Chapter 58
Although he was a bit afraid of the phonograph, Li Li Banfeng's sleep quality in the Personal Residence had always been very high.
Waking up from sleep, he lit a candle, pressed the pocket watch, and it was ten o'clock again.
Li Li Banfeng was a bit thirsty, leaned over to find water to drink under the bed, but the bucket was gone again.
Before going to sleep last night, Li Li Banfeng specifically went to the river to fetch a bucket of water, boiled it, let it cool, and put it by the bed; waking up from sleep, it was gone again.
The house spirit loves cleanliness; Li Li Banfeng knew this.
But when you tidy up things, shouldn't you also take care of my living habits?
Li Li Banfeng held the candle, looked around for the bucket, searched for a long time, but couldn't find it.
Not finding the bucket didn't matter much; if it really didn't work, he could just buy another one.
But there was something else that was gone.
The copper lotus was gone!
Li Li Banfeng's veins immediately jumped!
Last night, the copper lotus refined Rong Jin'an's corpse into two red elixirs; Li Li Banfeng personally collected the lotus seeds, watched the copper lotus close its petals in the corner, how could it disappear in the blink of an eye?
Was it tidied up by the phonograph?
Where was it tidied to?
He searched the whole room several times, but couldn't find a trace.
Except for the phonograph, the tables and chairs taken from the residential cultivator old lady's room were gone, and the various medicinal herbs taken from the poison cultivator Decai's room were also gone.
"My lady, where did you put the things?"
The phonograph didn't respond.
Li Li Banfeng's heart sank, and he had a bad guess.
Is there another possibility that these things weren't taken away by the phonograph?
Is it possible that someone entered the Personal Residence last night?
How did he enter the Personal Residence?
Did he have a key?
Was the key I hid outside picked up by someone?
Thinking of this, Li Li Banfeng broke out in a cold sweat.
Go out and take a look?
No!
If someone picked up the key, entered the Personal Residence, took the copper lotus, and left, why didn't he kill me?
He might not have dared to kill me in the Personal Residence because the phonograph was there.
If I go out now, there might be a group of people waiting for me outside.
But I can't stay in the Personal Residence forever; there is no food or water here, and I can't hold on for too long.
Can't act rashly right now; first determine if someone really entered the Personal Residence.
Li Li Banfeng held the candle holder and carefully checked the whole room; even if the phonograph loved cleanliness and cleaned up often, if someone had entered or left, they would always leave some traces.
He didn't find any traces, but he found an incredible thing.
On the wall opposite the room door, Li Li Banfeng found a door.
The color of the door was the same as the wall; one had to observe carefully to discover the extremely inconspicuous door hinges and door cracks.
What was behind this door?
Would it lead to another world?
Would there be unknown creatures living inside?
Is it possible that it's another me?
Li Li Banfeng was considering whether to push the door open and take a look, when the phonograph suddenly rang, startling Li Li Banfeng.
Sss! Sss! Sss!
"Spring has arrived, green fills the window,
The big girl is embroidering mandarin ducks under the window,
Suddenly a ruthless stick,
Beats the mandarin ducks to different sides!"
This is "Song of the Four Seasons."
This song is very popular in Yaowang Gou, and it is said to be very popular throughout Puluo Continent.
"Why are you suddenly singing this song?" Li Li Banfeng asked directly.
Sss! Sss! Sss!
The phonograph continued to sing:
"Summer has arrived, willow threads are long,
My husband is greedy for sleep and won't get out of bed,
Running around day and night to add to the family property,
I'll add a room for my official."
She changed the lyrics again.
Add a room, what does this mean?
Li Li Banfeng muttered to himself: "Is she adding a concubine for me?"
Sss~~
A long whistle, a mass of steam rushed over, scalding Li Li Banfeng until he was red all over.
A bit painful, just consider it a steam bath.
A room door suddenly appeared in the room; this "room" naturally didn't refer to a concubine, but to adding another room to the Personal Residence.
What kind of room?
Li Li Banfeng pushed the door open and took a look.
A room exactly the same as the previous Personal Residence.
The size and shape were the same, just with fewer furnishings.
Inside there was a bucket, a table, two chairs, a cloth bag, and the copper lotus placed on the table.
The phonograph specifically tidied these things into another room.
Li Li Banfeng's mouth was wide open, unable to close for a long time.
The fact that the phonograph could tidy up things didn't surprise Li Li Banfeng; she had always done housework very well before.
What really surprised Li Li Banfeng was that she could further expand this shelter!
The Personal Residence is a shelter created by a traveling cultivator for himself.
Judging from the peddler's initial description, this traveling cultivator's level was extremely high.
And the phonograph could actually further expand this shelter.
What level is the phonograph?
Amidst his astonishment, Li Li Banfeng discovered another bizarre thing.
The copper lotus was open, with a lotus seed inside.
Where did this lotus seed come from?
Amidst his surprise, Li Li Banfeng discovered that the cloth bag was also open.
The cloth bag contained the medicinal herbs Decai used to refine poison; Li Li Banfeng took the cloth bag and looked at it carefully, and nearly half of the medicinal herbs inside were missing.
Based on the situation in the room, Li Li Banfeng deduced the situation that happened last night.
The phonograph didn't know what method she used to expand a new room in the Personal Residence.
She put the bucket, copper lotus, tables and chairs, and cloth bag into this room; when putting the cloth bag, she didn't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but she spilled the medicinal herbs out.
