023 Sapphire

Chi Qi actually always felt that Xie Pingwu was deceiving him. After all, he had no use value to her. However, he still had some hope in her promise.

No one ever wants to help a slave.

Not to mention those high-ranking monks, there are also weak mortals, demons with low bloodline, and demons who are not tolerated by the world, all of whom look down on slaves.

Once you become a slave, you are no different from an animal.

Chi Qi doesn't want to be a beast or a tool, he wants power, and he wants to live with respect like a human being.

Xie Pingwu sensed Chi Qi's distrust. Xie Pingwu knew how sensitive her villain Zaizai was, with low self-esteem, suspicion and suspicion. Although her hands were numb from shoveling the shit of spirit beasts, she still said: "Sit down.

Yes, I will prepare some things."

After saying that, Xie Pingwu turned around and walked into the inner room.

Just before she opened the curtain, Chi Qi said, "Wait a minute."

Xie Pingwu turned around and looked at him, seeing him silently taking out a piece of sapphire from the bottom of his sleeve, spreading his palm, "Here you go."

"Give it to me?" Xie Pingwu was slightly stunned.

The young man turned his face away slightly and said in a cold and stiff tone, "You can return it to me after I help you kill Xie Langzhong."

This piece of jade was the most cherished thing by Chi Qi in his early days. It was given to him by an old slave he met in the slave farm. Chi Qi was only seven years old when he first entered the slave farm. He was still too young at that time. Although

He fought fiercely, but was ostracized and bullied.

It was the old slave who saved him once.

But in the end, the old slave used his life in exchange for Chi Qi.

——When he was seriously injured and about to die, he participated in the most powerful fight with the slave farm on behalf of Chi Qi, and then died. The exchange was that Chi Qi would go to see his wife on his behalf and give this sapphire to her.

He serves as a token.

That was the only kindness Chi Qi encountered after falling into the mud.

Even so, it is mixed with utilization.

Later, Chi Qi escaped and took a look. He wanted to return the sapphire to the old slave's wife. Only then did he realize that the old slave was not old. It was just that the life in the slave farm was too hard, and his body in his thirties was weakened.

Like an old man.

The wife he longed for married another county king, broke off the relationship with the old slave in front of everyone, and threw away the sapphire.

Chi Qi subconsciously took the sapphire and turned to leave.

Xie Pingwu looked at the sapphire she had written about in a few words. It was full of traces of being polished and was simple and cheap. After a while, she continued: "You are so poor, shouldn't this be your only possessions?"

Bar?"

Chi Qi frowned, a trace of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

Then I heard the girl continue: "I'm not poor, so I don't need to take your only property."

In fact, Xie Pingwu was very poor, but she had so many talismans that she could become a millionaire by just selling them. She didn't bother to explain these things, so she just pushed the sapphire back and said, "When I need your help, I won't be polite.

"

The shame and annoyance in Chi Qi's heart disappeared inexplicably, and an indescribable sourness dissipated. He seemed a little uncomfortable and a little surprised.

Did she dislike him for being poor or... did she think he was poor so she didn't accept him?

Chi Qi put aside this distracting thought that he had not yet had time to analyze. His dark eyes were cold and complicated, and he said lightly: "That's fine."

Xie Pingwu turned around and went into the inner room.

Chi Qi then lowered his eyes and glanced at the sapphire pendant in his hand. Indeed, it was the only valuable thing on his body, but Xie Pingwu came from the wealthiest Xie family, even if he was now in poverty, he would not look down on such an unavailable thing.

.

He put it away casually.

The reason why talisman cultivators are very wealthy is because there are not many talisman cultivators and their skills are quite high. A single talisman can be sold for a high price. Xie Pingwu currently has no spiritual energy and cannot draw talismans. If she wants to draw talismans, she needs to use a talisman that borrows spiritual energy.

Borrow spiritual energy.

Although it hurts to borrow spiritual energy, once you get used to it, you will get used to it.

Xie Pingwu took out the blood of the Chixi Beast and drew a talisman using the aura-borrowing talisman. Because there are spiritual veins in the back mountain of Evergreen Sect, the aura here is very rich. Xie Pingwu drew a few more aura-borrowing talismans. These

I was exhausted and sat down for a while.

She subconsciously swallowed the blood that came out of her throat, and then looked at Chi Qi.

"Take this talisman with you, don't take it off." She took a breath and swallowed another mouthful of blood. "It won't be effective until you reach the middle stage of the golden elixir. At that time, you will have to hunt for the Chixi beast with a higher level of cultivation.

."

Chi Qi took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, handed it to her, and said a little unnaturally: "Eat it."

Xie Pingwu took it and knew at a glance that it was medicine to treat internal injuries.

It's not a magic medicine, and even Xie Pingwu can take it now.

She raised her eyebrows and thought to herself that the current villain Zai Zai still has a bit of conscience. Thinking of Chi Qi who wanted to kill her a few days ago, she rarely said: "Thank you, next time you are injured, I will give it to you too."

Pass the hemostatic charm."

Chi Qi: "..."

He didn't want to get hurt.

Xie Pingwu took the pill and looked at the other person for a while, "How about the inner door?"

Chi Tong's expression was blank for a while, as if he was not used to talking to people about other things than business matters. He glanced down at Xie Pingwu. The vermilion tear mole on the side of his right eye was very beautiful, but his tone of voice was dry, "Shang

Can."

He doesn't even know how to get along with people.

If ability is only at the level of ordinary people, social interaction can determine a person's well-being to a large extent. In order to prevent Chi Qi from turning black, of course he must have a better life socially, so Xie Pingwu said: "

Then I can see you when I have time."

Chi Qi's expression was blank for a while.

Why go to see him?

Aren’t they a cooperative and exploitative relationship?

By the way, he almost forgot that humans are animals with feelings. Just like the old slave before, although he approached him to take advantage of him, he actually felt some pity for him later on.

A bit of unnecessary, meaningless pity.

Xie Pingwu pities him? Is it because he feels pity for him, or because he wants to get more value out of him?

"No need." Chi Qi said coldly.

Chi Qi doesn't mind being pitied. He can pretend to be pitiful without hesitation if he can get benefits in return, but he doesn't want to be taken advantage of to a greater extent.

Xie Pingwu held up her chin and looked at Chi Qi for a while, then she casually threw a rice dumpling candy into her mouth, chewed it, and looked at him casually with her gentle, apricot eyes, "Xiao Chi, actually everyone has it.

It’s valuable. If you don’t need it now, you might be able to use it in the future. If you have established a good relationship with me and the classmates around you, maybe I can help you in the future?”

In his heart, everyone is clearly different from him.

If contact is needed, it must be based on the value of the other person's existence. These values ​​may be power or money, but more importantly, emotional comfort.
