The Third Dao Hall Chapter 53 The Mountain of Trials
There are thousands of avenues in the world, and every road can reach the end regardless of whether it is high or low. But after all, the wisdom of the world is limited, and they cannot discover every road, and they only regard the road that their predecessors have taken as the only way to reach the top. However, only a few people think that there is more than one road to the end, so they find other smooth paths.
Dare to break the routine and pursue the unknown, such people have been rare since ancient times, but each of them is an amazing era.
Dong Yu is such a person, creating new runes, which is a completely new path. Although we don't know if this road can be passed, how can we know if we don't go on? The appearance of each rune means the change of the times.
There must always be a pioneer to set foot on this road, he Dong Yu is willing to be the first person, compared to this, the small plans of the demon clan seem insignificant. Dong Yu is already ahead of everyone, and there are few people in this world who can become Taoist friends with him. His vision is no longer limited to this, he is not thinking about the small things in front of him, but about the major reforms that will affect future generations through the ages.
"Sir, with this rune, you can be a saint in the world!" Although Zhou Haoran was a little dull in some things, it didn't mean that he was bad at dealing with people, and when he saw the birth of the new rune, he didn't hesitate to compliment. But it's not a compliment, it should be a fact.
"Haha! A saint still doesn't dare to be, this merit is really insignificant, how dare you call yourself a saint?" Dong Yu said modestly. After saying that, he himself installed the wooden door on the empty frame of the hut.
After everything was completed, Dong Yu looked at the wooden door that did not match the thatched hut in front of him, and felt satisfied. What if it doesn't match? It would be nice if it could be used! He tried several times in front of the wooden door, and was as happy as a child.
"Sir, if there is nothing to do, the disciple will leave first. The assessment over there is still going on, so I have to go over there to sit down. Zhou Haoran bowed and asked.
"Let's go, let's go! Take a good look and see how many good seedlings there are this year. Dong Yu waved his hand, not caring about Zhou Haoran at all. He was studying the wooden door that had just been installed, how could he have time to take care of Zhou Haoran?
Zhou Haoran then retired and left, and disappeared between a few flashes.
In the annual college assessment, there is only one very simple thing, and that is to go up the mountain. But this mountain is not an ordinary mountain, but a mountain of trials specially used for assessment. It's called Ask Mountain.
This mountain has existed here since the establishment of Fangcun Academy, and it is said that it was built by his own hands. Its purpose is to assess disciples, but after so many years, there are few people who can really reach the top. However, two of them became disciples of Mr. Wang, so it is rumored that whoever can climb this mountain will become a disciple of Mr.
But rumors come to say, if you want to become a disciple of Mr., you don't want to climb the so-called mountain of trials at all. Instead, let Mr. look at the right eye, and Mr. thinks you can, then you are his disciple. It doesn't matter if you're unqualified, because everyone is the same in the eyes of Mr., and he has 10,000 ways to make you successful.
Once you become a disciple of Mr., not only will you be backed by one of several huge backers, but you will also be able to be taught by Mr. himself. Even if it's a pig, Mr. can light it up.
But how can a person who has not even climbed the mountain to meet his master become his disciples? Therefore, there is an endless stream of people who come here every year for climbing and trials, but most of them are stuck on the mountainside.
There are three levels in the mountain, the first level tests perseverance, the second level tests wisdom, and the third level tests the heart.
However, the first two levels are okay to say, everyone is the same, but the third level will be different according to everyone's heart, and the content of the assessment will be correspondingly different. So after so many years, only those few people can reach the top.
Therefore, everyone faces different assessments, so there is no point in learning at all, and everyone can only rely on themselves. And for those who did not reach the top, the academy will also collect a part, but it will be taught by other academy teachers. But these places alone have already made those people sharpen their heads and drill into them.
Zhou Haoran came to the top of the mountain, there is a small pavilion standing on the top of the mountain, Zhou Haoran walked to the stone table in the pavilion and sat down, stretched out his hand to brush the table, and suddenly it was like a mirror, reflecting different scenes.
What he saw was the trial situation under the mountain, and what he had to do was to screen out the people who entered the academy according to everyone's performance.
Every year, many disciples are able to enter the academy, and they also fail to reach the top. Because their performance in it has been recognized by the evaluators.
Although this year is not as lively as before, there are still many people stopping at the bottom of the mountain, and some people come every year to see if anyone can make it to the summit this year. Every time a person can reach the top, his name will inevitably be remembered by the world as a conversation after dinner.
But today may be a little different, and there is a person in the Demon Clan's mission who is also coming to challenge this mountain. It's okay to say that if this person reaches the top, it will be a huge blow to the human race. Hearing rumors about this person, the name of genius has been spread for a long time, and there is a great chance to be able to reach the top of the mountain, but this is extremely disadvantageous for the human race.
Because for now, I don't know if there is anyone who can compare with it this year, but I always feel that the world does not have much hope for them. Although the onlookers were angry in their hearts, they were helpless, there were still a few months before the fight, but in the meantime, the people of the demon clan envoy had already defeated all the masters of the rivers and lakes, and they became more and more arrogant, and looked down on the human monks everywhere. However, they have the capital to look down on, and they have made several shots, but they have defeated the strong with the weak, and everyone is speechless. Despite the anger in their hearts, they had to admit their strength
The only thing they pinned on was that the academy disciples would be able to suppress them, but this matter was stopped by Dong Yu. Therefore, the people of the Demon Clan's mission suppressed the Terran so much that they couldn't raise their heads in the land of the Terran.
