Chapter 7: Pharmacy
The sound of footsteps approached, and soon, a shadow covered Xiaokun, making him finally see the man who had caused him to stumble.
A gentleman's suit has been replaced by a black sweater and brown casual suit. The man is probably over fifty years old, with some dirty short gray hair, gray beard and eyebrows, and the same gray eyes that Xiao Kun has never seen before.
"My guess is correct." Before Xiao Kun continued to observe, the man who was looking down at him suddenly spoke, his tone of complacency was mixed with enthusiasm, the corners of his mouth gradually opened and raised, his voice could not be suppressed and continued excitedly. : "Your body is really amazing, and you really woke up early."
"First, sir, what's wrong with me, me?" The actor Xiao Kun's expression became confused, and he asked weakly.
The man's expressions and movements remained unchanged, and he continued to look down at the child for a while, then suddenly he straightened up, raised his head and laughed ‘ha’.
looked down at the teenager again, the man kept a smile on his face, and looked at Xiaokun’s confused expression for a moment before shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's okay, kid."
After speaking, the man turned around and stood at the long table on the right wall. While he started to tinker with some bottles and cans, he said without looking back: "Wait a minute, kid, you don’t have to say anything. Just wait a while, and after a while, I will know everything I want to know from you."
Xiaokun twitched the corner of his left eye, put away the actor's expression on his face, squinted in the direction where the man was, a series of curses in his heart.
I couldn’t see what the man was doing. After a while, the child had no choice but to open his mouth and said, "What do you want to do to me?"
"Oh?" The man paused when he heard the words, then looked back at the teenager, then continued to fiddle with the job at hand, and said: "It's okay, you don't need to answer anything to me now, after all, I wouldn't treat you as a real 10-year-old. Children look at it."
"How do you know that I am ten years old?" Xiaokun's eyes flashed inexplicably, and he asked.
"There are many ways to let me know." The man didn't answer, but he said absently.
"May I ask about my destiny?" Xiaokun continued to stir up the topic: "Am I in danger?"
"It depends on how much value I will get from you, kid." The man still said without looking back.
"Well..." Taking a deep breath, Xiao Kun asked, "What do you want to know? Can you just ask me? After all, Mr., your actions make me very uneasy."
The man’s movements finally stopped, and he was silent for a moment before continuing again. At the same time, he said flatly without looking back: "I want to know a lot of things, but the most important one is how to immortalize."
"So..." At this point, the man finally looked back and said, "Child, will you tell me?"
"Eternal life?" Xiaokun said with a dazed expression: "Uh... I don't understand what you are talking about."
"Hmm..." The man chuckled at the words, shook his head slightly and said, "So kid, don't bother me, as long as a while later, I will get all the answers I want."
"But, I really don't know what you are talking about." Xiao Kun said innocently.
The man ignored it, but pulled a crucible from the side and lit it in front of him, and then poured some bottles of liquid into the crucible and started stirring.
After a while, the man stopped his movements, while observing the liquid in the cauldron, he said to himself like: "In the face of time, the human body will eventually decay, and the soul will gradually become silent, but as long as the two are Strengthen infinitely, then you will be immortal. In addition to the legendary gods, only the man'youknowwho' said that he had achieved the goal at first, but it is a pity..."
"youknowwho? I know?" Xiaokun continued to look dazed when he heard the words, and at the same time complained inwardly: "I know a ghost, I know..."
"So..." Xiaokun sighed again, and said helplessly: "Can you let me know?"
"Wait a minute, oh, okay." The man said as he poured the blue liquid in the crucible into a test tube, and took out a wooden stick from his arms and tapped the hot test tube.
turned around, holding the test tube in one hand and the wooden stick in the other. The man stepped up to Xiaokun's side, and slowly approached Xiaokun's mouth with his hand holding the test tube.
"So this is what I want to do! Can't you answer my question!" Xiaokun said quickly, and then closed his mouth firmly.
"Hum hum ..." Shen laugh loudly, the man did not attempt to break apart a child's mouth, but the liquid in the test tube, poured directly onto a small chin above-kun.
Xiaokun suddenly widened her eyes, her closed mouth opened involuntarily, and she felt that her jaw and tongue were rapidly becoming numb.
Before she became completely numb, Xiaokun struggled to say the last sentence: "What the **** are you going to do!"
Looking at Xiaokun’s weakly open mouth, the UU reading www.uukanshu.com man observed for a while, then smiled with satisfaction and nodded, retracted the test tube, turned and walked to the previous position.
As he walked, the man said, "Don't worry, kid, just to make the next thing easier and easier."
Putting the remaining half of the test tube of the liquid medicine in the test tube rack, the man turned and walked back, staring at the child at the same time and said: "Unusual physical strength, clothing that does not match the size of the clothes, cracks on the wall, and...the last The fist that fell on me..."
The man leaned over suddenly, his eyes staring at Xiaokun’s pupils became frenzied, and his tone gradually said excitedly: "I want to know the answer to all this! Perhaps, you are my true ladder on the path of longevity!"
After finishing speaking, no matter what Xiaokun's reaction was, the man straightened up and took out a small porcelain bottle from his jacket pocket. Using the straw that served as the mouth of the bottle, he cherished three drops of colorless liquid from the porcelain bottle.
Looking at Xiaokun again, the man dripped the liquid into Xiaokun’s completely out of control mouth, and said gently, “Don’t be afraid of the child. This is not a poison. It was just to prevent accidents. After all, this thing is very difficult to handle. Now, I don’t want to waste even a drop."
retracted the straw and closed the porcelain bottle. The man shook the porcelain bottle in front of Xiaokun's angry eyes, and then returned to his pocket.
Going to the wooden table on the wall again, the man picked up another crucible and continued to tinker with bottles and jars, while saying: "Patience a little longer boy, soon you will be able to speak again, you will tell me everything, right? "
"Yes."
Xiaokun didn't say a word because his mouth malfunctioned, but he responded involuntarily in his heart.
The next moment, Xiao Kun seemed to understand everything, her eyes widened in disbelief...
