Since the last time they talked, Arong has been unwilling to leave here. Arong has no choice but to move to the east of the city alone.
After all, the cultivation environment here is completely incomparable to that there.
Ar-Qiong is already a foundation-building monk. If she keeps living here, it will only damage her cultivation. Of course, she will still take the time to come over and see Ah-Rong every day to make sure that this guy won't do anything stupid.
Fortunately, nothing happened as she imagined. Apart from not going out and staying at home every day, there was nothing unusual about Ah Rong.
After half a month like this, Arjun gradually felt relieved.
Because of what happened last time, she didn't dare to rashly persuade Ah Rong to practice anything. She could only slowly let time kill him. She believed that one day she would figure it out. Even if the other person really couldn't figure it out and couldn't break through in the end,
Even if her longevity is exhausted, she will not let her end up dead, at least she will be able to settle down in her old age.
These are of course just Arjun’s own inner thoughts.
Now she puts her mind aside for the time being. In addition to practicing, she also has to find ways to do tasks to earn spiritual stone pills. After all, if a foundation-building casual cultivator like her wants to go further, the effort she puts in may be a hundred times that of those sect monks.
"Arong, I'm leaving. I have to go on a mission today. If you're bored at home, just read a book or something." After Arong came over to see Arong in the morning, he said something and left.
After seeing Arjun off, Arong sat in a chair and was in a daze for a while, then picked up the book and read it for a while, but soon put it down.
She felt like she couldn't muster the energy to do anything.
Even every time I calm down, a huge sadness will surge up in my heart for no reason.
She also knew that something was wrong with this state, because she had suffered from similar symptoms for a while when she was a child. At that time, the doctor diagnosed her with depression. Later, she relied on herself to take care of herself and take medicine, and the symptoms gradually disappeared. Then she met that guy.
, she had a solution in her mind and didn’t have so many thoughts, but she didn’t expect that this relapse would come so suddenly and quickly.
A great feeling of sadness enveloped her, and she picked up a short knife on the table.
Staring at himself in the mirror, he slowly placed the knife on his neck.
"Dong dong dong——"
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Arong's hands shook, as if he had woken up from a nightmare, and he stood up quickly and said, "Arong, why are you back?"
She walked to the door, opened it, and her face suddenly paused: "Why is it you?"
The person standing at the door was not Arqiong, but Mu Feng, the leader of the adventure team she had joined several times on missions.
Mu Feng glanced at Ah Rong unexpectedly and said: "That's it. I see you haven't appeared for a long time. Why don't you come to do the task? It just so happens that there is a very good task this time. The reward is very high. Each person can
We’ve been given fifty spiritual stones, shall we go together?”
Arong shook his head calmly: "No, I won't go. Captain Mu, please find someone else."
"The mission is really good, and the risk is not high. It's just to catch some yellow-winged foxes on the north side of the Hurricane Mountains. Ah Rong, let's go together."
"I really won't go, thank you for your kindness."
"Arong..."
"I'm sorry, Captain Mufeng, I'm not feeling well. If nothing's wrong, I'd like to rest first."
Looking at the closed door.
Mu Feng stood at the door, paused for about a minute, then smiled, turned and left.
In the room, Arong sat down, and after being in a daze for a while, he suddenly remembered something and touched his face. He had been living in a dark place these past few days, and he had no energy. Besides, no one else would come here except Arong.
, so she forgot to disguise herself and seemed to reveal her original appearance.
Captain Mufeng just saw that he didn't have any surprise expression on his face, so he started chatting with him.
Also, she has never invited anyone else to live here, and no one knows she lives here except Arqiong. How could Mufeng know about it and come here.
Arong shook his head, feeling a little strange.
But soon, a huge hollow feeling came out from the bottom of her heart, making her numb to everything. Who cares, maybe he accidentally saw it and thought about it so much. She didn't plan to go out again.
After completing the mission, she gave all the spiritual stones to Arqiong. From now on, she will not earn spiritual stones again, and she will not contact anyone she has contacted in the past.
She forced herself to put away the knife on the table.
Although the feeling of hollow despair was gnawing at her heart crazily, and she wanted to kill her, she didn't intend to kill herself just like that. It wasn't that she had any illusions, she just felt that suicide was stupid.
I don’t want to let myself be controlled by my emotions.
From day to night.
She did a lot of things, including reading, writing, painting, and playing the pipa, but she didn't last long and couldn't calm down. She looked at the sky getting dark outside, so she lay on the bed without eating anything.
Just fall asleep. She muttered the Heart-Cleaning Mantra in her heart and used magic power to stimulate her sleeping points, feeling dazed.
She seemed to smell of alcohol.
She opened her eyes in a hurry and looked outside. It seemed that only the wind was blowing and crackling on the windows. Was it because her windows were not locked?
She got up, walked to the window, opened the window, pulled it back, and inserted the latch.
But at this moment, she felt that all the hair on her body stood up, and a shadow... was behind her.
She rubbed her hands violently, and bang! The whole room exploded with a ball of light. It was a low-level flash technique. Because it was too sudden, she saw a figure suddenly retreating, and with that light, she could see that person clearly—
—Mu Feng.
"You, why are you here!" Ah Rong almost screamed, with a voice she had never heard before.
Mu Feng rubbed his eyes and waved his hand: "Ah Rong, don't be afraid. I was passing by and saw your door open, so I thought something happened. I heard that it was a mess here and I was worried about you, so I came in.
of."
Arong suppressed his frantically beating heart and said in a cold voice: "Impossible, I kept the door locked, and why didn't you make any sound? Wouldn't you call me?"
"I just came in, maybe there was a thief just now..."
"Okay, I understand, thank you, you can go out." Arong opened the door.
"Really, don't get me wrong."
"I know, get out of here!" Ah Rong shouted sharply.
"Okay, okay, I'll go out right now..." Mu Feng raised his hand and walked towards the door step by step. When he reached the door, he stepped out with one foot. Suddenly he grabbed the door and closed it hard.
He quickly retracted it, turned around, pressed his whole back against the door, and stared at Ah Rong.
"Why don't you believe me..."
Ah Rong was frightened by his actions and took a step back, shouting: "What do you want to do?"
Mu Feng murmured: "Why don't you believe me?"
"You...get out of here!" Arong took a few steps back and suddenly slammed towards the window.
But the next moment, a ray of light shot out, and Ah Rong bumped into it and was bounced back into the room. Mu Feng held a small black flag in his hand, and black threads spread out from the flag, filling the entire room.
