The moonlight is like water, pouring down, covering and flowing water between the green mountains, hazy and beautiful.

Under the hazy moonlight, an endless stream played a smart and comfortable movement, and a young man dressed in coarse linen clothes, with messy hair and a pale face, was now standing on a bare black stone in the center of the stream, looking down at the flowing stream, as if looking for something under the stream, and as if he was looking at it casually.

As time passed, the boy's physical strength seemed to be a little exhausted, and his body began to shake, giving people a shaky feeling.

"Whew...... Comfortable. ”

On the edge of the stream, a handsome man lying on a mahogany chair opened his eyes leisurely, stretched his waist, and then stood up from the chair and looked at the middle of the stream ahead.

Ye Xibai looked at the crumbling Zhuang Jiuqing, Ye Xibai's brows furrowed slightly, and he said coldly, "What are you doing?"

Hearing Ye Xibai's voice, the young man with a pale face was a spirit, and he quickly recovered from the aimless search, turned to look at Ye Xibai, and said in an extremely restrained and nervous voice, "I, I...... I'm looking for a chance. ”

"Huh......" Ye Xibai took a deep breath, shook his head a little speechlessly, and finally spoke, "Then did you find it?"

I have to say that he has been looking for the stream for nearly an hour, but he has not gained the slightest, so to speak, he has not even seen the shadow of chance.

Zhuang Jiuqing's pale face was slightly red, and he raised his hand and touched his head in extreme embarrassment, and said, "No, no...... No. ”

Ye Xibai looked at Zhuang Jiuqing, who was standing on top of the pitch-black boulder, trembling, only to feel a few black lines popping out of his head, and he was speechless for a while.

Ye Xibai took a few steps forward, stood at the edge of the stream, and said indifferently, "Did you really not find it?"

He really looked for it, and he was extremely attentive, but he couldn't find the opportunity that Ye Xibai said.

Zhuang Jiuqing wanted to cry without tears.

"Hey. Ye Xibai sighed lightly and said to himself, "It seems that this opportunity has little to do with you." ”

Zhuang Jiuqing was extremely disappointed, but he was unwilling to give up, or rather, he didn't want to see others disappointed in him, especially Ye Xibai in front of him.

The first person he saw when he opened his eyes.

Gritting his teeth, Zhuang Jiuqing stood up straight, and then saluted Ye Xibai respectfully, and said earnestly, "Jiuqing is stupid, please also ask the Holy Son to make it clear." ”

"That's it, that's it. Ye Xibai stared at Zhuang Jiuqing, who had never gotten up, waved his hand, and said, "Get up." ”

After Zhuang Jiuqing got up, he stared at Ye Xibai expectantly with eyes as bright as lights.

"I'll give you a hint. Ye Xibai put his hands behind his back, his eyes were condensed, and said, "Look at your feet." ”

"Foot?"

Zhuang Jiuqing raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were slightly stunned, he looked down for half a circle, and his heart suddenly beat violently several times.

Suppressing the absurd thoughts in his heart, Zhuang Jiuqing turned his head to look at Ye Xibai and asked tentatively, "You mean...... This pitch-black stone under my feet. Or ......"

Ye Xibai didn't answer positively, but said coldly, "The hint that should be given has been given to you, as for whether you can get the opportunity, it depends on your creation." ”

When the words fell, Ye Xibai didn't care about doubting Zhuang Jiuqing, but lay down on the mahogany chair again, and said in his heart, "Zhuang Jiuqing, Zhuang Jiuqing, I can help you, that's all there is, and the rest can only depend on your own creation." ”

Looking at Ye Xibai, who was extremely lazy, Zhuang Jiuqing took a deep breath and secretly made up his mind, "I will definitely not live up to the expectations of the Holy Son." ”

All verbal promises or promises are so fragile that they are not even as strong as a scroll.

But Zhuang Jiuqing didn't just talk about it, I saw that Zhuang Jiuqing endured the pain all over his body and jumped into the cool stream.

The feeling of coolness spreads from the feet to the body, and in just a moment, the whole body is refreshed.

The originally tired nerves were also soothed a lot at this moment.

The exposed part of the pitch-black stone is not large, just enough to fit a pair of feet. But the underwater part is not small, as big as a firewood cauldron.

Zhuang Jiuqing put his hand into the cool stream and groped under the water, looking for a focus point.

He wanted to uproot the pitch-black boulder and see where the opportunity was.

The idea is very beautiful, but unfortunately, Zhuang Jiuqing searched for a long time, but he did not find a point of focus on the smooth pitch-black stone.

"Anyway, isn't it just a little rock, can't I uproot it?"

Zhuang Jiuqing took a deep breath, and no matter what the focus was, he directly squatted down, raised his hand and pushed hard towards the pitch-black stone.

Charge.

Hard.

The pitch-black stone did not move at all, and Zhuang Jiuqing stumbled directly towards the stream because the surface of the stone was too slippery and the force was too strong.

"Whoa......

The body fell into the water, causing a splash, and Ye Xibai, who closed his eyes and took a nap, was awakened by the sound of the waves.

