Chapter 67 Taking the Needle (2)
Ling Che asked: "Do you need my help?" Bailiying
said: "I will set up a formation. I, Shi Ning, and Xuanwu will be in the formation. What you have to do is not to let anyone destroy the formation. Law."
Ling Che said, "It's enough for me to stay here. Don't let others break in. If anything happens, I'll call you two over."
Jin Ye said uneasily. He and Jingli are outside. If you need anything, we'll come right away."
Jingli's eyes stayed on Shi Ning, and he didn't look back until Jin Ye reminded him to leave.
Shi Ning, Xuanwu, and Baili Ying formed an equilateral triangle formation, with each person occupying a corner of the formation. Since Xuanwu was unconscious at the moment, Ning would step into Xuanwu's sea of consciousness when necessary.
Xuanwu's cultivation level is much higher than Shi Ning's. Although he is unconscious at the moment, the sea of consciousness is not a place that Shi Ning can easily enter. At this moment, Bailiying pressed Xuanwu's soul-fixing needle, Xuanwu's consciousness was diverted, and Shi Ning took the opportunity to enter.
Each monk's sea of consciousness is different, like his own unique little world. After Shi Ning stepped into the Xuanwu Sea of Consciousness, he was suddenly dragged away by a force. When Shi Ning opened her eyes again, she found that the surroundings were pitch black, like an airtight wall wrapping her inside.
Shi Ning felt panicked, was this Xuanwu's sea of consciousness, or what was going on. Just when she was about to push open the thick wall in front of her, she suddenly heard the voices of several people talking from outside the wall.
The girl's silver bell-like voice said excitedly: "Brother, look, this egg is moving!"
Then Shi Ning heard a steady baritone say: "Guyin, don't touch the eggshell, let it go." The spirit beast broke out of its shell on its own."
Before Sang Ning could react, he heard a familiar voice, but compared to now, this voice was much younger and still had the vigor of a young man, and he said unconvincingly: "You know the best."
The calm baritone voice said with a hint of helplessness and doting: "Xiao Che."
It was Elder Ling Che, and the remaining two people were grandfather and grandmother. Shi Ning was lying on the "wall", shocked as to what was going on. Maybe it was because Shi Ning's weight was pressing on the "wall". For a moment, there was a clicking sound in his ears, and the wall seemed to fall down.
The dazzling light shone on Shi Ning, and he saw the three people in front of him gathered in a circle and looking at him seriously.
The girl's appearance was somewhat similar to Shi Ning's, but her eyebrows were softer. She was looking at Shi Ning with a smile. This must be my grandmother, Jiang Guanyin. There were two men on either side of the grandfather. One was slightly older, with straight features and an upright look on his face, and he looked very down-to-earth and reliable. On the other side was Elder Ling Che, who looked almost the same as he does now, but with a little more youthful vigor.
The two people next to Elder Ling Che seemed to be his grandmother Jiang Luanyin and his grandfather Shi Mian. But these three people were all young. When Shi Ning was wondering what was going on, he lowered his head and suddenly saw a small green claw with webs between the five thumbs. Isn't this a turtle claw?
Jiang Luoyin said: "He is so cute, what should we name him?"
Ling Che said disgustedly: "What name does a turtle want?"
Shi Mian said: "It all depends on junior sister."
Jiang Luoyin thought for a moment and said: " They are all turtles, so let’s call him Xuanwu. I hope he is as powerful as the ancient spiritual beast Xuanwu. "Senior brother, what do you think?"
Shi Mian said with a smile, "Junior sisters are all good at getting names,"
Ling Che said proudly. : "Whatever, you can call an ugly turtle whatever you want."
Shi Ning listened to the three people's conversation and realized that he had returned to when Xuanwu was born hundreds of years ago. Could this be the person in Xuanwu's sea of consciousness? memory.
At the same time, Shi Ning noticed that the body was crawling towards Ling Che, and touched Ling Che's shoes with its pointed head.
Jiang Luoyin bent down and said happily: "Senior Brother, you see Xuanwu is very close to you."
Ling Che looked at Xuanwu with drooped eyelids, a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he still pretended to be cold, "Look He's not too stupid, he knows who his master is."
Shi Mian said worriedly: "But Xuanwu is so small, how can we feed him?"
When Ling Che mentioned Xuanwu, Shi Ning felt that the whole turtle was spinning. Hearing Ling Che's arrogant voice, "You don't have to worry about this, I will take care of my own spiritual beasts." After saying that, he took Xuanwu away and left.
When Shi Ning opened his eyes again, the scene in front of him had completely changed. Ling Che held a spoon that was bigger than Xuanwu's head and put it to Xuanwu's mouth, "Eat quickly, yes, just eat it like this."
Shi Ning watched helplessly as Xuanwu drank it one after another, not knowing what it was made of. Tang Shui, while listening to Ling Che talking beside him. Save the turtle’s life, this tastes too bad!
Shi Ning's consciousness is attached to Xuanwu's memory, and he will also feel Xuanwu's five senses. Shi Ning felt that he had never eaten anything so unpleasant in his life. It was not easy for Xuanwu to survive for hundreds of years under Ling Che's hands.
Not only that, but I also heard all kinds of complaints from Ling Che. I didn't expect that Elder Ling Che, who was usually cold and silent, would talk so tightly hundreds of years ago.
"I raise my spirit beasts myself. I don't need them to worry about it, right, Xuanwu."
"Let the two of them fall in love. Let's live together."
It was obvious that the two of them Ling Che was talking about were Jiang Luanyin and Shi Mian.
"Eat more Xuanwu. This is the nourishing soup I made myself. It's the first time you've ever tasted a turtle." Ling Che said smugly.
