The national teacher does not practice

Chapter 138 After he got up, he broke through five barriers in a row (Nine thousand word chapter please subscribe)
"Crack."

The boots stepped on the dead branches and leaves in the forest, making a crisp sound. Ji Pingan looked at the dark forest. Through the dividing line in front of him, he could vaguely see the dense and verdant forest and waterfall in the distance.

His eyes narrowed, lost in thought.

"For the disciples of the five major sects, it's too simple... yes, why is it so simple?"

Ji Pingan felt something was wrong.

You must know that although some Jianghu people are allowed to enter the grand prize, in the final analysis, these checkpoints are still designed for practitioners of sects.

What's more, even if you take a step back, even if it's for the Jianghu people, the difficulty is somewhat low.

The several attacks along the way seemed to protrude a murderous intent, but in fact the scare was greater than the danger.

The first Orion was indeed confusing, but on the premise of giving a small reminder first, it was a person who suddenly appeared in such a strange and strange place.

Anyone with a normal mentality would be vigilant, but that orangutan was really weak.

"Could it be that there will be a crisis when you step out?"

Thinking about it, Ji Pingan tried to walk a few more steps, but he easily left this small dark forest.

Obviously not... He stepped back again, feeling more and more weird.

In his opinion, any design is meaningful. There are only six landmarks in the early stage of Dao Realm, and this wooden house in the forest occupies one. If it is too simple, what is the point of setting it up?
"If you follow the design ideas in the previous life and the game, since the given map is to rush through the level, and the difficulty of the first level is extremely low, then the purpose of the design is only one - to let players be familiar with the operation and gameplay of this game."

"But in fact, apart from making me be careful about everything around me, there's nothing worth noting... No, wait, that Orion!"

"Speaking of which, the purpose of this Orion's visit is really unclear. If it's a sneak attack, it's not as practical as the arm that suddenly popped out of the ground, but it made me more vigilant.

"If it is said that his role is to explain to me the 'background setting' and story of this Dao Realm, but what he said seems to be useless. Or is there important information in what he said?"

Ji Pingan closed his eyes and recalled the entire conversation between the two from meeting to death.

The most noteworthy thing I found was the phrase "monsters have no shadow, and they speak differently from ordinary people."

Why did the other party say such a sentence?

He remembered very clearly that Orion had a shadow.

"Two possibilities: First, this sentence is false, and it is simply responding to my inquiry."

"Second, this sentence is true. There are indeed some ghosts without shadows in the primeval forest, but they are not in this area."

"There is nothing to say about the former, but the latter would be interesting... It means that Orion is revealing to me some dangerous cracking methods in this entire Dao Realm in advance."

Ji Pingan decided to do an experiment amidst the ups and downs of his thoughts.

So he turned around on the spot and returned to the wooden house in the forest, the surrounding environment remained unchanged.

It's just that the door that was originally open, whether it was blown by the wind or what, unexpectedly closed again.

"Clang." Ji Ping'an pressed his thumb on the scabbard at his waist, and lightly popped out the blade, and a flash of sword energy flashed by.

With a "bang", the broken wooden door shattered, revealing the inner space.

His pupils shrank slightly:
The corpse in the house has disappeared.

……

……

In another part of the forest, a girl with a thin body and messy hair was running around with a cold iron spear.

The end of her spear was stained red with blood, and there were still some hairs and broken feathers attached to it, which were the traces left by the attacks of birds and beasts in the forest along the way.

"Wow." Suddenly, Luo Huaizhu, who was running intently, pricked up his ears, and heard the sound of a waterfall coming from obliquely ahead.

She slammed on the brakes, and under her feet, the thick fallen leaves splashed like stagnant water.

She took out the folded square map from her bosom, opened it to look at it, and whispered to herself:

"Weak water."

After entering here, she also saw a wooden house and encountered the hunter.

The simple Luo Huaizhu didn't see through the opponent's identity, but subconsciously shot out when the opponent was trying to sneak attack, piercing the opponent...

