Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia

No matter how sad, I still have to say goodbye.

On the second day after his father came back, Xu Jiu went to the elder's house with the package packed by his mother on his back.

Saying goodbye to the serious father and the crying mother, I saw Ba again on the way.

Ba hid beside the stone next to the stone circle, saw Xu Jiu approaching, and half of his figure flashed: "Are you leaving?"

Xu Jiu nodded: "Yes."

Bamian looked at him expressionlessly: "You become very different after bumping your head."

Xu Jiu wondered, so?

"I still like the previous nine, although he is a little liar. The only thing he didn't lie to me was that he promised to go to the wasteland with me. I thought he was lying, and I knew he was lying, but I listened to him every time. " Ba narrated calmly like a robot, "He quarreled with his father in order to go to the wasteland with me, but he ran away in anger and bumped his head."

What does this mean?Xu Jiu raised his heart.

Ba stared straight at him, but changed the subject: "I will go to the wasteland in two days. I may not come back again."

Although he didn't show any emotions, Xu Jiu could sense sadness from his words, his heart was pounding, and he wanted to blurt out some words, but another consciousness kept stopping him, don't say... don't say... say it again what's the function?

"I do not……"

"I'm leaving." Ba took a deep look at him, his eyes were sharp and strange, "Take care of... your parents."

After speaking, without looking back, he strode away into the wasteland.

When he arrived at the elder's house, the servant who came to pick him up was already waiting there.There was nothing extra to say, and the two got on a simple flatbed car.

The strange beast driving the car was different from the Shata I saw last time, with a bulky body and black leather armor. Except that it had no hair, it looked similar to the yak in the previous life.A brass bell was tied to the animal's horn, jingling and jingling, and it was sent far away by the strong wind in the wasteland.A cart is just a board. I don’t know what material it is made of. It’s a bit like thin stone flakes, and it’s cool to sit on.

The servant drove the cart, raised his whip and shouted loudly, the heavy chariot beast instantly became light, and the houses and villages were thrown far away in an instant.

Xu Jiu looked back, and he could still see his father, his mother, and other people who watched him off.

Since he came to this world, he has been living under the protection of the village. This time he went out alone, small and insignificant, like a grain of sand entering this completely strange world.

The servant driving the car concentrated on driving the car, the wind blew his vest-like jacket up, the wind was strong, and the sand and dust hit people's faces, Xu Jiu, who wanted to make friends, shut up honestly, sat in the car and hugged the package tightly .

From morning to night, passing by villages on the wasteland, seeing large-scale manors and manor buildings like central towns from a distance, and then becoming more and more deserted, the wind howled all the way, and my cheeks and ears were numb and unconscious.

By the time it arrived, the setting sun had already turned into a big egg yolk, worthy of hanging on the cliff.

"Here we are." The servant turned his head and signaled him to get off.

Xu Jiu jumped down stiffly, and the servant fed a piece of meat to the chariot beast, and left in a whirlwind without saying a word.

Rubbing his blood-blocked knees, Xu Jiu looked at the place carefully.The wind blowing on the cliff made the clothes flutter violently, and a majestic stone fortress was embellished on the highest spire of the cliff, enclosing the entire cliff top in a semicircle.The entire building is composed of large cyan smooth stone bricks, and the stone steps spiral up to the highest platform.Half of the platform is closed and half is exposed, and a brown bird's nest can be seen, and the branched branches are some glowing bird feathers.

Standing under the castle, a person is only two stone bricks high.

"Such a nice house, to be lived in by birds..." Xu Jiu cursed.

He didn't know much, and thought that the world was in a backward and bloody era. Although he had gone out and wandered around the manor, what he saw was just a little bit more orderly small bungalows, some of which were poorer than his village.But looking at this building again, it is majestic and beautiful, and it is not much worse than that in the heyday of the previous life. It seems that this continent is only a big gap between the rich and the poor, and the living standard of the nobles is still quite high.

The architect of this house can build a castle on the top of the mountain. Not to mention the architectural quality, he must have learned the principle of leverage very well.

"Gaga!" A hoarse cry sounded above his head, and he saw a pure black wing covering half of the roof, vibrated, and then retracted.

This is the car beast.

Xu Jiu walked into the castle lightly.

Shimen, you can see the empty hall inside.The room is full of dust, densely covered with cobwebs, and many broken feathers and molts are hung densely.

"Crench."

It was like pushing open some taboo door. Even though the movement was very light, the sound of opening the door was still very loud in the empty castle. The dust choked the nose, and the broken bones and skins of many animals on the ground, layer by layer, would rot into dust. , A lot of "little cuties" ran past under the rustling.

Although it might be something like a cockroach or a mouse, for a long time, he didn't dare to take it lightly.

