Chapter 82 Chapter 82 Game
It was already dark when the battle ended, and everyone decided to rest on the island for a night.
None of the disciples brought by the Xuantian Sect died, but most were injured. Fortunately, after taking the elixir, their injuries quickly healed. Their high spirits made them unwilling to rest, and they continued to bustle around the island like a group of industrious ants.
Shui Yaoguang was also injured, but she did not choose to rest. Instead, she and Zuo Beixing silently wiped the blood off the damaged black iron puppets, removed their armor, sewed them up, and put them into coffins.
Among them are disciples of the Xuantian Sect who died in battle a thousand years ago, as well as some innocent monks who died tragically at the hands of the Demon Sect.
Shui Yaoguang then turned and went to the lowest level of the cabin and began interrogating the demon cultivators and the gray-robed man. He only questioned them, cracking his whip with a loud clatter. Zuo Beixing had set up a soundproofing formation nearby to muffle the men's screams and prevent them from scaring the disciples outside.
As a poor little girl kidnapped by the evil cult, Yun Miao received the love and care of her senior brothers and sisters. They specially cleared out a room for Yun Miao to rest, hoping that she could have a good sleep.
Yun Miao had created a huge mess on her own. Although she had a lot of fun, she was indeed a little tired mentally. When she felt sleepy, she did not refuse. She thanked her senior brothers and sisters and said good night.
Then she closed the door and prepared to log off and go to sleep. However, just as she sat on the edge of the bed, there was a knock on the door, followed by Qi Shubai's gentle voice.
"Junior Sister, are you asleep?"
Didn't Senior Brother go to help? Why are you back again?
Yun Miao opened the door and looked at Qi Shubai with some confusion: "Brother, is there something wrong?"
Qi Shubai nodded to indicate that he did have something to talk to her about, and asked if it was convenient for Fang to go in and talk.
Yun Miao naturally would not refuse, and turned around to lead Qi Shubai into the house. As a result, she saw Qi Shubai naturally close the door after entering. Yun Miao looked over in confusion. After spending so much time together, she had already understood Qi Shubai's character.
Although Qi Shubai can be a little mean sometimes, he is usually a gentle, polite and modest gentleman. He pays attention to the distance between people. He will touch her head with a smile, but he will never close the door when talking to her in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Yun Miao looked carefully at the blood bar above Qi Shubai's head. Well, the blood points were the same as she had seen before. It was definitely her senior brother.
Qi Shubai also noticed the change in Yun Miao's gaze. He took out a soundproofing note and stuck it on the crack of the door. Then he smiled at Yun Miao and said, "I need to tell my junior sister something that cannot be heard by others, so it's better to close the door."
Yun Miao was no longer sleepy when she heard this. She hurriedly took out the tea set from her storage bag to make tea for Qi Shubai, and signaled her senior brother to tell her in detail the things that could not be said, because she loved to hear them!
Qi Shubai sat down on the chair, took a sip of tea, and carefully asked Yun Miao what her relationship was like with her junior master uncle.
Yun Miao had originally expected to hear some explosive gossip, but she hadn't expected to hear this question. She hesitated for a moment: "Hasn't my senior brother asked this question before? Xiao Hei and I have a very good relationship."
"It's not Xiao Hei, it's Junior Master..."
Qi Shubai put down his teacup and said seriously, "Xiao Hei is a wolf, and Junior Master is a human, a man. Junior Sister, you must understand this. I came here to ask what you think of Junior Master."
Yun Miao was not stupid, so she quickly understood what Qi Shubai meant. The focused profile of Chu Beiliang when he hugged her in the sunset appeared in her mind.
After pondering for a second, Yun Miao decided to speak frankly: "Junior Master, he is a very handsome man."
Qi Shubai was silent for a moment, and advised her earnestly that when judging a man, one should not only look at his appearance, but also look at his inner qualities.
Yun Miao thought for a second again: "Little Master Uncle is not only good-looking, but also emotionally stable, simple and easy to deceive."
