Chapter 140 Breakthrough!
Li Luo was startled.
Is there something missing?
Was her whereabouts exposed?
Lu Li explained:
"I sent Black Evil and White Evil to follow you, but you didn't notice it. You need to be more vigilant."
The girl lowered her head in annoyance after hearing this:
"I'm useless and let my benefactor down."
Lu Li grinned.
He thought that this little girl was definitely not vague about killing people, but why did she act like Lin Daiyu in front of him.
She was so fragile that people didn't even dare to say anything serious.
Lu Li smiled and comforted her:
"It's not that you are useless, just pay attention next time. After all, it's for your safety..."
Li Luo nodded seriously:
"Li Luo will remember this. If you are careless again next time, Li Luo is willing to pay his life to apologize!"
Lu Li: "..."
It seems that the more he comforted her, the more wrong it was.
Forget it,
let's build up enough sense of security for this little girl in the future...
Lu Li thought, and opened the data panel to contact Lin Tianxia.
With the [Soul-sucking Spores] as a factor, Zhang Xuan couldn't just kill him directly.
If he wanted to break the situation, Lu Li had to do it himself.
Time passed in a flash, and a few days passed.
That day, a mysterious vendor suddenly appeared at the door of Zhang Xuan's shelter.
He was wearing a mask and a black robe, and his identity was unclear.
He didn't say hello to anyone, but just spread a piece of rag and set up a stall not far from the door of the shelter.
There were not many things for sale, and they all looked like rags.
Some curious survivors came forward to ask, but they were scared away by the expensive price.
It felt like the black-robed man was not here to do business at all, but had other purposes.
The news soon reached Zhang Xuan's ears.
He had just finished talking with Zhao Mou, and heard that there was a black-robed man who was not sincere in doing business and set up a stall at the door, and he couldn't help but feel curious.
"Could it be the mysterious businessman mentioned in the ancient book?"
Although Zhang Xuan is not a direct descendant of the Zhao family, as Zhao Mou's right-hand man, he knows as many secrets as Zhao Jin.
This naturally includes the ancient secretary taken from the Lu family.
According to the records in the secretary, after the full recovery, a mysterious businessman will appear.
His personality is weird and his whereabouts are uncertain.
If you can successfully trade with him, you will get great benefits.
At present, the black-robed man who set up a stall at the entrance of the shelter seems to be very consistent with the description of the mysterious businessman in the ancient book.
"Take me to see."
Zhang Xuan raised his legs and stepped towards the door.
Before he took two steps, he suddenly thought of something and said to the person next to him:
"Change your coat to me..."
Mixed in the crowd, he came to the stall.
Zhang Xuan was so low-key that he seemed like an ordinary survivor.
No one who saw him would think that he was the leader who built the new shelter.
Zhang Xuan didn't rush to speak.
He planned to take a quick look at the goods on the stalls like other survivors who were watching the fun, and then start to ask questions.
But after just one glance, Zhang Xuan's sight was completely fixed on the stalls.
He saw a blood-red pendant.
"Isn't this the [Magic Crystal Pendant] of Xiaosong Chikun?!"
Zhang Xuan rubbed his eyes hard again, fearing that he had seen it wrong.
That's right.
That thing must be the [Magic Crystal Pendant]!
Is it a coincidence?
The mysterious merchant happened to have this item among the goods sold?
With doubts in his mind, Zhang Xuan pointed at the pendant and asked tentatively:
"How much is this thing?"
A hoarse voice came from under the hood of the black-robed man:
"10 fifth-level crystals, or healing items of perfect quality or above."
"Fifth-level crystals? Healing items of excellent quality or above?!"
Even though Zhang Xuan was mentally prepared, he was shocked by the black-robed man's lion-like offer.
It's just an excellent quality item, but the price is 10 fifth-level crystals?
You should know that at this stage, only lord creatures above level 25 can condense fifth-level crystals!
And you have to rely on luck.
As for the perfect quality healing items, they are rare among the rare ones!
It's just like what the survivors said, this black-robed man deliberately doesn't want to do business, and the price is ridiculously high.
However, Zhang Xuan was still calm on the surface despite the turmoil in his heart.
He didn't say any nonsense like "the things are too expensive" or "not worth the price at all".
Instead, he asked another question:
"Did you get this pendant from a woman?"
The black-robed man was silent for a long time, and answered without raising his head:
"So what if it is? So what if it is not?"
The survivors around him were all unhappy when they heard this, and they all said:
"Why are you like this? It's okay to sell things at a high price, but you can't even talk nicely?"
"Yes, I just asked you about the origin of this pendant, do you need to be so rude?"
Facing the aggressive atmosphere around him, the black-robed man became more impatient:
"If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't want to buy it, get out. Why are you talking so much nonsense!"
A simple sentence instantly aroused public anger.
The survivors gathered around the stall not only did not leave, but gathered more and more.
The black-robed man shrank his body, like a leopard ready to attack.
Zhang Xuan saw everything, and a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He had guessed the identity of the black-robed man.
Now, he only needed to do further verification.
Zhang Xuan took a step forward and stepped directly on the spread out rags.
"If you tell me the origin of this pendant, I will buy it for 10 fifth-level elemental crystals."
The man in black robe raised his head and stared at Zhang Xuan for a long time with a pair of dark eyes:
"I won't sell it."
Then, he quickly put away the goods on the stall and squeezed out of the crowd.
Looking at the black-robed man's leaving figure, Zhang Xuan finally couldn't hide the sneer on his face.
He guessed correctly.
The man in black robe is Lu Li!
"Find two smart people to keep an eye on him."
Zhang Xuanchong ordered to the people around him.
Now the survivors in the entire shelter are under the control of [Soul-Draining Spores], and to Zhang Xuan, they are like an arm in command.
Someone in the crowd soon left and chased in the direction of the man in black robe.
Zhang Xuan himself immediately called up the data panel and sent a message to Zhao Mou.
"Did you find any trace of Lu Li?"
Zhao Mou looked at the messages on the chat box with an uncertain expression on his face.
He recalled the three omens given by [Knowing the future when you see it].
What Zhang Xuan is currently doing in Yongcheng has caused the Lin family's refuge to exist in name only.
It just corresponds to the little ominous omen of "plot slowly, and the goal will be achieved".
It's just that the 'small loss' in the omen has not yet appeared.
Maybe it was because Zhang Xuan was so good at doing things that he avoided it?
If we follow this line of thinking and let Zhang Xuan act according to the bad omen, is it possible to avoid the ending of 'death of body and soul'?
Zhao Mou thought for a long time and slowly shook his head:
"No! My innate ability can't go wrong..."
"The third ominous omen does not contain any word of possibility, which means that the outcome will definitely be death!"
"Zhang Xuan must be reminded not to act hastily."
Zhang Xuan waited for a long time and finally waited for Zhao Mou's reply.
But the message in the chat box surprised him.
"What are you doing? You want me to stand still!"
