Chapter 39 Li Wu’s Journey to the Illusion (2)

 The next morning, Li Wu woke up.

After he came to the wellhead to wash up, he carried his big basket on his back.

"Dad, I will go to the mine and move the mountain first today."

Mr. Li waved his hand: "Go ahead, go ahead."

He still wants to try his luck in Yigu again.

Li Wu's mother took out two pancakes and said, "Ah Wu, don't forget breakfast, and be careful on the road."

"Yeah, I got it."

Li Wu took the pancake and walked towards the foot of the mountain where he had been mining.

After Li Wu left, his mother looked at Mr. Li and asked, "Did we have a fight?"

Leader Li replied: "It's not really a quarrel, it's just some disagreements."

Seeing Li Wu's choice today, his mother could probably guess what was going on.

She said: "Awu's advantage is that he is down-to-earth, which is very good."

Leader Li said dullly: "That's why I didn't stop him. Anyway, I'll try there again today. If there really is no Feiyu, then I'll go back to the foot of the mountain."

"Hmm."

The so-called foot of the mountain refers to the foot of Mine Mountain not far from the town. It is rich in minerals. Although it only produces ordinary minerals that are not precious, it is enough to support a land.

Kuangyishan is closer to the town than Yigu, but the routes between the two places are different. When Li Wu came to the foot of Kuangyishan, there was no one else there except him.

Everyone went to Yigu, dreaming of picking Fei Jade.

This is understandable. Li Wu can understand it, but he doesn’t like doing it himself.

He walked into the mine and headed deeper.

This mine has been mined for so long, and I don’t know how much minerals are left.

Li Wu doesn't care much about this. He is a spiritual cultivator, and his goal is to practice.

Now he is just coming back to help his parents with some work during the holidays. After this period of time is over, he will go back to Qifeng University.

Nangong Yao has broken through to the spiritual path, and he also wants to try not to be left behind.

With this idea in mind, Li Wu came to one end of the mine, where there were many ores that no one had collected on the ground.

"Obviously there are a lot of ores here, but everyone just wants to gamble on a piece of crimson jade that doesn't even exist."

Li Wu let out a deep breath. He actually did not agree with that choice. He even suspected that the rumor that Yigu had Feiyu was false.

Growing up here, he had never heard of Feiyu in Yigu.

While collecting ore and thinking, Li Wu suddenly heard a slight whine.

"Woo...wuwuwu..."

It seemed like a woman's sobs, with a touch of gentleness and grace.

Li Wu raised his head in confusion, put the hoe on his shoulder and walked out.

There are countless intersections in the mine, and the roads inside are crisscrossed and very complicated.

Li Wu listened carefully to the tiny sobbing sound, and relied on the warrior's perception to accurately determine the source of the sound.

As he walked through a fork in the road, the cry became clearer and clearer, until at a certain moment, the cry seemed to be right next to his ears.

Li Wu came to the corner and turned around.

"Ah!"

The cries turned into screams, and a delicate figure kicked its feet and shrank back.

Li Wu was also almost startled by the scream. He lowered his gaze and was slightly startled after seeing the woman's face clearly: "Li Shuang? Why are you here?"

The woman named Li Shuang raised her head when she heard the other party calling her name and expressed doubts.

It was a little dark in the mine, and she stared intently for a while before she gradually figured out who was coming.

"Li...Li Wu?"

Li Wu looked around for a while and found that Li Shuang was the only one around. He asked:

"Why are you here?"

"Why are you here?"

Li Shuang asked the same question as him.

Li Wu was stunned for a moment and said matter-of-factly: "I'm here to mine."

Li Shuang had just cried, and her tone was still choked: "But...but, didn't you all go to Yigu?"

Li Wu grabbed the rattan of the basket and shook it upward: "Oh! My father and others went, but I didn't go. What about you, why are you here?"

Li Shuang hesitated for a moment and whispered: "I...I escaped."

"Escape?"

"I...my father wants to marry me to the city, but I...I don't want to go."

Li Wu suddenly realized that he quickly remembered what his father had said yesterday about the noble man from the city government who had fallen in love with Li Shuang. Was it probably because of this that she ran away?

"If you don't want to go, don't go. Why run away?"

Li Wu asked directly. He often thinks about things in a one-sided way, and being emotional is not his style.

Li Shuang explained: "I said it, but...my father said that the other party was rich and powerful, so he had to agree."

"Why can't someone with money and power refuse to agree? Does the other party still dare to rob a civilian girl?"

