Little Mei came over and said to Yukinoshita Yukino. The latter turned around and looked at the fairy. The fairy who looked like a fairy was now tied up by chains. He was not lying on the ground. Instead, countless transparent glass-like things surrounded the fairy. It made him look like a cultural relic under protection in a historical museum.

This is his arm. Before he left, he was seen mumbling something and even making many gestures to make it. According to him, this is a set of various binding barriers, a mature technique, not an original technique that he came up with on the spur of the moment. Yukinoshita didn't understand, but she thought Li Mo's attitude was very good.

Yukinoshita Yukino asked back: "Do you want to know about Li Mo because of this Mr. Zhu Jin?"

Mei nodded, then shook her head and pursed her lips.

The aggrieved look of the little girl was particularly cute, enough to remind her of the abandoned kitten in the corner. And Yukinoshita happened to be a cat lover... Of course, even if it wasn't for this reason, Yukinoshita would tell the other party the truth. Because it was the other party who received her yesterday, which was a life-saving grace.

Li Mo probably saw this too. He saw that Mei and the celestial being over there were from the same group, but he saw this without using Mei as an experimental subject...

Is it considering your own mood?

Later, with mixed feelings, Yukinoshita Yukino told Mei about Li Mo in her eyes. Carefully recalling every detail of the Service Club, he unexpectedly discovered that he didn't know Li Mo very well. Hikigaya Hachiman once told Mei about his observations of Li Mo under his provocation. The result was very unexpected. In Hikigaya's eyes, Li Mo was a person who changed frequently.

Yes, change. It was like one day, his temperament changed drastically. It was like he had grown up overnight. Yukino had this feeling before, but when she asked him about it, he would just laugh it off. In short, he was a non-violent non-cooperative person.

And they will not cooperate even if violence is used.

Ah... when I think about it this way, what I stepped on must be just like a child playing house in his eyes.

Complex thoughts brewed in her mind. During the communication with Yu Mei, the memories of Li Mo would always come to her mind. As she talked, even Xue Nai herself was surprised that she could say so many things about him. She had only joined the service club for less than a semester...

"So, in your eyes, he is also an ordinary person? I feel that your world seems very peaceful." Mei said fluently.

Yukinoshita Yukino said: "In my world, there is no immortal like you..."

Unexpected.

She stopped mid-sentence.

Is the Earth really an ordinary world as I see it? Then... who is that naked blonde girl with a snake tail in my memory? And the thoughtful look on his face when he stood beside the girl. It was like he was exploring...

Yes, why did I turn a blind eye to it at that time?

Meihua: "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head. It seemed that Li Mo knew the answer to this question. He could just ask him later.

The two continued to talk, but in Mei's opinion, what Yukinoshita said was a very one-sided relationship. Just like an iceberg on the ocean, it seems to be only that big above the sea surface, but how deep is it under the sea surface? Yukinoshita only saw the part above the sea surface, and had no idea what was under the sea surface.

Judging from the current situation...

What Li Mo hides is beyond imagination.

"I'm back. Hey, are you guys chatting? Just right. And where's that tree man? Where did he go? I want to study him carefully."

Li Mo's figure appeared on the island again.

Chapter 649: Your Grandmaster is Dead

Li Mo quickly got the conversation between Yukinoshita Yukino and Mei, all of which were about their performance in the Service Club.

For this, he smiled and said, "If you have any questions, you can ask me directly. If you ask the minister, she can only tell you the information that you don't care about."

His smile was kind and amiable. Just as Yukino had guessed before, he had no intention of killing Mei at all.

It's not just because Mei saved Yukinoshita, that's just one of the reasons. More importantly, he has read the original work and knows that Mei is one of the protagonists, but in terms of plot positioning, she is more like a tool. She casually told others about the existence of "Tao" and the weakness of the celestial being.

It's just... the logic is hard to think about. But after meeting the real person, I can explain it a little. The reason why Mei was expelled by the celestial being was because she was opposed to using people to make elixirs, and then she was expelled by Lian, who destroyed her dantian, so that although she was a celestial being, she lost her power.

"Um, about Penghu..."

"Penghu? Is that Mr. Shu Ren's name? So he has a name?" Yukino said on the side.

Mei nodded and said, "Penghu does have a name, but it was not convenient to tell you yesterday, Yukino."

Li Mo was standing in front of Zhu Jin, untying the barrier he had set up bit by bit. Because he had set it up in a hurry, the numerous barriers worked together, making it much more difficult to remove.

In other words, should I realize that there is no conflict between these barriers and blow them up directly?

