Chapter 3: The Family Test

After Chu Ge and his party entered the bronze door, when there was a sound of the door automatically closing behind them, everyone was shocked, and it was dark in front of them.

Almost all of them stood still for a while, but only the first person to go out could be the young master, and the young master was only one person. For the sake of this position, it is necessary to go, in the face of interests, the temptation is always huge, and soon some people start to move forward, and some people stay in place, and Chu Ge is the fastest one, because he has not stopped at all.

Chu Ge knew very well in his heart, since it was a test, he believed that the clansmen were not here to kill them, and since there was no danger to their lives, then there was no need to be afraid of anything, just move forward boldly. Chu Ge walked out along the wall all the way, and finally saw the light, and then he saw nine roads, Chu Ge didn't know what kind of arrangement this was, so he could only choose one randomly, he chose the third way to go, the reason was very simple, their room was three rooms, so he took the third way.

The road was still pitch black, Chu Ge groped his way forward, and couldn't help but think in his heart, what would he encounter in front of him, and what would exist behind the ancestral hall?

When Chu Ge came to the end of the third road, he found that this was a dead end, but there was light here, there were nine fire candles burning, inserted in the candlestick, and by the faint light, the walls were bare all around. At this time, the other talents walked out of the bronze gate and came to the nine-way intersection.

Chu Ge wanted to turn back immediately, but the steps he had just taken were immediately retracted, because if he turned back now, then he would inevitably fall behind the others, which would mean losing the qualification of the young master. Chu Ge stopped, looking at the candle flame, he thought of one thing, this is a sealed environment, the candle burns, it will always consume the oxygen in the environment, which means that when the candle burns out, it will be the time for him to die.

Chu Ge couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, although he was a little flustered, he still told himself to calm down. The knowledge he learned in school made him tell himself that if he didn't think of a way out as soon as possible, then not only would he lose his qualification as a young master, but he would also die, which was definitely possible.

Chu Ge did one thing, he extinguished eight of the nine fire candles, and only one was left in his hand, Chu Ge looked at the wall and circled, and then watched the fire candle in his hand flickering. He suddenly figured it out, he began to walk around the wall, beating the wall vigorously with his hands over and over again, and in the place directly facing the entrance of the underground palace, Chu Ge obviously felt that it was different from other walls, the back must be empty, definitely not solid.

Chu Ge kicked with his foot, found that he couldn't move, and then turned sideways to protect his body with his arms, and ran away, trying to use this impact to crash through the wall, but it had no effect except for the pain of hitting his shoulder. Chu Ge stopped, sat on the ground, and began to think about how to open the stone door in front of him, Chu Ge had countless ways to plan in his heart, but they failed one by one, he didn't have any tools in his hand to help, and his own strength was too small.

It's not just Chu Ge who encounters the barrier, nine roads, nine different tests, some rooms have a few bottles of wine, some have a few dogs directly, and some only have one question, all of which are at least a little hint, but Chu Ge is here, there is nothing.

Soon, someone rushed behind Chu Ge and looked at Chu Ge, who was still sitting on the ground.

Chu Ge also didn't expect that someone had come, that person Chu Ge was not very familiar, it was Chu Liuhua from the village, Chu Liuhua looked at the surrounding walls, and Chu Ge who was sitting on the ground, asked about the situation a little, and then kicked at the wall with one foot, and found that he couldn't move, and then Chu Liuhua was depressed.

But soon, he gave up, and kindly reminded Chu Ge: "This road is not passable, I suggest you change the road, I ran all the way, there are hints in the front two, but you have no hints on this road." ”

Chu Ge was stunned, what, there are hints, only he doesn't have them here, Chu Ge immediately asked, "What are the first two prompts?"

Chu Liuhua replied very quickly: "There is nothing in the first one, that is, there is a huge tripod, and there is a note pasted on the tripod, saying that if it can be lifted, the door will open, I estimate that it is at least more than a thousand catties, and the five of them did not pick it up, and they did not move at all." ”

Chu Ge was stunned for a moment, and raised the tripod, what is this test, it is impossible to compare strength, even if it is a young man, he can only lift a hundred catties of things, how to lift thousands of catties, Chu Ge asked: "What is the second prompt?"

Chu Liuhua said: "The second hint is a piece of paper with a Chu character written on it. I have a stupid brain, I can't think of it for a while and leave, and Chu Yingnian, a genius in our clan, is still thinking about it. ”

Chu Ge was silent, Chu Liuhua waved his hand and left, the tests on other roads are not low, the first road test strength, the second road test intelligence, and the third road test What is the test?

Chu Ge was thinking, he had found the exit, but he couldn't open the door, there were only two possibilities, one was to open it with strength, and the other was to open it with intelligence, the test was either literary or martial, and there would be no third one. The force obviously can't be opened, this Chu Ge and Chu Liuhua have tried, so only intelligence is left, Chu Ge is pondering, during which someone also came in, and Chu Ge came in and told them directly, that is the door, it can't be opened, and the others will be suspicious, and the three of them can't break it open, so they can only give up.

