Although there were many people in the Wanyin Pavilion, they were much smaller than those in the Zhengming Pavilion. Not long after, Ye Shu and Yan Changlan had successfully walked into it, and were led by one person to the place where the music cultivators were certified - a In a rather large house.
In this house, there was a female cultivator playing the flute. The sound of her flute flew straight into the sky, loud and exciting.
There were many monks who also entered the room, some came alone, and some were accompanied by others like Ye Shu.
As soon as Ye Shu listened to a verse, he noticed a fierce attack coming from the flute sound. The target of the attack was precisely him and Yan Changlan! Ye Shu's brows moved slightly, and with a touch of his fingers, a long harp appeared in front of him. With a flick of his hand, several notes came out, clanking, and soon it was like a stream of water blocking the front of the two people. He resisted the attack.
At the same time, the sound attack also went to the other monks. If they came alone, the person who was attacked would be the person themselves, but if they were accompanied by someone, both of them would be hit.
However, this attack could not do anything to Ye Shu. In the blink of an eye, he had reacted and successfully blocked it. Then he stopped playing the piano and just quietly watched the movements of other music cultivators.
Some of the Yin cultivators who entered the area reacted very quickly, while others were stunned for a while. Therefore, among those who reacted quickly, some resisted as quickly as Ye Shu, while others failed to block despite resisting. Naturally, those who were stunned were all hit, their minds were buzzing, and this authentication failed.
Next, another sound attack came. Ye Shu still raised the strings and trembled, and a long note floated away. He quickly blocked the attack again, protecting himself and Yan Changlan again.
Yan Changlan is not a stupid person. If he immediately noticed the attack and killing intention in the tune, he immediately made a move with his sword, but Ye Shu was half a step faster before he stopped it. Then he later realized that this move was actually a move. He couldn't do the test. But he also believed in Ye Shu. Sure enough, in his opinion, Ye Shu was the one who responded most quickly among all the monks.
After about three rounds, those with dizziness and tinnitus all failed the certification. There were more than dozens of music practitioners, and only three of them could really survive these rounds.
Ye Shu is naturally one of them.
Those who fail come out in anger, but those who stay are still tested.
Ye Shu held the piano and Yan Changlan stood aside. He saw someone taking out a large gong and placing it in front of several people.
I saw the female cultivator put down the field, with a smile on her face: "Everyone, please come forward one by one, and use your strongest tune to attack this gong with a cup of tea. If the gong rings more than seven times, it will be considered passed. .”
Ye Shu understood.
A cup of tea is probably the end of a song. If the gong still can't sound seven times after the song is over, it naturally means that the attack and killing ability is too poor. At this moment, it cannot be allowed to obtain the status of music cultivator.
Ye Shu came late and ranked third.
The first person was a female cultivator. She smiled brightly and took the lead in taking out a konghou, holding it upright in front of her. Her slender fingers quickly plucked the strings. The melody was clear and her fingering was very fast. After a while, it was already in the air. Several more invisible sound wave ripples appeared, and they suddenly rushed towards the big gong!
"哐——"
A long gong sound sounded. Although the sound was not weak, it was also pleasant to the ears.
There was a trace of joy on the female nun's face. She kept playing, and her waist moved in an instant. When her fingertips moved, it seemed as if several afterimages were drawn, which made people dazzled and unable to see clearly.
Immediately afterwards, the gong sounded again, bang! Bang! Bang——
The song was less than halfway through, and the gong had already sounded seven times. After the female cultivator breathed a sigh of relief, she stopped playing the konghou and stopped playing.
The female cultivator stood up and bowed.
The female nun playing the flute smiled and said, "You have passed. Just go out on the right side and get your voucher."
The female cultivator Konghou was very happy and left briskly.
Then, another music cultivator walked forward. He was a monk who looked to be in his fifties. His hair was slightly gray, and his expression seemed to have been vicissitudes of life, but he carried an aura that had been steeped in music for many years.
I just don’t know why this person came to Wanyin Hall for certification now? But upon careful consideration, it would not be surprising if this person came from outside the country, either to argue or to test his own music in Wanyin Pavilion.
The old music cultivator took out a xun, put it to his lips and played it.
The sound of the xun was long and desolate, and there seemed to be countless stories hidden in it, and it seemed that it had ended his life.
Ye Shu closed his eyes and listened, as if he saw an old man in the mortal world who had a rough life. Although he had glory and more melancholy, in the end he only had a pottery xun left by his beloved wife to accompany him. From then on, he stayed in front of his beloved wife's grave every day. I have been playing for ten years. During these ten years, he unknowingly walked on the path of music cultivation. It seemed that he could still see his beloved wife's voice and smile in countless tunes. He also heard that if he was destined to live a long life, he might be able to find his beloved wife reincarnated. , so I came here with one heart... After that, it took many years to build the foundation, until now...
