Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 21: Green Sword Master

   "What are you going to do?"

  Beside the broken bridge, Wei Wu asked Xia Fan in both directions.

   "To be honest, I don't know." Xia Fan squatted in front of the rift valley, looking at the opposite cliff-the visual distance between the two sides was about 15 meters, which is not a sky that cannot be crossed. When everyone found that Luo Qing's words were true and that there was a wooden kite in the cave, their mentality eased a lot, at least they were no longer as irritable as before.

   After all, it is important to save your life. Although it is a pity to fail this time, there are many failures in the imperial examination, and there is no need to force the examination to pass. It will be three years later.

For Xia Fan, three years means that there will be a lot of time to understand the world at night. What's more, he has already obtained a bottle of the source of spiritual fire, and he can pass the level if he persists for two more days. If it is not a last resort, he does not want to give up. . But the problem is that he can't tell whether it's a "last resort" moment.

  What is the manifestation of Dahuangshaye, what is the danger and the way to deal with it? The information he knows is so little that it is difficult to make effective analysis and judgments.

   One thing is certain. The Shikao is set up to select outstanding talents. It is by no means a "death game" of ten deaths and no life. This means that there are methods or methods to survive the night in the town. But does it require several people to complete it together or is it just a single person? What are the requirements for talents and spells? If he insists on staying without knowing this, he will undoubtedly give his life to the sky to decide.

   He has never forgotten that the Privy Council is a high-risk department, and the number of casualties in the exam sounds reasonable. Even the cheap master has repeatedly told that dealing with evil is a serious matter, and Dahuang Shaye is afraid that it is not the evil among the evils, and it would be normal to accidentally break into it.

"Brother Xia... why don't you quit with me." Wei Wushuang hesitated and said, "I know that Xiongtai's ability is much higher than mine. It is only a matter of time before entering the Privy Council. In that case, be late. Three years is nothing. Look at those aristocratic children, they are not all going to hold on."

   Judging from the people who follow Luo Qing, there are about two hundred candidates who tend to give up. Counting the hundreds of candidates who have been eliminated before, the number has exceeded three-quarters of the reference candidates, and there are many disciples from the family. And in the remaining quarter, there must be a lot of hesitators, which means that most people chose to avoid when faced with the possibility of the Great Wilderness Night.

   I have to say, this is the common thinking of normal people-exams are not worth the risk of life.

   At the same time, it also hints at a possibility: Not only is there a risk on the last day of the Shikao, but the risk is not small, so that the three families cannot shelter all the reference disciples, otherwise they will not arrange the same door to evacuate. After all, if you want to talk about the understanding of Dahuang Shaye, no one in the room should be better than the Luo family, and their decisions can already explain many problems.

   But thinking about it the other way round, the number of people determined to stay in Qingshan Town is already less than half. Calculated based on the pass rate of nearly 50% in the past, it means that as long as they stay, the probability of passing the exam will be doubled.

   This really makes Xia Fan dilemma.

   "Let me think about it again," he exhaled after thinking for a long time. "It will take at least half a day to build a flying platform. It won't be too late to wait for tomorrow to decide. You can line up first and try to get there earlier."

   Seeing this, Wei Wushuang couldn't continue to persuade him, so he nodded silently.

   Xia Fan knew very well in his heart that even if he wanted to leave, he had to wait until no one was left quietly. After all, besides him, there was a fox demon who could not move. If the fox demon walks with everyone in full view, the guarantee to meet him is the prison of the Privy Council.

   After leaving his hometown for a while, Xia Fan returned to the hotel.

   opened the door of the room, he couldn't help being taken aback.

   I don't know when the candle was lit, and there was a figure sitting beside the bed.

   Li woke up.

  ……

   "If I were you, I wouldn't move around until the serious injury was healed."

   Xia Fan walked to the bed and noticed that the other side was flushed and sweat was coming out of her forehead. Obviously, a simple gesture of supporting herself and sitting up took a lot of her energy.

   "I am a demon, not a human, and not as vulnerable as you..."

  'S tone is still as harsh as before, but the faint tone reveals the actual condition of his body.

   Xia Fan curled his lips, climbed onto the table and opened the window, and bright sunlight poured into the house.

   The fox demon subconsciously covered his head, "What are you going to do?" There was a rare panic in his voice.

"Let the air circulate, a ventilated room is more suitable for the patient to recover." He looked at the other party with interest-what Li just blocked was obviously the pair of pricked ears, considering that he already knew her identity. This is undoubtedly a conditioned reflex action. "It's not the first time I have seen it. There is nothing to cover. Besides, I think it's quite interesting, at least not ugly."

   Li slowly lowered his hand after reacting, frowning dissatisfiedly, "What nonsense are you talking about."

   "This is the case, believe it or not."

   Xia Fan opened the quilt as he spoke to check the opponent's injury, but this time the fox demon did not show any resistance. Compared to close contact, she actually seemed to mind her appearance more.

