Chapter 101: Challenge
What the?
Song Yi's eyes widened, what he meant by this ......
The boss looked at him, suddenly jumped out of the topic, and asked a seemingly irrelevant question-
"Shenzhou has a vast territory, and there are many cultivation sects inside and outside the mountains, do you know what position the Yuequan Sect has among the many sects?"
Song Yi was stunned for a moment, frozen on the spot, he really didn't know this question, as an outsider, he didn't know much about the Yuequan Sect, how could he know the situation of other families?
Seeing that he couldn't answer, the head said: "An ordinary sect that is not big, not small, not up or down." ”
Really?
Song Yi was a little surprised, the Yuequan Sect stretched over several mountains, built majestically and magnificently, there were thousands of people up and down, and it turned out to be just an ordinary sect?
After the shock, Song Yi's mind turned, the head of the house mentioned this topic, is it ......
"What do you mean...... The Moon Spring Sect deliberately wants to be an ordinary sect?"
"Not bad. The head nodded, revealing a look of approval that "the son can teach", and said slowly: "The big hidden in the city, for people with secrets, it is safest to hide in the crowd, blur their identities and mix with ordinary people." If the sect is too small, it generally means that the inheritance is limited, the talent is withered, and the ability to protect itself is lacking, just like a lonely boat in the sea, and you may be completely overturned when a wave comes; Just like our Elder Yuheng, he wanted to be quiet, but someone didn't let him be quiet. ”
Song Yi listened silently and understood that the head was bringing out the secret step by step.
"Maybe it's fate, maybe it's chance, until a few days ago, there was a special thing in the Yuequan Sect, this thing was kept and passed down by the heads of the previous generations, and no one else knew about it, let alone touched it. ”
Hearing this, Song Yi's head suddenly "buzzed", and the whole person tensed.
Does this really exist?!
I think that at the beginning, when he first went to visit the residence of the little senior brother, he happened to meet a wave of lackeys of the Fengyi Court. These people were ordered by Ji Yushu to rummage things in the little senior brother's house. When Song Yi took them down and asked them what they were looking for, they couldn't say clearly, they only said that Elder Tianji wanted it, and only the master had seen it in the door, and he might leave a few words for the little senior brother.
Could it be that what Fengyi Court wants to find is this thing that the head of the house said?
"You're talking about...... What's that?"
Although he knew that the head would not speak, Song Yi couldn't help but ask.
"You don't have the qualifications to know now, but you may have in the future. The head glanced at him and said in a low voice: "There is no impermeable wall in the world, although the regulations are like this, but it is not guaranteed that some elders in high positions knowingly or unintentionally know about the existence of this thing, and then make any decisions...... Therefore, for a person like Tianji, it is a good way to let him focus on his immediate interests, and to focus on his position and reputation, and have no time to use his brain on the core secrets of the Yuequan Sect. ”
Really......
"However, Elder Tianji seems to already know. ”
Song Yi talked about the actions of the Fengyi Court that day.
"Expected. After hearing this, the head of the house was unimpressed, and said slowly: "What he knows is not more than what you know now." Tianji only knew that such a thing existed, what it was and what it was for, he didn't understand. ”
It's good that there is no exposure.
Song Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Even so, Elder Tianji has been doing evil everywhere these days, and he has hurt some innocent people very much. ”
"I'm sorry for this, although I'm the head of the family, I'm still just a mortal, not an immortal, and I don't have the ability to do both, the best of both worlds. In order to take good care of this big secret, there are indeed occasional negligence on weekdays, and there are some things that cannot be taken care of, which makes the juniors in the door feel wronged...... However, Tianji has been dormant before, and he is afraid of me, all he has done is to beat up and down, disgusting people, and there has been no major incident, and this time he really crossed the line. ”
Knowing that the head was telling the truth, Song Yi was a little helpless, this kind of feeling that the whip was beyond the reach of almost everyone, and because of his position, the head should feel it more deeply than himself.
Thinking back to the words of the head of the sect before, Song Yi noticed a detail and asked, "You just said that until a few days ago, this secret was still in the Yuequan Sect, is it not there now?"
"It's gone. The head smiled slightly: "It is precisely because it is no longer there that I can relax and decide to eradicate some tumors that should have been eradicated a long time ago, such as ...... People you say you shouldn't continue to use. Want to know how it's not there?"
Song Yi nodded.
"The history of its absence can be closely related to you......"
The head deliberately sold a pass, stopped, looked at Song Yi's surprised and expectant look, and said word by word: "A few days ago, during the time you were going down the mountain, your master Du Yilou secretly came back and took it away. ”
What the?!
Song Yi's eyes widened, he stood up with a "rub", stared at the master, and asked in disbelief: "Master...... Master?!"
