"Sun Ning, did you hear your parents' conversation that day?" Chen Siqi asked.
Sun Ning nodded, was silent for a while, and then pretended to smile and said, "In fact, from the moment I took the sleeping pills, I was already dead. Now I can be considered to have been reborn!"
Ji Ming seemed to understand something, and gently took Sun Ning's hand and said: "Ning'er, let me protect you from now on. I won't let you suffer any grievances again."
"You make me sound like a vase. I have hands and feet. Do I need your protection?" Sun Ning said with a smile.
"Cough~ cough~, brother, Sun Ning is awake now, shall we go back to Miancheng now?" Chen Siqi coughed twice.
"Well, Ji Ming, what are your plans? Will you stay in Haidu or go back to Miancheng?" Li Mu asked.
"This... Ning'er, what do you think?" Ji Ming asked Sun Ning. Although he wanted to return to Miancheng to accompany his mother, Sun Ning was a native of Haidu after all, so he still had to ask her opinion.
"I...I'll go to Miancheng with you. There's nothing left in this city that I want to stay for!" Sun Ning said shyly.
"Haha, good. My mother will be very happy to see you!" Ji Ming said happily.
"Okay, I'll ask Xiao Chen to help us book the tickets!" Li Mu said as he called Chen Tianhua and asked him to help him book the tickets. Since Zhao Gan arranged for Chen Tianhua to receive him, he must have promised Chen Tianhua some benefits, and he wouldn't feel like he owed Chen Tianhua a favor or anything like that.
"Ning'er, I'm sorry for you!" Ji Ming said. He still felt a little sorry for Sun Ning for making her leave her hometown and the city where she grew up.
"Why are you feeling aggrieved? In fact, I have always longed for life in a small city. Although a big city like Haidu looks prosperous, it lacks a lot of the worldly atmosphere." Sun Ning said with a smile.
"What? You said Miancheng is a small city?" Chen Siqi looked strange.
"That's not what I meant. I don't mean to look down on Miancheng. What I mean is that compared to an international metropolis like Haidu, Miancheng's economy is a little bit worse..." Sun Ning explained quickly. Li Mu and his friends all lived in Miancheng, and it would indeed make people feel uncomfortable to say that their hometown was a small city in front of others.
"Brother Ji Ming, please explain the current world to Sun Ning. My brother and I will not disturb you any more." Chen Siqi said as she pulled Li Mu out of the room, leaving Ji Ming and Li Mu alone.
"Uh... Ning'er, times have changed. You know Jishige, right?" Ji Ming said somewhat embarrassedly.
"I know, the famous Dingyuan Pills come from Jishige, what's wrong?" Sun Ning asked puzzledly.
"Jishige is in Miancheng!" Ji Mingdao.
"I know this too. Haha, you once boasted about it in front of me. You were so proud of it, as if Jishige was from your family!" Sun Ning said with a smile.
"It has been more than three years now. Do you know the size of Jishige?" Ji Ming continued to ask.
"It's just a company, how big can it be? 10 trillion?" Sun Ning's guess was very bold.
Ji Ming shook his head and said with some pride: "Jishi Pavilion is now rich enough to rival a country!"
Sun Ning smiled and said, "Is there any difference? Not to mention a company with a scale of 10 trillion, even a company with a scale of several hundred billion can be called rich enough to rival a country, right?"
Ji Ming smiled and said, "When I say rich enough to rival a country, I don't mean compared with those small countries. The country I'm talking about is the land under your feet!"
"Daxia? How can Jishige, a single enterprise, be compared with the entire Daxia?" Sun Ning was shocked. Isn't this too exaggerated?
Ji Ming shook his head and said, "Isn't Jishige Pavilion also within Daxia? Naturally, it is also counted as Daxia's production value. I mean, through the center of the earth, to the land on the opposite side, Country M!"
"How is it possible? I remember that our Da Xia couldn't even compare with the economy of Country M back then. How can one company now be the entire Country M?" Sun Ning felt that his worldview had been overturned.
"This is still conservative. Moreover, most of Jishige's production lines are in Miancheng, and the rest are all in several cities near Miancheng. The area formed by several cities is called the Immortal Forbidden Land! Do you think Miancheng is still a small city now?" Ji Ming said with a smile.
"This is too incredible. It means that there is no city in the whole world more powerful than Miancheng. No, not only that, I'm afraid that even the remaining nine cities in the top ten combined are not as powerful as Miancheng, right?" Sun Ning sighed.
"That's right, but the most powerful thing about Miancheng is not its economy, but its name as the Forbidden Land of Immortals!" Ji Ming said proudly.
"Puchi, this name is so childish, does it have any meaning?" Sun Ning said with a smile.
"It means exactly what it says. Immortals have to abide by the rules when they enter. Oh, you don't know about immortals yet, Ning'er. The world has changed. More than three years ago, many people who could fly and hide in the ground suddenly came to this world, just like the immortals in the legend. It is said that they all came from a place called the Small Immortal Realm, and that Small Immortal Realm has also merged with the Earth. Moreover, now anyone with the qualifications to practice can practice and have the opportunity to become an immortal who can fly and hide in the ground. Alas, what a pity. I don't have the talent for practice, so I can only be an ordinary person. I can only sigh and envy the immortals!" Li Ming sighed.
When Sun Ning heard this, the smile on his face disappeared instantly. He first touched Ji Ming's forehead and found that he did not have any symptoms of fever. Then he said solemnly: "Ji Ming, tell me, are you kidding me?"
Ji Ming shook his head and said, "No, I will never lie to you in my life."
Sun Ning burst into tears and said, "Ji Ming, don't worry. No matter how much it costs, I will definitely cure you. I used to know a psychiatrist. She must have a way to cure you!"
Ji Ming smiled bitterly, wiped away Sun Ning's tears, and said with a smile: "Ning'er, what are you thinking about? I am mentally normal."
Then, Ji Ming turned on the TV and changed the channel: "Look, this channel is a satellite TV station that specializes in reporting news among monks."
Sun Ning was puzzled and looked at the TV. The logo in the upper left corner of the TV was a snow mountain, and the text below was "Kunlun Satellite TV".
"Recently, the Tianxuan Sect and the Qingyang Sect have been conducting an exchange of immortal arts. The outstanding disciples of the two sects have actively participated, each displaying their unique skills, and no one died. This reflects the friendly competitive spirit of our generation of cultivators."
On the screen, disciples from two sects were engaging in a dazzling battle of magic.
"In the early hours of last night, the Kunlun Law Enforcement Team uncovered a major weapons counterfeiting case. It is reported that a large number of imitation Ancient Sword Sect weapons have entered the market. I hope that fellow Taoists will carefully distinguish when purchasing!"
"These counterfeiters are so hateful. They have seriously affected the reputation of our Gu Jianmen. They must be severely punished!" A man in a Taoist robe was standing at the gate of Gu Jianmen and was interviewed.
......
Watching the content on TV, Sun Ning murmured: "It turns out that you are not crazy, but I am not awake yet!"
