After dinner, everyone was taken back to Courtyard No. 9. Yuan Chu warned Wu Fan and the others again before going back. After a tiring day, the teenagers finally filled their stomachs, and then they felt sleepy and fell asleep one after another.
At this time, Wu Fan, who was lying on the bed, couldn't calm down. He finally heard the news about Wu Hao, but it was not what Wu Fan expected in his heart. It was even the opposite. He didn't even know whether Wu Hao was dead or alive. , a feeling of resentment could not help but arise in his pure heart.
Wufan's breathing quickened as his hatred intensified, and the red smoke in his blood became restless and rushed through his body, making the blood turn red as if it was boiling, and the veins and veins were clearly visible. Now it appeared on the surface of his skin, turning his originally fair skin into something like red paint, as if blood could ooze out at any time. Wu Fan opened his mouth and breathed desperately but could not make a sound. His body was trembling as his body temperature rose, and his closed eyes were already bloodshot.
At this moment, the purple sachet on Wu Fan's chest seemed to sense the abnormality of its owner, and its entire body emitted a purple light. And this light seemed to be alive, directly covering the surface of Wu Fan's body, and a hissing sound was heard. A layer of steam was generated on the surface of Wu Fan's skin, and the temperature slowly dropped, and then his breathing became... Slowly calming down, he fell into a drowsy sleep.
At dawn the next day, Wu Fan was woken up by a loud noise and felt a dull pain in his head. He only remembered that he had been thinking about Wu Hao since he came back yesterday, and he didn't know when he fell asleep. I vaguely remember having a strange dream, in which a red figure and a purple figure were fighting, and the tinkling sound lingered in my ears.
Now that I think about it, I think it might be because I was suddenly in a noisy environment and I felt uncomfortable. Wu Fan took a few deep breaths to calm down, washed his face and regained consciousness, then changed into the clothes of a Jade Pot Sect disciple that had been delivered to him early in the morning. After getting dressed, he followed everyone to the mountain gate to wait for the "stupid donkey" real person. He didn't know how this guy would make things difficult for them. Thinking about the treatment he would receive in the future, he couldn't help but sigh...
At dawn on the East Peak, the weather was still a little cool and very humid. There were several teenagers standing neatly in front of the mountain gate. They were all looking left and right, with a kind of suspicion on their faces, and they were discussing something among themselves in whispers. "Do you think we came early?" "No, that Lu Chun clearly told us to gather earlier!" "Did he forget us? Maybe he won't come, right?"
These were Wu Fan and his group who came out early in the morning. They had been waiting here for a while, but they didn't even see a donkey, let alone Lu Chun. Therefore, I couldn't hold back my heart. From the hazy sunrise in the early morning to noon, I still didn't see Lu Chun.
At this time, everyone's stomachs were growling with hunger, so they decided to go back for lunch first. At this moment, I heard a sinister laugh coming from outside the mountain gate: "Hey, hey, it seems that the patience of this Dongfeng disciple is really bad?"
Everyone looked around and saw Lu Chun yawning and slowly walking up the mountain along the stone steps with a playful expression on his face. From the looks of it, it was obvious that he had arrived a long time ago, but he was hiding aside and watching their jokes. The group of people who originally planned to go back for dinner had no choice but to stop. You looked at me and I looked at you at a loss.
Lu Chunren's eyes rolled in confusion, then he smiled cunningly and shouted loudly: "After all, I am entrusted by others, so I should be responsible for your cultivation. I usually have very strict requirements for my disciples! See you are so Spirit, then start training now! There is a pile of stones by the lake that I have marked. You should go to the foot of the mountain to get a piece immediately, and then move it back here! If you do not come back within an hour, or if the stone is found randomly on the way, Then don't blame me for being merciless, hahaha... Get out of here! Don't wait any longer!" After saying these words, Master Lu Chun went to the side to rest. Even though everyone complained, he ignored them. reason.
Although everyone was very angry when they saw Lu Chun's arrogant attitude, Lu Chun had a despicable character, but he was also capable of some tricks. If he got too argumentative, he might not be punished. Then they all swallowed their anger and ran down the mountain in silence.
It was very easy to go down the mountain. Accompanied by the rustling of the trees on both sides, everyone was chasing me and jumping up and down the steps. It was very pleasant, so it didn't take long to reach the bottom of the mountain.
Looking at the platform in front of them, they seemed to feel the freshness of coming to the Yuhu Sect for the first time yesterday. Yesterday he was an ordinary person, but today he is an official disciple. He has become a disciple of the Yuhu Sect. Apart from wearing a pair of iconic clothes, he seems to be no different from ordinary people. He feels an indescribable emotion in his heart.
There is a pile of stones not far from the entrance, about two feet square, but they are polished smooth and have strange lines carved on them. Someone rolled up his sleeves and tried his best to pick up a stone, but failed to stand firm and fell backwards with a plop and sat on the ground, with a puzzled look on his face. Everyone was very surprised to see him like this, and they all started to move the stone. They all looked relaxed after lifting the stone.
Wu Fan came to a stone and reached out to test it. He found that the stone seemed to be weightless and he hugged it to his chest with a single lift. Look at the people around you talking happily about whether Lu Chun has changed his temper and changed his appearance. Wu Fan frowned, recalling the treacherous face with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and thought that things were definitely not that simple.
Thinking of rushing back for dinner early, the newlyweds hurried back to the mountain holding big rocks. Because I was familiar with the road, I went up the mountain a lot faster this time. But as the journey passed halfway, the stones in my arms felt heavier and heavier, and the temperature became higher and higher. At first, everyone didn't care, thinking it was because they had been moving for a long time, so they felt heavier.
