The assessment for the Sword Cauldron Sect is very simple. You only need to walk around the mountain road from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain to pass the assessment. Although it seems simple, on the top of the mountain thousands of meters high, the mountain roads are rugged and winding. Thousands of mortals How many people can reach the top of a mountain over a thousand meters? It is difficult even for adults, let alone teenagers under the age of twelve.
Lei Gang slowly walked along the rugged mountain road full of fighting spirit. Many teenagers were running along the mountain road excitedly, but Lei Gang moved forward slowly step by step. Lei Gang understood that this The mountain peak is thousands of meters high. This is just the beginning. If all the energy is spent here, then it is impossible to reach the top of the mountain. Lei Gang scanned the surroundings and found that there were also many young people who were not running wildly, but just footprints. Moving forward one step at a time.
What surprised Lei Gang slightly was that there was a young man wearing white cloth next to him. His eyes were like stars and his face was plain. What made Lei Gang pay attention was that he actually felt a sense of spring breeze from this young man. Being so close to him, I felt as if the hot air around me was cooling down a bit.
The young man seemed to feel Lei Gang's gaze, and looked at Lei Gang with flat eyes. When he saw the scars under Lei Gang's back, a trace of surprise flashed in the young man's eyes, and then he smiled slightly and nodded gently.
Lei Gang grinned and said: "My name is Lei Gang. I am eleven and a half years old this year. How about you?" With his dark skin and snow-white teeth, Lei Gang gives people a sense of simplicity, simplicity, and without any scheming. A lot of people like it.
"Hello, my name is Dao Tu! I am eleven years old." The young man smiled warmly, as if the rising sun gave people an extremely gentle and friendly feeling.
Lei Gang was stunned for a moment, the smile on his face stopped abruptly, and he stared blankly at the young man with a gentle smile on his face. He seemed to be surprised by the difference between the name and himself.
The young Dao Tu looked at Lei Gang's face, a trace of self-mockery appeared on his face, then he stopped looking at Lei Gang and walked forward.
Lei Gang looked at the back of Dao Tu as he walked forward. The gentle young man just now gave Lei Gang a feeling of loneliness. Not only did Lei Gang think of himself under the waterfall for a year, he felt a little sad in his heart, but he also felt a sense of loneliness. Feeling guilty, he quickly quickened his pace and caught up with Dao Tu. He looked at Dao Tu with an apologetic face and said, "I'm sorry, I was just a little surprised when I heard your name, nothing else!"
The young Dao Tu turned his head and looked at Lei Gang, a slight smile flashed across his face, nodded towards Lei Gang, and continued without saying a word. Lei Gang was stunned for a moment, and clearly felt the smile on Dao Tu's face. His smile was not as innocent as before. He sighed in his heart and followed Dao Tu's footsteps.
Until dusk, Dao Tu didn't say a word. After Lei Gang said a few words, Dao Tu just nodded slightly. Lei Gang felt Dao Tu's slight coldness and didn't say a word. The atmosphere between the two was slightly tense. solidification.
Although Dao Tu and Lei Gang had been walking on the rugged mountain road for almost an afternoon, their breathing had become heavier. Dao Tu's forehead was already slightly sweaty, but Lei Gang's breathing had accelerated slightly, and his face was still dark. After sitting cross-legged under the waterfall for a year, Lei Gang's physique has surpassed that of his peers.
There were already many young people sitting on both sides of the originally narrow mountain road. They were all out of breath and sweating profusely. Among them, there were many young people who ran as soon as they set foot on the mountain road.
Lei Gang and Dao Tu did not stop to rest, but continued to move forward slowly and unhurriedly. This made the teenagers who were gradually losing their physical strength jealous, and secretly hated their own impulsiveness just now.
As evening approached, Dao Tu was also a little tired, so he sat down cross-legged under a big tree on the mountain road. After Lei Gang hesitated for a while, he sat down next to Dao Tu. To Lei Gang's slight disappointment, Dao Tu sat down.
After that, he closed his eyes and went into recovery.
Lei Gang, who had nothing to do for a moment, looked at the top of the mountain above his head, which still had no peak. He knew that the journey was still far away, and there were even loud voices in front of him. Lei Gang sighed secretly, it seems that people with good physical strength
No longer a minority.
The sun slowly set, and the sky gradually fell into a short period of darkness. The moonlight cast a silvery light above the starry sky, adding a bit of light to the night. Looking at the twinkling starry sky, Lei Gang was filled with melancholy in his heart.
No matter what, he must stay at Jiandingmen and wait for his brother to come find him! Lei Gang made up his mind.
