Can't stop the medicine

Chapter 56 The price of growth

The heavy rain stopped, the hazy clouds became thinner, like the faint outline left by the diluted charcoal gray watercolor that was wiped off the painting paper before it dried up, the dark night was like a punctured fabric, and the dense starlight The eight Ren Xiaoyao who dared not use their wristbands to light up walked forward under the soft light of stars and moons.

The trees that have been beaten by the wind and rain have shed their diseased leaves, and the fresh and green leaves still hanging on the branches are amazing, and the fresh woody aroma permeates the air.

The humid air washed away the exhaustion of Ren Xiaoyao and the others, making them more green, like pure natural pollution-free high-grade vegetables that have been baptized and prepared to be planted.

The green light spots and red light spots flickering in the positioning are slowly but firmly shortened, and the people who have just escaped from the dead have no energy to celebrate and rejoice.

Maisui, who had always been unable to hide her words, suddenly stood still, the uppers of her shoes sank, and the dirty mud soup quickly covered her feet: "Mr. Chris, are you dead?"

"No." Qing Yue replied without turning her head.

"Lie! Deceive yourself!" Maisui, sniffling and trying to suppress his emotions, retorted hoarsely: "Yes! I don't know what the four-dimensional space you are talking about is, I don't know what channel, empress, I can't hear what you are talking about Understand."

"But I'm not a fool..."

"It exploded, and I can't get in touch. I still know."

"If mentor Chris is still alive, if he's still alive..."

Pressing her lips hard for a while, Maisui choked up and said, "He's not the kind of person who makes others worry about him. If he's okay, he will definitely find a way to contact everyone."

Chris is not only the head teacher of the Yinling class, he is also responsible for teaching the compulsory course "Spiritual Power" to eleven other classes.

Compared with other tutors who have a sense of distance and have little contact with students except in class, Chris, who is powerful but gentle, is especially popular with students.

Especially students with a tough personality like Maisui or a soft personality like Amy usually have a deeper feeling for Chris.

Because they are jealous and direct, Maisui and the others from an ordinary family will always get into trouble for no reason.After Chris learned about it, as long as he confirmed that the students had not made mistakes, he would take the trouble to stand up and uphold justice for them.

Correspondingly, when a soft student like Amy is bullied, Chris will not stand idly by.

Unlike most tutors who advocate survival of the fittest and freeing students, Chris is more willing to help students when they are weak and give all students a chance to grow as much as possible.

Staring down at the dry mud spots on the toes for a while, Qingyue turned around and looked at the wheat ears that were already crying: "He is not dead."

"Chris is a semi-four-dimensional creature, even if he enters a four-dimensional space, he may not necessarily die."

The implication of not necessarily dying is that there is a high probability of death.

Amy, with drooping mouth, twisted the corners of her clothes uneasily with her hands, her expression on her face was aggrieved like she was afraid of small animals.Quietly raising her hand, Amy sniffed and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

Although Zhu Yang and his four boys were not as emotionally exposed as Amy and Maisui, the boredom was clearly written on their faces.

Ren Xiaoyao closed his eyes, and said irritably, "You are all alone now, what's the use of crying and mourning?"

"Can you kill the Zerg? Or can you destroy the passage? If death is useful, why do you still practice martial arts?"

"Sit in a circle and work together to mourn, wouldn't it be enough?"

"If you really want to do something useful, then work hard to become stronger."

"Now you all know that the Twelve-Star Alliance is not indestructible and cannot completely protect us. Chris who is missing now, the next one may be Angus..."

"When the tall ones reaching the sky are not enough, sooner or later it will be our turn, as well as our friends and family..."

Before Ren Xiaoyao finished speaking, Maisui wiped off the messy tears on his face, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm done crying, let's go, and find the adventure team."

Ren Xiaoyao: "..." What a man!It is strong!

After a long journey, Maisui was as quiet as a hibernating animal, and there was no sadness on his face.If it weren't for the salt cream left by the dry tears on the honey-colored skin of wheat ears, Ren Xiaoyao even wondered if the girl who just choked up was not his hallucination.

Eight people walked on the mat of weeds with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Except for the calls of unknown animals in the surrounding forest from time to time, the chirping of insects in the tall wormwood, and the sound of the wind stroking the green leaves, the air was extremely quiet, as if hovering in the The water vapor in the air freezes.

A careless person like Ren Xiaoyao is not in the mood to joke, and other people who are more or less careless will not open their mouths.

"Let's eat something." Qingyue glanced at the time, broke the frozen atmosphere and stood still: "I haven't had a drop of water in twelve hours, so I'm not in a hurry at this moment. Eat something to restore your strength, and then rest for two weeks." Hour."

"Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, we won't even have the strength to escape."

As in many cases, we feel pain because we see blood, not because of injury.Everyone, who was always in a state of high tension, was reminded by Qingyue that they hadn't eaten for twelve hours before they felt so hungry that their chests stuck to their backs.

The exhilaration brought about by a large amount of adrenaline secreted by the body during the escape has passed, and the moment the hunger hits, the legs and feet have no strength.

