After the girls finished their meal, Ju Mujin assigned them separate rooms.
Each person’s code number is hung on a wooden sign on the wall, from 004 to 005, then to 012, arranged in order...
These rooms will be their future training places. Although they are not large, they are a space exclusive to each of them.
Jin Qiao opened the door of her room, and a fresh breath filled the room.
The bed was covered with white quilts, and a bouquet of flowers was placed on the table. The sunlight coming from the window shone on the floor, reflecting a warm light and shadow.
She felt a special kind of honor, which was her identity in this dark hall. Carefully hang the code on the door.
Later, the girls were invited to bathe in the bathhouse behind the courtyard.
Jin Qiao took off her clothes and walked lightly into the bath.
The water temperature is suitable, and the clear water shimmers in the sun.
She felt the touch of water droplets sliding over her skin, as if a trace of peace and comfort flowed in her heart.
She saw Ju Mujin and Zhao Ling'er also taking off their clothes and jumping into the water. They were playing in the water, enjoying the quiet and relaxing moment.
Jin Qiao noticed that both Zhao Ling'er and Ju Mujin had a red line on their lower abdomens, as if they were birthmarks.
This red line seemed to have a special meaning. She wanted to know its origin and significance...
Afterwards, the girls each returned to their rooms to rest.
Jin Qiao was lying on the bed, her thoughts echoing...
She remembered the fight with the bandits in the forest, Zhao Ling'er's constant emphasis on hiding the dagger, and the bright red on her lower abdomen, which seemed to represent an identity and mission, and she longed to have it.
She imagined her future path of spiritual practice, full of expectations and challenges.
She must work hard to practice and become a true immortal cultivator.
The next day, nine painters entered Lelou and painted portraits of nine women.
Jin Qiao put on a fancy dress and sat in front of the painter with a restrained temperament.
The artist used his brush to capture her appearance and temperament...
In the afternoon, nine pictures of ladies were sent to Tianchifang, the study room of the owner.
Jin Qiao imagined the owner's expression when he saw her portrait, hoping that her appearance would leave a deep impression on him.
In the evening, after the girls had dinner together, Ju Mujin announced: "Tonight Zero Zero Four will meet the master. Zhao Linger and Zero Zero Four will take a bath together in the evening. You need to wait until we leave before you can use the bath."
When the girls heard the news, they all looked at Zero Zero Four, their eyes full of expectation and curiosity.
A woman asked curiously: "Can Zero Four practice?"
Ju Mujin nodded, which made the girls look forward to Zero Zero Four's future even more.
Another woman asked: "How long do we have to wait?"
Ju Mujin replied with a serious look: "The ceremony to start the path of cultivation is very complicated. Only one person can start the practice every day, and this will also make the master quite tired. He needs to rest properly, but you don't have to worry, one Within the month, everyone can start practicing."
When the girls heard the news, their faces were filled with anticipation and excitement. They knew that the time for them to step into the world of cultivating immortals would come soon.
Ju Mujin warned: "Don't eat too much, Zero Zero Four!"
At this time, Jin Qiao was nervous and excited. She quickly put down her bowls and chopsticks, and the exquisite food became tasteless.
She knew that for tonight's practice ceremony, she needed to keep her body pure and sensitive.
After the meal, Ju Mujin and Zhao Linger took Jin Qiao to the bathtub.
Jin Qiao, Ju Mujin and Zhao Linger took off their clothes and stepped into the pool...
Water droplets slipped from their bodies and fell into the pool, causing ripples.
The breeze blows, and the water mist on the water floats away, like a veil, rendering their figures even more blurry.
Their skin shimmered in the water vapor, like pearls.
Jin Qiao pointed at the blush on Zhao Linger's abdomen and asked curiously: "Sister Zhao, what is this?"
Zhao Ling'er smiled softly and said, "This is a mark. After tonight, you will have it too."
Jin Qiao felt even more excited and expectant when she heard this answer. She guessed: "Could it be the mark of a cultivator?"
Ju Mujin gently stroked the blush on his lower abdomen and said mysteriously: "The master used a special method to leave this. For us, it is just the icing on the cake, but for you, it is the foundation of spiritual practice." . You have to remember that everyone in the dark hall has this mark."
Jin Qiao stepped forward curiously and continued to ask: "What on earth is this?"
"This is Xuanji's blood poison." Ju Mujin explained gently.
"Poison?" Jin Qiao showed a surprised expression.
"What's wrong with poison? As members of the Dark Hall, intelligence spying and assassination are our responsibilities, and poison is indispensable in this process." Ju Mujin explained gently.
Jin Qiao said slightly worriedly: "I'm just worried about doing harm to myself."
"No, Xuanji Blood Poison has the ability to swallow the poison of the five elements. It is the most ferocious among all poisons. It can not only protect itself, but also be used to deal with enemies. Only with Xuanji Blood Poison can one cultivate "Blood Poison" Spider Hand"."
Jin Qiao's eyes flashed with longing, and he asked: "Is "Blood Spider Venomous Hand" really powerful?"
