Pagoda Immortality

Enter the study.

Tong Bao looked up and down and found that he really didn't recognize the person in front of him. He couldn't help but laugh at himself, secretly thinking that he was thinking too much, and hurriedly saluted:

"Tong Bao met with Mr. Ji and disappointed him. I may not be the person you are looking for."

Lu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, let me ask you, are you from Lijia Village?"

Tong Bao was stunned: "How do you know, sir?"

Hearing this, Lu Li couldn't help but secretly rejoice, but he quickly calmed down and said calmly, "Let's not talk about this for now. Can you tell me your father's name?"

Hearing this, Tong Bao hesitated for a moment, his thoughts wandering, and said, "My father's name is Tong Gang..."

Unconsciously, he has been away from home for many years.

But because of the trivial matters and the high mountains and long roads, I tried to go back several times but failed. I don't know how my old father is doing at home and whether his sickly body is okay.

Tong Gang.

After hearing these two words, Lu Li finally felt reassured and nodded, "Yes, you are the person I am looking for. Old Man Li from your village asked me to bring you a message, saying that your father has died of illness. It's buried at the foot of Dongshan Mountain. If you have time, remember to go back and take a look..."

Lu Li said Old Man Li's words exactly as they were before.

"Wha, what..."

Tong Bao's eyes darkened when he heard this, he staggered and almost fell down.

Seeing this, Lu Li hurriedly came over to help him, "My condolences."

Tong Bao's body trembled, and hot tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably, "Unfilial, Ah Bao was unfilial...for the sake of his own future...he actually left his old father in the mountains...and died alone..."

Lu Li sighed secretly when he saw this, this is the reality. On the one hand, it is livelihood, on the other hand, filial piety. Sometimes it is really difficult to have both.

Tong Bao vented for a long time before finally coming back to his senses and thanking Lu Li in despair: "Thank you sir for sending the letter all the way. Tong Bao really has nothing to repay..."

After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed.

"What are you doing!"

Lu Li had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed Tong Bao, "I'm just doing it along the way. I don't deserve such a big gift. If you have time, go back and have a look."

Tong Bao nodded in a daze, "I will take leave and return to my hometown in a few days to burn incense and add soil to my old father. If you have no other instructions, sir, I will leave first and come back to thank you another day..."

"Well, go ahead."

Lu Li originally wanted to ask Tong Bao something, but when he saw that the other party was in a low mood, he gave up the idea. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Come over when you feel better. I still have something to ask you."

Tong Bao clasped his fists and said 'yes', and then left the study as if he had lost all his strength.

At the same time, a familiar voice sounded in Lu Li's mind: "The adventure mission is completed. Congratulations on getting the talent, Elementary Speed."

"Basic speed, body agility doubled, speed doubled."

It’s done!

Hearing the voice of the immortal spirit, Lu Li couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he felt that something had changed in his body, and he couldn't wait to experiment in the room.

As expected, both his punching speed and running speed were much faster than before. Even if you give up your power, you can still be regarded as a master among mortals.

With this talent at his side, Lu Li became more confident about his next actions.

In the next few days, Lu Li was familiar with the new changes in his body while thinking about the next two things.

It’s noon on this day.

While Lu Li was dining in the dining room, he suddenly saw a plate of dishes that looked like persimmons. He couldn't help but asked curiously, "What kind of dish is this? Fried persimmons?"

Hearing this, Xiao Ling immediately said with some pride: "Sir, this is a new recipe I have researched. It's called 'Goose-flavored persimmon'. I took a bite. It's very good..."

"What did you say."

Lu Li was about to pick one up and taste it, but when he heard the words 'goose-flavored persimmon', he suddenly stopped, with no smile on his face.

"Sir, you...what's wrong with you..."

Xiaoling was a little frightened when she saw Lu Li's sudden change of expression.

Lu Li stood up, stared at Xiao Ling, and said in a cold tone: "Did you really research this dish yourself?"

"Yes, yes...how..." Xiaoling stammered in explanation. But before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a spin, fell heavily to the ground with a thud, and began to twitch wildly.

Lu Li's expression changed slightly and he hurriedly went up to help him sit up.

However, Xiao Ling's convulsions did not get better at all. After a few breaths, he was convulsed and deformed. His whole body shape was extremely weird, his bones made rattling sounds, and only the whites of his eyes were left. He looked extremely scary!

"Damn it!"

Lu Li looked ugly and rushed out of the dining room with Xiao Ling in his arms, went to the bedroom and threw her on the bed.

Then he pulled the bed curtain into strips with a few clicks, flattened Xiao Ling's limbs, and tied them to the bed so that they no longer looked as twisted as before. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, Xiaoling's neck began to twist again, her head turned sideways, foaming at the mouth, and extremely painful howling sounds came from her mouth from time to time.

Seeing this, Lu Li could only place his chin on the head of the bed, which made him unable to move at all. Then he sullenly rushed out of the inner courtyard and went to the kitchen in the outer courtyard to rummage through the boxes and cabinets.

Fortunately, after a while of rummaging, he finally found a pack of good mung beans. Immediately boil water in a pot and increase the firepower to simmer it.

About a quarter of an hour later, under Lu Li's high fire, a pot of thick mung bean soup was ready.

Lu Li served a bowl and quickly returned to the room. He pinched Xiao Ling's mouth and poured it in, regardless of whether it was hot or not. However, Xiao Ling's body was completely out of control at this time. In the end, she probably only ate less than one-third of the full bowl of mung bean soup.

Lu Li returned to the kitchen and put all the remaining mung bean soup in a pottery pot, and then returned to the room to continue pouring it.

It took him a whole incense stick of time to feed the big pot of mung bean soup. Although he wasted more than he ate, he probably swallowed a lot.

At this time, Xiao Ling's expression gradually began to calm down, and she no longer struggled and howled like before.

"Brother, do you think Mr. Ji has any special hobbies? Miss Chun Ling's scream just now was too scary. It didn't sound like a human scream at all." At the entrance of the atrium, a guard lowered his voice and said with some fear.

"Hush! Brother, be careful! You and I are just gatekeepers. It's better not to get involved in the things above. Otherwise, you might die someday without knowing how." The other man's face suddenly changed when he heard this.

"I understand. I just feel sorry for Miss Chunling. You say, such a beautiful girl. Even if you really want her, you don't have to be so rude. You simply don't treat her as a human being..." The former shook his head and sighed.

He only dared to say such words behind your back. People of Lu Li's status were far from being offended by him.

On the other side, in the bedroom.

Seeing Xiaoling calm down, Lu Li couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at the pale face, he suddenly felt a little depressed.
