I will bury the gods

Chapter 126 300 Years No.1

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

The middle-aged man's words were slightly cold, with some anger.Although these books are introductory books for cultivation, they are all written by sages, how can they be arrogantly despised by a young man.

The eyes of the rest of the people looking at him also changed. They were astonished at Lin Shouxi's arrogance, and they only thought that this person was either a peerless genius, or a stupid lunatic who had never seen the world outside the wall.

"I know."

Lin Shouxi didn't explain too much, and walked straight into the depths of the wooden hall.

Bai Zhu had great confidence in him, and sat on the cloud conch to cheer him on, but Mu Shijing shook his head in disdain, and only said two cold words between his lips:

"Really pretend."

Lin Shouxi's back quickly disappeared into the corner separated by the wooden boards.He followed his disciples through a willow garden and came to the examination room to answer questions.Each person has a pressing stone in front of each paper. In addition to the role of fixing the paper, it can also detect the flow of true energy. Once the examinee uses the spirit root or true energy, the stone will make a warning sound.

The bell rang, and the middle-aged man lit a stick of incense.

Lin Shouxi sat in his seat, calmly looking at the examination paper in front of him.There are a total of 59 questions on the paper, which are of various types and include thousands of items. Lin Shouxi glanced over the paper, his face was not sad, but he didn't know why he didn't start writing.

The middle-aged man paid close attention to him. Seeing that his gaze swept over every question, but he hesitated to write, he couldn't help shaking his head. He felt that this disciple was a person with outstanding talent. The character of mind, arrogance and complacency is always a disease, if it is not corrected, there will be endless troubles.And let this be his first lesson.

700 years ago, human cultivators were in an era of vigorous development. Due to excessive martial arts, there were countless vicious demons. Their damage to human beings was even far greater than that of evil spirits and dragon corpses. one of the important considerations.

The middle-aged man was about to turn his gaze away when Lin Shouxi finally picked up his pen, dipped in the ink and swiped the brush. He wrote quickly, as if he didn't think about it, and he seemed to have a plan in mind.

He finished writing the paper, got up and left without looking at it again.

The incense hadn't been burned for a long time, and even the first ashes hadn't fallen, and the average disciple could only complete the fifth question.

He was the last one to arrive, and the seat was also arranged at the end, so when he walked, he would pass by everyone's desks, and the disciples looked up one after another, wondering if he had handed in a blank paper.

"Where are you going? The exit is over there." The middle-aged man stopped him again.

"There are only 59 questions on this paper, and there is one question short. Shouldn't I do the last question?" Lin Shouxi asked.

The middle-aged man took a deep look at him, finally lowered his hands, and said, "Go."

Lin Shouxi left the examination room and came to the next courtyard. The disciples in the front row were so shocked that they didn't even notice the dripping of ink, because from their perspective, Lin Shouxi almost disappeared through the wall... Could it be that, Is this wall just a blindfold?The last question is hidden behind the wall?How did he see through it at a glance?

Lin Shouxi came behind the wall.

There was indeed a hidden hole behind the wall. It was a road leading to the forest at the foot of the mountain. There was a sign beside the road, telling him that the final examination room was just ahead.

On the way to the examination room, there is a ruined temple with no incense.Lin Shouxi walked into the temple along the way.

In late autumn, the temple was covered with thick leaves. A skinny old man in his dying years was sweeping the ground with a broom. He bent over and swept the thick and withered broad leaves aside.

Lin Shouxi walked into the temple courtyard and quietly watched the old man sweep the fallen leaves.

He didn't understand the true meaning from the withered leaves or the old man's bright head and pale face. He just stood there and waited. Wipe the sweat off your brow.

Then, behind Lin Shouxi came the sound of beating bowls and chopsticks. He turned his head and found an old man with withered hair and missing teeth standing outside the door. The old man had a withered complexion and a hungry stomach, as if he was begging.

"I have no money." Lin Shouxi said.

The old man seemed to be dumb, and he yelled a few times, not knowing what to say, looking extremely pitiful.

"Do I have to pay to take the next exam?" Lin Shouxi asked seriously.

The mute showed a puzzled look.

"If you donate a few copper coins to help him sweep a fallen leaf, it would be considered kind-hearted, but it would be too simple." Lin Shouxi said.

