Chapter 65
Cold... It's so cold, I feel that my bones are about to freeze. Xuanyuan Zhicheng, you can't sleep, you can't sleep...
Xuanyuan Zhicheng kept telling himself that he could not close his eyes no matter what happened, and he had to persevere and it would be over soon.
But... in the face of this situation, it is indeed unbearable, and the strong sleepiness forces him to be unable to open his eyes and his eyelids are about to close. What should I do...
I felt a little man next to me telling me to go to bed soon, and the sound was like a lullaby, constantly driving away the cold and warmth in Xuanyuan Zhicheng's ears.
Just as Xuanyuan Zhicheng was about to fall asleep, a clear voice came from his mind: "Zhicheng, wake up, can't sleep! Zhicheng, wake up!"
That was Linghu Yuxuan's voice, and he was the girl he loved most in his life.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng, who reacted, curbed his thoughts of giving up.
No, I can't sleep. I came here to protect the people around me, so... I open my eyes and can't sleep!
Thinking of Xuanyuan Zhicheng suddenly opened his half-open eyes, all his sleepiness seemed to be gone.
At this time, he was inhaling and exhaling heavily, his forehead was covered with sweat, and everything around him was extremely quiet, and he could only hear the sound of water flowing.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng only felt tired all over.
It was so dangerous that I almost fell asleep. Fortunately, I had you.
Xuan'er, are you calling me? I feel a voice in my mind calling me.
I already have you in my subconscious mind. We have just been together for a while, but don’t worry, I will definitely become stronger and protect you, I swear.
After a moment
"Time is here."
When Xiao Xuechen saw Xuanyuan Zhicheng still soaking in the water tenaciously, he nodded with satisfaction. This kid was a little perseverance. Most people had fallen asleep long ago, and even lied and deceived him that he had completed the task, but Xuanyuan Zhicheng was different. He finally restrained his sleep with his strong willpower.
"Knot, is it over?" Xuanyuan Zhicheng shivered, his whole body shivered unconsciously, and subconsciously touched his arm.
He looked pale and suddenly realized that his body seemed to be unconscious, and his legs seemed to be unable to move and were already numb.
Get moving quickly, why don’t you obey this?
"Well, come out of the glacier quickly."
"Yes..." Xuanyuan Zhicheng took a deep breath, gasped for difficulty, and prepared to get up little by little. Because he had been soaking for too long, the powerful chill covered his whole body, which made him shiver and shivered because of the cold.
Cold, my whole body was cold, and it was biting cold, and it felt like it was like a knife cut. I ruthlessly plundered inch of flesh and blood, and I felt my whole body tremble.
What should I do if I finally succeed but can't move? I must not let Xiao Daxian help me up. I have to prove my sincerity.
"Please give me some time."
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was struggling and moved hard. No, he had to slow down. This was too cold. I had to walk slowly, so I couldn't be numb enough to be unconscious.
At this time, Xiao Xuechen thought to himself: "This kid is still showing off his strength. Should you say you are stubborn or you are strong."
Boy, I saw your sincerity, and I watched the whole process.
It seems that the apprentice I want to accept this time is very interesting. Xuanyuan Zhicheng, I already recognize you.
Xiao Xuechen: "Okay, it's better to hurry up."
Just when Xuanyuan Zhicheng's face darkened, I wanted to be faster, but my leg was not in control. It was obviously not far away, but it was so hard to walk. The cold and biting coldness never subsided. I finally took a step, but the other leg couldn't use it, as if it was frozen.
It's so cold... I just want to find a warm bonfire to keep warm now. It's so cold. Work hard, work harder, hurry up... come out.
Only after ten minutes did Xuanyuan Zhicheng successfully struggle out of the glacier, but his legs were trembling uncontrollably, and he felt that his whole body was no longer his own.
"What, what, do you... agree with me?" Xuanyuan Zhicheng shivered, his legs and feet a little unstraight.
"You have successfully passed my test, why don't you come to pay homage to Master."
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was overjoyed. It was so good that all his efforts were not in vain. Master was finally willing to accept me as his disciple!
Xuanyuan Zhicheng's current mood is hard to describe in words. When he was about to kneel down, his leg fell forward without control.
Oh no, my legs became numb after running for too long, and I seemed to be unable to kneel down, which was embarrassing in front of my master.
Xiao Xuechen had no intention of helping Xuanyuan Zhicheng up, but just looked at him quietly.
"Don't worry, you just soaked in ice water, it's okay to slow down."
"Yes!" I blamed me for being too anxious just now, just like I did in the glacier before, take your time and don't be anxious.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng kept reminding himself to slow down. It was difficult to adjust his breathing. He felt a little better. Before he could rest, he immediately knelt down at the person in front of him, clasped his fists with great respect:
"Xuanyuan Zhicheng, the 21st generation great-grandson of the Xuanyuan family, is here. Today I am a disciple of Xiao Daxian and a father for one day. I will live up to the heavy responsibilities and thank my master for his martial arts."