Looking at Zhuang Jiuqing who got up from the stream, Ye Xibai shook his head, leaned over to the chair again, and muttered, "Why are you so stupid." ”

Zhuang Jiuqing, who got up from the water, glanced at Ye Xibai's direction intentionally or unintentionally, and after seeing that Ye Xibai didn't look at his side, he let out a long breath, "It's good that I wasn't seen." ”

Retracting his gaze, Zhuang Jiuqing began to look at the pitch-black boulder again.

Squatting down again, Zhuang Jiuqing followed the edge of the pitch-black stone and dug downward, trying to remove all the sand, gravel and soil around the black stone, so as to pull the black stone out of the stream.

It seems that because the flow rate of the stream is too fast, and it seems that because the volume of the black stone is too large, Zhuang Jiuqing just dug up some sand and gravel, and when he was about to dig the other side, the sand and gravel dug before washed and buried the gap.

Gu Dong doesn't care about the west, maybe that's the case.

Zhuang Jiuqing did not give up because of this, but straightened up, looked around, and walked towards the shore.

Who said it takes both hands to dig out a black stone? Don't you know, there are tools?

Picking up a stout dead branch under the tree, Zhuang Jiuqing walked towards the center of the stream again, full of confidence.

Where there is a will, there is a way, Zhuang Jiuqing is convinced.

The night gradually deepened, and the original refreshing feeling was taken by a hint of coldness.

A biting cool breeze blew, and Ye Xibai, who was asleep, shook his body and slowly opened his eyes.

"I don't know if that kid got that opportunity. ”

With a muttering in his mouth, Ye Xibai stood up from the chair and looked towards the stream.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, at first glance, the whole person was stunned, "How do you feel, the protagonist's IQ seems to be suppressed." ”

In the moonlight, a young man, clutching a dead wood branch in both hands, half-curled up, squatted in the bone-cold stream, and kept upside down.

Looking at Zhuang Jiuqing, who was trembling and towering, as if he was going to fall at any time, Ye Xibai's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in his heart, "Could it be that this Zhuang Jiuqing is not the protagonist? I have been soaking in the stream for several hours, and I haven't even caught the edge of chance." ”

"Not true. The moment this idea arose in his mind, he was denied by Ye Xibai, "It should be that I changed the fate of the protagonist, if I let the protagonist get the opportunity so quickly and easily, it will make the reader lose the mood to continue reading, right." It must be so. ”

According to some of the novels he has read, Ye Xibai speculates that the protagonist must be made to suffer a little more in order to get the opportunity, after all, only what is obtained between life and death is the most precious and cherished.

The icing on the cake is never as touching people's hearts as charcoal in the snow, and it will never be.

In the cold wind, Ye Xibai's eyes were like water, and he quietly looked at Zhuang Jiuqing who was working hard in front of him, with a calm expression.

A fallen leaf falls with the breeze blowing, flutters, and finally falls on the stream, where it disappears with the water.

Ye Xibai looked at the sky, and then at Zhuang Jiuqing, who had been insisting on it and was constantly busy, shook his head and said coldly, "Have you found an opportunity?"

Hearing Ye Xibai's words, Zhuang Jiuqing was a spirit, and his body, which was already extremely weak, stumbled again and lay forward forward.

Fortunately, Zhuang Jiuqing still had a thick log in his hand to support the ground, so he didn't let his body fall into the icy stream again.

Trembling and turning to look in Ye Xibai's direction, Zhuang Jiuqing licked his pale and dry lips, swallowed his saliva, and said with great shame, "Lord Hui Shengzi, yet, yet, I haven't found it yet." ”

"Serendipity ah, serendipity. Ye Xibai muttered, and then continued, "Since this is the case, then let me remind you one last time, the black stone behind you is what I call chance." ”

"How can it be a black stone. Zhuang Jiuqing looked back at the stone that didn't move at all, his brows furrowed and wrinkled, and he said in his heart, "This black stone is very ordinary." Do you say ......"

Zhuang Jiuqing always thought that the opportunity that Ye Xibai said was in the black stone, or under the stone, but he never thought that this so-called opportunity was this black stone.

The reason why he wanted to get the black stone out was that he wanted to see if there was any chance under the black stone that Ye Xibai said, and if not, he would break the black stone and take a look......

But I never thought that the black stone was solid, no matter whether I pushed, dug, or prying, it was not moving.

Looking at the black stone again, Zhuang Jiuqing's eyes condensed slightly, and he said in his heart, "If this stone is really a magic weapon or a treasure, then I ......"

Thinking in his heart, Zhuang Jiuqing did not hesitate, took out a sharp stone from the cold stream, and slid it towards his hand.

A wound more than an inch long appeared on the palm of his hand, and red blood gushed out like a spring.

Zhuang Jiuqing, who seemed to be unaware of the pain, looked at the blood gushing out, raised his hand with some excitement and some nervousness, and pressed it towards the black stone in front of him.

Looking at Zhuang Jiuqing's movements, Ye Xibai's heart also set off a trace of waves.
