Zhao Ziyu
Soon, Li Ping'an didn't want to ask this question anymore. She lay on the ground, looking at the white clouds in the sky. She wondered why people were so tired. Wasn't she just taking an order and delivering something?
"Time's up, everyone get up." A bold voice was heard, and a burly man with a big beard, three times as big as Li Ping'an, standing in the front urged everyone to get up. This bearded man was an elder of the physical cultivation sect, known as Elder Shi.
Li Pingan began to regret why she said she was a physical cultivator. Damn Jiu Qi, he knew that she was not from this world, but he pretended to be deaf and dumb, so that she could only practice with a group of group cultivators.
Carrying a huge rock under the impact of the waterfall, Li Ping'an felt that she might have been dead for a while, but she had to sigh that if it were not for the foundation laid in the previous worlds, she probably would not even be able to carry this huge rock.
Looking around, I found that the rocks on everyone's heads were bigger than mine.
"Your stone is too small, go change it." Li Ping'an wanted to hit herself twice, and looked around, making Elder Shi stare at her.
"I, I can't do it anymore. This is almost crushing me to death." Looking at the stone that Elder Shi pointed at, Li Ping'an was unwilling to change it even if he was beaten to death.
"How can you enter the barrier like this? Are you going to die?" Li Ping'an felt that Elder Shi might have taken the wrong path back then. If he had learned the Lion's Roar Technique, he would at least be a local overlord now.
Li Pingan saw that Elder Shi was about to change the stone for her personally, so he quickly called out to him, "Elder Shi,"
The big man stopped and looked at Li Ping'an.
"Elder Shi, when will we enter the barrier?" Li Ping'an asked in a low voice.
"You don't even know this?" Elder Shi frowned. What kind of person was this sent by Qiu Qi? He had no martial arts ability, looked weak, and knew nothing. How could he enter the barrier?
"Five days later, when everyone is gathered, we will enter the barrier." After saying that, he looked at Li Ping'an's trembling legs and said, "Stand up straight, why are your legs shaking?" This slap almost took Li Ping'an's life.
At the end of the afternoon, Li Ping'an's legs were shaking so much that he couldn't stand up straight. He could only walk by holding on to a wall or a tree. If there was no wall or tree or people around, Li Ping'an could only walk by moving his legs with his hands.
After finally reaching the gate of the courtyard, he saw a person in light green clothes lying on the ground from afar. Li Ping'an walked over and fell down beside her with a plop.
"I'm so tired," they both said in unison.
"I controlled Caicai to kill a monster in one afternoon at the Beast Taming Peak." Zhao Jingyan wanted to cry as he said this. The little mantis was almost stepped on to death when it first came on the field. It took a lot of effort for them to kill one after they cooperated with each other.
"As a result, Elder Lin said that this monster is still a cub. In my current condition, I won't survive for more than an incense stick of time if I go in." After saying this, Zhao Jingyan wanted to cry. She was in so much pain.
Li Pingan touched Zhao Jingyan's head and comforted her. "I stood under the waterfall for an entire afternoon, holding up a huge rock. The bearded man said I didn't have enough physical strength and that going in would be like dying."
For a moment, the two of them didn't know who was more miserable, and they hugged each other and cried bitterly.
"By the way, where is Ziyu?" Li Ping'an remembered that Zhao Jingyan and her sister went to the Beast Taming Peak together.
Zhao Jingyan wiped the non-existent tears from his face, "Zi Yu went there not long ago and killed a monster, and then was taken away."
"Didn't you ask her where she went?"
"She said it, but I forgot." It's not Zhao Jingyan's fault. The monster that was easily dealt with by Zhao Ziyu seemed to have become a spirit in her hands.
"I found out that we will enter the barrier in five days." Li Ping'an suddenly thought of the information he had asked today.
"Ping'an, we may be separated in three days." Zhao Jingyan buried his head in his shoulders and spoke in a muffled voice.
"Why?" Li Ping'an moved closer to Zhao Jingyan and wanted to pull her.
"Because we want to go back to the East China Sea and go down through the crack on the seabed." Zhao Ziyu's voice came from behind.
Li Ping'an looked over. Zhao Ziyu looked much worse off than the other two. Her clothes were covered in scratches and covered in dust and leaves, but her eyes were sparkling.
"A crack in the seafloor?"
"The barrier of the East China Sea was originally set up by the ancestor of the Zhao family. With the Zhao family present, it is easier to enter. If the barrier needs to be reinforced, we will also be needed." Zhao Jingyan added.
Li Pingan felt something was not right after hearing this. If this happened in a novel, he would probably be sacrificed.
"Well, don't you think this is a bit..."
"It's okay, something similar has happened before," Zhao Ziyu heard Li Ping'an's subtext, and then looked at Zhao Jingyan who was lying on the ground and refused to get up.
"She's afraid that she'll be a drag if she goes in."
As she spoke, Zhao Ziyu pushed open the door and was about to help Zhao Jingyan, but Zhao Jingyan pushed her away, "I can walk by myself." Then she went in angrily.
