Chapter 357 The Death of Chen Sha
The next day, the five members of the tower-climbing team met at the entrance of the Tower of Babel as agreed.
Chen Sha seemed to have regained her energy, chattering away with Li Yingying.
As Qin Feng looked at the black aura surrounding the Tower of Babel, her mother's warning suddenly flashed into her mind again.
"Ah Feng, what are you daydreaming about?" Chen Sha took her arm. "Let's go, let's go into the tower! Today's goal is to clear the second floor!"
Qin Feng snapped out of his thoughts and followed the others into the tower.
The mutated black-winged beetles on the first floor have been cleared out, and their corpses have disappeared.
But when they arrived on the second floor, they found a completely different scene.
Without saying a word, the five men charged into the spider swarm and began to fight.
Just as Qin Feng was about to lose his temper, Li Yingying suddenly exclaimed from behind: "Sasha!"
Qin Feng turned around and saw that Chen Sha had fainted, her face flushed an unnatural red.
Li Yingying had already caught her with lightning speed.
Qin Feng made a quick decision: "Stop swiping, let's leave here immediately!"
The next moment, her arm was grabbed: "You're about to clear the level, how can you just stop like that?"
Qin Feng looked up and saw Ming Qing, whose eyes seemed to hold a certain determination.
Qin Feng shook off her hand: "Sasha is more important."
Mingqing panicked and stepped forward to stop her, "We're about to pass the level! Once we pass, we'll leave immediately!"
Li Yingying's face also darkened. "Ming Qing, get out of the way!"
Ming and Qing stubbornly stood their ground, refusing to budge an inch. "No way! We're so close to clearing the level, how can we give up now?"
Seeing that persuasion was hopeless, Qin Feng took matters into his own hands and started fighting with her.
While dodging Qin Feng's attacks, Ming Qing shouted angrily, "Qin Feng, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to kill each other?"
Qin Feng ignored her and told Li Yingying and Qingfeng to take Chen Sha out first, away from the Tower of Babel.
The two helped Chen Sha downstairs quickly.
Seeing the three leave, Mingqing shouted in despair, "What are you guys doing? We're about to clear the game, why are you leaving now?!"
Qin Feng suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked at the distraught Ming Qing. "Ming Qing, why did you encourage me to go into the tower?"
Initially, she didn't intend to farm towers.
Mingqing said she saw in an ancient book that spider silk would drop in the Demon Tower, which would allow her to forge more powerful equipment.
Furthermore, she gathered Qingfeng and the others in a very short time, as if she had come prepared.
After obtaining the Spider Silk, she originally wanted to end the tower-climbing activity, but Mingqing insisted on continuing.
Now, Ming and Qing are actually disregarding Chen Sha's life in order to pass the second level.
She realized that she seemed to have never really understood the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Ming Qing froze. "W-what are you saying? I don't understand! We all entered the Demon Tower for your sake."
Qin Feng stared at her: "Is it really for me? Or do you have some other ulterior motive?"
Ming Qing denied it, saying, "Qin Feng, don't judge me by my own standards. I entered the Demon Tower for your sake. Even if something really happened to Chen Sha, it was because of you."
Mentioning Chen Sha, Qin Feng lost her composure. She grabbed Ming Qing by the collar and asked, word by word, "Do you know something?!"
Ming and Qing Dynasties: "No comment."
Qin Feng narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Ming Qing's expression: "The danger in the Demon Tower isn't the demons, is it?"
In that instant, she saw that Mingqing looked somewhat flustered.
But Ming and Qing quickly masked their panic, saying, "I don't understand what you're saying."
Qin Feng already knew what was going on.
From the black mist surrounding the Demon Tower to Chen Sha's reaction and Ming Qingfeng's panic, Qin Feng had a guess in his mind.
“Those black wisps…” she stared into Ming Qing’s eyes, “are the real danger.”
Ming Qing panicked completely. Her eyes darted around. "What black energy? Qin Feng, what are you talking about? You're crazy! You're all crazy!"
She forcefully shook off Qin Feng and rushed out of the Demon Tower.
Qin Feng had his answer and hurriedly left the Magic Tower to go to Chen Sha's house.
Chen Sha is still unconscious and has developed a high fever.
Qingfeng went to see a doctor, while Li Yingying used a towel to physically cool her down.
But it was no use; Chen Sha's face grew increasingly red.
