It's December, and it's already cold.

Although the mountain gate station of Haoyang Immortal Sect is shrouded in a large array of mountain protection, it can be like spring all year round, but ...... That doesn't include the outer area where Xu Ke and the others were.

Just like ancient castles, the annexes outside the walls are not protected.

Xu Ke's peripheral area is equivalent to the attachment of the Haoyang Immortal Sect, and they can't enjoy the protection of the mountain protection array at all, nor can they enjoy the benefits of the four seasons like spring.

On the third day of the lunar month, it snowed.

The cold wind was howling, the snow was all over the sky, and it was already very cold.

In fact, cultivators in the early stage of Qi cultivation have not been sublimated in the essence of life, and they are not much different from mortals, and they will be cold.

Fortunately, Xu Ke's cultivation is good, the cultivation of the fourth layer of Qi training, coupled with the fact that the first layer of the Yellow Turban Lux Forging Technique is about to be completed, his physique is strong, the cold and heat are not invasive, and he does not feel much about the change in the weather.

Those cultivators who are still in the early stage of Qi cultivation and lack warm clothes are afraid that they will not be very comfortable.

Of course, freezing to death is still rare.

Unless you are seriously ill or seriously injured, no matter how bad your cultivation is, you still have the ability to drive spiritual power to keep out the cold. It's just that what should be cold will be the same.

Purple larks are also afraid of cold.

After the weather turned colder, the purple lark was not as active as before. Now that it was snowing, it went directly into Xu Ke's clothes, rubbing Xu Ke's body temperature.

"Haha! You're going to find a place. ”

Xu Ke laughed, "Does this count as rubbing oil?" Spirit birds can also be cultivated, and if they cultivate to a high level, they can also transform into shapes. When you transform in the future, will you be embarrassed when you know about this? Belch...... By the way, are you male or female? ”

If it's a male, then won't I suffer?

Just as Xu Ke was teasing the purple lark, there was a sound of footsteps walking in the snow outside.

The distance is still far away, but Xu Ke's "listening to the wind" has been heard very clearly.

The rhythm of this footstep is a bit like Senior Brother Wang who "sells insurance"?

It's so windy and snowy, what is he doing here?

A moment later, Senior Brother Wang came to the door of Xu Ke's house.

"Xu Ke, Senior Brother Xu, open the door quickly. I'm cold! ”

Senior Brother Wang banged on the door and shouted.

"Senior Brother Wang, why are you here?"

Xu Ke got up and opened the door, looked at Senior Brother Wang, who was covered in wind and snow, and asked in surprise.

"Alas! Don't mention it! ”

Senior Brother Wang's face was full of depression, he walked into the door, sat down in the hall, glanced around, and said to Xu Ke: "What about the fire? Didn't you make a fire? ”

"My family is poor and I don't have firewood."

Xu Ke spread his hands, "Keeping out the cold basically depends on shaking, and traveling basically depends on walking, just under this condition, there is no way." ”

In fact, Xu Ke is already cold and hot, and he doesn't feel cold at all. It's just that it's not easy to tell Senior Brother Wang clearly, so you can only talk nonsense.

"Okay, okay, stop!"

Senior Brother Wang waved his hand, "I came this time to take over Fangzheng's task and inform all the disciples of 'Hedongfang' that they will gather in 'Hedongfang City' tomorrow morning and go to Haoyang City in Dafang City of Zongmen to participate in the assessment of Si Nong Palace." ”

"Huh? Wait a minute! Who is Fang? Where is Hedongfang City? ”

Xu Ke was confused, and he couldn't figure out the situation.

"Hedongfang is our area, and Hedongfang City is the market town. These are all names in the sect documents, and no one here usually cares about the name of the place. Leave it alone, it doesn't matter. ”

Senior Brother Wang replied casually, still shivering with cold, "This ghost weather, it's cold to death." In order to earn a few spirit stones, I braved the wind and snow to run from house to house, and now that I think about it, I lost a lot. ”

"Indeed!"

