Chapter 114: Training
The blizzard hasn't stopped since the afternoon.
The sun was slowly setting, and Emst's moonlight was as bright as ever, shining on the white ground, and it was impossible to tell which was colder, the sky overhead, or the snowy ground.
Liu Ci wore a big wool cloak and walked on the snow at a very fast speed, her body was light and fluttering like a ghost, leaving only extremely shallow marks where she walked.
Liu Ci's light body kung fu that she has been practicing for several years, and with the help of the "Divine Talisman", twenty-three children have to pull the rope to toss and climb the mountain wall for most of the day, and she climbed to the top of the mountain in less than an hour.
The three mountains that surround the valley of thousands of acres of land, the highest is the North Mountain, the magic continent does not have "how many meters above sea level" said, based on the valley as the ground level, the North Mountain Leap is also more than 1,000 meters.
The Emmster Mountains are already high, and if you add more than 1,000 meters to the average surface height, you can imagine how thin the air at the top of the North Mountain is.
If it weren't for people who were used to staying in the Emst area, "altitude sickness" would have killed people.
Coincidentally, little Harvey's family is not a native of Amster after Liu Ci's understanding. Could it be that eight-year-old Harvey Jr. really had an accident? Liu Ci searched everywhere on the top of the mountain, no matter what team she wanted to train, there was survival of the fittest, and the matter of finding the flag seemed to be her sudden idea, but in fact, it was not just the physical strength of the children.
However, no matter how eliminated she is, she is not so bad as to use the lives of innocent children as an example.
Under the wind and snow, no matter how good Liu Ci's eyesight is, there are too many obstacles, and at this time, the divine sense comes in handy.
During Liu Ci's Qi cultivation period, her divine consciousness extended outward only two or three meters, and the realm of the foundation building period broke through, and she often used her divine sense to communicate with demonic beasts such as silver wolves in the past few years, which can also be regarded as a kind of exercise for her divine sense, and now her divine consciousness can be centered on her body and extend outward for dozens of meters.
Liu Ci was quite proud of this, and the rookie didn't understand that unlike the earth's magic continent, which naturally suppressed the monk's divine consciousness, a foundation-building monk's divine consciousness could only extend tens of meters, and he would laugh off the big teeth of the monk of the same level when he said it.
Divine consciousness is Liu Ci's "eyes", which are comparable to the naked eye, which can see through places covered by snowflakes.
The divine consciousness extended from the sea of consciousness to the surroundings, and Liu Ci quickly scanned the area of the top of the mountain. Next to a very remote boulder, Liu Ci found the vitality of a "living thing".
Breathing so shallowly that it was almost negligible, as if her heart was beating like nothing, she found the edge of the stone to brush away the snow, and little Harvey curled up in a ball, his whole body frozen unconscious. When Liu Ci was about to pick him up, she found that little Harvey was still holding a small flag in her short handโthe last of the twenty-three flags, but she remembered that she didn't hide in the vicinity when she was in the mountain last night?
Liu Ci had a problem with his intuition.
But let's take little Harvey back first, she picked up the child, the eight-year-old child is not heavy, the snow slag on the little Harvey made the big hair cloak wet, such a young boy, Liu Ci will freeze to death if he doesn't come to find it.
But spiritual power and the people of the Magic Continent are not directly compatible, and only by relying on medium such as talismans to take effect, otherwise entering the human body is destroying it. It's just that Liu Ci turned over for a long time, and the only thing that can cure the disease is the "knife talisman".
She remembered that there was also a kind of "rejuvenation talisman" that was very effective for restoring qi and blood, but Liu Ci's body was really porcelain, and she usually didn't use the rejuvenation talisman at all, and she couldn't draw the talisman on the top of the mountain where the wind and snow kept going, so she had to go down the mountain first with little Harvey in her arms.
In the villa, countless people are looking forward to it, Liu Ci is very good to them, most of the people at the bottom are still simple, they can't sleep not to watch the excitement, they are purely worried about the safety of little Harvey.
Harvey, who was on duty in the brick kiln, had already gotten the news, although the honest man believed that Miss Ci would not harm the child, but he was a fugitive slave for his son. Hurried to the big cafeteria, while reprimanding his crying wife, Harvey himself couldn't help but look in the direction of Beishan.
Winter is a long day and a long day, and the Amster Mountains, which have the highest number of sunshine spots on the continent, are no exception. It was already afternoon when Kerry Blatter first came down the mountain, and when Liu Ci went up the mountain to look for little Harvey, the sky was still bright, and now it was completely dark, and the moonlight was blocked by the wind and snow clouds, and the outside of the house was pitch black, and only the sound of snow slag hitting the window could be heard.
