By the time school was over, it was already night time. The sun had just set, and on the edge of the dark blue sky, a trace of red could be seen rising from the bottom.
Once the Spring Festival was over, it meant that spring was not far away.
Lü Shu preferred autumn because the temperature was just right and the weather was dry.
He was weak when he was a child and was most afraid of winter. The cotton-padded clothes provided by the orphanage were good for keeping him warm, but the quilt was a little thin and there was no heater.
When he woke up in the morning, the tip of his nose and feet were icy, so he was particularly prone to getting sick and hated winter.
Watching the snow in the cold winter was something that children from rich families could do when they were full and warm.
At that time, Lü Shu would secretly take Lü Xiaoyu to the streets to buy roasted sweet potatoes to eat. They did not have much money on them, only two or five yuan. Most of the money was pocket money given by the kind-hearted volunteers who came to the orphanage.
However, a sweet potato was not expensive. Two yuan was enough for two people. Lü Shu ate less and Lü Xiaoyu ate more.
On the way home, Lü Shu met an old man selling roasted sweet potatoes. The earthen stove looked warm, and there were already a few roasted sweet potatoes on it.
He greeted the owner and directly lifted the lid of the earthen stove to look inside. He wanted to choose a well-roasted sweet potato.
Lü Xiaoyu liked to eat roasted sweet potatoes, preferably the kind that had been roasted to a golden brown and had syrup oozing out.
The old man weighed the sweet potato. "2.60 yuan, you can give me 2.50 yuan."
Lü Shu weighed the sweet potato happily. He had to tease the little girl at home tonight.
When he got home, the two snowmen in the yard had melted beyond recognition. However, the tomatoes in the plastic shed looked like they were turning from green to red. This was good news.
He opened the door with his key. "Lü Xiaoyu! Do you smell it? "
No one answered. Lü Shu was curious. Logically speaking, the little girl should have jumped out the moment she smelled the sweet potato.
He walked inside. "Lü Xiaoyu?"
He opened the door to Lü Xiaoyu's bedroom and found Lü Xiaoyu curled up in bed, looking very pale.
Lü Shu panicked and touched Lü Xiaoyu's forehead. So hot! The little girl had a fever!
At this time, Lu Xiaoyu slowly woke up. "Is the sweet potato syrup out? Don't buy the unbaked ones, they don't taste good …"
Lü Shu was annoyed. "Still thinking about the sweet potato? Why did you suddenly have a fever?"
"I washed the clothes that you have been saving for a week. The water is a little cold …" The little girl looked sickly. She was not as lively and cute as she used to be. Instead, she looked more fragile like a child.
"Why did you wash clothes on such a cold day?" Lü Shu complained. He found a thermometer from the bedside table. "Put it under your arm."
Lü Xiaoyu obeyed obediently. Five minutes later, Lü Shu took a look at the thermometer and frowned. It was 39 degrees!
He was about to get the common medicine at home when he suddenly realized that he didn't need to use normal methods to solve this problem.
Lü Shu had considered this problem before. If he had a way to help Lü Xiaoyu cultivate, would he let Lü Xiaoyu cultivate?
The answer was yes, he definitely would.
If cultivation could prolong one's life, he could live for a long time, but Lü Xiaoyu could only live for a few decades before leaving early. Lü Shu didn't want to see such a scene.
Moreover, he felt that if Lü Xiaoyu could also cultivate, it would be interesting for them to keep each other company.
Although he didn't have any extra cultivation methods for now, he could help Lü Xiaoyu get them in the future.
Whether it was the cultivation method of the Daoist in the video or something else, Lü Shu could get them.
But now, Lü Xiaoyu could eat the Marrow Cleansing Fruit. Even if it didn't improve her bone structure, it could at least make her body healthy!
The word "healthy" was what Lü Shu felt the most after eating the Marrow Cleansing Fruit!
At present, Lü Shu had gained 4109 negative emotion points because of the special encounter today. This was a huge sum of money for him. It should be more than enough for him and Lü Xiaoyu to draw a Marrow Cleansing Fruit each.
Lü Shu now felt like a nouveau riche who had nowhere to spend his money. Spending money felt good …
The Star Fruit could slow him down. Even if he didn't have the Star Fruit, he could still accumulate it through normal cultivation. It was replaceable.
And the Marrow Cleansing Fruit was irreplaceable. Lü Shu didn't have other methods to achieve this effect.
Draw!
Then, when Lü Xiaoyu was lying on the bed, he saw Lü Shu's expression change. It felt like he was going to drop something at any time …
"Lü Shu, why is your face so black?"
"Maybe I'm just an unlucky guy." Lü Shu replied while gritting his teeth.
I might have met a fake system!
But the first ten draws were all thanks for playing! It wasn't until the eleventh draw that another Marrow Cleansing Fruit appeared!
The lowest reward for the lottery was to get a Marrow Cleansing Fruit. If he and Lü Xiaoyu ate it to their limit, could they sell it? Many people would need to improve their bone structure, right?
There's nothing wrong with exchanging things that you don't need for money that you need to live.
But he wasn't sure if the lottery system would give him a cultivation technique like Little Star. Although it was embarrassing to sing it, as long as he could cultivate, it was nothing to be embarrassed about …
He didn't know if this thing had an expiration date. Of course, Lü Shu wasn't so extravagant that he could casually use a Marrow Cleansing Fruit to test it …
He took out a Marrow Cleansing Fruit and handed it to Lü Xiaoyu. "Eat it, it's for you."
When Lü Xiaoyu saw the Marrow Cleansing Fruit, her eyes were glued to it. This thing looked too good, and she could tell it was delicious just by looking at it.
She grabbed the fruit and stuffed it into her mouth. Then, she exclaimed, "Lü Shu, what did you give me? Why is it gone in my mouth!"
Lü Shu ignored her and carefully observed the changes in Lü Xiaoyu's body. The moment she ate it, she was already sweating profusely. Lü Xiaoyu's complexion instantly changed from a fragile pale to a healthy complexion. It was amazing!
This proved that the fruit he exchanged could be eaten by others. That meant he could sell it.
Even if he didn't sell it to Awakened ones, he could sell it to those who were seriously ill? He just didn't know how many illnesses this Marrow Cleansing Fruit could cure.
He took his body temperature again and it had returned to normal. Lü Xiaoyu seemed to have realized something. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Lü Shu. "Lü Shu, have you awakened?"
Although he had never heard of anyone having the ability to produce fruits, such a magical thing must be related to Awakened ones.
Lü Shu thought about it. "I don't know if I am considered an Awakened, but I am definitely not any weaker than them. Do you want to be an Awakened?"
