Chapter 20
Pei Xiao didn't come here specifically to seek death.

When Lilia's proprietress hesitated to give her the address of this person back then, of course she had considered the risk factor here, so why did she come here without any preparation?
Pei Xiao naturally came here with something that could cope with the poisonous gas and mist here, but looking at those small cracks in the space that flickered past and danced happily, Pei Xiao thought that she had no idea.

She was already mentally prepared, and she had a good understanding of the environment here before coming here, but Lilia, the proprietress, didn't mention these space cracks, so it seemed that she didn't have a deep understanding of this place.

Anyway, here it comes, there's no reason not to give it a try!

Pei Xiao took a deep breath, took out a small bottle that had been hanging around his neck and opened it, poured out a dark brown pill and threw it in his mouth, and took out the sunglasses given by Lilia's proprietress from his bag Putting on the same thing, the layers of fog in front of her eyes disappeared instantly.

These are not common goods that are everywhere, these equipments are only one piece, according to Lilia, she did a favor to the weirdo here, so that person gave her these things and promised that Lilia can come to find them when she needs help him once.

But now these things are cheaper, Pei Xiao.

"If you die, die!" She gritted her teeth and stepped into the area of ​​the fog.Sure enough, as Lilia said, even though he took the antidote and the fog in his vision was filtered by the sunglasses, he couldn't see at all, but once he stepped into such a place, his pores would still feel uncomfortable.

She felt as if she was walking in a kind of viscous liquid, and it was very difficult to move, and to avoid the space cracks that popped up suddenly to make trouble, Pei Xiao felt unprecedented difficulty.

What she didn't know was that on the other side of the same mist, two creatures she was familiar with were struggling like her, or worse than her, because they had no antidote pills and no special medicine. goggles.

The detoxification pill can guarantee that Pei Xiao will not be poisoned to death by the poisonous gas, but because of being in the poisonous gas for a long time, Pei Xiao gradually developed some symptoms of poisoning. Just when she felt dizzy, a very small crack in the space Quietly flashed behind her, but Pei Xiao was still unconscious.

"Get out of here!"

With a despondent roar, Pei Xiao raised his head in a daze and was surprised to see a black shadow flying towards him. She screamed and rolled to the ground.She was already dizzy, but after being hit like this, there was nothing in front of her eyes, and she passed out so simply.

When Pei Xiao woke up again, she knew that she was out of the range of the fog. The sticky pressure on her body was gone, and her whole body seemed a lot more relaxed. She frowned, recalling what happened before she passed out. matter.

"Hey, are you awake?"

For some reason, the voice that told him to go away heard before, hearing his question, Pei Xiao didn't feel that he was concerned about whether he woke up, but a feeling of gloating.

She forced herself to sit up, and found that she was lying directly on the ground, and not far in front of her, there was a dirty old man looking at her.

His hair and beard were all gray and tangled together in a mess, covering most of his face, leaving only a pair of mung bean-like eyes staring at Pei Xiao maliciously.

Pei Xiao felt goosebumps all over his body when he saw him, remembering the pounce after the sentence "Get away" before, she seemed to see a small crack in space from the corner of her eye just flashing past where she was standing, and she came out In a cold sweat, I was terrified.

"You saved me, thank you!"

In fact, Pei Xiao was already sure that this old man was the one he was looking for.There will be no one else in this place but him.But hearing Lilia's lady boss say that he has a weird temper, Pei Xiao was not sure how to treat him.

"Don't be hypocritical with me! Tell me, what are you doing here!" There was a light in the old man's eyes that Pei Xiao couldn't understand, and it never disappeared.

"I, I'm here to ask the old gentleman to teach..."

"Fart!" Pei Xiao's words were interrupted roughly. "There is nothing to teach! There is nothing to teach! Go back where you came from! Also, tell Lilia that little girl, since she chose to use this favor, there will be no more in the future, even if I don't agree Your request, I saved your life just now! So I don’t owe her anything in the future, old man, don’t come here again!”

The black line on Pei Xiao's face!

In fact, she was mentally prepared. Most hermits and masters are people with weird tempers and difficult to get along with. The old man's refusal was actually in her expectation, but she worked hard to come here, which is not so. It's easy to back off.

"Old man, here is a letter from Mrs. Lilia, why don't you take a look at it?"

Pei Xiao turned out the envelope, because the envelope had become crumpled due to all the hard work.She felt that it was disrespectful to others, so she quickly stroked the creases on the envelope vigorously, but when she let go of her hand, the letter actually flew up into the air and landed directly in the old man's hand.

Teleportation?Pei Xiao's eyes widened, his face full of envy.This old man looks like a master at first glance!

The old man glanced at Pei Xiao who was still sitting on the ground, smiled strangely twice and didn't speak anymore, but turned around and left with the letter.

Pei Xiao chased after him without even thinking about it, but she didn't expect that after walking two steps, her leg suddenly felt a sharp pain, she couldn't stand still and fell to the ground, only to hear the old man say without turning back, "One step closer Just break your leg!"

Pei Xiao watched his figure disappear among the trees in front of him, but he didn't catch up again.She believed that if she persisted in catching up, the old man would break her leg as he said.

She came here to learn how to protect herself, not to become a disabled person.

The night quietly shrouded, Pei Xiao had been in the same place for several hours, and the grumpy old man never came back after he left.

This place seems to be isolated from the world, there is no movement of birds or animals, Pei Xiao has no dry food in his backpack, and there is nothing to eat nearby, even if there is, she dare not walk around casually.

This is a dense forest with very luxuriant trees, eerie and terrifying.

Pei Xiao began to think seriously, if Lilia's letter didn't work, what would she do?There was only one antidote pill, so she couldn't turn her head and go out through the poisonous mist smoothly. Looking at the layer of black and blue on her arm, she knew that she had actually been poisoned.

Could it be that the end result is either poisoned or starved to death here?

At the same time, the strange old man had already returned to his hut.

"Damn! That damn girl Lilia is messing with me again!" He slapped the envelope on the table, and almost jumped up when he passed by the mirror hanging in the room.

"What the hell is this?"

I saw that the person in the mirror had white hair all over his face—beard, hair, and eyebrows were all tangled together, and his eyes were almost buried.He watched carefully for a long time and finally confirmed that "what the hell" was himself.

Another look at the calendar on the desk!

"It's been three full months! Damn!"

No wonder the little girl looked like she saw a ghost when she saw her!He struggled for a while, and finally took a razor or something to wash his face and shave.

After shaving the beard on his face and tidying his tangled hair, the strange old man changed drastically.

He looks only in his 30s, with long silky silver-white hair just above his shoulders, and a resolute face. Although his eyes are single eyelids and relatively small, the slightly raised corners of his eyes give him a strange smell. The strange thing is that such a somewhat resolute face paired with somewhat feminine eyes did not feel inharmonious at all.

The facial features are very beautiful, not the kind of feminine beauty, but a very aggressive masculine beauty.

This is exactly the shape of a middle-aged handsome uncle!There was no trace of the old man being blamed just now.
