After leaving the Hall of Discipline, the four of them stopped to rest as they passed a stream.

Yuan Xi drank a few sips of water and wanted to lie on a stone, but as soon as his back touched the stone, he screamed in pain, turned over and lay on his stomach, "I really can't walk, I didn't expect that old man to be so ruthless, this little thing tortured us so hard." After speaking, he immediately looked around, as if he was afraid that Yu Yu would hear it.

"I'm sorry I've caused everyone a problem. Su Yuan felt deeply guilty when he saw that the three of them looked weak and were punished because of themselves.

"You don't have to blame yourself, Ji Yuan is too much, and he is not merciful at all. Pang Jing looked cheerful and said indifferently.

"I think whoever we are will help, since we are friends, don't say these things. Xi Lan's white clothes were already a little broken, but on the contrary, his fair face was even more heroic.

"Yes, we are friends. ”

Su Yuan saw sincerity and trust in their eyes, as if to say that as a friend, these are all natural. After this experience, the four fourteen- and five-year-old teenagers smiled innocently at this carefree age, as if to say that all the previous difficulties were nothing, and that the ensuing ones would not be able to hinder their growth.

An inopportune "cooing" sound broke this "solemn" moment, Yuan Xi smiled awkwardly, and said indignantly: "I haven't eaten for two days, and those people in the Discipline Hall are too inhumane, not only corporal punishment, but also don't give anything to eat." ”

"Everyone's hungry, I'm going to find something to eat. Su Yuan remembered that he might not have eaten for a long time, although he was also weak when he had just recovered from his injury, but he was in the best state among the four.

"Go, go, I'm going to faint from hunger. Yuanxi touched his stomach and made an exaggerated gesture to indicate that he was really hungry.

There are many animals in the mountains and forests here, and Su Yuan saw that there was a waterhole in the lower reaches of the stream, and there should be a lot of fish.

Su Yuan came to the side of the pool, the pool is not big, and occasionally a fish swimming in the clear water can be seen swimming in the water, and then looking down, he can only see a dark spot, and he can't see the bottom of the pool. Su Yuan jumped into the pool with a fish jump, the cold pool water gave him goosebumps, and at the same time, he was also surprised, although the temperature of the pool in the mountain was low, but it did not make him feel cold in the early stage of the Yu Realm, and he did not find anything unusual after observing the surroundings, he had to run his breath, and a faint circle of light outside his body isolated the cold air, so he felt much better.

The swimming fish in the upper part of the pool are not big, Su Yuan decided to dive into the depths of the pool, he was like a smart swimming fish to the bottom, but Su Yuan found that the further down the pool water, the colder it became, and he found that the cold increased sharply after diving less than two feet, and the aperture outside the body could not resist the invasion of the cold, Su Yuan expected that there must be something strange, and looked at the bottom of the pool, and vaguely seemed to see a faint green light, but he was not sure, after thinking for a while, he carefully went down, and at the same time extended his sensory awareness to the maximum to deal with the occurrence of accidents.

Continuing down, the green light became more and more obvious, and the chill was multiplied, and the aperture was no longer able to resist all the cold, but Su Yuan was already growing up in the perennial bitter cold north, and the battle with Ji Yuan made his resistance to the cold also greatly increased, so even if a large amount of cold invaded his body, it was not affected too much.

When approaching the bottom of the pool, Su Yuan finally saw the source of the green light, which was emitted from a stone, and the cold air was also emitted from the stone, most of the stones were buried in the silt, and there were two large and long fish not far away, the whole body was smooth and without scales, the color of the back was constantly changing, there were several thick and long tentacles at the corners of the mouth, and two rows of teeth upstream and downstream of the slightly open mouth, these two strange fish swimming around the glowing stone also found Su Yuan, swinging their tails and floating in the water, staring vigilantly at Su Yuan, an uninvited guest。

The water in the pool was shaking gently, and a slender and sharp voice kept coming from Su Yuan's consciousness, and he understood that it was the two strange fish that made a warning sound.

