Ninety days of practice is not too long, and it is not very short. This day will come soon, and Ji Ran, who has been in the forest for nearly three years at this time, seems to be reborn in Nirvana, and under the dual tempering of body and spirit, he has become stronger and more resolute.

Ji Ran never imagined that the time of 900 days would pass so quickly, when he first entered the Forest of Time, he was just an ordinary boy who couldn't even understand the rules of time here, and now after this period of tempering, he finally became an outstanding martial artist.

"This is the last of your practice... It's also the hardest part, and it's several times more terrifying than the wild creatures you've ever encountered. Uncle Liang said earnestly. "The most fearful thing is to go back to the beginning, but they don't know that the most effective way to improve their abilities is to hide in the beginning. ”

"Teacher, what do you mean?" asked Ji Ran with some confusion. Although he has been studying in the forest for so long, he still can't comprehend this kind of profound words, and he can only know a rough idea.

"Do you remember what was the first problem you encountered when you first entered this Forest of Time?"

Ji Ran scratched his neck, raised his head, and rolled his eyes from side to side, "Yes.. The mirror of the waterfall?" At this time, he recalled what happened when he first stepped into the land of the Forest of Time, at that time, he was anxious for quick success, and he was eager to improve his strength, but fortunately, Uncle Liang pulled him, otherwise he didn't know what kind of appearance he would fall into at this time.

"That's right. This waterfall mirror can reflect the picture of the subconscious of people, and of course, this picture can only be seen by you. This consciousness lurks in the deepest part of your heart, and it may not be what you want to see, but it is what you want to do the most. If what you think is muddy, the water will turn black, but if not, the water will still be clear. Uncle Liang said and looked at the pond

"The disciple personally brought by the Hurricane Heavenly Guard before was destroyed at this level, and so far only Zhou Luonan has passed this test. Do you think you will be next?" Uncle Liang looked at Ji Ran with a kind smile on his face.

"Just try it.... But before I go in, I want to ask what happened to the destroyed disciple?" Ji Ran was like a three-year-old child at this time, excited and scared of something curious.

"His heart is cloudy. I don't know the exact details, but I do know that the pool was like a night sky. No matter how hard the Hurricane Heaven Keep tried, he couldn't pull back a person who was willing to fall and indulge in his own heart. That disciple has completely degenerated..."Looking at the pool in front of him, it seems that the past events that happened in this area are repeating scene by scene.

"And what happened to him?"

"The fallen will find their own hell, and the righteous will have a place where their responsibilities lie... Where do you think he's going to go, or where is the best fit for him?"

"Will the magician?"

"Maybe... You'll know that, and you'll probably meet them on the battlefield. ”

"If there is that time, I will definitely pull him back from the abyss of depravity..."Ji Ran clenched his fists indignantly and shouted loudly.

"First of all, you have to get through this on your own, I think you should know why I told you to meditate every night.... Only in their own realm, people can discover their true selves, good and bad, some people are born with a good role, you just need to be the most authentic self. Don't be blinded by hatred, don't be deceived by pity. ”

"I remember. Ji Ran smiled, stood on the edge of the pool, took a deep breath and fell down. The water quickly crushed him, and he sank quickly.

When the surroundings were pitch black, this inner voice really sounded, Ji Ran was familiar with this feeling, and he was not much surprised, after all, he was a person who had experienced it once.

At first, I felt like the water around me was pressing on me and couldn't move, and then I felt that the oxygen in my body was being squeezed out little by little like squeezing toothpaste. At first, it felt like I was about to suffocate, but after a while, I got through it, and it was like being on land. "The feeling was different two times. ”

At this time, many bubbles bubbled up around him and leaned towards Ji Ran, and they disappeared as soon as they touched Ji Ran's body, but there was an indescribable feeling that was turning over the river and the sea in his body, like a tornado rushing madly across his body. "What the hell are these..."Ji Ran was already at a loss at this time, not only did he not see the so-called illusion, but he could feel that his body was being covered by something.

"It's strange, this power is strange but powerful, and it seems to be similar to my hidden power, and I can clearly feel that it is merging bit by bit. It's like cells, they're growing and dividing."