After he was killed, his brain slowed down for half a beat, and he slowly reacted.

Seeing that she was about to reach the second "landmark", she was refreshed, and she was looking forward to meeting Ji Ping'an and the others as soon as possible.

Picking up the map and running wildly, rushing out of the dense forest, the sight suddenly opened up, and the sound of the water suddenly amplified.

I saw a ribbon-like river stretching across the front, spreading towards the left and right sides, with no end in sight, as if cutting the entire Taoist realm.

At this moment, dozens of people had already gathered on the bank of the river, most of them were at least one foot away from each other, guarding each other, but no one was fighting.

"Senior Sister Luo!"

Suddenly, a beautiful figure in the crowd burst into a smile and raised her hand to wave. It was Lin Qin, one of the team members.

"Did you meet anyone else?"

Luo Huaizhu dragged the spear with his right hand, ignoring the gazes of those Jianghu people and several members of other sects.

Lin Qin bit her lip, shook her head, and said:

"After everyone came in, they were all in different directions, but it seems that the closer they are to the center, the greater the chance of encountering each other. Let's not talk about this, this level is a bit troublesome."

Luo Huaizhu looked at the not-so-wide river ahead, and tilted his head:
"trouble?"

Lin Qin gave an "en" and said:

"As marked on the map, this river is similar to the legendary Weak Water. Any person or object passing through the sky will be pulled downward with a huge force."

As she spoke, she bent down to pick up a stone, and threw it out with a flick of her wrist.

"call out!"

The stone almost wiped out sparks, and the speed was extremely fast, but after rushing out not far, it fell straight into the river with a "plop", causing a cloud of spray.

Lin Qin sighed:
"That's it. I tried to resist with water spells, and it did have some effect, but it was very difficult. According to my estimation, if I forcibly cross the river with my cultivation level, my body's spiritual energy may be exhausted by the time I get to the other side, and the process of crossing the river cannot be guaranteed. safety."

At this moment, a disciple of Huaiyuan suddenly gave a low shout, threw the long sword in his hand, jumped up, and flew towards the opposite bank of Ruo Shui.

As soon as he entered the range, his knees sank suddenly, and the front part of the flying sword tilted downward, and the arc became more and more obvious. After flying over half of the river, he finally groaned and fell into the river, causing a cloud of spray.

The person did not sink into the river, but was thrown back to the shore by a thrust, coughing and spitting water like a drowned chicken.

Seeing this, Lin Qin's eyes moved, and he analyzed:
"It seems that this hurdle must either be cultivated enough to forcefully overcome it, or we can only find another way."

……

……

Inside the cabin.

Ji Pingan carefully inspected the ground and found that not only the corpse disappeared, but even the blood on the ground seemed to have been wiped off.

But the maps and pamphlets were not "refreshed".

"Escape from feigning death? No... I'm pretty sure it was already dead at the time, so... is it the mechanism of this Dao Realm?"

Ji Pingan rubbed his fingers on the floor, looking at the layer of dust on his round fingertips, he felt more and more interesting.

"On the way back, I saw the corpses of birds and beasts that I had sanded down before, and they were normal. Only the corpse of this Orion disappeared. It really is special. But what is the meaning of this design?"

If it's cleaning the battlefield...it doesn't make sense to only clean this one, if it's a scene refresh, it doesn't make sense not to "refresh" the map again.

"According to the rules of the Grand Prize, there are many ways to solve each difficulty. Those who are weaker can find shortcuts to pass the level...Since there are shortcuts, there must be clues for people to find."

After a little thought, Ji Ping didn't leave at all, but sat cross-legged in the wooden house and waited quietly.

Three days, at the speed of practitioners traveling, is extremely sufficient.

Time passed by little by little, when Ji Pingan opened his eyes from meditation, he only felt the booklet in his pocket vibrate, emitting a faint golden light.

"Is it three hours already?"

