Proud Sword Emperor

Chapter 913
In the backstreet, a group of elderly people in their seventies and eighties, their hunched bodies gradually became straight, their pale, weak and abnormal faces were now full of ruddy luster.

Under the radiance of epiphyllum, everyone felt the astonishing changes in their bodies, and the cough, wheezing, leg pain, dizziness and other diseases that afflicted them in the past all disappeared.

It was as if I had become 30 years younger in an instant.

"It's amazing, it's really amazing!" Lao Li's legs, which he couldn't stand up to now, were full of motivation as if he could jump into the sky.

"Your hair, Mrs. Wang, has turned black!"

"Old Zhao, your scars have faded away, have you seen that?"

The whole back street was filled with the sound of surprise and cheers, and it was full of joy.

"Qiaoqiu, thank you so much!"

A group of old people picked up the child and hugged it.

Everyone is happy, but the child's expression is not very happy. After he increases the life span of everyone, then he may become an old man, and he is waiting for this result.

"What's wrong with you ball?"

"Why are you soaring?"

Everyone noticed the strangeness of Qiuqiu, and couldn't help but express their concern.

The child kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about it, just panicking.

"This, this child..."

"Is there any sequelae after he did this?"

"Yes, will there be a price to pay?"

People in the backstreet were all worried. If the children really paid the price because of them, how could they live with their conscience.

"Don't worry."

Xu Chen walked away from the crowd and walked into the child and said, "You did it with care, God decided not to let you grow old."

"Really?!"

The child immediately looked at Xu Chen in surprise, and his mood suddenly improved.

"Ah."

Xu Chen nodded, then looked at the people around him and said, "Qiuqiu used too much power of the paintbrush this time, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to use the paintbrush again for a long time, so the life of their mother and child may be a little bit different." It’s difficult, but we need everyone’s help.”

"life difficulties?"

Everyone looked at Ji Yue's mother and son and quickly understood that the mother and son could have money and food by relying on the paintbrush. Now that the paintbrush is gone, they will return to the original state...

"It's a small matter. We each take turns to deliver meals to their mother and child one day."

The crowd said immediately.

"Ah."

Xu Chen nodded in satisfaction and left, but there was a twinkle in his eyes.

Does his paintbrush really lose too much power?Of course not, the paintbrush can't be used just because he did it on purpose.

He just wanted to spread the news that the paintbrush had temporarily lost its ability, so as to see what would happen next.

A treasure without any threat is placed in the hands of a child, but this is an opportunity that is within reach, how will people's hearts face it?

After that, it was quiet for a while.

The people in the back street really have been taking care of the life of the mother and the child. As for the paintbrush in the child's hand and the magical power of the paintbrush, they have not been leaked.

Half a year passed like this.

Xu Chen, who was sitting on the counter, narrowed his eyes. When he looked at the back street, his eyes were much softer.

"It's really rare that no one has evil intentions."

Even if Ji Yue told everyone before that only Qiuqiu could use the paintbrush, but facing such a miraculous paintbrush, how could such a simple reason make people let go of all greed?

Greedy people can have 1 reasons to snatch treasures, but this did not happen. This is enough to show that although the people in the back streets were old, weak, sick, and poor...but they are not evil people.

"Um……"

Xu Chen didn't know what he was thinking, and closed his eyes by the counter to rest his mind, falling into subterranean cultivation.

Time flies again.

Xu Chen stayed in this backstreet and became more and more acquainted with people, and at the same time became more and more proficient in paintings.

There are already two piles of drawing papers piled up behind his counter, thick ones, each of which is Ye Suyan, full of longing.

When he put away another scroll, a new customer came in outside the store.

"Little Second?"

A man in brocade clothes stepped in, looked at Xu Chen and strode closer and said, "Prepare me a guest room with the highest number."

"There is a room, the second door on the top of the building is there, you can go up by yourself." Xu Chen gave the key to the guest and said calmly.

"I go up by myself?"

The man in brocade clothes stared and grinned, looked at Xu Chen's calm and unharmed appearance, shook his head and muttered: "I guess he is a newcomer who doesn't understand anything, so I won't bother with him if I have a lot of young masters."

After that, he went to the room alone.

After he left, Xu Chen raised his head and glanced at his back: "He has an extraordinary bearing, and his identity should not be simple. How could such a person come to the back street?"

Backstreet was once regarded as a deserted area, and almost no one from a wealthy family would come here, but the appearance of this young man was a bit strange.

"hiss!"

In the upstairs room.

The young man took off his clothes as soon as he entered the door. Under his high-spirited surface, there were dense scars hidden. There were no outsiders. At this moment, the expression of the young man became painful and struggling.

"Damn it, it's a dead end this time."

The young man endured the pain and looked at the black blood on his chest, his face was full of helplessness: "I have been delayed on the road for a while, and the poison is already deep. Now even if there is an antidote, I am afraid it will not work."

"Poor me, Bai Tairan, who has great ambitions in his life, but now he is going to sleep halfway."

"I'm just a little sorry for this inn. If I die here, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of excuses for the owner of the shop and affect people's business."

The young man thought for a while, opened the package behind him, took out all the money in it, and put a few exercise cheat books, and finally hesitated for a moment, put the sword in his hand on the table and said: "But I, Bai Tairan, have a head and a face A person who is a dead body must never be thrown into the wilderness, so let me save all my wealth in this life as compensation."

After speaking, he lay on the bed and waited to die.

"You want to die that much."

Suddenly a voice came from the room.

"Who?!"

Bai Tairan got up suddenly and looked around vigilantly, but he could only hear voices, but no figure could be seen.

"I am the owner of this store, if you die, you can't die here." The voice came out again.

Bai Tairan frowned, and then calmed down. Although all this seemed weird, he was going to die soon, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"I've left you compensation." After Bai Tairan finished speaking, he lay down on his own again.

"It is very expensive to die here, and your compensation is not enough." The voice came out.

"..." Bai Tairan said slightly annoyed: "Then what you say is enough."

"Forget it, this is already your entire net worth, and you won't be able to hand it over as much as I say, so if you want to die, go out and die." The sound made Bai Taiping open his mouth in anger.

What kind of person is this, why don't you let him die? !

"Okay!" Bai Tairan got up angrily, rolled up his clothes, turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait."

The voice came again: "Actually, there is another choice. Your wealth is not enough to die with me, but it is more than enough to live with me."
