"Huh, the peaceful days have been too long. They want to plot against me to pick immortals. Qianqiu, why did you let them go back in the end? It would be better to kill this emperor's bastard. This should be used as a warning to him." Zhen Shifang was very angry. said
"Hei Lao, these three people are no longer tolerated in the world of martial arts. They have been diagnosed as a cult and will never go there. Now they can only seek refuge in the imperial court. Since they have no retreat, they will never tell the little emperor what will happen tonight. What happened? Let them tell the little emperor according to our wishes, save their lives, and also cover a period of time for the immortal master." Qianqiu shook his head and explained to Zhen Shifang
Feng Wuhen said worriedly at this time: "These three people were sent by the imperial court, which means..."
"Then there are still people who are from the evil sect. We haven't found out who they are and where they are hiding." Saint Qianqiu took over the words: "However, the Immortal Master has left the state religion, so you don't have to worry. I will enter the country today. The people who teach can’t leave the gate of the state religion at this moment. The Immortal Master has left safely, so don’t worry about the three elders. The people of the cult are extremely cunning. If you don’t catch them this time, forget it. Now is the third trial. It should be over soon. Come with me and take a look."
At this time, under the altar of the state religion, the person who will challenge the third trial has been selected.
Originally, Fan Zhixian and Ming Yuan had already won, but seeing that everyone was too dissatisfied with the third trial, finally, with the approval of Venerable Nianhua, they came to the altar one after another and jumped down. Fan Zhixian borrowed a special bamboo umbrella, but Ming Yuan used a light skill that no one had ever seen before. His figure was like a paper kite, flying back and forth in the air, and slowly falling down.
Both candidates fell behind, and no one else was saying anything. Start thinking about how to land safely on the ground.
A man came to borrow Fan Zhixian's bamboo umbrella shamelessly, hoping to be like Fan Zhixian and use the power of the bamboo umbrella to easily pass the test.
Venerable Nianhua did not stop him, but the result was shocking. After the man jumped off the altar, a strong wind blew up in the air for no reason. The man floated with the bamboo umbrella for a long time, and finally he let go due to exhaustion and fell to the ground.
Venerable Nian Hua sighed, clasped his hands and said, "Don't force anything if it's not your destiny. Since you're asking Heaven, don't blame Heaven. I hope you don't take any chances."
Seeing this situation, everyone was muttering that this person was so unlucky. But no one dared to use bamboo umbrellas anymore.
Princess Yuehua originally thought that she would be able to pass the trial during the day, but she did not expect that after passing two tests in a row, her two junior sisters had already passed, and she was the only one left. Originally, he was full of confidence in the third trial. But she didn't expect that the third trial would involve her risking her life.
She was a princess conferred by the emperor, and was the granddaughter of King Yizi. With such a respected status, how could she do such a desperate act? She flinched. But he was unwilling to accept that his maid, the abandoned baby adopted by Xianyun Yehe, why the two of them passed the test.
Now that midnight was about to pass, she wanted to slow down time so she could think of a way. But she also wanted time to pass faster so that she could give up completely. At this time of struggle,
Venerable Nianhua said: "It's already..."
The princess finally felt a sense of relief in her heart, but this feeling just came to her heart. But she pressed it down fiercely. Why are you so cowardly?
No, this is not cowardice, it is something that cannot be done.
But why, others can, why can’t I? What am I afraid of!
"Look, someone jumped down again!" Just as Princess Yuehua was struggling, she suddenly heard someone shouting
But when I saw a woman on the altar, she jumped down without hesitation.
"Yes... it's Ye Qingcheng from Yashan!" Princess Yuehua finally saw this person's appearance and couldn't help but exclaimed softly.
But at this time, Chu Mu felt nervous and shouted: "Second brother, go quickly!"
Before he finished speaking, a black shadow flew out from the crowd. The black shadow flew straight towards Ye Qingcheng in mid-air at a speed that could not be reached! When he was about four feet off the ground, he finally hugged Ye Qingcheng, who was falling rapidly. Then two more figures flew out from the crowd. The four of them worked together and finally stabilized Ye Qingcheng just before falling. The four of them fell to the ground and scattered.
Chu Mu squeezed out of the crowd and helped the fourth child up: "Fourth child, are you okay?" The anxiety was palpable.
Ye Qingcheng seemed to have suffered internal injuries. He suppressed the desire to vomit blood and smiled at Chu Mu: "I'm sorry, senior brother, for making you worry. I was too willful."
After saying that, Ye Qingcheng passed out and the other three were Gu Wu, Wu Qi and Changsun Wufang. Several people walked over in a hurry, regardless of their injuries.
At this time, the bells in the state church reminded me of the midnight hour.
Lord Nianhua walked up to Ye Qingcheng and checked her injuries. Then nodded: "The third trial, Ye Qingcheng passed."
Princess Yuehua couldn't help shouting at this time: "What, she's not dead? Even if she's not dead, why can she pass the test? She relied on the power of four people to survive. Does this count?"
