Chapter 037: Donglin Stone Land
PS: Thank you Ling Yi from the bottom of my heart, a thousand-word long comment! How can you not work hard! Your eyes are red! Your heart is warm!――
Today is the ninth day of September, and tomorrow is the tenth day of September, which is the official start of the Dongzhou audition. The first thing to compare tomorrow is the test of the latent star level. To pass the test, from the 800 people who signed up, the top 32 will be selected to participate in the subsequent group team battles, which means that a large number of people will be brushed down in this first level.
And until this time, because there was no one to guide him, Xiao Ma didn't know what his soul stars and latent stars looked like, let alone how many levels they had. But he couldn't ask Jia Chao or Yin Zhiyun questions, because his identity as a postman was too terrifying, and it was not appropriate for them to know it at present.
This is sad for Brother Xiaoma, of course, he also tried to ask "Nayin", but what he got was only his soul star and latent star attributes, which said: "Bin Lili, born in 1026 in the Wuzhou calendar. Bingyin (life), fire in the furnace. Another: Renwu, willow wood. Soul Star: Tiger Star, Hidden Star: Ma Jun's Star. ”
That's all, nothing else about the level of the exercises.
And this is only after the changes in his body, if you go back further, even if you ask "Nayin", "Nayin" does not have any instructions, not even the name of the words "Binlili".
Xiao Ma guessed that his soul star and latent star might have just been activated, so they were not yet leveled. So, in order to verify his speculation, Xiao Ma Ge had an idea, and began to ask "Nayin" about Yin Zhiyun's soul star and latent star attributes, and this time Nayin gave a response:
"Yin Zhiyun, born in 1025 in the Wuzhou calendar. Yi Chou (life), gold in the sea. Another: Yiwei, gold in the sand. Soul Star: Niu Qin's Star, Level 6. Latent Star: Yangtai Star, level 9. ”
This makes Brother Xiao Ma depressed, why does Yin Zhiyun have a level introduction?
In addition to being depressed, Brother Xiao Ma was a little surprised, surprised that the stupid scholar, the hidden star had already cultivated to the ninth level, I really don't know if his weak temperament is pretending.
I envy others a little, but when I think about the changes in my body, I feel that my strength should not be worse than theirs, so what is going on with this soul star and latent star.
Countless question marks lingered in his mind, making Xiao Ma start to miss Sister Lu Yao again.
......
Because they were going to take the test tomorrow, the three of them rested in the tavern of Jia Chao's house, and did not go to wander around the royal city.
In the blink of an eye, the next morning, it was another sunny and beautiful day.
The curtain of the Dongzhou audition also officially opened today. Before Brother Ma got up, he heard the noise of gongs and drums and the sound of people on the street. So he hurriedly dressed and went to the ground, and after finishing grooming, he went downstairs to find the little fat men Jia Chao and Yin Zhiyun.
At this moment, the two were chatting downstairs while eating breakfast, and when they saw the boss coming down from upstairs, both of them looked like hippie smiles, and they didn't know how they were the little brothers in the class, and they didn't have the consciousness of respecting the leader at all.
Brother Xiao Ma ignored them, sat down directly, and saw a roast chicken on the table, he tore off a chicken leg and began to gnaw. Don't need money to eat, eat as much as you can, this is Xiao Ma's life philosophy.
"Big brother, you eat slowly, don't worry, the location of the audition is in the 'Donglin Stone Land', not far from here, you must have heard the sound of gongs and drums just now, it should be over there, the audience may have been queuing up to enter the venue." However, we are participating in the competition, and there is a special channel, so there is no need to rush.
Besides, today is just to beat the drum, with the strength of the eldest brother, you must be fine! Unlike the two of us, who have not yet fallen in their hearts, I don't know if we can squeeze into the top 32. If you can't even get into the top 32, then you won't have to compare ......"
Brother Xiao Ma threw the leftover chicken bones on the table, pinched the steamed bun with his shiny fingers and took a bite, picked up the bowl and drank the porridge, and then looked into Jia Chao's eyes and asked suspiciously:
"What do you mean? It's better than this today? Don't you have to fight?"
"That's right, beat the five-color drum, you don't have to fight today, today is just to test the level of the latent star, judge the strength by the level of the latent star, and take the top thirty-two to advance to the next round. ”
"What's the five-color drum?"
