Pei Xiqing was almost falling asleep waiting when Duan Xiaolin came back from outside.
Xiaobai bit a flower he had picked up from somewhere, and came over with his tail wagging, placing it at her feet. Pei Xiqing opened her eyes when she noticed something was happening, reached out and rubbed his head, praising him, "Great."
Xiaobai rubbed her hand frantically and licked the palm of her hand with his tongue. She retracted his tongue out of ticklishness and looked up to see Duan Xiaolin coming in from the door.
The man came over, bent down, picked up the flower on the ground, and put it on the table. "If you see a dog on the road, it will bite it."
"It's a vase of flowers, probably one of the villagers' pets. I'll take it to the village tomorrow to apologize." Pei Xiqing patted Xiaobai, "I asked you to protect people, so why did you steal flowers again?"
Xiaobai howled twice.
Pei Xiqing asked the man, "Do you need my help with the underground work? I want to go too."
"It's almost been dealt with."
"What took you so long?"
Pei Xiqing smelled an unusual scent on him.
It smells like dirt and blood mixed together.
It's not strong, but in a place like this in the village, this kind of smell is very unusual.
It was subtle, but she could smell it.
She lowered her eyes, and the man squatted in front of her, holding her hand, and asked in a low voice: "Are you still asleep?"
Pei Xiqing said, "You've worked so hard, Brother Duan."
"I prefer this to the things that happened at the base, and I do it willingly."
Pei Xiqing nodded: "I know."
"Qiu Chao is here." He spoke slowly.
"Brother Qiu Chao." Pei Xiqing asked, "What is he doing here?"
"Come and check the crystal core."
"We really need to investigate," she said. "We need to thoroughly investigate what's going on with that Liu Dongshu."
As he spoke, the man took out a crystal core from his pocket.
Pei Xiqing covered her mouth in surprise, "Huh?"
Duan Xiaolin pinched her cheek and asked, "Are you so surprised?"
"Where did you get this..." Pei Xiqing took the light blue crystal core and weighed it. It felt about the same weight as a bottle of Nongfu Spring. The crystal core was blue in color, emitting light from the inside out. The crystal core was not a regular shape, but rather a bit weird, like a hedgehog.
Before the man could answer, she immediately guessed, "You pick up shit?"
Duan Xiaolin also picked up the crystal core?
He said, “Not really.”
"ah?"
"Yeah, it's picking up shit."
Pei Xiqing asked: "How did it come about?"
"Just happened to pick it up?"
Pei Xiqing held up the man's face and said, "Hmm? Try to lie to me again?"
He smiled helplessly: "It's on Liu Dongshu."
"He really still has a crystal core on him." Pei Xiqing touched the crystal core and thought: "He picked it up, and many people also picked it up. In fact, anyone can pick it up. Picking up is making money."
She winked at the man, her eyes full of cunning, and said, "If you pick up more, wouldn't you make a fortune?"
"That makes sense." Duan Xiaolin nodded in agreement.
Pei Xiqing kissed him on the cheek: "That's great."
He smiled: "So happy?"
"Of course." He definitely didn't know what she was happy about. Anyway, she wouldn't let him know that this was a great opportunity. If he knew, he would feel so unbalanced.
Xiao Yue didn't have to do anything. The whole journey was filled with opportunities. Picking up small crystal cores could greatly enhance her superpowers. Duan Xiaolin had lost his superpowers five years ago. She really couldn't believe how a person without superpowers could survive in a base full of intrigues and deceptions.
There are jackals, tigers and leopards all around.
"If you like it, I'll pick up some more."
"Okay," she said, "it would be great if it could restore and enhance your abilities."
She asked, "Brother Duan, how is your ability recovery going?"
Come to think of it, he hasn't seen him use his supernatural powers yet.
"Recovered 100㵑㦳50."
"Only fifty?"
"With a hundred and fifty, I'm quite satisfied."
Pei Xiqing hugged him: "No, I have to make sure you fully recover."
