Chapter 388: Assessment

Chapter 388 Assessment

"There are a lot of rumors about this Devil's Mountain, and as far as I know, in the past hundred years, there have been many teams that have personally explored Devil's Mountain, but almost none of them have managed to come back alive. About twenty years ago, there was a team of 100 people, and two of them managed to come back alive......"

"If it's really going to Devil's Mountain, I think...... As Brother Niu often said, the reward is rich, and you have to have the life to get it......"

......

Listening to the fierce discussions of these big men, Lei Lin became more and more sure in his heart that this "sacred mountain" must be the "sacred mountain" that Hao Shengtian and others had been to in the past!

After confirming, Lei Lin immediately did not hesitate, got up and walked in front of several big men, arched his hand and said, "A few big brothers, the younger brother is very interested in that sacred mountain. I don't know where the City Lord's Mansion summoned Wu Xiu this time?"

When Brother Niu and the others heard this, they looked back, but saw a few young people, and after being stunned, they shook their heads and said:

"Little brother, I'm going to persuade you not to wade into this troubled water...... The reward is huge, but you may not have the life to enjoy it!"

"Yes, little brother, we are not selfish, but kind words to persuade each other. Look at your qi and blood breath, you are just a two-elephant martial artist, such as our strength is much stronger than you, I don't dare to go to death, let alone you. ”

"Little brother, go home. Although the world is difficult now, if you have martial arts, you will make ends meet no matter what, and you will not die of hunger. Don't bother with this idea......"

......

Lei Lin could hear that everyone was kind to persuade him, he only smiled slightly, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you for your kind words and persuasion, big brother." But. The younger brother has some reasons that cannot be said. I really want to go to this sacred mountain. Please show me the way!"

Lei Lin was so resolute that all the big men shook their heads. The big black man named Brother Niu looked at Lei Lin and said, "Since the little brother has made up his mind, I might as well tell you that at noon today, the city lord's mansion will openly recruit." Whether you can be selected or not depends on your personal strength. Good luck, little brother!"

Got the news I wanted. Lei Lin arched his hand and said, "Thank you for your advice!" After speaking, he turned around and left.

Looking at the back of Lei Lin leaving, everyone shook their heads and sighed.

"This little brother's courage is commendable, but it's a pity, the young man just doesn't know the sky......"

"Young people are prone to impulsiveness, and if they don't suffer a little, they won't look back. ”

"It's a pity, this time the suffering is not endless...... It's a life-threatening thing!"

"No matter...... In these years, whether you can live one more day sometimes depends on God's face. Good luck with this kid......"

......

The crowd sighed and talked for a while. Then he began to drink and eat again, not thinking too much. In this precarious day, we can enjoy one more day of happiness......

......

Along the way, I found a few more people to ask for the road, and when Lei Lin successfully arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, in the spacious City Lord's Mansion, a large number of martial cultivators had already gathered in it, and there were crowds of people everywhere, and at a cursory glance, there were at least more than a thousand people!

"There are really a lot of people......

Leylin frowned and muttered in his heart.

At this time, on the square of the City Lord's Mansion, Wu Xiu, who knew each other or simply came together, gathered in groups, talking about something in a whisper, with a little nervousness that could not be concealed.

"Brother Zhang, how are you, how sure are you?"

A young man with thin cheeks rubbed his hands and asked about a thin middle-aged man beside him.

The thin middle-aged man pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile: "What do you say...... This time, I also have the intention of giving it a try, and it is good to be able to pass, but if I can't pass, I will forget it......"

At this time, a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows next to him interjected in agreement: Brother Zhang, this mentality is good!

After a pause, the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows twisted his thick black brows again, and continued in a somewhat heavy tone: "Not to mention that this mission is certainly well paid, but the danger is too great, and it is a question of how much certainty you can come back alive, let's just say now, take a look at it at will, there are not a few masters of the Eight Elephants and the Nine Elephants, whether we can pass or not, it depends on our luck......"

Hearing this, the thin young man also smiled bitterly and said, "What Brother Liu said is also ...... However, my wife was very sick, and the family was also short of food for many days. Therefore, I must pass this assessment! Regardless of whether I can come back alive or not, at least after I pass, I will have half a year's food to feed my family......

The thin middle-aged man and the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows were a little surprised, and they all opened their mouths and said with concern:

"Brother Chong, isn't the eldest mother's illness cured yet? I still have some demon pills, you can take them to treat the eldest mother!"

"Brother Chong, I still have some medicinal herbs there, you can take them home and give them to the eldest lady!"

The thin young man nodded gratefully, arched his hand to the tall and thin Brother Zhang, and the thick eyebrows Brother Liu, and said gratefully: "Thank you, two big brothers! But the two big brothers' families are not rich, and I can't accept things!" After speaking, he bowed deeply.