He looked at the still dilapidated wooden door and found that it was getting darker outside.

In this place, the sense of time is very vague, but the time can be roughly estimated through the update of the list.

Ji Pingan opened the brochure and found that the ranking had changed, and many familiar names appeared at the top of the list.

For example, Shengzi, Yu Yu, Zhao Yuanji, Qin Leyou, Luohuai Bamboo, etc. with higher cultivation levels, the landmarks behind them have already reached the "Pumice Stone Formation".

Indicates that the third level has been reached.

In the future, it is still dominated by the big school of geniuses, and a few people from the rivers and lakes are mixed among them, and they have all passed the weak water.

After that, almost all of the names in a long biography were stuck in "Ruoshuihe". Ji Pingan turned to the last few pages before seeing his own name.

Mixing with a group of unfamiliar names is more abrupt.

I don't know if he is too weak and can't even get out of the starting point, or he has the same idea as Ji Ping'an and discovered something.

At this moment, Ji Ping'an suddenly felt that the light on the pages of the book was further dimmed. He raised his head, and suddenly found that the door he broke had recovered at some point.

There were first footsteps outside the door, and then a "Tuk Tuk" knock on the door.

Ji Pingan stood up, opened the door, and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a hunter standing outside the door, with a hatchet and water bag hanging on his waist, staring at him vigilantly.

"Outsider?" The hunter who died three hours ago spoke first.

Ji Ping'an frowned first, then relaxed, and said with a smile:
"I'm here to find Xianyuan, let's go into the room and talk."

……

……

The clouds in the sky turned red, and the sun gradually sank to the ground.

Yu Yu withdrew his gaze from looking at Xia Guang, and turned his head to look ahead.

She is still wearing the iconic red and white Taoist robe, which stands out like a cluster of flames in this verdant mountain forest.

The small porcelain-like face is full of calmness and pride that fits the design of a saint.

Behind her, surrounded by several Taoist disciples.

At this moment, this group of Taoist cultivators are all holding flying swords secretly, or holding yellow paper talismans with their fingertips, or holding array flags behind their necks.

Vigilantly confronted the Huaiyuan team on the opposite side.

Qin Leyou, who has a "prodigal son" character, looks carefree, with a smile on his sunny and handsome face, a loose Confucian robe, a big sword in both hands, and a few scholars behind him.

The two sides met unexpectedly and subconsciously entered a state of preparation for war.

Qin Leyou laughed and said:
"A few days ago in the martial arts competition, I saw that the saint's appearance is outstanding. She is worthy of the disciples of Master Xin. She has inherited her strength and appearance. She is much better than the holy son who hides his head and shows his tail."

Yu Yu glanced at him, raised her snow-white chin slightly, let out a "hum", and said with a sneer:
"The disciples of Huaiyuan describe themselves as strong, and don't want to use this inferior method of alienation."

Well, although Yu Yu has always looked down on the Holy Son, and often teases him in different ways, not wanting him to pretend to be coercive, but the Holy Maiden has a big picture.

It's okay for your own family to dislike it, but on this occasion, you must be consistent with the outside world.

What's more, Yu Yu doesn't like Qin Leyou, a prodigal who hangs out in brothels all day.

A scholar was furious and was about to speak, but Qin Leyou waved his hand lazily to stop him, and said with a smile:

"The national teacher once said that beautiful girls always have some privileges, that's all, please pass this pumice stone formation first."

As he spoke, he took the initiative to take two steps back, expressing that he had no plans to start a war in advance.

In fact, if the two factions collide alone, and the strength is very different, they don't mind taking the first shot to eliminate the other party, but this kind of strength is relatively balanced, and there is really no motivation.

Otherwise, it's not worth it to beat people to life and death, and then get cheap for others.

Yu Yu didn't appreciate it, and said in a slightly sarcastic tone:
"Please invite your party first. As a landlord, you should always give courtesy to your guests."

Or, she also led the disciples behind her back a few steps.

