I saw the Changju sect master take a step back, the clouds moved to the left side of the mountain gate, and a man from Jiedan Master came out and spoke kindly: "I am Wuwei, the master of the Qixianfeng Knowledge Hall.
For the first three months of the new disciples' stay, men and women will live separately in the east and west houses of the Mortal Valley. After you enter the gate, go through the exclusive passage and find your own place before sunrise tomorrow.
You can travel alone or in a team.
However, all of you who join Taiyi Sect are brothers and sisters. Unless you withdraw voluntarily, if one of you fails to pass the test, you will be arranged to try again."
"What?" There was a buzz, and almost everyone couldn't help asking if they heard it wrong.
There are at least 8,000 disciples in this field. There is a high chance of falling behind, okay?
Shen Guanyu could hear the breathing sounds of the disciples around him.
"Haha!" Master Wuwei seemed to be used to this situation. He smiled and lightly touched the painted flowing cloud pattern tambourine on his hand with his finger.
Dong-dong-dong, three drums sounded, like explosions in the ears of Shen Guanyu and all the disciples, and the square immediately fell silent.
Just listen to Master Wuwei's words: "Now, using today as the twenty-eighth day of June as the boundary, the young disciples who are five, six, seven or eight years old will stay, and the other disciples will enter from the main entrance in sequence."
Little dolls have little doll trials.
…
On the mountain road, the chirping of cicadas and birds can be heard everywhere, and many masters of Jiedan, hidden in various clouds, are sitting or standing, looking at the disciples walking among them.
Shen Guanyu and the others walked from entering the mountain gate at 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. The sun was rising higher and higher, and Zhui Feng felt uncomfortable in the package and screamed several times.
She fed Zhui Feng some water, took a sip herself, and handed the water bag to Chi Ai.
This Jueling Mountain Road is not isolated from the four-season temperature outside. Not only does it get steeper as you go, it is also narrower.
The three of them brought two water bags, and Tang Yue's was given to Cao Jindao and Zhang Jun who were catching up from the rear team an hour ago.
Many disciples spontaneously formed groups in twos and threes and moved forward.
Shen Guanyu watched as the people passing by became more and more tired as they walked, and some even sat down on the stone steps to catch their breath.
"We have walked for so long, it should be almost fifty miles, right?" She calculated based on walking ten miles in one hour.
Cao Jindao put his sword on the ground, pulled up his collar and said, "No, it's more than eighty miles away. We monks are constantly being washed away by spiritual power, so we can walk faster than ordinary people."
"There is gravity." Zhang Jun's words were concise and to the point. He had tried it, and he could not fly even half a foot using conventional light skills, let alone a few feet.
The five people looked at each other, and everyone sighed at the same time. Let's continue walking. Fortunately, there was no illusion on the road.
"Ahhh, snake!" A little girl in a pink dress jumped up on the stone steps.
Zhang Jun, who was nearest, rushed forward, and then...
Shen Guanyu saw the hemp rope on the tip of his sword.
The little girl suddenly stopped screaming, turned around and ran down the stone steps. Her long skirt tripped her several times and she shouted: I don't want to be a fairy anymore, I want to go back.
The disciples on this section of the road stopped one after another. Currently, this is the first one to turn back.
Chi Ai pulled Shen Guanyu: "Sister Xiaoyu, let's go help her! If we leave like this, she will regret it in the future."
"Don't go!" Tang Yue blocked them and said, "If she gives up like this, it means she can't bear the hardship of being a monk.
You helped her once, can you help her a second time?"
Cao Jindao also said: "In the future, when we form a team to take on missions, no one can protect the other at all times."
Chi Ai glanced at Zhang Jun, who was the first to take action, and saw that he also shook his head and lowered his head in despair. She knew that among the five people, she was the one holding back.
Originally she was eight years old, but her parents celebrated her birthday on the fourth day of June, and now she is nine years old again.
Shen Guanyu patted her and said, "Chi Ai, look below."
Chi Ai helped Shen Guanyu give her the glasses that were fixed with a twist of wire. After more than ten steps, the girl in pink wiped her tears while climbing up.
The other disciples stopped looking and continued to rush on their way.
When she arrived in front of them, the little girl wiped away her tears and said to Zhang Jun: "Thank you just now."
Zhang Jun nodded and accepted.
The girl in pink clothes was slightly startled, then looked at Shen Guanyu and the other three girls and said, "Can you take me with you?"
Tang Yue looked at her. This girl was different from Chi Ai, who was also a mortal. What were the specific differences?