At the same time, Chu Ge was also asking them about the situation on other roads, and they were all not optimistic, but soon news came that Chu Yingnian had walked out, which was a blockbuster news. Not only Chu Ge was shocked in his heart, but other people were even more alarmed, they hoped that there would be a test after they went out, otherwise Chu Yingnian would be a stable young master.

Someone walked to the second way, but Chu Ge didn't go, he didn't want to pick up people's teeth, because he felt that his intelligence was no worse than Chu Yingnian, although he always failed the same level exam. Soon everyone found out that Chu Yingnian's road was automatically closed when he walked out, which made the others panic, could it be that only nine people could go out of nine roads?

Suddenly, Chu Ge discovered a very strange problem, the nine candles in his hand were almost burned by him, and the oxygen concentration in the room did not seem to drop. There must be an outlet in this room, Chu Ge began to think, and soon he began to have a choice in his heart, he walked towards the third candlestick, if this is not an open mechanism, then give up this path and change the way.

After some attempts, he didn't find any mechanism, and he couldn't turn it no matter how he turned, Chu Ge was depressed, could it be that he was wrong, this third way should be the third candlestick, it's really hell.

Chu Ge was very depressed, he wasted a long time here for no reason, he was the first person to walk out of the bronze door, but he still hasn't gone out, the more Chu Ge thought about it, the more irritated he became, and kicked towards the candlestick, but the candlestick was directly kicked down, and then a miracle happened, the door actually opened.

Chu Ge was dumbfounded, how could this be, aren't TV and movies all about turning candlesticks, his unintentional kick actually made him find a way out, I have to say lucky. Chu Ge was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately rushed out, thinking that if he ran fast now, he might have a chance to arrive before Chu Yingnian.

As soon as Chu Ge rushed out, a voice came from behind him: "You guy, run so fast, hurry to reincarnate?"

Chu Ge looked back when he heard the voice, and found that it was an old man, his name was grandpa, the elder of the clan, at this time, if it was okay, there would definitely be no one waiting for him at the exit, Chu Ge trotted to Chu Hongtu and greeted him politely.

After a brief conversation between the two, Chu Ge knew that the test in the underground palace was set by the old man Chu Hongtu, and each door was only limited to one person, and when the last person got the token after seeing the elder, all the doors would be opened, and they would be released. The sooner the person comes out, the greater the advantage, and the person who comes out later will have a disadvantage, but it is fair to everyone, even if Chu Ge comes out second, he does not dare to have the slightest carelessness in his heart.

Chu Ge took the token and began to run wildly, running all the way and observing all the way and finding that these scenery became more and more familiar to him, and suddenly he found that he was on the back mountain, and the underground passage of the ancestral hall came out of the back mountain.

Chu Ge ran along the road, very fast, and soon he saw Chu Yingnian standing in the pavilion, Chu Yingnian looked at the panting Chu Ge and said softly: "You are here, take a rest and let's start." ”

Chu Ge was stunned for a moment, what did he start? He didn't know anything when he arrived, and soon Chu Ge found that there was an old man sitting next to Chu Yingnian, and he only found out until now that he was weak for a while, for no other reason, just because this old man was his second grandfather, and he was usually very majestic, and Chu Ge himself was afraid.

The old man opened his eyes, glanced at the two of them, and then said slowly: "The two of you have passed the literary test, and next, the two of you will have a fight, whoever wins will go down the mountain with two tokens, and the first one to arrive at the hall of the sect will be the young master of your generation." ”

Chu Ge had doubts, but the time was urgent, and he didn't bother to think about it, so he threw himself at Chu Yingnian, Chu Yingnian was startled, he didn't expect Chu Ge to be so unruly, and he was constrained by Chu Ge for a while, but after all, he was a genius of this generation, and he soon competed with Chu Ge, and they were all rolling in the pavilion.

The old man looked at him with a headache, but he didn't care about it, Chu Yingnian had a complete headache, he was a high-achieving student of Peking University, and he was dragged around by Chu Ge on the ground, and his heart was depressed.

Chu Ge didn't have too many ideas, as long as he could win, he would be able to be a young master, whatever he was, he couldn't beat others, and it was not easy to beat a weak chicken like Chu Yingnian. Soon, the lack of physical strength brought trouble to Chu Yingnian, he was sat on by Chu Ge, and he couldn't get up no matter how he struggled.

Chu Yingnian could only watch Chu Ge take the tokens of the two and run down the mountain, but he missed this opportunity, which meant that the position of the young master left him. Chu Yingnian was unwilling, and said goodbye to the old man and was about to go down the mountain, but was stopped, and then Chu Yingnian stayed in the pavilion until the lights of ten thousand homes were lit before accompanying the old man down the mountain.

When he went up the mountain, Chu Yingnian was still Chu Yingnian, that Peking University top student, extremely smart, conceited and high, after going down the mountain, Chu Yingnian was not that Chu Yingnian anymore, his life trajectory was changing, not only him, on this day, many people's life trajectories were changing, and Chu Ge was also among them.
