The wind speed on the mountain slowed down slightly, and Qingchen carried the mountain bike to the top of Okuho Takadake under the shocked eyes of the little girl.
It was only then that Jinguji Maki finally knew why Qingchen was clearing the ridge.
"Onii-chan, do you want to ride a mountain bike on the ridge?" the little girl was curious.
"Well, it's time to start training," Qingchen nodded: "The wind is light today, so you can wait for me on the top of the mountain first."
The challenge cannot be completed in one go.
The successful challenge in the icy dark waters of Greenland was preceded by hundreds of trainings to conquer the world with virtue. This time he had nothing but immature skills and courage.
As he spoke, he rode his mountain bike and dived down from the highest point.
Jinguji Maki was wearing a red coat and standing on the snow-capped mountains. She wanted to stop Qingchen, but in the end she didn't speak.
The little girl was in a daze. She didn't know why, but when she looked at the figure speeding down on the blade, she suddenly felt extremely harmonious.
She covered her mouth, fearing that she would make any noise that would distract Qingchen.
The mountain bike bumped along the ridge, the sound of wheels crushing stones and the sound of Qingchen's own breathing intertwined together.
Only when he actually started training on this ridge did Qingchen realize how difficult this life-and-death test was.
There are abyss on both sides of your eyes, and there is still a road in front of you.
There is only one path in your life.
Only by walking there can you live a more exciting life.
Qingchen accelerated like crazy and calculated in his mind how long it would take for him to reach the 120 kilometers per hour ridge downhill standard.
At this moment, he realized that he still needed to be a little crazier.
120 kilometers per hour, even if you are driving a car on the highway, this speed is enough to make many people tremble.
What's more, there is an abyss beneath this ridge?
The next moment, the wheel of the mountain bike deviated extremely fatally because of poor control.
Qingchen and his mountain bike fell off the ridge and fell into the abyss.
Jinguji Maki let out a shrill scream from the top of the mountain and ran down the ridge regardless, even though she herself was in danger of falling off the cliff.
But before she could run too far, she suddenly saw a hand stretching out from the ridge in front of her, firmly grasping the edge of the ridge.
Qingchen gritted his teeth, holding on to the mountain bike that almost fell into the cliff with his other hand, and jumped back to the ridge with only one arm.
However, it was easy at this time only because he did not use the reverse breathing technique and his speed was not fast enough.
If it were a real challenge, this fall would probably lead to death.
He looked at Jinguji Maki and frowned: "Who told you to come down? From now on, you are not allowed to go to the ridge alone without me accompanying you. You must wait for me on the top platform."
Jinguji Maki was a little at a loss: "Okay..."
Qingchen thought for a while: "Continue to clean up the ridge."
"profound……"
The young man stood on the edge of the ridge and looked into the distance. This life and death situation was more difficult than imagined.
The little girl looked at Qingchen's palm, where a gash had been carved out by the rocks. She finally couldn't help but ask, "Onii-chan, what on earth are you doing?"
Qingchen replied calmly: "Feel life and death."
"ah?"
"Watch carefully what I do. You might want to take this path in the future."
"What way?"
"Of all the shortcuts in the world, it is the farthest."
Qingchen still hasn't decided whether to let the little girl become a knight.
But at a certain moment, he suddenly felt like his original master, looking at his young self.
He accepted Li Ke as his disciple because Li Ke really had the tenacity and talent, and his master also required him to choose a knight successor from the Li family.
Hu Xiaoniu, on the other hand, relied on the favorable time and place in the world, so that even if he could not pass the examination, he could still follow the path of a knight.
Jinguji Maki is different, she is too young, and Qingchen doesn't know if she can bear the pain of the knight's journey.
…
…
At night, Qingchen, who was covered in injuries, took the tired little girl back to the ski resort.
The tourist service center has lost its bustle during the day.
Qingchen's cell phone lit up.
Monopoly: "Are you still a human being? For such a cute and innocent little girl, you asked someone to follow you through the ice and snow for two days to pick up rocks. Is this something a normal person can do?!"
Qingchen raised his eyebrows and typed a reply: "Let's get down to business."
Monopoly: "...Many time walkers from the Mysterious Division have come to Osaka City. Adding up to the previous ones, there are 431 people in total. They have already caught two other potential time walkers who escaped, so the Mysterious Division also knows that you are here for
It’s only the little girl who took action.”
Qingchen thought about it, he appeared here as a stranger, and even if the other party knew that he was responsible, they would not be able to confirm his true identity.
Monopoly: "But what's interesting is that the Mysterious Business Department didn't find you in Shirakawa Township, so they thought you might have fled to other cities. They didn't expect you to run to the snowy mountains, so they didn't think about it for the time being. After all,
In this season when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, only a mentally ill person would take a nine-year-old girl and run into the mountains."
