Li Si looked at the nine newly refreshed items in the system store. He first ruled out the Hundred Years of Life, Nine Netherworld Cat Eyes, and Premium Protective Charm. There was no way around it; these were too expensive and he simply couldn’t afford them, no matter how much he coveted them.

Then there was the Monster Transformation Water below the Nine Netherworld Cat Eyes. He could afford this, but he wouldn’t buy it. Even if it was good value for money, what was the point? Losing rationality – would he still be himself? Becoming something neither human nor ghost and living for 500 years was worse than not living at all.

Next, he looked at the two sets of talismans. One set was Low-Level Monster Exorcism Talismans, with 10 pieces, exchangeable for 120 soul points. The other set was Mid-Level Ghost Exorcism Talismans, with 3 pieces, exchangeable for 150 soul points.

Li Si thought for a moment. The Mid-Level Ghost Exorcism Talismans were definitely worth exchanging, but he restrained himself and continued to look at the remaining three items.

The Low-Level Monster Subduing Ring might be useful, but for him now, it was like chicken ribs – useless. He didn’t have any low-level monster creatures to catch at the moment.

As for the Evil-Exorcising Peach Seed, he had nowhere to plant it now, and he didn’t know how to grow it. He’d leave it for now.

Then he looked at the last item, the Ghost Creature Enhancement Liquid, and his eyes lit up. This liquid’s effect was quite good. It could be said that in the previous encounter with the Dismembering Ghost, without this item, he wouldn’t have had such an easy time.

Li Si looked at his soul points. Before entering the mountain, he had 133 soul points, then the original owner contributed 78 soul points, the Corpse Puppets 73 soul points, and the tiger spirit 75 soul points. Now he had a total of 359 soul points.

Li Si pondered briefly, then directly exchanged for the Mid-Level Ghost Exorcism Talismans, Low-Level Monster Exorcism Talismans, and Ghost Creature Enhancement Liquid. This took 294 soul points, leaving him with only 65 soul points.

Looking at the two stacks of talismans and a black bottle in his hand, he felt his heart bleeding. In one go, he was back to square one. Every soul point had been earned through life-and-death situations, and now most of them were gone in an instant.

Li Si shook his head, clearing away some negative emotions, and released Xiao Duan. As soon as Xiao Duan came out and saw the black bottle in his hand, he began to drool.

Li Si smiled and handed the Ghost Creature Enhancement Liquid to him.

Seeing Li Si offer the bottle, Xiao Duan immediately brought his head close to it, opened his mouth and sucked hard. A stream of black energy from the bottle flowed directly into his mouth.

Soon, the black energy in the bottle was completely absorbed, turning transparent and disappearing.

At this time, Li Si also called up Xiao Duan’s information in his mind.

Beheaded Ghost [Xiao Duan]

Ghost Creature Level: Low-level ghost creature

Abilities: Ghost Blowing Out Lamp; Etherealization; Long Tongue;

Current Relationship: Contracted.

Current Soul Strength: 51

The skills hadn’t changed much, but what surprised Li Si was that the severe injury status was gone. This Ghost Creature Enhancement Liquid actually had the effect of healing ghost creatures.

“Mas… ter.” Suddenly, a raw voice came from beside him.

Li Si was startled by the sudden sound, then looked at Xiao Duan and asked in amazement, “Was that you speaking just now?”

Xiao Duan tilted his head, looking at Li Si somewhat confused, then said, “Yes…”

Li Si was immediately relieved. Xiao Duan had finally evolved from a simpleton to a simpleton capable of communication.

He didn’t have high hopes for Xiao Duan’s intelligence; this was already quite good.

After all, Xiao Duan was only seven or eight years old when he died, how could he have a very high level of intelligence?

Li Si put Xiao Duan back into the death jade, then began to examine his own body. He found that his injuries only looked frightening but weren’t actually that serious.

The most severe should be the internal injury from the tiger’s swipe. Although he still felt some pain in his internal organs, it wasn’t very serious.

His fainting earlier was mainly due to extreme fatigue, not really related to his injuries.

Li Si got up from the bed and began to put on his shoes. As he did so, his face involuntarily twitched.

It was too painful!

After putting on his shoes, Li Si walked out into the courtyard. At this time, Zhang Jingcheng came over to support him.

He scanned the courtyard and found that Luo Ye and Cao Meng were not there, so he knew they had already left.

“Young Master Li, why aren’t you continuing to rest? Your body isn’t fit for exertion now,” Zhang Jingcheng said with some concern as he looked at Li Si.

Li Si smiled slightly, gently pushing away Zhang Jingcheng’s hand, and waved, saying, “My body is fine, you don’t need to worry.”

“So Young Master Li, are you preparing to go home now?” Zhang Jingcheng sighed and asked, seeing Li Si say this.

Li Si made an affirmative sound, then asked, “How much is the medical fee this time?”

“How could I charge you a medical fee? Wouldn’t that be slapping my own face?” Zhang Jingcheng waved his hand, chuckling.

Hearing Zhang Jingcheng say this, Li Si raised an eyebrow slightly, stopped in his tracks, and stared at Zhang Jingcheng.

Seeing Li Si staring at him like this, Zhang Jingcheng’s expression became a bit unnatural, and he mumbled, “Luo Ye has already paid the medical fee.”

After saying this, Zhang Jingcheng felt the atmosphere become a bit awkward and hurriedly said, “Young Master Li, please wait a moment. I’ll go get your medicine.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurriedly walked towards the front hall.

Li Si smiled and shook his head. This Zhang Jingcheng wasn’t a bad person, quite a good doctor, just a bit of a gossip and too clever for his own good.

He then thought for a moment and followed Zhang Jingcheng to the front hall.

When he reached the front hall, Zhang Jingcheng was preparing medicines. At this time, there were no other patients in the pharmacy, only a teenager of about fifteen or sixteen helping him prepare medicines.