You must know that in this world, except for sunflowers, which do not need to eat, live in the sun every day, and occasionally chew the stones on the ground, all other living creatures are carnivores.

People raise sunflower beasts to feed higher-level animals, because sunflower beasts are too unpalatable and not nutritious.Then, a large number of low-level animals were eaten by middle-level animals, and middle-level animals were eaten by high-level animals, and finally a large number of delicious beasts were raised.

Therefore, although there are no plants in this world, it has formed its own unique circulation system.

Xu Jiu found a small room in the corner of the first floor of the castle.

This is probably the former utility room, narrow and hidden, slightly curved, with a small skylight at the highest part of the side wall, allowing light to shine in.

Xu Jiu threw his things on the ground, causing a cloud of dust to rise.

This room has been abandoned for a long time, except for the dust and cobwebs, there are some piles of old things, black lumps, and it doesn't look like it used to be.

This was the safest room he had found after visiting the hall.

The house is small, the door is small, and it is hidden.Not to mention that the house is easy to clean, and even large animals cannot enter.Yes, Xu Jiu would rather live in a doorway like a gopher than live in the "clean" big room of his predecessors.

The whole castle is empty and huge, only a series of stone steps hovering around the wall, the stone is solemn and elegant, with carved patterns on the corners, even if it has been in disrepair for a long time, you can still see the grandeur of the year.

The rooms are scattered around the spiral staircase. People standing in the hall can see the zenith along the carved wall.Xu Jiu looked up and saw the black wings protruding from the side of the dome. "Cuckoo" the owner of the wing moved, and some thin and soft hairs fluttered down.

That's Liche Beast, the legendary human-eating killer, Liche Beast. You can tell it's huge by looking at the wings.

It was getting darker and the sun had completely set.Xu Jiu stopped being in a daze, and hurriedly began to tidy up the house.

I found an abandoned broom in the previous house. The broom was made of feathers and had been used for many years. The feathers on it had almost fallen off, leaving only some bare poles.

Xu Jiu struggled to pick out the sundries in the house, and when the crow's smeared thing was moved away, a litter of pink cubs was revealed.It looks like a mouse, but it is obviously much bigger than a mouse. It suddenly saw the light and squeaked non-stop.It looks so tender, can I eat it?Xu Jiu thought about it carefully, picked up the stone box discarded in the hall, wiped off the floating ash on it casually, moved the litter into the box, and fastened the stone slab on it, leaving only a small gap.

He came here alone, the iceberg-like servant didn't bother to say a word, left him and left.What to eat, what to drink and how to do it are all not explained. In order to prevent starvation and death here, I have to prepare with both hands.

In addition to the cubs, there were also beetles like cockroaches, all of which crawled fast and disappeared after a while.Xu Jiu waved his hairless broom, hula-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la, sweeping-and-sweeping, and the whole room of bedbugs was wiped clean.

I checked again and again to make sure that there was nothing in the house, and it was almost dark.The walls, beams, and floors were all swept, and finally cleaned up to reveal the original patterns. Xu Jiu moved out a small stone bed from another room.

His strength is indeed much stronger. The stone bed is made of unique cold stone, not high, a bit like a short table, and after being cleaned, it is very delicate and simple.

"Huh." He spread out on the bed, staring blankly at the stars left by the window.The sky in this world is so pure. The sky at night is pure dark blue, deep like a whole piece of fine satin, dotted with big jewel-like stars and the perennial full "moon".

Xu Jiu was not sure if the thing that was two or three times bigger than the moon was the moon. It was also yellow in color, but a little reddish. It was hanging brightly in the middle of the night sky, as if it was on top of a person's head and was about to fall. .The warm radiance shines on the earth, and the vast wasteland is completely visible.

Now, a window of moonlight covers Xu Jiu's body, as silent as if abandoned by the world.I am an outsider. When I was alone, this huge strangeness and fear filled every cell in my body. The sentimentality came without warning, and my nose immediately became sour.

Xu Jiu closed her eyes and opened them again.A piece of old jerky was found from the package under the head.

Chewing quietly alone, in the huge abandoned fortress on the edge of the cliff.There is still a round of moon, and it is accompanied by the non-stop whining wind on the wasteland day and night.

Wait "Woo?"

How does this look like someone is crying?

The voice is thin and weak, sometimes absent, like a kitten.

Xu Jiu pricked up his ears vigilantly, but the voice disappeared again.With a sigh of relief, he spread his body out again, and the crying sound appeared again.

After a while, Xu Jiu rubbed his hair in agitation. He realized that he was really damn soft-hearted. He knew that there might be nothing outside, and what was worse might be a monster that could cry like a baby fish like the salamander in his previous life.

Torn between lying down and sleeping and being eaten by monsters for a long time, Xu Jiu pushed open the stone door and walked out...