He didn't stop working, and asked, "That tree man, he should be a failure, right? I can see that he is actually similar to you, but the subtle thing is that the plant part of his body has the upper hand. If this continues, he will become a tree man sooner or later."

"Also, when I sent the shikigami to capture this celestial being, I also saw a lot of tree people in front of Penglai. I took a few more glances. Those were all human spirits that were assimilated by plants. The external pills you made are related to plants, right? No, why am I asking this question? I've read the comics, don't I know the answer?"

"The interesting one should be your master. I remember it was Xu Fu, right? He created this external elixir, but found that after taking this elixir, people would inevitably gradually transform into tree people. Even the most accomplished alchemists could not reverse this phenomenon. And the idea of ​​disintegration turned out to be that if the human idea didn't work, then change the body. Thus, the celestial being was created."

The barrier was completely lifted, revealing the fairy bound by chains inside. The fairy seemed to have accepted her fate and did not move at all.

Li Mo analyzed the past based on the comics he had read and his observations. Often, these past events that were treated as background in the original novel were indeed the knowledge he needed.

How is the external elixir made?

How were celestial beings created?

Although we know the general idea, the idea is the idea, but what is the specific method? Just like knowing the classic formula proposed by Einstein, can you make an atomic bomb?

Knowledge is knowledge, theory is theory, and practice is practice.

Li Mo is not a genius who can create new techniques through thinking. He used to rely on a huge amount of knowledge and mix them together. In other words, he borrowed from mature practices.

"So, by studying the tree man and the celestial being and comparing the two, you will know what kind of dilemma your master faced back then." Li Mo commented, "To the point that he was unwilling to take the elixir before he died."

"What...you, you said the Grandmaster is dead?!"

This one sentence made Mei seem to jump up.

She showed a surprised expression, as if she heard the sky fall. In fact, for the immortals, the master is the sky. He is the father who created them, the teacher who taught them, and the guide who led them forward... In the eyes of the immortals, he is almost omnipotent.

How could such a person die?

"No matter how strong Xu Fu is, he is still just a human. If he is still limited to the human level, he will naturally die one day." Li Mo commented: "Unless you learn from me and stop being a human. Like you celestial beings, strictly speaking, you are not human either."

Li Mo made the conclusion that Xu Fu did not take the elixir. If we put Xu Fu in his shoes, why did he die hundreds of years ago if he took the elixir? His wife is still alive, so could Xu Fu, who was more talented, not have done it?

It's impossible that Xu Fu's wife is more talented than Xu Fu, right? But haven't you seen the tree people transformed from the islanders here still alive today?

Therefore, Xu Fu did not choose to transform into a life form like "celestial being". He chose to face his own death, and then... there was the story of Hell Music.

"Of course, Xu Fu's actions before his death are just my speculation. But Xu Fu's death is real," Li Mo said.

"You didn't lie to me, did you?" Mei said.

Li Mo: "Why would I lie to you? What benefit would I get from lying to you? Would I gain anything from it? That would be too funny."

Then, he lowered his head and looked at Zhu Jin: "You didn't resist before, why are you resisting now?"

Before, it refers to the period after being caught. After realizing that it was futile to break free, Zhu Jin gave up resistance. And now, after all the restraints were removed and only the last chain remained, Zhu Jin began to struggle.

While speaking, Li Mo naturally made a low-level mistake by not removing the spell that sealed the opponent's ability to speak.

How could such funny scenes as "Why don't you recruit?" and "You didn't even ask me" appear? I'm not a character in a comedy series. Of course, if I can become a character like Tom and Jerry, then I can also become a funny character.

"How could the Grandmaster die?"

As soon as he understood the first sentence of the ritual, Li Mo knew the reason.

He rolled his eyes and said, "I say, are you guys protected too well? Xu Fu has been missing for so many years and hasn't even shown up. Isn't he dead? Your boss, Lian Zai, hasn't said anything about Xu Fu in hundreds of years?"

"you are lying."

Well, looking at this situation, I know that I can't convince the other party. If the other party won't cooperate with my research even if I remove the seal, I might as well beat him half to death first.

After mastering the technique of transferring life force and combining it with "pseudo-immortality", Li Mo didn't think that anyone could die so easily in front of him.

"Well, I'll give you a chance. If you can defeat me, I'll lie on the ground and let you cut my neck, and admit that your Grandmaster is not dead."

Without needing Zhu Jin's opinion, Li Mo picked up the insane guy and threw him outside.

"I remember you had a move called the Demon Corpse Resurrection, which was when you were at your full strength. I think pinning you to the ground in your full strength should solve a lot of problems."

