Ran Hanchuan and Mu Ran's master and apprentice came to the road to Xiaofeng Mountain early.

The three men and the two beasts walked slowly, and after two hours, they came to the foot of Whistling Wind Mountain.

From a distance, Howling Wind Mountain looks like a sword piercing out of the mountain, and the mountain range runs from east to west, forming a convergence at the main peak of the land, and in the middle of the mountains, another mountain peak proudly stabs out of it.

Outside the mountain, a large number of people gathered, all lingering in front of the foot of the mountain. This is the first level of the entry trial of Howling Wind Mountain, "Climbing the Mountain".

Only if you can enter the periphery of Howling Wind Mountain, walk out of it, and reach the outside of the mountain gate, can you really reach Xuanyu Pavilion. If you can't even reach the mountain gate, then you don't need to participate in future trials. During the period of recruiting disciples, every day when it was almost dusk, there would be disciples of Xuanyu Pavilion who would pick up the young man who was wandering outside the mountain.

Coming to the foot of the mountain, Mu Ran said to Ran Hanchuan: "Xiao Hanchuan, go from here to the top of the Howling Wind Mountain, and when you arrive at the mountain gate, you can start the real test, come on!" ”

Ran Hanchuan took a deep breath and said, "Thank you Mu Ran seniors, the juniors will definitely do their best!" ”

Broken Moon Han patted Ran Hanchuan's shoulder with a smile and said, "Little brother, don't be nervous!" My master just loves to be serious, you see, isn't it just climbing a mountain, how difficult is it? ”

Ran Hanchuan also smiled and made a victory gesture, while Mu Ran glared at Broken Moon Han noncommittally.

"Senior Mu, Brother Duan, then I'll set off now!" Ran Hanchuan said to the two.

"Good! See you in the mountains, little brother! Broken Moon Han gave a hearty smile of encouragement and gave Ran Hanchuan a thumbs up.

"Hmm!"

Seeing Ran Hanchuan enter the mountains and forests, looking at his growing back, bulging bags, and the blue-black long sword, Mu Ran whispered to Broken Moon Han: "Seeing this little brother, I thought of an old man. ”

Broken Moon Han is also a bright and intelligent person in his heart, and he is transparent at a point, and asks: "The old man that the master said is not his deceased parents?" ”

Mu Ran nodded lightly, "You're smart." ”

"But, master, why don't you tell your little brother?" Broken Moon Han seemed to care about Ran Hanchuan's little brother, and his voice was a little urgent.

"Hey!" Mu Ran sighed and said, "It's okay if you don't know about some things. Ran Hanchuan is like a blank sheet of paper for his current age, if some things are known too early, they will only leave a heavy stroke on this blank paper, a stroke that can never be erased. It wasn't for his upbringing. ”

"But since you know, master, then others may know it too! What if someone else told the little brother..."Broken Moon Han understood, and asked worriedly.

Mu Ran shook his head and said, "His father was also a person from Xuanyu Pavilion, and his future master in the sect naturally understands this truth, besides..." Mu Ran paused, his eyes suddenly became solemn.

"Besides, what I know may not be known by others."

"What the master knows, not necessarily what others know?" Broken Moon Han was a little puzzled.

"Okay, there are some things that should not be said more, it's not too early, we should go up the mountain." Mu Ran walked forward slowly, and said softly: "I always feel that something is wrong these days. ”

Broken Yuehan hurriedly followed and asked, "What's wrong with the master?" ”.

"I have a bad premonition, and I don't know..."Mu Ran hesitated and thought for a while, and then smiled: "Forget it, it's nothing, take one step at a time, why bother so much!" ”

"Hehe, the master is right! When things are at the worst they will mend. ”

Mu Ran suddenly turned his head and looked at Broken Moon Han behind him, Broken Moon Han was stunned for a moment, and his footsteps stopped. Mu Ran said: "Yuehan, you remember, if you just want to be like a teacher, idle clouds and wild cranes, and enjoy the world, you can get by like now, and be content with the present." But one day, if you want to become a real strong person, you must not be like this, you must not care about everything, you must learn to take care of the overall situation, and you must look at the long-term beyond others! ”

"Uh... Yes, disciple remember! Broken Moon Han was suddenly a little overwhelmed, and he didn't understand why the master suddenly wanted to say this.

