Volume 1: The Humble Slave Chapter 2: Ten Days Later, Take Your Lesser Life
Chapter 2: Ten Days Later, Take Your Life
"Whirring ......"
In the middle of winter, a strong north wind whistled through, rolling up bursts of fallen leaves, cutting the heavens and the earth into pieces, and the goose feathers and heavy snow sprinkled on the ocean made people shiver from the bottom of their hearts and cold to the bone marrow.
Whoa!
Accompanied by the howling north wind, the sound of piercing the air was conveyed in a small forest in the Wanluo Douwu Arena according to a fixed rhythm.
In a clearing in this mountain forest, a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old, shirtless in the ice and snow, holding a wooden sword in his hand, kept waving it, and let out a whining sound in the air.
This young man is Xie Chen.
"It's been three days, and in the past three days, I've been practicing martial arts according to the "Thirty-six Swords", but my body is still too fragile now, and I can only barely perform the sword moves of the first sword, but unfortunately I can't use the sword intent, and the other sword moves can't even be used. ”
"To be physically fit, if you want to practice swords, you must have a strong physique. If I had a strong physique, it would be enough for me to use a second sword, or even a third sword. ”
Through the cultivation of the past few days, Xie Chen knew that if he wanted to cultivate peerless martial arts, he must have a strong physique, otherwise, everything would be in the air, and there would be no way to talk about it.
"The children of wealthy families, when cultivating, will take medicines such as bird's nest, deer antler, ginseng, and He Shou Wu to nourish qi and blood and refine the medicinal power into the flesh. Even, some powerful nobles will send the strong people in the family to hunt demon beasts, and replenish blood with blood through devouring and other methods, which will greatly improve the cultivation speed of the children of the family......"
"But I'm just a low-level slave in the martial arts arena, and it's thankful that I can eat meat a few times once in a while, it's impossible to do such a strenuous workout every day, otherwise it won't be long before my body is wasted. ”
Xie Chen knew that the success of those high-flying young geniuses was partly due to their roots, talent, and diligence, but the most important thing was that there was a steady stream of resources to support them, and as a slave, it was impossible for him to get such support.
If you don't have strong resources, you can only make up for it by hard work!
Using the wooden stick as a long sword, sword after sword swing, sweat splashed up, and under the background of snowflakes, it shimmered with brilliant crystals.
Gradually, Xie Chen became a little crazy, as if he was venting something, and he didn't care at all about the huge blood blisters bulging out on his hands.
Ah!
I don't know how many swords he swung, he finally ran out of strength, only to feel the Venus in front of him, his head buzzing, his body staggered, and he fell forward.
Then, his legs were weak, and he slumped on the snow, panting heavily, and his eyes were full of madness and unwillingness......
These days, he cultivates martial arts every day, and although it is effective, his physical body is still too fragile, and he can't hold on to it after cultivating for a long time.
If you continue like this, if you want to cultivate to the realm of condensing soldiers, I don't know what year or month.
"Being a slave in such troubled times, if you want to get ahead, you can only rely on strong force, otherwise, I can only be a slave for the rest of my life, slaughtered by others, not to mention avenging the old guy. ”
Bang!
Xie Chen slammed the ground hard, causing a burst of flying snow, his cultivation was only able to forge the body realm, and there was still a big gap between him and the peak of the Qi Realm, and he was not Li Jiangnan's opponent at all.
"Princes and generals, rather than a kind, since I know the trick of martial arts cultivation, and have the cultivation method of "Only I Thirty-six Swords", as long as I work hard to cultivate, in time, I will always be a blockbuster, rip off the skin of this slave, and become a master. ”
"But if you want to succeed, there is still a long way to go, and martial arts cultivation is a long-term process, and a solid foundation must be laid. ”
Although he understood the truth of martial arts cultivation and finally seized the slightest opportunity to change his fate, Xie Chen knew that martial arts cultivation was extremely difficult and could not be achieved overnight.
......
"Yo, isn't this the little waste that follows the bad old man all day long in our martial arts arena? Why, that bad old man is sick and dead, and he has to work hard, practice martial arts, and want to get ahead?"
Just when Xie Chen was secretly cheering himself up, a yin and yang strange voice came from behind him.
"Li Jiangnan?!"
Subconsciously turning around, Xie Chen saw a burly man about thirty years old, with a beard and a few scars crisscrossing his face, walking towards him, followed by a few arrogant younger brothers.
Li Jiangnan, one of the top ten masters of the Wanluo Douwu Arena, has already reached the peak of the Naqi realm with his cultivation, and it is even rumored that he is friendly with the jade girl who manages the Douwu Arena, and there is a faint tendency to become the top ten masters of the Wanluo Douwu Arena.
As one of the top ten masters among slaves, this Li Jiangnan is usually domineering in the martial arts arena, bullying men and women, but because of his strong strength, everyone else dares to be angry and dare not speak, and even several other top ten masters have to give him three points.
Even, even the younger brother under his command is superior to others and does all kinds of evil.
When the old guy was still there, Li Jiangnan was afraid of the old guy's strong strength and had always behaved, but a few days ago, he took advantage of the recurrence of the old guy's old injury, seriously injured the old guy, and the old guy died.
Thinking of this, Xie Chen's heart sank, his fists were subconsciously clenched, and a rage flashed from his eyes.
