Qin Manjing looked at the magnificent palace and elegant hot spring bath in front of her, and the whole person felt like a world away.

Obviously, the experience in the hallucination was only a short moment, but her state of mind changed dramatically.

In the past, she was afraid of her life, afraid that she might be a wicked person in the worldly sense, and afraid of the non-empty master who gave her life.

She had too many fears, which she had buried deep in her heart.

Qin Manjing understands that fear is a sign of weakness, and she is not qualified to be weak.

At one point, she thought there was only one way to help her get out of her bondage, and that was to prove it to everyone.

proves that she is not a scourge, not a scourge, and not a great evildoer.

Therefore, forbearance is destined to be her fate, and he will eventually use his life's innocence to prove her innocence.

But after experiencing the hallucination, what is she thinking?

Why should she spend her life proving something that no one else cares about?

Will those people easily change their ingrained impression of her?

Maybe after Qin Manjing died, they might still say, "The evil star is finally dead, don't worry about it anymore." ”

Even if she has never done anything bad in her life, she will still have to bear those infamy after death.

So what's the use of proving yourself?

It's just that for her in the past, it proved to be a belief in living.

But this belief has also been invisibly binding her, binding her to self-proof.

Maybe to think about it another way, she just needs to live her own life.

The outside world is just a whip to domesticate her. If she really cared, then she would be trapped in the education of others for the rest of her life.

Really cunning, isn't it?

Those people have done all their evil deeds, but they can trap her firmly under their discipline with a notorious proposition.

Qin Manjing exhaled a breath of turbidity, and the change in her mentality made her whole person seem to be unburdened.

Even the shoulders are much more relaxed.

Qin Manjing figured it out. She just needs to live well, do what she wants to do, and live the life she wants to live.

In the past, she thought that only escaping from the Qin Mansion could she be considered free.

And now Qin Manjing really knows that being able to jump out of the inner cage can be regarded as eternal freedom.

And all these sudden epiphany and mood improvements were brought to her by the water of Ming's state of mind.

[Host, there is a pill of Bigu Pill in the system space, if you are very hungry now, take it.] 】

After seeing Qin Manjing wake up, the system told her intimately.

But Qin Manjing was stunned, this time she didn't seem to feel hungry.

Why?

Qin Manjing asked curiously with the doubts in her heart, "System, how long has it been since I cultivated?" ”

[Host, fifteen days have passed. 】

Qin Manjing felt that this was not much different from the time she had estimated.

But she hadn't eaten for fifteen days, so why didn't she feel hungry?

After a long time, Qin Manjing still couldn't find an answer. So she shook her head slightly, pressing the question to the bottom of her heart.

If she can't think clearly, she simply doesn't want to, and now there are more important things waiting for her to do.

Thinking back to the group of dying people in the palace, Qin Manjing thought that this time was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

People in desperate situations will inevitably believe in the person who can lead them out of their predicament.

This person may become the leader of their leaderless group, and be entrusted with all their trust until they finally gain their favor.

Qin Manjing has been planning for her main quest. It's just that when she is outside the secret country, she can't contact anyone.

And this time it's a great opportunity.

"System, can you give me some Bigu Dan?" Qin Manjing asked tentatively.

However, hearing this, the system instantly became alert. It was distressed by Qin Manjing's thoughts.

Its worst fears have happened, and the host has become a waste trying to get something for nothing.

[Host, Bigu Dan can only be obtained if you complete the task and get a reward.] 】

[It is not a good host who tries to get something for nothing, and sooner or later you will be destroyed by your own laziness. 】

After listening to what the system said, Qin Manjing was a little annoyed for a while. She tapped her forehead with her knuckles, feeling a headache over a system that wasn't very cooperative.

"System, I'm about to complete the task of cultivating the first level of qi. Just when I advance the reward line? ”

Qin Manjing looked inwardly at the dantian, one side of her body containing the white watery aura was already overflowing, while the red aura on the other side was still just a little more than the bottom of the tank.

Each spiritual root is like a vat. The capacity of this tank is not large at first, but eventually it will become larger and larger as the level increases.

And only by filling the urn with aura can she move up a level.

The Twin Spiritual Roots meant that two cylinders of Spiritual Qi had to be filled.

And because the Ming Mind Water was too domineering, there were almost no other attributes of aura in its vicinity. All Qin Manjing could absorb was pure water aura.

Therefore, she only needed to leave this place to cultivate again, absorb enough fire aura, and she would be able to ascend to the first level of qi cultivation.

Now she's just a little short of getting the job done. That's why the practice of advance rewards is proposed.

Qin Manjing got up from the hot spring pool and went ashore, her dark gray robe almost soaking wet.

She summoned her aura and roasted her robe dry.

The system didn't figure out Qin Manjing's thoughts, but seeing that she hadn't fallen into the abyss and turned into waste, he was a little relieved for a while.

In the side hall on the other side, Baili Xuanjing and Baili Jingyu were still trying to find a way to escape from this ghost place.

Facing the majestic palace gate, no matter how hard the two of them tried, they couldn't push it open.

After thinking about it for a while, Baili Xuanjing decided to find someone in the side hall to help. The more people there are, the better the chance of escaping.

So he explained to them what he was thinking.

At this time, Baili Xuanmin sneered, he raised his lazy eyes and glanced at them.

"Second brother, sixth sister, don't waste your efforts, isn't it good to save these efforts?"

As soon as the words changed, he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Otherwise, you will die if you continue like this." ”

Baili Xuanjing was a little puzzled, and he said to them gently: "Now that we are trapped here, we have only one way to die. ”

"It's better for everyone to work together to break through that palace door and escape, so that you won't be trapped here."

Baili Xuanjing advised bitterly, wanting everyone to unite and face difficulties together.

But almost no one in the side hall responded to his words, and everyone still looked lifeless, watching all this coldly.

Baili Xuanmin just tugged at the corners of his mouth, revealing a slightly bitter smile.

The two were still confronting, and suddenly a man stood up with red eyes, looking like crazy, and he shouted: "We came in three months before you, why haven't we tried those things you did?" Do you think we don't want to escape? ”

"Do you think we are all fools and that you are the only savior? Do you think we're willing to stay in this hellish place and eat all that disgusting stuff? ”

"We're all going to die...... We're all going to die, and we're all going to die sooner or later. ”

Cries of despair resounded throughout the palace, and the hopelessness and struggle of these months could no longer bear it.

Baili Jingyu was also affected by the anxiety, despair and uneasiness in the air, and for a moment she felt as if a cold air was invading her body.

But she overcame the depression in her heart and tried to cheer up.

Baili Jingyu smiled a little unnaturally, and she said to the man, "If you don't try again, how do you know if you can't do it." ”

Unfortunately, the man had already lost his mind, and that deafening voice seemed to be just his last words of sanity.

He no longer paid attention to anyone, his eyes were fixed on the top of his head, and his mouth kept muttering, "I'm going to die, I'm going to die......"

The feeling of uneasiness in the air almost reached its peak at this moment.

And Baili Xuanmin just looked at everything in front of him indifferently, as if he had long been commonplace, and there was no turmoil in his heart.

"Baili Xuanjing, I advise you to give up what you want in your heart." There was a serious expression on his face that he had never been very serious.

"You're going to die a miserable death if you go on like this. Don't blame me for not reminding you, this palace ...... But it eats people. ”