"Yue Han, do you know what a strong man is?"

"Of course I do! A strong person is like a master, martial arts, fame and wisdom are all first-class! ”

"Wrong!" Mu Ran's voice, which had always been flat, suddenly became stern, "The real strong man must be able to do it, not these, these may also be there, but it is only a way to become a strong man." A real strong person is one who can control the fate of others, and even more so, he must be able to control his own destiny! ”

"Uh..."Broken Moon Han's whole body shook, pondering this teaching carefully.

"You know what I'm referring to? In the Southern Regions, there is one that can do this. Mu Ran's eyes narrowed and he said lightly.

Broken Moon raised his head coldly, there was a kind of horror in his eyes, he heard what the master meant, there was not only something to refer to, but also something to do!

"Could it be..."

"Yes, just remember!" Mu Ran walked away with his sleeves and continued to walk towards the mountain, and said slowly: "If you want to be a strong person, your eyes must always look farther than yourself, and your thoughts and worries will always be more than your own thoughts!" ”

Broken Moon Han was shaken, and he stopped in place and stopped moving, but Mu Ran had gradually moved away.

I don't know how long it was, and I don't know the time in the mountains and forests, Broken Moon Han's eyes flashed with a look of enlightenment, but his expression was quite solemn, and the kitten next to him suddenly jumped on his shoulder, Broken Moon was silent, and suddenly turned into a white light, galloping towards the mountain.

Xuanyu Pavilion, standing on the top of the Howling Wind Mountain, was founded more than 2,100 years ago.

The founding patriarch is named "Feng Zhenyang".

Feng Zhenyang was a ranger when he was young, a young talent, legend has it that he was excellent in swordsmanship at a young age, and he also had a resounding reputation in the rivers and lakes.

Feng Zhenyang is a good sword idiot, in order to seek the ultimate of swordsmanship, he visits the mountains everywhere to seek the way. One day, when Feng Zhenyang passed by a group of mountains, he found that the mountain was like a sword piercing out of a hole. He was obsessed with a good sword, and he couldn't help but be curious and went up the mountain.

These mountains are now known as Howling Wind Mountain.

Howling Wind Mountain has a howling wind around the mountain all year round, and the sound is like thunder, and the mighty is unrestrained.

According to legend, Feng Zhenyang found the source of the wind in a valley, and stood on a prominent stone cliff in the valley for three days and three nights, and realized a set of elegant and sharp swordsmanship in the wind, and realized the true meaning of the wind from it.

Another year later, the wind shook the sun and howled the wind, fought the rivers and lakes, killed all the enemies and eliminated the evil, and became famous in the world, becoming the most popular figure at that time.

At that time, there were only four major sects in the Southern Regions, and when they heard about this, they all threw branches to Feng Zhenyang.

However, Feng Zhenyang ignored this, and legend has it that he visited the four major sects one by one, and discussed with the elders of each sect, but the words of victory and defeat are unknown, but it is rumored that Feng Zhenyang alone picked the four major sects.

After that, Feng Zhenyang's fame had reached its peak, and he also had the heart to start a sect when he was bored. It was 2,100 years ago that Feng Zhenyang established the Xuanyu Pavilion on the Howling Wind Mountain, where he had comprehended the true skill of swordsmanship.

On the occasion of the creation of Xuanyu Pavilion, the heroes of the rivers and lakes and the four major sects all came to celebrate and congratulate them.

At that time, the wind shook the sun, high-spirited, standing on the high-rise building of Xuanyu Pavilion at the beginning, facing visitors from all directions, calm and relaxed, facing the wind calmly, that look, after the poet praised:

The jade building listens to the wind and green silk, and the clouds are rising!

As a result, the main building of Xuanyu Pavilion has since been named "Tingfeng Building".

After a thousand years, there were many amazing and gorgeous people in Xuanyu Pavilion, and in the hands of Mu Kongyou, a disciple of the ninth generation more than a thousand years ago, he opened up five peaks around the main peak of Xiaofeng Mountain, and developed into the first floor of the Five Pavilions.

More than a thousand years have passed, and in this life, Xuanyu Pavilion has become the place where the world-famous immortal family is, the place where countless people yearn for the master, and it is also one of the five major sects of the Optimus Pillar in the Southern Regions.

Now that it's time for Xuanyu Pavilion to accept apprentices, Ran Hanchuan has embarked on this introductory trial journey with great ambition.

