The Sword Dynasty - 279. Chapter 278

Chen Lichou bowed slightly to show respect to Ding Ning, then turned to look at Xu Lianhua and Xia Wan.

“I don’t want you to be with him.”

He was silent for a moment and said, “This is very unwise behavior.”

Xu Lianhua looked at this friend’s face that was dyed golden by the sun, and a self-deprecating smile gradually appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Then he lowered his head.

For him, sometimes bowing his head just doesn’t want people to see his disappointment and sadness.

“One’s life will always do something unwise…because many things are more important than reason and wisdom, such as friendship.”

Xu Lianhua lowered her head and said slowly.

The breeze in the valley blew on Chen Lishou’s body.

The breeze in early summer was very warm, but Chen Lichou felt a little cold.

He and Xu Lianhua have known each other for a long time, so at this time he fully understood the meaning of Xu Lianhua’s words.

If it was not Ding Ning today, but Chen Lichou was a disciple of Baiyangdong, because of friendship, Xu Lianhua would also sit next to him Chen Lichou.

But now, he didn’t want to sit next to Xu Lianhua, so the friendship naturally disappeared.

Chen Lichou’s mouth was slightly bitter, and he could no longer speak to persuade Xu Lianhua. After taking a deep breath, he turned his head and looked at Xia Wan’s eyes.

However, Xia Wan turned her head away, avoiding his gaze.

Chen Lichou got the answer.

He was also a little sad, but he didn’t think his choice was wrong.

In his opinion, friendship is also optional.

Obviously you can choose a bright future. Why do you choose to go to a narrower dead end with some people?

He turned in silence, preparing to walk across the shed to the other side.

“Would you like hot water?”

At this moment, a somewhat restrained but polite voice came into his ears.

His brows jumped, and he looked at the sound, and saw Zhang Yi holding a bowl of hot water, looking at him sincerely.

Chen Lichou looked at Zhang Yi’s eyes.

Zhang Yi’s eyes were very sincere.

“I can’t understand.”

Chen Lichou didn’t pick up the bowl in Zhang Yi’s hand, turned around and continued to leave. He laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly, and said softly, “Who would die with a bowl of hot water?”

Hearing his words, Xu Lianhua remained silent.

He thinks Chen Lichou’s words are correct.

It’s just that some things are only about people’s feelings, and have nothing to do with right or wrong.

“Could it be him?”

When Chen Lichou turned to leave, Xia Wan had already turned her head and looked at his back. At this time Chen Lichou was walking away, she said softly.

“will not.”

Dugubai, who had been sharpening the wooden sword earnestly, didn’t even look at Chen Lichou and answered her question with certainty: “If it were the last chess piece she planted, Chen Lichou would not say these things specially.”

Xia Wan took a sip of hot water.

Originally, a person was hungry for a long time, and even drinking this pure water would feel sweet. However, at this time, there was a burst of bitterness between her mouth and tongue.

Although there are Xu Lianhua, Dugubai, and Yixin around him, Ye Haoran and Gu Xichun are on the opposite side…In addition to the current Chen Lichou, three of the top five candidates in the talent list must be theirs. opponent.

She knows Chen Lichou’s strength very well. She knows that Chen Lichou is much better than her. If in normal times, Xu Lianhua and Chen Lichou may be difficult to decide the outcome, but now Xu Lianhua is extremely injured. How can we fight?

There is also Lie Yinghong, and the chess piece…” She took a deep breath and said slowly.

She didn’t say everything completely, but everyone present understood what she meant.

“Why hasn’t Lie Yinghong come out yet?”

Nangong Caishu, who was dealing with the wound on his left arm, said with a cold voice.

Everyone still didn’t know that Lie Yinghong was impossible to come out because of Shen Yi and Xie Changsheng. In everyone’s opinion, although Lie Yinghong hadn’t appeared yet, it was only a matter of time.

At this time, there were already 16 or 7 candidates on the other side of the shed. Both in terms of numbers and rankings on the talent list, they were absolutely disadvantaged here.

…

Chen Lichou’s footsteps are far away.

The scene was quiet again, and the silence was a little disturbing.

“It’s actually not that complicated.”

Ding Ning likes to be quiet, but he doesn’t like making people around him uneasy, so he calmly said: “With so many people, the chances of winning in the end are already high.”

The eyes of everyone around him were focused on him.

Even Dugubai, who was already cutting his fifth wooden sword, raised his head and looked at him.

“I don’t understand what your confidence is, but I think people always do some presumptuous things in their life, and do some things that make oneself proud.”

Yi Xin suddenly laughed and said sincerely: “Although even if you fail this time, it is already sufficiently presumptuous and will make me feel proud, but I still hope you will succeed in the end.”

Xia Wan didn’t say anything, but her mood calmed down somehow.

She began to understand that this was because of meaning… As long as one thing felt meaningful, her past practice also seemed to become meaningful.

