Everything had always been difficult at the beginning. Once he cried out his pain, it became smoother and smoother from then on. His cries of pain continued until finally he began to scream loudly. The louder he screamed, the fiercer his tears flowed. Gradually, even his cries of pain were unable to alleviate the pain. He slowly raised his hands, inch by inch. His shoulder muscles immediately began to ache as if they were cramping.
The Xuan Shuang resisted the discomfort. His palms finally reached the tree trunk in front of him, stopping at about the height of his chest. He hugged it tightly and pressed his head against it. After a moment of coolness, even his spirit felt refreshed. It was especially precious. Then he felt his body ache again. He hugged the tree trunk tightly to alleviate the pain. But the good times did not last long. His arms had been hanging in the air for too long, and they began to ache.
Jiang Liechen was standing behind a nearby tree, coldly sizing him up. She was very satisfied with the fact that he was able to follow her instructions despite suffering so much. Perhaps in time, this child would become an even more perfect assassin than himself. If so, it would be the crystallization of his painstaking efforts, the most outstanding work of his life. In fact, it would be the only real thing left in his chaotic life of more than twenty years.
Ten years of sharpening a sword, until it became a supreme weapon. He would not hesitate to sacrifice himself as a sacrifice to it. He would let this child live in his place. He would let him live freely and freely, chasing after his unattainable dream. Even if he died, he would still be alive.
In his eyes, the Xuan Shuang was another him, an incarnation that he had wholeheartedly cultivated. Everything about his sinful body would be destroyed in the end. But the Xuan Shuang was different. Therefore, he could not allow even the slightest flaw to remain on his body. Seeing him curl up and struggle, screaming miserably again and again, it was very annoying. He stepped forward and said unhappily, "What are you crying and howling about? Shut up! "
The Xuan Shuang turned his head with difficulty. He smiled bitterly and said, "Look, I … I'm still holding on. Eight hours should be up by now, right? I think I'm going to die soon! "Jiang Liechen was not moved. He said," What should or should not? It hasn't even been an hour yet. Continue to endure it. " Xuan Shuang let out a blood-curdling scream and said, "I say, when practicing martial arts, we should also … cough, cough, there should be a limit to tension and relaxation, right? You can't ask too much of me all of a sudden, it will tire me to death … cough cough … "
Jiang Liechen said, "If you can't even endure this bit of hardship, then you're no different from trash! In my opinion, no one will die from this. If you really die of exhaustion, you deserve it. "
Xuan Shuang leaned his head against the tree trunk, hoping to gain some pity with his tear-stained face. Even though he knew that the results were minimal, he still wanted to give it a try. However, in Jiang Liechen's eyes, he deliberately avoided the important points and dwell on the trivial. He only noticed that Wei Xiaobao was moving outside the bounds of propriety, and his hands were dislocated. He coldly reprimanded, "Who allowed you to hold onto the tree trunk? You want to add a few more hours? Put it down! "
Xuan Shuang screamed, "Even if he killed someone, he wouldn't be this ruthless! Wouldn't it be better to just give him a quick death? I'll die, I'm not lying to you, I'll really die! " Although he said that, he still didn't dare to disobey Jiang Liechen too much. While muttering and complaining, he slowly put his hands down. As soon as he lost the support of his arms, the pressure immediately returned to his legs, causing him to cry out miserably again.
Seeing his miserable state, Jiang Liechen didn't show the slightest bit of sympathy. He only commented coldly, "Useless." Xuan Shuang said, "You're promising, you're the most promising. I …"
Jiang Liechen circled around his body several times. Suddenly he lifted his leg and kicked, hitting him squarely in the chest. Xuan Shuang was already on the verge of collapse, he was only holding on with the last bit of strength he had. After receiving this blow, he immediately fell to the side. Although he was kicked over, right now he was lying on his back on the ground. His four limbs were relaxed; it was much better than the hellish situation he was in a moment ago. He stretched his arms and legs as far as he could, allowing the soreness to flow through his body like veins.
