Chapter 16: The Djinn Trial
When Dongfang Shuo and his master arrived at the main courtyard, the age measurement was almost over.
"Shuo'er. ”
Suddenly, a voice attracted Dongfang Shuo's attention.
At this time, a graceful woman who looked less than thirty years old from the outside came to Dongfang Shuo.
This woman is dressed in gorgeous clothes, and she is restrained and luxurious.
And her aura is calm and unfathomable, obviously not an ordinary person.
Although Dongfang Shuo hadn't seen the person in front of her in the past few days, she was obviously at least an elder or above.
"Senior sister. ”
Before the other party could speak, Dongfang Shuo's master beside him took the lead in calling him.
Dongfang Shuo immediately made up his mind.
He had done some understanding earlier, and there was only one person in the entire Heaven Dou Sect who could be called Senior Sister by his master.
That was the Deputy Sect Master, Chen Lanran.
"Deputy Sect Master. ”
Immediately, Dongfang Shuo also took the opportunity to call out.
"The age measurement is basically coming to an end, this is the list of those who remained, as well as their approximate backgrounds, cultivation, etc. ”
As he spoke, Chen Lanran handed out a few pieces of paper full of words to Dongfang Shuo, "After the scene is arranged, you, as the host, need to briefly describe the next arrangements to them." In addition, you can also decide some details for the later stages. ”
Dongfang Shuo took the pieces of paper and looked at them a few times.
Su Zhi, Dongfang Youling and Tan Yihai are all on it.
"This Tan Yihai is only fifteen years old?"
Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned.
But if you think about it carefully, this Tan Yihai was born in a famous family after all, and as the leader of a famous family, it is not surprising that he has such a dual cultivation of mind and iron bone realm at the age of fifteen.
At the same time, Dongfang Shuo is also completely sure that this Tan Yihai is worthy of his wooing.
"There are a lot of talented people in this year's session. ”
Dongfang Shuo's master leaned his head over, and unceremoniously flipped through the paper in Dongfang Shuo's hand, "But looking at it, it is still a fierce teacher, and there is no one who can compare to your little junior sister." ”
As she spoke, she was still very proud.
Dongfang Shuo glanced at her, and then cleaned up the paper in his hand again.
"Du Qingxue, if I remember correctly, I asked you to prepare the pill two months ago, right?"
At this moment, Chen Lanran stared at Dongfang Shuo's master with a face, and said in a slightly admonishing tone, "What about the pill?"
"This ......"
"Don't tell me, you used the money for refining medicine to buy wine again, right?"
"How dare I, senior sister!"
"Really?"
"Not a single silver coin has been misappropriated!"
"Oh, is it?" Chen Lanran nodded thoughtfully, "When will the pill be good?"
"Half a month, half a month at most!"
"Half a month?"
Chen Lanran narrowed his eyes, "Three days." ”
"Three days, too little, nine days!" Master Du Qingxue complained.
Chen Lanran: "Four days." ”
Du Qingxue: "Seven days!"
"Five days. ”
"Six days!"
"Deal. ”
Everything is under Chen Lanran's control.
Dongfang Shuo looked at the master who was being played with between his palms, and his head was also full of black lines.
"It's almost time. ”
Dongfang Shuo looked at the crowd that had begun to gather in the main courtyard, and put away the papers, "I'll take my leave first." ”
As he spoke, he was already walking forward.
"Senior sister, I'll also take my leave first. ”
Seeing this, Du Qingxue naturally thought about slipping away.
Chen Lanran nodded, and the former immediately turned around.
"That's right, Ah Xue. ”
But before Du Qingxue could take a step, Chen Lanran suddenly asked, "How much money did you spend to buy wine?"
"It's not much, it's only three hundred gold coins......"
Du Qingxue blurted out.
By the time she reacted, it was too late.
"Really?"
When Chen Lanran heard this answer, his bright eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit.
And on her incomparably pretty face, a layer of cold like thin ice has been coated.
"Senior sister, I'll go first!"
As soon as the words fell, Du Qingxue's footsteps took a step forward, and her body had already traveled a distance of dozens of zhang.
Dongfang Shuo, who had not gone far yet, listened to the conversation behind him, and he was also angry and funny.
Feelings, she proposed a bet of 300 gold coins in order to make up for the hole.
However, Dongfang Shuo's steps did not stop.
After a short time, he had already approached the place where the crowd had gathered in the main courtyard.
"Senior Brother Dongfang, you're finally back. ”
At this time, as soon as he approached, the licking dog junior brother had already come up, "I was just ordered by the elders to come back to you." ”
"yes, it's my turn to make the next arrangements, right?"
Dongfang Shuo asked.
Senior Brother Licking Dog nodded: "However, the situation of Senior Brother and Sister seems to be a little not optimistic." ”
"Ling'er, how is she?"
"Although it was nothing wrong with only hurting her flesh and skin, the elders had already made her take the pill. The junior brother said, "It's just that it will take some time for the injury to recover, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover to full strength today and tomorrow." ”
"Today and tomorrow?"
Dongfang Shuo was thoughtful.
