C693 Excessive Amnesia(last Part)
The dark clouds that had gathered in the sky finally slowly scattered and the electric snake light arcing in the sky also gradually disappeared. Everything happened so suddenly and disappeared so abruptly that no one could understand it. They could only sigh at the immeasurable might of nature.
The interior of the house was a mess as well. There was the greyish gray color of broken green bricks everywhere. The complicated talismans and diagrams that were drawn on the floor tiles earlier had now completely disappeared.
Lin Bai's body fell limply to the ground as his eyes slightly narrowed, his lips continuously moved, his chest continuously twitched like a bellows, and the cold sweat on his forehead continued to flow like rain. His white clothes were completely drenched in sweat and stuck tightly to his body, making him look as desolate as when he had just been rescued.
"Youngest junior brother, are you alright?" Upon seeing this, Zhang SanKuang quickly walked to Lin Bai's side and softly asked as he reached out to help him up.
Lin Bai was just about to open his mouth, but just as his lips opened, he felt an earth-shattering depression gush up from within his chest and the sweet smell in his throat became even stronger. He turned his head and spat out another two mouthfuls of thick, black, fishy blood, and with great difficulty, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Get me out of here, this room is too stuffy …" After taking a few breaths, Lin Bai could feel that the air in the room was filled with dust, making it extremely heavy.
The evil Yin Qi was completely devoured by the Obsidian Stone in the building, and the violent Five Elements Qi and Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi produced by Lin Bai in the fight against the Heavenly Dao were completely eliminated. A heavy downpour fell from the sky, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi contained in the rain replenished the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, which was almost completely used up.
The wind in the lake was cool to begin with, and it was raining heavily outside. Standing outside, there was a faint chill in the air. It made people think of the Song poem about the warm season when it was still cold. The dense raindrops splashed against the five-kilometer-wide pond on the surface of the lake. Although the sound was heavy, it was like a lullaby that could calm one's mind.
"It's too cold outside, why don't you go in, Lin Bai?" Chen Baian looked at Lin Bai who was gasping for breath, afraid that Lin Bai would catch a cold under the heavy rain.
Lin Bai shook his head slightly, then forced himself to walk towards the curtain of rain. Cold wind blew, and dense drops of rain fell on Lin Bai's face. This chill that he had not felt in a long time forced him to open his arms, as if he wanted to expose everything about himself to the world.
As the Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth calmed down, the droplets of rain became increasingly smaller. After being washed by the continuous torrential rain, Lin Bai's originally rapid breathing calmed down as well. He seemed to fall asleep as he stood there motionlessly.
He breathed in the fresh air after the rain, exhaling the turbid air in his chest, letting the mana, which he hadn't had in a long time, circulate in a large and small cycle, and even opened up all the pores of his body. He greedily breathed in the heaven and earth origin energy that he had not seen in a long time, nourishing the dried meridians in his body, as well as the wounds he had suffered just now when he absorbed Taiji's power into his body.
After the rain, the night sky was exceptionally beautiful with bright stars everywhere. The bright moon was like a jade plate hanging in the sky. The holy beauty made people unconsciously feel relaxed and happy.
Because of the utility of the structure by the Lake of Mos, the Yin energy in Jinling City had finally calmed down, and all of the phenomena had completely disappeared. Police and soldiers took to the streets, busily patrolling the streets to appease those who were frightened by the sudden exodus.
On the streets of the Confucius Temple, the river was looking at everything in the sky and gradually returning to the bustling streets. There was a feeling in his heart that he did not know how to express — everything that happened last night was still etched into his memory like a knife cutting him. He did not dare to imagine, if it were not for Lin Bai, what would Jinling be like now?
"Mayor Jiang, what are you looking at? Point out for us to see …" After a night of contact, the laborers' understanding of the officials had been refreshed. They had clearly calculated Mayor Jiang's character, so when they noticed the river current staring at the sky with rapt attention, they couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Jiang Liu chuckled and shook his head, putting all these thoughts to the back of his mind. He glanced at the people behind him and laughed, "The night market should be opening soon! "Let's go, I'll bring everyone to drink. We won't leave until we're drunk tonight!"
"Alright, since Mayor Jiang has said so, then we'll have a good time with you!" When they heard that Jiang Liu wanted to treat them to wine, their eyes lit up. It was not that they had never interacted with government agencies before, but they had never seen such approachable officials, especially the oldest of a city like Jiang Liu.
