Night without Borders

Chapter 78 Blowing away all the fog

Qin Ming looked at the night sky, thinking about something silently.

The majority of his memories returned, but some details were still a little fuzzy.

"If my guess is true, then even without me, Qin Ming, there will be Zhang Ming, Zhao Ming, etc. The Cui family needs an 'identity' to stand there."

Qin Ming stood in front of the window, feeling a little chest tightness.

"The rise of the Li family and their sudden clash with the millennial family definitely has nothing to do with me. The Cui family could not have predicted such a scene ten years ago."

Qin Ming thought that his status in the Cui family should have come to an end. It should have ended anyway. This final stage happened to coincide with the attack of the Li family, so he was taken along with it.

Obviously, in such a large-scale and terrifying collision between Cui and Li, he had nothing to do with it, but he just happened to encounter it, allowing him to make use of his "residual heat".

He, like those old guys, was destined to be consumed.

But the group of elders in the Cui family all voluntarily embarked on that road, knowing that it would be a life-and-death journey. They were going to die of old age anyway, and they were willing to work hard for the Cui family in the end.

Qin Ming felt a mixed feeling in his heart, with all kinds of emotions churning in his mind.

"Every spring when flowers bloom, they will receive a special letter..." This is where Qin Ming first realized something was wrong.

It's the same every year. Reading the letters is the happiest time for Mr. and Mrs. Cui. Even Mr. Cui, who is so strict and even old-fashioned, will reveal a smile that is difficult to conceal.

"One of those years, I vaguely heard something, but it was so long ago that I didn't seem to pay attention to that detail back then." Qin Ming frowned.

However, he is experiencing his fourth rebirth, which has not yet ended, and he still has hope of remembering the details.

"The fourth rebirth is related to the five senses, subconsciousness, instinct and intuition." Qin Ming felt that he could completely tear open the curtain of the past.

He had noticed that the spiritual substances consumed this time were indeed too much.

“If I hadn’t entered the Thunderfire Alchemy Palace and received six or seven waves of skylight impacts in a row, and obtained a large amount of extremely special and rare spiritual substances, my new life would probably have been a little turbulent.”

Qin Ming realized that the head injury was more serious than he thought, otherwise he would not be on the verge of death and completely lose his memory. Fortunately, after this new life, all problems will be completely solved.

"To cure the old illness and to regenerate the new one, I have consumed double the spiritual substance." He had a hunch that this rebirth would be more intense than any other.

"Maybe when I wake up tomorrow, all the vague things in my mind will become completely clear." Qin Ming suddenly realized that he had not even eaten and had locked himself in the room for the entire day.

He got up and went out, eating something simple.

That night, when Qin Ming fell asleep, the golden needles crisscrossed his body, as if he was mending something. At the same time, the silver mud covered him from head to toe, as if he was applying the last dose of medicine.

The area of ​​his shattered skull was no longer specifically targeted, and it was clear that the hidden danger had been completely eradicated.

Qin Ming entered the final stage of his fourth rebirth.

In the middle of the night, he was awakened by sweat and whispered unconsciously: "I am Qin Ming, I have a grandfather, and I am not a member of the Cui family."

He calmed down. This scene seemed familiar.

Qin Ming stood up and sat quietly, then he remembered that he had woken up in the same way in a house in Yinteng Town. That time he ran out like crazy, rushed into the snow and ice, shouting.

"I was hit hard on the head by Li Qingxu and was in a coma for a long time. Cui Hong and the woman with the red mole on her right eyebrow arranged me to stay in Yinteng Town. I survived that winter, but I almost went crazy..."

Qin Ming thought quietly. Two years ago, he had nightmares in a coma and saw his young self and grandfather. That was how he knew his name was actually Qin Ming. Did the rebirth method in the silk book work at that time?

After he lay down, he soon fell asleep again and relived the dreams he had two years ago.

"It's not a dream, it's my childhood experience." Qin Ming's subconscious mind was still active.

In these dreams, he confirmed that the old man was his grandfather, and his own name was Qin Ming.

"Child, the methods in the silk book really don't work. Grandpa has practiced it for a lifetime but still hasn't succeeded." The old man sighed, but still opened the silk book for him and explained it to him page by page.

His true relatives knew that there were problems with this method. Although they explained it to him, they also warned him seriously that continuing to practice it would only delay his own development.

The old man said: "I have practiced and pondered this for a lifetime. I suspect that in order to master it, I may have to die once, but I cannot really die completely. There is no way to grasp this degree."

Qin Ming's grandfather whispered: "What is rebirth? Perhaps rebirth from death is the first step."

Qin Ming was too young more than a decade ago and didn't understand how difficult and dangerous it was.

Then the old man shook his head and said, "This is just an old man's random thoughts. After all, the predecessors who have obtained the silk book are much more powerful than me, but they couldn't get it through. Even the source of the silk book, the original people and their disciples, are all dead, leaving the silk book completely covered in dust and unable to be practiced anymore."

"Grandpa, when I succeed, you won't have to suffer anymore. I will be filial to you." The young Qin Ming said naively.

"Okay, then you have to grow up quickly. It's rare for a person to live to be 70, and grandpa is already over 50. With our current situation, I can only live for another 10 years at most." The old man touched his head, doting but also worried, and said, "Grandpa is most worried about you. If I leave, what will you do? You are still so young and can't support yourself."

The old man was disappointed and said, "Grandpa's whole life was wasted by the silk book. He devoted all his energy to it and lived a very unsuccessful life. Now that I am here, although your clothes are a little tattered, at least you can still have enough food. If I feel unable to do so, I will find a good family for you."

