Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 2332 (Two Thousand Three Hundred and Thirty-Two) Pick Up

Quan Chumeng performed the ritual again, but after a while, he still felt that there was no progress, so he became a little impatient. He thought: How should I tell Elder Nie when he comes back?
He really couldn't think of any other way, so he decided to pretend that something went wrong when he was performing the ritual because he tried too hard and that he was hurt when Nie Huihao came back. That way, seeing that he had tried his best, Nie Huihao might not blame him for being too harsh.

A long time passed and Nie Huihou still didn't come.

Quan Chumeng was worried that he would come, but also worried that he would not come.

If he came, Quan Chumeng would obviously be criticized by him; if he didn't come, Quan Chumeng couldn't leave the basement at will because he had promised him.

Quan Chumeng continued to perform the ritual, but still found nothing.

He felt that too much time had passed, and thought: Is the sun setting now? I can't stay in this basement today, can I? How about I go out and take a look? If Elder Nie sees me going out, will he bother me again? How about this, I will just go to the entrance of the basement and take a look outside, and not make a gesture of leaving. If Elder Nie sees me, I will tell him that I am just going to take a look and have no intention of leaving.

Quan Chumeng reached the entrance of the basement, looked out, and found that it was almost dark. However, the area was so quiet that there was not even a shadow of a person.

He returned to the basement and thought: If Elder Nie doesn't come back, do I really have to spend the night in this basement? I can't do this!

Just as he was thinking about it, Nie Huihou came back.

[Chapter 241]

When Nie Huihao saw Quan Chumeng, Quan Chumeng was lying on the ground.

"What's the matter? Have you found out what happened?" Nie Huihou asked.

Quan Chumeng lay on the ground motionless.

"Quan Chumeng, are you still performing rituals like this? I have never seen anyone performing rituals while lying still." Nie Huihou said.

Quan Chumeng remained motionless, lying there with his eyes closed.

Nie Huihou shouted, "I'm talking to you!" This voice really startled Quan Chumeng, but he thought: I can't move, I can't talk, if I move it will seem fake.

Nie Huihao approached Quan Chumeng and said, "The candle next to you hasn't burned out yet!"

Quan Chumeng thought: Yes, I have changed the candles several times while I was waiting for him, but there should not be much left of this one.

Nie Huihao said: "Get up!"

Quan Chumeng thought: I still can’t move.

So he just lay there motionless.

Nie Huihou asked, "What are you doing?"

Quan Chu Meng still didn't move.

Nie Huihou felt something was wrong and said, "If you don't get up, I'm going to kick you! Let's see if I can kick you up."

Quan Chumeng thought: In order to pretend to be more convincing, I will endure it even if I am kicked.

Nie Huihao really kicked Quan Chumeng's thigh, but not very hard.

Even though he didn't use much strength, Nie Huihao's kick, who had profound internal strength, still caused Quan to feel severe pain.

Quan Chumeng thought to himself: Hold on! Hold on!
"You can't even kick it up?" Nie Huihou said, "Then how can you get up? If you don't get up, I will pinch your nose and lift you up by your nose!"

Quan Chumeng thought: This is too cruel! He picked me up by the nose? I know he is good at martial arts, but if he pinches me like this, my nose will not be broken, right?
Quan Chumeng was a little shaken, thinking: How about... I have some reaction? Don't let him pull my nose first, or... But if I get up now, Elder Nie will think that I lied to him before. If he knows that I still haven't found out and lied to him, then the consequences...
