(Cat pounces on Chinese) fingers grasp the leg of the table Jing Che stood up with the help of her strength and her body was obviously still weak She stared at Siming a little blankly trying to find some flaws in his cold face But no

She finally took a step back, and a sad smile was torn off her face, and there was a girl's unique and difficult to hide the greenness and softness in her voice: "Thank you, I know."

Sent back to the prison by the jailer Jing Che was as calm as ever As if nothing had happened Pick up Hua Ruyan and feed her water

It's so easy to get this pot of water, and there's not a bit of gore in the process

"Little Eighteen" Hua Ruyan gradually regained a little consciousness The heat on her body faded a little, but she was still weak and powerless She saw the pool of blood on the ground and vaguely knew what was going on Just trembling and holding Jing Che's hand as if holding the last bit of warmth in the world "You are so good"

Jing Che's face was not shocked, and he didn't say a word, he poured her another glass of water, and turned around and wrapped himself back in the quilt

In the darkness, the dead jailer had been dragged away, but there was still strong blood on the ground, and Jing Che couldn't smell it, but knew that it was like a densely woven invisible net that trapped her in it, and once she stepped in, there was no way out of it

She never imagined that her first murder would happen in such a situation, and it would happen suddenly and as a matter of course, her so-called ridiculous insistence was already crumbling step by step, and the only thing left was to support herself from obeying Xiao Ash

But even she wasn't sure how much longer she would be able to stay in this place

"Little Eighteen" In the dark, Hua Ruyan spoke, and her voice sounded muffled under the quilt

Although Jing Che didn't answer, Hua Ruyan also knew that she hadn't slept She was used to Jing Che's uncaring appearance When she first arrived, she was even colder Often huddled in the corner and sat alone all night No matter what Hua Ruyan wanted to say to her, she was indifferent

"Little Eighteen, here, only we depend on each other."

After being silent for a long time, Jing Che finally spoke and only replied with one word: "Hmm"

But with a strange affirmation and trust

"Little Eighteen, I don't know what your name is yet" There was a sound of the quilt turning in the darkness, and Hua Ruyan turned around, It seems that the burn has faded

The two girls were lying facing each other, Jing Che lowered his eyes and didn't know where to star: "I don't have a name, just call me eighteen."

Her name was given by the master, and she used to think that there was some deep meaning, and she pestered him to force him to say, and he just pulled his lips and said it inappropriately, because when he named her, he happened to see the rising sun, and the scenery of heaven and earth was washed incomparably clear by this spray of red, so he casually came up with a name

The rising sun rose and fell, and the innocent girl was now covered with blood and charged with it, and she didn't deserve this name anymore, and she didn't want it to be tarnished in this place

"Okay, little eighteen," Hua Ruyan called her in a straight voice, "Do you know that my name was given to me by my brother, and he said that when I was born, the whole city was blooming."

"What about your brother?"

"In order to survive, he sold me to the landlord as a child daughter-in-law."

"Do you hate him?"

"I used to hate it to the bone, but now I don't hate it anymore In this troubled world, everyone lives like ants and takes care of themselves, so why should they be so noble" Hua Ruyan's tone was calm and sad, "At that time, I just had too much persistence to fall to such a point"

"Persistence" Jing Che muttered the word She has hardly experienced troubled times She has been protected by the wings of a hundred miles of wind She still has a lot of princess problems that have not been removed Clean and stubborn Even self-righteous She insisted on too many things In the end, she trapped herself in the cage she set up and couldn't break free

Hua Ruyan continued: "Little Eighteen, if I realized this that night, then maybe I would have lived a completely different life, living the life of a young grandmother in the Gaomen compound, wearing gold and silver, enjoying glory and wealth, but at that time, I would rather die than give in, I could not be blasphemed, I killed the landlord one night and escaped, I was captured by the government, hanged, but by mistake, I was taken by the people of the Shura field and sent here."

Hua Ruyan kept talking and Jing Che listened silently

"When I first came in, I thought I would never be able to go out again, and I gave up on myself like you now, but then I heard that there was a chance to go out, so I tried to live."

"You can go out" The dim light in Jing Che's eyes finally had a little undulation

"There will be 200 people in the Shura field every year, and only ten of them will go out in the end, and they will be incorporated into the Hidden Character Army, and they can go out to carry out tasks."

