The lingering sound rushed into the cave with the help of immortal energy, resounding like a bell in the ears of the wrinkled old man.
Yandao was woken up and dragged his aging body out of the cave step by step.
"Master."
Seeing him face to face, Sheng Xiaomo quickly bowed and saluted.
Yandao waved to him, then looked at Qin Yao: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Qin Yao used magic to create a chair and a bench, and pointed his finger: "Sit down and chat."
Yandao paused for a moment and sat on a stone bench.
Qin Yao waved, took Sheng and Xiaomo to sit opposite him, and asked: "Old master, how did you find out that Zi Hua was in danger of life and death?"
"It is estimated."
Qin Yao nodded and said: "What a coincidence, I have also learned an immortal method before, called the fortune-telling chart. I had nothing to do last night, so I tried to deduce the fortune for Changliu, and it turned out that Changliu also has a life and death calamity.
.”
Yandao: "..."
Since Xia Zixun was from the Seven Kills Sect and not a disciple of Changliu, Yandao didn't know whether the other party had any plans to predict his fate.
But what he knows is that Xia Zixun is a smart person and will not come to him out of nowhere with no clear purpose.
"In your deduction, will Mo Yan hurt Chang Liu?" Soon, Yan Dao asked in a serious voice.
Qin Yao said: "He loves the sect and the junior disciples you asked him to protect, so he will not take the initiative to harm Changliu. But his character determines his destiny. His willful, stubborn, stubborn and decadent style will be seen in the future.
Invisibly hurting the things he wants to protect."
Yandao thought thoughtfully and said slowly: "I have also thought about this problem, so I passed the position of head to Zi Hua and told Mo Yan to protect the master and Zi Hua. In my opinion,
Although Mo Yan has an extreme personality, he respects his teacher and will definitely not disobey my orders."
Qin Yao: "I'm afraid that the protection he imagined is not the protection Zi Hua wants. Let me give you an example. If Zi Hua has a woman he likes in the future, what do you think Mo Yan will do?"
Yandao: "..."
Shengxiaomo's thoughts spread, and she thought to herself: If that day comes, senior brother Mo Yan will probably separate them at all costs.
And Zi Hua is a very thoughtful person, so the two may turn against each other...
"You raised the problem, is there any solution?" Yandao asked.
Qin Yao nodded: "The solution lies with you. Don't die. Watch him."
Yan Dao said helplessly: "I don't want to either...but there is no cure for the five declines of heaven and man."
"How about I give it a try?" Qin Yao said.
Yan said: "???"
What are you trying?
"Exalted Immortal, what my master said is that heaven and man have five declines." Sheng Xiao said silently.
Qin Yao glanced at him: "I didn't hear any hallucinations. I knew it was the decline of heaven and man."
Yandao suddenly reacted, his eyes full of shock: "Do you have a way to solve the five declines of heaven and man?"
Just kidding, of course there is a way.
In orthodox mythology, regardless of whether it is the Eastern God or the Western God, who will be the one who will lose the gods and the five gods?
This will not happen even to those Yin gods who became gods through pure faith.
But there is no need to tell them these things. They have different worldviews and they can’t understand it, so Qin Yao directly raised his palm and released a ball of pure white power of faith in his palm: "Look at this, can it be a solution?"
.”
Yandao released his spiritual thoughts and carefully sensed the properties of the power of faith. His eyes suddenly widened with shock on his face.
Sheng Xiaomo sensed the power of faith, felt the vitality in it, and said in a voiceless voice: "What kind of power is this?"
Qin Yao said silently in his heart: This is the power that the Buddha of the West and even the gods of the West rely on for their survival.
Although the gods in the East also compete for belief, it is more because of the dispute over orthodoxy than the need for the power of faith.
But Western Buddhism is different. They really need this power of faith, so the Buddha talked about taking refuge. The more believers there are, the more powerful the Buddha will be...
"Try it." Soon, Qin Yao said.
Yandao raised his trembling right hand, covered Qin Yao's palm in the air, and absorbed the power of faith into his body. His thin body suddenly trembled violently.
Sheng Xiaomo stared at the master closely, but saw that he was gradually clenching his teeth, as if he was enduring something.
"Master, are you okay?"
"Comfortable."
After a while, Yan Dao gradually relaxed, and then said to him: "Xiao Mo, you must not tell anyone about this matter."
Sheng Xiaomo was already smart, so he immediately said: "Master, don't worry, I won't cause trouble for Immortal Zixun."
Yandao nodded and said to Qin Yao: "Zixun, from now on, I will rely on you."
Hearing this, Qin Yao knew that he had grasped Mo Yan's lifeline.
As for whether Yandao will have any bad thoughts due to the power of faith...
