".As doctors, we have strong vitality. Even if we do this, we only need to rest for a few days. It won't have much impact on us."
"——But that's not the case."
Ruota shook his head and spoke.
"..."
".Mortals always have many delusions, and the master always has people close to him."
"——At that time, demons and gods were fighting, and plagues were rampant.
Master cannot bear the torment of not helping someone when he could have saved them. "
"Faced with the scenes of life and death, giving up life again and again, it eventually reached a point of no return.
The last patient who was treated by the master accepted the contract and vowed to use his own life to save more lives.
"."
After a brief pause, Bai Zhu shook his head.
He also summarized the history of his own school:
"--Each generation is like this, and so is the generation after generation,
The patients who were treated eventually chose to become doctors to treat others, but they all exhausted their vitality on the road of exchanging their lives for others."
"."
"So what do you think? Do you plan to continue this cycle?"
Seeing the sick aura surrounding Bai Zhu, Ruota asked.
"Not anymore."
Bai Shu shook his head as Ruo Tuo looked a little surprised, and said calmly:
"——When the elder sister refused the master's last remaining life to save her husband and left the sect,
I have already decided to let this contract come to an end with me."
"——Use the remaining life of a loved one in exchange for the longer life of another loved one,
Use one life to save the lives of many more."
"But how can such a "good deal" be fair to my masters themselves?"
"."
"—But are you really willing to take this contract to your grave?
I see that you treasure that 'Changsheng' very much."
"."
"Haha, so I am the greedy mortal."
Bai Shu did not give a direct answer.
He just looked up at the sky and said something that was a little unclear:
"——Master once said,
I want to save people, but I don’t want to give up my own life. I also don’t want Changsheng to go to the grave with me because no one inherits the contract.”
".Such greed may not be able to meet the requirements of the inheritance contract."
"——But since I finally succeeded in accepting this contract,
Then why shouldn't I, a selfish moth who longs for light but doesn't want to be burned by fire, give it a try?"
Bai Zhu's emotions did not fluctuate when he said these words.
Although he knew that the immortals in Liyue probably did not have a good impression of his master,
But he still didn't hide anything from Mr. Kun in front of him.
——This was originally his innermost thought, even if it would affect the other party's perception,
But it is always better to say it frankly than to try to please others.
But what surprised Bai Shu was that the man in front of him was most likely Mr. Kun,
It seems that he is not like the immortals in legends who emphasize the principle of moderation in gains and losses and following the laws of nature.
Not only did he not look unhappy, but he laughed and said:
"——Haha, I think I understand why my friend likes you so much."
".There is a limit to life and death, and there are gains and losses. This is indeed the principle that the immortals emphasize.
But who says it is impossible to not make a choice and be a little greedy? "
"."
Although he knows some magic, Ruo Tuo is still a dragon after all, not a fairy in the traditional sense of Liyue.
For the dragon race that once ruled the entire world in ancient times, nothing is absolutely impossible in this world.
His fellow tribesmen were not like the immortals who emphasized the rules of mind and moderation in gains and losses.
Instead, I prefer to be like the person in front of me, trying to change all the things that are not to my liking by myself.
——In the eyes of the dragon race, which values strength, all choices are ultimately made because of lack of ability.
If there is enough power to subvert everything,
So, just like the supreme law of nature, who can stop the order of the entire world from being reshaped by the power of an individual?
He immediately realized the similarities between the person in front of him, himself and the person of the same clan.
While Ruo Tuo was in a good mood, he finally remembered the identity of the white snake named Changsheng:
——If I remember correctly, this seems to be the immortal who was with a weak demon god in Chenyu Valley back then.
As for the name, it should be "Medicine Lord".
On the other side,
Jiang Xi, who had met Ying and Shen He before,
Now we are following a cave that was left behind by the treasure-stealing group a long time ago.
Heading towards the "Chi Blood Pond" where the remnants of the demon god are stored deep inside,
——She is actually the one that Bai Zhu mentioned.
A senior sister who left the sect because she did not agree with sacrificing one life in exchange for other lives.
