The next day, when everything was silent, the eastern horizon shone with a glimmer of light, and in a cave with a closed stone door, the young man woke up from the stone bed, stretched his waist, looked out of the window thoughtfully, looked at the silent courtyard, looked in a trance, put on a white robe, slowly got up from the stone bed, and walked out of the cave leisurely.

"Senior, while there is no one now, let's go down the mountain. He stood tall and looked up at the breeze in the distance, the stacked peaks rising between the horizon, standing among the vast sea of clouds, and the seven great halls built on the mountain peaks, faintly in the horizon.

"It's fine. The green-shirted Taoist pondered for a moment and nodded lightly.

He took out a scoop of water from the well, moistened his face, and the cool coolness seeped into the bone marrow, he couldn't help but shiver, and then leaned down and went down, the early winter was approaching, and even the well water was dyed with a layer of frost, like duckweed-like frost flowers, floating on the calm water.

"I didn't expect that so much time has passed, and it has been two years since I first came to Tianlan Courtyard. The breeze gently stirred up a ripple, and the reflection in the water, no longer the stone wall in the deep well, gradually dissipated as the ripples gradually dissipated, and his sentimental face was reflected in the water waves.

"The people you see now who don't see the end of the dragon, but they have been in retreat for thousands of years, compared to you in the past two years, what they have experienced is the real changes of the years, what you are experiencing now is just a momentary thing for them, don't let this emotion affect you. He sighed softly and turned slowly, no one noticed, and his perceptive eyes revealed a hint of loneliness that could not be concealed.

"Before I set off, I want to go to the Spirit Pavilion to see if there is any mission to go down the mountain, after all, with my current entanglement, I am not allowed to live alone in Huainan for three months. ”

He weighed the weight of the storage bag in his belt with his hand, poured out dozens of spirit stones of different colors from the storage bag, and then smiled helplessly and put away the spirit stones scattered on the ground.

And the space is like a small mountain, all with a dim pile of spiritual stones, it seems that it will only give more space to occupy something, the dim lack of spiritual spirit stones, the whole space, with the most intense aura in that area, if you don't pay attention carefully, you won't pay attention to it for the rest of your life, rolling into a ball of cotton wool, around the pile of spiritual stones, a thick cloud-like vortex, keeping the aura in the clouds from being lost.

In the current ring space, the pocket sword occupies the south of the space, like two worlds, with the pocket sword suspended in the dark void, the south is like a complete isolation from Zhou Yusheng's mental connection, and in the center of the pocket sword, the slowly gathering purple electric clouds, slowly rotating, four converging spiritual torrents, there is an ethereal cloud chain, warming the purple electric clouds in it, and in this piece of heaven and earth, the aura is like a level, tilting towards the pocket little sword.

Zhou Yusheng thought like this in his heart, and returned to the cave without hesitation, and put all the things that could be packed and taken away in the cave back into the storage bag, compared to these, Zhou Yusheng was more worried about Tang Wan's safety, these three months down the mountain, he couldn't take care of Tang Wan's daily life all the time, and he couldn't take Tang Wan with him, no one could take care of Tang Wan, it was always something he couldn't rest assured.

"That little fat man, I see that the heart is simple, you might as well hand over Tang Wan to the little fat man, at least follow him, than follow you, you have to be worried every day, and the little fat man, I'm afraid he has also comprehended a certain kind of Buddhist mind, I look at the fat man, the Buddha's light shines, and there is a great image of Maitreya. ”

Seeing that Zhou Yusheng was in a tangled mood, the Qingyi Taoist frowned, touched his chin and didn't know what he was thinking, then slowly raised his head, took out the Binglin Yuan token from under his sleeve, and said a few words silently towards the token.

On a cyan lotus seat, his face changed slightly, the Buddha beads held in the palm of his hand, the rich Brahmanic gas, emanated from the lotus, in his dantian, permeated the entire Buddha statue, on his chest, there seemed to be the sound of Buddhist chanting, the sound of the long rock, the slightest into the ears, echoing in this closed and dark space, becoming the only light in this secret room.

A few hours later, the heavy stone gate fell to the ground with a bang, and sat on a small gray cloud, flying back and forth rapidly in the void more than ten zhang high from the residence.

His expression was solemn, looking down at the sea of clouds that was gradually blurring under his feet, his determined gaze looked faintly ahead, and the bottom of his eyes as deep as a cold pool swept a touch of persistence.

This time, when Zhou Yusheng walked into the door of the Spirit Pavilion, he couldn't help but look stunned.

I saw that a hall was crowded with a bustling crowd, there were fifty or sixty people, most of them were disciples of the middle and lower halls under Binglin, but there were also seven or eight people wearing the costumes of the disciples of the Jialan Hall sandwiched between them.

"May I ask this senior brother, what is the situation, are there so many people here in normal times?" Zhou Yusheng blinked, walked a few steps to a disciple who was also Binglin Yan near the door, and asked with an arched hand.

