On the second day, just at noon, Zhou Qing ate a few steamed buns on the mountain, and then headed for the agreed place. He still wrapped his body tightly in his clothes and wore a mask on his face, so that his appearance would not be seen by the disciples who traded with him.

In the pavilion at the foot of the South Peak, there was a slender young man sitting early, this young man was not the same as Zhou Qing, but he did not hide it at all.

When Zhou Qing walked into the pavilion, Zhou Qing was not sure that it was this person, but this person smiled at Zhou Qing and spoke.

"Brother, don't look at it, it's just down. ”

The young man stood up, Zhou Qing saw his appearance clearly, he looked very handsome, if this person made a name for himself in the rivers and lakes in the future, it is estimated that there will be many rich and noble women who fall in love with him.

"Did you bring what I wanted?"

"Brought!"

Zhou Qing handed over the wrapped purple gold bamboo shoots.

The young man looked at it, then frowned.

"Why are there only five?"

"Bring the fire lingzhi, I'll give you the remaining five!"

Zhou Qing is not stupid, if he just gave him something, and he couldn't take out the fire lingzhi, then wouldn't he run away in vain.

"If there are no five left, you don't want to get the fire lingzhi!"

The young man's eyes flashed with coldness, and after he put away the purple gold bamboo shoots, he was about to walk towards the mountain.

"Wait!"

Zhou Qing grabbed the young man's shoulder with one hand, and the force was so great that it was difficult for him to move an inch.

"Take out the fire lingzhi, I'll give you the remaining five, otherwise don't blame me for being polite!"

Zhou Qing began to suspect this person, but this was not the first time that this young man had traded with someone, and he did not seem flustered at all.

"Fire Lingzhi doesn't have it, give me the remaining five, and I can pay you fifty taels of silver. ”

"You're kidding me?"

Anger appeared on Zhou Qing's face.

"Hmph, junior brother, this sect is not a place to be honest with you, you have to use your brains to live a good life.

Give me the remaining five, and I'll let you go away in peace. ”

The young man sneered, and a hand hidden behind his back faintly began to gather strength. Zhou Qing instantly noticed that he slammed his palm on the young man's chest, and was about to kill the young man.

But the young man suddenly shouted.

"Come on, there are thieves stealing purple gold bamboo shoots!"

When this voice spread, Zhou Qing immediately saw a few senior brothers not far away and ran towards them.

"You!"

Zhou Qing was also angry, but at the moment, he had no chance to search for this young man, so he had to quickly flee towards the grove.

"What people!"

This voice attracted five or six disciples, all of them second-generation disciples, and they walked up to the young man.

"Senior Brother Cha, what's going on?"

Zha Qiaosheng was lying on the ground, and he wanted to speak, but a sweet feeling welled up in his throat, and he couldn't stop coughing up a mouthful of blood.

Zha Qiaosheng was also quite shocked in his heart, he had already seen that Zhou Qing should be a third-generation disciple who had not been in the beginner for a long time, but he didn't expect Zhou Qing to have such a profound martial arts.

"Someone stole the purple gold bamboo shoots, and I just bumped into them, and they actually want to kill me!"

Zha Qiaosheng pointed to the place where Zhou Qing disappeared and said, and several senior brothers didn't pay much attention to Zha Qiaosheng, and immediately ran in the direction where Zhou Qing had fled.

But in fact, Zhou Qing didn't go far at this moment, he hid not far away, and heard the names of those senior brothers to Zha Qiaosheng.

"It's rare to see people with this surname. ”

After Zhou Qing confirmed the identity of this person, he quickly ran towards the lower third courtyard. As for the five purple gold bamboo shoots, they had already been thrown by him in the forest.

When he returned to the lower third courtyard, Zhou Qing was still a little panicked in his heart. This stealing of purple gold bamboo shoots is a big deal, if he is found out by the sect, he will inevitably be expelled from the door, and even his martial arts will be abolished.

"The disciple surnamed Cha is so vicious in his heart. ”

Zhou Qing clenched his fists, this time, he was completely tricked by that Qiao Sheng. From the beginning, he didn't plan to bring Fire Lingzhi over, and if he really knew how to bring it, he wouldn't not cover his face.

What he planned was to take the purple gold bamboo shoots, and then walk away calmly, after all, the purple gold bamboo shoots were stolen by Zhou Qing, and if Zhou Qing exposed him, he would naturally expose himself.

"Damn!"

Zhou Qing slammed his fist into the wall, and if he didn't control the power, the entire wall would be pierced by him.

"Senior Brother Qin, you are ......"

Han Tiesheng just walked out of the room at this time, he was shocked by the momentum of Zhou Qing's punch just now, and his eyes were full of doubts when he looked at Zhou Qing at this moment.

"No, it's okay, it's just that I see your martial arts growing so fast, so I resent my own incompetence. ”

Zhou Qing smiled, and Han Tiesheng also felt that it made sense, after all, there were still a few days before the selection of the three academies. If you are a disciple with some talents, you will have the opportunity to enter the Middle Third Academy or the Upper Third Academy.

And during Zhou Qing's time, his martial arts did not make any progress, and even Zhu Yan was about to surpass him.

Of course, all this is just Zhou Qing hiding.

"Let's go chop wood first, today's work is done, and I'll do a sparring partner for my senior brother." ”

Han Tiesheng said heartily, Zhou Qing nodded, and the two walked towards the bottom of the mountain.