Gradually, Lei Gang entered the dream fragrance. In the dream, Lei Gang dreamed that he successfully entered the Jian Ding Sect and became a disciple of the Jian Ding Sect. Not long after, his brother came to him on the colorful fairy clouds.
.
Lei Gang didn't know that when he fell into a deep sleep, Dao Tu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the sleeping Lei Gang with a smile on his lips. A glimmer of light flashed in Dao Tu's eyes, and then he glanced at the starry sky.
I closed my eyes again.
In the dark night, most of the teenagers fell into a deep sleep, and their whole bodies were exhausted from walking all afternoon.
In the silence of the night, only the even breathing was heard, and a few black shadows flew down from the top of the mountain along the mountain road with swords, looking at the sleeping young man one by one. Sometimes he shook his head, sometimes his eyes bloomed with light.
When a black shadow flew over Lei Gang and Dao Tu, the shadow's eyes were fixed on Dao Tu, who was sleeping cross-legged, with a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes. However, towards Lei Gang, he just glanced slightly,
Without taking another look, the black shadow seemed to have achieved its purpose of coming here, and directly took off with its sword and flew into the sky without a trace.
When a gleam of light gradually emerged in the silent night, many young people who had accumulated strength ate some of the dry food they had brought and continued moving forward.
When Lei Gang woke up, the sky had already entered dawn, and Dao Tu had already woken up, sitting under the tree and looking up at the stars, not knowing what to think. After Lei Gang woke up, Dao Tu smiled gently at Lei Gang.
Lei Gang nodded slightly apologetically, then took out two pieces of sesame cake from the package on his back and handed one to Dao Tu. Dao Tu took it, nodded slightly gratefully, and started to nibble on it carefully.
After filling their stomachs, the two of them headed towards the mountain road again. Many teenagers were already following behind them. This time, the teenagers did not run like they did yesterday afternoon, but moved forward step by step. Obviously, they got what they had learned yesterday.
Afternoon lesson.
The slightly cool wind blowing by in the summer morning was refreshing, and the pace of the two of them not only accelerated a little faster.
"Where did you get the scars on your body?" Dao Tu asked slowly after leaving not long ago. Obviously, Lei Gang's simplicity and kindness just now made Dao Tu feel good about him.
Lei Gang glanced at Dao Tu, his eyes sank slightly, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he said a little embarrassedly: "It's okay not to mention it."
Dao Tu turned his head and his eyes were very dull, but a hint of contemplation flashed through Dao Tu's dull eyes.
As the sun rises, the temperature gradually increases. As the afternoon approaches, Dao Tu is already a little tired, his forehead is covered with fine sweat, his face is slightly red, and Lei Gang's forehead is covered with fine sweat.
, his breathing was slightly rapid, and there was no trace of fatigue on his face. Looking at Dao Tu, who was breathing rapidly, Lei Gang looked at the uncle in front of him and said: "Let's rest for a while to fill our stomachs!"
Dao Tu glanced at Lei Gang, a hint of gratitude flashed in his eyes, nodded, and walked towards the tree.
Under the big tree, there was already a cold-blooded young man sitting there cross-legged with sweat on his face. When he saw Lei Gang and Dao Tu approaching, a flash of hostility flashed in his eyes.
Dao Tu walked under the tree, looked at the cold young man in surprise, and then sat down. Lei Gang also looked at the cold young man and sat down. Then, Lei Gang took out two pieces of dry food from the bag.
, handed Dao Tu a piece, and started to chew it carefully.
This cold young man looked forward and felt Lei Gang and Dao Tu eating. He swallowed and his stomach rumbled a few times. A look of embarrassment flashed across his cold face.
.
Lei Gang glanced at the cold young man, then took out a piece of dry food from the bag, handed it to the cold young man and said, "Are you hungry?"
Unexpectedly, the cold young man didn't buy Lei Gang's blame. He glanced at Lei Gang coldly, snorted coldly, stood up, and walked forward. Lei Gang was stunned for a moment, and then put the dry food back into his bag.
After nibbling, Dao Tu's lips turned slightly white. It was obvious that his mouth was dry, but he couldn't say anything. Lei Gang smiled slightly, took out a gourd from the bag and handed it to Dao Tu.
Dao Tu nodded gratefully and took a small bite from the gourd. After the two rested for a while, they started moving forward again.
After eating, Dao Tu obviously recovered a lot of strength, but he did not speed up. The two of them didn't walk for long when they discovered that the cold young man in front of them was actually holding a hare and roasting it on the fire, which was even more interesting.
