Time flies, time flies.

Ten years later.

A marginal town.

"Hurry up, I said you should go faster, when will you get there?"

On the street corner, several young men and women hurried away.

"Do you think we don't want to? Okay, don't talk about it, it's going to be there soon! By the way, are you saying this thing is true or false? Who is going to spread it?"

"Rumors, no, you know, I came all the way here for this!"

"It shouldn't be, I heard that all the young heroes from all over the world have come in the past few days!"

"Whew~ scare me, it's good to be true! At least we have a chance!"

Not long after, there were suddenly more people in front, and the eyes of several young people suddenly lit up.

"It's here, it's here, it doesn't seem to have started yet, let's go and sign up now!"

"Yes, yes, sign up!Haha, I didn't expect us to have this day, you must know that it is the Jade Carving Pavilion! If you pass the assessment this time and successfully enter the Jade Carving Pavilion, even if you just become one of the miscellaneous servants, it will be a step to the sky!"

"Miscellaneous servants? What are you dreaming about? The miscellaneous servants of the Jade Carving Building have long been recruited, this time it is a laborer, I heard that there was an accident some time ago, and the laborers of the Jade Carving Building died in a team, so this is recruiting!"

"Haha, don't worry about this, okay? Even if it's a laborer, it's a beautiful difference! Who doesn't know that the laborers of the Jade Carving Building are 10 taels of silver a day? And the work of the Jade Carving Building is very easy, this is a real beauty difference! And who knows if we will have good luck, in case we are promoted again, then don't you say ......?"

"That's right...... No, is it too early for you to think about this? Now we haven't even passed the exam!"

......

Jade Carving Building, a three-story wooden building that towers over the town, is not splendid, but it is also antique.

At this time, inside the jade carving building.

"Xiaoyu, how is the matter going, is there a result?"

In a spacious living room, a beautiful girl with a graceful demeanor dressed in a black dress, looked at the bustle outside the window and below, and asked another woman behind her: "Who is the person who dares to touch our jade carving building?"

The woman behind her was half-hunched and replied: "Miss Hui, I have found out that it is the Jade Hand Hall in Fucheng." ”

"Jade Hand Hall?" the girl frowned, followed by a sudden thought, "Is that the power of the guy who came to our Jade Carving Building some time ago to look for trouble?"

"Yes. The woman behind her said respectfully.

"Understood. After a moment of silence, the girl shook her head, "It's really a lot of guts, Miss Ben didn't move them, they actually came to the door by themselves." ”

"Miss, look ......"

The girl raised her hand, "Let someone deal with it, you can find out this kind of trivial matter later, and tell it directly over there." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!" the woman said solemnly with a cold face on the spot.

Wait until the woman leaves.

The girl looked down again: "Have you been in retreat for ten years? Master has also been in retreat for a year, right? I don't know what happened to Master?"

Thinking of the master, the girl couldn't help but be in a daze for a while.

Sumeru, the girl took a deep breath and shook her head: "It's not time yet, since the master said that he would retreat for a year, and he must not be disturbed during the period, then I can't disturb it...... However, it's almost ......."

Turning around, the girl walked towards the backyard.

"Miss. ”

Along the way, everyone who met the girl stood respectfully aside and saluted her.

In a few moments, the girl came to a strange place.

This place is a garden, but this garden is not an ordinary garden.

From a distance, there are flowers and trees in the garden, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, everything is available.

However, when you get closer, you will find that in fact, all this is not ordinary.

Whether it is flowers and trees, or pavilions and pavilions, etc., they are all sculptures.

Step by step, the girl walked among the flowers that would not wither, and the flowers that were originally just dead things began to bloom, and the fragrance of the flowers was fragrant, swaying in the wind, and in the pond, the fish were jumping and splashing......

"Flowers always bloom, water flows, my carving realm, should be qualified, right?"

The girl looked at all this and smiled gently.