The atmosphere was a little stiff, neither side said a word, staring wide-eyed.

At this time, Zhao Yuanji came galloping on an imaginary tiger, roaring in the mountains and forests.

The sixteen or seventeen-year-old cold and arrogant boy was holding a whistle stick in his hand. He was stunned when he saw this scene, then frowned, and looked at the open space in front of him, where there were huge white stones floating in a formation. Law.

At the entrance, a stone tablet was erected, on which was marked a maze-like map corresponding to the pumice formation.

Every ten breaths, the formation will change, and those floating stones will also form a new formation.

"In other words, do you have to memorize the map within ten breaths, and then rush over? It doesn't look difficult." Zhao Yuanji said, seeing the confrontational two sides laughed and said:
"Hahaha, can't you make it through here?"

Stupid... Qin Leyou and Yu Yu cursed in their hearts, and said at the same time:
"Then you come first."

The cold and proud boy patted his mount, the tiger's limbs sank, and then jumped up fiercely, trying to jump over the formation.

As a result, it hit an invisible mask, and with an "oops", it hit the ground, setting off a cloud of smoke and dust.

……

outside world.

Compared with the faster flow of time, it has already reached the Taoist realm in the evening, and it is not yet noon outside.

The drizzle is still there, but there are more and more people watching from the shore, because as a group of people start to break through the level, the portraits on the sky begin to switch frequently from level to level.

Although I can't hear the sound, I can roughly understand it.

"Heh, the people from the Beast Sect are more brainless than the star officials of the Fire Academy." In the crowd, Si Li, holding an umbrella, twitched her mouth and laughed.

It caused a group of star officers from the nearby Fire Academy to glare.

"Say a few words less."

The middle-aged Si Li had no choice but to remind him that he was really afraid that the heads of his colleagues around him would get hot, and they would roll up their sleeves and rush forward to fight.

Huang Hechu was in the crowd, looking up at the scene in the sky, he said:
"It's really difficult to watch. At first everyone was on the same level, but the gap was widened so quickly."

Wearing a lotus leaf skirt, Mu Yaoyao, who is a pure bastard in the Liangyi Hall, brushed off her little hands, shook off the crumbs of pancakes on the ground, and couldn't help muttering:

"Why haven't I seen the elder brother?"

Yes, the screens on the sky kept switching, but they still couldn't see Ji Ping'an's figure.

"Maybe it's all staggered, those pictures are only swaying at a few landmarks, maybe I missed it." Huang He tried to make up for it.

It's just that the tone in his tone was a bit beating. As a boy, he was extremely confident in his son at first.

He even blindly ignored the fact that his realm was backward, but he still couldn't see how vain it was.

The middle-aged Si Li changed his hand to hold the umbrella and said:
"I estimate that the time inside is almost three o'clock. At that time, the real-time list should be announced outside, so you can see it."

To a certain extent, the reason why the Dao territory made a list is for outsiders to see.

Of course, the participants can also locate the approximate position of the same door through the list.

……

In the three-story pavilion, the rainwater pattered on the viewing platform, and a layer of accumulated water swayed and rippled.

A group of dignitaries in the building were equally anxious. Although it was said that it was enough to arrive at Yunqi Town within "three days" within the territory, it did not mean that the disciples would not be eliminated.

According to previous experience, among the disciples of Po Jiu, there were some who couldn't make it to the end, let alone Yang Qi?

"This year's Dao Realm is even more difficult."

The old monk with gray eyebrows put down his teacup and sighed softly.

Mrs. Zhang is in a good mood when he sees the progress of Qin Leyou and others, so he will be free to talk:
"Since Tiandi Lingsu entered a period of decline more than 400 years ago, the path of practitioners in Kyushu has been extremely difficult. Our generation is very mediocre, but this group of young people are more talented than before, so it should be difficult. "

It's cheap to be good... Gao Mingjing complained that this Taoist realm was particularly unfriendly to Molin's painters, and he couldn't use the scroll-throwing tactic, which resulted in slower progress than expected.

