Chapter 124: The First Man in Three Hundred Years

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

The middle-aged man's words were slightly cold, with some anger. Although these books are primers on cultivation, they are all written by sages, and they should not be despised by a young man.

The eyes of the rest of the people also changed, they were shocked by Lin Shouxi's arrogance, and they only felt that this person was either a peerless genius, or a stupid madman who had never seen the world outside the wall.

"I know."

Lin Shouxi didn't explain too much, and walked straight towards the depths of Mutang.

Bai Zhu was very confident in him, and sat on the cloud conch to cheer him on, but Mu Shijing shook his head disdainfully, and only spit out two cold words between his lips:

"It's really pretending."

Lin Shouxi's back quickly disappeared into the corner separated by wooden planks. He followed the disciples through a willow courtyard and came to the examination room to begin answering. No one has a rolling stone in front of each paper, in addition to the function of fixing the paper, it can also detect the flow of true qi, once the candidate uses the moving spirit root or true qi, the stone will make a warning sound.

The bell rang, and the middle-aged man lit a stick of incense.

Lin Shouxi sat in his place and calmly looked at the exam papers in front of him. There are a total of fifty-nine questions on the volume, with a wide variety of types, including thousands of people, Lin Shouxi's eyes swept from above, his face was not sad, but he didn't know why he didn't start writing.

The middle-aged man was very concerned about him, seeing that his gaze swept over every question, but he didn't write it for a long time, he couldn't help but shake his head, he felt that this disciple looked at his face and was a person with outstanding talent, but in addition to his talent, what was more important was his heart, arrogance and complacency were deformities after all, and if he didn't correct it, he would suffer endlessly. And when this is the first lesson for him.

Seven hundred years ago, when human cultivators were in a vigorous era, there were countless ferocious demons due to excessive martial arts, and their destruction of human beings was far greater than that of evil spirits and dragon corpses, and since then, the mind has become one of the most important considerations on the path of cultivation.

The middle-aged man just wanted to look away, but saw that Lin Shouxi finally picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and he wrote quickly, as if without thinking, as if he had already made up his mind.

He finished the paper, looked at it again, and got up to leave.

The incense didn't burn for long, and even the first piece of ash didn't fall, and ordinary disciples only did it do the fifth question.

He was the last to arrive, and his position was arranged last, so as he walked by, he would pass by everyone's tables, and the disciples looked up one after another, wondering if he had handed in the blank scroll.

"Where are you going? The exit is on that side. The middle-aged man stopped him again.

"There are only fifty-nine questions on this paper, and there is one question missing, shouldn't I go to the last one?" Lin Shouxi asked.

The middle-aged man looked at him deeply, finally lowered his hand, and said, "You go." ”

Lin Shouxi left the examination room and came to the next courtyard, and the disciples in the front row were so shocked that they didn't even notice the ink dripping when they saw this scene, because in their perspective, Lin Shouxi almost disappeared through the wall...... Could it be that this wall is just a trick? The last question is hidden behind a wall?

Lin Shouxi came behind the wall.

There was a hole in the back of the wall, it was a road leading to the forest at the foot of the mountain, and there were signs on the side of the road telling him that the final examination room was ahead.

On the road to the examination room, there is a ruined temple with no incense. Lin Shouxi walked into the temple by the way.

In late autumn, the temple was covered with thick leaves, and a thin old man was brushing the ground with a broom, and he bent over to sweep aside the thick withered broad leaves.

Lin Shouxi walked into the temple courtyard and quietly watched the old man sweep the fallen leaves.

He didn't realize anything from the withering and withering of the leaves or the old man's pale face, he just stood there quietly, and the old man didn't seem to see him, and continued to sweep the fallen leaves, occasionally rolling up his sleeves and wiping the sweat from his forehead.

Then, the sound of banging on the dishes and chopsticks came from behind Lin Shouxi, and he turned around and found an old man with withered hair and missing teeth standing outside the door.

"I don't have any money." Lin Shouxi said.

The old man seemed to be a dumb man, and he screamed a few times, not knowing what he was talking about, and looked extremely pitiful.

"Do I have to pay money to take the next exam?" Lin Shouxi asked seriously.

The mute looked puzzled.

"If I donate a few copper coins to you, even if I am kind-hearted to help him sweep a fallen leaf, it will be too simple." Lin Shouxi said.