Coming to a pavilion, sitting on the edge of the pavilion, the girl looked at a work on the stone table that she had only completed yesterday, and was a little distracted.

Sumeru, she took out another work and put it aside: "Sister, do you look like it?"

It's also strange to say that the originally empty body, at the moment when the girl spoke, a figure suddenly condensed out, and the figure that appeared was also staring at the work and nodded: "Like." ”

The girl laughed, and kept the figure beside her, and her white and tender cheeks kept rubbing on the other party's face: "Hehe, my sister said that if it looks like that, it's no problem!"

The figure held by him seemed a little helpless, "Can you let go first?"

"No, you're my sister, if I don't hug you, I'll take whom? By the way, in half a month, Master should be out of the customs, right? Let's go see Master together!"

"Good ......"

A few days later.

Outside the jade carving building, a strange old man appeared.

"Is this the Jade Carving Building?" the old man looked up at the plaque engraved with the words 'Jade Carving Building', and there was a hint of complexity in his eyes.

When the old man stepped into it, he saw a lot of sculptures, as rumored, and they were completely different from other places where sculptures were bought and sold, and the sculptures in this place, whether in terms of quality or type, could be said to be unique.

Coming to the first stand-alone booth, the old man stopped and stared.

"This should be a sculpture of the hermit of Donglin, right?"

Donglin hermit, a powerful figure whose strength has reached the heavenly level, and its strength is secondary, it is rumored that he has lived in seclusion in Donglin in his early years, living in seclusion with mountains and rivers, silently studying chess skills, and in chess arts, he is superb, and there is no opponent in a radius of thousands of miles.

However, in the Jade Carving Building, this sculpture is only in the outermost.

"It's ...... Sword grass?"

The second sculpture, the old man was stunned when he saw it.

"It seems that the rumors are true, the master here once saw the sword grass by chance, this kind of strange sword intent, only the sword grass can have. ”

Sword grass, this is an extremely rare plant in the whole world, it is rumored that after the fall of the kendo master, its corpse bones are accompanied by the supernatural elixir, the average martial artist can step into the kendo when he knows it, and those who have already practiced kendo can use it to go further, and it is a treasure that all kendo practitioners crave.

Third, fourth, fifth......

The old man was not in a hurry, watching step by step, and in front of each sculpture, he would stop for a long time.

This is also another peculiarity of the jade carving building.

The jade carving building makes a living from carving, but never sells carved works, but any one of the works can be said to be the best of the best, and its means of making profits are even more imaginative, and it is actually to collect guests' tickets for a living.

All the guests who come to the Jade Carving Building only need to pay a small part of the silver to enter the Jade Carving Building to appreciate these carvings, and when the business hours are over, they have to leave.

For the next few days, the old man came almost every day, and he mingled among the other guests, unobtrusively.

By the time of the fifth day, the old man had already reached the second floor.

The second floor, however, is different.

If it is a sculpture on the first floor, anyone can see it as much as they want as long as they pay the ticket.

Then the works on the second floor are not so simple.

On the second floor, there are ten rooms, and none of them has a sculpture, and guests who want to view these sculptures will have to pay an extra silver tael for any of them.

And this payment is not constant, but incremental!

The first room, 100 taels of silver.

The second room, 200 taels of silver.

Room 3......

It's all in double increments!

And silver is not the key, after all, for many martial artists, there is no shortage of silver!

What's even more unbelievable!

Legend has it that since the birth of the Jade Carving Building ten years ago, no one has seen all of these ten rooms!

That's right!

It's ten years, not a single one!

According to records, the highest record was only to the fifth room!

"It is rumored that the works in these ten rooms are strange and strange, and it takes a lot of energy to appreciate them, but they are the works of the master of the landlord here, and I don't know if they are true or false, let's go, let's go in and have a look." ”

When the old man came to the first room, there were already many people in this room, and he silently paid the silver to the personnel of the jade carving building on the side, and walked in closely.

