The next day, the first batch of grain from Mary Trading House was finally delivered to the Golden Cicada Temple, the warehouse in the temple was not large, and 10,000 bags of 100 catties of grain could not be put in even if the warehouse was about to burst.

Yixiu stood in the temple by the edge of one large, two small, and two granaries, and looked down from the top of the warehouse, but saw that under the horizontal plank, the white rice had reached the edge of the top of the warehouse and could no longer be loaded.

However, there were still bags of grain that were constantly being transported up the mountain, and immediately, Yixiu ordered Yifeng to temporarily transfer the grain sent to the vacant warehouse of the water plant, and then it was also transported like this, so that the matter of buying grain was temporarily solved in a proper way.

After another day, it will be the day when the disciples of the Golden Cicada Temple will test their perseverance and physique.

Early in the morning, someone ran up the mountain beating gongs and drums.

The last time I did well in the exam, I wore a big red flower on my chest, and I was surrounded by everyone and came to the mountain gate, which was really a joyful atmosphere.

Approaching eight o'clock, two wooden doors were slowly pushed open from the middle, and Yixiu led a group of people from the Golden Cicada Temple out of the mountain gate, standing under the high steps, looking down at the people below, and said loudly.

"Amitabha, the poor monk is here to say good morning to all the benefactors!"

Immediately, everyone's discussion stopped abruptly, and they immediately looked at Yixiu from afar, bent down and saluted and said in unison, "Master, morning." ”

After some sincere politeness, Ichitake got to the point.

"Today is the second exam set up by my Golden Cicada Temple in order to select disciples, and it is still the usual practice that my eldest apprentice Wukong will take the test to the examination site, and the rest of the donors will also move to the dining hall to watch the exam with the poor monks. ”

After that, Wukong took the lead in walking out from behind Yixiu, taking the examiner first, and Yixiu, Liuxin and others then came to the dining hall with the rest of the people.

But today's little different is to come here to watch the assessment, but there are more than yesterday's people, which is already a little crowded The dining hall is squeezed out!

Fortunately, after the people were seated, the six hearts were properly commanded, so there were no accidents.

But seeing that Ichishu was surrounded by hundreds of people, he sat cross-legged for more than ten minutes, and then he opened his eyes and glanced at Wujing next to him.

Immediately, Wujing took out a dream of yellow sorghum incense, scooped half a spoonful of incense and poured it into the copper tripod in front of him.

The next moment, layers of turbulent smoke appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the fairy sound in their ears was faint, and they heard the sound of blowing the big magic conch and hitting the big law drum.

When the smoke condensed, I saw that there was a large platform for the smoke, and more than 120 people stood to take the exam.

Subsequently, the scene expanded countless times, and the examiner stood on the platform and looked up at the road ahead, and he could see one after another hanging jade steps, stretching up a mountain and reaching into the sky.

At the top of the first section of the jade steps, a golden dragon holds a jade plaque in its mouth and constantly hovers in place, and the jade plaque has three big characters written in red cinnabar, "Ascending the ladder".

"Climbing the ladder??", the assessors looked at the jade plaque in front of them, as well as the step-by-step steps that stretched into the clouds, a little unclear.

What puzzled them the most was that they didn't have no memory at all like the last time, but knew that they were here to participate in the entrance assessment of the Golden Cicada Temple, and they just forgot what the content of the test was.

And as the onlookers with God's perspective, when they saw the steps hanging in the void, they were even more discussed.

A noble servant named Gan patted his chest at the person next to him and said proudly: "Are you stupid, you don't know what this is, hehe, but I know?"

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately pricked up their ears and leaned over to them, and Gan said, "I can be sure that this is another illusion, but do you know? This ladder is extraordinary! I once saw a mural in the Fire Temple of the Grand Duke City, on which was painted a ladder that reached the sky and the name of the magic ladder, which was used to test the strength and potential of the priests, and went up, the more difficult it was, the greater the pressure attached to the priests, so no one had ever climbed to the top. ”

"It's really not possible for anyone to reach the top, isn't it possible for the "National Sacrifice Lord" to be?"

"Yes, no one has ever been able to climb it," Gan said with a stern face.

Hiss~, everyone gasped in unison.

Seeing that everyone was still a little unconvinced, Gan's face was a little unbearable, and he continued to explain to everyone.

"You see that the first thousand steps in front are actually a watershed, and I can see in the murals that these are used for special testing, from the small city to the priests of Bocheng, and the two thousand steps at the back actually don't like to be specially used for testing, but those big duke cities, where the national priests sharpen themselves, and there is indeed a person at the top who has climbed it, but he is not a person. ”

At this point, Gan paused suddenly.

At this moment, the hall was silent, and Yixiu did not speak, and at that time, everyone shifted their attention to the questions of these people, and as soon as they answered, everyone was also guessing who this person was?

It is indeed a bit strange to say that no one has ever climbed to the top, and now it is said that there is a person who is not a human who has ever climbed to the top.

The next moment, with a pious expression, Gan looked due north from afar, and said to everyone, "He is the builder of the Demon Ladder, our great god of forging, Lord Vulcan." ”

The mystery was finally solved, and everyone got a reasonable, unexpected answer, and when they looked back again, the towering ladder, they all beat a little drum in their hearts, afraid that their children or masters would not be able to step on a single step.

Suddenly, everyone only heard Ikyu laugh loudly at Liuxin.

"Senior brother, what do you think?"

No one thought that Yi Xiu would open the skylight so indifferently to talk about this matter, and Liuxin, as the person being questioned, did not expect it, so he still pondered for a moment, but put forward a very suggestive question.

All the examiners who come to take the exam are mortals in the flesh, and some of them may have learned boxing and kicking and practiced physical skills, but after all, they are all mortals, how can they reach this level?

Finally mentioned the idea, Yixiu almost couldn't hold it anymore, and immediately laughed and accosted.

"Climbing the ladder is like a demon tester, and it is not, as the hall says, the examiner climbs every step, but he is reliable in his own physique, and the bloodline is relied on, there are gods, and the fierce bloodline is up, and the illusion can be immediately stimulated by climbing the ladder, and the better the bloodline, the easier it will go, the farther it goes, and vice versa. ”

Yixiu deeply grasped the truth that you can't say too much, and you must leave suspense, so she broke it off directly, but looked back at the reaction in the hall.

He found that Liuxin's face had become a little strange, and most of those ordinary pilgrims were fifth-class people, or fourth-class people, with a hammer bloodline, and even they themselves were ordinary people born and raised, not to mention their descendants?

Therefore, most people were a little depressed after listening to Yixiu, but the nobles' servants were happy on their faces.

Because the ancestors of their young master and young lady have gone back one generation, three generations, ten generations, and even more recently, there have been inheritors of the bloodline of the gods.

According to Ikyu, as long as there is a trace of divine blood in the body, it will be activated by the illusion, although this is not really activated, it only exists in the illusion, but this is enough, at least their young masters and young ladies will go farther than these civilians and untouchables, and the probability of getting good grades is also great.

But Yixiu then said to Liuxin without being salty, "Although the bloodline is good, it is secondary, and there are only two words and perseverance in this test question." ”

Immediately, the prompt sound generated by the system finally exploded loudly in the illusion after the examiner, two minutes after entering the examiner, like the Nine Heavenly Emperor and the Nine Shadows Emperor, officially kicked off the prelude to the second exam.
