The water in the mountains was clean, it was natural and unpolluted As the location of the pond was surrounded by trees, very little sunlight could reach it, so the teround ones The four of the water for a while, and soon their anger and hotheadedness were all gone; it was co, in no tith
Li Sui stared at the reflection of his scars on the rippling water They were once his deepest, darkest secrets, but now, he had made his peace with those memories; they were now merely a part of his life experiences Li Sui couldn't rehtmares had stopped, but ever since the fa appeared, Li Sui's dreaain
In the ancient tie illnesses and curses, some would also use it to flee from their fate Li Sui alondered if perhaps the one who bestowed him with a new name also blessed hi wang Wei, are the vines usable?”
wang Wei swarabbed one and pulled on it, ”Should be fine, but there are spikes on it”
”Who is the lightest? Test the vines out first”
After SiMa JingRong finished the sentence, SiMa Yan as beside hilanced at SiMa JingRong with a not-so-pleased face, but he still swarabbed a piece of vine, and encircling the vine on his ar the vine as support
SiMa Yan was thin and sliile—it was as if he were a veteran cli his head to exa on dry land, the waterfall didn't seeot closer, he noticed that the rocks were all covered in h, it would be impossible to even set foot on the rocks Luckily, beneath the vines and rocks there was a pond, so even if they fell, it wouldn't cause any serious da Wei stared at SiMa Yan with a hanging heart, though he wasn't worried that SiMa Yan would fall As these rocks were under constant stress froht be loose, it looked like they could fall down anytis were strong as well; very quickly, he reached the top part of the rocks The higher he got, the heavier the water became, so his vision was also hindered The soaked shi+rt stuck to his skin, Li Sui looked up and noticed that his lower legs were tre? Don't push yourself, if you can't, then come back down” Li Sui swa happened
SiMa Yan rubbed the water on his face away; he said so water He wrapped his arht leg, he climbed up another meter or so, he was al as quiet all this time suddenly screamed, his voice unexpectedly tinted orry, ”Rocks! Quick! Let go!”
Right after the warning, a piece of loosened rock fell down along with the water, it was dropping directly towards SiMa Yan's head
At the sarip on the vine, then placed his feet on a piece of rock, pushi+ng himself outwards He landed in the pond bellow on his back
A circle of water splashed up Li Sui quickly swah……” SiMa Yan was choking on the water, his face red as he coughed, lying on Li Sui
”Are you okay?” wang Wei went over as well
SiMa Yan was coughing so much that he couldn't even speak, so he just waved his hand to shoas fine
”Let's get out of the water first” Li Sui said in concern
He was soaked in water; his T-shi+rt and shorts were all wet Perhaps he was shocked, his face was pale, he was a bit like a wet baby bird, and it was quite gut-wrenching That hen Li Sui noticed, SiMa Yan was seriously thin, perhaps even lighter than e
”I was al, he said, feeling dejected
”Safety first,” Li Sui patted his shoulder
”Don't try to steal the li said as he handed SiMa Yan a dry change of clothes
SiMa Yan didn't take the clothes, he laughed coldly, ”You are quite disappointed that the rock didn't injuredid not refute this tiuilt That was unexpected; Li Sui and wang Wei stared at each other, both had shock written all over their faces It sees' relationshi+p was not as rocky as they had originally thought
”I took a peep before I jumped down” SiMa Yan dried his face, then he stood up Pointing at the waterfall, he said, ”Up there is a pool, beside it are soh”
When SiMa Yan put it like that, it reround above would collect water very easily The soil would subsequently be sticky, could waterrow in soil like that?
”fuck That trainer is toying with us?”
Li Sui had a better grasp of the situation now, that cal down, ”It h he was never in the army, he kne nored the rules so blatantly, then showed absolutely no remorse, would naturally be punished as an exa reached the fro training SiMa Yan sank his feet into the water, ”We can skip the trainings, that's even better Who wants to be there?”
Losing Lu Shang's face the first day here, Li Sui didn't feel good about that, the only one who could possibly help hi Wei Yet, his only hope was sitting by the water, not budging, with eyes shut—he was asleep again
”Since we can't find it anyway, o back and report to the trainer If he wants to punish us, then there's no escape” Li Sui tried persuading the quit Back at home, he was theout at the trainer was already the best he could do, now you want hio receive punishment obediently? That was absolutely out of the question
”I' to do about it”
SiMa Yan was quiet, but on his face, you could see that he was unwilling as well Li Sui knew in his heart that these tere rich kids, his words wouldn't be enough to change theave up Now, he was even , no matter the situation, that person's words seemed to have an absolute effect on others, it was as if his leadershi+p skills were innate and that no one will ever doubt his decisions
They played with the water leisurely, looking at the shadows under the sun turn fro they fooled around, splashi+ng water at each other, but as tily They were out of options, they were on an eth They were all growing le ht the meals in the cafeteria tasted horrible, so he didn't evento stay in the water for the whole day? If we don't go back, on'tWei said
Due to his experiences in earlier years, Li Sui was already quite well-versed in the starving departinable what state pa and small SiMas were in
When they first arrived at the caht snacks, but his father soht wind of it The next day, he ordered the vice-captain to confiscate everything, he even reain At this critical moment, they were reminded how the whole drawer of cup noodles, chocolates, and biscuits were forever out of their reach SiMa JingRong's face turned gri us, we have to coet past hi sun at a distant, he stood up and batted away the dust on his trousers, ”You guys go back to the doro take the punish Wei irass between his lips, SiMa JingRong sighed, ”Li Sui You're great in every aspect, but you're too obedient”
Li Sui didn't knohat to reply with SiMa JingRong crawled up froround for a while Scratching up a sot it!”
”What is that?” wang Wei asked
”Water is smaller than a bean, how do you know it's a water smiled proudly, ”Who say this isn't a watero scam people, don't pull us down” SiMa Yan didn't take hiled in front of the in his hands, ”Don't worry Your brother will lead you to food and spice”
