Do not die

After receiving this "critical blow", Zhu Qian retreated again, not having the slightest expectation for the spiritual wine brewed from monster meat.

Zhu Qian ducked away, and Meng Zhou spent five days refining and distilling the spiritual wine in all the wine tanks.

“The second stage wine steaming method is perfect”

The final mixing process took longer. It took a total of ten days to mix all the spirit wines into twelve thousand jars of spirit wines with different functions and qualities.

Each jar is packed with ten pounds.

What's special is that when mixing the spiritual wine brewed from monster meat, Meng Zhou also adds some spiritual herbs and elixirs.

The amount of spirit wine added to each jar was very small, but in Bai Zhi's eyes, with the addition of just a little bit of material, the weird smell of wine that filled the air changed instantly.

Not only was the strange smell completely offset, but a special aroma filled the air.

"Try it?" Meng Zhou asked Bai Zhi.

Bai Zhi thought of Zhu Qian's reaction before and subconsciously shook her head in rejection.

Meng Zhou did not continue to persuade, but sighed with regret.

Bai Zhi, who had already made up her mind not to drink this spiritual wine, suddenly felt that she should not do it, and seemed to think that she had not fulfilled some obligations.

So, she immediately took a ball of wine and drank it into her belly.

In an instant, his determined expression turned into surprise.

"It doesn't taste that bad after all!"

Although the taste is far less delicious than brewed with spiritual fruit, it is not unpalatable.

"How effective is it?" Meng Zhou was most concerned about this.

Bai Zhi carefully felt the effect of this spiritual wine dispersing in the body, and then slowly said:

“If you drink it in moderation before practicing, your practice efficiency will be significantly improved.

In addition, it has the effect of dispelling cold poison, eliminating physical fatigue, and quickly restoring physical strength. "

Meng Zhou nodded.

Dispelling cold poison is basically the innate characteristic of all spiritual wines, but some have more obvious characteristics, while others have worse performance.

Eliminating physical fatigue and quickly restoring physical strength are the innate characteristics of the spiritual wine brewed from monster meat.

Therefore, the real special function of this kind of spiritual wine should be to assist practice and increase the efficiency of practice.

After turning all the base wine into 12,000 jars of spiritual wine with different effects, the second-level wine-making method was also developed from scratch and cultivated to a perfect level.

“Second-level bartending is perfect”

And as the "wine brewing method", "wine steaming method" and "bartending method" have reached the second level of perfection.

The spiritual wine master profession, which was originally at the second level, has also been successfully promoted to the third level.

"Level 3 Spirit Wine Master 0/10,000"

The time has also come to the end of February.

Meng Zhou suspended all cultivation, entered the quiet room, and began his routine retreat.

…

The fifth day of March, afternoon.

The progress of cultivation is +300, and the fourth level of elixir formation is 3220/10,000;

Third level Spring Water Sutra +3000, master 51,000/120,000;

Black Turtle Bearing Monument True Skill +3000, Master 39,300/120,000.

…

On this day, after Meng Zhou finished practicing the Time Flowing Water Sword and furthered the accumulation of this swordsmanship in the realm of Dacheng, he and Bai Zhi sat leisurely in the waterside pavilion.

Meng Zhou was there thinking about how to use his free time in the future.

Now, he has limited materials at his disposal. Although he can continue to practice as a spiritual wine master at the third level, it cannot support him to go very far.

"How about finding another direction?"

While he was thinking about it, Bai Zhi was holding the teapot and pouring the tea soup into the teacup in front of Meng Zhou.

She picked up the tea cup in front of her, first put the cup filled with tea soup in front of her nose and sniffed it gently, and then drank it into her belly.

As the tea soup entered the abdomen along the throat, the wonderful spirituality centered on the abdomen and spread to the limbs and bones. An expression of enjoyment appeared on Bai Zhi's face and she sighed softly:

"As I drink it, I like spiritual tea more and more. I can drink spiritual wine occasionally.

As for the shortcomings, it should be that the taste changes are too simple.

