Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Water Bucket (I)
On the fifth floor of the Amazing Immortal Pavilion, there is no high platform seat, and there is no four-wall screen, as a whole, it seems to be an open-air pavilion, and the white curtains are hung around, and the breeze hits, blowing the curtains and shaking like ripples.
Dumb looked around, there were not many people on the fifth floor, there were three or five people kneeling on the left and right, and there were all kinds of vegetables, fruits, meat, food and wine on the table in front of him.
Directly opposite him, there was also a curtain, and a graceful figure could be faintly seen in the curtain, sitting in a precarious position.
Dumb secretly said in his heart, the one in the curtain should be the big man who was dressed in Qingshan County.
Dumb was thinking about it, Zhao Jushi had already taken a step forward, bowed to the people in the curtain tent and said, "Back to Your Highness, this Qingshan Immortal Dao Conference is full of talents, and a total of four people stand out. ”
"It is difficult for the officials to decide, and I ask His Highness to decide. ”
"There is Lao Zhao Xuezheng, and he will retreat to the side to rest first. A woman's voice came from the curtain.
Its sound is like a pearl and jade impact, clear and melodious, and it is very good.
The woman spoke slowly, and said to Dumb and other young people, "You are all handsome for a while, and you will also be the pillar of the royal court in the future, but there is only one leader, and there is only one copy of the overhauled codex, so you still have to decide the level." ”
Xiao Chuhe and Ma Youlian heard that the reward was really a codex for overhaul, and their eyes were shining.
The codex of the overhaul has a generation of overhaul's understanding and perception of the Great Dao, if you can get it, you can avoid many detours on the road of cultivation.
If you are lucky enough to be able to gain some insight from this, so as to realize your own way, you will have a great possibility of becoming a generation of great monks in the future, and you will be able to travel freely in the world.
There are thousands of cultivators in the world, but there are very few who can eventually become a generation of great cultivators, and this opportunity must not be missed.
Compared with the excitement of Xiao Chuhe and Ma Youlian, the young man surnamed Jiang seemed to be lacking in interest in this, but his eyes were always on Dumb's body, and his interest in Dumb obviously exceeded the overhauled codex.
Dumb went down the mountain this time, naturally in order to conduct an immortal test, and then based on the court, so as to help the master.
But at the same time, it is also increasing knowledge, looking for opportunities, breaking through the realm, and realizing its own way.
This overhaul codex was also extremely important to him, and he was bound to obtain it.
"We will do our best. ”
After the woman's voice fell, the four of them answered almost simultaneously.
Behind the curtain, the woman glanced at the four of them, but stayed on the young man surnamed Jiang for a few more moments, and then looked at the people who were sitting again, "Ladies and gentlemen, what are the good topics?"
Everyone in the audience exchanged their heads for a while, and a man with a bearded face and murderous aura stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, if you cultivate immortals in our army, you will want to split demons and slay demons. ”
The woman in the curtain heard the words but said, "The general is heroic, and the title is enough to show the heroic blood of my royal court soldiers, but this immortal road conference is mainly for preaching and discernment, not to mention that the immortal examination is imminent, if there is blood at this time, it is unlucky." ”
Although his proposal was rejected, the woman's praise made the bearded general look excited, and he returned to his seat with his tall chest.
"My Excellency, what else do you have to offer?"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Zhao Jushi said, "The lowly level is only shallow in learning, so it is better for His Highness to come up with the topic himself." ”
In the curtain, the corner of the woman's mouth smiled slightly, "Zhao Xuezheng is too humble, he can be a county of learning, and the name of honesty and justice is a household name, in the field, I am afraid that no one is more suitable for the question than Zhao Xuezheng." ”
"I'm tired of learning to ask another question. ”
"Since His Highness has an order, it is necessary to obey it. ”
Zhao Jushi pondered for a moment, and then said, "In the previous competition, the theory was compared, but this time, according to the meaning of the humble position, a 'water fight' can be conducted." ”
"Water bucket, I don't know what a water bucket is?" someone on the side couldn't help but ask.