According to Dongfang Shuo's understanding of Dongfang Youling in the past two days, she probably won't give up easily, and if she gives up this opportunity this time, then I'm afraid Dongfang Youling will not be able to win the Heaven Dou Sect in her life.
And if you go through the back door, it is even more impossible, Dongfang Youling mentioned to Dongfang Shuo several times that he 'has to rely on his own strength', which is undoubtedly openly and secretly expressing that he does not want Dongfang Shuo to help secretly, let alone let her enter the Heaven Dou Sect through the back door.
"That's good. ”
After thinking for a moment, Dongfang Shuo finally sighed.
At this time, Senior Brother Licking Dog suddenly took two steps closer: "Senior Brother Dongfang, are you worried about your sister's affairs?"
"What else can I worry about?"
"If that's the case, you can leave it to me, and I'll be able to relieve you. ”
"Really?" Dongfang Shuo was slightly stunned.
This dog-licking junior brother, is there really any extraordinary wisdom?
"Naturally, it will make up for your sister's disadvantage due to her injury. The dog licking brother patted his chest and said with an oath.
Dongfang Shuo didn't think much about it, just patted him on the shoulder: "Then please." ”
"Yes. ”
He answered, and immediately left the place.
Although he didn't know what he could do, Dongfang Shuo could only wait for good news.
As for that, Dongfang Shuo came to the side of several elders, and after some preparation, he stood in front of the remaining more than six hundred candidates after two stages.
"You have passed the previous two rounds of testing, and you have already preliminarily proved your ability, and those who can stand here must be the leaders of various places. Dongfang Shuo said loudly, "And what you will face next is only the last stage of the Heaven Dou Sect's wide opening of the mountain gate this time, and that is the trial of the Giant Spirit Mountain Range." ”
For a while, everyone was in an uproar.
The Giant Spirit Mountain Range is a vast mountain forest located in the north of the Heaven Dou Sect.
There is abundant spiritual energy, rich in elixirs, spirit stones and other natural treasures, and at the same time, the beasts in it have also learned to cultivate in the precipitation of the years, and have become demon beasts that can rival human monks.
It is also because there are demon beasts entrenched in the Giant Spirit Mountain Range, so although the Giant Spirit Mountain Range is a place full of treasures, it is also a dangerous place full of dangers.
"You will then be sent to the Djinn Mountains, and you will survive within the Djinn Mountains for seven days. Dongfang Shuo said, "This is the final screening of your comprehensive strength by the Heaven Dou Sect, but anyone who can hold on to the Seven Spirits Mountain Range for seven days will officially become a disciple of my Heaven Dou Sect!"
The last sentence was immediately inspiring.
However, there are still people who are worried about what will happen in the next seven days.
After all, the place they were going to was the Giant Spirit Mountain Range, which was full of monsters!
"Each of you will get a spare, and when you crush the spar at the critical moment, you will be immediately teleported back to the Heaven Dou Sect. ”
Dongfang Shuo said, "However, once you return to the Heaven Dou Sect, you will be disqualified, you must keep this in mind. In addition, the Heaven Dou Sect will distribute rations to each of you, but only for one day, and no one is allowed to bring any other supplies other than the rations distributed by the Heaven Dou Sect. ”
At this point, he paused deliberately.
"Once discovered, it will be removed directly. ”
As soon as the words fell, the excited expressions on everyone's faces also turned into solemnity and worry.
With only one day's food rations, it is undoubtedly a fatal problem.
In such a dangerous environment, if they still starve, the vast majority of people will probably be expelled.
And there are only two solutions to the food ration problem.
Or, from the Djinn Mountains.
Or, from someone else.
Obviously, the second option is more feasible for them.
"So, do you have any questions?"
Dongfang Shuo asked loudly.
The whole scene was silent, and no one spoke.
"Well, then I'm here, so I wish you all the best of luck. ”
Dongfang Shuo said that, he turned around and stepped down.
But when he looked around, he still didn't see the figure of the licking dog.
What did he come up with?
Dongfang Shuo couldn't help but be curious.
And when Dongfang Shuo finished making arrangements, under the arrangement of the elders, dozens of disciples of the Heaven Dou Sect stepped forward to guide the candidates.
In the valley between the main courtyard and Heaven Dou Peak, there was a rock platform of considerable scale.
On top of the platform, there is a stone gate.
The stone gate is connected to the platform, which looks a little quaint.
When Dongfang Shuo arrived here, a group of disciples had already entered the stone gate.
At this time, standing in front of the stone gate was Dongfang Youling.
"This is your supplies, and after you collect them, you can pass through the stone gate and go to the Djinn Mountains. At this time, a young disciple handed Dongfang Youling a ring.
Dongfang Youling handed over the ring and subconsciously glanced at it.
"Huh?"
There was a look of confusion on her face.
But before she could open her mouth to ask more, the young disciple who handed her the ring was pushed into the stone gate by the young disciple.
And Dongfang Shuo sees all this in his eyes.
That young disciple is the senior disciple of the dog licker.
"What the hell is he doing?" Dongfang Shuo wondered.
......
