Chapter 32: The Trial
"How's the sword practice?"
Dan Qingzi walked over slowly, looking at Xiao Lingran, who was squatting on the ground opposite, not knowing what to do. At this time, it has been almost half a year since Changqing said goodbye, and the year is about to end quietly...... Hearing the voice, Xiao Lingran stood up instantly, put his hands behind his back, looked at Dan Qingzi with a smile, and said;
"Ang, I'm almost done, it's too easy......"
Dan Qingzi walked up to him, nodded with a straight face, and said, "Stretch out your hand." β
"Huh?" Xiao Lingran pretended to be puzzled, "It's not good if men and women don't kiss each other......" Xiao Lingran blinked his eyes and looked at Mr., but obviously, Dan Qingzi wouldn't believe it.
"I don't want to repeat it a second time." Dan Qingzi stared at Xiao Lingran directly, she was suddenly stunned, and stretched out her hand tremblingly. I saw that my hands were full of messy herbs, some of which could poison people, and some of which could cure diseases......
"I'll let you practice your sword well, what are you doing with these things?" Dan Qingzi asked, her tone a little angry.
"Sir...... I've pretty much learned. And this year is almost over, so I want to ......" Xiao Lingran rubbed his hands and muttered.
"Since you want to learn alchemy so much, and you are so confident...... That's good. Dan Qingzi said.
"Really?" Xiao Lingran asked innocently, but he didn't notice Dan Qingzi's evil smile full of conspiracy.
"Now, you go to the Red Lotus state of mind to accept my trial." Dan Qingzi commanded, but Xiao Lingran let out a confident "um", so he quickly sat down and entered the heart realm.
Dan Qingzi took the first step into the state of mind, and when he saw Xiao Lingran coming, he said: "My trial is very simple, there will be a demonic beast here later, if you can defeat it, you will pass, I will naturally teach you alchemy as promised." Dan Qingzi explained the rules of the trial.
Xiao Lingran asked again: "Then if I ...... What to do if you are defeated by it? β
"......" Dan Qingzi stared at her, she didn't even go to the battlefield and thought that she had lost, it was really okay.
"It's easy, if you can't beat it, you'll stay here forever...... Oh, and of course it's possible to be eaten by it, after all, it's been hungry for a long time. Dan Qingzi said these expressionlessly, which seemed to Xiao Lingran to be crazy.
Is it too late to regret it now?
"I ......" Xiao Lingran wanted to say something, but in a blink of an eye, Dan Qingzi disappeared, only to hear a voice from the sky.
"Start ...... now"
"Huh? I'm not ready yet! β
At this moment, a red circle appeared on the ground, and after a while, the circle glowed, and something was about to emerge from the earth. Xiao Lingran cautiously stepped forward, wanting to take a look, but a behemoth suddenly came out of the soil, and a roar scared Xiao Lingran to the ground.
The beast was red all over, with black eyes, a pair of wings on its back, and a mouth full of fangs.
"You, hello......" Xiao Lingran sat on the ground, looking at the behemoth in front of him.
"Goo!" The belly of the demonic beast made a wild sound, and sure enough, it hadn't eaten for a long time, and even the belly cry was so deafening.
Xiao Lingran seemed to realize the importance of the problem after hearing this, and hurriedly pulled out the lackey from the scabbard, and the demonic beast saw the sharp weapon in her hand, and became even more irritable, and roared at Xiao Lingran again, shaking his ears and even his hairstyle was blown away by his breath.
"Oh, I'll go...... It smells so strong. Xiao Lingran was dizzy from the stench in the demonic beast's mouth, so he had to fan himself with his hand.
The monster seemed to feel her disgust, opened its bloody mouth and wanted to swallow her alive, Xiao Lingran quickly rolled to the side, which made it pounce in the air, biting on the soil, Xiao Lingran took advantage of the gap to hurriedly get up, patted the ash on his body, held the lackey in his hand, and watched vigilantly at the next move of the monster.
The monster shook its head, spat out the mud in its mouth, and then turned to look at Xiao Lingran, only to see it flutter its wings and fly up, and a lunge crashed into it.
Xiao Lingran saw that this big man was about to crash into her, and she ran away, she ran in front, and the demonic beast chased behind.
"Helpβ" The voice of the cry for help echoed throughout the mood. Dan Qingzi looked at the human-beast pursuit race in front of him with a black line on his face.
"Are you just going to run?" Dan Qingzi was a little angry, "Those Qingye swordsmanship on weekdays have all been learned in vain?" As soon as these words came out, Xiao Lingran remembered that he was also a person who knew martial arts, how could he be so weak!
It wasn't until he ran in front of a tree that Xiao Lingran stopped, picked up his sword in his hand, and prepared to confront it head-on. The beast saw Xiao Lingran suddenly stop, and almost couldn't stop the car and flew over, and stopped suddenly, and the land was rubbed out of a long trail.
