994 Human Relations

arge sum Two hundred thousand is quite generous, just because someone helped you” Tang Yufei gave me a playful nudge with her elbow: “This young man is quite handsome, he doesn’t look like someone fro...I quietly tucked my hand into my sleeve and gave Long Xiaoge a "hush" gesture.

Long Xiaoge raised his eyes to look at me, his gloomy eyes flickered slightly, but in the end he only let out a light hum and turned his head away.

Actually, my hand isn't anything special. I just gripped the gap on the stone platform tightly when things got urgent. I was pulling on Little Dragon at the time and almost had my waist broken by Fatso. I didn't even feel the pain in my hand.

Just now escaping danger, Mu Wanchen appeared before me again, and I finally let out a breath. When I hugged him, I realized my fingers were hurting so much.

Under the moonlight, I discovered that my nail had cracked, and my fingertips were covered in black bloodstains.

There's a shortage of doctors and medicine right now, but this isn't a big deal for me. I'm not in any immediate danger. If I start whining and complaining about pain now, that would be a bit dramatic.

Let's wait until we get home to be cute.

Long Xiao walked a step behind us, he saw it, but didn't expose me.

The moonlight in the sky is getting dimmer and dimmer. The big full moon from before has disappeared. Is this strange celestial phenomenon due to Mu Wanchen's magic

I leaned against his shoulder, my ear rubbing against his hair. Mu Wanchen raised his hand to support the back of my head and said in a low voice, "If you can't sleep, just take a nap. Nothing will disturb you. I'll call you when I find the car."

"Mm." I closed my eyes as he instructed.

This feeling is completely different from when I was at the Witch King's City. Back then, I had a more relaxed mindset, listening to the wind and feeling the breath of the trees and flowers.

Now I only feel disgust. This gloomy and oppressive atmosphere makes me feel uncomfortable all over, and it's full of danger. Who knows when the Dragon King's men will suddenly appear.

Originally, Brother Long had lured those walking corpses away. Then he went around to Lao Zhang's bamboo hut and pushed the three corpses off his car. He cast a spell on them, making a commotion.

The car is almost out of gas, we'll have to abandon it and now we need to find Old Zhang's car.

Long Xiao brought out the first-aid kit from his car, but it was mostly useless after he'd treated my wound. I guess my finger will have to wait until we're safe to be looked at properly.

The three corpses were stiffened by dragon brother's blood. Once the blood dried or was washed away by rain, it would lose its effect and eventually turn to dust, becoming a pile of bones scattered in this remote and impoverished deep mountain old forest.

This village is estimated to be deserted. The zombies in the nursing home and behind the doors have all been burned. The Dragon King wanted to create these strange things, but his plan has failed. Let's see how many more villages he can ruin like this.

“He was very cautious, not coming into his own core territory. If he failed, his reputation there would collapse, and he'd still need the locals to support him.” Mu Wanchen said.

He could pretend he didn't care, but since he wanted to go after our ancestors' secrets, there was nothing to say. He had to be killed. Long Xia ge coldly said: "We might suffer losses now, but we will get revenge sooner or later."

"You should focus on healing first. You're nowhere near ready to take on the Dragon King," Mu Wanchen said ruthlessly.

He's way too heartless... Although, age-wise, he's practically a grandfather.

Long Xiaogē looked to be in his twenties. He didn't lose out after being reprimanded by Mu Wanchen.

"However, there's an old hermit where you are who should be able to guide you on what to do," Mu Wanchen smiled knowingly.

I couldn't help but ask, "What kind of old immortal are you talking about Does the Miao King City have any immortal deities residing there"

Long Xiaoge didn't shy away from revealing the truth. He said calmly, "Yes, I live in an ancient tomb within Miao Wang City. I've been there for a thousand years."

"...Really, a Corpse Immortal A corpse is an inanimate object, walking corpses can be explained, but becoming immortal... how do you explain that" I whispered, looking at Mu Wanchen.

"The world is vast, with no wonder that does not exist. Even old trees and withered vines can become spirits, so how can a corpse not become an immortal Moreover, the meaning of this word 'immortal' is different from the immortals you understand." Mu Wanchen explained to me in a low voice.

