Chapter 43: Hundred Cave Cliffs
The two figures passed by in an instant.
Luo Cheng landed steadily in the ring, and he didn't see anything unusual, but the sharp-eyed people found that blood was constantly dripping to the ground on the tips of his right ring finger, like a bright red flower.
"I hope you keep your promise!"
Luo Cheng said hoarsely, his voice almost undetectable.
Even An Chen on the other side didn't really listen to it, but he could feel the unwillingness and helplessness in Luo Cheng's heart.
An Chen half-squatted on the ground, looking at Luo Cheng quietly, if Luo Cheng still had the strength to fight, then he would lose!
At this time, the reason why he could still half-squat was because of the support of the Taixuanshi Sword.
Who wins?
Everyone stared at the two people in the ring suspiciously, anxious, you must know that too many people spent all their spirit stones to buy Luo Chengsheng, once they lost, it would be really a few years in vain!
However, surprisingly, the two people on the stage did not make any next moves.
Luo Cheng still turned his back to An Chen, but he suddenly asked, "Can you do me a favor?" ”
An Chen showed a wry smile, "You think I'm like a bad person?" ”
"Really?" Luo Cheng said lightly: "That's my whims." ”
However, Luo Cheng obviously did not give up, he looked at An Chen's eyes with a hint of pleading, "I have only asked for someone twice in my life, and this is the second time." ”
An Chen looked at Luo Cheng's eyes, as if something was stinging in his heart, and only after half a sound did he spit out two words: "Do your best." ”
Luo Cheng smiled, at this time he felt a trace of comfort and relief, he was really too tired, he was like most living beings, he had almost no chance to live for himself.
But it's all over, Luo Cheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked up at the sky, if there was an afterlife, he just wanted to make a bead of flowers and plants, watch the clouds roll up, and bathe in the morning sunset.
Then his head hung sharply, and he couldn't breathe anymore.
……
A silence suddenly swept the audience, and people looked at Luo Cheng's still standing body, and their eyes seemed to be full of disbelief.
He...... He's dead!
Immediately the crowd erupted in countless insults, and those who had lost their families because of him were eager to crush his body to pieces.
"Quiet!"
At this time, Wang Shitong on the rostrum said lightly, his voice suddenly exploded in people's minds like the power of heaven and earth, and the entire martial arts arena returned to calm in an instant.
Wang Shitong frowned, he couldn't imagine that Luo Cheng would die, let alone that An Chen's final outburst would make it impossible for the four of them to rescue Luo Cheng.
If you make a move, the Great Sect Protector Array will inevitably erupt, and the power that the sect has accumulated for thousands of years will be exhausted!
Which is more important? He, Wang Shitong, as the sect master, can only choose the latter!
An Chen looked at Luo Cheng with a dull gaze, he didn't feel the joy of winning at all, he only remembered Luo Cheng's final explanation.
"Antler Village."
This should be Luo Cheng's last concern, and at the same time, it also makes An Chen's heart seem to be blocked by a stone, heavy.
"Don't worry." An Chen said silently, and stood up with his body.
Fang Zheng also recovered from Luo Cheng's death at this time, and he read out: "This year's outer disciple is the first in the competition, An Chen!" ”
……
Time flies, and at this time, a week has passed since the outer disciple Dabi.
Now An Chen's injuries have recovered, and at the same time, because of his outstanding performance in the big competition, he not only received a reward belonging to the champion, but also received an additional reward from the sect.
A mid-level martial art in the body refining realm, palm thunder seal! and an additional sect contribution worth 10,000.
Not only that, but An Chen's small courtyard was even broken through the threshold by some internal disciples. They all tried to woo and promised rich rewards, but in the end, An Chen was really unbearable, so he could only hang a sign at the gate of the courtyard that said "Do not disturb when you cultivate".
On this day, An Chen wore a dark color costume and came to a remote place under the four peaks alone, and the disciples of the Jingshan Sword Sect called this place Wangxiangpo.
It means looking at your hometown and missing your relatives.
As the saying goes, immortals are different, and people have different paths, once they step into the path of cultivation, how many joys and sorrows become like sinking sand in the rolling river of time.
It is only when people are dying that they understand what is true and what is false, and if they can't protect what they want, then where is the meaning of cultivation?
An Chen looked around, and after a while, he came to a tombstone, and there were still some stone chips at the base of the tombstone, which had obviously just been excavated.
This is Luo Cheng's tombstone!
An Chen took out a gourd in his arms, opened the stopper and took a sip, and then poured the rest of the wine on the tombstone.
At this moment, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him.
An Chen said lightly: "How?" ”
"It's a bit hard to find."
"What's the matter, in the Dawei Dynasty, there is still a place where your Royal Highness the princess can't find it?" An Chen turned his head and looked at Li Xi with the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.
Li Xi pursed his lips and said: "I found it, but unfortunately Luo Cheng's family has long since died!" ”
"Are they all dead?" An Chen asked with some surprise.
Li Xi nodded solemnly and said, "This Luo Cheng's family originally had an old mother and a younger sister, but there was a famine a few years ago, and Luo Cheng had been cultivating and had not returned, so he starved to death. ”
"Besides......" Li Xi's eyes were a little hesitant, as if there was something that made it difficult for her to speak.
