Jing Che finally woke up and found out why Si Ming's somewhat pitiful eyes and hesitant expression were behind.
However, before Jingche could think about it, several people had already started fighting. Jingche saw Hua Ruyan's cold and sharp eyes clearly in the blur of sword light.
She suddenly and inappropriately remembered the first time she was thrown into the killing field four years ago. Hua Ruyan blocked the sword for her and asked her angrily, "Xiao Shiba, why don't you hide!"
She wanted to hide now, but she couldn't. When her whole body and mind depended on this friend, they became rivals who had to fight to the death.
The sky is dark and the earth is gloomy.
After fighting for a day, only she and Hua Ruyan were left alive. There were several freshly dead bodies lying on the ground, and their breathing sounds were particularly clear in the silence.
Hua Ruyan walked slowly over the corpse, with blood still dripping from the blade of the sword. Her expression was only as cold as Shura, and there was no longer any lovely noise in her usual expression.
Jing Che was a little panicked and gasped, "Let's stop. When the door opens in three days, we will take the opportunity to kill everyone outside and escape. Let's escape, okay?"
Hua Ruyan said coldly: "Xiao Shiba, do you really think you can escape? Then why haven't we escaped after four years?"
Jingche was speechless when asked.
"Xiao Shiba, I am not noble at all. If I have to choose between the two of us, I will choose myself." Hua Ruyan walked closer and closer.
Suddenly she raised her sword and came towards her, and Jing Che quickly turned around to avoid it.
The two of them have almost grown up together in the past three years. Perhaps Jing Che's attainments in martial arts are slightly higher than Hua Ruyan's. However, this time Hua Ruyan has brought a life-or-death determination with overwhelming momentum. Jing Che doesn't want to kill her, so he can only kill her.
Forced to be on the defensive.
In the sealed killing field, they faced off for one day and two nights, long enough to cover every minute and second of the past four years. In the end, both of them were almost exhausted, and they only relied on their last instinct to fight and block.
Hua Ruyan's moves began to become simple and rough, completely giving up all routines, like a beast that had reached the end of its crossbow, trying its best to bite the opponent's throat.
Jing Che stumbled over a corpse while stumbling back. Hua Ruyan seized the opportunity and chopped it down with her sword without hesitation.
What was getting closer and closer in his pupils was the snow-white sword blade, which magnified into a sheet of silver light. Instinctively, Jing Che tightened his grip on the sword in his hand.
Seeing that the sharp blade was about to reach her body, suddenly, a sharp sword light struck out with a thunderous aura that shook the sky. It instantly penetrated Hua Ruyan's body and finally sank into the rock wall, leaving a deep sword mark.
The whole stone room was shaken by it, and the mountains of bones on the ground rolled around a few times, then slowly stopped, and everything became quiet.
Darkness surrounded me again, and the blood came out of nowhere, and my hands were covered with a sticky substance that was as cold as ice and as hot as heat.
It was Yihensha! At the last moment of life and death, she could not help but use Yihensha!
Hua Ruyan made a dull sound when her body fell to the ground, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground crisply. Jing Che was at a loss, with a look of confusion on his face.
She still had a breath and raised her hand tremblingly, as if she was struggling to hold Jing Che's hand.
"I don't want to kill you... I don't want to! I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Jing Che just tried to cover the bloody hole in her chest in a panic, but he lost his sense of control in the chaos.
"It should be like this, but I overestimated my abilities..." Hua Ruyan just laughed in the end and said with difficulty, "He promised me complete freedom... Then I forgot who I should be... Xiao Shiba...
In fact, I saw the pear blossoms blooming that winter...it was really beautiful...I liked it very much."
Jing Che made no move and watched helplessly as Hua Ruyan's hand finally dropped again.
She was dead, but blood was still flowing from her body, like a red river that was about to swallow her whole.
This girl who once held her hand and said that they would be dependent on each other from now on, this girl who always called her "Little Eighteen" in a righteous manner, this girl who wanted to see the flowers bloom until the end, she killed with her own hands
Got her.
What's even more ridiculous is that she refused to use any of the moves Baili Fengjian taught her from beginning to end, but in the end she actually used Yihensha to kill her best friend who had been with her for four years.
"Ah——" The girl's sad and desperate wail wandered between the cold stone walls, and the echoes overlapped several layers, echoing back to her ears with the inseparable blood.
After being silent for a long time, Jing Che slowly covered her face, staggered and knelt down weakly, her sobs getting louder and louder. It was as if something was rapidly collapsing in the cold air, and she murmured inarticulately, "Master...
Master...why..."
I don’t know how much time passed before the thick stone door opened.
The light comes in and the sound of footsteps approaches.
Si Ming walked through the corpses to find Jing Che. He looked at Jing Che, who was huddled in a corner in front of him, just like the one who first entered the Shura field. His tone was calm, but he still said the same words: "Congratulations."
