Even an irascible old lady like Layla couldn't help but hold her breath as soon as she entered the meditation hall, and she didn't dare to make a mistake at all, because she didn't know if it was a psychological effect, and this hall seemed to have some kind of strong sense of coercion.

The hall was extremely empty, empty except for the throne in the center, and the interior was shaped like an inverted bowl, without even a single column, and was completely supported and fixed by an elaborate architectural structure.

The monastery has electricity, but there are no lights in the hall, and all the light comes from the sky above the throne, creating a visual effect of bright in the middle and dim around the perimeter, plus three circles of rising ground, so that the people on the throne look down on all beings like the lord of the gods on the top of the mountain.

Catherine stood in the middle circle and stood respectfully with her hands down, and Jiang Chanji stood in the lowest outer circle after they came in, and did not dare to move around at will.

The head of the yard's gaze swept over them, especially at the human bone scepter that Louisa was holding.

"All the young talents who have come from afar are enough to make our courtyard shine. The head priest said, "Catherine, introduce me. ”

The voice of the head of the courtyard echoed through the empty hall, as if coming from all directions.

"Yes. Catherine pointed out Jiang Zenji and No. 33 as messengers, and only said that Luisa was from the witchcraft tribe, and said that Layla was a friend of Luisa and accompanied Luisa, and No. 15 was also dealt with in the same way.

A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the head of the courtyard, "Your name is Jiang Chanji, I thought it would be Aurora." ”

"Aurora has been busy developing new ways to use her abilities lately, and thanks to the head of the house, she sent me to greet the head pastor. Jiang Chanji said in earthy English, fortunately, he had prepared in advance and spoke very fluently.

However, it seems that Senior Sister Aurora is really famous, and even the head of the yard has heard her name.

"I've heard that Aurora is the best of the younger generation at Momiji Academy, so it's good that she's willing to give up her reputation and work hard, and the future is promising. The head of the courtyard re-examined Jiang Zenji, because the one who could come in place of Aurora and she had never heard the name must be a new up-and-comer, "Which teacher have you been with for a long time?"

"Teacher Li Muqin. He replied.

"Oh...... Li Muqin, yes, the temperament is also somewhat similar. The head priest nodded in understanding.

Layla was a little unconvinced, and said that the shepherd of this hospital was so big, and Li Muqin only got a "good" evaluation from her?

"This is a handwritten letter from the dean of the academy that I have brought you, please take a look at it. Jiang Chanji took out the envelope that had been carefully kept along the way.

Catherine walked to the outer circle, took the envelope, walked into the inner circle, handed her hands to the head of the house, and then returned to the middle circle.

The head pastor opened the letter and took advantage of the daylight to quickly read it.

Jiang Chanji waited anxiously.

Catherine stood with her back to the head of the yard, facing Jiang Chanji and them, but her eyes did not look at anyone, but drooped slightly, like a maid waiting for orders.

When she came in first just now, Jiang Chanji and the others were still outside the door, the door was closed, and she deliberately paid attention to check, because she remembered what her sister had said, when the head of the courtyard summoned her sister alone, her sister had a certain feeling, in addition to the head of the courtyard, there seemed to be a third person in the hall.

There was no place to hide people in the Hall of Meditation, except on the back of the Patriarch's throne.

The throne is also stone, nearly one person high, slightly longer than the width of a single sofa, and the back is enough to hide one person, if it is not a fat person, it is no problem to squeeze some to hide two or three people.

When she handed Jiang Chanji's letter to the head of the courtyard, she naturally walked to the side of the throne, and when she handed it over, she bent down and lowered her head, and her eyes quickly glanced behind the throne.

Although she could only see half of the area behind the throne from this angle, she basically dispelled her doubts, and was eighty percent sure that there were no Tibetans behind the throne.

If there was someone hiding behind the throne, she wouldn't have thought that she would suddenly glance at it, and no nun or sister had dared to do this before...... Even if it is not good, it will instinctively dodge, but if it dodges, it will definitely bring dust fluttering.

That's right, the sky light shines down from above the throne, and the surroundings are dim, so every speck of dust in the light can be seen clearly, and as long as someone moves, regardless of the level of master, it will drive the convection of the air, which in turn will change the direction of the dust.

But no.