There was a wonderful glow in her eyes.

She thought that this might be the true frankness described in Su Xin Jian Zhai’s sword scripture.

Nangong Caishu’s eyes also lit up at this time.

“He Chaoxi is out!”

She let out a soft cry of surprise.

A familiar figure that looked tired but looked extremely strong came out of the mountain road between the cliffs.

“Fortunately to have you by my side, otherwise I would really cry to death.”

Xu Lianhua smiled self-deprecatingly, and said to Xia Wan beside her.

“Fortunately, I didn’t have many friends, but I wouldn’t have such feelings.” Dugubai also laughed.

In their sight, He Chaoxi, who was also covered with blood, walked over without any hesitation when he saw Ding Ning and the others.

“It depends on the timing to make friends.” Yi Xin added.

Then he laughed too.

Xia Wan’s heart suddenly warmed.

She couldn’t help but laugh, because she knew that she might have just lost a friend, but she would have gained a lot of real friends here.

“I really don’t know how to laugh in this situation.”

A young man in a light blue brocade looked at the smiles of these people from a distance, and couldn’t help but frown and said to the person beside him.

This young man was Zhou Wangnian who had had a quarrel with Xie Changsheng at the beginning of the sword meeting.

At this time, the back of his brocade suit was full of blood, and several wounds even turned out white bones. A candidate behind him was bandaging him.

For some reason, the smiles of these people made him feel more chilling than the injuries on his back.

The simple shed naturally separates the people from the two sides. The people on Ding Ning’s side are still very few compared to theirs. However, at this moment, Ding Ning and others are just sitting quietly, not just Zhou Wangnian, they are here. Almost everyone in Fang felt that Ding Ning and others seemed to be putting more and more pressure on them.

…

Time passed slowly, and the sky gradually became gloomy.

From the beginning of the selection of students one after another, the interval between the selections became longer and longer, and for a long time no one appeared.

Zhang Yi’s heart suddenly sank.

In his sight, some practitioners wearing turquoise robes appeared…These practitioners were walking from various mountain roads between the cliffs towards the valley where they were.

The practitioners of the Minshan Sword Sect appeared one after another, and there was only one possibility he thought, and that was that the sea of thorns was almost over.

At this time, he was not happy because Lie Yinghong hadn’t appeared yet, he just thought that Shen Yi and others hadn’t appeared yet.

A strange noise sounded.

Most electors in the valley have also begun to discover this fact.

Xu Lianhua and Xia Wan couldn’t help but glance at each other, and at this moment, heavy footsteps suddenly sounded between the cliffs.

It was the closing moment, and almost everyone’s breathing became heavy with the heavy footsteps.

A heavy footstep, beating like a war drum, echoed in everyone’s hearts.

Nangong Caishu’s eyes suddenly widened to the extreme.

She saw the figure with everyone, but because she was the person who knew that person most, she was the first to cry out: “Xu Heshan!”

An unbelievable whisper sounded.

Nangong Caishu was right.

It was not Lie Yinghong who came out at this time, but Xu Heshan.

“how so?”

Zhou Wangnian couldn’t help but screamed.

Everyone knows that Lie Yinghong, who is ranked number one in the talent list, is really strong, and Xu Heshan is just a negligible existence for them.

Many candidates not far from him frowned deeply.

Xu Heshan is from Ding Ning’s side again.

At this moment, even if there is only one more person on Ding Ning’s side, the air surrounding them will become much heavier.

However, at this moment, all the voices suddenly disappeared.

Because Xu Heshan seemed to hear Nangong Caishu’s cry and suddenly stopped.

When the figure paused, Xu Heshan looked up.

He looked at the place where Nangong Caishu and Ding Ning were, opened his mouth, trying to speak, but he didn’t make any sound, but a mouthful of blood came out of his mouth.

When the blood was pouring from his mouth, everyone saw that his hands had been firmly covering their abdomen.

There was also blood flowing between his fingers.

At this time, his energy has been completely exhausted, and he can no longer hold his hand and let it go.

As his hands loosened, a puff of blood even mixed with intestines flowing out of the wound in his abdomen.

Everyone’s breathing stopped.

Nangong Caishu’s entire body froze, and his complexion became white.

A sword light fell from the sky, and at the moment Xu Heshan fell on his back, it reached his side.

The sword light was just a flash, and Xu Heshan’s figure had disappeared from everyone’s sight.

However, the picture at that moment was firmly engraved in everyone’s mind.

Long before entering the Sea of Thorns, Geng Ren said that this barrier was extremely difficult, and there was even a risk of intestinal puncture. However, no one thought that such a thing would really happen.

Even though such an injury may not be a complete fatal injury, the picture is really unbearable for many young candidates like them.

Zhou Wangnian’s body trembled violently.

“This may be the fate of being on his side.”

His voice was also a little trembling, and he muttered to himself with chills.