When he was a child, he also heard a pair of brothers learn art from a teacher. On the way to school, he met a beggar. The strong elder brother dismissed the beggar, while the thin younger brother gave him a copper coin. After going up the mountain, they were surprised to find the beggar. It turned out to be the head of the sect, and in the end the younger brother was admitted, and the older brother regretted going down the mountain.

Lin Shouxi thought this story was nonsense when he was a child, but they didn't expect that Yunkong Mountain would follow it as a standard and actually implement it.

"You may not be a good person if you do it, but if you are not willing to do this, you must not be a good person." The old man sweeping the floor was spotted and angrily put down his broom.

"But if I do it knowingly, isn't it hypocrisy?" Lin Shouxi asked.

He didn't pretend to be ignorant and did such false good deeds. He felt that he was at least sincere.

Another old man pretending to be dumb was more pragmatic. He knocked on the bowl and asked, "You...really have no money?"

"No."

"I think you look like a foreigner in your attire. You have no money, so how did you come all the way to Yunkong Mountain?"

"I spent my sister's money." Lin Shouxi said frankly.

Without Mu Shijing by his side, he was doomed to sleep in the open all the way.

"Well, it turns out that he is still a softie." The old man was indignant.

Lin Shouxi was delayed here for a long time, and there were other candidates in the examination room who had finished the questions. Lin Shouxi looked back and found that the first person who came was the little girl who had hit on him earlier.

The little girl was also very pleasantly surprised when she saw Lin Shouxi. She was wearing a pear-colored top and ran quickly with a pink underskirt. The girl covered the wound on her forehead with her hands, and greeted Lin Shouxi cautiously.

"Hello……"

"Hello." Lin Shouxi also said.

The little girl was very cautious, she didn't dare to look at Lin Shouxi's face, and she didn't even dare to get too close. Lin Shouxi thought about her previous conversation with Mu Shijing, and took the initiative to say:
"Your name is... Shuang Sisi?"

"um, yes."

Shuang Sisi was surprised and delighted, unexpectedly he secretly remembered her name, it seems that the elder sister was right, "My name is Shuang Sisi, so everyone calls me..."

"Sisi?"

"Hmm... Shuangshuang."

"..."

The two fell silent at the same time.

"They are..." Shuang Sisi felt pity when she saw the sweepers and beggars in the ruined temple.

The two old men looked at each other, and they didn't bother to put on any more. They brushed off the dust on their clothes, changed their posture, and put their hands behind their backs.Then, the two old men with the same movements and figures shattered at the same time, turning into two balls of flying sand, dancing around in the air and then merging into one.

Shuang Sisi, who was still digging out her pink purse, was shocked when she saw this situation, and felt that the immortal was worthy of being an immortal, and that she could turn her body into sand and split it into two.

"Let's go, follow me to the final test." The old man stroked his white beard and walked forward.

On the way, Shuang Sisi asked Lin Shouxi for advice on how to cross the wall. She was already the fastest among the others, but she still broke her forehead.

"There is no skill. In my eyes, it is not a wall, but a door, so I walked through it naturally." Lin Shouxi said.

"Forget that a wall is a wall... You can see through the appearance at a glance and get to the truth, Mr. Lin must have a pure heart." Shuang Sisi clasped her ten fingers in front of her body, showing admiration.

"……Maybe."

"I knew you were very powerful, unlike me, your head is almost broken." Shuang Sisi also came in out of nowhere, and she even suspected that the wall was pitying herself.

"Why don't you climb over the wall?" Lin Shouxi asked curiously.

"Over the wall?" Shuang Sisi was taken aback, thinking how could someone do such a thing in such a majestic place as the examination room?not to mention……

The girl pressed the hem of the skirt with her hand, bit her lip and lowered her head shyly.

Finally came to the final examination room.

The old man sent them the rules of the exam.

"The content of the test this time is not difficult. What is tested is the sensitivity of your five sense organs. There are three levels in total. In the first level, there will be a hundred glasses of water in front of you, and 99 of them will contain hallucinogenic substances , only one cup is normal, you have to drink one of the cups of water, the second level has two relief murals, these two murals look exactly the same, but there are four differences, you have to find them before the hourglass runs out , as for the third level..."

