The sun has set, and the cold wind has not stopped.

Huang Donglai stood next to the dead tree where he met Zhao Achun, looking around, but he couldn't find half of the other party's trace.

He also felt strange: where could a man with his legs broken like that go? Wasn't he being taken by some wild beast?

With this in mind, he lowered his head and looked closely at the ground, and found that ...... There was really a messy trail that slowly stretched into the distance.

Huang Donglai hesitated slightly, then followed the trail and walked in a direction he had never been to before.

This time, another stick of incense time has passed.

When I realized it, a cold moon had quietly swam up the clouds.

The moonlight was like water, rippling through the mist of the mountains, and also illuminating the potholed marshes and shadowy barren forests.

This scenery can be described as having a unique flavor, but Huang Dong was anxious when he came here, and he was not in the mood to appreciate these.

As for him, he is not too worried about Zhao Achun's life or death, after all, the other party is just a stranger, and it is normal to have a little compassion for him, but you have to say that he cares a lot...... This is illogical, and Brother Huang is indeed not so benevolent.

The main reason why Huang Donglai was anxious was because he didn't have much physical strength, so he wanted to find the other party as soon as possible, and then go back to the hut to rest as soon as possible.

As for whether the person found is dead or alive, it depends on the will of heaven - it is best to find the one who is alive, and carry you back; in case it is a corpse that is found, Huang Donglai has also considered it, no matter what, I have eaten half of your bread and drank a few mouthfuls of water, and I will not let you expose the corpse to be eaten by wild beasts in the wilderness, so I will collect a corpse for you and bury you on the edge of my thatched house, and I will do my best.

He just had this idea, looked for it, and got lost again......

Now, in Huang Donglai's heart, it was really 10,000 grass and mud horses whistling by.

He said in his heart, "What kind of good person am I?" When I go back to the dead tree and see that the people are gone, I can leave it alone, who cares where you go? Who cares if you are dead or alive? At that time, I went directly back to the thatched hut and lay down, wouldn't it be over? Damn!

If he can't find the living Zhao Achun, only a corpse, then he won't be able to find his way back to the thatched house, and his luggage is still in the house, isn't this unlucky?

So, the more he got lost, the more anxious Huang Donglai became, as if he had a deep friendship with Zhao Achun.

"Zhao Achun-Zhao Achun!" he shouted while looking for it, and the shouts sounded desolate, mainly because he really didn't have much strength, and he couldn't shout.

Finally, after searching like this for nearly an hour, Huang Donglai chose to give up.

At this time, he really couldn't move a single step.

"Ahh

The impotent rage that had exhausted the last of his strength resounded in the sky.

And just when he was about to scold the follow-up half sentence "Zhao Achun, I your ancestors......

Suddenly, the golden light flashed in front of Huang Donglai's eyes, and with bursts of clear laughter, two figures floated out.

"Hahahaha...... All right...... Well, I was right. "One of them, Huang Donglai also knows, is the Miao Yinzi I saw in Lanruo Temple before.

"Hmm...... It is indeed rare to be able to feel so sorry for a person who has never lived his life. And the other person is actually the "Zhao Achun", but at this moment he is no longer dressed as a woodcutter, but in a Taoist robe, and the whole person's bearing has become completely different from Fang Cai.

As soon as Huang Donglai saw these two, he instantly came back to his senses, and he instantly understood that all the abnormalities before were all "tests" for him.

In his heart, he is already dispatching these Taoist priests - he likes to play with people, and his methods are cliché.

But his face pretended to be both innocent and surprised, and he said, "Ah, what's going on?"

Regarding his reaction, Miao Yinzi and the "Zhao Achun" seemed to be very useful, and the smiles on their faces became even greater.

"Donglai, congratulations. That Miao Yinzi immediately smiled and said, "You have passed the entrance test of this sect and are qualified to enter the mountain gate of my Xuanqi Sect." Speaking of this, he gestured to the person beside him, "Oh, by the way, this one, it's not Zhao Achun, he is the 'supervisor' of this sect, and he is also my uncle, the Taoist name Chunchenzi." ”

"Oh oh......" Huang Donglai heard this head, and hurriedly bowed to this person, "Donglai has seen his predecessors." ”

"Get up, don't be so polite. Chun Chenzi's tone at this time is similar to that of the two of them when he was playing a woodcutter before, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was a kind of senior master's demeanor, "Our Daomen, what we pay attention to is a casual and indifferent, especially our Xuanqi Sect, the most unhappy of this set of kneeling and worshipping...... In the future, you just need to be polite, and you don't need to be polite. ”

"Okay. Huang Donglai nodded and continued, "But ...... Senior, it's not that I don't want to get up now, it's that I really don't have energy in my legs, and I can't get up. ”

As soon as these words came out, Tsubaki Chenzi and Miaoyinzi looked at each other and smiled.

