Chapter 91: Life-saving grace, repaying with one's body 3



Thinking about Yang Sheng's previous evaluation of himself as kitsch, it was not surprising that he painted himself like this. Cheng Ye's eyes were complicated. He walked around, took a shower and left. He did not disturb the layout of the room at all. He even did not touch the two bath towels hanging side by side in the bathroom and the couple's toiletries on the washbasin.

666: "..." Is it because he doesn't want to destroy the layout, or is it because he hates it and doesn't want to touch it? There is a world of difference between the two!

It’s really hard to guess what Dayezi is thinking.

Thinking back to when he first arrived in this world, Daye would stare blankly at the horizon from time to time. If it were accompanied by a lyrical background, it could have been a 180-episode youth idol drama.

666 also felt a little distressed and even a little guilty.

If its power were stronger, if it could break through the barrier of the main god system, it would allow Big Leaf to stay in the apocalypse for a while longer.

666 sighed for a while, but didn't dare to say it out loud, for fear that it would make Daye feel even more sad.

Yang Sheng is gone forever. Now it only hopes that time and tasks can slowly erase Daye's memory and let this person completely disappear in the long river of history.

It really makes the system go bald.

Brie had prepared the jerky and brought it over, thoughtfully shaping it into long strips for his convenience.

In fact, Cheng Ye has no obsession with eating meat. In fact, he prefers vegetables and fruits to meat. However, this dried meat is salty and hard, so he can use it as a snack to grind his teeth when he is free.

He took out a piece of dried meat and put it in his mouth, then turned around to prepare water for his bath. Actually, he could have taken a bath in the space, but because he had been in the cave before, it would be a bit unreasonable to suddenly not take a bath. However, he still used spiritual spring water.

There are many problems with his body, and it needs to be cleansed and tempered. Last time, the dirt in his body was initially removed. The next step is to consolidate and refine his body. Otherwise, if he encounters a monster that he cannot deal with, he will be killed with a slap.

After improving his physical condition, Cheng Ye's body can absorb more energy. This rabbit is a low-level magical beast of the first level, and the energy in it is enough for him. He can feel the rich power sliding down his throat and flowing to every corner of his body after eating the dried meat.

Not only does it fill his body with strength, it can also repair his previous hidden injuries.

However, his physique is still too weak and he cannot eat too much at one time.

Cheng Ye held some dried meat in his mouth, tilted his head and hummed a song. He felt a slight pain in his back. He turned around and met Lei Xiu's complicated gaze. He swallowed the dried meat in two or three bites. "What's wrong?" Following Lei Xiu's gaze, Cheng Ye looked at the bag of dried meat on the table. "Are you hungry too?"

Lei Zheng was about to nod when he saw Cheng Ye had already turned around and said, "Well, well, there's some leftover meat and vegetables in the cupboard. I'll heat them up for you later."

Lei Xiu, who just wanted to finish the dried meat sent by his love rival: "..."

Cheng Ye turned around and saw Lei Xiu's persistent eyes. He felt a little embarrassed, but still refused: "I'm sorry, this is a little gift from Brother Buri. He worked hard to dry this little bit, and it's not much. You should just eat the meat."

A little thought from Brother Bri, a little thought, a thought!

Lei Xiu was struck by lightning, his eyes fixed on Cheng Ye's back. He felt that these words sounded so awkward and made people think too much.

If that big stupid bear were here, he would probably wake up laughing in his dreams.

It was a pity that Cheng Ye had never rejected someone so bluntly before. He felt even more embarrassed than the person being rejected. He was in extreme humiliation, with the tips of his ears turning red. He didn't dare to look Lei Xiu in the eye at all, and even avoided him intentionally or unintentionally all night.

After Cheng Ye heated up the food for Lei Xiu with his back to him, he went to bed immediately. Before going to bed, he did not forget to seal the bag of dried meat. He put the bag away properly and patted it twice before putting it into the cabinet, as if it were some valuable item.

