Chapter 1063 Return without success?
After hearing Ji Lai's introduction, Mu Hanxue did not answer immediately, but lowered her head and took a sip of tea.
The woman looked noncommittal, and it was inconvenient to say more. She could only sit at the table and sip tea quietly like she did.
After a while, Mu Hanxue suddenly sighed softly, put down the tea cup in her hand, and said: "Mr. Ji, Mr. Liang, as far as I know, both of them arrived at Wushuang City not long ago. Right?"
Ji Lai didn't understand why she asked such a question, but he still nodded and said: "Yes, I have been in Wushuang City for less than ten days."
Mu Hanxue smiled softly and said: "It has only been ten days since the two fellow Taoists came to Wushuang City, but the little girl arrived a hundred days ago. The so-called preparation for a rainy day, I have been in Wushuang City for so long, and I have secretly After observing many candidates who came to register, I found that this time the selection and assessment can be described as Hidden dragons and crouching tigers, there are more than 70 monks in the late stage of Jindan alone! Not to mention those masters who have reached the peak of Jindan and have unfathomable magical powers."
As soon as she said this, Ji Lai couldn't help but frown slightly, as if he realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next moment, Mu Hanxue said calmly: "Young lady, you might as well tell the truth. The monks who participated in the selection test this time are all extraordinary in strength, and now there are many people joining forces. For example, the 'Tiansha Grandma' He Ling formed a team with Xiao He, the eldest disciple of the Wuwei Dao Sect, and Shen Luohua, who returned to the same sect."
"These people have advanced Jindan cultivation. Because, the supernatural power and strength are also unfathomable Test. Although Mr. Ji and Mr. Liang are very talented, their training time is too short after all, so there is little hope of passing this selection test."
She said this rather tactfully, she only said Liang Yan and Ji Lai's cultivation time is short, which actually means that their cultivation level is not enough. The heroes participating in the competition this time must have at least the cultivation level of the late Golden Core to be qualified to compete for the few cities. Disciple quota.
Although he didn't say it clearly, once he said this, it was equivalent to rejecting Ji Lai's invitation.
Ji Lai had a slightly embarrassed look on his face. Not long ago, he had boasted in front of Liang Yan, saying that Mu Hanxue would definitely agree to form a team, but he didn't expect that the other party would refuse. So straightforward.
"Xianzi Mu, this friend of mine is not an ordinary middle-stage Golden Core cultivator. With his magical power, he can definitely rival a monk in the late Golden Core stage. If you don't believe it, you can fight him with two moves." Ji Lai explained hurriedly.
After hearing this, Mu Hanxue smiled slightly. She had no intention of testing him at all. She just shook her head and said:
"Young master Ji, there is no need to say more. This time the selection assessment is hidden dragons and crouching tigers. , before entering Wushuang City, everyone thought that they had extraordinary powers and could challenge their opponents. But it was only when they met those perverts that they realized how advanced they were and how shallow they had been before.”
< br>
When she said this, there was a hint of apology on her face, and she continued: "You two gentlemen, don't take it to heart. The little lady did not mean to belittle this fellow Daoist Liang, it is just the fact. The little lady should wake you up as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you invest too much in this assessment, you will be more disappointed."
When Ji Lai heard this, his face turned dark and he turned to look at Liang Yan, fearing that the other party would flip the table in anger. .
However, to his surprise, Liang Yan's face was calm at this moment, and he did not look angry at all. Instead, he sipped tea leisurely, nodded and said: "Xianzi Mu speaks frankly and speaks from the bottom of her heart. , it seems that he is also a person of temperament. For this selection and assessment, Liang just tried his best and was not very sure. It should not be done. It’s time to disturb Fairy Mu.”
“This”
When Ji Lai heard what Liang Yan said, he couldn’t help but sigh softly and thought to himself: “This is Mu Hanxue. He didn’t even try our magical powers. It seems he doesn’t like us at all. Alas, he really got it right, and it turned out to be in vain this time.”
Just when Ji Lai sighed in his heart, Mu Hanxue suddenly smiled again, and then said:
"Young master Ji, don't be discouraged. If you really want to form a team with the little girl, there is not no chance." . ”
Her smile was like a spring breeze turning into snow. I had just been at the point of despair, but now I saw this touching smile and realized that things were turning around, and I immediately cheered up again.
"Please tell the fairy clearly!" Ji Lai cupped his hands and said.