It would be perfect if the spiritual tea you made could have such rich flavor changes like spiritual wine. "

Meng Zhou, who was thinking about it, was suddenly startled when he heard this, and then asked hurriedly: "What did you just say?"

Bai Zhi gave him a strange look, but still repeated what she just said.

"I said that the taste of the spiritual tea you made is too simple, and it is far from as rich and varied as the spiritual wine you made.

Before really seeing it, I don’t think anyone would have thought that you could use a hundred jars of spiritual wine to prepare more than 10,000 spiritual wines with different effects and unique tastes, right? "

Listening to Bai Zhi's words, Meng Zhou's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Yes, yes, such a simple idea, why didn't I think of it?"

Before meeting, the man's face suddenly beamed with joy, and Bai Zhi was a little confused.

Suddenly, she felt a lightness in her body, and her light body was hugged tightly by a pair of hands.

Then, his forehead became moist.

While Bai Zhi was still in a daze, Meng Zhou's figure had disappeared and returned to the cave.

After standing blankly in the waterside pavilion for a long time, Bai Zhi reached out and touched her forehead gently.

…

From the beginning, Meng Zhou studied the profession of spiritual wine master. His real purpose was not to be a spiritual wine master himself, but because of the high correlation between it and the spiritual baker.

He had a feeling that as long as he went further and traced back to the origins of these two professions, he could discover a new composite profession.

Just like the alchemy master is to the alchemist and the weapon refiner, the talisman master is to the talisman maker and formation master, the spirit master is to the beast master and the puppet master.

But after Bai Zhi's unintentional reminder, Meng Zhou suddenly realized that his thoughts were still affected by the existing path.

"Yes, since there were ancient sages who were able to create a unique profession like spiritual wine master with spiritual wine as the core.

So why doesn’t spiritual tea work? "

“Spiritual bakers mainly target monster meat and other edible spiritual materials, presenting them in the form of food.

Strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, cure hidden diseases, and help practice...

Integrate various functions that are beneficial to the human body into the most simple and natural eating activities. "

"The materials used by the Spirit Wine Master are basically the same as those of the Spirit Cuisine Master, and the effects they exert are basically similar to those of the Spirit Cuisine Master.

However, perhaps due to the difference in inheritance, the spiritual chef inheritance I got from the Professionals Association is relatively ordinary, while the third-level spiritual wine master inheritance I got from Qiao Yu is very comprehensive.

This creates the illusion that spiritual wine masters are superior to spiritual bakers.

But ultimately, there is no superiority or inferiority between these two paths. "

“Although the external appearance is different, in essence, there is not much difference.

They are all 'taming' natural and wild spirituality to achieve the purpose of being used by practitioners. "

"Since spiritual meals are okay and spiritual wine is okay, then why not spiritual tea?"

“In fact, spiritual tea is inherently more functional than spiritual wine.

In the ordinary sense, spiritual wine is mostly used to add excitement and also has the effect of relieving mental and physical fatigue.

Those high-quality, spiritual wines also have the effect of increasing the efficiency of practice.

However, compared to the spiritual wines I made, their functionality is not as strong, their directionality is not so clear, and they appear more vague. "

“And spiritual tea, because of its different varieties, has many wonderful effects, and the effect is better than spiritual wine.

Many qi-training monks regard spiritual tea and spiritual rice as important cultivation resources. "

"Perhaps it is precisely because spiritual tea already has such a clear functionality that it hinders the birth of a 'spiritual tea master' similar to a spiritual wine master."

For a time, all kinds of complicated thoughts emerged in Meng Zhou's heart.

Because he is very familiar with the making of spiritual tea, he has reached the level of mastering it at his fingertips.

As the idea became clear, a new career outline that did not exist originally began to gradually take shape in Meng Zhou's mind.

“If a spiritual tea master wants to be as independent as a spiritual wine master, he must first get rid of his over-reliance on various mature spiritual tea trees.

Not to mention that everything can be used to make tea, but the range of materials must be at least on par with those of spiritual bakers and spiritual winemakers. "

For other monks, this may be an extremely difficult hurdle to overcome.

But for Meng Zhou, this was too simple.