In the sound of the xun, with the ups and downs of emotions, the gong was struck one after another, but after seven times, the old music practitioner did not stop, but played all the songs. Then it slowly stopped, and the aftertaste was so long that the female cultivator playing the flute couldn't help but smile wider. She loved the meaning of the music.
The flute-playing female cultivator smiled and said, "Old sir, please go out on the right side and collect your voucher."
The old Yin cultivator nodded slightly towards the female cultivator, bowed, and then walked to the right unhurriedly.
Of course, the only one left was Ye Shu.
Ye Shu opened his eyes, took a few steps forward with Qin in his arms.
He didn't play any melody like the first two people did, but twisted the strings and suddenly played towards the big gong. A sound wave rushed quickly, and in just a moment, the big gong screamed! Then the second time, the third time... He played the strings seven times, causing the strings to burst out seven notes. Each note made the big gong ring, and its sound was extremely bright.
After seven beats, Ye Shu looked at the flute-playing female cultivator.
The female flute player was also a little stunned, but she still said: "Passed, please go out on the right to get the voucher."
Ye Shu nodded slightly to her and walked to the right with Yan Changlan.
It's not that he can't play a song, it's just...why do he need to do one more thing if he can play it seven times?
After exiting on the right side, it is like a small room.
There was a golden elixir monk in this small room. When he saw Ye Shu coming over, he took out a jade talisman, wrote the word "Wanyin" on it, and asked Ye Shu to carve his name on it.
Ye Shu paused briefly, but what was engraved on it was the word "Ye Piao".
Yan Changlan also saw it and was slightly surprised.
Afterwards, the Jindan monk quickly took out the seal of Wanyin Pavilion and marked the jade talisman, which showed that "Ye Chao" was tested in Wanyin Pavilion and had the identity of a music cultivator from then on.
Ye Shu took the jade talisman and put it away, thanked the golden elixir monk, and walked out with Yan Changlan.
Yan Changlan was thinking about "Ye Cha" in his mind. Although he didn't show his expression, he couldn't hide it from Ye Shu, who knew him very well.
Ye Shu only said to him: "It's just a pseudonym."
Yan Changlan suddenly realized that he had been thinking too much.
However, because the Zhengming Conference was just two days away, Ye Shu didn't want to waste time, so he took Yan Changlan and went to the Zhengming Building again to apply first, and then use Yan Changlan as the Zhengming monk and him as the music cultivator to participate in the meeting on his own initiative. A test.
Yan Changlan had no objection, and the two quickly arrived at Zhengming Tower.
But there were more people coming in and out of the building. They waited in line for several hours before they could enter the building. Then the two of them went to see the two monks just like when Ye Shu and Ruan Hongyi went there together. It's just that the people we meet this time are different from the couple we met before, but two other people - the male cultivator is also a golden elixir cultivator, and the female cultivator is in the late stage of foundation building.
It seemed that these two were not Taoist couples, but companions with deep feelings, and their expressions also showed a tacit understanding.
The process was no different from that assessment. First, the male cultivator tested Yan Changlan.
Yan Changlan did not use all his skills. He took out the Lanfeng Sword and used his light swordsmanship to deal with the male cultivator. After several rounds, he really won the male cultivator's approval.
Next, the female cultivator played the piano, but Ye Shu resisted.
Ye Shu was much better than Ruan Hongyi in terms of musical attainments. He and the female cultivator played opposite each other, not only blocking all the opponent's piano sounds, but also counterattacking, with ease and ease, and gained recognition.
Finally, it is the test of the tacit understanding between Yan Changlan and Ye Shu.
The two testers stood up, one in front, and the other followed closely under the wings.
Ye Shu and Yan Changlan were different. They stood side by side. As soon as Yan Changlan took one step, he quickly started fighting with the male cultivator. Almost at the same moment, Ye Shu and the female cultivator played together, and their notes collided. The lingering aftertaste was absorbed into the attacks of Yan Changlan and the male cultivator respectively, adding strength to them.
In the blink of an eye, the two sides have been fighting for several rounds. When Yan Changlan and the male cultivator were intertwined, Ye Shu quickly turned around and avoided the male cultivator's attack. The female cultivator also quickly avoided the attack, and they were indistinguishable... ...After several times, Ye Shu could always follow Yan Changlan's changes in body shape and change his location. The same was true for female cultivators. Although Yan Changlan's strength was far inferior to that of Jindan Zhenren, male cultivators could not show all their strength and their realm was also limited. It made them deal with it for a while...
After nearly a stick of incense had passed, the male cultivator took the initiative to stop.
Ye Shu and Yan Changlan turned around and stood side by side again. Their tacit understanding was vaguely better than the two monks who were undergoing the assessment.
What else can we say about male and female cultivators?
The two of them naturally passed the test.
