Chapter 333 I Didn’t Quit
As the entire stone tablet was opened, everyone's eyes fell on the girl. Some people gasped because the girl was so thin.
Her thin body was small and just curled up there, as if it could be blown away by a gust of wind.
Jian Yue walked over first, he half squatted down to catch the person, and then quickly caught the fallen girl. The girl fell into his arms as thin as a piece of paper. He frowned slightly after catching the person. She was too thin. She must have stayed here for several days. She was about to faint, and was awakened by the noise outside.
His breath was so weak that there was almost no sign of life.
Without any hesitation, Jian Yue half squatted down and fed the girl the pills that the original owner had secretly hidden in his Qiankun bag. There were not many pills in total, and the original owner only had two. Jian Yue didn't know what kind of pills it was, but he knew that since the original owner, as an immortal, could hide such pills, it must not be a cheap thing.
He fed it into the girl's mouth, then looked back and said, "Water."
Fortunately, the disciples brought a lot of things, including clean water.
The person standing closest to Jian Yue was Jiang Yu. He reached out and handed the kettle to Jian Yue. Jian Yue took the kettle and fed it to the girl. The little girl was still conscious and could swallow by herself.
Jiang Chengqi and others came over and asked, "Are you still alive?"
Jian Yue said, "She's alive, but she's in a coma. Let's ask her when she wakes up."
There was nothing they could do. After all, the person had fainted and it was difficult to interrogate him. Jian Yue was also a little worried because he didn't know whether this so-called elixir would work. There was no way there could be a hospital in the deep mountains and forests here. To be honest, they didn't even know whether the vengeful spirits outside would come back. Everything was an unknown now.
"Let's rest here for one night." Jian Yue said, "Tomorrow we'll go down the mountain and take her to the nearby town to have a look."
Everyone could only agree.
The cave is very large and the location is also very cheap, so no wind can blow in from the stone walls outside the sinkhole, making it very safe. If there weren't a dozen bodies of villagers nearby, it would be even safer. Everyone transported the bodies to a nearby place and placed them in a row, ready to bury them tomorrow when the rain stops, so that at least the people can rest in peace.
The rainy night in the mountains was very cold, and there were thunders outside. In order to keep warm, they could only light a fire in the cave. After walking in the mountains for a whole day, everyone was really tired and hungry. They all had rations, which were distributed by Lingyun Sect before going out. They all sat on the edge of the mountain wall.
Only two people didn't eat.
Jian Yue was taking care of the little girl. He hadn't eaten yet. Turning back, he saw that Jiang Yu, who was sitting by the stone wall not far away, hadn't eaten either. Jiang Chengqi had been guarding the little girl like a stone pillar.
"You don't have to look at her like that." Jian Yue said, "She will wake up when she should."
Jiang Chengqi said, "I want to wait for her to wake up, and then ask her something. How did those evil spirits kill her parents? How did they commit such a heinous crime? My brother was also injured by the evil spirits. He was seriously injured and has not woken up yet. I want to ask about the weaknesses of these evil spirits and see if there is any way to save my brother."
Jian Yue said: "Then you can eat something first, I will tell you when she wakes up."
In the original novel, Jiang Chengqi suddenly drew his sword and injured his fellow disciple in the late stage of this disciple competition and was dealt with according to the sect's rules. Jian Yue must find out the reason behind this, so he must keep an eye on Jiang Chengqi.
Jiang Chengqi said, "I have to watch over her myself to feel at ease. Don't worry about me. Go and have a rest. I have to watch over her here to feel at ease."
Jian Yue looked back and found that Jiang Yu was the only one who hadn't eaten. He asked, "How come you all have food?"
Jiang Chengqi bit the biscuit in his mouth and said, "Isn't this normal? Before new disciples join the sect, they have to pay some fees, and then the sect will give them food supplies. Didn't he pay the fees?"
Jian Yue remembered that Jiang Yu was an orphan. He had no money and certainly no money to pay the fees. In the original novel, he had a miserable life in Lingyun Sect, but he didn't expect that he would be even more miserable here.
