Deep in the mountains and forests, where the mud grows, the disgusting smell wafts freely in this place, and the mud bubbling and blistering is equally disgusting.

Li Li's whole body was soaked in the mud here, this was the third day he had stayed, the mud covered his whole body, from the beginning of the non-stop vomiting, to now his eyes are blurred, as if he has lost his sense of smell, Li Li felt that his whole body was about to die.

"Click" a voice woke up the dazed Li Wei, he finally saw his goal here, and waited for three days to arrive, "Golden Toad" alias Toad, in this mud, the golden toad he must not be able to find, the three-legged toad is a legendary thing, he will definitely not find it, but the toad he thinks can also be added.

Holding his breath, his back bent slightly, his eyes sharpened, thanks to allowing him to do all kinds of strange movements for so long, now even if he has been hungry for three days, he can still lift a trace of strength again.

"Snap" the toad jumped again, closer to him, looking at the toad that was only an arm long, Li Wei finally couldn't bear it, his legs were in the mud and then his arms stretched out suddenly, the speed seemed to be as fast as lightning, but his speed was fast, the toad was faster, a jump suddenly plunged into the mud, Li Wei rushed to the place where the toad disappeared and slashed but found nothing.

Under the hammer of his arm, more mud and rotten leaves were splashed, and Li Li scolded angrily and helplessly declared that he had failed, after all, after waving his hand vigorously just now, the strength in his body was gradually disappearing, and he really didn't have the strength to stay in this kind of place for three days again.

Li Wei felt sour and weak when he walked, rubbed back to his residence step by step, pushed the door open, and the stench rushed directly in, making Guan Ning, who was drinking, vomit out all of a sudden, and then looked at the clay figure at the door in shock, while Wang Yue on the opposite side looked pity, "Failed?" ”

"Well, I almost didn't catch it." Li Li skillfully fetched water, then stood aside and poured it down from head to toe, and the mud on his body slowly flowed down with the impact of the water, revealing Li Wei's original appearance.

Guan Ning patted his chest vigorously, suppressed the undulating vomiting, turned around and went to the house to take out the charcoal basin, it was already spring, and the charcoal basin had not been used for a long time, but when Guan Ning brought it out, it was still burning, and skillfully placed the charcoal basin not far from Li Wei's side, and then took the bucket in Li Wei's hand, bent down to draw water, and poured it on Li Wei's body, with skillful movements, as if he had done it many times.

"How did it fail?" Wang Yue came over, looked at Li Li, who was covered in mud, and was amazed, "Just smell the smell on your body and know that you haven't been lazy in the past three days, you really soaked in it for three days, how did you fall short?" ”

"It's not as fast as it is!" Li Wei closed his eyes and felt the feeling of clean well water washing over his body,

"Speed?" Wang Yue frowned, "When you make a move, how far away is it from you?" ”

"Less than an arm's length," Li Li said with his fists clenched, "as if within reach!" ”

"Have you washed it?" Wang Yue looked at the puddle of black water on the ground and Li Wei, who was wet, "After washing, quickly wipe it clean and change clothes to eat." ”

Li Li answered, went back to the house to dry himself, changed into dry clothes, looked at the wet set of clothes on the ground, Li Li Tang struggled for a long time, it was best to pick it up and throw it in the basin, and wash it himself after eating.

When Li Li came out again, all the food on the table was already steaming, and his bowl was filled with soup, and there was a pot of steaming rice wine next to the bowl.

sat down silently, ate and drank, slowly recovered some of his strength, and his body became a lot warmer, the moment he put down the dishes and chopsticks, Wang Yue, who was drinking on the side, began to criticize him.

"Do you know what's wrong with this failure?"

"I can't bear to keep waiting, and it's too slow." Li Wei did not deny the reason for his failure, in fact, if he waited patiently for a few minutes, he still had hope of catching the toad.

"I'll tell you the most basic thing about being an Assassin today." Wang Yue tapped Li Li's head hard with his chopsticks, "There are two kinds of assassins, one is an assassin and the other is called a killer.

Assassins, you need to step on the point in advance, find the way, and the most important lurk, and finally the killing blow, the lurking may only take a while, it may take a long time, it depends on how you act at the moment of killing, no matter how difficult the training is, no matter how strong the talent of the person is, as long as you stay in one place for more than two days without eating or drinking, all your physical fitness will be greatly affected.

No one can starve for two or three days or even remain motionless in the middle, and still maintain a very perfect ability to move at the moment of action, that is not a person, that is a camel on the other side of the Western Regions!

Assassin this kind of thing, you only have one chance, if you succeed, you may still be able to escape, if you fail, don't think about what, a hit misses and then then run away This bullshit saying, if you miss a hit, you are in front of people's eyes, whether people run or catch is only in a thought, the moment you shoot, you have already handed over your life.

