The pinnacle of fantasy and technology

【three】

At dusk, Shen Ge opened his eyes.

His complexion has improved a lot, at least he doesn't seem to be vomiting blood any more.

I waved at him, "Can I borrow some fire?"

There is no light in this cave, and if there is no candlelight, both of us will be blinded.

Shen Ge nodded, raised his hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

"Crack—"

The sound of snapping fingers echoed in the empty cave, but after a long time, my eyes were still dim.

I:"…………"

Shen Ge: "...?"

He tried snapping his fingers a few more times, and finally recited the formula, but unfortunately it still didn't help.

I coughed: "That..."

In the dim twilight, I saw that Shen Ge seemed to be making an action to summon Zhu Xian.But Zhu Xian also seemed to have lost his mana, and it also lay there peacefully, without any reaction, no different from a piece of scrap iron.

Only then did a bit of panic flash across Shen Ge's face, and he drew a few more random tricks, but unfortunately they all fell to nothing, and there was no response at all.

He actually lost his mana.

Terrific, this demon is much more capable than Shen Ge himself.

He doesn't know now that he can only recover in the year of the monkey, so I have no hope of climbing to the top of the mountain by relying on him.

In the end it was up to me.

In the silence, I fumbled out a few pieces of flint and polished them in the afterglow. After tossing for a long time, I managed to light the candle.

And Shen Ge seemed to be hit by the loss of mana, and was in a state of emptiness during my actions, staring blankly at the candle, not knowing what he was thinking.

Oops, boy.

What are you afraid of when your mana is gone?Young master, am I not living well now?

It's a big deal to hang out with my grandfather in the future.

I coughed and looked at him: "...are you okay now?"

"..."

... Shen Ge answered him whether he was good or bad with his pale face under the candlelight.

"Uh..." I said with deliberation, "Actually, it's nothing, the left and right are just demons, and it will be fine after a period of cultivation..."

Even though your inner demon is a little against the sky.

Shen Ge didn't answer, just stared at the candle flame, wondering if he heard what I said.

I made myself feel bored, knowing that Shen Ge was upset now, so I ignored him, paved the ground with hay from the hole, and fell asleep on the spot.

A night without dreams.

When I woke up the next morning, I was startled by Shen Ge who was opposite me.

He seemed to have not slept all night, his eyes were covered with a thick layer of shadows, and his eyes were terribly red.

He used the tricks over and over again to attack the spiritual power in his body, but failed again and again, so he had to continue to try persistently.

I sighed and stopped disturbing him. I walked to the entrance of the cave by myself and looked at the situation of the cave.

It is only a hundred feet away from the bottom of the cliff. If there is no miasma, you can find a way to go down and slowly find the exit below.

pity…………

I had no choice but to go back into the hole again, count the things in the treasure chest, and figure out how to get up.

But at this time, Shen Ge, who had been sitting there silently, suddenly spoke.With a low voice, he said in a low voice: "At that time, your spiritual power was lingering... how did it feel?

That's a really good question.

I bowed my head for a while, then said, "What do you think?"

Everyone said that the three sons of the Liu family were extremely talented and had boundless scenery. In the future, they would surely rise all the way and climb to the top of the sky early.

But at that time, I felt like a huge boulder was pressing on my back every day. They pressed me so hard that I didn't even have time to take a nap. I was so busy and exhausted every day that I was trembling.

Therefore, when I knew that there was no possibility of my spiritual power recovering, I quietly breathed a sigh of relief from my heart, and felt a little lucky that I would no longer be mediocre all day long.

Shen Ge didn't move, he shrank in the shadows, and suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, "It's better to live than to die."

Without spiritual power, Zhu Xian can only be a piece of scrap iron. Where should the all-powerful power of the past go without spiritual power?

I sneered, and said: "Everyone in the world pursues longevity and bliss all their lives, but how many people actually become immortals? But the Dao is fifty, the sky is fourty-nine—most people are only struggling in the world of mortals, I haven't even touched the hair of Tiandao, so what are you asking for?"

"Glory is nothing more than a name."

After hearing this, Shen Ge coughed, and spit out a bright red from his throat, "...Even if it is what you said, will this world change?"

"The morals of the world remain the same...but since the left and right are only seeking wealth, why don't I seek it in a way that is easier for me?"

Shen Ge sneered, and stopped speaking, as if he felt that what I said was a fairy tale, and Xia Chong was beyond words.

I ignored him, and continued on my own: "You should also know that the Liu family is a master of cultivating immortals. In the past, a promising junior suddenly lost the qualification to practice, and they will never die."

"Therefore, you should also understand——I have a slight chance to recover this spiritual power."

Shen Ge shook his head strenuously: "Differences are different, don't conspire with each other, don't talk about it."

After finishing speaking, he leaned against the stone wall with his back to the sky, gasped lowly, and simply didn't even look at me.

Tsk, so stubborn.

I shook my head, turned around to fiddle with the treasure chest, and gave up the idea of ​​talking to him.

People in the world often say that there is no time in the mountains. In my opinion, there is no time in this cave.

Both Chen Ge and I have lost our spiritual power, so naturally we can't sense the time, and the time in the cave is hard to pass, so we suddenly feel like the days are like years.

Shen Ge woke up and fell asleep, fell asleep and woke up again, and finally closed his eyes half-closed, not knowing whether he was asleep or awake.

