The news of Ye Shuai's Thorn Army's victory at Jianmen Pass was transmitted back to Luoyang, and finally brought a touch of warmth to this bleak autumn rain.

Perhaps before this, many people didn't expect that the grass-cutting defense line that was about to collapse would actually hold it!

Not only did it hold it, but the Thorn Army also gave those steppe people who came to attack a head-on attack, and directly annihilated nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses of its main force!

It is said that the grassland people completely relented this time and formally sued for peace with the Dajin Dynasty, and the peace envoys sent by the grassland king were already on the way, and they were about to arrive in Beijing soon.

The streets of Luoyang City are filled with a jubilant atmosphere, like a grand festival.

People braved the rain to take to the streets to celebrate each other.

On this day, for the first time in nearly two hundred years, the grassland people lowered their noble heads and bowed down to the Dajin Dynasty.

On this day, Pei Yuanji's death was completely forgotten by the people, and it became the least important trivial matter, and there was a topic that people talked about on the streets and alleys, that is, the great victory of Jianmen Pass.

On this day, Emperor Jin, under the great joy of the dragon's heart, announced an amnesty to the world, and nearly fifty percent of the prisoners in the prisons of the Adjudication Division, the Criminal Department, and the Terracotta Division were suddenly reduced, allowing them to return to their old land.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Xia Sheng.

At least not for the time being.

By the time he got the news, it was three days later.

In conscience, in fact, Xia Sheng's life is still very good these days.

Although he was imprisoned in the Twilight Cloud Cave, he ate and drank well every day, and had no worries about food and clothing, where it seemed like a claustrophobic thought, if you really talked about it, it was more like recuperating and recuperating in the cave.

The reason why the Spring and Autumn Academy regarded claustrophobic in the Twilight Cloud Cave as a very severe punishment. Of course it makes sense, otherwise, why did Zhong Weiwei need the Hall of Eternal Life to treat her after she left the Twilight Cloud Cave?

The reason for this is that there is a very special formation in the Twilight Cloud Cave.

Except for those who do not see in the cave and do not see the five fingers of their hands, there are twelve hours in a day. For ten hours, no sound could be heard in the Twilight Cave.

Absolute darkness, combined with absolute silence, only takes a few days and is enough to drive a normal person insane.

Even if a cultivator stimulates his own martial arts and aura, he can't see the slightest light, and you can only hear his own voice, breathing, and heartbeat, and this kind of mental torture is unbearable even for a cultivator.

If you're lucky. In the two hours when the daily formation was weakened, perhaps the two disciples in charge of guarding it outside would talk to you, otherwise, the sound of insects in the mountains, the breeze of the breeze, and the friction of the leaves would all be amplified countless times in your ears, making people's hearts torment like ants.

In addition to this, the small caves also make it difficult to stay inside. I can't stand up straight, and I can't stretch my legs when I sleep. The only way is to sit.

Most of the students in the academy are young people in their teens and twenties, and they are not high-ranking monks like the abbot of Xinkong, so how can they stand the boredom of sitting for a few days like this?

Therefore, in the eyes of the students of the academy, the Dusk Cloud Cave is really an incomparably terrifying place.

Of course, all this is not a problem for Xia Sheng.

In the seven days that I entered the Twilight Cloud Cave. He slept well every day, and his heart was also very steady, as if this was not a claustrophobic place at all, but returned to the small cabin in the backyard of Wanfu Building.

It's a little simpler, but it's reassuring.

Every day after waking up. Xia Sheng did not waste a single bit of time, but practiced his sword day after day.

In such a small space, it is naturally impossible to perform swordsmanship as he wants, so Xia Sheng chose to practice swordsmanship in his heart.

From the Yuehua Sword to the Haoran Sword, from the White Flame Sword to the Immortal Sword, Xia Sheng practiced a lot of swordsmanship, but it was a pity that he could only remember a rough idea of most of the swordsmanship, and he couldn't understand the essence of it without a sword book in hand, so in the end, Xia Sheng was really able to integrate it into only seven sets of swordsmanship.

Of course, for his current realm, it is more than enough.

What's more, the seven swordsmanship techniques practiced by Xia Sheng are all extraordinary, and if each style is put into the outside world, I am afraid that it will cause a shock in the entire cultivation world, causing a river of blood.

I'm afraid that he is the only one who can be so extravagant, and even the legendary super-grade swordsmanship such as the White Flame Sword and the Haoran Sword is not taken seriously.

Similarly, if it is another person, even if he puts the sword score of these seven sets of swordsmanship in front of him, if he does not practice for more than ten or twenty years, he will not want to achieve a small success!

But Xia Sheng is Xia Sheng after all.

This is still without the assistance of the Spirit Spring, otherwise, his cultivation speed will only be faster!

In addition, Xia Sheng still has one thing to do every day, which is to teach Dijiang to speak.

Di Jiang doesn't have a mouth, but that doesn't mean it can't make a sound, although the two have the same mind, even if Di Jiang doesn't understand human language, he only needs to move his mind, Xia Sheng can understand its meaning, but ......

Anyway, being idle is idle, and the communication with Di Jiang will help Xia Sheng resist the erosion of the formation on his state of mind, so why not do it?

As for whether Di Jiang can speak in the end, Xia Sheng is not worried at all.

Even Dean Wei's spirit beast can learn it, Dijiang, as a god who once dominated one side, is it not as good as that stupid bird?

Except for the ten hours when the Twilight Cloud Cave Spirit Array was opened every day, Xia Sheng was also very busy for the remaining two hours, because a group of freshman students, including Shen Hui, Zhou Bo, and Mo Yuan, would always calculate the time and line up to see him.

Well, or more accurately, ask him to give him some direction in his practice.

Dean Wei was a regular visitor, and although she couldn't speak, she would always bring Xia Sheng hot meals and some Braille books in the library.

Tang Zi'an only came twice, once to ask for opinions on the drafting of the Chun Yan list, and the other time to tell him that Qin Xiaohua really stopped the Pei family as promised.

"In that case, then you can always let me out, right?" Xia Sheng's face was full of helplessness, although life in the Twilight Cloud Cave was leisurely, it was not a matter to stay like this.

In this regard, Tang Zi'an's answer was: "It's better to wait a few more days, I believe that the Pei family will never give up, and when the rumor has completely passed, it will not be too late for you to come out again." And after a while, the dean will be back, and with his old man supporting you, this matter will be completely revealed. ”

Xia Sheng naturally knew how much trouble he had brought to the Spring and Autumn Academy, and how much trouble he had brought to Tang Zi'an, so he didn't complain about Tang Zi'an's cautious move, but responded to it.

But he never expected that the day after Tang Zi'an finished saying this, someone appeared outside the entrance of the Dusk Cloud Cave and brought him the news of the defeat of the grassland people.

And the person who came turned out to be the little girl who was wrapped in black and barefoot.
