Chapter 44: When the Storm Comes, add more to Hanyelian
The hut is not big, only about 20 square meters, the candlelight is dim, only a bed, a table, a chair, and a small iron door on the side wall can be seen.
Those people hadn't gone out before I went in, so they must have entered the so-called hole through this small iron door? I guessed.
"Hey, what are you looking at? Write your name and go in from there, and the next person will be waiting to come in. "An impatient voice rang in my ears, mixed with the sound of a ghost crying, it really looked like a horror movie scene.
The sound of the ghost crying naturally came from behind the iron door, and the impatient voice was the owner of the hut, an old man with unkempt hair, who was peeling peanuts one by one at the table, looking impatient.
I was surprised that he was right in front of my eyes, but I had the feeling that I couldn't remember what he looked like.
Although it is strange in my heart, this is not something I want to explore now, but I just sigh that there are really people who can live in this environment, under his urging, I simply picked up the pen and wrote down my new name - Chu Ming, but I felt a little uncomfortable from the heart.
After I had signed it, the old man was throwing a peanut into his mouth, squinting and chewing it with pleasure, and I didn't bother to care what he did, so I turned and walked towards the iron gate.
"It's a little interesting, I don't want to use my real name when I come here, if I really enter any sect, will I use a fake name for a lifetime?" The old man's voice came from behind me.
My back stiffened, and I stopped, how did he see it? But I didn't look back, I didn't speak, and I didn't say anything right at the moment.
"I said that someone signed his name, and there was a sense of weakness in the strokes, forget it, get in, it's none of my business." The old man's tone suddenly became a little bored and too lazy to explore, and let me in.
I wished I was like this, so I hurriedly walked over, opened the cold iron door, and walked in quickly, but I didn't realize that the old man was just a few simple words, which made me break out in a cold sweat inexplicably, this invisible pressure is really powerful, right? It's just that I didn't think about it that much at that time.
After entering the iron gate, there is a bluestone passage, which feels naturally cold, but after so much experience, this kind of coldness that could have invaded the soul has no effect on me, I am very easy to walk in the passage, but in less than a minute, I entered the cave.
At the moment of entering the cave, I have already seen at least five or more powerful ghosts that can be visible, if it is an ordinary person here, it is estimated that just like this, the yang fire brought by itself will be extinguished because of fright, and the person who can hold on without fainting is already very powerful.
The people who advanced the cave are distributed in all corners at the moment, but they are all close to the entrance of the cave, not too deep, some people are struggling to support, and some people are very relaxed.
Among the three or two people who are relaxed, there is Wei Yu among them.
The cave was dark, and I couldn't see his expression clearly, but when I saw him turn around, I knew that he didn't use any 'strength' to carry the ghosts in the cave, and even those ghosts were still avoiding him.
I thought about everything about this big guy for a while, and suddenly I felt that he was really a little mysterious, but I didn't need to have a deep friendship when I thought about it, so I didn't think about it.
After a flash of effort, some people poured in the cave, I didn't want to be too high-profile, and I didn't want that Wei Yu to find me, so I chose a corner to stand still.
Because of the existence of the silly tiger, my soul is extremely powerful, and those ghosts don't dare to approach me at all, but in order to keep a low profile, I looked at the time, desperately suppressed the silly tiger, and let its soul breath hide deeper, and finally a few ghosts floated over, two of which were still visible guys.
They quickly wrapped up with me, and one of the people closest to me gave me a sympathetic look.
I was also happy to do this, and quickly made a hard appearance as if I was facing a great enemy, and pretended to pick up a trick to avoid confusion, and said something in my mouth, even though these terrible ghosts could not confuse me at all, let alone get on my body.
In this way, I pretended to enter a state of 'stalemate' with the ghosts, occasionally let go of the defense, let them intrude, and occasionally forced them out, such ten minutes were unusually good, I pinched and calculated, and dragged on for another two minutes before I went out.
