Chapter 4 There is also a Shu Mountain

Xiaoshui woke up in the sound of selling, picked up the straw covering his body, stretched his waist, his eyes were bright, and the fruit also came out of the cloth bag, looking at the things around him with novelty, the whole broken house was only left with her and Guo'er, not even a beggar, sure enough, it was early to beg, Xiaoshui ate a broken fruit yesterday, and his stomach was already rumbling, so he went to the place where he washed things yesterday and washed his face, and then went to dig some wild vegetables where there were people on the side of the mountain, or went to the river to catch a fish to eat, She didn't dare to grab something from the beggars. I tidied up my clothes on the surface of the water again, and looked much better than yesterday, and then walked out into the street.

While walking, I thought about what I should do in the future, Sang Ma died, she couldn't wander the streets all day, she would starve to death one day, she should think of a place to go, the women's country in Ziliang Prefecture where they are located, there is the Ruan family who is good at making drugs, and there are as many as 1,000 people in the family, and intermarriage within the clan is just not accepting foreign daughters. This path is not going to work.

In addition, there are some sects that practice swords, the most powerful of which is the Xuanjian faction, they widely accept disciples from the four countries, teach swordsmanship, swordsmanship is unpredictable, the chosen person will include all her information, and the swordsmanship will be sent directly to the army of his country. To put it bluntly, it is to train guards for the four great monarchs, especially in recent years, human beings have suffered from the scourge of the demon clan, and there are more people who go to the Xuanjian Sect to learn swords. And the Xuanjian Sect has always been supported by the four great monarchs. Every year, the Four Great Monarchs will also select their children from the great families of various countries to send to the Xuanjian Sect.

It's just that the Xuanjian Sect is located between the Taiyu Kingdom and the Shangyuan Kingdom, the road is far away, the Baisi Country is located in the frozen land, the Ziliang Prefecture has four distinct seasons, the Taiyu Country is the country of the desert, and the Shangyuan Kingdom is the country of water. And to go to the Xuanjian Sect early, you have to pass through your own Ziliang Prefecture, which is simple, and the sun is hot in Taiyuguo, and it is not easy to hear that poisonous snakes and beasts are everywhere, and then you can reach the Cumulus Mountain Xuanjian Sect at the junction of the two countries.

There is no entanglement on the body like Xiao Shui, let alone a sharp weapon to protect him, it is difficult to reach the Xuanjian Sect smoothly, either starving to death on the way, or being bitten to death by monsters, or being bitten to death by the poisonous snakes of the Taiyu Kingdom.

"Take a look, take a look" A voice broke Xiao Shui's thoughts, and saw a large number of people in front of him, crowded with people, but he didn't know what was going on.

Xiaoshui stepped forward and pulled an uncle who sold radishes and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong ahead, it's so lively"

It's all blocking the road ahead, and it looks like something big must have happened.

"The notice of Shushan to accept apprentices" The uncle fiddled with the radish at will, and now everyone gathered in front, and now he can't sell the radish again.

"Shushan?"

"You don't know Shushan, that's the only sect of cultivating immortals" The uncle looked at Xiaoshui with a disbelieving face, in the world, but there is no one who doesn't know Shushan.

But what does it matter, it's just a notice, and it won't be surrounded by a bunch of people.

"You don't know this, this Shushan has always been isolated from the world, never in contact with people, it is said that there are very few people who have seen Shushan, they are all traveling in the clouds. This Shu Mountain, every three years to elect a disciple, the day of choosing an apprentice is set on April 20 every year, April 20th day under the mountain will be opened, all kinds of people can go up the mountain smoothly, it is said that only one person in a thousand people can be selected in, extremely strict. No, they came out and posted a notice, and everyone came up to see what the gods looked like."

Xiao Shui thanked the radish that sold the radish, and walked forward, there was no gap in the crowding, Xiao Shui stepped on the stone on the side, and there were a few people wearing white clothes, high hair bundles, long swords, long and jade, indeed outstanding.

A few people stood on a high place with a smile and looked at the people below. Xiao Shui was short and thin, picking up the crowd little by little, pinching his nose, and squeezing forward, almost to the last person to get to the front, and a man full of flesh was blocked in front, Xiao Shui couldn't get out, so he had to squeeze in the crowd and prick up his ears to listen.

"What is written on this?" A gruff voice

"I don't know!" The person next to him replied.

"Little fairy, what are you talking about!" A white-bearded old man stroked his beard and asked.

Tian Yu pointed to the notice and said with a smile: "The immortals on Shu Mountain accept disciples, and those who want to become immortals and cultivate are welcome to enter Shu Mountain."

"Really! Then I'm going to have a chance," said the big man at the front.

"Of course, of course," Tian Yu chuckled dryly.

"Does Shushan accept female disciples?"

A very thin woman's voice came from the noisy crowd below.

Tianyu stretched out his head to look, and after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see anyone, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

"Does Shushan accept female disciples?" Xiao Shui picked up the big man who was blocking him, exhaled a long breath, and was almost suffocated inside.

"Does Shushan accept female disciples?" Xiao Shui asked again.

