Chapter 4: Not Me

(New books rush to the list, all kinds of requests!)

The night is shrouded, the north wind is whistling, and the lights up and down the South Sword Mansion are bright.

In the inner mansion, in a sword house for the disciples of the inner door, Luo Gang sat cross-legged on the bed, closing his eyes and recuperating. There were also three male disciples standing in the room, dressed in blue inner disciple costumes, all observing Luo Gang's complexion with a concerned face.

There are more than 200 disciples of the new generation of Zhongnan Sword Mansion, but only a few dozen of them are among the inner disciples. Now in the room, they are all friends who are usually good friends with Luo Gang.

Today, Luo Gang failed to solve the sword problem, and suffered a backlash and was injured, and the situation is not optimistic.

After about half a cup of tea, Luo Gang finally opened his eyes and got up to get out of bed.

"Senior brother, how do you feel?"

"Senior Brother Luo, are you alright? ”

Words of concern came out of his mouth.

Luo Gang smiled slightly, and said: "I'm fine, hehe, although I failed to solve the sword problem today, it is not without gain, I have figured out the key tricks, I believe that if I try it again tomorrow, I will definitely be able to solve this Xuan-level lower-grade sword question." ”

Hearing his confident words, the other three showed happy expressions and praised one after another:

"Brother Luo, that's good. ”

"Haha, tomorrow Brother Luo will solve the sword problem in one fell swoop and lead the way, I believe that Gu Chengyang's face must be ugly. ”

"Of course. ”

"Tsk, in this way, wouldn't Senior Brother have a big step ahead in the assessment of competing for true disciples, congratulations!"

-- The Zhongnan Sword Mansion has been established for thousands of years, and the rules are clear, and the disciples are divided into three classes: outer disciples, inner disciples, and true disciples.

True disciples, very important, are prepared and cultivated as candidates for the next generation of power groups, regardless of cultivation, as well as loyalty to the heart, they must be repeatedly examined and reviewed, and those who pass can be elected.

There is also a rule that the current Sword Mansion Master can accept two True Disciples, and the four elders can each accept one True Disciple. In this way, there are a total of six true disciples, and if there are unexpected factors such as deposition and death, the replacement will occur.

But now, there are only two true disciples of the Zhongnan Sword Mansion, less than half.

As the saying goes, it is better to have a shortage than to be excessive, and the true disciples are too involved, and no one will accept them casually. And the relevant assessments are everywhere, mainly for the inner disciple group.

Luo Gang belongs to the leader of the new generation of disciples, and as long as there is a prominent table in the Sword Lecture Hall, there is no doubt that he will get more impression points.

In this way, he can stand out from the rest of his competitors.

Tomorrow is really worth looking forward to!

……

Bang Bang Bang!

The melodious and melodious sword practice bell rings, and a new day is coming.

After practicing the sword and having breakfast, a group of disciples rushed to the sword hall.

"Brother Luo, look, Gu Chengyang is over there. ”

The partner next to him whispered.

Luo Gang looked up and saw that Gu Chengyang, a competitor who had always been not very opposed to him, had also entered the Sword Lecture Hall surrounded by several inner disciples.

At the same time, Gu Chengyang looked at him with some awareness, and when his eyes met, there seemed to be a spark exploding.

Luo Gang couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and said secretly: "Looking at him, he should also go up to solve the sword problem today, no, he can't be preempted by him." ”

Yesterday I solved the sword problem, although I was injured by the backlash, but I was a blessing in disguise, and I found some key tricks and multiplied my grasp. Although Gu Chengyang may not succeed in cracking it, what if? If it is cracked by the other party, it will be too late to regret it.

Gu Chengyang's figure is half a head taller than Luo Gang, like a jade tree in the wind, he looked away after glancing at Luo Gang, and there were also waves in his heart: Yesterday, he actually wanted to come forward to solve the sword problem, but when he hesitated slightly, he was preempted by Luo Gang, and he was still a little annoyed at the time.

Fortunately, Luo Gang couldn't crack it, but vomited blood and was injured.

Seeing this, Gu Chengyang gloated a little again. So I didn't move, I had to recharge my energy for one more night, and then I would shoot today.

Hundreds of disciples sat on their own futons, they were not idle rabble, they sat upright, quiet and solemn, waiting for Elder Xiao Jihai to come.

It didn't take long for Xiao Jihai's short and fat figure to appear, with his hands behind his back, and he stepped onto the podium. First of all, his eyes habitually glanced at the disciples, coughed dryly, opened his mouth to say some clichΓ©s, and then said, "Who still wants to come up and solve the sword problem now?"

He wasn't prepared to get the hang of it all at once, he was still hopeful.

"I'm coming!"

In unison, surprisingly unanimous, it turned out to be Luo Gang and Gu Chengyang who raised their hands at the same time to speak.

Many eyes suddenly glanced at each other.

As two outstanding rookies of the new generation of disciples, Luo Gang and Gu Chengyang are destined to be difficult to become friends. The number of times they have been compared with each other is too much, and the more they are compared, the stronger the smell of gunpowder becomes.

From the standpoint of the Sword Mansion, the higher-ups like this kind of competition -- without competition, how can we make progress? As long as they do not go overboard, they will not interfere but encourage them.

Now, Luo Gang and Gu Chengyang are going to solve the sword problem at the same time, which is exactly the scene that Elder Xiao is happy to see, and he smiled: "Luo Gang, you have already tried it once yesterday, now let Gu Chengyang come first, okay?"

When Luo Gang heard this, he immediately became anxious, and clenched his fists and said: "Elder Xiao, it is precisely because the disciple tried it once yesterday, and after going back to reflect on it, he felt that he had a deep experience, so he had to crack it again, and asked the elder to complete it." ”

When Xiao Jihai heard this, he was in high spirits and said, "So, are you sure?"

Luo Gang held his head high and said loudly: "Ten percent dare not say it, Cheng should have." ”

Xiao Jihai was overjoyed: "Okay, you come up!" As long as Luo Gang cracks the sword problem, the troubles that have been bothered for a long time will be swept away.

The corners of Gu Chengyang's mouth moved, and he didn't make a sound, and his face became a little ugly: Listening to Luo Gang's tone, he has a good grasp of it, if he really cracks it, won't the other party take the lead?

Luo Gang glanced at his competitor provocatively, then strode up and stood in front of the stone wall, facing the sword question. He didn't have to look back to feel that all eyes were on him - he loved and enjoyed the high-profile treatment.

Then, taking a long breath, he began to drive his mind and solve the sword problem.

Airplanes!

But when his mind just touched the turtleshell-like sword theme carrier, the change was immediate, and the carrier fell apart in an instant, turned into powder, and fell down like quicksand.

This scene was seen by Xiao Jihai, who was standing on the side, his eyes froze, and he shouted: "Luo Gang, you successfully cracked it?"

It's just that there is still a trace of doubt in my heart, after all, the cracking process is too fast, which is a bit unreasonable. But if the sword problem is not solved, it will definitely not be shattered into slag.

Luo Gang also looked sluggish, and after a while, he turned around blankly and replied with a smile: "Elder Xiao, it's not me ......"
