Chapter 103 Uninvited Guest
The relationship between the elder and the saint has always been very delicate. Sometimes they look out for each other, but there are also times when they resist each other.
Elders are generally made up of a few wizards at the bottom of the rankings. None of them alone can replace the Holy Maiden, but together, the Holy Maiden is no match for them.
The Wurs have relied on such a complex relationship to maintain so-called democracy and equality for hundreds of years.
As for how many elders should there be, there has never been a fixed statement, just that there should not be too many elders and not too few.
At most, there was a spectacular scene of nine elders reigning at the same time, but later on, because fewer and fewer people passed the water mirror test, the elders basically stabilized at about five to seven.
Seeing their quarrelsome appearance, the saint also thought it was really funny. Even the horsemen who have no culture and no magic in the countryside will not be like this, as a wizard, a person with psychic skills, they have so little grace.
The saint finally reconciled, and then asked, "Have you quarreled enough?" If anyone thinks that everyone else is wrong, then he should quit the ranks of the elders and not make a lot of noise here. ”
The second elder immediately stood up and said, "The saint in white, don't think that you are the saint in white, we are all afraid of you." I'm telling you, the elders can take you down just as much! ”
As he spoke, he took a stride and made it look like he was going to fight.
The white-clothed saintess had seen all kinds of disputes, even the smoke of gunpowder, where was it so easy to be frightened by this thing, and suddenly slapped the table, "In order for you to be able to unite, I have decided to add two more elder seats!" ”
Increasing the number of elders? It's not scientific.
You must know that the elders of this witch clan need to be recommended by others, not to mention, even if they rely on their ability, it is not easy. They need to be tested by a hydroscope.
Because although the seats of elders are said to be side by side, there are often conflicts of interest between many different elders.
Since they are elders, it is of course impossible to fight with each other. Therefore, the leader of the Wu clan had set such a rule before, and only those who had passed the water mirror test could be elders.
The water mirror test is very harsh, and the people who have passed the test have very strong martial arts.
Seeing that each other had such powerful martial arts, the elders also had a sense of awe for each other, and they didn't dare to make mistakes easily.
Several elders now heard that the white-clothed saintess was going to recommend a candidate, and it was estimated that they were the ones who supported her, so they were naturally very opposed.
"We will not accept what has not been tested by the water mirror," the second elder maintained his usual style of resistance.
The white-clothed saintess smiled slightly and said, "Of course, isn't this just preparing for them to pass the water mirror test?" ”
The other elders saw that the white-clothed saintess was ready for everything, and it was estimated that they were also prepared, and if they wanted to use barbaric intimidation, it was estimated that they would not succeed.
So, you look at me, I look at you, and they don't speak for a long time.
"To allow them to participate in the hydroscope test, we must first agree to it!" The second elder began to stir up trouble again.
The white-clothed saint shook her head and said with a smile: "The second elder is really joking, this water mirror test, anyone can participate, you can be a referee, you can supervise, but you said that you have to go through your consent, and then you see that others are amazing, you are not allowed to participate, so how can we proceed?" ”
The fourth elder nodded: "That's right, what the Holy Maiden said is right, no one has any reason to refuse people to participate in the water mirror test. If you had to pick someone to take the test, you might not be among the elders now! ”
The other three elders expressed their support.
The second elder was helpless, so he had to say, "Then we also need to know who it is!" ”
The holy woman in white went to the temple and brought the two young men out and brought them to them.
The Great Elder smiled and said, "Your Bai family is really genetically strong. ”
When Pak Tai Sin brought the white-clothed saintess to participate in the test, many people complained that he went through the back door and introduced people from his own family.
However, this Wu clan has never cared about these sect disputes. Because it is better to be conquered by a powerful force than to let a weak person rule over you.
The second elder wanted to say something about the dog's tail and mink, but was held down by the other elders.
The Great Elder smiled and said, "Sure enough, it's terrifying, young man, let's go to the entrance of the water mirror together and watch your performance." ”
With that, he followed the white-clothed saintess to the back door of the temple and started the journey of the water mirror.
The observation deck was located at the back of the temple, and it was designed so that the leaders could be condescending to see their situation and rescue the students who were in trouble.
When the white-clothed saint saw this place, she was condescending, and below was an abyss, and the previous staircase had collapsed because of its age.
