Chapter Fifty-Three: Refinement of the Heart is Refinement of Action
Hao Qi was one step late, and he was unable to save the heroine intact. At the same time, his appearance caused all five god hands to take action, so that he was hurt by himself. Thanks to the skeleton knight who followed him, he seemed to be very familiar with these god hands. Finally, he relied on it to lead Hao Qi and the male and female protagonists away from the erosion, allowing them to return to the material world.
Then……
Five days later...
Hao Qi followed the comic male protagonist Gus to a place where a boy brought them. The boy was also Gus's partner. He was the mercenary group where Gus and the hero who turned into the hand of gods were once located, and one of the members of the Eagle Group. With the help of this boy, Gus and the unconscious heroine Casca temporarily stayed here, in an abandoned mine.
A day ago, the fourth day after the eclipse, Gus and Casca both woke up. To be precise, Casca woke up first, and Gus woke up later, and then scenes in the comics happened. For example, Casca saw too much horror in the eclipse and saw that her friends died miserably. In the end, she was raped by the most trusted team leader in front of her beloved man. All these things made her collapse and go crazy.
Gus could not bear these things and rushed into the wilderness of the night, where he was attacked by countless ghosts and ghosts, and the Skeleton Knight who had been guarding nearby these days also appeared, telling Gus that he would face such a world in the future. As a sacrifice of erosion, every drop of blood and every piece of flesh of his body would be destined to be swallowed by the existence of the dark world. If he did not want to die, he would have to struggle and fight in the dark night death.
Then something happened, such as Casca gave birth to a demon baby. After she was raped, she was polluted and eroded by the hand of god. When she saw this demon baby, Gus' first reaction was to destroy it. As a mother, Casca, even though she had already had a mental breakdown, she still instinctively protected her child. In fact, Gus also knew that the child was probably his and Casca's son. As the sunlight rose, the incomplete baby disappeared, but this was not death, but was driven into the dark layer by the sun like those ghosts.
In fact, in the past few days, Hao Qi has also had several conversations with the Skeleton Knight. The Skeleton Knight is really strange about Hao Qi's origin, because this is an existence that knocked the immortal Zuo De to the ground with his bare hands alone, and can even be said to be a complete crushing. He has never heard of such an existence, because it is the power of a pure body, not magic or similar mysterious arts. It is simply the power of a human body, but it defeats the demon and defeats the apostles. This is simply impossible.
But in fact, this happened, and it happened right in front of the Skeleton Knight, so it is impossible for the Skeleton Knight to say that he is not curious. He may even have many other ideas. Unfortunately, Hao Qi did not explain or introduce it, and Hao Qi was even silent when he was facing the Skeleton Knight.
That's right, Hao Qi is actually more curious than the Skeleton Knight. When he read this comic, he had too many doubts and had unsolved questions, such as what is the Hand of God, what is the Abyss, the grudge between the Skeleton Knight and the Hand of God, lasted for a thousand years. Who was he a thousand years ago? Is it the existence called Overlord in this world? And so on, these are all Hao Qi's doubts.
But he also remembered his plan to come here. He was here to refine his mind and practice, not to solve any puzzles, solve any worldview, or complete any tasks. Repeat again. He was not passing through infinite flow, but he just came to this world to practice later.
And his direction and goal of cultivation are... Gus!
Another weak person, another man who practices the way of the weak, and then his mind is no longer tempered into steel by the way of the weak and this cruel reality, but has been tempered thousands, ten thousand, ten thousand, and million, and finally turned into an existence that is more exaggerated than diamonds. Such a powerful mind is truly the only one that Hao Qi saw in his life.
Therefore, Hao Qi did not intend to get in touch with the plot too deeply, or explore the plot. He planned to follow Gus all the way and temper his heart all the way. Similarly, he also wanted to help Gus, a man who clearly has a far greater power than the will of the gods, but lacks key power. Heaven is healthy, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement. This range of self-improvement also includes strength. It does not mean that the weak have to give up their power. These are two different things.
Therefore, Hao Qi did not participate in the communication between Skeleton Knight and Gus. Even the departure of Skeleton Knight, he did not see him off or talk. Everything was waiting for the fifth day after Gus calmed down before he appeared in front of Gus.
"Gus, he is the other person who saved you and Casga, with the uncle skeleton." The boy Rickett immediately said to Gus who was on guard when he saw Hao Qi's arrival.
Gus was waving a huge two-handed sword at this moment. In the erosion, one of his arms and one of his eyes was lost. It had only been five days since the erosion. Even though his body was a Vajra, he was still weaker than an ordinary person at this time, but he was already waving the two-handed sword and began to exercise his martial arts.
Hearing Rickett's words, Gus slightly lowered the tip of the sword facing Hao Qi, but his arm was still tightly clenched with the hilt of the sword without any slack. Hao Qi was fine. He hugged and said, "Hao Qi, I was just right at that time, so I don't need to say anything about helping you."
