Chapter 20: Unquenchable Hatred
Qi Shanshan didn’t straighten up again until she had completely bandaged Li Weiyi’s wrist, putting down the scissors at the same time, and said, “I ate her!”
Qin Ke, standing behind her, was startled.
Because recently, she had often heard Scientific Expedition Team Members say that food would soon be exhausted, and in the future, there might be the horror of people eating people.
Qi Shanshan turned around, looked at Li Weiyi who was sitting there calmly watching her, and said irritably, “You only know to care about your Senior Student Sister Cai, I’m even jealous! Don’t worry, she’s very safe.”
She naturally knew that Li Weiyi wasn’t asking casually.
He was probing her.
So she answered very seriously, and added, “You all have no insight. A few days ago, I discovered Xie Tianshu and Kong Fan and others frequently contacting. This morning, after the Dark Clouds dispersed, you were all there studying ancient characters, while those two sneaked into the Kitchen Shed.”
“I didn’t dare follow, and couldn’t be sure what they were going to do, but I knew it was definitely not right. To prevent any mishaps, I could only pull Yutong to hide first.”
“It’s best that nothing happened, but if something did, we could hide first.”
Li Weiyi didn’t notice any flaws in Qi Shanshan’s eyes or expression, and her answer was watertight. He quickly stood up and smiled, “Don’t answer so seriously, it feels like an interrogation.”
“Aren’t you interrogating?”
Qi Shanshan looked a bit angry and walked toward the outside of the Medical Tent.
Li Weiyi followed, wanting to apologize. After all, when they first fell onto the Bronze Ship, half his life was saved by her. In the previous clash with the 705 Laboratory, if she hadn’t thrown the Cross Pendant to help, it was hard to say whether he or Han Qin would have survived.
Qi Shanshan suddenly turned around and collided fully with Li Weiyi who had caught up, letting out a coquettish cry of “Ouch,” her brows furrowing as she patted his chest and said, “Why are you walking so fast? You bumped into me and it hurts!”
“I still have words to say to you. Your Senior Disciple Brother’s injuries are very serious. His arm and kneecap are both comminuted fractures, and the blood vessels and nerves are also severely damaged. With the current medical conditions on the Ship… you need psychological preparation. Even if he pulls through, I’m afraid he’ll be paralyzed in bed for life.”
With warm fragrant soft jade in his arms, and the other party not wanting to leave, Li Weiyi had no mood at all. He quickly turned back to the Medical Tent, channeling the scalding hot Qi Flow from the sole of his right foot to his palm, wanting to try injecting it into his Senior Disciple Brother’s wound.
But even after pressing his hand on, he stopped again.
The scalding hot Qi Flow could only flow in the Silver Veins. His Senior Disciple Brother had no Veins in his body, so once injected, it would likely cause secondary damage.
Just like a Palm Force striking his Senior Disciple Brother’s body.
“Senior Disciple Brother has also studied the Jade Void Breathing Technique. As long as he wakes up and continues cultivating according to the Breathing Technique, perhaps he can cultivate that mysterious scalding hot Qi Flow himself. But…”
“With Senior Disciple Brother’s legs broken like this, can the soles of his feet still be born with scalding hot Qi Flow?”
Li Weiyi felt chest tightness and uncomfortable, as if a thousand-jin Giant Stone was pressing there. In an instant, many thoughts flashed through his mind. Even including giving his Senior Disciple Brother Black Flood Dragon Blood to drink, perhaps the injuries could heal.
But thinking of Xie Tianshu’s monster-like appearance, he really had no way to help his Senior Disciple Brother decide.
At this moment.
Outside the Medical Tent, from the direction of the Bow, a woman’s faint singing voice drifted from afar.
“A great river with wide waves,
Wind blowing the fragrance of Rice Flower on both shores,
My home is on the shore,
Used to hearing the boatman’s calls,
Used to seeing the white sails on the Ship…”
…
Who was singing?
While Li Weiyi and Qi Shanshan were both baffled.
Qin Ke thought of something: “It’s Liu Ying! We looked for her earlier but couldn’t find her. We all thought she had hidden in the Nether Mist Grave Forest…”
“Not good.”
Li Weiyi and Qi Shanshan rushed out of the Medical Tent one after the other.
Liu Ying was wrapped in a blanket full of dirt and sat on the gunwale at the Bow, with her Legs dangling in the air.
Her face, Legs, shoulders and arms exposed outside the blanket were all full of bruises and wounds.
Her eyes were filled with hollow Despair, memories of home, parents, and the once stable rule-of-law environment. Her Cheeks were full of tear stains, the Sea wind blew up her long hair, making the sobbing song even more hoarse and low, finally almost reciting the lyrics: “Everywhere… there is… peaceful sunshine…”
Urgent footsteps sounded behind her.
She jumped down without any reluctance.
Li Weiyi saw her jump with his own eyes, only a dozen steps away, but there was already no one on the gunwale.
Qi Shanshan and Qin Ke chased up panting.
Qin Ke rushed to the gunwale but didn’t dare to look down, able to guess that Liu Ying must be being devoured by Lost Souls swimming in the Seawater. Her tears fell like rain uncontrollably.
Qi Shanshan went over to comfort her: “After such a thing happened, how could she live. It’s okay, don’t be afraid, with Weiyi here, such a thing will absolutely not happen again on the Ship, he will protect us.”
