0210 Shortcut up the mountain (1)
Seeing this, a few of us naturally wanted to help, and scolded Nanhua and others, there were almost a dozen people on Nanhua's side, all of them were also articulate, and they suddenly launched a violent counterattack, scolding each other on both sides, scolding to the hearty place is spitting at each other, on the surface we have suffered a loss in numbers, but we can't stand up to us as a freak like Xiaolongma, his saliva is as much as a bowl of a sea at a time, and he suddenly has the upper hand.
Murong Xiu had such a violent temper that he wanted to do it after saying a few words, but Zuo Ci hurriedly stopped him, saying that this was Daochang Li's territory, and he couldn't fight at will, if he angered Daochang Li, he wouldn't be able to eat and leave.
After ridiculing and insulting each other for more than ten minutes, they all felt a little boring, gradually stopped the abuse, and began to brag to each other, Nanhua pointed to the beautiful man and said proudly: "My apprentice Yi Jie has reached the realm of a senior Dao Master, I don't know what level your apprentice is?" β
I was extremely surprised when I heard this, Li Daochang recruited relatives for his beloved apprentices, and it was absolutely impossible to find those old things that had been cultivated for hundreds of years, and he must be looking for men of the same age, that is to say, the age of Zhao Yun's fiancΓ©s was around seventeen or eighteen years old, and at most no more than twenty-five years old. Being able to cultivate to a high-level Dao Master at such an age can be regarded as extremely talented.
Hearing this, Zuo Ci snorted coldly: "Even if your apprentice cultivates to the grandmaster level, what about it?" Daoist Li has already said that there is no requirement for Dao art to recruit relatives this time, whether you are a senior Dao Master or a low-level Dao disciple, as long as you become a Shangjia aunt, you will immediately become a senior grandmaster. β
Nanhua sneered: "It's true that there are no requirements, but there will always be various competitions when I will choose, don't blame my apprentice for being ruthless when the time comes." β
Zuo Ci rolled his eyes: "Let's see." β
While the two were talking, another group of people appeared from the void, led by a thin old man, whose eyes were as deep as skeletons, but his eyes were full of desire to grab, like a beast waiting for an opportunity to eat. Behind him were seven young disciples, six of whom were women, one of them was extremely beautiful, and the other was a man, who was quite handsome with sword eyebrows, but the man's eyebrows were furrowed, and he seemed to be preoccupied.
Seeing this person, Zuo Ci snorted and didn't speak, but Nanhua saw a friend for many years, and stepped forward to hold hands and greet him, extremely affectionate.
Zuo Ci whispered to us, this thin old man is called Daoist Yuxiao, he is extremely lustful, and the six female disciples behind him are not so much his apprentices as his concubines, as for the young man, it is estimated that he is the disciple he specially went to collect after learning the news, as long as he gains the favor of Daoist Li and becomes a senior grandmaster, he can increase the strength of the sect.
Next, three more groups of people appeared one after another, namely the white-eyed old man Jin Chong, the bearded old man Geng Shuo, and the red-nosed old man Yu Hai. The relationship between Yu Hai and Zuo Ci is quite close, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and it can be learned from their greetings that Yu Hai's apprentice is called Kou Ling, and it seems that Yuan Yue Zhi is actually a Taoist and martial arts double cultivator.
After all the forces of the six directions arrived, there was a sudden red light on the top of the high mountain in the distance, and in the red light stood a phantom of a bearded man with a height of tens of meters, and said loudly to the bottom of the mountain: "I am a disciple Cheng Lei, the sixth under the master's seat, I am specially ordered by the master to greet you, I will announce the rules of going up the mountain, but whoever is read by me by name, please go forward, enter the mountain gate and choose the corresponding teleportation array to go up the mountain, please remember that going up the mountain is also part of the assessment, please don't be too careless." β
After a pause, Cheng Lei continued:
"Luoyang Jinzhong, please lead the No. 1 contestant Gu Feng and the doorman to go up the mountain from the No. 1 passage."
"Changshan Zuoci, please lead the No. 2 contestant Zhao Yun and the doorman to go up the mountain from the No. 2 passage."
"Donghai Yuxiao, please lead the No. 3 contestant Cui Jian and the doorman to go up the mountain from the No. 3 passage."
"Huainan Yuhai, please lead the No. 4 contestant Kou Ling and the doorman to go up the mountain from the No. 4 passage."
"Luling Nanhua, please lead the No. 5 contestant Yi Jie and the doorman to go up the mountain from the No. 5 passage."
Cheng Lei paused, and then said: "As for Jiangdong Gengshuo, you can go back by yourself." β
The bearded old man Geng Shuo couldn't help but be furious: "Why do you want to drive us back? β
Cheng Lei sneered: "Your disciple Liu Lang often goes in and out of the Qinglou in Jiangdong, this thing is always right, right?" β
Geng Shuo paused for a moment, and then said sharply: "Isn't it normal for men to enter and leave the Qinglou?" β
Cheng Lei snorted coldly: "Let's not say that it is abnormal for men to enter and exit the Qinglou, but Liu Lang is infected with Hualiu disease, is this normal?" I don't want to cause murder at the little junior sister's recruitment meeting, otherwise, I would have killed you a long time ago, so don't get out of here! β
Geng Shuo's face was red and white, and he stared at his disciple Liu Lang fiercely, and a group of people went down the mountain.
Cheng Lei laughed loudly: "Okay, please go up the mountain separately, I am waiting for you at the top of the mountain." After speaking, the red light gradually faded, and his figure also disappeared into the air.
