Ah Rong quickly picked up the ring from the ground, carefully wiped the dust on it, held it tightly in his hand, frowned and said loudly: "What are you doing?"
This was the first time she spoke to Arjun in such a loud voice. Even if she encountered any situation in the past, Arong was always calm, had a good temper, and would not get angry.
So Arqiong was stunned for a moment and said: "I... just want you to stop having unrealistic illusions. The world of cultivation is very ruthless. You have been stuck in the Qi refining stage, and your lifespan is not much longer than that of ordinary people. 伱
How old are you this year? How many more years can you keep your appearance? You know it in your heart, right? In a few years, your appearance will fade with age, and your magic power will also fade with age. You will be miserable. You can't see it.
What happens to the monks in the ghetto who are nearing their end?"
Arong trembled.
How could she not see it?
In this area, there live many low-level monks and Qi-refining monks. To put it bluntly, they are healthier than mortals and have more ability to protect themselves, but in fact they still have not escaped from the mortal world.
As you get older, your physical strength will also decline, and your appearance will also age, just a little slower than ordinary people.
How old is she now?
Although she still looks like she is less than thirty years old, it may be because she took the Zhuyan Pill back then. In fact, she is already over forty, almost fifty. If she were a mortal, she would be middle-aged by now.
A woman.
But even so, Qi Refining monks will definitely decline after the age of fifty and lose hope of building a foundation.
She pinched the ring in her hand. This ring... was given to her by Xiaoshan back then. Although it didn't mean anything, it was for her to store things. But she kept it, not only because of the function of the ring, but because it had already
It was the only thing around her that still had his breath.
How many years have we not seen each other? Ten years? Twenty years?
I can’t even remember clearly.
Perhaps as Arqiong said, Xiaoshan had already forgotten him, or he would never be able to find her.
After all, the universe is too big and people are too small.
Even she herself doesn't know where she has ended up. The earth has long since been unable to return...Can't go back...
"Ah Rong, what's wrong with you?" Ah Qiong suddenly saw tears shed from the corners of Ah Rong's eyes, and stood there without making a sound, but could feel the infinite sadness in her body...
"Arong!"
Arqiong quickly stepped forward and supported her: "What's wrong with you? You're talking... I'm sorry, I talked too much. I shouldn't have said that to you, and I shouldn't have forced you."
Ah Rong shed tears and murmured: "I know, actually I know very well, that he can't come, but although I have followed the rules since I was a child, I will do whatever my parents tell me to do, but in fact I am not at all
I have loved people like that since I was a child
Dreaming, I remember a movie I watched when I was a child. My favorite sentence is... The person I love is an unparalleled hero... One day he will appear in a situation where everyone is watching, wearing golden armor and holy clothes, with feet
Come and marry me on the colorful auspicious clouds!
It's ridiculous, I'm so old, but I still have such a fantasy... Because I don't know if I have the courage to live if I don't even have this fantasy, so I desperately save a piece of spiritual stone...
, two pieces, trying desperately to find a way to get more and more spiritual stones in the ring... I feel that with every additional piece, he will get closer to me... Arjun, do you think I am stupid..."
Ah Rong raised his head and looked at Ar Qiong.
Arqiong felt a strong sense of uneasiness for some reason, and shook his head quickly: "No, no, how could this be stupid? You are really serious. Unlike me, I have already seen everything.
You are always wary of everyone, and you can't even really like someone. In fact, I envy you..."
Ah Rong smiled, raised a hand and wiped his tears: "By the way, you said you would come back and tidy up, so you are preparing to leave. You have already established the foundation. It is really not suitable to stay here. There is no aura here.
, the environment is harsh and not suitable for your cultivation."
"Well, I have found a good yard in Dongcheng. I have packed up my things and we can move there tonight." Seeing that Arong's expression seemed to have recovered, Arjun also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Congratulations... But Arjun, I won't go there. I'm used to living here."
Ar Qiong was stunned for a moment and quickly grabbed Arong's hand: "What do you mean, you still want to live here? Are you right? Or are you worried about the cost of living there? You don't have to worry about that. You don't have to."
The one who paid for it, I am now a foundation-building monk, and I earn enough to live in Dongcheng."
"No...Ar Qiong, I'm really used to it and don't want to leave." Arong's tone was soft and stubborn: "It's very expensive for you to live there, and as a foundation-building monk, to put it bluntly, you're still at the bottom.
I know that your wish is to become a golden elixir and be able to truly control your own destiny. If you are running around for a living all day long, how can you possibly cultivate it? I will give these spiritual stones to you."
As he said that, Ah Rong touched the ring, wow!
Suddenly, a small mountain of spiritual stones appeared in the room, and the spiritual light boiled. Arqiong had never seen so many spiritual stones in his whole life.
"This...is this what you saved up?"
Ar-Qiong was shocked. Seeing Ah-Rong nodding, she couldn't believe that a Qi-refining monk had accumulated so many spirit stones. How did she get here after so many years? Did she really not use any of them? So many spirit stones.
, to be honest, even she is jealous.
But then she realized a problem: "This... isn't this what you saved for your Taoist monk named Long? Why did you take it out?"
Arong's body trembled slightly, and then he shook his head calmly: "No need... You are right, a dream is a dream, it's time to wake up..."
Ar-Qiong opened her mouth. For so many years, she had been trying to persuade Ar-Rong, but now that she actually saw Ar-Rong give up, she was not happy at all, and even felt a little scared.
"No, no, what I said may not be right. Ah Rong, don't be like this. Put the spirit stone away quickly. You will definitely be able to wait until the one you love..."
Ah Rong's face turned watery: "It's really no need, Ah Qiong, you can take them all away."
"I don't want it. Hurry up. There are so many spiritual stones and the spiritual energy fluctuates greatly. People will find out and it will be troublesome." Ah Qiong urged, but Arong remained unmoved.
Until Arjun vaguely heard some rumors.
She knew it was bad, something would really happen if this continued, so she hurriedly put all the spirit stones in the storage bag.
After a while, she walked outside and snorted: "Who is sneaking around?"
The aura of the Foundation-Building Monk suddenly erupted, and the sound of the wind outside faded away. It seemed that Arqiong was not easy to mess with. After all, the Foundation-Building Monk was still very intimidating in this area.
Ah Qiong returned to the room and saw Ah Rong standing there calmly, but that kind of calmness that didn't care about anything made her feel very uncomfortable.
She sighed softly. After spending so many years together, she actually knew Ah Rong's character, soft on the outside but strong on the inside.
She was also a person who was not good at words. She couldn't make a lot of sense, so she could only say softly: "Ah Rong, it's too late today. You should have a good rest first. I will save the spirit stone for you. You can take it back anytime."
In the extremely distant starry sky, there seemed to be a star that flickered slightly.
