In the library, a young man was cleaning the dust from the scrolls on the bookshelf.
The young man's face was calm, and he seemed to be cleaning up the precious ancient scrolls in an orderly manner. In fact, his mind was already far away, thinking about everything that happened during the day.
"What do you know? It's because you have no vision! This person will definitely become a very powerful person, stronger than all the people who laugh at him, I guarantee it."
The girl's voice still lingered in his ears and was imprinted on his heart.
Wenren Zhaoye didn't even know where Luo Tianxing's unreasonable belief came from.
Not only did she come forward to defend him today, it seemed that since the two of them met, she was the only person in the world who would believe him and praise him.
She often said: Wow, Wenren Zhaoye, you train every day, you are in great physical condition!
Often when she said this, she started to laugh: "I feel like it's okay to bring another person with me during the mountaineering assessment. If you don't believe me, I'll give it a try."
After saying that, she started to climb on his back. From the first time she successfully hung on Wenren Zhaoye and was taken to the finish line, she never failed in every physical test after that. Even if the two of them came last every time, they still hung on him unshakably.
"Wow, Wenren Zhaoye, you know so much. I heard you ranked first in this quarterly exam. Can you lend me your homework?"
At first, Luo Tianxing took Wenren Zhaoye's homework back and copied it, and handed it in together the next day. Until one day, Wen Renzhao secretly copied Luo Tianxing's calligraphy at night and was discovered by her.
Wenren Zhaoye had never been so flustered in his life. He wanted to hide all the calligraphy papers on the table for fear that the girl would think he was a weirdo with evil intentions.
Luo Tianxing didn't take it seriously at all, and said happily: "In the past, my little master said every day that my handwriting was like a dog's crawling. When I go out, I must never say his name. Now I see that there is finally someone with a discerning eye. , I feel so relieved.”
Not only that, she also gave all the question papers she had written before to Wenren Zhaoye for free, and asked him to write all the homework for her after he mastered calligraphy, completely saving her trouble.
Piece by piece, others only saw Luo Tianxing using different methods to enslave Wenren Zhaoye. Only Wenren Zhaoye knew that this was not the case, and that he was actually the one who benefited a lot.
Luo Tianxing's handwriting is very beautiful, and it's not just beautiful.
Her calligraphy was personally taught by He Xiaodu, who is known as the "Little Literary Sage of Dongzhou". Every stroke is full of spirit, strong and muscular, and the true meaning flows out like gurgling water, silently refreshing people's hearts. In between, it is extremely edifying.
Horizontal, vertical, strokes, strokes, folds, hooks, dots, strokes and strokes are all practices.
Wenren Zhaoye didn't know these inside stories and was just copying them wholeheartedly. Gradually, he mastered two fonts, one was his own font that he evolved after understanding it, and the other was exactly the same as Luo Tianxing's handwriting.
In fact, even if there were no such benefits in working for Luo Tianxing, he could not refuse her. As for why, the young man himself had never thought about it.
He just felt from the bottom of his heart that if he rejected her or failed to live up to her expectations, he would be a little more uncomfortable than Luo Tianxing.
Thinking of this, Wen Renzhaoye stopped cleaning the dust and put the duster on the shelf. He took a deep breath, clenched his palms, and tried to circulate the spiritual power in his body.
In an instant, huge pain exploded from every corner of his body from the inside out, as if someone had released thousands of sword energy in his body, cutting every inch of his meridians.
Wen Renzhao Ye groaned, holding on to the bookshelf with one hand to prevent herself from falling. His eyes went dark for a while, and finally he couldn't support his body and fell to the ground together with the books on the shelf. The letters fell to the ground one after another, making scattered and clear sounds.
Or not.
From the first time he tried to introduce Qi into his body, this kind of pain has been with him all the time. The slightest introduction of spiritual Qi into his veins will cause the pain of being pierced by sword Qi. He was unwilling to stop there and forced it into his body several times regardless of the pain. He had no choice but to give up until his orifices were bleeding and he passed out.
Wen Renzhaoye knelt on one knee on the ground. The huge pain made him unable to stand. At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of the library door being pushed open.
"Hey, Wenren Zhaoye, are you here?"
Under the testing table, Wen Renzhaoye thought that Luo Tianxing's "tutoring" was a joke, but she didn't expect that she actually made an appointment with him in the evening to meet at the library.
Wenren Zhaoye didn't want her to see him in such a miserable state. He tried to stand up again, but his legs almost lost consciousness due to the severe pain and he fell back again.
Luo Tianxing heard a strange noise as soon as he entered the library. He followed the sound for a few steps and saw this scene.
She was stunned for a moment, "What day is today? With our relationship, why do we need to give such a big gift?"
