The Stabilizing Pill can calm the mind, and when the test subject is about to collapse, it can restore a trace of clarity. One pill for each person.
There is no hard and fast rule that you have to take the elixir yourself. If you want, you can give it to others, and you can also sell it.
A few years ago, someone took advantage of a loophole and hired a dozen civilians to conduct assessments. This group of people entered the cave, directly gave the magic pill to the hirers, and ran away without looking back.
The owner of the village was furious and destroyed the Dantian of the hired man overnight. The civilians who were hired were also captured and whipped ten times, and three of them were whipped to death.
However, the owner of the village did not completely ban the sending of elixirs, but only added:
[The person who gave you the elixir, if you can pass the test, forget the past! If you fail the test and still refuse to take the elixir, I will send you to hell with ten whips!]
At this point, no one dares to take advantage of the loophole.
Anyone who dares to give pills is guaranteed to make extra money, and the villa allows it.
…
People sit in a circle, just like the handkerchief game.
There are already three people sitting in the inner circle.
Qin Jinyang was in the second ring and was the last one.
Coincidentally, Wang Jixiang was also in the second ring. He was the first one, connected end to end, and the two of them actually sat together.
"Brother Qin, you have a strong relationship...could it be Feng..."
Wang Jixiang was very happy.
"Well……"
Qin Jinyang smiled and could only smile.
The others stared at Qin Jinyang with doubts on their faces.
How could a commoner wearing scrap linen clothes be in the second ring?
eccentric!
But people didn’t talk too much nonsense.
"Brother Qin, let me tell you something else... The Villa established the Yaoxing Hall because it has mastered a secret treasure that can enhance the root bone. If you can detect the high-quality black iron root bone, you must choose the Yaoxing Hall...
…If it’s Silver Root Bone, you should choose Yao Xing Tang.”
"Senior Brother Xu Longjie wants to be promoted to the Golden Root Bone. There are soups all over Yao Xing Hall. This opportunity is once in a lifetime... It's a pity that the upper, middle and lower grade Black Iron Root Bone has no chance!"
Wang Jixiang muttered.
"Understood!"
Qin Jinyang nodded.
Being promoted to Gen Gu is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, who wouldn't be jealous!
But...I don't care about it.
Also, is Yaoxingtang dangerous?
Helan Villa has many rivals, and these geniuses will definitely be targeted.
no.
I take the path of development and pay attention to keeping things steady.
…
Testers came in one after another, and soon the surface of the Lingshi was filled with people.
"quiet!"
The leader of Huoqu Hall walked in with a dark face, and the cave immediately became silent.
Then, several more people came in.
Feng Zhongfu.
The master of the harsh tiger hall.
The young genius, Xu Longjie.
Next to Xu Longjie, there was a young and beautiful girl in red, with two very long braids and a mole on her nose.
"Shangdantang, Xue Bingbing!"
Qin Jinyang glanced at the braided girl from a distance and muttered in his heart.
Xue Bingbing is the third senior sister of Shangdan Hall. She is the biggest supporter of Zhang Changlan brother and sister, so she has an impression.
Quite beautiful.
Her legs are slender and round, and her figure is better than that of senior sister Xu Wenqing.
I heard from Wang Jixiang that although Xue Bingbing will not join Yaoxingtang, she can give Xu Longjie some advice on recruiting disciples.
…
"Why are there people from the Handyman Hall coming to test? The world is in decline..."
The leader of the Harsh Hall looked at Qin Jinyang from a distance and made a mocking laugh.
When Feng Zhongfu puts someone in, someone will fall out. The person being squeezed out is precisely his relationship, and he feels very angry.
However, Feng Zhongfu only appointed one person on behalf of Houshengtang, and he had no reason to refuse.
"Heroes don't ask where they come from. Young people have dreams. Is it wrong?"
Feng Zhongfu asked coldly.
Qin Jinyang was dressed well and was very eye-catching sitting in the center, and everyone else also paid attention.