Monopoly: "So, they only left a few dozen people to prepare to go into the mountains to search, while the rest went to Nakatsugawa City."
Qingchen nodded, this was good news: "Have they been to the ski resort?"
"We came to search and found nothing. They are waiting for the headquarters to transport professional mountaineering equipment from Osaka City. It will probably arrive in just one day."
Qingchen: "Okay, thank you."
Monopoly: "Please be nice to the little girl!"
Qingchen turned off his cell phone.
He was a little surprised that Omo Sekai One actually liked Jinguji Maki so much.
He even had some doubts as to whether Yi knew something about the little girl's special identity, as if he had been noticed as soon as he arrived at Prison No. 18.
The visitor center is dark and silent.
At this time, the only thing left in the tent next door was Jinguji Maki's aggrieved sobs. She tried her best to suppress it, but in such a quiet environment, it was still very abrupt.
"Does it hurt?" Qingchen asked, lying on his back in the tent with his pillow on his arm.
This was already the second day since he took Jinguji Maki into the mountains. The little girl's already tender palms had blisters on all five fingertips from cleaning the gravel on the ridge.
"It doesn't hurt," Jinguji Maki said stubbornly.
"Pain is an objective feeling. There is no need to avoid it," Qingchen said calmly: "It will not disappear just because you avoid it."
"It hurts..." Jinguji Maki said aggrievedly.
"Are you complaining about me in your heart?" Qingchen asked.
"A little bit, but soon it's gone," Jinguji Maki whispered.
"Why?" Qingchen asked again.
Jinguji Maki said in a very low voice: "Although I am very tired and in pain, I am also worried about what will happen to Onii-chan alone on the ridge. It must be boring to clean up the gravel on the ridge alone.
Tioni-chan probably stays there alone because he feels bored, so he wants me to accompany him."
Qingchen was silent for a while. It was all a mess. The imagination of a little girl was beyond the reach of an adult.
He thought for a while and said, "Come here, I'll pop your blisters, apply some medicine, and you'll be fine after a good sleep."
Jinguji Maki hurried to the door of Qingchen's tent, but was a little scared: "Will it hurt?"
"No," Qingchen shook his head.
Jinguji Maki knelt down outside the tent with peace of mind and carefully spread out his palms. There were twelve blisters on his two small hands.
"wait for me here."
Qingchen went to the tourist service center to find a medical first aid kit. When he passed by a TV, he saw that the TV turned on out of thin air.
In such a dark environment, it is simply terrifying to have a TV suddenly turned on.
Qingchen watched expressionlessly, but saw a line of text displayed on the TV: "Buy a mobile phone for the little girl, the money will come from my salary."
"Do you like her?" Qingchen asked calmly.
"good."
"If it's just okay, I won't buy her a mobile phone," Qingchen responded calmly.
"like very much."
"Then the money for the medicine I gave her will also come from you," Qingchen said.
"You are ruthless, you are cold, you are unreasonable."
"What the hell have you been watching lately..." Qingchen left expressionlessly again.
Ever since he arrived in the island country, the world has followed him here.
It seems that Fenyi really likes little girls, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to say that he wanted to buy a mobile phone for the little girl in the middle of the night.
Qingchen took the first aid kit, found a suture needle from it, and then squeezed Jinguji Maki's little hand.
The little girl looked at it helplessly: "Doesn't it really hurt?"
"Um."
The next moment, when Qingchen popped the blisters, it affected the little girl's skin, and she almost burst into tears: "Onii-chan, didn't you say it doesn't hurt?"
Qingchen: "Well, I don't feel any pain."
Jinguji Maki: "..."
Qingchen took out the black ointment from his pocket. He brought it from China and originally wanted to keep it for himself. After all, he would definitely be injured during the training of the knight's life and death challenge.
As a result, more than half of it is now used just to treat the little girl.
This money must be given to the world in part.
"Onii-chan, why do you have to endure so much hardship when you are born?" the little girl whispered.
"Pain, frustration, and misfortune are the steps for genius, the water of baptism for believers, and the bottomless abyss for the weak. Fate only gives you a choice. How you choose is your own business."
"profound."
Qingchen finally finished picking out the blisters on the little girl's palm, but found that Jinguji Maki had fallen asleep holding his arm just as he was gathering the first aid kit.
Qingchen sat cross-legged.
The little girl rested her head on his knees, and her thick long hair spread all over the floor like a waterfall, like a black flower in full bloom.
He tried to pull the little girl away, but he heard the little girl pleading in his dream: "Onii-chan, don't go."
