Chapter 51: Tianji Mountain
When this song was finished, there was a dead silence around them, and everyone was still unsatisfied. Looking at the woman in the pink skirt, how could there be any contempt and disrespect? only admiration and sighing.
The corners of Ge Ye's two elders also twitched, and they were speechless for a while. After being slapped in the face twice in a row, they were already dizzy and overwhelmed.
At a certain moment, the crowd unanimously launched a thunderous applause, shaking the heavens and the earth. The sound reverberated through the valley, creating countless echoes.
The first thing Xuanniao did when she stood up was not to prove it to those who didn't believe her, nor to ask the two elders about what she meant if she had passed.
Instead, he turned to look at Qi Qi first, his autumn eyes were moisturized, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his smile was like a flower.
It's not without the intention of inviting credit.
Qi Qi smiled and gave her a thumbs up, "It's amazing!"
"Is the song good?" asked Xuanniao with a smile.
"That's good," Qi Qi nodded and smiled.
"That's good. โ
"Ahem," at this time, the two elders on the stone platform spoke up. Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at the two of them.
"It's a good play, it's passed," Ge Ye said.
There was a hint of joy in Xuanniao's eyes, and he gave a blessing to the two elders, and said, "Thank you two elders, you are willing to give me this opportunity." โ
"No, no, no, it's not us who you should thank," the two elders said with a quick wave of their hands.
Hearing this, Xuan Niao smiled slightly, she knew what the two elders meant, so she turned to look at Qi Qi, "Qi Qi, thank you." โ
Qi Qi said, "If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have delayed." Don't thank me. โ
Today's re-examination and assessment is over. Xuanniao and the others who passed the test officially became disciples of the Qin Sect, and those who regretted not being able to pass the test went down the mountain on the same day.
A wooden house in the mountains.
"Xuanniao, now that you have successfully become a disciple of the Qin Sect, now, I can leave with confidence," outside the door, Qi Qi had already packed his luggage and said.
Xuanniao asked in amazement, "This... Is it so fast?"
"What's not fast or slow?" Qi Qi said with a smile, "Everything that needs to be done has been done, it's time to go." Since that day, I killed the son of Nanxun's royal family, and Nanxun can no longer tolerate the two of us. Now I have brought you to a new place to stay, where you can concentrate on your favorite piano path, and there are many brothers and sisters to communicate, where the birds and flowers are fragrant, and the scenery is beautiful all year round, it is an excellent place to live. I don't have any reason to stay. โ
Xuanniao just lowered her head, did not reply to him, did not look at him, on her body, there was a faint black frustration rising, gradually enveloping her.
"I'm very happy to know you, and after so many days together, I can say responsibly that you are a good girl. You are kind and gentle, and you are one of the best women I have ever seen. It may be a bit inappropriate to express my heart so bluntly, but these are my heartfelt words, and there is absolutely no falsehood. โ
Qi Qi said this, not noticing that the Xuanniao shoulders in front of her were faintly trembling, and crystal water droplets kept falling on the grass below her.
"Alright. Xuanniao, do you have anything to tell me?" Qi Qi asked.
Then he was stunned for a moment, only to find that Xuanniao was drooping his head, and he didn't even seem to hear what he had just said.
"Xuanniao?" he couldn't help but call again.
After a while, when he wanted to call a third time, Xuanniao had already raised his head, looked at him and said, "I'm fine." โ
"You... Is there anything you want to say?" Qi Qi asked again.
"No," Xuanniao smiled and shook his head.
But in my heart I was saying.
Yes, of course I do. It's just that I can't say a word of these thousand words, because you can't understand it, and it's useless if you do.
Because you are not mine.
Qi Qi looked at Xuanniao for another moment, and saw that she really didn't seem to have anything to say, so he said, "Since that's the case, take care, I'll go." โ
Xuanniao's nose twitched, but he still resisted the sourness and said, "Well, goodbye." โ
"Take care!
Qi Qi hugged his fists, the words fell, no longer looked at Xuanniao, turned around, and flew away.
His light skills were excellent, so he disappeared from Xuanniao's sight with just a fly.
But he didn't know that it was such a simple back, but it made this woman unforgettable for the rest of her life.
Xuanniao looked at the place where Qi Qi disappeared, and was distracted for a long time, and then sobbed softly, and the more he cried, the more fierce he became.
"Woo, Qi Qi, I can't bear you, I really can't bear you. โ
Crying, he gradually squatted down, clasped his knees with his hands, and buried his head in his knees.
"It only takes that moment for you to break into my heart, but it takes a lifetime to forget you and me, how can you be so excessive. โ
"It took you and me so many days to get here, but now you're away from me..."
"But it's just a light effort. โ
"Since ancient times, scholars have been the most affectionate, they are all fake, and swordsmen are also very affectionate. โ
The woman kept crying, nothing earth-shattering, nothing unforgettable.
It's very simple to cry.
It's just the simplest cry.