But later, when someone was about to take a rest, they discovered that there seemed to be a suction force on the surface of the stone. No matter how hard it was shaken, it could not be broken away, as if it had grown into the hand. I couldn't help but panic, but I had no choice but to turn around, dragging the stone with my back and grit my teeth as I climbed up. Some of them couldn't move it and just lay down on the ground. Although the surface of the stone was a little hot, the temperature stopped increasing when they stopped. They might as well just stay here and wait for punishment.
In order to save energy, Wu Fan did not rush along like everyone else. When he reached the mountainside, he found that everyone had slowed down and was also confused. But when he continued to move forward, he also discovered something strange. The weight of the stone in his hand increased exponentially, and the temperature gradually increased. Gradually, his speed exceeded everyone else.
After taking a few more steps forward, no one around could hold it anymore, so they all gave up. Wu Fan was left to grit his teeth and persist. The stone in his arms was like a small volcano, weighing Wu Fan unable to stand up. His hands and chest were burned red. The sweat dripped onto the stone surface and was quickly evaporated. Wu Fan was breathing heavily, and his consciousness became blurred. Only his body was left dragging himself forward with the weight.
Step after step, his whole body slowly turned red, not knowing whether it was because of the burning heat of the stone. At this moment, purple light flashed, and Wu Fan felt that the temperature on his body seemed to have dropped, and his consciousness became much clearer. Although the stone looked as red as a soldering iron, he felt a warm current wrapping around his hands and chest. , actually quite comfortable. The stone in his hand was no longer so heavy. He quickened his pace and looked at the top of the mountain right in front of him.
One-third of the time for burning incense had passed, and Wu Fan finally reached the top of the mountain out of breath. He looked around and saw no sign of Lu Chun, and he couldn't put down the stone. He wanted to scratch his head anxiously, but he couldn't move. He walked under the tree and felt his hands loosen. The stone smashed into the soil under the tree with a bang, leaving a big hole, which shocked him.
At the same time, leaves fell from the tree next to him, and then something fell down. It landed on the stone and jumped up with a roar. Wu Fan took a closer look and saw that it was Na Lu Chunren. Lu Chunren slapped the stone and stood up. The lines on the stone were erased and became a bit darker. Lu Chun didn't notice, and yelled cursingly: "Who the hell is doing this? You are really rebelling. How dare you disturb my sleep?" Looking back, he saw Wu Fan standing by the side, "Why didn't you go down the mountain to move the rocks? Want to be lazy? There is no way!"
Wu Fan felt unhappy, thinking that the master asked him to train everyone, but this guy was lazy here, but on the surface he still said calmly: "Tell me, Master, I have completed the task." "What?" Although Lu Chun He is a sneaky person, but he is not stupid, and he will probably understand it when he wakes up. It's just that he clearly added a layer of curse seals on the training stones in order to prevent these disciples from completing the task, but how come this kid finished it unscathed?
Lu Chun took a peek at Wu Fan's hand, which was only slightly red, and felt doubtful. "You go over there first and stay away from me!" Seeing Wu Fan walking away, he turned back to check the stone and found that one of the curse seals was indeed broken. The doubts in his heart were alleviated, and he quickly removed the stone. The curse mark is cleared. Wu Fan sat quietly on the steps going down the mountain, unaware that he was walking around on the edge of death.
After a long time, Lu Chun felt better when no one came up. He glanced at Wu Fan again, thinking that you got an advantage, but you will have a better time tomorrow. Then he muttered the words: "Earth, water, fire, metal, wood, metal, water, wood, fire, earth, earth is coming!" I saw an exclamation coming from the bottom of the mountain, and behind each stone was a small tail running on the ground, rushing towards the mountain.
As the rocks fell to the ground with a thud, these disciples felt depressed and lay on the ground without getting up. Lu Chun took advantage of people's unpreparedness and secretly erased the curse marks on each stone. Then he cast a spell to send the stones away. He cursed "waste" and left without looking back. It took a lot of energy for everyone to move the rocks, and they didn't have lunch at noon. They were all tired and hungry, and in no mood to chat, so they quietly walked back to No. 9 Courtyard.
Back in the yard, after Wu Fan washed himself, he looked down at his reddish hands. Thinking about whether his strength had become stronger again, he shook his head and put his worries aside, touching the place where the sachet was placed on his chest, his mood became quiet and sad.
After an unknown amount of time, Wu Fan heard someone shouting in the distance. When he walked out of the yard, he saw Yuan Chu waving and shouting: "Brothers, dinner is ready!" It was the happy moment of the day again, and this group of people He followed Yuan Chu happily. At the dinner table, Yuan Chu inquired about what happened today, and Wu Fan explained the incident in detail.
When Wu Fan mentioned that the stone was getting hotter and hotter, Yuan Chu frowned: "From your description, this should be a kind of curse seal, called the 'Li Fen Seal'. In the past, it was carved on the bodies of slaves to prevent them from escaping." Yes, if the distance is too far, the host will burn directly to death." "But Brother Yuan, I didn't feel any changes in my body when I reached the top of the mountain?" "Oh? Then I'm not sure if that's the case, after all, this kind of thing Being despised by the righteous way, you should not appear in the Yuhu Sect, otherwise you would have reached the top of the mountain???" At the end of the words, Yuan Chu shouted directly.
Then the room fell into silence. Seeing everyone staring at him like a monster, Wu Fan looked puzzled, "Brother Yuan, Brother Huo, what's wrong with you..."