Through the reshaping of the framework of the three professions of alchemist, weapon refiner, and spiritual wine master, Meng Zhou has gained an extremely profound understanding of the spirituality of various spiritual materials.

As my thoughts opened up, each "answer" emerged in my mind almost without thinking.

“Usually spiritual tea is mostly made from the tenderest bud tips of the spiritual tea tree, followed by some flowers that are about to bloom.

But are these the only ingredients for making tea?

of course not!

Can’t all kinds of spiritual fruits be used as tea-making materials?

Not only spiritual fruits, but also various spiritual herbs and elixirs, as well as root bark, spiritual insect bones, and even monster meat, can all be made according to the idea of ​​making tea.

And according to their own spiritual differences, and with appropriate guidance, they present different functions. "

“Actually, it’s not just spiritual tea.

As long as you grasp the essential core of it, you can do whatever you want in which form it is presented.

It’s not just in the form of food, wine, and tea. Is incense allowed?

Can soy sauce and vinegar be used?

Can I use Thirteen Spice Seasoning? "

“Perhaps, different presentation forms will have different limitations, and some effects cannot be expressed well.

But this does not hinder the feasibility of this idea. "

From then on, Meng Zhou seemed to have found a new toy. In his free time other than practicing the "Time Sword", he no longer made other arrangements, but immersed himself in the understanding and perfection of this idea. .

The practice of Time Flowing Water Sword continues every day, and the level of Dacheng Realm continues to accumulate at a rate of 2,500 experience points per day.

On March 17, the Time Flowing Water Sword completed the accumulation of Dacheng Realm and advanced to the master level.

"Master of Time and Water Sword 0/160,000"

With this breakthrough, the attack "distance" of swordsmanship expanded from within eight years to within sixteen years.

The attack "range" of swordsmanship extends from a radius of 80 meters to a radius of 160 meters.

…

In the calm and fulfilling daily life, April and May passed quietly.

In June, two "little things" happened in my peaceful daily life.

In mid-June, the two Xuanling Turtles will completely and completely develop the bloodline power they inherited from their biological father.

Standing at the limit of the second level, you can attract calamity clouds at any time and start the transformation to the third level.

And in late June, to be more precise, it should be June 29th.

After several months of practice, the Time Flowing Water Sword finally completed the accumulation of the master realm and advanced to the grandmaster realm.

"Grandmaster of Time and Water Sword 0/320,000"

The attack "distance" of swordsmanship has been increased from within sixteen years to within thirty-two years.

The attack "range" has been increased from a radius of 160 meters to a radius of 320 meters.

The "forward swing" preparation that was originally like a light and shadow show has become more and more restrained. If you don't observe carefully, you won't be able to detect any special moves on his part.

…

As the Xuanling Turtle's strength reaches the second-level limit, it can break through and improve at any time, and the planned trip to the evil veins can also be put on the agenda.

However, for now, all priorities are to achieve the breakthrough of "Time Flowing Water Sword" to perfection.

All other plans must be put on hold.

…

September 30, during the exchange meeting.

Meng Zhou attended the Dan Dan celebration held by a new Jie Dan named Fu Qiang.

This time, the celebration, which was attended by a large number of qi-training and foundation-building monks, was still very lively, but Meng Zhou could clearly feel that with the increase in the number of new pill-forming pills, in the circle of fake pills and pill-forming pills, that kind of superficial appearance The family-like atmosphere is slowly fading.

Only two Danjie representatives from Cuiyu Lake came over, and only the fake Dan from Qingxuan Sect who was in charge of Sanchuan Plain attended.

On the other hand, all of Mikawahara's pill formations were still present, but from start to finish, the time was much shorter than the previous two times.

The total time Meng Zhou and others got together because of this matter was only about five hours, and they were increasingly leaning towards a ceremonial process.

Meng Zhou thought that the Sanchuan Plains would be calm again after this celebration, but only half a month later, Meng Zhou attended the meeting of the Sanchuan Plains City Lord's Mansion for the second time as the representative of the Blue Blood Army.

There are many meetings in the Sanchuanyuan City Lord's Mansion. After all, the entire Sanchuanyuan City affairs are now decided by the City Lord's Mansion.