Luan Yu glanced at the disheveled Zhao Yuanji who had been bumped into, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he had nothing to say:
"According to this speed, we may be able to complete these five levels today."

She refers to a day outside.

The rest of the people didn't say a word, which was a tacit agreement.

Xu Xiurong was not in the mood to participate in the discussion. The female star official seemed calm, but in fact her eyes were always looking at the booklet on the table, her heart itching unbearably.

She has already seen Luo Huaizhu, Lin Qin and others on the projection, but she has not seen Ji Pingan for a long time, so she will be a little worried.

In fact, not only her, but everyone here shifted their eyes to the booklet from time to time. After all, the flow of time inside and outside is different, and it is not easy for everyone to grasp the update law.

"Why isn't it updated?" Fang Liuhuo muttered.

At this moment, it seemed to hear his voice.

The brochures on the tea table next to everyone's hands vibrated at the same time, emitting a faint golden light.

"updated!"

Xu Xiurong had quick eyes and quick hands, and was the first to grab it, and turned to the list page:

Holy Son of State Religion——Sword Qi Forest
Huaiyuan Qin Leyou - Floating Stones
The Holy Maiden of the State Church—Pumice Stones
Zhao Yuanji, Emperor of the Beast - Pumice Stone Formation
……

The list is arranged from top to bottom according to the progress, and those who are in the same level are sorted by the speed of breaking the level.

The ranking is somewhat similar to the results of the martial arts competition, which is not surprising, after all, the further they go, the greater the gap between them.

The stronger ones often choose to break through the level with cultivation base, while the weaker ones either delay their progress due to various factors, or waste time thinking about ways to break through the level.

It's just that looking back, the rankings start to get messy.

But on the whole, Daomen and Huaiyuan are still dominant, followed by Yushouzong and Molin.

Qin Tianjian... Unsurprisingly, he ranked last.

The most powerful Luo Huaizhu, in order to bring more fellows to pass the test, so he also slowed down and was dragged down.

Seeing this scene, although they were mentally prepared, the five prison lords were still a little bit lost.

"Hey, why didn't you see Ji Sichen?" It was Duke Lu who spoke, and this important official in front of the palace was also looking through the list:

"It's not on the record."

He expressed reasonable doubt.

After all, with the brains, wrists, and peak energy strength he displayed, even if he can't make it to the top, he should be in the top [-] or [-].

"Eh, indeed not."

"It stands to reason that there will be no mistakes in the Taoism."

The others were also surprised, only the female prisoner lowered her head, flipping her slender hands, as if she didn't believe in evil, she kept turning back, her beautiful eyes anxiously searched for the name, and in the process, her heart gradually sank .

And when she turned to the last page and saw Ji Ping'an clearly, she was stunned.

Immediately, he almost lost his voice and said:
"impossible!"

Everyone looked over.Li Guofeng, who has always been calm and majestic, also shrank his pupils and frowned after seeing it:

"What is he doing? Or did he encounter an accident?"

No one thought that with Ji Ping'an's ability, he wouldn't even be able to get past the first level.

So, the first reaction is that there is a problem.

"This..." Chen Daoling was also stunned, his brows furrowed, and he said:

"It stands to reason, it shouldn't be like this..."

He did know the situation of some checkpoints, but he was informed by Xin Yaoguang temporarily before the start, which was not comprehensive, and it would be difficult to explain this to the questioning eyes of the five prison marquises.

"Can you adjust the screen to his position?" Xu Xiurong suddenly raised his head and looked at the old Taoist priest.

Chen Daoling smiled wryly: "This is the Dao Realm running on its own, unless the head teacher takes action. Don't worry about Xu Jianhou, there is still a lot of time left, maybe Ji Sichen has something to delay."

But this explanation, he himself did not believe it.

The five prison marquises had no choice but to suppress their anxiety and comfort themselves that maybe there was something wrong.

