Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Last Choice

"The so-called Penglai medicine is a medicine against the sky that is refined with the fire of the sun with the blessing of the princess's eternal power, with the moon branch as the main ingredient, with ninety-eight kinds of medicinal materials. www.biquge.info It has only one effect, which is to permanently solidify the soul and body of the user in the same way as it was when taking it, and no matter if it encounters physical or soul damage, it will return to its original state in an instant. However, there are gains and losses, Zhibei, if a person with weak strength and fragile soul takes Penglai medicine, what will happen? ”

Yonglin used her usual tone to break the eye contact between the father and daughter due to disagreement.

"Taken by a vulnerable person?" Hearing Yonglin's words, Zhibei was also stunned for a moment, he muttered to himself, and then reacted suddenly.

The phrase "the soul and body of the user will be fixed forever in the way they were taken" made him immediately understand Kaguya's thoughts.

"That's right, as you guessed from your father, although the people of Penglai will not die, they will not change any more." Keenly aware of the change in Zhibei's expression, Kaguya added lightly.

"In other words, if you take Penglai medicine, your own strength will never be able to improve again, right?" Seeing Kaguya nodding seriously, Zhibei chuckled instead.

"What's wrong, father?" Kaguya couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"It's okay, it's just that Kaguya nods seriously is so cute, so I can't help but smile."

"What! You'd rather be serious with me! Stupid Dad! Kaguya's face was slightly red, and although he still remained calm, Zhibei had already sensed a slight tremor in the voice that was trying to keep it calm.

"Alah! Kaguya has learned to be shy, too! Smiling and narrowing his eyes, Zhibei gently tapped Kaguya's little head.

"Who, who's shy!" Kaguya retorted, then muttered quietly, "Besides, who do you think harmed me!" ”

"Well...... Hawkers! Sighing noncommittally, Zhibei didn't hear Kaguya's last whisper, so thinking of saving some face for Kaguya in front of Yonglin, he didn't continue to laugh, but turned back to the original topic, "If my strength can't improve, then it's even more impossible for me to take Penglai's medicine." Because I have a promise that I have to keep, and for that promise I have to have great power -- a power that I am far from being able to do now. Besides, if I can't become stronger, what should I use to protect everyone's happiness and happiness in the future? ”

Hearing Zhibei's words, Kaguya suddenly quieted down, it was a rare silence since she opened her smile, and even her lively and smart eyes were rarely quiet. Yonglin on the side also smiled lightly because of Zhibei's words - she could feel his strong will from Zhibei's words, and sure enough, the princess's young adoptive father was a very interesting person!

The situation of quieting down in vain made Zhibei feel a little embarrassed, and he couldn't help but ask cautiously, "What's wrong...... Am I speaking in a sensual way? ”

"......" Kaguya and Yongrin didn't speak, just looked at him.

"Is it ......" twitched the corners of his mouth, Zhibei found out for the first time that his passive [Absolute Refrigeration Field] seemed to have been added to LV5, ah~ It's really Niu 13's superpower...... What a fart!

But fortunately, Kaguya's blazing eyes made Zhibei breathe a sigh of relief, obviously, Zhibei's passivity is not so strong, Kaguya still has something to say.

"Now, Kaguya, what do you want to say? Let's talk about it! ”

Hearing Zhibei's words, Kaguya's face suddenly changed, and he put on a serious face like a professional brickman. However, the effect of such an expression made by Princess Kaguya, who is known as "the most powerful and Nadeshiko on earth", is of course completely different from those blessed Mediterranean people, and it can no longer be described as cute.

Anyway, under the attack of a sense of disobedience, Zhibei almost couldn't help laughing.

"Father-" Kaguya squinted at Zhibei in an elongated tone with dissatisfaction, "What are you thinking of something bad!" ”

"How can there be ......" Zhibei did not hesitate to deny Kaguya's judgment.

