Chapter 979: What poem should I copy next?
Ling Ying was a little unhappy after hearing what Mo Cheng said, "I have the ability to protect myself, and I have never thought of abandoning my companions."
"If you think I will run away at a critical moment, you can place restrictions on me now."
The implication of Mo Cheng's words seemed to indicate that he regarded Ling Ying as a hindrance, which Ling Ying naturally could not accept.
As a disciple of the three Yunping immortals, and already the head of the first area of [Nanli Daoyu] at a young age, he naturally has his own pride. How could he abandon Mo Cheng and flee as soon as he encounters danger as Mo Cheng said?
In addition, the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] attacked the [Nanli Dao Realm]. Not only did Mo Cheng come all the way to support them, but even the main purpose of this operation was that Mo Cheng wanted to deal with the [Ten Directions Demon Bandits] as soon as possible and take this risky move.
When Mo Cheng said this at this time, it was like putting someone on the moral grill and whipping him repeatedly, and then rubbing cumin into the wound.
"You misunderstood me."
Mo Cheng didn't expect that just one sentence would cause such a big reaction from the other party. After all, based on his previous experience in the [Foreign Land], tasks such as covering the rear were basically undertaken by him.
There is no other reason, it’s just that most of the time, Mo Cheng is the best fighter in the entire team.
Covering the rear is the most common task during the pioneering period when unexpected events always occur.
"I'm not disparaging anyone, I'm just being tactical about the worst possible scenario."
Mo Cheng explained softly, "Gui Yimou has been able to dominate the countries for so many years, so he may have made relevant plans. If the situation becomes uncontrollable, then I need a battlefield where I can be free from any scruples."
Because of the warning from the golden figure, Mo Cheng did not intend to clash with the Ten Directions Demon Bandits directly in the crowd. He was very clear about his own destructive power. With his current level of cultivation, once the fight started, unless he paid special attention to other people, the aftermath alone would be enough to destroy cities and mountains.
At the same time, Mo Cheng also understood very well that it was undoubtedly a false proposition to expect him to focus on taking care of people after the fight.
"What I mean is that even if we destroy everything within a thousand miles, it won't cause any casualties in the battlefield of [Nanli Dao Territory]."
Ling Ying pondered for a while before saying, "There is a secret room under Heyang City, which is covered by a formation. No one can open that room except the eight leaders and their subordinates... their direct relatives. In the room is the highest command to control the entire city defense formation. Once it is activated, all other command permissions will be frozen."
"In addition to the highest authority, there is also a super-large teleportation array inside that can transfer the entire city's population."
These should have been extremely confidential information of [Nanli Dao Domain], but under the circumstances, Ling Ying had no intention of hiding it.
Although Ling Ying did not explain it completely, Mo Cheng heard the secret.
"So the highest authority and the teleportation array are available in all cities, right?"
Ling Ying did not answer, but her silence at this time was already a tacit agreement.
Setting up such a thing in all cities is obviously to deal with certain crises.
Considering that many banished immortals from the [Immortal Chaos Era] were sealed in the [Nanli Dao Realm], it is not difficult to infer that these are all prepared for the banished immortals who break the seal.
What Ling Ying said were only the arrangements for [protection] and [transfer], and she did not mention how to deal with the arrangements for the exiled immortal. Moreover, Mo Cheng was also certain that [Nanli Dao Realm] must have had more than one set of related arrangements over the past tens of thousands of years.
But he had no intention of asking further questions. The information was too sensitive. If it were placed on Earth, it would be enough to mark out all the country's nuclear war protection facilities.
Mo Cheng pressed the bridge of his nose and said, "Then let's arrange it this way for now. If a fight is unavoidable, I will hold the others back first, and you will activate the teleportation formation to take them to a safe place, and then come back to support me."
Although Mo Cheng felt that the last half of the sentence was unnecessary, he still said it, otherwise Ling Ying might think that he was planning to take all the responsibility on himself.
Although Mo Cheng did do so.
After finalizing the plan, the two continued on their way. Ling Ying looked at the white light that appeared and disappeared on her body. It was the residual power of [Zhen Shan He] that had not yet completely dissipated.
Ling Ying glanced at Mo Cheng, her heart filled with doubts.
The one who is confused is Mo Cheng.
At such a young age, he has already achieved unrivaled accomplishments, and his knowledge in every field is extremely profound, which is completely different from the evaluation of "Middle Class B" from the Jixia Academy.
But what Mo Cheng has shown in front of everyone these days is far more than just the evaluation of [China League Two].
This is no longer a simple practice of Taoism and Confucianism or the three religions. In Ling Ying's opinion, Mo Cheng knows a little bit of everything, and the list of things he knows is constantly lengthening as time goes by.
"Is your grade in Jixia Academy really only [Second Class]?"
“It may be even lower.”
Mo Cheng has a good understanding of himself. If he were to take the exam at Jixia Academy now, he would probably fail.
Perhaps it was because they had started a conversation, or perhaps the topic was not sensitive, so the two continued chatting.
"But you were so sad and heartbroken at that time that you had no interest in studying?" Ling Ying chuckled, "I was too lazy to look back at the flowers, half because of my cultivation and half because of you. Your poem "Separation" is famous all over the world, but I don't know how beautiful the person who made you so infatuated is."
With the reputation of "Qilin Talent", the poem "Li Si" written at the Bai Gu Poetry Conference has already spread all over the country, creating an image of Mo Cheng as a man with a broken heart.
Many people are curious about the woman who could hurt the [Qilin Talent] and make him stop being attached to the worldly world and turn to practicing Taoism.
After all, gossip is the instinct of intelligent creatures.
"There is no such person. There has never been any woman. I copied the poem." Mo Cheng didn't know how many times he had told people this. Ever since he wrote "Li Si" at the Bai Gu Poetry Conference, people always thought that he was emotionally traumatized.
"If you don't believe me, I can copy one for you right now."
If he had known that copying a poem would have such troublesome consequences, Mo Cheng would not have said anything and would have simply admitted that he was not well-educated and could not answer the question.
Anyway, at that time, other people were laughing at Taoist Wei Yi for not being able to teach his disciples.
Ling Ying naturally didn't believe it. In other words, no matter how Mo Cheng explained to others that this was a copied poem, many famous scholars had heard of this poem "Li Si", and it was impossible to find this poem appearing anywhere else.
But the only person who wrote this poem has been emphasizing that he did not write it.
As for whether other people believe it or not, that depends on their own opinion.