However, normally, Meng Zhou would not be present, but Yao Gu would be the representative of the Blue Blood Army.

He was present once when the city defense array was deployed and the old city was rebuilt.

The reason why I attended this time is that this meeting was jointly nominated and initiated by three Danjie monks: Liang Rui, Deng Gang, and Fu Qiang. The issues to be discussed involve the re-formulation of some core rules of Sanchuan Yuan. .

In the venue, the atmosphere was more serious than last time, and the seating arrangements were more particular.

There are five people sitting in the top row. From left to right, they are False Dan of Qingxuan Sect, President Pan of Sanchuan Society, "Song Yang", the representative of the Professionals Association, Meng Zhou, who is the representative of the Blue Blood Army, and Cuiyuhu. Cao Lie, the representative of the City Lord's Mansion.

Slightly below the five of them, three people from left to right are Liang Rui, Deng Gang and Fu Qiang who successfully formed elixirs in Sanchuan Plain after Meng Zhou and "settled down" in Sanchuan Plateau.

At the bottom, there are a group of small shareholders with only fake alchemy monks as the front.

However, compared to the first time, there were two fewer people.

This is not for any other reason, simply because the representatives of these two families have now become Liang Rui and Fu Qiang, who have broken out of the original quagmire and reached new heights.

What makes Meng Zhou interesting is that the few people sitting at the top hardly made any speeches or expressed any opinions from the beginning to the end of the meeting. Their existence was like just bystanders standing on the shore. and witnesses.

The specific content of this meeting was aimed at an "omission" during the reconstruction of the new city.

At that time, in view of the limited scope of spiritual land in the core inner city area, the meeting stipulated that the area of ​​all new caves should not exceed two acres.

After all, the entire spiritual land of Sanchuan Plain is only ten miles in radius.

Such a small area is not big even in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of a kind of alchemy monk, it can be called very small.

If there are no restrictions, such a small amount of third-level spiritual land will be divided up quickly.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with this provision itself.

The problem is that this regulation only covers the caves that existed after that meeting and does not cover caves that existed before that meeting.

Before that, not only did Meng Zhou, Cao Lie, Song Yang and others have caves in Sanchuan City at that time, but other fake elixirs built third-level caves elsewhere outside the city, but they also had other courtyards in Sanchuan City at that time. within.

As the third-level spiritual land of Mikawa Plain was concentrated around the former old city area, all other buildings were demolished and moved to the four outer cities in the southeast, northwest and northwest.

However, the other courtyards of these fake elixir monks took the opportunity to upgrade into third-level caves. The area is basically the same as Mengzhou's cave, between five and six acres.

At the time, these changes were a matter of course.

I don't think there's anything wrong with this either.

But now, with the birth of Liang Rui, Deng Gang, and Fu Qiang, the three new Jiedan, and they all live in a cave with only two acres of land, the situation has gradually become more delicate.

This time, the three simply held the meeting jointly.

The content of the meeting was not to overturn the regulations on the cave area limit at that time, but to ask for another patch to be made on this basis.

I won’t go into details. In short, the ultimate goal is one, they want to live in a larger cave.

Those fake elixirs that were at the bottom of their strength and cultivation levels were "selected" to go to the two-acre cave house.

According to the logic of the spiritual world, the demands of the three people are completely reasonable.

Even if some fake elixirs feel that they cannot get off the stage, they still recognize this set of rules.

The treatment for those who practice elixir formation should be higher than those who practice fake elixirs. It’s unacceptable if you don’t accept it.

This is no hindrance to Meng Zhou and others.

Whether it was Qingxuanzong's fake elixir or President Pan's fake elixir, everyone naturally excluded these two fake elixirs from the target group this time.

Therefore, after Liang Rui and three others negotiated with a group of fake elixir minority shareholders on the cumbersome patching details and future cave rotation rules, the meeting came to an end.

It is conceivable that as new alchemy pills are born in the future, all the fake alchemy monks who are still living in the "big" cave will be gradually squeezed into the small cave.

After the meeting, Meng Zhou returned to his cave.

