Chapter 20 His Contribution
Qiu Wuji held his breath in the pool and sighed a little, but he was not disappointed, as it was within his expectations.
Although small details like holding down the sleeves of clothes can go against the "records in the book", it is a bit dreamy to reverse major historical events.
If he really went against the grain, the direction of the whole world would inevitably be different from what he wrote. Wouldn't that be a mess?
Strictly speaking, Qiu Wuji was not extremely determined to reverse the situation this time - she knew that the Poisonous Hand Demon Lord had released the centipede, but she did not deal with it in advance, and she wanted to observe what would happen to the centipede. This was not a "must be cut off" idea, but an observation, so it was not surprising that it eventually failed.
She didn't know why she wasn't so resolute... Maybe, there was a slight possibility, she was worried that if the reversal really happened, it would cause problems for Chu Ge? At the very least, his books would collapse and his grades would be lost, or at worst, it would affect his health or even safety?
have no idea.
But in the end, he still used all his ultimate skills and guarded against sneak attacks, but was strangely "corrected"... I don't know whether I should be disappointed or relieved.
Qiu Wuji shook his head slightly. He couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he stopped worrying about it and concentrated on suppressing the poison.
According to Chu Ge's setting, this Dragon Falling Pond was formed when an ancient blue dragon fell here, left its shed scales, and left after recovering from its wounds. Therefore, the pond is full of poisons forced out by the blue dragon. The shed scales are suppressed on the pond to counteract the poisons in the pond.
Theoretically, this poison is not too troublesome. The ancient Azure Dragon has ascended to the heavens. Its cultivation before its ascension is roughly similar to Qiu Wuji's at this moment. If it can force the poison out, then Qiu Wuji can certainly do it too.
Chu Ge didn't write how much time Qinglong spent and how much pain he endured, but it was not easy. If Qiu Wuji was forced to take the poison for ten thousand years, the sect would definitely fall apart, and his own path to ascension would also be in jeopardy. Therefore, forcing the poison out was definitely not an option, and detoxification was necessary.
Normally, if someone falls into a pool and gets poisoned, they must leave the pool immediately. But this time, Qiu Wuji not only did not leave, but dived deeper into the pool. With his mind open, he saw a bright mushroom growing on the edge of the pool bottom through the mist.
It looked like a poisonous mushroom, but Qiu Wuji smiled instead.
This is what he wrote in his later revised manuscript, "You found the antidote at the bottom of the pool yourself, it has nothing to do with Chu Tiange anymore."
This is also in line with his "logic". Things that grow in highly toxic places are often antidotes. It's just that under normal circumstances, you won't search at the bottom of the pond. Once you decide to search, you can save yourself.
Qiu Wuji sneaked to the edge of the mushroom and reached out to stroke it gently. It was bright red because it was poisonous, but now it looked cute. Touching the mushroom head felt like rubbing Chu Ge's dog head with a smile.
She picked the mushrooms and swallowed them without hesitation, then slipped away from the bottom of the pool.
Just as he was sitting cross-legged outside the pool and practicing his skills, he heard footsteps. Chu Tiange stumbled in through the hole that the Poisonous Hand Demon Lord had opened earlier.
"Uh... Sect Master? See you, Sect Master." Chu Tiange saw Qiu Wuji's pale face and asked hurriedly, "Is the Sect Master injured?"
Qiu Wuji opened his eyes and smiled slightly: "I was accidentally poisoned and I am trying to neutralize it. I know you have a snake saliva fruit in your pocket that can neutralize the poison. Keep it for your own alchemy. It's a good thing."
Chu Tiange: “…”
The sect master's ability to predict the future is truly unfathomable. Of course, such a strong man can cure himself of poisoning. There is nothing to ask. Chu Tiange felt a deep sense of awe for the sect master and retreated obediently.
Qiu Wuji watched his back as he left, knowing that the red thread that someone had been pulling at had now been completely severed.
Theoretically, this copy was designed specifically for Chu Tiange, and the others were just supporting roles. But since he was in it, Qiu Wuji was not without benefits.
The Azure Dragon's shed scales were necessary for her to construct the Four Symbols Formation, so she didn't mention that. As the saying goes, good fortune often comes with misfortune. The process of drawing poison and detoxifying poison can be regarded as a process of tempering the body at her level, and the dragon blood will on the Azure Dragon's shed scales is an excellent thing for tempering the soul.
Tempering the soul... Qiu Wuji stretched out his hand to take the shed scales of the Azure Dragon and stroked the faint blood color on it.
Next time you go there, how long can you stay?
…………
"This is outrageous. Qiu Wuji picked mushrooms to detoxify himself?"
"Is this the mushroom I was thinking of?"
"Chu Tiange went through so much trouble and just went in to talk to Qiu Wuji for a few words and left? He got Qiu Wuji's attention and thought that he had good luck and was worth cultivating, and that was it?"
"Chu Da, just blink if you're kidnapped."
"I thought this book was about harem, but now it seems off."
"Is the author an idiot? Are you kidding me?"
Chu Ge leaned back in his chair, silently watching the explosion in the book review section without saying a word.
This is a natural result. In harem novels, the heroine is poisoned. Instead of using aphrodisiacs to cure the poison, the protagonist should at least go in to support her and flirt with her. Whether it is good or not depends on your writing skills. How many gentlemen have skipped the dungeon plot for several days, just waiting for this moment.
However, it is not even written, and the heroine being poisoned is equivalent to not being poisoned. Then what is the point of designing this plot? Is this even a harem novel?
It is normal for readers to be furious. If Chu Ge himself read the book and saw this, he would also curse.
But Qiu Wuji said that no more bumping into each other was allowed.
Not to mention that she didn't allow it, Chu Ge himself didn't want to do it either.
Get out of here, Chu Tiange. Who are you? Are you worthy enough?
snort.
Taking the risk of his book failing completely and being jealous of his own protagonist, Chu Ge didn't know if he was a unique author who had never been seen before or will never be seen again. But he didn't regret it.
Just for Qiu Wujie's vivid smile, I have no regrets.
As for the future of the book... it depends on whether Zhang Qiren's original proposal is feasible... slowly turning it into stock speculation, or even not speculating in stocks at all, and turning it to a story without a female protagonist, with all the beauties being skeletons, that's not impossible, there will be a group of audiences.
Chu Ge even came up with a more radical idea, to directly use Qiu Wuji as the protagonist and write a story with a strong female lead. Thinking of this, I felt a little funny. If I said that changing to stock trading might improve the performance, and changing to no female lead might change a group of readers, the performance would not be doomed, and there would still be a chance. But changing to a strong female lead would be a sure failure, because this is not a female-oriented story.
After laughing to himself for a while, Chu Ge finally sighed softly.
They say they are walking out of the prison they have created...but the future is uncertain and this is a gamble.
Besides, no one wants to be scolded like a spammer...
He shook his head and reached out to close the webpage, thinking that out of sight, out of mind. He picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip. The cup was empty, and Chu Ge stood up and prepared to get some water to drink.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Qiu Wuji standing quietly behind him, his eyes seemed to have just been taken away from the web page that had been crossed out and fell on his face.
The two stood face to face as if frozen in time, staring at each other quietly. Chu Ge was still holding a cup in his hand, which seemed a little funny, but neither of them cared.
There seemed to be something covering the eyes of both people, making it difficult to see clearly.
After a long while, Qiu Wuji smiled slightly and said softly, "Thank you."