"Hehe, that old guy ate the chronic poison I had prepared for him for a whole year, and he didn't know it, and he deserved his 'old wound to recur'. ”
At this moment, Li Jiangnan stepped forward, leaned against Xie Chen's ear, and whispered in a voice that only Xie Chen could hear, "Tsk, it's a good medicine to eat bones and tendons, I heard that those little insects will slowly, slowly gnaw away your internal organs, so that you can't survive and die, presumably when that old guy is temporary, he should have suffered a lot......
"Boy, the old guy's exercise is in your hands, I advise you to hand it over to me quickly, and I can guarantee that you will eat and drink spicy food, otherwise, then I will have to let you follow in the footsteps of the old guy." ”
"You're still young, I think you know what to do, hahaha......"
patted Xie Chen's face, the corners of Li Jiangnan's mouth had a strong sense of banter, and his words were arrogant to the extreme.
Slapping your face, this is a very insulting action, and being slapped in the face in front of so many people is even more shameful, and life is worse than death.
"You...... Bastard!"
The old guy didn't recur from an old injury, but was poisoned and framed by Li Jiangnan, a bastard, all for the sake of the exercise of "Only My Thirty-six Swords"!
Hearing Li Jiangnan's words, Xie Chen only felt that a surge of qi and blood rushed to his head, his eyes were red, full of murderous **, and he jumped, like a wounded lion, and pounced towards Li Jiangnan.
"I don't know what to live or die!"
However, before he could make a move, he saw a black shadow flash, and Li Jiangnan's younger brother had already stopped in front of him, and hit him hard with a punch.
Under this punch, Xie Chen only felt that the space was distorted, and the surrounding snow seemed to be swept into a whirlpool, and the whole person was completely enveloped by a fierce momentum, and it seemed that he couldn't even move.
He only felt that his eyes were dark, as if he had been struck by lightning, and a trace of severe pain instantly spread to all parts of his body, and the whole person flew out upside down and fell heavily to the ground.
At this moment, Xie Chen only felt that all the muscles and bones in his body were broken, the pain entered the bone marrow, and the corners of his mouth faintly flashed with blood.
"Li Jiangnan, if you insult me today, one day, I, Xie Chen, will get it back a thousand times over. ”
Xie Chen struggled to get up, his eyes full of hatred.
Of course, it is impossible for him to say these words, his current strength is still very weak, let alone Li Jiangnan, even Li Jiangnan's younger brother can't beat him.
"You actually look at me like this, it seems that you want to take revenge in the future. In this case, if you don't cut the grass and don't remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows again, and I can't let you go. ”
As he spoke, Li Jiangnan took a step forward, and a whirlwind of fierce air roared from his body, and he actually had a murderous intent towards Xie Chen.
"Okay, just hit it a few times, it's hard to explain if you really kill me. ”
At this moment, a voice as ethereal as a cloud of smoke rang out.
Looking up, Xie Chen saw a woman with a cold and noble temperament, walking slowly, and stopped Li Jiangnan's movements with a wave of her hand.
"Jade Girl......"
Xie Chen's throat twitched slightly, and his heart was hot.
He knew that this woman with a noble temperament that people couldn't help but suffocate was the maid of the third lady of the Liangzhou Wangfu, and Liang Lengyu, one of the managers of the Wanluo Douwu Field, if the jade girl was willing to help him, Li Jiangnan would definitely not dare to provoke himself again.
However, the flame of hope that rose in Xie Chen's heart was immediately shattered with the words of the Jade Girl.
The jade girl said coldly and nobly: "Recently, the weather has become colder, and the performance of slave gladiatorial fights has also been greatly reduced, but there will be a few gladiatorial fights in ten days, Li Jiangnan, if you really can't get used to this ant, kill him on the dueling table." If he was killed in such an open and honest manner, I would not be able to explain it. ”
"What?!Duel!"
Xie Chen's whole body was trembling, his hands and feet were cold, as if it was a scorching sun just now, and now it had become a midwinter wax moon. He is just a cultivator of the Forging Body Realm, how can he be Li Jiangnan's opponent, this is simply to send him to death.
"Thank you Miss Jade, the villain is grateful. Hehe, Xie Chen, did you hear that, ten days later, you and I will compete in the dueling table, if you don't want to die, you should be obedient. ”
Li Jiangnan kept thanking the jade girl, and even turned to scorn Xie Chen, laughing unscrupulously.
"Alright, let's go. ”
Without saying a word, the jade girl walked forward directly, without glancing at Xie Chen from beginning to end.
In the eyes of the Jade Girl, the slaves in the martial arts arena are like ants. Seeing the respect in Xie Chen's eyes, not only did she not have a sense of superiority, but she was filled with a deep disgust, as if it was a shame to live in the same world as Xie Chen.
"Boy, in ten days, wait for me to take your life, hahaha......"
Li Jiangnan's rampant laughter kept echoing in Xie Chen's ears.
"Poof!"
At the moment when Li Jiangnan's figure disappeared, Xie Chen's body trembled, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, his face was pale, and he was obviously not lightly injured.
"Li Jiangnan, Jade Girl......"
Like a wounded beast, Xie Chen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said something in his mouth, but he didn't notice that a subtle light suddenly appeared on his chest, and it disappeared in a flash......
