Chapter 59:
Thousands of corpses violently grabbed at him, and the Winter Solstice screamed and ran forward!
Those ghost hands seem to have never seen such a vivid life. After thousands of years of waiting, they finally waited for a sweet flesh and blood body. All the ghosts and corpses rushed up and rushed towards the winter solstice. For a moment, it was like an overwhelming sea of corpses and blood, and he was embarrassed and had nowhere to escape.
Suddenly, the winter solstice saw black vines hanging down in front of him. Before he could think about it, he kicked his legs and grabbed the vines and swung up.
The rattan is unexpectedly strong and has become a veritable life-saving straw.
Because in the next second, where he had just stood, rotting corpses swarmed up.
If it was half a step later, he would probably be the next Takashima River.
Looking back on the winter solstice and seeing this scene, I was terrified.
The cliff in front of him was getting closer and closer. He grabbed the cane and stepped on it, but because the cliff was too narrow, his body was unstable, his center of gravity was leaning back, and he was about to fall backwards.
A hand reached out and grabbed his collar.
"let go."
The winter solstice subconsciously let go of his hand holding the rattan, and Long Shen took advantage of the situation and pulled him towards the mountain wall, pulling the person back.
The fright of escaping from death and the surprise of seeing Long Shen staggered in his heart. He was gasping for breath at the winter solstice, unable to utter a single word.
Long Shen didn't speak, he still stood there, not far from the winter solstice, with his back against the mountain wall, as steady as a rock.
"Dragon Bureau?" Winter Solstice was cautious, thinking that this would not be fake, would it?
"How did you get here?" Long Shen asked.
The winter solstice took a little breath, and told Liu Qingbo about his dive into the water to attack the giant python.
"I rescued Liu Qingbo and went ashore, but found that it wasn't the river where we used to stay, but a water pool. The pool leads to four directions. We chose the cave in the north, and after entering, we met Xing Qiaosheng..."
Long Shen said, "Xing Qiaosheng is dead."
Winter Solstice's heart skipped a beat: "Really dead? Well, what did we see...?"
Long Shen said: "What you have seen may be Xing Qiaosheng who existed in the past, including yourself."
Winter Solstice was dazed: "What do you mean?"
Long Shen said: "Have you ever thought that your own existence is not real?"
The winter solstice is blank, like listening to a book from heaven.
"Dragon Bureau, what are you talking about?"
Long Shen: "The Special Administration Bureau brought you here to practice, I instructed, and my purpose is not to make you truly become a warrior."
The winter solstice suddenly felt that the dragon in front of him was unfamiliar.
The two were so close at hand, as if they were thousands of miles apart.
"Dandelion" flickered faintly and swayed uncertainly, like a ghost flower by the Yellow Spring, drawing a blurred line of life and death.
As Long Shen's words fell, he asked blankly, "Then what is your purpose?"
"Let you all die here." Long Shen said.
The gloomy wind blows from all directions, blowing on the back of his neck and burrowing into his collar, making the winter solstice shudder.
"Why?" he heard his own voice ask.
Long Shen: "Because you are the future elites of the Special Administration Bureau and the future pillars of the cultivation world. If you want to eliminate everyone without causing suspicion, there is only one way, that is, in the name of experience and practice, let you Fold here and never get out."
Dongzhi shook his head: "I don't believe it, you are not Long Shen. What I saw must be an illusion again."
Long Shen's face was hidden in the shadows, and only the right hand holding the sword was slightly outlined in the dim light.
He is indistinguishable, good and evil.
"Not only will you die, but He Yu and Kanchao will also die. They will be damaged in Yunnan together with the three groups. No one will be spared in the end."
Long Shen's cold voice echoed in the cave, and the surroundings were silent.
Those ghost corpses were showing their teeth and claws below, waiting for them to throw themselves into the net, but they didn't make a sound. Their voices, as early as thousands of years ago, have ended here forever.
On the winter solstice, leaning against the cold stone wall, the uneven feeling made his back feel a slight tingling.
In the past, he would definitely straighten his back quickly to avoid the sharp stones behind him, but now, he needs this pain to stay awake.
Liu Qingbo, Xing Qiaosheng, Gao Daohe, Song Zhicun, real or fake situations that had existed before passed by, the Winter Solstice forced themselves to calm down and face this man who was more special than others.
