After Shen Xia said these words, she fainted. When she woke up again, it was already the morning of the second day. The sun had just risen. The golden sunlight shone on the surging black lake, which was indeed beautiful at all. No.

"How long have I... been unconscious?" Shen Xia raised her hands to cover the sun, only to find that her hands were covered with fine black lines, like tattoos.

Looking at the other hand, Kuang Zhou didn't treat Shen Xia's wound, and the hairpin was still stuck in his palm.

"It is now 6:15, and the disciples of the Medical Sect and the Fu Sect will arrive later." Kuang Zhou threw a piece of wood into the fire. He didn't know what to do with a task with a difficulty of one star. becomes so complicated.

Shen Xia was sitting cross-legged. She could feel that her body was full of spiritual energy. Except for some black lines that affected her appearance, she didn't feel anything strange for the time being. It must be that Kuang Zhou fed herself some pills after she fainted.

"Thank you," Shen Xia smiled at Kuang Zhou, "Thanks to teaming up with you this time, otherwise I don't know when I will wake up."

Before Kuang Zhou could say anything, Shen Xia took out the orb and the broken mirror from the mustard bag: "These are the two things under the lake. The orb was given to me by the phantoms of the resentful spirits. This mirror... Tsk, I caught the evil spirit when it attacked me."

Originally, Shen Xia wanted to hide the mirror fragment, but after thinking about it, she decided to let Kuang Zhou know the truth. However, the rhetoric could be "slightly modified."

The mirror fragment was stained with some blood at some point. It looked like an ordinary broken mirror, and next to the radiant orb, it looked even more... inferior.

Even if you know what kind of magic weapon this broken mirror may be, it is already in pieces and is worthless. Kuang Zhou was obviously more interested in the orb, but he knew that the income from such treasures that were not included in the mission was basically first come, first served.

"Since you got it, just keep it." Kuang Zhou knew that Shen Xia just did the task and didn't understand these unspoken rules, but he had no intention of using this to deceive Shen Xia.

"No," Shen Xia put away the broken mirror. "This orb is useless to me. Maybe it will be more helpful to you."

Shen Xia has actually observed this bead carefully. It is equivalent to a collection of all the emotions of the resentful spirits underwater, and this bead has released all the resentment on himself, so currently this bead is a hundred benefits. Harmful.

But this bead is useless to Shen Xia. Why does the sword cultivator want this? When you are fighting with others, do you throw them out to try to influence them? This bead cannot be inlaid, so Shen Xia might as well use it as a favor, since there is no alchemy practitioner in her friend list yet.

Kuang Zhou was indeed moved. This thing was indeed useful to him, not to mention that the orb, which combined the seven emotions and six desires of a person, was a good material for alchemy, and this thing could add bonuses.

It is written in ancient books that human tears alone are the best material, let alone this orb. He has never practiced elixir with this thing. When Shen Xia took it out, Kuang Zhou's eyes were glued to it. .

"Chen Xia, you may not know," Kuang Zhou still has a bottom line no matter how much he wants it. "Things obtained outside of tasks are always 'first come, first served'. There is no such thing as equal sharing. Since you got it, then It should be yours."

Shen Xia shook his head and passed the hand holding the orb forward: "But this thing is indeed of little use to sword cultivators. If it is of use to you, just take it. I will return the pills you gave me earlier. There was no return gift.”

Seeing that Kuang Zhou was still a little hesitant, Shen Xia added: "If it doesn't work, I will share 10% of whatever elixir you have developed by then."

When Kuang Zhou saw what Shen Xia had said, he no longer resisted. Just as he was about to take it, Shen Xia's hand moved back a little: "Be careful. I don't know if there is any resentment left on this orb, in case the curse is passed on." If it comes to you, then I have sinned."

Kuang Zhou immediately understood the implication of Shen Xia's words: "Are these fine black lines on your body released from this orb?"

Shen Xia nodded: "Yes, and I feel that it is very similar to the charms on the corpses underwater. Although I can no longer feel the resentment released by the orb when I hold it in my hand, it is better to be careful."

At that moment, Kuang Zhou felt that he had received a greater favor from Shen Xia. He quickly took out a wooden box from the mustard bag and placed the orb in it under spiritual control.

It seems that I have to refine it a lot before I go back. I looked at Shen Xia, whose face was stained with black lines. I think the elixir that will be refined by then will be 20% of Shen Xia's.

Shen Xia picked up the branches on the ground again and used her spiritual power to paint on the jade beach. While painting, she asked: "Will Fu Zong send people here too?"

Kuang Zhou nodded and turned on the communicator to refresh the contact with the sect: "You said there was a curse before you passed out, but I don't know what the curse you said was. I can only take pictures of these black marks on your body with a photo stone. When we came down, the sect responded quickly and said that it would send a Fu Sect disciple over to check on the situation."

"In addition," Kuang Zhou looked at the latest news, "the sect said that they underestimated the difficulty of this mission and will give us some compensation when we return to the sect."

Shen Xia stopped writing, the last news was insignificant to her, she motioned Kuang Zhou to look at the ground: "This is it, whether it is what I saw underwater or the curse on me, it is basically what this spell looks like. "

Kuang Zhou quickly took a picture and uploaded it with a photo stone. He looked at Shen Xia and asked, "How do you feel now?"

"I don't feel anything," Shen Xia smiled, "but I guess I won't be able to leave this lake too far until the curse is lifted."

Kuang Zhou also fell silent. He didn't know how to comfort Shen Xia, so he could only say dullly: "It will be solved."

Shen Xia didn't seem worried at all, and that was indeed the case. Both the Medical Sect and the Fu Sect would send people to finish the work. His mission as a forward was successfully completed, so what else did he have to worry about?

So he took out another pot from the mustard bag and put it on the fire lit by Kuang Zhou. That's it for now, let's eat first.

After staying underwater for so long, Shen Xia was a little tired both physically and mentally. This was the right time to have a bowl of steaming noodles.

In Kuang Zhou's eyes, Shen Xia was just enjoying herself in suffering, and he was already considering whether to give the elixir to Shen Xia Sancheng. But when Shen Xia asked him if he wanted a bowl, his saliva flowed out again.

The two of them were sitting on the jade beach with their faces in front of them. Even though the black water in front of them was stinky, it did not affect their appetite at all.

Shen Xia looked at the rising sun and sighed: "It's another new day."

Kuang Zhou looked at Shen Xia, then at the sun, without saying anything, and wiped the noodle soup out of the bowl.
