On this day, the four of them fought each other in the morning, and in the afternoon they explained the characteristics of the scorpion monster to the soldiers. However, they also emphasized that the characteristics and attack methods of the scorpion monster were all summarized by them based on their own experience, and were very one-sided.
However, after the soldiers who watched the battle in the morning spread the word, the reputation of the four new instructors was already very high, and the soldiers who attended the lectures were quite serious and upright.
When they returned home in the evening, Dacheng had also returned, carrying four buckets of resin. They placed the resin in the main room of Lu Cai's courtyard and went to invite Wang Shu.
"The resin you asked for." Cai Lu looked up when he saw Wang Shu coming.
Wang Shu looked at the scattered wooden barrels on the ground, then raised her eyes to look at the five people in front of her and smiled: "Please wait outside the door for a moment, ——"
"Little sister, even without you, there is still your mother and Master Wang." Lu Cai didn't like her secretive attitude.
Wang Shu was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Cai to threaten her so directly.
Lu Cai raised his eyes and stared at Wang Shu. "I know you're worried that if I find out about this plan, you'll lose your value..." She looked away. "But I don't like beating around the bush. I've already met your conditions, so don't try to be shy and raise your price. It's boring."
Wang Shu couldn't help but clench her fists upon hearing this. She had to admit that she only dared to act so arrogantly with him because he was Lu Cai.
"If you continue to be petty, I will find a way to send you back to the Marquis." Lu Cai added slowly.
Wang Shu's eyes widened. If she had returned to the Marquis' mansion on the day she was abducted, the Marquis would have been able to put on a show of unwavering love. But now her parents had also been abducted and had been wandering around for so many days. Wouldn't it be courting death if she went back?
Even if she said that she did not reveal the secret of "Phoenix Tree Resin", the Marquis would not believe it!
Originally, she cooperated with the Marquis for the sake of wealth and honor. She was not greedy and did not ask for much. The two of them interacted with each other, and as time went by, they became more closely bound and began to confide in each other.
As for the Marquis, he also took his time and was not in a hurry to uncover Wang Shu's secrets. As long as Wang Shu could make up for the loss, he would keep her safe.
Now that this balance has been broken, she has been forced to board Lu Cai's pirate ship. She originally thought that at least Lu Cai was more ruthless than the Marquis, but now it seems that the two are just black livers and black gall.
"Sister...what do you mean?" Wang Shu laughed dryly.
Lu Cai glanced at her and said, "It's human nature for us to interact with each other. I don't like to flatter others unilaterally."
The others had been planning to leave, but seeing Lu Cai's gesture, they stopped in their tracks. Shi Rukui looked at Lu Cai and for the first time felt that this rough-and-tumble NPC had a cold, scumbag-like aura.
Wang Shu looked at Lu Cai in the same way. She stared at him for a long time and finally confirmed that Lu Cai was not trying to scare her.
Yes, I heard that Lu Cai could twist off a scorpion monster's head with one hand, and she could also lead a group of people to fight out the siege of the scorpion monsters in the capital, and she could even kick the Marquis into the pond without hesitation.
Finally lowering her head, Wang Shu smiled softly: "My sister is meddling in other people's business." She stood up and walked straight to the resin barrel without caring about anything else.
Several people slowly approached, and even Lu Cai couldn't help but stand up.
The resin of the Delonix regia, does this Delonix regia refer not to the tree species but to a mixture of several resins in a certain proportion?
They gathered around, watching Wang Shu's movements. Instead of the expected mixing, Wang Shu simply pulled out a small dagger and cut a line across her palm.
The crimson blood rolled down the girl's fair, delicate palm, and blood droplets fell on the pale yellow resin. Wang Shu skillfully picked up a large spoon on the side and stirred the wooden barrel a few times.
Wang Shu mixed her blood into each of the four wooden barrels. After she was done, she bandaged her palms lightly with a handkerchief.
"Blood?" Cai Lu looked puzzled and stared into the bucket. The bright red blood gradually melted into the resin.
"Phoenix tree, that's it." Wang Shu's expression was calm, but she was smiling. She looked up at Lu Cai, wearing a red cape, with a look of respect and obedience.
The Delonix tree was not the "Delonix tree" she knew... Lu Cai looked at the bright red color that spread, penetrated, and gradually merged with the resin. It was like a raging fire, and it really meant the rebirth of a phoenix.
Lu Cai raised his eyes and looked at Wang Shu: "Are any members of the Wang family acceptable?"
"Among the two or three generations of Wang family descendants, there will be a 'Phoenix Tree' bloodline." Wang Shu just smiled, as if to say, you see, even if we don't talk about the price, you can't do without me.
"Once the resin is made into amber, can it be used to repel insects?" Lu Cai asked.
Wang Shu explained, "It does have this effect. Sister just needs to find some workers who can work with amber. They can turn these four barrels of resin into pendants the size of copper coins. Hang them at the city gate or in front of or behind the house. They will have the effect of repelling insects."
Lu Cai didn't react, thinking silently, how could this dungeon have a conscience? Wang Shu's physique could be said to be a golden finger for players.
This luxurious experience made Lu Cai unbelievable.
"Rest well." Lu Cai looked at Wang Shu's bandaged hand and said, "Be careful with the wound."
Since it was none of her business, Wang Shu bowed and left.
Zhaohe lived here, so General Qi naturally arranged guards for her. When the little princess saw that Wang Shu was alone, she arranged guards to escort Wang Shu back.