"Actually, the little girl already has a candidate for the team. This person's magical power is extraordinary and can compete with those talented monks. Now she only lacks a teammate like Brother Ji. You You are the descendant of Shen Sanchi, who is 'fake but not crazy'. You will definitely have a place to play in this assessment," Mu Hanxue said slowly.
As soon as she said this, Ji Lai's expression changed quickly, but Liang Yan still lowered his head to sip the tea, seemingly not surprised by the incident.
"Xianzi Mu, you mean to separate Brother Liang and me and then form a team with you?" Ji Lai asked with a strange expression.
“Not bad!”
Mu Hanxue nodded and said, “I will speak frankly. In fact, with the cultivation level of the two of you, it is almost impossible to form a team and pass this assessment. It's impossible, especially although Brother Liang is very talented, after all, he has only just advanced to the middle stage of Jindan. In terms of fighting skills, he will definitely not be able to compare with those monsters in the late stage of Jindan. It is recommended that he practice for a few more years and wait until he reaches the late stage of Golden Core before he can take part in the selection test in Wushuang City."
"As for Brother Ji, although you are also in the middle stage of Golden Core, I have heard about Shen San for a long time. Now that I have strong support from Chi Yipui, if coupled with your secret skills, we have a high chance of passing this test!”
She spoke slowly and slowly, looking at Ji Lai's reaction as she spoke, as if she wanted to know what the other party was thinking.
However, Ji Lai became quiet at this time.
If he was a little cautious just now, for fear of offending the beauty, now he is extremely calm, as if what he said before has nothing to do with him.
When Mu Hanxue finished speaking, the entire pavilion was silent for a moment.
After a long time, he saw the trick and raised his head, smiled softly and said:
"Xianzi Mu was joking. My little skills as a master are totally unacceptable. I thought about it carefully just now and found that what Fairy Mu said was true. With our two middle-stage golden elixir realms, we really shouldn't reach such high levels. Mu Xianzi’s, This time I am too rude, so I'd better say goodbye and not disturb Fairy Qingxiu."
As soon as he finished speaking, he and Liang Yan stood up from the stone table at the same time, and slightly cupped their hands towards Mu Hanxue. , and wanted to say goodbye and leave.
“Wait!”
Mu Hanxue’s expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously stood up from the stone table and called to the two people who had left the pavilion.
"Master Ji, have you really thought about it? If you miss this opportunity, it will be gone. If you team up with this monk who is in the middle stage of the Golden Core, there is no hope of passing this assessment."< br>
"Thank you, Fairy Mu, for reminding me!" Ji Lai laughed and said, "Brother Liang and I are old acquaintances, and there is no way we will abandon him. Besides, Brother Liang is not as unbearable as you said, but you are the one to see him away this time. Blinded!"
After he dropped these words, He walked out of the bamboo forest without looking back. As for Liang Yan, he just smiled slightly and without saying a word from beginning to end, turned around and followed Ji Lai out.
After the two left, The entire bamboo forest became quiet again.
Mu Hanxue looked at the direction they were leaving, the expression on her face changing. After a long while, she sighed softly and sat down again.
A guqin was placed in front of her, but Mu Hanxue had no intention of playing it. I don't know how long it took, but in the quiet bamboo forest, a chuckle suddenly came, and then someone said in the dark: "I heard that the person who came to this plan is quite romantic, but I didn't expect that he could resist Fairy Mu's attack." Temptation, it seems that this person is not simple.”
Facing this sudden sound, Mu Hanxue was not surprised at all, but instead showed a hint of coquettishness.
"It's not you who insists on pulling this trick off me. You're just a monk who has just entered the middle stage of the Golden Core. I don't know what you fancy about him?"
"Hey, you don't know that his master Shen Sanchi is not a simple person. This person is useful to me. If not, I would be reluctant to let you come forward to win over him." The voice in the bamboo forest smiled softly, and then a man came out Black-robed monk.
This man was tall and thin, with a sallow complexion, and was wearing a set of black robes. He strode into the pavilion without any scruples, and directly hugged Mu Hanxue into his arms.
Unexpectedly, Mu Hanxue, who was originally as cold as an iceberg, did not struggle at all at this time. Instead, she leaned gently into his arms like a bird clinging to a human.
"Friend, do you know how much I have sacrificed for you? It was you who asked me to befriend Mr. Lin on purpose, and then I helped you get that thing. Now you ask me to go there again To win over this Mr. Ji, do you still have me in your heart?"
