Mortal Mirror

In the training field, after a few attempts, Li Ergou couldn't hold on any longer. After a mistake, he was caught by Man Niu, who landed a punch on his stomach.

This attack completely broke his defense, making him unable to dodge Man Niu's remaining attacks. After a fierce beating, Li Ergou lay on the ground motionless, just like a dead dog. Fortunately, Man Niu didn't deliver a fatal blow and left him with a breath.

At this moment, he was beaten beyond recognition. Just as Man Niu was about to leave, he mustered his last strength, stretched out his trembling arm, grabbed Man Niu's leg, and barely squeezed out a few words from his swollen face, "My money."

Man Niu was startled by his persistence. A trace of surprise flashed in his bull-like eyes, followed by disdain.

Finally, he snorted and threw a small bag of silver fragments on him without any hesitation.

Although Li Ergou didn't know how much it was, he knew that from now on, he had money.

He clutched the money bag tightly, and a smile appeared on his face. Unfortunately, his face was so swollen that the smile looked strange no matter how you looked at it.

Huang Batian had a dark face, his eyes full of resentment. He walked into the training field, but this time he didn't pick up Li Ergou. Instead, he grabbed one of his legs and dragged him away, just like dragging a dead dog.

But the lives of small people have always been worthless. Everyone tacitly remained silent, letting him drag Li Ergou away.

When he arrived in front of the pharmacy, he directly released Li Ergou and threw him at the door. His eyes were full of disgust and hatred. Looking at the silver tightly held in Li Ergou's hand, Huang Batian sneered in his heart, 'Let you hold it for a while and enjoy it. You'll still have to hand it over to me obediently later.'

He snorted coldly and left without even entering the house to say hello.

As soon as he left, the door was opened, and Granny Wu appeared at the door. She sighed and carried Li Ergou into the house with a look of pity on her face.

A large barrel was added to this small room, and a dark brown medicinal soup was bubbling inside. Granny Wu put Li Ergou into the large barrel.

Li Ergou suddenly felt so comfortable, so comfortable. He barely opened his eyes and looked at Granny Wu, his voice trembling slightly, "What is this? It's so comfortable."

Granny Wu said, "This is medicinal soup. It can help you get better quickly, and your bones and flesh will become stronger. It cost me a lot of money."

"Money, I have money."

"Forget it, forget it. This is what you earned with your life. Keep it for yourself."

Li Ergou asked the question in his heart, "Granny, Ergou doesn't know why you are so kind to me."

Granny Wu looked at his swollen face, which looked like a pig's head, and couldn't help sighing, "When I see you, I seem to see myself when I was young, unyielding and stubborn. It's just like me back then.

Alas, when people get old, they always get sentimental. Never mind, never mind. You have a good rest. You'll be fine after a sleep."

Li Ergou smiled foolishly, his heart warm. No one had ever cared about him since he was a child. It felt so good to be cared for. He secretly vowed in his heart that he would repay today's kindness a hundredfold or a thousandfold when he had the ability in the future.

At this moment, he felt the energy in the medicinal liquid seeping into his flesh through his skin, which made his body feel warm.

And he also felt a mysterious aura drilling out from all parts of his body. They merged into his flesh and bones, making his body quickly reduce swelling.

He initially thought that those mysterious gases were emitted from the medicinal liquid, but after careful observation, he realized that the mysterious aura was from his own body.

He suddenly understood that it must be related to the replicated food he had eaten. It seemed that he should eat more of it in the future.

In a daze, he thought about many messy things and fell asleep without knowing when.

When he opened his eyes, there was no one in the room. He didn't know where Granny Wu had gone. At this moment, he felt refreshed. Looking at his body, all the swelling had disappeared, and he had returned to his original appearance.

And he also felt that his bones had become much stronger, and his strength had also increased.

He jumped out of the medicine bucket, moved his muscles and bones, and heard the sound of popping beans from his body. He felt full of power.

He looked at the medicine bucket in front of him, and with a thought, he took out the mirror and directly replicated a bucket. This thing is good. If it is replicated with a mirror, the medicinal properties should be stronger.

He looked at the gurgling medicine pot on the ground again. This medicine pot seemed to be gurgling non-stop every day. Granny Wu said that the medicine here was used to treat bruises and injuries, and the medicine he soaked in also had this ingredient.

It's just that the medicinal liquid is strong, and she didn't dare to put too much for him at one time.

This thing is very good. Li Ergou was not polite and directly threw the medicine pot into the bronze mirror and replicated it. These things are treasures to him.

He had just finished when the door opened with a creak. Granny Wu came back. When she saw that Li Ergou had completely recovered, she was surprised. After thinking for a while, she said, "It seems that not only is the medicine effective, but your body recovers faster than others."

Li Ergou didn't want people to know his secret, so he could only say, "Granny Wu, you don't know, I have been beaten since I was a child. The landlady beats me every day. Maybe I have become resistant to beatings, so I can always recover quickly."

When Granny Wu heard this, her eyes showed a trace of heartache, "What a poor child."

Li Ergou said, "It doesn't matter, I'm used to it. Granny Wu, is there anything I need to do? Let me chop firewood for you."

Saying that, without waiting for Granny Wu to refuse, he ran to the backyard of the martial arts hall to chop firewood for Granny Wu.

Granny Wu looked at Li Ergou's back and once again felt conflicted.

"Crack" A piece of wood as thick as a thigh was split in half. Li Ergou felt that his condition today was very good, and his strength had really increased a lot. He also found that he had grown a little taller.

He exclaimed in his heart, it turns out that being beaten has this benefit. Wait, when my strength is strong enough, let's see who can bully me.

He found that chopping firewood could increase arm strength, so he chopped all the remaining firewood in one breath.

At this time, he saw that there was no one around, took out the silver from his arms. This was what he had earned with his life. He opened it and saw that there were several pieces of silver, weighing about two taels.

His hands trembled a little, because he had never seen so much silver since he was a child, not even copper coins. This was a huge sum of money for him.

Looking at the huge sum of money in his hand, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

In fact, he understood in his heart that although this money was good, it was also a disaster. People like Huang Batian would never let him go. He would definitely try to get the money back, and therefore break with him.

Now that he has no backer in the martial arts hall, he doesn't know if he will be kicked out. If that's the case, all his plans will be ruined. Although this Huang Batian is bad, he has no choice but to rely on him for the time being.

So now is not the time to turn against him. If he really breaks with him and is sent back to Wanglong Village, it will be terrible. I'm afraid he won't be able to escape from the landlord's house.

For the sake of future freedom, he needs to be patient and he needs to work hard.
