7:15 P.M
On a bright starry night, the two people walked slowly, finally returning.
Wei Fan gently opened the door, the wooden door "creaked" open, and the two entered together.
Reaching the middle of the yard, Kha Vi stammered, then said softly: "I don't mean anything. But can you...can you tell me what happened before, okay? Really, I just want to know, want to get to know you better, as a...as a friend, okay?"
Wei Fan still didn't answer, strode straight to a collapsed stone pillar, located in the left corner of the yard.
In front of the ground is flat green grass, above from where is a square stone pillar. The stone pillar is nearly a meter long, seemingly weathered all the outside. Part of it is deeply rooted in the soil and part of it rests on the surface of the grass, looking like a chair without a long back, the same type of chair that often appears in the park.
It was fixed on the ground, I don't know how many years have passed, making people think that it was in this place from the beginning.
Wei Fan sat down low and looked up at the night sky again. His eyes sparkled with starlight again, seemingly showing a little sadness but also radiating hatred hidden deep inside.
Kha Vi saw this, immediately walked over, then gently sat next to Wei Fan only a short distance away. Perhaps now, just one person inching a little further, the two will be able to touch each other.
Kha Vi looks down at her own cold hands, and slowly intertwines them.
Such a quiet space, both of them just kept silent.
After letting the silence overwhelm him for a while, Wei Fan also opened up:
"It happened 5 years ago. Actually, he and Anna used to love each other in college. The two simply knew each other for a long time until they graduated from school and joined the same company... "
Wei Fan said this, Kha Vi immediately clenched her hands more tightly, a part of her felt uncomfortable.
"The two of us joined the same company, which, ironically, belongs to Kang's father."
Wei Fan sighed, then forced a smile and said, "Things are normal. I met Kang and considered him as a friend, and trusted him. But until the two sketches of the promotional project for the company, mine and Kang's are exactly the same..."
At this point, Wei Fan stopped, then clenched his hands, and slowly closed his eyes again.
He slowly told Kha Vi about all that forgettable past. How he was stabbed in the back by his own friend, how he was slandered, how he was seen as a thief and trash. But everything he can still endure, until he realizes that the person he loves the most is the one behind pulling the strings. Anna betrayed him.
"I didn't expect that it was Anna who was the mastermind of everything. They snuck behind my back, betrayed also because of glory and wealth, and because I was too stupid to..." Wei Fan explained, they can only blame themselves.
But until now, Kha Vi really understands why Wei Fan always has so much sadness, injustice and hatred in her eyes. And she realized that those eyes were even more hateful when Wei Fan faced two people, Kang and Anna.
But right now, there was some discomfort inside her.
After a while of silent thought, Kha Vi straightened up and stood up, after taking a deep breath, she used her hand forcefully, then slapped Wei Fan in the face with all her restraint.
"Idiot..." She looked him straight in the face, shouting.
Even though it was unharmed, that slap was enough to make Wei Fan dumbfounded.
He secretly realized why Kha Vi called him an i***t. Because he was stupid, he was deceived by people, he was really stupid, so he failed like that. Or perhaps some part of it, telling himself "you were wrong".
Kha Vi at this time, her eyes were pink, she bit her lip lightly, and loudly said: "Do you hate it? You think you hate it, then blame yourself, then turn yourself into a failure according to the will of others. Is that hate or do you just accept it to run away in a corner, just run away like a coward?"
"Those guys want to make you lose your name, want to kill you,... Then if you really hate them, you should live a better and happier life. You're such an i***t!"
After saying such words, Kha Vi lowered her head, didn't say another word, but quickly turned her back, then quickly left without looking back. Maybe she was in tears...
Actually, she really just wanted to comfort him, but she couldn't say it, because she was afraid of making Wei Fan think she pity her. She was sad for him but also resentful, just because he was so stupid in that thought.
8:00 P.M
The sky was somewhat quiet now, but Wei Fan was still sitting alone on the rock, still looking up at the sky and thinking quietly.
"I'm such an i***t!" He sighed involuntarily and spoke to himself.
It was also getting late at night, he was still sitting like that, quietly in silence.
"Thank you!" Wei Fan looked up at the night sky again and showed a gentle smile as if letting go of his troubles.
Although Kha Vi probably spoke harshly to him, he felt in his heart that the weak girl was acting strong to partly comfort him. That girl really cared about him, she just didn't know how to express it.
He's also really stupid like that girl said, stupid so he ran away, it's ridiculous to hate the life out there.
"I owe her a lot. Next time, thank you when we meet. Oh no, I should be the one apologizing."
***
Next morning.
At this moment, Wei Fan, sitting motionless in meditation on the roof alone, probably didn't get a good night's sleep last night.
Because of tossing and turning all night, Wei Fan decided to meditate, continuing to understand the fifth volume of the words of Earth Yuan Gong.
"Funny! Why is it so difficult? It was very simple before, but since reaching the fourth floor, it has become even more difficult to grasp. If it can't be done successfully, the matter of continuing to absorb the essence is stimulated. one more acupuncture point is impossible."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Fan opened his eyes and slowly stood up.
