Chapter 1974 Journey Towards the Temple

'Medicine at the right amount can heal. But at the same time, recklessly consuming medicine will result in one's death.'

Luo Qing Wei recalled the teaching her teacher taught her back then. The corner of her lips showed a bitter smile. 'I miss you…'

She had been living in this world for more than a decade. Her life here was much more relaxing and fulfilling compared to the live she had in the research institute before. So much that she hadn't thought about her past life anymore. Her life here was good.

Why should she think about her life in that place back then?

Slowly but surely, Luo Qing Wei was blending with this world.

But at this time, she was somehow reminded about her previous lives and the people who were left behind when she came here. Luo Qing Wei realized that she missed them.

She missed them very much…

…

After leaving the city, Leader Kui lead them through the forest. The place they were heading to was a bit far from the place where Leader Kui and the others set their temporary base. It was said to be south of Ming Family's territory and the location they were in was at the east of Ming Family Territory. In total, it would take some time to reach it. "If you hurry, you can reach it in two days or so with so many people around. But if you don't think it's necessary to hurry, we might need a few more days." Leader Kui had explained that way to them before they departed. For Long Qian Xing, it was fine to take a bit more time. Just as he needed some break, his soldiers who followed him also needed that. As for the war?

That would be a matter for the future. Right now, they were still in a relatively advantageous position and Long Qian Xing didn't have the intention to chase after Shi Long Kingdom deep into their territory of Shi Long Kingdom with only him and Yu Jin's army. At least, before Fei Yang Kingdom decided to start their war again against Shi Long Kingdom, he would refrain from making further move. It would be enough to defend this area. There was indeed a saying that offense is the best defense. But in this situation, Long Qian Xing was not going to risk his men's lives further. If they were to leave this area, they would truly be alone and that was far from advantageous. War was not about swinging one's weapon to the enemy. It was also about the supplies and tactics. Without enough supplies to last for a long time, Long Qian Xing would not start an attrition war.

Here, he could get enough supplies because the entire areas were covered by the three families. They had poured out their resources in order to make sure that they were able to defend their lands against Shi Long Kingdom. Long Qian Xing, Yu Jin, and Nan Hua got a share because they defended and collaborated with the three families. If they were to go to the north, it would be impossible for the people here to help them form the supply lines. So they had to wait. Wait until the right time for them to march over into Shi Long Kingdom's land. "You're really relaxed," Nan Hua said after seeing Long Qian Xing dictating a pace that was relatively slow. For a general and also a veteran soldier like Long Qian Xing, it was easy for him to march quickly with his horse. But right now, he was pacing his horse leisurely as if he was on a vacation.

"There's no need to hurry in our journey," Long Qian Xing said with a smile. "Don't you think it's more interesting for us to continue our journey in such a pace and enjoyed the view?"

Enjoyed the view?

Nan Hua looked around her and could see the beautiful landscape. There were a lot of trees, plants that was unique to this area, and many others. It was indeed beautiful. In this world, the pollution was not severe. The sky was blue and the night sky was full of stars. The plants were brimming with life and there were countless small animals living their peaceful life.

It was a good place. A very good place. The only downside was the war that had been ongoing for so many years. Countless places were dyed red in blood and it was only washed away when it was raining.

"It's indeed a good view," Nan Hua replied. "There are a lot of flowers here too." Long Qian Xing thought for a moment and then asked, "What flower do you like, Hua'er?"

What flower does she like?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes, not knowing how to answer. She had no particular preferences for flowers in the slightest bit. Looking at the area around her, Nan Hua didn't answer and only looked at them. Long Qian Xing chuckled. "If you didn't answer, how about if I prepare all type of flowers and handed them to you?"

"Some flowers have negative meanings because of the story associated with them," Nan Hua reminded. She was not very knowledgeable about flower language. But she knew very well that some flowers were associated with some negative meanings because of various reasons. Some of them were because of the story revolved around those flowers. Though, Nan Hua didn't really care about it.

Because in her eyes, these flowers were beautiful. They were blooming with life even if they knew their lives were short. They didn't seem to know that after they bloomed, they would wither and die. A flower blooms only once in their lives and then withered and died. A very simple and straightforward process. But during the time when these flowers bloom, they were at their most beautiful moment. The moment when they would be remembered and appreciated the most.
