"Why are you asking this?" There was doubt in the drum's voice, but considering that Su Mu gave him a 50% discount, he still answered: "Generally speaking, as long as it is not a living thing, this gourd can absorb it."
Su Mu's eyes immediately lit up, and he asked, "Can magic weapons and spells also be absorbed?"
"Magic spells are not allowed, as they involve quantum theory and energy conversion, which are very complicated and difficult to handle. But magical tools are allowed, but the prerequisite is that the person using the magical tool must be stronger than my clone projection. This is because this gourd itself is not a magical tool. It is only because my clone projection is attached to it that it becomes a magical tool."
Su Mu was confused: Can this be related to quantum theory? Is it really "quantum theory in case of uncertainty"?
He was not surprised for too long, and immediately asked, "Can the talisman array also absorb?"
Gu replied: "In theory, it can be absorbed, but the specific operation depends on the scale, grade, power, etc. of the talisman array..."
Su Mu nodded to show that he understood.
To put it bluntly, it's still related to the projection of the drum's clone! As long as the things you want to absorb are not stronger than the projection of his clone, then there is no problem. If they are stronger, it will naturally be difficult to succeed.
Su Mu estimated that the strength of Gu's clone projection should be around level five or six. However, as Gu's strength recovered and the suppression of the Snow Mountain Fierce Land on him weakened, the strength of his clone projection would continue to rise!
"What exactly do you want to do by asking these questions?" Gu raised the previous question again.
Su Mu said seriously: "I would like to ask you for a favor..."
Although Gu was an alcoholic, he was not stupid. After hearing his words and considering the questions he had just raised, he immediately responded: "You want me to help absorb the opponent's magic equipment while you are fighting?"
"That's right!" Su Mu nodded.
"Hehe..." Gu laughed, but there was a hint of coldness in his laughter.
Although Su Ye, Cai Mao and Bi Yi Niao, who were inside and outside the yard, could not hear the sound of the drums, at this moment, they all felt a chilly air appearing out of nowhere and sweeping over them, making them shiver with cold.
Su Mu, who was facing the Eye of the Abyss, was struck by the most severe coldness, but he endured it. Not to mention shivering, even his expression and complexion did not change.
Fortunately, Gu did not really want to freeze Su Mu into an ice sculpture. After all, Su Mu was still useful to him, and he still had to rely on Su Mu to get games and wine from outside the cage.
After sneering, Gu said, "Don't think you can order me around just because you have an old man backing you up. You need to recognize your own identity. You are just a mortal, but I am a god! Do you think it's possible for a mortal to order a god to do things for him?"
You even sold your blood to mortals, what else is impossible?
Su Mu was under tremendous pressure and said, "I am not ordering you around. I am begging for your help, and I will pay you..."
Gu interrupted him and laughed disdainfully: "Remuneration? Haha, do I need your little reward?"
"When the time comes, you can choose between games and wine!"
“…”
The drum fell silent.
After a while, the cold air that shrouded the yard receded.
At the same time, Qing Lao and Xiong Da at the school gate, as well as the experts and leaders in various laboratories and research institutes, all breathed a sigh of relief.
If this cold air continued to condense and not dissipate, they would have to go and rescue people, which would most likely make Gu suspicious.
In the yard, the drum, which had been freed from the cold, hummed and said, "Human, don't try to be clever in front of me next time. God doesn't care about the little reward you give!" After a pause, he added, "Remember what you said. When the time comes, I will be able to choose between games and wine!"
Didn't you say you didn't care?
"No problem." Su Mu replied. On the surface he remained calm, but secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I have a question." Gu suddenly said, "Why don't you ask the gods you serve for help in this matter?"
Su Mu had already thought of an excuse: "If I trouble Him with everything, wouldn't it make me seem useless? What if I make Him unhappy and he no longer favors me?"
"Aren't you afraid of making me unhappy?" Gu asked.
You can't take your eyes off games and wine, how can you be dissatisfied?
"Although I have asked for your help, I believe that with your generosity, you will not get angry over such trivial matters."
Su Mu flattered him.
The drum was very happy to be beaten, and laughed: "You are right, I do have a big stomach. When I was in Zhongshan, I could eat thousands of cows in one meal!"
After making a joke, he said seriously: "Human, if you are not satisfied with the gods you serve now, I allow you to switch to my side, believe in me, and serve me as your master!"
Serve you as my Lord? You haven't even started drinking yet, how come you're so drunk?
Su Mu complained in his heart.
“It’s an honor to be valued by you.”
"Anything else? If not, I'm going to start tasting the wine. Don't rush to put the gourd into the dimension. Leave it outside first. Wait until I finish tasting the wine so I can give you my opinion in time."
"Yes, I am waiting for your tasting results. I hope that among these 10 bottles of wine, there will be one that suits your taste."
As soon as Su Mu finished speaking, he saw the eyes on the gourd disappear.
"Huh..." Su Mu let out a breath of foul air.