Jing Che raised her face, her small face was covered with blood and tears, so dirty that her original appearance could hardly be seen. She stared at Si Ming for a long time, and finally there was some movement in her numb eyes.
Si Ming stretched out his hand to pull her up, but she threw her away violently. Like a little beast with its fur exploding, it suddenly roared hysterically: "You know that, right? Why didn't you tell me? Why did you have to do this?
Let me kill her with my own hands!!"
Si Ming replied calmly: "I asked you, this is your own choice."
"But why didn't you say it was her!!" She couldn't wait to vent her emotions and find out the source of the mistake.
"This is not within my scope of responsibility."
Jing Che stared at him fiercely: "You are just like Xiao Jin, a cold-blooded monster!"
"I always have." Si Ming was indifferent.
Jing Che couldn't yell, trying to find something strange on Si Ming's face. At this time, he continued: "It's useless to blame me, because it's not me who caused all this, it's yourself."
It's you who caused all this.
Jing Che's eyes widened in disbelief.
Yes...it's herself.
If she hadn't insisted on not giving in to Xiao Jin, Hua Ruyan wouldn't have stayed with her. Maybe she would have lived outside now instead of dying here miserably. She suddenly thought of those who also died in front of her.
Qiying, thinking of all the people she killed with her own hands, and the punishment Si Ming received. Without her persistence, then... everything might not be like this.
Everything she wanted to protect was falling apart.
Jing Che paused for a long time, his voice hoarse, sounding strangely tired as it echoed in the closed killing field: "Tell Xiao Jin that I want to go out."
"He's already outside."
It turns out that everyone already knew the outcome, but she was the only one struggling in the process.
*
In the end, Si Ming personally escorted Jingche out of the Shura Field. The iron door opened heavily and closed again behind him.
This was the first time that Jing Che saw the sun in the long and torturous years, but she did not feel any relief or warmth. Instead, her whole body was exposed to the sun, and a cold feeling came from the bottom of her heart.
Maybe she is destined to be a person who cannot see the light, and darkness suits her better.
Si Ming stood beside her, watching the changes in Jing Che's expression, and said every last word: "Congratulations on the 18th."
Jing Che smiled flawlessly: "Actually, Master Si Ming, your duty is just to say this."
Si Ming also laughed.
Under the sun, the girl in front of him, no, was already a woman, her smile was exquisite and perfect. He knew that she gave up the remaining bit of humanity in her body, quickly reorganized in the collapse, put it to death, and then lived.
So she should be congratulated.
Jingche left and never looked back. The Shura Field behind him was hidden among the mountains, like an airtight tomb.
She's just a zombie walking out of the grave.
"Ha, I'm finally convinced." Xiao Jin looked Jing Che up and down and said with a smile.
Jing Che looked at him coldly and slowly took off the bracelet with the divine seal from his hand: "General Xiao spent four years and finally got his wish. I admire your perseverance."
Xiao Jin took the ** Divine Seal, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it for a moment, closed his sleeves, and then laughed arrogantly: "Jingche, Jingche, if I just want the ** Divine Seal, I won't spend so much effort - Contemporary Sword Master
Disciple, heir to the blood of the Lord, you are of greater use to me."
"Is it."
"Come back to the Imperial Capital with me, and you will know."
Following Xiao Jin into the imperial capital, the magnificent imperial city spread its splendor among heavily guarded copper walls and iron gates.
Jing Che walked in calmly and without emotion, and couldn't help but think of her childhood, when she used to run carefree among the empty white brick and jade railings of the palace. She thought of her mother-in-law and those spoiled days.
, and now that I have returned to the old place, my identity has changed countless times.
The patrolling guards were wrapped in airtight armor and walked back and forth. Jing Che felt in a daze that he was transported from one hell to another.
Squinting, I saw two people walking out of the tall hall in the distance, followed by a dense group of palace maids and honor guards, the yellow ones were majestic, the red ones were enchanting.
"Do you know the two people above?"
The one in red clothes should be the one I saw in Xuebei County. I heard that she was the very popular woman around Emperor Qian Zun, so I guessed: "Red clothes, Emperor Qian Zun."
Xiao Jin squinted and nodded, Yinjie's eyes flashed with uncertainty: "You will be inseparable from the two of them in the future."
"What should I do."
"Kill Hongyi and replace him."
Jing Che was slightly surprised: "Aren't Hong Yi and you the same group?"
Xiao Jin smiled contemptuously: "If you bitch falls in love with Emperor Qian Zun, you will die. From now on, you will replace Hong Yi and monitor Emperor Qian Zun."
Surprise flashed through her eyes. Jing Che narrowed her eyes and stared at Xiao Jin's evil face. She asked straight to the point: "You want to rebel?"
Xiao Jin didn't answer, smiled arrogantly, put his hands behind his back and walked inside.
