Section 4 Knife test

It's night, Shushan Lookout, Dao Zhen's heart is stumbling and difficult to sleep, take the purity to this distraction, the night is hazy, the surroundings are silent, Dao Zhen looks up at the starry sky, the stars are dotted, from time to time there are a few stars shining, and there are stars dim, sprinkling a layer of silver-white light on the ground. "With the wisdom of Zhuhai, the Zhenling Bead is by no means so easy for people to find, otherwise the legend of the Zhenling Bead would not have been passed down to this day. It's just that the links in the middle are interlocking, and I don't know how much time will be delayed, and I don't know how many things will happen in it. "It is the last wish of the second uncle to find the Zhenling Pearl, and it is what Shushan wants, and it is also the yearning of my heart, the two are contradictory, how should I choose?" Heavens should not, but a female voice answered him.

"Master Zhen, how can you have the leisure to come here to see the stars?" Dao Zhen turned around, Sima Linyan was still wearing a purple shirt, but she didn't have the courage when she saw her during the day, here she was no different from an ordinary woman, with a tenderness between her eyebrows and eyes, Dao Zhen felt that Sima Linyan was very beautiful for the first time. "It's you—you're still asking me?Can't I come here if you can come?" Dao Zhen asked rhetorically, and Lin Yan confronted: "This place is not your home, I'm here to see the stars, are you also here to see the stars?" ......" Dao Zhen was speechless, and then turned around and continued to look at the night.

"Do you have something on your mind?" ......" Dao Zhen did not speak, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence. Lin Yan quipped: "If you have something on your mind, don't stand so high." If you fall, you will definitely be crushed~" "Poof. Dao Zhen was amused by Lin Yan's words, and his depressed mood suddenly felt a lot lighter, so he took a few steps back. "Wandering between two things, I don't know how to choose. "What's the matter, let's hear about it?" "This ......" Dao Zhen didn't want Zhen Lingzhu to know about it now, so he hesitated for a moment and didn't say it. Seeing that he didn't want to say, Sima Linyan said: "If you don't want to say it, forget it, you are a big man, take it when you should take it, and put it down when you should put it down, what is there to hesitate~" Dao Zhen seemed to listen a little, and she said again: "As long as you have more time, do one thing first and then another, it's all the same." "As long as you have time, do one thing first and then another. Dao Zhen muttered to himself. A meteor in the night sky slowly moved towards the sky, and the light passed by and disappeared in an instant, but it was even more brilliant under the light of the stars.

The next day, the elders of Shushan summoned Dao Zhen, Dao Yan and Sima Linyan in Taiguang Palace, and Ling Feng said: "There is a flying snake in Yongzhou, poisoning the people, it is a big disaster, and now I order the three of you to go to Yongzhou to check this matter quickly." "Dao Zhen and Dao Yan often receive orders to go down the mountain, and they know the importance of things. Seeing all the elders gathered, knowing that it was important and not to be sloppy, Sima Linyan was asked to go down the mountain for the first time after being newly promoted, and she was also very excited, and the three of them replied in unison: "Yes." Ling An said to Sima Linyan: "Sima Linyan, this is your first experience, be careful." At the same time, this matter is also an assessment for you to become a disciple in the room, and if you successfully pass it, you will become a disciple in the room. Lin Yan said: "Yes, the disciple knows." Ling Lin also said to his two disciples: "Dao Zhen, Dao Yan, you two still have to protect your junior sister." The two also replied, "Yes." Ling Feng said, "Since there is nothing to do, you should go quickly." ”

After the three of them left, Ling An asked Ling Feng puzzledly: "There are many disciples in Shushan, and many of them have higher cultivation than Sima Linyan, why did you choose her to go?" Leng Feng stroked his beard: "The matter of Zhen Lingzhu, Sima Linyan must follow Dao Zhen Daorun, and don't let her go through the experience, how can she endure this hardship?" Ling Xiao said: "These three children, I don't know if they can find Zhen Lingzhu safely and smoothly." "Regardless of whether they can be found or not, first of all, they must be safe, and we must fully support them, and we must not repeat the previous situation." Ling Feng said meaningfully in the direction where the three of them disappeared.

Without saying anything all the way, the three of them soon came to Yongzhou. As soon as you enter the city gate, you can see that there are many people waiting for treatment lying on both sides of the road, and the city hospital is already full, and those who are waiting for a second treatment come outside to treat the person who has been bitten. The three of them walked to the side of the street, and Dao Zhen walked over and asked an old man who was resting: "Old man, what is the matter with the snake demon harming people recently?" The old man saw the costumes of the three and replied, "You want to get rid of the snake demon?" "Is the situation serious?" asked Dao Zhen. "Yes, the Flying Snake often attacks people passing by at the North Gate and the East Gate, and now we don't dare to go from this side. "When those who were resting heard that a disciple from the sect was coming, they all gathered around. "So, the Flying Serpent often appears at the East and North Gates?" "Yes. A young man replied for the old man. "How did the Flying Snake attack?" asked Dao Zhen. "The flying snake sprayed poisonous mist on the people who passed by, and the people who encountered this situation were bound to die, and there were also those who were bitten by the snake, and those who survived now were bitten. ”

Dao Zhen said: "Thank you, we know. Then he said to Dao Yan and Sima Linyan, "Let's go." The three of them were about to leave, when a young man came out of the infirmary and stopped them: "Righteous man, stay!" The three looked at him suspiciously. He took out three packets of realgar from his arms: "Regardless of whether the snake is a demon or not, after all, there is a fear of realgar." If you put it on your sword if necessary, it might do a little trick. The hearts of the three of them warmed, knowing that they couldn't paint anything on the sword, but they couldn't shirk the kindness of the people of Yongzhou and accepted it.
