Chapter 157 Sky-peek Mirror
Xu Zhiwu exchanged a few sticky words with Gu Ran, then turned his head and smiled at Yu Yao, meaning that she was not allowed to make fun of him.
Of course Yu Yao wouldn't. She gave him a reassuring look, then retracted her gaze and no longer paid attention to them.
Seeing Xu Zhiwu and Gu Ran go to the kitchen together, Aunt Liang suddenly said in a low voice without thinking: "Tell me, why would someone..."
Yu Yao's eyes moved and she looked at Aunt Liang quickly.
Aunt Liang sighed and didn't want to say more.
"Never mind, I'll just let you laugh at me~"
"No, Aunt Liang."
Aunt Liang patted Yu Yao's hand and said with a smile: "I used to think it would be great if a good girl like you came to our family to be our daughter-in-law, but in the end...ah, it's our Zhiwu who is unlucky."
Aunt Liang said this, fearing that Yu Yao might feel disgusted, so she quickly changed the subject.
"Is there anything you want to eat? Aunt Liang will make it for you tonight."
"You know, I love to eat everything."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, then I will do it with confidence."
"Um."
......
Yu Yao helped Aunt Liang prepare dinner.
Although she is not good at cooking, she still has the basic hands-on skills to help out.
Besides, there is no reason to let the elders be busy while you rest outside.
Aunt Liang originally didn't allow it, but after persuading her a few times and seeing that Yu Yao refused to leave, she no longer insisted.
Instead, he said helplessly: "Okay, go peel the potatoes and I'll fry some potato chips later."
"Hmm?" Yu Yao lowered her eyes, looked at the potatoes that had been cut into strips in the basin, and fell silent.
......
The two of them made a simple dish of fried potato chips and ham, dried wild mushroom soup, steamed rice, and took out the stored salted duck.
These are all ingredients that are long-lasting and not prone to spoilage. Even so, it is a sumptuous meal that Aunt Liang and her friends are reluctant to eat often.
As the two of them interacted more, Yu Yao discovered that Aunt Liang was indeed a little forgetful.
I often take my knife and look for it again, putting salt in it again.
Even say the same sentence several times.
Yu Yao found it strange. After all, Aunt Liang was only in her fifties and was a person with supernatural powers, so such a problem shouldn't have happened to her.
But she couldn't find the reason because Aunt Liang was healthy and showed no signs of Alzheimer's.
This made her wonder and curious. Has Aunt Liang always had such a bad memory?
......
At dinner time, Gu Ran looked at the dishes on the table, and when he looked at Yu Yao again, his eyes had become even more profound.
During dinner, Yu Yao chatted a lot with Aunt Liang and Xu Zhiwu, and got a general idea of their journey.
Aunt Liang has the ability of space, and her family has a lot of inventory, so she lives a good life.
Even until now, they have not touched the supplies that Yu Yao asked them to prepare.
Both Xu Zhiwu and Gu Ran have awakened their special powers, and they have a relatively reliable teammate, so they were able to have a safe journey.
Xu Zhiwu has the dual abilities of wind and wood.
And Gu Ran has earth-related abilities.
Earth series......
It's not that she's suspicious.
But this earth element inevitably made her feel suspicious.
......
On the other side of the table, Gu Ran's eyes were always fixed on Yu Yao's face.
There was a mixture of jealousy and admiration in his eyes, and his light flickered, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, when no one spoke, she suddenly asked, "Yaoyao, you are so beautiful. Do you have a boyfriend?"
Yu Yao: “Ah…???”
Gu Ran laughed, "It seems not ~ Then there must be a lot of people chasing after her."
"......No."
Yu Yao shook her head regretfully, but Xu Zhiwu and Aunt Liang didn't quite believe it.
Aunt Liang is an experienced person. Maybe some of the young people in Yu Yao’s team don’t understand it, but how can she not understand it?
The look in that captain's eyes is not innocent!
Xu Zhiwu lowered his eyes and served Gu Ran a bowl of mushroom soup, interrupting what she was about to say.
"Try this soup and see if it tastes like something you've never had before."
Gu Ran smiled sweetly, "Are you stupid? Didn't Auntie do this a while ago? Have you forgotten?"
"Oh, I did forget. Don't you like drinking?"
"How is that possible? It's super delicious~"
Xu Zhiwu smiled indulgently, "Then drink it while it's hot, it will get cold soon."
"Uh-huh."
After Xu Zhiwu's interruption, Gu Ran finally stopped talking about this boring topic.
Aunt Liang and Xu Zhiwu naturally wouldn't talk about those messy things.
After asking Yu Yao some questions about what happened after the apocalypse, the dinner ended.
After dinner, the group cleaned up and chatted for a while.
Aunt Liang then took Yu Yao to the second floor, pointed to a room that had obviously just been cleaned up and said to Yu Yao:
"When we were cooking just now, Zhiwu helped you clean up a room. You can live here. The bedding and pillows are all new. Don't worry and sleep well. I'll be right next to you. Call me if you have any questions, okay?"