Ten minutes later.

All came out.

However, this group of people at this time is different.

Most of them turned pale at this time, and without saying a word, they left directly in a hurry, a small number of them hesitated, and only a few were eager to try the next second room.

Among them, the old man was the most unique, his eyes flickered, and after hesitating for a moment, he also followed to the second room.

Such and such.

After three rooms in one face, the situation of many people gathered just now directly changed greatly, and in the end, only the old man was left.

Walking out of the third room, the old man looked back at the mysterious room and exhaled deeply, "It's really amazing." ”

Then he looked to the fourth room.

This time, he really hesitated.

"That's it, now the old man has no way out, so he simply let it go. ”

In a moment, however, he made his way to the fourth room.

Because before he came here, he made a special trip to inquire.

There is a rule in the Jade Carving Building, that is, if someone can pass through all the rooms on the second floor, then you can let the Jade Carving Building do one thing for them, and it is anything, as long as you can think of it, and it is reasonable, the Jade Carving Building can do it.

And he's here for exactly that.

The fourth and fifth rooms......

When the old man came out of the fifth room, his face was extremely pale.

However, he did not hesitate and continued towards the sixth room.

If he had hesitated before coming to this building, then at this time, he had no hesitation.

Earlier, the reason why he hesitated was because he doubted whether the master here could help him.

But now it seems that there is no doubt about this, although he is extremely tired, but in his heart, he is extremely excited, and can even be said to be crazy!

Meanwhile.

"What? Someone passed through the fifth room?"

Above the third floor, the girl was a little surprised.

What is the situation on the second floor, as the owner of this room, she knows best.

You know, the ten rooms on the second floor are each placed with ten special works carved by her master ten years ago, although those ten works, she knows that they are only carved by her master, but to ordinary people, they are very terrible things!

She has a deep understanding of this in the past ten years!

Because of the ten rooms on the second floor, even she can only pass four, according to her master, if she wants to completely pass these ten rooms, unless her strength is stronger than him, she must rely on willpower!

And in this world, is there anyone who is stronger than her master?

The girl is skeptical!

So, these ten rooms are completely a place to test willpower, and the requirements are simply terrifying!

Just a few years ago, a martial artist with strong willpower, who was a king-level supreme, finally stopped in the fifth room!

The girl didn't expect that after a few years, someone actually broke into the fifth room!

After a little hesitation, she got up: "Let's go, let's go and see, it's already good to be able to walk through the fifth room with sheer willpower, and see what kind of character it is." ”

Not long after, the maiden took the maid to the second floor, and when they came to the second floor, they immediately found the old man.

At this time, the old man, who had just come out of the sixth room, had a bloodless face, his eyes were red, and the whole thing was like a walking corpse, which made the girl stunned on the spot.

She didn't flap in, but she didn't stop it.

These ten rooms, since they were established, have not prevented anyone from challenging them, nor have they forced anyone to challenge them, even if they die in them, it is their own choice, because this is also an additional content of the condition behind these ten rooms, and even the girl herself cannot interfere.

"It seems that this is another person who has a request for the jade carving building. The girl muttered.

She has seen a lot of this kind of person in the past ten years.

Especially in the early days, there were people on the second floor who kept trying to challenge them almost every day, and there were many powerful warriors.

But what about the facts?

No one had succeeded in ten years, and she didn't think this old man could pass.

After shaking her head and sighing, the girl was a little unbearable, and finally relieved.

Just as when her master set this test, she asked in doubt, and her master told her.

They are not saints, and it is impossible for them to help everyone.

Oh, yes!

How many things are there in the world?

If everybody comes to ask for help, and they have to help, they can't help at all.

And.

Although she didn't know why her master set this test, she knew that this test, once passed, was likely to be more beneficial than she imagined......

Thinking of this, the girl couldn't help but look towards the end of the ten rooms, where was there, a big word 'Yuan' made her distracted for a while......
