Otherworldly Skeleton

The decoration inside the house is very simple. There are two beds made of broken bones covered with some straw, a wooden pier in the middle as a table, and a rotten wooden box in the corner with some clothes piled up in a mess. All the frills.

On one of the bone-crushing beds, lay a five-year-old boy. His arms were shirtless in the winter, his skin turned blue from the cold, his whole body was covered with rashes, many places were rotten, and he looked dying. look.

"It's more serious than it was a month ago." Cassie glanced at it, with a rare heartache on his face: "The human beings in this sick city can't cure it. They say it's called putrid heat poison. If you can't cover the quilt, the cover will rot. The child has had this disease for three years, and it is getting worse every year, maybe this winter will not be able to survive.”

"An Qi, can it be cured?" Lu Yan didn't say much, and let An Qi watch the child.

An Qi came to the child's side, squatted down without feeling dirty, lifted the quilt, gently stroked the skin on the child's body, and began to observe.

It took Lu Yan a while to see An Qi before he asked Cassie, "How did you know each other?"

Cassie smiled wryly: "This child saved me. When I crawled out from the edge of the soul gap, my hand was broken and I almost fell. This child happened to be playing next to him. He ran over and grabbed me. Then He was only two years old at the time, he was almost pulled down by me, but he insisted on pulling my hand bones, and he actually saved me, but the child himself got this strange disease."

Lu Yan nodded lightly. Cassie has this kind of personality. She knows how to repay her kindness and admits death. If she can save the child, Cassie will be able to follow him wholeheartedly.

"This disease is very difficult..." After a while, An Qi said bitterly: "I can help him stabilize his condition, but if he really wants to recover, he must extract all the rotting souls from his body. "

Was it caused by rotting souls entering the body? It is not uncommon for rotting souls to enter the body, but it is rare to be so seriously ill.There are many human slaves in the skeleton city, and many of them will be invaded by rotten souls. Most of the time, the rotten souls will not enter the human body much, and will not cause too serious consequences. Otherwise, how can those slaves survive in the skeleton city? .But once the disease is so serious, it is basically incurable.

Cassie asked eagerly: "Then how can we completely draw out the rotten soul?"

An Qi shook her head in pain: "I don't know about this either. It is said that neither medical skills nor magic can completely remove the rotting soul, only some special equipment can do it, but those things seem to be either priceless or have been lost long ago." .”

After chatting for a few more words, An Qi started chasing the skeletons: "Get out, I need a quiet environment to awaken the child's own vitality. This is the only thing I can do."

Lu Yan waited for the skeleton to talk naturally, Cassie looked at An Qi gratefully, then looked at the unconscious little boy worriedly, and then finally went out, An Qi began to chant the incantation like an ethereal song, shimmering began to permeate the dark room.

As soon as he went out, Lu Yan saw a woman in disheveled clothes rushing towards her madly, crying loudly from a distance: "You damned skeletons, let my child go... let him go!"

Many human slaves on both sides pointed and pointed. Some of them told the woman what happened here. They didn't have much sympathy for the mother and child, and even had a kind of disgust and disgust. Seeing her madly rushing towards the skeleton at this moment , Some humans even had evil smiles, waiting to watch the bloody scene.

Cassie's expression darkened: "This is the child's mother. She always thinks that I hurt Xiao Shitou, and please sir...don't hurt her."

"My lord never kills an unarmed human being." Before Lu Yan could speak, Andelina spoke first, and then she went to support the almost insane woman: "My lord has hired a bright magician to protect your child. If you don’t want him to die young, you’d better not mess around.”

The woman wanted to break free, but she was not as strong as Anderina. After struggling for a while, her strength disappeared, and then she slowly collapsed. Anderina carried her to the door of the room and took a look. The woman saw a face in white The quiet An Qi immediately fell silent, and the anger on her face turned into surprise. Andrina felt that it was almost done, and gently placed the woman by the door, and told her not to interrupt the treatment process.

Lu Yan glanced at the woman, whose clothes were flimsy and revealing, and her hair was disheveled. He immediately understood what kind of job this woman was engaged in, but he also understood that it was an act of Nai, so he called two warriors: "Let Levin Send some subordinates over to build a small yard for this family, and then go to Hardy's store and ask him if he needs a tally assistant."

The two warriors took the lead and went to act separately. Cassie was deeply moved by the side. The boss was too thoughtful. Not only did he settle down, he also arranged for a serious job.

The human slaves who watched the excitement were surprised. Did it take so long for the skeleton to kill the slave?

Angie's singing took a long time, and she didn't finish until Levin came.

"My lord, what is this?" Levin didn't know what urgent matter Lu Yan had, so he came in person and brought his construction team, including six strong bones, 57 war bones, and hundreds of red bones.

The human slaves onlookers couldn't understand it even more. To kill a seriously ill child and a weak woman, do you need to summon so many skeletons, and there are strong bones present... Oh, they suddenly understood that this is a torture show, Some idlers started to get excited.

Lu Yan pointed to the small broken house: "The children of this family once saved Cassie and built a yard for them."

I saved Cassie, so what else is there to say? Levin and Cassie have also fought together several times. Although they are not as good as Stone, they are much closer than ordinary skeletons. , Levin immediately ordered that the construction of the courtyard and buildings began on the spot.

