Chapter 145 has a bug!!
"Buzz."
Outside the cave.
When the people who were waiting heard the shaking sound coming from the cave, their expressions changed.
Although I don’t know what the specific situation is inside, since this kind of noise has occurred, it is probably not a good sign.
What's more, since the sound appeared, the long rope on the ground has not moved again.
"Young Master."
Zhang San approached Wei Changtian and was about to speak when the latter interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"Wait a little longer."
"yes"
Looking at Wei Changtian with a somewhat gloomy expression, Zhang San didn't say anything more and immediately stepped aside and kept silent.
The others also looked at each other, and were equally silent, not daring to say a word.
The bright moon came out from the mountain forest, and its clear light dyed the surroundings silver-white. The whole forest was cold and silent, as if it was asleep.
Failed? Four lives and one death, all wrong choices? Is Ning Yuke so unlucky? Wei Changtian frowned, looking at the cave entrance, not knowing what to think.
He was in a bad mood right now, but it wasn't because he didn't get the Ten Thousand Blades and the Starry Scabbard for free, but because It was strange, why did he feel guilty?
This was just a transaction, and I didn't lie to Ning Yuke.
Besides, even if she didn't die today, she would be killed by Ning Yongnian in no time. Wei Changtian kept finding excuses to dispel the guilt in his heart.
But no matter how he persuaded himself, he could not really act as if nothing had happened.
After all, Ning Yuke entered the cave for herself. She didn't know how long she stood there, but the shaking sound in the cave had stopped long ago.
"Zhang San."
Wei Changtian shook his head and was about to have someone pull out Ning Yuke's body, which was still incomplete, but his eyes suddenly froze.
He suddenly turned his head and looked at the ground, only to see that the long rope, which had not moved for a long time, suddenly and slowly shrank a few inches into the hole.
As it turned out, Ning Yuke was not that unlucky.
Gen is the gate of life, she made the right choice.
"Young Master!"
When Ning Yuke came out of the cave, the first thing she saw was Wei Changtian.
She didn't even bother to untie the hemp rope around her waist, and immediately ran towards this side, as if she had a thousand words to say to the latter.
However, when she really stood in front of Wei Changtian, she suddenly didn't know where to start. After hesitating for a long time, she just handed the thing in her hand forward and said softly:
"Sir, this is what I got from inside."
A palm-sized piece of ancient jade and a scabbard that is completely black but has a few silver-white bright spots embedded in it.
That’s right, it is indeed the Wanren Yin and the Star Scabbard.
He earned two thousand system points for nothing and also took away a great opportunity for Xiao Feng.
Wei Changtian reached out and took the two items, but he did not feel as happy as he had expected.
He looked up at the dishevelled Ning Yuke and asked softly, "Are you injured?"
"No."
"Then what's going on?" Wei Changtian pointed at Ning Yuke's messy hair and several tears on her clothes.
"this"
Ning Yuke lowered her head in embarrassment: "I ran too fast when I came out and accidentally fell down."
She looked a bit like a child who had done something wrong, and Wei Changtian paused slightly when he heard her, then thanked her seriously.
"Thanks."
"Young Master."
A soft murmur echoed in my ears.
Ning Yuke looked up at Wei Changtian with a happy smile, as if she was happy that she could help the man in front of her.
"Sir, would you like to hear what I encountered in the cave?"
“.”
To be rational, since the things have been obtained, the correct thing to do now is to send Ning Yuke back to the palace, but Wei Changtian was silent for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
"Okay, I want to listen to it too."
A quarter of an hour later.
". Sir, that's about it."
On a piece of bluestone not far away, Wei Changtian and Ning Yuke sat side by side, while the others tactfully stayed away.
Ning Yuke has already recounted in detail what happened in the cave, and it is basically the same as what is described in the original book.
"Princess."
Wei Changtian looked up at the dark cloud covering half of the moon in the night sky, and asked with a smile: "Can I ask why you pulled out the sword of Genwei?"
"this."
Ning Yuke blushed slightly: "I told you, sir, don't laugh at me."
"Just tell me, I won't laugh at you."
"Well, it's because of my name."
Ning Yuke explained in a low voice: "My name contains the word 'jade', and jade comes from the mountains."
"So you chose the Gen position which represents the mountain?" Wei Changtian laughed.
"Sir, you said you wouldn't laugh at me."
Ning Yuke became even more embarrassed, and muttered to herself: "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by God, maybe this is God's will?"
"That's true."
Wei Changtian nodded without comment and was about to ask something else, but Ning Yuke's next unintentional sigh made him freeze in place as if he had been electrocuted.
“I don’t know who said this.”
I don't know who said this. Just like a mystery suddenly became clear because of a trivial clue, Wei Changtian suddenly realized something because of this sentence.
Something that he had never cared about or taken to heart before, but at this moment greatly affected his perception of the world.
"Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are determined by heaven."
Wei Changtian was very familiar with this sentence, and even knew that it came from "The Analects of Confucius".
Then why was it engraved in the cave of an ancient swordsman in this world?
What was the problem? This was the first time Wei Changtian seriously thought about the relationship between the book "Martial Arts Peak" and the current world.
The original book does describe the text in front of the five forks in the road in the cave, but the author did not explain why these words said by the sages in the previous life appeared in a world of cultivation.
From the author's point of view, this is not a problem. It is an imaginary world after all, so it is fine as long as the world setting is acceptable. It would be exhausting to pursue logical rationality everywhere.
From the reader's perspective, this is not a problem. After all, it's just a fun article, and it's fun to read ten lines at a glance.
But from the perspective of Wei Changtian, a time traveler, this is a big problem!
Since the setting of this world is highly consistent with that in the book, all the unreasonable things in the book must have a reasonable explanation.
"Princess, have you ever heard of Xunzi?"
"Xunzi? No."
"Confucius?"
“No.”
"Wang Yangming?"
"No."
"Princess, you have indeed never heard of the five sentences in the cave?"
“.”
Ning Yuke shook her head blankly for the fourth time, and Wei Changtian took a deep breath and finally became sure of one thing.
Since these words were not spoken by the natives of this world, there is only one reasonable explanation -
I am not the only one who has traveled through time.
At least the owner of this cave is just like himself, coming from the land of China on Earth, which has a splendid civilization of 5,000 years!
"Young Master."
Beside him, Ning Yuke pulled Wei Changtian's sleeve with some concern: "What's wrong with you?"
"fine."
Wei Changtian shook his head and was about to find an excuse to get away with it, but Zhang San hurried over at this moment.
His expression was very serious. He just nodded to Ning Yuke, then leaned over to Wei Changtian's ear and said in a very low voice:
"Sir, something happened in Prince Shun's mansion."
Wish you all a happy National Day!!!
By the way, can I ask for a few monthly tickets ? (End of this chapter)
