Chapter 277: There will be no future if you can't feel sincerity
"Indeed, I was in the clan land when I was in hibernation, and when I woke up I was in this gloomy place. I don't know which bad guy pulled me out and brought me here." Meng Qingcao said angrily.
"Before we transformed, our bodies were extremely fragile, and the currents above were too strong. I tried to go up, but my roots were almost broken by the strong currents, and I couldn't go back to the Dream Sea by myself." Meng Qingcao said with a depressed mood.
"It's really cold here."
Song Ningshu stretched out her hand towards it. It looked at her and jumped into her palm. "You smell so good."
"If you want, I can take you up there."
"Thank you, you are such a kind and beautiful nun!" It was happy.
"Are you a female grass or a male grass?" Song Ningshu pointed at its flower.
"Our Dream Love Grass doesn't distinguish between male and female before it transforms. Once we can transform, we can choose whether to become a male or female cultivator."
"But most of the grass in the clan land that can transform chooses to become female cultivators. If I can transform, I will also become a female cultivator, a beautiful female cultivator~"
"However, the number of grasses in our tribe has decreased. Many bad guys, in order to prove whether they and their partners are truly in love, pull us grasses out of the Dream Love Sea to test our partners' sincerity."
"After the test, they didn't send us back to the Dream Sea, and we couldn't go back on our own. In the end, a lot of grass died outside."
"I suspect I was pulled out secretly. Maybe the bad guy lost me along the way, and I fell here."
"To prove your sincerity, you can speak and swear, so why do you have to travel thousands of miles to the Dream Sea?" Song Ningshu asked.
"Because their love isn't pure, they're afraid of heavenly punishment if they change their minds and stop loving each other, so they don't dare swear an oath. But they also want to prove their love for each other and create a romantic relationship, so they go to the Dream Love Sea. This way, we suffer."
"Many people or demons form partnerships without signing a Heavenly Dao Contract, fearing the punishment of the contract. I've heard from other grasses that some people even force us to bloom to deceive others."
"When you are insincere in your vows and will be punished, choose to let the Dream Love Grass bloom to prove your love for the other person. This is the method with the least cost."
"But the Dao Companion Contract can be terminated."
"Hmm... that's the logic, yes." Meng Qingcao shook her body. "But if you cancel the contract, you'll still be punished by a drop in your cultivation level. This is the rule of heaven that restricts cultivators who break their promises and have unstable hearts."
"Every monk must pay the price for the promises they made and the things they did."
"Those monks are afraid of punishment, so they don't sign contracts. It's because it's too difficult for some monks to improve their cultivation."
"I can enjoy the intimacy of the person I'm flirting with right now, without having to pay the price for a change of heart later on. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"
Song Ningshu nodded at its body and said, "How many years have you been practicing? You speak very clearly."
"It has been a thousand years since I became conscious. I heard from those predecessors who took human form that they often discussed how true love changes rapidly and love is fleeting." It rubbed the palm of Song Ningshu's hand.
"But don't worry, your Taoist partner really loves you. This is the first time I've felt such pure love."
"But you don't seem to have a Taoist Companion Contract. Why is that? Are you afraid of changing your mind in the future?"
"It's not that I'm afraid, it's that we haven't done it yet. We need to go and gain experience, and then when we get home, we'll get married in front of our elders and relatives." Song Ningshu placed it on the stone next to him. "I can feel that he likes me, or even the love you mentioned."
Not only are plants with clean scents attractive to her, she also likes these pure spiritual plants.
"I can tell you for sure, as long as he doesn't change, then I won't change either. In my opinion, a contract is a constraint, but it's also a kind of romance."
"Because of love and liking, I will make a promise for the future."
“With some people, you can tell at a glance whether they are worth making friends with or worth getting along with.”
"Monks are used to using oaths to prove authenticity and contracts to verify sincerity, but in daily life, if I can't feel sincerity, I won't think about having a future with anyone."
"I have a strong sense of whether a person is pure and sincere. In my case, I will only make a vow and a contract with him if he has my approval."
"Absolutely not. I made those promises, saying I will treat you well in the future, and then I will feel whether my heart is true or not."
“Sometimes, when you feel true love, even without vows or contracts, you can still feel at peace.”
"At this moment, vows and contracts are just icing on the cake, not a bondage."
"What you said seems to be quite right." Meng Qingcao thought for a moment, then said, "It's quite different from what my predecessors said."
"Right or wrong, this is just my own understanding. Everyone has different views on feelings, cultivation, status, and perspectives, so naturally there will be different understandings." Song Ningshu touched its leaves.
"Only by experiencing it yourself can you know whether it is right or wrong. Other people's experiences are, after all, other people's experiences. They cannot be taken as the standard or recited blindly."
"Oh~" The flowers on Mengqingcao's head bloomed bigger and bigger.
Song Ningshu looked at it and asked, "How many years does it take for you to transform?"
"If it's fast, it will take about 1,100 to 200 years, and if it's slow, it will take more than 2,000 years. But although we have cultivation and good aptitude, our combat effectiveness is very low."
Song Ningshu nodded, "If your combat ability is low, then just practice more. Except for some special cases, no one is born to be the strongest."
"Oh, that's right. We in the Mengqingcao clan seem to have rarely fought before. Maybe we can try fighting."
Mengqingcao moved its roots closer to her, "It's really comfortable next to you. I feel like I'm absorbing spiritual energy much faster."
Song Ningshu didn't say anything, quietly feeling the distance between him and Qi Yangui moving rapidly.
Qi Yangui kicked a shrimp monster and sent it flying.
The sea sand was rising and the water was slightly turbid.
"No more fighting!" The shrimp demon suddenly blocked its head with its claws and rolled itself up into a ball. "Your realm is lower than mine, how can you be so good at fighting?! It hurts so much to hit a demon!"
Qi Yangui patted its arched back with his sword and said, "Two more rounds, and I'll give you a few more pills. I haven't had enough of beating you yet."
"No, it hurts!"
"Ten more." The shrimp demon poked his head out. "I'll find another demon to fight you, okay?"
It can't be the only monster that gets beaten so badly. Good Taoist friends should keep everything together. Anyway, just share some of the pills you get with them.
"Okay, go find it. I'll wait for you outside." Qi Yangui nodded.
