Dharma Ring: Selling dung beetles at the border

Millicent and Wuming were walking on the road, both of them a little silent.

The unknown silence is because he is counting the number of people infected by corruption along the way.

Millicent's silence was because most of these people looked at her strangely.

Whispers drifted into her ears on the breeze.

Women who spread corruption in the city, relatives of corruption, believers of corruption, descendants of the Valkyrie, people who feed on corruption...

The golden needle has been pulled out, but some words still prick her heart like needles.

And she couldn't refute many of the accusations, and she did cause a lot of danger in the city.

Millicent lowered her head and followed Wuming step by step.

Wuming suddenly stopped, and Millicent's head hit Wuming's armor, making a clanging sound.

Ah! Wuming thought of something and was very upset.

What's wrong? Millicent asked.

Wuming was heartbroken: The deal I negotiated with Jie Lian was a one-time deal. The transaction was about formulas rather than selling medicines piece by piece. I can't earn runes anymore.

Millicent smiled after hearing this. Wuming was very reliable and stable, which actually calmed her uneasy heart a little.

You don't need to pay attention to what those people say. Wuming said, They are infected by corruption. They are suffering enough. Why don't you let people say something?

I see... Millicent whispered.

Seeing that Millicent was still in a very low mood, Wuming snapped his fingers, and a burst of light enveloped her.

Millicent disappeared directly.

He once again covered Millicent with a layer of light magic to disguise her.

I'll make you invisible so others can't see you. Wuming said.

Thank you, Millicent said.

Although I felt a little embarrassed hiding like a dung beetle, I did feel a lot more relaxed.

Although this teacher has some strange ideas, he is really kind to himself.

Millicent looked at Wuming's back and felt strong and warm.

Wu Mingze is still nagging:

You can't always care about other people's eyes. You have to be strong-willed and find some support for yourself. Be it faith or ideal, it can strengthen your will. Spiritual support is very important.

I've found my backbone, Millicent said.

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head, and the invisible light magic covered up the blush on her cheeks.

It can't be me, right? Wuming turned his head, his eyes tore through the disguise of light magic, and looked directly at Millicent.

Millicent took a breath, suffocated, didn't know what to say, and her face turned redder.

Wuming observed Millicent's expression and turned his head back:

Here's a word of advice, don't do this.

Why? Millicent blurted.

Don't place your pillars on something that is not stable enough, otherwise you will become unfortunate. Wuming said, If the pillars collapse, you will also fall into despair.

Wuming let out a long sigh with sadness:

I once admired an idol, and that idol longed for another belief. When my idol's belief collapsed, despair overwhelmed him and almost overwhelmed me, and I almost couldn't get out.

Millicent had never seen Wuming show such emotion. She was affected by the emotion and felt a little sad:

I never imagined that someone like you would have been in despair...how did you come out of it?

I inherited the faith of my idol. Wuming said, I want to fulfill his future and will. The unfulfilled future that will no longer be shown in his eyes will give me lasting strength.

Wuming grabbed Millicent's shoulders and said in a serious tone:

This is a rule of thumb. Faith brings power, but faith itself must be strong enough. You don't like Valkyrie, right? Then don't be like her and place your spiritual support on fragile individuals. Once you place your feelings on Due to a fragile individual, you will be limited by this individual, just like, just like...

Wuming scratched his head and considered his words:

It's like a bird with a silk thread tied to its feet. The bird should look into the distance, always staring at the unreachable goal, rather than hovering around one end of the silk thread.

Millicent said:

Remember to act in a hurry and never to linger?

Not bad, very understanding. Wuming said.

Are you looking at the distant goal? Millicent looked to the north, What kind of goal is far away, and what kind of sustenance can make me as tenacious as a teacher...

Wuming perked up after hearing this, and hugged Millicent with unprecedented kindness and enthusiasm:

Then I'm going to introduce you to our Heavenly Father and Savior. Come and believe in the sun! That way you will never despair. Have you heard the story of the sun...