Li Weiyi was in a heavy and angry Mood, holding the Long Sword, walking silently toward the Grave Forest drifting with Nether Mist.
Passing by the dying Chen Hong, he no longer had the idea of leaving revenge to his Senior Disciple Brother personally, punched through his chest. Then picked him up and threw him into the sea, like throwing away garbage.
Are they even human?
Worse than garbage.
…
Except for Xie Jin, the other four who escaped were all caught in the Grave Forest.
Someone buried themselves in the grave soil, only leaving nose and mouth.
But Breathing and heartbeat were still there, as long as close enough, couldn’t hide from Li Weiyi’s hearing.
When they learned that Liu Ying had jumped into the sea, Gao Huan and Professor Xu’s several students beat the two Security Team members who had bullied Liu Ying half to death. Finally, in the midst of collective indignation, pushed them into the Soul Sea.
Vaguely, Li Weiyi heard the Camel Bell in the Grave Forest again, immediately performed the Jade Void Breathing Technique, making Consciousness clear and bright, a deep doubt arose in his heart.
As for the other two, they naturally couldn’t avoid a beating.
But not thrown into the Soul Sea.
Someone suggested using them for Experiment.
After Xie Tianshu’s flood dragon-like mutation, although his appearance was strangely terrifying, he gained real Supernatural Power, perhaps already able to live for a hundred years or even centuries like the legendary Demons.
Compared to Supernatural Power and Longevity, what was sacrificing normal human appearance?
Strong Practitioners never have appearance anxiety.
Li Weiyi didn’t oppose, his view was the same as Zhao Meng’s.
Once a person shows fangs, he’s no longer human!
This wasn’t the dragon slayer eventually becoming the evil dragon, but against Enemies, one cannot have any mercy or soft-heartedness. The other party won’t appreciate it, only hide resentment in the heart, and when you’re weak, let you die without a burial place.
Moreover, Li Weiyi also wanted to Experiment with Black Flood Dragon Corpse Blood to judge the Possibility of saving his Senior Disciple Brother.
…
Too many things happened in one day.
All the Corpses of everyone were dealt with, either thrown into the sea or buried. After finishing, everyone was exhausted.
At the beginning.
No one could sleep at all, lit a bonfire, gathered together, afraid of similar Turmoil happening again.
And Xie Jin was never found, like a thorn in the flesh not pulled out, making it hard for them to feel at ease.
But by the second half of the night, they were too sleepy after all, except for the two on night watch, the rest all slept on the spot next to the bonfire.
Li Weiyi came alone to the other end of the Bronze Ship, walked under the Black Flood Dragon Corpse.
Wearing the Dragon Pattern Ring on his left thumb, he touched the Flood Dragon Blood condensed into purple-red Ice Crystals at the severed part of the Corpse, in an instant, Cold Air froze a layer of white frost on his fingers.
The Dragon Pattern Ring indeed reacted, the Dragon Scale patterns on it faintly lit up.
After Xie Tianshu’s flood dragon-like mutation, the first sentence he said was: “This broken arm of mine is thanks to you, neither Black Flood Dragon Corpse Blood nor Dragon Pattern Ring can make it regrow.”
At that time, Li Weiyi guessed that his mutation into a demon must have been helped by the Dragon Pattern Ring.
In the afternoon, when Experimenting with those two Scientific Expedition Team Members, it also confirmed his guess.
The first one didn’t wear the Dragon Pattern Ring, drank the Flood Dragon Blood, soon Skin burst open.
Finally died from excessive blood loss.
The second one wore the Dragon Pattern Ring, drank the Flood Dragon Blood, successfully survived. Then used his Blood to soak the Ring, soon began flood dragon-like mutation.
Of course, no one dared let him successfully transform into a demon, and immediately removed the Dragon Pattern Ring when it was about to succeed.
The mutation was interrupted, he died even more miserably than the first experimenter.
Flesh and Blood almost all burst open.
“No matter what, this is a way to save Senior Disciple Brother.”
Li Weiyi muttered to himself.
Nether Mist lingered.
The Tomb Sea Stele Forest in front, under the illumination of the distant Golden Crow Corpse’s glow, was serene yet eerie.
A familiar perfume scent came with the wind.
Li Weiyi’s current sense of smell, though not as exaggerated as the Ghost Bear Emperor’s, was far superior to ordinary people.
He knew who it was!
Waiting here was waiting for her.
Li Weiyi silently hid behind the massive Black Flood Dragon Corpse. Gradually, light footsteps sounded, a tall and slender figure passed behind the Black Flood Dragon Corpse, quickly heading toward the Nine-story Ship Tower.
Li Weiyi walked out from the shadows, looking over.
That familiar graceful back had already entered the Passage between the Ship Tower and the gunwale, heading toward the Stern.
On the ten-feet-wide Ship Tower Passage, there were many Stone Figurines with various expressions placed, Nether Mist pervading, adding to the terror. But Qi Shanshan was not afraid at all, shuttling freely.
On the First Layer of the Ship Tower, all Cabin doors were cast in Bronze, over ten feet high, extremely heavy, impossible to push open by human power.
Walked halfway through the Passage.
The Nether Mist gradually dissipated.
Replaced by misty, gauze-like Immortal Radiance.
This undead ghost ship-like Bronze Ship seemed to have changed, like transformed into an immortal family’s jade palace boat,
The Stern and the Bow were two completely different worlds.
