The sky and water

Hearing this, Tian Cheng unconsciously flashed fear in his eyes.It seems that this man, he is very scared.

He sat up, lowered his head slightly, and said slowly, "Qing Jiao."

Qingjiao?I have never heard of such a person in the Demon Cult!By the way, Chi Yuan once mentioned this person, it seems that he is not a good person.

Tian Cheng didn't speak for a while, but when he mentioned this name, his mind was filled with painful memories.During his days on Dark Night Island, the Heart Piercing Ghost Mask only came once in a while to punish him, but Qing Jiao was the owner of Dark Night Island and the trainer of the children.

He also seemed to hate Tian Cheng very much, especially after Qinglan's death, he seemed to have a deep hatred for him. Although he saw that he was powerful and suitable for using a stick, he tried his best to teach him how to use a stick, but the process of teaching him made Tian Cheng It hurts so much.

It can be said that at that time, he was covered with cuts and bruises every day, and most of the wounds were thanks to him.It was better at the beginning, more than 40 children were training together, his attention was scattered, then only Tian Cheng and Chi Yuan were left, and then only Tian Cheng was left, and he made him crawl almost every day. Can't get up.

In fact, Tian Cheng had a high level of comprehension and learned quickly, but Qing Jiao always felt that it was not enough, or in other words, he was the same as Piercing Ghost Mask, he just wanted him to hurt.During the training, as long as Tian Cheng's movements were slightly wrong, or when he was too tired to get up, he raised his hand and whipped the whip. Sometimes the whip was interrupted, or he felt that the whip was not enjoyable, he would change it to another Other things, such as burning his wound with a burning stick at one end, beating his legs with a wooden plank full of nails, and splashing sea water on him to continue beating until Tian Cheng lost consciousness due to pain and weakness.Anyway, Dark Night Island is an island, and some of it is sea water.

Sometimes, he would punish Tiancheng to practice the stick technique all night without rest, and he would ask several people to hold whips and prepare a tank of sea water to watch him.At this time, Tian Cheng's body was often covered with scars, every move he made, the wounds would open and his body would be covered in blood, but they would not let him go because of this, turning a blind eye to his injuries, and only asked him to complete the standard movements, otherwise, he would be beaten.

If you are knocked out, you will be splashed with salt water. When you wake up, you will continue to practice. If you do not practice well, you will be beaten again.

He couldn't make it to dawn every time, and would pass out in the middle of each time, and the sea water would not wake him up. However, the punishment would not end there, it would only continue after he woke up.

When he was in a coma, Qingjiao would not let him go, often hanging him up, heavy objects fell from his feet, and salt was sprinkled on the wound. It was too severe to pass out, so in the haze, he felt blackness in front of his eyes, and felt the pain in his whole body, which was about to tear his body to pieces.

Also, Heart Piercing Ghost Face never punished him to fast, but this was not the case with Qing Jiao, he often ordered him to only drink water and not eat for a few days, but he had to complete the rigorous training content as usual.With such a large amount of activity and bleeding every day, Tian Cheng couldn't bear it many times and passed out. What was waiting for him was the sea water coming all around again.

I clearly remember how it felt when the cold and salty sea water was splashed down on the head and face and soaked into the wound on a severe cold winter night, when I was so hungry that I had gastrointestinal cramps and cramps, and when I was so cold that my whole body couldn't stop shaking.

In fact, curling up alone in the corner of the death cell, shivering from the cold and pain, was the best way for Tian Cheng to spend the night. At least, no one would beat him before dawn.

The memory of Dark Night Island is the severe cold and heat, severe pain, extreme fatigue and unbearable hunger, and the endless fear.

This ability is really hard to come by.

Tian Cheng frowned lightly, between the thin and deep eyebrows, there was an unknowing amount of heaviness.

Cheng Shanshui's heart ached when he saw it, he patted him on the back lightly, and said: "Don't think about it, it's all over." Seeing that his face gradually eased, he opened his mouth and continued to ask: "Tian Cheng, what is Qingjiao like?" Where is he? How is his martial arts?"

Looking at the dancing candles on the table, Tian Cheng felt the gentle strength of Cheng Shanshui stroking his back, his expression seemed to relax a little, and he continued: "He is very good at martial arts, and he has a very high attainment in stick techniques. It can be said that apart from the leader, No one is his opponent, he is the same as the leader, he has many sexes, few people know his true face, but some people on Dark Night Island say that his true face is an old man with white beard and hair."