Su Ye poked his head out of the kitchen and asked, "Brother, is it over?"
Su Mu waved at her: "There is still the second half, you continue to stay in the kitchen."
In the dangerous area of the snowy mountains, in the huge ice layer, the drum wrapped in long dragon whiskers opened its mouth and uttered a spell.
The spell turned into golden light, covering Gu's body. His huge dragon-shaped body quickly shrank and finally turned into the appearance of a human man in his twenties.
If I don't transform into a human form, I won't even be able to taste the 10 bottles of wine...
The drum turned into a human shape, and with a wave of his hand, 10 bottles of wine appeared out of thin air in front of him.
He first opened a bottle of beer, and the foam spurted out, which scared him. He was in a panic and didn't know what to do. In the end, he could only open his mouth wider than his head and hold the entire beer bottle in his mouth. Then he gulped down the beer and the foam together.
After finishing, he spat out the bottle, frowned and shook his head, feeling not well and his stomach was a little bloated.
Then he took another bottle of white wine, drank it all in one gulp, but still felt unsatisfied. Then he drank red wine, yellow wine, foreign wine, etc…
In just a few minutes, Gu drank all 10 bottles of wine.
Although he was able to drink alcohol again after many years, Gu was not happy but disappointed.
Because these 10 bottles of wine, no matter what type or brand, were not to his taste, but he couldn't blame Su Mu.
In his opinion, Su Mu didn't know his taste and could only give him various kinds of wine to try. Moreover, Su Mu gave him a 50% discount on these 10 bottles of wine. He had done everything he could to the utmost!
Gu could never have imagined that the 50% discount was a trap set by Su Mu for him.
As the saying goes, "If you take something from someone, you will be grateful to him." After enjoying the 50% discount, the drummers would only think that Su Mu was a good person and that he really couldn't be blamed for this. Because even he himself didn't know what kind of wine he liked. The kinds of wine he used to drink had long disappeared in the long river of history.
You can only try one kind of wine at a time, slowly and slowly find it.
The drum quickly projected its own clone onto the gourd.
Su Mu had been waiting, and when he saw eyes appear on the gourd, he quickly cheered up.
At the same time, the sound of a drum rang in his ears: "Human, I have already drunk all the 10 bottles of wine you sent me. None of them suit my taste."
Although Su Mu had expected this, he still had to pretend to be surprised and embarrassed.
"None of the 10 kinds of wine suits your taste? What should I do then... How about I return the dragon's blood to you?"
His tactic of retreating to advance actually made Gu feel embarrassed, and he felt that this human was really honest.
"You don't have to return the dragon blood. After all, you can't be blamed for this. You don't know what kind of wine I like. Just take the 10 drops of blood. After all, our agreement is that you give me wine and I give you blood. Please continue to help me find other wines. Find more quickly and find more..."
Not only did Gu not blame Sumu, but he also comforted him with a few words. He was also afraid that Sumu would give up and not help him find wine.
Su Mu repeatedly assured: "I will do my best to find a wine that suits your taste as soon as possible!"
Gu was quite satisfied with Su Mu's attitude, and at the same time he did not forget to urge him on another matter: "Hurry up with the game. I'm almost bored to death inside the ice. The only thing I can do now is to watch the humans outside the ice busying around... But this feeling is really awkward."
Isn't it awkward to be studied by others?
Su Mu responded, "Don't worry, I have already started to improve your computer and mobile phone so that they can be used in extremely cold environments. I believe that it won't be long before we can see results."
Gu was very satisfied with this: "I like you more and more, you really don't want to consider becoming my believer?"
Su Mu smiled and didn't answer. Gu didn't continue the topic, and after urging him a few more times, he removed the clone projection.
Seeing the eyes on the gourd disappear, Su Mu immediately threw it into the space bracelet, then let out a long breath, completely relaxed, and shouted to Su Ye in the kitchen: "It's okay, you can come out now."
Su Ye came out of the kitchen and saw Su Mu slumped on the ground. He hurried forward to support him and asked worriedly, "Brother, are you okay?"
Su Mu waved his hand: "It's okay, just let me sit down and rest for a while."
Fighting with the projection of Gu's clone in reality is more exhausting than in a dream or illusion, especially since he has to act like "I have someone behind me, I'm not afraid of you", which is even more difficult.
He took out a spiritual pill and threw it into his mouth, then practiced the Toad-Fishing and Air-Swallowing Technique to absorb the spiritual energy in the pill. Only then did Su Mu's condition improve a little.
He did not report the matter to Wen Wubin because he knew that Wen Wubin must have noticed it, and it would be a bad idea to report it at this time.
Standing up, Su Mu took out a drop of dragon blood from the space bracelet, and then took out 10 portions of Jiao Blood Powder.
After mixing this drop of dragon blood into 10 portions of Jiao Blood Powder, he asked Amiya and Xiao Ai to boil water, ready to test the effect of the dragon blood.
