"Of course I do, I have as much sense of justice as you do, "Hao Ning hurriedly nodded in agreement, making Liu Shuai comfortable, while Hao Ning continued speaking," Of course I support your point of view — — how about this, when we see that person in the future, your punch him first, I will help you right after that. "
"That's more like it," Liu Shuai laughed. With Hao Ning, this unreliable 'martial arts expert,' since that person was just an ordinary person, he should be able to take care of him easily. He was in a happy mood, no wonder he would ignore the suddenly appeared strange expression and declaration of Hao Ning.
"Did something happen after that?" Seeing that Liu Shuai had already fallen for this trap, Hao Ning did not continue arguing with him. After thinking for a bit, he continued to ask Long Fei, "What was that flood that Teacher Ren mentioned?"
"Yeah, that flood …" Long Fei nodded, looked out the window at the gentle breeze and suns.h.i.+ne, and continued to recall, "A few years later, I used Yufei's knowledge and intelligence in his body to finish the study as a doctoral candidate."
"No wonder you're so amazing!" Liu Shuai slapped his thigh, and was enlightened, as he praised, "So you learned so much using Yufei's body! Speaking of which, you are also an expert in 'Lend Me Your Mana'! " As he spoke, Liu Shuai glanced at Hao Ning, "However, there are some people whose borrowed mana cannot last long, and yet you can continuously use it, and even nearly obtained such a high level of degree."
Strangely, Hao Ning heard Liu Shuai's sarcasm and did not refute it. Instead, he just smiled and did not say a word.
"Well... He's brilliant, he can learn anything. " Long Fei scratched his head in embarra.s.sment, and then he became sad: "Back then, Yufei himself did not care too much about his education, he only cared about how much ability he could have. He had once said that a diploma was the most ironic thing in the world, a doctoral degree seems to have the function of a leaf on Adam's and Eve's lower body, to cover up the embarra.s.sment. A small square of paper can cover up a person's emptiness, clumsiness, and stupidity. "
"That remark was – real and harsh." Hearing Long Fei's words, Liu Shuai couldn't help but to laugh bitterly, "A person who hasn't seen through the world couldn't say such words, I really can't think of a teenage boy saying such words."
"These words were not originated by Yufei, but what Qian Zhongshu said in Fortress Besieged." Although Hao Ning was correcting Liu Shuai, he still laughed, "At least you are right about one thing. Being able to say these words when he was still a teenage boy, it is either because Yufei didn't like it when he saw people fighting crazily over a diploma for no reason, or because he only cared about his own abilities and was not willing to consider this piece of proof at all."
"That's right..." Long Fei's eyes lit up, and he nodded as he agreed to Hao Ning's words, "Hao Ning, you have really hit the nail on the head. I finally understand, he was willing to sacrifice himself to help that person pursue a doctorate because a diploma was nothing to him, but that person was the most important person in his heart. I've lived for him for so many years, but I don't understand him as well as you do. "
"Don't say so..." Hao Ning wasn't used to Long Fei comparing him to someone who had already lost all his soul and had a G.o.d residing in his body. Thinking about this, Hao Ning thought of Zhou Yuan, who was also a soulless body that had been possessed by a G.o.d, and continued to ask him the question that had existed in his heart for a long time, "At that time, was he really him, or was it you? What exactly is the relations.h.i.+p between the two of you? "
"I don't know," Long Fei was a little confused as he closed his eyes and thought for a while, "This isn't Possession, it's more like a continuation as if I were his life. But I also know that I'm not him, no matter what, in those few years, I lived to become him, and that's it."
"You lived to become him?" Hao Ning carefully mulled over the meaning of the sentence, and immediately understood the reason why Long Fei, with his extremely high intelligence, would act ridiculously sometimes. How could a person who had lived into someone else's life possibly live normally? It was like a person without financial capabilities suddenly receiving a prize of one hundred million dollars. Since he did not know how to spend it, his style of doing things naturally would not fit in.
"What happened to the flood?" Liu Shuai thought of the question that Hao Ning had asked at the beginning, "Even though you were in Yufei's body, with your ability, you wouldn't have been drowned to death by the flood, right?"
"At that time, we were traveling together, yes, upstream of the waterfall," Long Fei nodded his head, and recalled, "This was something that I could not wrap my head around as well. The weather was originally perfect that day, however, when we were at the river bank, I felt a sudden surge of water in front of us, and before long, heavy rain would start to fall on the river. If there were no surprise, 20 minutes later, the place where we stayed would suffer a big flood that would probably damage the dike."
"Then why weren't you hurriedly running away?" Hao Ning asked with his eyes wide open, "In an emergency like that, you had to evacuate the people!"
