Yun Zhenren came on time on the third day.

In the past three days, Lin Shouxi and Xiao He have been practicing in and out of each other's places, occasionally chatting and talking.

Lin Shouxi looked very leisurely, and Xiao He also followed him quietly, meditating and practicing slowly, quite demure and without any sense of urgency.

Wang Erguan is the most diligent and hardworking, he gets up the earliest, sleeps the latest, and always touches his stomach when he eats every day, saying that if he can persist in working so hard, he will be able to lose weight in less than a month.

His efforts did work, and Wang Erguan's control over the true qi was visibly soaring with the naked eye, as if he was already the strongest of the four.

Ji Luoyang looks the most steady and steady, and Lin Shouxi has also observed him practicing boxing, even with his vision, it is difficult to find any flaws.

Ji Luoyang's attitude towards Lin Shouxi was quite friendly, and he even took the initiative to help Lin Shouxi treat his injuries.

This once made Wang Erguan very nervous, after all, the waste person is a little safer.

However, Lin Shouxi also declined.

"If you can't practice, aren't you lost at all?"

Xiao He sat beside him, hugging his knees, and the calves covered by the cotton skirt were dazzlingly white.

"Of course it's going to be lost." Lin Shouxi said.

In the past two days, he looked scattered, but in fact, he was constantly healing his injuries, and the recovery speed of his injuries was faster than he imagined, but it was still not enough.

"Where the hell did you get hurt? I can bandage it for you. Xiao He said.

"It's an internal injury." Lin Shouxi said.

"Oh...... Who is that who hurts you so badly? Xiao He asked.

"A girl my age." Lin Shouxi replied.

"Is she your enemy?"

"Kind of enemy." Lin Shouxi said.

"Sort of?" Xiao He frowned and asked, "Could it be because of love and hatred?" ”

"What are you thinking?" Lin Shouxi smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Xiao He also smiled, she suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "By the way, I went to wake you up that day, when you saw me, did you call me something?" ”

"Huh?"

Lin Shouxi was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he was a little dazzled at the time, and saw the fluttering white hair against the light, and mistook the other party for an old woman, so he shouted......

"Did you call me at that time......" Xiao He recalled for a while, and said after a while: "Hmm...... Wife? ”

"I ......" Lin Shouxi didn't know how to explain for a while.

"Is this what the old woman meant?" Xiao He has lived in the mountains for a long time and doesn't know much about some words, so she touched her cheek and asked, "Do I look very old?" ”

Lin Shouxi was about to clarify his misunderstanding at the time, but Ji Luoyang on the side opened his eyes inappropriately, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "This is not what the old woman meant, one word is missing, the meaning is very different." ”

"Huh? What does that mean? Xiao He asked simply.

"It's the daughter-in-law." Ji Luoyang was blunt.

Xiao Hetan's mouth opened slightly, her immature cheeks burned up, she got up with her skirt, and after saying 'frivolous', she ran back to the room with her head down, and hurriedly closed the door.

Lin Shouxi sighed, thinking that this time it was completely unclear.

Ji Luoyang smiled gloatingly.

In the afternoon of the same day, Ji Luoyang also invited Lin Shouxi to learn martial arts, and Lin Shouxi agreed for the first time.

They simply tried their fist and kick moves, and they didn't use their true qi, Ji Luoyang knew that he was injured, and his attack would not be serious.

Wang Erguan was surprised to find that this person named Lin Shouxi played quite beautifully.

But if you can't drive the true qi, what's the use of the beautiful moves.

"Flower fist embroidered legs." Wang Erguan was dismissive.

When Xiao He came out of the house again, Wang Erguan also leaned over and said sarcastically: "Miss Xiao He, look, you just disappeared all morning, and your husband Jun Ke is about to run away with other men." ”

Xiao He looked at Lin Shouxi and Ji Luoyang, biting his pink lips and snorting, "Who is his daughter-in-law." ”

But at dinner, they still sit down and eat together.

"Don't call me that again." Xiao He said solemnly.

"Okay." Lin Shouxi readily agreed.

The scene was suddenly a little quiet, Lin Shouxi turned around and found that Xiao He was looking at him, his lips pursed into lines, and his face was cold.

"Am I saying something wrong again?" Lin Shouxi never thought he was stupid before, but recently he began to doubt himself.

"That's right." Xiao He snorted lightly, got up and went back to the house again.

Lin Shouxi pondered for a while, then looked at Wang Erguan and Ji Luoyang, and humbly asked: "What she said is right, is it right or ...... That's right? ”

Wang Erguan laughed heartily, and Ji Luoyang quipped: "Your elders haven't taught you this before?" ”

"Yes, I did." Lin Shouxi said.