Tian Cheng paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, and quickly said: "By the way, there is something very strange. We don't know what kind of exercises Qing Jiao is practicing, but his internal strength seems to be gradually weakening over the years , It feels a bit like it was caused by internal force backlash, and the specifics are not very clear."

Old man, internal force backlash?Cheng Shanshui was also at a loss, thinking about it, but couldn't figure out what was going on. It seemed that the clues in his hand were not enough.

However, as soon as Tian Cheng mentioned this person, he became afraid, which meant that this person had hurt him, and the injury was very deep. If he met him in the future, he would definitely beat him up for Tian Cheng!

Yes, turn him into a eunuch!Even though he is old, he is still a man, so he would be very depressed if he suddenly disappeared there, right?In other words, it's a pity that Chi Yuan was not turned into a eunuch last time!

"I don't want to go to sleep." Cheng Shanshui said, got out of bed, and blew out the candles on the table.Tian Cheng thought that he was thinking about serious issues about the Demon Sect's Si Xuanye, but before he knew it, he had long thought wrongly.Just thinking about how to turn people into eunuchs.

It was already late at night, and soon it would be dawn. Cheng Shanshui didn't sleep until this time. He was so sleepy that he finally stopped insomnia, turned over, and fell asleep beautifully.However, Tian Cheng made him work up his spirits. Looking at the sky, it seemed that it was time to get up soon, so he didn't go back to sleep. He leaned against the bed and looked at the rosy white baby face.

In fact, Cheng Shanshui is not fat, but he has this face shape, no matter how thin he is, there are two lumps of flesh on his face, which is one of the reasons why he looks much younger than his actual age.Looking at his face, Tian Cheng couldn't help stretching out a finger, and poked at the most bulging place. A small piece of flesh on that face was immediately dented, but it was extremely elastic as the finger was retracted. It automatically bounced back, which is really cute.

It felt very good, as soft as freshly picked cotton, Tian Cheng couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and the unbearable memories of the past were dimmed because of this smile.

Because he has never owned it, he knows how to cherish it. It is precisely because he has such a painful past that Tian Cheng knows more clearly how beautiful life is now.

The time with him is the only happiness in his life.

Cheng Shanshui didn't notice it at all, and was still sleeping soundly. In his sleep, he stretched out a hand, grabbed Tian Cheng's skirt, and rubbed it on his face.

If you don't wake up like this, how vigilant are martial arts practitioners?The famous Tongyan Shura actually has such a side!

Thinking about it, Tian Cheng really wanted to poke his face a few more times, but was afraid that he would wake him up. After all, Cheng Shanshui often suffered from insomnia, and it was rare for him to sleep soundly like this.

At daybreak, the two changed their outfits again, bought two horses, and headed all the way to Qingshi County.

Cheng Shanshui casually made up a pseudonym for himself, He Si, and said that he was the only son of the shopkeeper of the tea shop in Shen'an City. Because he was forced by his father to learn how to do business all day long, he couldn't pursue his dream of becoming a famous painter, so he left in anger. When I ran away from home, I thought of Qingshi County, a place close to the desert, and painted thousands of miles of yellow sand, the solitary smoke and sunset in the desert, and the nomadic tribes that lived by water and grass.

"No one can stop my dream!" When he said these words in a serious manner, holding a brush in his hand, he really looked like an idiot who only knew how to draw. Tian Cheng couldn't help it, and almost laughed.

If he hadn't been born in the Jianghu school and got involved in those grievances and grievances early, maybe, he would really become a painter, right?If he had been born in a scholarly family, with his intelligence, he might have passed the imperial examination and become an official of the dynasty.No, no, with his unrestrained temperament, he is not suitable for studying hard at all. He is suitable for being a clever but mischievous little boy who is spoiled by his father. People grit their teeth with hatred, and when they are smart, people love him so much that they can't wait to hold him in the palm of their hands.

Looking at him, Tian Cheng couldn't help thinking, hoping that these things would be settled quickly, so that he could go back to the old days, wandering around Ronghua Street all day, so carefree.

"Tian Cheng, remember, your name is Cheng Mo, and you are my follower." Cheng Shanshui's hearty voice interrupted his thoughts, Tian Cheng nodded to show that he remembered.

He named Tian Cheng Cheng Mo, and said that he was a servant his father had hired for him, he knew how to fight, and since he was powerless, taking him out would keep him safe all the way.

In fact, he chose this name out of selfishness. If he followed his surname, he would only belong to him in the future!