She then brought Xu Langyin to the front and asked, "Are you willing to go down there and pass the test of the water mirror?" ”
Xu Langyin stiffened his head and said, "Yes." ”
Several elders laughed when they saw it: "Miss Xu, you have to think clearly, look at it, there is an abyss down here, the stairs are gone, I'm afraid that in the first level, you can be heroic and righteous!" ”
Xu Langyin originally thought it was just his own illusion, but he didn't expect it to be really an abyss, although what the elder said was not necessarily right, but how many people could be more powerful than the elder?
The white-clothed saint hurriedly said, "There are no stairs now, I'll send her down!" ”
was about to hug Xu Langyin, but was stopped by the three elders: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, you can't be a man without rules, since it is said that it is done independently, it should include the independent start and the end of independence, you can't let people help you complete it like this!" ”
Xu Langyin also broke free from the embrace of the white-clothed saintess, stood hard to the bottom, and said, "Yes, I can do it, don't help me, saint!" ”
As he spoke, he was ready to jump down.
However, the saintess grabbed Xu Langyin: "Slow, you haven't learned light skills yet, if you go on like this, you will be crushed immediately!" ”
Several elders immediately began to coax: "Haha, it seems that this is a shame for heaven." In the past, when we went down, we had stairs, but now there are no stairs, and God doesn't want you to add any more elders. ”
As he spoke, the second elder actually danced.
The white-clothed saint looked at the elders and asked, "What do you want?" You can't let people jump, can you? ”
The Great Elder hurriedly said, "Holy Maiden, don't be impulsive. Now this scene, no one thought that it would be like this, either we wait for more than ten years, and you will come back after this staircase is repaired, or ......"
The holy woman looked at the Great Elder and asked, "Or what?" ”
The Great Elder said, "You can let her jump, and then, if you pick her up and fail, if you fall straight up, then leave it to fate!" ”
As he spoke, the Great Elder smiled hideously.
The holy woman looked at this great elder, although she was usually very honest and honest, she didn't expect that when it came to interests, she would become so bitter and mean.
So, she looked at the abyss and was in a dilemma.
Several elders laughed and said, "There's no way, right?" But it's not in a hurry, if you figure it out, and then call us to supervise, do you say it's okay? ”
The white-clothed saint looked at the appearance of the second elder's thief eyebrows, and couldn't wait to chop him into meat sauce. However, as a saint in white, she couldn't be too graceless, so she tried to stay calm, and then watched them continue this farce.
Xu Langyin looked at the white-clothed saint and said angrily, "Why don't you let me jump?" Even if I'm dead, I'm willing! ”
The white-clothed saint put her hands on Xu Langyin's shoulders: "Silly boy, mother won't let you die, you have to succeed, there are many ways, but you must not fight with your life!" ”
Xu Langyin expressed great resentment, looking at the cliff, feeling as if it was already his own thing, but he was taken away by someone.
The white-clothed saint laughed and said to Xu Langyin: "Don't worry, my mother will go to repair this staircase for you tonight, you are my mother's only flesh and blood, my mother would rather let you stay by her side and achieve nothing, rather than let you fight this fearful Rausch with your life." ”
As he spoke, he stood on the edge of the cliff, looking for his own spirit stone, ready to fill the pit below.
Yan Wanjun saw that the white-clothed saintess was filling in the pit, and walked over and quipped, "Saintess, what are you doing here?" Do you want to do Jingwei reclamation too? ”
The saint in white was angry and funny, and looked at Yan Wanjun: "Haha, you are really joking, is this the sea?" I know the spells. ”
Yan Wanjun shook her head and said to the white-clothed saintess: "Offended, I didn't mean to mock you, although your actions like this look very smart, but in fact, there is not much difference from Jingwei reclamation." ”
The white-clothed saint was a little deflated, and looked at Yan Wanjun: "Then tell me, if you are Jingwei, what are you going to do?" ”
Yan Wanchuan looked at the abyss below, in fact, there are still scattered stairs, but they are different from usual, and the current stairs have a gap that is a little higher than a person.
Then, pointing to the place, he said, "Actually, we can jump from here, and then everything will be fine?" ”
The white-clothed saint frowned and said to Yan Wanjun, "Do you think I haven't thought of it? This place is okay, but it's a water mirror, you know? If you are in the water mirror, you can't jump, there is a lot of resistance, and you can move freely in the water mirror, as if walking on flat ground, then thank God. ”
Yan Wanjun looked at the gap below and asked, "Isn't it okay for two people to go down?" ”
The white-clothed saint frowned: "The second elder said just now, if the two of them go down, even if they lose, they have to start all over again!" ”
"What a!" Yan Wanjuan couldn't help but scold.
