When the three of them came to Xiaochun Lake, there were already many people around, and the lake was surrounded by water, and the three of them squeezed into it with a lot of effort.

In the open space in the center, there were several long queues, and at the front, there were several white-robed young people who were testing these teenagers.

"Let's get in line. Fang Chen urged Yun Yueru and pointed to a team with fewer people.

Yun Yueru glanced at Fang Chen, and passed over with a sigh.

Looking at the figure in the distance, Xiao Wu seemed to hear a slight exhalation sound beside him, and looked at Fang Chen carefully, but he didn't notice any changes.

There was a stove in front of every white-robed young man, and there was no firewood to be seen, but it was not extinguished.

The test is as simple as casting a technique called Ignite Kill on the flames in the brazier to ignite the fire.

The team slowly moved forward, and one teenager after another walked out of the group with their heads downcast, reluctantly squeezing into the surrounding crowd, watching the failures of others, and then laughing with the crowd.

One of them swayed the flames, rising up and down, he showed joy, looked up at the white-robed youth, but saw that the white-robed young man was still shaking his head, the person's appearance became a little hideous, he asked: Why can't I pass? What are your requirements?

The young man's face remained unchanged, except for him to watch.

The line slowly shrank, and a young girl walked forward, flickering her bare hands, and the flames seemed to come alive, beating at her fingertips.

"It's that senior sister. Xiao Wu whispered.

"Do you know her?" Fang Chen wondered.

"I've seen it a few times in the library hall. Xiao Wu responded.

"I can't say that I want to have a relationship with you in the future," Fang Chen quipped.

"Isn't there still Senior Sister Yun?" Xiao Wu was puzzled, and Fang Chen instantly shut up.

The white-robed young man on the stage smiled and nodded, signaling the girl to come behind him, and the person on the side felt shameless, didn't say anything, and left directly.

Finally it was Yun Yueru's turn, and the flames did not change under her control, but the white-robed youth still counted her through.

"Why!" someone dissatisfied.

Several white-robed youths ignored it, and the girl from before stepped forward and explained: "The flame just now has nearly doubled in temperature under the control of this junior sister, and it may not be easy to find it if it is farther away." ”

Yun Yueru, who was behind the white-robed youth, also ignored the below, winking at Fang Chen in the distance.

Fang Chen saw that Yun Yueru had passed the test, and he was also happy for her, and gave her a thumbs up.

After a while, Yun Yueru ran down from the stage and said, "Brother Fang, I'm going to follow them to the island in the middle of the lake, you can go back first." ”

Fang Chen nodded: "If there is anything, we will just pass on the message." ”

After saying goodbye to each other, they went back to their residences.

Xiao Wu returned to the small courtyard, thinking that he had heard rumors of a fight between the master and the great elder on the way, so he asked Daojing about whether the master was out of the customs.

"Shizun has been out of the customs a few days ago, and he has been in the Yuan Dao Hall for the past few days. Daojing replied.

"I want to see Master, but I don't know if it's convenient or not. ”

"Recently, Shizun has nothing to do, and there is no inconvenience. ”

"It's getting late, I'll go tomorrow. ”

Xiao Wu took back the token and lowered his head in contemplation: Since he came out of the aura eye, Xiao Wu found that the refining of qi was extremely slow.

Now that Senior Sister Yun has entered Xiaochun Lake, she may be able to find out the news of the elixir.

......

"Hello master. Xiao Wu bowed down.

"Want to go out to find the elixir?" the sect master's calm eyes seemed to see through everything.

Xiao Wu was a little furious, wondering how he would know, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"The Sect Master has the right to check what is going on in the path of inquiry. ”

Xiao Wu's heart jumped and he looked at the master in front of him.

"Don't think about it too much, it's just that from the perspective of the sect, you have to be careful. And the Great Elder also has the right to watch. ”

Xiao Wu didn't feel good in his heart, and at the same time he was curious: "Does the Great Elder also pay attention to me?"

"You've seen him in the cave. The Sect Master smiled a little.