"Big brother, how did I find out that you don't seem to know anything about Dongzhou, don't you even know the five-color drum? The five-color drum should be well-known in the entire Five Elements Continent, I really can't guess your identity, big brother......
The five-color drum, as the name suggests, is a leather drum of five different colors: blue, white, red, black, and yellow. The five colors correspond to the five elements: wood, metal, fire, water, and earth.
Legend has it that this five-color drum is not in the innate gossip, nor is it in the acquired five elements, but is made of the bones and skin of a Hongmeng giant beast. Because it is not in the Five Elements, it can test the attributes of the Five Elements, and because it is particularly sensitive to the magnetic field power of human latent stars, it is used as a test tool for the level of this latent star.
In fact, if you think about it, it's really a bit overkill! This five-color drum is still a rare magic weapon. I think that during the Southeast War, in front of the two armies, these five-color drums made great achievements for the Dongzhou Wangshi. ”
Jia Chao said for a long time, but Brother Xiao Ma was still confused, and he still didn't know how to test it in the future, let alone how many levels of latent stars there were with his current strength.
......
Without further ado, after breakfast, the three of them left the tavern and went straight to the 'Donglin Stone Land' in the mouth of the little fat man.
The strange thing is that before they went far, the little fat man and Yin Zhiyun pulled themselves to stand by a waterhole. There were two rows of heavily armored soldiers standing on the edge of the pool, and the crowd around them was also full of people watching the excitement. It's just that Brother Xiao Ma really doesn't understand what they are doing around this small pool, and what is the excitement to see.
On the opposite side is a verdant bamboo forest, separated from the bamboo forest by a waterhole, which is shallow but also a few zhang square, with a half-arch bridge on it. For some reason, only half of the bridge was built, and it was not connected to the bamboo bank on the opposite side.
Brother Xiao Ma didn't know where to go, so he could only be led by Jia Chao and Yin Zhiyun mechanically, and after being inspected by the soldiers and the exquisite wooden plaque taken when he signed up, they walked straight up to this half of the arch bridge together.
When the surrounding crowd saw someone on the bridge, they immediately raised a burst of cheers, and even a few words of cheering rushed into their ears! This made Xiao Ma even more confused, thinking: Could it be that this waterhole is the entrance to the competition venue?
Sure enough, although Brother Xiao Ma had already guessed, he was still subverted by the scene in front of him, and he couldn't believe his eyes a little. Because he saw that the half of the arch bridge under his feet was slowly sinking, and the shallow pool water was consciously divided to both sides at this time, leaking a big black hole at the bottom.
Brother Xiao Ma opened his eyes wide and looked down, and found that the end of the big hole was actually a mountain top, and there was a large group of magnificent buildings on the top of the mountain, and at this time, the half of the arch bridge under his feet turned out to be the end of the ladder connecting the two, the ladder was not static, but converging downward, and there was a certain gravitational force that tightly adsorbed the three people on the ladder, making Brother Xiao Ma feel like walking on the ground, and it didn't take long for the scenery on both sides to look upright.
As the ladder converged, the three people on the bridge also automatically moved forward, surprisingly fast, but unusually steady, and Brother Pony found that he was walking in mid-air at this time, and he even had time to pick up a floating cloud at hand.
It was the first time to have such a wonderful experience, Brother Xiao Ma looked left and right excitedly, although Jia Chao and Yin Zhiyun also seemed extremely excited, they did not have such a strong feeling as Brother Xiaoma.
It didn't take long for the ladder to come to an end, and the complex of buildings on the top of the mountain that looked like the Imperial City of the Heavenly Palace had arrived.
Walk down the ladder, in front of you is a wide straight extension of the Yong Road, listen to the little fat man for his introduction, this Yong Road is 60 steps wide, 60 and 8 steps long, the eight branch halls in the 'Donglin Stone Land', 24 corridors are separated from south to north on both sides, and all around are the green jade thick walls that are up to nearly eight zhang, and the whole 'Donglin Stone Land' is surrounded by a castle-like building complex.
When you come to these palaces, you know what is truly majestic, a building that can only exist in the imagination, is now standing in front of you. "Donglin Stone Land" four big characters are gilded, hanging in the green jade city tower of nearly eight zhang, the towering white jade stone door is tightly closed, looking around, everywhere is majestic, everywhere is magnificent.
At this time, the front of the main hall was already full of people, presumably all of them should have come to participate in the audition test.
