The news that Marshal Ye’s victory in the Thorn Army at Jianmen Pass was passed back to Luoyang, and finally brought a hint of warmth to the cold autumn rain.

Perhaps before this, many people did not expect that the line of defense that was about to collapse would be kept!

Not only did it defend, but the Thorn Army also gave the prairie people who came to invade head-on, directly annihilated nearly 50,000 troops of its main force!

It is said that the people of Grassland were completely convinced this time and officially sought peace from the Dajin Dynasty. The peace talks envoys sent by the Grassland King were already on the way and were about to arrive in the capital soon.

The streets of Luoyang City are filled with a joyful atmosphere, like a grand festival.

People walked onto the streets in the rain to celebrate each other.

This day was the first time in nearly two hundred years that the grassland people lowered their noble heads and bowed their heads to the Dajin Dynasty.

On this day, Pei Yuanji's death was completely abandoned by people and became the least important thing. There was a topic that people discussed on the streets and alleys, which was the victory of Jianmen Pass.

On this day, Emperor Jin, with Longxin's joy, announced a general amnesty for the world. Nearly 50% of the prisoners were missing in the prisons of the Judgment Department, the Ministry of Justice, and the Bingmaster Department, allowing them to return to their old land.

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Xia Sheng.

At least not yet.

When he learned the news, it was already three days later.

To be honest, Xia Sheng’s life has actually been very good these days.

Although he was locked up in Muyun Cave, he had good food and drinks every day, and he was not worried about food and clothing. He didn't look like a claustrophobic look. To be honest, he was more like resting in the cave and resting in the cave.

The reason why Chunqiu Academy regards claustrophobia in Muyun Cave as a very severe punishment is certainly reasonable, otherwise why does Zhong Weiwei need the Palace of Eternal Life for her to be treated after leaving Muyun Cave?

The reason is that there is a very special formation in Muyun Cave.

Except for the eyes in the cave, the eyes are not visible to the object and the five fingers are not visible. There are ten hours of twelve hours a day, and no sound can be heard in the Muyun Cave.

Absolute darkness, coupled with absolute silence, takes only a few days to drive a normal person crazy.

Even if the practitioner stimulates his own martial arts and spiritual energy, he will not see any light. You can only hear your own voice, breathing, and heartbeat. This kind of mental torture is difficult for even practitioners to bear.

If you are lucky, during the two hours when the daily formation is weakened, the two disciples who are responsible for guarding you may talk to you. Otherwise, the croaking of insects in the mountains, the gentle breeze, and the friction of leaves will be magnified countless times in your ears, making your heart feel as painful as an ants.

In addition, the narrow cave makes people feel uncomfortable staying inside. You can't stand up and your legs can't be straightened when you sleep. The only way is to sit.

Most of the students in the academy are young people in their twenties, and they are not monks as enlightened as Abbot Xinkong. How could they bear the boredom of sitting for several days?

So in the eyes of the students of the academy, Muyun Cave is really an extremely terrifying place.

Of course, all this is not a problem for Xia Sheng.

During the seven days he entered Muyun Cave, he slept well every day and felt at ease, as if this place was not a claustrophobic place at all, but returned to the small wooden house in the backyard of Wanfulou.

Although it is a little simpler, it is a relief.

After waking up every day, Xia Sheng did not waste a slight time. Instead, he practiced swords day after day.

In such a small space, it is naturally impossible to perform sword skills as you wish. Therefore, Xia Sheng chose to practice swords in his heart.

From the Yuehua Sword to the Haoran Sword, from the White Flame Sword to the Changsheng Sword, Xia Sheng practiced a lot of sword techniques, but unfortunately, he could only remember most of the sword techniques. Without the sword score in hand, he really could not understand the essence of it. So after all, Xia Sheng could really integrate it into seven sets of sword techniques.

Of course, it is more than enough for his current realm.

What's more, the seven sword techniques practiced by Xia Sheng are all extraordinary. When each move is placed outside, it may cause vibrations in the entire practice world and cause blood to flow into a river.

I'm afraid he is the only one who can be so luxurious. Even the legendary super sword technique like the White Flame Sword and Haoran Sword are not taken seriously.

Similarly, if someone else comes, even if you put these seven sets of sword techniques in front of him, you will not be able to achieve something if you have practiced it for more than ten or twenty years!

But Xia Sheng is Xia Sheng after all.

This is still without the assistance of Lingquan. Otherwise, his cultivation speed would only be faster!

In addition, Xia Sheng had another thing to do every day, which was to teach Di Jiang to speak.

Dijiang has no mouth, but this does not mean that it cannot make a sound. Although the two of them have the same intentions, even if Dijiang does not understand human language, he only needs a divine thought to make Xia Sheng understand its meaning, but...

Anyway, I am idle, and the communication with Dijiang helps Xia Sheng resist the erosion of this formation on his mood. Why not do it?

As for whether Di Jiang could speak in the end, Xia Sheng was not worried at all.

Even Dean Wei’s spiritual beast can learn it. As a god who once dominated the country, is Di Jiang not as good as that stupid bird?

Except for the ten hours when the Muyun Cave Spirit Array is opened every day, Xia Sheng is also very busy for the remaining two hours, because the new students, including Shen Hui, Zhou Bo, and Mo Yuan, always calculate the time and line up to see him.

Well, or more accurately, ask him to give me some advice on his direction of practice.

Dean Wei is a regular visitor. Although she can't speak, she always brings hot meals to Xia Sheng and some Braille books in the library.

Tang Zi'an only came twice, once to seek the drafting opinions on the spring examination list, and the other time to tell him that Qin Xiaohua indeed stopped all the Pei family as promised.

"Since that's the case, you can always let me go, right?" Xia Sheng looked helpless. Although life in Muyun Cave was leisurely, it was not a big deal to stay like this.

In response, Tang Zi'an's answer was: "Wait a few more days, I believe that the Pei family will never give up. It will not be too late for you to come out again when the news has completely passed. And the dean will come back in a while. Only when he supports you will be completely exposed."

Xia Sheng naturally knew how much trouble he had caused to Chunqiu Academy and how much trouble he had caused to Tang Zi'an. Therefore, he did not complain about Tang Zi'an's cautious actions, but responded to it.

But he never expected that on the second day after Tang Zi'an finished saying this, someone appeared outside the entrance of Muyun's cave, bringing him news of the defeat of the grassland people.

And the person who came was the little girl wrapped in black and barefoot.
