Wu Gen was sitting alone at the entrance of the mountain col. Feng'er had already left. After some intrigues just now, Feng'er finally revealed her purpose of going to Dayizhou. Like Wu Gen, it was all for the Taichu Stone.
Feng'er used to be in charge of the Tiandao Sect and had dealt with the garrison disciples for many years, so he naturally knew a lot about adverse qi. It can be seen from the Yin Yang Pendant that Tiandaomen's understanding of adverse qi is no weaker than that of Yiguo.
The position of leader of the Tiandao Sect was passed down to her by Qiu Jin. A woman can control so many mortals, cultivators, and strangers in her hands. Even Qiu Jin, the former sect leader, would rather die to protect her. How can she be treated as an ordinary person?
How could such a thoughtful person not want to keep such powerful power in his pocket? Driven by huge ambition, Feng'er grew up small and mixed into Wu Gen's team.
As for Feng'er's true cultivation level, Wu Gen believed that she was not lying. Her deliberate performance along the way made Wu Gen already doubt her strength.
How can such a person really want to be used by himself? Sooner or later, he will cause trouble. But Wu Gen didn't have a clear idea of how to deal with it, so he could only listen to other people's thoughts.
At midnight, Qi He arrived on time, just like his style.
Wu Gen was much more affectionate towards Qi He.
Qi He was born in a humble background and was tempered by hardships. No matter when, he would not be arrogant, discouraged, compare, or indulge. If there is a true gentleman in the world, he should be the closest.
Wu Gen thought that it was difficult for him to be so original and sincere, but that didn't stop him from respecting such a person. That's why he was so hesitant in dealing with Feng'er.
He reached out and patted his side, signaling Qihe to sit down.
Qi He first saluted Wu Gen and then sat down, "Wu Gen, I just learned about Feng'er." After a pause, he said bluntly: "If you have any concerns about Feng'er, I will tell you. Take her away. If I can tolerate her, I will restrain her and I will not embarrass you."
Wu Gen was startled, he didn't expect Qi He to be so direct. You all value love and justice, but you seem to be a bit of a villain. It's not okay to drive him away, and it's not okay to stay, so there's nothing I can do.
After thinking about it, Wu Gen wanted to put his arm around Qi He's shoulder and say a few words of sympathy, but the other party's body remained motionless, so he had no choice but to pat his shoulder and take his hand back.
"Qi He, we are all men, so let's just say it bluntly. Feng'er, as you can see, is not a light-saving lamp. We don't talk nonsense about brothers and sisters, and women are like clothes. But as a man, you It’s better to control your wife well.
A good wife brings few misfortunes to her husband. Your daughter-in-law has probably been carefree since she was a child. She is very ambitious. I don’t know if your small body can hold her down. Otherwise, let's let her copy some articles from sages every day to stabilize her temper. "
Wu Gen remembered that when he was in Shenwu Academy, he wrote moral articles every day, and thought he could borrow it.
Qi He naturally knew what Wu Gen meant. He opened his mouth several times before speaking, but his momentum was weaker than before, "Feng'er hasn't said she wants to marry me yet, but I will definitely try to persuade her on weekdays. We won’t let her cause trouble as much as she wants, but she’ll be exempted from copying articles.”
Wu Gen nodded and glanced at Qi He sympathetically, "When it comes to husband and wife, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind. Brother, you can't be a coward. You must establish good family rules from the beginning. Otherwise, after getting married, you will be useless and won’t even dare to go out for a drink.”
Listening to Wu Gen going further and further, Qi He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. With such nonsense, Wu Gen already agreed with Feng'er to continue to stay. He felt grateful and could only say calmly, "It won't happen, it won't happen."
"What's wrong? You are a kind-hearted person. If brothers don't mention something, Feng'er might have you in her hands without even knowing it. Don't you think, she actually dared to come out to find me secretly tonight and put you under No matter where you are, I still have you in my eyes. From now on, you will have full control over everything that involves Feng'er, okay?" Wu Gen looked like his own family members were angry and would not argue with him, and he followed the lead.
