Chapter 3: Jade Pendant
When he was sure that the sugar in his chest was indeed real, Li Huowang's heart thumped and subconsciously the first thought appeared in his mind. "I'm going to tell Dr. Li!"
But he hung in mid-air just as his right foot lifted up, and other thoughts flashed through his mind.
He knew that there was more than just sugar cubes inside his hallucination too, something else more valuable!
While savoring the sweetness that melted in his mouth, Li Huo Wang wandered slowly around the ward.
"This is an opportunity! An opportunity that could make Yang Na and I rich overnight! An opportunity that could even allow me to ascend in life!" Excited, he quickly determined this.
"I can't tell Dr. Li, I don't want to be sent to the lab to be sliced up, besides, this kind of thing is not under his control." Li Huowang said in his heart.
"However, we can't jump to conclusions about this matter so quickly, I need to thoroughly find out what's going on with this matter before I can do so." He secretly determined in his mind what he wanted to do.
Just as he was thinking this, the surroundings began to distort and change, and the clean and tidy ward began to recede.
Faced with this kind of thing, Li HuoWang had long been accustomed to it, and he first hurriedly put his rolls and books into his satchel and threw them to the far corner of the wall, so that they wouldn't be torn to shreds by his own self, who was caught up in the hallucination.
Then he pressed the red button next to the bed, and after a few seconds, the last thing he saw was a couple of nurses coming in and tying him to the bed with a wide cloth bag.
When he opened his eyes again, the simple, cold cave environment was back, and those physically challenged "brothers and sisters" were looking at him curiously.
Sitting up from the cold stone surface, Li Huowang once again examined everything around him with a special perspective that was incomparably real.
Although this place was an illusion, it was now a treasure trove full of treasures in his eyes.
He might not have gotten sick, but possessed extremely rare supernormal capabilities, only those quacks couldn't check it out.
"Maybe I'm not sick at all, yes, that's right, I'm not sick."
Over the years, he was really fed up with the title of mental illness, and everyone was looking at himself with strange eyes.
It was as if he ceased to be human the moment he got the disease and became an alien.
Thinking that he might be able to get rid of this title in the future, Li Huowang was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
In a very good mood, he reached out and cheerfully coiled his hand around a large bald head that had come up to him. "Haha, this is fun."
"What are you gathering for? Still not quick enough to work? Master didn't get the medicine guide he wanted right, spoiling his old man's great event of becoming an immortal, he'll skin you people alive!" Some kind of extremely annoying voice came from the entrance of the cave.
Li Huo Wang turned his head to look and realized that the person who spoke was the high and cold Taoist priest who had delivered the message before, he still had arrogance on his face, as if talking to Li Huo Wang about these medicine guides would dirty his eyes.
Li Huo Wang remembered this guy's name, this hallucination guy's Taoist name seemed to be Xuan Yang.
Facing Li Huo Wang's unbridled gawking, Xuan Yang obviously felt provoked, he shook the floating dust in his hand and walked to Li Huo Wang. "Senior Brother Li, it's really a pity that you didn't become Master's medicine guide this time."
Li Huowang was too lazy to pay attention to his eerie behavior, his attention was focused on a round jade pendant hanging from his waist.
"This thing should be an antique, right? If I send this to the real world to sell it, it must be worth a lot of money, right?"
"But how should I do it? Snatch it and put it on my chest just like that piece of candy?"
After saying a few sentences and seeing that Li Huo Wang didn't react, Xuan Yang felt that the other party was afraid, and with a contemptuous tilt of his head he turned around and left the place where this medicine guide had only stayed.
Looking at his back, Li Huo Wang's mind settled on an idea. This jade pendant was the next test subject he would use to try teleportation.
As for how to get it, it couldn't be simpler, just steal it directly at night, "That jade pendant is nice, but it will soon be mine."
A small white and somewhat reflective hand reached over from the side and gently tugged on Li Huowang's linen sleeve. A soft and sticky voice rang in his ears.
"Senior Brother Li, hurry up and work, if you don't finish it you'll have no food."
Li Huowang turned his head to see that it was the young girl with albinism that he had helped before.
After a moment's thought, he reached inside his arms and pulled out the remaining half-melted black sugar and placed it in her hand, turning to his own position and picking up the pill pounding stick to get to work.
For the time being, whether it was here at the place or over at the hospital, he decided not to do anything too out of the ordinary.
This kind of shocking thing was inappropriate no matter who he told, he himself must slowly figure out the pattern of this before making any other plans.
The day's work ended with the dull sound of pounding medicine, and late at night, listening to the snoring and grinding of teeth around him, Li Huowang, who was lying on the bunk, slowly opened his eyes.
Inside the windowless cave, he could not see a thing, Li Huowang groped his way towards the door.
He first came to where he was working and picked up a piece of lapis lazuli that he had ground himself. The slight fluorescent light it emitted would keep Li Huo-wang from walking in the darkness of the cave in the dark.
Although it was a bit too eye-catching to hold such a stone in the dark, Li Huowang did not care at all.
"Being discovered, the big deal is that I will directly retreat to the hospital, I have a way back what am I afraid of?" Walking alone in the cave he smugly muttered to himself.
This entire illusion had appeared because of him, would he still be afraid that the illusion he created couldn't? Even if he couldn't control it himself right now.
The entire cave had been developed greatly, Li Huowang had been here for a while, and he was familiar with the place.
Soon he felt his way into Xuan Yang's cave, and although it was still very simple, the large bed where a single person lay alone was enough to prove the fundamental difference between him and Li Huo Wang's medicine leads.
But let Li Huowang feel surprised Xuan Yang did not cave, people did not in the clothes but in, Li Huowang lazy care so much, right hand touched the Taoist robe in the jade pendant pulled down.
After sneaking to the outside of the cave, the fluorescent stone in his hand, Li Huo-wang carefully measured the round jade pendant in his hand.
This piece of jade pendant crystal clear, round pearl smooth, above the carving is very exquisite cloud pattern, even if he does not understand this aspect of the person can see that this jade is good jade.
The more Li Huowang looked at it, the happier he became in his heart. If he could really bring this to the real world, this piece of jade pendant could at the very least take care of his and Yang Na's four years of college tuition.
"Hehehehe~ Yang Na, Yang Na, just get ready to be a little rich girl." Li Huo Wang said wow, tucked the jade pendant into the hole and headed back.
It was all going well, but some things don't always go so well, just as he was about to reach the entrance, he took a turn on the stone staircase and collided with a group of people.
It was a group of young boys and girls about the same age as Li HuoWang, their frightened faces brightening and darkening under the illumination of the fire box in their hands.
Both sides were startled by each other, frozen in place for half a day, no one made a sound.
In the end or Li Huo Wang opened his mouth, he used the fluorescent stone in his hand to point to the crowd, wearing a hemp clothes Xuan Yang asked: "Xuan Yang senior brother, you are dressed in this way, this is sent to the material room to come?"
Among these people were not only Xuan Yang, but also the dao children in charge of other things, one of the dao children who fanned that alchemy furnace before was among them.
But no matter what they did before, they were all dressed in hemp clothes and pants now. Other than that, they had nothing with them.
At this time, Xuan Yang did not have that arrogant and complacent look during the day, and after quickly changing his expression a few times, he walked over to Li Huowang and lowered his voice.
"Go! Come along with us! Let's escape from this hellhole! The elder brother who watches the door has already gotten through."
"Go? Oh! So this is what you guys want ----"
Before the word escape could be uttered from Li Huo Wang's mouth, it was covered by Xuan Yang's dead hand.
