Chapter 030 Jin丨Exclusive release by Jiang Wenxue

System: [The synchronization rate has actually increased.]

Xue Chen: [Immediate effect, the synchronization rate is really more effective than any medicine, my headache is gone!]

System: [Why did the synchronization rate increase? You just picked up a scabbard, didn't you say a word, and your character collapsed. It's fine that Lu Xiaofeng doesn't doubt you, but why did the synchronization rate increase?]

Lu Xiaofeng was taken advantage of by this blind boy because he was kneeling on the ground, touching and searching for the long sword with both hands, looking a little pitiful.

Pei Rui's aura was strong at that time, and he looked very cold, even colder than Ximen Chuxue.

But Lu Xiaofeng was not afraid of him at all, because he could see that the boy had difficulty in moving and needed someone to take care of him everywhere. Everyone could see that he looked tough but was actually weak. Perhaps he had suffered too many grievances, so he could only defend himself with a cold and hard shell.

No matter how well he pretended, his physical inconvenience could not be hidden. Lu Xiaofeng really wanted to help him, because if he let this stubborn boy stay there alone, who knows what would happen.

But now, how could Pei Rui still look like the one who walked cautiously and needed help?

Not only was his fragility and helplessness fake, but even his sharp edge seemed to be made up by Lu Xiaofeng himself!

[Of course it’s because he’s wearing the filter of a mentally retarded nuclear bomb. Whatever I do, he will think of it as a mentally retarded nuclear bomb, so the synchronization rate will naturally increase.] Xue Chen sighed softly: [But now this filter is still very thin, I have to find a way to deepen it.]

Pei Rui came to Lu Xiaofeng with a knife in his arms.

Lu Xiaofeng raised his voice slightly: "Do you still want me to lead the way for you?"

Pei Rui didn't seem to hear the question in his words. He didn't explain that he could walk, but still wanted Lu Xiaofeng's help.

He nodded silently.

The euphemistic social method that Lu Xiaofeng used to use was completely ineffective with Pei Rui. He could only change his approach and asked directly: "Since you can walk by yourself, why do you need me to lead the way?"

Pei Rui tilted his head and turned his ear to Lu Xiaofeng: "I didn't ask you to lead the way, you did it yourself."

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

To be honest, Pei Rui doesn't look like a fool at all.

He has a smart look, with eyebrows flying into his temples. Maybe because he is still young and his appearance has not fully grown, the outline of his eyes is between peony eyes and almond eyes, slightly rounder than ordinary peony eyes, and with those light-colored eyes, he looks cold and majestic.

The long scar on the right side of his face from the corner of his eye to his chin adds a bit of ferocity to him. He looks sophisticated and not as innocent and naive as his peers.

Lu Xiaofeng knew that one should not judge a person by appearance, but when facing this child, he always subconsciously raised his guard. Even when he asked the question just now to Pei Rui's cold face, Lu Xiaofeng felt uncomfortable.

"I said it, alas." Lu Xiaofeng came over and put his arm around Pei Rui's shoulders, moving closer to observe his facial expression, "Is what Xiao Houye said just now true? Are you the 'Xuan Yue Dao'? And you killed Xiao Houye's people?"

Xue Chen: [Did you hear that sigh? Pei Rui estimated that his CPU was about to burn out.]

System: [Why? Is there anything to think about?]

Xue Chen: [Study hard, this is the difference between you and a smart person. 】

System: [……]

Pei Rui’s voice was also clear and cold: “I don’t know.”

How is this possible!

Lu Xiaofeng’s first reaction was that Pei Rui didn’t want to talk about this. He controlled his thoughts with difficulty. He repeatedly recalled the scene when he faced Fang Yingkan... Is it possible that Pei Rui deliberately pretended to be slow to react in front of Fang Yingkan? Pei Rui

seemed a little puzzled, and said slowly: “I have heard of Xuan Yue Dao, but I have never seen him. I don’t know any young marquis. Some time ago, I don’t know what happened, and suddenly someone wanted to kill me.