However, unlike the group of people in the building, there was an uproar outside.

……

When a huge golden list suddenly appeared above the Hun River, it instantly attracted the attention of all the people.

"The list is released! The list is released!"

Hongying said excitedly, grabbing the shoulders of the tall woman beside her with her hands:
"Tsk, although the Holy Son has a low character and acts weirdly, he is indeed strong, but it also has something to do with the fact that the group of people behind him are fighting against each other..."

Tingxue Louzhu has a calm demeanor, but his eyes are fixed on the list as he flips through the pages, looking for names he is familiar with.

In the ear, there are voices of doubts from some common people:

"Why didn't you see Ji Sichen?"

"Yeah, it's been several pages."

As the most famous among the participants of this year, among the common people in Beijing, there is naturally a lot of attention.

When it turned to the back and finally showed Ji Ping'an's name and the words "House in the Forest", the crowd who were discussing in a mess suddenly fell silent strangely.

People were stunned for a few breaths before they realized it and reacted, and there was an uproar.

"Why is Ji Sichen so far behind?"

"I wrote it wrong, it's impossible that I haven't come out of the first place yet."

"Am I dazzled?"

The people were greatly puzzled.

Correspondingly, some Jiang Hu martial arts, after the initial astonishment, suddenly laughed out loud.

Although they also feel that there is something weird and abnormal in it, does it matter?
No matter what the accident is, anyway, it is so far behind, why not take the opportunity to publicize it?
"What did I say? This is called showing your true colors. Being able to fight in the arena is completely different from being thrown into the mountains."

"Who was arguing with me just now? Did you see that? So what about the leader of Yangqi, who has a reputation for nothing, and now it will be revealed."

"From my point of view, it's weird that he won the top spot. Maybe he bribed someone to send it up. Otherwise, how come he can't even compare with a group of unknown Jianghu people when he enters this realm? He hasn't moved for six hours, the turtle Did you crawl out too? Or did you fall asleep?"

The people in the Jianghu lack quality, if they are not worried about the star officials of the Qin Tianjian nearby, their words will be even worse.

A large group of people wanted to refute, but they were powerless.

Most people don't know how to practice, and they don't see the weirdness and wrongness in it.

Just looking at the rankings, I really feel that Ji Ping'an has revealed his secrets, and I can't help being disappointed. I feel like an idol collapsed, and I instantly turned into a little blackie.

"My lord... Did you encounter an enemy?" Huang He was stunned, and made the most reasonable guess.

"Why are these people like this? You know something is wrong when you look at it, why do you take it seriously?"

Mu Yaoyao listened to the crowd, some people believed it was true, and felt that Ji Ping'an's comments were just false, the girl was completely enraged, and if she hadn't had scruples in her heart, she would have rushed to argue with those people.

"Don't worry about it. These people don't understand at all. Wait a little longer. It's still early. When he solves the troubles and the ranking rises, those doubts will disappear."

The middle-aged Si Li was relatively calm and said.

Although the star officials present were anxious, they could only continue to wait.

Everyone felt that Ji Ping'an was just delayed, and that he would rise up next time the list was updated.

However, what they couldn't understand was that when the list was updated for the second time, Ji Ping'an still stayed at the original point.

The third update was still at the original point, and after this update, except for him, the worst of the others also broke the first level, and Ji Pingan was ranked last.

Fourth update, still the same.

the fifth time……

the sixth time……

From the beginning, there were still many people looking forward to it, but later on, even the Muyuan disciples who supported him the most were numb, their faces were gloomy, and they no longer had the slightest confidence.

Correspondingly, it is full of incomprehension.

According to the rules, if a person dies inside, the name will be removed from the list, so it is certain that Ji Ping'an's life is not in danger.

If he was seriously injured, such a long time would be enough for him to "quit" and return to the outside world.

Therefore, his strange state became more and more incomprehensible, and even Mu Yaoyao began to doubt:
"Eldest brother won't really fall asleep..."