Although their town is somewhat backward in development, it still knows how to use the Internet to protect rights. Especially after the emergence of Li Wu, a talented spiritual cultivator, the entire town has also gained a certain amount of attention.

Tianling Continent is a relatively peaceful world. Li Shuang's father's worries cannot be said to be unnecessary, but they are not to the point where he has no choice.

Li Shuang hugged her legs and sat on the ore ground with her head lowered.

"Gululu..."

A strange sound sounded, and Li Shuang's face immediately turned red.

"Well...I'm sorry, I..."

Li Shuang wanted to explain, but when she looked up, she saw Li Wu directly handing over two pancakes.

"Eat it if it's clean."

The pancakes are packed with clean white cloth and are not dirty.

Li Shuang looked at the pancakes in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "What about you?"

"Me? I am a spiritual cultivator. If I don't eat or drink for a month, nothing will happen."

"It's so good." Li Shuang's eyes were full of envy, and she reached out to take the pancake handed to her by Li Wu and started to nibble on it.

"Li Wu, thank you."

Li Wu shook his head and walked out with the hoe.

"You...where are you going?"

Li Shuang looked at him and asked anxiously.

Li Wu pointed to the basket on his back: "I still want to continue mining."

He doesn't care about the income from mining, but he will feel uncomfortable if he is idle and doesn't do anything.

Li Shuang thought for a while and asked: "Then... then I will go with you!"

Li Wu looked at Li Shuang's thin arms and legs, and shook his head seriously: "You can't do it, you don't even have the strength."

Li Shuang's face turned red again: "Then...then I'll help you look out for you!"

"Lookout?"

"Hmm."

Li Wu scratched his head and thought that he was a miner and not a thief, so why did he need someone to look after him?

But judging from Li Shuang's reaction, she should be planning to follow her, so just follow her.

Li Wu said nothing more and walked towards the mining site with the bamboo basket on his back.

Arriving at the deep mining site, Li Wu excavated the iron ore with hoe after hoe, but not a drop of sweat fell from his body.

Li Shuang looked at him working hard to dig and asked: "Well, aren't you a spiritual cultivator? Why do you still dig with a hoe?"

"This, I'm used to it."

Li Wu has been mining with his father since he was a child, and he developed these muscles at that time, which made his body look a bit majestic later on.

Li Shuang nodded and sat aside obediently. The whole cave echoed with the sound of Li Wu's mining.

After listening to these crisp sounds for a long time, Li Shuang felt a little bored.

So she spoke again: "Li Wu, when do you want to pick it?"

Li Wu pointed at the basket and said, "When it's full, leave."

He does not mine for money, so there is no requirement in terms of quantity.

"Um...will you come over tomorrow?"

Li Wu nodded: "Of course I will come."

After saying that, he paused for a moment, then his mind immediately reacted, and he asked in surprise: "You don't plan to stay here forever, do you?"

Li Shuang nodded, with seriousness written all over her face: "Yes! I will go back when my father agrees not to marry me off one day!"

"Then where do you sleep and what do you eat?"

Li Shuang pointed to the tunnel next to her: "There are many empty sheds here where you can rest. As for food... you, can you bring some to me? I promise to return it to you when I get back!"

Li Wu thought for a while and said tentatively: "I can bring food, but what else will you do? For example... take a bath or something?"

Li Shuang's pretty face flushed red, she immediately crossed her arms and looked at Li Wu warily: "You...what do you want to do!"

Li Wu waved his hand quickly: "Don't misunderstand me, don't misunderstand me! I have no other meaning!"

In fact, what he really wanted to ask was how to solve the problem of the other party's metabolism, but when he started talking, he felt that something was wrong. The other party was a girl after all, so he changed it to taking a bath.

Li Wu looked at Li Shuang, whose pretty face was red and full of shame and anger, and touched his head with a headache.

"I'll leave these things to you."

He took out a bunch of daily necessities from the storage ring and placed them in front of Li Shuang.

Li Shuang looked at the basically complete items on the ground, and the blush on her face dissipated a bit.

"Thank...thank you."

Li Wu shook his head and continued his mining journey.

He was not digging quickly, but was enjoying the labor process more. When the bamboo basket was full, it was already afternoon.

"I'm going back."

Out of respect for Li Shuang, Li Wu still said hello to Li Shuang before leaving.

Li Shuang, who was as sleepy as a chicken pecking at rice, immediately raised his head, regained his energy and said: "You...are you leaving now?"

