Chapter IX: Investigation and Selection (3)

When the three of them were running away and thinking about the direction, a group of people in plain red shirts came into view.

"How's it going inside?"

"Also...... And one more. ”

"Good. You juniors. The leading disciple beckoned a few people, "I'm sorry to take a few junior disciples back to the front of the main hall." The rest of the juniors and disciples will follow me to the dense forest to subdue the giant python. ”

"Yes!" All the disciples listened in unison. Then they disappeared from the eyes of the remaining people.

"This son, come with us."

"I ...... I'm still not at ease......"

"Childe doesn't have to worry. The leading disciple is our senior brother, and you can rest assured of his ability. ”

"Oh! I'm not questioning that brother's abilities. But when we came out, there was a girl who was still fighting with the python inside. I...... I'm a little worried about her. If she hadn't stepped forward, we'd all die here. ”

"Although the python seems to be fierce, it is nothing more than that. It has been sealed by my Lingxian Pavilion for a hundred years, and now that it is awakened, it is powerless. ”

"That's just for you, it's a big hidden danger for us ordinary people." Xuan Zhuyi hugged his wrist and said, "Please also ask a few senior brothers to send these girls back." I...... We still have to go back and see with our own eyes that the people who saved us are safe and sound. I have a lot of brothers. ”

“…… You ......"

"Master Xuan, this is not a joke."

"I also asked Miss Mu to take care of this girl. She hadn't woken up for a long time, presumably frightened. Everybody! Xuan Zhuyi farewell! With that, Xuan Zhuyi turned around and ran back into the dense forest.

At this time, in the dense forest, a woman in black and a man in a green shirt were standing on both sides of the giant python. The man leaped to his feet, reached out and grabbed a thick branch of the tree, and then pressed down as hard as he could, using this force to leap up again and rush to the woman on the other side. The python turned its head and rushed towards the woman, who threw her sword upward, walked around the tree with the trunk in her hand, and jumped up from the head of the python with her feet. The thrown sword was being picked up by the man, and when the man fell downward, he was confronted by the rising woman, who took the sword with her hand and continued upward. As he fell, the man stepped on the head of the python, which wagged its tail angrily, breaking several trees around it. The man landed on a nearby tree and watched it all. The woman stood on a high point and swooped down on the python's head, slashing down with a sword in the center. The python howled, then wagged its tail and shook its head wildly. The sword was still stuck in the skull, and the woman jumped down again and stood on the sword, and thrust the sword down a few dozen centimeters. Recklessly stood up, the howl getting louder. The woman rolled down from the python and stood aside. The python swayed its body even more frantically, and the man jumped down from the tree at this time, standing on the python's head and trying to pull out the sword, but the sword couldn't be pulled out. The python swung more and more, and the direction of its standing became more and more difficult to control, so it could only hold the sword in its hand and let its body be thrown around. As if he had found that swinging from side to side could not relieve his pain and could not shake the person above his head off, the python changed its strategy and threw its head to the ground. The powerful impact forced the man to let go and roll off the python. The woman jumped on the head of the snake again, and the python still kept diving forward, trying to get rid of what was on its body with the huge force of impact. The woman held the hilt of the sword, stepped on the blade with one foot, and under another strong dive of the giant python, the woman pushed the sword hard, relying on the force of this swoop to push the sword forward for more than ten meters. The woman stomped on the snake's head and threw her sword out with all her might, plunging straight into a tree. The python was trampled and lay on the ground, but then it straightened its head up again, and let out a long, terrible howl. The man stood up and pulled out the sword stuck in the tree, and the woman leaped down from the python and left with the man. At this time, the giant python was not dead, it just kept swinging its body wildly, howling constantly, and the blood on its body kept pouring out, not only breaking dozens of trees around it, but also dying a piece of bright red. A group of blue-bottomed red-shirted men immediately arrived, and the leader led some of the disciples to draw their swords and stab upwards from the jaw of the python, while the other part jumped up and stood up and stabbed downward from the python's head. After a brief silence, a howl that tore through the world shocked everyone. The sound was like thunder, and it caused lightning to crack the sky. The leader took advantage of the victory and slashed his sword through the jaw of the python into the abdomen. Everyone immediately put away their swords and retreated, watching the giant python shake for a moment, and then fell to the ground with a river of blood.