"Of course it's powerful. Ling'er and I don't have spiders as co-ginsmen, so the "Blood Spider Poisonous Hand" is extremely powerful. What's more, in the future, if you use poisonous spiders as co-parameters, the power of "Blood Spider Poison Hands" will be doubled."
Take a long bath...
The three women stood up and put on a transparent gauze dress lightly. The gauze dress was as thin as cicada wings. Even with a belt, it seemed that there was no trace of it on. Their figures are even more graceful and charming against the gauze.
Jin Qiao asked in surprise: "How can you go out dressed like this?"
Zhao Ling'er replied with a smile: "Don't worry, Zero Zero Four, we still need to put on a coat."
Then, they put on a black loose coat over the gauze clothes and put on the hood, which not only completely covered their bodies, but even their faces were not exposed.
"Let's go." Ju Mujin said, his voice coming out through the hood, with a sense of mystery.
It was nightfall at this time, and Tianchifang was under curfew. No business activities were allowed, and people were not allowed to move around at will.
In fact, the three women did not leave Lelou at all, but went to a small room in Lelou.
The room was located at the bottom of the stairs and looked useless, like a closed back room. The room is filled with a light aroma, making people feel peaceful and safe.
The three of them stopped in front of a stone wall, Jin Qiao's face was full of doubts.
Zhao Ling'er cast a red spell, and the red light of the spell flashed on the stone wall, forming strange lines. Then, the stone wall slowly sank into the ground, revealing a dark passage.
Zhao Ling'er waved her hand, and the braziers on both sides of the passage were lit, illuminating a downward stone staircase. The firelight reflected on the bodies of the three women, making their figures even more mysterious and enchanting.
"Let's go down." Ju Mujin said, with a hint of determination in his voice.
After the three people entered the passage, the stone wall slowly rose again, isolating them from the outside world.
The passage was very long and very humid. Jin Qiao could clearly hear the sound of water flowing, which seemed to come from above.
"Above our heads is the drainage ditch of Fangshi. When the original owner built Fangshi, he left this secret passage. No matter how powerful the expert is with his spiritual sense to explore, it is impossible to think that there is a secret passage under the ditch. If it were originally Unless the owner told me, I wouldn't have known there was such a road under Lelou." Ju Mujin sighed, with a hint of admiration in his voice.
"Master and Master always have foresight." Zhao Ling'er also said, with a hint of reverence in his voice.
The three of them slowly entered an underground hall. There was a gloomy atmosphere in the hall, which made people shudder.
The interior of the hall looks extremely strange, with dim lights casting shadows...
At the top of the center of the hall, sitting on a huge stone chair, was a young man. He was tall and straight, his eyes were deep, and he exuded a majestic aura. Standing next to him was Da Zhaoyi Ling Ling Yi, who was wearing a long red palace dress. She was very beautiful, but she seemed particularly abrupt in this gloomy environment.
Jin Qiao followed Ju Mujin and Zhao Linger closely and walked to the man. She felt the man's serious gaze, and she couldn't help but feel nervous in her heart.
Ju Mujin and Zhao Ling'er saluted the man and said respectfully: "I have met the Lord."
The man nodded slightly, his eyes were deep and cold, as if he could see everything.
He is Li Shuidao, the leader of Tianchi Square, and the "Ling" of Antang.
"Let's begin." Li Shuidao said in a deep voice.
Ju Mujin said to Jin Qiao: "Ling Lingsi, take off your coat and lie down on the stone bed."
Jin Qiao nervously took off her coat. The gauze dress she was wearing was as transparent as water, which made her feel ashamed. She could not help but cover her body with her hands and hang her head.
Ju Mujin shouted again: "Zero Zero Four, lie down on the bed."
Only then did Jin Qiao realize that there was a stone bed in the center of this dark hall.
With the help of Ju Mujin and Zhao Ling'er, Jin Qiao didn't even know how he lay down on the stone bed.
The stone bed was cold and smooth, which made Jin Qiao feel chilly. She panted nervously, trying to calm her inner fear.
Suddenly, a mysterious formation shined on the stone bed, tightly adhering Jin Qiao to it, making her unable to move.
Jin Qiao was horrified to find that there were seven copper basins placed around the stone bed, and the basins were filled with various poisonous insects. One pot is densely packed with centipedes, another pot is filled with scorpions, and another pot is filled with red ants...
There are seven such copper basins around the stone bed, all of which are filled with poisonous insects.
Jin Qiao struggled wildly, but was restrained by the strange power on the stone bed and couldn't move.
"Relax, this is the only way for you to obtain Xuanji's poisonous blood. After obtaining it, you will become a powerful poisonous cultivator." Xia Ruoxue's voice carried a strangely calming force.
Jin Qiao no longer struggled, but waited for fate to come.
I saw Xia Ruoxue taking out a dark wooden box from the storage bag. The box exuded a faint smell of blood.
She slowly opened the box and revealed a blood-colored elixir, which was the blood-transforming magic elixir.
Li Shuidao took the elixir, put it in his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it in one gulp...