The leader of Huoqu Hall has no attitude, as long as his people are not squeezed out.
Xu Longjie also glanced at Qin Jinyang, his expression calm.
Xue Bingbing frowned at the side: "This person... this person... Have I seen it somewhere... I suddenly can't remember... I must have seen it..."
She rubbed her eyebrows.
The attendant who had married and left suddenly appeared in her mind, and then she thought of the orphan...
It's him!
In a small town, a young man secretly delivers food to orphans in a ruined temple.
Yes, it's him.
"Junior sister, what's wrong with you? Do you know anyone?"
Seeing that Xue Bingbing's expression was abnormal, Xu Longjie asked curiously: "If anyone wants to enter Yaoxing Hall, all he needs is a word from junior sister."
"Let's consider them acquaintances...take the test first, and then talk after the test..."
Xue Bingbing said.
Yao Xingtang is no small matter. Although this person has a kind heart, his kindness cannot change his core.
He is capable and can help him secretly.
If it's a waste, there's nothing you can do about it.
It turned out that he was from the villa and came from the handyman hall.
…
"Everyone, get ready, let the bone boil begin!"
Three masters of the lower third hall and two disciples of the upper single hall, a total of five masters, were sitting in different directions in the cave.
Their fingertips shot out a ball of mist at the same time, gradually sinking into the spiritual stone.
Suddenly, the spiritual stone, which was originally bluestone-like, revealed a faint purple luster.
The five people are both invigilators and spell casters who maintain the operation of the spirit stone.
From now on, the examinees will spend two days and two nights in the cave. Under the cover of the spiritual stone, ordinary people will not be hungry, let alone eat, drink and relieve themselves. The whole person will be in a state of fasting.
If anyone is unconscious, they will be thrown to the outside of the spirit stone and fall asleep, and will not be able to see the light of day again until two days later.
puff!
After just a dozen breaths, a thin young man in the outermost circle vomited out a mouthful of blood.
Pressure came from all directions. Everyone blushed, gritted their teeth, and clenched their fists.
It hurts!
A group of young people looked like pieces of garlic that had been peeled clean, nestled in a stone mortar, and being beaten.
one time!
Twice!
It hurts so much that I don’t want to live.
…
Tick tock!
Tick tock!
I don’t know how much time passed, but beads of sweat began to fall on people’s foreheads.
The sweat beads seemed to contain a strong corrosive power. The spirit stone was stained with sweat and actually melted, turning into a puddle of gray mud.
…
"This is mud qualification, and the testing method is quite mysterious."
Qin Jinyang also felt the pain, but the Dajiang Gong in his body was operating on its own, and the strong Qi counteracted the pressure over and over again. He was only slightly numb, not in much pain.
Of course, beads of sweat are still falling, just like anyone else.
He even showed a very painful expression. If he was found to be in no pain, he would definitely be suspected.
"After a while, rotten wood will grow in the mud..."
Qin Jinyang glanced at Wang Jixiang from the corner of his eye.
This kid is quite calm, his bones have emerged from the mud, and his progress is not slow.
No one in the inner circle has taken Stabilizing Pill yet, but someone in the outer circle has already taken it.
Qin Jinyang also discovered something strange.
Xue Bingbing glances at herself from time to time, and her eyes are very special...it seems to be...appreciation?
Although he has first-rate looks, in this world, where strength is king, a pretty boy is easily laughed at. He is definitely not a girl’s first choice in choosing a mate.
…
Outside Helan Villa!
Many people looked sad and brought back several coffins.
Zhou Xiaosu knelt outside the mountain gate, staring blankly at one of the coffins.
Bai Lijie is lying in the coffin.
Three hours ago, there was urgent information that Huoqutang was ambushed by a group of bandits. Three outer disciples were killed on the spot, and countless others were killed.
Zhou Xiaosu was lucky and did not follow Bai Lijie.
