Chapter 58 The Temptation of Six Million

Lian Chengyue woke up.

He was awake, but not fully awake, so he huddled in the carriage, his eyes blank and alert, looking dazed.

The pale little face was burned pink, and the eyes were half open, looking fragile but also a bit unconcealedly gloomy.

Ren Miao said: "He doesn't seem to know why he is here."

Not only do I not know that I am here, I don’t even know who I am.

I see, the little rascal got confused because of the burn.

Ning Mingmei: "It's almost time to take the medicine. Have you given it to him?"

Along the way, Ning Mingmei only fed the medicine once. The remaining times were fed by several disciples and Ren Miao in turns.

Ren Miao was a little embarrassed. She said: "I just gave him medicine, but he didn't take it."

Not only did he refuse to take the medicine, he also struggled so much that he almost spilled it. Ren Miao looked at him half dead and wondered where Lian Chengyue got the strength from.

——It would be better to stay dizzy. It is easier to take care of a child when he is unconscious.

The girl thought kindly, but bursts of black air were coming out from behind her without her realizing it.

Gui Ruoxue frowned and glanced at the girl. As the girl's former mother-in-law, he somehow felt that after following Ning Mingmei for a few days, this simple girl had become a little weird.

Ning Mingmei knew that Ren Miao was an honest child. She said it was almost knocked over - that probably meant it had already been knocked over, and she had to pick up the pills one by one on the ground.

"Okay, you go down, I'll do it." Ning Mingmei said.

Don't make things difficult for the little girl.

He took the paper bag from Ren Miao, took a look at it, and got into the car.

The amount of powder in the paper bag was about one-fifth less. It seemed that Ren Miao still tried hard to pour some in.

Lian Chengyue was probably really weak and didn't even hear someone coming.

Ning Mingmei didn't waste any time. He just opened the paper bag, grabbed the man and started to force him to drink.

He pinned the man down, pinched his mouth and clamped down on his throat, with an attitude that seemed to want to kill him, and with such ruthless movements, he finally forced the entire packet of powder into his mouth.

The little boy rolled his eyes after taking the medicine, looking as if he was nauseated. “Cough cough cough… disgusting!”

Ning Mingmei: "You dare to vomit?"

Little boy: ...

Now I really don’t dare to vomit. The little boy crawled over and looked at him viciously.

It's just like a little stray dog ​​being bullied on the roadside on a rainy day.

Ning Mingmei reached out his hand and found that the little boy actually trembled, and then he couldn't help but gag due to the bitterness.

?

Is the reason why Lian Chengyue doesn’t take medicine because he thinks it tastes bitter?

Lian Chengyue: “Uh——”

"Don't vomit." Ning Mingmei directly reached out and pressed his face, pressing him against the wall of the car. "The medicinal materials are very expensive. If you dare to vomit, it will delay my progress. I will make you take the medicine again."

Lian Chengyue: ...

The little bad boy's eyes turned red. His chest heaved violently, half from the bitter medicine and half from the persecution from Ning Mingmei. Ning Mingmei saw him glaring at him fiercely, so he asked, "You glare at me again?"

The little rascal continued to glare at him fiercely.

Ning Mingmei: "Hmm?"

Continue to stare... until tears come out.

I have always been a little bad boy who pretends to be an adult to the point of overdoing it. Now I stop pretending, and I am a little fragile and childish.

I was so angry that I cried.

It's a pity that there is no camera, but Ning Mingmei really wants to take a picture of it - when Lian Chengyue Dragon King returns a hundred years later and is about to stab him as in the original plot, he will put it on the road where Lian Chengyue kills all the way and play it in a loop.

——Ning Mingmei never thought that there would be any possibility of reconciliation between herself and the male protagonist of the original text.

——As long as the sword bone is still in his body. Lian Chengyue, who is determined to break through Tianmen, will definitely come to take it.

Because they are all absolutely rational leaders.

What’s the point of being respectful to Master, Friend and Disciple Lian Chengyue? Will we wait until he gets the sword bone and then resurrect him? ——Perhaps, this possibility really exists.

But Ning Mingmei refused. He would not allow himself to suffer any pain.

However, the sight of this naughty kid being taught a lesson, breaking his defenses and trying to yell and curse, is much more refreshing than the sight of a bratty kid pretending to be an elegant adult.

Facing the little boy with red eyes crying fiercely, Ning Mingmei was about to withdraw his hand, but he felt something unusual moving under his hand.

