When the Great Dao Dies, I Remain; When Spiritual Energy Withers, I Endure

Chapter 635: Night Talk Between Two People

Zhao Qing was in a state of confusion, and she didn't know how long it lasted. When she woke up again, she saw that it was late at night, the moon was high in the sky, and it was snowing outside the island, but the river was not frozen, reflecting the moonlight, and there was an indescribable quiet and coldness.

She sat up and rubbed her temples. Suddenly, she felt a chill in her body. She frowned and looked around warily. Since she started practicing Taoism, she was born with a sense of crisis and was very sensitive to crises. The strong man who could make her feel cold all over must be a difficult existence.

However, when she looked around, she found that there was no one around, only a fire burning slowly. She walked towards the fire, and the coldness around her gradually faded. Then she laughed at herself. It was not that there was a strong enemy spying on her, but that her Taoism was now gone and she had completely turned into a mortal. Now it was snowing, so she naturally felt extremely cold.

She was warming herself by the fire. At this moment, she heard footsteps. She turned her head and looked. She noticed that by the bridge, there was a man who had made a fishing rod with simple branches and silk thread. The bait was also simple, some grass leaves. He was fishing. It seemed that he had caught a lot of fish. There were often splashes of water in the small wooden barrel next to him. It must be the fish that had been hooked, making a fuss in the barrel.

Seeing Zhao Qing wake up, Li Changxiao packed up his fishing gear and walked towards the fire. Before he arrived, the voice came first, "Are you awake?" Zhao Qing smiled and said, "I saw you for a while, you were so engrossed in fishing."

Li Changxiao said, "Nonsense, you just woke up." He sat by the fire. Zhao Qing picked up some firewood and threw it into the fire. The fire burned a little bigger, and she became a little warmer.

She said, "How did you come? I waited for you for a long time, but I couldn't see you. I knew that if I continued to wait, I would definitely see you again, but..." At this point, she didn't want to say anything. She always felt that she was a little sorry for Li Changxiao.

Li Changxiao smiled and said, "You didn't tell me where the Heart-seeking Bridge was. I had to ask someone about it, didn't I? Later, when I met Mu Shu and the others and heard about your Dao fruit, I thought that if I could get the Dao fruit, I would definitely be able to make the beauty smile. So I worked very hard and went to find the Dao fruit."

He always said this, intentionally or unintentionally, with a hint of romantic teasing. In fact, he was looking for the Dao fruit not to make the beauty smile, but because he couldn't bear to see her struggling between seeking the Dao and losing the Dao. That was the only reason. Li Changxiao did things as he pleased, which was a very small reason, and he could also do something earth-shattering because of it.

But he said this to liven up the atmosphere. Zhao Qing stretched out his hand and asked with a smile, "What about my Dao fruit?" Li Changxiao's expression dimmed, "It's halfway there."

Zhao Qing was not disappointed either. She murmured to herself, "I have found it." This Dao fruit is not that Dao fruit.

Li Changxiao used the river water under the bridge to clean several big fish, and then took out the Qingping long sword and washed it with wine. Then he pierced several big fish with one sword and hung them on the fire to roast.

Zhao Qing smiled and said, "It must have suffered a lot of injustice since it followed you." The Qingping sword shook spiritually, as if someone finally understood it.

Neither of them mentioned the matter on the bridge, because they knew that it was meaningless to mention it. Zhao Qing didn't care about anything else, but she was really curious about how Li Changxiao appeared here. Li Changxiao roasted the fish, one for each person. Eating fish alone was boring, so he told her about the things in the heaven and earth plate, why he appeared here, and who caused this heavy snow.

It's just a pity that if the two want to leave the island, they can't use this heaven and earth plate. The heaven and earth plate itself does not have the function of teleporting at will. It is a "trap" that is mainly used to trap and also to manipulate the heaven and earth. The Heaven and Earth Plate can be teleported into the island because it is vaguely connected to the luck of the island. The purpose of Mu Laozu to build this plate is to avoid the bridge of inquiry and escape outside. The Heaven and Earth Plate is deliberately connected to the luck of the island, so that the island and the Heaven and Earth Plate can be teleported to each other through tricks.

But Li Changxiao jumped in with the plate, and no matter how he fiddled with the Heaven and Earth Plate to teleport, he would always be on this island, which was meaningless.

Zhao Qing wanted to see the Heaven and Earth Plate, and Li Changxiao waved his hand lightly, and the Heaven and Earth Plate was suspended in his palm, hovering quietly. But the weight of this object, let alone Zhao Qing who has become a mortal, even the former Immortal Mu could not lift it. But with Li Changxiao holding it, it was no problem.

She took it in her hand and played with it, feeling amazed, and asked: "You are really extraordinary. I have never heard of anyone who can lift a moving device. You are so powerful."

Immediately, she pinched her chin, pondered for a moment and said: "I don't know if I can beat you before I leave."

She was not joking, she was really comparing secretly, "You have a moving device, which is indeed rare. The only means I can compete with it is the "pointing to the sky"..."

Li Changxiao hurriedly stopped, "If we really fight, I will admit defeat. Can I really fight you to death?"

Zhao Qing said: "I often hear Master say that men are good at sweet talk, but I have been practicing Taoism for many years and have heard very few sweet talk. I think Master has profound insights in other aspects, but this view is wrong. But after I met you, I think Master is right. In the past, I was too fierce. Others did not dare, but you did."

Li Changxiao recalled the past, and it was indeed so. Even he would never dare to say such words to Immortal Mu. Although it was not a dirty word, it was inevitable that there was a bit of "frivolity" in the words. It was no exaggeration to say that he was seeking his own death. He would really be hunted down and killed by this woman.

Li Chang smiled and said, "I didn't dare to do it before, but after getting along with you for a long time, I felt that... you have a fierce reputation, and you are indeed fierce, but your style of doing things can be guessed. If I don't provoke you, I don't have to worry about being hunted down by you."

Zhao Qing was surprised: "Hearing you say that, did you expect me to kill you?" Li Chang laughed and said: "More than expected, to be honest, whether it was the first time we met, I didn't know your true identity, or we met in Buddha City. I was always on guard, afraid that you would suddenly want to kill me, how would I escape."

Hearing this, Zhao Qing frowned, not knowing that he was so terrible in the other's heart. Then he smiled freely and said: "Then you don't have to worry so much in the future, I can't beat you now. And... I don't want to kill you anymore."