Venerable Nianhua looked at Princess Yuehua, seeming to feel sorry for her, but also a little helpless towards her: "Princess, as long as you fall from the altar, you will pass the third competition, whether you rely on people, things, or yourself. Even if you rely on yourself. It was you who tied the rope and climbed down from the altar. This level has been passed."
"This...this...why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Venerable Nianhua shook his head and said, "Why don't you try it?"
"I..." Princess Yuehua looked at Master Nianhua speechlessly.
Venerable Nianhua ignored her and announced to everyone: "It's past midnight, and the third trial of the national religion election has ended. Only Ye Qingcheng passed the trial. Everyone, the three trials of the national religion have been completed. This time The general election has come to an end, but at midnight tomorrow, I invite you all to attend the final ceremony of the National Church election. At that time, the National Church will send you a heartfelt message. Among the many books of the National Church, I will send you a selection. I hope you will not be late tomorrow."
Everyone in the audience was talking about Master Nianhua saying that holding a rope would count as passing the test, and most people were indignant. Originally, after tonight, the state religion had offended all the people from many sects. Two years ago, the state religion released the news that it would choose a saint. Many people started preparing early, but they did not expect that these three trials would turn out to be so weird. Unexpected. Although many people were forced by the status of the state religion, they did not say anything. But after tonight, the name of the state religion may have some influence on the world. But Venerable Nianhua said that gifts would be prepared for tomorrow and everyone could participate. The state religion includes a lot of martial arts. If you can get one and a half moves tomorrow, it will not be in vain this time.
In this way, the day of the vigorous national football election ended, but tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. The little emperor was waiting for news about the three men in the palace. Everyone from Yashan Tianjimen surrounded Ye Qingcheng and worried about her injury. In the state religion, Saint Qianqiu and others originally wanted to catch all the spies sent by the emperor and the cult, but in the end they found no sign of the cult. This made them slightly worried.
Just after dawn the next day, the Imperial Preceptor was summoned to the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. When the Imperial Preceptor arrived, two of the three men who went to spy on the news yesterday were kneeling on the ground. Only the man who had been questioned by Xiaoyaozi for his confession was kneeling on the ground. No trace.
The emperor looked at them and asked one last question: "Are you telling the truth?"
The female among the three scholars replied: "Your Majesty, everything we said is true, even though the eldest brother has been seriously injured. We still got the news. The Qianqiu Saint and Wu An Gong were talking about the northwest, the giant merchants in the northwest His life and death are unknown at the moment. Saint Qianqiu wants Mr. Wu An to go and check the truth and see if he can be replaced."
"Going to the northwest? Li Wenyuan is missing? Why don't I know about this? Where are the spies in charge of the northwest? Why have you never reported this?"
"This..." The woman and the man next to her looked at each other, and finally the man said: "Your Majesty, there seems to be movement from the Three Tribulations Sect in the northwest. We have sent several groups of people but no news has come back. Our methods cannot be concealed from the Three Tribulations Sect, and I am afraid that the northwest has really been infiltrated by them. I originally wanted to find out the truth before making a report. We failed to fulfill our responsibilities, please punish your Majesty."
The little emperor was a little surprised when he heard the name of the Three Tribulations Sect: "Three Tribulations Sect? It's actually them." Then he looked at the two people kneeling on the ground from the corner of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid? Already?"
The two men were lying on the ground and said in fear: "We will go through fire and water for His Majesty, even if we die!"
"Okay, since you have found out that Mr. Wu An is going to the northwest, then you can pack up and follow him secretly. I want to know everything he says and does in the northwest. Your eldest brother is too seriously injured, so he should rest in the Tai Hospital."
The two of them laughed bitterly at each other when they heard that the little emperor wanted to keep their eldest brother. The little thought in my heart was completely extinguished.
"According to the order."
"Well, let's go down."
After sending the two soldiers away, the little emperor remembered that he was only wearing obscene clothes. After waving, the young eunuch and palace maid next to him hurried over. While everyone was waiting on the little emperor, he said to the Imperial Preceptor: "The Imperial Preceptor hasn't had his meal yet. Go and pass on the meal, and I will chat with the Imperial Preceptor while we eat."
The Imperial Master had already made up his mind when he came, but he didn't expect that the Little Emperor would let him hear that the Second Master was going to the northwest to follow Du Jie. The Imperial Master was thinking about the danger of Du Jie going to the northwest. Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the young emperor ask: "National Master, do you know the origins of these three scholars?"
"I don't know."
"These three people have quite some backgrounds. They came from the imperial sect earlier and were disciples of the Buddhist sect. The great monk said that they were greedy, angry and ignorant and kicked them out. Later they joined the Three Tribulations Sect and all they did was refining corpses of living people. A few years later, they made a big mistake in the Three Tribulations Sect. Only then did they come to serve the imperial court."
The Imperial Master's expression suddenly changed at this time, and he looked back at the place where the two soldiers left: "Your Majesty, do you think they are the Three Poisons of Shimen?"