Suddenly a lot of blue water droplets condensed above the pool and smashed into the water, all of them going in one direction, and the speed of getting closer and faster was getting closer. Looking at this scene, Uncle Liang, who was standing next to Tan, said lightly, "Sometimes, it is not people who choose fate, but fate that chooses people." Take this gift from your father..."

Soon, Ji Ran was pushed to the surface of the water by the water, Uncle Liang pulled him to the edge of the pool, and after a few light coughs, Ji Ran sat up after the water in his lungs was drained. "Uncle Liang, it's really strange to be down there just now.... There's no illusion as you said, just a strange breath running into my body, and now I can't feel that breath anymore..."

"I've never seen you in this situation, but when you were underwater just now, the water in this pool was still very clear, doesn't it prove that your heart is normal, isn't that okay. Okay, you've passed all the disciplines, and I don't have anything to teach you. When the time comes, you will be sent back by the Forest of Time....."

"Thank you for your guidance all this time..."

"Don't thank me, I'm just returning the favor to that guy.... Also, you really look like him, the first time I saw you, it was like seeing him when he was younger, but what you do in the future depends on how you do it. As he spoke, a magic circle suddenly appeared under Ji Ran's feet.

"Looks like the time has come... In short, I would not have made such a leap forward without you.... I think we'll have a chance to see each other again in the future."

A beam of light flashed, and only Uncle Liang was left in place.

—————— High School College

A couple was sitting on the bench and I was talking about me, Ji Ran didn't know why he was sent to the air, looking at the two people who were still flirting and scolding below, he wanted to remind them but it was too late, and he sat on the bench with his butt down, one on the left and one on the right.

I don't know why some things can be so coincidental, at this time, it happened to be the aunt who was sweeping the floor, and looked at a man and a woman kissing Ji Ran's face and couldn't help but tremble, "Young people now, it's really.. Hey..."

"Hey, Auntie, it's not what you think..."Ji Ran raised his hand to explain, but Auntie ignored it and walked away, and there was an extremely excited expression on her face, as if she had found this week's gossip. "Who are you..."

"Ahh "What do you mean, little brother, I'll forget about her like this," Ji Ran pointed to the girl covering her mouth on the side when she said, "What do you mean by this.... Didn't I have any better plans with you two?"

Ji Ran stood up and rubbed his buttocks solemnly, "My God, falling down so high, this bench is really strong." He was about to leave, but who would have thought that the boy would stop him. "Wait a minute.."

"I'm going to die... It's not like you're trying to trouble me. I'm at a loss for this kind of thing, but look at his appearance....." Ji Ran looked at the other party, wearing a pair of glasses and looking like a crepe, he was not very tall. "It should be a scientific research department, probably not much trouble, at most it will be counted out..."

"What are you doing.... Little brother" Ji Ran looked at the other party's thin body and didn't know why he became arrogant.

"I wanted to ask Brother Ren, how did you suddenly appear above our heads? This makes me feel very amazing, so I want to ask you...."The boy said solemnly holding on to his glasses for some reason.

"Come..."Ji Ran walked over and put his hand on his shoulder, stepped aside and whispered. "I don't usually tell anyone about these things. But I've bumped into you today, if you want to learn it, I can teach you, but you look at your weak appearance, you shouldn't have any ability, it's very popular to learn this, and you can shuttle through the girls' boudoirs at will and won't be discovered by their parents, and it's a merry man's ability to have..."As soon as he saw that the other party was serious, Ji Ran began to use the ability to flicker.

"Actually, I still have a little ability..."

"Do you have any strong abilities like this? It should be some kind of highly developed brain... Accurate calculations, or something." Ji Ran waved his hand.

"No, I'll transform. And the two things you said, the latter one belongs to the former one, don't get confused. ”

"None of this matters... Will you transform, change one and show me, let me see if you are a manufacturable material..."Ji Ran said and patted the boy's shoulder. I thought to myself, "This person can also transform, isn't it?" What can he become, a Super Doctor with a test tube in both hands, or an archaeology professor with a brush?"

I saw that the boy took off his glasses and put them in his pocket, and his whole body tensed. With a sudden roar, his body suddenly became more than half a cut taller than Ji Ran, and it was as strong as a lion, bursting his shirt. The buttons ejected out one by one like bullets, and Ji Ran hurriedly raised his hand to block his head and dodged back and forth.

