Nemesis is Coming - C68

I saw the boss stop mid-sentence. He thought to himself that there shouldn’t really be any treasures hidden in his house. I was afraid that he might be suspicious, so I didn’t continue asking.

I felt bored and sat at the coffee table to drink tea with Han Xifei.

The shop owner returned in less than half an hour. He told Han Xifei shamelessly, “Witch, I don’t know what kind of material these weapons of yours are, but they can be recreated using the furnace. Moreover, they must be even stronger if you were to recreate them.”

Han Xifei took out a piece of paper from her pocket and gave it to the middle aged man, and said: Just follow this blueprint and create it.

The middle-aged man looked at the blueprint for a while. Only then did he say: I’m afraid it’s a bit difficult. This material’s hardness is too high. If you want to make such a weapon …

Han Xifei interrupted him and said: How long do you need? How much is it?

The middle-aged man said, “Probably around half a month.” Money… Just give me a hundred thousand.

I took a deep breath.

Han Xifei stood up, I thought he would immediately pull out his spear and destroy the middle aged man. She said, “I’ll give you twenty days. After twenty days, I’ll give you the money.” You can get the weapons I want ready.

The middle-aged man became a little anxious and said, “Then we should at least give him a deposit, right?”

However, Han Xifei said: These three weapons are not bad, treat it as a deposit.

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said: “Alright.” But make sure you have the money in twenty days.

Han Xifei also didn’t say anything more. She walked straight to the door and I followed behind her.

The two of us went out the door and rode the Unicorn. We didn’t stay in the village and went straight back to Stone Village.

Twenty days later would be fourteen. It seemed like Han Xifei wanted to make this weapon by the fifteenth. Was it to deal with Snake Demon?

But to us humans, cold weapons are the best. That could only be used in melee combat. It was definitely not as good as guns, why would Han Xifei need to personally come to this kind of place and spend a hundred thousand to create a weapon that she basically cannot use?

I asked a question but Han Xifei told me not to ask so many things.

We rode fast and fast. In the evening, she finally returned to Stone Village. When Han Xifei arrived at the village, she told me to go back and rest. I parted with her, and when we were separated I went to my lodgings.

As I passed the village square. I saw that Luo Sha was still training those people, but those people, their messy hair had already been shaved into a bun.

They looked more spirited than before, but the clothes they wore were all different, and it made them feel like they were in a mess.

The next ten days were peaceful. My injuries are much better. However, there was still a faint pain in his abdomen.

Da Gang’s condition was much better than before. He kept yelling that he wanted to fight to the death with that Snake Demon. He didn’t know if this situation was a good thing or a bad thing.

The people that Luo Sha trained with were becoming more and more decent. Although they still could not compare with the regular army, at least they could see eye to eye.

However, Han Xifei stayed at home all day and rarely went out. She would only visit Doudou every two to three days.

On the fifteenth night, I checked Doudou’s breath as usual and found that she was breathing normally. Then, I touched Doudou’s pulse and suddenly felt that it had jumped a little.

Just when I thought that the jump was my imagination, suddenly, Doudou’s pulse jumped again.

I held her hand for a good five minutes, and her pulse jumped five times. I shook Doudou a little. She still hadn’t woken up. But I was glad that his pulse could beat, and I kept feeling that she was getting closer to the day she woke up.

I immediately went to Han Xifei’s residence. She wanted to tell him the good news. After all, she still cared about Doudou and often came to visit him.

When I ran to Han Xifei’s residence, I was stopped by two soldiers at the entrance. One of them went to report to Han Xifei.

Han Xifei walked out and I told him about Doudou’s pulse rate.

She didn’t show much surprise, but she decided to take a look anyway, and I took her all the way to my place. When she saw Doudou, she immediately went up to check her pulse.

After a minute. She turned her head to look at me, then closed her eyes and began to explore Doudou’s pulse.

At this moment, I discovered that the hand Han Xifei used to feel the pulse of Doudou was actually bandaged, how did she receive such an injury?

Han Xifei waited for around three minutes before she opened her eyes. A rare smile on her face, she said, There’s a pulse.

But my mind was on her injured hand. General, what’s wrong with your hand?

Han Xifei looked at her hand and said: I accidentally scratched it.

After saying that, she walked to the door, and without looking back, she instructed me: Take good care of Doudou.

As she walked out, her hair blew in the wind, and I saw a bruise on the back of her neck, which made me feel even more puzzled and worried.

The next day, he came here to be bored. I was wandering around again because I was hurt. Han Xifei never let me participate in any training, I just strolled around everywhere. However, he discovered a small forest to the north. I’ve never been there. Bored, I walked towards that direction.

When I reached the edge of the forest, I found that the forest was very dense and there were many thorns in it. I gave up the idea of going in to see what was inside. Just as I was about to turn back, I saw a lot of footprints. I looked in the direction of the footprints. They seemed to lead into the woods.

Thus, I followed the footprints. These footprints actually followed me to an inconspicuous corner of the forest. I went over and saw that there were no thorns, so I followed the footprints into the woods.

I followed the footprints, and I was surrounded by thorns. Only the place where the long step had taken him was free of thorns. It was obvious that someone had cut off the thorns and left a path.

I walked for about five minutes. After he found out that he had walked out of the small path. It was actually the center of the forest, and the surroundings were filled with dense forests and thorns. The only thing left was an empty space about the size of half of a basketball court.

I saw that the clearing was littered with footprints, deep and shallow, very dense. From my experience, they weren’t footprints left on normal walks, but rather footprints left on the battlefield from close combat.

Looking around, there were many tree branches that had been chopped down by swords and sabers, as well as tree bark that had been cut apart. The trees were new, but not the same, and some of them had been damaged for a long time, more or less yellowed, probably for a week or two, while others were especially new, as if they had been made only this morning.

Looking at the desolate open space, I could see that there were people fighting and practicing martial arts.

Just as I was wondering who could be here, I heard a soft sound from the thicket of brambles behind me.

I quickly turned my head and saw a dark figure about to emerge from the thorns, but I was standing in the clearing and I couldn’t even make out his face. He was already running away, and I ran after him.
