Chapter 402 Meeting an Old Friend
Two hours later.
From the beginning of the night to the end of the night, when the bright moon moved from the east of Xiaoqing Mountain to the sky, the cave door finally opened slowly again under the nervous gaze of dozens of Freemason gang members.
Wei Changtian stood at the entrance of the cave with a calm expression, and behind him a strong smell of blood filled the silence.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Zhang San came forward first and looked deep into the cave.
The result was beyond doubt: all fifty-two monsters were killed.
"Yeah, it's okay."
Patting his collar, Wei Changtian casually glanced behind him and said, "Deal with the monster corpse, keep the monster spirit pills, and distribute the monster pills to these brothers."
"Yes, I understand."
Zhang San bowed in response, and after making some simple arrangements, he returned to Wei Changtian again.
"Sir, are you going back home next?"
"Well, let's not go back yet."
Shaking his head, Wei Changtian walked to a wooden table at the entrance of the cave.
This is a place for people who guard the cave to rest. There are a few plates of side dishes such as peanuts and a few pots of liquor on the table.
He picked up a pot of wine and two clay bowls.
Wei Changtian turned to look at Zhang San who was looking puzzled, and suddenly smiled for no reason.
"Let's go to Yanyun Mountain."
Half an hour later, at the top of the mountain in smoke and clouds.
On the seventh day of December last year, there was a great battle here that few people knew about, but was shocking enough.
In this battle, Wei Changtian demonstrated his ability to kill a second-grade enemy for the first time.
In this battle, five second-grade masters died.
It was also in this battle that Xiao Feng died at the hands of Wei Changtian, and with a little reluctance and more freedom, he completely shed his identity as the "protagonist". Wei Changtian was actually not a sentimental person, and he rarely had time to mourn for something.
To be honest, when he really stood in front of Xiao Feng's grave, he didn't even know why he came here.
But now that you're here, just stay for a while.
“Pah.”
He sat cross-legged and placed two clay bowls filled with wine in front of him.
Wei Changtian first picked up one of them, tilted his head back and drank the wine in the bowl.
Then, like a naive child, he suddenly picked up the other bowl.
"Hahaha, Xiao Feng."
"Do you think this bowl of wine is for you to drink?"
"Sorry, both bowls of wine are mine!"
“Gulp gulp~”
He raised his head and lowered it, and the second bowl of wine went into Wei Changtian's stomach in the blink of an eye.
He smiled and touched his mouth, then poured a third bowl of wine.
The wine jug I picked up was not big, and after pouring this bowl, there was no more.
Looking at this last bowl of wine, Wei Changtian did not drink it all in one gulp this time. Instead, he took a small sip slowly, muttering to himself:
"Xiao Feng, you've killed me."
"If one of you dies, thirteen will appear again."
"If I had known this would happen, I would have rather not killed you."
"Oh, by the way, I have completely fallen out with Ning Yongnian now."
"In order to annex Dafeng, he actually killed three million people in Yuanzhou City in one go."
"He wasn't a good guy in the original novel. I remember that you killed him in front of all the civil and military officials in the court."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, but I'm unlikely to be able to kill him myself."
"I promised Madam Wei that I would give her this opportunity."
"We should always keep our promises, don't you think?"
"I almost forgot. I am not qualified to say this in front of you."
“.”
Shaking his head and looking at the night sky again, Wei Changtian suddenly took a deep breath and his expression slowly became lost.
"Xiao Feng, tell me why I should fight to the death like you."
"You are the protagonist. You can't die no matter what you do. Of course, I mean before I traveled through time."
"But what about me?"
"This crappy system is somewhat useful, but compared to what is described in the novels I read, it is simply garbage."
"I can't guarantee that one day he will kill me before I kill Ning Yongnian."
"Then I am too frustrated, right?"
"Tell me whether I should continue or not. It's not too late for me to stop now."
"Then I will live a peaceful and stable life. That's what I planned from the beginning anyway."
"I'm asking you a question. If you are still alive, please give me some feedback. Even a gust of wind will do."
“.”
"Well, it seems that I still have to believe in science. Soul and other things are bullshit."
After muttering to himself for a long time, Wei Changtian finally calmed down for a while.
He didn't know why he was so neurotic and said all these nonsense to a grave mound.
Maybe it's because there are some things he can only say to the dead.
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore."
"I just broke through to the fourth level, and I wanted to show it off to you."
"But after thinking about it, I felt that if you were still alive, you would definitely be stronger than me now, so I lost interest again."
"Here, I left you half a bowl of wine."
"Drink slowly, I'm leaving now."
“.”
Placing the remaining half bowl of liquor on the grave which didn't even have a tombstone, Wei Changtian slowly stood up and walked down the mountain without looking back.
The small mound watched his figure disappear alone, and the dense forest returned to silence.
Suddenly, a night wind blew down from the sky.
They passed through the dense branches and leaves of the ancient trees and slightly shook the weeds in front of the grave.
The wine in the bowl created ripples, as if answering the question that Wei Changtian already had the answer to.
It was already Yin time when we returned to our cottage from Yanyun Mountain.
There was still candlelight in Xu Qingwan and Lu Jingyao's room, but both of them were asleep with their clothes on.
Without waking the two of them up, Wei Changtian yawned, found a guest room, washed up briefly, and then fell on the bed.
After killing fifty-two monsters, he finally broke through to the fourth level, and the next level was the third level, which was a qualitative change.
But this step is a bit difficult.
The internal energy that he cultivated was the Wei family's "Guiyuan Gong". The biggest advantage of it was that there was no bottleneck in the improvement of realms below the fourth level, and everything could be achieved naturally.
But the third level is obviously beyond this range, so it won’t be that easy anymore.
Not only do you need to accumulate enough internal strength, you also need to have some understanding of "momentum".
The most important thing is that you have to overcome the so-called "heart hurdle".
According to Wei Xianzhi and others, this hurdle is different for everyone, and it is impossible to describe it specifically. Everything will only become clear when a breakthrough is made.
Wei Changtian was too lazy to think about these questions at the moment, but there were many similar settings in his previous life's novels for reference.
Although the names are different, they can generally be divided into several categories such as "defeat the inner demon", "understand the great Dao", and "firm the heart of Dao".
I don’t know what kind of “heart” it is. Forget it, any kind is difficult for me to deal with anyway. As he was thinking, Wei Changtian fell asleep before he could enter the “dream path”.
Since he obtained the "Dream Path", he only had two days without "dreaming" while sleeping.
One was that I had just arrived in Shuzhou and I drank too much on my birthday in my previous life.
The second was the night I married Comrade Xiao Xu.
So, this is the third time.
However, although he did not "fall asleep", Wei Changtian did "dream" tonight.
In the dream, a blurry figure stood in the chaos, and the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
"Wei Changtian."
"Since you have defeated me, you can definitely do what I can do."
"Even to do things I haven't done before."
"So, now it's your turn to be the protagonist."