But who can sleep for two days?

Along the Hun River, with the passage of time in the Dao territory, the light and shadow change, and the time is getting later and later.

The crowd began to flow, some left the river to go home, and some rushed back.

And as more and more people flowed, the news about Ji Ping'an's last list began to spread to the entire God City.

When night fell and the rain stopped, lanterns were lit on the banks of the Hun River. Many people who came to observe also carried lanterns, and the light and shadow in the sky became more and more clear.

The internal time has also reached the third day. On the list, the geniuses of the major factions have all arrived at the final Zhenyao Pass one after another.

It's just that the further you go, the more difficult it is, so much so that even the son of God, who is rushing forward, is also stuck in front of this door.

……

Under the night, an armored guard hung lanterns all over the viewing platform, and a group of people in the pavilion had different expressions.

"He's still at the original point," Li Guofeng opened the brochure and looked at it after the list was released again, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Even if he starts to set off now, it may be too late."

These words were addressed to Xu Xiurong.

The female prisoner was silent, holding the booklet stubbornly, without much expression on her face. Hearing this, she raised her head, looked at the light curtain in the dark night, and said in a low voice:

"Have you forgotten, this is not the first time he performed a miracle."

The other four smiled wryly and said nothing.

Why don't they have expectations?
But the current situation is that the fastest Son will have to walk for a day and a half in the previous checkpoints. No matter how special Ji Pingan is, it is really difficult to catch up.

In contrast, the four now hope to see each other sooner, and those who have not entered the town will be sent out, so as to determine Ji Ping'an's situation.

They don't want to win anymore, they just hope that Ji Pingan will not have any accidents and will be satisfied.

Seeing the appearance of the four of them, Xu Xiurong bit his plump lips, blinked his eyelashes like small brushes, and looked up at the gold list that was slowly dissipating in the sky.

Only the last three hours are left.

What happened to you?
……

within the road.

Participants have been living in this virgin forest for nearly three days.

Everyone's dry food has been exhausted, although they can also find fruit in the forest to satisfy their hunger, but as they are hit again and again and fail to pass the level, most people are unable to break through again.

Some people began to withdraw voluntarily and left early, and some people still insisted on not admitting defeat.

It's just that the numerous passes, like steel gates blocking the river, clearly divide most people.

"Third Young Master, don't try again."

Somewhere by a weak river, a man named Tie Sha sat on a rock with his luggage beside him, trying in vain to persuade Pei Qian who was washed back to the bank by the river again.

After a pause, he said, "If you really want to go there, I can help you..."

"No!"

On the shore, Pei Qian, with a round face and a little festive, was rather haggard, drenched, like a drowned rat, but firmly refused, staring at the river full of unwillingness and unyielding eyes.

Standing up with his sword leaning on his body, he raised his hand and pointed at the river angrily:

"This young master has just entered the rivers and lakes, how can he be troubled by this mere small river?!"

In the past three days, Pei Qian's mood can be described as ups and downs.

At first, I was excited and broke through the first hurdle, and felt invincible, and those dangers were solved like cutting melons and vegetables.

Paradoxically, the next level will be the same, he, Mr. Pei, will become famous all over the world if he wants to go out of the city with a sword.

As a result, this dream started as a sudden fall into the weak water, and then turned into a nightmare... In the past few days, he tried again and again, and failed again and again.

It's called perseverance.

After Tie Sha joined him as a guard, he was really miserable, and wanted to help him cross——

With Iron Sand's cultivation base, although it is a bit strenuous, if the combat power is at full strength, it is still safe to throw the young master.

But Pei Qian is resolutely unwilling:
"Do you know that everything here is presented in front of thousands of people in God's Capital? If you want me to be thrown over by you, son, don't you want to be the laughing stock of everyone in the world?"

Iron Heart said:

In fact, no one may know you...

At this time, the brochures on the two of them vibrated, and the list was released again.