"Not bad... You have the potential to be my little brother, so I will recruit you exceptionally... Don't thank me. As he spoke, Ji Ran glanced the boy up and down again, as if something had happened, and immediately ran to the girl's side.

The eyes had already smiled into the shape of waves, and there was a treacherous and obscene expression on his face, and he pointed to the boy's very bulging crotch, "No wonder you are looking for him to be your boyfriend, it's hard at night..."

When the girl said this, her face suddenly turned red and she ran away shyly. When the boy saw it, he immediately returned to his original state and chased after him, "Big brother, you must take the time to teach me the skill that can shuttle through the girl's boudoir at will..."

"Don't have a problem..."Ji Ran raised his hand and waved with an OK gesture.

Because the place where I came back was the garden of the college, there was still some distance from the main courtyard, and I saw a lot of people along the way who I didn't know, and they were generally seniors and seniors who were older than themselves, because they had completed the course early, but they had already been admitted to the academy as an executor or judge and worked in some firms.

For three months, things don't change much, but people may change a lot. Some people may have become more mature and attractive, some people have become more sunny and free, and some people have become stronger and more straightforward.

Ji Ran is the third type, although these three months of cultivation time have increased his strength by several levels, but he has become an out-and-out Tie Hanhan.

Walking and finding that there was a barber shop opened in the academy on the side, Ji Ran touched his hair, it was already a little long and there was no hairstyle to speak of, it was just a messy growth. "Let's go clean up for myself first, or they won't even recognize me the way I look now..."

I walked into the store and said hello to the boss and found a place to sit down, looking at myself in the mirror and really a little sloppy. "Hello, how to cut"

"Just get a short haircut and make it fresh. ”

"Okay, sit down. ”

As it was cut short, it was finished quickly.

Not to mention that this hairstyle can change a person's appearance, this hair is a few years younger in an instant, and the previous appearance is almost like someone's uncle coming to the academy to find a nephew.

But he still cares a little about the scar on his right eye, although he got a pupil power against the sky by hitting it crookedly, but he was originally a fierce-looking person, and it is estimated that it is a little difficult to find a girl with this scar.

Walked out of the store and looked in the direction of the main courtyard.

"I don't know how those guys are doing now, if they can all rub me to the ground. Thinking about it, I couldn't help but tremble, "Forget it, I don't want to do this." I'm a little hungry, so let's go get something to eat first. At that time, the forest always ate the flesh of strange wild animals and the vegetation with its own personality, which was disgusting to think about. How did I survive... It's not easy. ”

After paying the money, Ji Ran walked in the direction of the cafeteria.

After a day of rectification—

The college specially gave all students a three-day vacation. This is the last day, and the students will be coming back one after another within the day.

After all, he still slept comfortably in bed, Ji Ran had been sitting on the bed since before ten o'clock last night, and fell asleep at half past eleven o'clock.

I didn't expect this sleep to be at noon. For more than 900 days in the Forest of Time, Ji Ran slept in a hammock hanging between the branches every day, saying that the bed was nothing more than a sturdy piece of fabric.

It's not as soft as this bed, but it's not bad, at least it's better than sleeping on the ground and being infested with wild animals all day long.

I have to say that people are indeed a lot more energetic, during the cultivation period, Ji Ran has never slept once, the sleep time is more than six hours, and he usually gets up early to practice before dawn. "I almost forgot, I have to meditate every morning and evening. ”

The duration of the retreat is about 40 minutes, and it is mainly used to channel the breath in the body, so that it fills the whole body so that people can feel refreshed, and can speed up the circulation of blood and cells in the body, which helps to restore injuries and strengthen the body.

After this link, Ji Ran washed up and went out. "It's almost time to adjust, it's time to see the teacher. Tell him everything that has happened to me in this practice. ”

When they arrived in the hall, some of them walked in with suitcases, some of them knew Ji Ran, and after greeting each other, they walked away.

However, outside the door of this hall, Ji Ran met his old acquaintance, "Gay, isn't it... If I were to go to her now, I would have a lot of nagging to tell me, and I was in a hurry to report to the teacher. Let's get out of the way for now, and then we'll get together with you and Xi later. ”

It took a lot of effort to get out through another hidden exit. (Jumping from a window on the second floor)

Fortunately, there are people I know along the way, and there are no very good people, otherwise I don't know how much time this question will take, Ji Ran actually thought that he would notify everyone together in the evening.