Exactly ten minutes, and too long a time, are too conspicuous, and a result of twelve minutes is a bit bad, but it is definitely not conspicuous.
After all, a ghost is a ghost, and the occasional intrusion also makes me feel cold all over my body, and when I go out, one of my faces is inevitably pale, and my lips are estimated to have become iron-blue.
With an iron brand, with a unique pattern on it, it is somewhat similar to the runes on the runes sent to us by the Snow Mountain, it is estimated that it is not easy to imitate, I pretended to cherish and happily put it into my breast pocket, and I was about to leave.
At this moment, the old man said 'huh' and said to me, "You are so incompetent? ”
I pretended to be angry and glanced at the old man, who waved his hand impatiently and said, "Count me wrong, get out, get out." ”
I have to say that this old man is very rude compared to the white-robed man, but it is easier to face such a person, after all, his emotions will be very directly expressed, I am a little worried about the white-robed man, I always feel that he knows something, will that interfere with my plan?
When they went out, there were already a number of people waiting on the platform, and it could be seen from their expressions that most of them had been eliminated, and only a few had qualified.
I stood there waiting, my body temperature slowly recovering as the white-robed man came to me once again pretending to be inadvertent.
"Got the voucher?" He asked with a smile.
"Luck, luck." I replied thoughtfully.
"Sometimes, if you are too careful, you can see that it is a cover-up." He smiled at me and said that I looked at him a little puzzled, but he said, "Forget it, remember the rules, I don't care too much about the rest." It's just a curiosity that everyone has. ”
With that, he departed, looking at his back, and I thought to myself, if it was really just curiosity, then it would be fine.
In the end, we waited on the platform for more than an hour before we were able to go up, because all the scattered people who passed through had to act together, and the reason why it took so much time was that Wei Yu's guy had been dragging in the cave for so long.
After he came out, he shouted proudly, I'm the last one to get out of the hole, I'm the last!
I looked at him a little speechlessly, is such a person completely scheming? Or is it too scheming? But in any case, for me, I would never do such a thing as being too showy unless it was necessary.
We were taken up by the white-robed people, because we passed, so we didn't go back to the previous seats, but were brought to a row of seats in front of the arena, here is where all the scattered people who are going to challenge the ring are located, and those people from the sect sit next to each other, obviously feeling that those guys look down on the scattered people.
Wei Yu sat next to me and muttered, probably unconvinced, and I didn't think about it so much, just quietly waiting for my chance to play, it would probably take a long time.
In the boredom, I began to watch the challenges of those sect disciples, because I have experienced too much, so such challenges are mostly lackluster for me, after all, those who should fight, generally according to the unspoken rules, use a maximum of six points of ability, what will be the point of such a challenge?
Only five of them attracted me a little bit, and the five people who challenged forced the people to fight with all their strength, which was relatively much more exciting, and there was no doubt that those five people were picked by the ten major forces.
And I was looking forward to that Zhang Han and Zheng Mingyi making a move, but they never did, and they didn't even show their faces, which made me a little disappointed.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon it was evening, and the challenge of the sect's disciples finally came to an end, and a total of seventeen people were chosen.
At this time, the conference came to an end, announcing an hour break for everyone to eat or something, and we, as challengers of the scattered people, would receive a free and hearty meal.
And I was also amused to find that at the moment when the break was announced, Wei Yu, who was sitting next to me, actually fell asleep, and a little saliva hung on the corners of his mouth, is it so boring?
An hour passed quickly, and people returned to the venue, and the white-robed man who was in charge of leading us came to inform us that we were ready to play.
I clenched my fist gently, according to my plan, I would be the first to play, the reason was just because I didn't want to delay any longer, but I didn't want to At this time, Wei Yu jumped up, and shouted with a light in his eyes: "Have you started?" I'm going to be the first to go up! I'm going to get today's 'champion'! ”