It perfectly suits her aesthetic and is her favorite type of game NPC to try out for marriage strategies.
Yun Miao had only caught a glimpse of Chu Beiliang in the setting sun and suddenly thought that he was quite good-looking, but she had not thought too much about it. However, now that she had been thinking about it a little bit more in response to Qi Shubai's question, she actually became interested.
On the other side, Qi Shubai remained silent for even longer after hearing the words "simple and easy to deceive". He had clearly come to advise his junior sister to beware of Chu Beiliang, so why did it sound like Chu Beiliang needed to be more wary of his junior sister?
He sighed deeply: "Junior Sister, this is not right."
Yun Miao also nodded sadly: "I know, he is my junior uncle. This is wrong."
Even more exciting. Hehehe.
“That’s one thing, but there’s another.”
Qi Shubai knew Yun Miao's character very well and had very low expectations of her. Seeing that she didn't say things like "Junior Master, I want one too, I just like to disobey my superiors", he felt relieved.
Fortunately, there should still be hope.
"You heard it today. Junior-Master-Uncle was born into the Changsheng Sect. He was the Holy Son raised by those lunatics. He bears the marks of the Changsheng Sect from head to toe. What you call naive and gullible is just one of those marks."
His fingers tapped his temples, and his gentle voice turned cold.
"No one knows how profound the influence of the Changsheng Sect has been on him. Although he is now our junior uncle, Elder Yuchen accepting him as a disciple is just a gesture of our sincerity. It doesn't mean that we have completely accepted him."
"Junior Sister, people's hearts are hidden. Before you are completely sure of his position, it is better not to have too much contact with him to avoid getting hurt."
Yun Miao blinked, and other people's attitudes towards Chu Beiliang quickly emerged in his mind. He suddenly realized that those so-called polite treatments were also alienation and surveillance to some extent.
The relationship between Elder Yuchen and him as a teacher and disciple was superficial. Elder Yuchen didn't teach him anything, and he didn't need her guidance. He had left the sect from time to time before, so he must have been helping the sect with things, right?
He had nothing to do in the sect and no one was willing to play with him, so he could only look for her to play with him on weekdays.
Tsk tsk, so pitiful.
"I see, Brother, I understand."
Qi Shubai didn't relax. He stared at Yun Miao and said, "Are you sure you understand?"
Yun Miao nodded seriously: "I really understand."
Qi Shubai looked at her for a long moment, then said helplessly, "Alright, I'll assume you really understand. You've always been smart and quick-witted. Master and I just hope you can calm down a bit and stop putting yourself in danger."
Yun Miao nodded again, indicating that he would definitely behave himself.
Qi Shubai had said everything he was about to say. Seeing that his junior sister had a good attitude, he didn't say much. He just told Yun Miao to have a good rest tonight, then put a jade bottle on the table and turned to leave Yun Miao's room.
Yun Miao took two quick steps to see her senior brother off, then curiously pulled out the stopper of the jade bottle and took a look. The fragrance of the thousand-year-old spiritual milk immediately hit her face, and her heart suddenly warmed, knowing that this must have been specially prepared for her by her senior brother.
Just when she was moved, Chu Beiliang's voice suddenly came to her ears: [Yun Miao, can I come in? ]
【Enter. 】
Yun Miao responded subconsciously, and only after seeing Chu Beiliang appear in the house did she remind him, "Why didn't you knock when you came in?"
Chu Beiliang thought for a moment and said, "But I never knocked when I entered your room before."
Yun Miao said that this was different. Xiao Hei didn't need to knock on the door when coming in, but Chu Beiliang had to knock on the door when coming in.
"I see."
Chu Beiliang walked to the closed door and knocked politely. Then he turned to look at Yun Miao and asked, "Is this okay?"
“…How can you knock on the door inside the house?”
Yun Miao lazily sat on the edge of the bed, making no effort to pour tea for Chu Beiliang. "Senior Brother just left and you came right after. Were you eavesdropping on our conversation from outside?"