I'm still thinking about this in my mind.

Of course, what he was thinking about was not the matter itself, but some of the circumstances behind it.

The core area of ​​the inner city of Sanchuan Yuan, which only covers a radius of ten miles, is the essence of the thousands of miles of spiritual veins in Sanchuan Yuan.

If we regard it as a resource pool, these fake alchemy formations are the fish that survive and compete for food in this pool.

The resources in this resource pool have their upper limit.

If the limit is not reached until all the fish are full, then everything is fine.

But if the upper limit is reached before all the fish are fed, then some fish will definitely be hungry.

And those who are hungry first must be those with the lowest efficiency in competing for food.

The efficiency of competing for food is determined by two factors. One is the strength of the fish itself (i.e., the cultivation strength), and the other is the size of the mouth (i.e., the area of ​​the cave).

The reason why Liang Rui, Deng Gang, and Fu Qiang jointly initiated this meeting was not for some false reputation, but because they truly felt that the cultivation efficiency in the Two Acres Cave Mansion was lower than that in the Big Cave Mansion.

And this in turn leads to another fact, that is, everyone has touched the upper limit of what the third-level spiritual land of Sanchuan Plain can bear.

The increment has been exhausted, so they have to compete with each other, "the weak and the strong".

This day came much earlier than everyone expected.

According to the experience of Cuiyu Lake, as well as the judgment of the Qingxuan Sect Array Master who arranged the upgrade of Sanchuan Yuan's spiritual veins and the layout of the city defense formation, the entire problem will not arise until the number of Sanchuan Yuan's pill-forming people reaches more than a dozen.

But the real situation is that only six of them have touched the ceiling by practicing alchemy.

And Meng Zhou knew that the actual number of elixirs was even less, because "Song Yang" only occupied one quota, and "he" actually consumed less third-level spiritual energy than a fake elixir.

Other monks, including the formation master of Qingxuan Sect, did not find it too strange that the actual situation was lower than expected.

——It would be really wonderful if everything went as expected.

The real situation is far more complicated than expected and full of too many unknown variables.

The reasons that others did not delve into became the focus of Meng Zhou's attention.

Vaguely, Meng Zhou had realized that perhaps, he was the biggest "variable".

His rapid improvement in strength far beyond normal pill formation did not come out of thin air, and was inevitably accompanied by the consumption of massive amounts of spiritual energy.

In the eyes of others, the six Dan-Jie practitioners in Sanchuan Yuan, including him, were all newcomers with first- and second-level Dan Jie cultivation levels.

But the actual situation is that he is now in the middle stage of pill formation.

Moreover, the spiritual energy resources he absorbed in one practice far exceeded that of other mid-level pill-forming monks.

"Perhaps, more than half of the resources in this limited resource pool have been swallowed up by me."

"That's why it hit the ceiling so quickly."

Although, this is still an unconfirmed possibility.

But even if it was just a possibility, Meng Zhou could not tolerate not taking it seriously.

"If this is true, then as my cultivation goes further and reaches the fifth or sixth level of alchemy formation, this small Sanchuan Plain Spiritual Land will no longer be able to meet my cultivation needs. "

"This is just a guess...If you have the chance, you must verify it."

Suppressing this thought, Meng Zhou continued to practice the "Time Flowing Water Sword".

On November 27th, after nearly half a year of practice, the Time Flowing Water Sword finally completed the accumulation of the master level and advanced to perfection.

A steady stream of experiences and insights poured into my heart.

The attack "distance" of this swordsmanship has been increased from within thirty-two years to within sixty-four years.

The attack "range" also covers a radius of 640 meters.

The sound of casting spells is also reduced to a minimum.

No changes could be seen before and after, everything seemed to happen silently.

He can even use Five Elements Escape to activate this sword technique without showing his body shape.

No fireworks at all.

As Meng Zhou digested and absorbed all the experiences and insights gained after perfecting this swordsmanship, wonderful changes took place here.

In the Soul Pond of the Sea of ​​Consciousness, sparkling lights appeared that seemed both illusory and real.

If you look carefully, it's not a wave of light, but a sword light.