"Brother, you're so stupid." Liu Shuai looked at Hao Ning with some sympathy in his eyes, as he said in a disapproving manner, "Your reasoning could only be used on mortals? Don't forget that this was a Dragon G.o.d. What was his first reaction to rain in front of him? "
"Err …" Hao Ning's face flushed as if he really had not thought about the question from a G.o.d's perspective. He subconsciously asked, "What reaction?"
"Heh — —" Liu Shuai laughed, and the smile of sympathy towards Hao Ning increased, and he laughed, "You're still asking me? Isn't this idea the one you suggested to Long Fei today? "
"I did?" Hao Ning thought about it carefully and thought about the bad idea he gave Long Fei this morning to earn more money. "You didn't actually go upstream to stop the rain, did you?"
"That's right..." Long Fei smiled bitterly, "That was indeed my reaction back then." With that, he looked at Liu Shuai and nodded: "You understand me."
"I don't, I only understand a little more than ordinary people about the thoughts of G.o.ds. Moreover, this is something someone else taught me." Liu Shuai's eyes dimmed a little, and asked: "Then what happened next? Why was the flood still coming? "
"After my soul left Yufei's body, I rushed upstream and discovered that it wasn't rain at all, but …" As Long Fei said till here, his lips s.h.i.+vered, and he suddenly didn't dare say anything.
"What was it? Don't keep us in suspense! " Liu Shuai was anxious.
"But the sky was leaking …" Long Fei held back for a long time before finally saying these words.
"Puff …" Hao Ning spat out a mouthful of tea at Long Fei. Long Fei pointed at it, and it floated obediently in the air. After that, it flew back into Hao Ning's teacup. Hao Ning was a little disgusted, he put the teacup aside and started to drink water with another cup. With such a ruckus, the originally miserable atmosphere was utterly changed by Long Fei's words, "The sky leaked, you must be out of your mind. After all, you are a dragon G.o.d, don't you know that the rainwater is actually condensed from the cold air after the steam rises …"
"Nonsense, I found it unbelievable just because I knew that." Long Fei was a little unhappy, he felt that his professionalism as the Dragon G.o.d had been challenged, "I know that you definitely won't believe me if I said this, but what I said was indeed the truth."
"Alright, alright, how was it leaking?" Hao Ning was a little interested, as he looked at the furious Long Fei in front of him, "Describe it to me properly."
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you," Long Fei looked around, and seeing that the waiters were in the distance chatting while eating sunflower seeds, he waved his hand, and a layer of mist enveloped the surroundings. Hao Ning knew about this technique of Long Fei's. It was an illusion technique, and no matter what happened here, when the people of the outside world looked in this direction, they would not feel that anything was amiss.
Long Fei blew on the teacup, and the tea gradually flowed out from the cup, forming a small river. The water in the small river slowly turned into white steam and rose up, creating a series of clouds in the air, the clouds gradually turned dark, and after a while, a crackling light started to appear from the dark clouds, which Hao Ning knew it was lightning, and started to drizzle down onto the teacup. Long Fei pointed at the drizzle and said, "This is normal rain or thundershower, you guys understand, right?"
"What, you're going to start the lecture with magic?" Hao Ning found it funny, he suddenly felt that Long Fei's way of narrating natural phenomena was exciting. If Long Fei were not the Dragon G.o.d and became a science teacher instead, it would be very suitable for him.
"Stop talking nonsense, look," Long Fei laughed for what Hao Ning said. As he spoke, the mist disappeared and gradually turned into an egg-shaped thing in blue color. "This is the blue sky that I saw at that time." Long Fei said as he pointed to the blue eggsh.e.l.l. Not long after, a hole appeared in the blue eggsh.e.l.l, and after it was broken, water started flowing out of the hole. As if it was free, the water fell into the teacup, and the cup was immediately filled with water, and the water quickly spread onto the table and flowed towards Hao Ning and Liu Shuai.
"F * ck!" The two of them immediately moved back to prevent the water from dripping onto their bodies.
Seeing that, Long Fei stopped his technique, the water then flowed back into the cup as if it was alive, there was still as much water as before, without any leakage, Long Fei looked at the two of them and said: "That was what the sky, the hole, and the rain looked like on that day."
"How was this possible?" Liu Shuai was the first to speak, "Everyone knows that the blue sky is made up of air. How can a hole in a blue sky like this appear, and rainwater seeping out from the hole!"
