Chapter 331 I Really Saw Me Down the Mountain
The team heading to Beishan was very large. Jian Yue was very sleepy when he woke up early in the morning. Everyone had to pack up and go up the mountain together. Just as Jian Yue was about to leave, someone came up from behind and asked in confusion, "You look unfamiliar. Are you also a disciple this time?"
Jian Yue said: "Yes."
"But why do I feel like I've never seen you before?" Someone asked curiously, looking Jian Yue up and down.
Jian Yue was a little nervous, and he said, "I didn't talk much before, maybe you didn't pay attention to me."
But the young disciple said, "Impossible, I have a photographic memory. I can remember all the thousands of people here who have passed the disciple assessment. I really have never seen you!"
The others looked over following his words.
When Jian Yue was thinking, someone suddenly came over from a distance. It was a young and tall boy with black hair. He walked to Jian Yue and called out, "Junior Brother."
?
Jian Yue turned around in confusion and saw Jiang Yu's face. He was a little surprised as to why this kid was here and why he came to see him.
Jiang Yu looked at Jian Yue and said, "I participated in the first round of the first selection, but Master wanted me to gain more experience and learn more, so he asked me to participate in the second round as well."
Jian Yue: “…”
No, has he ever said such a thing?!
Jiang Yu then said to the others, "I went up the mountain with this fellow apprentice when I was at the foot of the mountain. I have seen him."
He usually speaks very little among the disciples, but he is very authoritative. Although his strength is not high and Jiang Yu's spiritual roots are very poor, other disciples know his temper. He disdains lying the most and he has no friendship with others, so he has no reason to lie.
really.
The disciple who asked the question scratched his head, showing a puzzled expression, then chuckled and said, "Maybe I really remembered it wrong, sorry."
Jian Yue said: "It's okay, it's okay."
After finally fooling this group of people, Jian Yue looked at Jiang Yu, and he also looked at Jian Yue.
Jian Yue was a little nervous. To be honest, even his own eldest disciple didn't recognize him after he had changed his appearance. Xiaoyu's cultivation was even lower than that of the eldest disciple. How could he recognize her?
"This isn't right..." Jian Yue murmured in his heart.
But soon, the car came and there was no time to think. The cloud car is a means of transportation in the fairy world. Ordinary disciples cannot usually ride in the cloud car. A large cloud car can carry about two thousand disciples. There are three or four such cloud cars in total.
Jian Yue and Jiang Yu's teams were both in the back. While they were queuing, there was still a bit of a crowd in front of them getting on the boat. Jian Yue was thinking about something and was squeezed and almost fell to the ground. Someone behind him immediately supported him. Jian Yue looked back with some surprise and met the gaze of the person behind him.
Jiang Yu whispered, "Are you okay?"
Jian Yue quickly shook his head and said, "It's okay."
He was also a little confused in his heart. Finally, when he was sure that no one was paying attention to this place, Jian Yue asked: "You, um, have you really seen me at the foot of the mountain?"
Jiang Yu said: "I am sure I saw you on the way up the mountain."
Jian Yue was a little surprised and asked, "Really?"
Jiang Yu said expressionlessly: "I never lie."
Jian Yue: “…”
But he didn't even attend the first round of the disciple conference! !
He was somewhat suspicious, but he did not dare to tell Jiang Yu that he had never seen him in the mountains. He could only attribute this to the fact that maybe this kid was simply willing to help others!
Everyone got on the bus.
The cloud car was very large, in the shape of a cloud, but it was very deep and spacious inside, and countless disciples shuttled through it.
Jian Yue and the others were also seated in a corner. They certainly had no seats and could only stand. However, cultivators generally did not care about this, as they called this cultivation.
A few people walked past the highest marble in the main driving area not far away, and the disciples around Jian Yue whispered:
"Did you see those people up there?"
"It's Master Chang Feng."
"It turned out to be him. Master Chang Feng has been fighting demons and defending the Way for many years. He hates evil and is truly our role model!"