So it should be my sister who is nervous, and it's no wonder that the extremely solemn atmosphere of the meditation hall has a strong sense of oppression.

Crash.

The head of the house folded the letter and stuffed it back into the envelope, and Catherine quickly took her thoughts back.

"Thank you for the letter from the dean, seeing the words is like seeing people, and the high wind and bright festival of the dean's concern for the world can be seen in the letter. ”

Jiang Chanji waited for the following words, but the head of the courtyard did not continue to speak, but looked at No. 33 and said: "The Ninja Academy is well versed in the way of Taoguang and obscurity, no matter how the outside world changes, the sect master sits firmly in Diaoyutai, and this time he even sent a messenger here, what is the matter?"

No. 33 sensitively heard that when the head of the academy talked about the Ninja Academy, his tone was obviously different from when he talked about the Momiji Academy, but there was no way, the outside world had always had a bad perception of the Ninja Academy.

She took out the letter, "This is a letter from the sect master, please see it." ”

Catherine also took it and handed it to the head chaplain.

After reading it, the head of the yard stuffed the letter back into the envelope and muttered silently.

The sect master's letter was similar to that of the head of the academy, which was nothing, but the things behind it were worth thinking about, and she had to consider the possibility of the Ninja Academy and the Momiji Academy coming together or even forming an alliance.

"Could it be that the chief has also written a letter?" she looked at Louisa again.

"No, the chief didn't know that I was here, because I agreed with their philosophy, so I came with them, hoping that the shepherd's wife would fulfill them for the sake of the common people in the world. Luisa said.

The Yardmaster smiled lightly, "The Chief knows more than you think. ”

She looked at Layla and No. 15 again, and saw that they didn't mean to speak, so she said: "You have come from afar, thousands of miles to deliver letters for me, I should do my best to be a landlord, but this hospital has always advocated Qing Xiu, I am afraid there is nothing to entertain you......"

Although she hadn't finished speaking, Jiang Chanji didn't sound right, and felt that it might be a send-off, and a person of her status was unlikely to change it once he said the words of send-off, so he was about to interject when he suddenly heard a rumbling sound outside, like the sound of a boulder rolling.

Everyone was shocked and inexplicable, and the head priest frowned and was silent.

"Patriarch!" a nun pushed the door open and said in alarm, "There is an avalanche!"

They live on the snowy mountains, and they can clear the horror of avalanches more than anyone else, and the kind of ice and snow storm that sweeps everything is a "death" word once it is encountered by ordinary people.

"Oh no! Arabella is still outside!"

Catherine ignored the etiquette in front of the head of the yard, and ran out like crazy.

"We're going to help too!"

Jiang Chanji ran out with him, and his voice came from afar: "Madam Pastor, please wait a while!"

No. 33 and Luisa hesitated for a second or two, nodded apologetically to the head of the house, and followed.

The rest of the 15th and Layla, they stayed and didn't know what to say to the head of the yard, so they simply ran out to avoid embarrassment.

Except for the younger nuns, almost all the nuns moved, and when Jiang Chanji and the others ran out, there were not a few people left outside.

"Catherine!" Jiang Chanji chased Catherine's figure into the lava tunnel.

No. 33 and Luisa only hesitated for a second or two just now, and when they chased into the tunnel, they couldn't see Jiang Chanji and Catherine, and there seemed to be many identical forks in the tunnel, and it might not be good to walk around, so they had to withdraw again.

Catherine, who rushed into the tunnel, heard footsteps behind her, and looked back to see Jiang Chanji coming over, and wanted to let him go back, but he hurriedly said, "I close my eyes and don't look, you pull me away." ”

Saving people is like fighting fire, once Arabella and they are buried by an avalanche, they can suffocate to death at any time.

Catherine didn't want to waste time and grabbed his wrist with no loss of speed.

Jiang Chanji kept his eyes closed, and he could clearly feel that the route he took this time was different from just now, there were more straight lines, and sometimes he needed to jump, and it only took less than a third of the time just now, and he felt a cold wind blowing in his face.

As Catherine let go of her hand, he opened his eyes and found himself back outside the mountain.

Outside the tunnel, a nun was wandering anxiously, and Catherine asked, "What about Arabella?"

"It's not there yet, the sisters are all going down to look for it!"

Catherine gritted her teeth and sped down the hill to the way she came.

