Passing through the glittering golden gate, the light and shadow mingled, and a warm fragrance came to their faces, and they returned to the hut where the brazier was kept. There is also a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall, the painting is snow-capped, the mountains are faint, different from the inscription in the world, only the three words "Rui Xue Lu" are written on the picture, in addition, there is no seal, and there is no payment.

It turned out that this thatched hut was Ruixue Lu.

In addition to the children who came out first, there were three other strangers, two men and one woman. The male looked to be in his twenties and had a simple appearance, the other was about forty years old and had a cold face, and the female was only seventeen or eighteen years old, with an apple face and a very pleasant smile.

All three stared silently at a bronze mirror on the table, no one spoke, and no one looked at them. Lei Xiuyuan was apprehensive in his heart, and couldn't help leaning towards the little mallet and muttering, "Eldest sister's head...... Did we pass the test?"

The little mallet shook her head, she seemed to have something on her mind, and found a corner to squat without saying a word, and the children's ecstatic mood because of leaving the forest was also washed away by the silent atmosphere at this moment, everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak first.

"We've seen everything in the forest just now. The middle-aged man suddenly spoke, his tone very majestic, "You are the first to come back." ”

With that, he was silent again. Is this an encouragement? Or is it something else? Is the second choice considered a pass? Everyone is even more uneasy.

After a while, the second batch of children also returned to Ruixuelu smoothly, this group of people was even less, only two, although one of them had dirty clothes, but his appearance was extremely beautiful and his temperament was noble, it was the little county lord.

After she came in, she looked around, and when she saw Ji Tongzhou, she immediately smiled slightly, and in an instant, the light was so bright that even Lei Xiuyuan, who hated her deeply, was stunned for a moment.

"Lord Ying is really one step faster. The county lord walked to Ji Tongzhou's side, "Lan Ya was ashamed of herself. ”

Ye Ye is right, this kid is really a prince and nobleman!

Ji Tongzhou seemed to enjoy everyone's awe-inspiring gaze, and glanced at the little mallet, how about it, scared her to death, right? She will definitely regret all kinds of rude and rebellious behaviors before, those behaviors are enough to punish her nine clans several times.

The little mallet paid no attention to his spirits, and she hid in the corner, whispering to the hoarse old gentleman, whose curiosity about him had swelled to the point of being irrepressible. Who is he, is he a human or a ghost, can't see him, and she seems to be the only one who can hear his voice, is he possessed by her?

In the face of the demonic fox demon just now, he said, "robbed him of his things," and said, "Although it is less than one thousandth, it can also come in handy." What does that mean? The strangest thing is that the fox demon in the forest is exactly the same as the one she met in Qingqiu, and the master said that each demon has its own unique demonic energy, and if the illusion is created through the demonic energy, it must be the appearance of the demonic owner. In this way, the demonic aura of the fox demon in the forest is that of the nine-tailed fox in Qingqiu?

With so many things put together, a flash of inspiration suddenly moved in her mind, could it be that the seriously injured fox demon did not escape, but possessed herself?!

"Don't pretend to be asleep, old man. The little mallet deliberately provoked him with words, "I know who you are, you are the nine-tailed fox demon!"

He obviously didn't eat it at all, and he didn't pay attention to her.

The little mallet asked several times, he always pretended to be deaf and dumb, and the stubbornness of the little mallet was forced out, and the more he didn't speak, the more she wanted to ask, and the annoyance would annoy him. She has never said anything for such a long time after living to the age of ten, and she has been asking and talking, seeing that the sky is about to dawn, I don't know how long it took, suddenly someone slapped her on the shoulder, and Baili Gelin's crisp and tired voice sounded in the back of her head.

"Little mallet, what are you talking about here alone?"

The little mallet shook suddenly, and then I realized that my back hurt because I had been rickety all night, and my throat hurt as if it had been burned by fire because of the words I had spoken for a long time.

"Nothing ......" she drank all the water in her skin in one go, and looked around, there were several more people in the hut than before, roughly calculated, about dozens.

Baili Gelin had just changed into clean clothes in the morning and they were dirty, she sat beside her with a tired face, and whispered: "I'm tired, that fox demon is really terrible...... If it weren't for Ye Ye's desperate bet, we don't know if we would be able to come back. ”

Fox Demon? They also met Fox Demon? The little mallet was quickly relieved, the forest was very vast, and thousands of people could not go in only one direction, presumably the exits in all directions were arranged for the fox demon to sit in, and only by defeating it could they successfully pass through the gate and return to Ruixuelu.

However, Ye Ye was able to subdue the fox demon, it was really not simple, and in the end, the demonic energy it released couldn't even move Ji Tongzhou, how did Ye Ye solve it?

"What about Ye Yeren?" asked the little mallet.

Baili Gelin pointed in another direction: "Over there, lying down, my sister is taking care of him, and it is estimated that it will take a while to move." ”

The little mallet looked over, and sure enough, he saw Ye Ye lying on the ground with a pale face, his head resting on Baili Singing Moon's legs, half asleep. I don't know why, she found out from the time she first met them that there seemed to be a subtle atmosphere between the two of them, and outsiders couldn't blend in at all.

