CHAPTER XXII

In the early morning, the warm sunlight spreads on the earth, the dew on the grass shines in the sun, the trees stretch their branches in the warm wind, and the sound of swaying wakes up the sleeping earth.

At the door of an ordinary room, two teenagers fell asleep one left and one right, and when a crisp and heavy bell rang, the two rubbed their eyes and woke up in a daze.

Long stretched, yawning, the night dew made the clothes on the two slightly damp, the two stood up, the young man on the left looked to the side, and then with an angry face, pointed at him and said:

"Oh! Shen Dasha, you kid is not kind! I said that I will keep it for the first half of the night, and you will keep it for the second half of the night, why are you still asleep!"

This young man is Zhang Ergou, after coming out of Lu Fan's room yesterday, Li Qiang and Han Chong left first, Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha were worried about Lu Fan's state, so after some discussion, they decided to stay at Lu Fan's door to avoid any accidents.

"I... I kept watch for most of the night, and when I saw that it was about to dawn, I just... I fell asleep..."

Shen Dasha's face was flushed, his eyes were evasive, and he lowered his head and said weakly.

"You... You... Hey, come in, go in and see, Brother Fan hasn't moved all night, don't let anything happen again!"

Zhang Ergou was anxious at this time, worried about Lu Fan, so he didn't care about teaching Shen Dasha a lesson, and then pushed open the door and stretched out his head to look at the bed.

Lu Fan has been immersed in the Shangqing Mind Method since he began to comprehend it, although he has a lot of things he can't understand about this exercise, but he feels its wonder in his heart, which opens a new door for Lu Fan's cognition.

When Lu Fan was awakened by the sound of Zhang Ergou opening the door, Zhang Ergou seemed to see a ray of light in Lu Fan's eyes! When he looked at Lu Fan again, he felt that his appearance was so different from yesterday that people couldn't see through it at a glance.

Lu Fan opened his eyes, only to feel that his whole body was extremely comfortable, and his limbs became more powerful, and then he looked at the two people at the door with a blank look in his eyes, and the sunlight shone in, pulling out two long shadows on the ground.

"It's the next day..."

Lu Fan muttered, and suddenly thought of a sentence in his mind:

"There is no time for cultivation, and it has been a thousand years in the blink of an eye. ”

In my mind, I had only been meditating for a while, but I didn't expect it to be two days in the morning. ”

Lu Fan twisted his arm, and found that the injuries he suffered in the trial had long since healed, and the scenery waiting for me in his eyes became clearer and clearer, and even his ears were much more sensitive.

Lu Fan looked up at the two of them and asked with doubts:

"Huh, why did you come so early?"

Zhang Ergou walked quickly in front of Lu Fan, looked left and right, and only after making sure that Lu Fan was indeed okay did he speak:

"Brother Fan, after discussing with Dasha last night, I decided to guard at the door, in case Brother Fan has anything to do, we can take care of it. ”

Lu Fan heard it in his ears and warmed his heart, then walked out of bed, patted Zhang Ergou on the shoulder, and said sincerely:

"Brother, I made you worried, thank you!"

Shen Dasha also stepped forward and looked at Lu Fan, his eyes full of joy.

"Brother Fan, how many of us do we need to thank you, as long as we see that you are okay, we will all be relieved!"

Lu Fan turned his head to look at Shen Dasha, nodded lightly, pondered for a while, walked to the stone table in the room, and sat down.

Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha also sat at the stone table with Lu Fan, looking at Lu Fan, whose face was a little abnormal, and had doubts in their hearts.

After Lu Fan settled down, he looked at the two of them with a serious face, and said:

"Ergou, Dasha, let me ask you something..."

When Zhang Ergou heard this, he immediately patted his chest and said loudly:

"Brother Fan, just say it, as long as we know, we will tell you everything!"

Shen Dasha on the side also nodded, listening carefully to Lu Fan's next question.

Lu Fan put his hands flat on the table, sorted out his thoughts, and said in a low voice:

"How many steps have you all reached in the Introductory Trial?"

Zhang Ergou and Shen Da were stunned, they really didn't expect that Lu Fan would ask such a question, and they didn't want to mention the trial again, for fear of revealing Lu Fan's scar again and hitting his sore spot.

"Where... Brother Fan... This..."

Zhang Ergou looked embarrassed, looked at Lu Fan, his eyes were full of unbearability, and he didn't want to talk about this issue anymore.

"Ergou, it's okay, let's talk!"

Lu Fan looked at Zhang Ergou and said calmly, since Han Chong left yesterday, Lu Fan thought about it for a long time, and finally cheered up again, looking at his good friends who missed him, Lu Fan really couldn't continue to be decadent.

Shen Dasha lowered his head and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhang Ergou heard the calmness in Lu Fan's tone, looked at his firm eyes, and knew in his heart that Lu Fan had recovered, but there was something missing from his body, this feeling was very clear, but if he thought about it carefully, he couldn't see what was different from before.

"Brother Fan, during the trial, most of us walked to about fifty or sixty steps, because the further we went, the greater the pressure, and we couldn't bear it, and then it was like carrying a big mountain on our back..."

Zhang Ergou frowned, trying to recall how he felt when he was in the land of trials.

