Volume 1 Lincheng Chapter 15 There is no answer
First chicken or first egg? I'm afraid that no matter how you answer, Qi Yun won't be satisfied, and Qi Yun doesn't want everyone to answer at all.
"What's the question? What's that, that's not right?"
"Anyway, won't you deduct points if you lose?
At this time, someone tried to answer the chicken, Qi Yun said that the answer was wrong, and some disciples said that it was an egg, or was it wrong, everyone was confused, the chicken and the egg were at the same time?
"It seems that none of you can answer correctly, so the second question, is there a man or a woman first?" Qi Yun raised his hand behind his back and asked again.
The disciples fried the pot directly, and some people were very upset and questioned directly.
"Mr. Qi, what kind of problem are you? Isn't it clear that you won't let the answer be correct? No matter what you answer, you say it's wrong, so what is the correct answer, you say it, so that we can lose convincingly!"
"Yes, Mr. Qi, please advise!" one of the disciples chimed in.
The disciples were Top Gun, and questioned Qi Yun with righteousness.
Qi Yun shook his sleeve robe and sneered: "There is no correct answer, even if there is, in my case, it is all wrong." β
Everyone was at a loss, and some were indignant, and they expressed their protest and dissatisfaction.
"What the hell is this?"
"Isn't this a clear trick for people? Don't you let people pass?"
"How can the academy invite such a person to be the assessment instructor, is there a mistake?!"
Everyone was angry and blamed the unfairness of this assessment.
"What's the hurry? Isn't there a third question? a bunch of rabbit cubs!"
Qi Yun shouted angrily, and everyone present quieted down.
Sure enough, this Qi Yun didn't want the disciples to take a good assessment at all, and the highlight was probably on the third question of three points, which was also Qi Yun's purpose, Mu Zheng sneered.
Qi Yun suddenly became ruthless, slapped his hands on the board, and threatened: "Before the third question begins, I give you a piece of advice, once the third question starts, you can't quit halfway, if you answer correctly, you will pass the test, but your life may not be guaranteed, but if you answer wrong, you may still lose your life, and if you don't want to lose your life, you can choose to leave now!"
Lives in jeopardy?
Mu Zheng stared at the hideous-looking Qi Yun in front of him, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, what kind of test question is this?
But he knew that he could still participate in the next assessment if he quit now, but he would have to wait for a year if he missed this opportunity, and he didn't want to waste time.
What's more, I don't even dare to die, what kind of revenge is there to talk about?
Qi Yun also said just now, it's just possible, that is to say, the chances are half of them, and there may not be a danger to their lives.
At this time, many disciples had gradually left the scene, and they thought that it was more important to live first than the name of the original cultivators.
This Qi Yun did what he said about eliminating half, and now there are very few left on the field, Mu Zheng looked up, Bing Qing and Jiang Lin were still among them.
"I'm a little impressed by all of you here. β
"Mr. Qi, what's the third question?" Mu Zheng said with a smile.
Qi Yun sat down, clasped his hands to his chest, and said unhappily: "You have passed the test, you can go to the second assessment venue." β
Mu Zheng asked a little puzzled: "So, this is the third question just now?"
Qi Yun replied lazily: "The people of Lincheng put their lives in your hands, you should put your lives in your hands, people who don't even realize their death, even if they go to the battlefield, I'm afraid they will only flee from the battle, can they still be expected to save people?"
And as I said earlier, it may be life-threatening, which means that the choice is always in your own hands, and it is fear that causes those people to give up on the assessment. β
"Kill people first, Mr. Qi is a good method!" Bingqing couldn't help but praise.
It is true that the means are clever, and everyone ignores the word possible because they are afraid, while the brave are fearless, and the confident often have strength.
"Why do you still want to stay here and not leave, waiting to lose your qualifications?" At this time, the woman beside Qi Yun came out to speak again.
At this time, Mu Zheng noticed her.
Dressed in cloth, Danfeng eyes, and a cinnabar mole at the corner of the eye, simple and clean with some sadness.
Just when a few people were confused, the woman explained again: "My name is Jiang Cha, and I am the mentor of your next assessment, without further ado, hurry up and conduct the assessment!"
β...οΌβ
This acute child instantly broke the first impression.
In the next second, Jiang Cha sealed with one hand, and the appearance of the study changed in an instant, and a whirlpool door appeared in front of everyone's eyes, which was a sealing technique that Mu Zheng had never seen before, which was completely different from Jiang Lin.
"Jiang Cha, he is the proud protΓ©gΓ© of the gambling addict Xiao Er. Bingqing looked at Mu Zheng, who was standing aside in a daze, and smiled slightly.
"Gambling idiot disciple?" Mu Zheng's tone was slightly surprised.
"It's normal that you don't know, she is a person from the Secret Pavilion in the city, and she usually doesn't show up much, so naturally the fewer people who know, the safer she is. Bingqing explained.
