Chapter 1310: Configuration
The hall is still the hall, and the people are still those people.
It's just that the expression on everyone's face is different.
There are those who have won the token and smiled, and there are those who are envious and jealous because of the defeat. There are those who are in the limelight and proud, and there are those who lose face and are depressed and entangled.
The happiest one belongs to Li Qingdong, holding a wine glass and pretending to be almost a trap everywhere. Today is really a good day, the Maoshan faction can be said to have been in the limelight and won a great victory, which is worth celebrating.
In fact, strictly speaking, Taoism also prohibits alcohol. But most of the people here are ghost hunters, and they are not very constrained by the rules and precepts, so eating and drinking are not taboo.
The most depressed is Zhao Wuya, who was first smashed by Wu Zhanzhan's volley and squatted, then teased by Wan Shugao, and finally even more embarrassed, and was smashed by Ding Ermiao with a whip and dropped the sword in his hand. Therefore, Zhao Wuya's dinner was really tasteless.
After a few bites of rice, Zhao Wuya pushed the bowl away.
As the host, Bu Xiaoyao naturally did not want to neglect the guests, so he immediately arranged for the deacon staff to arrange guest rooms for Zhao Wuya and his protΓ©gΓ©.
Ding Ermiao and the others naturally didn't care, they ate and drank enough before leaving the table. Li Qingdong didn't leave, stayed in the dining room, and bragged with fellow Taoists from all over the world.
The guest rooms are arranged in the third courtyard, east and west, and a slip of the house.
Because it is a Taoist temple and a quiet place, it is natural for men to β and women to live separately. The men live in the east wing, and the women live in the west wing, separated by flower beds.
Ding Ermiao and Wan Shugao have a room, Ji Xiaoxiao and Gu Qinglan and Wu Zhanzhan have a room for three people.
Originally, Ding Ermiao wanted to wait for Li Qingdong to come back and chat with him. But until midnight, I heard him talking in front of me, so I had to give up.
So there was no word all night.
Early the next morning, Ding Ermiao and Wan Shugao got up to wash, but saw that the sky had cleared.
It was originally a blessed mountain, and after the heavy snowfall, the air was naturally fresh, but the north wind was leisurely and a little cold.
They all had breakfast in the dining room, and were about to inquire about today's game schedule, when Rosie arrived. With him, there was also the director of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, Yuqing Daogu.
"Everyone, today's game is in the Shangqing Palace, please move to the car." Rosie said.
"Guests are as they please, please lead the way." Zhao Wuya said coldly.
Li Zhihua, the master of the Shangqing Palace, shook off the dust: "Everyone, please follow the old way." β
Everyone flocked out of Zhengyi, followed behind Luo Xi and Li Zhihua, patrolled the mountains, and went to Taiqing Palace.
Those disciples who were not selected were left in Zhengyiguan and had no chance to go to Taiqing Palace.
But Luo Xi pointed to Gu Qinglan and Ji Xiaoxiao, as well as Wang Yuxin and several other female dependents, and allowed them to go together.
Although the mountain road is difficult, the people here have kung fu in their bodies, so it is not troublesome. Ji Xiaoxiao's health is a little worse, and with Ding Ermiao taking care of her, she will naturally not be embarrassed.
Six or seven miles in the mountain, a vast area, majestic Taoist temple, appeared in front of you, it is the Taiqing Palace of Longhu Mountain.
Speaking of Taiqing Palace, it is actually more famous.
The Taoist temple was first built in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and its history is not unpretentious.
It is said to be a Taoist temple, in fact, it is a building complex, there are six halls and two pavilions, three halls on the first floor, two halls and twelve nunnery and other buildings, it is the place where the gods are worshiped in the past dynasties of Longhu Mountain, and there is the title of the place where the fairies will be and the gods are employed.
The area here is also relatively prosperous, and not far from the foot of the mountain is a small town. It is only three or four miles away from the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
Tourists come to Longhu Mountain to incense, most of them come here.
Crossing the mountain gate and entering the main hall, according to the old rules, first worship the god of the heavenly master, and then enter the backyard.
In the backyard, everything has already been laid out.
I saw that the seven large stoves were lined up all the way, and the firewood under the stove had been lit, but on the stove was a huge iron pot, and the pot was full of sesame oil. The diameter of the iron pot is at least one meter two or more, which is a rare specification.
The stoves are separated by three meters, and in front of each stove, a passage to the south is drawn with lime. The passage is about 20 meters long, like a running track for running races.
Standing at the end of the runway, Wan Shugao shouted and said, "This is not to tell us to get off the oil pot!" β
Rosie smiled and said, "It's too late to regret it now." β
"I'm going, I'm really going to get into the oil pot!" Wan Shugao suddenly sweated, and regretted yesterday's bravery.
If you didn't pass yesterday, wouldn't you be free of the oil pot today? Now that it's on the scene, how can you regret it? Isn't that a lifelong joke? Moreover, even if others don't laugh at themselves, after going back, Wu Zhanzhan will clean up the portal and torture himself to death.
"Everyone, let me announce the rules for today's clearance." Rosie waved her hand, facing the crowd, and said:
"Today's competition is a team of two, with a knockout system, and each group may have a winner, or it is possible that all of them will be lost."
Everyone listened confused, what does it mean that it is possible to leave one or not to stay?
"The specific rules, here's it." Rosie smiled, held up a lead-gray token in her hand, and said:
"It's a tin token, wait, it's going to be thrown in a boiling oil pan.
I would like to point out that the melting point of tin is about 230 degrees, while the boiling point of an oil pan is 330 degrees. In other words, the token will melt quickly! We did the test at the specific time, and it was about two minutes.
And everyone's task is to get the token out of the oil pan before it melts! In pairs, the one who obtains the token is the winner and enters the next level. If neither of them can be fished out, then they will be eliminated at the same time. β
Wan Shugao and others changed color at the same time, and it was not an easy task to fish for things in the oil pot, but I don't know if there are any tools.
"Of course, I'll provide you with the tools and configurations." Rosie continued.
Wan Shugao smiled, rubbed his hands, and said, "It's easy to do it if you have tools." β
Rosie also smiled and said, "Everyone's configuration is the same, a total of three rune papers, three copper coins. Everyone can only use these three rune papers and three copper coins to practice, and their original magic weapons are not allowed to be used. Otherwise, it counts as a violation. β
"Ah, what kind of configuration is this? Why don't you give me a wire strainer! Wan Shugao was immediately deflated.
"You can consider quitting now, otherwise, everyone is equal, and there is no wire filter for you."
Rosie smiled, looked at the crowd again, and said, "In a team of two, you can fight, but it is strictly forbidden to deliberately hurt people, please pay attention to proportion." β
Everyone agreed and nodded their heads again and again. But they all thought in their hearts, there are no good words to scold, no good punches to fight, hurt people or not, can you control it?
"Excuse me, how do so many people be grouped? Is it to find a partner, or to draw lots? Ding Ermiao asked.