In Harvey's fluctuating mood and his wife's intermittent suppressed crying, a figure finally appeared more than ten meters away from the candlestick light.
Liu Ci's face sank like water, she couldn't see joy and anger on her face, she walked from the wind and snow with the little boy in her arms, and it seemed that in the blink of an eye, she approached from a few feet away.
"Everyone's gone, he's fine."
Handing over the little Harvey in his arms to the woman with tears on her face, Liu Ci asked the attentive Amy to stay and help, and told everyone to disperse.
The other twenty-two children who went down the mountain safely did not dare to leave without Liu Ci's instructions, and Liu Ci went up the mountain to find someone, so they gathered in the canteen and waited. Now Liu Ci's eyes swept away, and the twenty-two children stood up consciously.
Liu Ci snorted lightly, and didn't reprimand anything on the spot, leaving Amy to help, but she herself went back first.
When Liu Ci turned around, one of the boys let out a sigh of relief, as if he had been liberated at once.
Seeing that a few adults hugged little Harvey to make a hot soup, he squeezed to the new children's captain Kerry Blatter, "Brother Kerry, he should be fine, right?" โ
Kerry gave the boy a strange look.
It's not that the twelve-year-old doesn't know anything, on the contrary, because he has lived a hard life since he was a child, the twelve-year-old boy is far more precocious than Liu Ci thinks. Kerry was uneasy in front of Liu Ci, but in fact, he was quite authoritative among a group of half-grown children in the villa.
Harvey was promoted to steward, receiving 15 silver coins a month, not everyone was convinced, the child was easily influenced by the perception of adults, and Kerry had seen the boy in front of him bully little Harvey.
Why is it so kind to care about little Harvey's safety now?
Kerry felt that there was something wrong with it, he was the "squad leader" appointed by Liu Ci in the afternoon, and he was the first of the children who did not work to receive a salary, and he had to be responsible for receiving the money, so he pulled the boy down and asked him what had happened.
The boy was stubborn at first, and Kerry dragged his sleeve and wanted to run, but when Kerry stared and raised his big fist, the boy was scared, and said everything that happened on the top of the mountain.
After hearing this, Kerry pushed him away:
"Now go and kneel outside Miss Ci's courtyard, remember to stay away, don't disturb Miss to rest!"
The boy was indignant, and his mother and father shouted, mocking Kerry.
The captain of the half-captain was very stubborn, regardless of what the others looked at him, and insisted on twisting the boy and kneeling in the snow outside. He is now the captain of the squad, and the children all know that Kerry is favored by Miss Tzu, and as soon as he greets, several children rush to help.
The boy was twisted to kneel in front of Liu Ci's small building, Kerry's parents told him to go back to sleep, the team leader shook his head, put his cotton collar upright, and stood under the eaves of the small building to supervise.
The snow blew all night, and the boy reluctantly knelt in the snow all night.
Kerry Blatter, the twelve-year-old squad leader, also accompanied him for a night in order to supervise him.
Liu Ci saw everything in his eyes and did not interfere, he was still in the room, he should meditate and practice qi, and sleep when he should sleep.
After a good night's sleep, the next day she came out in a change of practice clothes, and Kerry Blatter curled up in a ball, and the boy kneeling in the snow was no better than little Harvey yesterday.
"What's going on?"
Kerry felt that the boy's actions made him very ashamed, and lowered his head to tell what happened in Beishan, but did not reprimand him as expected.
After Liu Ci heard this, he asked Kerry to gather the rest of the children in front of the small building, and little Harvey, who was frozen yesterday, stumbled over.
"Kerry Blatter, you're your captain from now on, you'll have to listen to him while I'm away, and you did a good job last night. Let you go up the mountain to find the flag, it is a test for you, but something unpleasant happened, little Harvey, you didn't rush back before dark, it means that your physical fitness is not strong enough, now stand up, the team is not allowed to lag behind, if you want to enter the team, you have to work hard to strengthen yourself, and strive for next year! โ
Eight-year-old Harvey had a red nose, and was teary-eyed by Liu Ci's words, standing in place and sobbing.
Everyone stared at him with sympathy.
Liu Ci pointed to the boy who was kneeling in the snow and fainted: "Snatch the banner of the weak companion, the team does not welcome this kind of person, he will lose the qualification to join the team forever!" โ