"Well...... Forget it......" After a pause, Kaguya couldn't find any evidence, so he had to say with that overly serious attitude, "Father, what I want to ask is, what is really powerful?" What is a real powerhouse? What do you think about these two issues? Do you also think that strong strength is really strong? ”

"Huh?" Kaguya's question made Zhibei stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Kaguya, why would you want to ask such a question?" ”

"Because...... Mei Hong asked me so. Kaguya replied helplessly.

"So, did you answer her question properly?"

"Hmm," Kaguya replied, somewhat uncertainly, "I replied......"

"But she's still confused, isn't she?" Seeing Kaguya's acquiescence, Zhibei said with a complicated face, "Ah...... Are you in a troublesome state? From that point of view, the current sister red is indeed not suitable for taking Penglai's medicine! Even if she were to gain such immortality now, she might one day become a reserve for greedy monsters, or some bard who specializes in writing sad verses...... Moreover, the fog-like confusion is enough to make her future gray, and life is worse than death, so that she will not be able to experience the happiness of eternal life at all! ”

At this time, Zhibei suddenly thought of a new idea, which was so shiny and had such a great success rate, that he finally laughed, "Ha! That's unfortunate...... But...... Hum! ”

Smiling mysteriously, Chihoku looked at Kaguya, who was already a little impatient.

"Father!" Kaguya screamed a little unpleasantly.

"Well...... Don't worry...... Kaguya. Still with the smile that appeared for some reason, Zhibei raised his chin and motioned for Kaguya to look back.

There it is, just after hibernation, and the realm youkai who is coming out of the quilt.

"I think so...... Your problem Purple should be solved! Without hesitation, Zhibei kicked the ball to Purple, who was still yawning.

"Nani? What's the problem? Zi was stunned, but she didn't lose her mind at all, and her movements were as elegant as everβ€”even if she was yawning.

"What is really strong and what is really strong?" Zhibei also put on a deliberately serious face, and repeated Kaguya's question with great momentum, and for some reason, Kaguya felt a little ashamed when he saw this.

"Such a question...... There is no fixed answer! Purple replied without hesitation, "A thousand people have a thousand opinions on this kind of question, and the wonder of this world is that these thousand opinions are all right. Well...... I hate this ambiguity anyway! ”

"Isn't there a fixed answer......" Kaguya repeated Murasaki's words, a little thoughtful.

"That's right! The strength of the heart is really strong, the strength of the body is really strong, the strength of the spiritual power is really strong, the strength of the skill is really strong, and different people always have different opinions, don't they? Zhibei picked up the conversation, "However, among all these factors, the spiritual factor should be very important!" At least I think that a person who does not have a strong will can never be called a strong person. As for Mei Hong's question......"

After a pause, Chihoku continued, "Judging from Kaguya's intelligence, I don't think she wants to gain invincible power, but to gain the meaning of continuing to survive tenaciously! For this trouble, I think, I have thought of a good solution. ”

Yes, that's the best way to combine the two options - Zhibei thinks to himself. He can make Mei Hong make the mistake caused by greed, and let her find her true meaning in this brief pain. As for the Iwagasa (the upright) who was unlucky enough to be pushed down the crater, as long as he and Zi are there, they will definitely be able to save him in mid-air, so that when Meihong successfully defeats the immortal bird, she will not regret the years after this incident.

Zhibei believes that these historical events will shape the future Meihong, the kind, righteous, and arrogant white-haired girl, but at the same time, in order to alleviate the pain that Meihong endured, they have to make some arrangements.

Without saying what he thought, Zhibei waved his hand and said: "For this good way, I need everyone's help, na, Yonglin, please give this Penglai medicine to the emperor, and let him choose an auspicious day to send to Mount Fuji to destroy - of course, the news will be announced." As for Purple, please come with me to the crater for a run, we need to meet the immortal birds for a while. ”

"What about me? What about me? Kaguya, who was on the side, asked impatiently.

"Kaguya...... Please be a Chicken Soup Ambassador for the Soul again! ”

"Hey, what's that name......"
