Li Xiaoxiao found it increasingly strange that there were so many sad things in this world, things that always evoked sympathy. Compared to the clean and ruthless slaughter of the apocalypse, there was endless despair here. It was as if there was hope in front of her, yet there was no hope at all. The light was right in front of her, but she couldn't grasp it.
Perhaps she should stand up and change the status quo, and save these poor people. Even in the apocalypse, she should establish a base to protect the weak. The people here should not be treated so ruthlessly.
She could certainly pay a proper visit to the Rongguo Mansion, but her ability to change clothes wasn't very strong. In her previous life, she was powerful enough to not need to make any disguises, but she wasn't that strong in this life.
They also need to find someone to properly learn the skill of disguise. According to the original book, the first person who is good at disguise is Wu Shiyao, and the second person is called the Thousand-Faced Jade Fox. This person's identity has not yet been revealed. He has been active in the capital for many years and there is no trace of him.
This was a difficult task. She sighed and had no choice but to buy a medical book. She could vaguely remember that in the original book, Wu Shiyao would make human skin masks for disguise. The human skin masks were made by boiling pig skin and adding fish materials that were steamed and boiled to make glue, which was then stuck to the human skin mask. She would then wear some human skin masks to disguise herself.
With a general idea in mind, Li Xiaoxiao began to put it into practice. The human skin mask was one of them. In magic, there are also spells that can change appearance and body shape, and she also needed to collect some of those.
There was even the reason for the inexplicable surge of spiritual energy on her body. Li Xiaoxiao thought carefully again that a person's spiritual energy would not suddenly appear unless there was a problem, and this problem might become her leverage.
There is never a free lunch in this world.
Perhaps there are still some secrets hidden in this body.
The more Li Xiaoxiao thought about it, the more clueless she felt.
Putting all these thoughts aside, she began preparing a human skin mask. This time, she would do it in her spatial dimension. For the first time ever, Li Xiaoxiao went into the forest and started hunting again. Perhaps she should also raise some wild boars in the spatial dimension, so that she could slaughter them and eat them when necessary.
Without hesitation, Li Xiaoxiao rushed into the forest. This mountain connects to Yunli County and is considered the outer edge of the forest. Within this forest, there is an inner perimeter, hundreds of kilometers away, where there are high-level magical beasts. Normally, she would never dare to go inside, but now she could take the risk.
If you spend five days walking deeper into the area, you'll find high-level magical beasts. It's a place that even villagers won't set foot in, and even experts from the Northern Wei Kingdom wouldn't dare to approach it easily.
As Li Xiaoxiao entered the forest, she caught wild boars while observing from the outside. Since this world allowed the existence of spiritual power, would there also be phoenixes and dragons? Wait, dragons... it seems that Qi Yu's family has some connection with dragons.
She ventured deeper into the forest, running for two days straight, and finally reached a certain point. The area was sparsely populated, but there were many medicinal herbs. This mountain range was called Starfall Forest. It was said that an immortal was once banished here and planted these spiritual herbs one by one in his space. Before he knew it, another day had passed. After harvesting all the spiritual herbs, he finally thought of solving the problem of locusts infesting his house.
However, this problem is difficult to solve, and even more difficult to eradicate. In the original book, the female protagonist used her own Shennong Medicine Cauldron to directly refine the insect-repelling mist, which killed most of the locusts. She simply could not have refined so many potions.
The only way is to introduce natural enemies. She only needs to collect some birds from all over the place. Since there are intelligent magical beasts, there may also be intelligent magical beasts among the locusts, and the advanced magical beasts will control everything.
She kept imagining all the possible scenarios, and the more she thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed.
As she walked back, she was lost in thought. It was late at night when she returned. She had been in the forest for five or six days. After a simple meal, she pulled Gui Sujuan into the dark room and said, “Do you remember what I told you before? His legs are already useless. It’s not like they were just broken. Many of his meridians are already necrotic. Even if you forcibly reconnect them with someone else’s legs, it probably wouldn’t work.”
"The only way is to hunt down an ape-like magical beast and graft its legs together. You should know that magical beasts have super strong fusion and healing abilities. You should think carefully about what I said last time. Once the magical beast's legs are transplanted, he will probably have to hide in front of people and change his name. You should know that there is no way in this world to restore the hands and feet of someone who was originally disabled."
"From now on, you must also learn to be strong and learn to protect him."
Li Xiaoxiao couldn't bear it and gave another word of advice. Gui Sujuan listened while digesting Li Xiaoxiao's words with tears in her eyes. She had long seen through it all: only when a person is strong can they protect the important people around them; otherwise, they will only be bullied by others.
"Yes, Master. I will practice the Krav Maga and Tai Chi you taught me diligently. Even without spiritual power, I will train my body to its limit."
Gui Sujuan immediately knelt on the ground, raised one hand and swore, "This servant swears that in this life I will take becoming stronger as my mission, never slacken, and never compromise."
Blood-red tears streamed from her eyes, making them completely bloodshot. Li Xiaoxiao felt she had gone too far and there was no need to push someone to this point.
"Alright, just keep it in mind. I'm leaving now. Keep a close eye on the Li family. You'll be the next manager, and I hope you won't let me down."
"You are a smart person and a decisive person. I have high hopes for you."
"When you have free time, try to find ways to take control of everything in front of you. If you have money, go and get some secret manuals. As long as you have the will, you will become stronger one day."
After talking for a while, Li Xiaoxiao got bored and took out two bottles of spiritual water from her bosom. "This is the medicine to heal your face. Give it to him to drink first to ease the damage that has accumulated over the years. When I come back from Yanshui County, I will find a suitable magical beast."
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
Gui Sujuan kept kowtowing, but Li Xiaoxiao waved her hand and finally let her leave.
After washing up alone, she lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Suddenly, she felt a little empty. Thinking of that unfaithful man, she felt angry. So much time had passed. Qi Yu was the first man who dared to get close to her, and he was so gentle and considerate. How could she lose him? Was she going to have to stay single for the rest of her life?
It's infuriating! I have to find a way to torment this man too.
Why do other people's husbands only know to seek out their wives when they are injured? Qi Yu is different. He is so resolute. Suddenly, it occurred to him what he would do if he met Wu Shiyao in the future and fell in love with her.
The thought of this problem made Li Xiaoxiao feel a little upset. How could she stop it?