"Huhuhu...... "The monster was big, but its physical strength was not good, so it was just running for a while and panting here."
Xiao Lingran didn't want to give it a chance at all, so he took advantage of its tiredness to jump into the air and took out the lackey to stab the monster's head.
The demonic beast reacted quickly, and pounced with one claw, Xiao Lingran stepped on its claws and jumped higher, using one of the moves in Qingye's sword technique, from a high place down, concentrating all his strength on the sword, if it was concentrated, it would definitely be fatal with one move.
The monster was ready, and its skin became redder, as if it was getting harder and harder. Xiao Lingran stabbed through the air, and the monster crossed its hands in front of it.
However, the skin of that thing was rough and thick, and it really couldn't be pierced, but it was just a scratch on its claws. Xiao Lingran took a few breaths, picked up the sword and continued to swing it. The demonic beast seemed to be a little hurried, and its claws were also waving wildly, and Xiao Ling ran a few ways to dodge its successive attacks.
The claws didn't seem to work, and the beast simply flicked up the long, big tail behind it. Its tail is not like a kitten's, but is covered with small spines, and at the end of the tail there is a meat hammer the size of a lead ball, which if it hits a person, the small life will be lost.
This monster played a clever trick, first flapped its wings, and blew all the ashes on the ground, wanting to charm Xiao Lingran's eyes, and the two claws also went back, but fortunately, Xiao Lingran reacted quickly, and took a few steps back before dodging.
"Shhhh But the wings of the demonic beast kept fanning, and the dust was blowing in the face, and it was really invisible.
Xiao Lingran had no choice but to calm down, relying on his hearing and reaction skills.
"Empty-" Something seemed to hit ahead. Xiao Lingran hurriedly jumped into the tree behind him.
With a "boom", the tree was split by the big tail of the demonic beast, and Xiao Lingran had no choice but to jump down from the tree.
Before she could stand still, the tail attacked again, Xiao Lingran was a little annoyed, and when it hit, she jumped to other high places, and when the tail was withdrawn, she took the opportunity to hold the tail and followed.
Although the dust fascinated her eyes, it also blocked the view of the demonic beast, and a yellow "fog" blocked it, and no one could see where Xiao Lingran went.
While the beast was looking for Xiao Lingran, she had already climbed onto the thing's back, took out the lackey and tried to pierce it, but its skin was not only hard but also very elastic, and squeezed her sword out again.
The monster probably knew where she was, and reached back to grab her, but its claws were too short to reach.
Xiao Lingran thought to himself, since he couldn't tie it, it was better to ......
"Knock knock...... Empty ......" Xiao Lingran crawled behind its head, its head was not too hard, so he took the sword and slammed it on his head.
"Whew~" The monster roared in pain there, and large and small swollen bags grew out of its head.
"Well, you know how good I am, right?"
The demonic beast was furious, flew high into the sky and then fell to the ground suddenly, which shocked Xiao Lingran, a "parasite".
"Oh ......" Xiao Lingran touched his ass and screamed. The monster snorted in its nose, as if to avenge itself again.
Xiao Lingran picked up the sword and rushed over, a whole set of Qingye swordsmanship came out, the skin of the demonic beast was thick, but it was also cut a lot, and he saw that he couldn't beat the fierce girl in front of him, so he stopped "physical attack".
"Huh......" The demonic beast took a deep breath, then straightened its chest, and then opened its big mouth, and between it spit out raging fire, and went straight to Xiao Lingran.
"I'll you, you'll breathe fire, you're cheating!" Xiao Lingran said, and kept dodging under his feet.
"This is the ...... you forced me," Xiao Lingran said, casually lighting a fire on it.
"Hahahaha, now I know my ......" Xiao Lingran just wanted to show off, but she just made a bunch of small flames. The monster exhaled disdainfully, and gently extinguished the flame as if it were a slap of ashes.
Seeing that it shook its head at itself, Xiao Lingran was embarrassed: "Hmph, I'm just...... Just to scare you, my bite begins! β
Immediately, Xiao Lingran's mind was concentrated, holding her breath, staring at the demonic beast in front of her, "Go ahead......" she thought in her heart.
Sure enough, a bunch ......of flames burned, but ......
"Ahhh Fight the fire! Xiao Lingran's strength deduces what it means to play with fire and self-immolation, and she doesn't know how, the fire burned on herself.
I saw her running around there, but Dan Qingzi kindly cast a spell from the outside to extinguish the flames on her body.
Looking at the large and small holes in her clothes, the monster actually laughed out loud.
Xiao Lingran stared at it, as if he felt the disdain that the Demon Beast had always had for him.
"You dare to laugh at me?" Xiao Lingran shouted.
