Chapter 7: Gathering at the West Wind
Lingchuan slowly opened his eyes, only to see that the sky outside was still pitch black, he was still in a beautifully decorated room, Yunzhi's head was still resting on his chest, and the two were still lying side by side on the small bed......
The duration of day and night on the Spirit Seeking Continent is about the same, a day and night have a total of twenty hours, and one hour is about equal to more than two hours on the earth. It seems that less than an hour has passed since the two of them fell asleep.
"Brother Lingchuan, are you awake....."
Just when Lingchuan was puzzled, Yunzhi said in a daze.
"It's still early, you can go back to sleep," Lingchuan touched Yunzhi's head and said.
"Hmm~" Yun Zhi replied sleepily, and then fell asleep on Lingchuan's chest.
"What's going on?"
Lingchuan couldn't help frowning, he had been awake on the earth for nearly sixteen hours, according to the time ratio between the earth and the soul seeking continent day by hour, according to it, it should have been more than ten days now.
But looking at the current situation, an hour has passed at most on the Spirit Seeking Continent.
"No......" Lingchuan suddenly thought of something.
"One hour on Earth, one day on the Soul Continent, is the proportion of time I spend asleep on Earth. ”
"Could it be that when I am awake on the earth, the proportion of time is exactly the opposite? In other words, I am awake on the earth for one day, and only one hour has passed in the Spirit Seeking Continent!"
"In this way, it is completely explained!"
"No wonder, no wonder Yunzhi is still just asleep, no wonder my chest is pressed by Yunzhi, but I don't feel soreness, this is because my consciousness has left the Spirit Seeking Continent for less than an hour......"
"Great!"
Lingchuan was excited, and his body couldn't help but move.
"Huh?" Yun Zhi opened his misty eyes, his face puzzled.
"I'm a little excited at the thought of going to Westwind tomorrow, so you can go back to sleep. ”
"Brother Ye Tian, you ......can sleep quickly, too" Yunzhi fell asleep again before he could finish his words.
"When you fall asleep on Earth, Earth Hour, Soul Continent for a day!"
"On the contrary, when you are awake on the earth, the earth is one day, and the spirit continent is one hour!"
"This time ratio is really ingenious, on the one hand, when I am asleep on the earth, my consciousness travels to Ye Tian, and I can spend a relatively long time on the Spirit Seeking Continent; on the other hand, when I am awake on the earth, my consciousness will not leave the Spirit Seeking Continent for too long, which means that Ye Tian will not be in a coma for too long. ”
"In this way, I can experience two lives perfectly......
After being awake on the earth for more than ten hours, Lingchuan was still worried, more than ten days had passed on the Spirit Seeking Continent, but Ye Tian had been unconscious, and was in a coma. Yunzhi was anxious because of this, and then discovered the abnormality, and more seriously, Ye Tian's body was damaged due to a long coma and could never wake up again.
Now it seems that these worries are superfluous, because on the Spirit Seeking Continent, only an hour has passed!
If you think about it carefully, such an ingenious time ratio seems to have been specially tailored for him, in order to make him alone, to be able to have two identities in two worlds perfectly.
"This is a bit too coincidental, it's not like a coincidence in the dark, could it be that someone is manipulating all this? someone wants me to have Ye Tian's identity without being noticed?"
"But why me? I'm far away on Earth?"
"When I first crossed here, Yunzhi mentioned that there was a vision of heaven and earth not long ago, and after that, Ye Tian and her fell into a coma. ”
"In this way, the vision of heaven and earth happened when I crossed over, and there must be a relationship between this!"
"It seems that you have to find a way to ask Yunzhi, what kind of vision of heaven and earth was at that time, and you can't just pass through it in a daze......"
Lingchuan thought about it and fell asleep unconsciously.
In the early morning of the next day, Yunzhi and Ye Tian said goodbye to the young couple and urged them to rush straight to Xifeng Town.
It is said that the town of Zephyr is located on the edge of a vast desert, and because of the perennial westerly wind, it is named Westwind Town.
As we go west, the scene on the road becomes more and more desolate, with streams becoming rare and green plants becoming less and less. At a glance, the Gobi Desert is mostly around, but the wind is getting stronger and stronger.
After nearly three or four hours of driving, a rough and solemn city appeared in front of the two of them.
There is an uneven earthen city wall directly east of the city, and the city gate has long disappeared, but the city wall above the gate hole is engraved with the words 'West Wind Town'.
There are not many people in and out of the town, and it seems that the life of the residents here is not very satisfactory, and they are all dull-skinned and dusty.
Lingchuan and Yunzhi led Yao Yao into the city, and the passers-by didn't pay much attention to them.