"How was it taught?" Ji Luoyang asked curiously.

"Respond to change with the same." After Lin Shouxi finished speaking, he continued to eat in an orderly manner, practicing the teachings of his master.

Ji Luoyang was dumbfounded.

Lin Shouxi's strategy was effective, and on the second day, Xiao He continued to practice and eat with him as if nothing had happened.

Ji Luoyang saw it and jokingly called it 'husband and wife have no overnight feud', Xiao He glared at him fiercely.

Today's weather is not very good, gloomy clouds, occasionally seeing the skylight, Xiao He sat on the edge of the cliff, looking at the black strange bird hovering under the clouds, and his eyes swept over the dry lake with it.

"I don't know what the god of the town guard looks like." Xiao He said: "My aunt said that the gods who can live until now are definitely the heroes who dominated the side back then...... That thing isn't still secretly watching us. ”

She leaned closer to Lin Shouxi's side.

"Maybe it's a terrible monster." Lin Shouxi said casually.

"Youkai aren't scary at all." Xiao He once again emphasized: "Those evil gods in the sea and the dragon corpses in the depths of the earth are the most terrifying enemies. ”

"yes." Lin Shouxi thought that since he was the most terrible enemy, he should be known to everyone, so he silently wrote it down, and then nodded.

"Well, especially the dragon corpses, it is clear that the dragon clan has been extinct for so many years, but those white bones are still ghostly, crawling out of the ground from time to time." Xiao He said with palpitations: "My aunt told me that the city walls outside the Divine Mountain have been broken by dragon corpses several times, and the most powerful one of them almost forced the Patriarch Law Body. ”

"Ancestor Dharma Body?" Lin Shouxi expressed curiosity.

"That's right, it's the Dharma Body of our Terran ancestor." Xiao He said.

"The Ancestor...... Did he survive until now? Lin Shouxi remembered Zhuangzi's Peng Zu.

"Why don't you know this?"

"I really can't remember a lot of things, my brain is broken, you ...... It should be seen. Lin Shouxi said with some embarrassment.

"Hmmm! I do see it. Xiao He thought about getting along in the past few days, and nodded thoughtfully.

Lin Shouxi sighed in agreement.

He didn't ask about the ancestor, since the ancestor was also a well-known person, there would always be a chance to know about it in the future.

"Thank you." Lin Shouxi said suddenly.

"Thank you for what I'm doing?" Xiao He said.

"Thank you for helping me remember so many things." Lin Shouxi said.

"And how are you going to thank me?" Xiao He asked shyly.

"What do you want?"

"Hmm...... Then I'll eat you. "Xiao Hewaner.

"Let's change the demand, I still have to live." Lin Shouxi said seriously.

"You're so boring." Xiao He sighed.

"yes, so I don't want to eat it." Lin Shouxi said: "I'm thinking about you. ”

"You don't seem to be so boring again." Xiao He smiled again.

They sat on the edge of the cliff and watched into the wind until the blackbird and the lake were swallowed up by the night.

Early the next morning, Yun Zhenren appeared in the courtyard, still carrying a wooden sword, but carrying a copper wire birdcage in his hand, and there was a feathered finch in the birdcage.

He's here to put them to the test.

Yun Zhenren concisely said the content of the assessment, and there are two contents:

One is to let them pierce the wood with their true qi and iron needles to see how much they can penetrate; The second is to stand in front of the birdcage and touch the copper wire of the birdcage with your hand, and the finch in the cage will judge the level of the other party's bones through the call.

"Is this little sparrow so smart?" Wang Erguan looked at the beautiful white bird in the cage and was amazed.

"This is the most precious bird of the Wu family, and its body flows with the blood of the ancient white phoenix that has long been extinct." Yun Zhenren's indifferent words revealed arrogance: "If it weren't for its body in the cage, with what you just said, it would cut your belly, peck at your eyes, and eat your flesh and blood." ”

Ancient White Phoenix......

Wang Erguan was taken aback, he knew what it meant, legend has it that on the ancient earth, there was a dragon and phoenix inhabiting between the thunderclouds, and it overlooked the world from the clouds, and the territory was as far as the eye could see, and wherever its shadow passed, no matter the evil spirits and gods, they were silent and did not dare to speak!

If most of the gods are just legends, then the white phoenix is even more at the end of the legend, which is one of the few black shadows that shrouded the world when chaos first opened!

This small bird is actually its descendant, although it has been separated by tens of thousands of generations, but it is still noble.

Wang Erguan hurriedly clasped his hands together, and the great immortal shouted a few words, hoping that this little sparrow would be angry.

Yun Zhenren didn't bother to talk nonsense, he went out with a birdcage and led them to an ancient tree.