At this time, no one has any objection to Qingyue's suggestion.

"Come and follow me to the creek to process the worm meat, and the rest of us will set up the tent." The worm meat Qingyue was talking about was naturally the meat of the ugly version of the praying mantis.

"I'm with you." Mai Sui said, and came directly to Qing Yue's side.

Seeing this, Amy raised her paw briefly and said in a low voice, "Then I'll come too."

Qingyue nodded and said: "Okay, the three of us will go to the river to dispose of the insect meat. You guys fix the tent, and Xiao Yue remembers to heat up the stove."

After seeing the insulated oven that Song Yi carried with him during the first monthly mission, at the strong request of Ren Xiaoyao, the two also bought one for emergencies.Compared with the cost of cultivation, the insulated oven is definitely a good product with high quality and low price.

Qingyue brought the only second girl in the team to the creek, and the three of them squatted in a row, took out the worm meat from the storage belt and began to scrub.

It was midnight when the night was dark, and it had just rained heavily, and the stream, which had been warmed by the sun during the day, was already cold.

But fortunately, for Qingyue's physique, this bit of chill is not unbearable.

The three of them kept silent, each of them immersed themselves in washing the worm meat and dividing it into easy-to-eat palm-sized pieces.

When soaking the processed meat slices in the stream water again, Maisui, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Mr. Chris...helped me a lot..."

As soon as the words came out, Maisui's eyes turned red again, and the teardrops trembled in the eye sockets, but stubbornly refused to fall.

After a short pause, Maisui, who had regained her composure, continued: "I have been stubborn, tough, and irritable since I was a child. No matter where I am, as long as there is something I don't like, I will definitely take care of it. Give my parents a lot of trouble." It was a lot of trouble. Later, my parents simply sent me to learn martial arts, wanting me to suffer and grind my temper. What they didn't expect was that my martial arts talent was not bad."

"Later, I was admitted to Somo University, and changed from a civilized troublemaker in the neighborhood to a top student in someone else's family."

"It's something to brag about being admitted to Somo University! I also floated very high. Maybe it's because I floated too high. I was taught a lesson not long after I started school."

"That night after dinner, I was walking in the woods southwest of the school. I happened to hear a girl calling for help. Her voice was extremely piercing. I... always like to meddle in other people's business, so I followed the instructions without hesitation I found it by the sound."

"It's a scumbag trying to rape a schoolgirl."

"After I turned on the video recording, I rescued the girl, kicked off the scum's roots, and then called the police."

"But guess what? Seven days later, my police application was dismissed for insufficient evidence."

"After going on for a long time, that scumbag is a collateral child of a certain big family. He just moved his lips, and the video record in my bracelet disappeared completely. Not only that, but he also accused me of deliberately hurting and slandering me, The witness is actually the girl I rescued."

Speaking of this, Maisui looked at the dark distance for a long time, wondering what she was thinking.But soon, she continued: "That was the most profound time I experienced how terrible the evil in human nature is. At that time, I swore that if I could survive this time, I would never meddle in other people's business again. I didn’t have that capital, and I lost my courage.”

"Then that scum came to me and told me that if I wanted him to withdraw the lawsuit, I had to sleep with him and be his dog. Otherwise he would not only sue me and send me to jail, but also make my parents and I go to jail together."

"The most frightening thing is that I know he has the ability to do this. He can even delete the records of the communication bracelet that binds my genetic information. It is too simple for him to frame me as an ordinary person's parents."

"He killed us, it's really as simple as crushing an ant."

"No one knows how desperate I was at the time. I thought about committing suicide. I wonder if my parents won't be hurt if I die? Maybe it's because I've met someone like me before?" Maisui laughed suddenly, mockingly Laughing: "That scumbag even thought of committing suicide...he said to me 'I promise you, your parents will die worse than you.'"

"His expression, tone, and movements when he said this, like a knife, are engraved in my heart one by one, and I will never forget it in my life."

"Later, it was Mentor Chris who helped me. I don't know how he learned about it, and I don't know how he did it."

"In short, since then, I have never seen that scumbag and the girl who bit me back at school again."

Raising his hand to wipe away the tears that slipped down his cheeks unconsciously, Mai Sui had an ethereal smile on his face: "After this incident, he came to me specially. He told me to always insist on everything that is right."

"Don't give up doing it because you have been hurt by helping others, face your own heart. Don't worry about the future, since I think it is what I want to do, I will do it. He said that as long as I am right, he will always Stand by me, support me and protect me."

"He believed I was going to be a good, good, good person..."

Licking dry and peeling lips, staring at the fluctuating water surface for a while, Maisui said softly: "Mr. Chris is more of a... a belief to me."

"It's my belief in martial arts, it's my belief in becoming stronger, it's my belief that there is light in this world."

"Darkness exists and is indelible, but there is always light that drives it away."

Putting the sliced ​​meat washed and soaked by the stream on the leaves beside him, Wheat sniffed: "My mother is right, there is a price to pay for growing up."

"The heavier the price, the faster it will make people grow up."

"From today on, I'm really an adult."
