After a while, he jumped down with Hua Cuicui in his arms, came to Hua Sihai's side, and said, "Master, my sister has fainted." ”

Hua Sihai still has a faint smile on his face, Gujing Bubo, although he is over half a hundred years old, he is still handsome and extraordinary. He said lightly: "It's okay, she was just knocked unconscious, and she will wake up after a short rest." ”

Huo Shangwu, who looked worried, looked at Xu Yan and the others, but glared at Xu Yan and the others, and said: "Two junior brothers, the master ordered you two to protect the safety of your junior sister, but you are derelict in your duties, fortunately, the junior sister is fine, otherwise I will take care of you." Do you know who knocked my sister unconscious?"

"This ......"

The two looked at each other and were speechless for a long time. They slept sweeter than anyone else last night, so naturally they wouldn't know about Ling Xuan's small movements.

Hua Sihai said: "Shangwu, that person knocked Da Cui unconscious, but he didn't hurt her, he didn't have any malicious intentions, and this matter doesn't need to be investigated." ”

Xu Yan and Zhu Xiao secretly exhaled, looked at each other and raised their eyebrows, made a gesture of 'immortality', and immediately said in unison: "Thank you, Master." ”

While they were talking, Hua Cuicui vaguely felt that she was being held, and suddenly opened her eyes, and saw that it was Huo Shangwu who was holding her, her eyes like two pure black gems flashed a trace of surprise at first, and then her embarrassment was revealed, and she said, "Master...... Brother. ”

When the three of them heard the voice, they saw that she had woken up, and their faces flashed with a hint of joy and smiles, only Hua Sihai's face was still unwavering. Huo Shangwu didn't let go of his hand, and said happily: "Senior sister, you're awake!"

Hua Cuicui was secretly ashamed and said, "You...... You still don't let go of me. ”

The three of them froze slightly, and then laughed, but Huo Shangwu knew how to advance and retreat, and after laughing, he put her down. The unbridled laughter of the three made Hua Cuicui blush.

Hua Sihai said: "Okay, don't mess around." ”

The three of them immediately stopped laughing, Hua Cuicui secretly exhaled, quietly raised her eyes to look at Huo Shangwu, and quickly lowered her head.

Huo Shangwu looked at her with infinite tenderness, a thick smile was written on his face, and asked softly: "Da Cui, do you know who knocked you unconscious last night?"

Hearing this, Hua Cuicui subconsciously looked up at the roof on the left, and Hua Sihai also looked at it. Ling Xuan hid behind the roof, he hurriedly tightened his body, restrained his breath, and did not dare to come out.

Hua Cuicui looked at it for a while, retracted her gaze, and said softly, "I don't know." ”

Hua Sihai also retracted his gaze and said, "Okay, you go and pack up quickly, and when the sun rises, the selection will begin, and those who are late will be punished as abstention." ”

The four of them responded in unison: "Yes!"

Led by Hua Sihai, the five people walked into the village one after another, and after a while, they entered the house, and under the morning light, the lonely streets of this small mountain village immediately fell into a desert.

Ling Xuan, who was hiding behind the roof, exhaled secretly, and just glanced at it casually, but in his opinion, it was like a sharp arrow smashed into his head, and the storm-like coercion made him not even dare to breathe, at this time, he couldn't help but sweat profusely. However, he didn't have time to wipe the cold sweat off his forehead, and several people came in a row, and he was busy hiding his body, and he didn't dare to come out.

After about half an hour's effort, a full ten people flew past him, all of them were wearing the robes of the outer disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and one of them was Nangong Xuanlun. They did not stop, but swept directly past the village and headed for the cliff behind the village.

A huge mystery crept up into Ling Xuan's heart, according to Xu Yan, in the entire northwest region, there were only ten people who were lucky enough to come to participate in the selection of inner disciples, and last night he clearly saw that two outer disciples who came to participate in the selection of inner disciples were intercepted and killed, but where did the full ten people come from at this time?

Ten outer disciples flew past for a moment, and a round of red sun lazily climbed up the mountain, the golden sunlight was like countless brilliant golden threads, obliquely shining down, sprinkled all over the mountain stream, the cold and lonely small mountain village, as if awakened from a deep sleep, immediately a little more enthusiastic and unrestrained.