"It seems that this junior brother is also here for the first time, and the junior brother is also a coincidence, today is the time when the Spirit Pavilion rotates various sect tasks once a year, naturally many people are in a hurry, wanting to choose a better person to task, but in fact, these are just in vain, most of those tasks with oil and water have already been set. ”

The disciple bowed politely, glanced at Zhou Yusheng, and casually looked at several young people in the main hall in front of everyone, and sighed helplessly, but he didn't say anything, but saw that Zhou Yusheng was not familiar with the appearance of the Spirit Pavilion, and pointed to the place where the crowd was most dense.

"I see, thank you for telling me. Zhou Yusheng nodded abruptly.

"Look at the clothes of the junior brother, it should also be a person from Binglin Rong, and the disciple Chen An sat down in the lower Binglin Rong Zhang Zhangjiao, I don't know the surname of the junior brother, if you have a chance in the future, you might as well move around more. This name Chen An couldn't help but feel a little good when he saw that although Zhou Yusheng was not very old, he looked so polite, and asked casually.

"It turned out to be a disciple of Zhangzhang's sect, and for the rest of his life next week, as for the uncle of this sect, it is Uncle Chen. Zhou Yusheng hesitated for a while, thought about it, and felt that this was a bit casual, so he changed his words and said in a different way.

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Zhou, and looking at Senior Brother Zhou's appearance, he was preparing for the battle test five months later. When Chen An heard this, he glanced at Zhou Yusheng with some curiosity, and then asked pretending to be vague.

"Fighting test, five months later?" Zhou Yusheng muttered, the time of this fighting test is not comparable to the trial battle on the Twelve Peaks of the Holy Extreme, but according to what Qin Yuanhu said, all disciples who have been in the trial for two years must participate in this fighting test, which also means that after the trial battle, the fighting test is probably also a disguised test.

Just when Zhou Yusheng was a little distracted, Chen An couldn't help but show a trace of sympathy.

"If the junior brother is really here to prepare for the fight, I advise the junior brother to simply stay in the courtyard, the current Huainan is the most restless time of the year. Chen An shook his head and said.

"Oh? When Zhou Yusheng heard this, his heart moved.

"There has always been a saying that one year is a small one, and three years is a big one to one trial. Although this Xiaobi is a disciple of the outer courtyard himself, it is just a rough test of the cultivation of the disciples of the academy and the mastery of the secretary of the exercises, and then according to the situation, there will be a certain reward for the elders in the courtyard, although the benefits are not much, but it is the chief disciple of each sect who is confirmed to participate in the battle of the inner gate three years later, and whether it is Xiaobi or Dabi, Huainan will have many outsiders pouring into Huainan, because at this time of year, it is also the Three Kingdoms conscription ceremony, there are often mixed people who mix into Huainan, and this group of people is not lacking in the outside of Huainan, robbing official cars in mortal cities, killing people and setting fires, and snatching the rivers and lakes, specially picking disciples who go down the mountain to attack, coupled with unscrupulous killing methods, many disciples who go down the mountain die every year. ”

Chen An said in a solemn tone, looking frightened, and didn't seem to want to speak.

"I see, no wonder there were all monks from the Purple Mansion Realm during the descent from the mountain, it seems that during this period, only the monks of the Purple Mansion Realm have the ability to barely protect themselves. Zhou Yusheng nodded quietly, glanced around thoughtfully, in order to prevent unnecessary trouble, he did not exude the aura fluctuations of the Purple Mansion Realm to others.

"Because only the monks who are old and have no chance to step out of the Purple Mansion Realm in this life will choose to join the forces of the rivers and lakes, otherwise instead of living a day with a meal and no meal, it is better to be an elder in a certain family with peace of mind, and come to be comfortable. ”

Chen An sighed and said, in fact, as early as when Zhou Yusheng was talking to him, he used his divine sense to spy on Zhou Yusheng's cultivation from time to time, because Zhou Yusheng's age and there was no sign of vigorous qi and blood on his body, but Xuanfeng faintly had fluctuations to open up the tricks, so Chen An reminded Zhou Yusheng with a side tap.

"Thank you for your concern, but it is inevitable for my brother to go down the mountain this time. After listening to this, Zhou Yusheng thought about it for a while, and immediately thanked him sincerely.

"Haha, it's nothing, since the junior brother insists on going down the mountain, there must be a life-saving magic weapon on the junior brother, I just remind you a few words, remember to protect yourself, by the way, when you go to the routine task in the courtyard for a while, if you want to pick a good task, you must go to the Tianzi District, and then secretly give the assigned task deacon a little benefit, and then you can only get what you want. Chen An laughed and waved his hand at him, which was quite witty.

Zhou Yusheng smiled, thanked this "Senior Brother Chen" again, and joined a long line of people who were no longer stranded.
