Sword Soul. Qianlong

Baili Tusu hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to find a place to rest for the night, and contact the client tomorrow after the announcement is reposted.

It's just that there is one thing that troubles Baili Tusu, that is, he is penniless now, not even money for meals, let alone lodging.

So the penniless Baili Shaoxia had no choice but to wander around the streets with the fish demon on his shoulders, planning to find a deserted residential house or a ruined temple as a shelter for tonight.

It's just that his luck didn't seem to be very good, and he couldn't find a suitable place to live after walking for a long time.

Fortunately, it was already dark at this time, and there were hardly any pedestrians on the street. Otherwise, he would definitely attract everyone's curious eyes when he walked around the street carrying a fish demon that looked very different from ordinary people.

Baili Tusu carried the fish demon for a long time and felt his arms were sore, so he had to change his posture and hug the fish demon in his arms and continue walking.I thought to myself that this fish demon is not strong at all except for the arms, I didn't expect it to be so heavy.

Baili Tusu wandered the streets and alleys of Jiangling City for a long time with the fish demon in his arms, and finally found a deserted ancestral hall in a remote alley.

Although the ancestral hall looked very dilapidated, it was better to settle down there than to sleep on the street.

Baili Tusu walked into the ancestral hall, found a cleaner place by the moonlight shining in from outside, bent down and put the fish demon on the ground, and then sat down beside the fish demon against the wall.

Probably because of the serious injury, the fish demon remained unconscious.

Baili Tusu casually placed a confinement circle around him to prevent him from waking up and escaping, and then began to close his eyes and meditate.

Just when Baili Tusu was getting sleepy and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly heard a voice from beside him, which seemed to be the voice of the fish demon.

Baili Tusu woke up instantly, and opened his eyes to look at the fish demon who was still lying on the ground beside him.

Its handsome brows were slightly frowned and its eyes were tightly closed, obviously still immersed in a deep sleep, but a look of pain clearly appeared on its pale handsome face.

The voice I heard just now must be talking in my sleep.

Xia Yi returned to the night of the banquet.

He was designed to appear in the form of a monster, and everyone regarded him as a scourge, either retreating in panic, or facing each other with swords.

Even the closest servants around him in the past looked at him with fear.

"Monster! The third prince is a monster!"

"The monster killed the First Prince!"

"Kill him!"

"Second prince, please love Lian'er, take Lian'er away! Lian'er doesn't want to be eaten by the monster third prince!"

Xia Yi clenched his fists tightly, unable to tell whether the piercing pain was due to the broken seal or whether it came from the bottom of his heart.

"No! I'm not a demon! I've never harmed anyone!" Xia Yi murmured, with doubts in his voice, the pain of being betrayed by everyone, and the panic of being at a loss, "You...why do you look at me like this? I?"

Baili Tusu couldn't help but tremble slightly when he heard it, and his intuition told him that there seemed to be something wrong.

Unconsciously, he lowered his head and stared at the handsome face of the fish demon, only to see that the pain on his face deepened, and the confusion and pain in his voice became more and more obvious, "Mother Concubine, Master... tell me, what is going on? What's going on? Am I a human or a demon?!"

After Baili Tusu quietly listened to his sleep talk, his doubts grew deeper.

Listening to what the fish demon said, it seems... he didn't know that he was a half-monster before.

Moreover, he has never done anything harmful to nature before.

If the fish demon explained to Baili Tusu that he was innocent, he might not believe it, but... no one can lie when talking in sleep.

What's more, the pain and doubt on the fish monster's face couldn't possibly be fake.

So... did I find the wrong mission objective and misunderstood it?

Baili Tusu suddenly remembered that when the two first met, the fish demon asked him who was instigating him, and he didn't care at that time, but now that he thought about it, he was too reckless and acted rashly without investigating clearly.

Baili Tusu looked down at the fish demon's frowning brows, its pained and confused voice just now flashed in his mind, and suddenly he felt pity for it, as if the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

Once upon a time, I was like it. I was regarded as a different kind by all the brothers in the same school. I was isolated and hostile as a group. I could only live alone.