"That's why it's so strange, and I felt a faint wave of mana inside the hole at the time," Long Fei nodded his head, narrating the extremely ordinary yet strange matter. "The strangest thing was that when I wanted to get near to that place, I suddenly felt that my soul was unstable, and when a burst of light arrived, I immediately fainted. When I woke up, I realized that the sky was not leaking anymore, but the river has already risen by a lot and was rus.h.i.+ng downstream."
"The sky was not leaking?" Hao Ning was a little curious about Long Fei's description, "Are you saying that the rain has stopped?"
"The sky stopped leaking!" Long Fei said with absolute certainty, "Originally, there were no clouds at all. It couldn't rain there! Before and after, there were no clouds! I know this very well! "
"But you said the river rose?" Hao Ning carefully thought about it, "Which is to say, that water was really caused by the Leakage of the sky. And it wasn't illusion trick an expert was using, but a real leakage? What in the world was this …"
"..." Liu Shuai didn't want to argue too much over this matter, so no matter how much Hao Ning thought and couldn't stop himself from nagging, Liu Shuai continued to ask, "What happened next?"
"Later …" Long Fei continued to reminisce, but closed his eyes, "I immediately flew back to where Yufei's body was, only then did I realize that my soul was fragile, as though I have suffered a severe injury. And when I went back, although the flood had arrived, it did not break the dike … "
"That's good," Liu Shuai patted his chest. "It's best if people were safe and sound."
"But Yufei's body has already disappeared," Long Fei continued to close his eyes as if he was enduring something. Although his eyes were closed, his fists were clenched very tightly, "I saw Yufei's fellow cla.s.smates standing on the sh.o.r.e, and the man Yufei loved said something to the others. Thus, my spirit flew over to them and carefully listened, hoping to find out where Yufei had gone to."
"What did you hear?" Liu Shuai had an ominous premonition.
"That man said," Long Fei's expression was a little twisted. He opened his eyes and looked at Liu Shuai silently, and imitated the man's words in a strange and terrifying tone, "Remember, all of us pushed Yufei together, and none of us is innocent, so Yufei died from exhaustion to save our fellow cla.s.smates who fell into the water …"
"They pushed him down together? Yet they would say that he died from exhaustion?" After Liu Shuai heard this, he laughed miserably and said, "Died from exhaustion? Hahaha, were there really such shameless people? They pushed their cla.s.smate into the river, and to escape the blame, they lied together? They …"
"And then?" Hao Ning stopped Liu Shuai and continued to ask, "Did you find Yufei?"
"Yes, I did. He was rushed down the waterfall, and he was out of all recognition." Long Fei covered his face and shook his head, his voice coming out from the gaps between his fingers, unable to be heard clearly, "Forget about the situation I was in at that time, even with my current mana, I couldn't save anything. Later, in the sky, I coldly watched his cla.s.smates find and transport Yufei's corpse back to school, hold a fake memorial service, cremation, and blessings. The expression on their faces really was like that for the death of a friend that they would never be willing to part with. "
"Now you know why I didn't want to return to Qingbei and obtain that degree?" Long Fei looked at Liu Shuai and sneered, "Firstly, back then, Yufei didn't value his education much. Secondly, why should I have the same label as these people with the heart of a beast? It would be my shame if this label were placed on me! "
"You …" Liu Shuai looked at Long Fei, who was using a cold tone to speak the indignant words and did not say a single word.
"Of course — —" Long Fei's expression eased up slightly, he shook his head, slowed down his breathing, and continued, "Not every student in Qingbei was like this, there were still a lot of people who treated Yufei very well. For example, after Yufei dies, Teacher Ren felt sad for a long time, and that's why when Teacher Ren saw me, she fainted from excitement." Long Fei thought for a while, then looked at Hao Ning, "You're right, this was the evil of humanity, it had nothing to do with Qingbei."
"So now, you have changed into the appearance of Yufei--"Hao Ning looked at the Dragon G.o.d in front of him. He never thought that this little G.o.d, who was originally a little chatty and unreliable, would have such a complicated story. "Is it in memory of him?"
"I was named by Yufei." Long Fei looked at Hao Ning. "I've been Yufei for a few years afterward, and I really can't think of a reason to change my appearance. Perhaps — "Long Fei looked out of the window and mumbled," I still hope that the once simple, kind-hearted child who always rode on me and flew into the sky behind the Dragon Shrine, was still alive forever."
"Have you never thought of taking revenge?" Liu Shuai sighed and asked.
"Revenge?" Long Fei said in grief, "Whose revenge? Mine? The man didn't hurt me. Yufei? When I became Yufei, I inherited Yufei's memories. Only then did I know how strong Yufei's feelings for that person were. He just couldn't say it out loud. Tell me, how should I take revenge? "
"So, can you still stay calm when facing that person?" Hao Ning suddenly asked, "The man that Yufei love and killed Yufei in the end?"
