《Disciple, Don't Cause Trouble, Master Won't Leave the Mountain!》Chapter 121: Consolation
Advertisement
"I don't want that. I want my sister to live a good life." Qin Xiaoxi abruptly shook her head. Tears flowed out of her eyes and dripped onto Qin Mingzhu's body.
"Don't cry... This might be a kind of release for me." Qin Mingzhu sighed.
"I'll call Jiang Yun. Jiang Yun will definitely have a way! !" Qin Xiaoxi seemed to have thought of something at this time, and her eyes revealed a hint of panic.
At this moment, the blood on Qin Mingzhu's body had dyed Qin Xiaoxi's hands red.
She didn't know what to do anymore.
"Jiang Yun..."
"Jiang Yun... Where are you?"
Qin Xiaoxi murmured.
But where was Jiang Yun's figure?
At this moment, there was only this large hall and the dying Qin Mingzhu.
What should she do...
"It's okay, little sister... I'm afraid that even Sect Master Jiang won't be able to save me with my injuries." Qin Mingzhu smiled, and a trace of tears flashed in the corner of her eyes.
"He can definitely do it, sister... You can't die yet..." Qin Xiaoxi couldn't hold it in anymore, tears burst out of her eyes, and she sobbed as she gently hugged her sister. "You haven't found the person you like... And you haven't... Seen the moment when I became the strongest cultivator of the Qin Family..."
"Silly... I've already seen it. You've always been... fine..."
Qin Xiaoxi hugged her and tears kept dripping down.
"I miss you every day. Don't go."
"Sister won't go..."
Qin Xiaoxi kept sobbing.
"I just want you to be fine..."
But this time... Qin Mingzhu didn't respond.
"Sister... Sister! !"
Realizing that something was wrong, Qin Xiaoxi released Qin Mingzhu, but found that she had closed her eyes and was not breathing at all.

"Sister..."
Qin Xiaoxi slowly opened her eyes.
Everything around her had disappeared. The only thing that appeared next to her was the old cabin.
Qin Xiaoxi was still lying on the bed that Jiang Yun had made for her, hiding under the heavy fur coat.
The sound of the sea reached Qin Xiaoxi's ears once again. The sky was already bright, and the warm sunlight shone through the cabin window onto the fire that had long been extinguished.
Although it was a dream..
The scene in the dream was indeed very real.
He Zhao who had gone mad... And her sister, Qin Mingzhu... Everything seemed to have really happened. The pain and sadness of witnessing with her own eyes the scene of her sister being tortured could actually still be felt now.
Qin Xiaoxi slowly removed the coat from her body, stood up slowly, and washed up.
Jiang Yun, who had been studying the map in his seat last night, was now missing.
Perhaps he was controlling the boat on the deck.
Qin Mingzhu thought to herself and walked out of the cabin.
However, there was no one outside, and Jiang Yun was nowhere to be seen on the deck.
"Jiang Yun?"
Qin Xiaoxi opened her mouth to probe.
At this moment, the sea had returned to its calm state. It seemed that she had not seen the Sun for a long time. Qin Xiaoxi bathed in the Sun as she came to the back deck of the boat.
However, there was still no one there.
Where did Jiang Yun go? Did he go missing so early in the morning? Qin Xiaoxi could not help but think, but in the next second, a terrifying thought occurred to her. Could it be that..! I'm still in my dream! ? ?
Thinking of this, a trace of panic flashed across Qin Xiaoxi's face.