The old man made a fool of himself and said, "You will know when you arrive."

Lin Shouxi nodded, expressing his understanding, the old man inserted three sticks of incense, lit the first one, and said: "The disciples who have passed through this room for a hundred years only took one-eighth of the time for a stick of incense at the fastest time." , I see that you are pretentious, I wonder if you can break this record."

"One-eighth stick of incense..."

Shuang Sisi was amazed. Just by listening to the rules, she knew that even though these levels were not difficult, they were extremely time-consuming. It would take a lot of time just to identify a hundred cups of colorless and odorless water. Not to mention the two magnificent relief murals at the back...

One-eighth stick of incense, how can a god do this?
The old man lied to Lin Shouxi. In fact, the fastest passer also used a quarter of a stick of incense. The old man just remembered that the temple was destroyed just now, and intentionally fabricated an impossible time to stimulate him.

Lin Shouxi didn't delve into anything, and when he came to a hundred glasses of water, he didn't even look at it, and just picked up a glass and drank it.

"How are you sure it's free from hallucinogens?" The old man was puzzled by this move.

"I can't be sure." Lin Shouxi said, "I just took it casually."

"then you……"

"I have an antidote."

As Lin Shouxi said, the Xuanzi Qi Pill in his body reversed, the Qingguangding tripod shimmered, and he inhaled a drop of water. The tripod, like an old doctor, quickly gave an explanation. The five viscera and the six internal organs, before the hallucinogenic medicine dissipated, they were dissolved by the Qingguang Ding.

"You actually practiced the art of refining the cauldron?" After all, the old man was well-informed and recognized this method at a glance.

A person who has practiced the art of refining the cauldron is equivalent to a walking alchemy furnace, and ordinary medicines can't help him at all.

"This hallucinogenic drug will make people lose their minds. When they see the person they want to see the most and the thing they desire the most, those who are not determined will often indulge in it. Sleeping for several hours at a time, even those with a firm heart will usually spend a whole day. I didn't expect you to have such a solution during the burning of incense." The old man stroked his beard, not knowing whether it was emotion or admiration.

"Is that so..." Lin Shouxi stopped slightly when he heard the words. He lowered his head and said softly, "I knew I was puzzled."

The old man was slightly stunned, and when he raised his head, Lin Shouxi had already walked in front of the giant stone carving.

What is engraved on this stone wall is a magnificent picture scroll of mythology. The emperor sits on the throne with a hollow face. Excalibur, under each sword is a ferocious and ugly devil. They open their huge mouths, as if they want to swallow the Holy Spirit on the throne. A woman in a palace dress with a blurred face stands aside, holding an oracle, and reading out wearing something.

"Thousands of years ago, the human race was divided into two classes. The powerful and rare faction was called the Immortals, and the weak and numerous faction was called the Soilborn. The Immortals did not want the Soilborn to divide up cultivation resources. Wanting to exile them to a filthy and dark place to fend for themselves, the soil survivors relied on their own efforts to persuade the emperor to veto the plan of exile of the human race, and instead opened the era of people's cultivation of truth."

The saint on the murals is announcing the beginning of the era of self-cultivation. The first immortals who followed the emperor were full of resignation, while the rest were rejoicing and rejoicing.

"It's a great day," said the old man.

Today, under the wash of thousands of years of wind and frost, human beings have long lost the difference between those who come from immortals and those who live on earth. In other words, almost everyone has the common blood of these two races flowing in their bodies, and only some hidden families Still stubbornly demanding the purity of the blood.

"Is our human race only a thousand years old?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"The history we can still remember is only a thousand years old," said the old man.

Lin Shouxi was puzzled, since this world seems to be older and civilizations were born earlier, why the length of history is not as long as his old world?

Lin Shouxi didn't think much about it yet, he stretched out his fingers, and quickly pointed out three differences.

"Is there another place?" the old man asked.

"There are only three places." Lin Shouxi said.

"you sure?"

"determine."

"How...how did you find out?"

The old man was puzzled. There are tens of thousands of details in this picture. How could he quickly find three differences, and how could he be sure that there were only three differences in total?
"Because they...are dazzling." Lin Shouxi said lightly, giving an unreasonable reason.

