Chapter 3: The Beginning of the Nightmare

In a hazy sleep, Bai Xiaoqi was woken up by Qin Yu, "Xiaoqi is about to get up, come with me." After speaking, without waiting for Bai Xiaoqi to react, he took her hand and walked outside the house.

Bai Xiaoqi followed Qin Yu to an empty field. Looking around, there were already more than a thousand children gathered here, all dressed about their age.

At this time, a middle-aged man dressed in black walked up to the platform in front of the venue and said to them loudly: "Today's trial will be even more cruel than the previous one, and only those who can survive are eligible to get things." In three years, only 100 people can go out from here, and from now on, it will be up to you to live or die! Let's go! As soon as the man waved his hand, dozens of archers appeared on the high wall behind him, and the rain of arrows whistled in the sky, not giving these children a chance to react. Moments of crying, begging for mercy, and screams filled the entire venue. A child standing beside Bai Xiaoqi was killed by random arrows in an instant.

Bai Xiaoqi, who had never experienced life and death, was so frightened that he stood still, his legs trembled, and he didn't know what to do. At this time, I only heard Qin Yu beside me shouting: "Xiao Qi, run!" ”

This shout was like thunder, which frightened Bai Xiaoqi and hurriedly came back to his senses and dodged. Slowly, Bai Xiaoqi found that this arrow rain was not blindly asking for people's lives, but traces, and the more he ran in the direction of the sect leader, the rarer the arrow rain became, and gradually he was not so afraid, and ran over in the direction of the black-clothed sect leader while dodging.

And the black-clothed sect leader standing on the high platform also found Bai Xiaoqi hiding in the crowd, and couldn't help nodding secretly, this kid's talent is really good.

On the other hand, some of the other children held the corpses of others in front of them and slowly moved forward, while others covered themselves with the entity and lay it in place. In their opinion, no matter what method is used, the most important thing is to survive to the end. In this hellish schoolyard, many children have begun to lose their innocence and even their humanity.

The rain of arrows soon ended, more than a hundred children died, and dozens were wounded. With a wave of his hand, the black-clothed head on the stage walked over and a group of people began to clean up the entire school yard, bandaging the injured children, and taking away the bodies of the dead children when they left the venue. The whole process was swift and orderly. Those people didn't have a single superfluous word, not even a superfluous expression, and seemed to have become accustomed to all this. Looking at these people cleaning up the school field, Bai Xiaoqi shuddered, will he become such an emotionless monster in the future?

"Well, the living can come to me and get your rations for today! Two steamed buns per person! After speaking, the black-clothed sect leader left the school grounds, leaving a few of his subordinates to distribute steamed buns.

"Xiao Qi, are you okay?" At this time, Qin Yu came over and looked at Bai Xiaoqi eagerly, for fear that she would miss a little.

"I'm fine, Brother Qin Yu, let's go get food!" A smile tugged at Bai Xiaoqi's pale little face, and he pulled Qin Yu towards the place where the food was distributed.

Qin Yu, who received the steamed buns, said to Bai Xiaoqi: "Brother Xiaoqi, we have to save some food on this steamed bun, every meal we have here is in exchange for our lives, this time we ate because we were not injured, you look at those injured people, they are not qualified to eat." Hearing this, Bai Xiaoqi looked around, and indeed as Qin Yu said, those injured children did not get food. Seeing this, Bai Xiaoqi cherished the food in her hand even more, she broke off a quarter of one of the steamed buns and held it in her hand, and put the rest into her arms with all the treasure. At the same time, his gratitude to Qin Yu has deepened a lot, the half of the steamed bun that Qin Yu gave him yesterday was also what he bought with his life, I don't know how long he hid it, he was reluctant to eat it, right?

"Brother Qin Yu, we must live until three years later. Let's get out of here together! Bai Xiaoqi took Qin Yu's hand and said seriously.

"Okay." Qin Yu looked at Bai Xiaoqi and smiled happily, as if he saw his compatriot brother who had just died again.

Without giving everyone much time to rest, a new round of practice began, but the next series of practices did not pose any danger to their lives. Just some literacy, condensation training. Think about it, if it's like getting up early, let alone more than 1,000 children, even if it's more than 10,000, they won't live to be three years later.

In the evening, the group returned to their huts.

"Xiao Qi, aren't you resting?" Qin Yu asked with some concern when he saw that Bai Xiaoqi was about to practice condensing qi again.

"Well, I heard Master Mu say that this condensation can make people stronger. But you have to practice diligently, I want to become stronger, and then protect you, brother! ”

"Okay, I'll practice with you, otherwise it's not good for me to hold you back. Let's see who can condense this qi first! Bai Xiaoqi's words touched Qin Yu, if you want to live until three years later, you must become strong, but there is only a dead end to deal with it passively.

In this way, the two sat cross-legged on the bed and practiced until dawn.