Therefore, this year, the trial of recruiting disciples has completely become a foil. The ones who really had to suffer were those disciples, who had the opportunity to show their ambitions, but the limelight was all overshadowed by the people of the Demon Clan's mission.
If the people of the demon clan were allowed to walk in front of them on the road to the mountain, even if they entered the academy, their faces would be completely dull. Their only chance was to get ahead of the demon clan and compare him to him. But how difficult is this, since the demon clan can send him here, it must have its own merits.
I saw that the man was walking leisurely up the mountain. Along the way, he was still in the mood to enjoy the scenery, and the appearance of the light clouds and breeze made the human monk want to punch him in the face.
But I have to say that this person has real strength, and he quickly surpassed some disciples and walked ahead of them. And those disciples who were surpassed had a breath of blood in their hearts, and a momentum of not admitting defeat suddenly burst out. But everyone has limits, and it's not like you can make up for it just by saying it. In the end, he still lowered his head unwillingly, couldn't move his feet anymore, and watched him walk in front.
At this time, all the Terran monks were of the same mind, they didn't care who could be accepted by the academy, the only thing they thought about was that they must not let the people of the Demon Clan reach the top.
Once he is allowed to reach the top, the younger generation will not be able to raise their heads.
I saw that the people of the demon clan crossed one disciple after another, and those disciples who were surpassed by him stimulated their blood and fought to catch up. But the gap was too big, and he was annoyed in his heart, so he had to hope that the brother in front of him could suppress him.
Seeing that this first level was almost finished, the man was still like a walk, and there was no pressure on his face. This level may not be very fair to the Terrans, because the physical body of the Demon Race is far stronger than the Terrans, so they have a natural advantage for this level.
Soon after, the demon monk had completed the first level. There weren't many people in front of him anymore, and the man sneered in his heart: "Hmph! The Terran monks are so vulnerable, we can only be sideways, and the Terrans can occupy the central orthodoxy. Why? Sooner or later, this land will be our territory!"
The man suppressed the distractions in his heart and walked forward again, and gradually the road was divided into three. Some people come here and choose a random path and continue to walk. Others are stuck here, not knowing what to choose.
The demon clan didn't think much about it, so he chose the middle path, walked forward without hesitation, and gradually disappeared at the end of the road. There are three questions on each of the three paths, and if you answer them correctly, you can continue to move forward, but this level has stopped many people.
At the end of the road is a stone door with a question on it, and if you answer it correctly, you can enter the door. There are already quite a few disciples here who are meditating here, obviously not knowing the correct answer.
The man stepped forward and saw the problem on the door, and there were only four words: "The arrow does not move"
Seeing the problem, the first reaction in the heart of the demon clan monk was how could he not move, and then after thinking about it carefully, he found that there was something strange about this matter, and the deeper he thought about it, the more he felt that this problem must not be simple. Looking at the Terran disciple who was meditating, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The other disciples looked up at him, and they couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, fortunately, he was also blocked here, if he solved this problem, he and the others would basically lose their faces. No matter how you think about it, there is something wrong with this question, but I can't think of the right answer for a while.
Zhou Haoran watched their every move from the top of the mountain, a rare smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he whispered softly: "It's here again, sure enough, Mr. is worthy of being a sir, wisdom is like a sea! ”
So far, there is not a single person Zhou Haoran can see, and these people who have reached the second level can only be an ordinary disciple of the academy if they die.
"Senior brother, senior brother, are you here to supervise again? How about it? Are there any good seedlings this year?" The voice came from behind Zhou Haoran, and the person who came turned out to be Liang Qiu.
"Third junior brother, I heard that Mr. said that you kicked his door out today, and you are still going to let me repair it?" Zhou Haoran's flat voice did not carry the slightest emotion.
Liang Qiu was shocked when he heard this, and denied it: "No, how is it possible, that door was actually broken by Mr. himself, and I have to blame it." I was not convinced and retorted two sentences, and my husband also asked me to copy the "Rites" and asked me to give it to him after I finished copying it today, and I have only returned from him now. ”
Zhou Haoran looked at him coldly, not believing a word of what he said.
Liang Qiu's cold sweat suddenly fell, and he said with a slurp: "That...... If there's nothing wrong with the senior brother, I'll leave first, and you can take your own time here!" After saying that, he slowly retreated and left the pavilion, and after leaving the pavilion, he immediately turned around and ran wildly, as if there was a monster chasing him behind him.
Zhou Haoran didn't care, anyway, there was an opportunity to clean him up. He still had business to do, although he felt that there was little to surprise him with the disciples of this class. It was he who was still looking forward to it, still looking at them intently in the picture.
Maybe looking at them being able to remember their previous selves, his talent is also not good, compared to the other disciples, he can only be regarded as average. However, under the teaching of Mr., he is a well-deserved elder brother, not only because he was the first to start, but also because he is the strongest.