"Not bad. ”
The head smiled a little proudly and beckoned to him: "Sit down, sit down and say, it's not stable to bounce up at every turn, and those who want to do great things must be stable." ”
"You...... You just said Master, he came back?"
Song Yi sat down slowly, feeling a thump in his chest.
Master actually returned to the Yuequan Sect? Still in the time when he went down the mountain? This was a specially selected day, and he deliberately chose a time when none of the disciples were there, or did he have any other considerations?
What was the reason why he took away the "secret" that the Yuequan Sect had been keeping?
"He came back quietly, without anyone noticing, and when he came back, he only saw me, and even Qingning didn't know. The head said, "I talked to him for half the night, gave him the things, and he took them and left." ”
"Yes......"
That's it? It's not that simple, is it?
Song Yi was stunned and asked, "Master, did he say anything else?"
"Are you trying to ask him if he mentioned you? Yes or no. He has some explanations, but I can't tell you right now, and you'll know when the time comes. ”
“...... What did Master take that secret for?"
"He was planning to do something, and I didn't know much, but I was convinced that he wouldn't mess around, and I had always trusted him completely, so, I decided to give it to him. ”
"Boss ......"
An idea suddenly popped up in Song Yi's mind, and he couldn't help but ask: "Have you known my master for a long time? Master has long planned to come to the Yuequan Sect to be a guest, and it has a lot to do with you?"
"So to speak. The head smiled calmly and calmly: "However, that's another story, it's too early to tell you, and when you can pass the test, it's not too late for us to talk about it." ”
Song Yi was a little puzzled, what test?
The head of the door stood up, walked into the reception room, took out a box from the cabinet on the wall, and said to Song Yi: "Just now you said that Elder Tianji is not a usable person, I agree." Since he is not available, someone has to take his place when the crisis comes. ”
Song Yi also stood up and nodded.
"You brought up this topic, so how about you make it happen?" the head patted the box in his palm and said to him: "There is a magic circle here, you take it back, open it in your courtyard, pass the challenge in the array, and then you can replace Elder Tianji." ”
What the?!
Song Yi was taken aback, looked at the box in the master's hand, and then looked at the master.
"I ...... I'm going to replace Elder Dimensity?"
"What, scared?"
The head of the sect stuffed the box into his hand: "Let me tell you first, this magic circle is for trials, and once it is opened, you will face a great challenge, which is beyond the limit of your current ability." If you can pass successfully, your strength will be greatly improved, and you will be able to replace Elder Dimensity. ”
Challenge...... Hearing this, Song Yi became excited again, took the box, and checked it in his hand.
"Let me remind you that you don't have much time, the Patriarch Festival has two days to go, and you have to pass the trial in two days. I'll help the seedlings grow, so you can do your best. ”
“...... I'll give it my all. ”
"Very good, after you pass, I will summon you again, and when the time comes, all the secrets of the Moon Spring Sect will be opened to you...... Let's do it now. ”
Before the words fell, the head waved his robe sleeves at him, Song Yi only felt that a flower shadow flickered in front of him, and the whole person was confused, as if he had taken a nap, and as if he was walking in a dream, and after three or two steps, the person woke up.
Shaking his head, Song Yi looked around, only to see that the sky was slightly dark, the clouds were flying, and he was still standing on the side of the bamboo bridge outside Mo Qingning's courtyard. The gate of the courtyard was open, and the fallen leaves were swept clean, but there was no raccoon slave, only the broom quietly stood aside.
Unlike Fang Cai, Mo Qingning had already returned, standing under the luxuriant flower tree in the courtyard, holding the Chengying but Evil Sword, and bowing his head slightly towards Song Yi.
Seeing him here, Song Yi's heart was relieved, which meant that the masters had been rescued.
Carrying the box given by the master, Song Yi also nodded at him, turned around and ran away.
Back in his courtyard, Song Yi couldn't take a breath, so he began to study how to use this magic circle.
According to the master, as long as the wooden box is opened, the circle will be activated, and once it is activated, the people in the formation will automatically meet the challenge, or success, or failure, before they can go out of the formation, and they can neither pause nor regret quitting halfway.
The head of the sect not only used this thing to improve his cultivation, but also said that it was to help the seedlings grow, and most of them hid a vicious battle in the magic circle.
Song Yi weighed it in his heart for a moment, took a deep breath, and slowly opened the lid of the box.
Boom -
A muffled sound rose into the air, shaking the entire space, and the four walls of the courtyard seemed to sense something, making a subtle and noisy sound, followed by silence at the same time.
At the same time, the ground flashed brightly, and the wooden box disappeared, and a small cave appeared where the wooden box had been placed, no more than a foot in diameter, and it was pitch black inside. Song Yi looked into the cave in surprise and couldn't see anything.
