Chapter 160 Kunling Sect (Partially from Aquan’s perspective)
In fact, at the beginning, A Quan didn’t believe the words of the God of Highway at all.
"The player's body is left behind because we have a use for it, it doesn't mean the player is really dead. You can complete the game with high expectations. You will see your friends when you go back."
"You've been here for a month. It's impossible to clear the level again. Otherwise, time will be messed up. The flow of time here is different from that in the outside world. Although you have been in the game for a month and seem to be far behind other players, as long as you clear the level, you will regain consciousness at the same time as other players."
"Believe it or not, it can't hurt to give it a try, right?"
"You have already hidden the remains of your companions in your body. There is an opportunity to pass the level right in front of you. There is no reason for you to hesitate."
Out of his obsession with clearing the level, A Quan accepted the mission of the God of the Road and followed behind Ji Weihang, waiting for an opportunity to act, at the very least hindering the opponent's actions, at the worst killing him.
Of course, the God of Highway did not explain the reason for issuing this task. It was Ah Quan who perceived some of the ideas through the connection between himself and the God of Highway.
She had no chance because she failed to stop the smugglers and was imprisoned in the dungeon. Fortunately, she had good eloquence and did not cause much harm to the smugglers. With Agger's protection, she got another chance.
After the black and white chessboard appeared, its priority overshadowed other tasks. She then thought that she could cooperate with other players instead of going against them. Following Ager, she was able to join them.
After completing the game, she returned to the original world. Just like the previous time, only fifteen minutes had passed.
These fifteen minutes seemed like a lifetime to her, as if they were from another world.
When they came to their senses, all the contact information they had with the captain and Afuga had disappeared, proving that they had failed to pass the level.
She gathered her thoughts, had a meal, and then set out to find the captain.
Ah Fu's university was far away and difficult to find during weekday class hours, so she planned to go look for her during dinner time.
You have to find a good excuse.
…
The result was beyond Ah Quan's expectations.
When she saw Ah Fu squatting in the cafeteria to eat, she tried to bump into Ah Fu who was carrying the rice, but Ah Fu managed to dodge swiftly without spilling the soup. He looked at her with some surprise: "Hey, you are not..."
He looked familiar, but he couldn't figure out who it was. Ah Fu frowned, feeling a little strange, and said frankly: "Have we met before? I think you look familiar."
Ah Quan was a little surprised. The captain looked at him as if he were a complete stranger, so why did Ah Fu seem to have retained some of his memories?
Confused in his heart, he said on the surface: "Sorry for almost bumping into you. Actually, I also thought you looked familiar... Did you go to XX High School?"
Ah Fu has a round face and a plump figure, and looks very blessed. Hearing this, his eyes widened in surprise, "Yes, we have met before? Could it be a senior?"
A Quan looked older than her, dressed formally, and his eyes did not have the clarity of a student raised in an ivory tower.
Ah Quan made up a story: "I used to work there, and I think I saw you a few times."
"So that's how it is. We are destined to meet each other." Ah Fu nodded, found an empty seat, and asked her to sit down with him so as not to block his way. He scooped a large spoonful of rice with stir-fried pork and green peppers into his mouth, chewed and swallowed, smiled with satisfaction, and then thought of her and asked, "Why are you here?"
Ah Quan also scooped a spoonful of rice into his mouth and said, "I came to meet a friend...but she didn't have time, so I thought, since I'm here, I might as well have a meal."
"Yeah, now that we're here... the food in our school is pretty good." Ah Fu said with a smile, "And if it weren't for this, we wouldn't have met. It's really fate."
Seeing Ah Fu's eyes narrowed into slits due to his laughter, Ah Quan also smiled and said, "Yes."
After finishing their meal, the two added each other's contact information. Ah Fu went to the playground to walk around to digest his food, while Ah Quan left and took the skytrain home.
There were not too many people on the skytrain, and she stood there in a daze, not conspicuous.
Everything went too smoothly, it was unbelievable.
But they got along well to begin with, so it was normal for them to reconnect.
I just don’t know why Ah Fu is so special?
Could it be because Ah Fu gained special abilities when he entered the Security Department?
After leaving the game, she always felt that everything was not real enough, as if she had not left and was still in a fake world.
...are there any aftereffects?
Her eyes swept blankly past the dazzling billboard of "Yuanzhen Game Studio" outside the window, and she suppressed the boredom in her heart.
The skytrain was very fast and she returned home quickly.
"Master, welcome home."
The smart housekeeper automatically turned on the lights, and at her command, opened the curtains to let in the moonlight and neon lights.
Familiar scenery heightens the sense of reality.
She felt more at ease and walked towards the window while thinking about her next move.
This time, she relied on others to pass the level, and luck played a big role. She must improve her own hard power.
Now that the captain and Ah Fu are gone, she must work together with them to realize everyone's common wish.
Standing in front of the window, she could see the aerial light rail winding through the sky not far away, and all kinds of eye-catching advertisements outside the tall buildings.
She knows how other worlds classify the world.
My own world may be somewhere between Interstellar and Cyberpunk, but without superpowers and psychic powers, and the class differences are not as obvious as in Cyberpunk.
But this makes people feel even more hopeless... Having witnessed the clear order in the ghost world and the destructive power in the bird world, no one would not wish to have such power.
A Quan looked at the newly released game trailer on the billboard. The slogan "Kill the devil and win billions in bonuses" was sensational and obvious. It was a new work from a female studio that had become famous in recent years. The daughter of the person in charge had been in a car accident not long ago and became a vegetable.