So this opportunity, either you have a full grasp, or you have no way to retreat and have to make a move, otherwise you must not make a move, assassin, is on the edge of life and death, success, take advantage of the chaos you still have a chance to live, failure, you are only left with death. ”

Li Wei listened beside him, without saying a word, lowering his head and drooping his eyelids, as if he was an old monk who had settled down, and did not raise his head until Wang Yue finished speaking.

Looking at Li Wei, who was low-eyed and pleasing to the eye, Wang Yue pointed to the room, "The room newly made for you, let's go, go in and have a look." ”

Li Wei followed Wang Yue into the room, spacious, that is, spacious, except for a table and a bed in the middle of the room, there were no other decorations and utensils, and the empty room made people feel very empty as soon as they entered.

"Well, where are you going to sit for a while?" Wang Yue poured his mouth at the bed.

Li Li didn't ask the reason, obediently walked to the bed and then lay down quietly, closed his eyes and began to pretend to sleep, for so long, he has changed a lot, no longer talking, no longer so curious, no longer jumping around all day, he is used to silence, used to drinking two glasses of wine in his spare time, the amount of wine has become better and better, accustomed to obeying Wang Yue's words, what remains unchanged is the tattered puppet in his arms.

Wang Yue saw that Li Wei was so sensible, he also nodded, turned around and walked out, out of the door, just collapsed out, raised his hand to pull a rope hanging on the wall, and rolled down several zhang of black cloth on the roof, covering almost the entire room, when Wang Yue closed the door, the last light in the room disappeared.

Li Wei, who was lying on the bed, felt that the room was dark, he didn't move, he didn't move when he heard the sound of the door closing, and when he heard the sound of the door being locked, Li Li slowly opened his eyes, and sure enough, it was the same as he felt, and the whole room had become dark.

Li Li sat on the bed, with his back against the wall, one leg bent, one leg straight, and his two arms rested on his bent knees, waiting quietly, the whole room was empty as if his breath could produce echoes, but except for his own breathing, there was no other sound in the whole room.

Time slipped away slowly as Li Wei was meditating, and outside the room, Guan Ning looked at the room completely covered by a black cloth with a worried expression.

"Is it okay to train him for this so early?"

"He's too impatient." Wang Yue didn't have his usual giggling, and he didn't have the dead-skinned look he looked like when he drank, "It's really early to do this now, but serious illness must be taken seriously." ”

"Any news?" Guan Ning looked at Wang Yue, who looked serious and didn't look like himself at all, and felt a little flustered in his heart.

"Niu Er set out with a large army to sweep the grassland, and wherever he passed, he would die if he didn't surrender, and Lou Ban also pulled up thousands of troops again, and Kebineng also brought back more than 10,000 elites, which is almost the old book of these two people." Wang Yue touched a pot of old wine from his arms for a long time and took a good sip.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Guan Ning's face changed, "Whose idea is this!" ”

"Tian Guorang won't be so anxious, his son looks stupid and is actually a scheming person." Wang Yue pursed his lips, "As for that Cao Zhang, if he dares to say these things himself, those disciples of yours dare to follow him?" ”

"A bunch of fools!" Guan Ning couldn't help but scold, "You're in such a hurry, do you want to find death!" ”

"What if they do succeed?" Wang Yue took a sip of wine, and unconsciously let out a "tsk" sound in his mouth, "Look at their posture is to use Youzhou as the foundation to create another Gongsun family that is said to be the king."

"It won't work." Guan Ning sighed, "This group of children is too anxious, they can't succeed." ”

"Because of Cao Cao?"

"Hmph, Cao Cao doesn't bother to care about the between them, but they do ignore the other person."

"Which one?" Wang Yue thought about it carefully, as a top assassin, he naturally has his own news channels, and it can even be said that he can live until now, his news network that is all over the Han Dynasty, up to the palace, and down to the poor people, can be said to have made a great contribution, otherwise how did his nominal apprentice Shi A get into trouble in the school mansion, he really couldn't think of anyone else who could stop Cao Zhang after thinking about it carefully for a long time.

"Cao Pi! Or add Cao Zhi! Guan Ning said a name faintly, "This time, it's hard for Tian Guorang." ”

Guan Ning can already imagine Tian Guorang's future days, this time Li Hao and the others only took into account Cao Cao's feelings, and it is not difficult to get the land of Youzhou from Cao Cao, but if Cao Pi and Cao Zhi join forces, Tian Guorang will definitely not be able to stay in Youzhou, and even Cao Zhang himself may be taken away, at that time, the situation of Li Hao and others is too embarrassing.

"Forget it, it's up to the mother when the child is older, let them go by themselves, believe in them." Wang Yue stretched out his hand and patted Guan Ning's shoulder, "Even if you fail again this time, will you, the old guy who inherited the legacy of your disciple, give up?" ”

"Don't let go of that fart without a score, you will inherit the will of your disciple!" Guan Ning suddenly yelled at Wang Yue and began to scold, "What's the matter, I can't eat dinner if I don't want to!" ”

"Hey, hey... Hey, hey.." Wang Yue looked at Guan Ning, who was angry, just bowed his head there and smiled, and he didn't make any noise.

