Chapter 116 Cultivating Demons or Cultivating Immortals 5 Meow!
The assessment site under the gate of Shangqing Mountain is in a clearing in the forest, and a temporary formation is supported by a magic weapon, protecting two rows of houses soaked in the hazy night.
The gatekeeper disciple led Chu Yunsheng to the open space, and introduced him to the assessment: "Tomorrow is the day to open the mountain gate. Those who are destined to hold the Qianlong card will start to climb the road after noon. If they pass the road, they can go to the sky." Rest here for another day, and wait for the subsequent assessments... You applied for the Artifact Refining Hall, and the assessment should be very fast. Today's disciples are very delicate, and they don't like to do this kind of blacksmithing with fire and smoke Tired work is also playing with fire, so it is better to learn alchemy, clean and decent, and earn more..."
"You came early, there is no one in the temporary disciple's house here, so you can choose one to rest."
Chu Yunsheng randomly selected a secluded house, and the guard disciple took out a bunch of keys, dialed them, and handed one to him.
"Dengtian Road will open at noon tomorrow, don't be too late, otherwise you will have to wait another sixty years." With the thought of caring for the little juniors who might get started, he reminded him again, and the gatekeeper put away the key , turned around to leave.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng asked again: "Brother, is there a kitchen here?"
The guard disciple stopped in his footsteps and said in surprise, "You didn't prepare Bigu Pill?"
"Forget it, this is also very good. Our practice in Shangqingshan pays attention to conforming to our nature and nature, so we can eat Bigu pills if we can. But you came from Baiyue City, and you don't know how to bring some dry food... There is a bamboo forest in the back. In the kitchen, you can cook by yourself, or you can wait for the patrolling juniors to come over and ask them to buy some dry food..."
Of course Chu Yunsheng knew that the disciples below the Jindan in Shangqing Mountain had three meals a day, and there was even a special peak in Shangqing Mountain called Zhenxiu Pavilion, which was the canteen of the sect.
So it was expected that there would be a kitchen in the assessment office.
And the reason why he was looking for a kitchen was not because he wanted to cook, but because he wanted to boil some hot water and have a good bath.
All the way from Baiyue City to Shangqing Mountain, the sun was shining brightly. With his current cultivation base, he couldn't avoid the cold and heat, so he was naturally sweating profusely.
Even with the dust removal technique, Chu Yunsheng still felt that it was not refreshing enough subconsciously, and also wanted to take a hot bath to relieve fatigue and adjust his state for tomorrow's assessment.
After the gatekeeper disciple left, Chu Yunsheng put his few luggage in the selected house, and went to the bamboo forest to find the kitchen.
The location of the kitchen can be said to be quite conspicuous. Chu Yunsheng only walked around the bamboo forest for a while, and saw the house that was obviously different from the other houses around.
Between the kitchen and the bamboo forest is a small stream with clear water, which is covered with thin pebbles, and there are many swimming fish waving their tails.
Chu Yunsheng fetched a few buckets of water, put it on the stove, and while waiting for the water to boil, he also dug out a pair of fishing rods from the kitchen, and not long after, he caught a few big fish that turned blue.
The cool night wind passed by, and the bamboo forest rustled.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the curling smoke from the chimneys floats out of the towering chimneys, making this unearthly Taoyuan fairyland dyed with fireworks in the world for a while.
In fact, no matter which world he is in, no matter what kind of life he experiences, what Chu Yunsheng longs for most in his heart is still peace and tranquility.Just at the beginning of each crossing, for a variety of reasons, this expectation often does not come true.
But this time may be an exception.
Chu Yunsheng sat outside the shed in the kitchen, quietly enjoying the sound of gurgling water and the breeze in the forest for a while, then got up and brought the finished sweet and sour fish back to his residence, covered it with a gauze cover, and went to take a bath inside the screen first.
Slightly hot water spread over the chest and abdomen, soothing fatigue.