The reason why it gives people an illusion that seems both illusory and real is that this light image is a projection from the past.

Waves of past shadows of sword light were punctured by waves of new shadows of sword light, turning into bubbles.

A wave rises and a wave dies.

New waves are born and old waves perish.

New waves become old waves, and new waves are born again.

Never ending.

Meng Zhou was also amazed when he saw such a strange true shape.

Soon, this strange true form disappeared, and just like the "Unbounded Sword Domain" that had been cultivated to perfection, it merged into the three-way body.

Among them, the one who benefited the most was the "Qinglian Sword Body".

Before this, the integrity of the Qinglian Sword Body was "74%", but after the integration of this swordsmanship, the integrity of the Qinglian Sword Body reached "99%", which is only one step away from complete perfection. .

Like the Unbounded Sword Domain, it brings a quarter, or 25%, completion to the Qinglian Sword Body.

With this improvement, Meng Zhou clearly felt that his understanding of the way of swordsmanship had greatly improved.

And all of this is concentrated on the small magical power of "Unbounded Sword Domain".

Both in terms of breadth and depth, the power has been strengthened in all aspects.

Secondly, the one who benefits second only to the Qinglian Sword Body is the "Five Elements and All-Seeing Body".

The completeness of the five elements and all phenomena has been increased from the previous "78%" to "88%", which has brought about a ten-point improvement in completeness.

With this change, Meng Zhou clearly felt that his understanding of the power of the two elements of light and darkness, which was originally much inferior to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, had experienced a qualitative improvement.

And all of this is concentrated on the strengthening of the two small magical powers of "Wanxiang Method" and "Five Elements Escape" in the two fields of light and darkness.

The one who benefits the least is the transparent Taoist body.

Its completeness has increased from the previous "48%" to the current "53%", bringing a five-point improvement in completeness.

Although its improvement among the three bodies is the smallest, a new minor magical power related to it has been added to the "Supernatural Power" category.

[Transparent Dao Heart]

As Meng Zhou understood it carefully, he also understood what this so-called "transparent Taoist heart" is.

As mentioned before, as the transparent Tao body became more and more complete, Meng Zhou gradually developed a keen intuition in his heart, that is, he could make judgments about an unknown, new direction and path.

Based on the chips he has now, he can judge whether a path "works" or "doesn't work."

This "clear Taoist mind" not only gave him stronger deductive and logical reasoning abilities, but also further clarified and strengthened this intuition.

He can make more accurate judgments. If it "makes sense", he can also see the most critical nodes that cannot be ignored.

If he were to comprehend the "Time Flowing Water Sword" now, with his "Transparent Dao Heart", he would be able to find out the key cores of this swordsmanship immediately, and create this swordsmanship at a faster speed. come out.

Since then, Meng Zhou has possessed six minor magical powers.

Every Tao body has two doors.

…

Transparent Tao body: transparent moon mirror, transparent Tao heart;

Five elements and all phenomena: Five elements escape, all phenomena;

Qinglian Sword Body: Qinglian Sword Marrow, Unbounded Sword Domain.

…

The newly added minor magical powers are related to the transparent Tao body, but the minor magical powers of the other two Tao bodies have also been significantly enhanced with this improvement in completeness.

Among them, the one that has changed the most is Unbounded Sword Domain.

The new version of Unbounded Sword Domain not only contains all the abilities of the old version of Unbounded Sword Domain, but has been further enhanced, and also includes the ability of the "Time Flowing Water Sword".

"This truly achieves the ability to attack both the horizontal and vertical axes at the same time."

——Here, the horizontal axis is a space line, and the vertical axis can be understood as a time line or a causal line, but it only scratches the surface.

…

Late at night, Meng Zhou put Angelica dahurica into the sea of ​​consciousness.

He quietly escaped from the Sanchuan Plain, using the lightless spaceship, and soon arrived near the Jade Lake.

Escaping all the way to Baiyue Bay, arriving at the end of the bay, where the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone is now squatting, there was no disturbance at all.

In Meng Zhou's induction, time here quickly went back in time.