When he was a child, he also heard a pair of brothers apprentice to learn art, on the way to study met a beggar, the strong brother disdained the beggar, and the thin brother gave him a copper coin, after going up the mountain, they were surprised to find that the beggar was actually the master of the sect, and finally the younger brother was admitted, and the elder brother regretted going down the mountain.

When Lin Shouxi was a child, he felt that this story was very nonsense, but they didn't expect Yunkong Mountain to be obedient and really execute.

"You may not be a good person to do it, but if you are not willing to do it, you must not be a good person." The old man who swept the floor was recognized and angrily stacked the broom.

"But if I knowingly act pretend, wouldn't it be hypocrisy?" Lin Shouxi asked.

He did not pretend to be ignorant and did this false good deed, and he felt that he was at least sincere.

The other dumb old man was much more pragmatic, he knocked on the bowl and asked, "Are you ...... Really no money? ”

"Nope."

"I see that you look like a foreigner, you have no money, how did you come all the way to Yunkong Mountain?"

"My sister's money I spent." Lin Shouxi said frankly.

If Mu Shijing was not by his side, he was destined to sleep in the open along the way.

"Okay, it's still a soft rice eater." The old man was indignant.

Lin Shouxi was delayed here for a long time, and there were other candidates in the examination room who finished the questions, Lin Shouxi looked back and found that the first to come was actually the little girl who had accosted him before.

The little girl was also very surprised when she saw Lin Shouxi, she was wearing a pear-colored top, lifting the pink skirt and running quickly, the girl covered the wound on her forehead with her hand, and said hello to Lin Shouxi carefully.

"Hello ......"

"Hello." Lin Shouxi also said.

The little girl was very restrained, she didn't dare to look at Lin Shouxi's face, and she didn't even dare to get too close, Lin Shouxi thought about her previous conversation with Mu Shijing, and took the initiative to speak:

"Your name is ...... Twin thoughts? ”

"Well, yes."

Shuang Sisi was surprised and delighted, but he didn't expect him to secretly remember her name, it seems that the sister was really right, "My name is Shuang Sisi, so others call me ......"

"Sisi?"

"Hmm...... Both. ”

“……”

Both fell silent at the same time.

"They are ......" Shuang Sisi saw the sweepers and beggars in the ruined temple, and felt pity.

The two old men glanced at each other, and they didn't bother to pretend anymore, they dusted off the dust on their clothes, changed their momentum, and put their hands behind their backs. Then, the figures of the two old men with the same movements and body shapes shattered at the same time, turning into two balls of flying sand, and after dancing in the air, they merged into one, and when they reappeared, they had swept away the appearance of the old dragon bell. He is burly and in good spirits.

Shuang Sisi, who was still digging out a pink purse, was taken aback when he saw this situation, and sighed that the immortal was worthy of being an immortal, and he could turn his body into sand and divide it into two.

"Let's go, come with me to the final test." The old man stroked his white beard and walked forward.

On the way, Shuang Sisi asked Lin Shouxi for tips on how to cross the wall, and she was already the fastest among the others, but she still broke her forehead.

"I didn't have any skills, it wasn't a wall in my eyes, it was a door, so I walked through it." Lin Shouxi said.

"Forget that a wall is a wall...... Seeing through the appearance at a glance and going straight to the truth, Lin Gongzi thinks that he has a pure heart. Shuangsisi held his ten fingers in front of him, revealing admiration.

“…… Maybe. ”

"I knew you were very powerful, unlike me, your head was about to burst." Shuang Sisi also came in inexplicably, and she even suspected that the wall was pitying herself.

"Why don't you go over the wall?" Lin Shouxi asked curiously.

"Over the wall?" Shuang Sisi was taken aback, thinking to himself that in such a majestic place as the examination room, how could anyone do such a thing? Not to mention......

The girl pressed the hem of her skirt with her hand, bit her lip and lowered her head shyly.

Finally, I came to the final examination room.

The old man showed them the rules of the exam.

"The content of this test is not difficult, what is tested is the sharpness of your five senses, there are three levels, the first level, you will have a hundred glasses of water in front of you, of which ninety-nine cups are hidden hallucinogenic things, only one cup is normal, you have to drink one of the glasses of water, the second level has two relief murals, these two murals seem to be exactly the same, but in fact there are four differences, you have to find it before the hourglass is finished, as for the third level......"

