A desperate roar and a spurt of blood made the beast struggle with his last strength. Seeing that the blow was not dead, Hua Qing'er used the hairpin again, held it all in the palm of her hand, combined it into a bundle, and stabbed the wild boar's neck hard.
Once, twice... It wasn't until the wild boar's neck was covered with holes and it fell limply to the ground covered in blood that Hua Qing'er stopped moving, and then knelt on the ground motionless.
After a long time, Qingya, who was still stunned by the scene just now, came to her senses first and called out softly: "Sister Qing'er."
Only then did Hua Qing'er react, throw away the hairpin in her hand, tears burst out of her eyes instantly, and then she crashed into Qing Ya's arms with a bang, fell on his shoulder and started crying, accompanied by intermittent The words, "Just now... it was so scary just now... I thought... I thought we were going to die here."
Just now she had a murderous and decisive look on her face, but now she is so soft and weak. This cute and pitiful girl has put all her fear behind her, and she didn't even think of being afraid until now. Qing Ya held up her plump face, wiped away the tears on her face and the blood that had just been splashed on her face, and comforted her: "Okay, it's okay now, the trouble is solved, Sister Qing'er, you are so brave, It’s really amazing, she is the most amazing woman in the world.”
Hua Qing'er was immediately amused by him and burst into laughter. She slapped Qing Ya's hand away with an angry smile and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Let's leave quickly. We have already been delayed a lot of time, so we must speed up our pace."
After that, the two arranged their clothes. Qingya took the branch back into his hand, while Hua Qing'er picked up the three hairpins that fell on the ground, wiped the blood on them, and put them back in his pocket. inside.
It wasn't until the two of them left that the Tianyun disciple who was hiding in the dark appeared. He glanced at the wild boar carcass on the ground and couldn't help but sigh, "She is truly a strange woman who is calm in the face of danger and decisive in killing. "
As for someone, this disciple has automatically ignored him.
The sun was gradually setting in the west, and the clouds on the horizon were like being ignited by flames, dyeing the entire sky red. At this time, Qingya and Hua Qing'er were walking through a dense forest.
"Qingya, the sun is about to set. We can't even see the end point. I'm afraid we're going to fail now." Hua Qing'er said breathlessly.
Wiping the sweat on his head, he took a breath and looked at the people around him who had given up and started to go down the mountain. Qingya said slowly: "Sister Qing'er, there is still some time before the sun sets. It's not yet time." It's over, we haven't failed yet. If we still fail to pass this test in the end, it won't make any difference if we leave at that time."
"Furthermore, if we can't see the end, there are two possibilities. One is that it is far away in the horizon, and the other is that although it is not obvious, it is close at hand. Sister Qing'er, don't give up until the end. Come, hold my hand and I will take you away."
"Well, it's up to you."
Hua Qing'er also cheered up again, firmly grasped Qing Ya's wrist, and followed him closely.
Before the last ray of sunset on the horizon dissipated, after the two of them stepped up a few steps, a Tianyun disciple in white robes suddenly appeared next to the two of them, and said with a serious face, "Congratulations to both of you for passing the Tianyun entrance." For the first level of the trial, please keep moving forward, and someone will pick you up in front of you. Although there is not much time left, please don't get excited, and don't explain it to the people behind you, so as not to affect other people's judgment."
After saying that, he glanced at a young man standing not far behind the two who was hesitating whether to continue moving forward. After much hesitation, the young man finally sighed, turned around and left.
Qingya secretly said that it was a dangerous situation. He had just seen Tianyun disciples appearing around people. He thought it was to remind them of the time, or to persuade them to go down the mountain, but when he saw those people walking forward more firmly, I thought it was because of their perseverance, but it turns out they have passed the test.
While I was thankful, I couldn't help but feel a little scared. If I had given up and left with Sister Qing'er just now, it would have been a huge mistake.
This level, on the surface, is to test everyone's physical fitness. After all, people who are too weak will definitely not be able to climb halfway up the Tianyun Mountain in one day. But if you calculate it this way, most people can pass this level, as long as they persist to the end. The biggest test of this level lies in these four words.