All kinds of spiritual plants in the spiritual medicine garden are growing rapidly.

Soon, time returned to thirteen or fourteen years ago.

The elixir garden has also turned into two messy streets.

"It's now."

At a certain moment, Meng Zhou slowed down.

In his field of vision, he saw a familiar figure in the old scene that had changed from the elixir garden to two streets.

That's himself too.

However, that was more than ten years ago, when I was fifty-one years old and in the early stages of Qi training. I couldn't hide my down and out look.

Meng Zhou was very clear about his trajectory in Baiyue Bay, so he easily sorted out all the lines related to him.

However, before the official action, Meng Zhou once again followed the entire trajectory of his entry and exit. After making it completely clear, Meng Zhou started taking action.

He turned back the time in his vision to the day he left Baiyue Bay. Just as his figure left Baiyue Bay and entered the water, a small sword that seemed real and illusory, with intertwined light and dark, stabbed the man who was about to rush out. Baiyuewan's own forehead and eyebrows.

Stab it lightly.

This stab was like lighting the fuse of a long firecracker.

Not only did the "marks of Meng Zhou" who received the sword and was about to step into the water to leave Baiyue Bay shattered and dissipated, but the traces of the figure that was about to approach the waterside a moment before him also shattered immediately.

Then, this broken trace spread all the way to Baiyue Bay, staying on the once raised stone wall for a long time.

That's because he stayed here and made rubbings of "Hundred Knots".

After lingering in the raised stone wall area for a while, the broken bubble returned to the two vertical and horizontal streets.

The traces of buying rubbing paper and ink by oneself, the traces of catching an aborigine asking for news, the traces of finding the death of Yaya and Granny Bai in Granny Bai’s grocery store, the traces of listening to the news in the teahouse, the traces of being in the inn, and the traces of Traces of contact between Yaya and Granny Bai...

All the traces of himself on Baiyue Bay are strung together on a line.

The fragmentation started from the end of this line until his figure first appeared in Baiyue Bay. All traces of himself on this island disappeared completely.

Meng Zhou used time to look back again, and found that he was no longer around in the time period when he should have existed.

Meng Zhou was relieved in his heart, but he quickly frowned.

"There is still a problem..."

When he is alone or walking alone, there is no flaw, but once he interacts with other people, the situation will appear very strange.

For example, when I first landed on the island, I met Yaya who was sitting by the protruding stone wall, knitting grasshoppers. I not only watched her knitting grasshoppers, but also asked her about the direction. She deliberately pointed me in the wrong direction. .

During this period of time, all traces of himself were gone, but Yaya's behavior was still retained.

Originally she was interacting with herself, but now she was communicating with an invisible being.

As long as you interact with other people, you will have this weird phenomenon.

When he was staying in a hotel, his communication with the store owner had now become a one-man show where he talked to himself, like a psycho.

Another example is when I was in contact with Grandma Bai, and when I was in a teahouse.

Even when I walk casually down the street, the eyes of passers-by will clearly show, "There used to be people here."

Therefore, what I am doing now can only erase my own traces, making it impossible for people to connect the things here with myself.

But if someone goes back to this time again, this strange scene will give people a feeling of being hidden.

The best way is actually to "ps" and edit and modify.

Get a person who lives on the island to occupy the strange vacancy caused by himself, and everything will be normal.

It's a pity that Meng Zhou doesn't have this ability now.

However, Meng Zhou did not feel helpless.

He had already anticipated such a situation, and his method of handling it was very simple.

A crude method is to completely erase the "old scenery" of this area so that there is no way to trace it back.

A more subtle method is to drag more people into the "old scene".

"But, before that..."

Meng Zhou was in no hurry to make a choice.

He set his sights on the location of Granny Bai's grocery store.

In addition to erasing his own traces, Meng Zhou has more questions on this island.

Time went back and Meng Zhou slowly debugged.

"This is the moment."

In the field of vision, the time for Granny Bai's grocery store has come to night.

…

That evening, Yaya returned to Granny Bai's grocery store with a bag of spiritual stones in her pocket.

As soon as she entered the house, Yaya was startled and received a severe reprimand from Granny Bai.

