Chapter 10 Arrival at the Academy
A few days passed in a flash, and the four of them finally walked out of the Prancing Horse Plain and saw the mountains in front of them. Different from the south, it is less beautiful and more majestic. Several main peaks are like five fingers straight into the sky, white clouds like light veil around the mountainside, the mountain is craggy, steep and straight.
"This mountain is so high, we can only be regarded as a small dirt bag compared to here. Yuqing looked surprised.
"This is the unique landform of the Broken Dragon Mountains, and legend has it that in ancient times, evil dragons harmed and disturbed the imperial city. Mankind is facing the catastrophe of annihilation, and there is a peerless strong man with a long sword, fighting with the evil dragon for seven days and seven nights, and finally slashing it under the sword. The body of the evil dragon was divided into several sections, and after a long time, the current mountain range was formed, hence the name Broken Dragon Mountain Range. Qiu Meili told the story, and several people listened leisurely.
"This mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, and the evil dragon is so big?" said Yuqing.
"If it weren't so huge, how could it make waves, but what kind of demeanor is that peerless powerhouse, saving all living beings from fire and water, it should be very famous. Ruan Ruan's eyes looked into the distance, and his emotions were excited.
"His name is Chu Tianxing, and he has disappeared since that battle. Some people say that he was seriously injured and rejuvenated in seclusion, while others say that he flew to the immortal realm and became a great way. Qiu Meili's eyes flashed with adoration.
In order to commemorate him, the royal family set up the Tianxing Academy at the place where the evil dragon was slayed, invited seniors who had made outstanding contributions to the mainland to teach, recruited young people with excellent qualifications in the world, and cultivated talents. ”
Several people listened to the blood boiling, and finally understood the origin of Tianxing Academy, even Yuqing clenched her small fists and secretly made up her mind.
"From this valley, there is Tianxing Academy, and the Broken Dragon Mountain Range encloses a basin with a radius of thousands of miles, all of which are the territory of Tianxing Academy. Qiu Meili sighed.
Several people rode into the valley, which was flanked by steep cliffs, and the passage at the mouth of the valley was a natural and dangerous pass. After walking for more than ten miles, the front suddenly opened up, green and verdant, the aura lingered, and strange flowers and fruits were everywhere. A magnificent mountain gate rises from the ground, as high as a hundred zhang, and there are two big characters of "Tianxing" on it.
The four of them were shocked when they looked up, and they were as small as ants under the door, and the two words of Tianxing in their eyes, if they weighed 10,000 catties, the oppressed people's breathing became short, and they couldn't help but be afraid, so they wanted to bow and worship.
"How many students are here for the entrance exam?" asked a young man at the door.
Ruan Ruan and the four of them stepped forward and saluted, "Exactly." ”
The young man's tone was kind, which made people feel good immediately. "A few people have come from afar, please stay with me first. ”
Enter the mountain gate and go forward for a while, a loft is lined up, the fairy sound is curling, the green bamboo is shady, it is indeed a blessed place for meditation.
The young man smiled: "The attic where no one is here can live, as long as you don't disturb others' rest and don't fight with others, you can do it at will." ”
Ruan Ruan and the others thanked them repeatedly, "I don't know what Brother Tai is called." ”
The young man hugged his fists and said, "Du Xiaobai, a disciple of the outer sect of Tianxing Academy." ”
Yuqing blinked her big eyes and asked, "I wonder if there are any female disciples in the academy?"
Du Xiaobai smiled: "There are a lot of them, but they are all fierce, not as cute as you." ”
Yuqing's face flushed, and she shyly hid behind Ruan Ruan.
Ruan Ruan asked curiously, "Brother Du, I don't know how to screen students for this introductory exam?"
"It is generally divided into three parts, the first is to test the identity, and the net worth is clean before entering the second stage. This is also to prevent the evil demons from infiltrating the academy, in fact, you have already passed. Du Xiaobai smiled.
A few people were secretly surprised, only to hear Du Xiaobai continue: "The mountain gate you passed by just now has such an effect in itself, if it is not my race, the coercion exerted is enough to make its original form exposed." ”
Thinking of the feeling of seeing the mountain gate just now, several people suddenly realized.
"I am at the door to carry out the work of using, and I have specially arranged for you to come here. Du Xiaobai paused, "This place is called Reading Heart Zhai, and it is actually part of the test. ”
"There's a tower here, and it's spread over 10 floors. When you enter the tower, you can hear the rhythm, which is specially arranged by the academy and can arouse people's inner resonance. With each upper layer, the pressure will increase, and those with a firm heart will improve their cultivation and realm, and on the contrary, they will be troubled by the demons in their hearts, and they will go mad at least and go crazy at worst. Du Xiaobai said solemnly.
Ruan Ruan and the four of them listened secretly, this fairy sound was so powerful.
"Those who enter the mountain gate must cultivate their minds and climb the tower here, which is the second stage. ”
Yuqing asked, "What about the three stages?" ”
Du Xiaobai smiled: "You'll know when you pass this level." Remember to do what you can, not forcefully. ”
Ruan Ruan and the others nodded yes, and Du Xiaobai instructed again: "There are still more than two months before the tower is climbed, you can improve a little more here, get ready, and I will go to meet the next batch of students." ”
Du Xiaobai turned around and left, Ruan Ruan and the others chose their own rooms, and they all cultivated separately, even Yuqing became serious, and they didn't look naughty on weekdays.
A month has passed, and many people have come to Yuexinzhai one after another, all of whom are young disciples of various sects. I got the guidance of the usher, and I moved into the attic. There are more than 10,000 attics here, and most of them are occupied.
Ruan Ruan and the others sighed with emotion when they saw this grand occasion, and it seemed that it was not easy to stand out from the crowd and enter the hundred.
The fairy sound that I listen to every day is full of ears, and several people have long been accustomed to it. Ruan Ruan tried to relax her mind and let the rhythm fluctuate her emotions. On the contrary, I felt comfortable all over my body, and the rhythm of the sound was like an aura in the meridians of the body, and the places where I passed were slightly vibrating, and the points that had been blocked in the past had traces of loosening.
Ruan Ruan Ruan informed Yuqing of this method, and Yuqing quickly entered the state. Zhu Zixin couldn't relax at first, and subconsciously resisted the rhythm. Ruan Ruan was carefully guided by the side, and slowly Zhu Zixin also calmed down and gradually got better.
By the end of the day, Qiu Meili had her eyes closed, her body trembled, her fists clenched, her face showing pain, and her heart was constantly struggling.
Ruan Ruan chanted softly beside him: "The light song is drunk and the blue shadow, looking back on the dream has woken up." I don't know what I like in the cup, and the past is unbearable. "It was exactly what Qiu Meili read in the restaurant that day.
Qiu Meili rose and fell from his chest, suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, his breath became much softer, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes and said in a low voice: "Thank you Brother Shi, I am too obsessed in my heart, and I almost lost my mind." ”
Ruan said with a smile: "This rhythm can amplify all kinds of emotions in people's hearts, Qing'er and I have lived in seclusion since childhood, and there are few distractions in our hearts. Brother Qiu is older, has a special identity, and is exposed to a wealth of things, if he can get rid of distracting thoughts, the harvest should be greater. ”
Qiu Meili nodded and said: "In just a short period of time, I have benefited a lot, and the dark injuries left by the impact of the usual practice have also recovered a lot. ”
Ruan Ruan nodded, "This way I will be more sure to climb the Miaoyin Tower in the future." ”