Immediately afterwards, Chun Chenzi pulled it into his sleeve, and said while digging: "You are also called a senior, call me Uncle Sheng, and I will give you a good thing as a gift." ”

Huang Donglai thought to himself: As long as the things are in place, don't say a word, just call a hundred times.

"Yes, Uncle Shi. So he didn't bother much, just screaming.

Tsubaki chuckled: "Huh...... The skin is quite thick, not bad. While talking and laughing, he took out a small bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Huang Donglai, "This bottle, called 'Guiyuan Dew', can keep you full of vitality for the next seven days after taking it, even if you don't eat, drink or sleep, you won't be tired at all." ”

Before he could finish his sentence, Huang Donglai had quickly uncorked the bottle and drank all the liquid inside.

The effect of this thing was really immediate, as a wave of warmth rippled in his stomach, Huang Donglai's already sour and weak body was instantly full of strength, and he felt that he could go to run a marathon immediately.

"Uncle Shi, this medicine is too powerful. Huang Dong said and stood up, "Don't the people of our sect usually don't eat, just drink this?"

"You're thinking beautifully. Before Chun Chenzi could reply, Na Miao Yinzi rushed to say, "This is not a crop in the field, you can plant as much as you like; ”

"Oh...... It turned out to be such a precious thing. Huang Donglai nodded, and then he was greeted by a sycophant, "Thank you, Uncle Shi!"

"Okay, since you can move, come with us. Tsubaki Tatsuko said, turned around, and made a "please" gesture to Miaoyinko.

Miao Yinzi also made the same gesture to Tsubaki Chenzi, and then the two turned and walked forward side by side, and Huang Donglai didn't say a word, and immediately stepped to follow.

It's strange to say, when Huang Dong looked in that direction, there was still a continuous shadow of trees, but following these two people, I don't know how the scene changed...... In the blink of an eye, they had walked out of the woods, and not far ahead, a mountain gate appeared.

On one side of the mountain gate, there is a large stone tablet, engraved with the words "Xuanqi Zong".

And behind the side of the stone monument, there is a row of steps, and when I look up, I see that the stone steps extend all the way up the mountain, straight into the sky, and there is no end in sight.

"Come from the east. At this time, Miao Yinzi called Huang Donglai, and without waiting for him to respond, he said directly, "The two of us went up the mountain first, what about you...... You'll have to come up on your own. Speaking of this, he seemed to be worried that Huang Donglai didn't understand that there was another test here, so after a slight pause for half a second, he specially added, "What if you come up...... Just come up, if you can't get up, don't force it, go down the mountain and go northwest, and you can get out of the mountain. ”

"Eh, senior, that's not right, right? When Huang Donglai heard that there was a problem in this, he quickly stopped the other party and asked with a puzzled expression, "Didn't you say it just now...... I have already passed the trial and am I qualified to enter the Xuanqi Sect?

"Heh......" Hearing this, Tsubaki Tatsuko replied before Miaoyinzi, "You don't know about this, right...... Before we get here, we are testing your 'courage', 'perseverance' and 'character'; it is true that those who have passed these three levels are qualified to worship my Xuanqi Sect, but being qualified to enter the Xuanqi Sect does not mean that you have the 'ability' to learn the things of this sect...... You will not know what your aptitude is until you 'walk up this stone staircase'. ”

"Huh, is there still this kind of routine?" Huang Donglai was still spitting out a groove there, and Chun Chenzi and Miao Yinzi both turned around and walked up the stone steps.

These two old ways are like the scum special effects in old movies where the characters gradually fade and disappear, and they slowly disappeared from Huang Donglai's sight.

In the blink of an eye, under the empty mountain gate, only Huang Donglai was left.

He looked up at the endless stone steps, twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "This scene seems familiar...... Isn't it going to be the same as that "there's a hot girl on the roof" game?"
