Chapter 274
Chapter 274
Looking through the bronze mirror,
There were more than a hundred children standing at the foot of the mountain, the oldest was no more than fourteen or five years old, and there were even five or six-year-old dolls.
At a glance, it turns out that most of them are wealthy children in brocade clothes, and there is only one person who is the most eye-catching.
It looked like he was only eight or nine years old. He was tall, but he was so thin that he could fall down when the wind blows.
He was wearing coarse linen clothes that didn't fit his body, a lot of his hands and feet were exposed, and he was purple from the cold at the foot of the snow-covered mountain, but he was shivering and shivering, still standing upright,
Because the distance was too far away, he couldn't really see his appearance, his messy hair was blown by the wind and blocked his face, only those bright eyes were hard to ignore,
Like an eagle or a wolf, firm and fierce,
Mu Qing caressed the white jade bracelet on her wrist, observing him steadily,
At the foot of the mountain, there is only one road leading to Yushangxian Mansion. It is extremely steep, covered with ice and snow, surrounded by rising white mist, making people unable to see the scene inside.
"How do you go on this road, what if you slide down the cliff with such thick ice and snow?"
"That's right, the fog is so thick that I can't see the surroundings at all."
However, teenage children, who have just left the protection of their parents, cannot face the sudden predicament at all.
The surroundings were in chaos, no one dared to step forward, only the child in rough linen clothes stepped up the stone steps less than a foot without saying a word.
He walked very steadily, his expression was calm and composed, without any fear or panic,
Seeing him stepping forward, he also followed boldly up the stone steps,
On the viewing platform, Yu Jing nodded her head and said appreciatively,
"This child has such a mind at such a young age, if he concentrates on practicing, he will become a great weapon in the future."
Mu Qing also nodded,
Isn't that right? If it weren't for the protagonist's halo being too strong, this would be the ultimate villain with a ceiling of strength.
She touched her chin and said to Yu Jing,
"Brother, I've taken a fancy to him, I want to accept him as my first disciple"
Hearing this, Yu Jing was a little surprised,
He knows the temper of his junior sister, she is used to being free and loose, and she doesn't want a young apprentice to bother her at all, so she became an elder for decades without accepting a single apprentice.
If he hadn't pulled him today, she wouldn't have come to attend this time's apprentice gathering.
It was the first time seeing her caring about accepting apprentices, Yu Jing smiled happily,
"Okay, since you are interested, if this kid can pass through the illusion, then senior brother will leave him to you."
If the other elders want to rob people, they don't even think about it.
Besides, in the maze of illusions,
After everyone stepped on the stone steps and walked for a while, the surrounding fog gradually dissipated. Only then did they realize that they were not on the stone steps, but walking in the forest.
The wind was rumbling all around, and thousands of layers of snow were rolled up, and the entire mountain forest was covered by a vast expanse of whiteness, impenetrable and lifeless.
The sound of the wind dissipated suddenly, and the quiet needle drop could be heard all around, and the deep and dead air became heavier.
The children were all sitting in a group, holding their breath and not daring to move, the solemn and terrifying atmosphere spread,
"Ah! Ah!!!!!!"
There was a scream, and everyone ran away in fright.
I saw a giant poisonous scorpion rushing up from the white snow,
Two huge pincers were pressing down on a child's shoulders. His pincers were covered with fine and dense black-brown fluff, and two blood-red eyes stared out.
The child was so frightened that he almost fainted, and the surroundings were in a mess, full of shouts and screams,
The poisonous scorpion raised its head abruptly, the pinholes glowing with dark green venom were about to pierce between the eyebrows of a child,
The child in coarse linen suddenly rushed out, and the sharp stone in his hand slashed towards the abdomen of the poisonous scorpion.
He quickly pushed the child under the poisonous scorpion away, but his arm was cut by the sharp fluff on the poisonous scorpion's pincers, and the flesh of his arm was instantly turned out, blood dripping all over the ground.
But he still didn't change his face, he didn't even frown,
Seeing that he was injured, Mu Qing's heart tightened, and the hands in the cuffs were clenched unconsciously.
"Roudun'er, look, our little villain still had a sense of justice when he was young, he was clearly a good young man with roots and roots."
Bai Dundun glanced at Mu Qing, his eyes were a little erratic, he didn't dare to speak,
Mu Qing didn't notice either, and continued to stare at the scene in the bronze mirror,
The poisonous scorpion was snatched to the abdomen, and it was so angry that it rubbed its hind paws on the ground. With a roar of 'boom', it violently attacked the child,
When the poisonous scorpion bit the child's bleeding arm, the sharp stone he held in the other hand pierced the poisonous scorpion's injured abdomen quickly and fiercely, and the dark green pus sprayed all over his face.
But the stone is not a sharp weapon after all, it is difficult to kill the poisonous scorpion with one move,
The poisonous scorpion was exhausted, at this time a boy in brocade clothes also joined the battle, he took out a dagger inlaid with gems from his waist, and plunged into the poisonous scorpion's abdomen,
Just when the boy in brocade clothes approached, the child's eyes dimmed for a moment, and he glanced at him from the corner of his eye, but at this moment his face was covered with filth, covering his gloomy expression,
He gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead popped out, but the movements of his hands became more and more violent, and he stretched out his hand straight into the belly of the poisonous scorpion.
"coax!"
The poisonous scorpion raised its head and roared, but dissipated into smoke in the next instant,
Seeing that he had broken the illusion, Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
The surrounding scene changed again, and the children were already standing in the open space under the viewing platform,
Fifth Elder Xu Huaizong stepped forward first, he stood still in front of the child and the brocade-clothed boy,
"You two hold your heads up"
Both of them raised their heads obediently, but the boy's face was full of dark green turbidity at this time, making the fifth elder frowned and took two steps back.
He turned his head to look at the other, his brows slightly loosened,
"what's your name?"
"Return to Elder, my name is Xiao Chengxu"
The fifth elder nodded, then turned back to the viewing platform,
Mu Qing rolled her eyes in her heart, this fifth elder is really a dignified old pervert, he looks like a dignified and upright venerable, but who knows that the inside is so dirty,
Thinking of what this person did to the little villain in the original book, her teeth itch,
Yu Jing took the seat first, and said seriously
"Okay, now that the two assessments are over, let's start the disciple acceptance meeting normally."
He looked at Mu Qing on the right side of his eyes, and said,
"Today is Elder Mu Qing's first time accepting apprentices, why not let her choose first, do you have any objections?"
According to common sense, the first person to choose disciples should be the head of the sect. Now that the head of the sect speaks in person, it is naturally difficult for others to comment.
Yu Jing looked at the crowd, nodded and said,
"Well, since you have no objections, Elder Mu Qing, you should choose first."
After receiving Yu Jing's gaze, Mu Qing stood up and walked to the child,
Although the child is considered tall among his peers, he is still an eight-year-old child after all, and he only reaches Mu Qing's chest.
"What's your name?"
"Beitang Yao"
His voice was hoarse, and he seemed to seldom speak.
Mu Qing tried to slow down her voice,
"Then how about I call you A Yao from now on? Are you willing to join my Qinghe Peak and be my Mu Qing's disciple?"
Beitang Yao still lowered his head, his messy hair blocked his face, making it difficult for people to see his expression at the moment.
After not seeing his reply for a long time, Mu Qing asked again patiently,
"Huh? You don't want to?"
Only then did Beitang Yao raise his head, with a strange expression on his face, his eyes seemed puzzled and surprised,
However, he finally nodded and called out in a hoarse voice,
"willing"