When she said this, her whole face was buried in the other person's arms, and she seemed to be very attached to this person.
"Silly girl, you are my heart and soul! Didn't we agree before? When I finish my work, we will practice dual studies together. If you help me a few more times, we will be together You can fly far away!”
The purple-robed man’s voice was extremely gentle. He patted Mu Hanxue’s heart as he spoke, as if coaxing a child.
"You said, don't regret it when the time comes!" Mu Hanxue blinked, her face filled with happiness, and she seemed to be extremely satisfied.
If there were other monks present at this time, they would be shocked and speechless.
You must know that Mu Hanxue is a stunning beauty who was ranked in "Hundred Spring Spectrum", and she has always been known for her coldness, but now she is like a kitten fluttering in a man's arms, with her little woman's face exposed His demeanor was simply incredible.
But Liang Yan and Ji Lai can no longer see this scene.
At this moment, under the leadership of the female nun in blue, they had walked out of the "Neighboring Mountain Residence" and returned to the mountain road.
"Brother Ji, I can't tell. With your character, you would actually refuse Mu Hanxue's invitation to form a team!" Liang Yan had been silent in the pavilion for a long time, but now he spoke with a smile.
"Hmph!"
Ji Lai rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Brother Liang, in your eyes, Ji is not a person who has no moral integrity, right?"< br>
"Huh? Isn't it?" Liang Yan asked curiously.
Ji Lai knew that he was teasing her and didn't bother to argue. He just said with a puzzled look on his face: "This Mu Hanxue is a little strange. She seems to have known that I would come."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"The spices in the pavilion, the music scores used to play, and the spiritual tea brewed for us all used Ji's favorite type. Just now, I I didn't notice it when I was inside, I just felt that everything around me was very comfortable, and I almost fell asleep in a daze. This woman said. Now that I think about it, this matter is by no means simple!” "You have a soft spot. If you leave, won't you let down other people's kindness?" Liang Yan said with a smile.
Ji Lai shook his head and sighed softly: "Brother Liang, please stop making fun of me. I'm afraid it's not a good intention, but another agenda, right?"
Hearing this, Liang Yan Ye stopped joking and looked beyond the many walls of the "neighboring mountain residence", seeming to look into the deepest part of the bamboo forest. After a long while, he nodded and said seriously:
"Indeed, this Mu Hanxue is not simple, and the ally she found is not an easy person either."
Ji Lai saw him squinting at the "neighboring mountain dweller" and thought he was unwilling to do so. , can only comfort: "Brother Liang, don't be disappointed, this woman doesn't know your magical powers, we can continue Find someone else to form a team. "The Golden Lantern Arhat" who is ranked fourth among the five major casual cultivators is pretty good. Although this person has a weird personality, he is not completely hopeless."
He said while raising his head. Making a hand seal, he was about to control the escape light and leave this place, but was grabbed by Liang Yan behind him.
"What's wrong?"
Ji Lai turned his head in confusion.
"Don't leave now, maybe there is a good show to watch."
A mysterious smile appeared on Liang Yan's face, and then he pinched the magic formula in his hand, and a gray light swept the two of them, only one In an instant, they disappeared on the mountain road at the same time.
After the two people disappeared, there was no movement on the empty mountain road. Time passed little by little, and it was already late at night in the blink of an eye.
At this time, the moon was setting in the atrium, and the bright moonlight was shining like flowing water, falling in the courtyard of "Next Mountain Residence", adding a sense of mystery to the originally quiet environment.
On a cliff not far from "Next Mountain Residence", two people were sitting cross-legged.
One of them was wearing a white robe, dressed as a scholar, shaking a folding fan gently in his hand, and suddenly asked: "Brother Liang, what do you mean by good show? Why is there still no movement at all?"
< br>The man next to him, wearing a gray gown, was sitting cross-legged like him. At this time, he smiled slightly and said:
"Brother Ji, don't be impatient. If you want to watch a good show, what can you do if you don't have the patience."
Before the man finished speaking, there was a sudden explosion from the "Lingshan Residence" below. , the sound of dragons roaring and tigers roaring could still be vaguely heard, and then a white rainbow soared into the sky, flying straight out of the mountain without stopping at all.
“The show has begun!” The man in gray chuckled softly.
Thank you: Xia Kaikai for the 4,500-point reward, and thanks: Ye Shenpinyu for the 10,500-point reward!