========

Jillian studied Millicent, circling her back and forth.

Is this really the girl you were talking about? Jie Lian asked Wu Ming, There is no sign of corruption at all.

If it's fake, how about I let her show off the corruption on the spot? Wuming looked at Millicent.

Allow me to refuse. Millicent raised her hands in defense.

I will let a few red lions test your method. If it proves to be effective, I will give you the portal. Jie Lian said.

Isn't it an important strategic material now? Wuming teased.

If it can be cured, we can free up more troops to guard more places, and the portal will not be needed. Jie Lian said.

Jie Lian found a few red lions to test on the spot.

In order to fight against corruption, the Red Lions have already generally accepted the power of fire. They did not have the initiation process of Millicent and quickly mastered the nameless method.

These people's illnesses were much milder than Millicent's, and the results were quick. Their movements were not even affected during the treatment, and the corruption was quickly removed.

I'll accept the portal. Wuming said.

He was about to say goodbye to Jie Lian, but was stopped.

Jielian said: The focus you need to focus on now is General Ratan.

Is Latarn going to die? Wuming asked.

Jie Lian said: The results of the observatory are not very optimistic. The stars are ready to move. Once stars appear in the night sky, we will be late.

Wuming was embarrassed: But I want to deploy the portal as soon as possible to open my business route.

Jie Lian said: I will send someone back to you, and you can cure the general. Otherwise, the festival will be over before you come back.

Hiss... Wuming became even more difficult, It's not easy to handle either.

One of the portals is sent to the bugs, allowing the red lion to be sent to the Ionian swamps?

He was afraid that as soon as the delivery address was revealed, the portal would not be delivered, and he would be kicked out first.

I'll go. Millicent said.

She knew the details of Wuming, so she naturally eliminated the difficulty of Wuming.

Are you sending the one closer, or the one farther away? Wuming communicated with Millicent like a secret code.

Send both. Millicent smiled, I am going to complete my mission. I will pass by Ningmugefu on my way north. I also want to see the teacher's shop and maybe stay for a while. If you come back early, we See you again.

Oh, that's fine. Wuming said, I said I would help you fight corruption, and now the contract has been completed. It's a pity that my story about the sun is only half-way through.

We will meet again in the future, and I will listen to your teachings then. Millicent said.

She looked much more relaxed.

Wuming asked Millicent to leave in the Falling Star Beast, and asked the Falling Star Beast to escort Millicent who had a broken arm and could not protect herself.

Before leaving, he also gave Millicent a notebook.

Wuming said: There are some flame prayer spells inside. You can learn them so that one hand can protect itself.

I will always look forward. Millicent sat on the Starfall Beast, I have found my spiritual support.

Is it the sun? Wuming's eyes lit up.

She's my teacher. Millicent smiled.

You unlucky kid, why didn't you listen to my advice? Wuming was a little dissatisfied.

Millicent shook her head: I have understood your teachings, please don't worry, I will not despair.

Millicent knelt down on the Starfall Beast, put her notes on her knees, and waved her fist:

Even if the teacher dies, I will not despair. I will inherit your will and always move towards the unreachable goal.

Curse me to death? Wuming said.

You won't die anyway. Millicent smiled with two dimples.

She waved goodbye to Wuming and waited until Wuming could no longer be seen. She lay down on the Falling Star Beast's broad back, holding the notebook tightly in her arms.

It was already night in Galid, and the scarlet sky faded away, revealing the distant night.

Millicent looked at the far-reaching night sky and felt the warmth brought by the fire in her body.

Although it didn't last long, the warm figure was already engraved in her heart. Like a meteor passing through the sky across my heart, although it is fleeting, I will never forget it.

She will no longer linger, but will remember and follow.

She was going north to meet the Valkyrie.

She wanted to pass on this warmth and will to the demigod with whom she had a close relationship.

In the night sky, a shooting star streaked across.

Then the night sky wakes up and the stars open their eyes.
