Chapter 4: Prophecy
Shen Bing couldn't care about the stomachache, he was very curious why such a weak little girl could have such a great strength with a light kick, which was really incredible. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Why did you hit someone?" asked Mingming, who was on the side, questioned Xiaohong.
"Where did you do it, it's obviously a foot!" Xiaohong retorted, she thought to herself that she didn't make any effort, it shouldn't hurt, but looking at Shen Bing's appearance, it seemed to be really painful.
"You see he's grinning in pain, you're obviously doing it, well, it's too heavy!" Mingliang said as he went to help Shen Bing, and Shen Bing waved his hand to indicate that it was okay.
Shen Bing seemed to have forgotten the pain in his body, his heart was full of curiosity at the moment, it was really a famous family, any inconspicuous little girl was so powerful, this did not make him feel unhappy, on the contrary, he really wanted to end the introductory training as soon as possible and learn the real ethereal martial arts.
However, it has only been a few days since I got started, and I guess I will have to continue the boring standing and running circle training.
At the time of the lamp, he returned to the collective dormitory, met his classmates, and listened to people's chats.
"Have you seen Mr. Emptiness?" asked one of the men, as if he had seen it.
"I heard that the head of the family is surnamed Shangguan, and there is a baby daughter, what is her name, I remember it just now, look at my memory, and forget it in a blink of an eye!"
"Shangguan Xiaohong!" replied the other.
Shangguan Xiaohong! This is not the little girl I just met! Shen Bing was so excited that he almost screamed, but on the surface, he pretended not to know anything, and quietly listened to their chat, trying to hear other news.
Everyone was chatting, and a middle-aged man came in outside, and the dormitory was quiet in an instant.
The man glanced at the dormitory and said slowly, "Rest early, continue training tomorrow!" Before the sound could reach the far corner of the dormitory, he turned and left.
When Xiaohong returned to the door, the probe looked inside, and found no one, so she tiptoed into the room. Just as he was raising his left foot, before he could hit the ground, he heard a voice: "Where are you going to play again?"
His father didn't know when he appeared by her side, and once the thing he was worried about happened, he would be sure, at least he didn't have to worry about it anymore. Her left foot fell down normally, making a slight noise, which seemed to be silent in ordinary human hearing, but in the ears of Mr. Void, he heard seventy-seven forty-nine different sounds, and even in the final footsteps, he heard his daughter's thoughts: she was ready to lie.
"Didn't go anywhere, just looked at the scenery outside. Red replied.
"You've gone to see someone today!" Mr. Void didn't speak like an inquiry, but a statement, because he didn't need to ask, he knew what was going on.
"It's not one, it's several, walking on the road, you will always run into people, and there are so many people on the ethereal peak!" Xiaohong said.
"Little Red, do you know what Daddy's greatest skill is?" Mr. Void asked generally.
Xiaohong felt that he was knowingly asking, "Who in this world doesn't know that the most powerful thing in this world is your old man's swordsmanship, the emptiness swordsmanship, the space-time enchantment, go back to the past!" Xiaohong pretended to be helpless and said.
"Wrong. You only know the Void Sword Technique, and what I'm best at is not going back to the past, but predicting the future!" Mr. Void seemed to be planning to tell Red something she didn't know.
"Dad, you're bragging again, you said you can predict the future, then you predict what I'm going to say next!" Xiaohong said she didn't believe his father's words, and she even wondered why she was afraid to see her father just now, an old man who loves to brag, why should she be afraid of him. This is actually a kind of subconscious, because she has a weak heart, why is her heart weak, because she was touched by a stranger, or the opposite sex she just met. It's not a big deal, but she's too young to think it's a thing.
"Don't raise the bar, I have something serious to tell you!" Mr. Void wanted to speak in a serious tone, but he really couldn't be serious in the face of this pearl in his palm.
"What's the matter? is it a big thing to save the country and save the people?" Xiaohong said non-seriously.
"Almost, or, something bigger. Mr. Void said.
"Oh! I guess I'm going to predict the future, and it seems to be from your father's true biography!" said Little Red mischievously.
"Don't mess around, I'll tell you something, you have to be serious!" Mr. Void turned around and stroked his beard, as if he was organizing his language, thinking about where to start.
"Have you ever observed the world below the mountain, and how is the climate different?" Mr. Void asked.
"Dad, you obviously don't allow me to go down the mountain, how do I know what the climate outside is, I just feel that the mountain is getting colder and colder!" Xiaohong said.
"Yes, almost, a long time ago, there was not so much snow on the frozen continent, there were four seasons in the world, cold and summer, spring, summer, autumn and winter, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, a prosperous scene, but later, born with a vision, half of the year is snowing, and the other half of the time is very hot. This is not a normal natural phenomenon, but because there are evil spirits rampant in the world, which leads to seasonal disorder and misery. A few years ago, my empty swordsmanship was a little successful, so I wanted to kill demons and restore peace in the world, and I was almost about to succeed, but because of a thought, I failed, because I didn't want to hurt the innocent.