Although these two fish were very large in size and the strength in their bodies was also strong, Su Yuan felt from their momentum that the strange fish had not yet reached the level of a fierce beast, and Su Yuan had a great chance of defeating them. The two strange fish found that Su Yuan did not mean to retreat, and suddenly the pool water rolled violently, and the two strange fish rushed towards Su Yuan at the same time, Su Yuan had already prepared, his speed in the water was not as fast as the strange fish, and he could not avoid the attack that rushed over, and swung the long-standing fist towards a strange fish from a distance, and the fist penetrated the heavy pool water and hit the strange fish, the strange fish rolled and retreated in the water, and the blood overflowed from its body, and the other strange fish rushed to Su Yuan, opened its mouth and bit Su Yuan, Su Yuan relied on the momentum of the punch just now to retreat backwards to avoid the strange fish, and in the moment of the wrong body, it hit its back with a punch, but it was also swept by the strange fish with its tail。

The strange fish turned around flexibly and bit Su Yuan who was still shaking in the water again, Su Yuan pushed forward with both hands and retreated with the power of the water, but he was tightly entangled by the strange fish with the tentacles at the corner of his mouth, seeing that his body was entangled by the tentacles, the strange fish opened and bitten, Su Yuan hurriedly used his feet against the upper and lower jaws of the strange fish respectively.

The strange fish is extremely powerful, Su Yuan felt that his feet were against the two mountains, and the tentacles wrapped around his body also made him feel painful, he would hold on for a while, but he did not forget the strange fish that was repelled at the beginning, Su Yuan would not think that the strange fish would be killed with one punch, although the battle just now was only a moment, but the first fish could recover at any time and attack again.

Thinking of this, Su Yuan was in a hurry, but his body and hands were entangled, and his feet were also in a stalemate with the strange fish and he couldn't move.

The qi in Su Yuan's body was running wildly, the power of his body poured out like a torrential rain, and the tentacles that were wrapped around his body were broken away little by little, but the power of the tentacles was also increasing, and Su Yuan still couldn't break free if he went on like this, and Su Yuan caught a glimpse of another strange fish swimming towards this side. At this critical juncture, in the pure power confrontation, Su Yuan gritted his teeth and desperately made the power in his body burst out, and suddenly felt the blood boiling, in his consciousness, there was a pair of pale golden eyes slowly opened, and the boiling blood emitted a warm current, and the warm current followed the blood through the limbs and hundreds of remains, Su Yuan felt that there was a violent force filling every corner of his body, he suddenly exerted his strength, and the entangled tentacles were suddenly broken, and then his feet were withdrawn from the mouth of the strange fish, and a punch hit the head of the strange fish, the strange fish was dizzy, and twisted his body wildly, Su Yuan continued to punch and punch down to the head of the strange fish, until the strange fish stopped struggling A large amount of blood oozed from the head, Su Yuan stopped, and at this time, another strange fish swimming in saw this scene, turned around and fled into the distance, but the waterhole was not big, it still did not leave Su Yuan's line of sight, but Su Yuan did not rush to kill it.

Su Yuan dragged the strange fish out of the water and threw it on the stone on the side, the gills of the strange fish were still one by one, and they were still alive. At this time, the three of them also happened to come over, and they were all surprised to see the strange fish on the shore.

Yuanxi ran over and hugged the strange fish, laughing and said, "What a big fish." ”

Su Yuan ignored the guy, "Why are you here?"

"Hearing that there is movement here, come over and take a look, are you injured?" Xilan was keenly aware of Su Yuan's strangeness.

"It's okay, you've come just in time, there's a glowing stone under the water, maybe it's a baby, let's get it together. ”

Yuanxi guarded the shore, Su Yuan took Xi Lan and Pang Jing to the bottom of the pool, and arrived at the green light stone, Xi Lan and Pang Jing were trying their best to resist the cold, and seeing Su Yuan as if he still had spare strength, he couldn't help but look at each other, you must know that the strength of the three of them was basically in the middle of the competition in the previous disciple selection conference, but I didn't expect Su Yuan to have strengthened a lot in just a few months.

In fact, it is not that Su Yuan's strength is stronger than them, but his resistance is strong, coupled with the fact that the hidden power of the bloodline was inadvertently stimulated just now, it invisibly improved his resistance again, as far as it is concerned, Su Yuan's ability to resist the cold is much stronger than before the battle with Ji Yuan, and if he meets Ji Yuan again, he will not be so embarrassed.