Lei Xiu: “…” He looked at the sumptuous midnight snack in front of him as an apology, but he couldn’t eat it at all!

He picked up his chopsticks and plunged fiercely into the meat in his bowl, his eyes fierce. It wasn't that he couldn't eat meat because of his poor health, so he gave it to his neighbor. But what about the dried meat? Could it be that after drying, the energy is lost and it can be eaten?

Liar! Big liar!

He clearly wanted to give the monster to the bear to eat, so he used the excuse that he was injured.

Cheng Ye, you don’t really like that bear, no, you like Bri, right?

Lei Xiu subconsciously clenched his hands, and the chopsticks broke with a snap. The sound brought him back to his senses. Lei Xiu stared at the broken chopsticks in half for a while, and suddenly remembered that there were only a few bamboo chopsticks at home, and he had destroyed two of them. He was afraid that he would be scolded.

He didn't even have time to think that his energy had almost recovered, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to break two chopsticks with his bare hands.

Lei Xiu felt guilty and ate the food that Cheng Ye had prepared, which was obviously more than what he had eaten in the afternoon, mouthful by mouthful with a bitter face. He lay down with a full stomach... He would keep it a secret for tomorrow, and when he had the chance, he would definitely get a few new pairs of chopsticks!

He slept in front of Cheng Ye, thinking that if Cheng Ye was not so poor, he would not have such a good thing as lying with the sub-beast.

He stroked Cheng Ye's hair lovingly. It had been in very bad condition due to malnutrition. However, due to the fact that he had been drinking medicinal soup with him and occasionally eating some fruits, his originally dry and frizzy hair had softened, though it was still a little yellow.

Cheng Ye was in poor health and was reluctant to go out before, but now he was running around for himself, even going to the Warcraft Forest to hunt. He didn't believe that the rabbit committed suicide. Only the two big stupid bears next door would believe it. Cheng Ye must have set a trap and encountered a stupid one, so he got the prey by luck.

Cheng Ye has done so much for him. Lei Xiu clenched his fist. He must become stronger as soon as possible and let Cheng Ye live a good life!

After making the decision, Lei Xiu's originally frowned brows slowly relaxed.

He not only wants to repair Cheng Ye's body, but also wants to give Cheng Ye everything he can get.

Although he doesn't ask for anything in return, he would be so happy if Cheng Ye was willing to marry him.

Because the mine requires working twelve hours a day, Cheng Ye often collapses from exhaustion after returning home. Now that he knows some medicinal herbs and has learned how to pick them completely, he no longer goes to the mining area, but earns credit points by reselling simple medicinal herbs.

There is indeed food and drink in the portable space, but to survive in this world, you must use the monetary equivalent - credit points.

The things in the portable space are very good, whether they are utensils or living things.

Yang Sheng's belongings were probably all in the space. In addition, Yang Sheng's later status was probably not low. He was an expert at making money. He exchanged all his money for gold, a hard currency that could be consumed anywhere. Cheng Ye thought that if the crystal cores could be preserved in the space, Yang Sheng would definitely have left behind a lot of crystal cores and jade.

After all, this guy has always had the best reserved for himself.

But these things are of too good quality. It is impossible for such wealth to appear in such a backward place as this Stone Mining Star. I don’t have the ability to protect myself. Even if I change my image, they will find out sooner or later, which will affect my future freedom of movement, so I can’t sell them.

As for why he didn't buy or sell the livestock, these poultry, which grew up eating spiritual herbs and drinking spiritual water, had very pure energy in their bodies. Both their blood and meat were treasures. Cheng Ye naturally wouldn't sell them to others at a low price. He would not sell them at any price.

In this way, he could only continue to do odd jobs. Fortunately, digging medicinal herbs was much easier than mining. At least he didn't have to worry about being buried alive if he was unlucky.