Chu Beiliang walked towards the bed and calmly said that he had wanted to come to Yun Miao for a long time, but because he saw Qi Shubai enter Yun Miao's room and close the door, he waited outside for a while. He could feel that Qi Shubai didn't want him to get close to Yun Miao.
Yun Miao was not surprised by this. Xiao Hei was usually very perceptive, so it was normal for Chu Beiliang to be able to notice Qi Shubai's alienation towards him with his keen perception.
"What do you want to see me for?"
Chu Beiliang glanced at the green-clothed female cultivator who was a size smaller than him, and finally chose to sit next to her: "Sleep with you."
He was too close, their shoulders touching, legs touching, with almost no gap between them. Yun Miao could clearly feel the warmth of another person coming to her continuously.
And those words, which were even more bold and unrestrained than her usual style, reached her ears word for word.
Yun Miao's first reaction was—is this the value of an 18+ game? Could this game be anything naughty? What would happen if she agreed?
I don’t know if it was because the game was too real, making Yun Miao feel a little shy, or if Qi Shubai’s previous advice had some effect, but in any case, Yun Miao tried hard to restrain her curiosity and lust.
She moved to the side, distanced herself from Chu Beiliang, and scolded him in a low voice with a stern expression: "Do you know what you are saying? Man, you are playing with fire."
Chu Beiliang didn't understand what Yun Miao meant by this, but he could sense Yun Miao's rejection. A hint of confusion flashed across his calm, dark eyes. "You said before that you couldn't sleep without me in your arms. Qi Shubai said you were frightened and needed to rest, so I came to sleep with you. Why are you so happy?"
Yun Miao paused when he heard this, and recalled the scene where he used to hold Xiao Hei to sleep every night, give him a kiss and say good night before going to sleep.
It turns out that what Chu Beiliang meant by sleeping was really just sleeping. It was all because of what her senior brother said just now, which made her think in the wrong way.
Yun Miao resolutely refused to admit that this was his own problem, and seriously taught Chu Beiliang that a good man should not sleep with others casually. He would be taken advantage of by others.
Chu Beiliang thought for a moment and said, "I'm no longer a good man, I'm a bad man, so it doesn't matter. Besides, you've taken advantage of me many times, but I don't mind. So it doesn't matter."
Yun Miao was unhappy: "What are you talking about? I haven't done anything yet, how can I take advantage of you? Don't speak nonsense and slander my innocence!"
Chu Beiliang pointed to his cheek, saying that Yun Miao always kissed him. He had seen this passage in his master's book: if someone kisses someone without permission, they are taking advantage of them. They will be slapped.
"I was just treating you like a puppy and kissing you casually. It doesn't count at all!"
Feeling that she was being slandered, Yun Miao's eyes widened, and she grabbed Chu Beiliang by the collar, pulled him over, and kissed him hard on the lips. Although the kiss was separated immediately, the ruthless force still made the lips red.
Yun Miao, who had been playing rogue in the game, smacked his lips, savoring the soft touch, and then said seriously, "This is considered taking advantage of you, understand?"
Chu Beiliang, who had been taken advantage of, raised his hand and touched his lips in shock, but he quickly regained his composure and only glanced at Yun Miao's lips: "Then do you still want to take advantage of me?"
He paused: "I won't be angry."
Nor will I slap.
Yun Miao was just trying to prove herself, but when she heard that, her eyes couldn't help but move down and landed on his lips. The room unconsciously became quiet, and there seemed to be some strange atmosphere flowing.
She pursed her lips, feeling a little moved. She was indeed curious about kissing. It was just a game, so it should be... okay, right?
So Yun Miao instantly forgot all the promises he had just made to his senior brother and bravely rushed forward.
*
After logging off, Yun Miao returned to reality, took off her holographic helmet, and touched her lips guiltily. The numbing feeling seemed to still linger on her nerves. She touched her face again, and it was burning hot.
She retracted her hand and walked off the bed in her slippers, muttering, "He was the one who said to kiss casually, it's not my fault."
