Chapter 9: Too Long Steps
After Meng Yilu left, although the crowd was in a commotion, everyone looked at the glowing formation on the long steps, and knew that it would not be so easy to go up, so no one was willing to be the first bird to bear the brunt.
Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, Bo Yanhe tidied up his long gauze hat and turned around and walked towards the long steps.
Her move naturally attracted everyone's attention, among which Lan He saw her walking towards the long steps without hesitation, turned her head and said to the people around her, and quickly chased after her.
"Girl! Girl! ”
A familiar voice came from behind him, Bo Yanhe didn't look back, only said lightly: "My name is Bo Yanhe."
Hearing her words, Lan He silently recited her name several times in his heart, and caught up with her and walked with her to the long steps.
Before the two of them arrived at the first formation, they both hesitated for a moment, and Lan He looked at her, as if waiting for her to speak.
Bo Yanhe awkwardly turned his gaze to the side, avoiding his face, and said, "Although I don't know what will happen after entering this formation, no matter what happens, there will be no danger to my life."
Lan He nodded and asked her with a smile, "Then let's go in?"
Bo Yanhe suddenly felt that the way he smiled made her a familiar person, but for a while she couldn't remember where this familiarity was.
She took the half-eaten pancake out of her baggage, lowered her head slightly and nibbled a few bites, then put it back again: "Let's go!"
Lan He saw her act like this, and immediately laughed dumbly.
The eyes of the crowd gathered at the foot of the mountain were on the two of them at this time, seeing that they stopped, they thought they were retreating, but they didn't think that the next second, they saw half of the baked cake appear in the hands of the thinner boy.
"What are these two people doing? What about going up and playing? If you don't keep going, what's the matter, do you still want us to give a reward? ”
The man next to him glanced at You Gongzi, his eyes quickly turned, and then hooked the corners of his lips and looked at him flatteringly: "Yes, yes, yes!" Where is there a braver person here than You Gongzi! It's all guts! ”
You Gongzi was very happy when he got the flattery that suited his heart, and he took the words without modesty: "That's nature!"
The man glanced at him again, but he didn't let him see it, he glanced at the man standing opposite, and after the two made eye contact, the man nodded knowingly.
You Gongzi was still proud, so he didn't pay attention to their actions, and when he coughed and came back to his senses, he heard a sound of laughter coming from a little farther away from him.
"In that case, why don't You Gongzi take the lead for all of us!"
“……”
Hearing his words, the corners of You Gongzi's mouth twitched a few times, and his face was full of embarrassment.
This You Gongzi's name is You Ziliang, and he has two sisters above him, he is the youngest, plus his father has a son in his later years, and the family is naturally very spoiled by him.
You Ziliang was born in a rich family, and he recognized a truth since he was a child, there is nothing in this world that cannot be bought with money!
So, when his father found him a master and taught him martial arts, he gave the master three times more money than his father, and asked him to pack up his things and leave Youfu immediately.
Originally, Master You was very angry, but seeing that his son's mind was not on that martial arts, he thought about it for a long time, and finally found him a few people with strong martial arts to protect him, so he didn't continue to force it.
It was precisely because of his decision that You Ziliang became the only unarmed waste among the sons who came here with him.
You Ziliang knew in his heart that they were saying this on purpose, but in order not to lose face, he walked up the long steps hard, shouting loudly as he walked: "Go, go!" Who's afraid of whom! ”
Because he didn't have martial arts, the closer he got to the formation, the more he felt that there was a pressure pressing on him, so he walked with his head down all the way.
When he reached the edge of the long staircase, he forced his head up.
After this look, I found that Lan He and the two had already had three formations.
At this time, on the Yunshui Peak of Yangxu Palace, a man in a mysterious robe stood in front of the closed door, sighing with a wry smile on his face.
"Master, do you still not want to see me?"
His tone was so soft that it almost turned into a puddle of water, but the door in front of him was still closed, and there was not even a sound inside.
"Huh! I know what you mean in your heart, but you ...... Isn't it too ruthless for me?! ”
“……”
"Ever since I said those words, you've been avoiding me! You let my brother tell me that you don't want to see me, okay! I packed my luggage and left Yangxu Palace overnight! That's three years! He bent down slightly, his fingers trembling and touched his heart, "Master, do you know how I have come over in the past three years?" ”
"When I first returned home, I was thinking about it all the time...... I thought you could send me a message and let me come back, but it's been three years! In the past three years, I have received countless transmissions, and none of them are yours! ”
As he spoke, he laughed, "Master, do you know how happy I was when I received the roster for the general election of my disciples? I thought you were going to let me come back, so I looked forward to the day when the gate was opened! Finally! Finally the mountain gate opened! Can...... Can ......"
