Chapter 40: Between Life and Death
All the registered disciples were shocked when they saw Shi Yu being pulled out of the crowd by the hall master, all of them were stunned, but they pretended to be calm, and they were all guessing what the hall master's intentions were.
When Shi Yu was thrown back into the team, everyone understood the intention of the hall master, and some people even laughed sarcastically and contemptuously, thinking that being selected by the hall master was a special value for Shi Yu.
Aren't some high-ranking elders like to accept some people with good qualifications as disciples?
Being able to be accepted as a disciple by the elders is everyone's dream, once selected by the elders, then his status in the Dao Sect is not a registered disciple, comparable to the outer disciples, and even higher than the outer disciples, after all, the Ziwei Dao Leader is the master of a hall, and those who work under her are all outer disciples, but not everyone can be her disciples.
Shi Yu was the closest person to Elder Ziwei, and everyone was speculating whether this kid would be favored by the elders, but in the end they heard the hall master's words: The qualifications are a little worse, and it is difficult to make a big conclusion.
These registered disciples, who were still a little jealous, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about it, they are also registered disciples, what is so special about you that the elders accept you as a disciple?
Shi Yu stood motionless, he settled his mind before he recovered, it was not pleasant to be thrown around like this, but he didn't dare to have any complaints, Zhang Kang's words sounded in his ears: We are just small people.
In front of him was not an old and frail old woman, but an elder of the outer sect of the Dao Sect with high mana, and from her arrogant withdrawal of herself, she already knew that she was used to treating the named disciples like this, if there was one more complaint, I am afraid that it would be regarded as disrespectful to the hall master, and punishment would be inevitable.
However, the reason for Shiyu's displeasure was not that she was so ravaged, but the last thing she said: poor qualifications and difficulty in becoming a big thing.
Shi Yu didn't believe it, he didn't believe that his qualifications were poor, and he didn't believe that he was difficult to become a great weapon, this way, he was displaced, and finally he could barely settle down in the Taoist sect, the reason why he could endure loneliness and loneliness, and concentrate on cultivation was to believe in the master, the master said that he would help himself sit on the altar and become a more powerful existence than an immortal, how could it be difficult to become a great weapon.
Shi Yu was indignant in his heart, this sentence was so vicious, it made all his efforts come to naught with an understatement, and together with the path of immortality he wanted to take, his faith was shaken, but he was powerless to resist.
If you want to follow the path of immortality, you must first surpass the immortals, or even the gods, but now, an outer sect elder has vetoed him, is the path he is taking?
Could it be that the master has lost his eyes, I am an ordinary man, but I want to enter the fairy world and embark on an unknown road.
Can I still go home? Master, where are you? I need you to answer my questions.
Countless questions lingered in Shi Yu's heart.
"Bai Lang, take you little junior disciples back to practice. Elder Ziwei said, turning his back to them.
Bai Lang nodded yes, as a boy under the seat of Elder Ziwei, Bai Lang needs to deal with the supreme leader of the Baicao Hall, the hall master, from time to time, and sometimes even needs to guess the meaning of the hall master's words.
After a long time, Bai Lang naturally learned some "mind reading techniques", which were used to guess the mind of the hall master, so that he could meet his intentions and slap the horse, which was extremely helpful for him to consolidate his position.
When the hall master turned his back to the others, it was as if to say, "I have no interest in these registered disciples at all, and I should take them back."
In fact, he was quite surprised by the hall master's actions, as a group of disciples who entered the hall very early, he knew that the hall master's actions just now were not to make things difficult for a registered disciple who had no power to fight back, but to detect Shi Yu's qualifications, if the qualifications were excellent or not bad, then it was possible to be accepted by the hall master as a disciple, but it was obvious that Shi Yu did not pass this test.
However, this was enough to surprise Bai Lang, because for a long time, this rare female elder from the outer sect of the Dao Sect was known for her harsh conditions for accepting disciples, and the other elders generally had one or two disciples who entered the room to follow him, and the disciples who entered the room for one term would accept the next one.
But this female elder is different, now there is no disciple in the house, although he and his younger brother Bai Ziqing are accepted as children, but the child is not a disciple after all, the child is just the right and left hand to help her deal with the affairs of the hall, and the disciple who enters the room can be passed on by her and supported by her, even if it is an inner disciple, he has to give three points of thin noodles, because a disciple who is accepted as a disciple by the outer door can generally enter the inner door and become the pet of the entire Taoist sect, and can also get some precious cultivation pills.
But it's a pity that Elder Ziwei has always been extra cautious about accepting his own registered disciples, and the acceptance of disciples by the Outer Sect Elders is an unavoidable thing for all the Outer Disciples, including the Registered Disciples, the requirements of the elders are more stringent, and Elder Ziwei is even more stringent, this kind of detection, he Bai Lang has also enjoyed, but unfortunately, he was not selected.