Obviously, Lei Xiuyuan and Gelin on the side had this feeling, everyone smiled awkwardly at each other, and Baili Gelin opened the topic: "By the way, little mallet, how did you deal with the fox demon?"

The little mallet rarely stood up: "Yes, everyone works together, and then ......"

She really didn't know how to say it, Gelin was her friend, she didn't want to fool around, but she was even more reluctant to tell the matter that the nine-tailed demon fox might possess.

"Then the eldest sister broke the fox demon by herself. Lei Xiuyuan proudly repeated the heroic posture of the little mallet, the eldest sister was in the limelight, which was even happier than his own limelight.

Baili Golin was dumbfounded: "Really, little mallet, you are so powerful! Is it the magic that your master taught before?"

This mouthy crybaby...... The little stick mallet kept it in the past, and it was good to think that it was a magic technique to subdue the fox demon.

As he was talking, he suddenly saw a middle-aged man get up and say, "Okay, the time has come." With a wave of his long sleeve, the bronze mirror was retracted into his sleeve.

Is it already noon? The children in the hut suddenly perked up, did they want to announce whether they had passed the test or not?

The apple-faced girl smiled and said, "Listen, from now on, the people I called will go out, and those who didn't call will stay." ”

Did it start? The children all showed a look of nervous anticipation, and they were called to go out, indicating that only those who didn't get the number were considered to have passed, right? The palms of the little mallet were full of sweat, she was more nervous than anyone else, and finally she relied on the possessed fox demon to return to Ruixue Lu, I don't know if it would be seen, and there was infinite fear in the nervousness, and her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

The girl read the number very fast, from more than 100 to more than 200, when she read "two-six-five", the little mallet breathing was about to stop, she was two-seven-six, will there be her?

Who knew that after 265, the girl directly read "276", and the heart of the little mallet fell to the bottom at once, with her? She didn't pass? Did they still find out that she had poor qualifications? Did they discover the existence of the real fox demon in her body?

Her mind was buzzing, all kinds of thoughts came flooding in, one moment of fear, one moment of despair, a chaos, as if she didn't know the world, she looked around blankly, and the Baili Ge Lin Ye Ye and Lei Xiuyuan were looking at her comfortingly, and the other children who were not named looked ecstatic and proud.

“...... Well, I'll go out first......" She felt like her voice was coming from a distant place, indistinct.

Pushing open the door, the wind and snow were blowing, and there were already several children standing outside, all of them with dead faces, and with a look of disbelief, they must not be much better.

The peak is still snowing, there is only black and white between heaven and earth, the little mallet doesn't know what she is looking at, will she be caught next, and then executed with the fox demon in her body?

Maybe it's good to be executed like this, she tried her best, but she still didn't pass the second choice, what should the master do?

"Squeak", the door opened again, this time it was Ji Tongzhou who came out, his face was pale, as if he had lost his soul, no one looked at him, he slowly passed by the small stick mallet, standing in the distance with his arms crossed, I don't know what to think, there were a few of his dog legs among the children who came out first, and hurriedly followed as if he wanted to comfort him, and he kicked them all out one by one.

Didn't he either?

After a while, a few more children came out with gloomy faces, but it was the first group of children who came back with them, and a hazy thought suddenly appeared in the little mallet's heart: Will those who are left behind be eliminated? No matter how you think about it, it is impossible to eliminate these children who came back first and got rid of the fox demon, right?

As if to confirm her thoughts, a few children came back before noon, and even the county lord of Lanya was there, she cried as soon as she came out, and after a while, Lei Xiuyuan also came out, he hadn't spoken since he came out, he had been crying, and then the Baili sisters and Ye Ye both slipped out miserably.

Baili Gelin also cried when he saw the little mallet: "Why didn't you pass the test? Didn't you defeat the fox demon and rush back before noon?"

Ye Ye's face was still a little pale, leaning on Baili Singing Yue's shoulder, he looked around, and saw that there were a total of more than a dozen people outside the station, and they all returned to Ruixue Lu before him, he pondered for a moment, and suddenly said, "Maybe...... The one who came out was the one who passed?"

The little mallet nodded: "I think so too, the people outside are the ones who defeated the fox demon and came back first." ”

Baili Gelin still had tears on his eyelashes, and when he heard them say this, he immediately laughed again: "Really?"

Baili Singyue, who had almost never spoken, suddenly nodded and said, "We passed the test, I heard it, the woman was talking inside." ”

"Really, it's going to scare people to death like this!" Baili Gelin complained vigorously, she looked back and saw that everyone else was still depressed, Lei Xiuyuan cried as if he was about to faint, she slapped him on the back and shouted: "Don't be sad!

The children all looked up at her, and for a moment, everyone's faces were filled with hope.

Baili Gelin said loudly: "We all defeated the fox demon before noon and rushed back smoothly, so it is not called passing, is it possible that those who have not even seen the fox demon face in the future are called clearance?"