If you meet someone after a while, you have to say it again, then you must not be tired to death, these 900 days of experience are not something that can be explained in short words, and some things can be told to some people, and some are not.

With a little concern, Ji Ran pushed open the door of the security room, and Hurricane Tianshou was lying on a rattan chair, singing songs on the radio on the side, still holding the purple sand spout pot in his hand, closing his eyes and humming a few words from time to time, and taking a sip of tea from time to time, very leisurely. "Teacher...."

The Hurricane Castle Guard heard the call and did not rush to get up and open his eyes. "Coming back?"

"Yes, teacher. ”

"Yes, that's good. The qi on his body is already one in heaven and one on the earth before. There is a lot of progress, but there is something strange about the qi in your body, there are two qi that do not belong to you, but are merging with your qi. The Hurricane Castle Tower put on a carefully studied expression, but never opened his eyes. Shaking the rattan chair, he said, "Is that so? It turns out that your father and Lao Liang are angry..."

"If you can have Lao Liang's anger, it means that you have encountered some accident, and you must have been seriously injured somewhere, I think it's your eyes. Saying that, Hurricane Tianshou opened his eyes, sat up, and stared at Ji Ran's right eye very carefully.

"Sure enough, yes. It seems that Lao Liang has passed on the pupil power to you. At the same time, he secretly said in his heart: "I didn't expect you to be loved by Lao Liang." He didn't even teach his own son this pupil power..."

"Teacher, what you said about Uncle Liang's anger and my father's anger, I know about the former, but I'm a little confused about the latter... It's not strange that I have my father's genes in my body, but Qi is different for everyone and it's not the same because of blood relationship, what's going on?"

"The mirror of the waterfall... That's the last thing your father left you.... He melted all his qi into the pool before he died. ”

"Is it false that Uncle Liang said that the mirror of the waterfall can corrode people's spirits?"

"Really, if the person who enters for the first time is not corrupted, he will never be corrupted, on the contrary, the corrupted person will never climb out of the abyss no matter how much you try to pull him.

You held it up the first time, so your will wasn't corroded.

Then the second time, this waterfall mirror will not have an effect on you, and Lao Liang must have told you something to let you enter Tan Zhong so that all the qi of Ji Wei's kid can be melted into your body.

The transmission of qi is artificial, and it should be that he carried out the operation of transporting it when you sank to the bottom of the pool, so that the qi can be completely infused into your body. ”

"So that's the case, no wonder I always feel that there is an indescribable force surging. Ji Ran paused for a moment and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Teacher, I want to ask who this Uncle Liang is?"

Hurricane Tenmori laughed and shook his head, "Don't ask about his identity." You don't have to know, you just need to know that he's the teacher who helped you. ”

"Why? Neither you nor he want to reveal his identity, why? ”

"Son, there are things that people know, and that's everything... And there are some things that are unknown and unknown, and that is heavenly things.

People who want to know this kind of thing must have the strength on their shoulders to bear this heavy responsibility like Mount Tai, now you are not qualified, not only at the level of strength, you are still too young, there are a lot of good times, we old guys just guard this heavenly thing....

Don't ask about this matter in the future," Hurricane Tianshou said earnestly, put down the mouth pot in his hand, stepped forward and patted Ji Ran on the shoulder.

"I got the teacher. What about Luo Nan..."Ji Ran looked around, but he couldn't see Zhou Luonan's figure.

"It's a mission, it's not been very peaceful outside lately. During this period of your retreat, Kirichi Ikari invaded the city of Jaco, but for now, it's okay.

The city of Jaco has signed a contract with them, and as long as the city of Jaco provides them with the corresponding materials every year, they will promise not to come to the city of Jaco..."

"Why! If they want to fight, they will fight with them, isn't there anyone who can defeat him in the huge Yake City?" Ji Ran said with an angry face.

"Ikari Kiri's organization is certainly not terrible, and those Sarks have nothing to worry about. However, there is only one person who can defeat Ikaki Kirichi so far, and that is your father, Kiwei. I can't either. ”

"Is he really that strong?"

