The twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, dusk
Tie Zhu chewed on a big stick bone and walked around outside Yuezhen Pavilion.
This is a habit he has developed since he was a child in Tianjia Village. When eating, he likes to carry a bowl around the house.
Caisi tidied up in the cave and took a walk outside the cave after finishing. However, she did not want to walk with this vulgar guy and just watched and laughed from a distance.
Suddenly, both of them looked into the distance at the same time.
A flying sword is slowly heading this way.
"It's Miss, and the young man, they are finally back!" Caisi said in surprise.
The bones in Tie Zhu's hand fell without realizing it, and he kept calling his mother: "My mother, these two people have been missing for five days and five nights. Where have they gone?"
Five days ago, the two men returned from Zhoucheng and disappeared the next morning. The two attendants were a little confused, but it was common for immortal cultivators to see their dragons but not their tail, so they did not report what was going on, but felt uneasy.
Feijian slowly came to them, it was Zhao Yuer and Yang Zhen.
The two jumped off the flying sword, and Tie Zhu stupidly came up to him and asked, "Little Shitou, where have you been these past few days?"
"Where are you going?" Yang Zhen was stunned, and then she said with a hearty smile: "The two of us went to talk about scriptures, um, and practice."
"It will take you five days and five nights to talk about sutras once!" Tie Zhu smacked his lips.
"How can it only be once?" Yang Zhen said seriously: "We have talked many times, well, there must be thirty or forty times, right, Yue'er?"
He asked the girl next to him with a smile.
Zhao Yue'er's face was red with embarrassment and she glared at him fiercely.
Caisi looked a little strange. A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she seemed to understand something. She opened her mouth so much that she wanted to stuff a barrel into her mouth, and stared blankly at her young lady.
"It's over, Madam will beat me to death." She lamented in her heart.
Yang Zhen laughed loudly, ignoring Tie Zhu who looked confused, and asked Caisi: "Has anyone been looking for us in the past few days?"
"Ah? Yes, yes." Caisi nodded hurriedly.
"What's going on?"
"The first thing is that Taoist Master Tian Cheng from here is here. Let me inform you that the alchemy course is undergoing a final exam. I want you two to remember it. He also said that tomorrow is the last day."
"Hey, we missed something important." Yang Zhen slapped her forehead and turned to look at Zhao Yue'er.
What he got in return was a blank look from the girl.
"Yue'er, are you going?" he asked.
In the past three years, he has been studying alchemy and has basically not missed the course. Zhao Yue'er, on the other hand, only went to two or three of the ten classes, mostly to accompany him for fun. Although he had gained spiritual consciousness early on, the elixir he refined was not as good as his own.
The little girl's interest lies in formation.
"I won't go." Zhao Yuer shook her head and suddenly remembered something: "Xiao Shitou, after you become an inner disciple, whose disciple are you going to worship?"
"This," Yang Zhen thought for a moment and replied, "Alchemy Academy."
Inner disciples can choose a Jindan Zhenren as their nominal mentor. Few inner disciples would give up this right. One is that you can get better guidance, although in practice real people rarely give guidance in person. The second is to find a backer for himself in the sect.
Of course Yang Zhen has also considered this issue. He has his own cultivation techniques and the secret of bluestone, so he doesn't want to find a leader for his cultivation. On the other hand, alchemy and weapon refining were the two major skills he planned to learn.
As for these two items, among all the Jindan ancestors of the Yunxiao Sect, the one who is most proficient is Chenghong Zhenren.
In addition to this trip to Langshan, Master Chenghong had a good impression of him and even encouraged him in public.
In addition, many classics on alchemy and weapon refining can only be consulted by inner disciples of the Alchemy Academy.
Taking these factors into consideration, becoming a disciple of the Alchemy Academy became the most suitable choice for Yang Zhen.
However, you can't just enter the Alchemy Academy if you want to. Whether it's the outer or inner gate, you have to go through selection.
Only those who pass the final exam and become winners can be qualified for the next step of selection.
valley……
"Yeah." The little girl responded softly and said nothing more.
"What about the second thing?" Yang Zhen continued to ask.
"The second thing," Caisi replied, "Sister Zixue came to see Miss Yue'er and warned her that if she doesn't report to Patriarch Shuihong before the end of the month, she will no longer be an inner disciple."
"Ah!" Zhao Yue'er exclaimed, and immediately put away the flying sword again: "I'll go there right away."
She jumped on the flying sword and flew out of the mountain in a hurry.
"Hey, today is twenty-eight, and there are two more days!" Yang Zhen shouted behind her.
Zhao Yue'er turned a deaf ear and ran away as if flying a sword.
Yang Zhen laughed dumbly.
It couldn't be that his reckless behavior in the past few days had frightened the little girl.
As young people who had tasted it for the first time, the two of them spent a few days without being ashamed.
During the day, the water comes out, and at night, the moon is closed and the flowers are shy.
Even if you practice day and night, the results will be very significant.
Five new meridians have been opened up in each body. The total number of Yang Zhen's meridians has reached eighteen, two more than in the later stage of Qi training.
He has also become more and more familiar with water magic.
Looking at the beautiful figure of the girl slowly disappearing under the fiery red clouds, Yang Zhen smiled with joy in her heart.
…
After working hard for five days and nights, I slept particularly soundly that night.
The next morning, Yang Zhen was full of energy and walked towards the college.
At the same time, at a teahouse in Wufangting.
A round-faced female disciple in yellow, Yingying, stood up and said to the two inner disciples at the same table:
"Thank you two brothers for coming to visit me. Miaoying still has exams, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, he bowed to the two of them and turned around.
The two disciples watched her leave without stopping her.
After a while, one of them said: "Brother Ninth, this girl of yours is really stubborn. She insists on taking the exam. Shouldn't you tell the ancestor that she won't be allowed to enter the Alchemy Academy?"
"People who cultivate immortality must have some perseverance." Dai Miaocheng said lightly.
He substituted tea for wine, had a drink with the other party, and then asked: "Brother Nan Xing, I am looking for you this time because of the intention of my mother-in-law Chun Ci. I just want to ask you, what is the marriage contract between you and my girl? Don’t count?”
"When did I say not to count?" Yin Nanxing's expression suddenly changed.
"That's good!" Dai Miaocheng didn't seem to notice his expression and continued: "Grandma Chunci said that she doesn't care who we young masters like or play with, but the marriage contract between the two families cannot be broken casually. "
"I know." Yin Nanxing replied in a muffled voice.
The words didn't make sense, and for a while the two of them stopped talking, and Yin Nanxing even turned his head towards the window.
A familiar figure that he hated passed downstairs and walked towards the shipyard.
He also saw Dai Miaoying. The two greeted her warmly and walked into the shipyard together.
Yin Nanxing's heart moved.
Is this Yang Zhen also going to take the exam for the alchemy class?
