He Jianshuang: "......" He froze in place, unable to say a word for a long time. The roots of the ears hidden by the hair were quietly red.

Yanling: "......Don't be shy, I'm embarrassed too!(╯‵□′)╯(┻━┻

When the disciples of the Haoshan Sect in the back saw He Jianshuang standing there, they took two steps forward and asked, "Senior Brother He, have you found Miss Yanling, what are you doing standing there?"

He Jianshuang took a breath, suddenly put the bush back up, turned around, blocked the sight of the two for Yanling without a trace, and said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just an ordinary small animal." Let's split up and I'll continue to look for it here. ”

"That's fine. The two men answered, and went their separate ways.

gone, at least there is no need to run naked in full view of everyone - Yanling breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.

When the two of them were far away, He Jianshuang, who had her back to her, stood quietly for a while, and suddenly extinguished the torch in her hand. Then, casually throwing the stick aside, without saying a word, he took off his coat, handed the clothes back to her, and said coldly, "Put it on." ”

Yanling looked up in surprise, her heart warmed, and then she carefully came out of the bushes, naked, and quickly took his coat and draped it over herself. Her movements were fast, but thanks to the moonlight and the direction of the light tonight, He Jianshuang could clearly see her projection on the ground. The slender arm took his clothes, then quickly wrapped around his petite body, and then lowered his head to pound the clothes belt.

It was quiet, except for the sound of Suosuo's voice and his own heartbeat. The picture I saw just now lingered in my mind, and He Jianshuang inexplicably felt a burst of heat and annoyance: "Are you dressed?"

Yan Ling tied up the belt of her clothes firmly and breathed a sigh of relief, although He Jianshuang was not much taller than her, but after all, she was a teenager, the width of her shoulders and the length of her sleeves didn't fit, and the inside of her coat was nothing, empty. However, I finally had clothes to cover my shame, and the discomfort of one night finally subsided a lot.

She tugged at Rakamishuang's sleeve: "I'm done, you can turn around." ”

He Jianshuang turned around, only to see Yanling honestly drooping her head.

Thinking that she was hiding here naked tonight, and she didn't know what had happened, he felt an indescribable irritability and unhappiness in his heart, and his voice was a little colder: "Tonight, what happened?"

Yanling thought for a while and replied, "There was a man who wanted to snatch my iron piece and was knocked unconscious by me, so I tied his hands by the way." As for my clothes, I had some accidents in the woods after I escaped, which is a long story, but I was fine, I was just a little frightened. ”

Seeing her obediently explain, He Jianshuang's face turned a little pale, and his mood became a little better.

Yan Ling pinched her sleeves, bowed her head slightly, and said sincerely: "Thank you, if it weren't for you, I would probably have to hide here all night tonight." ”

He Jianshuang raised his eyebrows: "If I don't come, you won't go back?"

Yanling said honestly: "Almost." So, I'm glad to be with you. ”

He Jianshuang: "......"

Being watched by Yan Ling's dark eyes, He Jianshuang's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly felt a little shy. He suppressed this feeling, turned his head uncomfortably, and snorted coldly: "Say good things." Let's go back quickly. ”

"Uh-huh. Yan Ling responded embarrassedly and happily.

After taking two steps, He Jianshuang looked down at Yanling's feet: "Your shoes are also missing?"

Yanling nodded and moved her feet. Although she had no shoes, it didn't hurt to walk like this, so she didn't say a word.

He saw Shuang's eyebrows, squatted down in front of her, and said, "Come up." ”

Yan Ling blinked, accepted his kindness, climbed onto He Jianshuang's back with his hands and feet, and hugged his neck: "Thank you." ”

He Jianshuang pushed her a little harder and carried her steadily. After a little weighing, there was some surprise - this guy is not said to be two years older than himself, but he is so slender and so slender that he weighs too little, like a kitten, lying warmly on his back......

Thanks to him, Yanling didn't have to go to the rugged mountain road herself, and the speed of the two of them was indeed a lot faster.

She was lying quietly on He Jianshuang's back - now she was lying on her stomach, but the back of the big devil who would dominate the future was ah. But there is no sense of danger or running aground, but there is an inexplicable sense of security.

Recalling his series of actions just now, including handing out clothes, extinguishing torches so as not to provoke outsiders, and blocking the eyes of outsiders with his sleeves, Yanling couldn't help but sigh - at a critical moment, He Jianshuang did have a reliability and carefulness that surpassed his peers.

Being able to get in touch with your favorite characters like this is probably an unexpected bonus of this trip. She lay on He Jianshuang's back, rested her head on his neck, and gently closed her eyes, finally having time to rest for a while after a day of tense nerves.

