Chapter 70: The Choice
In the guard circle of the white-armored soldiers, a little girl about twelve years old, with a fierce and violent look on her face, constantly ordered the white-armored soldiers to rush to kill Changsheng's guards, her eyes were red, and her fingers were in the direction of Changsheng's petite shouting, "Kill, kill, kill me ......"
Changsheng had long forgotten where he was, but he just looked at the little girl not far away in a daze, with two tear stains on her face, and shouted loudly, "Sister Xiaohong, why are you here?"
This little girl is none other than the lost Xiaohong!
However, as if he couldn't hear Changsheng's words, the 'little red' in front of him kept ordering the white-armored soldiers to attack.
There are too many black-armored soldiers who can be defended, and in a few rounds, they will kill all the white-armored soldiers and merge with the immortal guards!
Two black-armored soldiers with blades in their hands rushed forward to grab 'Xiaohong', stepping on countless corpses and coming to the dazed Changsheng, leaving 'Xiaohong' still at Changsheng's feet.
Changsheng instantly woke up from his daze, flew in front of 'Xiaohong', involuntarily helped 'Xiaohong', and said, "Sister Xiaohong, how did you get here?"
"Kill, kill, I'm going to kill you......" 'Xiaohong' didn't seem to understand Changsheng's words, and grabbed Changsheng's neck, intending to strangle Changsheng!
"Wow......" Changsheng, who has experienced countless bullies, has also been stubborn and never cries, and never even sheds a tear easily, but now, seeing Xiaohong, who has been separated for five years, can't help but cry.
Grievances, remorse, longing, hatred, all kinds of emotions have surged into my heart......
Changsheng howled and cried, and at the same time hugged Xiaohong, who was half a head shorter than himself, so that Xiaohong couldn't use his strength, and he didn't know what to say or where to start.
At this time, Lao Suo suddenly appeared beside Changsheng, and said word by word with his hands behind his back, "The test of this level is to capture the flag and kill the commander!"
"Uh......" Changsheng raised his head blankly, and said with a crying voice, "She is Sister Xiaohong, and she is my only relative!"
"She's just an illusion of you, not a real ......"
"Illusion?" Changsheng was a little sober, and he also understood in his heart, five years have passed, Xiaohong is already seventeen years old, it can't be the twelve-year-old appearance he saw, this is his own fantasy, or it is deliberately made by Xuangong Lou to disturb his mind!
But even if it's just an illusion, it's Sister Xiaohong.
It's the little red sister who helped herself to stagger and stand, taught herself to walk, tucked the quilt for herself in the middle of the night, saved the delicious food for herself, and was beaten countless times for herself, and wanted to protect herself rather than die!
How can he swing a butcher knife at Sister Xiaohong?
"Kill her, and you'll have completed the test of the Capricorn Palace!" Lao Sue's words rang in Changsheng's ears leisurely.
"Test?oh, yes, I'm breaking into the Xuangong Tower, but ......" Changsheng looked at it again, the only relative who had appeared in his dreams countless times, and said with a wry smile, "Boss, I won't wave a butcher's knife at Sister Xiaohong......"
"That's just an illusion, it's not really asking you to kill your loved ones......"
"There are some things that I have never said to others, and I will only tell you because you are a person in the illusion world!" Changsheng shook his head with a wry smile, looked at the 'Xiaohong' in his arms, and said, "From the night I was born, Sister Xiaohong began to take care of me, until I was seven years old, Sister Xiaohong and the pillar were separated...... And just before Sister Xiaohong got lost, she also took out the change she had saved for many days and gave me a birthday......"
"Lao Yu said," Lao Su interrupted Changsheng's words impatiently, and shouted in a slightly cold tone, "That's just your illusion, not a real person...... If you don't kill her, you'll be eliminated from the Capricorn Palace!"
"Slash...... Eliminate ......" Changsheng glanced at 'Xiaohong', then at the black-armored soldiers who had no expression around him, and then returned to Lao Suo, and several words alternated in his mind......
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in Changsheng's mind, and Changsheng's thoughts instantly became extremely clear, and he gave his last order in the Capricorn Palace, "All the soldiers leave in a group......
The sonorous sound of armor scraping sounded, and the remaining nearly a thousand black-armored soldiers turned around and walked into the distance!
"Boss, how much time do I have?" Changsheng asked in a faint tone.
"Seven minutes to ......"
