Chapter 210: The Stroke

When I returned to the side of the "Wild Lily" at an unprecedented speed, I realized that there was no dangerous scene I imagined. The only ones were just two weak women in a toad that almost couldn't even match the word "monster".

However, for women, this animal that looks very disgusting has a far more shocking power than the thousands of "flying Gu" before. This situation made me laugh and cry.

Before, I distinguished these three from other female knights in my heart. After all, they had the courage to enter the dark cave for adventure. But now, this only remaining image of "heroes" has been completely destroyed by them.

Shaking my head helplessly, I put away the "Blade of the Earth" in my hand, and turned it into an ice sculpture with my right hand towards the toad that caused the three women to scream. Then I said to them at the "Wild Lily" who was still hugging each other: "Okay, that toad has been killed by me, so don't worry anymore."

After hearing what I said, the boldest and most rational "Wild Lily" finally quietly raised her head and looked at the place where the toad was originally. What she saw was of course the toad that had turned into an ice sculpture. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in secret, and then she greeted the other two girls with a relaxed expression.

By the time the three of them completely returned to normal, I had lost interest in exploring the depths of the cave. In any case, this place was obviously a very rich gem mine. Not to mention the strange energy that exists in the "ruby" that cannot be used at present, the value of the "ruby" itself is already quite valuable; especially now that the jewelry stores in the system have disappeared one after another, its real value can definitely be calculated using "billion gold coins".

In this way, once this mineral is leaked, the dispute will probably be much more serious than I thought. Thinking of this, I thought in my mind. There are only five days left before the agreed time for me to enter the "Wilderness World" to explore. Even if I spend all these five days digging out "ruby", I will not achieve much results.

So, the only way is to temporarily cover up this place and deal with it after I come back. But before that, I have to say hello to the "Wild Lily" and the others. After all, this matter must be kept as confidential as possible, so the clue "ruby" must be temporarily stored.

He told his meaning that "wild lily" while tidying up his clothes. "wild lily" thought for a moment and said, "You make sense. I will ask my sisters to hand over the 'ruby' to you for safekeeping. However, in order to compensate us for losing another piece of jewelry, you must give us another piece of crystal jewelry."

"Uh, there is no problem." I can only say so. However, I really didn't expect that "Wild Lily" would be so smart. I had to work hard for them and pay a considerable price to cater to their preferences. It was so depressing. It seemed that when mining "ruby" in the future, I would have to add a few more zeros to my labor costs, marketing costs, "ruby" and other expenses, otherwise I would have treated myself badly.

Seeing the "Wild Lily" I promised readily, I compared the two women of "Wild Lily" behind "Wild Lily" a gesture that was better than the cave, and then walked out of the cave first. The two female knights who understood the meaning of "Wild Lily" nodded to me with a smile on their faces, then quickly followed behind "Wild Lily" and also left the cave, which made me, "Wild Lily", who was already extremely unhappy, even "Wild Lily" add many dark clouds to my heart.

When I got outside the cave, I didn't go to see the cheers of the female knights after hearing the good news announced by "Wild Lily". They stared at the not-so-large entrance of the cave, thinking in their hearts how to cover it up.

Of course, the formation is a good way. I will choose the most outstanding "Bagua Formation" in this regard. It is very outstanding in hiding the entrance of the cave and preventing outsiders from entering. However, before this, I still need to do one more job, which is to destroy the entrance of the cave. Then, even if someone lucky enough to destroy the formation and come to the cave, they will only see a mess of rocks.

Do it as soon as possible. After letting the "Wild Lily" and the others leave the cave more than a hundred meters, I climbed up the mountain wall and stopped about fifty meters. Then, I took out the "Ground Blade" from the "Canton Ring" and constantly created artificial mountain collapse incidents. Pieces of huge rocks fell down under the cutting of the "Ground Blade". Then, soon hidden the not-so-large entrance of the cave, covering up a large area around, and it would not make people think of the existence of a cave here.

After doing all this, I used the water-attributed heavenly "soul bead" to set up a "gospel array" in this area. After a while, the mountains in the eyes of "Wild Lily" were covered by countless green grass and trees, which made them stunned, and one of them drooled even more exaggeratedly.