The old man sold a pass and said, "You will know when you arrive." ”

Lin Shouxi nodded, indicating that he understood, the old man inserted three incense sticks, lit the first one, and said: "The disciples of the past hundred years, through this room, the fastest only took one-eighth of the incense stick time, I see that you are pretentious, I don't know if you can break this record." ”

"One-eighth pillar incense ......"

Shuang Sisi was surprised, she knew just by listening to the rules that even if these levels themselves were not difficult, they were extremely time-consuming, a hundred glasses of colorless and tasteless water, just to identify them would be extremely time-consuming, not to mention the two magnificent relief murals behind......

One-eighth pillar of incense, how can this be done by immortals?

The old man deceived Lin Shouxi, in fact, the fastest customs clearer also used a quarter of the pillar of incense, the old man just remembered the fact that he broke the temple and demolished it, and made up an impossible time to provoke him.

Lin Shouxi didn't delve into anything, and when he came to a hundred glasses of water, he didn't look at it, he directly picked up a cup and drank it.

"How can you be sure it's hallucinogenic?" The old man was puzzled by this move.

"Not sure." Lin Shouxi said: "I just took it casually." ”

"Then you ......"

"I have the antidote."

Lin Shouxi said, the Xuanzi Qi Pill in the body reversed, the Qingguang Ding emitted a faint light, and inhaled a drop of water, this Ding was like an old doctor, quickly giving an explanation, and after a while, the fire in the hearth was extinguished, and a thin ray of light floated into the internal organs, and the hallucinogenic medicine was dissipated by the Qingguang Ding before it was dispersed.

"You actually cultivated the art of refining the tripod?" The old man was so well-informed that he recognized this method at a glance.

A person who has practiced the art of refining the tripod is equivalent to a walking Dan furnace, and ordinary medicines can't help him at all.

"This hallucinogenic medicine will make people lost, see the person they want to see the most, see the thing they crave the most, those who are not strong in their minds will often indulge in it, sleep for several hours, even if they are firm in the Dao heart, it usually takes a stick of incense, I didn't expect you to have this solution." The old man stroked his beard, not knowing whether to sigh or admire.

"That's it......" Lin Shouxi heard this, but his footsteps stopped slightly, he lowered his head and said softly: "I already knew I couldn't understand." ”

The old man was slightly stunned, and when he raised his head, Lin Shouxi had already walked in front of the boulder carving.

The emperor sits on the throne with a hollow face, and the ministers stand in all directions, kneeling on the ground, not daring to look up to the honor of the king, and behind the throne, there are seven divine swords, each sword is killing a hideous and ugly devil, they open their huge mouths, as if to devour the Holy Spirit on the throne, and a woman in a palace skirt with a blurred face stands aside, holding an oracle, reading something.

"A thousand years ago, the human race was divided into two classes, the strong and scarce faction was called the immortals, and the weak and numerous faction was called the soil beings, the immortals did not want the soil beings to divide the cultivation resources, and wanted to banish them to the filthy and dark land to fend for themselves, and the soil beings persuaded the emperor with their own efforts, so that the emperor vetoed the human race's exile plan, and instead opened the era of the cultivation of all peoples."

The saintess on the mural is announcing the beginning of the era of cultivation, the first to follow the emperor of the immortal is full of unwillingness, and the rest of the rejoicing are the soil life.

"It was a great day." The old man said.

Today, under the washing of thousands of years of wind and frost, human beings have long lost the difference between immortals and soil beings, or in other words, almost everyone has the common blood of these two races flowing in their bodies, only some secret families are still stubbornly demanding the purity of blood.

"Is our Terran only a thousand years old?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"The history we can still remember is only a thousand years." The old man said.

Lin Shouxi was puzzled, obviously this world looks more ancient, and civilization was born earlier, why is the length of history not as good as his old world?

Lin Shouxi didn't think much about it for the time being, he stretched out his finger and quickly pointed out three differences.

"What about the other place?" The old man asked.

"There are only three." Lin Shouxi said.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

"You...... How do you see it? ”

The old man was puzzled, there were tens of thousands of details in this picture, why was he able to quickly find out the three differences, and why was he sure that there were only three differences in total?

"Because they...... It's glaring. Lin Shouxi opened his mouth lightly and gave a reason that did not look like a reason.

