Chapter 044: Ninth
Over the past year or so, the name of the red list has changed several times from beginning to end, but Arrow 11 has been firmly in place and unmoving, which is really a wonder.
The young man was puzzled by this, but because of the vague and mysterious atmosphere in the village, he did not dare to ask anyone, and this doubt became more and more thick.
Grabbing the back of his head, secretly sensing that there was silence and no one else, the young man walked quickly from the door to the corner, hiding his body in the dark, and at the same time put the note into his arms again.
He understood the meaning of the picture.
Arrow Eleven wanted him to leave White Frost City.
He really deserves to go, after all, Hook Eight is likely to ...... No, it must be...... must have died.
Ten out of ten died at the hands of Arrow Eleven.
If the boy had only guessed about this at the courtyard a few days ago, then his guess had turned into a certainty at this moment.
She...... Another move up one spot.
Now she is ten arrows.
A stream of heat suddenly gushed out from the bottom of his heart, and the boy only felt hot flashes in his hands, and his breathing became rapid.
The girl who was already out of reach, this time it was a little farther away from him, and when would he be able to compare with him?
The sweaty hand subconsciously stroked behind him, the iron box was cold, the meteor seemed to be asleep, and the young man's expression looked a little confused.
Two days ago, he had gone to kill some sheep. At that time, he just thought that he could cover the breath of human blood with the breath of sheep blood, so as to hide his rash action.
But just a moment ago, he really realized that he didn't just want to hide the killing of Lao Tu, but what he wanted to hide was actually ...... Death of Hook Eight.
The boy didn't want anyone else to know about it.
Even though he knew that he would be punished for deliberate deception, and even more so that he would lose his life if he couldn't say it, the boy still couldn't help but do so.
Even, he dared to lie that Hook Eight was collecting medicine outside the city under the terrifying coercion of Shu Jiu.
"Why ...... I"
The boy murmured softly again.
At that moment, his chest was hot, and the note hidden in his placket seemed to turn into a flame, burning his eyes.
He should go.
However, this walk means admitting defeat, and it is not the others who lose, but the ash gun that he hates the most, hates the most, and despises the most.
As soon as he thought of the other party's arrogant face, the young man felt that his chest was clogged and his blood was rising.
He was not reconciled.
However, what can you do if you are unwilling?
Hook Eight is dead, what should he do now to win this competition?
The moonlight flowed silently, and the young man shrank in the corner of the wall, and the puppet on his face turned into a circle of silver-blue light, like a finch screen shaking, just like his chaotic thoughts......
In the Hundred Flowers Courtyard, Wei Shu leaned on the windowsill, looking at the bent eyebrow moon at the corner of the eaves, and her mood was calm.
Yue Bawu should have already gotten the finger tiger.
Counting the hours, he must have been agonizing over the painting, hesitating whether to leave the city or stay.
At this moment, the scroll in the darkness was turning somewhere, reflecting a memory of Achilles:
Yue Bawu's trip is a certain practice, Hook Ba is his temporary master, Wei Shu has known about this matter for a long time, and Shu Jiu, who she met by chance, thinks that it is another junior's master.
These two pairs of masters and apprentices do not come to this point casually, but need to compete according to some kind of rules. As for the method of the duel, the master did not need to make a move, and only the apprentices trained by the two competed to decide the winner.
This seems to be a different way to take the exam.
Those who are skilled in martial arts should not only focus on themselves, but must have the ability to be a teacher and can adjust good apprentices; Those with low martial skills need to have excellent comprehension and be able to comprehend the guidance of the temporary master, so that their martial arts skills can be improved, and they will eventually defeat their opponents.
Before Lu met Shujiu, Wei Shu had not remembered this incident, but now that her memory was slightly restored, she felt that her painting was probably going to embarrass the young man.
However, Hook Eight is dead, and the young man has no master on this trip, if he doesn't leave, can he still win the opponent with the guidance of a famous teacher on the other side alone?
What's more, Book IX...... It's hard to cope.
Wei Shu frowned, slightly disturbed in her heart.
This afternoon, when she knelt on the left side of the road, she sensed Aquith's fear for the first time.
Facing Akisi, who dared to fight bravely, but the moment he noticed Shu Jiu's gaze, he trembled with fear.
This emotion inevitably affected Wei Shu, making her feel a little terrified in her heart every time she thought about Shu Jiu.
Although he is still extremely resistant to the "past", the impression left by Shu Jiu on Aqisi must be so deep that even if the original owner dies, he refuses to recall, but Wei Shu can vaguely remember some of it.
And in this whole late afternoon, Wei Shu has "read" the memory of Shu Jiu back and forth several times, and the more he reads, the more he feels that this person is very tricky.
On the "ninth" position, book nine has stayed for six whole years.
It's not that his martial arts skills are inferior to those in front of him, or that he can stay in place every time, but because he likes the number "nine" very much.
Nine is the most numerous, a kind of extreme.
And what Shu Jiu wants in his life is also the ultimate.
In order to perpetuate the name of "Shu Jiu", countless strong people died under him, and countless people who inexplicably "won" him.
In other words, all those who threaten the rank of "nine" either leap to the top or turn to dust.
In Wei Shu's view, it is difficult to compete for the top spot, but it is even more difficult to keep his position fixed somewhere.
The former must possess extremely high martial arts, while the latter requires not only outstanding martial arts, but also good calculations, knowing how to grasp the timing and ...... Uphold and firmly believe in a certain ...... Strange and intolerant obsessions.
Moreover, this obsession has reached the extreme, far more than life and death.
This kind of mental stubbornness is the rarest of things.
Book 9, I see if you have a disease or a serious illness.
It's a pity that today's Wei Shu is no longer "me", and all the things that "I" can easily do are difficult for her to reach the sky.
After all, she is just a lowly slave, and her identity is her biggest constraint, no matter what she wants to do, it is not so easy.
Wei Shu sighed softly.
Akith's identity is really complicated, and it's very troublesome.
Since Lu Yushu Jiu at noon, Wei Shu has never stopped thinking, and after several considerations, he has come to only one conclusion:
If it is not necessary, it should never be seen in person with Book 9.
This is not cowardice, but the injury is in the body, and I have to avoid it for a while.
As for the man with a voice like a jackdaw, Wei Shu still doesn't know his name, only that his horror is no less than that of Shu Jiu, but it is not a horror in martial arts, but ...... But......
The moonlight suddenly became blurred, everything in front of him seemed to be shaking, and there seemed to be no light between heaven and earth.
Wei Shu closed her eyes in resignation, and her thoughts were interrupted.