As soon as Xiao Wu recalled, his eyes suddenly straightened, and he swallowed his saliva and asked, "Master, you and the Great Elder him?"

"You don't have to worry about these things. As for the elixir, my Dao Sect is not without it. The sect master said slowly.

Xiao Wu's eyes lit up, but he heard the sect master continue: "But the few you need are in the secret realm, and I can't give them to you now." And you, too, are not qualified to take it. ”

"When can I give it to me? Xiao Wu was a little anxious.

"The group of young people in the secret realm are doing it, you can find Daojing. Also, you can try to break through the Cloud Mountain, the resources of Guanyun Peak are too poor, and it will not help your cultivation. ”

"Yes, Master, the disciple is retiring. Xiao Wu winked at Dao Jing as he spoke.

The sect master smiled and waved his hand: "You guys go down." ”

The two retired together.

Out of the main hall, Xiao Wu raised his head and asked Jing, "Senior brother, when will the secret realm be opened?"

"The secret realm has never been closed, they have been preparing to enter it, the specific time is not clear, but it has only been a few months. ”

"Senior brother, someone told me that the situation of the sect is very critical......

"Yes, but so what? Isn't it normal to practice?" Dao Jing smiled slightly.

Xiao Wu didn't speak, he didn't know where he was going, if he really went to the last step, how would he choose?

Xiao Wu didn't know how to get back to the courtyard, he just felt like a mess in his mind, and he preferred to escape, but he couldn't.

Boredom, Xiao Wu rushed out of Guanyun Peak and entered the Forest of Life and Death all the way, dyed with blood all the way, and eliminated the boredom in his heart. When he came back to his senses, looking at the blood stains and the broken flesh all over his body, many of which were just small animals that could be killed with a slap, Xiao Wu was stunned for a long time.

"What's wrong with me?" Xiao Wu looked at his hands in disbelief, rushed out of the woods, and wailed with his head in his hands.

"Why is this happening?" Xiao Wu felt as if there was a voice in his heart telling him not to stop, no matter how strong or weak, killing was the best.

Xiao Wu patted his head all the way and jumped into the water, and the icy lake water calmed Xiao Wu's restless heart a lot. Xiao Wu exhaled deeply, and returned to the small courtyard with the sound of ticking water.

Xiao Wu, who calmed down, was a little afraid, and after thinking about it, he took out the token and told Daojing about the situation.

"What are you upset about?" asked Daojing.

"Something about the sect. If that happens, I should fight together, but I still have a few things to do. Xiao Wu thought for a long time before he said it.

"Don't think about this, there really will be a day, even if you don't want to go, you will be sent out, after all, it's useless for you to stay. Daojing comforted: "Don't worry too much, relax." ”

Dao Jing asked Xiao Wu Mo to take it to heart, but how could Xiao Wu do it, but he didn't continue to dwell on this question, and asked another doubt in his heart: "But I don't cultivate my mind, why is this happening?"

"It's hard to say this, the path of cultivation is already a thousand people, so it's good to maintain your original mind. ”

The two disconnected communication, and Xiao Wu became more and more guilty.

At the same time, I was also thinking about the previous voice in my heart, that voice was exactly the same as my own, could it be a demon?

......

Because the progress of cultivation slowed down, Xiao Wu often went to Fang Chen's place to fight, and the two became more familiar. Chi Xiaodao came very rarely, and he was usually doing penance, but after Yun Yueru entered Xiaochun Lake, he came over less often, but the information was more.

"Xiao Wu, how about we do this month's task together?"

"Okay. ”

It has been the second month since Xiao Wu entered Guanyun Peak, and the deacon hall also sent a message to remind him of the mission. This is Xiao Wu's first time doing a task, and someone is naturally happy to take it.

Fang Chen took Xiao Wu and Chi Xiaodao into the deacon's hall together, there were many tasks on the announcement, Fang Chen glanced at them and pointed at one of them: "How about this red snake gall?"