At this time, Qi He's remaining pride was gone, and he could only nod his head. Besides, he was already a good person in everyone's eyes. I originally thought about formally negotiating with Wu Gen, but after a few words, I realized that he was born in a bandit village and had seen many Wu Gen opponents with short-lived parents.
Now that the words were in place, Wu Gen wandered back to rest, leaving only Qi He alone in the wind.
Wu Gen had no choice but to let Qi He take full responsibility for Feng'er's affairs. It was difficult. If any team encountered such a thorn in the side, something unpleasant would inevitably happen if they faced each other head-on. It's better to find someone who can restrain them. There is a layer of separation in the middle, which will also filter out a lot of conflicts.
Wu Gen was somewhat complacent. His cultivation level had not improved, but it seemed that his ability to control people was becoming more and more successful.
On the second day, the team climbed over the mountain and continued moving forward. On the way, you will occasionally see dandelion-like light groups hidden in the stone forest. It seems that this mountain should be a gathering place for chaos. No wonder there are no living creatures to be seen.
The six people moved forward openly, and when they encountered Chaos who dared to block the way, they protected Wu Gen among them, and Feng'er greeted them with a fireworks display.
The further they went, the more worrying Wu Gen's situation became. The belly has completely drooped, and the bulging belly is wrapped in thin spider web-like veins, which seem to burst if poked.
My head has been feeling dizzy all day long, as if there is a summer cicada that keeps making noises at the side without stopping for a moment. Wu Gen knew that the consequences of Chaos possession were coming.
One day, Wu Gen was walking when he fell to the ground with a plop and fell unconscious. Everyone was so frightened that they quickly stopped to rest. When Wu Gen woke up faintly, he could no longer remember everything just now.
Going further down, Wu Gen could only move forward by sitting on the back of the holly bird. He was already unconscious, talking to himself from time to time, and sometimes showing a scary smile.
Shui Congyue and others were all a little worried. Although Wu Gen rarely listened to what Wu Gen said on weekdays, this team really couldn't survive without him.
Once he falls, the team will disperse for no reason. This is not alarmist. After the five people escaped from the Ming clan last time, when they faced Rong Xi, there was obviously more noise in the team.
During this period of time, Qihe also beat Feng'er more frequently. He was not allowed to say weird words or lose his temper at will. Seeing the usually arrogant Feng'er looking like a wronged daughter-in-law, Baoxiang's heart was filled with joy. Sure enough, one thing fell after another. Feng'er was so unruly, and only a square person like Qi He could suppress him.
Leaving the swamp, a line of black faintly appeared on the horizon ahead. It was a mountain that stretched for an unknown number of miles. The mountains are a mixture of green and black. Looking further up, the peaks are covered with a layer of white, as if they are ice and snow that has not melted for many years.
Looking at Wu Gen, who was sleeping soundly on the back of the holly bird, everyone was a little worried about whether he could withstand such a severe cold with a body like his.
As soon as the team stopped, Wu Gen woke up from his sleep and asked the reason for stopping.
"Would you like to change the direction and avoid the mountains in the distance?" Shui Congyue sat next to Wu Gen with a worried look on his face.
After looking at a few people, Wu Gen shook his head, "It's better to continue heading south. We can't stop. Two years is not a long time or a short time. We still have to hurry up and hurry up."
In fact, Wu Gen didn't tell anyone in detail why he kept going south. When he was in the Ming Clan and connected with the consciousness of the statue of a woman with a long tail, Wu Gen accidentally obtained a piece of information, that is, there are many supernatural beings in the extreme south of the Great Relic Continent, and even the owner of the consciousness was quite interested in that place. fear.
As for what kind of miraculous power, how can a divine soul mark carry so much information? Without a clear direction, the only choice is to go south to find the elusive Taichu Stone.
