"This little bitch definitely doesn't take you seriously!" Qin Zhaozhao followed the old man and kept getting angry.

"Shut up!" The old man turned around and scolded her, angrily.

Qin Zhaozhao felt very unhappy, but he could only reluctantly shut his mouth and did not dare to speak anymore.

After the old man calmed down, he slowly picked up the medicine bowl from the ground and turned his eyes as smooth as a poisonous snake to Pei Shao.

"He's a brave one." He put the medicine bowl on the table casually and left with Qin Zhaozhao without doing anything else.

Before leaving the room, Qin Zhaozhao turned to look at Pei Shao again, his eyes full of evil and unwillingness.

The wooden door squeaked shut again, and calm returned to the small basement. The surrounding air was still a mixture of thick blood and earthy smell, mixed with a vague smell of mold.

Pei Shao tried to struggle, but she did not break free from the rope that bound her, and instead tightened it even tighter.

Her wrists ached from suffocation.

She was somewhat mentally prepared for Qin Zhaozhao's attempt to cause trouble. The so-called lack of defense was just to lure Qin Zhaozhao into taking the bait.

But I didn't expect Qin Zhaozhao to play so big this time.

Pei Shao tried to transmit the voice to Yu Jiaojiao, but it seemed to be bounced back by a transparent barrier. She did not give up and tried two more senior brothers and master one by one.

Without exception, the message could not be transmitted.

The smell of rotting meat was even worse, and Pei Shao followed the source of the smell.

There was a dark shadow in the corner of the house. The basement was so dark that Pei Shao couldn't see what the shadow was.

But from the slightly undulating figure of the other party, it can be roughly inferred that this is either a person or an animal.

In short, it must be a living creature.

Pei Shao slowed down and tried to talk to the unknown creature in the corner.

However, there was no response from the other party, so Pei Shao looked back with regret and continued to try to untie the restraints on his body.

But soon, the old man and Qin Zhaozhao left and returned again.

The old man's face looked much rosier than before, and Qin Zhaozhao, who followed him respectfully, was also full of pride. After meeting Pei Shao's eyes, she immediately raised her chin proudly.

Pei Shao had no time to talk to her and looked at the old man carefully.

The old man's face was full of wrinkles, but his exposed hands were much smoother than his face, giving people an indescribable feeling. The whole person was extremely weird.

"Take her out." The old man said lightly to Qin Zhaozhao without taking any action.

Qin Zhaozhao immediately became interested and roughly separated the rope binding Pei Shao's wrists from the iron chain on the wall, then roughly dragged her out after the old man.

"Pei Shao." Qin Zhaozhao looked at her with a smile, but he was gritting his teeth, as if a great revenge had been avenged: "You finally fell into my hands."

Pei Shao didn't respond to her. Qin Zhaozhao was angry and laughed.

The old man walked in front without saying much, while Qin Zhaozhao followed closely.

Pei Shao's guess was correct. This was indeed a basement. After opening the door, there were steps leading upward. After walking up the steps, he arrived at a new room.

The room was filled with large and small medicine jars. When she saw those medicine jars, Qin Zhaozhao trembled uncontrollably. She gritted her teeth and pushed Pei Shao forward until she was close to the old man. beside.

"Master, Pei Shao has extremely pure wood spirit roots and is countless times stronger than me. Using her to make medicine will definitely make Master's strength even higher..."

Normally Qin Zhaozhao would not admit that Pei Shao was better than him, but now he couldn't wait and praised Pei Shao in various ways.

Master?

Pei Shao frowned and looked at the old man.

When I didn't know it, I couldn't feel anything. Now when I looked at the old man's face, I just felt it was strange.

After Qin Zhaozhao was expelled from the school by Elder Yunhe, he was taken away by Elder Xinghui.

And Elder Xinghui is in charge of Medicine Peak...

Pei Shao glanced at the old man's exposed hand without leaving any trace. It seems that he can match the age of Elder Xinghui...

"Do you need to tell me?" The old man frowned and looked at Qin Zhaozhao, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Remember your own identity, what should be said and what should not be said."

Qin Zhaozhao's body trembled violently again.

He nodded in agreement, with unconcealable fear on his face.

The old man ignored Qin Zhaozhao and slowly began to pack his things.

After a while, he cleaned out a huge medicine jar and raised his chin at Qin Zhaozhao: "Get her in."

Qin Zhaozhao nodded immediately, his face full of impatience.

As soon as she reached out to Pei Shao, she felt as if she was separated by an invisible barrier.

Qin Zhaozhao was stunned and looked up at her, full of disbelief. She tried again without belief, but this time the result was still the same.

As if he sensed her malice, the barrier rebounded her force back hard, and Qin Zhaozhao only felt pain in his arm.

Pei Shao was a little surprised. She lowered her head and looked at the jade gourd between her wrists.

Sure enough, the jade gourd emitted an inconspicuous green light in the dim room.

Qin Zhaozhao quickly recovered from her anger. She calmed down, pointed at the pendant on Pei Shao's wrist, gritted her teeth and said, "Master, this protective magical weapon of Pei Shao is an extraordinary thing——"

"Oh?" The old man raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "A protective magical weapon? This is quite strange."

As he spoke, he brewed spiritual energy in his hands and headed towards Pei Shao.

But as expected, all his spiritual energy was bounced back.

It seems that because the old man is much stronger than Qin Zhaozhao, the strength of this rebound is even much higher than his own.

The old man was a little stunned, but he quickly reacted and raised his hand to hold up a protective shield to protect himself inside.

Qin Zhaozhao, who was ignored by others, was hit by the huge force and fell to the ground. He took many steps back before stopping.

It hurt... She just felt pain all over her body.

But Qin Zhaozhao still stood up, regardless of the scars all over his body.

The old man also became interested.

He circled Pei Shao a few times inquiringly, and Pei Shao's scalp felt numb when he looked at her with sinister eyes.

Soon, his eyes turned to the jade gourd on Pei Shao's wrist.

The old man tried to reach out to grab it, but it was bounced back mercilessly.

The interest in the old man's eyes was even greater.

Pei Shao calmly stepped back and leaned on a medicine jar at the back.

Coupled with the time of the Yaojiang Water Ghost, she basically understood it.

The jade gourd probably has the ability to protect the master. Every time she is hurt, the jade gourd will reflect the damage.

But it still had some impact on her.

After two rebounds, Pei Shao felt that his mental power was rapidly losing.

Things are getting blurry when I see them.

The old man's strength is really too strong. If it happens again, she might not be able to hold on...