Therefore, at this moment, he can understand the feelings of the fish monster in front of him.

Baili Tu Su concentrated on the fish demon for a moment, then suddenly raised his hand and cast a healing circle around his body.

Originally, he thought that the fish demon was full of evil, so he didn't care about its life and death.

But now that he found that he had wronged it, and it was injured by his own hands, of course he had the responsibility to heal it.

With this in mind, Baili Tusu continuously input his mana into the healing circle.

However, he soon discovered that the magic circle didn't seem to have any obvious effect.

The fish demon's face was still as pale as paper, and his breathing was still weak and disordered.

Baili Tusu had no choice but to close the magic circle, then bent down to support the fish demon, put his hands on its chest to check the injury with spiritual power, only to find that the fish demon was damaged internally, and it seemed that some kind of demon in his body A mysterious spell with great damage to human beings, showing that he was seriously injured before the battle with himself.

As a member of the Combat Department, Baili Tusu was not very proficient in healing spells. When he encountered this situation, he was at a loss for a while.

He frowned and thought for a moment, and finally decided to try to get some money, and then went out to find a pharmacy to buy some soothing pain relief powder.

This medicine is very effective in treating internal injuries, but of course the relative price is also very expensive.

Just how to get the money is a problem.

Baili Shaoxia was born in Tianyong City, and his three views could not be more upright. Things like robbery to obtain property illegally are absolutely disdainful to do, even if it is robbing the rich and helping the poor.

However, he couldn't think of any way to make money other than doing chivalrous rankings.

However, the fish demon was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread. Clearly, doing tasks on the chivalrous list was far from being able to quench his thirst.

In the end, Baili Tusu had no choice but to reach out to the fish demon on the ground.

Since it is to buy medicine to treat its injuries, it is only natural to use its money.

Thinking of this, Baili Shaoxia finally felt relieved.

However, after rummaging through the fish demon, Baili Tusu came to the conclusion that this fish demon was poorer than him.

He was about to give up trying to find another way, when his fingers suddenly touched a round hard object hidden in the fish demon's belt.

Baili Tusu hurriedly opened the belt, and sure enough, he saw that the belt had a sandwich.

He put his hand into the belt, and felt the warm but slightly cool touch with his fingers. It seemed to be some kind of jade, so he took out the hard object, and saw a green jade pendant lying in his palm.

The jade pendant is transparent in color and the carving is excellent, and the engraving on it is actually a dragon pattern, one can tell it is extraordinary at a glance, I don't know where the fish demon got it from.

But since he treasured it and hid it in the interlayer of his belt, it seems that this jade pendant is very important to it.

However, no matter how important this jade pendant is, it is something outside the body, and it cannot be more important than life.

For the current plan, I can only find a pawnshop to pawn the jade pendant first, and buy Shujindingtong powder for some money to save the life of the fish demon. Come and give it back to him.

With this in mind, Baili Tusu hurriedly resettled the fish demon, and then went out to look for a pawn shop.

It was dark at this time, but as long as the casino and the brothel were still open, the pawn shop would definitely not be closed.

Baili Tusu had seen a pawn shop in a certain street when he was walking on the street with the fish demon on his back, so he quickly found the pawn shop.

He handed the jade pendant to the shopkeeper of the pawnshop, and unexpectedly paid a high price of 1000 taels. Obviously, the price of the jade pendant did not stop there.

Baili Tusu took the banknote and found the pharmacy as quickly as possible, only kept 100 taels on him, and bought the Shujindingtong powder without any distress for the other 900 taels.

Then he returned to the ancestral hall, only to find that the fish demon was still asleep on the cold and wet ground.

Baili Tusu helped the fish demon up, and then poured all the Shujin Dingtong powder into his stomach without asking for money, then got up and walked out of the ancestral hall with the fish demon in his arms, planning to find an inn to settle it down first.