Occasionally he would enter the hunting area and catch a few magical beasts. This time he would not eat them himself, but would disguise them and sell them directly. He could get credit points by selling meat and fur, and the remaining bones could be used to make soup to repair Lei's body. If anyone asked, he would say he bought them himself.

By the time time has passed, I should have more money in my hands, at least I can reduce the Engel coefficient, and in addition to food and drink, I can also buy other things with credit points.

Cheng Ye is quite satisfied with his current life. After all, he is poor, so he goes out to make a living early in the morning and goes back late at night to avoid too much contact with Lei Xiu.

Otherwise, he really couldn't stand the other person's gaze, and would get goose bumps all over his body if he stayed alone for a while. If he stayed alone for too long, Cheng Ye was afraid that he would not be able to control his hands... and wanted to fight with him.

After coming out, you can not only go into the space to laze around, but also turn a blind eye to it, which is so comfortable!

666: "Ye Zi, this world probably advocates the use of force. Why don't you strengthen your body to avoid going to the Central Planet with Lei Xiu and being bullied like the original owner?"

Cheng Ye raised an eyebrow: "Do you think I'm as stupid as the original owner? Driving myself into depression?"

You'll only drive others insane. However, 666 said worriedly, "Even if you have a sharp mind and someone's fists are strong, you won't be able to handle it. You can come up with a solution quickly, but what if your body can't hold out for help?"

Cheng Ye: "...Okay, how do we strengthen our bodies? Should we soak in more spiritual springs?"

666: "Of course not. It requires using energetic blood to refine the body. This method is widely circulated among cultivators and is highly praised. It can enhance the body's robustness and increase the chances of surviving the thunder tribulation. Otherwise, even if your cultivation level improves but your physical fitness can't keep up, you're likely to be struck to death by thunder."

Cheng Ye: “…”

666: "It's actually very simple. You put the energetic blood in a bathtub, then soak in it. By practicing the exercises, you absorb the essence and use it to refine your body. However, this method is very painful at first and lasts for quite a long time. Many people find it unbearable. But if it succeeds, even a mortal can become invulnerable to swords and guns."

It was so magical that before Cheng Ye could think carefully, 666 continued like a sales pitch: "Energetic blood is not difficult to obtain. The magical beasts here are all considered to have energy, and so are the poultry in your space. They all have spiritual energy. This energy is different from the pure spiritual energy of spiritual water that has not been transformed in living things. It can be used for body training."

666 is so concerned because it actually wants Cheng Ye to improve his strength quickly to avoid being bullied by the strong men with well-developed limbs here. The physique of the orcs in the world is really too unfair.

Besides, other people may feel pain when doing body training, but Daye has his own help, so the pain should be reduced a little. Daye is not a spoiled person, so he should be able to endure it.

So… 666 asked carefully, “How about this? If you want to practice, I’ll teach you the technique.”

Cheng Ye thought for a while and said: "Okay, I'm free anyway." Thinking back to when he rescued Lei Xiu, he couldn't even carry the person back and had to rely on tools. His small body was really embarrassing.

When he arrived at the hunting area, Cheng Ye did not stop at the edge this time, but walked a few steps inside. This was the outskirts of the hunting area. There were usually no magical beasts here, only a few first-level mutant rats and rabbits would occasionally pop out.

After a period of training with beast blood, Cheng Ye felt that the energy in his body was slowly rising. Not only his spirit, but also his strength was slowly becoming stronger. After all, he was a man, and he still enjoyed the feeling of being full of strength, so he couldn't wait to come out and try out his current abilities.

Under the guidance of 666, he walked to an open space and immediately locked onto a rabbit that was digging its nest.

This Warcraft rabbit is a mutated giant, and its size is almost as big as Cheng Ye.

The fluffy fur made it look even larger. Cheng Ye tilted his head and looked at it for a long time: "This blood is enough for me to use twice. I can sell some of the meat and take some back for Lei Xiu to eat."

666: "...Don't underestimate the enemy. This rabbit is very strong."

