Chapter 52: Arriving at the Mountain

They surrounded Yang Kai, not daring to attack easily, Yang Kai thought in his heart, such a dozen wolves, he had to break out as soon as possible.

The spiritual power like flames on his body was surging rapidly, and the black spear in his hand swung forward.

As soon as these wolves saw Yang Kai's gun swinging towards them, they dodged, I have to say, their speed is still very advantageous, Yang Kai saw them scatter, and quickly found a direction and walked out.

The group of wolves behind did not follow him, and in the short battle just now, they had already listed this man in the ranks of extremely dangerous.

Yang Kai didn't know how they found out, he thought it might be a coincidence.

He began to run in the darkness of the night, and he was looking for a relatively remote place to rest for the night, and it would be a terrible thing to be disturbed by some other wild beast.

He came to a quieter grove, found a smaller tree, climbed it, and began to rest.

In fact, what he didn't know was that from the moment he stepped into this mountain, he had a natural attraction, which was specially set for the examiners.

In the mountains at night, quietly, the wolves, under the leadership of the leader, returned to their lair.

This night, Yang Kai was not disturbed by other things, the next day, the sun rose as usual, Yang Kai washed his face with dew, and the whole person's spirit was much better.

He continued on a new journey, and almost halfway through the month, he had reached the point where he was almost at the top of the mountain.

It was only then that he realized how magnificent and vast the mountains here were.

I looked down, and there was a very distant feeling, a very small feeling.

It seems that he has reached the top of the mountain, where there is a stone monument.

It is about half a person high, and on this stone tablet, there are four big characters written "the top of the mountain without medicine"

There are still sections of steps here, and Yang Kai followed the steps here and began to walk towards them.

When he reached the end of the stairs, he saw that there was a large clearing above, and there seemed to be a very large stone cave here.

Yang Kai walked to the top of this clearing, looked left and right, but did not find anyone.

He walked to the entrance of the stone cave and was just about to enter, when at this moment, behind him, a man suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

Yang Kai was taken aback for a moment, he turned around and found that it was an old man with a very slender body and white beard, giving people a very kind feeling.

The old man looked at him with a smile, Yang Kai felt very embarrassed, this cave may be the old man's residence, he entered it so blatantly, and was seen by others, of course, he was a little embarrassed.

Of course, he didn't forget his goal this time, to find the old man who didn't take medicine, worship him as a teacher, and then let him teach him the basics of alchemy.

In his mind, he thought that this old man should not be an old man without medicine, and he looked like this, which was quite in line with the identity of an alchemist.

If it's him, then what do you say?

Before he could come back to his senses, the old man on the other side began to speak.

"You came to the top of the mountain through the test, and you want to learn the art of alchemy from me, but. I never teach ignorant people alchemy, that would only be a waste of my own time.

You can come with me now and pour tea and water, as for how much can you learn? That's up to you. ”

The old man said.

"Okay, master."

Yang Kai said this, and then nodded hurriedly.

The old man didn't have much opinion on this title, and he taught him the knowledge of alchemy by himself, so he naturally could afford this title.

The figure of the old man began to become illusory, and the whole person disappeared like a smoke.

Yang Kai couldn't see the slightest trajectory at all, but in his mind, he should have returned to the cave.

He went into this cave, and it wasn't until he entered the inside of this cave that he felt that there was really something else in it.

It gives a very comfortable feeling, and the place is very wide.

In the middle of this cave, there is a small pool of water.

The old man was now sitting under a stone table, holding a cup made of porcelain, the tea in which was green, but it gave people a very sweet feeling.

He saw Yang Kai outside the entrance of the cave walk in and drank the tea in the cup.

Said with a smile.

"Come here! Let me first tell you some basic knowledge of alchemy. ”

After Yang Kai heard his words, he walked towards him.

The old man sitting under the stone table smiled very gratifying when he saw Yang Kai coming over.

His hand waved above this stone table, and this stone table suddenly turned into a chessboard, and he said to Yang Kai.

"Come, let's play a game of chess first and see who has better skills."

Yang Kai walked to the side of the stone table and sat down, there was not a single child on this chessboard.

He said to the old man opposite.

"Baizi first, you move first!"

The old man was not polite, he rolled up his sleeves directly, pinched a white chess piece in his hand, and placed it on the chessboard.

A crisp sound echoed through the cave, and the old man had already fallen into the cave.

Yang Kai saw that the old man had already made a move first, and he also reached out and pinched a black chess piece, carefully observing the situation.

He placed the non-black piece on the top right of the white piece.

The two pieces are diagonally shaped and look diagonally like two pieces facing each other.

Seeing this situation, Yang Kai showed his pair of big white teeth and laughed.

The old man with white hair on the opposite side couldn't help but glance at him when he saw Yang Kai's virtue.

He took a closer look at the game and picked up a white piece from a box to his right with his right hand.

I pondered for a few seconds, then lowered it to the left of the black flag.

In this cave, there was only a very crisp sound, and Yang Kai was not to be outdone, his right hand took out a black chess piece from the box of chess pieces.

Holding it between his two fingers, he grabbed the sleeve of the hand in which he had held the flag, and just like that, he placed the black flag to the left of the piece that the old man had just placed.

Time is slowly passing, the clear spring in the cave is flowing slowly, and from time to time there is a ticking sound transmitting, which is the dew formed by the difference in temperature in the cave, dripping from the stone wall.

The two of them sat in the cave like this, and began round after round of confrontation. The situation on the chessboard looked very tense, Yang Kai frowned and thought from time to time, and sometimes suddenly realized.

The old man on the opposite side, as calm as ever, calmly picked up the chess pieces, and continued to lay out with Yang Kai's footsteps.

At this time, the sun outside is about to set, and this chess game is covered with black and white chess pieces.

When Yang Kai picked up the black chess pieces again, he found that there was no place to stay at all, and his eyes were fixed on this chessboard.

I wanted to find a way out of it, and I held the chess piece between two fingers in my hand, and I was trembling a little because I was too hard.

After about a minute or two, Yang Kai still couldn't find his life, and the old man opposite looked at him with a smile again.

Yang Kai said.

"Is there no road? Old gentleman. ”

"In this game, you lose, so you can stay here first, and go pick herbs with me tomorrow morning."

The old man said this.

When Yang Kai heard these words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he became excited, and the expression on his face was no longer so nervous.

This old gentleman meant that he was willing to teach him, but he didn't expect to do it so easily.

The joy in his heart was almost irrepressible.

The old gentleman on the other side, seeing him like this, couldn't help but sigh.