"He actually came in person this time. We will definitely be able to wipe out those evil spirits!"
The excited voices of the crowd could be heard one after another.
Jian Yue's gaze became deeper, because Chang Feng was the elder who was responsible for dealing with the bodies of the first round of disciples. When they were on the snowy mountain, his conversation with Jiang Cheng was obviously ill-intentioned. Jian Yue couldn't be sure who the murderer was behind it, but he was at least certain that there was definitely something wrong with Chang Feng.
Why did he come in person?
Is this related to the deaths of most of the disciples in the second round of disciple selection?
He looked at Chang Feng who was not far away. Perhaps he felt something in his heart, or for some other reason, Chang Feng, who was originally standing far away, actually turned around and looked at Jian Yue. From a distance, the two people looked into each other's eyes.
Jian Yue just felt a little frightened. This person seemed to have seen through his problem.
Just when there was a stalemate.
Someone blocked the two people's view from each other. It was Jiang Yu. His young body stood in front of Jian Yue. His handsome face lowered his head and looked at Jian Yue. He said, "We're almost there."
Jian Yue suddenly came back to his senses: "What?"
Before I knew it, the cloud boat had already cut through the sea of clouds and was far away from the territory of Lingyun Sect. What I saw was golden sunlight shining on the earth, and below were countless wheat fields and villages. Outside this thriving area, the North Mountain not far away was dark.
Jian Yue said: "Is that our destination?"
Jiang Yu nodded: "Yes, Beishan."
Jian Yue was curious: "Why is Beishan so dark?"
A disciple nearby said, "Don't you know this? We have already done our homework. Beishan is the junction with the Demon Realm. Back then, the God of Creation Jiang sealed the heaven and earth layers. The Demon Lord is always in the Dark Realm, and only humans can be in the human world. North of Beishan is all dark rivers and magma."
Jian Yue asked: "Can the demons survive in a place like that? Can people live there?"
"You are so naive. They are all demons, with bodies made of resentment. How could they not be used to it?" The disciple said, "The resentful spirits of the demons feed on resentment and fear. They are sealed in the demon world and suppressed by a sealing formation. But sometimes some demons still run out of the seal to do evil. This time we are going to Beishan to eliminate the demons!"
As they were talking, the cloud ship had already landed.
Jian Yue watched the cloud ship land on the open ground below, and he said, "Won't it land on the North Mountain?"
Jiang Yu, who was standing next to him, replied, "There are demons causing chaos throughout the South Sea and the North Mountain. The cloud cars must be divided into different locations to prevent the demons from escaping further. We will set out from here to conduct a carpet search for traces of the demons. This disciple competition will also be judged by the number of demons captured and killed."
Jian Yue nodded.
In fact, it just separated all the disciples.
After everyone had started the cloud boat, someone had already opened a huge magic circle in the front. Elder Chang Feng, who was standing in the front, said, "A small team of 20 people will enter the magic circle. The magic circle will randomly send you to a place with the smell of demons. Everyone wears a jade pendant for help. It's up to you to extinguish the demons. Do you have confidence?"
The disciples said in unison: "Yes!"
Jian Yue and others were also randomly assigned to a team. He paid attention to see if he could be randomly assigned to the same team as Xiao Li and others, but unfortunately he didn't see them after looking around.
The only lucky thing is that I was assigned to the same group with Jiang Yu.
Everyone entered the magic circle together, and in the blink of an eye, they appeared in a new and unfamiliar place. When Jian Yue opened his eyes, he found that he and 20 other people were randomly teleported into a forest.
The trees are tall and lush, and this place is sparsely populated, with no villages or fields to be seen.
Someone asked, "Why were we sent here? What kind of demons and evil spirits are there? Is there something wrong with the magic circle?"
After turning around twice, the others also complained:
"Isn't this a waste of time?"
"I just don't know if the other disciples have found the demons and are already getting results!"
"Damn, our luck is so bad."
"Forget it, let's get down the mountain quickly!"