Thinking of the last time he controlled the rabbit and made it hit a tree to commit suicide, and the scene of the tree falling down with a loud bang, 666 shuddered.

Cheng Ye pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a cannon fodder who can only survive for one or two episodes. I must be a super villain who will explode only at the end of the progress bar!"

666: “…” You really dare to say that!

Cheng Ye was on full alert, mobilizing all his energy and concentrating it on his right hand. The moment the monster rushed over, he swung his fist and hit the monster's head with one punch. There were only a few clicks, and the monster fell down. It was unknown whether it was dead or fainted.

Cheng Ye was also stunned. After a long while, he said awkwardly, "It seems that body training is very useful."

666: "..." He clearly looked frail and could be easily pushed down, but I only thought that he had a weak constitution and was unsuccessful in his cultivation, so I kept reminding him to be careful before I attacked him, and even made up my mind to use mental attacks to assist him if he got into trouble.

What I didn’t expect was that... Ye Zi...had mutated.

Cheng Ye went forward to check and subconsciously patted his chest: "It's okay, he just fainted." If he was dead, it would be too serious and he would be embarrassed.

Cheng Ye subconsciously looked down at his body shape and felt that he had not eaten much recently.

666: "..." Not fat, and even with some meat on, it looks good. Being too thin is unhealthy.

Cheng Ye roughly estimated that the monster weighed about 50 to 60 kilograms and was a level one monster, so it could be sold for about 700 to 800 credit points.

In the future, the monster meat and big bones will continue to be sold. Cheng Ye plans to gradually get rid of the labels of incompetence and cowardice. After all, he now has the ability to protect himself and is not afraid of trouble.

If someone asks, just say that you accidentally ate a herb and became extremely powerful for no apparent reason. Anyway, this world is already magical, so a few more adventures are nothing. This way, you can get a few more magical beasts in the future, and improving your life is just around the corner.

During the day, Lei Zheng was circulating the energy in his body. During this period, Cheng Ye had been bringing monster meat home, saying that he bought it, but monster meat was not cheap, and he didn't know how many herbs he had to dig to exchange for so much.

However, the monster meat was rich in energy, and his body was gradually recovering in such a short time. He could even clearly feel that the previous hidden injuries in his body were slowly being repaired. There was a strange skill in his memory, which would operate autonomously when the energy in his body was abundant, awakening the abilities in his blood.

After practicing for a while, Lei Xiu opened his eyes and saw a large bowl of braised monster meat in front of him. It was prepared by Cheng Ye earlier.

He not only ate the monster meat he brought back himself, but also gave it to his neighbor. There were two people next door, while he was alone, so he always gave more to his neighbor than to himself.

Lei Xiu clenched his fists and stared at the braised monster meat intently.

He had tested Cheng Ye before and found that he was not completely without emotional intelligence. He would even blush and get shy when mentioning Big Bear, but when facing him, he only had awe.

Yes, there is envy and admiration for the strong, but there is absolutely no admiration for them.

Lei Xiu was extremely worried. Was he really going to lose to that big fool?

No, he can't, he likes this person and wants to be with this person.

Together forever.

He couldn't let anyone take his people away.

Lei Xiu made up his mind that no matter what the cost, he must get this person and never be separated from this person!

He stared at Cheng Ye who was busy in the corner with burning eyes.

Cheng Ye turned around as if sensing something, and happened to meet Lei Xiu's two sparkling eyes. He was startled, paused, and smiled shyly: "What's wrong?"

Lei Xiu: "It's okay." I just wanted to see you.

But Cheng Ye didn't seem to like his corny words, so he could only swallow the truth.

Cheng Ye pursed her lips and raised a light arc: "You stay at home later, I'll go out for a while."

Lei Xiu immediately asked: "Go out, it's almost evening, what are you going out for?"

The smile on Cheng Ye's face became even brighter: "It's okay, don't worry, I'm just going to visit Brother Buri."

"!" Lei Xiu's eyes widened. "Why are you going to his place?"

