I felt a blur in front of my eyes, and my head was still slightly painful. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Ran Hanchuan stumbled out of the Howling Wind Valley step by step.

"Well, are you alright?" A shy voice sounded in Ran Hanchuan's mind. Ran Hanchuan turned his head to look, but his eyes were still very blurry.

"What's wrong with you? Be careful. That voice appeared in Ran Hanchuan's ears again, and this time, he could tell that it was a girl's voice. Ran Hanchuan was in a trance, and felt a pair of small hands holding his arm. The little hands held him and didn't know where to go, Ran Hanchuan felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, for some reason, maybe he was really tired, he was supported by these little hands, and he didn't think about where he would take himself.

"You can rest here!" Hearing the concern in this voice, Ran Hanchuan felt his back against the solid rock wall, Ran Hanchuan nodded, at least, he felt that he had made such an action, and then, his little hands slowly supported him and sat down slowly against the rock wall.

The blurred vision was shrouded in darkness again, and when he closed his eyes, Ran Hanchuan seemed to fall asleep.

Outside the valley, under the lonely pine, the old man sitting cross-legged looked at the dozen teenagers gathered in front of him, as if he was looking for something, but the result seemed to be quite disappointed, and he shook his head. At this time, in the Valley of Howling Wind, a figure suddenly appeared, and a disciple of Xuanyu Pavilion actually rode the wind and quickly fell towards the old man from the air.

"Xiao Fang, what's the matter, in a hurry?" Seeing the middle-aged disciple fall to the ground and raise a layer of smoke, the old man frowned slightly and asked.

"Uncle Shi, the younger generation has lost his temper." The young man lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said hurriedly: "My nephew has something urgent!" ”

"What's wrong?"

The middle-aged disciple took a deep breath and said, "I am in the Howling Wind Valley, responsible for taking care of the little brothers, and sending those teenagers who can't hold on and lose their way out of the valley, but not long ago, the aura of five teenagers suddenly disappeared!" ”

"What?" The old man's eyelids widened, and the wrinkles between his eyebrows suddenly unfolded, and the old man looked at the young men sitting cross-legged on both sides, and said, "You two go over with your Uncle Fang to have a look." ”

"Yes, Master." The two young disciples stood up at the old man, the middle-aged disciple nodded, and a strong breeze surrounded him, the middle-aged disciple rose with the wind and went straight to the valley, while the other two young disciples also followed.

Although the young man on the side didn't know the reason for this, he looked at the disciples of Xuanyu Pavilion who were hundreds of miles away in an instant, and his eyes were full of envy.

The old man sighed and thought to himself, "But don't let anything happen."

After trying a few times, I finally stretched my eyelids and rubbed my eyes, and a girl's slightly surprised voice sounded at this time.

"You're awake!"

In front of Ran Hanchuan, a teenage girl was squatting in front of him, looking at him with a smile. The girl's body is thin and her skin is a little yellowish, which should be caused by a lack of nutrition. The girl's face is not bad, but there is nothing special about it, except for the two small braids on the back of her head, which look quite cute.

"Uh." Ran Hanchuan felt that his mouth was dry, and he was stared at by this little girl, and he blushed a little for a while, and it took a long time to hold back a word.

"Haha, you're thirsty! Here you go. The girl handed over a kettle, Ran Hanchuan smiled embarrassedly, but the kettle, after only taking a sip, actually bottomed out.

"Oh, it's gone!" The girl took the kettle and looked at it, "I guess it ran out when I washed your hands just now." ”

"Wash your hands?" Ran Hanchuan was stunned and asked, why did she wash my hands?

"yes, you know, your hands stinked just now, I don't know what it is, I wasted a lot of effort to clean it up for you!" The girl elaborated on the matter very seriously.

"Uh, hehe, maybe, this, I don't know very well!" Ran Hanchuan didn't know what was going on, facing the girl's serious expression, he felt that his face seemed to be a little hot.

"Me, what's wrong?" Ran Hanchuan asked puzzled, while flipping through the memories in his mind, but he only remembered the shameful scene when he was knocked to the ground by five teenagers, and suddenly a nameless fire in his heart was about to rise, and suddenly, he remembered the hands when he was in a trance, and looked at the girl in front of him, and his mood gradually calmed down again.

"I don't know, the way you used to be, you walked staggeringly, as if you were going to fall down at any moment." The girl recalled.