Su Yuan stretched out his hand to touch the glowing stone, and a biting cold pierced the bottom of his heart, but this cold was pure "cold", not like Ji Yuan's power with yin and cold, the other two also saw from Su Yuan's expression, although they were prepared, but the cold when they touched the stone was still beyond their expectations, but the three teenagers were the best among their peers in terms of strength and perseverance, and this difficulty naturally did not affect them, and the three of them finally worked together to lift the stone out of the water.

Yuan Xi carefully looked at this green stone on the bank, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the frost iron stone, this frost iron stone is very rare in age and purity, and this big fish is the dragon beard fish, guarding next to the frost iron stone, it can grow by absorbing the essence of the frost iron stone, and see that this dragon beard fish is not far from growing, otherwise the general Xuan Realm is difficult to deal with." ”

Su Yuan was secretly frightened, but fortunately he encountered a young dragon's beard fish.

"Frost iron is an excellent material for forging weapons, but the quantity is very small, and it is basically priceless on the outside. Xilan added.

"Haha, I'm missing a handy weapon. Pang Jing said with a smile.

"This piece of frost iron is so big, it is more than enough to forge a weapon for each of us, we will take it to the armory hall, and give them some reward at that time, I am not afraid that they will refuse. ”

Yuan Xi protested: "Slow down, we'll discuss this frost iron stone later, I'm really hungry now." ”

After his reminder, the others remembered the purpose of this time, and they started to do it, and after a while, the dragon beard fish was used as a teenager's delicacy on the fire, during which Pang Jing didn't know where to steal a few pots of wine, and several people drank wine and ate dragon beard fish meat, which was extremely comfortable, and the fatigue was swept away, and the punishment and unhappiness of these days were also gone.

At night, the stars were low, and four teenagers were lying on the stones.

Su Yuan looked at Pang Jing lying on the huge stone with a prodigal look, and did not forget to pour wine into his mouth, he couldn't help but smile, this guy was lying so arrogant, and asked: "Pang Jing, you and Ji Yuan are both disciples of the Second Elder, will he embarrass you when you go back?"

"If you want to say that he doesn't think a little carefully, I don't even believe it, but as long as I don't die, one day he will regret it, Lao Tzu will become a figure who commands thousands of troops in the future. Pang Jing said with a smile.

"But the precept hall he went to with us was later taken away by the old man Yu, it won't be because he received the benefits and let him go, but to be honest, that little white face is quite powerful. Yuan Xi was lying on the ground, obviously still angry about Yu Yu's punishment.

"That guy was in the early stage of the Xuan Realm, and his strength ranked third among the disciples of Qi Feng, and he had the bloodline of the ancient giant beast Cold Ice Xuan Snake. ”

"It's so powerful, it seems that I can't beat him in this life. Yuanxi sighed dejectedly.

"Xilan, how do you know where we are?" asked Su Yuan a little strangely.

"I passed by with a senior brother, and I saw you when I heard the sound of a fight, and I stayed, and that senior brother originally wanted to go and live in the herb hall, but I didn't expect to meet Yu Yu. Xi Lan told how he met, and then said, "What are the chances of winning if we join forces to deal with Ji Yuan?"

Su Yuan thought about it for a while, "Sancheng, I suspect that Ji Yuan hasn't done his best yet." ”

"If the four of us join forces, we guess we have a 70% chance of winning. ”

"Maybe. Su Yuan replied uncertainly.

The four teenagers chatted without a word, and none of them left first, as if they couldn't bear to break this rare time together.

Gradually, everyone was silent, as if they were asleep, and as if they were thinking about something,

In addition to the boundless darkness of the silent mountain forest night, there is also the unknown sound of small insects.

Many years later, they have all embarked on their own life paths in this involuntary era, but they still remember that night when the stars were shining, that night that remembered their youth.

Su Yuan looked at the stars, his heart inexplicably rippled, he opened his hands slightly, at that moment, he seemed to want to embrace the entire starry sky.