Jiang Chengqi said, "You don't have anything to eat either?"
Jian Yue really didn't have any. He wasn't a new disciple, so how could he get any? He laughed dryly twice, and then thought of his own mall, so he said, "I have some, but I just haven't eaten them yet."
Jiang Chengqi had no doubts.
Jian Yue walked over and sat next to Jiang Yu. The food he exchanged from the mall was limited, and he could only exchange for things in this world. The mall only gave him a large cake. Jian Yue sat next to Jiang Yu and handed him half of it and said, "Here."
Jiang Yu looked at him with some surprise. His eyes were dark and contained quiet inquiry.
Jian Yue smiled and said, "I want to thank you. When we were outside today, you helped me move the corpse, and later when we were in the cave, you also saved me once. You can't starve to death, I still need you!"
After he said that, Jiang Yu didn't refuse. He took the cake but didn't eat it.
Jian Yue was curious: "Why don't you eat?"
"I'm not hungry." Jiang Yu said, "I'll eat when I'm hungry later."
Jian Yue was puzzled: "How can you not be hungry? You came with us."
Before Jiang Yu could speak, a chubby-faced disciple sitting by the stone wall not far away said with a smile, "How could he be hungry? He is already a disciple of Yuehua Immortal Venerable, and he still comes to take our exam. Maybe the Immortal Venerable has already given him some magic weapon. We can't compare with him!"
As a result, the disciple had not yet finished speaking.
The person who had just been sitting next to Jian Yue was gone. His figure was like a blue cloud and a flying moon, and the corners of his clothes even seemed to be carrying the wind. His knife was against the neck of the chubby disciple. He looked down at the man with a deep gaze. His voice was a little hoarse, but it was chilling. He said, "Try to slander my master again."
The sword, shining with cold light, seemed to be about to cut the disciple's throat in the next second. He was so scared that he gasped and his face turned pale: "Jiang Yu, what do you want to do!"
He didn't say anything, but his aura made everyone shudder.
Jian Yue was stunned when he was halfway through eating the cake. He had never thought that Jiang Yu would defend him, a latecomer, so much. However, seeing that the atmosphere was a bit solemn, he hurriedly smiled, came over and grabbed Jiang Yu and said, "Forget it, Brother Yu, forget it, Brother Yu, don't bother with them."
Jiang Yu looked very aggressive, but was still easily pulled over by Jian Yue.
Jian Yue asked the man to sit back on the ground, and while chewing, he looked at Jiang Yu's stern face and asked in a low voice: "Why did you fight with them? They are your future fellow disciples. There is no need for you to make such a fuss with them..."
There was thunder and rain outside.
Jiang Yu just whispered: "Master has been very kind to me."
Jian Yue was dumbfounded. He almost choked on the pancake. He thought he didn't do anything. He said weakly, "Really? No way. You've only been my disciple for a day or two. Have you ever had any contact with me?"
He felt that he was a bit gossipy, and it seemed that he was gossiping about himself. This was a very subtle feeling, but he was really curious. Could it be that the original owner actually had some unknown story with Xiaoyu? !
However.
Jiang Yu just glanced at Jian Yue and said, "For a person like me, Master is willing to accept me as his disciple, which is a favor to me. When I was seriously ill, Master did not hesitate to lend a helping hand. Master's kindness to me is as great as a mountain."
Jian Yue choked, of course it was possible that he was choked by the cake. He chewed, chewed, lowered his head to swallow, and looked away, no longer daring to look at the person in front of him. He was afraid that if he looked away too slowly, the pity and heartache in his eyes would overflow.
He thought that in the original novel, the original owner also accepted him, but because he had no cultivation and was afraid of being exposed, he took him in but did not teach him. He even allowed the outside world to spread the rumor that he had a bad spiritual root and was a bad root of the demon clan. He completely destroyed Jiang Yu. The great kindness to Jiang Yu was always a non-existent conspiracy.