Xuan Zhuyi arrived later, and was momentarily stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

"This son, why are you here?"

"Ah...... I ......" Xuan Zhuyi looked at the person who asked him as if he had just woken up from a dream, it was the senior brother of the previous Lingxian Pavilion, "That...... Have you seen a woman in black? ”

"The woman in black? When we arrived, there was only this python, and we didn't see any women in black. ”

"Then she won't be eaten by a python, will she?"

"Probably not. By the time we arrived, the python was already badly wounded. The woman you're talking about should have taken advantage of the chaos to leave. ”

"Whew~ That's good, that's good."

More people had gathered in front of the main hall of the Lingsenkaku, and everyone was talking about the weather vision that had just appeared and the dull thunder. The Mu sisters had also gathered in front of the main hall, and the fainted girl was in a well-proportioned breath at the moment, and there were signs of awakening.

"Sister, why don't you say that this Lingxian Pavilion doesn't arrange a place to stay for us to go in? This girl is still fainting, why no one has come to take a look, what if something happens? ”

"Didn't the senior brothers who sent us back already have seen it? There was nothing wrong with the girl, it was just overwork and fright. ”

"But isn't it strange that she hasn't woken up for so long? What she had just experienced was so dangerous, but she had always been like this. Doesn't my sister think it's strange? ”

"Don't think about it. She was probably scared. Nothing. ”

As he spoke, a flash of lightning was heard from the sky, followed by a dull thunderclap.

"Is this going to rain?"

Before the words were finished, a roar that broke through the nine heavens made everyone present vibrate. The girl who had fainted suddenly opened her eyes and sat up in a panic to calm her mood.

This move frightened the Mu sisters.

"Girl? Are you awake? ”

"I ...... Where am I? ”

"You're in front of the Lingsenkaku Hall now."

"And who are you?"

"We are the ones who save you."

"Oh~ That's right, thank you."

"But girl, how did you get hanged?"

"I ...... It's to find the Spirit Dance Water Butterfly. I accidentally stepped on something and was hung there. Ah~ Thank you for saving me, otherwise I'm afraid I'd die there. ”

"It doesn't matter. In fact, it wasn't us who saved you, we just brought you back. ”

"That'...... Who saved me? ”

"He still has some business, and he will come over in a moment. Girl, I don't know your name after so long? ”

"Oh! My name is Ouyang Ruolin, I am from Ligu County, and I came here to Lingxian Pavilion to practice some martial arts and keep myself and my family safe. ”

"I'm Mu Zhixi, and she's my sister Mu Jinggong. We came from Gyeonggi to practice martial arts and defend ourselves. Since Miss Ruolin is here alone, then come with us. You can also take care of each other. ”

Ruolin had this in mind. Thanks to the girl's dislike, Ruolin is willing to walk with the girl. ”

"Haha~ Okay!"

While chatting, a large number of Lingxian Pavilion disciples who were dyed bright red had returned to the main hall.

"Everyone! The python has been removed, please be calm. The people who came back before the two sticks of incense, we already know. Here, Li Zhuang congratulates everyone on their successful promotion. Today's incident happened suddenly, so the third round of selection will start tomorrow at noon, and I would like to ask you to rest for the night so that you can do your best tomorrow. Senior Brother," Li Zhuang turned his head to the little junior brother on the side and said, "The list of promoted personnel will be announced, and then everyone will be arranged to rest." ”

"Yes! Big brother. The little junior brother took out a scroll-like thing from behind his back and said, "Yu Cihe, Shang Ling, Qiang Moyun, Li Han, Yin Huashang, Mo Yinfeng...... Mu Zhixi, Mu Jinggong, Ouyang Ruolin, Xuan Zhuyi," the little junior brother put away the scroll and said, "Everyone, please come with me." ”
