked at the corpses in front of him, and began to search them one by one.
After searching, I got more than a dozen copper coins and a book with a yellowed cover.
The handwriting on the book could no longer be read clearly. Xu Bai glanced at it and raised his eyebrows.
Another golden progress bar!
"Tonight's harvest is really great..." Xu Bai rubbed his chin.
There were a few corpses lying around, and now it was dead of night, and he chose a remote alley, so no one saw him.
But it's not good to stay here for a long time. If someone comes, it will only be silenced.
He feels that he is not a bad person, and it is not very good to fight and kill.
Taking advantage of the dark night, he erased his traces, pulled out the sleeve arrow from the corpse, wiped off the blood on it, and left the alley.
…
The night is like water, and the moonlight is like brightness.
Xu Bai opened the door, and closed it after entering.
As soon as he entered the room, he went straight to the bedroom, took off his coat and lay on the bed, and put the ghost knife aside by the way.
In the bedroom, the oil lamp was dim.
In the era without electric lights, the flickering light of oil lamps was very suitable for shooting horror movies.
"It's rewarding, but not quite rewarding."
Xu Bai felt that the failure of the plan to visit the Fengyue place today was entirely the fault of those gangsters.
Originally, he planned to have a meal, and after eating, he would go shopping and enjoy the girls playing and singing, but who knew that as soon as they started chatting, they chatted until the evening.
He even killed them when he came back, which was unexpected.
"Is an honest person like me really easy to bully?" Xu Bai thought.
Maybe it is the law of time traveler...
The predecessors in those novels, didn’t they all have nothing before time travel, and after time travel, they became ruthless event harvesting machines.
Thinking of this, Xu Bai leaned against the wall, propped his chin with his hands, and fell into deep thought.
"It's still because I'm not deeply involved in the world."
He threw the pot away naturally, said something that made a dead person vomit blood, and then picked up the unnamed book that was put on the bed just now.
On the book, the golden progress bar is shining, especially in the dark.
Xu Bai stared intently.
After a stick of incense...
Looking at the progress bar that only increased a little, Xu Bai knew that he had found the treasure.
The slower the progress bar rises, the greater the benefit.
Look at the method of pounding the kidney, the quality is very good.
Although there is a side effect of kidney deficiency, it is only a short-term kidney deficiency, and the effect is great.
Therefore, the slower the rise, the happier Xu Bai was.
"Down it tonight!"
As the saying goes, long nights of sleepless nights.
At this moment, Xu Bai was indeed suffering from insomnia. He was staring intently by the light of the oil lamp.
Another stick of incense passed by...
If someone asked him now, if he didn't blink for a long time, would his eyes dry out? He would definitely slap that person.
Don’t know whether to do it or not?
"No, I have to do something." Xu Bai tried to open the book.
Just like watching "Keys to Strengthening the Kidney", he intends to use it to pass the time.
The yellowed book felt very brittle when turned over, as if a little more force would break the book.
Turning to the first page, the text jumps out on the paper.
"Round and smooth, the air goes through the gate of heaven, mysterious and indistinct, like chaos..."
As soon as he finished reading the first line, Xu Bai felt his head hurt.
He knew all the words above, but when they were put together, he didn't know them again.
It is difficult to understand, but it is difficult for a normal person to see it.
"The liver must come out tonight!"
Xu Bai was patient and continued to read.
Due to obscure reasons, the more I look back, the more dizzy I feel.
Looking at it, his speed of turning the pages of the book began to become faster, no longer carefully choosing every word, but looking at ten lines at a glance.
Anyway, it was just to pass the time, so Xu Bai didn't think it mattered.
After another stick of incense...
Xu Bai turned to the last page, expressionless.
Didn’t understand it, didn’t understand it at all, it was like reading a bible.
However, when I turned to the last page, I found something new. There was a piece of paper sandwiched between the last page of the book.
This discovery was like finding an unknown object named "XX Dictionary" in a computer folder, and Xu Bai immediately became excited.
Turn the paper over, and the words appear like a dog crawling.
Xu Bai looked carefully, it was a note about this book, and it was also a way of thinking.
After the paper was torn off, he opened the book and compared it carefully. The notes on the paper were not complete, only half of the book.
It's not like the annotations of this book, but more like a reader's understanding of the book.
According to this person's understanding, just half of it is enough to comprehend a low-level mental method.
"The word dog crawling..."
Xu Bai thought of that middle-aged man.
Could it be written by a middle-aged man?
He guessed that the middle-aged man did not know where he got this book, from which he comprehended a low-level and superficial mental method, and became a ninth-grade man from nowhere.
This speculation is very likely.
"Anyway, the level of this thing is better than the broken bone method."
Half of it can make low-level mental methods, and the whole book is of a higher level.
After reaching the conclusion, Xu Bai became more and more interested.
He didn't feel his eyes were dry either, and continued to stare intently.
…
It was a long night, and in the room, Xu Bai did not know how many times to add lamp oil, and stayed there until the rooster crowed.
【You observe unknown books and comprehend the method of slaughtering the heart. 】
When words appeared in front of his eyes, Xu Bai stared with slightly dull eyes.
Finally... done!
A night without sleep is nothing to Wufu.
But staring at a book all night, and still can't understand the things in the book, it is really tormenting.
In addition to being boring, it is even more drowsy.
It's like when the game is being loaded, the progress bar goes up a little bit, and just thinking about it makes my blood pressure full.
Fortunately, this night was not wasted, he finally finished the book.
"Tu Xin Fa... What is that?" Xu Bai thought to himself.
No imaginary information came into my mind, and the line of text seemed to be stuck, just staying in front of my eyes.
"Has it been spoiled?" Xu Bai stretched out his hand and scratched in front of his eyes.
The text in front of me seems to be restarting suddenly, and it is gradually changing.
A new line of text appears...
