Chapter XVIII. Choice
"You... Forgot? ”
Faced with Lu Qing's doubts, the merman asked instead of answering.
Forgot?
Forgot something?
The more Lu Qing listened, the more confused he became, and this merman seemed to recognize him as another person.
"I think you might have recognized the wrong person." Lu Qing replied: "I haven't forgotten anything, and I don't know the 'he' you said. ”
"No... It's you... You said... Will be back... Forgot? ”
The merman seemed to be a little urgent, and his voice sounded a little high-pitched.
But listening to the meaning of her words, it seems that she knows me?
Or do you think it's me who she remembers?
"You mean you know me too?" Lu Qing asked.
"Forget..."
The voice was already a little crying, a little frustrated and a little sad.
Lu Qing said helplessly: "I'm very sure that I haven't forgotten anything, you may really recognize the wrong person." ”
"Not really!"
"I won't be mistaken! Yours... Smell... And... Same as before"
The merman realistically refuted Lu Qing eagerly, and then firmly stated that he would not recognize the wrong person.
Smell?
Lu Qing frowned when he heard this, although the body of the half-step human immortal realm would indeed have a strange fragrance, but obviously the merman was not talking about this.
Because the mermaids live in the sea, they have no sense of smell.
So what does she mean by "smell"?
"What do you mean by 'smell'?" Lu Qing asked.
"The smell... It's the smell. ”
The merman replied.
Belch......
Lu Qing was speechless for a while, this merman doesn't seem to know much about human beings or modern Chinese words, so some of them are unclear.
But whether she is the wrong person or not, whether there is a mysterious 'he' in front of her, Dongying Lu Qing must go.
"I'm sorry, whether you deny the wrong person, no matter who that 'he' is, I have to move forward." Lu Qing said to the merman.
"No! He... It's stronger..."
"You... I can't beat it..."
Can't beat it?
From Lu Qing's point of view, this merman's aura is not so strong, neither his spiritual power nor physical strength has reached the 'immortal' level, at most he can be regarded as a half-immortal.
In terms of physical physique alone, it may be comparable to Lu Qing, but the mental power is too different from Lu Qing's.
It's just that she seems to have a natural affinity for seawater, which is why she can control such a huge amount of seawater.
In this case, why is she so sure that Lu Qing can't beat that 'him'?
"I haven't beaten yet, how do you know I can't beat it?" Lu Qing asked with a smile.
"No... He... than in the past.... It's strong..."
"You... No... Once upon a time... So strong..."
Isn't it as strong as it used to be?
It seems that the person in the merman's memory should have completely reached the "immortal" level.
Lu Qing wasn't sure what his spiritual realm had reached, but he should have reached or even surpassed the "immortal" level, otherwise it would not be possible for the helpless ancient demon of Liu Immortal not to dare to fight.
However, his physique is still far from the "immortal" level, at least two steps behind, so it cannot be regarded as completely reaching the "immortal" level.
From this point of view, the "he" in the shark's mouth may have reached the full "immortal" level or is only one step away.
Only in this way can the merman feel that he is not his opponent now.
"Can you tell me what's the difference?" Lu Qing asked the merman.
Although he had a rough guess, he still wanted to hear what she had to say.
"You... than in the past.. Body... It's bad..."
Really......
Lu Qing nodded when he heard this, and sure enough, it was poor in physical fitness.
"I see, 'His' is physically stronger than mine, but what about the spirit?" Lu Qing asked again.
He wasn't sure what level his spiritual power had reached, so it was better to ask.
"Spiritual... Be... What? ”
The merman asked puzzled.
Lu Qing was stunned when he heard this, and the merman didn't understand what "spirit" meant.
Then, he pointed to his Mud Pill Palace and said, "This is it, who is stronger in this?" ”
The merman was silent for a long time, and then replied, "I... I can't hear it..."
Can't hear you?
What do you mean?
Lu Qing didn't know what she couldn't hear, and fell into deep thought for a while.
"Listening" is generally worth sound, and the merman can communicate with him at the spiritual level through sound.
Could it be that the merman judges the strength of his physical body by the echo?
Or rather, to see the strength of his body through her special use of voice.
But the strength of mental power doesn't seem to be able to be checked in this way, so she will say that she can't hear it.
No wonder the merman doesn't understand what spiritual power means,
It turned out that she couldn't "hear" mental power at all.
From this point of view, it is difficult to say who is higher or lower in strength between himself and that 'Him'.
Because the merman can only judge the strength of the physical body, he will say that Lu Qing can't beat the other party, if you add mental power, it may not be.
Maybe the spiritual power is the weakness of the other party, then you can still fight, maybe the other party's mental power is also strong, then Lu Qing is indeed not an opponent.
But no matter whether he can beat it or not, he can't stop Lu Qing from advancing, this is not only for his own cultivation, but also for the land of Shenzhou.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I said that no matter what lies ahead, I must move forward." Lu Qing said again.
"Why... Certain... I'm going..."
The mermaid said he didn't understand.
She didn't understand why Lu Qing went even though she knew she couldn't win.
"Because I want to go." Lu Qing replied seriously.
If you go against your heart because you are afraid that you won't be able to beat the other party, and you stop moving forward, then what else is there to talk about surviving the thunder tribulation and becoming an immortal?
"Alright, you can go back." Lu Qing said to the merman: "If I am free, I will come to see you in the future." ”
"No... I'm not leaving..."
The merman said as he slowly rode the waves to Lu Qing.
The two were only a foot apart, and Lu Qing could clearly see his own reflection in the pair of sapphire-like pupils.
"What? Anything else? Lu Qing asked with a smile.
"You... I'm going to die..."
The merman persuaded again, with a slight pleading tone in his tone.
"I long for eternal life, but not because of the fear of death." Lu Qing looked at the merman who was close at hand, and replied very firmly: "If I stop at this moment because of fear, then my future path will be broken." ”
"Thank you no matter what, but I'll never look back."
Lu Qing was about to leave after speaking, and after telling the merman so much, he didn't know how far the freighter had run out, and he had to catch up as soon as possible.
"I... And you... Together..."
The merman looked at Lu Qing's back and said.
"With me?" Lu Qing turned his head and wondered: "Why are you with me, didn't you say that I would definitely die?" Don't you want to live anymore? ”
To be honest, this choice of the merman was somewhat unexpected to him.
Lu Qing chose to move forward in order to follow his heart, so the merman has been living in the sea for so long, why should he be with him?
"I... No... Again... Dropped..."
The merman said aggrievedly.