It’s said in the original book.
Later, after Jiang Yu became the Demon Lord, Yuehua Immortal Lord led all the immortal gates to encircle and suppress the demons. Jiang Yu asked him, since he was his disciple, would he be willing to do such a cruel thing?
Immortal Master Yue Hua looked down at him and said, "Evil creature, how could your master have a disciple like you? From the beginning, a beast like you should not have entered the sect, and your master never considered you as a disciple. If you had not chosen yourself at the disciple conference, how could your master have accepted you?!"
Those hurtful words are like blades, shattering even the tiny fragments of the past.
Later, the immortal sects failed to subdue Jiang Yu, and instead made him the Demon Lord. The original owner Yuehua was afraid of revenge and hid himself. Every time he hid in a sect, Jiang Yu would destroy the sect and find the original owner to torture and retaliate against him. There are only one million words, all of which are about various unrestrained fighting methods. So he really hated him, so much that he would do this.
It sounds extreme, but the more Jane thought about it, perhaps from the very beginning, this mistake would not have any good consequences.
The system panel suddenly popped up to remind him: "In the main storyline, the tasker must complete the entire existing storyline of the dungeon before the dungeon mission can be considered complete."
Jian Yue said: "That means I have to do the same thing as the original owner, right?"
The system answered with certainty: "Yes."
Jian Yue thought, oh, such a heartbreaking thing, he must make Jiang Yu experience it with his own hands before it will be over.
He was thinking.
There was a kettle in his sight. He glanced sideways and saw Jiang Yu's young face. The boy sat next to him and said seriously, "Drink some water. You are choking and having difficulty breathing."
Jian Yue said hastily, "Is there?"
"Yes." Jiang Yu nodded. He looked at Jian Yue's red eyes and said, "You look very uncomfortable."
Jian Yue laughed. He took the water and drank it carelessly, his voice was a little intermittent: "Yes, oh, you see, I'm too hungry, I choked."
Jiang Yu said, "Don't be in a hurry to eat, I have more here."
Another piece of cake appeared in front of Jian Yue, the half that Jiang Yu had not eaten. He said, "Eat it. I'm not hungry. Don't leave it for me. Eat it yourself. It will be so uncomfortable if you are hungry."
Jiang Yu said, "I'm not hungry. I used to live in a small town with a lot of people. I was too young, so the place where I worked didn't want me, so I often went hungry. Later, when I grew up a little, I did hard labor, and if I ate too much, people would look down on me, so I didn't have to eat much, and I didn't go hungry for many days."
Jian Yue subconsciously said: "That's not good for your health."
Jiang Yu sat quietly beside Jian Yue. On this rainy night, he seemed to reveal his past scars to Jian Yue bit by bit. He said, "No, I have been different from ordinary people since I was a child. I don't feel hungry or tired. I don't feel happy or sad. They said I am a monster."
Jian Yue said, "You are obviously gifted. You are better at cultivation than ordinary people. You see, cultivation requires giving up the seven emotions and six desires, but you are born without having to give them up. You just don't have anything to ask for. You are born with spiritual roots!"
He looked at him and smiled, drinking water from his kettle, his eyes still slightly red, but bright. He smiled lightly, the light from the fire not far away danced in his eyes, but it seemed that the stars in the sky were not as bright as his eyes.
Jiang Yu stared at him for a moment, then shook his head and whispered, "I'm not born with spiritual roots."
Jian Yue was a little stunned. He thought he was still not confident, so he hurriedly wanted to continue to enlighten him and asked, "Why aren't you confident?"
Jiang Yu glanced at him. Half of the boy's face was red from the firelight. He lowered his dark eyes, as if only this could ease the violently beating heartbeat in his body. Half of his face was a little red, but he didn't dare let anyone notice.
In Jian Yue's somewhat anxious eyes.
"Because I found out." Jiang Yu lowered his head and said slowly, "It turns out that I didn't quit."