The copper lotus saw the medicinal herbs and had a reaction, refining the medicinal herbs into elixirs, which was basically consistent with the process of it refining Snake-Pattern Elixirs.
The remaining medicinal herbs, because the medicinal properties weren't enough, the copper lotus didn't take a fancy to them, so it discarded them.
The deduction was reasonable, and he didn't know what kind of elixir the copper lotus would refine this time.
Li Li Banfeng picked up the lotus seed, placed it in his palm, and the copper lotus automatically closed.
Not long after, the lotus seed burst, and three green elixirs exploded out.
What use do these three green elixirs have?
A fishy and bitter smell made Li Li Banfeng frown.
Poison cultivators all use poisonous things; these three elixirs must also be poisonous, so Li Li Banfeng didn't dare to keep them in his palm for a long time and hurriedly found a wallet to collect the elixirs.
The remaining medicinal herbs had been screened by the copper lotus; since the copper lotus thought they were useless, he simply threw them away.
With an extra room, the space of the Personal Residence became larger, and Li Li Banfeng was in a great mood, deciding to decorate the two rooms.
Li Li Banfeng called the newly expanded room the "outer chamber."
Li Li Banfeng called the original room the "main room."
The main room couldn't be too crowded, and the outer chamber couldn't be too empty.
Li Li Banfeng first moved the bathtub to the outer chamber; this thing took up quite a bit of space.
Besides the bathtub, what else could be moved?
That long spear, Li Li Banfeng didn't know how to use it, so he received it into the outer chamber first.
Anything else?
Feather duster, this isn't suitable for the main room.
Anything else?
It seems...
Gone.
The main room was so crowded before, but now with the outer chamber, it seems there aren't that many things that need to be organized...
Sss!
The phonograph sprayed a puff of steam, looking exactly like the sound of a sneer.
Li Li Banfeng stared: "Are you laughing at me? Laughing at me for being poor?"
The phonograph continued to sing "Song of the Four Seasons":
"A hundred days of grace for a husband and wife,
How would your little slave dare to laugh at you, husband,
Every stitch and every thread, your little slave takes to heart,
Just follow your husband and divide it carefully."
The lyrics were sincere, but the singing was full of mockery!
Li Li Banfeng gritted his teeth: "Just you wait, when I buy a house full of good belongings, I'll blind your big horn!"
Sss! Sss!
The phonograph mocked Li Li Banfeng twice.
Li Li Banfeng was very angry, just about to go out, when he heard the phonograph sing again:
"Your little slave's infatuation is long,
Sending a layer of cultivation to my lover,
A hundred flavors of exquisiteness on the tip of the nose,
Golden eyes and autumn hairs distinguish yin and yang~~"
Wait!
Li Li Banfeng returned to the phonograph's side: "What did you just mean by 'a layer of cultivation'? Does it mean I have a layer of residential cultivation?"
The phonograph didn't answer.
Li Li Banfeng said again: "Residential cultivation without a house spirit is impossible to reach a level; you gave me a layer of cultivation, does it mean you are already my house spirit?"
The phonograph still didn't answer.
"Are you really willing to follow me? Actually, following me is quite good; I can earn money and support the family, and I will definitely not treat you badly."
Sss!
The phonograph sneered.
"Don't look down on me; I'm a person with a net worth of over a million now."
Sss!
The phonograph sprayed another puff of steam.
She's laughing at me again?
Forget it, I won't argue with her about this little thing.
"You just said I already have a layer of residential cultivation, are there two more skills?"
The phonograph didn't speak.
"'A hundred flavors of exquisiteness on the tip of the nose', does it mean my sense of smell will become particularly developed?
I discovered it before; I could smell some poisons, now that I have a level, is my nose even sharper?
What does 'Golden eyes and autumn hairs distinguish yin and yang' mean? Does it mean I have fiery eyes?
Can distinguish yin and yang, does it mean I can distinguish ghosts?
Is this a technique that all residential cultivators have, or is it your unique technique?
My lady, don't ignore me!
Say something, don't always make me talk to myself, making me look like a mental patient."
Sss-sss~
The phonograph sneered twice again.
Li Li Banfeng was angry: "My lady, why do you always mock me?"
A mass of steam drifted over, polishing the mirror on the table.
What does it mean, let me look in the mirror myself?
Li Li Banfeng looked in the mirror, and his two eyes instantly widened.
He had a face full of heavy makeup!
Deep black eyebrows.
Deep purple eyeshadow.
Bright white foundation.
A pair of bright red cherry lips.
This was much more enchanting than the makeup of an ordinary woman!
If Li Li Banfeng went to live-stream with this face, he could attract tens of thousands of fans overnight!
Li Li Banfeng said angrily: "Who did this? My lady, was it you?"
Sss-sss~
Clang-clang-clang~
The phonograph sang: "Oh my~ husband wronged your little slave, this was done by that bitch Blood-Containing!"
Li Li Banfeng was stunned: "Blood-Containing pendulum? Why did she do this?"
The phonograph recited: "This is innate; her soul was eaten by me, leaving only some spirituality; this bitch is born to love dressing up; you've used the pendulum once, so you have to be dressed up once!"
Li Li Banfeng looked at the pendulum and said: "Can this bitch still be wanted?"
Sss-sss~
The phonograph said softly: "Wanted, wanted, husband, all magic treasures in the world have to pay a price to be used; she just loves to dress you up, this price is not worth mentioning."
Li Li Banfeng scratched his scalp: "What does it mean to pay a price to be used?"
PS: Dear readers, it's the weekend, talk to Sala, or Sala will get sick.
