Chapter 8 Ugly Water Demon
The courtyard of Xiao Mingyue's residence is extremely large, with a large empty space in front and a fish pond of two or three acres behind. The entire courtyard covers an area of six or seven acres. A tall attic stands alone in the center, like a lonely and reserved beauty, without any dust in the world.
Such a large courtyard is unique among the disciples of the outer sect of Zixin Pavilion. The reason why Xiao Mingyue was able to receive such high treatment was not because of his excellence, but because it was quite secluded here, close to the cliffs, others were afraid of loneliness, fearing that the cold wind was howling at night, disturbing his cultivation, and unwilling to live here. On the contrary, Xiao Mingyue liked it very much. After being promoted to the eighth level of the Qi Gathering Period, he was allowed to have a separate courtyard. Xiao Mingyue automatically moved here and had his small world.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Xiao Mingyue couldn't wait to clean the bottom floor of the attic. She first found a cushion, sat on it, meditated for a while, and after calming down, she took out the jade talisman given by Senior Brother Yun, carefully held it in her hand, and realized it with her heart.
After a long time, Xiao Mingyue's eyes, which had been closed for a long time, slowly opened, revealing a hint of surprise. Sure enough, the mind method of controlling fire was very different from the understanding and feelings he had read. The almost real description, the image composed of the unique space of the jade talisman, opened his entire senses of another world.
Intuitive, precise and reasonable step-by-step image demonstration allows Xiao Mingyue to have the most basic understanding of the fire control master's techniques, the fire control environment, and the characteristics of various grade-free medicinal materials.
In the past, he had already made it to the point of close observation, and then he would undoubtedly start his own attempt. However, Xiao Mingyue raised his hand in disappointment, glanced at him twice, and sighed. The first step to control the fire was to practice fingering. Sadly, he didn't even have a set of fingering skills now, so how could he play it? Slide the money-strapped pocket in his pocket, Xiao Mingyue sighed to the sky depressedly, looking at the ceiling, and became in distress.
After buying Xiao Hei Iron, there were only a few crystals left on him. A jade talisman that practiced the fingering mind technique was not as valuable as the Fire Burning Art given by Senior Brother Yun. The price was at least about thirty crystals. He might be able to take them out in the past, but now... he is really a pauper!
I touched the Fire Burning Technique with my fingers and slowly fell into deep thought. I waited, but it would definitely not work. Thirty crystals would have to be saved for another two months. I collected medicinal materials in the back mountain and had a half-month income. I promised Brother Yun that I must do what I promised Brother Yun. Most of the first-grade materials must be handed over to Brother Yun. Not only for the sake of my gratitude for my care, but also for the need to understand the skills of refining fire. Brother, he has six opportunities to try the sea of consciousness!
Therefore, no matter whether he can obtain enough crystals or not, the senior brother must be short of first-grade medicinal materials.
Is there any other way to quickly obtain thirty crystals? Xiao Mingyue, who was spread on the floor, raised her lips slightly, showing a hint of embarrassment. Finally, she couldn't stand the temptation of practicing the fire control skills early. She "live" the carp stood up, clenched her fists with one hand, and said fiercely: "It's a death, no matter how hard it is, I'll be a hero again twenty years later!"
This determination is like a tragic sensation on the execution ground!
The dawn broke through the dark cage, and the orange-red sun hung on the horizon early in the morning, revealing a small half of her face. She took a peek and quickly retreated back to the back of the morning glow, not daring to emerge. The girl stretched her waist lazily, and her slender waist outlined her perfect figure, charming and beautiful, with her slender white and tender legs mostly exposed, standing barefoot, standing by the clear water pool, with her curved lips smearing an attractive curve, her delicate facial features were lazy and shy, forming a beautiful face that was fascinating and worthy of life.
Anyone who sees this funny little man must be stunning. When his head meets the stunning sky, what will happen after the stunning? It's a different matter.
"Miss, all the outer disciples who signed up are here. It's so strange. The last time, the young man who interested you came again," an old woman with silver hair stood silently on the outside of the pool, smiling at the corner of her mouth.
"The young man I'm interested in," Xue Qiurong's eyebrows slightly clumped, and she swept her memory and showed a shocked attitude, "You mean, that boy named Xiao Mingyue!"
"Yes! Miss, you are blessed," the old woman laughed.
"What are you saying? I'm not interested in his body, but his perseverance is really different!" The beauty sighed, and her mind was no longer on Xiao Mingyue. Her slender body completely merged into the water. She cut the water like a mermaid and swam into the center of the pool. She ordered: "Today their training time is doubled, is the reward doubled, and it also doubled."
"Ah" sounded, the old woman was stunned, and she smiled with her lips in her mouth for a long time, and agreed, "Okay, Miss, that Xiao Mingyue, can I let him enter the second level of water?"