"I saw that Brother Burri's clothes were torn a few days ago. I've been busy these two days and haven't been able to take care of it. I'll go check it out now and help Gallon mend it as well." Cheng Ye washed his hands and rubbed his naked hands on the towel. "I might be back late tonight. If you can't stand it, go to bed early."

Lei Xiu's eyes suddenly turned resentful, and the aura around him was gloomy: "Come back later, why is it late?"

Cheng Ye smiled and said, "Every time he goes to Gallon, he comes to play with me for a while. It's okay, he will take me back." After saying that, he left without even looking back at her.

Lei Xiu's eyes were full of dissatisfaction. He even wanted to stop the man right now and keep him in the cave so that he couldn't see anyone, but he knew that he was not qualified.

To Cheng Ye, he was just a poor guy he rescued casually because he felt that he had a common problem. But Buri was someone who had supported each other for many years, so it was natural that it was obvious at a glance how close they were.

Lei Xiu understood all these principles, but he still tasted a sour taste.

He lay powerlessly on the bed, and suddenly felt that his high morale just now was obviously just a joke.

Of course, Cheng Ye did not take the initiative to go to Bri. Although he wanted to provoke Lei Xiu, he did not want to involve Bri. When Bri confessed to him before, he had rejected her decisively.

However, most orcs are simple-minded. Even if the deal fails, there is still righteousness. Now Bri treats Cheng Ye as his younger brother.

There are already few people here, and if they lose one more friend, they won't be able to survive, so Cheng Ye naturally wouldn't refuse to be a younger brother. He didn't come here to mend clothes for Bu Li, as that was what his future partner would do. He came here to give him the medicine powder.

Bri has good physical fitness and great strength, so he is also a good hand in the mine. If he has drugs, hunting will be even more powerful. It is not easy for him to take care of his younger brother alone, so Cheng Ye plans to help him.

After sending it over, Buri was very grateful to him and stuffed him with a lot of fruits, including red fruits and many other fruits that children like to eat. Cheng Ye liked them very much and ate several in a row before he remembered to go home.

During the time Cheng Ye was out, Lei Xiu basically did not move. When he heard footsteps at the door, he moved his ears and sat up.

"Brother Burri, you should go back soon. Garen will be scared if he is alone at home." Cheng Ye's voice was so soft and numb that people couldn't help but tremble when they heard it.

But this feeling was immediately ignored by him. A sense of vigilance as thick as a city wall rose in Lei Xiu's heart, and he even climbed up a little to hear more clearly.

Brie said with a smile, "He's old enough now. He'll have to go out to work soon."

Cheng Ye frowned: "He is so young, please don't hurt his body for a moment." He had no choice when he was young, and now he is weak and it is inconvenient for him to do anything, so he pays special attention to this aspect.

Bri shook his head. "He won't be sent to the mines. Just some light work."

Cheng Ye hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Bri, I do have a way to make money."

He said, "I used herbs to make a few traps on the edge of the Monster Forest. If I'm lucky these past couple of days, I might catch one or two monsters. Why don't you have Jialun go there every afternoon to deal with them and sell them in town? Even if they don't fetch a high price, they can still be eaten."

Bri immediately knew that this was some kind of affection from Cheng Ye. Although he knew he couldn't accept it, when he thought of Jialun's age, Bri was extremely grateful: "Ye Zi, you've helped me so much, I don't know what to say."

Cheng Ye said happily: "No need. You guys helped me so much in the past. If it weren't for Brother Burri's help, I would have died a long time ago. However, my ability to identify herbs is not strong, otherwise I could use this skill to catch more monsters."

Seeing him eager to try, Brie hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Kebi, it's too dangerous to go in there. You're a sub-female..."

Cheng Ye smiled bitterly and said, "In this place, they still talk about whether I'm a sub-female or not. Besides, my body..." He relaxed his frown, "Anyway, life is getting better and better. We should all be happy, right?"