The old man's eyes narrowed, he sighed, followed Lin Shouxi forward, and said to himself: "The old man wants to see how you can pretend to be ......."

Coming to the deepest part, there was nothing else in front of Lin Shouxi, but a pool of water.

"There is a fish in this pool, this fish was made by the immortals by secret methods, it has no eyes, no gills, no body, no scales, no difference from water, it swims in it, and it can't even stir up the slightest wave, but it will make a very slight sound, which is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish." The old man said, "Take this net and get it out of the water." ”

"Can I help with something else?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"What do you want to use?" The old man was alarmed.

"I've learned a little bit of thunder and lightning......"

"Sacred mountains are not electrified fish." The old man coldly refused.

The old man cut off this crooked way, hoping that this young man could really show him his ability, I have to say, although he was a little dissatisfied with this young man's pretentious appearance, he already felt in his heart that this was a very malleable genius.

If Mu Shijing is here, I'm afraid he doesn't need to open his eyes to catch the fish, his perception is not as good as Mu Shijing, and he doesn't want to waste too much time, so he can only find another way.

Lin Shouxi thought about it, pointed a little, ran the white pupil black phoenix sword scripture, used the finger as a sword, dotted the water surface, and then suddenly mentioned it, the sword scripture's control over the water was instantly stimulated, and for a while, there seemed to be an invisible giant hand that held the entire pool in the palm of his hand, and the already small pool water rose into the air and converged towards the position of his fingers, and the whole pool was lifted up by him in this way!

The old man looked at this scene and was dumbfounded, he knew that this young man was in a good realm, but this grabbed the magic power of the pond full of water...... Could it be that he has the spiritual root of water?

The water of the pool was directly emptied, and a fish made of water fell back to the bottom of the pool, churning his body, Lin Shouxi leaned down and caught it easily with a net, and then he let go of his fingers, and the pool water lost its support and fell back into the pool.

Lin Shouxi glanced at the incense and burned one-eighth of it, and he said with some regret: "It's a pity that it only tied the fastest record." ”

"No, you're the fastest right now." The old man looked at the fish with a complicated expression, and only felt that in the future that was visible to the naked eye, this record should be difficult to break again.

"Before you came, the number one had held the record for three hundred years, and she threatened back then that no one of her peers would be stronger than her in another three hundred years, and she never thought that the three-hundred-year barrier would be broken by you." The old man said.

"Who's that man?" Lin Shouxi was interested.

"She is now on Yunkong Mountain, her name has been hidden, and everyone respects her as the owner of the Immortal Tower." The old man said.

A real big man like Gong Yu will use secret methods to hide his fame after the Great Dao is cultivated, and many people who were once familiar with her will also forget her name, only sisters like Chu Miao, who grew up together, will be allowed to remember, so her name will not appear on the various lists in the newspaper.

The owner of the fairy building?

Lin Shouxi was taken aback, thinking to himself could it be Bai Zhu's master?

"A person like you, who has a peerless education, should be directly accepted as a disciple of the inner sect, and you come to Chaoyun Hall...... Is it time to smash the field? The old man said with a wry smile.

"The teacher I want to meet is among these twenty-four gates, and I came here helplessly." Lin Shouxi said.

"Oh? Who do you want to worship? Is it the first of the twenty-four sects now, the first day of the two hundred and ninety-nine years, or the Wang Immortal Master whose disciples are all immortals? Or ......"

"I'm going to see Chu Yingchan." Lin Shouxi interrupted.

"What? Chu Yingchan? The old man's expression changed, "You mean...... You're going to join Truman? ”

"Yes."

"Do you know Fairy Chu's current realm?"

"Clear."

"It's hard for her mud bodhisattva to cross the river now, and it's difficult for a sect like her to apply to Yunkong Mountain for even the immortal herb elixir, you ...... Are you serious? The old man was confused.

"Of course." Lin Shouxi said.

The old man was angry now, "Then you lied to me that you had no money in the broken temple before?" ”

"I really don't have any money." Lin Shouxi didn't know why he brought up this matter again.

"Don't deceive people, the queen of Chu invited a person like you to come to apprentice, you won't not give a penny, or do you mean that you are the queen's appointed, future ...... Chu State Horse? The old man's expression became more and more complicated as he looked at him.