Although these things are very familiar to Ran Hanchuan, there are exceptions.

In the direction where the mountain gate is located, Xuanyu Pavilion has actually made a mark at the foot of the mountain. Ran Hanchuan recognized the direction of the mountain gate, and walked towards the mountain with a full heart.

The steep and undulating mountain road is a common thing for Ran Hanchuan, but before he has walked long, a layer of fog suddenly appears in the mountain.

The faint mist surrounded his feet, Ran Hanchuan walked deeper and deeper, and the mist slowly covered his knees, until it was completely covered by the white mist, and he no longer knew when he was in the world, and he no longer knew where he was.

In this fog, the visibility is definitely less than three feet, and now Ran Hanchuan finally knows why this mountain is actually a test. It's not easy to find the right direction in such a fog, not to mention that the people who come to the test are teenagers.

Ran Hanchuan, who was walking, suddenly thought: "Huh? No, since I'm going up the mountain, can't I follow the ups and downs of the mountain? Just thinking like this, Ran Hanchuan found that his feet were as flat as if he were walking on the ground!

In this strange situation, after walking for a long time, Ran Hanchuan found that he was completely confused, so he simply sat down and thought carefully.

Could it be a formation? Ran Hanchuan suddenly thought that he liked to read, and he covered a wide range of things, and he liked some mysterious things, one of which was called "I Ching".

Legend has it that one of the three emperors in ancient times Fu Xi created the gossip, and some people say that it was the sixteen trigrams that were handed down instead of the gossip, but the other eight trigrams were lost, leaving only the existing gossip today, which was compiled into a book by the ancient sages, which was the "Book of Changes" or "Zhou Yi".

In the Book of Changes, there is an overview of the gossip, and Ran Hanchuan is also quite interested in it.

"Fog should be regarded as the way of water and fire in the Five Elements," Ran Hanchuan muttered in a low voice: "Bagua Likan is water, the hexagram of the north; Separation is fire, the hexagram of the south. ”

Ran Hanchuan fell into Tuan Tuantuan's confusion again, the two directions of north and south are diametrically opposed directions, how to find the direction?

Ran Hanchuan pondered to no avail, so he had to take one step at a time.

"The north and south must be the source of this fog, and the thicker the fog, the closer it must be to the source of the fog." Ran Hanchuan muttered to himself, then carefully looked at the fog around him, looked around, left and right, and then identified the side with the thickest fog and walked carefully.

In front of me is a white expanse, and the whole body is also white and I don't know the depth. Ran Hanchuan didn't know how long he had been walking, he only knew that the fog in front of him was getting thicker and thicker, and there were fewer and fewer places to see in his eyes, until he could only see the white mist in front of him, even if he was standing on the ground, he could no longer see it, only his body.

If the world of the blind is pitch black, the world in front of Ran Hanchuan is now white, there is nothing else except the fog, compared with the blind, except for black and white, there is almost no difference. The fog in front of him, Ran Hanchuan felt like he was about to turn into a substantial object, as if he had been stuffed into a full cotton load.

"Ah" Ran Hanchuan shouted bitterly, this is the fifth time he has knocked down the tree trunk, speaking of which, in this fog, he can't see anything, after walking for so long, only knocking down the tree trunk five times, Ran Hanchuan is already quite proud.

Touching the forehead that had been hit, and taking a dozen steps forward, Ran Hanchuan suddenly felt that the fog in front of him seemed to fade a little.

Could it be that it was just the center of this fog? Ran Hanchuan was suddenly startled, and hurriedly took more than a dozen steps back according to Fang Cai's steps, and found the tree in the middle of the mess.

"This is the source of the fog, so where do I go?" Ran Hanchuan furrowed his little eyebrows and thought carefully. At this moment, Xiao Qing, who had been hanging in his bag and recuperating, suddenly rubbed on Ran Hanchuan's shoulder.

"Xiaoqing, what are you doing?" Ran Hanchuan looked at Xiaoqing, and Xiaoqing pointed in one direction.

Ran Hanchuan was puzzled in his heart, and walked in that direction, and at this time, he was engrossed in it and felt a kind of wind.

"Is it the wind?" Ran Hanchuan looked at Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing nodded, and then got back into the package.