At this time, it is still daytime, the wind and the sun are beautiful, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and occasionally the flying cranes sweep through the valley, and the cry is far away.
However, here and there.
But there is a sadness that cannot be dispersed.
ยทยทยทยทยทยท
Tien Xuan Province borders Jiangnan Province and is located in the western part of Jiangnan Province. Like Jiangnan Province, you can reach Zhongchao Province by heading north. It is the southwest of Datang.
And in the extreme southwest of Tianxuan Province, there is such a lofty mountain.
This mountain is towering into the clouds, bottomless, steep and rugged, and is the first of the seven famous mountains of the Tang Dynasty - Tianji Mountain.
And legend has it that on the top of the mountain, there is an organization called Tianji Pavilion, which is extremely mysterious.
There are often some lists called Tianji List circulating in the rivers and lakes, which include many martial arts masters, national beauties, and natural treasures that ordinary people don't know, and rank them.
Because the above rankings have a certain credibility, and many people do follow the clues on these lists to find the people and things on the list.
Gradually, everyone believed that there was such an organization called Tianji Pavilion, and the Tianji List gradually became convincing.
But whether Tianji Pavilion exists or not has been shrouded in a vague veil, and no one knows.
But this did not affect the countless people who flocked to it, squeezing their heads to see this legendary Tianji Pavilion, if they could become their Excellency's disciples, it would be better.
Therefore, there are people who come here all the year round to climb this Tianji Mountain, wanting to climb to the top and see the legendary Tianji Pavilion.
Right now, halfway up the mountain, there are a few climbers.
There were three men and one woman. They don't go together, they go their separate ways. He carries the best mountaineering equipment, iron hands and claws. Able to chisel through solid stone and nail the body firmly to the almost straight mountain wall.
Tianji Mountain is 333 zhang high, straight into the sky, unclimbable.
If you want to climb this mountain, you need a strong body, extraordinary perseverance, tenacity and determination, and good equipment.
Indispensable.
And if there is one thing missing, it is the end of falling off the cliff and dying, and the bones are broken.
At present, the four people on the mountainside are all carrying more than two pairs of mountaineering equipment, and by now, almost all of them have been used to pieces, and only one pair remains.
Looking at the last and broken iron claws, the three men all smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but look at the abyss under their eyes, and then at the bottomless mountain wall above their heads, and felt a sense of despair in their hearts.
The three of them saw that the woman's eyes were still resolute and she climbed up, not afraid that the iron claws in her hands were already broken, and they might be completely damaged and unusable at any moment, and what was waiting for her at that time was the bad news of falling off the cliff.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly, but they didn't expect that in the end, they couldn't even compare to a woman, so they gritted their teeth and continued to climb.
It's all halfway up the mountain, so what?
However, after a few steps, one of them wailed, "No, no, no, no, too high! I really can't stand it! I want to go down! I want to go down!"
The other two men couldn't help but look at him, but the woman was still climbing up on her own, oblivious to everything outside the world.
As he spoke, the man began to climb down, but there were paw prints from his own arrivals and those left by his predecessors, so the descent went smoothly. But looking down, you will inevitably catch a glimpse of the black abyss, like a giant beast opening its bloody mouth to him, and you can't help but feel creepy.
However, there is no choice but to bite the bullet.
Because if he doesn't, he will definitely die, and his iron claws will no longer be able to support him to cut through the mountain wall a few more times. At that time, without iron claws, it would be impossible to climb the steep mountain wall with bare hands, and there would be only death.
And down, there is still a glimmer of life.
If you insist on hating, you only hate that you shouldn't have a hot head at that time, and you want to move this idea of climbing the first mountain in the world.
The two men saw that the man had begun to slowly descend the mountain, and after a little hesitation, they decided to continue climbing.
It's all at this time, if you give up, won't you give up all your efforts?
Looking at the women who have unconsciously led them, none of them have given up, and they are ahead of them, so what reason do they have to give up?
Thinking like this, he continued to climb up.
Although it is only halfway up the mountain, there are clouds and mist floating in the canyon, obscuring the view, and the occasional white crane flies by, calling far away.
This may be the only consolation in their hearts, if there is no one around, there is nothing around, and one person climbs this mountain, I am afraid that it will not be long before my heart collapses.
What else to talk about to reach the top?
Thinking like this, they climbed about a foot again.
"Ahhh~!"
Suddenly, a scream full of despair came from the abyss at the bottom of his feet, making people shudder.
The movements of the two men's hands and feet stopped, their faces slightly pale, and the white spread rapidly to the rest of their bodies until they covered their entire bodies.
There is no doubt that the man who tried to escape died.
They looked at the woman who had unwittingly advanced them a little more, and from this angle, the woman's plump buttocks were as delicate as a peach.
What a slender woman, what made her so determined to climb the first mountain in the world?
The two looked at each other, smiled wryly, paused, and continued to climb.