A lot of fragrance floated among the mountain roads. Seeing the figures of Lei Gang and Dao Tu, the cold young man snorted coldly and stared at his rabbit.
When Lei Gang and Dao Tu passed by the cold boy, they both looked at the black rabbit that was roasted on the fire but smelled like meat. They swallowed their saliva at the same time. In the past two days, the two of them had either eaten sesame cakes or dry food.
When I saw such a barbecue in front of me, how could I not be a little greedy? But the two of them did not stop, but continued to move forward.
The cold young man glanced at the backs of the two of them, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Two days later, this was already the third day of the five-day period. Lei Gang and Dao Tu had climbed two-thirds of the mountain. The mountain road became confusing, and clouds and mist enveloped the entire mountain.
Dao Tu was panting, his face turned pale, and he was breathing hard. He was obviously not used to breathing at high altitudes, but Lei Gang was slightly better. There were not many people who could hold on here. Some were exhausted, and some had already eaten their dry food, so they had to
I have no choice but to go down the mountain. If I want to climb up the Jianding Peak, it is simply impossible without the support of strong physical strength.
"Huh...huh..." Dao Tu's breathing became faster and faster, his steps became slower and slower, and his face turned blue, but he gritted his teeth and persisted.
"Dao Tu, are you okay? Let's take a rest first." Lei Gang supported Dao Tu's slightly trembling body and asked worriedly. Over the past few days, the two of them have formed a tacit understanding.
"It's okay... we don't have much time." Dao Tu gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, but he stepped on the air, tilted his head, and fell forward. Lei Gang quickly hugged Dao Tu, with a trace of worry in his eyes. Under a big tree, Dao Tu was carefully placed. Lei Gang hurriedly pulled off a piece of cloth from his body, wet it with the little water left in the gourd, and placed it on Dao Tu's forehead.
At this time, several young men with tired faces walked up the mountain road. However, they just glanced at Lei Gang and Dao Tu lying on the ground, and did not stop. They continued to walk forward.
Lei Gang looked at the young men in front of him and sighed slightly in his heart.
At this time, the cold young man also slowly walked up. After looking at Lei Gang and Dao Tu, a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "He is suffering from peak reaction." After saying that, he walked forward again, as if Feeling the strange light of Lei Gang, the cold young man stopped again and said slowly: "You must need treatment or go down the mountain, otherwise you will not survive for two days. At this time, even if you go down the mountain, it will be impossible to reach it in two days. There is only one way now, that is Hurry up to the top of the mountain and seek help from the Taoist priests! However, the mountain road is still long. If you carry him on your back, you will not be able to reach it as scheduled. It is better to give up on him." After saying that, the cold young man never looked back and walked forward. .
Lei Gang glanced at the cold young man gratefully. Although the young man did not help much, he was much better than the few young men who just ignored him. Lei Gang looked down at Dao Tu, who was sweating profusely and his face was blue, with a flash in his eyes. Guosi was determined, carrying Dao Tu on his back, and ran towards the mountain road.
Soon, Lei Gang caught up with the cold boy, nodded to the cold boy, and ran again.
The cold young man stared blankly at Lei Gang who was running wildly with Dao Tu on his back, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, and then he shook his head and continued to move forward.
Lei Gang was very fast. Although he was carrying Dao Tu on his back, he soon caught up with those indifferent teenagers. Seeing Lei Gang running wildly with Dao Tu on his back, the teenagers sneered with disdain and ignored them. Move forward slowly again.
As dusk approached, Lei Gang felt a little exhausted. He put down his sword gently, and then he sat down cross-legged, meditating, concentrating, and entering a blank world to recover his lost physical strength. Half an hour later, Lei Gang opened his eyes again, the fatigue on his face dissipated slightly, and he once again picked up the knife and Tu and ran wildly.
Deep in the Jianding Sect, an old man in white opened his eyes and looked at Jianding Peak, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
And in the subversion of Sword Cauldron Peak, an elegant middle-aged man in black looked down, with a ray of light flashing in his eyes. His eyes were slightly thoughtful.
Lei Gang ran over and over again, constantly running, and constantly recovering his body. As night approached, Lei Gang realized that his whole body was extremely tired. He still couldn't see the peak of the mountain. A trace of anxiety flashed in Lei Gang's eyes, and he placed the knife. After the slaughter, he fell into a deep sleep.
Not long after Lei Gang fell asleep, a black shadow flew down from the top of the mountain and came to Dao Tu. A light flashed in his eyes. He took out a pill as big as his little finger from his arms and put it into Dao Tu's mouth. After looking at Lei Gang, a sigh flashed through his eyes, then he took off again and disappeared into the moonlight.