She looked into her eyes and suddenly understood that there was something she disliked most in this girl's eyes, a little calculation.
Chi Ai looked at his teammates, afraid to make a decision.
Mr. Shen Guanyu, how could he see the little girl's flattering and cautious attitude? He thought for a moment and said, "We don't want to be left behind by our teammates in the future."
The girl in pink shook her head vigorously several times, "No, if I can't become a fairy, my mother-in-law will be imprisoned in the cold palace again."
She sounds like a very filial little princess.
After several people looked at each other and nodded, Cao Jindao said: "I am Cao Jindao, the temporary captain."
"Zhang Jun."
"Tang Yue."
"Shen Guanyu."
"Chi Ai."
The girl in pink clothes bit her dry lips and said, "My name is Huangfu Chaoyan, I am twelve years old, and I am the fifteenth daughter of the emperor of a mortal country." She paused too long between the words Huangfu and Chaoyan.
"The name is very nice!" Chi Ai first praised.
However, Shen Guanyu glanced at Huangfu Chaoyan a few more times.
The beauty of the court is like a morning glory, and it can survive almost anywhere you throw it. It is a princess but it is only said that it is the fifteenth daughter of the emperor. This hidden statement is really convoluted.
The little girl has messy hair, dark marks on her face, is thin and pale, and has some frost marks on her hands. She looks beautiful but impractical in her dress. She said: "I will call you Chaoyan from now on. You can just call me Chaoyan." Just call me Xiaoyu."
Facing someone who is smaller than herself, she couldn't call her sister: "Your skirt is too long and has many layers. If you don't mind, I can help you cut off the excess."
Tang Yue raised his eyebrows secretly, then looked at Chi Ai secretly, and thought to himself: Xiaoyu is very soft-hearted.
"Ah, this! The skirt is a gift from the Queen, I dare not touch it." In fact, Huangfu Chaoyan didn't want to wear it either.
Chi Ai was puzzled: "You will be a monk from now on. Why are you afraid of what she will do?"
Huangfu Chaoyan's delicate face was filled with a bitter smile: "I'm not afraid of her, but my mother-in-law has to rely on her to survive. Even if I become powerful in the future, I can't help my current mother-in-law.
Moreover, she sent a female guard who was a congenital expert to escort me along the way. When I got off the boat, I heard that the sect had distributed clothes, so I only changed into these clothes.
I said that when I go back to the palace to visit my relatives in the future, I will definitely be very happy if I go back wearing this outfit."
Palace fighting is so tiring!
Shen Guanyu was glad that she was a monk. He took out his sewing bag and said, "I'll sew it for you a few times and then take it apart later."
"Yeah!" Huangfu hurriedly lifted up his skirt toward Chaoyan.
Chi Ai handed over the water: "Drink."
"You can drink water. It won't affect my work." Shen Guanyu is very skilled at folding and sewing the skirt tail. She once watched a master restore an ancient pleated piece in a handmade silk weaving workshop. Skirt, stay put for up to two months.
"Senior Sister Xiaoyu, it looks like this." Chi Ai stepped forward and turned around.
Cao Jindao and Zhang Jun turned around and saw that there was indeed no trace of the long skirt. He waved and said, "Let's set off. We've finished walking the Baili Mountain Road, and there's still one more hurdle to go."
"Charge the duck!" Shen Guanyu clenched his fist and caught up.
"Come on!" Tang Yue and Chi Ai also chased.
Huangfu Chaoyan, who was a little confused, immediately ran after him.
With only a dozen miles left, they ran for an hour. As a result, the mountain road was finished, but there was a raging and wide river in front of them.
On the bank of the river, the disciples who ran first were sitting or lying down, while others went to the bamboo forest in the distance to chop bamboo.
Shen Guanyu slid the barrel of the gun with his left hand and touched the small mountaineering knife with his right hand. Neither of these were sharp tools for cutting bamboo.
No, you can learn to practice swordsmanship when you go out in the future, with a sword behind your back.
While she was thinking this, Cao Jindao and Zhang Jun were already running to chop bamboo with their swords in hand.
The four of Shen Guanyu followed, and when they arrived at the edge of the forest, they saw a wooden sign that read: Cut one type of ten, and it will be completed within a month.
Sure enough, there is no such thing as free bamboo.
Fortunately, she was carrying a coiled rope, so the knife in her hand could not cut bamboo, but it could cut off bamboo branches and cut the rope to make a bamboo raft.
