Chapter 282 "You think too much."
"what happens?!"
"That monk named Mei seems to be crazy!"
"Bang!"
The subordinate who opened his mouth was blown away by the strong wind. He was about to curse, but realized that such power must come from his boss. Another subordinate, realizing what his superior was about to do, yelled, "Master, you can't..."
Merlin certainly looked like he was going mad. His eyes were red as he channeled true energy into the girl's body. But there was a circle of spherical blue lightning surrounding him, and the electric current was crackling in the air.
And his master, despite the powerful electric current, stepped closer to the boy.
"This thing doesn't look like something that can be made by a Yuanying stage... There's something fishy about this kid's identity!" Shi Ruzhuo shouted, "And what's wrong with him? He seems to be going crazy all of a sudden... What are you doing, brat?!"
Although he had walked a long distance under the electric current, and although he was only one step away, Lian Chengyue could no longer get even one step closer to the boy. He glanced at Merlin while enduring the electric current and wanted to retreat. But suddenly, he felt dazed.
“Master…”
Shi Ruzhuo: “Ah?”
Lian Chengyue did not retreat any further. He gritted his teeth and his eyes finally fell on the girl in Merlin's arms.
Merlin is not crazy. The electric current was so powerful that it could destroy the heaven and earth and lash out at nearby objects. But it created a safe zone around the dying girl.
This is the only way to calm him down.
Before his mind could think, Lian Chengyue had already taken out a bead from his hand. A drop of blood spit out from his mouth. As the blood flowed out, Lian Chengyue, who was approaching Ning Mingmei under the strong electric current, turned pale in an instant.
"You kid..." Shi Ruzhuo's voice came intermittently, "Isn't this the new magic you learned in the ghost world? How can you use that? How can you use your own blood?! At this time..."
Liancheng Yue is silent. He watched his blood merge with the bead and waved. Under the effect of the spell, the girl's lips opened and he threw the bead, letting it slide into the girl's body.
That is a soul-fixing bead that contains the essence and blood of the ancient sword spirit.
"Then now is not a good time to conserve your strength." It was not until this moment that Lian Chengyue spoke calmly.
"You're crazy too... Are you willing to go to this extent for your master?" Shi Ruzhuo was horrified. "Besides, he is just your master's child!"
Lian Chengyue closed her eyes and said bewilderedly, "No, he reminds me of my master."
The girl's body originally looked like a broken bag. Although the true energy that Ning Mingmei injected was slowly repairing her, most of the true energy flowed out after being input, like a trap that always used a little hope as bait, but made people fall deeper and deeper into it. Her vitality is like the wind that cannot be chased. Only Ning Mingmei can hear it and chase the sound of the wind that cannot be stopped in the wilderness.
But the bead turned into an airtight membrane, blocking the hole in the bag. Afterwards, more vitality emanated from the essence and blood that condensed Lian Chengyue's cultivation. The two true energies, one coming from the inside and the other from the outside, these two true energies with different sources and characteristics are now perfectly intertwined with each other, and finally weave a web of vitality.
The electrical storm around Merlin weakened slightly. At that moment, Lian Chengyue looked at Merlin, but felt as if he saw Ning Mingmei.
Everyone said that Lian Chengyue was the Qingji Sect's scroll king. Lian Chengyue ran with all his strength. In fact, only Lian Chengyue knew that this was not the case.
There was a person in Qingji Sect who was also running. Because of his lofty status, people often overlook the fact that he is also a runner, a runner with no way out.
While Lian Chengyue was working late into the night, Ning Mingmei was also staying up all night revising his disciple's thesis. While Lian Chengyue was constantly trying to build interpersonal relationships, Ning Mingmei was also networking with other sects in order to build a larger, more stable and unbreakable network. While Lian Chengyue was boasting about his travel experiences, Ning Mingmei was constantly forcing himself to come up with new ideas to prove that the boundaries of this world were not what they seemed.
Ning Mingmei is running. He ran so fast, not only in the vertical direction, but also in the horizontal direction. Is he going to run over the class barrier that has stood in the world of immortal cultivation for tens of millions of years? Is what he wants to escape from the destiny he was born with? What exactly is that shadow that keeps blocking his way and that he must run past?
If Ning Mingmei was not there, how would Lian Chengyue run? Since he hates everything in this world and all the opponents he faces, even if he runs to the end, his life will just be like stepping over countless pieces of rotten meat, right?
Perhaps because of the loss of essence and blood, Lian Chengyue felt that he was having hallucinations. He seemed to see the young Ning Mingmei standing in front of him, gritting his teeth, looking frustrated, feeling that if he made just one mistake, he would lose the world.
Lian Chengyue is not a person who is good at empathy. He regards the older Ning Mingmei as a mentor, but how will he treat Ning Mingmei, who is the same age as him?
Maybe you would consider him as your rival? But even so...
"Don't worry..." Lian Chengyue said, "It's not too late. It's not too late for everything. You run so fast, faster than me. If there's still something you can't do, it would be too unfair."
"No."
At that moment, Lian Chengyue felt vaguely that it was Ning Mingmei who was talking to him.