An Chen smiled: "When did your temperament become unafraid of the earth." ”
Li Xi said with a solemn face: "I inquired about Luo Cheng, but this may not be good news for you." ”
An Chen nodded, "I have no grudge against him, but he wants to take my life above Dabi, and I think someone must have instructed him." ”
Li Xi's eyes flickered when he heard this. "I can tell who this Luo Cheng will belong to after coming to the Jingshan Sword Sect, but I hope you can calm down, after all, with your current strength, there is too much difference between you and him."
"Oh? Then I'd like to hear who wants my life. ”
Li Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Elder Li Yun! After Luo Cheng entered the Jingshan Sword Sect, he was attached to his door, although he did it secretly, but with the power of my royal family, he still found clues. ”
"Li Yun?" An Chen's brows furrowed slightly.
Li Xi nodded and said, "Well, although I can't accept why Uncle Li Yun wanted to put you to death. But according to the intelligence from my side, this is the case. ”
An Chen smiled and didn't speak, but Li Xi felt that the air around him seemed to freeze.
"Don't come here, you know he's not something you can deal with right now."
An Chen nodded and did not answer.
"Where are Luo Cheng's mother and sister buried?"
Li Xi said: "The poor family does not have a cemetery, and the villagers have found a hillside to bury it, but fortunately, there is a thin wooden board as a mark, and I have ordered someone to rebury it." ”
"Thank you!"
"Hehe......" Li Xi smiled: "You are really strange, then Luo Cheng wants to take your life, and you still worry about these things for him." ”
An Chen smiled, in his heart, Luo Cheng was just a hard-working person after all.
"That's right!" Li Xi suddenly said, "Master told you to go back to Nanfeng for a trip." ”
An Chen's heart froze, "What's the matter?" Should you let the Blue Spirit Snake practice me again? ”
Li Xi smiled: "What, are you afraid?" It's not that you don't have an elm pimple, which makes the master and her old man unhappy. ”
An Chen said angrily: "Talk about things, talk about things." ”
Li Xi glanced at An Chen, this guy obviously knows everything, but he doesn't know why he always avoids it. She pursed her lips and said, "I don't know, I only know that it's about the Hundred Cave Cliff." ”
"Cave Cliff?" An Chen was stunned, this name seemed to be a little familiar. He lowered his head and thought about it, and then suddenly realized: "Are you talking about the Hundred Cave Cliff that Meng Zhan has been to?" ”
Li Xi said: "That's right. ”
An Chen said: "Okay, then after I go back, I will go directly after I finish dealing with the matter of entering the inner door, but I have been annoyed by those who have come to woo me in the past few days." ”
Li Xi raised his eyebrows, crossed his hands on his waist and said, "Are you showing off in disguise?" ”
An Chen said seriously: "Am I like that person? ”
Li Xi also said seriously: "Indeed! ”
An Chen was speechless for a while.
"Whoa!" Li Xi stretched out her hand, only to see a key lying quietly in her palm. "This is the key to your new courtyard, everything has been prepared, you can go directly, it is the last room in the courtyard of the inner disciples of the West Peak."
"Hmm...... Yes? An Chen was originally happy in his heart, it was really a beautiful thing to have a rich friend, but when he heard the end, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Xifeng Inner Gate Disciple Hall? ”
"That's right! You heard it right, it's the Inner Gate Disciple Hall of the West Peak. ”
"Why not the North Peak? Or the east and south peaks will do. ”
The corners of Li Xi's mouth hooked, "I don't know about this, but Master told me that this is the decision of the sect master and the other two sword leaders." ”
After speaking, she stuck out her tongue mischievously and said, "Although I don't know what the intention is, in my opinion, my best days are probably coming to an end." ”
An Chen said bitterly: "Needless to say, then Meng Zhan's death has something to do with me, I can have good fruits to eat when I go to Xifeng?" I'm afraid that those who have received his favor before will inevitably trouble me. ”
Li Xi said without cutting down: "Whoever wants to trouble you, you can report the name of this princess." ”
An Chen smiled and didn't speak, if that's the case, wouldn't it make people fall into the mouth of eating soft rice again?
His heart trembled, and he quickly shook his head.
Then the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then went to the south peak together.
At this time, Xiao Rong'er, as usual, was playing fish in a courtyard.
Seeing An Chen and Li Xi hurriedly enter the courtyard, she spoke: "How does Dabi feel first?" ”
An Chen smiled bitterly, "It's okay, but the west wind is far away from the north peak, if you miss the previous senior brothers, it is inconvenient to come and go." ”
Xiao Rong'er had a smile in her eyes, how could she not hear what An Chen said. said: "If you are not satisfied, you can go to the sect master to discuss, but I have heard that the sect master is the most taboo for someone to disagree with his decision, and the last person who was not satisfied was dropped by him at the mountain gate for three days." ”
"This ......" An Chen wanted to fight again, but when he heard this, he quickly dispelled his thoughts.
He said: "I heard Li Xi say that you came to me to discuss the matter of the Hundred Cave Cliff. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Rong'er's face became extremely solemn, "Well, this Hundred Cave Cliff is very important, and you and Li Xi need to go on a trip." And this matter is related to the future of Li Xi......"
When An Chen and Li Xi heard this, they were shocked, could it be that there were any secrets in this hundred cave cliffs......