"Han Chong walked the farthest, sixty-five steps, followed by Dasha, walked to sixty steps, then me, fifty-six steps, and finally Li Qiang, fifty-one steps, not only was there a lot of pressure in the trial, but also the surrounding wind, cold and biting, and the whistling was like a ghost crying, which was particularly scary!"

Speaking of this, a trace of fear appeared on Zhang Ergou's face, and he seemed to still have some lingering palpitations about the place of trial.

"Later, I found out that these are all fakes! They were all deliberately made by the sect to test us! Even if we accidentally fall down the steps, we will be fine! They don't know that they are about to scare Lao Tzu to death in the trial!"

Zhang Ergou swept away his previous fear, clenched his fists and said angrily.

Shen Dasha also raised his head, looked at Lu Fan like a chicken pecking rice, and nodded yes.

Lu Fan smiled knowingly, he had also experienced these things, after hearing what Zhang Ergou said, Lu Fan was very incomprehensible in his heart, why everyone could go above the fifty steps, and even that Sun Hao had reached nearly two hundred steps! He only walked to the tenth order, and his head was in pain, how did they persevere? Could it really be that he did not have the qualifications to cultivate immortals? Or maybe there was some secret that he had not discovered?

Lu Fan frowned tightly, looked at Zhang Ergou, with fierceness in his eyes, and asked in a deep voice:

"Ergou, during the trial, did you feel a lot of pain in your head, as if it was about to explode? This question is very important to me, you must think about it carefully!"

After Zhang Ergou heard this, he held his cheek raiser with his right hand, pondered for a while, and said suspiciously:

"Headache? No, it's scary to look at the abyss under your feet, and then your body is a little heavier, and you don't have a headache?"

"Really?"

Lu Fan's eyes widened violently, and he looked straight at Zhang Ergou.

"Really!"

Zhang Ergou answered, nodded and said affirmatively.

Lu Fan's face changed suddenly, and he stood up with a bang, pacing back and forth in the room with his head down, his right hand on his chin and rubbing it continuously, and the doubts in his eyes became even stronger.

"Why? Why is it the only one who has a splitting headache? Is it really because of my own reasons? But what is the cause of this?"

Lu Fan walked to the stone table, stopped, his brows were twisted together, and he stiffened and remained motionless.

Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha were both taken aback by Lu Fan's sudden move, and looking at the anxious Lu Fan, both of them were a little worried in their hearts.

"Where... Brother Fan, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

Shen Dasha looked at Lu Fan, then stood up as well, hurriedly walked to Lu Fan's side, and said softly.

Seeing this, Zhang Ergou also hurriedly came to Lu Fan, and looked at Lu Fan carefully, with worry on his face.

"Hey! I still don't have a clue!"

Lu Fan sighed secretly, racking his brains and couldn't think of the reason why he had a headache in the trial, and then put the matter aside for the time being, all the reasons, and wait for three months to enter the trial place, and then make plans.

Lu Fan came back to his senses, raised his head and suddenly saw a huge face in front of him, just a little bit close to himself, two big eyes staring directly at him, and even his face could feel the other party's breathing!

"What the hell!"

Lu Fan was startled, and ducked back violently, and suddenly heard a heart-rending scream in his ears, as if he had stepped on something under his feet, Lu Fan was frightened, and hurriedly hid to the side.

When Lu Fan stood firm and his vision became broader, he saw the scene in front of him clearly.

Zhang Ergou turned his head and looked at himself in confusion, the slightly aggrieved look in his eyes couldn't help but make Lu Fan retch, Shen Dasha squatted on the ground and kept rubbing his feet, his expression was painful, and his mouth also hissed from time to time, looking at Lu Fan with a resentful face.

"What... What's the situation?"

Lu Fan was completely blindfolded, he didn't pay attention to the things around him when he was thinking about it, and when he came to his senses, the two people who behaved strangely made Lu Fan only feel a chill behind him.

"Brother Fan, we've known each other for so many years, and we've always played together, I... Am I that scary..."

Zhang Ergou said dejectedly, walked to the stone table and sat down, sighing and muttering.

"Brother Fan, my toes, my toes, my toes, my toes, my toes, my toes, my to

Shen Dasha burst into tears, shouted loudly at the top of his throat, and then sat on the ground, constantly rubbing his right foot, and there was a faint sound of gasp.

Lu Fan only understood at this time, his actions just now made the two of them a little worried, so he got up and walked in front of him, wanting to see if there was anything wrong, when he came to his senses, because he was too close to see Zhang Ergou's face clearly, he took a step back sharply after being frightened, and never thought that this heavy step stepped on Shen Dasha's feet...

"Hey, hey, that, I'm sorry, who told you to scare me, you should go find Ergou, it's all because of him, I will step on you..."

Lu Fan smiled and said embarrassedly, and then pushed all the responsibility to Zhang Ergou, still complacent in his heart.

Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then they each flew to give Lu Fan a big white eye, and then their eyes were full of joy.

"Brother Fan, I'm back!"

Lu Fan looked at the two living treasures in front of him, the haze of the trial in his heart was swept away, and even his mood became happy, he knew that he had drilled a blind spot before, if it wasn't for these good brothers who had been accompanying him, maybe he would have fallen into this quagmire and would never extricate himself.

"Thank you..."