Because Yaya disobeyed her order and secretly traded the "Water Nourishing and Moisturizing Technique", a Qi refining method that can be practiced to the point of foundation building, to "Uncle" Meng Zhou.

Granny Bai was originally going to severely reprimand and punish Yaya.

But Yaya remembered "Uncle" Meng Zhou's reminder and warned Granny Bai, "We are in danger now!"

Because the mother-in-law and grandson have become fat in the eyes of other neighbors, unspeakable things may happen anytime and anywhere.

Granny Bai thought she had the advanced level of Qi training, which was enough to protect the safety of her mother-in-law and grandson in a small place like Baiyue Bay, but she forgot the most important point.

When others bully you, it's because you look easy to bully. It doesn't matter whether you hide your strength or not.

Although the late stage of Qi training is stronger than the monks in the early and middle stages of Qi training, it has not reached the level of crushing at all, let alone the ability to defeat all the monks in the entire street.

Granny Bai and Yaya, who seem to be the easiest to bully, will definitely be bullied.

And once this starts, it can't be stopped.

After Granny Bai thought about this thoroughly, her heart felt cold.

She finally realized the dangerous situation of her mother-in-law and grandson in Baiyue Bay.

So, she had the idea of ​​taking Yaya to leave Baiyue Bay overnight.

At this moment, Meng Zhou was watching with high concentration. He knew that the change was likely to happen in the next moment.

Because at this moment, Granny Bai and Yaya were standing exactly at the same place where they threw themselves to death.

But at the next moment, Meng Zhou's pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes seemed to freeze.

Just when Granny Bai accepted Yaya's warning and said that we would leave Baiyue Bay tonight, and even stay away from Cuiyu Lake.

Granny Bai's expression suddenly changed strangely.

For a moment, she seemed to suddenly understand something.

She looked down at her dry, wrinkled hands, as if she was getting to know herself and this body for the first time.

Then, she slowly raised her head and looked at the yellow-haired girl in front of her, Yaya, with a complicated expression.

"Yaya..." Granny Bai said.

"Mother-in-law?" Yaya looked at her suspiciously.

"Yaya, do you know our true identities?" Granny Bai asked.

Yaya looked confused: "What is your identity?"

Granny Bai murmured:

“I am like the dust in the house, the dirt between heaven and earth, which should have been cleaned up and disappeared long ago.

And you shouldn’t exist either…”

"Mother-in-law, what are you talking about?" Yaya was confused for a while.

Granny Bai, who originally wanted to take Yaya to escape from Baiyue Bay, suddenly became confused.

At this moment, Granny Bai stretched out her finger and touched Yaya's eyebrows.

"Ah." Yaya exclaimed.

Then, he fell to the ground silently.

His eyes were wide open, and the once bright and lively look in his eyes instantly became dead and dull.

Maybe you still have doubts.

Because until the moment of her death, she didn't know why her mother-in-law was suddenly so inexplicable.

Granny Bai, who originally wanted to "awaken" Yaya and let her understand her true identity, seemed to have been shocked by something terrible.

Almost in no particular order with Yaya, he fell to the ground and died.

Unlike Yaya, whose eyes were confused and confused, there was still a trace of fear that had just arisen in her eyes.

His eyes were wide open and his mouth was slightly open, as if he had seen something incredible.

If she could live one more moment, Meng Zhou might be able to tell more information from the change in her expression, but all of this was frozen in the moment when the change occurred.

Because she died so quickly, all the secrets were buried in her heart.

Meng Zhou had no way of knowing what he saw when she pointed at Yaya's forehead.

However, from her and Yaya's death itself, Meng Zhou had some guesses in his mind.

"Does she, including Yaya, have one or more locks in her heart?"

“Or maybe it’s not a lock, but a seal, some kind of special protection mechanism.

Once her behavior triggers certain conditions and unlocks a certain lock, is it equivalent to unlocking the barrier of self-protection? "

"Or is it some kind of curse that requires certain conditions to be triggered?"

"And the triggering condition is when one awakens to certain fundamental issues?" (End of Chapter)