Baoxiang was a little worried and handed Wu Gen the last pot of yellow soup spring water, "Can you handle it? If you suddenly go into labor while mountain climbing and the weather is freezing, even if you survive, how can my eldest nephew endure it?" "
"Ahem..." Wu Gen choked and coughed. This precious elephant was always explaining that dogs couldn't spit out ivory.
Now that they had decided to move forward, everyone did not ask any more questions and protected Wu Gen as he hurried towards the distant mountains.
The further we walked, the more desolate we saw. There were no patches of vegetation, only some small trees that were not too tall, stubbornly rooted in the cracks in the rocks.
When they reached the bottom of the mountain, everyone looked up. Even though they had seen many dangerous mountains and rivers, they couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
The mountains are very high, standing like tiger teeth, and stand out in the wilderness. As you go up, the vegetation becomes sparser and there are many blue rocks.
The stone is exposed.
Since climbing, Wu Gen wakes up less and less often, his face is pale, and his body twitches from time to time. Even so, except for Feng'er occasionally complaining a few words, no one felt disgusted.
On the contrary, along the way, the best food was given to Wu Gen first, and the best accommodation at night was reserved for him. The so-called brother means that when you are in danger, you will never leave and silently protect you from the wind and rain.
It’s just that everyone knows in their hearts that Wu Gen is possessed by Chaos. If he can’t solve it well, he may never be able to return to Zhao Kingdom. There are still ways to control Chaos in the Great Relic Continent. If it were to escape to other continents, wouldn't it be another catastrophe in the world?
As a brother, just accompany him through the years when he was still a "human". As for what he will become in the future, as long as he does not harm the human world, he still has to save his life. ..
The higher we climbed, the colder it became. Huge mountains overlap one another, and the snow-capped mountains are majestic, white-capped, and chilly to the bone.
Walking in the mountains, the snowflakes are flying, covering the sky and the earth. The wind chased the snow and circled rapidly, howling shrilly, like the roar of thousands of giant beasts.
The six people trudged upwards step by step, and the footprints behind them were soon covered by flying snow. The hot air condensed on their bodies, forming a layer of ice, as if they were wearing a piece of armor.
At night, everyone rested in a leeward place. At midnight, the wind gradually stopped, the surroundings were quiet and clean, and a bright moon appeared in the sky.
In the tent, Wu Gen suddenly woke up and struggled to get up. Baoxiang, who was napping nearby, suddenly woke up and was inexplicably surprised. "Wu Gen, you finally woke up. You don't know, I have been scared to death these days. I was afraid that you would not wake up as soon as you fell asleep." The circles under his eyes turned red.
"Everyone doesn't say it with their mouths, but they have made up their minds in their hearts. If you don't wake up again or turn into some kind of monster, you are not going to go forward. We are going to go back the way we came. Let's go back to Zhao. Let's go home. Fuck Taichu Stone."
Looking at Baoxiang's haggard face, Wu Gen grinned and said, "Call everyone over here. I have something to explain."
Baoxiang hugged Wu Gen and cried loudly, "No, it's not time to leave any last words. Don't worry, no matter what you become, I will protect you. Even if you become a monster, I will accompany you." If you stay in the Great Relic Continent, even if we go ten years or a hundred years, we will always find a way to eliminate the chaos."
Wu Gen was moved in his heart, his face turned red from being strangled by Baoxiang's iron arm, and he had no choice but to pat his shoulder hard, "I don't know if I will turn into a monster, but if I don't let go, I'm afraid I'm going to die here on the spot."
"Oh." Baoxiang belatedly let go of his hand. He originally wanted to tell some jokes, but when he saw Wu Gen's blushing face, he felt sad and covered his face before leaving the tent.
After a while, Shui Congyue and others hurriedly came to the tent and crowded the small tent tightly.
The atmosphere in the tent was solemn, with sadness hidden on everyone's face.