No matter how long Guan Ning and Wang Yue discussed outside the door and what they said, Li Li had been half-sitting on the bed for a full time, but there was still no movement.

The pitch-black environment made Li Li unable to see anything even if he tried to open his eyes wide, but after closing his eyes, his heart really couldn't calm down.

After meditating again for a long time, Li Wei began to try to get out of bed and move slowly, he remembered that there should be nothing else in the whole room except for a table in the middle, he slowly moved along the edge of the bed to the wall, and then began to circle along the wall.

He touched the window, but found that it was closed, and he couldn't open the door, not even a crack.

This is different from before, even if it was two days, three days or even these days, he couldn't move, but he was not as anxious as he is now, even if he can move around at will, he may not even worry about eating and drinking, but in this dark environment, he is still very uncomfortable.

Li Wei, who had walked around the wall several times, came to the bed again, he slowly lay down, closed his eyes, and began to recall all his actions for a while, and even reflect.

At dinner, Wang Yue opened the door and sent him in, Li Wei wanted to try to open his mouth to say something, but looking at Wang Yue, who was silent, he just opened his mouth recently and still didn't make a sound.

The food was placed on the table, and a small oil lamp was brought with him, which was lit and placed next to the meal, and after Wang Yue went out, he closed and locked the door again.

Li Li slowly walked to the side of the table, sat directly on the ground, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, and began to eat silently, just halfway through the meal, the oil lamp shook for a while and then slowly went out, Li Li picked up the oil lamp and touched it carefully, "There is no oil, is it only enough for yourself to eat a meal..."

Continue to grope your way to your own dishes and chopsticks, eat your meal quickly in the dark, and then go back to bed again, reminiscing about your youthful years.

On the first day, Li Li recalled his time during this time, he wanted to kill his mother, the woman who had beaten him since he was a child, and he could no longer find any traces of her.

He thought of his father, who was already vague, and after thinking about it for a long time, he really couldn't remember what his father looked like.

As for the grandfather, it was even more vague with only one back, and it was so unclear.

He recalled the time when he was in Bingzhou, he recalled the time when he went into battle to kill the enemy, and recalled the time when the villagers died in front of him one after another.

He recalled the first time he saw the old man, when the old man was sitting on his knees at the door of his house, and he would not go in no matter what his mother said.

He also thought about the first lesson he taught himself, "Find what you want to do, find what you can do, find what you need to do." ”

Li Li thought about it carefully, he only had one thing he wanted to do but couldn't do, he was barely doing what he needed to do, but he still didn't know what he could do, and even what he wanted to do was not what the old man said.

recalled his life for a long time, sighed for half a night's fate, and then fell asleep in the dark.

Wait for the next day, maybe the next day, when Li Wei opened his eyes, what he saw was still the same darkness, but he smelled a different question, it was the smell of the oil lamp after it burned out.

"I haven't slept so dead for a long time, and I don't know when people come in, hehe" Li Wei said to himself, and then slowly moved to the table by feeling, still sitting on the ground, still eating the same meal as yesterday.

"It tastes good, it looks like an old man's craft!"

"This piece of meat is a little old, and when I get out, I have to talk to them about it, alas."

"This soup is also salty"

kept talking to himself, Li Wei didn't know whether to say it to himself or to anyone, and after eating all the food cleanly, he was reluctant to put down the dishes and chopsticks.

Slowly stood up, and this time he didn't go back to bed.

"Just finished eating, strolling around."

Li Li wandered aimlessly in the dark, and as long as his feet touched the wall, he continued to walk in a different direction.

I don't know how long I walked around, in this environment, Li Wei felt that all his sense of time and direction had been confused, and he couldn't tell what time it was.

Finally, after wandering around for a while, he kicked something different in a corner.

"Huh?" Li Wei kicked lightly with his foot again, "Brought me something new?" ”

Slowly squatting down, feeling the shape of the object in the corner of the wall with his hands, "It's like a bucket, why put a bucket in this place... Barrel..."

Li Wei slowly stood up, then stretched out his hand and wiped it vigorously on the wall.

Walking back along the bucket, along the wall on the single bed and then turning over and walking back, he had to familiarize himself with the journey, as for why not take the bucket to his bed...

Is it easy to do something in this hellish place?

When Li Wei struggled to survive the second day, the next night, he had insomnia, and he couldn't sleep on the bed, tossing and turning.

He'd tried zama walking, tried all sorts of training he'd started before, and then he could only make himself tired of any of them, but he couldn't fall asleep as quickly as he had before.

When Wang Yue opened the door to deliver food to Li Wei on the morning of the third day, what he saw was that his hair was completely scattered and his face was covered, and it was a mess, his clothes were torn apart, his eyes were red, and his breathing became very heavy.

"Well, let's come out for breakfast!"