At the same time, the voice that came from inside the ruby necklace, which was also Shen Kai's voice, suddenly resounded:
"Of course it must be difficult! Earth Yuan Gong, on the one hand cultivates the flesh body and on the other hand makes up for the lack of principle. Because your physical body and original energy are still not harmonious enough, it is even harder to accept. But it's even harder to make it successful."
Earth Yuan Gong is a special practice, on the one hand, it focuses on cultivating the physical body to compensate for the lack of Yuan Qi, and on the other hand, it uses Yuan Qi to strengthen the physical body as a shortcut to stimulate acupuncture points on the body. These two things cannot be separated, they must go hand in hand and meet the requirements in order to practice this practice.
"So what do we do now?"
Shen Kai slowly replied, "You shouldn't be in such a hurry. Take it slow, mastering the body and a little understanding of the source force reaching balance is your priority right now. It must really be achieved. Perfection is good for you."
Wei Fan nodded even though he still didn't quite understand what Shen Kai meant. Thinking about it, he suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Ah yes. Last time you forced me to receive two bottles of ginseng medicine from Kha Vi, what was the point? Looks like you mentioned spiritual talent last time, right?"
"It's to nourish you, to make you healthier." Shen Kai said lightly.
Seeing Shen Kai say that, Wei Fan immediately felt suspicious and said:
"Hmm, that's not right! If it's just a supplement, you certainly won't be in a hurry to force me to accept it. Heh heh, I guess you'd better make it clear."
Although Wei Fan has only known Shen Kai for a short time, he knows this person quite well. Every time this guy answered superficially, it proved that he was hiding something behind.
"Ha! Bring it out here!" Shen Kai sighed, then spoke.
Hearing Shen Kai's words, Wei Fan immediately ran inside the house, hurried down to the kitchen to pick up two potions.
He took it out and held it in his hand, his eyes brooding for a moment, looking back and forth without taking his eyes off.
Seeing that Wei Fan still didn't recognize it, Shen Kai immediately said: "Actually, it's not completely, but in these two ginseng bottles, there is indeed some spiritual talent."
Hearing the word "spiritual talent", Wei Fan immediately widened his eyes in shock, put down two bottles of medicine, and quickly said:
“So you mean, I can use this to increase my cultivation?”
"Let me finish, are you born to jump into other people's mouths or something?" Shen Kai said annoyed.
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry to know. Well, you can keep talking." Wei Fan scratched his head and humbly said.
As for Shen Kai, he just sighed, then continued: "In these two ginseng bottles, rather, in its formula, the main ingredient is spirit talent."
Spiritual talent, which is a plant produced by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, contains spiritual power inside. There are many kinds of spiritual talent in this world that cannot be counted and carry different effects, which is also the primary thing that helps the cultivator to awaken the root cause. After a long period of history, spiritual talent was deeply studied by some religious people and combined to make medicinal pills. Cultivators who create pills to serve people are called alchemists.
Shen Kai emphasized again: "This medicine has a simple formula combined with spiritual talent. Do you know what that means?"
Wei Fan immediately shook his head.
"It means that in this world, there is a possibility that someone is using spiritual talent to create medicine, the main purpose is to treat it as a normal tonic to use..."
Shen Kai again said: "And from this problem, I dare to think that there are two possibilities behind. First, that person is a mortal who is only lucky to discover spiritual talent, only by chance, he has invented a kind of magic. This medicine, you can think of it as selling a medicinal pill. Second of all, that person is also an Immortal Cultivator like you."
At this point, Shen Kai stopped and turned to Wei Fan: "Wei Fan, I ask you. Your world lacks the qi, it's very difficult to cultivate, so if you discover spiritual talent or potion, What will you do first?"
"Of course, I wouldn't hesitate to use it right away, and then find out where there are more such things to use again."
As soon as the words fell, Wei Fan quickly realized something, he immediately said in a panic: "You mean that someone wants to use this d**g as a bait, to lure fairy cultivators like us. like that, this place really has other fairy cultivators. Heaven and earth!"
"I just hope that person is just an ordinary mortal. But if it's an Immortal Cultivator, I just hope he doesn't have bad intentions. You should be a little more careful in the future." Shen Kai did not refute, and spoke softly.
This world makes Shen Kai feel more and more complicated, it's really not as simple as he thinks.
"Um!" Wei Fan nodded slightly, then continued, "So what should we do now?"
"Of course, just use it at your leisure, don't worry about it later. The world is big anyway."
Seeing that Wei Fan was still dumbfounded and foolish, Shen Kai shouted again: "What's the point of being naive? This thing, if used by mortals, will really nourish the body. And if a monk uses it, It will help regulate blood qi so that it can be easily absorbed and compensate for some of the primordial qi. Strictly speaking, it will be very beneficial for you right now."
"Why are you so loud? I just want to understand the use better. It's dangerous not to understand and arbitrarily use things that are not authenticated. I don't dare try!" Wei Fan said softly.
In fact, Wei Fan admits that he is not very smart himself, but he is still not so stupid that people will listen to whatever they say. Anyway, he has a PhD. I'm dead, who will bear it?
