I'm not a pet

Chapter 258
Looking outside during the Qingming Festival, the top of the mountains.

The morning light of dawn is slowly waking up all sleeping things.

Yin Ruoyu was covered in dew, and stood on the top of the mountain dumbly, her red eyes fixed on a tightly closed stone cave gate on the opposite side.

Who is in the cave, no one in the Marfa Continent knows better than her.

Everyone in the world knows that Patriarch Qingming is just a legend, and even her uncle Qingming only regards Patriarch Qingming as a kind of belief.

Only she clearly knows that Patriarch Qingming is not only a legend and a belief, he really exists!

Patriarch Qingming is behind that stone gate.

Five years ago, when she learned that Venerable Perak wanted to marry her to Long Aotian, she went back to Qingming Temple to seek help from her father.

But the cowardly and cowardly daddy couldn't do anything against the wishes of Venerable Perak for the sake of his own daughter.

She knelt in front of her father's door for three days and three nights, until she was exhausted and fainted in the courtyard. Qing Mingzi never opened the door to look at her, and she never decided to fight against the rule of Venerable Perak for her.

Despondent, she came to the top of the mountain in a trance afterwards, thinking of jumping off from here, wanting to use her broken body in exchange for a clean slate from now on.

But when it came time to jump, she hesitated again.

She thought of Lu Yunchu, she could let go of everything in this world, but she couldn't let go of Lu Yunchu.

Just when she was hesitating, an indistinguishable and extremely dissatisfied voice came from behind the stone door that she didn't care about: "Are you going to dance or not? I've been waiting for a long time!"

She was really taken aback by the sudden sound. She was already very close to the edge of the cliff. When she was startled, she suddenly turned around and subconsciously searched for the source of the sound, and inadvertently stepped on the edge of the cliff with one foot.

"what!"

The weightless body instantly leaned away from the cliff, she cried out in horror, and said straight in her heart: My life is over!
But her body was only tilted to a certain angle, and even her other foot was still on the ground, she felt an invisible force behind her supporting her.

"Do you want to jump? If you want to jump, I will let go." The voice sounded again.

Still in shock, she didn't bother to find out where the voice came from, she only tilted her head a little, and saw the rocks rolling down to the bottom of the bottomless cliff, and instantly gave up the idea of ​​jumping off.

"No, I won't jump anymore." She said weakly, afraid that the invisible force behind her would suddenly disappear, causing her body, which was leaning back, to fall into the deep cliff.

"Really boring!"

The voice of dissatisfaction sounded again, but the invisible force still pushed her in, and she immediately felt the difficulty of the rest of her life after the catastrophe.

After the soles of her feet stood firm, she looked around vigilantly and asked: "Thank you for saving your life, I don't know who you are?"

The voice obviously paused for a moment, then laughed, and laughed after a long while: "Good question! Who is it? Who am I? Hahaha..."

Yin Ruoyu also noticed in this space that there was a stone door that looked like a stone wall, and the sound came from behind the stone door.

Seeing this person speaking incoherently and answering irrelevant questions, she gradually calmed down and became a little scared.

Thinking of my weak mana, and thinking that that person didn't seem to be sincere in saving her just now... If I meet bad people in this barren mountain, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it.

Immediately without waiting for the person to answer, he wanted to cast a spell and teleport away.

That is to say, the magic power has just been stimulated, and the voice is faint and authentic: "I went out of this mountain once a hundred years ago, and the people at the Qingming Temple at the foot of the mountain seemed to call me Patriarch..."

"Old Ancestor?" She immediately stopped urging her mana, and said in amazement, "Old Ancestor Qingming?"

"Hmm!" The voice said, "It seems that's how they call me, but am I really that old?"

She looked at the closed stone door, her mind spinning rapidly.

Observing the boundaries of the world in a clear and bright way, there is no way for people with profound abilities.

And this person can know her every move through the closed stone door, and can even judge her gender and approximate age. Only after years of practice and profound magic power can he reach the realm of space perception.

And the invisible force that supported her just now must be caused by mana.This person has been able to control power with magic power from a distance, and his cultivation is really unpredictable.

It's just that this person's voice...it really doesn't sound like an old person.

No matter what, as long as you are strong, I will recognize you as my ancestor!

Thinking of this, she immediately knelt on the ground and bowed her head and said, "Yin Ruoyu, the daughter of Qingmingzi, the current head of Qingming temple, kneel down to worship Qingming patriarch!"

"Hey! She is a little girl who knows etiquette, but she is much more sensible than those old men in Qingming Temple I met a hundred years ago..."

Kneeling on the ground, she didn't get up, but she couldn't help curling her lips when she heard Patriarch Qingming's words: If you are really Patriarch Qingming, you must be at least a thousand years old. Old...old man?

Thinking this way in his heart, he said respectfully: "Thank you for your praise!"

"Well, the ground is hard, don't wear your delicate knees. Get up and talk!"

After she stood up, Patriarch Qingming asked: "Seeing that you are so cute and sensible, why don't you tell me...cough cough, tell Patriarch why you were so heartbroken just now? Let Patriarch see if I can Make up your mind!"

Hearing this, she was overjoyed, and immediately told the whole story in detail.It's just that she didn't mention Lu Yunchu's name in the narration, and only called Lu Yunchu "junior brother".

"It's just a bunch of stubborn old men!"

After listening to her, Patriarch Qingming's reaction was beyond her expectation, she even heard the sound of stones being thrown from behind the stone gate.

After a long while, Patriarch Qingming calmed down a little, and said: "I hate to see loving people not being able to stay together... Patriarch, I will make the decision for you!"

She was overjoyed again, knelt down and kowtowed to Shimen again, while waiting for the old ancestor to say how he would decide for her.

But after waiting for a long time, there was no movement inside the stone gate.

"Old Ancestor?" She tentatively called softly.

"Huh?" The ancestor replied concisely, indicating that he was still there.

"How do you decide for the little girl?" She asked expectantly.

"Uh... I've already thought about it for you, you go and destroy them!" Inside the stone gate, the voice of the ancestor came lightly.

"..."

She was at a loss for words for a while, is this what the ancestor called "making decisions for her"?
Seeing her silent, the ancestor said: "Maybe you become so powerful that they dare not not listen to you!"

She sighed in her heart, powerful?Why doesn't she want to?But she has mediocre aptitude and low cultivation, how can she become strong?
Even so, she still did not give up hope, and said: "The ancestor's reputation is far away in the Mafa Continent. If the ancestor can come out of the mountain and be the master of the little girl, then..."

"Hey! This is not acceptable!"

The ancestor quickly interrupted her: "It's better to rely on yourself in everything. If you become strong, who will dare to bully you in the future?"

After a pause, he heard him muttering in a low voice: "Besides, I'm still thinking about it. It's not time to go out of the mountain. Otherwise, what I want will not be realized..."
