As the closest town to Xuanqingmen, Mingshan Town is located in the traffic artery, and people come and go all the year round, and it is a famous town in Jinzhou. A large number of passers-by and many monks on the mountain, from time to time there will be people who go down the mountain to drink wine and eat meat, which drives Zhao Niu's prosperous inn business, but his inn is indeed the smallest one in the town, and it is also the cheapest one, it is overcrowded all year round, but it is a pity that the boss is tired of working and the profit is low, and after a long time, he can only do the business of people who have little money.

There are three inns in the town, all of which are the industries of Xuanqingmen, each with its own positioning group, although Zhao Niu also wants to do some business for high-end people, but he can't afford to build a new house and a big decoration because of the strict door rules.

There are also all kinds of commercial shops in the town, such as clothing stores, herb shops, blacksmith shops, pawnshops, curiosities, etc., all of which are quite large. Chen Mu, a country boy, is dazzled when he enters the city, everything is novel, and all the girls are better looking than those in his village.

Zhao Niu arrived at his small inn, settled Chen Mu and Yan Xingyu, and went to take care of the affairs of the store. Yan Xingyu had already regained everyone's delicate reserve, and the atmosphere in the room was slightly awkward. "Chen Mu, I have made up my mind to learn martial arts and spells well, and then find and protect my family forever! Yan Xingyu said with a serious expression.

"I'll help you find your family, but you have to help me fulfill a promise, and you can't be afraid of hardship, I heard that cultivation is really hard. Chen Mu rubbed his nose and replied.

"Miss Ben is not afraid of anything, you can be my little follower with peace of mind, I have found that you are better than a few of my maids these days!" ......

In this way, the two eight-year-old children talked to each other, and I chatted until dinner. It confirms the old saying that children are the easiest to be friends.

Zhao Niu brought two meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, and one soup, an elbow meat that Yan Xingyu likes to eat, and a fish that Chen Mu likes to eat.

Zhao Niu is a very careful and affectionate person, he knows the preferences of the two children clearly, and he does not dare to slack off when it comes to the backer.

After eating, Zhao Niu gave each of the two children a triangular peach wood sign with the words "Xuanqing Gate" written on it, and reminded them of the things to pay attention to when going up the mountain tomorrow.

"There are 9,999 steps from the foot of the mountain to the mountain gate, and you have to walk up to it, this is the last few days before the mountain is closed, and tomorrow you will definitely meet the inner disciples recommended by others. Always remind yourself not to eat their food and drink their water, maybe there are laxatives in it, and the bad-eyed child wants one less competitor. ”

"This year, the inner gate recruits a total of 400 disciples, and every year a hundred people are eliminated, and in the fourth year, if you can still stay in the Xuanqing Gate, you can become an official inner disciple. But don't have too much pressure, don't worry even if you are eliminated, you can apply to be an outer disciple, come to my inn to work, and you will have no worries about food and clothing. Zhao Niu patted his chest and raised his voice and said, he is not the kind of boss who only puts pressure.

In fact, he is more nervous than anyone else, and being able to ensure that these two children enter the inner door may change his life.

Xuanqing Gate is located on the main peak of the Xuanqing Mountain Range, Qitian Peak, the founder of the Xuanqing Mountains, discovered this unknown mountain range with strong aura, and then dug his own cave, with the increase in the number of monks who came to apprentice, it naturally became a big faction, named Xuanqing Gate.

Qitian Peak is far from the top, towering like a cloud, but it is not the highest peak, the Tianzhu Peak and Shangang Peak next to it are higher than it, but for some reason the concentration of spiritual energy is indeed very different.

The next day, before going up the mountain. The weather was gloomy, Chen Mu and Yan Xingyu stood at the foot of the mountain and looked up at Qitian Peak, their expressions were dull, it was difficult for these two children to accept that there was such a majestic and magnificent mountain in the world. The mountain gate overlooking the Xuanqing Gate halfway up the mountain is just a point the size of a grain of rice.

The number of people around who are ready to go up the mountain has slowly increased, and large bags and small bags abound, because the monks in charge of the mountain prohibit people who do not have a peach wood card from going up the mountain, Chen Mu and Yan Xingyu said goodbye to Zhao Niu, this farewell is at least a year or maybe forever.

Looking at the backs of the two children, Zhao Niu cried very sadly, he was indeed a sentimental and affectionate person.

"It's time to go up the mountain! Seeing that the weather is going to rain, if you don't leave, you can't go, you don't want to see the ** of the Xuanqing Mountain Range!" shouted the monk in charge, and then the children who were reluctant to cling to the adults slowly walked up the mountain road, turning back three times in one step.

Yan Xingyu took the initiative to take Chen Mu's hand, followed the crowd and walked quickly to the Qitian Peak, taking the first step on the road to cultivation.

Most of the people who went up the mountain were in front of Chen Mu, walking fast, and seemed to be very excited. Chen Mu belonged to the second echelon, a group of threes and twos, walking without hurry, but there were only five people behind them.

After walking for a while, a boy about ten years old came up and patted Chen Mu, "Brother, drink saliva, I have the famous mineral water in Lushui Town." As he spoke, he handed over the water, and as soon as Chen Mu was about to take it, he was beaten by Yan Xingyu and politely declined. The boy looked helpless, didn't say anything, and walked away.

When Chen Mu went up to almost three thousand steps, the mountain was covered with fog, the sky was dark, and it was going to rain. After a while, the downpour was going down, and everyone who went up the mountain was instantly drenched.

The monk made it very clear that any accident on the way up the mountain would be regarded as natural selection, and those who did not have the ability to reach the mountain gate would not be received by the Xuanqing Gate. If someone is in distress in this heavy rain, of course, it is also a natural selection.

The storm and the mountain wind were so strong that people couldn't stand up and walk straight at all, and the bean-sized raindrops hit people like pins and needles.

There were already people in the first echelon who couldn't move, and Chen Mu passed by five people who were sitting on the steps with sluggish expressions, "These five people must have been in a hurry at the beginning, and now they are resting because of their physical strength." We have to keep the rhythm of going up the mountain!" Chen Mu took a deep breath after speaking.

"Why don't we rest too, this wind and rain is too big!" Yan Xingyu shouted as he pressed the cloak on his head.

"You can't rest, if you can't reach the mountain gate before dark, the beasts in the mountains will be even more dangerous!" Chen Mu replied decisively.

As the storm continued, there were only three people who followed Chen Mu forward, and they couldn't see their appearance clearly, and their height should be about the same age.

Chen Mu leaned his ears and asked Yan Xingyu: "Have you noticed the people sitting on the stone steps when we passed by?", "How can I remember so many people, why are you asking this?", "Then have you noticed how many people there are? How do I feel that there are as many as thirty people, and there are only about twenty people who went up the mountain with us this morning!" Chen Mu felt that something was wrong.

Yan Xingyu is also a smart girl, her face changed in an instant, and she hugged Chen Mu's arm tightly.