"Okay, good night, Aunt Liang."
"Good night, Yaoyao."
......
After Yu Yao returned to the room, out of habit, she first used the Sky-Covering Stone to check the entire room.
After making sure everything was alright, he set up a barrier around the entire room, then took off his coat and sat on the edge of the bed.
Although the time together was short.
But it is not difficult to see that there is a considerable conflict between Aunt Liang and Gu Ran.
Xu Zhiwu's attitude towards Gu Ran was also quite strange. He seemed to be doting on her, but there was no warmth in his eyes.
A weird couple.
Yu Yao didn't understand why they were like this.
I couldn’t figure it out, so I just went back to my space and took a shower.
Behind the space cabin, she built a bathroom using her spiritual power and collected building materials.
When it is inconvenient, you can go there to take a shower.
You can also take a hot spiritual spring bath and feel the spiritual spring slowly transforming your body while slowly increasing your experience.
Kill two birds with one stone!
......
After taking a shower, Yu Yao was about to absorb the crystal core to practice when she suddenly said "Huh?"
Chi Heng is here?
She hurried out of the space, opened the window and looked down.
Chi Heng was seen standing quietly outside the courtyard, wrapped in chaotic spiritual power.
No one noticed him except Yu Yao himself.
"Can I come in?" Chi Heng asked, looking at Yu Yao from a distance.
"certainly."
After Yu Yao responded, she quickly made way for the window.
Chi Heng chuckled and his wind-type spiritual power moved.
The man moved lightly towards the window and stood in front of Yu Yao.
Then, the tips of his ears turned red.
Yu Yao had just taken a shower and was only wearing a loose short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts. Her lower body was missing, and her pair of snow-white long legs were exposed, which was particularly eye-catching.
Chi Heng didn't know where to go for a moment.
Yu Yao didn't notice it either, she just went over to close the window and draw the curtains.
Then he turned around and asked.
"Why are you here?"
Chi Heng's Adam's apple slid slightly for a moment, and he tried to keep his voice normal.
"I got something and I want to give it to you."
After saying that, he took out a small ancient mirror the size of a palm out of thin air.
The antique little mirror is engraved with exquisite and complex patterns all around.
But there was no mirror in the middle of the mirror, only a light gray mist.
"This is?"
"Sky-peeping mirror."
Chi Heng handed the small mirror to Yu Yao and explained, "Didn't you say that you have limitations when exploring things around you? Now that Xiaoliu is not with you, I am worried that it will be inconvenient for you. If you get it, it should be able to solve this problem."
The Sky-Peeking Mirror has a restrained aura, and one can still feel its powerful force when holding it in the hand.
Even if it is not a divine weapon, it is a powerful magical weapon that is infinitely close to a divine weapon.
Yu Yao was completely stunned.
There are so many strange things in this world!
"Where did you get this...from?"
Chi Heng explained: "There is a trial tower in the Chaos Pearl, and each level you pass will have different rewards."
Sometimes it is the infusion of spiritual energy into the body, and sometimes it is the improvement of physical fitness.
Each time you pass the nine levels, you can get some practical items.
This is the reward for the ninth level.
He originally couldn't get past the ninth level, even though the reward was right before his eyes.
But since Yu Yao left, he left the team directly and entered the Trial Tower, fighting for an entire afternoon.
"Trial Tower?"
Chi Heng nodded, "Well, if you are interested, you can also give it a try."
"......"
You just say it out loud and invite others to go.
Is it really okay???
"Thank you... Boss."
Chi Heng frowned somewhat dissatisfiedly.
“You always say thank you to me.”
Yu Yao felt helpless. Why did they say such things?
"...It's polite."
Chi Heng looked at her eyes that seemed to have been washed by water, and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Too polite, just unfamiliar."
"......All right."
Her reaction was indifferent, and Chi Heng didn't feel disappointed. He just urged her, "Do you want to give it a try?"
"Oh, OK!"
They no longer need to feel too much psychological burden when giving gifts to each other.
She bit her fingertips and dripped blood to make the contract.
A few seconds later, the Sky-Seeing Mirror suddenly flashed with brilliant light and turned into a stream of light that penetrated into Yu Yao's brows.
What Chi Heng didn't know was that with the contract between Yu Yao and the Sky-peeking Mirror.
The Sky-peeping Mirror was automatically integrated with the map.
After the fusion is successful, as long as Yu Yao selects a point on the map, she can enlarge it into a complete picture.
You can see everything that is happening at that location and hear the sounds there.
She randomly chose a spot and saw a thief quietly taking another person's food bag.
She looked towards the gate of the base again and saw two staff members on night shift doing something shameful.
Moreover, the scope of the map has become larger, and the visible range has been extended to one hundred kilometers.
All living organisms within a range of ten kilometers can be detected.
This is outrageous! This is against the will of heaven!
