Chapter 3: The Young Master (I)
There is no road.
The little beggar looked at the hideous rocks in front of him, rubbed his eyes again, and there was still nothing.
But that's where the immortals disappeared!
She saw with her own eyes that the air distorted like water waves as the immortals passed by, and she even saw that there were huge carvings towering into the clouds, cranes and colorful luans flying, and there were three thousand jade steps of white clouds that went straight to the heavens, but she tried to sneak in when the passage was not completely closed, but she was was-
Could it be that people are really immortals, and she is destined to be unacceptable to the immortal sect without roots and bones?
She thought unwillingly, raised her head, the blue sky was cloudless, the fairy bell rang for a long time, the towering giant peak was surrounded by golden light, and sometimes the glow broke through the sky, it was the immortals who came from the sky.
She watched carefully, and when the men were about to touch the rocks, the golden light on the top of the mountain would sway slightly, as if the waves on the surface of the water were spreading in layers, and thenβthe man who had resisted the sky was gone.
Mountain protection array?
She remembered that her uncle had told her that the Immortal Cultivation Sect did not like mortals to break in, and there were magic circles near the mountain gates, and ordinary people would be confused by the winding mountain roads conjured up by the magic arrays, and they would unconsciously go to the bottom of the mountain.
encountered the mountain protection array, which means that she is not looking for the wrong place.
The immortals said that she had low qualifications and could not be accepted as an apprentice, but she knew that the Dao Gate paid attention to fate, and if she had no roots and bones but could enter the mountain gate with her own strength, she would be able to get another chance.
Since thousands of miles of road have been walked by one person, why don't you dare to go down for the last hundred miles?
Brother Yeyin can even give up his life for me, and if I give up because I'm afraid of failure, then I'm really sorry for him.
What's more, Uncle Guoshi said that there is nothing difficult in the world, only afraid of people with hearts, and the mountain protection array will not take the initiative to attack mortals, it will only use illusions to confuse people and make them retreat. As long as your mind is free of doubts and fearless of everything, you can find the way to the mountain gate!
Thinking of this, the girl took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and stepped into the mountain protection array.
When she opened her eyes again, the scenery in front of her had indeed changed, before it was still snowy and withered branches, but now she was standing on a winding forest path, lush, damp and warm on both sides, and colorful poisonous snakes entwined in the depths of the branches.
At the end of the mountain road is a straight peak, which is chillingly steep.
The girl looked up and saw that the cliff was covered with heavy clouds and mist and that the rocks were black and swarthy, and there were no roads or steps, not even a chain to climb on.
Is this the fear in my heart? she thought quietly, a deserted road full of snakes and insects, a mountain that could never be crossed.
But she was not afraid, she had already seen the scenery of hell, and even if the road was full of endless dangers, there was nothing to be afraid of.
I have no home to go back to, and I have no relatives waiting for me to come back, if I really accidentally fall and fall to pieces, it will be fate!
The girl thought viciously, and with a hint of fortitude in her dark eyes, she broke a branch, brushed aside the shrubs, and began to search for sharp stones.
......
......
It was three days before I stood in front of the cliff again.
During these three days, the girl made a great deal of preparations, she collected more than two dozen sharp stones, sharpened them into rough stone knives, tore off the whole bark of the tree, mixed it with the pliable grass, and braided it into long ropes of grass, and skillfully searched the wilderness for non-poisonous wild fruits and mushrooms, and cleared a dry stone platform free of poisonous snakes and mosquitoes, and slept comfortably under the hay.
On several occasions, the vipers tried to turn her into food, but she skinned them and chewed them raw, enjoying a rare feast of meat.
Finally, she made all the preparations, tied a gourd full of water on her back, and the rope made of bark was wrapped around her body, but unfortunately the food was not abundant, but fortunately, half a year of wandering life had made her accustomed to starvation.
Even if I climbed the mountain and was rejected by the immortals because of my poor bones, I at least did my best!
......
......
The young man climbed the stairs, the hem of his clothes on the ground swept through the talisman like a ripple, and he walked into the colorful depths of Luoying like a leisurely stroll, and the people who were originally reading books or playing the piano stood up one after another and saluted the young man.
"Uncle Shi. β
"Master. β
The young man smiled, pointed to the man in white who was the leader, and with a wave of his sleeves, there was a square chessboard on the stone table under the tree.
"Fengluo, play chess with me. β
β...... Master, your chess skills ...... And...... No chess pieces......"
The white-clothed man who was named groaned, Shizun, as the youngest Yuanying elder in the thousands of years of inheritance of the Ten Thousand Origin Sect, was extremely talented, cultivated to a high level, and had a beautiful appearance and elegant speech, even in the entire cultivation realm, there were countless admirers. However, his perfect teacher is an out-and-out stinky chess basket, and like most stinky chess baskets in the world, his obsession with playing chess, even beyond his obsession, is gradually becoming a source of melancholy for his disciples.
However, even when he brought up the fact that there were no chess pieces, the boy was not annoyed, he folded off a peach blossom that had just sprouted, and with a slight movement of his fingers, the pale pink bud fell to the ground with a sonorous sound.
"You see, the chess pieces are already there. β
"Yes, Master. β
Feng Luo said weakly, Xu is because he has maintained the appearance of a teenager since he was a child, and the master has never liked children, and whenever the sect accepts disciples, he will find familiar Taoist friends to drink tea and chat, or play chess with his disciples for recreation as he did today.
It's just that even Feng Luo, who respects his teacher the most, feels that playing chess with his master is a ...... Difficult messenger.
Thinking of this, Feng Luo was weak again, he sneered and broke off a pink and white peach blossom, and was about to follow the example of his master to use the flower bud as a chess piece, but he heard an inaudible crisp sound from the array in front of him.
If it was usual, Feng Luo would not care about such a small change, but at this moment he was in a hurry to escape from the bad luck of playing chess with his master, and when he heard the sound, he hurriedly shouted loudly: "What happened! Is there someone breaking into the battle!"
"A kid broke into the mountain protection array. β
Su Hongye quietly told that in fact, the matter of Orion and Beasts straying into the mountain protection array would happen almost every three or five days, but this time the situation was special, and she also deliberately made a big fuss.
It's a pity that the young man was unmoved, he heard that a child broke into the mountain gate, his delicate brows furrowed, and he said unhappily: "After you are sure that it is a mistake, you will send it out." β
"Yes. β
The female disciple behind Su Hongye received the order and was about to go down, but Feng Luo, who was eager to be freed from the bad luck of playing chess, deliberately walked quickly to the water mirror and said, "Master, I'm afraid this kid is not simple." β
"Isn't it simple? Could it be a demon from the Demon Gate?"
Jiang was surprised to hear this, and slowly walked to the water mirror.
This kid is really not simple.
The mountain protection array is the world in the mirror, and the things seen are also illusory and real, and the day in the array is only half an hour outside the array, but the little beggar's actions still surprise him. Realizing her situation, she didn't overwhelm herself because she was abandoned, she sat on the ground and cried, and she didn't resign herself to fate. She prepared quietly and calmly, sharpening the sharp stones, peeling off the bark and twisting it into thick ropes, and turning a poisonous snake into a meal.
When the girl walked to the cliff with the rope and food on her back and raised her little head, the general's eyes even flashed with approval.
If it weren't for the fact that this kid had almost no roots in cultivating immortals, with this perseverance alone, she would also be able to become one of the best figures in the cultivation world.
The girl pierced the sharp stone into the crevice and began her first steps of climbing.