Walking to the bottom of the large stone gate of the Artemisia Mountain Sect, the firelight reflected the stairs brightly. The human voice came into her ears, and Yan Ling opened her eyes: "We...... Have you arrived?"

"Hmm. He Jianshuang replied lightly and carried her up the stone steps. The appearance of the two immediately attracted the attention of the rest of the people-

"It's back!"

"Found it, Miss Yanling found it!"

"Senior Brother He has found the person back, quickly inform Senior Brother ......"

Mei Yanzhi, who learned the news, came back quickly, and saw the wolf bèi of the two from a distance, especially Yanling, a girl who was unclothed, with a sharp look in her eyes, and strode forward.

The incense in the incense burner is almost finished, and the final assessment must not be delayed. Yan Ling lay on He Jianshuang's back, looked left and right, and finally saw a person who could talk about things, and hurriedly handed out the five small pieces of iron that had been pinched in his palm for a long time, spread out his palm, and hurriedly sent them to Mei Yanzhi, who had just walked to him: "Senior brother, look, I have passed the guò assessment, and I can stay in the Artemisia Mountain Sect!"

Mei Yanzhi was a little stunned - the first thing she was thinking about was nothing else, but this?

She really wanted to stay in the Artemisia Mountain Sect......

He looked at her deeply, took the thing, and seemed to want to say something, but felt that this was not the place to speak, and coughed lightly: "Is there any injury?"

"Nope. Yanling shook her head.

"I see. You...... Let's go back and rest first. We'll talk about tonight later. ”

Yan Ling nodded, He Jianshuang's face was cold, but he also politely nodded to Mei Yanzhi a little, and left with Yan Ling on his back.

Yan Ling lowered her eyes - because she knew that He Jianshuang and Mei Yanzhi would become enemies in the future, Yan Ling couldn't help but pay special attention to their relationship and get along. From this point of view, there is no friction between the two for the time being, and there is no obvious mutual exclusion in their personalities.

Sure enough, did their hatred start with the incident of "the Artemisia Mountain faction was slaughtered by the whole family", and it was completely intensified because they fell in love with the same woman?

The missing person returned, and the disciples who had entered the mountain also returned one after another when they learned the news.

In the early morning, the incense burns to the bottom and slowly extinguishes. The final assessment has finally come to an end.

In this assessment, among the more than 60 preparatory disciples, a total of 20 people stood out. also includes Yin Ling.

Someone was responsible for cleaning up the scene, and Mei Yanzhi was ready to go back to the room to rest. Yu Yiqing hugged his shoulders from behind, and said with a smile as he walked: "Tut-tut, Yanzhi, I've heard it all - our little sister in order to stay in the Artemisia Mountain faction, she is so wolfy, she doesn't even have clothes, shoes or anything, and she is really infatuated with you and has nothing to say." ”

Mei Yanzhi: "......"

Yu Yiqing looked Mei Yanzhi up and down with an expression of looking at the negative man, and said: "You said you, were you too harsh on people before?"

Mei Yanzhi stopped and said coldly: "You are very idle?"

"What?"

"Go back and follow me to the back mountain to practice swords. ”

"Huh?" Yu Yiqing had a bitter face: "Yanzhi, just spare me." ”

……

In this final assessment, there were more than 60 preparatory disciples, and in the end, 20 people stood out. Those who were not shortlisted naturally had to pack up their baggage and leave—including the unlucky man who tried to snatch the iron piece from Yanling's hand, but in turn his hands were tied.

In just a few days, the unsuccessful people left one after another, and the Artemisia Mountain faction also became much quieter. Originally, because there were too many people, they had to be divided into two teams, so they were reintegrated into one and practiced in a unified manner. In other words, in the future, Yanling will be able to practice with He Jianshuang.

Two days later, in the early morning, the 20 finalists gathered in the old place, Houshan. Yan Ling looked around, there were twenty people here, many of them had some minor injuries, and the strictest ones came on crutches.

He Jianshuang, who completed the task unscathed and with ease, made her understand what "talent" is. No wonder he can be so bullish in the future, not only calling for wind and rain, but also competing with Chu Yiheng - because his own qualifications are better than ordinary people.

Speaking of which...... Yan Ling raised the corners of her mouth - the feeling of being able to witness the process of her favorite character slowly becoming stronger - it was really rare.

She also saw quite a few familiar faces. For example, the girl Yin Ling with a cold face - I heard that she was the third to return to the sect this time, and the daughter of the Yin family of the martial arts family is really extraordinary. Also shortlisted is a short girl who often follows her. And the boy who was caught by Yanling that day and asked He to see the whereabouts of the frost was also at the scene.