He said: "If you dare to bite me or scold me, I will make you spit out the medicine and then let you take it again."

The fingers left Lian Chengyue's mouth. Lian Chengyue's teeth chattered, but he actually didn't bite down.

Even though his brain was confused, the hero still had the instinct to sense danger.

In other words, he felt that Ning Mingmei could really get this done.

Ning Mingmei gave his evaluation—a “tsk” sound.

It seems that the sick Lian Chengyue is really broken. Doesn't he claim to be an elegant upper-class person who despises this kind of "childish behavior" the most?

It's essentially just a little wild dog.

He shook his hands, his pale fingers had been pressing the other's mouth too hard, and now the fingertips were a little pink. As he shook his hand, he glanced at Lian Chengyue - the other party was shrinking in the position farthest away from him, still glaring at him fiercely.

Ning Mingmei: "Why are you glaring at me? The one who doesn't take medicine is a puppy. Does a puppy want to bite people?"

Lian Chengyue: “…Woof!”

Ning Mingmei: ...

It seemed that the young devil was really pissed off by him, and actually tried to vent his anger and grievances, and to show his indomitable courage and rebellious spirit.

"Swish."

But Ning Mingmei actually smiled sincerely for the first time in the past few days because of this.

I was amused by the other person.

As soon as he smiled, the little boy slowly stopped screaming.

Looking again, although the child looked gloomy, he actually began to be dazed.

Ning Mingmei didn't bother to pay attention to the little stray dog's psychological activities. He lifted the car curtain and got out directly.

Before getting off the car, he turned around and said, "Starting tomorrow, it will be someone else who will feed you the medicine. Be nicer to them."

After saying this, Ning Mingmei left.

Outside the car, the disciples who had returned from the mission site had already surrounded the Immortal City. Everyone was looking around, eager to gossip. Ning Mingmei only said: "Why are you looking at me? Hurry to Yedi before you go down the mountain. Do you hear me?"

The disciples did not dare to speak, and acted as if nothing had happened and drove away.

…

The closer you get to Yedi, the darker red the land becomes, and the dry soil looks like it has a layer of rust.

"There are many maple trees on the mountain." Ren Miao said, leaning against the window.

After Lian Chengyue was fed the medicine, the order of riding in the fairy carriage was changed to Ning Mingmei, Gui Ruoxue and the two children riding in one carriage, with Fifteen and Sixteen driving outside. The other disciples got in one car.

There are indeed many maple trees in the mountains. It is spring now. Generally speaking, the maple leaves will turn a fresh green at this time.

But even at this time, the maple leaves on the ground are orange and yellow.

It is hard to imagine what a spectacular sight it would be in autumn when the mountains are covered with blood-red maple leaves.

But what is strange is that the soil on the whole mountain is red, while the river water flowing through this place is creepy green. The dark green reflects the maple leaves all over the mountain and the orange-red sky in the evening.

Very strange.

Gui Ruoxue saw Ning Mingmei looking out the window and said, "Now you know why Ye Di is called Ye Di."

It is because of the maple leaves all over the mountain and the dark red soil.

Gui Ruoxue: "But do you know why the land here is red? Legend has it that a long time ago, the soil of Yedi was not what it is now."

Ning Mingmei: "Desiliconization and iron-aluminization."

Gui Ruoxue: ...

"Yedi is located in a natural barrier, at a pass before entering the heart of the Central Plains. Before the human world expanded, this place has always been a battleground for military strategists." Gui Ruoxue said, "The demons, monsters, ghosts, and even civil strife in the human world... This land has been soaked in blood after war after war."

Ning Mingmei: "Well, there are some fantasy elements, which is acceptable."

Therefore, in the past, especially during the Tertiary and Quaternary periods when the human race was in decline. There has never been any large-scale city-state on this land. Even if there was, it was only small and uncongregated villages.

Ning Mingmei only cared about one thing: "Has the human race ever declined?"

Seeing Fang Wuyu's awesome appearance, I thought the human royal family has always been like the Celestial Dragons.

Gui Ruoxue sneered softly, "In the past, it was true. As long as mortals had spiritual roots, they would leave the human world and go to the immortal world to practice. At that time, the human world itself also believed that it should be normal for people without spiritual roots to live in ignorance and darkness."

The strong are leaving and there is a lack of strength.

Moreover, those who practice Taoism pay attention to cutting off worldly ties.

So what if more monks appear? The human world is still weak and poor.

The rise of the human world took place in the Fifth Epoch. The human world is still the same human world, but there appears an emperor named Fang.