"Grandpa... another ten years? I don't want this. You can live a hundred years, and I will grow up soon." Qin Ming held the old man's rough hand, and finally asked: "Where are my parents? Let them take care of grandpa." The old man was very disappointed after hearing this, and said: "They were also delayed by the silk book. In order to practice the above method, they have traveled far away. Calculating the time, they may not be here, and should have left earlier than grandpa. I don't want to hide it from you, because grandpa doesn't have that much time left. You have to mature early and be strong so that you can survive without grandpa in the future."

"Grandpa, I will raise you when I grow up. What do you like and what are your wishes? Tell me quickly." The young Qin Ming urged with red eyes.

"Grandpa wanted to learn the techniques in the silk book in the past, but now he just hopes that you can grow up safely. Everything else doesn't matter."

……

In the morning, Qin Ming woke up and whispered, "Grandpa, where are you now?"

Now more than ten years have passed. He sat there for a long time, motionless, and spoke after a long time: "Is my last relative gone too?"

"Grandpa, you guessed right. A person has to die once before he can master the methods in the silk book. I can fulfill all your wishes. I really want to see you again." Qin Ming said softly.

He stood up and washed his body with cold water. His fourth rebirth was completely completed. Not only was his consciousness clear, he could recall all the details of the past, and he felt that his physical fitness had improved again.

"I may have nearly 5,000 kilograms of strength now. The severe injury to my head had a great impact on me. The reason why I consumed so much spiritual matter this time was not only to repair the old injury, but also to make up for the regret that my body was not fully functional after several regenerations due to injuries."

Qin Ming pondered and estimated that according to the current situation, if his head was not injured, he should be able to carry a tripod weighing more than 1,200 kilograms when he was first born.

The hidden danger was solved, and he felt light and relaxed from head to toe. He became stronger.

However, when he thought of his grandfather and the Cui family, he found it difficult to smile.

"After I entered the Cui family, the direct descendants taught me how to write the name Cui Chonghe and told me to remember it firmly. I did not have any contact with outsiders for a long time."

Qin Ming recalled the details from that time. He had heard someone whispering in the mansion: "It is indeed somewhat similar."

In fact, the entire Cui family had never told anyone that he had been lost, and Qin Ming had some doubts about this when he was young.

Now it seems that he is a "seamless connection". As soon as someone leaves, he arrives and takes that person's place.

No wonder the mature elder brother Cui Chongxiao looked strange when he saw him for the first time. After taking a closer look, it seems that everything was foreshadowed.

Afterwards, Qin Ming also thought of the "details" when his parents received a special letter.

Now that he has been reborn four times, the fog has been blown away and he can see clearly. Thinking back to that abnormal time, Cui's father and mother were very happy and excited. They once whispered in a letter: "Chonghe is precocious and has divine talent..."

If you think about it carefully, it’s a bit chilling, because there really is a Cui Chonghe!

As stunning as Li Qingxu, Li Qingyue, and the Wang family's eldest daughter, they were all taken away by outsiders and accepted as disciples after they were in their teens.

But the real Cui Chonghe was sent away when he was three or four years old!
"How terrifying is his talent? I'm afraid Mr. Cui spoke out of turn after drinking. Some of what he said is true, but it shouldn't be applied to me. Instead, it should be applied to the real Cui Chonghe, who is destined to be close to an immortal in the future."

Qin Ming believed that the old senior who was famous in the Night Fog World mentioned by Cui's father must exist, and Cui Chonghe had already become his disciple.

"Father Cui and Mother Cui are extremely cautious. My eldest brother Cui Chongxiao only comes back once every few years. They don't allow the clan members to discuss which sect my eldest brother belongs to, for fear of something going wrong."

Cui Chonghe's qualifications are even more amazing, so he will naturally be better protected by them and not a single word of information will leak out.

In fact, these are understandable.

Because all the major families are sending their descendants to otherworldly places, just like the Cui family, every year there are young direct members who become disciples of otherworldly people.

Some of the old men in the Cui family were originally from the outside world and lived there all year round. I think many powerful people from other big families are also in the outside world.

It can be said that that place is not a pure land. The forces of various sects within the Taoist school are intertwined and intertwined.

Cui's father and mother were afraid that someone would know Cui Chonghe's identity and that he would be targeted, and worried that something might happen to him there.

So, they raised another Cui Chonghe here.

"If you choose carefully, I might look somewhat like him."

Qin Ming thought that since Cui's father and mother were so cautious, it would be abnormal if they did not do something to protect the real Cui Chonghe.

"Two years ago, Cui Chonghe might have been exposed, or he might have become more confident and was about to step to the forefront and appear in front of everyone, so it's time for me to end it."

Qin Ming recalled the past, and his eyes became extremely deep.

"The Cui family and the Li family are clashing, and I'm just going to make use of my remaining energy." He thought of Cui Hao's grandfather.

"If Uncle Seven's grandfather hadn't been in that village, I might have been taken away by the other old guys before the feathered young man Li Qingxu showed up."

Qin Ming clearly remembered that his seventh uncle's grandfather had scolded those old men twice, telling them to stay away and not to come near.

Without his seventh uncle Cui Hao, Cui Hong and the woman probably would not have appeared and rescued him.

"Although I am still a little confused about some things, this is basically the case. It's all because I have completed my "mission" and it's time to leave. Cui Chonghe, who is close to being an immortal, is about to step to the front."