Even if you have money, there are always things you can't do.
It's different if you have absolutely powerful strength...
A Quan's fingertips moved along the projection light of the game trailer on the window, and finally drew a mark under the devil's beautiful head with a little force.
And the path to great power lies before her.
She put her hand on the window glass to suppress the heat in her heart.
The game is a great window, and the adventure is worth it.
Originally, the Female Eagle Wings team had a common ambitious plan, but now she is alone. She doesn't know how far she can go or how long she can go, nor does she know if she can bear the weight of changing the fate of the world alone.
She could only try her best.
Ding Dong
A message alert came from the mobile phone.
[Sister Lingquan, are you home yet? [Poke.jpg]]
It’s Ah Fu.
She looked down, a faint smile appeared on her face, and replied:
[Well, I'm home.]
[That's good. [Puppy is happy.jpg]]
This child still loves to use emoticons.
Ling Quan didn’t talk much with Afu. There were only eighteen hours left until the next game, and she had to improve her strength.
Strength may not be omnipotent.
But without power, there is no possibility of choice.
She picked up the prop fruit knife from the fruit plate on the coffee table and put it in her pocket, ready to go out.
——
Ji Weihang looked at the territory of Kunling Sect. As far as his sight could see was farmland stretching for hundreds of miles. A wide river flowed through the center of the farmland. The river originated from the Kunling Mountains where Kunling Sect was located, and at its end it merged into the Ji River, one of the mother rivers.
At this time, a Five Elements Boat was floating on the river, and the corpse turned into misty smoke rising up in the flames.
The oldest five-element funeral ceremony in Jijiang Continent.
Her face is covered with golden makeup, her body is pressed on a wooden bed, the bottom of the boat is made of earth, she travels on the water, her body is burned by fire, and she returns to the world.
Watching the Five Elements Boat burn out and the soil sink into the water, Ji Weihang inexplicably recalled that he had also floated downstream in the same way in the past and met his master's wife.
A person's life begins with water and ends with water.
Will her life end on the water?
She immediately cast aside all distracting thoughts and looked towards the Kunling Mountains.
This is the center of the entire Jijiang Continent. The land is fertile and flat. It has been under the rule of Kunling Sect since ancient times.
Kunling Sect is a major agricultural producer, responsible for 70% of the agricultural products supplied to the entire human race. Of the remaining 30%, most of it is due to the methods of tending the fields taught by the Kunling Sect’s maids, and a small part comes from the deals made with the demon race.
More than 900 years ago, after the extinction of the last human dynasty, the Zhao Dynasty, the system of the sects governing the major cities has continued to this day, and there is no concept of a national court. Except for the sects sending people to govern the cities, most sects will not interfere too much in local affairs. The advantage of this is that each place can handle affairs according to local conditions and have a certain degree of autonomy. The disadvantage is that the sects sometimes fail to properly govern some remote places.
Therefore, each major clan would send their concubines down the mountain every year to travel and inspect, with the aim of supplementing the maps of the sphere of influence and understanding the people's sentiments.
The people of Kunling Sect eat the best among the eight major sects.
They are the best at farming, and most of the food comes from their hands.
In fact, if one wants to communicate with heaven and earth, the Yingtian Sect located in the north would be better than the Kunling Sect.
Ji Weihang chose to come to Kunling Sect because - on the one hand, Yingtian Sect was the most pedantic and an antique among the cultivators. When she was a child, they often wanted to take her back to be the spokesperson for the Heavenly Dao and to be the "Son of Heaven" in the Exue Peak. She didn't like them, and their strength was much stronger than that of Kunling Sect which specialized in land. On the other hand, she wanted to go to Kunling Sect to ask Yi Gou, who was of the same generation as her, some questions.
She hadn't heard from her in a long time.
She easily sneaked into the Kunling Gate's barrier, quietly released her spiritual sense, and searched for news about Yi Gou, but heard nothing, as if this person did not exist.
This was exactly what she was worried about.
Fifty years ago, she was able to escape from the Mingxian Sect because Yi Gou helped her cover up.
After that, Yi Gou rarely appeared in the public eye. Many people said that she was researching some new crops, but she believed that like her other friends, Yi Gou had been suppressed in some way.
——That’s what she thought before.
Now, there is a huge hidden story behind what happened back then, so her other friends should not have been suppressed as she thought.
So, what were they doing? Why was there no news of them in the world of immortal cultivation?
The rapidly observing spiritual consciousness received feedback: someone walked into the master's bedroom with something.
The head of the sect was not there, so why did the old woman come in alone? Suspicious.
She thought about it, used the dark followers to cover her voice, and sneaked into the headmaster's bedroom through the shadows of the window gap, silently watching the actions of the young woman.
Kunling Sect has three people who have achieved out-of-body experience, but none of them have become spirits. Those in the out-of-body stage are either away or in seclusion, so she can be bolder in her actions.
The young woman pressed a switch and walked into the ancient painting hanging in the middle of the bookcase.
She remembered something and walked in.
The strange and fresh fragrance hits you in the face, making you feel refreshed.
Just as she thought, this was the secret place where Kunling Sect specialized in cultivating new, experimental and precious crops.
His spiritual consciousness subconsciously spread out, and he heard the voice of a young man next to him:
"Senior Sister Yigui, this is the homework the old ladies handed in today."