“I should have hit him, but he came back a few days later, as if he couldn’t be killed. It turned out that they were not the same person. If the young marquis hadn’t told me the truth, I would still be in the dark. "

Lu Xiaofeng was hesitant to speak.

Pei Rui: "Why does the young marquis want revenge on me? Isn't he still alive?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

Is this something that ordinary people can pretend? Huh?

[Set synchronization rate +1, current vest synchronization rate 31%, 2 skill points can be used.] System, [Is it too much acting?]

[Don't worry about it, I know what I'm doing. Don't save the skill points, upgrade your hearing.]

Lu Xiaofeng was silent for a long time. Pei Rui reached out to touch him and touched something furry. He was a little confused for a moment, and touched nearby: "Is this your mouth? Why is there a caterpillar on it?"

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't bear it anymore: "This is not a caterpillar! This is my beard!"

Pei Rui said calmly, "But why are there two? "

Lu Xiaofeng: "Because I left two."

"Yeah." Pei Rui withdrew his hand, "You are shorter than I thought."

Lu Xiaofeng: "How am I short? Everyone in the world knows that Lu Xiaofeng is a jade tree in the wind. I am not short at all!"

Pei Rui still looked indifferent, but the movement of slightly tilting his head revealed a bit of confusion. He asked sincerely: "But you are almost as tall as me, and I am only sixteen. How old are you?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "...Or you'd better stop talking. "

Pei Rui's eyes widened, and his blurred pupils looked somewhere unknown. He nodded, looking somewhat obedient.

-Gong

Jiu was riding a horse carrying Xie Heng and galloping wildly. The horse suddenly tripped and fell forward. Gong Jiu loosened the reins, hugged Xie Heng, turned around and dismounted. He looked around vigilantly, but did not see anyone ambushing.

The horse was already foaming at the mouth and was almost dying of exhaustion.

Xie Heng sighed, "I told you a long time ago to ride slower, but you didn't listen."

Gong Jiu had plenty of money, so he said indifferently, "Just buy another one in the next town." "

Xie Heng's feet were on the ground. He felt like he was suspended in mid-air because he had no feeling and no strength. He held on to Gong Jiu's arm tightly to avoid falling.

He laughed at himself and said, "You're going to carry me to the next town?"

Gong Jiu: "Or else?"

Xie Heng pursed his lips and said, "Sit down and rest for a while. Give the horse some water and see if it can slow down."

The noble Prince of Taiping followed his instructions silently. He gave the horse water, pulled weeds, fed the horse, and after taking care of the horse, he got some firewood nearby. Because he was not good at finding his way, Xie Heng did not dare to let him walk too far, and the firewood he found was not much.

Xie Heng rubbed over to the horse, grabbed the package on the sack, and took out some food from it.

This was the meal that Gong Jiu bought himself when he passed through the town during the day.

At that time, Xie Heng was outside the shop, waiting on horseback. He saw his brother's shopping process from a distance, which really opened his eyes.

This spendthrift doesn't know how to count. He packed a few dishes and some steamed buns, and directly spent a whole ingot of gold.

A full fifty taels of gold!

The rich and powerful may be able to narrow the class gap a little by spending money like this, but they are just on the move!

The money in your hand is all gold, and your purchasing power is very strong, but it adds up to a total of ten ingots. How many days can you spend it like this?

No wonder Lu Xiaofeng in the original novel cheated the stupid brother out of ingots of gold.

Today Xie Heng finally saw that he really spends money like water.

Xie Heng took out a steamed bun and a smoked fish, and slowly put them into his mouth.

Over there, Gong Jiu finished cleaning the branches and leaves, picked up another clean water bag, opened the stopper, and poured the water into his hands.

Xie Heng didn't react, lowered his head and continued to eat.

System: [Are you not angry?]

Xue Chen: [It's not the first day I know he has a mysophobia. He even threw away the gold. What's this little bit of water?]

Gong Jiu washed his hands, took out a clean white handkerchief from the package, dried his hands, and threw the handkerchief away.

He stood by the fire: "How many days will it take to get there?"

