Part One: Intertwined Time and Space Chapter Two: The Spiritual Stone of Fate
Chapter 70 Elders
In front of the mountain gate of Mocheng Villa, there were many people standing inside and outside the door.
Yue Qing stood on the first step of the mountain gate. The majestic mountain gate extended upward, and the road inside could not be seen. There was a long way up the flat, wide, winding step road, and there was no end in sight. Yue Qing I saw many branch roads connecting to the main road. Looking up, they could see the mountains that were very close to them. They were lush and layered. Some mountains couldn't even be seen as high as they were filled with smoke. There was only a cliff with the characters "Mocheng Villa" written on it next to the mountain gate blocking the right side. Although there was still some distance from the mountain gate, Yue Qing felt a pressure, as if she was standing on the edge of the cliff. There are also rugged rocks on the left, and looking further into the distance, there are still continuous mountain peaks.
It is indeed a villa, a villa in the mountains, oh no, a city in the mountains.
Yue Qing looked at the row of people in front of her who had just floated down from the mountain.
All the Green Guards and Red Guards behind Yue Qing bent down and said, "I have met all the elders."
"Okay, okay. Thank you all for your hard work," said the leading old man.
The old woman, the Seventh Elder, stepped forward and said eagerly: "Fifth Elder, this is the spirit daughter of Yuqing."
The fifth elder who walked in front of Yue Qing said: "Yes, I have fulfilled my mission and brought Yu Qing back."
The old woman looked at herself and said excitedly: "You have grown so big. Come on, let me see the child."
Yueqing hesitated for a moment and glanced at her brother.
The elder brother smiled: "Yu Qing, these are the elders. This is the seventh elder."
Yue Qing looked at them, bent down and saluted, "I've met all the elders." Then she raised her head and said, "I'm back to take the test."
The elders nodded for her polite behavior. The great elder stepped forward and said, "Don't talk here, Yuqing finally came back. Someone come and prepare the sedan quickly." After saying that, he looked at her with a smile, no matter how satisfied he looked.
The seventh elder also came up and took Yue Qing's hand, "What a spiritual child. I hugged you when you were just born. You really lived up to expectations."
Yue Qing did not hide away, and let her hold hands and said: "Elders, there is no need to prepare a sedan. Is there still a long way ahead? Someone can carry me up." She turned around and looked at her brother. "elder brother."
All the elders looked at each other, and the eldest elder coughed lightly: "Don't worry, there are still some things to do before the test, and Yuqing doesn't know the rules of the test yet. Let's go up and talk slowly."
Yue Qing is fine once she hears it.
"Brother. Let's go."
"Okay." Chang Yuxiao signaled to the elder, hugged her and flew up. A group of people were left behind. The fifth elder coughed lightly: "Just get used to it, Yu Qing is a good child."
Yueqing sat on her brother's body, looking at the scenery receding around her. The only thing you can't do is fly fast.
"Brother, where is that place over there?"
"That's the courtyard where the masters of the villa live."
"Are they the other spirit girls? Are they all in that area?"
"Yes. That is the center of the villa, and it is also the largest area in the villa. It is surrounded by the main hall of the villa, the Elder's House, the Law Enforcement Hall, the Deacon Hall, the Medicine Hall, the Ceremony Hall, and the Guard Station. There are also training areas, kitchen areas, living areas and other places inside. You will understand it slowly, and the elders will send someone to teach you."
"Oh, where's the test?"
"Going further inside, there is a special place for setting up an altar."
"Oh." As he said that, his brother had already brought her to the main hall of the villa.
"Is this the Lord here?"
"Yes, the elders will discuss various matters in the meeting hall of the main hall." Yue Qing followed her brother back and saw the elders and red guards leaving one after another.
The elders in the meeting hall, Yue Qing, several red guards, and Cai'er and Qing'er who had returned from the palace were all in the hall.
Several elders were sitting opposite, with Chang Rong, Chang Bai, and Chang Liu standing behind them.
Yue Qing is the only one sitting here. Including her brother, Chang Huai, Chang Song, Cai'er and Qing'er are all standing behind her.
The first elder asked: "Yu Qing, I have already heard what the fifth elder said about your needs, and I also call you Yu Qing like the fifth elder. Can I ask why you are so anxious?"