The woman in the curtain also raised her interest and asked, "Zhao Xuezheng, please explain." ”
Zhao Jushi said, "It's easy to say, let the four people occupy the four directions, take a basin of water and place it in the center of the four people, let the four people show their means, but they can't use their bodies to touch the water, after a pillar of incense, the last person who wins the water will be the leader of this time, I don't know what you think?"
The bearded general nodded when he heard this, "This is a good idea, and it can be used in our army in the future." ”
The rest of the people also agreed, thinking that this solution was indeed feasible.
The woman in the curtain said, "Okay, then this second one will be a water bucket." ”
The woman made the final decision, and her own subordinates went to fetch a basin of water.
Dumb, the young man surnamed Jiang, Xiao Chuhe, and Ma Youlian occupied the four directions, and the subordinates put the water they took in the center of the four people.
Zhao Jushi walked over and smiled slightly, inserted a pillar of incense, flicked his fingers, a flame lit the incense, a wisp of green smoke went straight up, and the fight began.
The young man surnamed Jiang laughed, "Since it's a water bucket, then I'll win this time." ”
The young man surnamed Jiang took the lead in moving, his fingers pinched the seal, and the blue light flowed through his fingertips, and it was the spiritual rain technique that was performed.
I saw that the basin of clear water was turning into a soaring mist at a speed visible to the naked eye, drifting towards the young man surnamed Jiang.
Seeing this, Xiao Chuhe smiled faintly, not in a hurry, and picked up the red string with his thumb, and a harsh sound suddenly sounded.
The young man surnamed Jiang bore the brunt of the attack, only to feel the irritability in his heart, and the spiritual power was chaotic, and the spiritual rain technique was suddenly broken, and the soaring water mist fell back into the water basin again.
The young man surnamed Jiang was not angry but happy when he saw this, feeling that there was still some restless spiritual power in his body, and said excitedly, "What kind of piano sound is this, it's so interesting." ”
Xiao Chuhe didn't say anything, his fingers gently twisted the white string, and a burst of golden stone burst piano sound suddenly sounded.
Then I saw the basin tremble violently and make a buzzing sound.
The water droplets in the basin jumped violently, one by one, like big beads and small beads, strings like white jade necklaces, and flew towards the direction of the Xiao Chu River.
Seeing that he was about to fly in front of Xiao Chuhe, Ma Youlian in the west had already completed a rune in mid-air.
A cyan streamer flickered around the rune, slowly spinning in mid-air, and she let out a low 'crack'.
The rune suddenly cracked, making a strange sound.
Affected by this, the sound of the piano was chaotic, and the water droplets in the sky suddenly fell.
"Good!" the bearded general couldn't help but cheer.
Zhao Jushi also nodded slightly, "Breaking the sound with the sound, it's not bad." ”
Xiao Chuhe said with a smile, "Senior sister's methods are still so powerful. ”
The girl didn't say a word when she heard the words, and she wrote hard, and in an instant, she had drawn four runes in mid-air, three "crack" symbols, and one "force" symbol.
With a wave of the girl's pen, the power talisman fell to the ground, and then she saw the water flowing all over the ground towards the girl.
The young man surnamed Jiang smiled when he saw this, "It's getting more and more interesting." ”
The next moment, the young man surnamed Jiang once again performed the Spiritual Rain Technique, but this time it was the third layer.
I saw that the layers of water mist on the ground began to rise, but halfway through the rise, a "crack" charm exploded in the mist, and the water mist turned into water droplets and fell down and still flowed towards the girl.
Xiao Chuhe also recovered at this time, the sound of the piano sounded like a storm, the water droplets on the ground splashed wildly, and another crack exploded, and the water droplets fell down one after another, flowing towards the girl.
In this water fight, the girl overwhelmed the two and gained the upper hand.
Seeing that the water was about to flow to the girl, Zhao Jushi, the bearded general, and the woman in the curtain couldn't help but look at Dumb.
If you don't make a move at this time, you won't have a chance.
And almost at the same time, Dumb moved.
The spiritual power around him suddenly surged, tearing his clothes and shaking, his two fingers together, replacing the sword with his hand, and a sword qi burst out in an instant.
