NOVEL NEXT Immortal Me Can Infinitely Add Points For Myself
It was too boring in the guest room, so sometimes Chen Xia would walk around. He also told Cao Gao not to be too respectful to him to avoid exposing his identity.
Although Cao Gao nodded and agreed, the restraint in his bones could never be completely removed. However, compared to the beginning, it was definitely much better.
When they had nothing to do, the two of them would watch the starry sea from the high part of the ferry. There were some stars that Cao Gao had never seen before. They shone brightly in the distance and just flashed by.
"What's in the starry sky?" Chen Xia leaned against the railing and asked curiously.
"Opportunities and the encroachment of darkness." Cao Gao thought for a while and gave the answer in his heart while also explaining.
"You should understand opportunities. People in our line of work especially value opportunities. If we're lucky, we can really make a good profit."
"If we're unlucky, we might lose our lives. As for the encroachment of darkness, it should be something unique to the starry sky. No one can say exactly what it is. Some people guess that they are the lingering souls of the Emperors of the Heavens, which can corrode the souls of cultivators."
"There are many speculations but none confirmed. However, cultivators below the Overturning Sea Realm really can't wander freely in the starry river by themselves. If someone like me at the Mountain Moving Realm goes alone, I might go crazy in less than a year."
Chen Xia nodded. "I've felt something. It's like whispers in my ears, constantly ringing in my mind."
"How did you deal with it?" Cao Gao was a bit curious.
"Daydreaming." Chen Xia chuckled and pointed to his own head.
"As long as my mind is empty enough, it can't do anything to me."
Cao Gao was stunned for a moment and then laughed helplessly. "You're really amazing."
Suddenly, there were hurried footsteps coming from the high part of the ferry. A figure with two wings rushed over. First, he took a quick look at Chen Xia and then quickly withdrew his gaze. He said to Cao Gao.
"Captain, I'll go back to my ethnic group at the next ferry terminal. I'm here specifically to say goodbye to you now."
"Yeah, okay." Cao Gao nodded. He reached into his arms and fumbled for a while, then took out an ancient storage bag and asked.
"I've settled all your salaries. It should be three hundred spirit stones, right?"
"Yes, yes." The figure with two wings quickly nodded.
"Is three hundred enough? Why don't you take a bit more? I remember that you were exiled by your ethnic group because you didn't have enough spirit stones to pay the clan fees before." Cao Gao said with concern.
"It's enough, it's enough. You're not having an easy time either. Three hundred spirit stones are enough for me."
"I don't have an easy or hard time. After all, I'm the captain of the ferry. I won't lack these two hundred spirit stones. Just take them. So that you won't be looked down upon when you go back to your ethnic group."
Cao Gao smiled gently and took out five hundred spirit stones from his pocket and handed them to his subordinate.
The subordinate took the spirit stones, pursed his lips, and kept saying, "Thank you, captain. Thank you, captain..."
"It's okay. Remember to take good care of yourself. If you're not treated well in your ethnic group, you can always come back to the ferry. It's more relaxing here." Cao Gao said with a light smile.
After expressing his gratitude excitedly, the subordinate quickly left.
This was just a little episode.
"You have a rather good temper." Chen Xia said with a smile.
"I wouldn't say it's good." Cao Gao touched his cheek and chuckled. "Since I've suffered, there's no need to impose that suffering on others."
Chen Xia didn't say anything.
Cao Gao looked a bit panicked in his expression and quickly said, "My idea might be a bit naive. Please don't mind it. Just consider it as my rambling."
"Why did you choose to operate the ferry? If you became an elder in a small sect, your life should be better than this, right?" Chen Xia suddenly asked.
Cao Gao shook his head slightly and replied, "The reason why I operate the ferry is quite simple. First, I can earn more money. Second, I'm relatively free."
"Joining a sect and becoming an elder, so what? I'd still be suppressed by those above me. If I want to live a good life, I mostly have to suppress those below me."
Cao Gao glanced at Chen Xia's face and, seeing no sign of dissatisfaction, continued.
"My idea might be too naive. Because on the planet where I grew up, the two concepts of immortals and heroes were combined and called Immortal Heroes."
"I can't become an immortal or a hero. I just want to try my best to approach that. Operating the ferry is free, and I can also help some cultivators in trouble. It suits me quite well."
"If I don't operate the ferry in the future, I should find a star to live in seclusion and wait for old age and death."
"Quite interesting." Chen Xia commented with a light smile.
The swaying ferry sailed in the starry sky, carrying heavy dreams.
Chen Xia stood at a high place, his white clothes fluttering. Turning his head among the stars, as if relying on the stars, he asked with a light smile.
"Are you among the million stars?"
Cao Gao was stunned and couldn't answer for a long time. After a long while, he opened his mouth.
His lip shape seemed to say "Yes", but when he actually spoke, there was a strong bitterness in his voice.
"No."
Chapter 159: Are You Among Millions of Stars
渡轮没有停太久.曹高回来后,差不多该出发了.
陈霞摇摇晃晃地回到渡口,恰好与曹高面对面.
两人都愣了一下.曹高连忙打招呼,"您好,前辈.
陈霞有些疑惑,问道:"你去乞讨了吗?
曹高现在的样子,实在让人难以忍受.太乱了,和凡间乞丐没什么区别.
曹高也意识到,这并不体面,尤其是在面对陈夏的时候.于是他撩开头发,露出苍白的脸庞,勉强露出一个笑容.
"不,不.只是发生了一些事故.
"什么样的事故会让你的脸上有掌印?"陈夏更加好奇了,随手靠在船舷上.
他总是喜欢找点可以依靠的东西.
"这是修炼者之间的等级制度和丛林法则.你应该知道这件事.曹高摸了摸自己的脸颊.上面确实有个深深的掌印,仿佛要肿起来.
他知道,那一巴掌是故意这么狠的,就是为了在他脸上留下掌印.
让屈辱刻在他的身上.
这就像用狗链训练狗一样.
"看来这个人对打人耳光有很深的理解."陈夏淡淡地评论道,言语中没有任何感情.
"差不多."曹高轻轻点头,然后笑了笑."你最好回去休息一下.我们很快就要出发了.
"好的."陈霞点点头.他从靠在船舷上站起来,向自己的客房走去.当他走到一半时,他突然转过身来说道.
"用你的头发稍微遮住它.也许它会看起来更好.
"如果你不想遮盖它,那就用别的东西."
陈夏没有说那是什么别的东西,慢慢地走回了自己的客房.