"In the direction of the formation gossip, Xun is the wind, the southeast hexagram, then this wind is blowing like the northwest, I understand!" Ran Hanchuan suddenly realized, "The mountain gate of Xuanyu Pavilion is in the northwest, I just need to walk in the direction where the wind blows!" ”

With that, Ran Hanchuan immediately began to feel the wind carefully, and walked slowly in the direction where the wind was blowing.

Walking through the thickest fog and walking past the tree, Ran Hanchuan thought about it, left a small mark on the tree, and walked for a long time, and found that the fog around him began to fade.

"Haha, it seems that I have found the right way, and I am about to go to the mountain gate!"

Ran Hanchuan's footsteps couldn't help but speed up a lot, and after another moment, he really walked out of the thick fog, but he immediately froze.

Ahead is the way down the mountain!

Ran Hanchuan's eyes were full of disbelief, but the facts were right in front of him, so he couldn't believe it.

What went wrong? Ran Hanchuan was even more puzzled.

Walking out of the fog, he found that the sky was already dark, Ran Hanchuan felt that he was also hungry, and he had the idea of thinking about it tomorrow if he couldn't figure it out, so he camped on the spot.

The next day, early in the morning.

Ran Hanchuan set off early to go to the thick fog and came to the center of the fog, in front of the tree that left a mark.

"Why not?" Ran Hanchuan pondered, "Shouldn't the wind come from the southeast and blow to the northwest?" But that's how it should be in the formation! Or is this not a formation at all? ”

Feeling the breeze swimming past him, Ran Hanchuan gradually became stunned.

"Ahh Ran Hanchuan sighed: "Howling Wind Mountain, Xuanyu Pavilion Mountain Gate, where is it!" ”

Suddenly, Ran Hanchuan's eyes lit up.

"Howling Wind Mountain! That's right! I know, Howling Wind Mountain, because there is a howling wind blowing from the mountains all year round, so it got its name, so this wind blows from the mountain! I should go in the direction of the wind source! That must be the mountain gate! ”

Thinking of it, Ran Hanchuan began to march towards the source of the wind.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Ran Hanchuan only felt that his legs seemed to start complaining to him, and looking at the still thick fog in front of him, he began to wonder if his judgment was wrong again.

Thinking so, he hadn't taken a few steps before he crashed into a tree trunk.

Ran Hanchuan covered his head, touched the trunk of this tree, and felt some uneven marks in his hand, and looked closely, it turned out to be the mark he left on the tree in the center of the mist!

"It can't be!" Ran Hanchuan couldn't believe it, he didn't walk fast, but he could be sure that he must have walked in a straight line, but now, he actually returned to the center of the fog bizarrely, how could he not be confused in his heart.

Ran Hanchuan's heart stirred for a while before he calmed down, and began to feel that his donkey skills were exhausted, he had no clues, no methods, and he didn't know where to think, let alone where to find the mountain gate.

After wandering around the center of the fog for a while, Ran Hanchuan found another tree. This is nothing, in the mountains and forests, it is strange that there are no trees, but it is precisely because of this that Ran Hanchuan suddenly shook his whole body, and he remembered that in the huge area of this fog center, it seems that he has only encountered these two trees!

Sensing the strangeness of this matter, Ran Hanchuan began to take this tree as the center, and explored around again, and every few dozen steps, he retreated according to the pace of progress. Soon, in a certain direction of this tree, a dozen paces away, he found another tree on which he had left his mark.

"What is this?" Ran Hanchuan carefully observed these two trees, felt them carefully with his hands, and suddenly found that this was not a tree at all!

He was in the fog, he couldn't see clearly, almost everything he saw was white, he had just taken it for granted that it was a tree, but now when he looked closely, he found that the touch of this thing did not look like a tree, but more like a rough stone.

He found that these were two stone pillars, because he tried to hold them himself, and found that they were exactly the same size, both of them were the size he just held onto, and when he looked closely, there seemed to be some carvings on the stone pillars.

"Could it be that Ran Hanchuan had a bold assumption in his heart.

He estimated the distance, walked between the two stone pillars, and then lay on the ground, and suddenly felt that the solidity of the ground was definitely not the land in the mountains, and the tentacles were clearly hard stone bricks.

Just as Ran Hanchuan was amazed by his discovery, a clear voice sounded in his ears.

"Congratulations to this little brother for finding the mountain gate!"