This journey is safe, because Qingshi County is located in a remote place, people from the rivers and lakes seldom set foot in it, and the roads they took are all remote, and no one knows their destination, Yin Surou thought they were going back to Drinking Sword Pavilion Looking for the protection of Pavilion Master Pan, he deployed a lot of troops on the only way to Shen'an City, but he didn't know that he was looking in the wrong direction.

Therefore, the two of them entered Qingshi County leisurely and contentedly all the way.

Qingshi County is a border town, not as prosperous as Shen'an City and Ruifeng Town, with a small population, and the streets are deserted, and even the sellers don't shout, looking decadent.

According to Haruno, this place has been plagued by sand bandits, and the government has been unable to do so. Many people have migrated to the interior. If this continues, sooner or later, this place will become a deserted place.

Cheng Shanshui stood on the side of the desolate street and watched for a while, and found that all the younger and a little bit more beautiful women here were dressed in unkempt clothes. It wasn't because they didn't like cleanliness, it was probably because the Shaliang people had a tendency to rob civilian women , they can only do this in order to protect themselves.

The old man Liu Yuanzhang chose such a place to hide, what exactly is he going to do?Really, there is not even a seller of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes!

Cheng Shanshui walked all the way, pouted all the way, and couldn't find something he liked, which was very distressing.

The more distressing thing is still to come. Although he has already dressed himself and Tian Cheng inconspicuously, and even patted some dirt on his face to make a dusty look, he still can't stop it. enthusiasm.

Because there are very few outsiders in this place, and occasionally there are a few, which will attract many people to stop and watch. There are not many people here. At first, a few passers-by looked sideways. Later, when a few beautifully dressed women saw them, they went Come forward and surround them.

Cheng Shanshui was very puzzled. The women I saw before tried to dress themselves up as badly as possible. These few are good. They dress up as they want to seduce people. They all wear colorful flowers, not to mention wearing gold and silver, but also wearing full hair. The worthless pearls and emeralds made the head and body all colorful, quite vulgar.

Cheng Shanshui is no stranger to this kind of woman, most of the women in the brothel are like this, but compared with these women, the taste of Yanyulou is really good!He suddenly thought of something, looked up and saw a pink plaque: Firework Building.

It is highly suspected that this is a branch of Yanyulou.

No, no, these women are so flamboyant, aren't they afraid of being robbed?They dare to do this, even if no one dares to snatch them, and they don't look like they have special skills, then there is another possibility, someone is protecting them!

Who can protect them from Shaliang people?Shaliang people have no fixed place to live, and they are not afraid of reprisals. Could it be that the people who protect them are with the Shaliang people at all, so they can make them obey!

However, the scene in front of him made Cheng Shanshui unable to think about it any longer, because a group of women surrounded Tian Cheng, all of them infatuated, and said coquettishly: "Little brother, come and sit in my fireworks building, you don't need money! "

"Come with me, I'll get you some water to wash your face, without dust, it will definitely look better!"

"Young master, this place is full of dangers. Be careful! If you really have nowhere to go, you can come to my fireworks building to take refuge. We sisters can keep you safe for a while!"

Tian Cheng: "..."

Cheng Shanshui finally realized Peng Peng's troubles, while standing in front of Tian Cheng to fend off all the women, he said depressedly: "Why are you so enthusiastic about him? Could it be that I'm really ugly!"

In fact, he was wrong, it wasn't that he was ugly, but that he was too small, these women regarded him as an innocent child and didn't want to talk to him at all.

"Hey, you guys are enough! Tian Cheng, let's go! I just said, places like brothels are scary!" Cheng Shanshui dragged Tian Cheng, really wanting to jump onto the roof, but he didn't want to reveal that he knew martial arts, so he could only go from here Among the crowd of nympho girls, they struggled to squeeze out.

This ghost place, the farther away the better!

These women are in a border town, unlike Yanyulou which is located in the bustling capital city, where you don't see many people in a day, and there are not many good-looking ones, as Tian Cheng is so handsome, you really don't see a single one in a year Of course, they didn't want to let them go easily, but they were women after all, with weak strength, unable to withstand the mountains and rivers, so they could only look at them with disappointment and leave step by step.

Seeing that Cheng Shanshui was about to squeeze out of the crowd, he was happy in his heart, but suddenly he heard a soft call: "Master, your eyes..."

Eye?Cheng Shanshui was taken aback, then turned his head and looked at Tian Cheng's deep dark green eyes.