Xie Heng had never been here before. He could only identify the direction by relying on the boundary markers and landmarks in the towns along the way. Occasionally, when he passed by a busy street market, he would extract the information he wanted from the words of passers-by and determine the correct road.

But this place is too remote, and it has been a long time since he arrived at the next town or post station. It is difficult for Xie Heng to determine which way to go.

Gong Jiu was still waiting for his answer.

He was a little far away from Xie Heng, and seemed to be enduring something. He exuded a cruelty that made Xie Heng feel a little uneasy.

Xue Chen: [You have a stargazing skill, right?]

System: [Yes, but this skill is generally useless. The upper limit of the martial arts world is here. You are not a fairy hero.]

Xue Chen: [All points. 】

System: 【Clicking this is useless.】

Xue Chen: 【Click it if I tell you to. If you mess it up, it's my fault.】

After investing ten skill points, [Stargazing] was upgraded to level 4.

This skill actually belongs to the category of astronomy. By observing the starry sky, the twenty-four solar terms, the twelve hours, etc. are determined. It is closely related to farming, so it is particularly important.

[Stargazing] is not only about observing, but also about calculating the position and rotation cycle of the stars in the sky, observing their changes, and predicting good and bad luck and the future. The

skill that best matches this skill is actually not [Alchemy], but [Arithmetic].

To put it bluntly, divination is probability. Combining these two skills, combined with the known plot, the accuracy of stargazing and divination will soar, and it may be possible to reach the realm of "planning in the tent and winning thousands of miles away".

Being able to figure out everything in the world while sitting in a wheelchair, the value of Xie Heng's creations has skyrocketed. Even a psychopath has to be respectful to him.

Xie Heng quickly identified the location and looked at Gong Jiu: "Three days."

Gong Jiu nodded: "Then wait another three days."

Xie Heng: "Actually, you don't have to act like this to scare me. I'm not afraid of you."

System: [Really? I don't believe it.]

[If you keep acting weird, I'll put you in a small dark room.] Xue Chen threatened it, [Didn't I just mention my brother's great achievements a few days ago? He can stay at the bottom of the sea for a day and a night, and he can also be put in a coffin and buried underground for four or five days. This super endurance is enough to make him endure it when he feels itchy and pretend nothing has happened. 】

However, if things get started, all desires will rush out like a flood, and Gong Jiu's rationality will collapse, that's another story.

System: [Yes, no wonder you said before that Gong Jiu can definitely endure it when he is sick. 】

Gong Jiu raised his eyebrows: "If that's the case, why do you stay away from me every time I have an attack and never help me?"

Xie Heng: "Like I said, I will strive for what I want, and I don't want what I don't want, no matter how good it is. So if there is something I don't want to do, even if someone puts a knife to my neck and forces me to do it, I won't do it."

Gong Jiu: "Why don't you want to?"

Xie Heng: "Not everything has a reason, not everything has a reason. Willing means not willing. "

Gong Jiu stared at him for a while: "Sometimes I really envy you."

Xie Heng: "Envy me?"

Gong Jiu: "Although you are a cripple, you have always lived very clearly, know what you want, and live more freely than most people in this world."

Xie Heng smiled and said: "This sounds familiar."

On the day of leaving the Nameless Island, Gong Jiu fell ill on the boat. After packing himself up, he went to find Xie Heng. The two had such a conversation on the deck.

At that time, Xie Heng said that Gong Jiu was very pitiful, and Gong Jiu said that he lived more freely than most people in the world.

But now it's the other way around.

Xue Chen was very proud: [This is all my credit!]

System: [I don't understand.]

Xue Chen: [Use your little head. The original owner had a very good relationship with his younger brother, but he was not aware of the things his younger brother did behind his back. It was the same with or without him. It has only been a short time since I came here, but my brother has already had such ideological awakening. In the original book, he never reflected on it until his death. All this is my credit! 】

The system complimented him: [You are amazing! 】

Gong Jiu looked at the horse next to him, afraid that it would not be able to recover for several days, so he simply released it.