What's going on? Ran Hanchuan had a lot of questions in his heart, and when he thought about it, he felt that his head was big for a while.

"You, what's your name?" Ran Hanchuan looked at the girl in front of him, and he didn't know how to speak, counting carefully, the girl Ran Hanchuan has grown up to this day, and the girl he has come into contact with is nothing more than Sun Qing, the little sister in Yunlai Village. As for the three years in Zixuan Tower, almost all of the people he came into contact with were businessmen and nobles, and they were all big men.

"How can you casually ask a girl's name, how rude!" The girl's appearance looked a little angry.

"Uh..." Ran Hanchuan was stunned for a moment, and then continued to snort.

"Poof" Looking at Ran Hanchuan's appearance, the girl sneered and said, "Well, just kidding, you can call me Xiaotian." ”

"Xiaotian?"

"Hmm!" The girl pouted, smiled and nodded.

"This is the name my mother gave me!"

Ran Hanchuan said very seriously: "Xiaotian, thank you." ”

This girl named Xiaotian didn't know Ran Hanchuan, but she helped herself when she was in trouble, and she didn't know how long she was by her side, such a kind little girl made Ran Hanchuan grateful in his heart.

"Mmmm, it's nothing, what's your name, little brother?" Xiaotian said with a smile.

Ran Hanchuan's face was grim, and he said slowly: "Xiaotian, you are a girl, how unreserved you are to ask a boy's name so casually!" ”

"You!" Xiao Tian was angry, his bright eyes glared at Ran Hanchuan, and pointed at Ran Hanchuan and said, "Villain!" ”

"Haha, I'm kidding you too!" Ran Hanchuan laughed.

"I know! But it's not funny. ”

"Uh..."

"And what exactly is your name?"

Ran Hanchuan's little eyes rolled, and he said with a smile: "You can call me Xiaochuan." ”

"Ogawa? Is this also a milk name? ”

"Uh-huh" Ran Hanchuan nodded "seriously".

"Brother Xiaochuan, do you know, you are so heavy!"

"Huh?" Heavy? Am I fat? Ran Hanchuan thought to himself, and looked at his little arm.

"Yes! It's so heavy, it's so heavy, I can't help you if I want to! Xiao Tian recalled.

Could it be? Ran Hanchuan glanced at the long sword he was carrying behind him, and couldn't help but think of the actual weight of this sword. Could it be that this sword doesn't feel any weight except when I use it myself, but the actual weight has always been blessed on me? No wonder, although I felt strained in the strong winds of Howling Valley, I was not blown down or even swept away by the strong winds.

Suddenly, Ran Hanchuan thought that he had this strange long sword to bless his body, but how did the thin little girl in front of him get out of this windy valley on her own?

"Xiaotian, the wind in the valley is so strong, how did you get here?"

Xiao Tianda's little eyes blinked, and he said mischievously: "This is my secret!" ”

Ran Hanchuan was speechless for a while, it seems that the little girl in front of her also has her own reliance, and those who come to participate in the trial really have some ability. Thinking of this, Ran Hanchuan couldn't help but think of Xiaoqing again. Xiaoqing's small body, why is there nothing to do in such a strong wind. As he thought, he looked around.

"Huh? What about Xiaoqing? Ran Hanchuan suddenly realized that Xiaoqing was gone!

"Xiaoqing?"

"It's a little blue wolf."

"Ahh It turned out to be a little wolf, I thought it was a puppy! Xiaotian was quite surprised and said, "No wonder, the cyan puppy, it's weird." ”

"Ha, haha, Xiaoqing is still young, it's not strange to say that she looks like a puppy, do you know where she went?"

Xiaotian recalled: "Well, it followed you when I was holding you, and later, I don't know when it disappeared." ”

"Xiaoqing" Ran Hanchuan frowned, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, she's fine, she came back to me by herself, she won't be okay if I have something!" Xiaoqing is very powerful! ”

"The little wolf? I really don't see it, hehe. Xiao Tian smiled a little mischievously.

In the heavy mountains, beside the ancient road, the wind is scarce, and the sun is shining. Young people, laughing at each other, meet at this time, but they don't know if it is the day of farewell. Who knows how many vicissitudes of the world have been experienced by the original people when they meet again.

