Chapter 42: The Woman Who Insisted on Living in the House
"What good is it for you to have to stay with me?" Shen Lang watched helplessly as Venomous Fairy busied herself with her work.
"This basin of pitch-black water, did you say it was prepared for me?" Shen Lang frowned as he looked at the bowl of water in front of him …
No, calling it a "soup" was more appropriate. The snake, scorpion, and spider remains could be vaguely seen. What was even more terrifying was that a portion of the unknown worm's cool air was actually squirming, which was very scary.
Venomous Fairy said embarrassedly, "I haven't stewed this pot yet. I'll go cook another pot now …" But don't worry about the quality, I can guarantee it. This is called the Five Poison Complementary Solution, when all five poisons are put together, the toxins will cancel each other out. Lord Shen, if you soak in it every day, you'll be immune to the white disease and increase your resistance greatly … "
"Stop, stop." Shen Lang was exasperated and said, "There's no need to go through all that mess. Just go fill the basin with plain water."
Venomous Fairy carried her basin and left, but Shen Lang seemed to have recovered and said, "Venomous Fairy! "Did you use my stew pot to stew this thing?!"
Venomous Fairy paused at the sound and then slipped even faster into the kitchen.
Shen Lang rubbed his head painfully. He thought a girl could take care of him and maybe even get hired as an Internet Cafe employee. But now it turned out that he was really thinking too much.
It was already a great fortune not to lose his life, why would he need to take care of himself?
Another crackling sound came from the kitchen. Shen Lang didn't dare to look over, but he said weakly: "Venomous Fairy, clean up the kitchen …"
Finally, after about half an hour, this girl brought a basin of boiling water.
"With this time, I can already sleep …" Shen Lang suddenly thought of his past life as if it was getting further and further away.
"Lord Shen, don't blame me, I've done my best …" Venomous Fairy said in an aggrieved manner.
Looking at Venomous Fairy's cute appearance, Shen Lang couldn't bear to continue blaming her. He looked at the clear and transparent water again and said, "You didn't put anything strange in this time, right?"
"No, no." Venomous Fairy immediately shook her head. "It's just plain water this time."
"That's good... The grass in his hand is hot! "
Yet another wave of people were thrown into disarray …
"You sleep on the bed."
Shen Lang helplessly prepared to sleep on his computer chair.
After all, she was still a girl.
Just as Shen Lang was about to leave, a delicate hand suddenly pulled him.
"Lord Shen, you don't have to worry about me. As long as I stay here, I will be satisfied!" Furthermore, I have already stepped into the Foundation Stage, so I don't need to sleep at all.
With that, Venomous Fairy sat cross-legged in front of Shen Lang's bed, very naturally.
Shen Lang nodded. Indeed, some powerful cultivators cultivate at night with better results.
Shen Lang overthought it.
Shen Lang consumed the Fruit of Mystery again. This time, it was not the growth of the Strength Attribute, but a little increase of its spirit, which made Shen Lang a little disappointed.
"Alright then. "It's late at night and I'm sleeping." Too many things had happened today. Although Shen Lang's Strength Attribute had already recovered 2 points, it was equivalent to him recovering from a serious illness and needed a good rest.
"Strange, Lord Shen's level should be higher than mine right? Why do we need sleep? "
Venomous Fairy watched Shen Lang fall asleep not long after he got onto the bed. She could not help but feel confused, but she did not dare to disturb Shen Lang's rest.
In his dreams, Shen Lang vaguely felt a pair of hands that were as smooth as lamb fat, almost touching his entire body, but he couldn't wake up, so he could only feel a little bit dizzy.
"Hu!"
As he stood up, the outside of the window also cleared up.
He looked around, but nothing seemed to have happened. Venomous Fairy was still sitting in meditation on the spot, and the fiery red, tender sun just happened to shine on her body, making her look like a fairy from the ninth heaven.
Vaguely, Shen Lang seemed to see wisps of light converging into Venomous Fairy's body.
"A bit more." When she opened her eyes, there was actually a glimmer in them. She said happily, "The current me can actually break through … However, I can still accumulate more power and use it at the next realm to explode. That way, I can be even more powerful! "
Venomous Fairy had never thought that she would be able to break through again after barely two months of cultivation. She hurriedly suppressed her cultivation, fearing that her foundation would be unstable.
Even if there was poison nourishing him every day, it still wouldn't have improved so quickly!
Especially after playing with the [Mythical Super Mary] yesterday, although she did not immediately raise her strength, her control over it seemed to have become more precise. Even now, if she were to concentrate her killing intent, it would still be able to solidify.
That was why she had been able to touch upon the threshold of the next Realm!
"Have some breakfast." Shen Lang stretched his back comfortably. At the same time, he suddenly recalled the blurry memories of the previous night and could not help but ask the System:
"System, did anything happen to me last night...?"
"There was nothing serious last night except for a small problem — the host rolled out of bed in his sleep. However, when Venomous Fairy saw it, she carried the host onto the bed. "
Hearing the cold voice of the System, Shen Lang was extremely embarrassed. He could feel the faint ridicule from the System. He did not know if it was due to him or not.
"Um, can you step aside for a moment? I'm wearing my clothes." Shen Lang felt a bit awkward.
"I finished reading it last night. What is it?" Venomous Fairy muttered, but still obediently turned around.
"What did you say?" Shen Lang didn't hear it clearly.
"No, I said I was going to buy breakfast." A trace of crimson flew past Venomous Fairy's face as she ran down like the wind.
Shen Lang got up and did a bit of cleaning. He looked over the current situation of Shen Ng Jia and himself.
Right now, he had already reached Level 2, but the experience bar from Level 2 to Level 3 only filled up the initial tiny bit. He was still far from Level 3.
However, he had already completed his task of selling '100 servings' for 12 hours and 12% of the time, which was only a day's worth of time. Although this task seemed very scary, with this momentum, he estimated that he would be able to complete this task soon.
The quest reward was the VR game [Contra]!
This was a very classic game. Shen Lang had once been obsessed with it. As for virtual reality, it was something that many looked forward to!
Although Shen Lang's stats had once been burnt through 1 point of Strength, through the game and quest rewards, not only did he make up for it, he even received an increase.
Host: Shen Lang.
Strength: 2 points.
Spirit: 6 points;
Response: 6 points.
Furthermore, Shen Lang still had a Mysterious Fruit that he did not consume. After taking it, his attributes should also increase!