So that's the case, no wonder Mu Zheng has just heard that the gambling idiot has a female disciple who closes the door, but he has never heard of this name, and he dares to hide it here.
Mu Zheng admired it in his heart, and spoke with appreciation: "But this sealing technique is very different from Jiang Lin, and it is the first time I have seen it." β
"Not to mention you, even I've seen it the first time that a one-handed seal can be done so quickly, and looking at his gestures, I'm afraid it's a space magic circle, and this spiral door should be a magic circle that links somewhere. Jiang Lin came over and added.
Looking at the groups of chattering disciples in front of him, Jiang Cha said impatiently: "Let me talk about the rules first, first, you must form a team of three people and receive the bell before you are eligible to participate; second, the customs clearance requirement is that there must be two bells of different colors in the team, and then the team cannot be less than two; third, and the most important point this time, Zhao must find the exit of the enchantment within two days, even if you fail the assessment, you must come out, otherwise the gods will not be able to save you." β
Mu Zheng's heart sank, after entering the assessment place, it seemed that even if he got the bell, he had to find the right exit, otherwise it would still be considered a failure, and this time I am afraid it would depend on Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin noticed Mu Zheng's gaze and nodded slightly.
"It's almost time, go over there to sign first, and then go in a team of three to get the bell and enter the assessment site. Jiang Cha was stunned for a moment, then turned around and said solemnly: "This time, there will be assessment disciples from other cities to join, boys, don't die!"
It seems that this is not just a simple trial for beginners, but also a battle between cities!
Regardless of life and death, each has a destiny, and cannot seek revenge, and I swear here today that I will voluntarily bear any result without complaint.
It seems that this is a life and death signature.
Once signed, there was no chance to turn back after stepping into the spiral door, looking at everyone's hesitant expressions, Mu Zheng wrote his name happily.
After signing the certificate of life and death, everyone formed a team of three people according to the requirements, Mu Zheng naturally went to a group with Jiang Lin and Bingqing, and roughly observed, and there were only seven groups present, which is indeed a pitiful small number.
Jiang Lin asked, "Mu Zheng, how sure are you?"
Mu Zheng said with a smile: "If it is these disciples, there are about seven or eighty percent, but if it is a disciple of another city, it is not necessarily, after all, I don't know what everyone's strength is, everything can only be taken one step at a time." β
Bingqing also stepped forward: "I think the most important thing is to find an exit, otherwise even if you complete the task, there will be no way to get out." β
After agreeing, the three of them stepped into the spiral gate together, and in front of them was a dense mountain forest, and the sky was dark, and they even felt a little cold.
Mu Zheng was actually very worried in his heart, he didn't know what color the bells in each group's hands were, if he attacked blindly, and the other party was the same color as the yellow bells in his hands, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
So be sure to find out what color bell the other party is first, and then make a plan to be foolproof.
Mu Zheng thought about it in his heart and decided to solve this problem in the simplest way.
After a loud bell was ringing, the assessment officially began.
The three of them walked along the trail all the way, and they didn't find anyone along the way.
I don't know how long it took, but the three of them were a little tired, so they found a dense tuft of grass and lay down, ready to hide and rest for a while.
The three of them looked around.
Jiang Lin said: "I didn't find anyone here. β
Bingqing continued: "I'm also sure to be safe here, what about Mu Zheng, where are you?"
Mu Zheng carefully inspected the surroundings, and at the moment when he was about to speak, he heard a slight footstep, and frowned: "It seems that someone in the northeast is approaching us!"
Immediately after that, the footsteps got closer and closer, and the three of them held their breath and couldn't help but get nervous, only to see that the first thing that came into sight was a pair of magnolia sheepskin boots embroidered with gold thread.
Looking up, the aqua green dress covered a pair of slender legs, a purse tied to a bright yellow belt, a jade bracelet on her pink and white wrist, and a pink and delicate little face came into view.
No matter how you look at it, she looks like a cute little girl, eleven or twelve years old, and her smile is innocent.
After a while, seeing that the little girl didn't move, Jiang Lin exhaled and whispered, "It's just a little girl... I guess it was arranged to make up the numbers..."
Jiang Lin closed his mouth before he finished speaking, but he didn't say any more, only to see a man in Tsing Yi burst out from behind the girl, this man in Tsing Yi was about to sneak attack her, the girl just turned around slightly, and the man in Tsing Yi fell to the ground in pain.
In a short time, she bled to death, and no one knew when the girl did it, or whether there was a companion of the girl who was helping her.
Mu Zheng clutched a dagger tightly with both hands, and some sweat droplets couldn't help but appear on his forehead, and his expression became worried.
The girl took out a small bottle from her bosom, and with a slight bend of her little hand, a few drops of liquid dropped on the young man's body, and in a few seconds the man's body was burned to the ground, leaving no trace on the ground.
