Looking at the scene in front of her, Lin Che froze on the spot.
I saw that the mountains ahead had sparse vegetation and rugged rocks. Although they could be called mountains, they looked extremely barren, with bare soil everywhere.
barren!
Now, this is the most intuitive feeling in Lin Che's heart.
"It's probably not easy to find such a 'deadline' in this area. What are the senior officials in the Sixiang Courtyard thinking?"
Lin Che was speechless for a while, especially when she saw the beautiful bells, bells, and glazings of the Suzaku Palace and the picturesque scenery.
Seeing the scene in front of me again, the huge sense of gap is really hard to accept.
But fortunately, Lin Che is not a person who just wants to enjoy herself.
He had heard before that all new disciples had to live in Yishan temporarily, so he didn't think much about it.
Just as Lin Che was thinking about this, a sound broke through the air in the distance, and then an old man's figure appeared here.
The old man's beard and hair are all white, and his back is a bit stooped. He must be quite old.
He was wearing the clothes of an elder, but he looked a little unkempt.
The aura exuding from his body was much weaker than that of Shangguan Xiong that Lin Che had seen before.
"Haha, it turns out that the fairy from Zhuque Palace is coming to see you. I'm sorry that I didn't welcome you from afar."
After the old man arrived here, he just glanced at Lin Che and then turned his gaze to the maid from the Suzaku Palace aside, with a warm smile on his face.
This made Lin Che a little surprised.
This old man is obviously the elder of the Four Elephants Palace. If he meets the disciples of the Shrine, it would be reasonable to be so polite.
But even when I met a maid in the Suzaku Palace, she was so kind.
Isn’t that too strange?
In fact, Lin Che later learned that although this old man was an elder, he had the most unpromising position among the elders in the courtyard because he was guarding the mountain.
Therefore, when you see someone from the four major palaces, even if it is just a maid, you have to be careful.
If it were other elders in the courtyard, they would never be as cautious as him.
"Elder Qi is too polite..."
The maid from the Suzaku Palace gave a slight salute to the old man, and then said: "The Master Lin next to me is also one of the new disciples this time. The Lord of the Palace specially asked me to send him to Yishan. Next,
I’ll have to worry about Elder Qi for a while.”
Elder Qi's expression changed and he quickly said: "Since it is the palace master's order, I will not dare to neglect it!"
"Elder Qi misunderstood..."
When the maid saw the other party's expression, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Palace Master has told me that although Mr. Lin is sent here from the Suzaku Palace, he does not need any special care. Everything should be as usual."
"this……"
Elder Qi was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Lin Che.
Here, being able to get personal inquiries from a big shot like the Master of the Palace of Suzaku, how can he be considered an ordinary person?
But now this son has been sent to the mountain without any care. This is too strange.
However, Elder Qi had difficulty understanding the deeper meaning. He could only nod his head and said: "I understand."
"Okay, in that case, Elder Qi, Young Master Lin, and the maid will take their leave now..." After the maid said this, she turned around and left.
At this time, Elder Qi glanced at Lin Che again, hesitated slightly, and then said: "Come with me."
Lin Che nodded and followed behind the old man.
It is worth mentioning that as the two of them walked along, they saw many onlookers.
There are hundreds of these people, and judging from their clothes, they should all be disciples in the academy.
"Look, another new student is about to enter Yishan!"
"Really, looking at this kid's age, he seems to be a little younger than the previous freshmen... Hehe, I don't know how long it will take for this guy to adapt to life in Yishan?"
After Lin Che appeared in the sight of these people, there was a burst of discussion.
Moreover, everyone craned their necks for fear of missing something. Everyone's eyes wanted to look at Lin Che from head to toe.
"What is going on?" Faced with this scene, Lin Che couldn't help but frown slightly.
Originally, he thought that these people gathered here out of enthusiasm to welcome the new junior brothers.
But after a little observation, I found that this was not the case at all.
Because it can be seen from their faces that these people are obviously watching the fun, and many people even showed a faint sense of gloating in their expressions when they saw him.
It feels like looking at a rare monkey.
"Elder Qi, what are these disciples gathering near Yishan Mountain looking at?"
Elder Qi grinned and said, "Well... of course I'm looking at you new disciples."
"I know, but what do we, the new disciples, have to see?"
"Haha..." Elder Qi shook his head slightly, with a meaningful smile appearing on his face.
He did not answer directly, but just said: "In a few days, maybe you will understand..."
"Uh..." Lin Che was stunned for a moment.
But since the other party answered like this, he didn't ask further.
After a while, the two people entered the Yishan area, and those sounds gradually disappeared.
Elder Qi took Lin Che to an open space.
At this time, many people had gathered in the open space, all of whom were freshmen who had passed this examination.
After they saw Lin Che, their eyes all showed awe.
This is not surprising.
Having witnessed the turmoil during the assessment with their own eyes, each of them had an extremely deep impression on Lin Che.
It was determined that Lin Che had an extremely deep background in the Four Symbols Palace and was a character that could never be easily provoked.
After arriving here, Elder Qi winked at Lin Che.
Lin Che understood and walked into the crowd.
At this time, Elder Qi said: "Everyone present, first of all, congratulations on passing the examination and becoming a disciple of Sixiangyuan... But according to the rules of Sixiangyuan, every new disciple must undergo training in the service mountain in the first year.
.”
"What, a year!"
As soon as Elder Qi finished speaking, the expressions of everyone present suddenly changed.
When these new disciples came here, they naturally noticed the environment around Mount Yong.
Here, it can be said to be desolate and barren to the extreme.
They originally thought they were just staying here temporarily, but they never imagined that they would spend the next year here!
"We finally passed the exam, but in the end we have to live in this ungrateful place for a year. What kind of rules is this!"
After hearing the news, many people immediately started talking and seemed excited.
Even Lin Che couldn't help but frown slightly when she heard the news.
He had promised the Master of the Suzaku Palace that he would become the first in the Four Elephant Courtyard Competition within three years, but as a result, he had to waste a year here.
This was something he never expected.
"snort!"
However, just as everyone was discussing and expressing their dissatisfaction, Elder Qi snorted coldly.
"All new disciples live temporarily in Yishan. This has always been the rule of Sixiang Academy. Not to mention you, even the top geniuses in the academy came here this way..."
"If anyone feels that it is unacceptable, you can withdraw now...but if you withdraw, you will lose your status as a disciple of Sixiangyuan."
