The old woman glanced at everyone and said, "It's not too early, let's go in." ”

The woman named Niju saluted her and led the group into the valley ahead, where the figure faded away.

As they entered, the four elders walked straight to a row of wooden houses beyond the valley.

In the largest wooden house, there were more than ten figures, and the Eighth Elder was among them, he glanced at the Fourth Elder, and turned his head with a gloomy face.

The rest of the people were men and women, and an old man looked at her and asked, "The fourth vein came so late, so he must have already gotten the love Gu, right?" ”

The Fourth Elder glanced at him and said, "This doesn't bother the Second Elder. ”

Another old woman snorted coldly and said, "I really think that if you get the love Gu, you can get the position of the Holy Maiden, who wins and who loses, it's not certain!" ”

The battle of the Holy Maiden is a major event between the Ten Thousand Gu Sect and Qiandi, and during this time, the ten elders will stay here and wait for the final result.

Although it was the consensus of all of them that a holy woman must be elected as soon as possible to reunite the collapsed Ten Thousand Gu Sect, it was still a matter of endless controversy among them who to choose as the holy woman.

The Holy Maiden is the core of the Ten Thousand Gu Sect, and it is also the absolute leader of the sect, there is no doubt that which vein competes for the position of the Holy Maiden, in the days to come, which vein is the first vein of the ten veins, no one is willing to give this opportunity to others.

A few people sarcastically said a few words to each other, and suddenly someone looked around and said in surprise: "Why don't you see Ou Xin?" ”

Ou Xin is the Nine Elders, and the ten elders here gather, but only Ou Xin is missing.

On such an important occasion, it was extremely unbelievable that one of the Ten Elders was absent.

Someone said: "When the people of the ninth vein entered the forest, they didn't see her, and it is said that she was in retreat to comprehend the Gu technique, and she hasn't been out of the customs for three months." ”

The reason for the Nine Elders' absence was explained, and everyone stopped talking about the matter, they were already wary of each other, and even under the same roof, there was not much communication.

Just now, the old woman walked in from the outside and nailed a piece of cloth to the wall.

There are ten pieces of cloth like this on the wall, each with eleven names written on them, including a candidate for the Holy Maiden, and ten Holy Guardians.

If one of the candidates eventually becomes a true saint, these ten people are the top of the sect, and it is not impossible for them to become the existence of the ten great elders in the future, of course, the premise is that they can survive in the Ten Thousand Gu Forest.

Because the task of these ten people is to protect the candidate saint to become a true saint, and for this task, they can give anything, including their lives.

In fact, over the years, the Guardians have paid for their lives, and even the entire army has been wiped out.

Whether or not those saintess candidates can defeat their opponents in the Ten Thousand Gu Forest and have the last laugh, these ten saintess guardians play a vital role.

Therefore, for these ten guardians, each vein will send the strongest lineup in the tribe, and for the other veins, they not only care about who the other party's candidate saint is, but also care very much about the other party's saint maiden guardian.

If there were ten elder-level Gu Dao masters mixed in with it, it would be a fatal blow to the rest of the veins.

That's why they've made it a rule that guardians can't be older than thirty.

"There are actually two guardians in the third vein who have been promoted to the blue coat, and they are only eighteen years old......"

"So what, there are also two in the seventh vein."

"The ...... of the saints selected by the tenth vein is a Han Chinese?"

……

Looking at the name on the cloth, someone seemed to have noticed an abnormality, and after everyone gathered around to take a look, their brows were all frowned, and their eyes looked at a figure in the corner, which was the elder of the tenth vein.

"What's so strange about her just using a Chinese name?" The Ten Elders glanced at the Fourth Elder and said, "Elder Xin Yi is in the same vein, isn't there also a person named Tang Ningning?" ”

The Gu people have the script and language of the Gu people, and their names are different from those of the Han people, but with the deepening of the communication between the Gu people and the Han people, some of them will also take a Han name for themselves.

Today, there are many Gu people with Han names, and Han names are gradually recognized in Qiandi.

Moreover, the tenth vein has a close relationship with the former royal family of the Liang Kingdom, and there are countless people who take Han names in their veins.

The crowd did not dwell too much on this issue, and the silence in the cabin soon returned.

In the corner, beside the Ten Elders, a middle-aged woman frowned and said, "Tang Ningning...... could it be him?" ”

"You are confused, this is Qiandi, how can he be here?" Bai Jin glanced at Gongsun Ying, "Moreover, how can a man become a woman?" ”

Gongsun Ying shook his head and said, "I should have thought too much......

The Ten Elders on the side looked at Bai Jin and asked, "Senior Sister, how sure are you about this matter?" ”

Bai Jin said: "She has the Ice Silkworm Gu on her body, and the Silver Thread Snake King, in terms of Gu art, no one is her opponent, and she is also surrounded by masters who we have arranged to enter, but nothing goes wrong......

Outside the hut, several figures stood guard outside the valley, tasked with keeping anyone but the Holy Maiden and the Guardian at bay.

At one point, one of them rubbed his eyes, looked at his companion beside him, and asked, "Did something pass just now?" ”

The man next to him looked at him and said, "What's there?" ”

The man said, "I seem to have seen some shadow pass just now, and the pile of dead leaves has moved......

The other waved his hand and said, "It's the wind, right?" ”

The man looked again, saw that the valley in front of him was empty, and there was nothing, shook his head, and said, "Perhaps......

At this time, in the valley, the old beggar stepped on the thick dead leaves, pouted, and muttered, "What a broken place......

Downing squatted beside the stream, washed his face, and then reached out and grabbed a snake that had escaped from the water and wanted to sneak up on him.

"Don't throw it." The old beggar came over, snatched it from his hand, skillfully took out the snake gall bladder, and threw it into his mouth.

He tilted his head and took a sip of wine, looked at Tang Ning and asked, "What are you going to do next?" ”

Fighting for the Holy Maiden, Tang Ning was also the first time that the eldest girl got on the sedan chair, he looked at Nijiu and asked, "Did the four elders tell you, what will you do next?" ”

After Ah Duo translated Tang Ning's words, Ni Jiu looked at him with a complicated face and said a few words.

Ah Duo looked at Tang Ning and said, "She said that the fourth elder didn't say anything, and let her listen to Brother Tang." ”

Tang Ning thought for a moment and said, "Find a place to camp, if we don't look for them, they will come to us too." ”

The way the Ten Thousand Gu Sect chooses a saint has always been cruel, just like practicing Gu, ten candidate saints enter the Ten Thousand Gu Forest, and only one can become a saint in the end.

And the only way to become a saint is to defeat the other nine candidates.

Therefore, they don't really need to do anything, and someone will come to them.

After Tang Ning and the others went deep into a distance, they planned to camp in place and wait for the rabbits.

At the same time, somewhere in the woods dozens of miles away from their camp.

Eleven figures walked slowly in the forest, and a young girl looked behind her, a little worried: "She won't catch up, right?" ”

"Don't worry." Another woman comforted: "With Sister Su here, even if she catches up, we are not afraid." ”

The girl walked to the front, looked at a veiled woman at the front, and asked, "Sister Su, what should we do next?" ”

The woman stopped, looked around, and said, "Just stop here, they'll find it sooner or later......"

Her voice is so graceful that when you listen to it, you can't help but feel a tingling feeling in your bones.

A breeze suddenly rose in the forest, blowing up the corner of her veil, revealing half a face that was enough to charm all beings......