The hall master made a move on Shi Yu, which also made Bai Lang look at Shi Yu with a smile, you must know that when the hall master tried to test him, he was already an outer disciple, and it was the first time that a named disciple was detected by the hall master.
The registered disciples followed Bai Lang's appearance, bowed their waists, and slowly withdrew from the attic, although the hall master didn't even look at them
Shi Yu's doubts did not subside, which made him feel very lost.
Master, master, where are you, can you come out and answer my questions?
Shi Yu shouted in his heart, everything now, no matter whether confused or confused, as long as the master comes out and says a few words, everything can be solved, but it is a pity that the thousands of shouts in his heart cannot be heard by the master.
Shi Yu believes that there must be a reason for the master to choose himself, even if his qualifications are not good, there is a solution.
But why did the master have no contact with me after I entered the fairy world, he said that he wanted to be secret, but he didn't help me, and he didn't even say a word to me, what was his intention?
The old doubts have just been dispelled, and new doubts have arisen, Shi Yu is thinking while walking, but he has no clue, he is like a chess piece, and he doesn't know who controls his fate.
Because he was too engrossed in thinking, Shi Yu accidentally kicked a half-exposed stone and mixed it lightly, which also pulled his thoughts back to reality.
Well, since you can't think of the result, it's better to take one step at a time, cultivate well in this Dao sect first, improve your strength, and one day, maybe find a way to the human world and go home.
Shi Yu is no longer confused, celibate in the fairy world, everything can only rely on himself, it was so before, and it is the same now, the only difference is that he has made up his mind, as soon as he has the opportunity, he will go back, return to his relatives, although immortality is tempting, but as long as there are relatives with him, it is enough to live for a hundred years.
With a sigh of relief, Shiyu feels much smoother, the world is still clear, everything is still harmonious, and the only thing that has changed dramatically is just his own state of mind.
If you are in a difficult mood, you will not be able to understand everything, and if you are in a smooth mood, you will have no teacher.
The registered disciples who returned to the Spirit Gathering Array were still greedily absorbing spiritual energy, filling the emptiness of the dantian.
In the next few days, the days went back and forth as usual, except for Tuna, every day was to go to the forest to carry out tasks, although there were not many demon beasts in the forest that had eaten the elixir for them to expel them, but it was still the same every day.
However, Shi Yu found that the mountain forest under the jurisdiction of the Dao Sect for collecting immortal medicine was too large to estimate, every time they went, it was not the place they had last time, and the demon beasts they raised were not a kind of Xuantie Beast, and there were other demons with enough power to deter ordinary demon beasts, so as to minimize the consumption of immortal medicine by demon beasts, so that they could collect more when collecting immortal medicine.
One morning, Shi Yu and the others went out as usual, following the outer disciples on a mission, and when they passed the stone bridge connecting Pixia Mountain and Caotang Mountain, they suddenly had a bold idea.
He looked at the thin clouds that were hovering between the two mountains, and the clouds and mist were half-hidden to see the woods at the bottom of the mountains, and on the cliffs of the two mountains, many trees growing horizontally were also full of vitality and greenery.
If I jump off this stone bridge, I will definitely die, if I jump, I wonder if the master will suddenly cast a spell to rescue?
Shi Yu still believed that the master would not abandon him, and the master had put an eye on his forehead, although he still didn't know what this eye was for, and even how to open it, but he believed that the master had his own arrangements in the dark.
This eye helped him on the day he participated in the recruitment of registered disciples, which shows that the master did not abandon him, and the master will not deliberately entrust him.
Perhaps, the master is watching all this from the sidelines, and only when he has to lend a helping hand in his extreme situation, the master will help him.
This kind of speculation makes perfect sense, because the exit of the master's big array can be moved, and he has already seen it, maybe the master has already moved it to the immortal realm, but he just doesn't want to show up.
If my guess is true, then it is not impossible to force the master to show up, just jump off this stone bridge, and before he is about to smash to the ground and fall to pieces, the master will definitely make a move and include him in the big array of Huaguo Mountain.
Finding a way to break the deadlock made Shi Yu excited, and he felt the urge to jump down.
But in the end, he still restrained this thought, first, there are outer disciples in front, and it is very likely that they will be rescued by them before landing, and the master will not make a move, and second, if they don't save it, and what he guessed is wrong, the master is not in the fairy world at all, and he doesn't know about him at all, and in the end there is only one way to die, he was smashed in half, his body was in a different place, and he landed from such a high place, and it was impossible to survive.
Shi Yu didn't want to die yet, he didn't need to take this kind of risk, so in the end, after thinking about it again, he chose to find other ways, life and death are big, life is hope, it is important to keep this little life, and don't take risks until the last resort.
Maybe it won't be long before another approach comes to mind.
