Chapter 367 Nirvana in Fire

Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng live in one room. Xia Lu, Master Guanshan and Lurking Dragon stay in the same yard as Gao Ge.

The Xiaoshan Sword Sect is rather quiet at night. It is said that the people here are stipulated to go to bed at dawn.

It is impossible for ordinary people.

Especially in winter, there are a dozen hours in the evening. During this period, do they just do nothing but lie in bed?”

However, the people of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect are cultivators.

Even if they don’t go out of their rooms, they can stay in bed to cultivate themselves.

Actually, the Xiaoshan Sword Sect is rather generous. Their disciples each can gain a spiritual jade for cultivation per month.

Of course, such a benefit is no big deal in the Dragon Court.

Yet, the Dragon Court and Xiaoshan Sword Sect are different.

They cannot be compared.

Lying in bed, he feels everything is quiet.

Gao Ge doesn’t feel like sleeping at all.

What time is it?

It is still so damn early.

Even night life hasn’t begun at the time.

Besides, there is one more reason.

He is worried about the contest that the students of Haicheng Cultivation Academy will have with disciples of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect tomorrow.

Lurking Dragon has told Gao Ge that the disciples of the Xiaoshan Sword Sect are no weaker than students of the Haicheng Cultivation Academy.

Yet, he is still worried!

He is worried about not only the students of the sword department.

Being with the students for some time, he has become familiar with them.

Therefore, no matter who dies here, Gao Ge will feel sorry.

The best result is that all go back safe and sound.

However, Gao Ge understands that it is impossible.

At the moment, someone knocks the door.

Gao Ge stands up and opens the door.

Lurking Dragon is standing at the door with a surprised look.

“No. As I expected, you shouldn’t dare to open the door!” Lurking Dragon says confusedly.

Gao Ge is puzzled by his words, “Why don’t I dare to open the door? Will the people of Xiaoshan Sword Sect make trouble for me at the midnight?”

“No. I am thinking that you should be afraid of someone knocking on your door after doing so many bad things.” Lurking Dragon walks to his room himself.

Gao Ge shakes his head and closes the door.

On the table there is an oil lamp. It is said that the lamp is specially prepared for them by the Xiaoshan Sword Sect.

Apart from them, there is no other light in the Xiaoshan Sword Sect.

“Why aren’t you sleeping?” Lurking Dragon sits down and asks.

“Aren’t you also awake?” Gao Ge sits down and shakes the pot on the table to find that it is empty. At the moment, Lurking Dragon suddenly takes out a pot of wine and puts it on the table.

“Since you can’t sleep, shall we have a drink?”

Gao Ge laughs and reaches out his hand to open the jar. Instantly, the scent of the wine greets the nose.

“Generally, if wine is put into a glass bottle, it cannot be long reserved. Therefore, it is nonsense that the wine is preserved in the bottle for tens of years. The correct way is to place the wine into the pot.” Lurking Dragon says, “Have a guess. How long have I kept this pot of wine?”

Gao Ge is a bit surprised and hastens to pour a bowl of wine for himself. Then he has a drink and shakes his head.

“In terms of drinking, I really don’t know much. Nor can I appreciate wine. Thus, I have no idea how long it is kept.” Gao Ge says helplessly.

Whether last life or this life, Gao Ge is not a wine taster.

He is okay with drinking.

However, as to wine tasting, he is no good.

“Haha, three months.” Lurking Dragon says that and pours himself another bowl.

Gao Ge is really furious.

He is fooling Gao Ge deliberately!

“It seems that you won’t pretend to know what you don’t know.” Lurking Dragon says smilingly, “I have tricked a lot of people who claim to have drunk various kinds of wine in this way. They all pretend that they know everything. You are much better. You know what you really know and what you don’t know. In this way, you can avoid being embarrassed.”

Gao Ge thinks for a while and agrees with Lurking Dragon.

Simply put, Lurking Dragon sounds quite wise.

“But regardless, I don’t think you like fronting!” Lurking Dragon says curiously.

Gao Ge wipes his mouth and says smilingly, “I feel that people must be simple.”

“If it is the other people who say that, I am okay with it. However, it is you who say that, somehow I feel something is wrong.” Lurking Dragon says with a sigh.

Gao Ge doesn’t respond to him.

“I know you are still worried about the event tomorrow, but you really don’t have to. Do you think similar things seldom happen to the Nancheng Cultivation Academy? No, except that you haven’t joined the Nancheng Cultivation Academy by then. Moreover, you didn’t stay there for long enough.” Lurking Dragon says, “Besides, this time, the students we bring here were actually ordinary people before and then become cultivators now, which is not a good thing for them. After all, they are still too young. The change of mentality is a tough issue for them. They don’t bring the issue up in public, but in their heart, they all feel that they are superior to others. Do you agree?”

Gao Ge says angrily, “So we just let them die here?”

“Why do you think they will die here for sure?” Lurking Dragon feels confused, “Why can’t they return with victory? Moreover, even if they die here, their families won’t feel grieved. You pity them and feel it sad that they die here. What if they are soldiers? It is an era of peace, but do you know how many soldiers sacrifice their lives every year? And some of them even die in the maneuver. Do you think the maneuver is only a game, during which they don’t need to risk their lives?”

Gao Ge is taken aback by Lurking Dragon.

“As students of Haicheng Cultivation Academy, they should grow up. To grow up, they have to put themselves in the adversary. Gao Ge, here is the question for you. In your eyes, which ones are the stronger, the students we bring here or the disciples from big families in Nancheng Cultivation Academy?”

Gao Ge coughs and doesn’t answer.

His answer is obvious.

“Not everyone is like you, but I can tell you that everyone hopes to become you. They all want to become stronger. However, they are much weaker than the children from the big families and cultivation schools. Their basic abilities are too poor. If it is a sheer contest between the Dragon Court and the Xiaoshan Sword Sect, why do we bring them here but not the excellent students of Nancheng Cultivation Academy? Because they need such a chance more eagerly. For them, surviving the contest here is like a nirvana in fire!

Gao Ge still stays silent.

He lifts the wine before him.

He drinks it up then.