This was said extremely powerfully, and the children suddenly burst into a fuss, and even Ji Tongzhou laughed, he seemed to have secretly rubbed his eyes, and it was estimated that he was also shedding tears just now.

Lei Xiuyuan's crying also stopped, he timidly pulled the clothes of the little mallet, and muttered, "Eldest sister, really?

The little mallet nodded vigorously: "We've all passed!"

She couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart, thinking of her desperate thoughts, she couldn't help but laugh and helpless. Calm down and think about it, Dongyang Zhenren is such a powerful immortal who can't find out the existence of the fox demon in her body, how can other people find out? It's just that the mysterious person with the hoarse voice has always been a piece of her heart, all the way to the primary selection and second choice, thanks to him, she relies on him, and is a little disgusted with him, is he really a nine-tailed fox demon?

As everyone expected, soon the three adults opened the door and let them into the house, and the girl smiled and sent a large package to each of them, and said softly: "You are all children with excellent talents, will and ability, and welcome you to the Young Phoenix Academy." I would like to present you with a disciple's uniform and a name tag, as well as other necessary items in your bag. Before the third day of the next month, please be sure to rush to Huaguang County, Yueguo, and there will be a car to send you to the academy. ”

The little mallet was so excited that she couldn't stop trembling, she was even smirking unconsciously, but no one would pay attention to her, at this moment, every child who passed the test was immersed in ecstasy, Baili Gelin cried for a while and laughed for a while, Lei Xiuyuan put his face on the burden and muttered something in a choked voice, even Ye Ye blushed with excitement.

For a long time to come, they all lived like in a dream, the rainbow deer car sent the children back to their respective homes, and they had nowhere to go, but fortunately, the five of them passed the primary election from Lugong Town, and they were all sent back to Lugong Town.

The small stick mallet took out the name brand for a while to take a look, the name brand is made of what metal it is made of, its color is clear yellow, half-moon shaped, the pattern is simple and refreshing, the back seal is engraved with the words "Young Phoenix Academy", it is heavy in her hand, but her name tag is not the same as others, other people's names are engraved in the seal book and their names are on the front, she is using a brush to write the three words of the small stick mallet.

She deliberately took the name tag and asked the apple-faced girl, and the girl smiled: "You are already a member of the academy, this name is really not on the table, and on the day of admission, I will ask my husband to ask for an official name for you, so that you can make a name tag at that time." ”

She was a little sorry, this is the name given by the master, it is said that when she was picked up in the river, someone happened to be washing clothes with a mallet, and the master saw that the woman who was pounding clothes was very beautiful, and he felt something, so he named himself a little mallet...... Well, such a memory is indeed a bit unacceptable.

When I returned to Lugong Town, it was already the middle of the night, and the town was dark, except for the two lights at the entrance of the inn that were flickering slightly.

The five children are still in a state of excitement, and they are chattering all the way, after all, their friends have all passed, and they can practice together in the Young Phoenix Academy for a year in the future, and they don't have to be separated. In the end, Ye Ye was a little older, and he asked for two rooms when he entered the inn, and originally said that he was tired for a day and a night and rested early, but everyone still gathered in a room to talk.

"Little mallet, Xiuyuan, do you have anything to go home to deal with first?" Baili Gorin slept on her sister's lap like a cat.

Both of them shook their heads, Lei Xiuyuan had no home for a long time, wandering around, and the little mallet had no idea of going back, she was brought to Lugong Town by Dongyang Zhenren, and flew all morning, if she returned to Qingqiu on her own two legs, the ghost knows how long it would take, what if she couldn't catch up with Huaguang County?

"Then the five of us can go together!" Baili Gelin smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, "Five people, how lively!" She raised a hand, her face full of hope and joy, "In the future, the five of us will become the most powerful immortals!"

In the misty and miasma of the Erxuan forest, two figures suddenly appeared, and the black gauze woman bent down to pick up the rune paper that had become blank on the ground, glanced at it, and then respectfully handed it to the white-bearded old man behind her.

"The seal has been broken?" the old man was a little surprised, "those children did it?"

"It's a ten-year-old girl named Little Mallet. The black gauze girl succinctly recounted the situation of the day, "The demonic aura of the nine-tailed fox sealed on the paper disappeared, and the seal was naturally broken. ”

The old man silently circled around, and there was less miasma in this vicinity than in other places, as if it had been purified by something. It is said that the fox demon disappeared with a light touch from the little girl, and the demonic energy on the seal also disappeared, leaving a purifying breath around, and it is very likely that the demonic energy was purified, and the girl was only ten years old?

She ...... The qualifications are very ordinary. The black gauze girl thought for a while, and said: "During the primary election, she couldn't pass with her qualifications, but for some reason, I felt that her body was full of aura, and the amount of aura was far more than that of ordinary children, so I let her pass the primary." ”

"Oh?" said the old man, raising his brow with great interest, "What's her name? ”