Qin Yao felt that if he was tricked by an old man with five degenerates, it would mean that he was not suitable to survive in this reincarnation.
The next day.
Luo Shiyi came to the cave where the seeker was located early in the morning, used his magic power, and said loudly: "Everyone, come out, it's time to go to Sansheng Pond."
As soon as he finished speaking, forty-seven seekers came out one after another. As expected, Hua Qiangu, Ni Mantian, and Dongfang Yuqing were still standing together, forming a small team.
"Aren't the Four Immortals coming to watch today?" Seeing that he was alone, Ni Mantian asked loudly.
Luo Shiyi: "The Four Immortals will watch you through magic in the main hall. Later I will take the disciples who have passed the test of the Three Lives Pool to the main hall to meet them."
Ni Mantian nodded and secretly determined that no matter what the test of Sanshengchi was, he would show his presence among these candidates!
Not long after, Luo Shiyi took them to a garden, stopped in front of a pool of water with three colors of light floating in it, pointed at the water and said:
"Yesterday someone asked me what the test of Sansheng Pond is. Today I will tell you that the water of Sansheng Pond is the spiritual water flowing out of the three major halls. The spiritual water flowing out of the Greed Palace washes away greed. The spiritual water flowing out of the Ecstasy Palace washes away desire.
.The spiritual water flowing out of Jueqing Palace is Juechi. If you cannot abandon greed and obsession, then you will suffer unspeakably after touching the water..."
In the crowd, Hua Qiangu was listening attentively when the master's voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Qiangu, don't say anything when you get into the pool later."
"Master?" Hua Qiangu suddenly raised his head, his face full of confusion.
"What's wrong?" Ni Mantian asked.
Hua Qiangu paused slightly, waved her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Shaoqing, one after another seekers entered the water, most of them had expressions of pain on their faces, some even couldn't bear it at all, and quickly ran ashore amidst the screams, holding their soles and rolling on the ground in pain, People who haven't even gotten into the water are horrified to see it.
"Huh."
Ni Mantian had just taken off his shoes and socks when he saw a man with his long hair pulled back and a rather mature face walking calmly through the Sansheng Pond without any expression on his face.
"Hey, don't you feel any pain?" she asked loudly.
The mature man said calmly: "No."
Ni Mantian was very surprised, but he didn't know what to ask, so he stepped into the water with his bare feet.
In an instant, a sharp pain hit his feet, causing his complexion to change.
Trying to hold back the pain, she was about to turn around to remind her two friends when she saw Hua Qiangu, who had come down with her, even had a smile on his face.
"What are you laughing at?"
Hua Qiangu, who was feeling relaxed and happy, was about to answer when he suddenly remembered his master's message and quickly shook his head and suppressed his smile.
"She doesn't seem to feel any pain at all." In the main hall, looking at the scene presented in the light curtain in front of him, Mo Yan murmured.
Qin Yao said calmly: "The previous candidate named Shuo Feng didn't feel any pain."
In fact, he knew that the water in the Sansheng Pond was very beneficial to Hua Qiangu. Not only would it not hurt, it would actually make her feel comfortable, so he strictly prohibited Hua Qiangu from speaking in the water.
Otherwise, just like in the original work, if she were allowed to shout "It feels so comfortable" in the pool, Mo Yan would be jealous again.
"It's impossible for them not to have any greed and obsession..." Mo Yan said quietly: "The lack of feeling can only prove one thing, that is, they are not human."
As he said that, he subconsciously turned to look at Xia Zixun, but saw that the other person was just staring at the light screen, as if he didn't hear his voice at all.
Bai Zihua was still very respectful to this senior brother and said: "If it is not a human being, the life test stone will detect it..."
Mo Yan nodded, thinking that if it could be discovered that Hua Qiangu was not a human being, the situation would be easier to handle.
"Master, the candidates who have passed the three tests are here." Soon after, Luo Shiyi appeared outside the main hall with more than ten figures, bowed and said.
"Bring them in." Bai Zihua said indifferently.
"Yes." Luo Shiyi responded, leading more than ten people into the main hall.
"Have you investigated everything about your background?"
In the main hall, Bai Zihua, who was sitting on the main seat, asked.
Luo Shiyi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, we have found out everything. All eleven of them are innocent."
"There is one more." At this time, Mo Yan suddenly said.
Luo Shiyi was slightly stunned, obviously not knowing about this.
"There's one more, come in." Mo Yan said.
As soon as he finished speaking, a man wearing a brown gown and a matching-colored turban walked in with his head held high, and even a flamboyant smile on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "Disciple Meng Xuanlang, I would like to pay my respects to the four of you. "
Looking at this energetic young man, Qin Yao subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Mo Yan.
Probably because of the original work, he knew that Meng Xuanlang was the prince of Western Shu and would even become the emperor of Western Shu in the future.