Yue Qing thought to herself: If there is anyone here who knows the most about spirit stones, this group of people should have the most say. She wanted to take a gamble. She might as well tell them her dilemma in a different way, not knowing what kind of results she would get.
She stood up, came to several elders, bowed down with a smile and said, "Of course you can call me Yuqing, elder. Yuqing is not sensible. I want to say hello to the elders and apologize to all the elders for my previous rudeness."
Several elders stood up, and the eldest elder hurriedly came over to pull her: "Spirit Girl, get up quickly. This is impossible. We won't be able to receive the gift from the Spirit Girl."
Yue Qing stood up and looked at the Fifth Elder, "Especially the Fifth Elder, I have to apologize to you, as well as all the Red Guard uncles, as well as Cai'er and Qing'er. I didn't know before that I always thought about you. I was worried about you, so I thought of teasing you. During the past two days, you worked hard to protect each other, and I realized how ignorant I was before. Uncle Huai also made you travel to and from the villa in a day, which made you tired. I've been so rude to you these past few days, everyone, I'm really sorry. But I do have my reasons." As she said this, she bowed to everyone.
Everyone didn't know why she came out like this and froze in place.
Chang Song said with a smile: "The spirit girl is really embarrassing us. The spirit girl is sincere and easy to get along with. Moreover, we are not yet uncle's age, so the spirit girl can just call us by our names. There is no need to call us uncle."
Yue Qing smiled.
Chang Huai also said: "Yuqing, don't worry, it is our duty to protect the spirit girl and share her worries."
Yue Qing lowered her head and said: "Although you didn't tell me, I know that there must be many Qingwei who will never come back in the past two days."
The seventh elder sighed and said to her reproachfully: "Girl Yuqing, it turns out you are worried about this matter. Hey, why is your child as sentimental as your mother? As a spiritual daughter, this is not allowed."
Yue Qing is puzzled.
Seventh Elder: "You will understand in the future. The spirit girl's temperament cannot be affected by these external factors. These Qingwei are originally intended to be used in these places. You can't worry about these things in the future."
Yue Qing frowned.
Cai'er hurriedly said: "Yes, miss, Qing'er and I have no grievances. You don't have to care about us."
Yueqing looked at them. No one, including her brother, thought they had anything to say. It seemed that the values here were also very deformed, but these were not important to her now.
Yue Qing said: "Thank you everyone for your tolerance towards me."
The elder smiled and said: "You really want to be a lovable kid, and you look more sensible than the kids at this age. Well, Yuqing, I want to know what your reasons are now."
Yue Qing looked at everyone, "Elders, sit down, I will talk to you now."
She sat down and continued: "I don't know what's going on with me. When I was a child, there was an old man in my dreams who always asked me to stay in my dreams for a long time and teach me something. I stayed with him, and he said he was lonely. At first, I didn’t pay much attention to it, and since I was young, I didn’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. It wasn’t until later that I discovered that the time he allowed me to stay in Dreams would be very long. Even when I wake up, I am still in a daze, and sometimes I don’t remember what I have done. Recently, I feel like I am about to be called in again. I also heard that there is a test in the villa, and it is a very important test. I am very interested in the villa. I am very interested in the test and don’t want to miss this test. So I am very anxious and don’t know when I will enter that mysterious dream again.”
Everyone looked at each other, and the elder looked at Cai'er and the others.
Cai'er knelt down and said, "Excuse me, elder. Cai'er deserves to die. I never noticed it. The young lady never mentioned it."
Qing'er also stepped forward and knelt down.
Yue Qing looked at them: "Grand Elder, there is no need to be angry. I don't blame them. I thought it was just a dream and not that important, so I didn't say anything."
The seventh elder said angrily: "Damn it, how could such an important thing not be discovered?"
Cai'er lowered her head, "Miss, indeed, her personality often changes suddenly. We have made it clear in the letter to the Villa. I just don't know the specific situation of Miss."
"Hmph, you are just protecting the spirit girl like this. You may not know when something happens. If someone pulls you down, Chang Huai and Chang Song will suffer together."
Chang Huai and Chang Song immediately stepped forward and knelt down: "Yes."
Immediately, guards wearing khaki clothes came up to pull people away.