"Jiang Yun?"
Since he wasn't on the deck, he must still be in the cabin.
"Jiang Yun?"
As expected. With these two shouts, a familiar voice sounded in Qin Xiaoxi's ears again.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? You're making a ruckus here early in the morning."
Hearing this voice, Qin Xiaoxi felt a lot better for some reason.
Although Jiang Yun's tone always made Qin Xiaoxi feel like beating him up sometimes, but now, hearing his familiar voice, she felt a lot better .
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yun said as he climbed up from the cabin below.
Seeing this familiar figure, she suddenly became much quieter.
"Nothing." Qin Xiaoxi shook her head. For some reason, she wanted to laugh, but she held it in.
"How strange."
"Are you up so early? Were you doing some shady business down there?" Qin Xiaoxi rolled her eyes at Jiang Yun and asked curiously.
"What shady business can I do by myself? How was it? Did you sleep well last night?" Jiang Yun yawned and sat down on the chair.
Qin Xiaoxi also sat opposite him.
"It was okay. Didn't you sleep all night?"
"I only slept after the rain stopped. After all, the Sea of the Northern Region is extremely dangerous. I can't let my guard down." Jiang Yun couldn't help but frown. "But it seems that you didn't sleep well last night."
Could Jiang Yun read minds? Could he even know that she had a nightmare? ? ?
"How did you know?" Qin Xiaoxi looked at him in surprise.
Jiang Yun pointed at his eyes.
"Your eyes are red. You just look like you didn't sleep well."
She definitely couldn't tell him that her eyes were so bloodshot because she was crying from a nightmare.
"I didn't sleep well. I dreamt of something bad," Qin Xiaoxi murmured.
"What?" Jiang Yun asked.
For some reason, he had been paying more and more attention to Qin Xiaoxi's affairs these past two days. In the past, he wouldn't have cared about anyone, let alone their dreams.
"I dreamt of He Zhao... That bastard. He wanted to continue attacking my sister."
"What about after that?"
"I don't want to talk about it..."
Jiang Yun fell into deep thought.
"It's alright, He Zhao, that bastard. When we get the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma from the Northern Region, I'll definitely kill him." Jiang Yun smiled at Qin Xiaoxi, and then slowly stood up, "Sigh... I still have to see if the sail is still working. Using spiritual power to control the boat is still not a good solution."
At this moment, Jiang Yun had already reached the door. He suddenly stopped and turned his head to say something.
"Dreams and reality are opposite. I don't know what you dreamed of, but... We will definitely save your sister and seek revenge on He Zhao... So, now, eat some breakfast and cheer up... Be happy..."

The Oresteia (Modernized)
All three of the great Greek Tragedians have written plays about the bloody chain of murder and revenge within the royal family of Argos. Yet theirs is in fact not a story of tragedy, but rather one of redemption. As they move from darkness to light, from rage to self-governance, from primitive ritual to civilized institution, their spirit of struggle and regeneration becomes an everlasting song of celebration to be heard throughout the ages. Forming a discourse set against the emergence of Athenian democracy out of a period of chaos and destruction, the Orestian plays are compelling stories of the tensions between our obligations to our families and the laws that bind us together as a society. In the beginning, we witness how a king’s decision to sacrifice his daughter and turn the tide of war inflicts lasting damage on his family, culminating in a terrible act of retribution. In the aftermath of regicide, we behold how a son must set out to avenge his father’s death by committing a most egregious sin. In the end, the sinner is tormented by supernatural powers that can never be appeased, but ultimately finds redemption and ends the curse on his house once and for all. Woven through all of this is the story of a friendship so close that it elevates itself to brotherhood - Where the blood of the covenant is shown to be indeed thicker than the water of the womb. In this very brief twelve-chapter modern rendition of the Orestian plays, I have chosen to place my focus mainly on the lives of the characters Orestes and his best friend Pylades. The chapters, each around 2000-2500 words, are split up evenly between them in first-person narrative. I hope that you will come to enjoy reading this heartwarming story, but more importantly, that you see how the conflicts portrayed in the story, whether human or institutional, are still much very relevant to our societies today. Note on Sources: The details of this story is very loosely based on The Oresteia by Aeschylus. And I mean very loosely. Other sources that I referenced for detail and inspiration are Mythology by Edith Hamilton, Electra by Sophocles, and Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides. You may also find that I have quoted some of these works, and others (such as Shelley's Ozymondaeus), without citations (average of 1-2 such quotes per chapter). I did this because I do not have the ability to describe certain scenes nearly as well as some of those writers. If you read a particularly beautiful piece of prose here, chances are it's probably stolen lol. Also, I wrote this during the summer between my high school senior year and my college freshmen year. It was the summer of 2020, and being quarantined apparently gets my creative side out lol.