In the past few years of retreat, I have figured out one thing, there must be sacrifice to be saved, but it is too late, the demon has become a climate, even if I have practiced the Void Sword Technique, I will no longer be her opponent.
I have mastered all the martial arts of the Ethereal Sect, but to no avail. I had no choice but to take a risk and walked into the forbidden place of my sect, the Spirit Void Valley, where I spent a few years comprehending predictions that could predict some things in the future. At this time, I realized that everything is the destiny of heaven, and the destiny of heaven is difficult to violate, and I know the destiny of heaven, but I can't change it. ”
Mr. Void said to himself, and then he was a little sad.
Xiaohong was confused and didn't know where to start, so she had to say, "Dad, what are you talking about?"
Mr. Void shook his head, realizing that his storytelling skills were limited, so he stopped pretending to be false and started straight from the beginning.
"So I'll be brief. You remember it first, it will help later. The frozen continent used to be very peaceful and prosperous, and then for some reason, an ice snake descended from the sky, and the ice snake contained the extreme cold of the world, called the ice spirit, which caused the ice continent to snowfall all year round, and she could absorb the cold of the world, enhance the coldness of the ice spirit, and add cold to cold, over the years, she could transform into a human form, and even feather into a demon, at that time, the frozen continent was going to fall into her hands, but this process was very slow, and it took a long, long time for her mana to grow. A few years ago, I could have killed her with my own hands, but I missed this opportunity, in fact, this is also destiny, and she should not die.
Now this mission has landed on your generation, and it has a great deal to do with you, and the one who played an important role in it is the boy you met recently. Originally, the heavenly machine could not be revealed, and I leaked the heavenly machine to you, which caused me a lot of damage. I can only stop at it, otherwise I am afraid that I will be damned. ”
"Dad, don't scare me, it feels like a dying entrustment, you're not going to die, are you!" Xiaohong said nervously pulling Mr. Void's sleeve.
"You girl, don't say something good, dad doesn't die so easily, you have to remember what I said today, but don't tell people everywhere, that won't do you any good. Mr. Void said.
"Then you say it's getting colder now, do you mean that the ice snake has reappeared?" asked Xiaohong.
"No, she's always been there, but now it's stronger. Mr. Void said.
"Then you're asking me to kill her? You can't kill her so powerful, how can I kill her!" Xiaohong said helplessly.
"And that Shen Bing, you remember, he is the destiny of heaven, although he doesn't know anything now, but we have to believe him!" Mr. Void said.
Hearing her father mention this Shen Bing, Xiaohong believed that her father really had the ability to predict the future, but it was hard for her to believe how such a young man with low martial arts could take on this heavy responsibility.
"Don't worry, that's right, he's the one chosen by God, and I've tested him, and he's passed.
It turns out that Mr. Void has long understood the prediction, but he himself doesn't believe it, so he wants to give it a try. A few years ago, after he fought with the Ice Snake, he was seriously injured, although his martial arts skills will recover soon, but it will also take time, fortunately, Shen Bing and they built a shed for him, avoiding the danger of being eaten by wild beasts. In return, he gave the Holy Sword Order to Shen Bing. With the Holy Sword Order in hand, the speed of learning martial arts will be doubled. Even though he was in retreat, he was well aware of what was going on outside. Shen Bing has long had the strength to enter the Ethereal Sect, and he has not been allowed to come in, which is also to test his patience, to see if he has a heart that does not give up, and the mentality of constantly working hard for the goal is the most important thing. He practiced year after year in order to enter the Ethereal Sect, failed again and again, and continued to try again and again, which shows that he has passed the most important test: perseverance.
Of course, Shen Bing didn't know all this, he always thought that he would not be selected because of his dull qualifications, so he practiced hard.
After Mr. Void finished speaking, he walked away, leaving Xiaohong alone to stand still, her mind distracted, trying to digest what her father had just said, trying to get a reliable explanation of things, because it all came so suddenly, and the amount of information was too great for her to digest for a while.
So, what is the combination of ice and ice, and the separation of ice and fire?
That was what his father said to her yesterday when he didn't let her play with Shen Bing. From this point of view, his father really has some kind of ability to predict the future, otherwise how would he know about Shen Bing's existence? It can't be voyeurism!
Then why did you change your hexagram again today, saying that Shen Bing and I are the key figures in defeating the Ice Snake? That's not for me to play with him, alas, the adult world is really complicated, and the ideas are ever-changing, and I can't keep up with that rhythm at all.
Xiaohong was lying on the bed, still thinking about these questions, tossing and turning, unable to understand.