In the midst of steaming water, Chu Yunsheng leaned against the bathtub and closed his eyes half-closed, thinking a little drowsily about tomorrow's assessment and the future.
Just as a little drowsiness surged up uncontrollably, there was a soft crackling sound outside.
Chu Yunsheng suddenly opened his eyes and jumped out of the bathtub.
A magic spell instantly dried the body, and the snow-white robe was draped over his shoulders. Chu Yunsheng tied the belt with one hand, bypassed the screen in just a few breaths, and appeared outside.
The door of the room was still bolted, and it was pitch black outside half of the window, without any shadow or movement.
A candlestick in the room flickered, casting shadows everywhere.
Chu Yunsheng turned his gaze and landed on the ground beside the table, where a pair of chopsticks that should have been placed next to the bowl fell, which should be the object that made the noise.
Taking out two rough-painted lightning-inducing talismans from the newly bought storage bag and holding them in his hands, Chu Yunsheng glanced coldly at the furnishings in the room one by one.
He didn't think that there would be thieves sneaking in at the examination office of the mountain gate in Shangqing Mountain, and there would be patrolling disciples. As an unknown person at the first level of Qi refining, he would not attract any plots against him, so Chu Yunsheng even more so. It tends to stray into some birds and beasts in the nearby dense forest.
But Shangqing Mountain is a spiritual mountain, and the birds and beasts that live here are not extraordinary beasts, at least they have the ability to refine Qi or exercise their bodies, so they should not be underestimated.
Thinking in this way, Chu Yunsheng suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a vague shadow moving slowly inside the gauze cover of the sweet and sour fish on the table.
Holding the talisman, Chu Yunsheng lifted the cover with one hand, and quickly grabbed the shadow with his eyes and hands. He only heard a meow scream in his ears, and his hands had already pinched a piece of limp fur.
Chu Yunsheng brought it up to his eyes.
The candlelight reflected it, but it was an orange kitten with a round head.
The skin on the back of the orange kitten's neck was pinched, its limbs hung limply and feebly, as if it wanted to struggle but was powerless.Those golden-green pupils suddenly narrowed into a thin slit, and the fish that was in his mouth before fell to the ground with this frightened scream.
"It turned out to be a fish thief."
This little orange cat was inexplicably similar to the transformed Rong Qi he had dreamed about two days ago, which made it difficult for Chu Yunsheng to show a strong sense of vigilance, and the corners of his indifferent and slightly pursed lips curled into a playful arc.
I checked the little orange cat's body with my spiritual sense, but I couldn't see the cultivation level. It seemed that it was just an ordinary kitten.
Chu Yunsheng felt the weight in his hand, and said lightly, "According to orange standards, you are still too thin."
"Meow... Meow!"
The golden-green pupils met Chu Yunsheng's gaze, and the little orange cat let out an angry shrill cry as if it had encountered an enemy.
Chu Yunsheng ignored the little orange cat's incompetence and fury, put away the talisman, sat down at the table and took out a pair of chopsticks again, and while pressing the little orange cat in his hand to his lap, he picked a few pieces from the sweet and sour fish Very tender fish meat with a light taste, patiently picked the thorns, and at the same time said casually: "Shangqingshan has a delicate kitten like you who can live..."
Landing on Chu Yunsheng's lap, the little orange cat who was just about to struggle heard this, and suddenly its limbs froze, solidified like a long-haired stone.
He raised his head and glanced at Chu Yunsheng's chin with those golden green eyes, as if he felt something suddenly, his eyes moved, but he didn't try to struggle to escape.
The warm, still steamy palm caresses the back, passing through the soft fur.
The little orange cat subconsciously curled up its tail, feeling a somewhat familiar trembling flowing into its limbs like warm water, permeating with lightness, giving his dry body a sign of recovery.This gentle intoxication was so comfortable that he couldn't help spreading his paws to reveal his belly.
Fortunately, this comfortable feeling could not shake his sobriety, but instead reminded him of some pleasant and unpleasant things.
