Chapter 1, Jiazi Contest (1)
Gu Jian, a famous family in the world, has 3,000 disciples, and is located in a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River. The ancient sword is divided into three peaks, respectively, the main peak Feilai Peak, close to the West Lake, the scenery is beautiful, the side peak looks at the moon, located in the east of the Feilai Peak, near the sea, a hundred years ago the Kraken invaded on a large scale, because the Kraken invasion was too sudden, no one came and reacted, the entire Moon Peak was almost destroyed, the head of the Moon Peak and the elders were all killed, only a few disciples survived, and the disciples who survived later also switched to the Feilai Peak, so there is the desolation of today's Moon Peak. This third peak is Guanhai Peak, located on the bank of the Qiantang River, adjacent to the sea, but far from the other two peaks.
Because of the large number of disciples, there is a Jiazi competition, which is held every 70 years, from which talented disciples are selected for key training, and the disciples who rank high in the competition are rewarded. For the disciples of the ancient sword, each Jiazi competition is one of the most noteworthy events for them, after all, few people can participate in two Jiazi competitions.
By the time Lin Chong and them arrived, it was already the seventy-third session.
Each session of the competition is held in the square on the main peak of Feilai Peak, a few days before the competition, the disciples of the main peak will build sixty-four rings according to the trend of gossip, the day before the competition The rest of the two peak disciples will come to Feilai Peak, draw lots to determine their opponents, rings, and familiar with the venue.
On this day, there are still seven days left before the Jiazi competition. Bai Yunfei came to Moon Peak with the lunch box as usual, but when he pushed the door open, he didn't see Lin Chong, which is quite rare for Bai Yunfei, Lin Chong's other Bai Yunfei didn't dare to say, but he still knew a lot about eating, Lin Chong would definitely stay in the house at this time of day, after all, it had been like this for decades, but he wasn't there today, which was quite strange, Bai Yunfei put down the lunch box, pondered for a while, patted his forehead gently, and said softly: " He must have gone to Mochizuki Rock, how could I forget his hobby!" he shook his head and smiled as he walked north.
At the beginning of the night, the sun has just set, the waning moon is rising, on the moon rock, alone, the breeze is light, blowing the placket, like an undecorated painting, always feel that something is missing.
Walking on the trail, from a distance, Bai Yunfei saw the figure on the Moon Rock, and couldn't help but smile in his mouth, and when he got closer, before Bai Yunfei could speak, Lin Chong's voice came: "You are here." Bai Yunfei was shocked, but he didn't think much about it, just "En", and when he walked to Lin Chong's side, Bai Yunfei took a closer look, and saw that Lin Chong's face was very bad today, and his eyes showed a little crazy color from time to time, and he couldn't help but have a little worried look in his eyes, and couldn't help asking: "Lin Chong, what's wrong with you?", Lin Chong raised his head slightly, looked at Bai Yunfei, and said, "I'm just thinking about how to go down the mountain." When Bai Yunfei heard this, his voice couldn't help but be a little higher: "Why are you still thinking about how to go down the mountain, you must know that you can't go down the mountain without the consent of the elders in the sect." Lin Chong laughed and said, "Are there any elders on this Moon Peak?" Bai Yunfei opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to refute. After a long time, Bai Yunfei remembered the purpose of his visit, and said, "I almost forgot about the others, I came to ask you to go back to eat." Go back to eat first, and after a while, the dishes will be cold. Seeing that he deliberately diverted the topic, Lin Zhong didn't know what he was saying, nodded, and went back with Bai Yunfei.
Returned to Lin Chong's residence, but saw that the door had already been opened, the two looked at each other suspiciously, Bai Yunfei signaled, the two walked in, as soon as they entered, they saw an old man in white sitting at the table feasting, so uncomfortable, the lunch box had already been opened, and the old man was eating at this time, needless to say, it was the dinner that Bai Yunfei prepared for Lin Chong.
For Lin Chong, this old man didn't know how many times he had seen it, but for Bai Yunfei, it was the first time he had seen it. Bai Yunfei knew in his heart that this old man was by no means an ordinary person, so he seemed quite calm, so he just asked: "Dare to ask ...... senior?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man: "Little guy, why do you talk more than Lin Chong, this stinky boy, be quiet for a while, and wait for the old man and me to finish eating before talking." Bai Yunfei was stunned, looked at Lin Chong, and found that he was looking at the old man in front of the table with a helpless face at this time, and couldn't help but worry in his heart: I have never seen this old man, and the terrible thing is that I can't see through his cultivation at all, but it seems that he should be a member of this sect, and he should be familiar with Xiao Chong, so it should be no big deal. Nodding, he didn't ask anymore, just stood there, looking straight ahead.
At this moment, Lin Chong's stomach screamed disobediently, and Lin Chong smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to say. The old man Yu Guang, who had already eaten about the same amount of food that Bai Yunfei brought, glanced at Lin Chong, and said vaguely with something in his mouth: "Young people are hungry, bear with it." Lin Chong and Bai Yunfei actually just listened to a rough idea, but they also heard the old man's meaning clearly.
Bai Yunfei didn't want Lin Chong to be hungry all night, so he couldn't help but say, "Xiaozhong, follow me to Feilai Peak, and come back after eating." Lin glanced at the old man before he said, "No need, didn't he also say it, what's the point of being hungry like this." You should go back too, you see, he's pretty much eaten. The old man in white looked at Lin Zhong with a little surprise, and said in a low voice, "Stubborn little guy." The voice was not loud, but Lin Chong and Bai Yunfei could hear it clearly, and no matter how the two reacted, the old man wiped his mouth with his sleeve, burped, and walked out satisfied, at least it seemed like this. After silently cleaning up everything on the table, Lin Zhong handed the lunch box back to Bai Yunfei, and said at the same time: "I will participate in this Jiazi competition, you can go back." Bai Yunfei, who was still in the fugue too empty, came back to his senses when he heard this, although the old man in white was gone, but this was not the point, the important thing was that Lin Zhong was willing to participate in the Jiazi competition. Bai Yunfei laughed, took the lunch box, and said, "Xiao Chong, are you telling the truth? Are you really willing to participate?" Lin Chong also smiled and said, "Are you afraid that I will steal your limelight?" Bai Yunfei glanced at Lin Chong undeniably, and said: "If you can win the first, then I will also obey, who called you my brother." Lin Zhong waved his hand and said, "Go back, there are not a few days left before the Jiazi competition." Bai Yunfei sighed, said early to bed, and went back with the lunch box.
When Bai Yun flew away, Lin Chong spoke up: "Old man, you are not kind enough!" Hearing this, the old man in white who had already left flashed out of nowhere, sat on the table with a grin, and said, "Little guy, have you decided?" Lin Chong looked at him and said a little helplessly: "You forced me to go to Feilai Peak, what else can I do, it's just that I have always wanted to know, old man, who are you, don't prevaricate every time with the excuse that you will know in the future, to be honest." ”
The old man looked at Lin Chong, who was still standing at the door, and said, "Didn't I say it, you will know in the future, and besides, didn't I also say it, you know now that it is not good for you, you have to learn to calm down, it is good for you." Why don't you listen to me, old man? ”
Lin Zhong sighed, as if he had known that this would be the case, and said, "Old man, go back, I should also sleep, good dreams." But he didn't want the old man to raise his eyebrows, and said, "Old man, I don't want to move today, so I'll sleep here." After saying that, he curled up on the table like a fool. Lin Zhong shook his head, he had no choice but to go to the main hall of Moon Peak to sleep for one night, before leaving, he closed the dilapidated door, and originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about it again, he scratched his head and walked to the main hall.