"Seven minutes, seven minutes!" Changsheng hugged the 'Xiaohong' in his arms tightly, didn't let her move, looked at Lao Sue and said lightly, "Boss, let's leave, I won't wave the butcher's knife at Sister Xiaohong!"
"Why?" asked the old man without leaving!
"If my butcher's knife can be slashed at Sister Xiaohong, then what is the meaning of life?" Changsheng glanced at 'Xiaohong' again, and saw that she was still the same as in his memory, sighed silently, and continued, "If I really can't break through Capricorn Palace, I just return to Hong Kong to find Sister Xiaohong and the pillar!"
"Why don't you understand? This is not a real person, and it is not that you are asked to kill your relatives, this is just a test ......" The old man, who had a leisurely face just now, suddenly became a little angry.
"Test, test me what?" Changsheng replied coldly, "Test how cruel I am, I don't want to talk to you, you can leave!"
Lao Suo's lips moved, turned around and flew into the distance, leaving a fluttering sentence: "Think about it carefully, kill this illusion in front of you, you can break through the Xuangong Tower, become the owner ......of the Xuangong Building, and have a bright future and a respected status from now on!
Looking at the back of Lao Suo, he thought that he had broken through the Xuangong Building and became the owner of the building, and then found a way to restore the meridians and acupoints, and began to practice internal kung fu......
Changsheng shook his head, drove out the beautiful pictures from the bottom of his heart, and sighed slightly, "I'm not a hero-like character, what kind of achievements and megatrons in the world, I don't have half an attraction to me!"
Time passed little by little, Changsheng couldn't help but think about his future, if he couldn't break through the Xuangong Tower, there was no point in staying in Shuojin Academy, the best place to go was to take refuge in Jiang Shouyi in Quzhou, but before that, he had to return to Hong Kong to find Sister Xiaohong and Zhuzi......
There was still more than a minute left, and Lao Sue floated in front of Changsheng again, and said with some amusement, "Boy, even if you don't kill this little girl, she will disappear, and you will lose the opportunity to become a master!"
Seeing that the 'little red' in his arms had become more and more transparent, and his breath was faint and almost disappeared, Changsheng raised his head and said, "If Xuangong Lou wants a ruthless and ruthless hero, I'm sorry, the younger generation can't become such a character...... Actually, the juniors don't know if they will become such a person, but the juniors have a bottom line, and they will never wave the butcher knife at Sister Xiaohong and let the seniors down!"
Seeing that Changsheng was becoming more and more determined and persistent, Lao Suo sighed slightly, "The path a person takes is the result of his own choice, and you just make a choice!"
Time passed slowly, and with a buzz, the 'little red' in Changsheng's arms disappeared, and Changsheng sat down on the ground as if deflated, raised his head to look at Lao Suo, and said, "The old man and the junior are here, goodbye!"
"Yes, it's a pity!" Lao Suo replied lightly, but suddenly asked such a sentence: "Boy, do you know how many people have broken into the Capricorn Palace?"
"Hmm, why is the old man asking this?"
"Since the establishment of the Xuangong Tower, there have been one hundred and thirty-six geniuses who have broken into the Capricorn Palace, but only seventeen have passed the Capricorn Palace test, do you know why?"
"Because other seniors are similar to juniors, they don't want to wave a butcher's knife at their relatives!"
"Wrong, very wrong!" the old man laughed, and continued, "Contrary to what you think, only seventeen people are unwilling to kill their relatives, and you are the eighteenth ......."
"Huh?" "How did Changsheng not expect this ending, doesn't this mean that he didn't wave the butcher knife at 'Xiaohong', and he actually passed the test?
"How is that possible?" Changsheng muttered to himself!
"Geniuses are scarce, and there are even fewer geniuses who have a bottom line and will never cross the bottom line, you are one of them, congratulations on breaking through the Capricorn Palace!"
It was as if all the strength returned to his body in an instant, and Changsheng stood up with a swish, but he was still a little skeptical in his heart, and asked, "Are the words of the seniors serious?
"In the future, you will understand that the master of the Xuangong Mansion is an honor and a great responsibility, and I hope you can pick up this burden...... Changsheng, you can leave!"
Listening to Lao Suo's solemn answer, Changsheng was already sure that he had broken through the Capricorn Palace, although he had not yet understood what the 'burden' Lao Su was talking about
Changsheng was just about to thank Lao Suo, and with a hum, he had already left the illusion realm and was standing on the tenth floor of the Xuangong Building!
And the Capricorn Palace is brightly lit......