Li Yingying was almost in tears: "Afeng, what happened to Sasha?"
Qin Feng was about to be overwhelmed by guilt. If she had insisted on not attacking the tower anymore, Sasha wouldn't be in this situation.
No, if she hadn't listened to Mingqing and entered the tower in the first place, Sasha wouldn't have been in any trouble.
She's the one who ruined Sasha.
The doctor arrived quickly.
After a brief examination, he prescribed some fever reducers for Chen Sha: "She has no other symptoms besides the fever, so let's bring it down first. Has she caught a chill in the past few days?"
Li Yingying shook her head: "No."
The doctor looked puzzled. "That's strange. How could a fever develop without any warning?"
Qin Feng: "She's entered the Demon Tower."
The doctor was shocked: "The Demon Tower? The Tower of Babel? You're saying she went into the Tower of Babel?!"
Qin Feng nodded silently.
The doctor was speechless. "You guys are incredibly brave. How dare you come in..."
He shook his head. "Go and call your mother over."
Qin Feng: "My mother?"
The doctor sighed, "Go ahead."
Despite his many doubts, Qin Feng still went and summoned Yang Qing.
The doctor pointed to Chen Sha on the bed and said bluntly, "This child secretly entered the Demon Tower."
Yang Qing was shocked and looked at Qin Feng, asking, "You went too?"
Qin Feng nodded.
"Slap!" Yang Qing slapped her across the face. "I told you not to go into the Tower of Babel, why didn't you listen? Why do you all never listen to me?!"
The slap startled Li Yingying and Qingfeng, who were standing nearby.
Qingfeng reacted immediately and stood in front of Qin Feng, guarding against Yang Qing's attack again.
But Yang Qing didn't hit anyone again. Instead, she squatted on the ground, covered her head, and cried out, "Why don't you ever listen to me?"
At this moment, Mr. and Mrs. Chen also rushed over upon hearing the news.
Seeing Chen Sha lying on the bed, they felt dizzy.
The doctor gave Chen Sha an injection to reduce her fever, but her high fever persisted.
The doctor shook his head at Mr. and Mrs. Chen, picked up his medicine box, and left.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen wept bitterly.
Yang Qing knelt on the ground, crying as she apologized to them.
Later, Chen Sha's fever subsided, but her mental state remained that of a three-year-old child.
She forgot many things, but she still remembered Qin Feng.
Qin Feng often went to visit her, and every time she saw him, Chen Sha would ask with anticipation, "Feng, Feng, when will you forge the equipment from the Magic Tower?"
Qin Feng knew that the "equipment in the Demon Tower" she mentioned referred to demonized equipment.
She looked at Chen Sha: "Shasha, do you want to wear the demonized equipment?"
Chen Sha blinked, "Ah Feng likes it! Ah Feng, you should do what you like."
At that moment, Qin Feng's tears welled up.
After a while, Chen Sha died.
The girl who always clamored to try all the delicious food in the world is dead.
Qin Feng finally learned the truth about Yang Qing's father's death from her.
It turns out that her father, Qin Zheng, also died from the corruption of demonic energy.
What she had vaguely guessed at the time came true.
The price she paid was that she lost Chen Sha forever.
Out of guilt and remorse, Qin Feng once contemplated suicide.
It was Qingfeng who pulled her back from the brink of death.
"Do you think Sasha would be happy if you died like this?"
"Sasha wants you to do what you love more than anyone else. Can you bear to disappoint her?"
"Qin Feng, go and help her fulfill her wish."
At that moment, Qin Feng suddenly woke up.
Yes, she can't die yet.
She was going to forge a piece of enchanted equipment, something she had promised Sasha.
She wanted to taste all the delicious food in Sasha's place.
She also wanted to find Mingqing and ask him why he had encouraged them to enter the tower in the first place.
From then on, Qin Feng devoted himself to studying the demonized equipment every day, almost to the point of neglecting to eat or sleep.
Later, before Yang Qing died of illness, she held Qin Feng's hand and told her not to research demonized equipment anymore, and not to enter the Tower of Babel again.
Then he passed away.
Qin Feng has fallen into a vicious cycle.
On one hand, she promised her friend to forge a piece of enchanted equipment, while on the other hand, her mother's dying words told her to give it up.
She didn't know what to do.
Meng Qingyin's appearance made her make a certain decision.