But as soon as they walked out of the gate of the Third Courtyard, there were many senior brothers running towards them.

"Did you see any suspicious people today?"

When Zhou Qing heard this, his heart shook suddenly.

"My brother and I were in the courtyard for a while, and we didn't see any suspicious people. ”

Han Tiesheng looked at these senior brothers inexplicably.

"There is no need to leave the Third Courtyard today, go back to your house. ”

These senior brothers said with serious expressions, and they left in a hurry.

"Search! Search all the lower three courtyards, if anyone has hidden purple gold bamboo shoots, it must be that person who did such a thief!"

A group of senior brothers desperately broke into the rooms of the disciples, regardless of what was placed in the room, anyway, they just lifted the clothes and mattresses in one fell swoop. Almost every corner was scrutinized by them.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing immediately breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he recognized the purple gold bamboo shoots in the woods, otherwise if he was brought back to the lower third courtyard, he would definitely not be able to escape this catastrophe.

In the evening, more than 100 people from the lower three courtyards were all gathered in the hall.

Wu Mojiao, a first-generation disciple, and several second-generation disciples stood in the middle of the crowd, sweeping over all the third-generation disciples.

"Take your clothes off!"

Wu Mojiao said coldly.

The disciples present didn't dare to say much, and all the disciples, including Zhou Qing, took off their clothes. Several second-generation disciples first searched their clothes, and then glanced at many disciples.

"Senior Brother Wu, I didn't find out. ”

Wu Mojiao took a deep breath.

"Ladies and gentlemen, go back to your house, and don't discuss today's affairs. ”

"Yes, senior brother!"

Zhou Qing got dressed, and with Mao Donglai, they returned to the big room together.

"Have you heard today that someone had the audacity to steal the purple gold bamboo shoots in the Eleventh Mountain!

However, this person was discovered by Zha Qiaosheng, a disciple of the Upper Third Academy, and although he injured Zha Qiaosheng, this person also escaped.

I really don't know what this thief thinks, in our Jinzhumen, he dares to be so arrogant. ”

Zhu Yan sat on the bed and discussed with the other two junior disciples.

"What does it have to do with the people who can defeat the upper three courtyards and our lower three courtyards. has the ability, he is definitely a second-generation disciple, how did he find out about us?"

Mao Donglai said angrily.

"It's hard to say, since the door does this, there must be rules in the door. As disciples, we should not care about this kind of thing. ”

Han Tiesheng looked at the boxing score of the three-form boxer, and did not forget to talk to the senior brothers.

"Senior Brother Han is right, the selection will be held in a few days, so you should hone your martial arts. ”

Zhou Qing is also looking at the boxing book, although he has even mastered the Xingyi boxing, he still occasionally watches the three-form boxing. The three-form fist is simple, but the more thoroughly you study it, the more you can improve your Xingyi fist.

At this time, in the Taige Hall of the main peak of the Golden Bamboo Gate, Xu Taiya's face was full of anger, and the disciples of the next generation also looked gloomy.

"Is it just a matter of finding a few purple bamboo shoots from the forest?"

Xu Taiya's eyes were closed, and his voice said indifferently. This anger was gradually suppressed into his heart, and it was not shown in his expression.

"Tell the master, that thief's martial arts are not ordinary, he can injure the outstanding disciples of the upper three courtyards with one palm, and at least it is the top strength among the second generation of disciples.

However, we have checked the second-generation disciples, and those who can have this strength are not in Nanfeng that day. ”

Ke Yan stood up and said to Xu Taiya.

"What about the injuries of the three generations of disciples?"

"It's just a small injury, it seems that the thief's subordinates showed mercy, otherwise my little junior brother will probably be poisoned!"

Ke Yan said in a deep voice.

"Ke Yan, check it carefully, and a few of you, pay more attention to the movement in the door. Now the two demons have not only been involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but have also begun to secretly move against the various major sects in our martial arts.

This matter was claimed to be committed by the people of the Demon Sect.

Otherwise, if the imperial court finds out that this purple golden bamboo shoot has fallen outside, it will definitely hold our Golden Bamboo Sect accountable!"

Xu Taiya said that, he waved his hand at Ke Yan and the other generation of disciples.

"Disciple understands!"

Ke Yan saw Xu Taiya's gesture, said a few words to the junior disciples around him, and left the Taige Palace.

After a while, the second uncle, Gu Xiaoxiao, walked in from the gate of the Taige Palace. She looked at Xu Taiya's expression like this, and naturally knew that something was happening in the door.

"Senior brother, when did it bother you. ”

Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't help asking.

"It's just a small thing, you don't have to worry. ”

"Senior brother is still the same, and he doesn't want to talk about anything to us. ”

Gu Xiaoxiao stood under the main hall, looked at Xu Taiya and was silent, and then said again.

"Half a month later, but it's the day of the Demon Sect's worship of the mountain. The five major sects have already been defeated by their disciples, should we also select a few disciples to fight?"

"I have already arranged this matter, and it is not bad to have a few third-generation disciples in the past two years. Especially Na Cha Qiaosheng, he is indeed a good seedling. ”

Xu Taiya stood up and looked into the distance.

"I asked Ke Yan to teach him martial arts, this time to worship the mountain, then Qiao Sheng will definitely not lose!"