He squinted his golden-green pupils, lay on Chu Yunsheng's lap, glanced between the legs that were close at hand and the waist and abdomen exposed from the collar of the loose robe, and then looked down at the fact that he was not sharp. He gave up the idea of scratching his nails, and pressed his paws a little unhappily.
Chu Yunsheng was a little surprised at how peaceful the little orange cat was, but he didn't say anything, and just put a piece of selected fish to his mouth.
"Meow."
The little orange cat raised its body, glanced coldly at Chu Yunsheng, opened its mouth to bite the fish, and ate it bit by bit, with a somewhat dignified and elegant posture.
Chu Yunsheng rubbed the little orange cat's hair with his fingers, and then smoothed it down, causing the little orange cat to give him a supercilious look after taking a bite of the fish. Pushing away the mischievous fingers, he meowed angrily at him.
Then I heard an uncontrollable deep laughter from above my head.
"Don't be angry, eat slowly."
Chu Yunsheng pressed the little head and coaxed it.
The little orange cat obviously didn't appreciate this stiff consolation at all. When the fish and meat were almost eaten, and his body had absorbed almost the lightness from the opponent's body, he resolutely kicked away the hand that was rubbing towards his belly, Swish down Chu Yunsheng's legs, and jumped onto the window sill several times.
He turned his head and bared his teeth fiercely at Chu Yunsheng, raised his round head, and the orange figure, like a real shadow, jumped out of the window and melted into the night in the blink of an eye.
From the little orange cat jumping to the window sill, until finally disappearing, Chu Yunsheng did not stop him from the beginning to the end.
When a cool night wind suddenly came in from the window, blowing the coolness on his body, Chu Yunsheng came back to his senses, picked up the chopsticks thoughtfully, and ate the rest of the meal.
At the same time, on a section of the mountain path near the gate of Shangqing Mountain, two disciples in the Qi refining stage were patrolling with lamps.
After walking a few steps, one of the disciples suddenly turned his head and asked the other disciple, "Did you hear any movement? Like a cat meowing?"
Another disciple listened carefully and shook his head: "There is nothing. However, on both sides of the mountain road leading from the gate of our sect to the outer gate, the trees are dense, and there are many birds and animals that are randomly raised by the spirit beast garden. It's normal. If you're worried, let's take a test with the waist card."
"Be careful."
The disciple who suspected that there was a movement took out his patrol badge from his arms, and shot out a light curtain, reflecting the surrounding environment in every detail.
It's just that there was silence everywhere in the night, but nothing unusual was found.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong... let's go."
The two disciples put away their patrol badges, and the glazed lanterns dangled slowly away.
Not long after the light went away, a tall and tall figure appeared in the shadow of the trees beside the mountain road just now.
The subtle moonlight sprinkled down from the gaps in the treetops, faintly illuminating the large area of white skin like ice jade, and the two hairy ears that were disappearing rapidly.
Feeling the changes in his body, Rong Qi lifted his left hand slightly, and a set of white clothes wrapped in light green gauze fell on his body, instantly wrapping his slender body.
He walked out from the shadow of the trees, with a hazy and elegant brilliance floating around him, raised his eyes full of indifference and world-weariness that had been half-closed all year round, and glanced in the direction of the gate of Shangqing Mountain against the moonlight, revealing a touch of thought.
Rong Qi didn't expect that this little Moxiu would be so courageous and dare to come to Qingshan.
In the inexplicable double cultivation back then, there were both unavoidable feelings and more inexplicable throbbing, so he didn't stop Xiao Moxiu's seriously injured body from absorbing his original aura.It's just that Xiao Moxiu sucked so much, which directly caused the flaws in his skills afterwards, making him unable to maintain his body, and turned into a delicate kitten.
The technique he practiced is called "Three Swords of Good Fortune", and good fortune and good fortune mean the evolution of all things.
This technique is also a sword technique. There are three swords and three stages. After practice, there are strange changes that can transform everything in the world into swords, and there are also powerful killings that can break everything in the world with one sword.