And then it turned out that Chu Beiliang bent down and kissed her, kissing her mouth until it was numb, so he should have taken advantage of her. However, the player was generous and did not bother with this awkward NPC.
She felt a little thirsty, so she poured herself a glass of water and drank it down in one gulp. Then she opened the refrigerator to make some dinner, but when she glanced around, she found that the refrigerator was empty. She looked in the cupboard again, and the instant noodles were gone too.
So Yun Miao picked up his keys and cell phone and went out, preparing to go to the nearby supermarket to buy some things to fill the refrigerator and cupboards.
It is only seven o'clock in the evening. Although it is dark, the street lights illuminate the road very brightly. Many pedestrians are walking together, talking and laughing. Many night joggers are attracted by the night market stalls not far away while running.
Yun Miao also bought a sausage and ate it while walking. Although school had started a long time ago, because her house was near the university, she did not live in a dormitory and still lived off campus.
It can also be said that the reason she chose her current university, besides its excellence, was that it was near her home.
This house was an inheritance left to her by a distant relative after his death. Yun Miao was an orphan who was abandoned at the door of an orphanage by her parents. She had never seen that distant relative and did not understand why that distant relative gave the house to her.
After so many years away from the orphanage, thanks to this old house that sheltered her from the wind and rain, she had a place to breathe in this world.
Unfortunately, the inheritance was given to her directly by the lawyer after the death of that distant relative. Because the lawyer refused to tell her, she didn't even know where the distant relative was buried and couldn't go to pay homage to him.
By the way, before the will incident, an old housekeeper came to the orphanage and said that a very wealthy old man wanted to adopt her as his granddaughter. As a smart child, when she heard that a rich old man wanted to adopt her, a lively and lovely girl, a lot of social news immediately popped up in her mind, so she decisively refused.
The old man did not come to the orphanage at that time. She only heard the old housekeeper mention him. His surname seemed to be... Chang. She didn't know his specific surname, was it Chang or Chang... It couldn't be Chang, right?
Yun Miao ate the delicious grilled sausage and thought happily that if her master came to adopt her, she would definitely agree.
After leaving the supermarket, Yun Miao, carrying a lot of bags, was not in a hurry to go home. Instead, she took a leisurely walk on the sidewalk. Suddenly, the sound of a mobile phone video playing came into her ears.
"Brothers, look, doesn't it look like a figure flying in the sky? Wow, fellow Daoist He Fang is flying in the sky, take me with you!"
Yun Miao, who caught the key words, subconsciously turned her head to look around. She didn't see the person who was speaking on the phone at first glance. She scanned the area again and saw two young men and women walking side by side under another street light a hundred meters away. They should be a couple.
She touched her ears in surprise. The night market stall was nearby, with a lot of people talking and the sound of vehicles driving on the road. In such a noisy environment, she could actually hear sounds from so far away. When did her hearing become so good?
She touched the corner of her eye again. Speaking of which, her eyesight seemed to have improved a lot. She could even clearly see the patterns on the small accessories of the young couple a hundred meters away.
Before Yun Miao had time to think about it, the young couple was already walking towards her, chatting affectionately while holding hands.
"Remember that video I shared with you earlier about a kid dressed as a Taoist priest running faster than a car?"
“Remember, that video was blocked before I even watched it.”
"Recently, there have been a lot of videos about people's vegetables growing huge, their pets becoming stronger, faster, and smarter, and many people are commenting on the resurgence of spiritual energy."
"Haha, it's all a scam to attract traffic. But it would be great if the spiritual energy really revived. Then I can fly you on my sword and we can save a lot of money on tickets when we go out for a trip."
"I don't think the revival of true spiritual energy is necessarily a good thing. I saw a video before where a gangster was in a fight with others, and suddenly fire came out of his mouth, burning the other person and making him scream. The video was so scary that I was so scared that I swiped away quickly. But when I recovered and went to look for him, he was gone."
