Chapter Twenty-Five: Five Years Later
Chapter Twenty-Five: Five Years Later
Dugu Bo, who returned to the cave, sat cross-legged on his stone bed, and with one hand, a turquoise jade slip appeared in his hand, which was the "shadow step" given to him by Uncle Feng.
Looking at this jade slip, Dugu Bo fell into silence, and after looking at it thoughtfully, he sighed lightly and shook his head.
Then, he kept this jade slip tightly attached to his own courtyard.
At the same time that he was participating in the study of "Ruyingbu", the matter of his battle with Gu Xi was spread by others.
It is rumored that Dugu Bo, an unknown person with the qualifications of the Iron Ding Law Body, only gathered his strength for half a year, and his strength was able to rank in the top 100 of Qianlong Peak, and Senior Brother Gu Xi, who was still a Tongding qualification, was defeated.
The deeds of the rising star defeating the top 100 disciples are not unheard of in history, but this rising star has been practicing the exercises for too short a time, and he is still a disciple who has successfully gathered qi in only half a year after he is ten years old;
Therefore, this matter spread among the low-level disciples of Qianlong Peak at a very fast speed, but most of the disciples who did not dare to come out on weekdays regarded Dugu Bo as the hero and representative among them, but a bad breath in their hearts came out.
Soon, something even more gratifying came out again; after Gu Xi returned to Qianlong Peak, he was found by Zhangzao to meet him; Feng Zhangzai did not go to Dugu Bo's trouble, but he made Gu Xi think about it for three years and not take a step out of his own cave.
Thinking about it, this Feng Zhangzai also knew that if he continued to let his apprentice go down, he didn't know what big disaster would be created one day, and if he provoked someone, he might lose his own life.
After the incident, many low-level disciples wanted to get acquainted with Dugu Bo, the senior brother, but because in the next three days, Dugu Bo's Luoyu Valley was hanging a thank you card, so these people couldn't even see Dugu Bo's face.
So these disciples gradually dispersed
Five days have passed since Dugu Bo returned to the cave.
On this day, in the north peak of Qianlong Peak, in a small canyon near the summit of the peak.
Here the medicinal fragrance is fragrant, the butterflies and warblers are singing, the sunshine is pleasant, the small canyon with a radius of more than ten acres is also dotted with all kinds of small flowers, and a thatched hut has been established on the left side of a snow-white waterfall in the south of the small canyon.
The deep pool under the waterfall is clear and fishy, and a small stream runs through several medicinal fields towards the outside of the canyon.
In the midst of this paradise-like beauty, on the ridges of the two medicinal fields on the east side of the canyon, there were two immortal cultivators strolling leisurely.
One of them was a boy with a Chinese face and a white robe, and he looked like he was only about ten years old, while the other was a chubby boy of thirteen or fourteen.
"It's called 'Tooth Grass', which grows in the valley and can be harvested and dried in February and August. Its taste is slightly bitter, cold, and non-toxic. Tooth barren grass is the most common herb for refining 'Juding Dan', and it is also very easy to take care of, Dugu only needs to fill it with waterfall water when he comes in the morning. ”
The chubby boy pointed to a purple, oval-leafed, half-foot-tall herb and said to the boy.
This boy is naturally Dugu Bo, today is the sixth of this month, and it is the time for him to report to the medicine garden.
And this young man's name is Ye Zifeng, and he is the senior brother who introduced the new medicine garden disciples, and under his introduction, Dugu Bo has only learned five or six of the more than thirty kinds of medicinal herbs planted in this valley.
Under the understanding, Dugu Bo admired this senior brother's understanding of medicinal herbs, every time Dugu Bo referred to a medicinal herb, this senior brother could tell its name, medicinal properties, and what it was used for.
Soon, Dugu Bo also knew about seven or eight kinds of medicinal herbs such as "Jindiluo", "Suoyang Ye", and "Huazhi Umbrella".
Half an hour later, after Senior Brother Ye handed over a jade slip to Dugu, he also took out a white jade token, and with a flick of his long sleeves, a white rainbow flew out of the white jade token and shot into the air.
After seeing a burst of water ripples in the void outside the valley, this Senior Brother Ye also flew out of a large hole in the magic circle that could accommodate people's bodies.
Looking at the hollow white light mask that had been filled in mid-air, Dugu Bo's right ear jumped slightly, and then he began to water it
In this way, Dugu Bo came to this Medicine Garden Valley for one day a month, and the rest of the time he returned to the cave where the Valley of Falling Darkness was located, taking dozens of "Juding Pills" on his body for half a day to improve his cultivation, and the other half a day to enter the Sumeru Illusion Realm to continue to participate in the illusion trial.
Although the battle between Dugu Bo and Gu Xi became a hot topic in Qianlong Peak for a while, within a few months, people were also attracted by the new topic and gradually left the matter behind.
Dugu Bo also became an ascetic, except for necessary purchases, he almost didn't go anywhere, hung up a thank you card, and stayed in the cave to practice.