I was extremely satisfied when I looked at the cave covered with trees, green grass and countless rocks. In this way, even if I left for a few months, it would be difficult for others to discover it unless the other party was looking for the cave with a clear purpose.

Besides, once the "Flying Gu" is refreshed from the system again or born, they will become the best free caretakers of the cave, which makes the cave's hiddenness even more.

Afterwards, things were very simple. I took a group of outstanding female knights back to "Pangu City". The heroic female knights sitting on the "unishinestone horse" attracted the single male players in "Pangu City". They stared at "Wild Lily" and seemed to be in a flash of fire; and when I looked at me, the worship of the past was no longer seen, and the cold and cold light replaced it made me laugh and cry when I discovered this.

Finally returned to "Longhuxuan". After arranging "Wild Lily" and his group in "Lin Family Restaurant", I returned to "Longhuxuan" alone and selected eighteen crystal necklaces and rings from the locker. Of course, that style definitely meets the requirements of "Wild Lily" and others (before returning to "Pangu City", "Wild Lily" has already described everyone's requirements for jewelry on behalf of everyone).

After handing over the jewelry in his hand to "Wild Lily" and others, I served as a landlord to invite "Wild Lily" and the others to have a sumptuous lunch. As for the work of accompanying the seat, I completely threw it to the shopkeeper of the "Lin Family Restaurant" - Master Lin. Anyway, Master Lin has very few opportunities to take the spoon in person, unless it is specifically requested by the customer, but the cost is definitely not expensive. After all, Master Lin is the top chef in the top five of the "Oriental Continent".

After finishing everything and solving the lunch problem by myself, I hurriedly got off the line because it was already the time for supper in reality.

When I came to the hall, I saw Aunt Li's busy figure. Looking at Aunt Li's slightly bent back and the white hair on her temples, I felt a soreness in my heart, because this scene reminded me of my long-dead mother. Only then did I realize that Aunt Li and her mother are very similar. Of course, this similarity is in temperament, which contains the kindness and care for the children as a mother.

I thought that Aunt Li had been a nanny for me for more than a year, and in addition to cooking, she would also care about my life in other aspects. However, relatively speaking, I was very ignorant and still hired Aunt Li according to my previous salary. You should know that Aunt Li now has three jobs, busy morning and evening every day, just for her daughter who is in high school. You can imagine the hardships of her life.

Now I am very rich, and caring about the elders around me who also care about me is something I should do no matter how you say it is. So, when Aunt Li prepared the meal for me and was about to leave, I kept her.

"Auntie Li, you've been cooking for me for more than a year, right?"

"Yes, in another month, it will be a year and a half." Aunt Li said a little, and looked at me with a nervous expression and said, "Xiao Sui, you don't want a nanny anymore, right? If I don't do anything well, just say it, I will definitely change it!"

With an excited expression, Aunt Li grabbed the hem of my clothes with trembling hands, and tears were already shining in her eyes; her body had already left the seat, and even had a tendency to kneel down.

Seeing this situation, I quickly grabbed Aunt Li's body and said repeatedly: "Aunt Li, this is not the case. Don't worry! I just want to give you a salary."

"Maintenance? Then don't you want to drive me away?" Although I had made it clear that this was not the case, Aunt Li still showed a puzzled look in her eyes, as if she didn't believe in this matter at all.

When Aunt Li sat down again, I spoke again: "Aunt Li, you have been cooking for me for almost a year and a half. I am very satisfied with the work you do, so I want to pay you a salary. After all, 600 yuan a month is still a little less."

"No, no, no." Before I finished speaking, Aunt Li stood up again and shook her hands, "This is not enough. 600 is already a lot. Besides, I have to take most of the leftovers for every meal I cook, but it saves a lot of money from my family, especially Niu Niu (the nickname of Aunt Li's daughter) no longer grows thin because of lack of nutrition. Xiao Sui, you are already very nice to my family, and I feel ashamed of the extra salary."