In the Valley of Howling Wind, Xiao Qing didn't know what he was stirring up, and suddenly, the howling wind was disturbed by an external force, and it scurried around, and in the air, three figures slid in front of Xiao Qing's eyes in an instant. Xiao Qing's green eyes took a deep look at the three figures, and then walked out of the valley.

Outside the Valley of the Howling Winds, which is the end of this first level of trial, the inversion of the sunset heralds the end of this trial. Under the lonely pine, the old man sitting cross-legged opened his eyes and looked at the two teenagers walking from the Howling Wind Valley in front of him. For some reason, the old man's eyes were deeply attracted by one of the boys, especially behind the boy, a blue-black sheathed long sword, simple and vicissitudes, the old man stared at this sword, and his face showed a rare look called reminiscence or regret, and it seemed to carry a kind of expectation.

On the contrary, next to the boy, the thin little girl with pigtails and thin yellow did not pay much attention.

"Yo, Ran Hanchuan, you also passed!" The little fat man named Mi Li beckoned to Ran Hanchuan.

"Hmph, that's slow." The frivolous and arrogant boy also looked at him.

Ran Hanchuan nodded at Mi Li with a smile, and said to the young man: "No matter how fast or slow, everyone has the same result anyway, thanks to you for waiting for me for so long!" ”

"Cut" The arrogant young man snorted, and he didn't seem to bother to argue with Ran Hanchuan about anything.

The conversation between the few people, and the two new arrivals, also caught the attention of the other teenagers who passed through Howling Wind. Among them, there is also a girl in white who looks at this.

The girl's clothes are snow-white, a white belt with gold rimmed around her waist outlines the young man's slender waist, a clean and pretty little face, and long hair over the shoulders.

When the girl looked over, it happened that Ran Hanchuan's gaze also met it. Looking at each other, Ran Hanchuan's heart jumped, and he was suffocated, but for a short moment, he felt that time passed very slowly, and the feeling of suffocation made his brain blank.

"Hey!" Xiao Tian saw that Ran Hanchuan looked like he was in a state of despair, and the whole person was fixed there like a piece of wood, and he couldn't help but laugh, and shouted in his ear.

"Huh?"

"Ahhhh What happened to you? Xiao Tian asked.

"I reckon his soul just got out of his shell." Mi Li laughed on the side.

"Uh, uh?" Ran Hanchuan was at a loss for a moment.

"You can't be the one who has your eye on that sister, right?" Xiaotian said mischievously.

"What do you say, don't talk nonsense!" Ran Hanchuan said a little annoyed, and suddenly felt that his face was a little hot.

"Look, I'm blushing!" This is Mi Li's ill-intentioned joke.

"Wow, I'm really blushing!" This is Xiao Tian clapping his hands and laughing happily.

"Humph!" The frivolous and arrogant teenager on the side disdained this.

As a result, Ran Hanchuan felt that his face was stinging even hotter. Having said that, Ran Hanchuan was also very strange in his heart, what happened to him just now? What's that, very strange feeling?

When Ran Hanchuan looked at the girl in white again, the girl's gaze had already turned away. Seeing this, he also breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly wondered, what am I nervous about?

Thinking wildly in his heart, Ran Hanchuan observed the surroundings, in addition to himself, there were fourteen teenagers gathered here, that is to say, among the several teenagers who participated in the first level trial, only fifteen of them passed this level. While observing these teenagers, Ran Hanchuan inadvertently saw that not far away, under a lone pine, there was an old man sitting cross-legged, and this old man seemed to be looking at him.

Am I dazzled, right? Ran Hanchuan thought so, but soon, the old man smiled at him and nodded at the same time. Looking at the age of this old man, he must be an old man in Xuanyu Pavilion, such a senior actually smiled at himself, what is going on?

"Whew" in the air, three winds exploded, fifteen teenagers were startled at the same time, looking into the sky, only to see three figures, whistling, so fast, in the blink of an eye, flew from a distance to the old man's body.

The old man sitting cross-legged stood up, patted the dust on his clothes, looked at the middle-aged man in his eyes and the two young men behind him, his face was serious, and the old man frowned and said, "How?" ”

The middle-aged man said, "The five teenagers whose breath disappeared are dead. The last two words are very stiff, although the middle-aged man himself is used to killing, but it is the battle of the people in the cultivator, the fight of the rivers and lakes. But now, among the children who came to participate in the trial, five of them actually died in the mountain gate of Xuanyu Pavilion, and the spread of this matter will definitely affect Xuanyu Pavilion's reputation in the world, after all, how can anyone who is an elder rest assured that his junior will go to a place where his life is in danger of entering the trial. Perhaps, when we recruit disciples again in five years, there will be a lot less students.

