On the top of the main peak of Shangqing Mountain, there is a palace towering, revealing glazed tile roofs in the green bamboo forest, reflecting the golden sunlight. The ornate pavilion is surrounded by elegantly shaped clear pond water, and the duckweed is all over the ground, green and clear. The eaves are straight, and there are two cranes on it, which are vivid, as if they want to spread their wings and fly away.

The place that was quiet and majestic on weekdays was extremely solemn today, and there was no noise from the two rows of respectful doormen.

He Muhua's black-haired and white-clothed imperial sword came, and he landed at the door of the main hall at the peak without hurry.

"See Uncle Shi"

The Taoists standing on both sides bowed their heads in unison and saluted respectfully.

He bowed his head slightly, stood tall behind his hands, and paced to the front of the main hall.

"He Muhua see the senior brother in charge, the elders," he bowed and said loudly. The white wide sleeves of the robe drew a half-arc in the air, which highlighted his elegant temperament.

"Junior and junior are exempt." A calm, neutral voice floated out of the hall.

With a calm expression, he lifted his feet and stepped over the threshold and walked in.

In the center of the hall sat a person, dressed in a graceful white robe with a royal blue belt, wearing a jade-colored crown, a face about thirty years old, sword eyebrows into the sideburns, and a pair of long eyes with restrained light. There were three more people sitting on each side of him, all of them in white robes, but the color of their belts was clearly different, two of them wore gold belts, and the other four were silver.

"What's the matter with the Yaoqing card?" Before he could get closer, an old man with a silver belt sitting at the bottom had a long face and a big nose, his eyebrows were constricted, and his eyes were not good.

He Muhua stood still and swept his face, raised his eyebrows lightly but said respectfully, Uncle Qin, this is my decision. ”

"Such a big thing, have you forgotten the oath you once made, don't skip words. Elder Qin slapped the next case, and raised his tone sharply He Muhua, It's only been twenty years, and you have forgotten what happened at the beginning? ”

"Senior Brother Qin" The old man with the silver belt sitting on his left hand, with crane hair and a childish goatee, frowned, and said softly, "This matter is serious, don't blame it first, and then make a decision after listening to Mu Hua's explanation." ”

"Hmph, I'd like to hear what reason you have for making your own decisions," Elder Qin's eyes flickered.

"Old man Qin, you should be kind to juniors" A white and chubby silver belt elder on the right said in an exaggerated tone, with a somewhat playful smile, which made this solemn atmosphere a little strange.

"Senior brother, the ancestor token is a sacred relic of the sect, you should talk about it carefully." As if supporting Elder Qin, and as if defending He Muhua, the middle-aged man with the blue belt said in a deep voice.

"Senior Brother in charge," He Muhua met his gentle eyes and said calmly, "If it were an ordinary person, I would not have taken the risk of breaking my oath and passing on tokens privately to make such a decision." ”

Elder Qin snorted lightly, no.

He paused, lowered his head slightly, and continued thoughtfully with phoenix eyes but this child is extremely talented, and his physique is different from ordinary people. ”

"Hmph, is this also a reason not to skip words. Elder Qin shook his sleeves and stood up, his face gloomy and uncertain, as if he was furious.

The fat elder who was laughing just now seemed to be shocked by He Muhua's explanation, and his fat face was stunned. Nothing? ”

The head of the blue belt ignored the reactions of the two, and still looked directly at his junior brother to continue, this will definitely not be your only consideration. ”

He Muhua raised his eyes, there seemed to be a look of embarrassment on Jun's face, his eyes wandered and he hesitated and said softly, It is indeed as the head said, but ......"

"Yes, but not only," the fat elder jumped from his chair to the center of the hall.

He was short and fat, and his flowing robe looked very incompatible with his short stature.

He shook his head and pulled up He Muhua's sleeve, his eyes were full of eagerness, I said Xiaohua, you can say it quickly. You can't eat these two big sins, you want to die in a hurry, don't you? ”

"Senior Uncle Wang," He Muhua looked at the kind person in front of him who did not have a long demeanor, and his heart was warm, but he still hesitated on the surface, "This matter is very important, I dare to tell the senior brother in charge alone." ”

As soon as these words came out, the Taoist with the two golden belts that had been slightly closed also opened his eyes.

