Chapter Forty-Nine: The Green Maple Tree
Qing Yun looked at the exquisite and luxurious buildings in Qingfeng City, and her eyes were a little straight, compared to the buildings in the outer city, they were simply one in the sky and one in the ground. Even the former Makutoshi of the first family of Falling Mountain Town is far from being able to compare with an ordinary small shop here.
"Is this the inner city of the city? It's not like a small town. Qingyun looked left and right, curiously looking at the surrounding buildings, the strange thing is that although there is a lot of traffic here, there is no hustle and bustle of the city.
"Why is it so quiet along the way?" she looked at Aunt Lan in confusion, her eyes full of pleading. She also glanced at Lin Xuan from time to time, in her heart, this Qingfeng City person should have more knowledge and could answer her doubts.
Aunt Lan pondered for a while, and said cautiously, "Qingfeng City is often haunted by immortal masters, and its strength is not as simple as the so-called "immortal masters" in the town! If people make loud noises, it will affect the cultivation of immortal masters, so few people dare to make loud noises, otherwise it will cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Qing Yun thought about it a little and could almost understand. Cultivating spiritual determination really requires a peaceful environment that cannot be affected by the outside world in the slightest.
"Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a powerful monk who cast a terrifying magic spell that suppressed voices larger than a certain size, so even if he wanted to speak loudly, he couldn't do it. Lin Xuan smiled mysteriously, as if it was unfathomable.
"How is that possible? I don't believe it!" Qingyun said loudly. This action immediately caused passers-by to look back, and her voice was indeed a little louder.
Ye Qing in Qingyun's bag also looked unbelieving, he didn't feel any weird abnormalities in the environment, everything was ordinary.
"Hehe, it's just a legend, and it doesn't work at all now. I don't know if it's true. Lin Xuan coughed lightly and explained slowly. "However, it is true that the people who have been making loud noises and selling have ceased to be conventional, after all, no one dares to provoke a powerful immortal master. ”
"There is some truth to that. Aunt Lan agreed with Lin Xuan's explanation at this time. Qing Yun didn't say anything, as if she had agreed with their statement. Everything is back to moving forward in silence.
"It's getting late, let's hurry up and find a place to stay! Aunt Lan looked at the constantly dim sky and said worriedly.
Everyone nodded, and soon they were settled at an inn not far away. The lights in the hotel are dotted, and in the dimness, they bring in a dreamlike light and shadow. Candle flames always have a special charm.
One night, Qing Yun spent half a dream and half awake in cultivation. Ye Qing was also waiting for the dawn of tomorrow in his cultivation, this was an ordinary life like water, but the real world of mystery was unfolding to them.
The next morning, in Qingfeng City, the Qingfeng Sect began to officially recruit a new batch of disciples. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a sea of people, after all, this is a young generation that gathers many miles from a radius of many miles.
Qing Yun and Lin Xuan are among them, and they are going to participate in this entrance assessment. Although Aunt Lan couldn't participate, she still accompanied them.
The location of the assessment is on the Zongmen Square in the center of the city, and it is also specially opened for the annual Zongmen assessment. The square can accommodate thousands or even tens of thousands of people, but there are only a few places to recruit people, and a special attic has been set up there for various assessment work.
There was still a long time before the start of the assessment, Qing Yun stood on the square, and above the square was the Qingfeng Ancient Tree that covered the sky and the sun, it extended from the Qingfeng Sect, although the height was not high, only a few hundred meters, but its breadth was surprising, and the dragon-like branches overlapped heavily, covering the sky above the Qingfeng Sect.
On the bent branches, you can vaguely see all kinds of deep or shallow scars, which look weird and terrifying. Qing Yun was also surprised when she saw this giant tree up close for the first time. "I can't imagine how it grew to such a terrifying degree. Qing Yun said in amazement.
Lin Xuan looked at this green maple tree in awe and said with a smile, "It has been recorded in the book that this ancient tree has existed for tens of thousands of years, and no one knows its true age. Alas, even powerful monks cannot live for thousands of years, and the Qingfeng Sect has existed for more than 10,000 years, and the reason why there is this sect is also related to this Qingfeng Ancient Tree. ”
"Life is short, it is better for an ancient tree to go through thousands of years, alas, ......" Aunt Lan looked at the ancient tree and sighed faintly, as if she had experienced the vicissitudes of the world in her eyes. She is also a person with a story.
"It's good to be happy, what do you want to do so much, it's already very happy to be able to live happily for a hundred years. Qing Yun looked at Lin Xuan and Aunt Lan, who were emotional, and said indifferently. Her face had a fresh and cheerful smell, and a youthful vigor came to her face.
"You're right, too much emotion is just a waste of time. Lin Xuan shook his head, his eyes revealing a deep gaze, as if he wanted to see through the whole world.
Qingyun waited quietly to participate in the assessment and didn't say much, but she still looked at the sky in the distance and the green maple tree that covered the sky.
The green maple trees sway gently in the wind, and the emerald green maple leaves sparkle in the sunlight, making them appear crystal clear. Ye Qing couldn't help but stretch out a small leaf, each of his leaves could be used as an eye, and it was the most suitable for quiet observation at this time.
"Aura! It's incredible that the green maple tree can actually exude aura. But why does this ancient tree make me feel a little wrong?" Ye Qing pondered while concentrating all his mind to feel the strangeness of this green maple tree, but he didn't find anything, the only thing he could feel was the aura in the green maple leaves.
"Its leaves are in the same state as mine, but it always feels like it's missing something, and it's weird that it can't move. Ye Qing also stopped exploring, he felt that his ability was still very limited, and he couldn't discover the truth about the green maple tree. "The strength is too weak, the understanding is too shallow, there is really no way, anyway, there will be time in the future. ”
Ye Qing retreated the leaves, and did not absorb the aura in the air, but just stayed silently in Qingyun's bag. He didn't want to be discovered, after all, there were too many strong people here. It's not good to really make people realize that they exist.
"Qingfeng Sect, the sect of cultivation must be able to make me strong, I don't believe that I can't find a way to cultivate. Ye Qing waited excitedly, looking forward to the start of the assessment like Qingyun.