Fists can solve many problems.

Chapter 650: Bad Things

As a celestial being, Zhu Jin has a move called Demonic Corpse Release, which can release a large amount of energy in the body and transform into a monster. It's probably a change from a life-size battle to an Ultraman style?

As if knowing the difference in strength between the two sides, after Zhu Jing was thrown out of the room by Li Mo, he immediately started his ghost corpse release. A monster several stories high appeared in the village, and accidentally trampled a house that had become a ruin. Unfortunately, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Li Mo used a little "power of the beast" and beat the other party to a disability with his fists.

Zhu Jin, who exited the state of demon corpse release, revealed his original appearance, but not completely the original appearance. He used to be a pretty boy, very handsome, the kind that could be selected in Johnny's... Oh, Johnny's has a dirty thing, anyway, he was pretty handsome. But now Zhu Jin's face has more wrinkles than an old man, giving people the feeling that he is a tree that is about to die.

"Considering the nature of a celestial being, this is quite normal. Come to think of it, Mei can sense how powerful I am, so why can't you?" Li Mo complained helplessly while holding up the blown-up Zhu Jin.

Li literally blew it up. He had never used his fists to hit a giant, so he accidentally used too much force and blew up Zhu Jin in the state of ghost corpse release. For this reason, he had to personally extend the other party's life.

If it's really gone, what's the point of studying it? Do I have to go to Penglai?

It's not that I don't have the courage, but I think it's troublesome. Anyway, this vitality is not important to me.

"Dragon's Relic" made soldiers and collected construction materials from all around to build the laboratory that Li Mo needed. He had accumulated a lot of experience in construction. At first, when he was in Inazuma, he found that the seal on Yayun Island had been lifted, so he and Yae Shinko and the shrine maidens were stationed on Yayun Island. The foothold was built by him.

Then... I built my own laboratory in the FGO world, in the Nordic Lostbelt. There was a shortage of manpower there, so I had to do it myself, right?

The good "Dragon's Relic", the symbolic power of the dragon race, was used as a construction team. What does this mean?

After tying up the dying Zhu Jin, Li Mo planned to send Yukinoshita Yukino back and study her carefully. After doing this, Li Mo had time to sort out the current situation.

The first task, of course, is to send the minister home. After sending her back to the main world, we can follow suit and send Hanasari back to Teyvat.

After setting the main tone, Li Mo knew that all other tasks were secondary tasks, insignificant and needed to be put on hold for the time being.

Back in the room again, I looked around leisurely. The room was full of Taoist cultural objects, peach wood swords, Bagua mirrors, red knots, paintings, calligraphy, etc. At first glance, it didn't look like a place for daily living. It looked like a place for Taoists to meditate and practice. Thinking about the origins of the islanders, it seemed normal.

Yukinoshita Yukino was sitting in the room. As soon as Li Mo entered the room, her eyes were focused on him. It seemed that she was waiting for him on purpose?

"What's the matter? Second Miss, if you want me to send you back, then don't rush me. I have already made two preparations. If it doesn't work, I have a backup plan."

One of the preparations is the back-up plan for the cat house. See if you can open the door of the cat house here.

The second preparation was Thor. She said she couldn't come, but not today. If she waited a few days and paid a price, she might be able to get Thor to come.

As for the backup plan, that is to take Yukinoshita back. "Spark" cannot bring people through. Li Mo also figured out why "Spark" cannot bring people through during the journey. It is probably because during the journey, it can protect the holder from being assimilated by nothingness. When leaving the world, there is a loophole to pull others away with you.

For example, if we can study the judgment mechanism of "sparks" and identify Yukinoshita as a part of ourselves, wouldn't it be enough? In mysticism, this kind of thing is not impossible. We have ideas on how to start, just use the "transformation technique".

Xue No: "I'm not urging you to send me back. I want to know what this island is like. Tianxian, you've explained it to me. But why did Xu Fu appear? Xu Fu is the master they mentioned?"

"Why do you care about this?"

"You have to know the whole story." Yukino sat upright, just like she did when she was in the service club. "Isn't it painful to know half of a problem but not the whole picture?"

"If I had known, I would have brought a set of comics. Well, Ms. Mei over there, please come over here. There may be some details that I need you to add. Then let's sort out the plot."

The story begins when Xu Fu of the Qin Dynasty took 3,000 boys and girls across the sea to search for the elixir of life. For some reason, Xu Fu built this island instead of returning to the Qin Dynasty. But he was still researching the elixir of life. During this period, Li Mo didn't know the specific situation, and Mei certainly didn't know it either, because she wasn't even born at that time.