"Get up, put on your clothes first, don't catch a cold."
"Yes!" Xuanyuan Zhicheng finished speaking and quickly got up to find clothes to put on, his face unconsciously filled with a beautiful smile.
Xiao Xuechen shook his head helplessly. When he first got ashore, no one would think of putting on his clothes quickly. This kid is so good. In order to show his sincerity, he wanted to find me to become a disciple. His attitude was correct, which shows your sincerity.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng, I actually recognized you from the beginning when I saw you.
Your kindness, sincerity, and a heart that wants to protect others;
Not all my apprentices accept it. What I like most is sincerity. If a person doesn’t even have basic politeness, I will ask them to invite him back directly, this child will be different from what I have seen before and will give people unexpected surprises.
After Xuanyuan Zhicheng put on his clothes, he felt much better. He first put his hands on his sleeve, as if he was looking for something, but he couldn't find anything else after searching for a long time. Therefore, Xuanyuan Zhicheng felt unparalleled embarrassment.
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was suddenly panicked, but why did he have nothing? He originally wanted to take out a valuable item and give it to Xiao Xuechen as his gift to him, but now...
Now even though he has searched all the parts of his body, he has not found a suitable gift. Now, why didn’t he think about preparing it?
Thinking of Xuanyuan Zhicheng's cheeks, he couldn't help but turn red, and he wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in. This was so embarrassing.
I was not prepared for the gift of apprenticeship, what should I do? The master is still watching.
Xiao Xuechen saw through Xuanyuan Zhicheng's actions at first sight. This kid is going to prepare gifts for me, right? Don't worry, my teacher doesn't care about those empty things. I accept you as my disciple. The most important thing is to make you a dragon-slaying master in a short period of time.
"Xuanyuan Zhicheng obeys the order!"
When Xuanyuan Zhicheng heard Xiao Xuechen's order, he had to kneel down and listen carefully to every word his master said. The gestures he made were also very standard, without any sign of fatigue.
"During the course, I received my income from the teacher. Since then, although I have been divided into masters and apprentices, I have a father and son. I should be respectful to the teacher. I have received my teachings and will never forget them. I have a love that comes from my original heart and will never regret it. I will show my solemnity."
"I remember it in my heart. I wish to use everything my master taught on the right path and not do any evil things that harm the master. If there is any violation, both man and god will abandon it and will not die well!"
Seeing this, Xiao Xuechen nodded with satisfaction. Okay, what I want is this momentum! This is my Xiao Xuechen's apprentice!
After Xuanyuan Zhicheng finished the apprenticeship ceremony, the two of them frankly found a place to sit down.
"Boy, is the water very cold?"
Xiao Xuechen knew the most about this. Judging from his reaction just now, his face turned white with cold.
I can’t be familiar with the temperature here. I felt very cold when I first entered, but later I became a habit and felt like I was taking a hot spring bath.
"Yes, Master, this is more than just a cold, this is completely coming to hell on earth!"
Xuanyuan Zhicheng said that if I have experienced it once, I will no longer think about experiencing it again. This is simply a life-threatening thing.
"I haven't experienced your master." Xiao Xuechen calmly said.
"Hey, has the master experienced it too?" Xuanyuan Zhicheng was surprised. He didn't expect that his master also experienced it, so how did the master persist in the end?
"Yes, my teacher has tried to practice in the magma area, but it is not like water in the pond, people will turn into ashes. They just try to cultivate their own calmness under that hot breath. Not only that, they have also been to many places."
After hearing this, Xuanyuan Zhicheng was relieved and exclaimed, scared me. I thought someone could walk in the magma. If he could do it, it would be a real god.
"Do you know why I brought you here to test?"
"I don't know what Master said."
Xiao Xuechen: "Although this river is very ice-like, it won't feel so cold after adapting. It even has the strength to strengthen itself. Don't believe it. I did this when I was young, otherwise why do you think your master is so strong?"
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was very surprised after hearing this. His pupils were widened. The river clearly looked very cold, but he didn't expect it to have such a great effect!
Having said that, the master's willpower is really tenacious. I tried it and felt that it was not as cold as possible, but this willpower requires long-term persistence to be effective. After all, there is a saying that the sword is sharpened by sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.
And can I become a person like my master? At the beginning, when you took a disciple, I thought you were just a liar. Since you taught me the skills twice, I realized that Master, you are not an ordinary person, so I really want to worship you as your teacher.
"Master, you are not old now."
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Zhicheng actually joked about Xiao Xuechen, and he didn't like this at all. Besides, that was just a superficial appearance. I didn't expect that time passed so quickly, and in a blink of an eye...
"I am indeed older than you young people."
Nowadays, children are more talented and even stronger. I look forward to the rise of your generation, and it is time for these dragon clans and strange beasts to be eliminated.
"In the future, I can only look for me after dusk, and it is the best at night. I won't show up at other times."
Xuanyuan Zhicheng was very surprised after hearing this. Hiss, isn’t it all during the day? Although he also has time at night, why is this?
"Why, Master."