The five members of the Heavenly Sword Sect, led by Hua Sihai, walked out relatively and walked out to the street, and rushed to the cliff behind the village one after another, and disappeared after a while.

What is the conspiracy of the four ghosts?

Ling Xuan's heart seemed to be covered with a light veil, hazy, as if he was about to see the truth clearly, but the truth had always been so far away from him.

Hua Cuicui is gentle and considerate, innocent and simple, and treats him as a friend, he doesn't worry about her after all, so he decides to follow quietly.

Naturally, he couldn't resist the sword, and with the cultivation of the four seas, any trace of mana fluctuation within a radius of a hundred miles would probably not be able to escape his perception.

Ling Xuan jumped down from the roof where he was hiding, and quickly ran towards the cliff behind the village.

The cliff is about ten miles behind Potou Village, he ran all the way, about a quarter of an hour later, he could faintly hear the sound of rolling water, Ling Xuan slowed down, close to the cliff, found a place with dense trees to hide, and opened the branches and leaves, you can see Hua Sihai and other more than a dozen people, already standing in the open space on the edge of the cliff, the ten outer disciples, into ' A 'zigzag lined up, Hua Ruhai stood ten steps in front of them, facing them, with a faint smile on his face, but full of prestige, the ten outer disciples hung their heads tremblingly, not daring to face him; Hua Cuicui and the other four people stood behind Hua Sihai, Hua Cuicui held a plate in his hand, and there were ten jade teacups on the plate, the heat was rising, and the faint fragrance of tea was overflowing.

Obviously, the necessary pre-selection speech was nearing the end, Hua Sihai nodded lightly, Huo Shangwu and Hua Cuicui walked up left and right, Huo Shangwu shouted loudly: "The competition and selection is about to begin, according to the rules of the sect for selecting inner disciples over the years, you should each present a cup of tea to the sect master to show respect." However, Zongzhu has a lot of opportunities, and he can't come to assess you in person, and the tea will be served by the elders on the spot. Now, starting from the first place, the tea is served one by one. ”

Ten outer disciples, the first one is Nangong Xuanlun, Huo Shangwu's words landed, he walked out, took a jade cup from Hua Cuicui's hand, and handed it to Hua Sihai with both hands, respectfully.

"Uncle Shi, please drink tea. ”

He was born rich and noble, and he has been taught all kinds of etiquette and common sense since he was a child, although he is arrogant and arrogant, and there is no one in his eyes, but when he performs a salute, he is like flowing water, generous and decent, humble and natural, even if Ling Xuan deliberately picks on it, he can't find the slightest inappropriateness.

Hua Sihai smiled faintly, not seeing whether he was full or dissatisfied, he took the teacup and drank it all, then handed the teacup to Hua Cuicui.

Nangong Xuanlun cautiously retreated, and the second person followed closely, and also took a jade cup from Hua Cuicui's hand and solemnly handed it to Hua Sihai.

Although he attaches great importance to his demeanor, it is precisely because he pays too much attention to it that he loses his sense of nature, and he is full of loopholes, compared with Nangong Xuanlun, it is a world of difference, Nangong Xuanlun can't help grinning proudly when he sees it in his eyes.

The second place retired, and the third person walked up. This person is thin and weak, maybe because he is too nervous, when he reached out to pick up the jade cup in Hua Cuicui's hand, his hand shook slightly, and the cup slipped from his hand. The disciple's face immediately turned pale, and his whole body trembled slightly from extreme panic.

Hua Cuicui smiled as if encouraging, picked up another cup and handed it to him, and said softly: "Don't be nervous, just like offering tea to the elders in the family." ”

The outer disciple smiled bitterly, took the cup with a slight tremble, bent down and handed it to Hua Sihai, and said, "Uncle, please use tea." ”

Hua Sihai still smiled faintly, took the cup and drank it all.

Next, there were seven outer disciples left who stepped forward to serve tea one by one, but said that after they all finished serving tea, Hua Sihai signaled slightly, and Huo Shangwu walked up, he majestically pointed to the outer disciples standing in the second, ninth, and tenth places, and shouted: "You, you, you, unqualified, out." ”

The three disciples he had ordered were at a loss, why did they eliminate themselves for no reason? One of them had the courage to ask, "Dare to ask Uncle Shi, why did the disciple be out of the competition before the competition and selection?"