Saying this, Luo Tianxing carefully walked around the slips on the ground and squatted down in front of him, "I'll help you, can you get up?"
Wenren Zhaoye lowered his eyes and nodded.
When Luo Tianxing helped him up, she leaned over to pick up the letters on the ground. She held a volume in each hand and looked at the bookshelf in confusion, "Where are all these?"
Not complaining, Luo Tianxing didn't know that although she and Wen Renzhao Ye were ranked first and second last in every assessment, the chores of cleaning the library as punishment were all done by Wen Renzhao Ye herself. She usually Never been to this place.
Luo Tianxing was looking at the letter in his hand when his wrist was held by a pair of sharply articulated hands. She was stunned for a moment, but said something irrelevant, "Your hand, when..."
So big?
They were both just ten years old when they met. Luo Tianxing had grown earlier and was taller than Wenren Zhaoye, who seemed malnourished at that time. Unknowingly, not only did the boy grow taller, he was more than a head taller than her, but his hands also grew longer and more handsome, giving him the appearance of an adult man.
She had never noticed it before, but today she felt a little strange at first glance.
Seeing the girl looking at him, Wenren Zhaoye slowly shook his head.
Luo Tianxing didn't understand what he meant, and a string of question marks appeared on his head.
After a while, perhaps because the pain gradually dissipated a lot, Wenren Zhaoye slowly gestured: "I'll do it."
After gesticulating, he took the two volumes of letters away from Luo Tianxing's hand, carefully read the numbers on the letters under the dim light of the library, and put them back to their original positions.
Fire is strictly prohibited in the library, and the only thing allowed to be brought in at night is a small lamp called a "firefly bag". The dim light can only be called better than nothing. Wen Renzhao was squinting his eyes slightly at night, struggling to identify the small characters on the slips, when suddenly a string of soft light fell between the bookshelves. He subconsciously looked up at the source of the light and saw the girl holding a bright pearl.
Luo Tianxing happened to be looking at him, looking thoughtful. The pearly white light made her face look like jade, especially her star-like eyes, which were even brighter at this moment.
Wenren Zhaoye felt as if the invisible ghost in his heart was illuminated by this light, and he quickly looked back at the slip, not daring to look at it any more.
Luo Tianxing also looked away silently. She thought to herself: Wenren Zhaoye seems to be very afraid of me. He doesn't dare to look at me no matter what. He seemed to have fallen to the ground just now, and the fall was not very light. Even after this, he insisted on cleaning up by himself, as if he was really afraid of me...
She actually wanted to take the initiative to help change her image, but she really didn't know how to arrange the slips, so rushing forward would only be unhelpful, so she had no choice but to use the pearl as an enigmatic human-shaped lamppost.
After Wen Renzhaoye returned all the letters to their original places, Luo Tianxing said, "You don't have to do these chores for me anymore in the future."
Wenren Zhaoye showed a slightly strange look, but it didn't look like he was happy. Luo Tianxing added, "Because there are many more important things waiting for you to do. I came to you tonight just to talk about this."
As soon as she finished speaking, the temperature in the pavilion dropped sharply, especially as a layer of frost clung to the bookshelf around them.
On the top shelf of the bookshelf, a stunningly beautiful woman sat in a white dress. Her silver hair was scattered, her feet were bare, her white eyes were looking at Wenren Zhaoye intently, her long eyebrows were slightly frowned.
Luo Tianxing took a deep breath and said extremely seriously: "Wenren Zhaoye, what I'm going to say to you next is very important. If you don't understand anything or have any objections, you can interrupt me at any time. Do you understand? ?”
When the girl appeared to be so serious, Wenren Zhaoye's heart beat a little faster for no apparent reason, and she nodded solemnly.
Luo Tianxing raised his right hand, pointed the other finger at the ring on his middle finger, and said, "This is the ring you picked up in Lianyun Mountain yesterday. This ring is actually a... spiritual weapon, and it has recognized me as its master. . And this fairy’s name is Yue Manyi, and she is a ray of soul attached to the ring. She had great magical powers and extraordinary cultivation before she was born, and she is absolutely trustworthy. "
On the bookshelf, Yue Manyi held her chin with one hand, narrowed her narrow eyes, and looked down at the young man, as if thinking about something.
Wenren Zhaoye also glanced at Yue Manyi. The moment the two looked at each other, he had an inexplicable feeling that this cold and charming woman did not like him.
Luo Tianxing continued: "I made a deal with Fairy Yue. In the following days, she will find out the reason why you can't practice and will do her best to help you practice. Wenren Zhaoye, what do you think?"
Luo Tianxing originally thought that Wen Renzhao Ye should be excited and surprised after hearing the news, but he was far beyond the normal calmness and just looked at the woman on the bookshelf quietly.