When he was about to walk to the square in the city, Yun Zhi patted Lingchuan's shoulder excitedly, "Brother Ye Tian, look, the big brother who gave us the dagger is in front!"
"Which, which?"
Lingchuan naturally hadn't seen that person, and there happened to be several people in the square in front of him, so he pretended not to see it and asked questions.
"Oops, it's the big brother in the white robe," Yunzhi pointed with a finger.
"Oh, see, we've finally arrived!" Lingchuan couldn't help but sigh.
I saw the young man in the white robe, who was about twenty years old, with clear eyebrows and a high-spirited look, and his hands behind his back were very energetic.
In addition to the young man, there were six other people in the square, and the more conspicuous one was an older one, dressed casually, squatting on the stone platform in the middle of the square, holding a wine gourd and raising his head to drink.
The other five were not very old, and sat respectfully in the open space. Come to think of it, the five of them, like Ye Tian and Yunzhi, are all people with spiritual seeds who have been recruited.
Lingchuan and Yunzhi hurried forward, and just wanted to bow to the white-clothed young man, but he waved his hand to interrupt him, and then motioned for the two to sit down.
"That's a big score!" Ling Chuan glanced at the young man in white and muttered in a low voice.
The other five people sitting in the open space, all of whom were not very old, smiled and nodded when they saw the arrival of a newcomer, but there seemed to be some confusion in their eyes. And the middle-aged man with the wine gourd didn't even look at the two of them.
Together with Yunzhi and Lingchuan, there were already seven people sitting in the open space at this time, five men and two women. Because the young man in white didn't speak, several people didn't dare to talk casually, just sat scattered.
Judging from the direction where several people were sitting, except for Lingchuan and Yunzhi, the other five people should not know each other.
The sun was sinking in the west, and the sky was turning dark red.
After a while, the young man in white bowed down and asked the middle-aged man who was serving a wine gourd.
The middle-aged man didn't put down the wine gourd, and answered vaguely in his mouth.
"It seems that this drunkard is also a member of the Red Forest Sect," Ling Chuan said secretly in his heart.
The white-clothed young man then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I am the sixty-ninth generation descendant of the Honglin Sect, surnamed Yun, you can call me Senior Brother Yun. ”
"You've all come from far and wide, so I don't need to say anything more. This time, I was ordered by my master to go down the mountain with a number of brothers and sisters to go down to various places and select people with spiritual seeds. ”
"Many senior brothers, it seems that this team recruiting disciples is more than this team. Come to think of it, although there is no one in ten thousand people with spiritual seeds, but there are hundreds of cities within a radius of tens of millions, it should not be difficult to choose hundreds" Lingchuan said secretly in his heart.
"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my teacher's order and found nine, and now the hour has come, seven people have arrived, and the other two are disqualified. ”
Yun Zhi heard Senior Brother Yun say this, and smiled slyly at Ling Chuan, which naturally meant that "Fortunately, I arrived in time!"
"It seems that it is not easy for the Honglin Sect to select disciples, even if they have a spirit seed, if they are too late, they will be directly deprived of their qualifications" Lingchuan muttered to himself.
"Several people with spiritual seeds are naturally the only ones in ten thousand dragons and phoenixes. However, possessing a spirit seed is not the only criterion for the Honglin Sect to recruit heirs. When I gave you the tokens, I said that you should not wait for your relatives and friends to send you off, and you must go on the road alone and arrive in this west wind town within ten days. ”
Except for a few people who had already known each other and had to go together, the other five had traveled thousands of miles alone. ”
Speaking of this, the other five teenagers couldn't help but look at Yunzhi and Lingchuan, and the individual people in Senior Brother Yun's mouth were naturally the two of them.
It is extremely rare for people like Lingchuan and Yunzhi to be like brothers and sisters themselves, and also have spirit seeds at the same time.
"Do you know the reasoning of this arrangement?" After the young man in white asked, no one in the room answered.
"Just like in class, the teacher asks questions, and few ...... dare to speak," Lingchuan said secretly in his heart.
"None of you are under the age of fifteen, and you must have never traveled far, so walking alone is also an exercise for you, exercising your ability to walk alone and make decisions. ”
"I don't need to say much about the importance and magic of spirituality, if I can't do it alone and make decisions as a spiritual successor, then how can I bear the burden of defending my fellow people?"
"The seven of you arrived at Zephyr on time and have passed the first test. However, then, you must pass the second test before you are eligible to become the initiation descendants of the Red Forest Sect......"
"Brother Ye Tian, we ......" Yunzhi asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, we're no worse than others," Lingchuan hurriedly replied.
Even though he said this, he still couldn't help frowning, "There is still a test, so troublesome?"
"It's better to be compulsory, no matter what, at least you have the qualifications to learn......"