But Jiang Li's adventurous behavior now is obviously very different from what Bai Zhu described her to be.
——She didn't approve of this life-for-life behavior at that time, but now she chooses to ignore the risk of being corroded by the demon's residue because she wants to make medicine with it.
Jiang Xi, who once claimed to be rational and unable to understand her master, has unknowingly embarked on the path she once rejected.
——Extend the lives of others at the cost of shortening your own life.
"."
"Crack."
In the dim cave, the crisp sound of burning wood came from the fire in front of me.
Jiang Xi, looking a little tired, was also a little worried about her husband and children at home.
——Because this hidden cave is very far away from the place where the "Chi" is sealed in the legend,
Gracilaria actually takes a lot of time to "collect herbs" each time, and has to stop and rest once in the middle.
Because of the Qianyan Army's previous enhanced patrols in the vicinity,
It had been a while since she had been able to come here to replenish the demon residue used to prepare medicine.
At this moment, she recalled the two benefactors who had helped her get rid of the treasure-stealing group, and she still felt grateful from the bottom of her heart.
——I don’t know where the nearby treasure-stealing group learned about the legend of Chi. They seem to want to take the “treasure” that suppresses Chi in the legend.
Therefore, after discovering this cave where she used to "collect herbs", she sent people to guard the area near the cave, fearing that someone else would seize their treasures.
If the white-haired woman had not eliminated the treasure-hunting group members who were on guard, it might still be difficult for her to find a chance to enter the cave.
"."
".However, even if it is guarded tightly, apart from the poisonous blood everywhere, where can we find any treasure?"
".I always have some ominous premonitions, but Jialiang's illness can't be delayed any longer. I hope nothing has changed in the future."
shook his head,
Jiang Li carefully prepared the powder that he could use to deal with emergencies and disrupt the sight of the treasure-stealing group.
He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, stood up and continued walking towards the depths of the cave which was so quiet and even a little eerie.
Meanwhile, outside the cave.
Ying and Paimon looked at the green crystals that kept flashing in their hands with an expression of disbelief:
——They didn’t expect that a random passerby they met on the road could actually help them find the mission location.
Thinking of the "Chi" that has reached the level of a demon god in the mission description,
After several previous experiences, Ying didn't think she could solve the problem smoothly.
They were also very worried about the Miss Jiang Xi they had met before:
——If something really happened inside, even if there was a possibility of solving it for her and Paimon,
But if something of this level leaks even a little bit of its power, it would probably bring devastating disaster to ordinary people around.
".Come on, Paimon, let's hurry up."
".I have a bad feeling. While you are looking for Miss Jiang Xi, you must also pay attention to your surroundings."
I briefly explained the precautions to the white-haired ball beside me.
Still not feeling reassured, Ying used her not-so-proficient rock elemental power to create two shields and put them on her body.
Only then did he feel a little relieved and stepped into the dark cave in front of him, which led to nowhere.
What they didn't notice was,
Not far from the cave,
Miss Shen He, who had just parted with them, felt the aura of the demon's remnants that she was so familiar with.
After them, he arrived at the front of the cave.
Looking at the well-hidden dark cave in front of me,
Shen He, who has now mastered many magical skills, recalled his experiences as a child.
A rare hint of emotion appeared on his face, which had been calm all along.
But in the end, she shook her head silently and stepped in without any hesitation.
The deepest part of the cave,
A group of treasure-stealing people who dream of getting rich and obtaining the treasures of the immortals.
Now, along with their dreams, they are perishing in front of the "treasure" they are looking for.
This dark figure, which had just awakened, successfully devoured all the food.
Feeling that the "prey" outside were approaching him in batches,
There was also a hint of greed and resentment in those scarlet eyes.
It's the end of the month, please give me some votes~
Chapter 268: The Resurrected Demon God and the Tired Ying
In the southwest corner of Qingce Village, in a dark and damp cave,
Jiang Xi, who had prepared a lot of self-defense powders on him, was groping forward cautiously.
Although from the previous situation, there is a high probability that there are other treasure-stealing groups here,