I looked up at the top of the cave, and felt that my whole life had become gloomy.

"Shen Ge." I called listlessly.

"……Ok?"

"... What year were you born?"

"..."

"Hey, just say it and you won't fly."

To be honest, I am really curious about Shen Ge's age.He seems to have been living in people's word of mouth. When I was a child, I grew up listening to all kinds of deeds of his bereavement.

Shen Ge was silent for a while, and said: "... Ruihe for eight years."

"what?"

I didn't react.

"Ruihe eight years!" Shen Ge seemed a little annoyed.

………………

Shock!This psycho is actually only 20 years older than me!

So why do you have so many demons in your short life? !

So why can you do so many things that can stop children's night crying at the age of 20? !

Are you sure it's not the author's character setting who forced nonsense for the plot? !

It's unbelievable at all!

Shen Ge frowned, "What's your expression?"

Me: "...it's nothing."

Maybe he is so talented that he can split boulders with his bare hands as soon as he is born.

Shen Ge glared at me, and simply went to meditate again.

I laughed a few times, and changed the subject forcibly: "After adjusting breath for so long, do you feel better?"

Shen Ge listened attentively and replied: "...It's much better than before, but I have to wait a few more hours to go out."

I was refreshed when I heard the words, and immediately my eyes lit up and I said: "...then you are so good at adjusting your breath! I won't bother you anymore!

Sitting under the cave wall, Shen Ge slightly curled the corners of his mouth when he heard my words, indicating that I should be as quiet as a chicken in the last few hours and not disturb his cultivation.

I moved back tactfully, and raised my hand to promise that I would never be a hindrance to Shen Ge's recovery.

... an hour later.

I sat on a moss-covered stone in the cave, with a blank face, and my eyes swept every plant and tree in the cave aimlessly, as if a hand was tirelessly plucking a guqin in my heart, It made me want to jump up and sing aloud, the sea and the laughter, the tides on both sides of the strait.

... Another hour later.

My hands began to pick the moss on the stone unconsciously.

Qingmoss has lived here for several years, but unexpectedly, a catastrophe will strike, causing her family to be ruined, her children and grandchildren to die, and her life to die. It really makes people feel sad and cry when they see it.

……… Three hours later.

Everything is silent here, and thousands of mountains and birds fly away.

………… Four hours later.

I stood up from the rock and walked up to Shen Ge.

"cough…………"

I coughed dryly.

Shen Ge's eyes were tightly closed, and his usually arrogant face showed a calmness when the master had no time to take care of it, it was so soft that he didn't look like him.

... I looked away guiltily, and then shouted with a heavy voice: "———Shen Ge!"

! ! ! !

Shen Ge's whole body shook suddenly, and the thin barrier around his body burst instantly.He opened his eyes, panic and confusion flashed across his eyes, and he fell into my arms almost before he had time to react.

"……………?!"

I caught him instinctively, and then folded my hands instinctively to force him into a pillow position in my arms. Finally, I subconsciously pulled out a coquettish and suave smile. The words almost burst out.

Shen Ge: "..."

His face was clouded instantly, he gritted his teeth and broke free from my arms, and said word by word: "...Is this fun? Willow, burning, light,?"

I:"…………"

No no no I'm not me without you listen to me explain

I hastily pulled a smile out: "...Senior Shen, will you listen to my explanation?"

"Senior?" Shen Ge forced a sneer in his expression of approaching the city: "Are you very young?!"

I:"…………"

Me: "...I didn't mean that..."

"enough!!!"

Some blue veins popped out on Shen Ge's forehead at some point, he leaned close to my body, and roared at me: "Do you know that I can recover most of my skills after waiting another hour! Do you know that you are now An interruption made me have to start all over again!! Are you too busy to panic?!"

"..."

I looked at Shen Ge's face that was close at hand, and for some reason, I nodded in obsession: "Yes, I'm too busy to panic."

It stands to reason that if I suddenly interrupt Shen Ge in this situation, it will only make him temporarily withdraw from the state of cultivation, and it will not let him waste all his previous efforts and start over from scratch.But since this situation has occurred, the only reasonable explanation is——————————————————————————————” Chen Ge was too timid, he was shocked by me.

Shen Ge: "..."

Shen Ge: "...you - say - what - what?!"

He stared at me for a while, then pulled out an indifferent smile, raised his hand and called Zhu Xian over: "Aren't you in a hurry to be idle? Come—my Zhu Xian sword is six feet long, and has drunk the blood of hundreds of people , there are countless old songs of wronged souls on your body, why don't you just..."

Shen Ge suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking.

Shen Ge: "..."

Me: "...huh?"

He lowered his head, Zhu Xian's devilish energy surged, apparently he had regained the prestige of beheading the immortals in the past, and now he was meekly bending over his hands, with traces of devilish energy constantly bubbling into the palm of his hand.

Gods and Buddhas of the heavens, Shen Ge unexpectedly exploded with incredible potential at that moment, and suddenly broke through a barrier that could not be broken through for several hours.

This is really......

Me: "...a blessing in disguise, how can you know it's a blessing, Chen Ge..."

So can we put Zhu Xian down first?

Shen Ge glanced at me coldly, snorted softly, and took Zhu Xian back the sheath heavily.

"If there is a next time, I won't let you go easily like now."
