Chapter 119 Pain Relief
Gilan returned to Miss Sparrow’s door again.
After the three people left Brak City and traveled a long way, they stopped by this small hotel for a temporary rest. Unluckily, they found that there were only two rooms left.
In desperation, Gilan had no choice but to let old Charles live in one room, while he made do with the sofa in Miss Sparrow's room for the night, taking care of her.
Waiting quietly for a few seconds, he caught Miss Sparrow's steady breathing with his excellent hearing. After confirming that she had fallen asleep, he gently pushed the door open and entered.
Ji Lan touched the darkness and quietly sat on the sofa.
Then, he counted his belongings.
He took out five wallets from his alchemy leather pocket, one of his own and four direct descendants of the Lewis family.
Open the four wallets of different styles, take out the belongings inside, and dig out some coins of Price and Merang, totaling 82 Caesars and 159 pfennig.
The direct descendants of the Louis family are all young ladies, and they always carry large sums of cash with them so that they can go out for fun, but now it all belongs to Gillan.
Immediately afterwards, he took out a stack and a roll of two large-denomination bills.
A stack of banknotes came from the safe of Louis' home, 1,300 Caesars, brand new and straight. A roll of banknotes was in Mr. Stork's leather bag, containing nearly 500 Caesars.
Gilan summed up all the banknotes, totaling 2227 Caesars.
There are more than 200 penny, as well as a handful of large and small coins, not counting.
This is a huge sum of money, and it is also the guarantee for Gilan's survival after arriving in the capital.
This money can provide him with many conveniences and avoid a lot of trouble.
There were just a lot of banknotes, and the small wallet Jilan bought before couldn't hold them at all, so he chose a black rectangular plaid leather wallet to hold the money.
I don’t know which of the four Louis siblings this belongs to.
After closing the wallet and putting it back into the alchemy pocket, Gillan took out the rest of the valuables. Such as silver lighters, gold watches, gold bars and some jewelry.
These are all things looted from the direct descendants of the Lewis family, but there is no way to sell them for the time being. We can only wait until we arrive in the capital and then find a way to sell them all.
Gilan packed these valuables in a small paper bag and put them away in his alchemy bag.
While putting the paper bag away, his hand suddenly touched a few cold coins at the bottom of the alchemy bag. After a moment of hesitation, he took them out.
These are three gold coins.
Lie quietly in the palm of his hand.
Carved with bird patterns of storks, oystercatchers and seagulls.
bite.
Jilan took out his snow owl gold coins, put them together, then put his fingers together and clenched his palms tightly.
There was a clanging sound outside the window, and the rain was pouring.
He was out of breath for some reason.
‘Beautiful! ’
Ji Lan's eyes narrowed, and he began to recall the contents of "Iron Thorn Meditation Method" in his mind.
The color number "63" in the corner of his sight dropped to "53".
The proficiency of the meditation method was immediately improved to the "Seven Thorns".
Ke Jilan had no intention of stopping at all.
‘Banlan, continue! ’
The colored number "53" fell again and turned into "43".
‘Go on! ’
‘Continue! ! ’
Finally, the colored numbers hit rock bottom, with only the single digit “3”.
And Jilan also realized that the meditation method had reached the highest level of proficiency that could no longer be improved, the "Twelve Thorns".
He took a deep breath, held the gold coins in his hands, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and closed his eyes in the darkness.
Jilan began to visualize the big black iron ball.
Watch it go from still to slow rotation, to squirming on the surface and bulging small bags.
In my ears, the noisy wind and rain gradually faded away.
The "pity" emotion in his heart reached its peak. It was at this moment that the squirming black iron ball seemed to have accumulated infinite power, reached the threshold, and suddenly exploded!
Twelve black iron spikes bloomed like this!
Like a sea urchin, it suddenly pierced into his mind!
Gilan’s expression changed dramatically!
His eyes instantly glazed over, and the surge of phantom pain directly overwhelmed his consciousness. Everywhere in my body, I felt nothing but pain.
Gilan began to twitch involuntarily, and veins bulged on his face. Even his facial muscles were beating, as if his face was constantly changing, which was strange and terrifying.
pain!
It hurts so much! !
This phantom pain even exceeds the limit that ordinary people can bear! After receiving such terrible pain, the brain instinctively cuts off Gillan's consciousness and makes him faint.
Kejilan recalled the scene of the war in his confusion.
Recalling that white dream.
The three figures walked straight into the fog and never came back.
The pain deep in my soul is superimposed on the phantom pain at this time.
At this moment.
Instead, Gilan fell into a state of extreme emptiness and confusion.
All pain is gone.
He felt like he was floating.
Look down.
My body is sitting cross-legged on the sofa, with my head hunched, my expression dull, tears, tears and saliva flowing out, like a dementia patient.
Gilan turned to look out the window again.
The heavy rain seemed to have stopped, like a photo.
There was dead silence all around.
This state did not last long. After about a few minutes, Gilan slowly fell and regained control of his body.
At this moment, the training of the meditation method also ended.
He raised his head slightly, only to feel that his brain was extremely tired and he could hardly open his eyes. But at the same time, I can clearly feel that my perception has become sharper.
‘The gnosis has improved a bit. ’
Jilan took out a handkerchief and wiped the secretions from his face expressionlessly.
He sighed secretly.
Originally I planned to use the phantom pain of meditation to suppress the pain in my soul, but I didn’t expect that a combination of circumstances made the practice of “Twelve Thorns” go so smoothly.
‘Go to sleep, you’ll be fine when you fall asleep. ’
Ji Lan took advantage of this fatigue to find a comfortable position, leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes.
After a while, he fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, six o'clock sharp.
Jilan opened her eyes on time.
He sat up.
The rain outside the window has stopped and the sky is bright.
Involuntarily, Jilan's mood also improved.
He first quietly observed Miss Sparrow and found that she was not awake yet, so he quietly went to the bathroom and washed herself briefly.
Soon, wearing a felt hat and windbreaker, he walked out of the room.
As soon as I came out, I bumped into old Charles walking out of the next room.
"Good morning, Master."
When Old Charles saw Jilan, his expression changed.
"I also plan to go downstairs to have breakfast first, and then bring one up for you and Miss Aurora."
"Don't go to such trouble, let's go down together."
Gilan shook his head and said .
After hearing this, Old Charles did not force anything, so the two of them went downstairs together, ordered two ordinary breakfast packages at the front desk, and then sat in a corner to wait.
The set meal was mediocre, a bacon sandwich, a small bowl of mashed potatoes, and a cup of cheap coffee, worth 9 plums.
The price is a bit expensive, but the hotel is located on the side of the main road, so the high price is understandable. After all, it is passers-by like them who are being ripped off.
While waiting for the meal, Old Charles opened the cigarette case and handed one over. Unexpectedly, the young master who was still willing to take cigarettes before raised his hand and refused.
Old Charles was startled, and then he took off the cigarette from his mouth and put it back into the cigarette case, not intending to continue smoking.
"Master, we have left Kawo Prefecture and entered Best Prefecture. We will probably arrive at the capital, Muse Siti, the day after tomorrow in the afternoon."
Old Charles said.
Jilan nodded, thought for a while, and said:
"Tell me about the Farhan family."
