Chapter 1031, Qing Shen and Qing Zhen
What kind of person was Luo Lan in the past? Lying in a ledge he could go three days without moving a bit, living a life of clothes on his back while at ledge 113, basically there was basically nothing left for him to be preoccupied with except for the matters of the Qing’s Combat Brigade.
According to his words, his brother was there for everything, and it was fine for him to mingle and eat.
It was only when Luo Lan started torturing himself that everyone realized that Luo Lan’s willpower was originally so tenacious.
Zhou Qi had once speculated that if the world of Transcendents was really determined by spiritual will to be strong or weak, then the higher the spiritual will, the higher the upper limit would be.
This spiritual will was not entirely manifested as “toughness”, for example, Li Shentan had never shown the trait of toughness, it was just that the inner world of this mental patient was extremely complex.
Zhou Qi looked at Luo Lan, instead, he suddenly looked forward to what kind of height this fat man could reach.
“I’ve always had a question that I’m curious about,” Zhou Qi asked, “If we really follow the mob’s theory of spiritual will to measure the threshold between ordinary people and transcendents, then Qing Zhen should have awakened as well, and it seems to me that his spiritual world is much more massive and complex than most people in the world, so why hasn’t he awakened? …… Or is it that he has actually awakened but didn’t tell me.”
After Zhou Qi finished speaking he fell into deep thought, if Qing Zhen was really a Transcendent, then back in the beginning on the Ginkgo Mountain Blood Road actually Qing Zhen would not have needed his own hand to make a move right.
At this time Luo Lan gasped and threw his weighted backpack on the ground, the whole person is almost out of breath, not far away from the accompanying doctor immediately packs up the medicine box and ready to come over, but was stopped by Luo Lan with a gesture, because they are now talking about a topic that is not suitable for other people to hear.
Luo Lan said, “First of all, I confirm that my brother has not awakened, this kind of thing he may hide from others, but he definitely won’t hide from me.”
“Then why hasn’t he awakened?” Zhou Qi asked.
“Maybe he didn’t think he could use it,” Luo Lan lamented, “You know, if someone else suddenly said to me that Transcendentals are no big deal, then I would definitely think that he was hypocritical, saying that he looked down on them on his lips, but actually in his heart he wanted to become a Transcendent more than anyone else.”
“Did Qing Zhen say something like that?” Zhou Qi was curious.
“No,” Luo Lan laughed miserably twice as he lay on the ground, and only after his breath had caught, did he continue, “But once I heard that people who had the conditions for awakening themselves, after a long period of ascetic cultivation and walking for 10,000 miles could potentially produce an opportunity for awakening, and then I asked him if he wanted to give it a try, and it turned out that he said that it wasn’t There was no need, and he didn’t have that time condition. He didn’t look down on Transcendents, but I know very well what he meant, in Qing Zhen’s opinion, he himself can do the same thing he wants to do even if he’s not a Transcendent, so there’s no need to waste time.”
Luo Lan was thinking in his heart, looking at the entire Barrier Alliance, I’m afraid that there really aren’t many people who have the same bottom line as his own brother.
At this moment, the sound of vehicles traveling came from outside the mountain, Luo Lan sat up and looked towards the incoming road, this valley had already been blocked off by the Qing’s troops, the person who could drive in like this must be Luo Lan and Qing Zhen’s beloved ones.
However the person who came made both Luo Lan and Zhou Qi a bit surprised, that sitting in the back of the SUV was actually Qing Zhen!
“Why is he free to come here?” Zhou Qi muttered.
“Nope, not my brother,” Luo Lan denied, “Tell the soldiers around to stay away.”
Zhou Qi raised his eyebrows, “Do I need to recuse myself?”
Luo Lan said, “No need, you’re one of us.”
Zhou Qi raised his eyebrows again.
When the car drove over, Qing Shen who was in the car jumped out of the car and walked over with a smile, he looked at Luo Lan’s expression and laughed, “How did you tell me and your brother apart?”
After Luo Lan made sure that no one was around, he said, “The two of you live in different environments, your personalities are bound to be different, your demeanor is completely different, outsiders may not be able to detect it, but I can.”
After saying that, Luo Lan still specially inspected the scar on the back of Qing Shen’s hand, when Qing Shen in order to let Luo Lan rest assured, specially left this mark.
Luo Lan let go of Qing Shen’s arm and said, “Why are you here?”
“Your brother asked me to come and take a look at you, to make sure you’re alright, after all, everyone has heard that you’ve been training like a madman here, and they’re all afraid that you’re going to waste yourself,” Qing Shen smiled as he found a small mat and sat down, the white suit on his body was spotless, and in terms of the way he was dressed, there was really no difference between Qing Shen and Qing Zhen.
Nowadays, Qing Shen’s existence was the top secret of the Qing Clan, more often than not, Qing Clan’s problem solving was done by Qing Shen, while Qing Zhen was hidden in the shadows.
This also made Luo Lan a bit puzzled, with his brother’s character, he must have sensed a huge crisis, and only then would he take every step as carefully as he did today.
Qing Shen was not a silent person, but now it was as if he was playing a dark game of chess with someone, and everything fell silent.
Luo Lan asked Qing Shen, “Where is my brother?”
Qing Shen laughed, “I’m just his double, even you as his brother don’t know his whereabouts, how can I know? A double has little power right.”
Luo Lan was a bit puzzled, “I’ve always been curious, according to your talent, as well as the cultivation and training that you received in the Fire Seed, no matter where you go, you can live a good life, so why did you run to the Qing Clan to be a stand-in?”
One must know that being a double did not give one any personal freedom, and one’s actions must be arranged by Qing Zhen.
If he wasn’t clear about Qing Zhen’s capabilities, Luo Lan might have been worried that Qing Zhen would be replaced by Qing Shen, but now he realized that Qing Zhen was a bit more cautious than he had imagined, and originally Zheng Yuandong, Qing Zhen’s personal bodyguard, had already been instructed to kill the double at any time once a certain cordon had been exceeded.
The rules of that cordon were very well thought out, and Qing Shen did not have this opportunity to replace Qing Zhen.
Qing Shen was unimpressed by this and didn’t seem to have any intention of replacing Qing Zhen to seize power, so this made Luo Lan a bit puzzled, what are you trying to do?
Only, Qing Shen didn’t answer this question of Luo Lan’s head on, but instead laughed at Luo Lan and said, ”This state of diligence and hard work you’re in right now is rather more like the Luo Lan from more than a decade ago, I’m a bit curious, what exactly happened more than a decade ago that made you suddenly salty? I know that was actually your disguise, after all, you’ve helped Qing Zhen do too many things behind his back, that’s not something a salty fish can do, so why are you willing to curb your own light to serve as a companion for Qing Zhen?”
Luo Lan sneered, “What do you care if I’m happy? I’m asking about your intentions for coming as a stand-in.”
Qing Shen laughed, “Right, Lao Zi is happy, what do you care?”