He was a true human emperor who used an extremely strong iron fist to expand the territory of the human world and turned it into a world that could stand on equal footing with other worlds - although his iron fist was ultimately stained with blood and was controversial.

For example, starting from him, the situations in the human world and the fairy world were truly tied together.

But no one in the world dares to belittle a truly strong person. After that, the Fang royal family had both female emperors and male emperors. The only unchanged thing is that the Fang royal family has been passed down to this day. As a prince, Fang Wu Yu is also very awesome.

Ning Mingmei: "But Yecheng is a big city."

Gui Ruoxue: "Ye City rose to prominence after the Hero King was conferred the title - before that, it had a very tortuous history. Have you ever wondered why there are so many monsters near Ye? Because Liuyue Lake is a Feng Shui treasure land, and it is close to the monster world. In the past, many monsters gathered here."

But even though human life is fragile, it is always endless. Even in the darkest and most chaotic Third Age, there were still many small villages here. As the gate of heaven collapsed, I waited for the dawn with my most fragile mortal body.

In the Third Age, there was a legend in Yedi.

Gui Ruoxue: "Have you heard of human witches? They only existed many years ago. Most of them don't have spiritual roots, so they offer their souls, health... and other parts as sacrifices to pray to the gods for strength. But this only makes them a little stronger than ordinary people. That little firefly-like power is only enough to deal with some small monsters."

It is completely impossible to fight against the big monster.

And in the end, they will all pay the price of living shorter lives than ordinary people, withering away their bodies and souls after death, and having difficulty entering reincarnation.

In the Third Age, the demons had coveted Liuyue Lake for a long time, and invaded Yedi several times and massacred the villagers. The people here have a mortal feud with the monsters, and to this day, the people in this area hate monsters extremely.

Later, the invasion of the demon tribe suddenly stopped.

Gui Ruoxue said: "Some people say that it was because a big demon came here. The demons are very territorial. Considering that they can't defeat the big demon, most of them chose to leave. This is a rare period of peace in Yedi's bloody history of thousands of years."

The peace lasted until the Quaternary era. In the Fifth Age, monsters invaded again on a small scale. It was not until the fifth period when the Demon Concubine brought disaster to the country that the bloody war that had lingered in Yedi for thousands of years broke out again.

It broke out between humans and monsters, humans and rebels.

The blood once again dyed the land of Yedi red. The hero of Yedi, General King, appeared at this time. He held a torch and led a group of brothers to fight their way out of the chaotic world and support the royal family.

After being suspected of using his achievements to repay his debts, he asked to retire - with only one request.

He wanted Yedi as his fiefdom, and he only wanted to return here with his subordinates.

At that time, Yedi was a place of poverty and barrenness. The emperor naturally agreed and gave him an elixir.

Gui Ruoxue said, "That elixir is a good thing they got from Minghua Valley. It can prolong life and make one look youthful for four or five hundred years. But I heard that General King has been in poor health and has been plagued by diseases for more than ten years. The Emperor has been worried and wanted to ask Minghua Valley to send someone to take a look. But General King said no."

This "person" is naturally someone from Minghua Valley. As the former deputy master of Minghua Valley, Gui Ruoxue does have some connections.

Suffering from illness?

Ning Mingmei said: "General Wang said in the note he gave us that Yedi is haunted and asked us to come and get rid of the ghost."

How could a general who had made such outstanding contributions that he surpassed his master and who had supported the royal family to the point of being righteous and upright be afraid of ghosts?

What's more, living with him in Yedi are his old subordinates who have been through life and death with him. Who doesn’t have hundreds of enemy lives on his hands?

When you were young, you were not afraid of killing enemies, but when you are old, you are afraid of illness and avoid seeing doctors. Are you even afraid of ghosts?

Ning Mingmei looked at the blood-red ground and the emerald green water.

These six million are interesting.

As they were talking, the fairy carriage had already left the mountain road and arrived on the main road. The setting sun was like blood. The disciples driving the carriage looked at the Yedi City not far away and sighed, "How magnificent."

It’s really impressive. The only city-state on the large plain in the valley. As the sun sets, the tall and thick city walls shine brightly as if they were covered with a layer of gold.

The car was on the road, and gradually some residents were walking on both sides. It seems that they are all from Yecheng.

But Ning Mingmei frowned.

He said to the disciple who was driving the car, "Drive slower."

Fifteen asked, "What's wrong?"

Ning Mingmei said: "The residents here are very strange."