Luo Tianxing's heart sank.
What she is most worried about now is whether Wen Renzhaoye will think that she has robbed the opportunity of this ring, and will resent her. After all, he discovered this ring first in the beginning, and it should have belonged to him in the novel, if not Being begged by Luo Tianxing to play with, Wenren Zhaoye may have already embarked on the path of cultivation.
As everyone knows, the reason why Wenren Zhaoye picked up this ring was because she thought Luo Tianxing might like it and brought it back specifically for her. If he went up the mountain by himself, he would never turn back and find the ring, and even if he saw it, he wouldn't be interested.
The main line that had gradually deviated was inadvertently corrected, and returned to the starting point in a winding way.
Everything is determined somewhere.
Luo Tianxing felt inexplicably guilty and added: "There is no way to remove a spiritual weapon that has been recognized as its master. Even if you chop off my fingers, it will be useless."
Wenren Zhaoye seemed a little helpless when he heard this, and looked at her with a half-smile.
The woman in the white dress jumped down from the bookshelf lightly. She floated in the air and asked softly: "His name is Wenren Zhaoye, right?"
Luo Tianxing: "Yeah."
Yue Manyi said: "Wenren Zhaoye, do you have an elder swordsman from Donglianzizhou in your family?"
Wenren Zhaoye looked a little confused and didn't know how to answer.
Not to mention Donglianzizhou, the young man at this time had never even been out of the small town of Yunqi where he was located. He didn't know how vast the world outside the city was, and what he read in the book was limited to Nanmingche, where they were located. There were only a few words mentioned about the various empires in the continent, and other continents were all too far away and unfamiliar to him.
Luo Tianxing acted as a translator and said, "He doesn't know."
Yue Manyi said calmly: "You will know once you try it."
Before she finished speaking, she put her hand on Wenren Zhaoye's forehead and injected a stream of spiritual energy into his body.
Wenren Zhaoye's body trembled, and a golden mark suddenly lit up between his eyebrows. The light quickly extinguished, and a sword energy flew out of his body quickly.
Yue Manyi reacted very quickly and turned her head to dodge. The sword energy still brushed against her pale skin and directly cut off a strand of hair on her cheek. The hair slowly fell down together with the blood beads and turned into fine pieces. The light dispersed.
Luo Tianxing, who was standing behind Yue Manyi, did not react so quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sword energy had already flown between her eyebrows. If it advanced even an inch, it would pierce her head.
It was at this moment that the sword energy dispersed without warning.
Luo Tianxing blinked her eyes, as if she didn't realize that she was on the verge of life and death. She said, "Why are you silent... Hey, your hands!"
Wenren Zhaoye's hands were dripping with blood at some point and were still trembling slightly.
He looked very sad, and looked at Yue Manyi with almost a bit of hatred in his eyes. The corners of his lips moved subconsciously, as if he wanted to say something, but no sound came out.
This was the first time Luo Tianxing had seen Wenren Zhaoye acting so rude. If he could make a sound, she felt that he was probably cursing just now.
"Being able to disperse the sword energy on his own, his qualifications are acceptable."
Yue Manyi turned a blind eye to the young man's cold gaze and said:
"If my guess is correct, there should be an elder sword cultivator in your family with good skills. When you were born, a sword was put into your acupoint to warm it up. This is the sword cultivator's love from Donglianzi Prefecture. If you use the method of raising a sword, this sword will grow up with you, and your soul, flesh and blood will naturally be linked to each other and work together with the owner. When you take it out when you become an adult, this sword will also become your natal sword."
"But there are no elders around you to guide you to channel the sword energy, so the sword energy in the acupuncture points gradually flows into the limbs and veins. If you use your spiritual power a little, the sword energy will be stimulated, and the meridians throughout the body will be cut by the knife."
"I can help you draw out the sword energy in your body, but... this process will be a bit painful." Yue Manyi paused, her tone still calm, "And if you can't persist, you will definitely die."
Luo Tianxing sighed in his heart, knowing that Wenren Zhaoye was going to suffer a lot.
Despite what Yue Manyi said, the original work actually said that more than two hundred sword energies coexisted in Wen Renzhao's night meridian, and the process of eliciting the sword energy was so painful that people could not survive or die, and the most painful thing was to temper people. The will and the endurance of sex, if one of them is missing, it will probably be useless.
"I'll give you one night to consider whether you want to..."
"When do we start?"
Just as Yue Manyi opened her mouth, Wenren Zhaoye interrupted.
Yue Manyi smiled faintly. This was the first time Luo Tianxing saw her smile, but it was slightly mocking. When her eyes were lowered, she looked like a goddess in a mural looking at the world without sadness or joy.
She asked Luo Tianxing: "If this guy dies midway, will our agreement still stand?"