"One man killed all the chief elders of the Paranormal Society. It's the most exaggerated thing he's ever done..."

"Then no matter how strong he is alone, as long as we are united enough, we will definitely be able to defeat him together. ”

"That's how young you are. Child, do you think things are still too one-dimensional, united? In this era, it is no longer possible, and now it is the age of money and profit. Hurricane Tianshou put his hands behind his waist and looked out the window and said lightly, as if he saw the future of this Jaco City.

"You don't have to worry about these things. Now go to the academy to study hard, and strive to be admitted to the judge, and then you will have an identity, in this era, only people with status have the final say, you know?"

"The student got it. ”

After seeing the teacher, Ji Ran's mood became a little heavy, after all, this Ikaki Chiri has an inexplicable connection with him, and he always defines him as his biggest enemy in his heart, but he has never even seen Ikaki Chehe.

As he was walking, there was a sudden noise ahead. "You don't want to live, dare to touch our young master!"

Ji Ran glanced sideways at the group of people, "Jiang Muqing?"

"Did he harass me first? I was completely out of self-preservation...."Jiang Muqing stammered, rubbing his hands together.

looked at the other side again, a boy was squirming on the ground with his hands on his crotch like a worm, and Ji Ran couldn't help but feel cold in his crotch when he thought about it. "Why mess with women!"

"Don't let her go, I'm settled on this girl, Lao Tzu just likes this kind of pungency...."The boy named An He's face was already blue, but his mouth was still screaming wildly, Ji Ran couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard it.

"Lightly move, lightly, don't cripple people..."Ji Ran walked over there, muttering in his mouth.

"Yo, Mu Qing, what are you doing here!"

As soon as Jiang Muqing heard this voice, "Ji Ran, you are back from cultivation", he hurriedly ran to Ji Ran's side, and grabbed Ji Ran's hand tightly with both hands. "What's going on, if I wait for the fight to start, I have no reason to be very.... That's. You know it."

"This An He said that he was the young master of some family, so he came to harass me, at first he just moved his hands and feet after his words, so I kicked him in the crotch to protect myself. ”

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless..."

"At that time, a group of them surrounded me, what could I do..."Jiang Muqing said with an innocent expression.

"Boy, get out of the way. Otherwise, I will clean up with you. The fat attendant pointed his finger at Ji Ran and said viciously.

I thought that Ji Ran was going to go up and have a good fight, but who would have thought that he would bow his head and beg for mercy, "I'm sorry big brother, can you take a step to speak?" Looking at Ji Ran's weird smile, the attendant couldn't help but feel a chill on his back, but he still gave this face, after all, he thought that there were many people on his side, and it was impossible to run even if he wanted to, let alone fight.

Ji Ran whispered a few words in his ear, and the attendant covered his mouth with both hands and looked surprised, "Really?"

"That can be fake!"

The attendant hurriedly ran to the young master, who was still covering his crotch and was in a cold sweat, and repeated Ji Ran's words in his ear, only to see that the young master suddenly sat up and said seriously: "If this is the case, forget it", and took it away.

Seeing that they were leaving, Jiang Muqing was still puzzled, "Ji Ran, what did you tell them, it works so well..." Ji Ran smiled again, and said the same thing to Jiang Muqing.

"What! What should you do if you let the whole school know!" The latter suddenly stomped his feet angrily, and kept patting Ji Ran with his hand, "You will compensate me for my reputation! If more people know about this, what if I can't marry in the future!!" Saying that, Jiang Muqing was about to cry.

Ji Ran looked panicked and hurriedly pinched Jiang Muqing's face with both hands, "Don't cry." If I can't get married, I'll marry you..."Jiang Muqing was suddenly stunned when he said this. "Why, you still don't like me..".

"What's the matter!" Jiang Muqing suddenly blushed, tilted his head to the side, and said shyly.

"Isn't that it... Don't cry, don't hear it. No matter what others say about you, don't you still have me? Let's go, I heard from a senior yesterday that a food court has opened on the West Campus and will take you to eat. As long as you eat, you will feel better all of a sudden. Before Jiang Muqing could answer, Ji Ran grabbed her hand and walked away.
