Chapter 114: The Ordering Stone
Pushing the door in, a quaint but unusually majestic room appeared in Gu Chen's eyes.
This room looks extraordinarily empty, to say the least, there is a hundred or ten zhang long and wide, on the side facing the door, a large round desk with red is lying quietly, the curved four corners, the carving of strange beasts, all show the identity of the owner.
Next to the desk, there is a large and somewhat outrageous cabinet, the traces of time are engraved on the cabinet, but it still can't hide the vicissitudes of life that originally belonged to him.
When Gu Chen recovered from his shock, he saw the five elders at the end of the room, cross-legged on the bed, still wearing the dazzling red robe, the gilded piping curled around the entire robe, and with the majestic and unsmiling faces of the five elders, there was a strong sense of oppression.
"Five Elders, disciple Gu Chen took the liberty to ask to see him, and he hoped to atone for his sins. When he walked slowly to the bed, Gu Chen stopped, stood upright, and said.
"Oh, Guchen?"
When he heard this name, the fifth elder slowly opened his eyes, but there seemed to be a dazzling light in his plain gaze, as if he wanted to see through the person in front of him.
"What did you come to me for?"
"That's right, the disciple wants to go to the forbidden land of the back mountain to find the Qiluo Transformation Spirit Flower, and I hope that the five elders will allow it and grant the disciple the order stone. ”
Gu Chen respectfully returned, not daring to deceive at all, how could he dare not be cautious and cautious in front of such a powerful elder who could not resist even if he glanced at him.
"Qiluo Transformation Spirit Flower?" The Fifth Elder still had that majestic and cold expression, and said, "Do you know the function of this Qiluo Transformation Spirit Flower, and do you know the price you have to pay if you want to find this flower?"
"Disciple knows!" bowed slightly, Gu Chen said truthfully.
"Oh, why do you insist on going when you know everything?"
"Uh...... Back to the five elders, the disciples wanted to improve their strength as much as possible, so as to have a good performance in the puppet competition. ”
Gu Chen was slightly stunned, the fifth elder's question made him almost blurt out, saying something that shouldn't be said, but fortunately he reacted in time and hurriedly found a reason to prevaricate.
However, he didn't expect that just as his answer landed, the Fifth Elder stared at him with interest, and a strange smile finally appeared on his cheeks, which had been expressionless.
"Good table xiàn...... Haha......"
As soon as he was happy, he didn't say anything more, but his reaction was so that Gu Chen caught some slightly obscure information.
Perhaps, everything that happened was watched by these elders.
"But why did they let their disciples die in vain? Gu Chen said secretly in his heart. There was no change in expression on his face.
"Haha...... Gu Chen, you are very good, you still know what to say and what not to say, at least you have made a lot of progress compared to your table at the freshman ceremony. ”
The fifth elder abruptly mentioned the previous matter, and Gu Chen was also slightly embarrassed.
Getting out of bed lightly, the fifth elder stretched his body fiercely, and then slowly walked to the round desk and sat down, his fingers lightly tapping on the tabletop.
"Kira Spiritual Flower...... Kira Soul Flower ...... Gu Chen, it stands to reason that you are a disciple who was personally given the fourth order of Qigo by me, although your puppet does not look powerful, but I can feel that you have a very strong talent, this talent can even be said that among so many disciples, you are the only disciple that I also admire. ”
"However, you must know that if you lose your life, no matter how high your talent is, it can only go down the drain...... You...... But do you understand what the old man means?"
The sound of tuk tuk percussion lingered in this room for a long time, and just when Gu Chen was also a little out of breath by the sound, the fifth elder suddenly retracted his fingers, looked at Gu Chen fixedly, and said.
"Yes...... The disciple understands, but the disciple has already thought clearly, no matter what the consequences are, he still has to try. ”
This time, Gu Chen did not shy away from looking directly at the eyes of the five elders, and his categorical words actually made the five elders a little stunned.
The four looked at each other, and it was not until the breeze outside gently shook the window that the five elders withdrew their gaze, held the armrests of the chair with both hands, and pondered quietly.
"Senior Brother ......"
Fat Feng tiptoed to Gu Chen's side, lowered his voice as much as he could, and said, "Senior brother, look at it, even the Fifth Elder thinks that place is too dangerous, or you shouldn't go." ”
"Huh...... Senior brother, don't worry, it's okay!"
After a few words of comfort in a simple whisper, Gu Chen didn't speak again, only focusing on the fifth elder who was still pondering.
Syllable!
After a long time, a muffled sound of slapping the table sounded, and the five elders ignored Gu Chen's hopeful gaze, and took out a book from under the desk by themselves, rummaging through the pages.
"Qiluo turns into a spiritual flower, three lives are born, three lives are long, the spirit moves with the air, the meaning and the sky are long, it is the most illusory flower between heaven and earth"
After a while, the five elders looked at the book and read it out word by word.
It's just that when he said this, he stood up abruptly, stared at Gu Chen, and said, "Let's not talk about whether you can survive in the forbidden land anymore, just looking for this Qiluo Spirit Flower is a thousand times more difficult...... Gu Chen...... You've figured it out. ”
Gu Chen's ears hurt with a thunderous shout, but even though he knew that there were all kinds of unknown dangers in that forbidden land, he still nodded his head without hesitation.
"The disciple has thought about it, and asked the five elders to give him the order stone. ”
"Haha...... Good. ”
Seeing Gu Chen's resolute answer, as well as the powerful battle intent that erupted in those blue eyes, Wu Zhang Lao suddenly laughed and said, "Yes, it is worthy of being the little guy who was personally given the fourth order of Qi Dai by the old man." ”
The five old men were obviously in a very good mood at the moment, turned around and came to the cabinet next to them, and after a while, they took out a delicate gilt box from a drawer in the middle.
"Gu Chen, this Ling Shi originally couldn't be handed over to a disciple below the third grade, but you are the giver of the fourth order of Qigo, and you have a firm mind, the old man made an exception to let you enter the forbidden land today. "Put the box on Table Mountain, and the Fifth Elder directly pushed it in front of Gu Chen.
After receiving this extremely delicate box, Gu Chen's heart also churned violently, and even the fingers that had just touched the box trembled slightly.
"Thank you, Fifth Elder, the disciple will never let you down. Gu Chen clenched his fists and said.
However, just as he took the Ling Shi, Fat Feng, who had not spoken, took a step forward violently, with a strong look of anxiety in his eyes.
"That...... That one...... Five...... Fifth Elder, I don't ...... Can you go with Gu Chen?"
Obviously, facing such a high-level academy for the first time, Fat Feng couldn't even speak clearly.
"Huh?" The fifth elder frowned and looked at the fat man who came with Gu Chen, and after a while, there was a deep surprise in his eyes.
"Are you Zhan Lingfeng?The miscellaneous academy disciple who doesn't have puppet power, but has a puppet......? You've also been promoted to the Little Puppet Master?"
As he spoke, the Fifth Elder even stood up suddenly, his surprise even more palpable.
