Chapter 22: The Test of the Mountain (Part II)
Because of the fact that they had taken the white eagle to the sea of clouds before, the children had some admiration and curiosity for Jinhuang, a young but lovely little girl, so they all gathered around her to talk to her. Children are already easy to get acquainted with each other, and the Jinhuang people have a sweet mouth, and after the little brother and the little brother shouted a few times, everyone talked and laughed.
Lu Heng followed behind them, looking at the smiling and sweet Jinhuang surrounded by many boys, for some reason his heart was blocked, and he snorted lightly, and then turned his gaze to the unknown wildflower on the side of the road, and no longer looked at her.
Jiang Xinyue, who had been following him, was secretly peeping at Jinhuang with jealous eyes. Hearing his cold snort, he immediately came back to his senses, and then looked at his expression, thinking that he was disgusted with Jinhuang like himself, and he was suddenly happy, and the jealousy in his heart dissipated a lot. It doesn't matter if they revolve around Jinhuang, as long as Lu Heng doesn't like her.
A group of people walked deeper and deeper along the trail.
Suddenly, there was a loud roar in the forest, and the children, who were still laughing and laughing, suddenly panicked and trembled together, and did not dare to go forward.
"Good...... It seems to be an old ...... The cry of a tiger. A boy said in a shaky voice.
"Tiger? I heard my father and mother say that tigers want to eat people. What should I do?" the other boy was so frightened that he almost cried.
"No, no. Jinhuang was quite calm, shaking his head again and again with a white face, "It must be another test given to us by the immortal elders, just like the white eagle just now." ”
Hearing these words was like a reassuring pill in everyone's ears, and they began to respond to her one after another.
"Yes, it must be a test given to us by the Immortal Chief. ”
"Yes, yes, let's not scare ourselves. ”
“……”
Despite this comfort, the children were scared. A bunch of people gathered together and walked slowly. After walking a distance of more than ten meters, they saw a spotted tiger lying in the grass beside the road.
At about the sound of the noise, the tiger turned its head towards them, and the children took a few steps back in fright. However, the tiger did not stand up, but just stared at them with its eyes.
"What should we do? The tiger is lying there, and we can't get by. Someone in the crowd asked.
"Let's see if there's any other way to get around this tiger. "Someone proposed.
Then the crowd went back, intending to find another way.
"Wait a minute. Jinhuang stopped them and pointed at the tiger's hind legs, "It seems to be injured." ”
When the others heard this, they all looked in the direction she was pointing, and sure enough, they saw a trap on the tiger's hind legs, and blood was gurgling from it.
"You want to save it?" Lu Heng, who had not spoken since crossing the sea of clouds, suddenly asked.
Jinhuang glanced at him and nodded.
Lu Heng thought for a while, "I'm with you." ”
"Brother Lu, Xiaojin. Jiang Xinyue stopped the two, "This tiger will eat you, don't go over." ”
When the others saw it, they followed suit.
Jinhuang glanced at the tiger, "But it looks so pitiful." And this tiger is raised by the immortals, and it will definitely not eat people. After speaking, he and Lu Heng walked towards the spotted tiger.
If the second level of the sea of clouds is to test their courage, then this level is to test their thoughts of good and evil.
The Canglang faction created the sect of immortals, and was ordered by the gods to establish the Canglang faction thousands of years ago. For thousands of years, it has been its mission to eliminate demons and protect the six people. As a disciple of Canglang, the first thing is to have a heart of fraternity and benevolence, and you must not be like some monks, who will do whatever it takes to cultivate immortals and snatch magic weapons, frame each other, and harm your fellow disciples. Therefore, every five years of discipleship testing, there must be a test of the disciple's benevolence.
Jin Huang and Lu Heng slowly approached the tiger. The tiger was so obedient that he didn't grin or scare them with a roar.
"We're here to help you. Jinhuang stretched out his hand and carefully touched the tiger's belly.
The tiger seemed to understand her words, and let out a heavy snort from its nose.
Jinhuang was overjoyed, and Lu Heng and Lu Heng broke one side of the trap. However, the clamping force of this trap was very large, and the two of them did not break it for a long time, but it took more than half of their strength.
"Come and help. Lu Heng turned his head and shouted to the others who were watching from a distance.
Originally, Jiang Xinyue was jealous because of Jinhuang's limelight before, and she also wanted to do something to steal her limelight. But he was really afraid of the tiger, and when he heard Lu Heng's call, and saw that the tiger looked docile, he hurriedly walked over and said that he wanted to help.
When the others saw it, they also walked over hesitantly.
A group of children worked together to break the trap and rescue the tiger.
Jinhuang pulled out the handkerchief in his arms and carefully bandaged the tiger's injured leg. The tiger was very spiritual, and roared in a low voice, as if rubbing her little hands with a flattering look.
In the Firmament Hall, the first real people nodded in satisfaction and talked to each other in low voices.
"Yuqing, you go and pick up these children. The head of the sect, Yun Yan Zhenren, ordered a young man waiting outside the hall.
Yuqing gave up her hand, turned around and hurriedly walked out.
In the virtual mirror, the children saved the spotted tiger, and they all felt very happy. Seeing that the tiger was unusually obedient, they couldn't help but reach out and touch it like a brocade phoenix.
The spotted tiger rested on the grass and let them rub their bellies, narrowing their eyes in comfort.
The children were curious, excited, and had a lot of fun.
Suddenly, I heard a whistling overhead, and there was already one more person next to me. The children recognized that the clothes on his body were the robes of the disciples of the Canglang Sect, so they all stood up and stood up in an orderly manner, and saluted him.
Yuqing was very satisfied when she saw that they were all quiet and not noisy, "My name is Yuqing, and the real person in charge ordered me to come and pick you up the mountain." ”
The children immediately became excited, and asked gossipily, "Immortal Chief, have we passed the test?" "Immortal Chief, can we go up the mountain to apprentice?" "......"
Seeing that they began to make noise, Yuqing's still gentle face immediately sank, and he drank coldly to silence them.
The children were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak out anymore, and they stood up in an orderly manner again, their heads bowed, for fear of being scolded again.
Seeing that they were finally quiet, Yuqing began to speak, "Later, I will lead you into the hall to see the real person in charge and the heads of each peak." Don't talk at will! When the real people ask you, you can come forward and reply, understand?"
The children answered yes.
Yuqing nodded, silently reciting the magic formula, only to see that after a white light, a wooden boat had already appeared next to it. The style of this wooden boat is relatively common, unpretentious, and unremarkable. But the sudden appearance of something like this made the children feel very strange, and their eyes were wide open and curious.
Yuqing jumped up slightly, "Come up." ”
About thirty or forty children who passed the test this time, after sitting down on the wooden planks one by one, began to touch each other curiously.
Yuqing swept around the crowd and suddenly said, "Sit down." ”
The children immediately sat upright and stopped looking around.
Jinhuang sat in a seat near the edge of the ship, only to see the ground getting farther and farther away, and the wooden boat began to slowly float into the sky. I only felt the whistling of the wind in my ears, and the wooden boat had rushed into the sky.
