Immortal in The Apocalypse

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "I’m sorry. The water is limited, and in order to ensure that everyone can buy water, each person can only buy three liters at most. As for your injured team member, you can buy water from other supernatural beings with water ability."

Hearing what she said, the man sighed, thinking that today he needed to spend ten times as much to buy water for the team members. Although he felt disappointed, the man gave her three empty bottles and said, "Then give me three liters of water."

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Please wait a moment."

After listening to her words, the man looked at her confusedly. Instead of filling the empty bottles with water, Zhu Lin started to take out sweet potatoes, corn, cucumbers and tomatoes. She piled them up and took the empty bottles from the man.

After she filled the bottles, she said, "Six ordinary crystal nucleus."

Hearing her voice, the man came back to his senses. Pointing to the vegetables, he asked, "Can I buy those vegetables too?"

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Five ordinary crystal nucleus per catty."

Hearing what she said, the people behind the man suddenly became anxious. An old man who was standing behind the handsome guy asked, "Is there no limit to the amount of vegetables we can purchase?"

Zhu Lin thought for a while and said, "One person can only buy three catties of vegetables per day."

As soon as she said this, the handsome man took his three bottles of water and said, "Beauty, give me a catty of tomatoes, a catty of sweet potatoes, and a catty of cucumbers."

After speaking, he took out twenty one ordinary crystal nucleus and placed them on top of the cloth. Zhu Lin took out the ordinary weighing tool that Tu Tu gave her at noon from the Qiankun bag, and began to weigh the vegetables.

Looking at the long queue in front of the stall, Xiu Wu sat beside her and said, "Let me help you fill up the water."

Zhu Lin wanted to refuse him, but when she saw more and more people queuing up, she nodded and said, "Thank you."

With Xiu Wu’s help, her workload has been lessened by half. A few hours later, Zhu Lin saw off the last customer. Thinking of something, she looked at Xiu Wu and asked, "Didn’t you say you wanted to come here to buy something?"

Hearing her question, Xiu Wu lowered his eyes to hide his expression.He couldn’t tell her it was just an excuse because he suddenly has an uncontrollable urge to be with her, so he nodded as an answer.

"Mhm."

Zhu Lin thought for a few seconds and said, "Since you have helped me a lot tonight, I will pay for the things you want to buy tonight."

Xiu Wu thought for a moment, shook his head, smiled at her and said, "Thank you for your offer. But as a man, I can’t let a woman pay for me."

Before Zhu Lin could speak, he added: "If you really want to thank me, how about inviting me to your house for a meal?"

As soon as he said this, Zhu Lin scratched her cheek and said awkwardly: "Uh... I don’t know how to cook. You should know about this, right?"

Seeing her blushing, Xiu Wu felt his heart beat faster. He tried to slow down his heartbeat, but failed. He coughed to hide his strange emotions, and calmly said, "Don’t worry. I can cook for us."

Thinking of the delicious food he made before, Zhu Lin swallowed her saliva. The next second, she came back to her senses, shook her head and said, "No, no, no. It is I who want to thank you. How can I ask you to cook instead?"

Hearing this, the corner of Xiu Wu’s mouth curled up. He looked at her for a few seconds, before saying, "Then let’s cook together. I will teach you how to cook, and you can provide the ingredients."

Zhu Lin thought of her talent in cooking and sighed. After thinking about it, she finally nodded and said, "All right. When do you want to come over for a meal?"

Xiu Wu looked at her tired face and said, "Tomorrow at noon. Tonight, you should rest early."

"Then I will wait for you tomorrow." Zhu Lin said with a slight smile.

Xiu Wu was very happy to have secured a date with her. After Zhu Lin put away the jade basin and the cloth, Xiu Wu sent her back to her apartment, and then went out to visit Tan Wei and Ji Yang in their apartment.

A few hours later, after the sun came out, Zhu Lin woke up. Last night, Xiu Wu gave her a watch because she could no longer judge the time according to the position of the sun. After checking the time, she stretched for a while and then went to take a shower.

Her appointment with Xiu Wu was at noon, and it’s only six o’clock in the morning right now. Since there was still time, she sat cross-legged on the living room floor. Taking out all the crystal nucleus she earned in the past two days, Zhu Lin began to absorb spiritual energy from the crystal nucleus.

Two hours later, she finished absorbing all the crystal nucleus and opened her eyes. Tu Tu, who sat on the old sofa, looked at her and asked, "Master, have you broken through?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "After absorbing all those crystal nucleus, my cultivation has only increased a little bit."

Tu Tu sighed in disappointment, and asked curiously: "Master, what is your cultivation level now?"

She stood up, picked up the broom from the corner of the living room, and began to clean up the white powder while replying Tu Tu’s question at the same time: "Right now, I’m at the early stage of Qi Refining Realm."