"You mean you're counting us all in, but what good is that for you? Why are you doing this?"
Long Shen was silent for a moment and said, "You should understand. In this matter, whoever gets the benefit, I'm on whose side."
Dongzhi shook his head: "You are not Long Shen, Long Shen is not such a person, who are you?"
Long Shen: "In your heart, what kind of person is Long Shen?"
The winter solstice panted slightly, staring at each other closely, as if Longshen would transform into a beast in the next moment, or take on the appearance of another person.
"He is very serious, strict, and unsmiling. Because he always pursues perfection, he doesn't like others to make excuses for their mistakes, and he doesn't like others to intercede for his mistakes, but his heart is very soft and he will feed one. The poor stray cat will carefully see the efforts of others. Although he keeps saying that I am not qualified to enter the Special Administration Bureau, he will agree with my efforts, lend me his sword, and tell me what to do to go further. ."
The winter solstice wiped his face and felt that he was really worthless.
He raised his sword and pointed: "Who the **** are you!"
The other party said, "I am Long Shen."
Dongzhi didn't even know how his sword was taken, he only felt his wrist numb, the sword involuntarily let go, and it was in the opponent's hand in a blink of an eye.
The opponent's sword was handed out flat, and the tip of the sword touched his shoulder.
It was only at the winter solstice that he realized how strong this man was.
The word "Long Shen" not only means that there is no need for his teammates to worry about him, but also means how much courage it takes to fight against him.
"You're going to kill me?" Winter Solstice asked.
"I'm going to kill you." Long Shen replied.
At the winter solstice, he reached out his hand and grabbed the sword's edge, and his palm immediately felt severe pain.
Long Shen frowned slightly: "Let go."
The other party did not let go, and even tightened his grip.
Long Shen directly withdrew his sword and retreated.
But Dongzhi had a smile on his face: "You really are Long Shen! If you were an enemy, you wouldn't care if my hand would get hurt, let alone withdraw it! Long Ju, I'm Dongzhi, do you still recognize me! You Wake up!"
"...I know you. I don't have amnesia." Long Shen sighed softly. "How are your hands?"
Winter Solstice: "It hurts and bleeds."
Long Shen: "Let me see."
Winter Solstice still has doubts: "Why did you say those words just now?"
Long Shen said: "If you want to test me, I will also test you. I am not sure if your existence is real, so I am testing. Before you, I have met Liu Qingbo, Li Ying, and Lin Xuan in succession. However, They are all fake."
Winter Solstice frowned: "Fake, what do you mean?"
Long Shen: "Like I said just now, the space and time here are chaotic, and the glazed grass everywhere has turned the entire underground cave into a huge illusion. People can't tell the difference. I had to do this to test the truth, sorry."
Dongzhi knew what he meant because he was almost deceived by the fake Song Zhicun before.
Long Shen has been in the dark for a long time, and his resilience is faster than ordinary people, so he can naturally see the tears on his face on the winter solstice.
"My disciple, won't be weak and cry easily."
The winter solstice subconsciously wiped his face with the back of his hand, but his hand suddenly stopped.
He thought he had heard it wrong.
Long Shen said, "Give me your hand."
The winter solstice obediently stretches out his hand.
Long Shen knew how sharp his sword was, and the grip just now, even if he pulled away quickly, would leave a wound.
Sure enough, there were two deep cuts on the opponent's hand, one was sticky to the touch and the other was sticky.
"Have you brought emergency medicine?" he asked.
Winter Solstice: "Bring it, in my pocket."
Longshen pulled open his pocket, took out the hemostatic spray and gauze, stopped the bleeding first, and then wrapped the gauze on the upper part of his palm.
"follow me."
After walking through this steep cliff, there is a recess in the middle of the mountain wall, which is enough to sit down and rest.
People who are obsessed with cleanliness will stay in this environment for a long time, and they will learn to ignore those external badness, otherwise they will be disgusted and die when they lie on the python on the winter solstice.
He rested against the stone wall, leaving enough space for Long Shen.
"Why did you reach for the sword just now?"
"You mean to accept me as a disciple?"
The two spoke almost at the same time.
Long Shen was silent, and the Winter Solstice had to answer his question first: "Because if it is an illusion again, it will just make me wake up and get out of control. If it is you, of course you will not sit back and watch me get hurt."