Aunt Li said this, and I was secretly embarrassed and blushed. Regarding leftovers, two months after Aunt Li came to help me cook, I saw Aunt Li's eyes showing a pity for me about the food I had not eaten. I thought of the community leader's statement about Aunt Li's family difficulties, and expressed that I hope Aunt Li would help me deal with the remaining food.

A week later, I increased my daily meal consumption and asked Aunt Li to enrich her daily meals, using this method to help Aunt Li a little bit. And it was also after that that Aunt Li's concern for me became that kind of heartfelt.

Although I had the idea of ​​helping Aunt Li at that time, I actually didn't do much of a big deal, and even almost forgot about it in the end. Now I feel embarrassed to hear Aunt Li mention it and regard it as a kind of good deed I have done.

"Don't, these are all small things." I immediately said, "This has nothing to do with other things. I will pay you a salary just because Aunt Li, your service is excellent. Moreover, we don't make this extra salary through the community, just treat it as a bonus for you."

If you pass the community and use it as a formal salary, then as the "XY Talent Service Center" to which Aunt Li belongs, you will draw a certain share, and the money you get in Aunt Li will be less than tens of yuan. Of course, I don't want to make the "XY Talent Service Center" richer with my kindness. To be honest, if it weren't for the two years of signing the contract before, I would probably bypass the "XY Talent Service Center" and talk to Aunt Li about salary issues.

Aunt Li, who understood the truth, became excited again, and tears filled my eyes. When I saw it, my nose was sour and I had an urge to cry. Finally, I seized the sourness in my eyes, so I handed the envelope prepared in my hand to Aunt Li, and then quickly turned around and entered my room. Because I was afraid that I would not be able to hold the tears in my eyes after a while.

Before closing the door, I seemed to have brought the extraordinary hearing in the game, and clearly heard the word "one thousand" in Aunt Li's mouth. Yes, in addition to the basic salary of 600 yuan, I prepared a monthly bonus of 1,000 yuan for Aunt Li.

Although the income of 1,600 yuan is not much in this city, because the consumption in the city is higher than that in other places, families with better income may have more than this monthly expenses. But this amount is very generous for Aunt Li and the mother and daughter, and they no longer have to work hard to work in three jobs. Even if her daughter’s tuition is only a little saving, it should be enough.

Just as I was about to check some game information online, the doorbell suddenly rang. I was puzzled. Who came to the door at this time? In fact, although I know a lot of people in this city, I usually have a few people who keep dating. Liu Jia, Zhang Lan, Aunt Li and Master Lin are the four people I have contacted the most.

For the latter two, Aunt Li is here; as for Master Lin, except for meeting once a month, he usually meets in games. For the first two, if there is something to do, he will call him in advance. Of course, it is not ruled out that the two of them want to give me a surprise.

Sure enough, I vaguely heard the name "Ms. Liu" mentioned by Aunt Li, which was Liu Jia. I quickly stood up from my personal computer, came to the hall, and saw Liu Jia, who looked extremely beautiful in a cheongsam.

"Liu Jia, why are you here? Don't say hello to me in advance." I welcomed Liu Jia into the room, and glanced at the corner of my eyes to the hint of comforting smile on Aunt Li's mouth.

"Why are you so free to see me today?" I entered the room and hugged the beauty beside me and asked softly in Liu Jia's ear.

Although I immediately resumed my previous movements, Liu Jia still felt them, and stood up from my arms and turned to face me, with a sweet smile on her face, but her beautiful eyes stared at me and asked, "What's wrong? I feel that you seem to be very nervous now, and your heart beat faster. Could it be that you are really hiding from me that you are 'hiding the beauty in the golden house'? Hehe, why not say it out and let me see how the woman our Mr. Mo Shui likes is outstanding!"

"Uh, Liu Jia, don't joke. With an outstanding girlfriend like you, how could I like other women? Besides, you didn't know what kind of person I am on the first day. Don't you know what kind of person I am?" My face still maintained a smile, but my heart beat faster still did not slow down.

And my right hand that reached out to Liu Jia was even more slapped away by her, which made me feel uneasy. Could it be that Liu Jia already knew about Zhang Lan's existence? It's impossible. Logically speaking, if she knew about Zhang Lan's existence, then Liu Jia would never take me to see her parents and grandfather.