When Jian Yue heard that they were all going down the mountain, he said, "The elder said at the time that the magic circle would transport people to a place with the aura of demons and resentful spirits. Since it has been transported to this mountain, why don't we look for it nearby?"
Among these 20 people, there was one who was dressed the most luxuriously. He was obviously a disciple from a prominent family. Although he was also wearing the same disciple uniform, he had too many sachets on his body, and even the jade crown on his head was made of gold and jade.
As soon as he heard Jian Yue's words, he sneered and said, "Humph! There are no people or even ghosts in this deep forest. Only idiots like you are wasting your time here. I'm going to leave first. Who will come with me?"
As he spoke, he took out his magic weapon and flew the sword.
There were two or three disciples around him who were also a little hesitant, but they were obviously persuaded: "Let's go together! Master Nangong, take us with you!"
Young Master Nangong glanced at Jian Yue and the others. Seeing that Jian Yue did not agree, he snorted coldly and said directly: "A bunch of idiots, you will suffer the consequences of your own actions!"
They left.
This time, four or five people left, and the number of people in the team suddenly became a lot smaller.
The remaining people didn't trust Jian Yue, but because they didn't have magic weapons to travel, they couldn't leave at all. However, they were obviously persuaded by Nangong and were a little discouraged: "What a bad start!"
Jian Yue glanced at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu was a very silent person. He stood by the tree holding his sword without saying a word. He was different from when he was my apprentice and always pestered me to stay. He was really taciturn. Only when I looked at him did he finally say, "Let's go forward and try."
Jian Yue nodded, he meant the same thing.
No matter how others complained, Jian Yue and Jiang Yu walked forward together. The leaves in this forest were lush and numerous. He lifted the vines and slowly walked forward. After walking for about half an hour, he did not find any trace.
Just when some disciples were about to complain about why they hadn't gone down the mountain yet.
Jian Yue walked to Jiang Yu's side and suddenly said, "There is something wrong with this tree."
Jian Yue came closer and said, "What's the problem?"
Jiang Yu said: "The fruits under this tree have been picked. This season is the time when the fruits are most abundant, but there are few fruits under it. The birds in this forest like to eat the ones on the top. There are no fruits on the ground below. They must have been picked by people."
A disciple asked, "Is there anyone here?"
Jiang Yu didn't say anything.
Jian Yue thought for a moment and said, "There's more than one person here, right? What you mean is, if you say so, there are so many fruit trees nearby, but there are basically no fruits under them. One person probably can't finish eating so many in a short period of time. Even if he's in a hurry, this kind of fruit is the most abundant in this season, so he can just pick more after he finishes eating."
Jiang Yu looked at Jian Yue, then nodded slowly.
A disciple asked in confusion: "More than one person? Then why did they come here?"
Jian Yue said: "It is possible that they were passing through, or they were seeking refuge, because there were vicious wounding incidents in Beishan and Nanhai, and it is possible that the villagers nearby went up the mountain to seek refuge."
The disciple asked, "Then where are they? This is just your guess, right?"
Jiang Yu frowned slightly.
It's really hard to find it when it's all over the mountains, and it's even harder to find if it's hidden.
Jian Yue thought about it seriously and said, "Since they are fruit trees nearby, I think they should not be too far away. This is a low place and will be flooded when it rains. It's just a slightly higher place, that is..."
He glanced around.
The trees were towering, and right in everyone's sight, a huge rock appeared on the hillside not far away. Although everyone had doubts in their hearts, they still walked towards the rock together.
Originally the disciples had some complaints and did not want to join in the fun, saying that this place was sparsely populated and deep in the mountains, so where would people come from? This was a waste of time, and climbing up the boulder was also very tiring.
But amid the discussion of the crowd.
Jian Yue and others came behind the boulder, but they were still stunned.
Behind the boulder, there were several corpses lying horizontally and vertically. The corpses had been eaten away and only the skeletons were left. Blood was splattered on the rocks everywhere, it was a horrible sight.
Demon species.
It's really here.