This idea is correct, and it is really not easy for him to survive in the cave for so long and be safe.
Winter Solstice tentatively said: "So you just said-"
Long Shen: "Are you willing to take me as your teacher and ask me to teach you art?"
Although Dong Solstice and Liu Qingbo were competing with each other for the position of Longshen's disciple, he had also heard that there was a rule in this line of business. When apprentices, it was actually the master looking for the apprentice, not the apprentice looking for the master.
In other words, Long Shen has the right to decide who he likes and who he doesn't like. If it is not the apprentice who is sent to the door and put in his hand, he must continue.
So Winter Solstice and Liu Qingbo, in fact, just tried their best to show more presence and favorability in front of Long Shen, and that's it. Even if Long Shen wanted to accept a third person as his apprentice in the future, they were powerless to stop him.
Winter Solstice knew that he had no chance of winning.
In terms of talent, Liu Qingbo is no worse than him. The good foundation he has laid since he was a child also makes him definitely stand at a higher starting point than the Winter Solstice.
In terms of family background, Liu Qingbo's family background, his father's reputation and connections, accepting such a disciple is actually equivalent to indirectly getting a lot of benefits.
What's more, Long Shen has saved Liu Qingbo's life. With Liu Qingbo's arrogance, only Long Shen can subdue him. His parents must be happy to see this relationship.
In all fairness, seeking truth from facts, the winter solstice's choice of Longshen is also full of uncertainty.
But now the surprise came so quickly that he was a little stunned.
Long Shen couldn't wait for his response, so he frowned and said, "You don't want to?"
Then why did you always say that you want to worship yourself as a teacher over and over again?
"Of course I do!" The winter solstice seemed to be pressed by a switch, and finally had a reaction.
Long Shen snorted: "It's a very time, a very place, let's keep everything simple first, just kowtow three times here, and then go back and make up."
At the winter solstice, he stood up and straightened his clothes. He knelt down and bowed his hands like Master Fang Yang had asked him to swear in front of the tablet of the Patriarch of the Hezao Sect.
"Disciple Winter Solstice, see Master."
The voice was not loud, and it trembled a little because of forbearance of excitement, and it echoed between the caves, overlapping and overlapping.
He didn't know if the other party could see it, but he still kowtowed respectfully and seriously.
One knocks on the shape, two knocks on the heart, and three knocks for thousands of years.
From then on, the master and the apprentice are bound together, and life and death remain unchanged.
Tears filled my eyes without knowing it. The winter solstice thought that the scene of my apprenticeship should be in the hall filled with incense, and there were countless onlookers. It was like all the ceremonies of apprenticeships in the sect, but I didn't expect it to be here, even bystanders. , and only those ghosts below the cliff.
Thinking of this, my heart is both agitated and funny.
He heard Long Shen say: "There are no strict rules and regulations under my sect. The only thing to abide by is to always have a trace of gratitude for all things in the world, and use the sword in your hand to keep the world at peace."
Winter Solstice said solemnly: "I remember."
Long Shen said: "You become my disciple, it has nothing to do with whether you can pass the practical exam or not. I will not have any favoritism. If you fail the score, you will still not be able to enter the Special Administration Bureau."
The winter solstice with a thick nasal sound, gently hummed.
Long Shen frowned: "Why are you crying again?"
Winter Solstice: "The surprise came too quickly, it's a little unreal, I'm afraid I'll be trapped in another fantasy."
I was afraid that this fantasy world was too beautiful to wake up.
Long Shen stretched out his hand to squeeze his wound, and the winter solstice screamed in pain and almost jumped up.
The real pain was transmitted to the brain, and he grew from the guts, hugged the other party, and burst into tears.
Long Shen: ...
Even through a layer of clothing, he could feel the warm touch, and he finally had a real sense that he was not dreaming.
Tears flowed uncontrollably.
All fears, doubts, unease, at this moment, vented out happily.
Long Shen wanted to push him away, but the moment he used his hand, the other party's cry became even louder, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Where is this taking apprentices? Did you find a son for yourself?
But compared to his own age, the other party is indeed still a child. Thinking about the scene where he held the sword without hesitation just now, Long Shen finally patted the other party's back a few times, which was a bit clumsy.