The old man narrowed his eyes, he sighed, followed Lin Shouxi forward, and said to himself: "I want to see how you can pretend..."

At the deepest point, there was nothing but a pool of water in front of Lin Shouxi.

"There is a fish in this pool. This fish was made by the immortal with a secret method. It has no eyes, no gills, no body, no scales, and it is no different from water. It swims in it, and it can't even stir up waves. There is a very slight sound, which is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish." The old man said, "You need to use this net to fish it out of the water."

"Can I use other things to assist?" Lin Shouxi asked.

"What do you want to use?" the old man asked alertly.

"I have learned a little bit of lightning..."

"Shenshan is not for electric fish." The old man coldly refused.

The old man cut off this crooked way, and hoped that this young man could truly show him his abilities. I have to say that although he was a little dissatisfied with this young man's pretentious appearance, he already felt in his heart that this was a man with strong plasticity. genius.

If Mu Shijing was here, he might be able to catch the fish without even opening his eyes. Lin Shouxi's perception is not as good as Mu Shijing's, and he didn't want to waste too much time, so he had to find another way.

Lin Shouxi thought for a while, pointing parallelly, running the Black Phoenix Sword Sutra with white pupils, using the finger as a sword, pointing to the surface of the water, and then raised it suddenly, the sword sutra's control over the water was instantly aroused, and for a moment, there seemed to be an invisible giant Holding the entire pool in the palm of his hand, the water in the small pool rose into the air and gathered towards the position of his finger, and the entire pool was lifted up by him in this way!

The old man was dumbfounded when he saw this scene. He knew that this young man was in a good state, but he had the supernatural power to grab a pool full of water... Could it be that he possessed the spiritual root of water?

The water in the pool was directly evacuated, and a fish made of water fell back to the bottom of the pool, writhing about. Lin Shouxi bent down, took a net, and caught it easily. fell back into the pool.

Lin Shouxi glanced at the incense and burned one-eighth of it. He said with some regret: "Unfortunately, it just tied the fastest record."

"No, you are the fastest now." The old man looked at the fish with a complicated expression, thinking that in the future visible to the naked eye, this record should be difficult to break again.

"Before you came, No.1 had kept the record for 300 years. She threatened back then that no one of her age would be stronger than her in another 300 years. I never thought that the 300-year barrier would be broken by you. " said the old man.

"Who is that person?" Lin Shouxi became interested.

"She is now on Yunkong Mountain, her name has been hidden, and everyone respects her as the landlord of Xianlou." The old man said.

A truly important person like Gong Yu will use secret methods to hide her fame after she has completed her cultivation. Many people who used to know her will also forget her name. Only sisters like Chu Miao who grew up together will be allowed to Remember, that's why her name won't appear on the various lists in the mansion newspaper.

The owner of Xianlou?

Lin Shouxi was startled, wondering if it was Bai Zhu's master?

"A person like you who possesses unique knowledge should be directly accepted as a direct disciple of the inner sect. You came to Chaoyun Hall... are you here to make trouble?" the old man said with a wry smile.

"The teacher I want to meet is among these 24 schools, and I have no choice but to come here." Lin Shouxi said.

"Oh? Who do you want to worship? Is it the head of the 24 sects, the first genius since 290, Fairy Lu, or the Immortal Master Wang whose disciples are all immortals? Or..."

"I'm going to see Chu Yingchan." Lin Shouxi interrupted.

"What? Chu Yingchan?" The old man's expression changed, "You mean... you want to join Truman?"

"Yes."

"Do you know Fairy Chu's current state?"

"clear."

"It's hard for the mud bodhisattva to cross the river now, and it's difficult for her sect to apply to Yunkong Mountain for immortal herbs and miraculous medicines. You...are you serious?" the old man asked confused.

"Of course." Lin Shouxi said.

The old man became angry now, "Then you lied to me that you had no money in the ruined temple earlier?"

"I really have no money, why did I lie to you?" Lin Shouxi didn't know why he brought this up again.

"Stop lying, the Queen of Chu invited someone like you who possesses unique knowledge to come to study as a teacher, and she didn't give you a penny, did she? Or is it that you are appointed by the Queen, the future... Consort of the Chu Kingdom? ?” The old man looked at him with an increasingly complicated expression.