Zhao Ziyu's hand stopped in mid-air, and Li Pingan took over, "Please help me."
It was not to avoid embarrassment for Zhao Ziyu, but because Li Pingan really couldn't get up.
"She's angry." Li Ping'an said in a low voice.
"Well, the gap between reality and ideal is too big. She can't accept it for a while and is angry with herself. She will be fine after a while." Although Zhao Jingyan is often silly, he will suddenly get angry with himself like this occasionally. Zhao Ziyu has become accustomed to it.
Li Ping'an nodded. Although it was immoral to say so, she still saw four words in Zhao Jingyan: incompetence and rage.
When the two entered the room, they saw Zhao Jingyan chasing the two chickens, holding a kitchen knife in his hand with a ferocious look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Li Ping'an thought Zhao Jingyan was venting his anger.
"These two damn chickens shit on the bed." Hearing this, Li Ping'an looked at the two chickens and knew they deserved a lesson.
"It's okay, you can sleep with me at night." Zhao Ziyu comforted.
Zhao Jingyan stopped when he heard that, holding a knife in one hand and pointing at the doors of the three rooms with the other. The doors of the three rooms were all open.
"They pooped on the beds in all three rooms."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziyu pulled out the sword he had found from somewhere behind his back. Li Pingan originally wanted to sit on the stone bench in the yard to rest, but now he felt that his legs were full of strength again, and he stood up straight in an instant.
"We're having roast chicken tonight." He said lightly.
Suddenly, the yard was in chaos. The sword energy swung by Zhao Ziyu broke all the trees in the yard. This made Zhao Jingyan and Li Pingan stop. No, everyone was originally at the same level, how come you suddenly made such a breakthrough?
Now, the chickens stopped chasing, and the three of them held a small meeting in the yard. "Tzuyu, how come you are so powerful? Where did you get your sword?"
Seeing that she could no longer hide the truth, Zhao Ziyu lowered her head and bowed to Zhao Jingyan first, "Sister, I'm sorry, I have concealed something from you."
"Actually, more than a year ago, someone came to me and said they wanted to teach me swordsmanship, but I couldn't tell anyone."
At this point, Zhao Ziyu looked up at Zhao Jingyan, as if observing her emotional state, "I didn't agree at first, and I want to tell you."
"But the old man said that if I didn't agree or if I told anyone about this, he would kill us both."
Zhao Ziyu was in her early teens at the time. Although she had been precocious and intelligent since childhood, she had just experienced the breakdown of her family and had finally settled down. She did not want to destroy this hard-earned stability, so she had no choice but to agree.
Later, Zhao Ziyu discovered that although the old man looked fierce, his swordsmanship was extremely powerful, so he slowly began to learn from him attentively.
"So, when you disappeared every now and then, weren't you dating?" Zhao Jingyan suddenly asked with a frown, "I thought you were secretly dating."
Zhao Ziyu was speechless, "Sister, I was only ten years old at that time."
"Yes, that's why I was afraid that you were cheated, so I followed you secretly. However, I always lost you halfway." Zhao Jingyan was not a fool. Zhao Ziyu disappeared for a long time at any time, so she would definitely notice.
"Later, I saw that you were not seriously injured, so I stopped following you." He would always lose you anyway, and after losing you, he would be scolded by the shopkeeper for abandoning his post without permission.
"Half a year ago, you stopped going out. I thought you were heartbroken because you were always playing with a wooden sword by the river." It was because of this that Zhao Jingyan came up with the idea of sending Zhao Ziyu to become an apprentice.
Zhao Ziyu wanted to speak countless times, but she didn't know how to explain because Zhao Jingyan's train of thought was a little confusing to her.
"Half a year ago, my master left because of something going on in the sect. He left behind a sword manual for me to practice." Zhao Ziyu knew that Zhao Jingyan was watching from the side and was waiting for her to ask, but there was no follow-up. It turned out that this was the reason.
"That's not good of you. We encountered so many difficulties along the way, why didn't you help?" Zhao Jingyan said.
Zhao Ziyu smiled wryly and touched the sword on the table, "Sister, do you want me to swing the sword with a tree branch?" It's not that it can't be done, but she can't do it. She didn't even have a wooden sword at that time.
"Your sword looks very powerful." Li Ping'an looked at the sword for a long time, touched it tentatively, and found that it was vibrating, bringing with it a chill.
When Zhao Ziyu mentioned this sword, his eyes lit up. "This was given to me by my master. He is an elder of the Sword Sect, and his surname is Li."
"Okay, now we know everything we need to know. Come on, Ziyu, take aim and send these two chickens to heaven." Zhao Jingyan patted Zhao Ziyu's shoulder and pointed at the two chickens still showing off their power in the yard.
Zhao Ziyu nodded, raised his sword and swung it at the two chickens. The sword energy went towards the two chickens. Zhao Jingyan and Li Pingan both grinned as they watched. The roasted chickens were waving to them.
But in the end, the three of them still didn't get to eat the roast chicken they had been craving for.
