Chapter 84: New Disciple Assessment II
The assessment of new disciples is divided into two parts, one is to pass the Hanging Ming Hall and identify the body; The second is to ask the heart stone to understand the heart.
The Hanging Ming Hall is not nearby, it is on the Zongmen Square, connecting the road between the miscellaneous servants and the outer gate.
Zhao Xiaowan and the others didn't come early or late, and they happened to be stuck in the middle of the team.
Therefore, you can just see the true face of Hanging Ming Hall.
It is not true to say that it is Hanging Ming Hall, because it is more like the kind of stone archway built by the people.
It's just more magnificent, and the carving is more delicate and vivid, not only engraved with the blue clouds, the sun and the moon, but also engraved with many rare beasts, as well as many strange and complicated lines.
Not only that, but in the center of the position is hung three simple square mirrors, in the shape of a pin.
Among them, the square mirror has the largest area, twice the size of the other two mirrors, and the perspective is slightly downward, just facing the people in line.
The mirror body is engraved with countless intricate runes, but the mirror surface is blurry, and it can't even shine into the slightest human figure.
For some reason, when she saw this mirror, Zhao Xiaowan thought of a sentence from an ancient civilization book she had read in the interstellar era:
There is a square mirror, four feet wide, five feet nine inches high, there is light on the outside, people come to shine on it, and the shadow is upside down. If you come with your hands and heart, you will see the five organs of the stomach and intestines, and there will be no obstacles.
However, after staring at it for a while, Zhao Xiaowan felt a throbbing pain in his brain, as if his mental power was exhausted, and he hurriedly withdrew his gaze.
The team moved forward at an even speed, and when they reached Zhao Xiaowan, it was only an hour.
Zhao Xiaowan's head was still hurting, and he heard someone say with a solemn face: "Just stand still." β
Before the words fell, Zhao Xiaowan felt a golden floating light envelop her body, and she was in a trance for a moment, and then, the soul body tried to float out of her body uncontrollably.
In her confusion, memories came back to her as she recalled her ugliness when she was injured, and recalled her frolicking with her friends.
Memories go back as if someone had pressed the rewind button.
Until time goes back to her infancy, the force seems to want to go back in time.
For some reason, Zhao Xiaowan, who was caught in the memory, faintly sensed that something was wrong, and she subconsciously broke free from this force, but helplessly, her consciousness was so weak in front of this force that it was vulnerable, like a mayfly compared to a big tree.
Seeing that time traced back to her appearance in her mother's womb still did not stop, the white porcelain bowl seemed to sense the owner's wishes, Zhao Xiaowan only felt a sudden cold in her arms, and a cold thing squeezed into her spiritual sea.
Zhao Xiaowan was shocked, and then the whole person suddenly woke up from his memories.
"Huhu ......" Zhao Xiaowan gasped as if he had experienced a nightmare, and a row of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Seeing that Zhao Xiaowan woke up early, several old men in charge of the assessment were still a little surprised, but it happened that the assessment time had arrived, and the hanging mirror did not show that this person had any special spirits, the age was not fake, the spiritual roots and root bones were average, but their luck was a little higher than others, so they waved their hands and let Zhao Xiaowan pass.
Zhao Xiaowan didn't know if they had seen anything, although there was some doubt in his heart, but he still didn't show it on his face. Seeing that he had passed, he walked very calmly to the other side of the line.
About a few minutes later, Zhao Ping and the others also passed through the Hanging Ming Hall one after another, and Zhao Xiaowan suppressed the mixed thoughts in his heart and stepped forward.
After scanning for a week, they found that Zhao Xiaopang and they were not abnormal, and when asked about Fang Cai's assessment, they only said that they felt that there was light shining on them, and they were warm.
Zhao Xiaowan was suspicious in his heart, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Tian Erya, who was a little pale.
"Sister Erya, are you okay?" She asked tentatively.
Who knew that Tian Erya raised her head, first looked at her blankly for a while, and then seemed to suddenly wake up from a dream, her eyes suddenly shrank, and she stammered, "No...... I'm fine......"
Zhao Xiaowan: "......"
Tian Erya has nothing to do, there is a ghost.
Zhao Xiaowan was very sure that Tian Erya should have the same experience as her.
It's just that Zhao Xiaowan couldn't figure it out, why didn't the others react, but she and Tian Erya reacted so strongly by the mirror?
Do they have anything in common?
Are they all women? It's not like it...... The other girls didn't react......
Zhao Xiaowan was puzzled, and when he saw that everyone else had gone to the second level, he had to gather his mind and go towards the heart stone.
There was no need to queue up this time, and after entering the assessment range, Zhao Xiaowan felt a familiar feeling of dizziness coming, and when she opened her eyes again, she was already in an antique room.
Zhao Xiaowan was a little puzzled, when he suddenly heard the system in his mind "ding".

[Quest completion reward: Phantom Heart Stone*1.] γ
Zhao Xiaowan looked at the extra task description and looked at the extremely realistic environment around him, a little surprised.
Is this just a fantasy?
She reached out and rubbed against the bed curtain, and could still feel the slightly undulating feel of the delicate embroidery, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
It seems that it not only restores the sense of sight and smell, but also restores the sense of touch.
"It's really interesting......" Zhao Xiaowan muttered in a low voice.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a girl dressed as a mustache ran in in a panic.
"Miss, it's not good! The eldest young master of the Cui family came to the door to withdraw from the marriage! β
Zhao Xiaowan was still thinking about which play this was, and was held by the maid's arm, not only what did the maid grow up with, but her strength was greater than her, and she was dragged up from the bed.
"Miss! Let's go to the flower hall and have a look! Don't stop Young Master Cui from getting married! β
Zhao Xiaowan wanted to explore the neighborhood for a while, but I don't know if she didn't follow the plot, and the plot stagnated. She just got rid of the maid, and after swaying for half a circle, she felt a flower in front of her, and then the next second, the person returned to the boudoir where she had been first.
Ten breaths later, the familiar sound of a door being pushed sounded.
Zhao Xiaowan knew that she couldn't go without the plot, so she hurried before the maid spoke, "Let's go, let's go to the flower hall to have a look." β
The maid was reduced to a scene, and she was still a little sluggish, and she was stunned for two seconds before she reacted, and she was about to step forward and pull Zhao Xiaowan.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xiaowan had expected it, and directly dodged the maid's iron palms.
Zhao Xiaowan said quietly, "I'll go by myself, and you will lead the way in front." β
The maid reacted much faster than before, and when she heard Zhao Xiaowan say this, she nodded her head and led the way in front.
Zhao Xiaowan walked through a lot of courtyards all the way before coming to the flower hall.
Along the way, she lived in the most remote place for an eldest lady.
Zhao Xiaowan doesn't have to think about it to know that there must be something greasy in this!