His eyes were red, and he lowered his head tremblingly: "It turns out that you don't want me to come back!"
In the cabinet, a man in a plain white robe looked at the woman in front of the desk who was reading ancient books expressionlessly, and whispered: "Don't you really see him?"
The woman did not take her eyes off the ancient books, and said indifferently: "No."
The man shook his head and said helplessly: "Senior Sister Yaoxi, what Emperor He said is not wrong at all, you are really ruthless!"
Yaoxi froze for a moment when she heard this, then looked up at him.
"After all, it's your apprentice who grew up, are you really willing to let him be so sad?"
"Senior brother has always understood me, why would he say such a thing today?" Yaoxi looked at the senior brother who was sitting in front of her, staring at her without blinking, waiting for her to answer, Wei Yuanzi, the palace master of Yangxu Palace.
"I forgot for a while that my junior sister has always been this weak character for so many years. But I clearly remember that you used to be different from Emperor He, could it be that Senior Brother remembered it wrongly? ”
"Senior brother is not mistaken, I did have some differences with him before, but it was all because he was sent by senior brother, and there was no other reason."
Wei Yuanzi's gaze wandered over her for a long time, and he originally had something to ask her, but because of her answer, he couldn't say those words.
After a long time, there was no sound outside.
Wei Yuanzi got up and tidied up his robe, bent down and smoked the ancient books in Yaoxi's hand.
Yaoxi looked up at him, waiting for him to speak.
"Since you don't want to see him, then I'll send him away!"
"Hmm."
In front of the mountain gate.
"Meng Yilu, what do you say the master is doing now! It's going to be dark soon, and he doesn't care about us! ”
Meng Yilu glanced at the villain who was going back and forth, walking left and right in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's not a big person, and it's not a milk doll, and you have to be in charge of it, what does it look like!"
The little man stopped, walked up to him in two steps, approached him, and said, "No, no, no! You're a lot old! But I'm only five years old! It's not just a milk doll! ”
Meng Yilu: "......"
"Huh? Why don't you talk anymore!? ”
"Say what?"
"Say whatever you want! I'm not your mouth, I don't care what you say! ”
“……”
Meng Yilu drew his long sword and stabbed at him quickly.
"Ahh!!hh Homicide...... Wrong! Killed! Killed! The villain cried out into a puff of smoke and disappeared in front of him.
Meng Yilu put away his sword, looked up at the tree on the side, pinched the trick with his fingertips, and landed on the tree in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that it's getting late, it's time for him to rest for a while!
After he closed his eyes, the villain reappeared where they had been.
Just as he was about to fly up the tree, the voice of the Meng Yilu suddenly sounded.
"Qingheng, stay honest, or your appearance and height will never recover!"
The villain instantly gritted his teeth when he heard this, he looked at him viciously, and then spat on him.
"Squeak-"
Emperor He raised his head fiercely.
When Wei Yuanzi came out of the room, the first thing he saw was that his eyes lit up with an expectant look, and then the light in his eyes dimmed instantly, and the anticipation on his face disappeared.
"Master." Di He screamed faintly.
Strictly speaking, Wei Yuanzi had taught Di He for seven years, and he was also Di He's master, so he always called him that.
Emperor He didn't know when he knelt on the ground, he lowered his head and looked injured, like an abandoned puppy.
Wei Yuanzi walked up to him, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and then cast a spell to pull him up directly.
"Di He, your master has already gone into retreat, and it won't help if you continue to stay here!"
Di He raised his head and looked at him confusedly: "Then where should I go now?"
Wei Yuanzi put his palm on his back, and while asking him about his situation in the past few years, he pushed him forward.
When Bo Yanhe passed the last formation, it was already the second day.
Lan He passed with her, and when the two of them had walked the last stone staircase, they saw in the distance a Meng Yi Ou with her back to the trunk of a tree, and a girl in a pink and white gauze skirt.
The girl who saw them first was the girl, who shook Meng Yi's arm excitedly: "Meng Yiyu! Meng Dividle! Someone is coming up! Came up safe and sound! ”
Meng Yilu opened his eyes in a daze, and then closed his eyes again: "What a fuss!" That formation on the long steps is not something that can hurt people in the first place! It's just to see if they have the courage! ”
The distance between the three of them was not very far, so his words naturally fell on the ears of the two of them.
"I see! I didn't feel anything when I said how I entered the formation! Lan He looked back at the few heads on the long steps and couldn't help but laugh, "This first test is over!" ”
Bo Yanhe frowned when she heard his and Meng Yiyu's words, and she looked back at the bright formation on the long steps, with a blank expression.