The chirping of cicadas increased the serenity of the night. The fragrance of lotus flowers wafted into the noses of the crowd, causing them to feel an indescribable sense of comfort in their hearts.
Lin Bai's eyes finally opened, and a bright light shone from within them. Although the light was fleeting, it still left Chen Baian and the others bewildered. In addition, they felt that the Lin Bai standing in front of them now had a strange feeling about him, as if he was one with the world around him, making it impossible for them to see through him.
"Lin Bai, has the emotional tribulation been completely exterminated?" Chen Baian asked after hesitating for a moment and glancing at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai nodded his head and smiled, "There are two fellow Senior Brothers. Brother Shen and Old Master, if you were to make a move, it would be easy for us to deal with the evils. Even if the Heavenly Dao were to personally come, there would be no return!"
"Ugh, enough of that blabbermouth of yours! Weren't we supposed to follow your plan? If I had the ability, I would've gone to heaven to catch a turtle in the sea and have the free time to bullsh * t with you … However, do you feel that there is anything strange in your body, such as feeling no emotions? "
Although Chen Baian was still happy to see Lin Bai full of vigor and vigor, he felt a chill down his spine as he recalled Lin Bai's earlier words: 'I've forgotten everything'. The meaning behind this widespread saying was that a Saint would not be moved by his emotions. If this boy could easily clean up and become a cold-blooded, heartless person, then wouldn't that be more than worth it?
"Lordmaster, you must be thinking about the ungrateful words I just recited?" Lin Bai laughed when he heard that, shook his head, and said, "It's too ungrateful. However, the love bell is in my generation. Elder Chen, do you think I should forget my emotions, or forget my emotions? "
"Haha, kid, you even know how to fight! I have forgotten this love very well! " Chen Baian looked at Lin Bai's mischievous expression. Although he felt embarrassed that he had been ridiculed by a junior, he still shamelessly pretended to be righteous.
From Lin Bai's words, he could already understand the meaning behind Lin Bai's earlier words. At this time, the unforgettable feeling was not really unforgettable. It was just like the famous poem Tao Yuanming had sung, 'There is true meaning in this, one can discern and forget the words'. 'Forgotten speech was not really unforgettable words, but just a silent experience that could not be expressed by words.
And the same is true for the so-called 'unfeeling'. The so-called emotionless actually has feelings, but feelings are not tied to them, they are not tied to them, and they are disposed of in a cool and refined way, like the silent and unmoved, like those who forget.
"No matter what, I have obtained a great opportunity this time!" "Although the previous trial was quite painful, after it was over, I broke a barrier. My dao heart became clearer and my mana became purer as well. If I were to use it, it would be much smoother than usual!" Lin Bai stretched his neck, and then the bones in his entire body creaked as he spoke in a clear voice.
This feeling of regaining what he had lost and being filled with strength again felt too great! It was like someone who won five million but couldn't find the lottery and was looking for nothing, only to find that the lottery ticket was right in front of him. Moreover, this kind of ups and downs, call it a clear mind, relaxed and unrestrained.
"If that's the case, then that's for the best. Let's take advantage of this opportunity and properly fight with that group of people!" After having suffered so much from them, if you don't return their color, how can you feel at ease! " Although Chen Baian was old, he was in fact a very good fighter. After being tormented by Sun Xingyan and the others several times, if he didn't take revenge, how could his heart be at ease?
"Elder Chen is right. They have cheated us so many times, and they have made so much trouble for our youngest junior brother. If we do not take care of them, we will not be able to live up to our old saying!"
"You're right, we have been enduring these people for too long! "The situation in Yan Jing must be caused by these people. If we don't quickly get it over with, who knows what kind of trouble they will cause!" In recent days, everyone has been holding back their anger. Even the usually gentle Shen Lingfeng came to a deep understanding when he heard this.
Even so, there was still some hesitation on their faces. After all, reversing the five elements wasn't an ordinary array formation. This array formation condensed the power of the world and changed the five elements. The person who laid down this array formation must have expended a great deal of effort! Not only did Lin Bai and the rest want to break the formation, they also wanted to use the formation to sneak back and forth. Wasn't that easier said than done?!
"Then let's prepare to start!" Lin Bai clenched his fist, and his joints creaked. His eyes were filled with an unswerving determination.
To Lin Bai, as long as his emotional tribulation was dispelled and his mana recovered, nothing would be of importance! To be honest, he really didn't care about anything that happened in Yan Jing. If it really wasn't possible, he would just go over by himself. How many people could he not be able to save with just his own martial arts?