"No way? It should be a special effect, right?"
"No, that scene was incredibly real. And when I checked later, I saw news reports about a gang fight and arson that resulted in death in that area, and that thug has been listed as a wanted fugitive!"
"Hiss, I'm getting scared when you say that."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, I will definitely protect you."
Yun Miao walked forward and passed by the sweet couple. She did not look back, but lowered her head, took out her mobile phone, and entered a few keywords in the search bar.
As she searched for more and more news, her steps became slower and slower, and finally she simply walked into a nearby small park and sat down on a bench.
This small park is remote and quiet. Under the dim shadows of the trees, only the sound of Yun Miao's mobile phone keeps coming. What the couple said is right. There have indeed been a lot of similar news recently.
Many people below were indeed laughingly speculating whether the spiritual energy had revived. However, most people still thought it was not surprising.
In the past, there were often reports of vegetables mutating strangely, and pets becoming very strong, smart, and obedient. It’s only because the Internet has become more and more developed, more and more people like to share their lives, and some people maliciously create fake news to attract traffic, that these strange news stories seem to have increased. Please treat them rationally.
After watching for a moment, Yun Miao let out a long breath. He also felt that the revival of spiritual energy was nonsense.
Putting aside other things, she had just played this part of the plot in the game, and the next second, the sign of the revival of spiritual energy appeared in reality. How could it be such a coincidence? It must be fake. She just played too many games recently and her brain was damaged.
After working for half a day, Master Yun diagnosed her illness online, put away her phone and prepared to leave, but she stopped after taking only two steps.
Amid the harsh friction sound of the plastic bag in her hand, there seemed to be a very light sound of footsteps slowly approaching her direction. At this moment, a night breeze blew from behind, and she smelled a hint of blood.
She calmly quickened her pace and walked towards the road, but the footsteps behind her also gradually accelerated, and then a gust of wind rushed from behind!
Yun Miao was so frightened that her scalp went numb and she quickly dodged to the side. Then she turned her head and saw a man with a hideous face in the dim light rushing towards her again with a fruit knife in his hand.
At the same time, he opened his mouth and a flame spurted out, heading straight for Yun Miao's face.
It was that fugitive she'd just seen on the news, the one who could actually breathe fire! He wanted to kill her? Why? Because of the food in her hand?
The rolling heat wave was already hitting her face. Yun Miao's breath was caught. Instinct had already driven her to move. Invisible power flowed through her dantian and tendons, just like she had done thousands of times in the game.
The water dragon roared and charged forward fiercely. This was the water control technique that she used the most and was most proficient in.
The flame as thin as a chopstick was instantly blown in the face, and the water dragon continued to move forward. Under the man's incredulous and terrified gaze, it hit his body directly.
He was too close to the water dragon, which opened its bloody mouth and seemed to be about to tear him to pieces in the next second.
However, at the last moment, the water dragon suddenly changed direction, twisting its body and tightly wrapping around his entire body, including his head. The man couldn't breathe, and his face instantly became distorted with pain and suffocation.
No, you can't kill anyone. You'll go to jail if you kill someone.
Yun Miao narrowly controlled the water dragon. She looked at the man, and a strange light flashed in her eyes in the night. This was one of the ancient secret techniques she had learned before, soul-stealing.
It is a high-level spell that can only be used by cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage, and can only be used by cultivators of lower levels than oneself.
Judging from the spiritual power in her Dantian, she seemed to be in the early stage of the Golden Core stage. She had thought she would fail, but in fact, she successfully used the Soul Capture on the man, and the other party had no power to resist.
Yun Miao erased the man's memory of ever meeting her and asked him to surrender to the police.
Because her emotions were not stable enough, she accidentally used too much force, which damaged the man's mind. Extreme pain flashed across his face, and then his eyes instantly became cloudy.
When the water dragon dispersed, he muttered to himself like an idiot: "Turn myself in... Turn myself in... Turn myself in..."
Then he turned around and staggered out of the park as if he couldn't see Yun Miao.