The eldest brother Zhang and the eldest brother Liu were anxious, and said one after another:

"Oh, brother, now is not the time to talk about this, the eldest mother's illness matters!"

"Yes, brother, I'll borrow the things from you, and when you have enough money, I'll pay them back!"

Chongyang shook his head, a flash of confidence and firmness flashed in his eyes, he clenched his fists violently, and said loudly: "Thank you, two big brothers." However, I am confident that I will pass this test! As long as I pass, the immediate difficulties will be solved!"

Hearing that Chongyang was so resolute, Brother Zhang and Brother Liu could only sigh and shake their heads, except for wishing Chongyang good luck, they didn't say anything more.

Lei Lin stood next to Chongyang and the other three, silently listened to the conversation between the three of them, paid a little more attention to Chongyang's eyes, and sighed in his heart, but also hoped that everything would go well for this very filial young man.

"Everyone is quiet!"

Suddenly, a loud voice sounded, clearly reaching the ears of every martial cultivator present.

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see that on the bluestone square in the city lord's mansion, there was a high platform at the front, and on the high platform stood a middle-aged man wearing a black battle suit with a cold face.

The middle-aged man said in a loud voice: "Welcome to the City Lord's Mansion and participate in this assessment." I have to start by saying that this is a very challenging and dangerous test, and I appreciate the courage and courage you have to come here. Now, let me ask you again, you will lose your life in the assessment at any time! If you want to quit, do it now!"

After the middle-aged man made a loud statement, although there was a slight commotion in the team, and many Wu Xiu's faces were a little bloodless, no one stood up and withdrew.

After all, such an opportunity is rare, although the assessment and subsequent tasks are extremely dangerous, but the rewards are attractive enough, enough for every martial artist present to take a risk!

"Very good! I hope you can all pass the assessment and join the team of my City Lord's Mansion!"

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man paused slightly, and then announced loudly: "Since no one has withdrawn, I won't say much nonsense, let's officially start the assessment now! First of all, everyone line up, in order, one by one, and receive a number plate of their own!"

As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, several black-clothed martial artists immediately stepped forward behind him, all holding a wooden box in their hands, and small black wooden cards were placed in the wooden box.

And the martial artists in the square began to line up, stepped forward one by one, and took their number plates from the wooden box, in an orderly manner.

Leylin followed the group, and after a while, it was his turn. He casually took a small wooden plaque from the wooden box.

Leylin then walked back to the group and looked down at the wooden sign.

I only saw that this wooden card is exquisitely made, carved with delicate and intricate patterns, and a fierce tiger head is carved in the center of the wooden card, and there is a line of numbers "seven hundred and fifteen" under the tiger's head.

Lei Lin nodded quietly, estimating that the numbers on the wooden card were the order of the test.

After all the martial cultivators had received the number plates, the middle-aged man in the black suit shouted: "Now, the holders of numbers from one to one hundred are out of the ranks!"

As soon as the voice fell, a hundred martial artists who participated in the assessment immediately walked out of the team and lined up neatly under the high platform.

The middle-aged man in the black suit nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "Very good! Now, you can come with me!"

As he spoke, the middle-aged man in the black suit took a big stride towards a huge building at the end of the bluestone square.

This huge building is extremely majestic, in the shape of an oval, covering a very large area, and the building is facing the direction of the bluestone square, and there is a gate. In front of the gate, there was a team of guards armed with swords, guarding carefully.

After the middle-aged man in the black battle suit walked over with a hundred martial cultivators, he nodded slightly at the pair of guards, and the team of guards immediately took the initiative to separate, and at the same time activated a winch mechanism.

Boom!

The gate slowly rose, revealing the interior of the building, but it was as black as a huge mouth, like a beast opening its mouth for devouring people's merciless blood.

The middle-aged man in the black battle suit stood at the door, swept over the hundred martial cultivators with an expressionless face, and said loudly: "Now, according to the number plate number, you will automatically form a team of ten people!"

In the midst of the voice, a hundred martial cultivators acted quickly, and after a while, they formed ten squads according to the number plate number.

"Each squad is limited to one stick of incense, and the last member of each squad who can survive is considered to have passed the preliminary assessment. Now, the squad with number plate numbers one to ten will go first!"

With a cold snort from the middle-aged man, the first of the ten squads stepped into the rising gate first.

Thundered!

As the squad entered, the heavy gate crashed down, cutting off the inside from the outside.

Because I couldn't see the scene in the building, for a while, everyone in the square was talking, whispering about what was in the building and what the specific items were being assessed. (To be continued......)