He threw the package to Xie Heng: "Since we only have three days to reach the dock, let's set off now. If we keep going day and night, we will surely arrive soon."

Xie Heng took the package and found that most of the clothes inside had been thrown away by him, but there were only seven or eight gold bars left.

Gong Jiu paused, walked up to Xie Heng, took his arm, put it on his shoulder, and held his waist with his other hand, pulled him up, and then exerted a little force, and Xie Heng lay on his back.

Xie Heng knew that he had a strong endurance and would definitely succumb to reality and hurry on his way by holding or carrying him.

When this really happened, he would still be moved.

After all, his brother's chest was so warm.

Xie Heng softened his eyebrows: "Am I heavy?"

Gong Jiu had a grim expression and looked straight ahead. After hearing his words, he replied coldly: "The few pounds of meat on your body are not even as heavy as a wild dog."

Xue Chen: [Damn it! 】

System: [Envy...]

Xue Chen: [??? Are you both sick?]

-Wo

Yun Lou is a famous restaurant.

The rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, the moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Zhuyeqing brewed by the owner are all excellent. Even the palace would send people to buy them and send them to the palace as soon as possible for the nobles to taste.

It is precisely because of this that Wo Yun Lou has become more famous. There are countless guests who want to eat here. For this reason, the boss can only set a threshold. You must make an appointment in advance and come at a chosen time to eat.

The restaurant, where others may not be able to eat even if they squeeze their heads, has reserved a seat for Lu Xiaofeng.

Regardless of whether Lu Xiaofeng has heard from him or not, the boss of Wo Yun Lou will reserve a seat for him every Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, and prepare delicious rice dumplings or moon cakes, as well as other meals. The Zhuyeqing brewed by the boss himself is indispensable.

Now it is not yet Mid-Autumn Festival, and Wo Yun Lou has not started the moon cake business, but Lu Xiaofeng has come.

With him came a cold-blooded boy in black clothes, blind, and holding a long knife.

The boy looked very difficult to mess with. The waiter of the restaurant was frightened at the first sight of him, and hesitated whether to ask this guest who did not have a reservation to leave.

Before he could make up his mind, Lu Xiaofeng grabbed his arm that did not hold the knife and dragged him in.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and asked, "Where is your boss?"

The waiter said, "The boss is cooking in the back kitchen. Uncle Lu, please wait a moment. I will go and inform the boss that you are here."

He gave Lu Xiaofeng a subtle look, asking if Lu Xiaofeng was being held hostage by the boy.

Lu Xiaofeng was confused and didn't realize what the waiter was thinking: "He cooks in person? That's great. I just happened to pass by and came here to eat. Tell him not to call me and make the meal quickly. I want to invite this kid to taste his cooking skills."

"Okay, please go upstairs." The waiter bowed.

He felt that there was a lot of mystery in these words, so he told the boss and let the boss decide for himself.

Although Pei Rui's [Intuition] is only level 3 now, his internal strength is deep, and with the mutual addition, his perception of the outside world is particularly sharp.

Lu Xiaofeng was about to take him upstairs, but failed to pull the boy. He looked at Pei Rui in confusion.

Pei Rui tightly grasped the long knife, murderous intent, and lowered his head slightly. Although his lifeless eyes were looking down, there was an illusion of contempt for all living things.

Lu Xiaofeng: "What's wrong with you?"

Pei Rui: "They are looking at me."

Lu Xiaofeng digested part of his settings, and did not use his own thinking to guess the other party, and asked directly: "Looking at you?"

Pei Rui: "With malicious intentions, don't move here, wait for me to deal with the opponent first."

After speaking, he slowly turned around and looked at the diners in the lobby.

When Pei Rui first came in, his unusual aura really startled everyone, and they couldn't help but look at him sideways, and some of them looked at Lu Xiaofeng.

They didn't expect Pei Rui to react so violently, and actually want to kill all the diners in the room.

Lu Xiaofeng quickly held down the boy's hand holding the knife and dragged him upstairs: "You are wrong, they are just curious. Come upstairs with me, aren't you hungry? There are snacks upstairs."