"Why can't I?" Long Fei's eyes flickered, as though he was feeling a little uncomfortable, "I just said -"
"Perhaps you could lie to yourself about this, but if you want to lie about it to me … Hehe. When you were facing Chen Busheng just now, "Hao Ning took a sip of tea and shook his head," I felt that you were not that calm. "
"Hao Ning, what are you talking about?" Liu Shuai laughed and was about to laugh at Long Fei, but his expression suddenly changed, "Are you saying that the person who caused Yufei's death was Xiaowen's cousin? How is that possible? "
"How do you know?" Long Fei asked, this sentence, was equivalent to admitting it.
"I guessed." Hao Ning kept the cup of tea in his mouth for a long time, it was extremely bitter, but in the end, he swallowed it, "I would rather I guessed wrong, Alas … a person could rise to such a high position after graduation, and could use such strange methods during the SARS period. Moreover, Long Fei, you said that the person could have known of the internal policies of Qingbei in advance, and could have instigated the entire dorm to do such a thing. It is impossible without any background, so I guessed … "
"Alas …" Long Fei sighed and nodded, "It's also because he is the grandson of Teacher Ren that I have always been in a contradiction."
"Holy s.h.i.+t, I saw him being so friendly with you today," Liu Shuai said coldly. "And I thought he had a good relations.h.i.+p with you! But he turned out to be this kind of person! No wonder he had to push the people over to his cousin's place. He must be afraid of leakages in other places!"
"Do you still plan to beat the cousin of Xiaowen every time you see him?" Hao Ning glanced at Liu Shuai, and said intentionally, "I'll keep the words I said before, as long as you punch first, I will follow you immediately. One Solar Finger, Seven Injuries Fist, Eighteen Subduing Dragon Strikes, Life and Death Talisman, Six Solar Palm of Tianshan Mountain, just randomly pick one, what do they say? What Qili said--exactly, if you don't beat him until his face bloomed, he won't know why flowers are so red! "
"Well — That person is Xiaowen's cousin after all …" Liu Shuai hesitated for a moment, then reacted, "Alright, you set me up, didn't you? You already knew that it was the cousin of Xiaowen, so you intentionally provoked me to say such words? Tell me, how come you're like a Holmes now, able to deduce so much with just the slightest trace?"
"Was that the slightest trace?" Hao Ning blocked Liu Shuai's fist that was about to hit him, and laughed while ridiculing him, "I almost wrote out the correct answer in your face, didn't I? When you saw Xiaowen, your mind couldn't even think straight, okay? And I also know, no matter who it is, "Hao Ning paused as he spoke, looked at Long Fei and said," You have your reason of not making a move, don't you?"
Long Fei nodded his head: "The thoughts of people are too complicated, I would rather be a G.o.d being wors.h.i.+ped in a temple than to have to deal with such a cause and effect again, this was also Yufei's wish for me."
"Alas," Hao Ning sighed softly, thinking to himself, what's going on with me today? At first, he felt that he found out Long Fei's secret, some shameful secret, but after hearing it, he realized that it was a sad story. He was doing the unnecessary thing, bringing back the sad thoughts of Long Fei. Thinking about it, he hurriedly changed the topic and shouted at Liu Shuai, "Who did you just say was Holmes? Wherever he goes, people die, okay? Did anybody die in any place I went?"
"Hehe, n.o.body died in the places you went, but wherever you eat, there's always a fight." Liu Shuai also smiled slightly and said t.i.t for tat, "You are just a fighting version of Holmes, a serious agitator of unstable people in the society."
"Nonsense!" Hao Ning laughed and scolded, "Nonsense, every time we met in a fight, it was always you and me eating together, why couldn't you be the agitator?"
"Pah!" Suddenly, the sound of a bowl smas.h.i.+ng was heard, "Why is your service here so poor? Call your manager out! "
Hao Ning and Liu Shuai looked over and suddenly realized that there were so many people in the hall. When they looked at the watch, they realized that they had been talking for nearly three hours, now was the peak hour of eating, outside the water cover, there were already a lot of customers. One of the customers had already broken a bowl of soup beside him, and the soup in the bowl had splattered onto the floor, looking like an unknown flower. And as for the customer, he was a big rough guy, as if he was from the Water Margin.
"Holy Sh*t!" Seeing that, Liu Shuai took another look at Hao Ning, and muttered depressingly: "Seriously? What I said was that accurate? I said you're a jinx! See? They are about to fight again! "
"Who's a jinx?" A voice came. The two looked carefully and found that Zhou Yuan was standing beside them, talking to them with a smile on his face.
