Chapter 202 is the old man

The starlight was cold, and on the mountain road, the three people looked at each other silently. After a while, Zhong Qingzhu walked over silently, Zhong Qinglu glanced at her, smiled and said with a little surprise: "Qingzhu, where are you going so late?"

Zhong Qingzhu didn't answer her words, his eyes swept over Zhong Qinglu's face lightly, and landed on Shen Shi, but he showed a little weirdness, and said, "What about you, why are you still here so late at night?"

"Oh, I told Qinglu to go to my cave. Shen Shi spoke, but it was an unexpected confession, Zhong Qingzhu's face changed slightly, and he only heard Shen Shi continue: "I went down the mountain this time and found some spirit grass, thinking that I would ask Qinglu to refine a little spirit pill to come out, so as to prepare for the trial of the hundred mountains realm in front of me, but I didn't expect that there were many spirit grasses, and it was dark when I sorted it out." I saw that it was too dark, and the mountain road in my cave valley was not easy to walk, so I sent her over. By the way, Qingzhu, how are you prepared, why don't I give you some pills later?"

Zhong Qingzhu lowered his head slightly, and the complexion on his face seemed to have eased a little, but he still shook his head and said, "No need, I have already prepared it before." ”

Shen Shi said "oh", nodded and didn't say anything more, but Zhong Qinglu looked at Zhong Qingzhu for a long time, then suddenly frowned, and said, "Qingzhu, I don't think you seem to have a good complexion, is this injured?"

Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were both stunned, Shen Shi wanted to speak and stopped, Zhong Qingzhu glanced at Shen Shi, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, shook his head at Zhong Qinglu, and said, "A minor illness has been cured, and it is not in the way." In a few days, we will go to the Hundred Mountains Realm for trial, do you two have any thoughts?"

Zhong Qinglu smiled and said, "Is there anything worth thinking about over there in the Hundred Mountains Realm, but it's just a school examination." In my master's words, the most important thing for us disciples in the past is to get familiar with that atmosphere, and get used to the possibility of facing the dangerous and strange situation alone in the Wentian Secret Realm in the future, and then strive for our own opportunities. ”

Zhong Qingzhu sighed, and said, "My master's explanation to me is almost the same. By the way, Shishi, did your master say anything over there?"

Shen Shi thought for a while and said, "My master didn't say much, just one sentence." ”

Zhong Qinglu was a little curious, and said, "What is it?"

Shen Shi suddenly looked a little embarrassed and embarrassed, but after a while, under the gaze of the two women, he still said honestly:

"His old man said: life is the most important, just live. ”

Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu were both stunned at the same time, thinking that the idea of the elder of the Shutang Hall was really different, and the disciples under his disciples who entered the Wentian Secret Realm actually did not encourage them to try their best to explore and find opportunities, but only said some implicit negative words to save their lives.

After a while, Zhong Qingzhu first thought of something, and said: "Actually, Elder Pu said this, it is not completely unreasonable, the trip to the Asking Heaven Secret Realm has always been a trip to the Asking Heavens, although there are all kinds of opportunities to create countless talents, but if you really want to talk about it, every time you enter the Asking Heaven Secret Realm, there are actually a lot of Sizheng elites who have accidentally fallen over the years. ”

Zhong Qinglu also nodded, and said: "Yes, the secret realm of Wentian is extremely magical, it is said that every time you enter the secret realm, it will be a new world, and there is no old track to follow at all." And in its secret realm, there are many dangers, dangerous Jedi powerful demon beasts, often endless, if you are unlucky, it is indeed possible to die in the secret realm. Speaking of this, she paused for a moment, seemed to reminisce for a moment, and then said, "If I'm not mistaken, the trip to the secret realm of asking the heavens once every ten years, regardless of the disciples of the divine realm, but the disciples of the Ning Yuan Realm are about eighty people in each family, and a total of three hundred and twenty people have entered the secret realm, but when they come out, there will be a fraction of the number of people left in the secret realm, and they will never be able to come out again." ”

Shen Shi raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Zhong Qinglu, and said, "Zero?"

Zhong Qinglu shrugged helplessly and said, "Few people will take the initiative to say this, but it is true, as for the fractional number...... Two people are a fraction, and twenty people are also a fraction, I can't say for sure. ”

The three of them were a little silent for a while, before that, the Wentian Secret Realm had always been the supreme holy place that everyone longed for the most, and in fact, it was indeed the same. For thousands of years, I don't know how many Sizheng disciples have obtained an incredible inheritance of the Dao system in the secret realm of Wentian, and then bravely and diligently, writing a strong color in the Hongmeng cultivation realm, and writing countless legends.

Not to mention anything else, in the past three thousand years alone, all the real people in charge of the four famous sects have all been heroic figures who have entered the secret realm of Wentian and obtained powerful opportunities. Why is Du Tiejian, a disciple of the Huaiyuan True Sect of the Ling Xiao Sect, so famous and prestigious? A big reason is that he is the lucky one who is recognized by everyone as having a great opportunity after entering the Secret Realm of Asking Heavens.