So if I really know, it is only possible after that. However, I clearly remember that in just a few days after that, I had never met Zhang Lan at all, and even the call was only in the game. Therefore, there is absolutely no possibility that Liu Jia would discover that Zhang Lan exists.

So, I still plucked up the courage to say, "Liu Jia, what's wrong with you? Or is there something I've done wrong and made you angry?" My eyes were sincere, but Liu Jia was still staring at me with big eyes, looking forward to my answer, so that I knew there was something wrong.

Although I still don’t know where the flaws were revealed, Liu Jia must have known that Zhang Lan existed. In fact, since the day when she still maintained her relationship with Zhang Lan, I knew that this matter would always be misleading. However, I didn’t expect that this day would come so quickly!

Knowing that things were a foregone conclusion, I sat down slowly and told me about my relationship with Zhang Lan word by word. From my unexpected encounter with Zhang Lan to everything that happened today, I said in detail.

I lowered my head and said these things like an endorsement. I didn't dare to look at Liu Jia's eyes at all, because I didn't have the courage to face the silent questioning that was now contained in the eyes that used to be tender and sweet. Facing that look, my only feeling was shame.

After saying that, Liu Jia didn't say anything for a long time. After waiting for a long time, I heard two words: "Is it over?"

"Uh, it's over." Although I was surprised by the tone that Liu Jia said seemed to listen to the story and wanted to listen to the sequel, I still answered immediately.

"It's similar to what I know!" Liu Jia said calmly.

"What--" I raised my head and looked at Liu Jia with a calm face. I felt an incredible feeling in my heart. It turned out that Liu Jia had known about the matter between me and Zhang Lan for a long time, and I could learn more from the word "almost".

The Liu family is one of the major families in the city. In this city, both the official and the business community have great influence, and is closely related to the underworld that has almost completely moved into the underground. The last time Liu Jia almost had an accident was completely unexpected. Firstly, it was because the other party was a junior in the province, and secondly, the underworld figures who were directly responsible for this matter only saw Liu Jia's beauty, but did not know what Liu Jia had.

But afterwards, these people did not avoid punishment because they did not know this. Although no death happened, after that night, there were several patients with paralysis in the city's First People's Hospital. Two of them were amputated at high positions and lost their ability to move. The other one lost both hands. The last one was the small leader who was directly responsible for helping the son who wanted to get Liu Jia fainted was discovered to have an infectious disease like "Aids", and his whole body immune function was completely lost and he was in pain every day.

This shows how powerful Liu Jia is. As I deepened my contact with Liu Jia, I also learned about the situation of each member of the Liu family.

Liu Ming, Liu Jia's cousin, is also the only son of Liu Jia's second uncle. He is very upright and has excellent abilities. He is currently the squadron leader of the city's transportation brigade, but according to Liu Jia's statement, it is just a process of experience. I believe that he will be promoted to brigade leader soon, and then to the section chief and director. Anyway, he has reserved a position for him in the police department.

With Liu Ming's current status, he is just an ordinary person in the entire Liu family. From Liu Ming, it can be seen that the Liu family is powerful, so it is no exaggeration to describe it by the word "rich family".

Such a family will never simply accept outsiders like me. The most likely measure is to find someone to investigate me, or even Liu Jia's uncle who fought for the inheritance directly. In this way, it would be difficult for Zhang Lan and not exposed.

I looked at Liu Jia, who was still calm, and had thousands of words in my heart to say it, but the end of the story was: "Liu Jia, let's break up."

"What--" Liu Jia screamed in surprise, her face immediately turned pale, her right index finger trembled at me, and her eyes were filled with deep pain, which made me feel heartbroken when I saw it.

I lowered my head again and said in a tone that I couldn't explain clearly, "Since Liu Jia, you have known about the matter between me and Zhang Lan, then you will know the current situation of Zhang Lan. After suffering such pain, the reason why Zhang Lan can live with peace of mind is that I am better to her. It is precisely because of this that I have never dared to explain it clearly to her. It is precisely because of this that I have pity and guilt to the current love from the beginning. So if I cut off my relationship with Zhang Lan, I am afraid that the only thing waiting for her is death."