Chi Xiaodao didn't care, Xiao Wu didn't object, Fang Chen clicked the token in the taskbar, Chi Xiaodao also clicked, Xiao Wu curiously learned from them, when they touched, a related message came out of the token, Xiao Wu was stunned.

The three of them walked out of the main hall, and a figure suddenly jumped out on the side of the road, Xiao Wu instinctively took a step back, and then realized that it was Yun Yueru.

Yun Yueru smiled: "Brother Fang, why don't you call me when you go on a mission?"

Fang Chen scratched his head: "You don't need to do tasks every month when you go to Xiaochun Lake." ”

"Okay, but this time we finally have time, let's go together. Yun Yueru stood beside Fang Chen with a smile, and Chi Xiaodao consciously gave way.

The quest shows a few places where the red chain snake may be found, which is not very difficult, but the demand is high, and a few people have run a few places to count.

Xiao Wu said goodbye to Fang Chen after handing over the task, saying that he wanted to go for a walk by himself, and at the same time, Chi Xiaodao also said that he wanted to go back to practice, leaving Fang Chen, who raised his hand and didn't know where to put it, and Yun Yueru, whose face was slightly red.

At night, Xiao Wu lay in the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky, lying in a daze.

......

"Are you going to go directly to Izumo Mountain?" Fang Chen was surprised.

"Hmm. Xiao Wu nodded.

Mo Yuan said that if he wanted to enter the secret realm, he had to at least enter and exit Yunshan, and he didn't have time to wait.

"The Hedan Realm can enter and exit the Cloud Mountain, and under the Hedan Realm is in the Guanyun Peak, so why is there a Luoxia Valley in the middle?" Fang Chen asked Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu shook his head, and Fang Chen continued: "Because the cultivation on Izumo Mountain is all on your own, only in Luoxia Valley there are elders who explain the essence of Hedan, and no one will help you when you go to Izumo Mountain. ”

Xiao Wu was clear, but his cultivation path, the elders here couldn't help, to prevent Fang Chen from worrying, Xiao Wu said: "Then I'll go up the mountain first, and then enter Luoxia Valley." ”

Who knew that Fang Chen shook his head and said solemnly: "It's different, Hedan is a distraction Hedan, this step needs to be carefully figured out, many people stay in Luoxia Valley for decades, and the battle on Izumo Mountain is too fierce, and someone will come to challenge at any time." ”

Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, if this is the case, there is no need to worry: "Senior Brother Fang, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Fang Chen didn't say much more: "Okay, I don't know much about Izumo Mountain, but Liu Hao has a relationship with the people inside, and now the person he hates the most, except for me, is you, you have to be careful." ”

Xiao Wu nodded, made an appointment to go over tomorrow, and returned to the peak.

The miscellaneous disciple I met before was delivering food, Xiao Wu had met him many times, and he knew each other, and asked, "I heard you say that you have been in the mountains for ten years, why do you want to do miscellaneous labor here?"

"Who wants to be a handyman? Who here isn't trying to be stronger?" The slightly bent body suddenly straightened up, he looked at Xiao Wu and said: "I have poor qualifications, but I am willing to make up for it with more things, I believe that qualifications do not mean everything." ”

Xiao Wu looked at those resolute eyes, and couldn't help but ask himself in his heart: Are you willing to do a handyman here for ten years? Maybe you can, maybe you can't, but the person in front of you has already done it.

"I'm going to Izumo Mountain, so you don't have to deliver food for me in the future. ”

'Poof', the handyman knelt down in front of Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu was a little surprised, hurriedly stepped aside, and said: "You are much older than me, it stands to reason that I should call your brother, something to say." ”

The handyman knelt on the ground and said, "This world never looks at age, I just want to go to Izumo Mountain with you, and now, I can only repay you with one life." ”

"You get up first, it's useless for you to beg me for this kind of thing. Xiao Wu persuaded him.

"I'm just a handyman, no one knows me, and you're the only one who can ask for it. I've been waiting for ten years, and I don't have a second ten years to wait, and if you don't agree today, I'll die here on my knees, and I'll end my life. ”