In short, in the eyes of all the monks in the world, including the disciples of the Four Righteous Famous Sects, the Wentian Secret Realm is a high mountain and an immortal realm, although there may be risks and even deaths, but compared to the benefits, this small probability of risk is completely unwarranted, and it is completely worth fighting.

And whether it is Shen Shi, Zhong Qinglu or Zhong Qingzhu, the thoughts in the hearts of the three of them are also the same.

"Goodbye to the Hundred Mountains Realm. ”

After a moment of silence, Zhong Qingzhu said softly, and then turned around. Zhong Qinglu glanced at her back, then nodded slightly to Shen Shi, and also walked in the other direction above the mountain road. Shen Shi looked up at the night sky, only to see that the starlight was cold, and suddenly a little inexplicably lonely, I don't know if he had some feelings for the mysterious and magical strange land in the future, but he also didn't sigh anything, his eyes swept over the backs of the two women under the night starlight, turned around, and walked towards his own way.

The evening breeze blows, the sound of the waves is faint, and on the Jinhong Mountain, the mountain road is lonely.

The three of them parted ways and went their separate ways, and above them, the night was still deep and boundless.

※※※

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed in a hurry, and in the increasingly solemn and calm atmosphere, the Ling Xiao Sect finally ushered in the day that had been scheduled to go to the Hundred Mountains Realm for trial.

On this day, the sky was clear, the sky was high and the sea was wide, and it was a sunny and good weather. Jinhong Mountain's Shanghai breeze is refreshing, the trees are green and fragrant, and it is very lively on the sea viewing platform on weekdays.

This time, I went to the Hundred Mountains Realm to try, and I did two things, one was to select the elite disciples who would enter the Asking Heaven Secret Realm after half a year, and the other was to find opportunities in the Asking Heaven Secret Realm, and create a similar environment in the Hundred Mountains Realm for the disciples to sharpen.

The two complement each other, killing two birds with one stone.

In the crowd, there are different looks, there are excitement, anticipation, solemnity and nervousness, groups of three and two, each of whom knows each other whispering and chatting, but in general, in such a large number of people on the square platform, there are still two large pieces faintly divided.

On the one hand, there are many people, accounting for more than ninety percent of the head, and on the other hand, the number of people is very small, only twenty people.

However, in terms of momentum alone, the crowd of twenty disciples in that small group not only did not seem to be alone, but even faintly had the potential to contend with that large group of people. The disciples standing here all have calm faces, and their temperament and demeanor are above the level, but on the other side of the large number of people, from time to time, a large number of eyes will secretly look here, and there is no lack of envy, jealousy, and even yearning in their eyes.

These twenty people, who have a small number of people, are the disciples of the elders with some special identities, and they have already obtained the qualifications to go to the Four Righteous Assembly and enter the Secret Realm of Wentian without taking the school examination. In the eyes of the large number of disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect, these people seem to have some status that is no longer the same as themselves, maybe in a few decades or hundreds of years, among those people standing here today, there will be extremely powerful cultivators.

Shen Shi was naturally standing in this small group of people at this moment, but compared to the colleagues around him who looked confident and even a little proud, his mood was slightly complicated. For many years, from the time he first started cultivating until not long ago, he had been cultivating in an ordinary and even ignored situation, he had almost no chance to get ahead, and he didn't have too many showmanship, and it could even be said that Shen Shi himself was actually very accustomed to standing in the crowd of ordinary people and most people.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that at this time today, he would suddenly stand in the middle of these twenty people.

It was only at this time that he felt very strongly what a blessing Old Man Pu had for accepting him as an apprentice, even when he was apprenticed that day, it was not even as vivid and intense as it was today.

Zhong Qingzhu and Zhong Qinglu were also standing among the twenty people, as well as Sun You, who was also here, seeing their figures, Shen Shi's mood eased a little, and at the same time, he was a little inexplicably relieved, among the newcomer disciples who worshiped Qingyu Island back then, it seemed that they were indeed the most powerful and talented people in these years.

However, when everyone smiled at him, the first person to come forward to greet Shen Shi was not the three friends he knew, but another young man who suddenly appeared beside him.

He looked at Shen Shi gently, then laughed, smiled and stretched out his hand to Shen Shi, and said:

"Long time no see, Shen Shi. ”

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, looking at this somewhat unfamiliar face, but after looking closely, he suddenly felt a little familiar, the memory slowly turned in his mind, and after a while, he was suddenly stunned, and then with a little surprise and a little surprise, he laughed and said:

"Ganze?"

Gan Ze smiled and nodded, the hand was still in front of him, Shen Shi looked at him deeply, the two of them looked at each other, as if they had seen the reflection in each other's clear eyes in a moment, the boyhood that was still weak in the depths of memory, and went to Demon Island on a big boat to practice.

After a moment, the two hands clasped together and the two men looked at each other and smiled.