After climbing about a foot further, one of the men suddenly heard a "rustling" sound around him, and he instinctively realized something, and with a sigh in his heart, he looked to the side.
I saw that the only man left except him, the iron claw in his hand fell off from his hand because it was completely broken, and he fell into the abyss.
Both of them turned pale at the same time.
The person concerned is white because he realizes that he may be going to die because of the broken iron claw.
The bystander is whitened by the realization that he may have to witness a death at some point in the next moment because of the broken claw.
The air froze, and neither of them spoke, both in a daze.
The cold wind in the valley was still blowing, and their faces were painful.
The bystander gritted his teeth and continued to climb up, but as soon as his hand was forced, the man next to him said.
He couldn't help but look at the other person, eyes full of despair and hope at the same time.
The other party said, "Help... Help me..."
It is not so much "saying" as "asking".
Yes, he is "begging".
Ask him to help him.
"I can't help you, I can't protect myself," he refused without thinking about it, and continued to climb up.
The man's face turned paler.
He also knew that the man's face must have turned paler, but so what
He can't protect himself.
He continued to climb up, and soon there was a sound of "rustling" from under him.
He was slightly stunned, he knew that the man had started to climb again.
After another moment, he climbed half a foot away, and then looked overhead, the woman was getting farther and farther away from him, and the clouds in the mountains slightly obscured his vision, so that he could not see the woman's upright peach buttocks a little.
It seemed a pity, he thought.
It seemed a little ridiculous, he thought, because it was all this time, and his mind was still thinking about the woman's slender figure.
With a slight smile, he continued to climb.
But at this very moment.
Swish!
"Ahhh~!"
First there was a sharp grinding sound, followed by a terrible scream.
His face turned white all of a sudden, and he knew that the man had also fallen.
He didn't dare to look.
The terrible screams grew farther and farther away until they were completely annihilated.
He took a few deep breaths and looked up, and at this time, he could only vaguely catch a glimpse of the woman's figure.
Suddenly, a deep sense of dread enveloped him. Originally, there were three men and one woman, but now there is only one man left, and the woman is also very ahead. On this steep and deserted mountain wall, it can be said that he is alone.
The fear of loneliness gripped him.
Can I still return?
Yes.
Can you enter?
You can too. But there is less vitality than retreat.
Then retreat.
No.
It's all here, if you retreat, won't your previous efforts be wasted?
After a pause, he gritted his teeth and climbed up again.
For some reason, he was faster than ever, perhaps out of fear of death, perhaps in his desire to succeed, or in his desire to escape the lonely and cold atmosphere around him.
It could also be...
I want to chase that fair woman.
As he climbed, the cold wind blew through his ears from above, causing a knife-like pain, and sometimes his vision was obscured by clouds.
Gradually, he could clearly see the slender shadow again.
For no reason, a trace of joy welled up in his heart.
But then, two voices rang out at the same time.
He and she stopped at the same time.
The iron claws of the two broke and fell off at the same time, making a neat sound that coincided, and they fell into the abyss.
The man was stunned, then looked at the woman.
The woman was stunned, then looked at the mountain wall on the left.
He saw it, she saw it. It was a spiky green plant.
Both of them recognized what it was, as they had known it when they came. This is a plant unique to Tianji Mountain, called Iron Needle Flower.
The whole body is slender and green, and usually has four to six thick spikes, the largest of which can be as thick and long as a woman's small arm. The small one is as thick as a finger.
There is a role - to act as a climbing tool.
The method is very simple, endure the sharp pain of the palm being pierced, hold the part with small spikes, and then manipulate the iron needle flower to chisel through the mountain wall with the part with large spikes and climb up.
It is tougher and more durable than the iron claws made of fine iron, and a single iron needle flower can climb the entire Tianji Mountain.
It's just that no one dares to use it, because no one can stand the pain of the palm being pierced through the palm by several slender spikes.
The mountain wall next to the two of them was staggered, and there were iron needles piercing through the holes and emerging outside.
The man glanced at the iron needle flower beside him, and the corners of his mouth were filled with bitterness.
The woman looked at the iron needle flower beside her, but her eyes were like a drowning person seeing a life-saving straw, and she almost did not hesitate to reach out and grab the root of the iron needle flower with small spikes.
With a "poof", the white and delicate palm was instantly pierced by several green slender spikes, and the red blood burst out, like a bright blooming poppy.
The woman's delicate face was expressionless, and under the horrified gaze of the man below, she pulled out the iron needle flower, and then began to chisel the wall and climb.
Her limbs are slender, and she is not far behind among men, and she wears a green tights that accentuates her slender figure. It's just that this tights are damaged in many places due to the friction of the mountain wall, and the snow-white skin is also abrased in many places, and some are still bleeding.
The needle flower is very useful, and she climbs much faster than before.
I don't know how long it took to climb.
"Ahhh~!"
A terrible scream came from below.
She didn't hesitate and continued to climb up...