Tie Sha opened his eyes and said suddenly:

"That Ji Ping'an is still at the origin, it's strange, and I don't know what happened."

When Pei Qian heard this, he immediately regained his balance.

He is a person who is easily satisfied, and it does seem to make him feel better to have the leader of the competition behind him.

When I go home in the future, if the second sister asks me, I will say that I am in front of the leader of the competition...

"Oh, it's a pity. In this way, I am safe with this season, and it should be a hero who cherishes heroes." Pei Qian said with emotion:

"My young master entered the rivers and lakes for the first time, and he was listed on the list of potential dragons, but he fell into the sky. Ji Ping'an was also... worse than me, and he will be thrown out after the end. I don't know how to face the people of God's Capital?"

Tie Sha didn't complain this time. As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the harder you fall. Regardless of the reason, that Ji Sichen might really lose his reputation this time.

"National teacher Zeng Yun said that the common people like to create gods, but also like to destroy gods. No matter how high he was praised before, he will be scolded later. In this way, it is better not to come to participate in the earliest days." Iron Sand sighed.

The master and servant are sitting by the Ruoshui River, with the faint morning light above their heads.

The sun rises halfway in the east, and the fog in the mountain peaks drifts away. It is a scene that is very different from the night outside.

In the last three hours, most people have lost their motivation, lying or sitting, and fell in front of a series of checkpoints.

It's a bit like the mentality of candidates who can't do big questions, don't bother to check, don't want to hand in papers, and hang on until the end of the exam.

However, at this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the forest.

Iron Sha was the first to turn his head away dexterously while holding down the handle of the knife:
At this time, there are almost no practitioners behind, so only animals in the mountains may appear.

Pei Qian also turned his head to look over, and then the faces of the master and servant began to change, because in the thin morning mist in the forest, a person came slowly.

It was a young man wearing a dark green star map embroidered robe with a calm and peaceful demeanor.

His eyes are very bright, like the bright morning sun, his clothes are very clean, only some morning dew is stained on the hem, as if it was the first time he walked into the forest until today.

A sword and a water bag hang from his waist, a bamboo basket is carried on his back, and a rope is held in his hand with a bundle of slender bamboos tied to the end of the rope.

Ji Pingan walked out of the dense forest, looked at the bewildered master and servant beside Ruoshui, smiled, and said:

"Hello."

Pei Qian and Tie Sha opened their mouths, but did not speak, because they were full of doubts. After a while, Pei Qian was the first to say:
"You are...that Ji Sichen?"

Although he hadn't seen it before, it was enough to judge from the official robe and coming out from the back.

Ji Pingan was slightly surprised, and said with a smile:

"Yeah, there must be weak water ahead."

Perhaps this scene was too weird, and Pei Qian's proud social skills got stuck for a while, so he could only nod numbly, his mind was still in a mess.

"Thank you." Ji Pingan thanked with a smile, and then walked straight towards Ruoshui.

Only then did Tie Sha come back to his senses, and hurriedly said:

"Ji Sichen, be careful, this weak water is very difficult to cross, anything that passes over it will sink..."

He didn't finish a sentence, and it suddenly got stuck in his throat.

I saw Ji Ping'an walked to the river, took one of the bundles of bamboo, and threw it on the river, the green bamboo pole floated up, he jumped lightly, stepped on the bamboo with both feet, palms facing backwards Launch a palm wind.

Then, stepping on the bamboo under his feet, he lightly pierced through the surface of the lake with golden scales under the reflection of the morning sun, just like "crossing the river with a reed" in the rumors of the rivers and lakes, and reached the opposite bank in the blink of an eye.

!!!

Pei Qian and Tie Sha were stunned and rubbed their eyes at the same time, as if they saw something unbelievable.

A gust of wind blew by, and the books that had been thrown on the ground were turned over with a "crash", and a name on the list began to move quietly.

Qin Tianjian Ji Ping'an - the South Bank of Ruoshui River
