The old man seemed to be very sensitive to these three words, and immediately stopped. From the other party's reaction, Lang Hatian realized that the road in front of him did not seem to be so smooth.

"It seems that the seniors know what the Ascending Steps are?"

The old man was silent for a moment, nodded, and told Lang Hatian the specific process.

"It was Lei Tianning's decision, I didn't expect that after so many years, he was still haunted by that incident."

"Listen to the words of the seniors, this heavenly step, is it really that dangerous?"

The other party's deep eyes looked at Lang Hattian's puzzled face, sighed, and persuaded him: "Child, find a place to hide first, Lei Tianning is trying to make it difficult for you, Tianjie。。。。。。 Not for you to be able to get through now. ”

"Has no one ever made it to the top before?"

"Yes, more than 160 years ago, there was a man who succeeded."

Time passed little by little, and Lang Hatian got a lot of information from the old man's mouth. The old man left, and the dense fog around him dissipated, revealing the figure of Lang Hatetian, standing alone in place. The sun evaporated the last of the mist and sprinkled it warmly on his face.

Lang hated the sky and raised his head, watching the rising sun, and had already made a decision in his heart. He descended the cliff and, after some inquiry, walked towards a house in the south of the mountain.

Bai Wangyu was woken up by a burst of itching, and when he opened his eyes, he found a caterpillar wriggling on his cheek, and he got up disgustingly to shake the thing off, only to find that the surrounding mist had lifted. Lang hated the sky and disappeared a long time ago. Bai Wangyu touched the back of his neck, which was still a little numb, secretly said bad in his heart, and hurriedly spread his steps to find the other party.

But he searched for almost an hour, but he couldn't find any trace of Lang Hatian, let alone Qiao Honglin. When he dragged his tired body back to Qu Shuxuan's residence, he found that Lu Xiaochen in the house had woken up.

"What are you doing?"

Apparently he's recovering well. Bai Wangyu was speechless for a while, only to see Lu Xiaochen wave his arm and throw a cloth bag at him. Bai Wangyu opened the cloth and found that it was a branch of a medicinal herb inside.

"It's the heartworm, which was sent by that kid who just hated the sky."

"What about others?"

"Gone, didn't say anything."

After hearing this, Bai Wangyu's eyes moistened, and he almost burst into tears. He felt ashamed of what he had done.

"That kid is taking such a big risk, and I'm 。。。。。。"

"Okay idiot, hurry up and boil medicine for Shuxuan, remember to put less, a small piece is enough!"

Soon after, the medicine had been boiled, Qu Shuxuan drank the medicine, felt very good, and now fell asleep. Bai Wangyu and the others were relieved and sat on the ground.

"Great, the medicine has worked, Shuxuan is finally fine."

"You bastard, if you dare to do this again in the future, I will kill you!"

"Okay, okay, I know it's wrong, but this time it's really thanks to that kid, this favor, I must pay it back in the future."

"That's nature, but 。。。。。。 His current situation is not good, Elder Qiao and Master, as well as the people of the Lei Sect, are all targeting him. ”

"By the way, yesterday, I heard what Xiangmen said about the Ascending Steps, what kind of test is it!?"

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaochen fell into deep thought.

"Hey, why don't you talk?"

"I'm just thinking about something, what you just said about the Ascending Steps, I seem to have heard the previous master and Elder Qiao mention it?"

"What do they say?"

"Ascending the Heavenly Steps, it seems to be the most severe test and the harshest punishment in Lei Gang Mountain, and it has always been rarely used, because Elder Qiao is in charge of the precepts within the mountain gate, so he knows better. But if the steps of ascending to heaven in the mouth of the head of the sect are consistent with what Elder Qiao said, then Lang hating the sky is probably more auspicious。。。。。。 ”

"What are you talking about, that day is so dangerous!?"

"The so-called heavenly steps are the last section of the main road leading to the Cangsheng Hall on Lei Gang Mountain, there are a total of fifty stone steps, there will be ten elders standing every five steps, and the punished person must climb from the bottom of the stone steps, and follow the respective blows of the ten elders in order, and they can't resist or fight back, until they have completed the journey, they will be considered to pass."

Bai Wangyu gasped.

"What are you kidding, the blow of the ten elders, although it is not full strength, but they are at least genuine and strong in the state of mind!"

That's why I said he was in a very bad situation. As the name suggests, the ladder of ascension is difficult to ascend to the sky, and it is specially set up for those who have committed the heinous sins, often nine deaths, or even ten deaths, but as long as they survive this hurdle, the benefits are also unexpected. ”

"What happens if I pass the Heavenly Steps?"

"No matter what sins you have committed before, write them off!"

After listening to this, Bai Wangyu looked at the sky, there were birds flying there, and he was praying for Lang Hatian, because in his opinion, the other party would never be able to pass this level, if possible, he hoped that Lang Hatian would escape.

Lang Hatian also thought so, relying on his body that he had never cultivated, to block the blows of the ten elders, he thought he didn't have that ability.

The birds in the sky flew through Bai Wangyu's eyes, and they were reflected in Lang Hatian's eyes, the same birds, the same heavy heart.

Ever since he heard the meaning of the Ascending Stairs from the old man, all the complex emotions that had plagued Lang Hatian in his heart were swept away, and only fear remained, occupying his whole body. Therefore, after he delivered the heartgrass, he alone found a deserted hillside, which was outside the Lei Gang Mountain, and no one could find this place.

He wanted to be alone.

On this low hill, looking forward, you can see the road when you first came to Leigang Mountain, winding and twisting, stretching into the Ten Chaos Mountain Range. But Lang has no intention of enjoying the scenery, and he is making difficult choices.

I don't know what I can do, and I don't know what to do.

Lang hattian is not a reckless man, he also knows that he can't succeed, so he plans to retreat, maybe there are other ways to join Lei Gangshan, it is not necessarily, many elders are supporting themselves, with their help, it should be possible to achieve it without going through this test, since this is the case。。。。。。

The more he thought about it, the more determined he was to retreat, although he sometimes felt very cowardly, but Lang hattian felt that as long as he found a way to preserve his strength first, there would always be hope. Until he was so distraught that he stood up and planned to walk around.

It will take him a few hours to leave. It wasn't until he came back to his senses that Lang Hatian realized that he had walked into the town below the mountain.

It was noon, and the aroma wafting from every house made him swallow. Lang Hatian took out his pocket, bought three or two buns with the few remaining jade baht and bun shop, and put them in his mouth to nibble. As he walked, he ate when he came across an old beggar in dirty clothes, with gray hair and a broken bowl in front of him, dressed in tattered clothes.

The beggar was not an ordinary downcast, not only unclothed, but also blind, with saliva at the corners of his mouth, either a fool or a madman.

Lang hattian only glanced at it, and then he felt unappetizing, and hurriedly quickened his pace. Until then, the old beggar had remained motionless, letting flies crawl around his face until Lang Hatian appeared before him. At this time, the beggar, like a mad dog smelling the smell of meat, suddenly got up without warning and pounced towards Lang Hattian.

Feeling a foul smell but getting stronger and stronger, Lang hated Tian only glanced back, and hurriedly ran away.

It stinks.

This scene is familiar, think about your first encounter with Old Man Liang in Nanhui City, isn't that it? But this old beggar, Lang hated the sky and concluded that he had absolutely nothing to do with the other party, maybe he came purely for the buns in his hand!

Another point is that he stinks worse than Old Man Liang!

Lang hated the sky and ran, and finally panicked and entered a dead end, and when he turned around, the beggar was already blocked at the mouth of the alley.

It's no longer a problem.
