Chapter 70: The Ring Match Cancelled
After the injuries were completely recovered, He Miaomiao and He Quanling did not delay any longer, and they were careful all the way to enter Qingyun City.
Selling the hunted demon beasts and the sundries in the storage bags of the two monks, in exchange for 1,600 spirit stones, plus their own 100 spirit stones, finally no longer tightened.
They did not stay in Qingyun City, and after changing to the spirit stone, they immediately took a detour out of the city and headed directly towards Pingchuan City.
It was only half a month before the gathering of disciples, and they no longer hunted beasts and collected medicine all the way, but traveled day and night, and finally arrived outside Pingchuan City after ten days.
Under the tall city walls, it was already crowded with monks who had entered the city, lined up in four long lines, and there was no end in sight.
"Eh, Daoyou!" He Miaomiao heard a familiar female voice, and looked forward carefully, only to see a girl of seventeen or eighteen, beckoning to her in front, it was the female cultivator she had inquired about in Gaoling City.
He Miaomiao asked He Quanling to line up in the back, ready to say hello by herself and ask about the situation by the way, the girl saw her coming, and greeted her enthusiastically:
"Fellow Daoist, you're really here! Why don't you leave earlier, look at this team, if you go in, there will definitely be no place to live inside!"
"We were delayed in the store for a while, but we didn't expect so many people to come. Fellow Daoist, did you come by yourself?"
He Miaomiao was a little surprised, this girl's cultivation at the seventh level of qi refining, if she came alone, I am afraid that her strength would far surpass that of the same level.
"Where can I be! I came with three good Taoist friends from Gaoling City. Each of us lined up in a line, and whoever went first would find a place to stay. You're with the guy you just now? It's better for you to line up separately. ”
"Thank you for the reminder. He Miaomiao saw that the progress of the team was very slow, and the monks were densely packed with people who were all in the past, and they would definitely not be able to find a place to live when they entered the city, so they were not in a hurry to go back.
After chatting with the girl for a while, He Miaomiao learned that her name was Bai Muhe, a native of Gaoling City, her parents were both dead, and she followed her aunt who built the foundation to practice near the Mingshan faction.
Two years ago, her aunt was seriously injured by the enemy and later died, leaving her alone in Gaoling City. Later, when he heard that the Heshan faction had accepted disciples, he made up his mind to leave and enter the sect to cultivate.
Most of the people who came here to participate in the gathering of disciples were in the early stage of qi refining, and the number of monks in the middle stage dropped sharply, and there was not one in the late ten. The two men and one woman who walked with Bai Muhe were also in the middle stage of qi refining.
Bai Muhe saw that He Miaomiao was a late-stage monk and knew that there was no competition with him, so he knew everything, and told the news he heard without reservation.
"He Daoyou, this recycler is a little more complicated than I told you before. ”
"Originally, everyone thought that it was nothing more than a ring match, and the two hundred who finally entered the final won. But a few days ago, I learned that the ring competition has been canceled, and we have to divide our cultivation into hunting beasts in the forest, and when the time comes, we will judge the victory or defeat according to the harvest. ”
He Miaomiao was also a little surprised when she heard this.
After all, the ring competition is to the point, this hunting beast is a battle of life and death, not to mention that once you enter the forest, the hunting beast or the hunter, who knows clearly? What kind of calculation did the Heshan faction play?
But no one dared to take the initiative to ask this, anyway, those who came were voluntary, and those who had concerns did not participate, and the Heshan faction would not force them to stay.
"Then Bai Daoyou should be careful with himself. When the time comes, get closer to fellow Taoist friends. ”
He Miaomiao didn't directly express the doubts in her heart, and Bai Muhe did the same, speaking of this, it can be regarded as a wake-up call to each other, and he didn't say anything more when he said it.
He Miaomiao turned around and was about to return to He Quanling, but saw the female cultivator she had rescued before in the crowd.
Seeing her approaching, the nun looked flickering and dodged around, eager to lower her head to the ground, as if she was afraid that she would come forward to find fault.
He Miaomiao snorted secretly, the heart of a villain is the belly of a gentleman, so she is too lazy to care about this kind of person.
The nun seemed to be relieved, and turned to the monk next to her delicately and softly, inquiring about the news of the disciple collection meeting.
He Miaomiao took advantage of the chaos of the crowd and informed He Quanling of what Bai Muhe said, and the two tacitly became vigilant, but they were not so reluctant to retreat.
Although this way of hunting beasts was similar to the usual training of Sanxiu, she still felt that the Heshan faction's move was a little strange.
Bai Muhe said that the acceptance of disciples this time was because of the evil cultivator's revenge, so he would kill in the door. She was easily reminded of He Yanxin, who had slaughtered a large number of low-level monks in the Jade Belt River not long ago.
He Miaomiao couldn't help but recall that back then, it was precisely because Wu Tianlin seriously injured He Yan's heart that she had a chance to escape from the clutches.
At that time, He Zhengchu had a chance to solve it, but his cultivation fell to the Qi refining stage, and he lost nearly half of his essence and blood. Even if He Yan's heart was seriously injured and unconscious, the physical dantian was all built to perfection.
The difference in realm is too great. He didn't even have a magic weapon, and no matter how much he hated it in his heart, he couldn't do anything about it.
In addition, the time was urgent, he just wanted to escape quickly, for fear that He Yan would be half sober and use him as a healing tonic.
He Miaomiao later knew that although she had regrets, she didn't care much, and her heart would always come to the door one day to take revenge, who knew that she would leave such a big scourge!
According to rumors from the outside world, He Yanxin abandoned the red maple forest that had poured a lot of effort into it, and he didn't know where to hide to recuperate.
Once she recovered from the mountain, her murderous nature continued unabated, and her behavior became even more rampant! With her explosive temperament that she had always been afraid of, it was strange that she did not go to the Heshan faction to find fault.
But most of the time she didn't know when she did it, Wu Tianlin had already betrayed the door back then, and she was at ease with Nian Youlan.
The sky was getting darker, and the line behind was getting longer and longer, and the tail was no longer visible.
The monks, who usually wanted to keep a distance of more than ten zhang from each other, were already shoulder to shoulder, looking at each other with their backs.
The movement of the team was very slow, and by night everyone was exhausted, but no one wanted to go out to rest.
Many of the monks had come from far away, and they had been tired for many days, and they yawned at night, and some of them could not support themselves. But everyone forced their eyes to be open, for fear of being squeezed out of their place.
Everyone knows that when you enter the city, there will be no place to live and rest.
But the Heshan faction had already spread the news that if it didn't enter the city by the time, there would no longer be a chance to participate in the competition, so no matter how sleepy it was, it had to be full of strength and move forward half step by step.
It was three days in a row outside the city, and there were only two days left before the start of the competition, and the movement of the team was finally a little faster, and He Miaomiao and He Quanling were already very close to the city gate.
The four foundation building monks guarding the city were very impatient, and sat at the low table urging the juniors who entered the city, asking them to quickly hand over the two spirit stones and squeeze them into the city.
Unable to use divine consciousness here, He Miaomiao could only use his spiritual power to cover his eyes, only to see that the city was already densely packed, and he was afraid that the low-level cultivators of the entire Lingnan Mountain Range had come.
After another half a day, He Miaomiao and He Quanling finally squeezed to the gate of the city, handed over the four spirit stones that had been prepared for a long time, and used their best to drill into the seemingly seamless city.
