As night falls, the light of the full moon falls, and the snow shines with stars.

The white moonlight shone through the window on the small hut, and the light slanted on the floor of the house. The diffuse light of the floor faintly illuminated everything in the room, a table and chairs, a small bed, a bookshelf against the wall, and a teenager lying on the bed for a long time.

Zhao An lay on the bed, quietly looking at the night sky through the window. This was Zhao An's first night when he really entered the Northern Han Sect, and Gao Mu's second uncle gave him a position as a low-level deacon of the Northern Han Sect. The usual work of the low-level deacon is to manage the outer disciples of the Northern Han Sect and cooperate with the inner disciples to go out on tasks, but they are also idle.

Zhao An learned that the Northern Han Sect was divided into two parts, the outer gate was mainly some disciples who had just started, and the inner gate was the real Northern Han Sect. After three years of hard practice, if the outer disciples can pass the test of the Northern Han Sect, they can be promoted to inner disciples, and those who fail will be assigned to the peripheral forces of the Northern Han Sect, such as the Northern Han Weapons Sect.

If you want to enter the Ice Moon Cave Heaven, you must be an excellent disciple of the inner gate, and only ten inner disciples will have this honor at a time. Zhao An was only a low-level deacon, and he had no chance to enter the Ice Moon Cave Heaven at all. And if you want to become an inner disciple, you can only cultivate through the outer door.

Although the low-level deacon could not let Zhao An enter the Ice Moon Cave Heaven, Zhao An still agreed. Zhao An believed that as long as he stayed in the Northern Cold Sect, he would have a chance to enter the Ice Moon Cave Heaven.

At present, Zhao An's job is to teach outer disciples who have been cultivating for a year, and their highest martial arts cultivation is only in the Muscle and Bone Realm. The muscular and bone realm belongs to the mortal body realm, which is divided into four realms: skin and flesh, muscles and bones, viscera, and blood marrow.

Looking at the position of the moon in the sky, it was not early, Zhao An pulled the quilt, and then fell asleep quickly, because he was really tired.

The summit of the Ice Moon Peak, the inner gate, the North Cold Cave Heaven.

The summit of the Ice Moon is covered with snow all year round, and the climate is extremely harsh. And through the door of space, entering the cave, you will find that the Beihan Cave is a green woodland, and there are ice-blue palaces standing among the shadows of the trees. The palace in the center of the woodland is the largest, called the Ice Saint Palace, which is the center of the entire Northern Han Sect to deal with various affairs, while the other ice blue palaces are the places where the people in the cave stay, practice, and eat.

The Ice Sacred Palace has a total of five floors, which are the Law Enforcement Hall, the Scripture Pavilion, the Elder Hall, the North Cold Palace, and the Ice Temple. And Gao Mu's second uncle, Gao Zhan, as one of the four elders, naturally spent most of his time in the Hall of Elders on the third floor of the Ice Saint Palace. On the third floor of the Ice Saint Palace, except for the place where the elders of the Northern Han Sect deliberated, the rest of the rooms were allocated by the elders themselves.

Hall of Elders, High Lamp Room.

The furnishings in the room are very neat, and everything seems to be in order, highlighting a sense of ordinariness. The only thing that was special was a wall in the room covered with various kinds of long swords, and at this time, a middle-aged man wearing a six-tailed snow fox blue robe stood in front of the wall.

The middle-aged man has a circle of stubble on his face, although it looks rough, but if you look closely, you will find that this person has a delicate face, so you can guess that this person should be a handsome boy when he was young. This is Gao Mu's second uncle, Gao Zhan, one of the four elders of the Northern Han Sect, the congenital realm triple heaven consummation, and a half-step human immortal.

It was midnight, and it was a good time to meditate and understand the laws of heaven and earth, but Gao Zhan was thinking about something he couldn't figure out at this time: Why did his niece Gao Mu come to the Northern Han Sect to find him?

Gao Mu's reason turned out to be that he wanted to come to the Northern Han Sect to learn art, there was nothing strange about this statement, but Gao Zhan would not easily believe this statement. Not to mention that the Gao family's "Tianba Boxing Sutra" is not inferior to the exercises of the Northern Han Sect's "Drifting Snow Jade Record", and the relationship between the two is not close, why do you want to find him for learning.

For some reason, he didn't want to socialize with his eldest brother anymore, even if it was the Gao family's annual meeting, he rarely went back, and Gao Mu only saw him a few times.

After thinking about it, a hint of crisis flashed in Gao Zhan's mind, could it be that something happened to the eldest brother? It should be impossible, Gao Zhan denied this idea, because although his eldest brother is not very talented in martial arts, he is the master of the Xia Dynasty, and he can barely shape the inner heaven and earth with the help of pills, and advance to the innate realm.

After the countless assumptions in his heart were overturned, Gao Zhan still couldn't think of what Gao Mu thought. Maybe Gao Mu really came to the Northern Han Sect to learn martial arts.

Ice Moon Peak, Outer Gate, Northern Cold Academy.

The Northern Han Academy is the place where the Northern Han Sect cultivates the outer disciples, and it is also the place where the Northern Han Sect selects talented people from among the outer disciples. The Northern Cold Academy has a small building, three martial arts training grounds, and two palaces.

The three martial arts training grounds correspond to the three stages of outer disciples, namely the first-year, two-year, and three-year students. Zhao An teaches first-year students, and these children come from a variety of sources. Some are the children of the people from the peripheral forces of the Northern Cold Sect, while some are the ones who climbed to the top of the Ice Moon Peak step by step.