   There are blood stains on the bandage, which should have been caused by her moving her body without authorization, but compared to the wound across the abdomen, this amount of bleeding is not worth mentioning. It's not the kind of hemorrhage that can soak clothes, it's good news.

   It only takes a day and a half to regain consciousness and contain the expansion and deterioration of the injury. Li's previous remarks are not a bluff.

   If it were changed to a human, it would have been so cold.

"It's okay, don't move, just lie down and rest." Xia Fan pressed her body again, "I will reload the medicine at night and change the bandage by the way. Of course, the pain is definitely inevitable, but you even have stitches. If you can persist, changing the dressing should not be a problem—"

   "Why?" Li interrupted him in a low voice.

   "What?" Xia Fan raised an eyebrow.

   "Why... you want to save me?" After a long silence, she repeated.

   "What's the strange problem? It doesn't need any special reason to save a partner?"

   He actually said partner?

   Li was stunned for a moment, it was the first time she heard humans call herself that.

   "What...what do you want from me?"

   No, it's not right. She can't be confused by a name. People's behavior is driven by interests. This has nothing to do with xinxing, but the essence of human beings.

   "That's too much." Xia Fan shrugged.

   This answer also surprised Li. She thought that the other party would continue to cover up, but she didn't expect to say it directly.

   Li resisted the painful wound and took a breath, "Tell me?"

   "It's almost the same as before, mainly chatting. But I want to continue the cooperation, preferably for a long time. After all, there are too many problems to understand, and a day or two is not enough."

   Li froze, she was a little suspicious of her ears for a while, is this person's head okay? If she understood correctly, a person who aspires to become an alchemist would actually think about establishing a long-term relationship with the demon. Does this guy know that he is going to serve in the Privy Council in the future?

   Considering that he had dared to say the absurd saying of "using understanding to eliminate prejudice, and then popularizing it among the alchemists", perhaps his head is really a bit abnormal.

   "No." She flatly refused.

   "Why?"

   "I want to avenge the Privy Council, and you are the alchemist of the Privy Council. Sooner or later we will become enemies."

   "Why is revenge?"

   "My master..." Li's voice lowered, "She was captured by the Privy Council."

   "But you clearly said that you don't have a master." Xia Fan said curiously.

"Because she has never accepted a disciple, and I am not allowed to call her master. In fact, I don't even know her real name. But..." She paused, "After self-realization, she has always regarded her as a master. Look."

   "Is she a human?"

   Li nodded.

"Is it because of being with the demon? Wrong..." Xia Fan quickly overturned this speculation, "If this is the case, they should give priority to arresting you. But listen to you, the Privy Council is not like Coming for you."

   "Not really, they don't even know that I exist."

"Sorrow...After all, people cannot come back to life after death. I understand how you want revenge, but what would your master think? Does she really want you to have revenge?" Xia Fan decided to use his experience of being poisoned for many years to launch a spiritual chicken soup offensive. "After all, your opponent is the Privy Council. It is not too much to describe it as a pebble hitting a stone. Rather than dying at the hands of the enemy, I think your master wants you to live well. Even if you succeed in vengeance, you will get nothing but emptiness. Well, happiness is the most important thing, do you want me to give you... Forget it, there is no face here."

   "What are you talking about?" Li looked at him weirdly, "Who told you that my master is dead?"

   "Ahem -" Xia Fan was almost choked to ~www.ltnovel.com~ not dead? "

"Master had anticipated this day a long time ago, just to make me forget her, as if I had never seen her. The Privy Council will not endanger her life, it will only make her never see the sky again. As for keeping me alive... …Master said the same thing as you." She bit her lip, "But how can I forget everything from those years? If I abandon this memory, I will be no different from death, so I want revenge on the Privy Council. , To rescue Master from them!"

  Because of his emotions, Li coughed violently at the end of speaking, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

   Xia Fan gently patted her back, and asked after she calmed down, "When was your master caught?"

   "...... Eight years ago."

   Yes, she really went to the exam room more than once.

"Have you ever thought that those might just be your master's comforting words?" Xia Fan tried to persuade in a calm tone, "After all, it has been so long, even if he didn't die at that time, it may not be all right now. The Privy Council wants to arrest. She, it's always a holiday between the two sides. Since it falls into the hands of the enemy, it will definitely not end well. You know the yamen's prison? Ordinary prisoners will be thrown in, and they will not be human in a few months."

   "My master is not an ordinary prisoner."

   "The tricky prisoner will be even more miserable--"

   "Before she met me, she was a green sword in the Privy Council."

   "It's hard to be spared...wait," Xia Fan was taken aback, "What did you say? Your master used to be from the Privy Council? What is Qingjian?"

   "The blue sword is second only to Yuyi and is equivalent to six second-rank officials." Li slowly said, "Master did not commit any crimes, she just defected from the Privy Council."