Along the way, the more the sun sets, the more people choose to give up, especially at this last moment. Because everyone has no idea at all. Firstly, they can’t see the end point. Secondly, they can’t see the people passing through. At the same time, time is about to end. Under the triple pressure, it is easy to overwhelm people’s psychological defenses and cause them to give up. If you give up at this time, how can you persist in the long years of spiritual practice in the future? This level tests the determination and perseverance to pursue the supreme road.
After a while, the last ray of slanting light disappeared from the sky, and then a sound like a yellow bell sounded from the mountain,
"The first level of Tianyun's entrance trial is over. All unrecognized trialists can leave on their own. They will be escorted on the way down the mountain. Everyone, see you in ten years."
At this moment, night falls, and the dense forest in the mountains is filled with a faint white mist. Looking from a distance, Tianyun Mountain is shrouded in layers of clouds and mist from the mountainside up, making it as dreamlike as a fairy mountain on the sea.
After walking forward for a while, it felt like walking into the depths of a dense forest. At this moment, people who had passed the test before had gathered here. There were about a few hundred people. The originally open space seemed slightly crowded at this time. . Conversations continued among the bustling crowd, mostly talking about today's journey or exchanging greetings between old and new friends. Most people chose to go together before, but now they are talking like old friends for many years. After all, these people are likely to be fellow disciples who will practice together in the future. It will never go wrong to establish a good relationship in advance and make a few more friends. .
Only this silly boy Qing Ya thinks that it is enough for me to have Sister Qing'er. As for the others, he has no interest in getting to know her or making friends with her at all.
Suddenly the crowd became quiet. The old man with the white beard walked up to everyone and said in a leisurely manner: "First of all, congratulations to everyone for passing the first level of Tianyun Mountain's entrance trial. Let's take a short rest first." Then he turned to face A Tianyun disciple said, "Changfeng, lead a few disciples to distribute dry food to everyone."
"Yes, Master."
A disciple with a tall posture and a long sword walked out first, and the other disciples followed him, carrying a big bag, and distributed the dry food to everyone one by one. After a day's trek, everyone was already exhausted. Now that they saw the dry food, their already hungry bodies became even more involuntarily. There were a lot of grunting noises in the crowd, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
Two rice balls and a pot of water, this is everyone's simple dinner tonight. After thanking the disciple, Qingya felt even more hungry, so he sat on the ground and wolfed down the food. Although it is simple, the weight of this rice ball is very real. The rice is fragrant and soft but not mushy. It is also packed with crisp and refreshing vegetables, but it has a unique flavor. Ordinary people only need one to fill their stomach.
Seeing that he hadn't finished one rice ball, Hua Qing'er beside him had already finished two of them, and finally finished the remaining one from Qingya. After drinking half a bottle of water, he licked it with satisfaction. Lips.
Although I already knew that Sister Qing'er had the biggest appetite in Huaying Building during meals on weekdays, I didn't expect that she would eat so fast. Today I can see it. Thinking of this, Qingya quickly stuffed the remaining rice balls into his mouth to prevent it from being snatched away by some snack food. At the same time, he cast his eyes on Hua Qing'er's slender waist and wondered: "There is no reason. With such a big appetite, why is the figure still so slim? Could it be that all the nutrients have gone to where they should go."
"Sister Qing'er is really the most amazing woman in the world. She eats so much and eats so fast. It's really daunting, hahaha." Qingya couldn't help but joked.
After hearing this, Hua Qing'er's cheeks couldn't help but turn red. Although it was true that she had a big appetite, you couldn't say it so clearly. Out of a girl's reserve, Hua Qing'er couldn't help but feel ashamed and annoyed.
"You brat, you are making fun of me again." After saying that, he raised his hands to pull Qingya's face. As the two of them laughed and played, the fatigue of the whole day seemed to have receded like a tide.
In Qiantang County, the night market is still bustling with activity and the sound of hawking is endless. In Huaying Tower, the singing and dancing are still intoxicating.
Hua Wuyi stood quietly outside Qingya's room, looking up into the distance, the clouds and mist in Tianyun Mountain were looming. There was only a towering black shadow reflected in the night sky. The wind on the lake blew up her dress, outlining her plump figure, swaying like an epiphyllum blooming at night. Her eyes were blurry, looking towards the mountains in the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.
I don't know how long it took, but I heard a soft sigh, and saw her walking back to her room on the other side, closing the door, opening the window, and the night wind blew the wind chimes, adding a brisk music to this beautiful night.