Jiang Chanji followed behind and saw many nuns in white cotton robes scattered to search.

When they first walked the road, it was unrecognizable, and the avalanche changed the terrain nearby, and the road was already submerged in snow.

"Ah ......"

"Don't shout! it will cause a new avalanche!" said Catherine, looking back.

Jiang Chanji suddenly realized that after the avalanche happened once, the snow along the road was loosened, and it was likely to happen a second time.

No wonder everyone is silently searching, but the efficiency of this search is too low, the mountain is so big, there is snow everywhere, where to find it?

He also pretended to scatter and walked around to the back of a rock wall alone.

"Squidbeard, can you find the girl named Arabella?" he asked.

The alien squid in the lake is not motivated by such trivial matters that have no vital interests.

"You reacted so badly to the shepherd, didn't you want to know how good the shepherd really is?" he added, feeling like he was bargaining.

That's right, when I saw the head of the yard just now, Squid Beard showed the strongest reaction ever, pointing at the head priest with his tentacles, as if he was extremely jealous, but ...... The tentacles seem to be pointing in a somewhat off-direction direction, not referring to the shepherd himself, but to the back of the throne.

Squid whiskers lazily lifted their tentacles and pointed in a direction.

Jiang Chanji saw that everyone was concentrating on saving people, and no one paid attention to him, so he quietly entered a state of stealth, he repeatedly studied the records in Zhao Man's mobile phone in the past few days, and had a little experience, set the penetration target as "snow", and then jumped into the snow.

Unlike when penetrating the door panel, which is opaque, the inside of the door panel is pitch black, but the snow has some light transparency.

"Snow" did not exist for him, he jumped in the snow, the soles of his shoes fell on the rocks, there was not a single snowflake on his body, and he did not feel the resistance of the snow.

Although the light was as dim as evening, he regained his sights of the mountain road buried by the avalanche.

He ran a few steps forward, looked up, and saw the nuns in cotton robes walking back and forth at a height of thirty or forty centimeters above his head, anxiously looking for Arabella and them.

Arabella must have followed the same path up the mountain, and when they encountered an avalanche, their first instinct was to find cover.

He bent his waist and quickly shuttled back and forth on both sides of the mountain road, looking for any place where he could hide people.

Then he saw them behind a rock face.

The nuns all hugged each other, clinging to the rock wall, half-lying on the ground motionless, while the nuns on both sides hugged the rock wall together, as if using the rock wall to resist the impact of an avalanche to avoid being swept down the mountain by the avalanche, and No. 22 was also among them.

Jiang Chanji hurriedly ran to their side, judging from the dimness of the surrounding light, they were buried under the snow.

He saw Arabella, who was being held in the center by the crowd, and they had used their bodies to prop up a cavity where there should still be some air, and he saw her mouth squirming, as if crying for help.

He jumped up slightly, out of stealth, and when his feet landed again, he was already stepping on the snow, and sure enough, he heard Arabella's faint cry.

He had already seen the position, put his hands in the snow, forcibly dragged the top nun out, and then dragged them out of the snow pit one by one.

"Arabella, it's me, don't be afraid, we've come to your rescue!" he grabbed her by the arm and pulled her last one out.

"Chan Ji...... Sisters...... Are you still alive?" the tears on her face had frozen.

"They should still be alive. He reassured.

The rescued nuns turned blue, I don't know if they were freezing or suffocating, anyway, the situation was not good, but he touched the necks of several people, and the pulse did not disappear.

Since he couldn't shout, Jiang Chanji pinched a handful of snowballs in his left and right hands, first threw one into the air, and then threw the second one to break the first, and a large white snow foam exploded in the air, so as to send a signal.

The other nuns quickly gathered in this direction.

They didn't have time to be surprised to see that he had rescued so many people, they had experience dealing with avalanches, and each was in charge of an unconscious nun who gave artificial respiration to the person in distress.

Catherine rushed over, and seeing that Arabella was safe and sound, she had no time to relax, and ordered, "They are hypothermic!

Saying that, she picked up the 22nd and gave Jiang Chanji a grateful look, meaning to let him and Arabella rest for a while and then catch up, they have to rescue the injured first, at this time she can't just take care of her sister, although this is human nature, but it will make other sisters chill.