"Do you have to hide something from me and wait for the elders?" Elder Qin glanced back, and saw that the two Daoists had unhappy faces, and his heart became even more determined, "The Ancestor Token is the most important thing, I, against" The last three words do not allow any refutation.

"It's really wrong," the Golden Belt Daoist, who was sitting on the left side of the head, also said slowly, "You'd better give an explanation now." ”

The goatee was no, and the others remained silent.

The head of the sect looked left and right, and said after a moment of silence, Senior Brother should be here to tell the truth, so as not to worry about the elders. ”

These words seemed to be a decision, but how could He Muhua, whose heart was like hair, not be able to hear the meaning of his senior brother's words. Actually, that's what he wants

"Then respect the order of the master" He glanced at the fat white elder beside him with some shame, and looked at the head again, Zhengse said that there is a red mole on his face, surnamed Bai, who is exactly eleven years old this year"

In just a few words, there seemed to be no profound meaning, but the air in the entire empty hall was stagnant, and everyone's complexion changed

When the head heard this, he also stood up, and frowned lightly to drink this is true? ”

"Totally true."

Elder Qin, Goatee, White Fat Old Dao, and the other three all looked at each other.

"Where is he now?" The Golden Belt Daoist just now asked.

"I'm taking the introductory test." He Muhua replied respectfully.

"Even so, you can't break your oath and take in disciples without permission," Elder Qin pulled the topic again, still saying sternly.

"I am willing to be punished" He Muhua raised his head and swept over everyone, "The Yaoqing card has been given, and there is absolutely no reason to take it back." ”

"You" Elder Qin actually laughed angrily and pointed at him with his finger, "Okay, good, worthy of being a good apprentice of Huiqing"

Hearing him mention the name of the master, he and the head of the house both frowned.

"You save it" The fat elder finally couldn't bear it anymore and was furious, "You are pulling him to do it?" ”

“？ I can't say my brother's name yet, don't you skip words. Elder Qin snorted coldly, the disdain in his eyes overflowing.

The fat elder actually came to Elder Qin in a flash, and raised his hand to slap it.

"Presumptuous" A golden-belted Taoist with white hair instantly blocked between the two, and his thin fingers tightly pinched the wrist of the fat Taoist.

The fat Taoist withdrew his hand angrily, and there seemed to be a little fog in his small eyes, which were originally like a crescent moon. He shouted loudly and said that whoever dares to be disrespectful to my senior brother, I am not worthy of this elder, and I will not spare him."

The head of the door flickered at this time, and he was silent.

"Tell me more about the scene of the apprenticeship at that time." Another Golden Belt Daoist broke the deadlock and asked He Muhua a question.

"Elder Bingtai, this son was not actually found by me, but was preceded by a loose cultivator who didn't know where he came from." He explained the reason for the seat that he had already agreed with Fan Ping, "After I went down the mountain, I met him unexpectedly in Sanshui City, and only brought it back to the mountain gate after competing with him. ”

"Loose cultivation? Do you see the way to go? Old Goatee asked.

"It should be from the North." He frowned, and continued to speak, but he cast a spell on this son to cover the mole. ”

"Hmph, casual cultivation is just concerned about these carving insect skills," Elder Qin snorted coldly.

He Muhua did not respond to him, and continued to take care of himself This mask has an extraordinary origin, if I didn't guess, it should be related to the stolen Beihai Double Pearl twenty years ago. ”

“？” The goatee old man couldn't sit still anymore, and stood up a little out of shape, "Could it be that the speculation of the ancestor's hexagram is really true?" His eyes drifted to the white-haired Taoist.

The main hall fell silent again.

"No matter what, against the original oath, He Muhua is willing to accept the disposal of the head." He lifted his robe, knelt down on his knees in front of the head of the house, bowed his head and said nothing.

"No, Xiaohua" the fat Taoist said anxiously, "You broke your oath to accept apprentices for a reason, this is for the sake of our future in Shangqing Mountain, and we can accept that punishment again."