"Two hundred people survived and ten ......" Jing Che chewed on this sentence repeatedly, and what flashed in front of him was the light of the sword and the shadow of the sword, as well as the fierce expressions on everyone's faces

This brutal elimination is not only about the bodies and bones of the dead, but also about the humanity of the living

"Little Eighteen, if we really go out one day, I must go and see the flowers blooming all over the city," Hua Ruyan began to look forward to

"Blossoms...... I've seen the whole hillside full of white horse bones, and there's a pavilion in that hillside, and there are two people sitting in the pavilion, maybe it's a pair of master and apprentice, and the master is drinking, and the apprentice is laughing."

Hua Ruyan's voice was low: "These are all very beautiful."

Jing Che seemed to be stupid and repeated: "These are all very beautiful."

The voice gradually sank, and both of them fell asleep unconsciously

In the past two months, Jing Che had never slept so deeply as tonight, and she had a brief dream, in which she returned to Yunqin Peak, and the swaying snow-white petals of the white horse bones were crystal clear in the sunlight

It's still the same pavilion There is a pot of wine on the stone table in the pavilion It has just been opened, and the aroma of wine is overflowing, but Jing Che keeps running and shouting, but no one can find her, and she is surrounded in the white of the mountains and fields, as if she is mourning

***

Time is half a year in a flash, and for the people in the Shura field, there is no day and night here, only strict rules of work and rest, day after day, the blade is more and more bloodthirsty

It's long and boring, and it's also torturous and painful

At the beginning, the 200 people in the Shura field were reduced to 50 people, and Jing Che trembled from the beginning when he lifted his sword and threw it back, and then he should be numb when he swung his sword, and he didn't remember how many people he had killed

She has integrated into this life of annihilation of human nature Only relying on Hua Ruyan for her life And Xiao Shen and Fu Ye have never come to her since that day They seem to be extremely confident Jing Che will collapse here sooner or later But Jing Che has become stronger and stronger and invincible There is only one belief in her heart Become ten of the two hundred people who survive Then one day she can go out

One evening, Hua Ruyan was bandaging Jing Che's wounds, and the big lock at the door of the cell suddenly sounded, and someone walked in

Unhurriedly, they turned around and saw Siming standing at the door

"Congratulations," Siming said expressionlessly

Jing Che and Hua Ruyan glanced at each other, not knowing what he was talking about

"From this day onwards, you will become a reserve of the Hidden Character Army, enter the military camp of the Shura Field, and receive unique training."

The hands of the two men were clasped tightly together, I don't know if they were excited or trembling, they were one step closer to seeing the light of day, but it meant that they were going to kill more people

Siming brought all the people who had become the Reserve Hidden Character Army to the barracks, where there was already a queue of soldiers waiting for them, and the two columns of people stood opposite each other, no more, no less

Si Ming walked slowly through the empty passage between the two columns of people and shouted: "The person in front of you will become your master and supervise your training until you become the official Hidden Word Army."

"Although here, whoever is strong is the biggest, and you can even kill your own master in the future and replace him, but now, there should be etiquette, and now there are three kowtows to the master."

All of them obeyed the order and did not hesitate to kneel down and kowtow

Only Jing Che stood there without a movement, staring directly at the sturdy warrior opposite

Si Ming stood there with two or three people apart, not in a hurry, watching how Jing Che would end

The man opposite was already a little angry: "You don't kneel Lao Tzu"

"I don't apprentice," she said tightly, and she only spit out three words

Hua Ruyan beside her was already anxious and tugged on Jing Che's trouser legs: "Little Eighteen, you kneel quickly"

"I don't apprentice," Jing Che continued to insist, his eyes sharp

The man stepped forward, pulled Jing Che's hair angrily, pressed her head vigorously, and kicked her knees with his toes, forcing her to kneel

Jing Che knew that he couldn't make trouble here, so he let his fist slash his head and cover his face, and he endured it without struggling, but he didn't compromise no matter what

Seeing that the person was knocked over and curled up in a ball, Siming finally stopped it: "Okay"

He walked over, Jing Che staggered to his feet, his forehead was broken, and the blood was flowing down, the corners of his mouth were blue, and his face was covered in blood

Even if she was so embarrassed, she still said coldly: "I don't apprentice."

"Come with me," Siming said, raising his voice to everyone, "The rest of the people will disband first."

Jing Che clenched his fists and followed behind Siming until he entered an empty rock cave

"Why don't you apprentice?"

"No Why"

There is only one of her masters, and there can always be one

"You are very promising, but I have to warn you that whoever is strong here has the right to speak."

Jing Che stared at Siming vigilantly and warily

"If you can pass me ten tricks, I will allow you not to worship the teacher," the cat fluttered in Chinese