The branches of the ancient trees are twisted, and the fallen leaves are withered, as if they have long since died.

Yun Zhenren took out a slender iron needle and handed it to them, asking them to use their true qi to harness the needle to pierce the ancient tree in front of them.

Wang Erguan volunteered to start first, he drove the iron needle, the iron needle was undulating at first, but he quickly stabilized after mastering the essentials, but although the ancient tree was rotten and dead, the trunk was still hard, and after the iron needle pierced into an inch, it was difficult to move forward.

Wang Erguan looked at Yun Zhenren tremblingly, and when he saw Yun Zhenren nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Luoyang also controlled the needle like him, and the final result was similar to Wang Erguan.

followed by Xiao He, Xiao He's true qi is soft, and he is methodical when he controls the needle, because it is too gentle, and he lacks strength when piercing into the trees, and the result is slightly inferior to the first two.

The last one is Lin Shouxi.

Lin Shouxi took the iron needle and thought seriously for a while.

"If you can't, don't force it, lest your injuries worsen." Wang Erguan said with a smile.

Ji Luoyang stared at him with a solemn expression.

Xiao He clenched his small fists, as if to cheer him up.

Wang Erguan's smile quickly froze on his face.

Because the needle really flew.

"You can't be helping him cheat." Wang Erguan looked at Xiao He.

"Shhhh Xiao He glared back.

"Isn't he a waster?" Wang Erguan couldn't accept it.

"He's just injured, he's better than you, and you'll be less likely to take advantage of others in the future." Xiao He is very protective of Lin Shouxi.

Wang Erguan looked at the needle with fear, fortunately, the injury had a great impact on Lin Shouxi, although the needle touched the tree, it failed to pierce it.

Yun Zhenren looked at the fluttering needle, thinking about Lin Shouxi's injury, and once again felt a sense of pity.

He felt that this was a malleable talent, but it was a pity that it was a matter of a month to accept the inheritance of the gods, and time would not wait for him.

It's a pity that the mood is light and meaningless.

Yun Zhenren suspended the copper wire birdcage in the air, and the little bird with white feathers and black eyes chirped twice, which sounded harmless to humans and animals.

The four disciples touched the birdcage one after another.

is worthy of being the person chosen by the town guard, whether it is Wang Erguan, Ji Luoyang or Xiao He, who looks weak and petite, this little finch with the blood of the white phoenix has a lot of voice, and they all give high praise.

Among them, the loudest shout was Wang Erguan.

Fang Cai's depression was swept away, Wang Erguan was very proud, couldn't help grinning again, and looked at Lin Shouxi defiantly.

Lin Shouxi noticed that although this little finch had a loud cry and spoke highly of them, its pupils always had a look of contempt.

That is the condescending contempt of the bloodline.

Lin Shouxi didn't know why, he was a little resistant in his heart and hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Xiao He noticed his abnormality.

"It's fine." Lin Shouxi shook his head.

Wang Erguan did not forget to sneer: "You won't be blinded by this...... The white-eyed immortal was frightened, right? ”

Lin Shouxi did not answer.

His heart throbbed, and he vaguely felt something.

As if there was a secret pull of fate, he unconsciously walked in front of it, and his hand touched the slightly cool cage.

The throbbing fell into place.

As if flesh and blood were pools, this throbbing sank into it, and the sound of cracking armor was shocked, causing hundreds of corpses around to tremble together.

Then, the moves of the White Pupil and Black Phoenix Sword Sutra were like nameless mist, rising from the bottom of his heart and curling in his chest, as if the black finch spread its wings, enveloping him in the middle.

Lin Shouxi felt that he was standing on the white snowfield, there was no one around, the heavy snow did not stop day and night, and there was a bronze hall in the depths of the snowfield, and a dark shadow was nailed to the center of the hall, and the sword that ran through it was covered with green rust.

When he came back to his senses, he found that there was silence all around.

It was Wang Erguan's laughter that broke the peace.

Yun Zhenren looked at Lin Shouxi and shook his head, and the meaning of cherishing talent in his eyes disappeared.

The white finch in the cage did not chirp or call, as if it was extremely contemptuous of the young man in front of him.

But only Lin Shouxi could see clearly that the contempt in the white bird's pupils had long since disappeared, replaced by deep fear!

It seems that when the criminal minister sees the king, he only dares to kneel down and dare not raise his head, let alone speak up!

Lin Shouxi's hand left the cage and turned to leave.

When Yun Zhenren went to lift the birdcage, the white finch screamed in hindsight.

The sky flashed, and the thunder rang out.

Just as there was a shock, it fell and slammed on the ancient tree before, and the ancient tree was instantly destroyed, and the scorching smoke billowed out.