"Can't?" Elder Qin said substantially, "If there is a reason, you can also bring this son back first." He obviously deliberately disobeyed"

"You all shut up" The white-haired Taoist looked impatient, and shouted to stop the quarrel between the two, "In my opinion, because it is related to the ancestor's original teachings, then there is no need to pursue the matter of privately giving Yao Qingpai." But," he said, his eyes flashed, and he said sternly, "Breaking the oath is the biggest taboo in my sect, no matter what the reason, it will be punished heavily."

"He Muhua" he took two steps forward, stood in front of his knees, and looked down, "Are you guilty?" ”

"The disciple is guilty, please deal with it with Elder Taishang." The words are categorical.

With a slight look of approval in his eyes, the white-haired elder turned to look at the five-year poor punishment of the head of the sect, does the head think this punishment is acceptable? ”

"Poor, poor?" When the white fat elder heard this, he jumped up, and the fat finger pointed at the white-haired old man, and said angrily, "This, this, this is too heavy."

Even when the other elders heard these words, they couldn't help but gasp.

In the Shangqing Mountain Gate Rules, there are three penalties for felonies.

The first punishment is specifically for breaking the precepts and rules, including stealing and fraud, betraying the same family, men and women, etc., according to the regulations, they will be sent to the cave of the precept peak and imprisoned, and the heavier ones will also be abolished and driven out of the sect.

The second punishment is specifically for innocent killing, and according to the regulations, the heaviest one is that under the gaze of the whole department, he was nailed into the meridians by ninety-nine life-seeking nails on the torture roof, and finally died of exhaustion three days later. This punishment is the scene that all the disciples fear the most, so since witnessing a person being executed twenty years ago, no one dares to offend it lightly.

However, there is no specific punishment for this third penalty, that is, anyone who makes a mistake is likely to be sent to the poor. But this punishment is even more terrible than the first two punishments combined

The poor wall is a lone peak in the mountains of Shangqing Mountain, with strange rocks and overgrown grass, which forms a strong contrast with the lush scenery of the other peaks. Because of its desolate color, it has been used as a place to imprison sinners since the founding of the mountain. There are thirty-eight steel cables on the top of the mountain, and sharp hooks will pierce the thirty-eight joints of the sinner, seal the holes, and receive the punishment of heavenly rain and thunder and lightning on the rooftop.

It is rumored that ordinary people will not be able to endure it for three days at all, and they will definitely die. The Taoist who has cultivated to the subtlety or above will maintain his life because of the power of the immortal yuan in his body, and under this harsh condition, he will endure the living sins day after day until the immortal yuan is exhausted and die in agony.

Therefore, this third punishment is the highest punishment for both capital crimes and living crimes, which also shows that when the fat elder heard the word "poor wall", he was extremely excited.

"The punishment of five years of poverty is too severe, right? There are a lot of words on the no novel network" The head finally spoke, "Elder Taishang, although He Muhua violated his oath and his crime is severe, if it is five years, it will definitely make his skills completely useless, and our strength will suffer a heavy loss."

"It's too heavy." The old goatee echoed.

The white-haired elder looked sideways at the white-clothed man who was still kneeling, and his eyebrows were cold for five years, not long"

"He Muhua receives the punishment," he kowtowed deeply, and said in a calm tone, "I have only one request, and I hope that Elder Taishang will approve it." ”

"Say."

"Please allow me to go back to the poor wall in three years"

The "quasi" white-haired Taoist man's eyes flashed, and he agreed

The head looked at He Muhua a little sluggishly, he never expected that his junior brother would accept such a punishment so decisively

In fact, how could he not know the intentions of the Supreme Elder? This is just a disguise, but once the junior brother receives the punishment, then he will definitely have to spend five years on the poor wall

Five years, he didn't even feel it, and you must have made up your mind, knowing that there was this day, why did you make such a heavy oath in the first place

He Muhua couldn't see the struggle in the eyes of the senior brother in charge.

But for him, Fan Ping's life-and-death friendship that saved him back then was far more difficult than today's poor punishment

Without a moment's hesitation, he bowed his head heavily.

However, just as he was about to get up, a great tremor accompanied by a rumbling sound swept over the mountain peaks in the distance

Everyone changed color and looked in one direction

There is the biggest secret of the sect where it is buried, and it is also the place where everyone is forbidden to go deeper, the forbidden land of Shangqing Mountain

is made of].