And after the battle between Dugu Bo and Gu Xi, naturally no one came to compete with him for the cave mansion, and no one came to trouble him, so he was naturally so happy.
Because of this, in addition to a few people such as Fu Hao, there is also such a number one person as Dugu Bo in their hearts, I am afraid that even Uncle Feng, Min Zhen, Min Huan and others have already forgotten about this son.
There is no time in the mountains, and there is no time for cultivation, so Dugu Bo's days in the Min family have passed in a hurry
On this day, in the cave of the valley, there was a person sitting on the table of the eight immortals in the center of the cave.
On the left hand is a handsome young man of fifteen or sixteen years who is more than six feet tall, dressed in a white robe, and has a Chinese character face, and he is drinking a cup of spiritual tea at the moment and chatting with a ten-year-old woman opposite him, with a butterfly bun on her hair and a pale red floral dress.
This woman has delicate white skin, delicate fingers, ** convex thighs, and an indescribable delicate temperament between her gestures, which is pleasing to the eye.
"According to Senior Sister Wang, the Xiaobi of Qianlong Peak will start after the New Year?" The young man smelled the fragrance in the cup, and asked lightly, he is the owner of this Falling Valley, Dugu Bo, and now he has become a teenager, and his face and demeanor are more similar to those on earth compared to the time on earth.
And the beautiful woman opposite him is Fu Hao's senior sister Wang Wenjing, this daughter, since Dugu Bo showed her extraordinary strength five years ago, she often comes to compete with Fu Hao and Dugu Bo, in fact, she just wants to get to know Dugu Bo.
After a long time, the relationship between the two was closer than that of ordinary low-level disciples.
After listening to Dugu Bo's question, Wang Wenjing took a sip of tea and said: "That's true, the Min family's outer peaks are small competitions once every ten years, and they are nothing more than selecting the most powerful disciples to cultivate;
And the top ten disciples will also have several times or even ten times more every month; the top five disciples will also have the opportunity to choose a medium-grade spiritual weapon; and the top three disciples will have the opportunity to participate in the Heavenly Demon Tower trial in addition to rewarding the cave with the best spiritual energy in the outer peak. ”
After saying these words, Wang Wenjing had a hint of envy.
"Heavenly Demon Tower Trial!Senior Sister, can you explain a thing or two to Senior Brother, I have been to the Min family for so many years, but I have never heard of it?" Dugu Bo asked with a puzzled face.
"Hehe, it's not surprising that my junior brother hasn't heard of the trial of the Heavenly Demon Tower, this Heavenly Demon Tower is a one hundred and eight story tower, and it has been located in the Min family since ancient times, no one knows the origin and function of this tower, and it is difficult for ordinary people to enter it.
But this tower will be opened every few decades, and at this time, only disciples below the Furnace Ding Realm can enter it through the entrance at the bottom of the tower, and disciples who have cultivated above the Furnace Ding Realm will be forbidden to teleport out of the tower when they enter it.
Inside this tower is another world, not only is the aura very strong, but also the genius earth treasures and various spirit beasts are also numerous.
However, this pagoda is extremely dangerous, and every time a low-level disciple enters it, it is already very good that two or three out of ten can survive.
Although this tower is dangerous, it is a great opportunity for us low-level disciples, and many disciples who have been trapped in the Furnace Ding Realm for decades can also have the opportunity to advance to the Furnace Ding Realm through the Heavenly Materials and Earth Treasures inside.
Therefore, every time this tower is opened, it is a great opportunity for the Min family and low-level disciples, but the time when this tower is opened is elusive.
Sometimes it's forty years, sometimes it's more than 100 years, sometimes it's more than ten years, and it will open automatically, and every time it is opened, it's a major event for the Min family. ”
"It turns out that there is such a thing!" Dugu Bo pondered for a moment before he said again: "Because this tower is both an opportunity and a danger, the sect has stipulated that only the top three disciples of each peak can enter it, which can not only preserve most of the strength of the Min family, but also allow those disciples with real skills to get better development."
The Min family considered it like this, but it was well-intentioned. ”
"What the junior brother said is very true, however, for us and others, it is difficult to enter the top ten of the Hidden Dragon Peak, let alone enter the top three, and have a chance to get a ticket to enter the trial of the Heavenly Demon Tower.
Could it be that the junior brother is also interested in the top three positions of this small ratio!" After that, this Senior Sister Wang smiled and looked at Dugu Bo, a somewhat unfathomable junior brother, thoughtfully.
"Haha, the senior sister laughed, the junior brother is not ignorant of this little ability, how dare she get involved in the top three of Xiaobi. Dugu Bo naturally said with a haha.
Immediately, Senior Sister Wang didn't ask deeply, and the two talked about some other things again, and after more than an hour, Wang Wenjing left Dugu Bo's cave mansion and disappeared into a streamer of light in the valley.
Looking at Wang Wenjing's departing figure, Dugu Bo smiled indifferently, and then walked to the ancient pine at the mouth of the valley of Luoyougu, hung up the thank you card, and turned around and entered his cave.