Xu Ke nodded, "It's really hard to run around in the wind and snow." ”

"It's not! I mean, it's less expensive. ”

Senior Brother Wang exercised his skills again, and after driving away the cold, he got up and walked out, "I'm leaving, there are still many people to leave!" ”

With that, Senior Brother Wang walked out of the door and continued to move forward in the wind and snow.

Life is not easy!

Xu Ke looked at Senior Brother Wang's figure walking forward in the snow, and couldn't help but sigh.

Everyone in the world says that cultivating immortals is good, but they don't know that cultivating immortals is also very bitter!

An old monk like Senior Brother Wang, who has been unable to break through in his cultivation for a long time, can only work hard in the early stage of Qi training, and can only struggle at the bottom, which is really hard.

Seeing Senior Brother Wang's situation, Xu Ke's idea of being promoted was even more firm.

Tomorrow we will leave for the Si Nong Palace.

I have made all the preparations, and this time I am bound to win!

-----------------

Early the next morning.

Xu Ke got up to wash, finished breakfast, and changed into the standard Taoist robe of the outer disciples of Haoyang Immortal Sect, which he didn't usually need at all.

In fact, it is a set of dark cyan robes, with a golden red silk thread embroidered with the Great Day Golden Crow pattern, which is not a robe at all, just ordinary clothes.

In the market town, one spirit stone of such clothes can buy ten sets.

Put on the outer disciple's robe, hang up the long sword, put the storage bag into the underground cave, and then closed the entrance of the underground cave with "concrete into stone" for several layers, and after doing this, Xu Ke got up and went out.

It's still snowy outside.

Walking into the wind and snow, the purple lark hidden in the placket of the clothes was so cold that it "chirped" a few times, Xu Ke shook his head helplessly, and as soon as his thoughts moved, the golden light spell was stimulated, and a faint golden light film enveloped the whole body, and the wind and snow could no longer get close.

Anyway, this time he went to the Sinong Hall to participate in the assessment, Xu Ke wanted to be in the limelight, and now he revealed a golden light spell, which was not ostentatious.

After all...... The senior brother walking on the road ahead is also wearing a golden light spell!

It's so windy and snowy, if you don't cast a golden light spell, when you walk to the market town, all your clothes will be soaked with the melting snow on your body.

As you move along the road, more and more people gather on the road ahead.

There are Senior Brother Wang who "sells insurance", Gao Lei, who is a thief, and Tiger Master who mixes society, etc., and the farming disciples scattered everywhere are all gathering in the direction of the market town.

Xu Ke didn't know many people, and there were only a few people he had dealt with, so he just said hello to Senior Brother Wang and others along the way, and went straight to the road.

Of course, in such a strong wind and snow, everyone was not interested in talking, and they were all hurrying away.

Most of the farming disciples in this area are some "senior brothers", but there are not many young disciples like Xu Ke.

These "senior brothers" were very dissatisfied with what kind of assessment they braved the wind and snow to participate in, and they scolded and scolded while walking, which seemed very unserious, which seriously damaged the atmosphere of the sect competition.

When everyone came to the market town, Xu Ke finally knew who was the Fang Zheng of "Hedong Fang".

The so-called Fang Zheng is actually the boss of Baibaozhai, the thin old man who Xu Ke doesn't even know his name.

"The old man's name is Liu Yongtian, we call it Hedongfang here, if you want to seek promotion, remember this, when you go to the Sinong Hall to participate in the assessment, you have to report the calendar, and you need to use these. If you don't want to be promoted, you can leave it alone. ”

After the thin old man said this, he waved his hand, "Let's go!" I still have to walk a hundred miles! ”

So, under the leadership of Fangzheng Liu Yongtian, a group of outer disciples of Hedong Fang marched in the direction of Haoyang City.

A group of people walked on the road sparsely, like a rabble.

Why is this going to participate in the sect competition?

I knew that the farming disciples in this area were very collapsed, but I didn't expect to be able to collapse to this point.

If the real person in charge of the sect saw this, would he be so angry that he vomited blood? Or slap it in the face and kill all these embarrassing things?

Xu Ke couldn't help but shake his head.

The only good news is that there should be no competitors here in Hedongfang.