The way of heaven and all things are not perfect. All powerful exercises in today's comprehension world have more or less disadvantages and defects, which are unavoidable.In practice, a monk must not only compete with the sky and others, but also suppress the madness and shortcomings brought about by the exercises, and compete with himself.
"Three Swords of Creation", as the top skill of the Thirteen Evil Sects, naturally has flaws.
Its defect is that once the original spiritual energy is damaged, or the mental state of practice is unstable, it will make the practitioners randomly become one of the things in the world, and be affected by the nature of this kind of thing more or less, until the loss The original aura of the soul can only be recovered by replenishing it through practice or re-stabilizing the state of mind.
So the meowing and stealing fish in front of Xiao Moxiu today were not done by him - that is the nature of all little wild cats!
Elder Rong firmly believed.
In fact, because Chu Yunsheng absorbed his original aura, Rong Qi sensed him the moment Chu Yunsheng stepped near Shangqing Mountain.
Out of the anger of having absorbed a lot of original aura, and some inexplicable thoughts, he sneaked out of the cave that had been closed for several months, and ran to the mountain gate.
Originally, he just wanted to sneak a sneak peek at Xiao Moxiu, but he didn't expect that the sweet and sour fish was quite delicious, and being close to Xiao Moxiu could absorb a little excess of the original spiritual energy that escaped, allowing him to return to normal in advance.
However, after a few months, the little demon cultivator whose meridians and dantian have been repaired is only at the first level of qi refining, which is really a bit unprogressive.
It seems that there is a lack of a famous teacher to teach.
Rong Qi looked in the direction of the mountain gate, and there was a hint of strangeness and playfulness in his cold and deep eyes.
His figure quickly became transparent under the moon, and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.The night wind blew through the fallen leaves without even noticing a breath.
Chu Yunsheng still doesn't understand the dire situation in his future life.
That night he lay down refreshed, had no dreams, and slept peacefully.
At noon the next day, while Chu Yunsheng was fishing by the stream, he heard a loud commotion coming from the mountain gate not far from the house, and someone suddenly shouted: "Look! The seven geniuses holding Qianlong cards are going to pass the mountain gate." , have reached the sky!"
Chu Yunsheng followed the prestige, and saw a sudden light in front of his eyes, and a blazing light in the distance.
After one breath, the rays of light subsided, and seven beams of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue, and purple burst out of the light, rushing straight into the sky, like a rainbow in the clear sky, covering the four sides of the mountain gate, which was even more dazzling than the scorching sun on the dome for a while.
These seven hidden dragon cards appeared together, as if triggering something, a spiritual energy suddenly surged at the gate of Shangqing Mountain.
A stream of heaven and earth spiritual energy gathered from all directions and poured into the seven rays of light in the rainbow, causing amazement and envy in the surroundings.
Chu Yunsheng put away his fishing rod and walked towards the mountain gate. As soon as he got close, someone in the crowd shouted in shock: "Young Master Little Red went directly to the fourth level of Qi Refining, it's so terrifying!"
"Young Master Xiaoqing is not bad, he is at the third level of Qi Refining! He has only just introduced Qi into his body!"
"Miss Little Orange and Mr. Little Green are almost there, they have only risen to one level, it's a pity..."
The seven teenagers who were still smiling at first gradually became stiff after hearing the voices around them. Among them, the girl Xiaocheng couldn't hold back, stomped her feet angrily, and argued: "My lady's surname is Murong. Not surnamed Cheng!"
The voices of people on all sides were like a tide, and they were not affected in the slightest.
The seven people had no choice but to run away and rushed up to the already opened Dengtian Road next to them, pretending that they didn't hear this mess of names at all.
Chu Yunsheng, who was very lucky not to have won the title of Young Master Xiaobai, stood quietly at the same spot, and waited until the surrounding registrations were finished, and after watching the excitement, the crowd gradually dispersed, then he took out the Qianlong card unobtrusively, and left. On the road to heaven.