I'm a little funny, this Liu Lang is inevitably too unclean and self-loving, not to mention going to the Qinglou, he actually contracted a disease, and at the same time, he was secretly frightened by the ability of Li Daochang's subordinates, grandma's, Zhao Yun was ravaged by a group of nuns in the Peach Blossom Nunnery, I don't know if Cheng Lei Xiao knows?
In the cranky thoughts, the five forces walked into the white mist at the foot of the mountain in turn, and walked more than 100 meters, a mountain gate appeared in front of us, ten meters high and seven meters wide, the whole body was white and jade, and there were four big characters at the door, the door of all wonders.
Behind the mountain gate are five teleportation arrays, the teleportation arrays are marked with the numbers one, two, three, four, five, Zhao Yun is the No. 2 contestant, we naturally walked in front of the No. 2 teleportation array, Xiaolongma was about to step in, I quickly stopped him, frowned and said: "That Cheng Lei said just now that going up the mountain is also an assessment, let's study this teleportation array first to see if there is anything weird." β
Xiao Ryoma looked at me with disdain: "Everyone has already entered, what else can be weird." β
Turning his head to look, he saw that the rest of the four forces had disappeared into the portal, and the portal began to fade away, scratching his scalp, and was sneering, but Zuo Ci said: "What Assi said also makes sense, anyway, everyone's route up the mountain is different, let's not fight for such a little time, be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years." β
Immediately, we searched around carefully for a while, and really found a very small box at the bottom of the teleportation array. This box is only the size of soybeans.
Zhao Yun once said that his master is not only a Taoist master, but also a master of hidden weapons, at first I didn't believe it, but now I believe it. I saw Zuo Ci take out a suitcase, open the suitcase and there were various tools in it, he took out a very thin metal wire, put one end next to his ear, and the other end tapped lightly on the box, knocked for more than ten times and pondered for a while, circled the wire in his hand on the box, and with a light click, the box was suddenly opened.
Inside was a very small white ball, and Zuo Ci was surprised: "Hey, this is a teleportation array." As he spoke, Zuo Ci took out the little white ball and threw it on the ground, and suddenly, a white portal appeared in front of us, and there were two words above the portal.
Shortcut!
Grass, I suddenly felt that the sky was thundering, damn it, a shortcut is a shortcut, and it was still so high-profile.
I was about to drill inside, but this time it was Dragoma who stopped me: "Assi, slow down." β
"How?" I squinted at Dragoma.
"There must be something strange about this." Droma laughed.
"Strange your sister!" I pushed him away with all my might, making a gesture to throw a fireball: "Everyone has marked it as a shortcut, don't you know how to read?" β
Zuo Ci opened his mouth to speak, but when he saw that one of my feet had already reached into the white teleportation array, he didn't say anything anymore.
Coming out of the teleportation array, there was an extremely spacious room in front of him, there was no window in the room, only a door, a table was placed in front of the door, and behind the table sat an old man who couldn't be older, Zuo Ci was also considered to be older, but compared to this old man, Zuo Ci was simply a strong, vigorous and powerful man.
Obviously, the only way out in front of us is this door, and if we want to get out, we must give way to this old man.
Zuo Ci took a step forward, coughed lightly, and was about to speak, when his eyes swept over the table, and suddenly said, "Hey, this is ...... This game ......"
Hearing this, I glanced at Zhao Yun and the others, looked forward curiously, and couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice when I saw the things on the table in front of the old man.
On the table turned out to be a chess endgame, and this chess endgame was the one that Zuo Ci had studied before.
Suddenly remembered that Zuo Ci once said that this endgame was related to Zhao Yun's lifelong event, but he didn't expect it to appear here.
The old man slowly raised his head, his eyes were dazed, and he said vaguely: "Which of you is a contestant participating in the recruitment conference?" β
Zhao Yun took a step forward and bowed his hand: "Zhao Zilong in Xia Changshan, may I ask what the seniors are called." β
"Old man Dan Yangzi, ranked fifth under the master's seat, you must have come to take a shortcut, right?" The old man's dim eyes suddenly flashed, and there was a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth.
"Yes, we did find another portal in the teleportation array at the foot of the mountain, marked with the word shortcut, and then teleported here, and I hope that the seniors will give way." Zhao Yun said with a smile.
"Young man, although you have a little true qi in your body, you don't know how to do Taoism, right?" Danyangzi said slowly.
Although this old man is old, his vision is good, and even Zhao Yun can see a little true qi in his body, yes, Zhao Yun doesn't know Taoism, but he has a little true qi given to him by Zuo Ci in his body, and it is because of this true qi that Zhao Yun can enter the black realm.
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "The senior's eyes are like torches. β
"There are so many shortcuts in this world, and even if you take shortcuts, you have to have the corresponding strength. Want to get out of your room? Danyangzi smiled slightly and pointed to the chess game in front of him: "It's very simple, either you solve this endgame, and I'll let you out; Either you kill me and step on my chest. β
When Murong Xiu heard this, she immediately wanted to throw a fireball, but she was stopped by me: "This old man seems to have some ability, we can't act rashly." β
Danyangzi laughed: "Count you smart, now is the big day for my little junior sister to recruit relatives, and I don't want to make it bloody, so let's do it, I'll show you a hand reluctantly." β
Immediately, he waved his hand, and a molten pool of flames appeared in front of us, which was the exclusive skill of the junior Grand Master, the Flame of the Plain.
In other words, the bad old man in front of him is not bad at all, he is at least a junior grand master.

In the morning, I said that I had established a WeChat public account, but I forgot to say the number of the public account, which is really damned, uh, WeChat search for 'Cao Mazi'. R1058
