Chapter 834: 504, very dangerous
After returning this time, Qing Chen immediately set about executing his plan.
So he had no time to bid an emotional farewell to the Daytime Members one by one, nor did he have time to explain everything clearly.
But he knew that someone would be waiting for him to return, so he would live to return.
The wind at the top of the mountain was fierce.
It blew the snow from the north slope across the ridge, falling softly on the south slope.
When the snowflakes flew over the ridge and fell, it looked like a spectacular icy waterfall.
Jinguji Maki curled up at the top of Mount Okuhotaka, watching Qing Chen rush down the ridge again and again, falling, and then carrying his mountain bike back up.
She had lost count of how many times Qing Chen had failed.
At some moment, it even overturned her cognition, realizing that when a person pursues his goal, he can be this persistent.
However, what she didn’t know was that Qing Chen was even enjoying these repeated failures.
Qing Chen climbed up to a certain ridge again, carrying his mountain bike and quietly gazing at the distant sunset.
In the past, his life-and-death training had always been completed in the Mysterious World where he convinced others by virtue.
This was what differentiated this time from before.
In the past, even if he fell off a cliff, he wouldn’t die.
Even if he fell a thousand times, no matter how real the sensation of death, Qing Chen knew he wouldn’t actually die.
So at that time, he gradually lost his reverence for life and death.
A Knight without reverence for life and death is not a Knight.
This time it was different. He hadn’t yet unfolded the Reverse Breathing Technique, and the training was already nearly fatal.
If he were to unfold the Reverse Breathing Technique during the real challenge, a fall would be a true fall, and even if he forced a reversal of the breathing technique, he would never progress again in this lifetime.
This made Qing Chen cherish each training session even more.
But the problem was that every time he rushed down the steep ridge, dancing on the edge of the blade, his eyes looking at the abyss beside him would cause his heart to palpitate.
It was the innate human fear. Once tangled by the emotion of fear, he would no longer be so decisive.
Qing Chen knew that what he needed to overcome was this emotion.
So, he bore the injuries again and again, enduring the pain, letting the pain cut through the fear like a knife.
However, something strange happened. When the Knight Vital Energy in his body turned into a liquid state.
Every time he challenged a life-and-death gate, he could feel a surging force circulating within his body.
No Knight had ever encountered such a situation.
Just like Ren He opening the path of the Knights and Qin Sheng creating the Breathing Technique, the roads they took were paths no one had walked before, so there was no reference.
Qing Chen was the same now.
No Knight had true Knight Vital Energy after completing the first life-and-death gate.
No Knight knew what would happen after the Knight Vital Energy liquefied.
When Qing Chen rushed down the ridge again and again, he could feel the liquefied Knight Vital Energy, like tides pulled by the moon, being drawn, stirred, and surged by some force.
Qing Chen didn’t know what would ultimately happen.
But he knew that if he could complete the life-and-death gate challenge this time, there would definitely be an answer.
From morning till night.
Qing Chen carried his mountain bike slowly up Mount Okuhotaka, looking at Jinguji Maki, said: “Let’s go, to the visitor service center to rest.”
Seeing the mountaineering suit on Qing Chen was torn into strips by the rocks, seeing the old wounds on Qing Chen’s body also cracked open, Jinguji Maki was stunned.
It was just seven days after returning; the injuries Qing Chen sustained in the Inner World had not healed, making it look exceptionally tragic now.
She walked over in a daze and grabbed Qing Chen’s sleeve, watching as the blood slowly dripped from the sleeve: “Onii-chan, why don’t you apply the ointment to yourself?”
Qing Chen said seriously: “I used it all on you, I don’t have any left for myself.”
The little girl who had held back her tears in the morning now burst into tears: “What should we do then?!”
But at this moment, Qing Chen looked at the distant visitor service center and stopped.
The visitor center was pitch black, the neon signs that should have been lit at night were all off.
Qing Chen did not approach further but turned on his phone and sent a message: “What happened.”
The Outer World Division 1 sent a message: “Everyone in Shirakawa Village has been captured by the Mysterious Business Department. They found no trace of you outside Shirakawa Village, so they returned to investigate the entire Shirakawa Village again. Now, the Mysterious Business Department suspects that someone is harboring you and is preparing to conduct a concentrated interrogation of the village residents.”
Qing Chen was stunned, realizing that it wasn’t someone who betrayed their trail.
At least those two old men did not betray them; otherwise, the Mysterious Business Department would have already come up the mountain to apprehend them.
Qing Chen didn’t ask any more questions, calmly leading the little girl into the visitor service center.
When they came to the outdoor equipment section, he paused, just because in the place where they usually set up their tent, there were two boxed lunches.
A note was attached to the lunch box: There is a microwave in the store area, just heat it yourself.
It turned out those old men had worked here for decades and were as familiar with the place as if it was their own home. They could immediately notice if anything was missing.
They had already known that Qing Chen and Jinguji Maki were hiding there.
Qing Chen thought about it for a moment, calmly carrying the two boxed lunches to the microwave to heat them, then sat cross-legged on the ground with Jinguji Maki and cleaned out the boxed lunches together.
While eating, he seemed to be contemplating something.
Jinguji Maki looked at the lunch box in his hand: “Onii-chan, why do you always eat so cleanly?”
Qing Chen put down the lunch box and said: “To remind myself of certain things.”
“Oh,” the little girl lowered her head and imitated, eating every grain of rice clean.
Qing Chen looked at the dark visitor service center, suddenly remembering what his mentor, Uncle Li Dong, had told him in front of the big willow tree in Taboo Land No. 002: You still lack an opportunity.
He thought about the miserable situation his mentor put him in at that time, remembered the Knight Organization’s tradition of pitting apprentices, and suddenly couldn’t help but chuckle.
Jinguji Maki was stunned, as if it was the first time she had seen this brother smile.
Qing Chen stood up and said: “Let’s go, take you back to Shirakawa Village.”
“Huh?” Jinguji Maki was puzzled: “Aren’t we supposed to hide from the bad guys?”
Qing Chen rubbed her little head and smiled: “No more hiding.”
“Why?” The little girl was extremely curious.
Qing Chen calmly said: “Making you suffer so much to walk this path, and more suffering in the future. Given that, as a teacher, I must tell you where this path leads and what kind of life it means.”
“Will there be danger?” The little girl asked.
“Yes, it will be very dangerous for them.”