"It's up to you, but don't say anything about it in the future. I'm interested in him. Such a small man, um, I don't feel it." After saying that, Xue Qiurong's body suddenly ejected, jumped out of a distance of five or six meters, and fell into the water again. The water splashed and the silver light shone brightly, revealing a beautiful rainbow bridge, which looked particularly charming and charming under the morning glow.
Linglongtian.
After walking about half a mile along the path in the fog, my eyes suddenly became clear. The seven or eight acres of valley was just a little larger than Xiao Mingyue's courtyard. There were flowers competing for beauty. Strangely shaped rocks covered every corner of the valley. The colorful small stones were like laying a colorful carpet in the valley. People walked on it, butterflies flying, bees shuttled, and flew around in front of people in groups, which was very lively.
At the lowest end of the valley, there is a pool of clear pool water, with a bottomless green faint. People stand by the pool, with huge suction force pulling down. This environment could give people a feeling of lingering. Once they approached the deep pool, the five outer disciples turned pale and everyone was talking.
"Will we swim to the bottom of the water, will we not have enough breath and die below?" A low-level but very good water-like outer disciple said worriedly.
"The life of the outer disciple is not much better than that of the pheasant and hare. If you die, you will die. No one cares about it. Whether it is dangerous or not, please consider it yourself..." Xiao Mingyue stood beside him and joked. His heart was actually very anxious and he was about to jump out of his mouth. Seeing the low-level outer disciple, his face turned blue and his calves kept swaying.
The senior brother next to him spoke, "Mingyue, don't say that terrifyingly, when did Haotian Sect not treat our outer disciples as human beings? The following is danger. The most important thing is not suffocation, but bone-bone coldness. Once the body is frozen, it will automatically float to the water surface, and your life is basically worry-free."
"Once you play, you will lose half your life! When you go back, you will not be allowed to lie on the bed and rest for three days," said a strong external disciple of the physical cultivation.
"Three days are fine, last time..." Xiao Mingyue twitched her lips and said bitterly: "I lie down for eight days before I recovered, which means I was all dead once."
"Eight days, Brother Mingyue, you are at the eighth level of Qi Gathering Stage, why do you need to recover for so long?" asked the physical education disciple.
"I don't know, that time I seemed to have accidentally entered the second water level. It was a great luck to come out alive!" Recalling the experience a month ago, Xiao Mingyue couldn't help but feel a cold and cold. It was really ice! When he swam out of the pond, he had a beard and a series of ice slags on his chin. When it fell, the belt and flesh were so painful!
"You can still swim out by yourself in the second level of the water realm!" The outer disciple of the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Period stared at Xiao Mingyue for a while and sighed: "Junior Brother Xiao, you are really amazing! With such a strong swimming talent, you will definitely be able to achieve great success in the future!"
Does this have anything to do with swimming talent? Xiao Mingyue smiled bitterly. It wasn't for the sake of thirty crystals that he wouldn't take such an experience that life is worse than death.
"I don't understand why Jingshui Mingtan asked our outer disciples to go down to pick Mingxin grass once a week. Who took the Mingxin grass you picked each time?" someone asked curiously.
"Haha, I've heard of this," Xiao Mingyue pretended to be mysterious and said: "There are five deacons and elders in our Haotian Sect, among which one is called Sang Tanyue. Elder Sang. More than ten years ago, he caught a young water monster and raised it in Linglongtian. This Mingxin Grass must have been prepared for this monster."
"Monster Beast!" The big guy's mind was fooled, and he temporarily forgot about the danger, surrounded Xiao Mingyue, urging him to start telling stories.
In front of the stream pool, there was a gust of wind, strange and profound. Xiao Mingyue started to speak a storyteller unscrupulously, "This monster! She is strong and huge. When she stands up, she is five or six meters tall. However, she is not walking while standing, but crawling on the ground, and the water is like a dragon. When she eats a water monster, she loses her "jump". How strong are you? Her eyes, like lanterns, emit a faint blue light, and the eyes meet her...," Xiao Mingyue's mouth curled an evil arc and sneered: "I can't say that it's the delicious meal on her next meal."
Eat people!
Several outer disciples were shocked and could not say a word. It was not that they didn't believe that it was natural for monsters to eat people. Jingshui Mingtan was clearly in Linglongtian, the outer sect of Haotian Sect, and there were still monsters that could eat people? If so, they would have been destroyed by the elders of the Haotian Sect Elders' Courtyard.
This feeling is too unfunny! Including Xiao Mingyue's five outer disciples, three disciples, Sa Yazi ran out of the valley without looking back. The old woman standing on the other side of Jingshui Mingtan raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Mingyue coldly, as if she was still. Her eyes were filled with cold and evil spirits. The ninth-level outer disciple of the Qi Gathering Period looked at the old woman, and her body and mind collapsed instantly, and she turned around and ran away.
Xiao Mingyue wanted to leave, but her feet were firmly fixed and could not move. Her body was shaking like a sieve. Her chin was so soft that it was trembling. She cried in her heart, "Not good" and she couldn't say that the old woman was the monster he called, right? A monster that could transform into a human form, grandma, died miserably!