But what he couldn't understand was that even if he was the prince, he was just an ordinary person. Why was he specially recruited?
It would be fine if Mo Yan kept him in the door wall. The key point is that Mo Yan also confiscated him as his disciple.
After thinking about it, there is only one possibility left.
Mo Yan, received some benefits from the Western Shu Kingdom, or wanted to return the favor of the Western Shu Kingdom.
"No need to be polite, just stand in the queue." Bai Zihua said calmly, still indifferent.
"Yes." Meng Xuanlang bowed his hands and saluted, then stood in front of Ni Mantian, at the front of the crowd.
Ni Mantian frowned, a little dissatisfied with this, but in the main hall, in front of the four deities, she endured it...
Later, Bai Zihua, the head of Changliu, personally awarded the palace wood to the disciples except Hua Qiangu. He waved his hand, and a piece of wood with the mark of Changliu appeared on everyone's waist.
"Why don't you have any?" In his joy, Ni Mantian suddenly discovered that Hua Qiangu's waist was empty and couldn't help but ask.
Hua Qiangu explained in a low voice: "Because I am not a Changliu disciple."
Nimantian: "???"
Before she could continue asking, Luo Shiyi sent someone to deliver more than ten life-testing stones and said: "Next, you go and drop blood into the birth-testing stones..."
"What is the life test stone?" Ni Mantian was quickly diverted.
Sheng Xiaomo stood up with a smile and said: "Let me explain. The life test stone can detect whether you are human to prevent evil spirits from entering Changliu. At the same time, if you are in danger, the life test stone will also flash a warning. In this way, The master might as well send someone to rescue him."
"It's amazing." Hua Qiangu said with emotion.
"Qiangu, come here." At this time, Qin Yao suddenly waved and said, "You don't need to drop blood for a test."
Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted.
Hua Qiangu doesn’t need to take a physical exam, she’s not a Changliu disciple...
"Yes, Master." Hua Qiangu felt a little regretful, looked at the life test stone reluctantly, and strode to Qin Yao's side.
Afterwards, the remaining eleven people passed the life test stone one after another. Mo Yan turned around and said: "Junior Brother Head, it's time for you to have a direct disciple. How about you choose from them?"
Bai Zihua glanced at everyone and said thoughtfully: "In half a month, the Changliu Immortal Sword Tournament will be held. If anyone can win the first place in the Immortal Sword Tournament, I will accept him as my disciple."
Hearing this, Ni Mantian's eyes suddenly lit up, and while his heart was full of excitement, he was determined to win this spot.
She always wants to be strong, even if she is someone's disciple, she must be the disciple of the strongest person so that others can respect her!
"Thousand Bones, Thousand Bones..."
Shao Qing and Bai Zihua announced the end of the show. When Qin Yao walked out of the main hall with Hua Qiangu, calls suddenly came from behind him.
The master and the disciple followed the sound together, but saw Ni Mantian running all the way, coming to where they were approaching, and quickly bowed and saluted: "Meet the Immortal Zixun."
Qin Yao nodded slightly and said: "You guys talk...Qiangu, I'll wait for you in the ancient palace."
"Master, I still don't know how to fly with a sword." Hua Qiangu said hurriedly.
Qin Yao smiled and said: "I believe you can practice it. By the way, give me the magic sword."
Hua Qiangu really didn't have much confidence in herself, but she didn't dare to talk back: "Yes, Master."
"Qiangu, your master treats you well." Ni Mantian said with a smile after watching Qin Yao fly away.
Hua Qiangu suddenly laughed: "Master is my great benefactor."
Ni Mantian: "Benefactor?"
Hua Qiangu simply explained: "Master once saved my life."
"I see." Ni Mantian didn't care much about this, and said enthusiastically: "Let me tell you, I am determined to be the first disciple."
Hua Qiangu: "Ah? That must be difficult, right?"
"No matter how difficult it is, I will face it." Ni Mantian clenched his hands: "If you don't do it, it's enough. If you do, I will be the best."
Hua Qiangu held her palm and said with a smile: "I support you."
Ni Mantian suddenly laughed and said: "Of course you have to support me, we are good sisters who share the same hardships."
On Xuankong Mountain, Qin Yao raised his lips slightly when he heard this sentence with his ears raised.
very good.
Keep this relationship going.
Isn't it better to love sisters and make progress together than to turn against each other and kill each other?
If nothing else goes wrong, as long as he doesn't interfere, Ni Mantian will definitely not be able to become the head disciple.
But when she, who is arrogant and strives to be the best, is teased by fate and becomes the eleventh disciple, she can gain his gratitude by accepting him as her disciple.
This gratitude is enough to transform this pretty girl who is not bad in nature...
