Chapter 1490: Jin Fugui's Ability
Jin Fugui's Ability
"..." Chu Muyun hesitated for a long time before finally speaking,
"Thank you... but... I am just preparing to write a letter to the higher-ups, saying I won't participate in this Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path task."
"?" The smile on Red Heart 8's face instantly froze, "Why??"
Red Heart 8 seemed to have realized something, and her expression immediately became ugly. Her gaze continuously scrutinized Chu Muyun in front of her, her tone extremely serious: "Did the illness on your body worsen? Where are you feeling unwell right now??"
"No." Chu Muyun waved his hand, "It has nothing to do with my body... It's just that compared to the Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path, I have another place I want to go to more."
"?"
Red Heart 8 was somewhat puzzled, "You are a Path of the Physician possessor, if you don't go to the Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path, where else do you want to go?"
Chu Muyun smiled slightly, but did not answer.
"Is your body really okay?"
"I'm fine, rest assured."
"Then for the Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path, I'll go with them?"
"Mm." Chu Muyun paused for a moment, "But it's hard to say. If the Red King doesn't agree to my request, I might still have to go with you guys..."
"You are the one who personally recruited that person into the Dusk Society. No matter what, he wouldn't go so far as to refuse your request, right?" Red Heart 8 said suspiciously.
Chu Muyun shook his head:
"It wasn't me who recruited him into the Dusk Society, but rather he inherently belonged to the Dusk Society... Even without me, he would still enter the Dusk Society."
"But you are, after all..."
Red Heart 8 hesitated to speak, "Forget it, anyway no matter where you go, pay attention to safety."
"The one who should pay attention to safety is you, right? You aren't like me, you don't have any frontal Combat Power. Even the Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path has risks to guard against."
"Aiya, I know, does a Master still need you, this Disciple, to teach her?" Red Heart 8 waved her hand, "Then I'm leaving. Write a letter to find me if anything comes up."
"No problem."
With Red Heart 8's departure, the room fell into a dead silence once again.
Chu Muyun stood in front of the door for a long time, then slowly turned around and walked towards the living room. The gentle breeze rolled in from a gap in the open window, lightly brushing and swaying the curtains on both sides. On the simple desk in front of the window, an old photograph was placed quietly.
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Chu Muyun coughed lightly, walked to the front of that desk, and raised his hand to slowly pick up the photograph.
Looking at the black and white figure in the photograph, a trace of complexity flashed through his eyes.
"We..."
"Will meet again."
...
The shimmering river flowed silently along the city under reconstruction.
Three figures stood under the tattered Bridge Underpass, looking at the shabby and simple "residence" before their eyes, the corners of their mouths twitching slightly... Jiang Xiaohua tentatively raised a hand and poked the hen surrounded in the scrap iron "chicken coop". The latter immediately let out a sharp "squawk", flapped its wings and flew out of the chicken coop, cursing while running towards the distance.
"...Jin Fugui, you usually live here?" Jian Changsheng looked at that simple abandoned bed and couldn't help but ask.
"Yeah." Jin Fugui answered matter-of-factly. He thought about it and added, "Of course, I don't only have this one property... When the situation was at its best, I basically had a place in the Bridge Underpasses of all major domains! It's just that now... uh... the general environment is bad, so I only have three properties left in Spirit Void, Tianshu, and Cangyun."
Hearing the word "property", Sun Bumian's expression was incomparably strange. He subconsciously started rummaging over his body, trying to find some small change to give alms to this outrageously miserable Dusk Society member.
Compared to him, Jian Changsheng could be considered a wealthy man!
"I'm sorry... a chicken ran away." Jiang Xiaohua pointed at the hen he poked flying and said softly, like a child who had made a mistake.
Jin Fugui waved his hand carelessly, "It's fine, it'll still come back to eat at night."
"...?"
"Look, as you can see, I really can't fit three people here... oh, those who like sleeping in the dirt don't count." Jin Fugui dug out a Broken Bowl from who knows where, "Now I'm going out to work, do as you please."
After saying that, Jin Fugui walked towards the street without looking back.
Jian Changsheng and the other two looked at each other in dismay.
They thought Jin Fugui was poor, but they never thought he wasthispoor... One must know, the monthly salary of the Dusk Society was a large sum of money. They truly couldn't imagine how Jin Fugui, under such circumstances, still managed to make himself this poor.
Facts proved that there were indeed many good people in the Tianshu Domain. Just a few steps after the tattered Jin Fugui walked out, a Mother and daughter passed by on the street.
Seeing Jin Fugui's appearance, the girl seemed somewhat unable to bear it...
She tugged at her Mother's hand and said something.
Subsequently, the Mother still helplessly took out a Copper Coin and handed it to the girl. Then the girl trotted forward and threw the money into the Broken Bowl in Jin Fugui's hand... She didn't say a word, seeming somewhat restrained and also a bit scared, hurriedly running away after throwing the money.
"Thank you, little beauty!" Jin Fugui grinned, shouting at the top of his lungs at the girl's back, "Little beauty, you are such a good person, you will definitely be safe and sound in the future!"
As his voice fell,
That Copper Coin in Jin Fugui's hand gently shook... In the next second, it vanished without a trace.
Somewhere in the unseen world, it was as if some power pierced through the void and directly burrowed into the girl's back. At the same time, Jin Fugui's own Spiritual Power also imperceptibly grew a tiny bit...
"...Hm???"
Sun Bumian seemed to have noticed something, and astonishment surfaced in his eyes behind the Round Sunglasses!
He looked at the girl whose fortune had increased, then turned his gaze to the grinning Jin Fugui. His expression instantly became incredibly wonderful!
"This Seven of Hearts... has some skill??"
"Ah?" Jian Changsheng couldn't detect anything unusual at all, and nodded blankly, "Oh, he is indeed very formidable... Ordinary people would find it very difficult to survive in such a harsh environment. In a sense, he's even better at surviving than me."
"No, you didn't understand what I meant."
Jian Changsheng didn't understand, but Sun Bumian was different. He was the incarnation of an Auspicious Omen, and his perception towards luck and fortune was extremely sharp. He clearly knew how exaggerated the thing Jin Fugui did just now was... Even after living for thousands of years, he had never seen such a special ability.
Sun Bumian rummaged over his body for a long time but couldn't find any money, so he could only turn his head and say to Jian Changsheng:
"Give me some money."
"..."
Although Jian Changsheng mumbled a few complaints, he still handed the money to Sun Bumian. The latter took the money and immediately ran to the side of Jin Fugui, who was sitting on the ground at the edge of the street.
Seeing Sun Bumian coming, Jin Fugui was also somewhat puzzled. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, Sun Bumian threw a Silver Coin into his bowl.
Jin Fugui was startled and looked up blankly...
The two looked at each other in dismay.
The air just remained silent for a long time,
Finally, it was still Sun Bumian who actively spoke up:
"Aren't you going to bless me with something?"
"???"
