Chapter 106 That's Death
"Wait, wait... Brother, life is still beautiful. You can't keep thinking about killing yourself."
The words left his mouth, and Fang Meng was stunned for a moment. Suicide? What was that all about?
Lu Mingfei remained calm. Ordinary people are often unaware of being influenced by fate. To be honest, he sometimes speaks inexplicably.
This brings us to Zero. He has never heard Zero speak in a way that suggests he is influenced by fate. That's amazing.
However, it could also be because the other person doesn't talk much.
Ling looked at Lu Mingfei, who was staring at her, and spoke coldly.
"That's why I don't accept your bold ideas. By the way, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Oh, I just think you're so nice, even nicer than my aunt and uncle's family."
What kind of bullshit analogy is that? Do you really think everyone doesn't know what kind of extraordinary people your uncle and aunt's family are?
Ling stepped on Lu Mingfei's foot as a form of punishment.
Lu Mingfei...did not dodge.
Anyway, Zero couldn't bear to really crush him.
The exquisite leather shoes merely brushed symbolically across his feet, like a gentle breeze.
He turned to look at Fang Meng, who was standing with his arms crossed, watching the scene with a knowing smile. Fang Meng immediately coughed twice and turned to look into the distance.
"Hey, Sister Fang, how about this? To confirm if we've been affected and just kept going in circles, let's send someone forward or backward to see if we can find anyone who's still stuck in the same spot, okay?"
"Why send someone to do something that can be done simply by making a mark?"
Zero rarely showed any expression as he made a sarcastic remark, seemingly stunned by Lu Mingfei's idiotic suggestion.
"Wow! You're so thoughtful! Let's mark the way and set off! Zero, listening to you speak is like drinking fine wine!"
Lu Mingfei suddenly realized and clapped his hands. He then reached out and drew his sword, carving the words "Drinking wine, singing songs, how short is life?" on the mountain wall.
"Let's go then, Sister Fang, what's with that expression?"
Fang Meng looked at Lu Mingfei with a hint of helplessness, but simply shook his head and led the two of them forward.
She now seriously suspects that Lu Mingfei may have some intellectual disability.
After all, she said she had been lost in the mountains for a while. How could a geological prospector like her not know how to mark the way?
Why is this kid carrying a sword? Is he some kind of cosplay enthusiast?
The three of them walked in the mountains for some time.
It was basically the same loop route. When they reached the same spot for the second time, Lu Mingfei realized that they were not going around in circles in the same place.
Because his carving was gone, he even ran back quite a distance to check if his carving was still there.
The result is that it's still there; it wasn't erased by anyone or anything.
"Uh... what kind of weird place is this?"
Setting off again, Lu Mingfei still carried Ling on his back. Ling seemed quite satisfied with his mount and kept asking him to carry her.
Lu Mingfei just hoped that she wouldn't make that request when they went back to school. Although he felt it didn't really matter, it was still too awkward.
"We've been walking for an hour, and we've been going uphill the whole time. Judging by our pace, we've covered four kilometers and gained nearly three hundred meters in altitude."
Ling spoke calmly, then turned to look beyond the cliff, at the mountains and forests, where the lush leaves reflected the sunlight, shimmering in the breeze.
The sun is currently rising towards noon, signaling to people that it's time for lunch.
"But looking outwards, the altitude of our location hasn't changed, so going uphill might be a mistake."
"Wow! Little sister, your eyesight and calculation skills are pretty good. Are you interested... ah, never mind."
""
Fang Meng had originally intended to ask if he was interested in studying geology, but decided against it.
She pulled out a device... well, the kind that Lu Mingfei didn't recognize.
He barely spoke during the entire journey.
On one hand, Fang Meng was very talkative and didn't stop talking at all. Lu Mingfei had already heard about her background, her boyfriend in college, and even the fact that her best friend's younger brother had his dog neutered.
And they got there smoothly all the way, how terrifying!
On the other hand, he has no opportunity to use his abilities.
Jumping off the cliff is not allowed. Whether climbing in a straight line or running fast, these two people can't keep up. His most proud, top-notch sense of direction is also rendered speechless by this mountain path that leads nowhere.
Then what else is there to say? Just leave it running.
If Zero hadn't mentioned they'd been walking for an hour, Lu Mingfei wouldn't have realized it; he was too busy idling.
He even started rehearsing his own little drama in his mind.
The idea of a dragon king returning is a typical teenage fantasy, where the protagonist imagines that if he could travel back in time, he would be able to save Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao's lives.
...Well, the impact of the Twisted Three Kingdoms on him was still too severe.
Just as Lu Mingfei was idling and lost in thought, Fang Meng finally finished adjusting the instrument and looked at the data on it before speaking.
"My prediction was right. Although our location looks the same, it has actually changed. Over this period of walking, our altitude has increased by... one meter."
Lu Mingfei found it difficult to hold on.
"Based on my visual estimation, we're still about 300 meters from the summit, which means it will take us 300 hours to reach it?"
"Oh my god! That's just...!"
"
"Nearly thirteen days."
Zero, positioned on Lu Mingfei's back, timely provided Lu Mingfei with the time he hadn't been able to calculate.
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei's expression turned serious.
It wasn't because Zero stole his thunder through computational power, but rather...
"Someone is coming."
Everyone instantly became alert. Fang Meng gripped the geological hammer tightly, while Ling climbed off Lu Mingfei's back and gripped the dagger in his hand.
However, because of her figure, the dagger looks a bit like a short knife.
The footsteps were disordered and light, about four people... four people?
"Hey! You three, can I borrow some money?"
"Shoo-One"
Before he could finish speaking, a long sword appeared on the leader of the thugs' heads.
Is he dead? He should be dead.
Well.
Lu Mingfei caught the Hentian Sword, which had fallen as the thugs turned into mist, and frowned.
Is the will of Heaven really that low-class? Even if it doesn't involve a super-grand spectacle like a flood, fire, or meteor shower, it shouldn't just produce some petty thugs, it should at least include some highway robbery.
Lu Mingfei raised his eyes, and the remaining thugs, who hadn't even had time to react, were so terrified that they scattered and fled in an instant.
Yes, that makes sense. After the leader was killed, the rest of the men ran away immediately, which fits the situation of the battle in Twisted Three Kingdoms.
Zero glanced at Lu Mingfei, who was deep in thought. The other man definitely knew something she didn't, even though Zero also acted as if she knew everything—
"BOOM!!!"
Lu Mingfei looked up; the ground was shaking, but the shaking was peculiar, like the vibration of a large vehicle passing by...
Without needing to think further, Lu Mingfei had already seen what caused the tremor.
A spherical boulder was hurtling towards them!