Tianyu blinked his eyes to know that he was asking him, and then he came back to his senses and saw a girl in a light blue dress in a group, combing long braids, standing in the crowd without humility or arrogance, her eyes were starry, as bright and clear as the river water, and her eyes were brighter in the daylight, and the tears in her eyes were like crying to fall, her eyebrows were bent, her nose was small and tall, her skin was translucent and fair, and her body exuded a faint fragrance.

Xiao Shui was uncomfortable, and asked timidly: "Little master, does Shushan accept female disciples?" ”

Tianyu came back to his senses and said, "Accept, of course accept"

"But it's hard to say whether you can stay or not, we don't look at the background, ability, or age of the apprentices in Shushan, it depends on whether you are suitable," Streamer added later. After speaking, the streamer shook his head, he looks so good-looking, but it's a pity that he is a beggar, and their Shushan has also fallen to the point of accepting beggars as apprentices, thinking that he entered Shushan back then, but he went up the mountain with the post of the patriarch of the Qiao clan and the five beast spirit insects, even so he was stopped at the bottom of the mountain, so he was allowed to go up the mountain, and now it is okay, the enchantment under the mountain is wide open, and even beggars can go up the mountain to see the gods.

"So how do you know if it's right or not?"

"Then it will depend on what the immortal says."

"Then how did the Immortal know?" Xiao Shui Fu asked.

……… The streamer is dumb

"It depends on your fate with the immortal clan" Tian Yu said, Tian Yu has been cultivating in Shu Mountain for many years, and there are not a few people who have come to cultivate immortals and apprentices, but cultivating immortals looks at fate, and some people will still cheat even if they pass the three levels.

Combined with the disciples who have stayed over the years, Tian Yu has summed up one thing, which is the eye edge.

Xiao Shui nodded, bowed and said, "Thank you, little fairy" and left, but it was much easier than when she came in, and people consciously made a way for her to come out.

The Xuanjian faction has a long way, in the past to cross three countries, it is said that it is also a three-year apprentice, and the fixed time is the same as Shushan, but there are many people, and it is said that most of the people who can go can be stayed. Three years of sword practice, that is, it is more difficult to go down the mountain, it is said that people and hungry snake demons are locked together, you fight with the snake demon, kill it and you can go down the mountain, if you can't beat it, you will be eaten but no one will save, the people of this sect will only think you are ashamed, this is also the reason why the world admires the Xuanjian faction, they are strong in martial arts, and the swordsmanship is as fast as lightning.

Xiao Shui thought about it or forget it, let's go to Shu Mountain, she just ran out of the fox demon group, but she didn't want to be eaten by the snake demon again in three years, after making up her mind, Xiao Shui decided to go to Shu Mountain tomorrow, Shu Mountain Road is not difficult to walk, if the Xuanjian faction of Cumulus Mountain is located in the south of the world, Shu Mountain is just the opposite of it, located in the east, you only need to pass through the frozen Baisi Country and then pass through the thorn forest for hundreds of miles to reach the foot of Shu Mountain.

At the moment, he can't go to this outfit on his body, and he will freeze to death on the road, Xiaoshui decided to go home again, at least take some basic things, change into the tattered clothes on his body, bring some food, and bring another knife, otherwise he won't be able to cross the thorn forest.

It was not yet noon, and it was only an hour to walk quickly from the town to their house, and as soon as they said they could go, the little waterside ran back along the nearest road.

The thatched hut where Sang Ma and the others live is still the same as when she left, the blood stains in front of the door and the torn clothes of Sang Ma are scattered on the side of the road at random, the courtyard door is wide open, Xiaoshui puts the fruit in first, the fruit is an animal, can feel the existence of the same kind, judge their distance according to the smell, Xiaoshui is guarding the door, after a while the fruit jumped out, Xiaoshui went in, the chicken in the chicken pen is only left with chicken feathers, and the bedding and clothes in the house are also bitten and scattered, fortunately, their clothes are placed inside, and they are not bitten, Xiaoshui quickly changed into clean clothes, brought one or two slightly thicker clothes to wrap up, and still went to the firewood room to pick a sharp knife to bring it, as well as cracked and long-haired steamed buns, and couldn't bite it, Xiaoshui soaked the steamed buns in the water and ate a little, and wanted to fill his stomach first.

Xiao Shui knelt in front of the door and bowed a few times, made a mound with the clothes that Sang Ma loved to wear on weekdays, found a piece of wood, wanted to engrave for a while but didn't know what to engrave, in fact, she didn't know anything about Sang Ma, only knew that her name was Sang Ma, her husband was from Baisi country, and he never came back when he was hunting for a day, and he was alone since then, until Sang Ma was washing clothes by the river, and saw that the rushing river came over to save her, and it was not her biological mother, if she wrote the mother of Xiaoshui, if her biological mother did not die, Isn't she cursing her, and then think about it, Xiaoshui is not her original name, Sang Ma said that Xiao Shui was a child given to her by the river god, so she took the name Xiao Shui, and then engraved Sang Ma, the mother of Xiao Shui, with confidence.

and burned the clothes he had changed into at the grave, Sang Ma was still protecting her at the last moment, and let her know that she was safe and at ease.