"Yeah. I've put your things over there for you, and there's also food."

"Oh! Thank you!"

Li Wu picked up the basket and walked outside. Li Shuang looked at his back and suddenly shouted: "Li...Li Wu!"

Li Wu looked back blankly.

"Don't tell others, I'm hiding here."

"Oh, I got it."

Li Wu left the cave.

Li Shuang sat alone in the mountain tunnel. It was peaceful inside, not even the sound of wind.

She hugged her arms with some fear and hurriedly hid in the shed.

……

Outside, every audience is watching the stories of these players. Because everyone has different personalities and genders, the direction in the fantasy is also different.

Some were women and had stronger personalities, so they went directly to Li Shuang's house to make decisions for Li Shuang.

Some of them were kind and gentle, so they decided to stay and spend the night with Li Shuang.

Some people have complex thoughts and worry about whether there is fraud, so they do everything carefully.

Different choices, the test of human nature is that there is no absolute right or wrong. No one can say how to choose, and they are not sure what they would do if it were themselves.

The red bar on the screen is still changing. According to the rules of the competition, the green energy bar can not only come from the overall judgment of the secret realm, but also change due to the impression of the people in the fantasy realm on the people who have experienced the fantasy realm.

In the current competition situation, Li Wu's green strip is ranked third.

Sikong Jun looked at such a unique competition format and said: "It seems that each team has selected the best people to participate in this competition, and the gap between them is not big."

No team dares to deal with a competition like this that tests human nature casually, because a bad mistake may not only cause the death of the contestant, but may also affect the reputation of the entire school.

Therefore, these players were chosen after careful consideration. In the fantasy world, their choices may be different, but at least no one has done anything illegal or immoral.

Nangong Yao echoed: "Everyone's choices have their own reasons. From God's perspective, it's hard to say who is right and who is wrong. However, different coping methods should affect the emotions of people around you."

This is what the Soul-Living Illusion does well. The outcome is not only affected by the subjective judgment of the Heavenly Spirit Alliance referee, but also takes into account the feelings of other people in the illusion.

Many times, a good ending does not necessarily mean the right one, and the process is also very important.

Yun Xi watched the game carefully, thinking that Li Shuang did look a bit handsome, and she didn't know who he was based on.

‘Huh? Why should I pay attention to this?’

The timeline in the illusion passes very quickly, and ordinary people cannot see through these fleeting scenes. Only those heaven-level warriors and spiritual practitioners can carefully observe the changes in the situation by converging spiritual power into their eyes.<

……

When Li Wu returned home, he saw the setting sun and his father returning from the setting sun.

On his back is an empty basket.

Li Wu thought that his father should give up now!

He stepped forward, ready to help his father take the basket and persuade him again, but before he could speak, Boss Li excitedly said loudly: "Awu! There is Feiyu! There is Feiyu!"<

/p>

"Li Genbao from the village dug up a piece of Feiyu the size of a fingernail today! We all saw it with our own eyes! There is Feiyu in Yigu! There really is Feiyu!"

Li Wu looked at his father who was so excited that he couldn't control himself. He swallowed the words he was about to say.

He asked: "Dad, will you tomorrow..."

"Awu! You might as well go over there with dad tomorrow. Others can dig up Feiyu, but there's no reason why we, father and son, can't!"

Mr. Li's face turned red and his mood seemed a little abnormal.

Li Wu felt his throat was suddenly choked.

‘What to do?’

He was suddenly confused.

"What's wrong? Are you so happy?"

At the critical moment, Li Wu's mother walked out of the house and looked at the blushing Mr. Li and asked.

Leader Li said excitedly: "Feiyu was found in Yigu. Li Genbao from the village dug up a piece the size of a fingernail!"

Li Wu's mother said helplessly: "Seeing you so happy, I thought you picked it! Why are you so excited when someone else picks Fei Jade?"

Leader Li chuckled: "Doesn't this prove that there is Feiyu in Yigu and it's not a rumor? I will go with Awu tomorrow and we will definitely be able to dig up Feiyu."

"Why are we going together? Ah Wu is going to the city to buy some cloth for me tomorrow, but I don't have time to go with you."

"Really? Then I can go by myself, it's okay!"

Mr. Li was very excited, and without asking Li Wu, he walked home carrying an empty basket.

Li Wu looked at his mother with wide eyes, and saw his mother holding out her index finger, making a "silence" gesture, and smiling lovingly at him.

The next moment, Li Wu also laughed.