Shi Ning: Thank you.
Just when Shi Ning was suffering from the torture of taste, there was a sound outside.
"Ling Che, come out quickly. We have to meet with Xuan Zhen Dao Ancestor today. Don't be late."
Hearing the urging voices from outside, Ling Che finally put down the spoon in his hand, picked up Xuan Wu and walked outside.
Shi Ning silently thanked this voice in her heart for saving her from suffering anymore.
Xuanwu was carried in Ling Che's arms and walked out. Shi Ning could only see where Xuanwu looked, and there was only a piece of green clothes in front of him. The person opposite said: "Ling Che, is this your spiritual beast?"
"That's right."
"It's so cute. Isn't it called Xuanwu?"
"What's so cute? It's just a smelly turtle." Ling Che said Even though he said this, his tone was raised and he was very proud.
The person opposite said enviously: "I wish I had a spiritual beast of my own."
Ling Che was sullen, "Kong Zhi, I'm not saying this. You can't force this, it depends on fate."
Shi Ning originally said Still staring at the green clothes in a daze, he suddenly became energetic when he heard the word "Kong Zhi".
Master!
Shi Ning's memory does not yet have the appearance of his master. Now he is anxious to see what his master looks like, but Xuanwu can't see anything as he is held in Ling Che's arms.
Just when Ning was disappointed, he heard Kong Zhi's gentle voice asking: "Can I hug Xuanwu?"
Ling Che hesitated for a while, but still said: "Here you go."
But he quickly added: "Be careful. Ah!"
Kong Zhi said softly, "I will."
Shi Ning felt that his vision had changed. In front of him was a moon-white gown. His gaze kept rising until he saw a gentle face with relaxed eyebrows and delicate features. He looked at himself with a smile, as if the spring breeze in March was blowing by. .
Master. Shi Ning silently called out to Master, but no one could hear him.
Before Shi Ning could take a good look at his master, Xuanwu was snatched away by Ling Che.
"What's so good about a turtle?"
Kong Zhi looked nervous at Ling Che, but pretended to be disgusted with it on his face. He didn't expose it and just said, "Are you going to take Xuanwu with you to meet Dao Ancestor?"
"Can't you? Xuanwu can be considered a member of the sect. Now that Chengtianmen has its first meeting, Xuanwu will of course go."
"Besides, the elders didn't say that spirit beasts are not allowed to go."
Kong Zhi didn't say Ling Che choked. Angry at the person's tone, he just reminded: "Then you should keep an eye on Xuanwu and don't let him run around. It will be bad if you make Daozu angry."
"Don't worry, I know, you don't need to be nagging."
Compared to hundreds of years ago, The Ling Che of later years, the Ling Che of today has simply brought out the tsundere to the extreme.
The two moved very fast, and soon they didn't know where they went. Shi Ning only knew that there were many people nearby. Xuanwu was held tightly in Ling Che's arms and could not see anything clearly. Xuanwu even fell asleep in Ling Che's arms in the end.
When he woke up again, the scene in front of him had changed again. Xuanwu followed Ling Che, beside him were Shi Mian and Jiang Luanyin, and in front of him was an injured woman with injuries all over her body.
Ling Che advised: "Junior sister, this person is too seriously injured, and there is really no way to recover. Besides, she is a stranger to us, so it is really not worth the effort. If we really want to save this person, we may have to go Please help Daozu."
Jiang Luyin said firmly: "This person obviously still has a pulse, but she is not dead. It is fate that she met her. If I can save her, why not save her? , It should be a blessing for the child in my belly."
Xuanwu's eyes came online at this time, and Shi Ning found that her grandmother had a big belly, and it should be her father, Shi Ci. This feeling was too wonderful for Shi Ning. Go back hundreds of years and see people you have never met through Xuanwu's perspective.
Shi Mian, who had been silent all the time, said: "Guanyin, it's inconvenient for you to be pregnant. Tell me what you want to do, and I'll help treat her. As for Daozu, you don't have to worry. Daozu has been out of confinement in the past few days. Now that I have some free time, I will send a message to Daozu and ask him to come forward and help us treat this girl."
"Thank you, husband." Jiang Luyin and Shi Mian held hands tightly, and they both looked at each other. I have seen my own existence in the world, and no matter what choice I make, there will be one person who will firmly support me.
As Xuanwu's eyes gradually moved downward, Shi Ning saw clearly the appearance of the unconscious man in front of him, Elder Mu Yue.
The author has something to say:
Actually, I felt a little sad when I wrote this chapter today. If those changes hadn't happened, Shi Ning's grandparents, parents, and master would have grown up with her, and the family would have been happy. Shi Ning will not be taken away by the soul of another world and live hard for so many years in another world. Instead, he will grow up day by day in the company of his relatives. But now I can only see these relatives through Xuanwu's eyes. And the brothers, sisters, and friends that Ling Che once said he disliked also left him. The arrogant and lively young man turned into a taciturn and aloof elder.
There is also the point about the reincarnation of cause and effect. Before Mu Yue was seriously injured, Jiang Juanyin insisted on saving her, "Since it can be saved, why not save it."
Hundreds of years later, when Mu Yue heard this sentence from Shi Ning again, How would it feel? Although the old friend is no longer here, his sincere and warm heart will always exist.
Moreover, hundreds of years ago, Mu Yue was seriously injured and asked Jing Li for help, and Jing Li casually saved Shi Mian who was attacked by an evil spirit.
Maybe it was just a convenient move for Jing Li at that time, but how could he have thought that hundreds of years later, Shi Mian's granddaughter Shi Ning would save him during his thunderstorm, and the person who went to treat him was the one he treated at that time. Where is Mu Yue.