The skeletons build houses very quickly, especially the skeletons who are really proficient in the art of "building".The group of humanoid skeletons under Levin were all carefully selected, and the efficiency was even more impressive. They quickly measured the size of the yard—of course it was very large, because Levin had a regular company with him. Skeleton, build houses and buy land at any time.The skeleton of the previous land division has also received a super authorization, and is determined to make good bones to the end: "Build whatever you want, build whatever you want, 5 bone cards per mu of land."

This is not selling land, this is giving land, giving favors.

After measuring the land, hundreds of red bones have moved a large amount of stones. Gaoling City is under construction everywhere, and this kind of stones are everywhere. They just go to other skeleton construction sites to get them. For money, Levin was in charge of various construction tasks, and Lu Yan had already allocated a large amount of funds to him.

Then it was digging the wall of the circle, the skeletons got out the bone water puree, and after a while, they made an elegant and unique courtyard wrapped in boulders, especially Levin was interested, and made a row of skeleton reliefs on the courtyard wall , Exquisitely compared, later this wall became a scenic spot of Gaoling City.

At this time, the human slaves onlookers were a little relieved. It turned out that these skeletons were not here to kill, but to help. There are so many strong bones to help their mother and child build a house... Those gloating, have made fun of Little Stone before. The human mother and child felt the chills on the back of their necks.

When the fence was built, An Qi also came out of the house tiredly. To the surprise of the skeletons, Little Stone also staggered out. He still recognized Cassie, and he stumbled a few steps, hugging her. Holds Cassie's leg bone.

"You cured him?" Lu Yan looked at An Qi in surprise.

An Qi smiled wryly and shook her head: "It's not that easy. I just helped him arouse his own vitality, cleaned up the wound and injured body, but didn't remove the root. He will get sick again soon, and it will get worse."

Little Shitou's mother's face was full of tears of joy. She could barely remember how Xiaoshitou stood up. Since Xiaoshitou fell ill, she had to sell her body in exchange for slightly better food for Xiaoshitou. Xiaoshi's body is still getting weaker day by day, and her body is becoming more and more worthless.Unexpectedly, these skeletons who came suddenly today almost cured Xiaoshi's disease, and even built a courtyard wall for himself.

"Cassie, there's news from Hardy that there's a vacancy in the magic supplies store. Tell them, I'll go first." Lu Yan took two steps outside, then suddenly turned around: "Little stone's disease can be eliminated. Don't worry about the matter, about the kind of equipment that pulls out rotten souls, I will ask the teacher back, he should know."

Cassie was so moved that he didn't know what to say, he just looked at Lu Yan's back and nodded heavily, the grass stem between the bones and teeth was bitten off by him for the first time.

After leaving the free slave gathering place, Lu Yan went to the blacksmith shop first. Aye told him that he had found iron and gold mines in the Magic Tooth Mountains, and there were five or six associated rare metal mines. He used a large amount of ores and received many Less work is better, the blacksmith shop earns 200 million cards a month.

In addition to making money, Ah Ye also took the time to create a batch of new crescent guns, bone cutters and triangular shields, and there were many improvements. The most important thing was that rare metals and other auxiliary materials were added according to the method of metallurgy. Toughness and sharpness are clearly upped a notch.

Lu Yan took the bone-cutting knife from A Ye and chopped it on his leg bone. As expected, he felt a sharp pain, which shows that the sharpness of this kind of bone-cutting knife is quite high, and it is absolutely perfect for dealing with battle bones. Cutting it with a knife will also be very aggressive against strong bones.

"My lord, I'll show you something again." Ah Ye dragged Lu Yan to a closed room inside the blacksmith's shop. Now that the blacksmith's shop has expanded a lot, there are more than twenty large and small rooms. Look, there is no furniture in the room, just a few big boxes in the corner.

Ah Ye walked over and lifted the lid of one of them, and the room was immediately filled with golden light, a box full of gold coins.Aye smiled and said, "I made it according to the shape of the gold coins of the Lan Empire. There is no difference in weight and shape. There are a total of [-] gold coins here."

Lu Yan was overjoyed, these gold coins were just about to be used, he nodded: "Okay, put them away for now, I'll pick them up in two days."

"My lord, do you want me to organize people to dig some gold ore?" Aye asked.

Lu Yan thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, the gold coins in the Skull Continent are useless, they can only be used to open up trade routes. If you open a trade route for the first time, these gold coins are enough, and the matter of digging gold ore can be delayed. The main thing is to make more advanced weapons and equipment, you should prepare a list of materials you need in the next two days, and also count a few apprentices who know how to choose materials, and then prepare to follow to open up business routes."

Ah Ye had long wanted to purchase materials from the Human Continent, and immediately agreed happily.

After coming out of the blacksmith shop, Lu Yan rushed to Zoe's bank and said that he wanted to send his subordinates to open up business routes. Zoe was overjoyed immediately and expressed his willingness to contribute 15% of the funds. Lu Yan readily agreed, not to Zoe's money, but this old businessman can devote himself wholeheartedly.And Lu Yan told Zoe that he was still willing to share 15% of the quota, and asked Zoe to find some experienced merchants.

After discussing for several hours, Lu Yan came out of the bank. He brought Andelina to Hardy's magic supply shop. Hardy.

When Lu Yan came to West Third Street, the sun had set for more than an hour, and the torches and bright stones in Gaoling City had already bloomed brightly. It was the time when the skeletons and slaves came out for activities, and there was a lively scene everywhere, but Lu Yan However, they found that the magic supply store at the corner of West Third Street seemed a little bustling.

A large group of skeletons were bluffing and surrounding the magic supply shop.