Bingyue Peak is located on the northern side of Hokuriku Prefecture and has snow all year round. On the martial arts training ground, the children who had just entered the outer gate practiced the Northern Han Sect's forging method "Daxue Boxing Spectrum" on the flat ground under the light snow, while Zhao An and the other three low-level deacons were sitting under the pavilion in the martial arts training ground boiling hot water, ready to make tea. The three low-ranking deacons were surnamed Guo, Chen, and Shan.

Deacon Guo is a young man who is the same age as Zhao An; Deacon Chen is middle-aged and senior, so he is the leader of their annual deacon group; and Deacon Shan is a girl two years younger than Zhao An, who failed in the inner gate selection the year before last.

Deacon Guo is a self-acquaintance, Zhao An reported this morning, and now he is up with Zhao An in the afternoon; Deacon Chen is older, but he is more steady, and when he reports in the morning, he tells Zhao An to see his ability; and Deacon Shan is a woman, probably shy, but he has not communicated with Zhao An much.

The water in the small purple clay pot is boiling!

Deacon Guo got up and added Nanzhou Green Tea to it, and then closed the lid. Deacon Chen pointed to a fourteen-year-old child on the field and asked, "Deacon Zhao, do you see any problems with that child's boxing skills?"

Is this going to examine me? Zhao An looked at the child that Deacon Chen was referring to. It was a girl, with bright eyes, and this was where she was most impressive. followed by fair skin, small nose, and immature pink lips, this kind of face is different from the women Zhao An usually sees, but it is similar to the Japanese girl in the previous life.

The girl was dressed in the white suit of the outer disciples of the Northern Han Sect when they practiced martial arts, and practiced the "Great Snow Boxing Book" with the rhythm of the field. Although the action of one move and one style is standard, it somehow lacks a charm. Other secret realms may not be visible, but this is a piece of cake for Zhao Anke, after all, he is practicing the top-level exercise "Suppressing Evil Dao Sutra".

Zhao An got up and picked up the small purple clay pot and poured a cup of tea for the three deacons and himself. Deacon Guo and Deacon Chen nodded, and Deacon Shan softly said thank you.

Deacon Guo took the teacup and said, "Deacon Chen, there is nothing wrong with this child's boxing skills, and her movements are very standard!"

Zhao An took a sip of tea and asked Deacon Chen: "Deacon Chen, this child's boxing movements are very standard, but he lacks an understanding of the artistic conception of boxing. I'm right!"

Hearing Zhao An's words, Deacon Chen's eyes lit up. Deacon Chen could only feel that this girl was lacking in boxing skills, but he didn't know what it was. Zhao An pointed out in one sentence, and Deacon Chen suddenly became enlightened.

Deacon Chen smiled and said with a smile: "Deacon Zhao is amazing! I didn't expect this to stump you." ”

"So that's it!" Deacon Guo made a voice of sudden realization, and Zhao An's eyes changed slightly. It's not easy for this Zhao An to directly become a low-level deacon.

As soon as the question was over, the conversation between the four came to an end. After all, teaching the children on the martial arts training ground to practice well is the essential work, and the four of them left the pavilion and walked into the martial arts training ground to help correct the children's boxing movements.

Minutes and seconds passed, and the afternoon passed. The sun sets in the west, the full moon rises in the east, and night falls.

After Zhao An finished dinner, he walked back to his hut only to find that he had lost the key. Although with Zhao An's martial arts cultivation, it is not a problem to break into the door or open the window, but as a college student in the 21st century, he can't do such a tasteless thing.

Zhao An followed his travel route during the day today, looking for his key all the way, and finally Zhao An found his key next to the door of the martial arts training ground.

There was silence all around, and just as Zhao An picked up the key and was about to leave, a small voice came from the martial arts training ground. At this time, how could there still be outer disciples in the martial arts training ground?

With a curious attitude, Zhao An gently pushed open the door of the martial arts training ground. Zhao An looked at the playground of the martial arts training ground, and at this time, it was the little girl that Deacon Chen pointed out during the day.

Due to being too involved and Zhao An's push on the door was too quiet, the little girl didn't notice that someone was looking at her, so she was still practicing her boxing skills hard.

"It's almost dawn, why are you still here?" Zhao An shouted to the little girl.

The sudden sound made the little girl's fist instantly out of shape, and one accidentally fell. Zhao Anshi unfolded the sea step, and grabbed the little girl one by one. However, although Zhao An grabbed the little girl, she twisted her foot without falling.

The two came to the small pavilion on the martial arts training ground, the little girl was sitting on the stone bench, Zhao An was half-squatting and took off her stockings, and the little girl's ankles were red and swollen.

Zhao An looked up at the little girl and said, "It's a little serious, I'll use my strength to help you reduce the swelling, don't come to the practice for the past few days, rest for a day." With that, Zhao An injected his strength into the little girl's ankle.

Hearing that Zhao An let herself rest, the little girl's eyes instantly filled with mist, and she said with a crying voice: "Deacon, I can't stop practicing, and the year-end assessment is about to begin." ”

Hearing the crying in the little girl's voice, Zhao An raised his head and said, "Your boxing movements are already very standard, it's okay to waste a few days." ”

The little girl cried and said, "But if I don't take the first place, I won't have the money to help my mother heal." ”

It turns out that this girl wants the first reward in the year-end assessment!
