The fine gravel mountain road spreads down from the mountain.

There is a slight frost on the mountain road, and there seems to be a hundred feet of ice on the cliff in the distance.

Exactly: the road is frosty and slippery, and the cliffs are full of ice.

Elder Nangong Yuan walked in front of the mountain road, there was frost on the stone, he walked very steadily, he held his hands behind him, admiring the mountain scenery in the sky: "I am idle and bored left and right, so I will tell you about the origin of Muren Lane." ”

Listening to Elder Nangong Yuan's talk about the ancients, Gu Chao and the other sixty outer disciples, they knew the origin of Muren Lane.

Eight thousand years ago, there were two amazing and brilliant characters, one surnamed Gong Yi and the other surnamed Mo. When he heard this, Gu Chao was stunned, these two surnames are really interesting, and they are somewhat similar to some of the history of the previous life. Gossip back, let's say that this Gong Yi clan and that Mo clan, the talents of these two characters are in the manufacture of all kinds of weapons and puppets. The two of them created all kinds of puppets, and they were not famous at the beginning, but once, one person from the Gongyi Sect fought against a silver-level sect with a considerable number of gold people, and a silver-level sect was half-crippled by this kind of puppet gold people, and it was almost completely wiped out.

Since then, the puppet art has become famous all over the world.

However, both the Gongyi Clan and the Mo Clan are mysterious and unpredictable, and they are not only active in the Great Qi Empire, but in the entire Warring States Continent.

Because these two sects are too famous, there are also people in the Great Qi Empire who study this kind of puppetry, such as the Great Qi Empire's gold-level sect Yulingmen, which has long studied the method of making bronze figures, but has not yet studied the method of making more advanced golden figures.

The Taishan faction itself is a martial arts sect that focuses on sword cultivation and studies swordsmanship, and basically has no touch on puppets. But eight hundred years ago, Tarzan sent a senior named Nishimuko, who was not interested in swordsmanship, but was quite interested in making puppets. It's a pity that the Taishan faction basically doesn't have any information about the puppet, although this Ximuzi predecessor is extremely talented, but the talent is not too high, so in the end he can only create a weakened version of the wooden man, that is, the wooden man lane placed at the mountain gate of the Taishan faction.

However, don't think that the recruitment of outer disciples at that time was Muren Lane.

Actually, that's just part of Woodman Alley.

There are as many as eighty entrances to the real wooden man alley, and then it gets narrower and narrower, narrower and narrower, and finally converges into one. At that time, when the outer disciples recruited for the examination, they only used a small part of Muren Alley, and even the utilization rate of one percent was useless. And this time, the year-end high school entrance examination will really make use of Muren Lane.

Elder Nangong Yuan said while chatting: "And this time, I will also explain to you the rules of the high school entrance examination at the end of the next year. There are a total of 80 entrances to this wooden alley, and you can freely choose one to enter, and then the eighty wooden alleys will quickly shrink into forty after forty interchanges, forty wooden alleys will shrink into twenty after twenty interchanges, twenty will shrink into ten through ten intersections, and finally ten wooden alleys will converge into one, the first five people to reach the end will be rewarded, and the latest five will be punished to a certain extent. At the intersection of Woodman Alley and Woodman Alley, you may encounter other people, and you are free to choose whether to fight or join forces. ”

"Of course, there are some people who are lucky enough to bump into the intersection where there is no one else, after all, out of eighty passages, sixty-one people enter, nineteen are empty. ”

Elder Nangong Yuan explained the details in detail.

In fact, there is quite an element of luck in this.

If you're lucky, you can join forces to fight when you meet a friend.

The second most fortunate is that there is no one else at the intersection.

Quite unlucky, I ran into the enemy, and I had to fight.

The worst luck was when I met Murong Ying, Fang Yin, Zhang Tao, and Lin Yuan, which was really a tragedy.