The old man pondered for a while and said, "I know what you're worried about, the path of cultivation is extremely difficult and dangerous, and it is inevitable that there will be deaths and injuries. And those who really understand this, their children will not be afraid of a mere trial, and the missing students are basically those ordinary families. However, it is very difficult for children from ordinary families to have a chance to be selected when they participate in the introductory trials of my five major schools. It can also be a good thing for this to get out, and it can help us delete a group of children with ordinary qualifications, so we don't have to worry about it. You must know that the tenacity of life of a good seed cannot prevent it from taking root and germinating even if the harshness of the desert is harsh. ”

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your teachings." ”

"Well, tell me what you've discovered."

"Yes, my nephew found the bodies of those five teenagers in three places in Howling Wind Valley. Although they are scattered in different places, I can be sure that it was one person and at the same time. ”

"Oh?" The old man's eyes were full of vicissitudes, and he narrowed slightly, and motioned for the middle-aged disciple to continue.

"Because I was at the same time, barely twenty breaths, I felt the breath of these five teenagers disappear in succession. Besides, the wounds of these five teenagers are all claw marks, and when I say it, I feel that it is more like the work of wild beasts. ”

"Beasts?" The old man glanced at the fifteen teenagers not far away, and said, "In this trial, are there any beasts with them?" ”

"No," replied the middle-aged man, thinking for a moment, and then adding, "However, there is a teenager who has brought a blue puppy, but I haven't looked closely, and I can't be sure of the kind." ”

"Oh, who?"

"Senior Brother Ran's son." The middle-aged man paused and said.

The old man's expression changed, he looked at Ran Hanchuan who was laughing in the distance, sighed and said, "This matter is strange, let's press it down first." As for the families of the five teenagers, take care of the aftermath, and do your best if you want something. ”

"It's just that those five teenagers are all descendants of the Shangguan family, and one of them is still the heir of the Shangguan family, how to deal with the aftermath of this matter."

"What?" The old man's expression changed again, how long had it been since he had such a big mood swing, and in such a short period of time, an old face had changed several times, and he couldn't help but curse in his heart.

The old man sighed again and said: "Since it is a member of the Shangguan family, and it is, hey, it seems that this matter is destined to be ungood, on the side of the Shangguan family, Li sent someone to appease him, in addition," the old man paused, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and continued: "You immediately send a disciple to inform the Jiangnan branch of the Shangguan family about this matter." ”

"Uncle Shi, what do you mean?" The middle-aged man was shocked and looked at the old man in amazement.

"Well, since this matter can't be good, for the sake of my Xuanyu Pavilion, I can't take care of it so much, after all, safeguarding the interests of this sect is the top priority. The people who split up their families know what to do. ”

Ran Hanchuan and Xiaotian, Mi Li were laughing and talking, and the frivolous young man on the side, with arrogance on his face, seemed to disdain to talk to others, but Ran Hanchuan found that he had been listening to the conversation between the three of them.

At this time, the old man in the distance walked slowly towards everyone, followed by two young disciples, and the middle-aged disciple he had seen earlier was nowhere to be found.

The old man glanced at the fifteen teenagers, nodded, and said, "Children, congratulations on passing the first level of the trial, but the more difficult test is still to come, you have to continue to work hard." ”

All the teenagers bowed their hands one after another, and said in unison: "Yes." ”

"It's late today, the children will rest here for a night, and tomorrow the second level of the trial will begin, besides, have you seen these five teenagers?" As he spoke, the old man's finger swiped in the void, and in the air, five slightly blurred faces appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which surprised everyone, especially Ran Hanchuan.

"I, I've seen it." Ran Hanchuan replied.

The old man glanced at Ran Hanchuan and said, "Everyone rest here first, you come with me." After the old man finished speaking, he motioned for the two young disciples behind him to stay behind and take care of the young men, while he turned around and left.

"Oh." Ran Hanchuan answered, and followed the old man to the side with apprehension. Those five teenagers, what's wrong? He wondered.

Coming to the side, the old man turned his back to Ran Hanchuan, his voice became serious, and said, "Do you know? The five children died. ”

"Huh?" Ran Hanchuan was shocked.
