"……"
Xu Hei fell into silence.
At this mont, he felt his body heating up, his mind in chaos, not knowing what to do next.
"Cough, cough!"
Suddenly, a cough ca from behind him.
The two snakes quickly turned around, only to see Hai Teng, who had sohow appeared behind Xu Hei.
He gazed at Xu Bai and spoke in a deep, serious tone, "Lovesickness, my mother once had this illness. She couldn't eat or drink, and couldn't focus on her cultivation. It was very severe. This pill, called the Forgetting Dust Pill, is said to cure your problem!"
His expression was solemn as he took out a pill, as if Xu Bai truly had a serious illness.
"Who asked for your help?" Xu Bai said.
"Hmm?"
Hai Teng frowned, then said coldly, "Xu Bai, I respect you as a master of dicine, but an illness must be treated. Your problem is very serious and can't be delayed, or else you might end up like my mother..."
"Boss, you'd better stop talking, let's go."
Hai Teng was speaking when Hai Er pulled him back, retreating.
Seeing his subordinate like this, Hai Teng snorted coldly but didn't resist, saying arrogantly, "You two better not die young, I still need to defeat you at the year-end conference!"
"Alright, stop talking, let's go back!"
Hai Er dragged Hai Teng away swiftly under the strange gazes of many.
…………
Seeing Hai Teng leave, Xu Bai rolled her eyes.
Xu Hei let out a long sigh of relief. Actually, he had been planning to say sothing similar to Hai Teng, but luckily Hai Teng stepped on the landmine for him.
What Xu Bai wanted to express wasn't that at all. This Hai Teng was truly a blockhead, understanding nothing, foolish to the extre.
"Xu Bai, you're from the Turtle lineage, right?"
"That's right!"
"Perfect, Elder Green Turtle once invited to visit. I'll go with you, and you can teach how to refine the Forgetting Dust Pill along the way," Xu Hei said. ȑᴀ𐌽ȪꞖΕš
"Huh? Why do you want to refine the Forgetting Dust Pill?" Xu Bai was surprised.
Xu Hei was taken aback and explained, "To cure your illness."
In Xu Hei's view, Xu Bai not wanting Hai Teng's pill ant she wanted Xu Hei to personally refine it for her, to cure her, which would be more aningful.
"……" Xu Bai was silent.
"What's wrong, is there a problem?" Xu Hei asked, puzzled.
Xu Bai remained silent.
Xu Hei was baffled, almost scratching his head in frustration.
At this mont, a faint voice ca from the gaps of his dragon scales, "Xu Hei, if you don't need your brain, you can donate it."
"Screw you!"
Xu Hei cursed, this little Ji Ying dared to mock him, truly infuriating, like a child needing a spanking every three days.
…………
The Penglai Sea, Turtle lineage, located in the southern Turtle Archipelago.
This place had over a thousand islands of various sizes. At its peak, each island had disciples, but now only a small portion remained inhabited.
The Turtle lineage's inherited immortal spells originated from the ancient Turtle Immortal. These spells were not only suitable for turtles but also for any shell-bearing demonic beasts.
Including fish, and even land creatures could cultivate them to so extent.
This also led to only half of the Turtle lineage being actual turtle disciples, with the rest being outsiders like Xu Bai.
Xu Hei's arrival didn't face any obstruction, as he was here as Xu Bai's guest.
Xu Bai's island was at the center of the Turtle Archipelago. The area was quite large, with beautiful scenery. The island had eighteen dicine gardens, clinics, pill refining rooms, training rooms, and other facilities, all fully equipped.
Moreover, the island was well-maintained, with all buildings neatly arranged, pleasing to the eye.
Unlike Xu Hei's island, which was almost in its primitive state.
"So many dicine gardens!"
Xu Hei landed and casually glanced around, showing surprise in his eyes.
The soil in these gardens was similar to that of the ancient dicine garden in the Blood Corpse Cave, evidently collected from there.
"Do you like it? If you do, you can co often!" Xu Bai said with a smile.
"Yeah!"
Xu Hei nodded. After a mont of silence, he suddenly said, "I feel like you've changed a lot, I almost didn't recognize you."
"Oh? Really."
Xu Bai landed in the dicine garden and said, "For example, how have I changed?"
"You used to be quiet and reserved, but now you talk a lot more, and..." Xu Hei trailed off, unsure how to describe it.
"In short, the change is too big."
Xu Hei, not good with words, could only summarize.
Xu Bai smiled and said, "Actually, as long as you interact more with people and talk more, after so practice, you'll also change a lot."
As Xu Bai spoke, she took out a tal box.
Opening it, it was filled with copper coins.
Xu Hei glanced over them roughly, estimating there were thousands.
"So many?" Xu Hei was surprised.
"Each copper coin represents a patient. These patients are all kinds of people, with different personalities. There are poor ones, rich ones, cultivators, mortals, rchants, fishern, honest ones, and cunning ones."
Xu Bai recounted with a smile, as if lost in mories.
She looked at a blood-stained copper coin and said, "This was left by a mortal couple. The wife was bitten in half by a demonic beast and couldn't survive. Her husband whispered sweet words in her ear, slowly, one sentence at a ti, until she closed her eyes."
Then, Xu Bai picked up a second copper coin and said, "This was left by a group of pirates. They plundered and killed, committing all sorts of evil, but they never killed children. I healed their leader, and they spared a village."
Xu Bai grabbed a third copper coin from the air and continued sharing her experiences.
"This was left by an old man. He wanted to finish reading a folk novel, but the next part never ca out. He wanted to extend his life, but I couldn't do it."
"……"
Xu Bai recounted, and Xu Hei listened quietly.
It had been a long ti since he and Xu Bai had talked like this.
The two snakes talked from day to night, from night to dawn, and unknowingly, most of the copper coins in the box had been discussed.
Xu Hei was captivated by Xu Bai's stories, which were quite fascinating.
Xu Bai looked at Xu Hei and smiled, "Xu Hei, what about your experiences?"
"?" Xu Hei fell silent.
What experiences could he have? Besides secluded cultivation, it was just fighting and killing, with almost no interaction with humans.
Even if there were, it was always with weapons drawn.
As for mortals, he wouldn't even spare them a glance.
These experiences also led to Xu Hei being particularly inarticulate, and after long periods of isolation, he easily fell behind in conversations.
Fists could solve most problems, but there were always troubleso situations.
Xu Hei suddenly thought of his inheritance in Wuyou City. Although in Wuyou City's inheritance, he was also training, training, and more training in the martial arts school, at least he had parents and people to communicate with.
"I don't have many experiences, but I had a strange dream where I beca human..." Xu Hei said slowly.
…………
Unknowingly, the sky brightened, and the sun was high.
Today marked three months since the recruitnt, and it was ti to evaluate the tasks.
On this day, each newcor would also be assigned a position.
The first three months were for familiarizing themselves with the Penglai Sea environnt. Once the ti was up, they had to perform their duties and contribute to the Penglai Sea.
Xu Hei and Xu Bai left the Turtle lineage and headed straight for the task island.