"If these resins are made into pendants, can they drive away scorpion monsters?" Yue Xiaoyan inserted the whisk into the back of her waist belt and squatted down to look at the resin in the bucket.
Zhao Yan continued, "Lu Cai, should we arrange for someone to protect her?"
In this world, what does being able to drive away scorpion monsters mean? It means being invincible! This Wang Shu has become a treasure in the eyes of the players——
"If someone protects her all the time, it will attract attention..." Shi Rukui rejected the suggestion.
The little nun squatting beside the wooden barrel raised her head and said, "If she had a girl beside her, she wouldn't attract attention!"
Several people looked at Yue Xiaoyan's chubby face, seemingly puzzled.
Yue Xiaoyan stood up with a grin, pulled a card from the system, and holding it between her hands, she closed her eyes and made a few hand gestures. Finally, with a sharp shout, she tossed the card into the air and clapped her hands. If it weren't for the faint green glow between her eyebrows, she would have looked like a freeloader.
The card spun and slowly fell to the ground. At the moment when the paper lay flat on the ground, a dazzling light flashed, and a peach blossom figure swayed and appeared in front of everyone.
Lu Cai opened his eyes wide, and then he remembered that Yue Xiaoyan had received a ghost named "Chun Ling" in the hotel copy.
The ghost pulled out of the dungeon by the ghost is no longer the same character in the dungeon. It is more like a data copy, originating from the dungeon ghost, but not the dungeon ghost. Instead, it is an independent entity, a prop that can be controlled by the player.
Chunling no longer wore the cheongsam that outlined her exquisite figure, but instead wore a peach-colored skirt. The gorgeous clothes made her milky white skin flawless and dazzling. Her red lips and the peach blossom ornaments between her eyebrows complemented each other, adding a touch of delicateness to her.
Although Zhao Yan was a player, he had never seen Chun Ling before. He was startled and stared wide-eyed, stuttering a little: "This...this..."
Zhao He was also surprised, but before she could express her feelings, she heard Zhao Yan's stuttering words and became unhappy. She looked at the bright and charming woman, feeling a little hesitant.
Chun Ling had just become a ghost descender and left the origin instance again, needing to rest. Today was her first time setting foot in another instance, and she found everything interesting.
When his eyes passed over Zhao Yan and Zhao He, and finally landed on the red cloak, his watery eyes were filled with interest: "There are new friends——"
Yue Xiaoyan's eyes were fixed on Chunling's clothes. She had spent a lot of points on the outfit for the ghost. Chunling loved beauty and could do without anything, but clothes and cosmetics were absolutely indispensable...
Yue Xiaoyan felt that her already precarious points were becoming even more difficult to maintain.
I was so worried that my heart and wallet were aching.
Lu Cai's gaze fell on Chun Ling's lively eyes, and he couldn't help but smile: "You are getting more and more beautiful!"
Shi Rukui's mouth trembled at the side, and he thought that if Lu Cai was a man, he would definitely be a playboy, who was very good at coaxing girls and could say such flattering words so sincerely.
Chunling was stunned when she heard the voice. It sounded familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was.
Lu Cai raised his hand and pinched the brim of his cloak, revealing a pair of cunning and smiling eyes. Chunling exclaimed, "Ah!"
——
There was a lively and pretty girl by Wang Shu's side, which made Mr. Wang, who was seriously injured and recuperating, scratch his cheek every day. However, the little girl only talked to Wang Shu and did not take Mr. Wang and Mrs. Wang seriously.
That evening, Lu Cai had just returned from the south of Shiqiang Town and learned from Yue Xiaoyan what Chunling had done.
It turned out that Master Wang had taken the opportunity to show his goodwill, but Chunling ignored him, which immediately angered Master Wang. The audacious man even tried to force himself on Chunling, but Chunling kicked him into the yard and beat Master Wang violently in front of everyone in the yard.
Yue Xiaoyan was still not satisfied, saying, "That bastard! It's a good thing he didn't die!"
Lu Cai also frowned. She didn't want to keep Mr. Wang, but Madam Wang would never abandon Mr. Wang, and Wang Shu would definitely not abandon Madam Wang.
To be honest, this Mr. Wang has no shame and no heart. He used to have some savings, but now they are all gone...
What did Mrs. Wang want from him? Didn't she take a bath when she was old?
This Mr. Wang must be taught a lesson, otherwise he will still think this is his royal residence in the capital—
Just as they were thinking about it, the two of them had already walked into the yard, and saw Wang Shu standing in the yard waiting early, just like a few days ago, but with an unhappy look on her face, and Chunling in peach-colored clothes standing beside her.
Seeing the two return, Wang Shu stepped forward. She saluted Lu Cai and said, "I have already warned Dad that Miss Chunling is my sister's. Dad will not be so rude next time."
Seeing her grim expression, he had wanted to speak softly. But after hearing this, Lu Cai's voice turned cold: "If you're not one of my people, can Master Wang be so rude?"
Wang Shu's eyelashes trembled and she tugged at the handkerchief with her hands. She was also angry, but... thinking of her mother's pleading look, she couldn't bear to do it.
Lu Cai saw what Wang Shu was doing and was so angry that he wanted to pick up that Mr. Wang and throw him outside the city gate to feed the scorpions.
She took a long breath and finally calmed down her anger: "This is not the capital, and he is not a prince anymore. Let him behave himself. If he dares to disrespect women again, I will cut off his hands and feet-"
The evening glow fell on the yard, and the wind blew through the branches, shaking them gently and causing a few leaves to fall.