He looked at him coldly, but did not notice the grievance in his eyes: "You don't understand anything."
Lian Chengyue seemed to have endless abilities, and he felt that he could do whatever Ning Mingmei wanted to do. At this moment, he seemed to be more than just himself, more than just himself in this life.
"I will guard the gates you can't defend. I will clear the way for you if you can't cut all the thorns. I will cover your retreat if you want to charge. Besides me, there will be more people following you, and they will do whatever you need."
"They are blind and they don't understand anything," said the young man Ning Mingmei.
"Yes, this world is full of fools. So we smart people should help each other. I will trick them into helping you. You don't have to worry about being alone anymore. You will run faster than anyone else."
"..." The young man Ning Mingmei opened his mouth, and finally, he lowered his head, "There is always something...it won't happen."
At that moment, Ning Mingmei became a young man. The young man Ning Mingmei was wearing glasses. He looked a little tired and a little indifferent.
"But no matter how fast I run, I can't outrun time—and neither can you."
Lian Chengyue looked at him, and at that moment, he suddenly felt that a question that had lingered in his mind as if for billions of years had been answered.
"The world has a past, but it also has a future," Lian Chengyue said.
At that moment, Lian Chengyue suddenly heard a chuckle.
His consciousness shuddered and then returned to his body. Lian Chengyue covered his chest and slowly leaned against the wall. His face suddenly changed color and he shouted at the sky: "Who are you?!"
In the past, at the moment of life and death, Lian Chengyue also had such a cry. But he never got a response. But this time, he heard a slight laugh.
Lian Chengyue was stunned. He looked at his chest; the laughter seemed to come from within his body. He gritted his teeth again and said, "Who are you?"
I am you.
The voice said.
"Wha-what did you say-"
Then there was no sound.
Lian Chengyue woke up completely. There is no Ning Mingmei in front of me, only Merlin.
He looked at Merlin in front of him, with surprise and doubt in his eyes, which eventually turned into a tentative determination.
…
The girl slowly woke up. She saw the light flickering, and saw two people sitting next to the light, seemingly talking.
"I didn't expect you to be so kind." said the thin man.
"I just think that if the girl doesn't get better immediately, you will blame yourself and won't want to leave."
"...Get well immediately? I just want her to survive." The man who answered said, "Who would want a seriously injured mortal to get well immediately?"
"Really? I forgot. Maybe what I was thinking at that time was just to solve your problem as quickly as possible." said another person.
"...Oh. We don't know each other very well yet."
The girl whimpered in pain. The two men heard it and stood up. One of the young men asked, "Have your men found the entrance to the secret passage to Changle Gate?"
“I haven’t found it yet.”
"Really? Time waits for no one. So I'll go in a different way."
"Wait...wait!" The girl heard the sound coming from her throat. She thought she would never have the chance to speak again in her life: "I know where the secret passage is!"
She tried her best to make a sound, just to express her joy at being resurrected and her gratitude to the two of them. However, she found that the boy was not very happy about her gratitude.
He just looked at her, a little dazed and a little confused.
…
"I had poor eyesight when I was young, so when I was very young, I had the ability to remember roads and sounds in the dark. They blindfolded me, led me out of Changle Gate, took me into the secret passage, walked over, and the sound of the mechanism opening, I remember everything."
Under the girl's guidance, Ning Mingmei and others finally found the entrance to the inconspicuous secret passage. The master of Zhaoye Mountain turned the mechanism and opened the secret passage according to the girl's instructions. His subordinates supported the girl and continued to inject true energy into her.
"Can you see now?" Ning Mingmei asked.
The girl's eyes were somewhat sad: "My mother has been seeking medical treatment and medicine for me since I was a child, and she cured my eyes."
It seems that the girl's mother loves her very much, but why later...
"The immortal wanted me, and my mother thought she had finally sent me to the immortal gate, and that someone would be able to take care of me in the future. She was so happy." The girl said dryly, "But who knows what happened later..."
Yes, who knows what happened later.
The secret passage was opened. Apparently, the secret passage was frequently ventilated, so it didn't seem stuffy or smelly at all. The master of Zhaoye Mountain asked his trusted followers to stay in the city and set out with only two people. Ning Mingmei had already raised his foot and walked in front.
"You just lost your true energy. Let them go ahead." The master of Zhaoye Mountain stopped him.
Ning Mingmei said: "No need."
The master of Zhaoye Mountain said, "Please do as I say. I think Brother Mei has his own things to do when he arrives at Changle Gate. If he were to encounter a fierce battle when he sticks his head out, and his true energy hasn't recovered yet, things would be difficult."
Ning Mingmei glanced at him and actually made concessions. Two subordinates of the master of Zhaoye Mountain were exploring the way ahead. The Master of Zhaoye Mountain walked beside Ning Mingmei and said, "It seemed that Monk Mei was the type who would not accept my suggestions."
Ning Mingmei said: "Didn't I accept your suggestion just now?"
The Lord of Zhaoye Mountain said, "This also surprised me. I think it was because I rescued the girl together with Monk Mei. Monk Mei thought I was kind-hearted and changed his mind about me."
Ning Mingmei said: "You think too much."