During the eclipse, when Hao Qi appeared, Gus and Casca had already fallen into a coma. When Hao Qi and the Skeleton Knight broke through the eclipse together, the boy Rickett only saw them rescue Gus and Casca, so he was not clear about what Hao Qi did. No matter how he looked at it, he was actually an ordinary person, and Gus himself was the top warrior among ordinary people. He even exaggerated to the extent that he relied on the power of mortals to kill extraordinary existences. Although it depends on equipment, strategy, and even sacrifice and hard work, this is an exaggeration. It can be said that he is the strongest existence among ordinary humans in this world. If he can match him, it is estimated that this world will not exceed one-handed number.
Because Gus is such a warrior, he does not think that Hao Qi can do anything in that erosion. After all, even the strongest warrior like him is powerless. Although he is not an ant, he is similar to an ant in the evil group of erosion. How strong can Hao Qi, who is also an ordinary person, be? Perhaps Hao Qi is just a person saved by the Skeleton Knight, which also makes Gus extremely cold to Hao Qi. This is his view of life since he grew up to this day. It is not his own business and will not care about you if you kill and set fire. Although after joining the Eagle Group, he found family affection and friendship, and love was slightly better, but under the terrifying destruction of this erosion, especially after a few days after this erosion, he absolutely cannot be friendly to strangers.
Gus looked at Hao Qi coldly and said, "What's the matter with you? Just leave if you have nothing to do. No one is welcome here, and this is not a place for ordinary people to stay."
"Are the ghosts and those souls?" Hao Qi was not angry. He had read the comics and knew what kind of person Gus was. He actually had a very kind side in his heart and a gentle side. It was just that his outlook on life, values, and worldview were educated and experienced since childhood. To put it bluntly, if there were ten people who had died seven, two of them crazy, and one became a murderer, this was normal. And if Gus was so self-improvement like Gus and there was gentleness and kindness in his heart, it really showed Gus's human heart.
Gus' eyes sharpened and stared at Hao Qi and said, "What the Skeleton Knight told you? This is not a world you can participate in. Now, go immediately!"
Hao Qi ignored Gus and said to himself: "I am here to practice... Don't be angry first, give me some time, I finished it soon. I just said that I am here to practice. I am a martial artist, martial arts, martial arts, martial arts, and martial arts. Because of some things, I was forced into a desperate situation and was almost completely annihilated. However, after finally having this turning point, this turning point is practice. Cultivating my soul, my mind is not yet perfect, and there is even a huge gap between perfection. So I want to follow you, experience the changes in your state of mind along the way, and feel everything in this world, so as to temper my heart. Refining the mind is to practice action. If there is no action, you can't refine your mind at all just sitting somewhere. This is what I want to say."
"It's over!"
Gus took a sudden step forward. He was a warrior who was neutral to mortals. His combat experience and combat skills were already superb among mortals. This step forward was not far or near, and his speed was just the moment when Hao Qi was breathing. Then the giant sword in his hands slashed in the air, as if he was about to cut Hao Qi into two sections.
But Hao Qi could see that even if he did nothing in this sword, he just stood there, at most it would cut to the front of his nose and then land on the ground. Gus was not the kind of person who killed innocent people indiscriminately...
With a loud bang, the giant sword hit the ground. Gus looked at Hao Qi coldly and said, "You are still planning to follow me now? Maybe I will slash with another sword at any time, and this time I will never stop or deviate."
"You won't, because you're not like this, and you can't do it, because I'm not like this."
Hao Qi spread his palms, and there was a piece of metal fragment in his palm. Gus hadn't realized anything for a moment. The boy Rickite, behind him, was immediately shocked and ran to Gus, squatted down and looked at his giant sword carefully. Gus frowned and raised the giant sword. Then his face changed drastically, because the steel at the tip of his giant sword was gone at the front of his giant sword, and the tip of the sword about the size of a palm fell into the center of Hao Qi's palm at this moment.
Hao Qi then said, "It's not unpaid. You let me follow you and watch your spiritual journey, and let me follow this journey to cultivate my mind. This is a big deal for me. I have cause and effect for you. Mortals fear cause and Bodhisattvas fear fruit. It's not an exaggeration to call me a Bodhisattva in my current state, so I will teach you how to practice martial arts."
"I know what you are going to do. You want to take revenge. Similarly, you want to protect your lover. You cannot have both. So what you choose now is to take revenge. Kill the monsters in erosion one by one. You can be chased by them. You think this is the battlefield. The means of war is that you kill me, and I will kill you. You will chase them. This requires strength, the power to implement your will, your heart, and your thoughts. Similarly, the woman with a mental breakdown is your lover, you will protect her, the people here are your friends, you will also protect them, and this requires strength to protect the power of your loved ones and relatives."
"After seeing those inhuman powers, I think you must be very confused now, right? This will not depress your will, but will make your mind more tenacious. But if the mind alone does not exert the power of this mind, then this mind will be of little use, and I will give you this power."
"Practice martial arts, to avenge revenge, to protect others, and to realize your wishes, practice martial arts!!"