Of course, luck is important and strength is also important, if you don't have strength, it's always in vain.

Like Murong Ying, no matter what luck he has, no matter who he meets, he can guarantee his victory, this is absolute strength overpowering.

Gu Chao meditated on the rules in his heart, such rules, in fact, there is nothing to do, it still depends on strength, fortunately, he now has considerable strength, and these seven months of practice have not been wasted.

Not long after Nangong Yuan introduced the rules, he finally arrived at the wooden man alley in front of the mountain gate, at this time the bunker here had long been moved, and it was no longer a gate of the wooden man alley in front of everyone, there were as many as eighty such gates, each door was two zhang wide, some were in high places, and some were in low places.

I saw eighty gates at once, but it was quite shocking.

Door, door, door, door, door, door, door, at a glance, all of them are doors, and the feeling of door to door is shocking to visual.

The sixty-one outer disciples were all a little shocked by this kind of door for a moment, and it seemed that the feeling of the ocean of the door was shocked.

Elder Nangong Yuan has seen it many times, so he is not surprised: "Then now, the high school entrance examination at the end of the year begins, and you each choose a door to enter." ”

Murong Ying took the lead in picking a middle door to enter, he was the center of everyone, so he had to pick the middle door.

Seeing that Murong Ying entered so quickly, the other teenagers and girls were also a little anxious, after all, now that the year-end high school entrance examination has begun, everyone is rushing for time, the more they enter, the better, and they have picked a door to enter at the moment, this kind of selection door is completely random, not that your door is close to each other, so there is actually nothing to pick.

Gao Ren, Luo Tao and Gu Chao smiled at each other, and they all saw each other's expressions of encouragement.

......

Then, Gu Chao picked a door and went in.

The wooden man lane in front of you is one and a half zhang wide, I don't know how long it is, there is no wooden man in the range of two zhang long before entering the wooden man lane, but two zhang away from the gate, there are many wooden people.

The wooden figures were basically about six feet tall, and their bodies were made of a strange mahogany, quite delicate, with elbows, joints, arms, torsos, and legs that were roughly similar to those of humans, and their heads were square without ears and noses, and only a pair of eyes shining with a faint blue light.

It's really a familiar scene, Gu Chao has a little emotion, I still remember that when the outer disciples of the Taishan faction were assessed, he couldn't deal with a wooden man at all, and he was extremely embarrassed, and finally used his observation and wisdom, and finally passed the assessment of the wooden man lane with great difficulty and danger, and successfully became the outer disciple of the Taishan faction.

In the blink of an eye, seven months have passed, and it's really fast, time flies.

A wooden man immediately attacked Gu Chao, and Gu Chao pulled out the sheath with a red copper long knife in his hand, and blocked it towards the wooden man. After blocking this blow, Gu Chao immediately began to counterattack, Gu Chao did not use any fixed moves, but just randomly struck the first knife and slashed directly into the neck of the wooden man.

Immediately, the second knife came out again, and the second knife slashed at the wooden man's neck casually and accurately, the same as the first wound.

Another staggered step and a move in shape, the third knife shot.

Three swords struck at the same position, boom, the head of this wooden man was immediately cut off, and the wooden figure lost its mobility.

Gu Chao's current strength, it is easy to hit the same position with three knives in a row to solve a wooden man, I think at the beginning, Gu Chao was miserable by this wooden man, at that time Gu Chao was the strength of the second layer of the acquired realm, how could he not defeat a wooden man, but now he can easily defeat a wooden man.

This is the result of these seven months of practice!

After the comparison with the wooden man, Gu Chao understood that he had become stronger, and he had really become stronger!

Gu Chao pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, and his self-confidence was better than before. This time, in the year-end high school entrance examination, I must get a good record.

Young people, who does not have a pride in their hearts!

Gu Chao also has!

Heaven and earth, who else can I be!

Above the clouds, at the top of the sky, that position is waiting for you!