Jiang Liechen said, "Sure enough, your foundation is unstable. The enemy won't be polite to you. Quickly get up and continue training! " Xuan Shuang waved his hands, but his arms were so sore that he couldn't lift them up. He only had the thought of waving his hands in his mind, but in reality he was just flicking his fingers on the ground. He said, "I can't. If I continue training, I'll die. This unlucky bastard … I swear, in this lifetime, no one can make me suffer this second time! I never knew that training martial arts was so painful. If I had known, I would have … I wouldn't have learned it! "
Jiang Liechen's face was ashen. He said, "Only by experiencing the most bitter of hardships can one become a man above others. Get up! "Xuan Shuang said," I'm not a man above others, I'm a man below others. Is that okay? If you want to be a man above others, then go ahead and do it. Are you the supreme 'Seven Evil Spirits' in the world? Sigh, don't just stand there and talk. Come and try it too. It's indeed very painful. You don't know! "
A strange look flashed through Jiang Liechen's eyes. He said, "Who says I don't know? Of course, the posture you're in right now is much more orderly than before. What's six hours? I once knelt like this for a day and a night. When the Hierarch sent someone to tell me that I could get up, my legs were also severely cramping. I couldn't stand steadily and fell down on the spot. Who would care so much about it? If I wanted to return to my residence, I had to crawl back on my own hands and feet. The next day, even though I couldn't walk, when the Hierarch summoned me, I still had to pretend as if nothing had happened and go to see him. "
Xuan Shuang praised, "Amazing! Don't your legs feel sore? "
Jiang Liechen said, "What a joke. No matter how unbearable it is, you can only endure it. No one will sympathize with you. At first, it was incomparably sore and numb, and it was difficult to walk. By the morning of the second day, it was as if I had been beaten with a rod. The sharp pain even overshadowed the numbness. With every step, not only did I feel weak and weak, but my muscles were also tensed up, so I had to suffer from constant soreness and pain. The Hierarch didn't even say a word of greeting. That day, he ordered me to go to the snowy mountains of the Western Regions to find the Nine Dragons Celestial Armor. The Hierarch's orders were not to be disobeyed. I could only … set out on foot. The snowy mountains were steep and extremely cold. There were no stairs on the mountain path, so I could only find a relatively flat slope and climb up. That day, there was a snowstorm. Coupled with the fact that I couldn't move my legs, it became a huge burden. I was cold and tired. I fainted a few times, but luckily I didn't die. Later, the snowstorm stopped, but I still had to go up the mountain. The Hierarch was extremely strict and never lenient with his punishments. I told you this before. In the cave at the top of the mountain, I saw the armor and also a strange person. He said that many years ago, to avoid his enemies, he fled to the Western Regions alone and eventually lived in seclusion here. He told me the name of his enemy, saying that he couldn't beat that person, so he had no choice but to flee. However, after many years of painstaking study, he was confident that he wouldn't lose to that person. Even if his enemy came again, he wouldn't be afraid. I vaguely heard of that name. He wasn't an expert, just an ordinary thief. Many years ago, he robbed an escort from the Jianye Escort Agency. Coincidentally, it was an offering that a high-ranking official wanted to present to the Emperor. He didn't make a mistake, but he made a mistake. At that time, the Jianye Escort Agency was still at its peak. They joined forces with soldiers and ambushed him in the mountains. That thief couldn't resist and died. When that strange person heard that his enemy had died, he was still somewhat reluctant. He said, 'I've been diligently practicing martial arts for many years just to deal with him. Was it all for nothing? I even went out of my way to find the Nine Dragons Celestial Armor, which is impervious to swords and spears. I planned to wear it and then fight him. Was it all for nothing? The most infuriating thing is that in order to ensure victory, I've been hiding in this bitter cold place all these years. Was it all for nothing? '"
Xuan Shuang half-propped himself up and leaned his head against a tree nearby. He was afraid that he would urge him to practice martial arts again, so he had no choice but to persuade him to talk about old stories to distract himself. He carefully agreed, saying, "That person was really stupid. He wanted to be an expert for himself. Was it just for that thief? Even if his enemy is dead, he won't lose anything by practicing a peerless divine skill. If he was really that powerful, he could show off his skills in this vast world and become the number one under the heavens. "
Jiang Liechen smiled faintly and said, "That's right. That person is as smart as you. At that time he said, 'I've been in this place for many years. I should loosen up my muscles and bones. Otherwise, my old bones will freeze. I don't see any outsiders here all year round. I can only compete with myself. It's extremely boring. You can be considered to have some skill to be able to reach this snowy mountain peak. Come and exchange a few moves with me. If I'm happy, maybe I'll give you some pointers. 'I didn't want to complicate things. Besides, I don't like to fight. The situation that day was also not suitable for a martial arts duel. Therefore, I politely declined and flattered him by saying, 'Senior's martial arts are superior. Junior knows he is no match for you. I willingly admit defeat.' That strange man said that he should take care of the younger generation since I was still young. Therefore, he only used seventy percent of his strength to fight me. I saw that he was a straightforward person. Therefore, I told him frankly that my leg was sick today and it was not convenient for me to fight. That strange man had lived alone for a long time. His temperament was unpredictable. He said, 'You'll only come to this snowy mountain once in your life. If today is not suitable, then you can stay here. When the time is right, fight me and I'll let you go. ' In the end, he didn't hesitate to give me the Nine Dragons Celestial Armor if I won. This condition could be considered generous. Therefore, I agreed and had a duel with him. What do you think the result was? "
Xuan Shuang said, "Nonsense! No … no, no, I mean, Shifu, your martial arts are superior. Nobody is your match. That strange man on the mountaintop was also defeated by you. "
Jiang Liechen said, "At that time, my legs really couldn't move. Therefore, I pretended to be arrogant and drew a circle on the ground with the snow. I said that I would stand in the circle and fight with him. If I moved my position, I would lose. That strange man thought that I was looking down on him. Therefore, he used all his strength to fight me. It looked like I was at a disadvantage, but in fact I was at a disadvantage. However, that man's martial arts were not bad. After we fought to a stalemate, he suddenly stopped. At the same time, he took off his armor and gave it to me. At that time, the mountain was sealed by the heavy snow. He was very familiar with the terrain. He pointed out a way for me to leave. I asked him if he was willing to go down the mountain with me. At that time, I had also fought many martial arts masters. I knew that with his martial arts, he would be able to make a name for himself in the Wulin world. That man just shook his head. He said that he had lived in the mountain for a long time. This snowy mountain was his home. He would never abandon him. Moreover, he had lived in seclusion for several years. He was not used to the treacherous and unpredictable world outside. Finally, he mocked himself and said, 'How can I be considered a martial arts master? I have lived in seclusion for many years. I boasted that I was invincible. But I couldn't even defeat a child standing still. The younger generation will surpass us in time. I won't go down and join in the fun. ' After going down the mountain, I hurried all the way back to the headquarters. I gave the armor to the late Hierarch. "