When he speaks to me, his tone softens automatically, and his voice becomes more gentle.

It felt like honey was oozing through my heart.

"Heaven, Earth, Gods, Humans, and Ghosts, although they are the Five Immortals, their concepts are completely different. Heavenly Immortals are supreme, while Ghost Immortals are at the bottom. Their cultivation and Taoist path are worlds apart."

"The Corpse Immortal also belongs to the Ghost Immortal lineage, but their cultivation paths differ. Ghosts are yin spirits, and corpses are the remnants of a body after shedding its mortal form. It's likely that King Miao's ancestor had great virtue and good fortune in his past life, allowing his spirit to ascend while his physical remains remained undying. The circumstances surrounding this are beyond our comprehension."

Mu Wanchen was acknowledging and supporting Long Xiaogē and their belief. I only heard it half-heartedly, but I also knew not to press further. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

How can ordinary people understand so many things It's better not to think about it.

Even the venerable immortals have things they don't understand and still need to cultivate and comprehend. Why should I bother racking my brain

"Hey, Long Xiaogē, how powerful are your old immortals Can they handle that monster hiding in another world" I asked half-jokingly.

"What old monster" Long Xiaoge asked, confused.

I briefly explained it to him, and Long Xiao shook his head: "Impossible. The great witch kings of all generations are not on the same level as us. If it were a witch king from a thousand years ago, he would be even more unpredictable, beyond comprehension... Besides, our old immortal resides in an ancient tomb, just a belief."

"Haha, only now do I realize that faith is the greatest power." I smiled.

Leaving our domain of faith, we are met with restrictions everywhere. Even Master wouldn't want to involve himself in these matters.

"...I heard that Mu Xiaqiao once took a big shot's job, to summon souls abroad. Her master just stood on the mountain border, for Mu Xiaqiao, he erected a summoning banner, bringing back Yin souls from dozens or even hundreds of miles away... He wasn't willing to take a single step." Mu Wanchen said.

"Haha, so even Master wouldn't dare to set foot there"

Long Xiaoge, hearing this conversation, frowned and asked, "Mu Xiaqiao Which Mu Xiaqiao are you talking about"

“There are still several Mu families and several Mu Xiaoqiao within your yin-yang circle, aren't there” Mu Wanchen replied calmly.

"Are you guys close with Mu Xia Qiao" Long Ge raised his hand to brush his hair back.

I rested my chin on Mu Wanchen's shoulder and smiled, "You know them pretty well. Mu Yunfan and Mu Xia Qiao are staying at my place temporarily. Would you like to come over"

"What am I supposed to do" Long Xiao frowned.

“Don’t you know my little junior sister Mu Xia Qiao is my junior sister. She came to meet friends and, by the way...to recuperate from her injuries. My place is great for healing, many people would pay a lot of money for just one room, but I’ve arranged a whole courtyard for you.”

Mu Wanchen glanced at me and said in a low voice, "Why do you take everything broken home Injured cats, injured people..."

I shook my head slightly and said with a hint of pride: "A truly great physician heals the sick by calming the mind and stabilizing one's intentions, free from desire and expectation. First, one must cultivate a boundless compassion and empathy, vowing to alleviate the suffering of all sentient beings…"

I just pretended to put a hat on myself, trying to act like I was smart, imitating the classic pose of the Sage King of Medicine.

To my surprise, Mu Wanchen... suddenly smiled.

The moonlight wasn't beautiful anymore, but looking at his smile up close made me speechless.

He tilted his head slightly, the curve of his lips was soft and beautiful, he was so close to me, his voice was like a gentle breeze.

"When someone comes seeking help for illness, one should not ask about their social status, wealth or poverty, age, appearance, relationships (whether they are enemies or friends), ethnicity or intelligence. Treat them all equally, just as you would a close relative…"

"Unexpectedly, my little queen possesses such a compassionate heart."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated! waiting for us in the hallway of the delivery room floor.She greeted Master Huicqing with a few polite words, then lowered her voice and said to me, “Sister Zhao is dead.”"Dead"She furrowed her brows...
