Volume 8, Chapter 17 [Starting from the Named Disciple]
In the Valley of Hundred Medicines, three young men and women are waiting for someone to come with anxious expressions. They don't know if the three of them will stay here after today. If not... they will feel that their lives have lost their color.
After not seeing each other for a year, the three of them have changed a lot. Among them, Lu Ahu has changed the most.
He originally looked like a muscular man with a powerful figure, but now he has become a tall and straight man with a masculine look. His hair is trimmed relatively short, but it looks a bit bumpy in some places. It seems that he cut it himself.
masterpiece.
The key is facial features. A year ago, Lu Ahu looked a bit stupid, but now his facial lines are clear and his facial features are much more three-dimensional. He gives the impression that he is much more handsome, and he has also grown a lot taller from the side.
It can be seen from the admiring expression in the eyes of the woman Tong Ling that Lu Ahu now indeed has a good appearance.
Tong Ling has grown taller and taller, and has grown from a young girl to a plump and beautiful woman. She had not noticed it before, but she started to have two small dimples when she smiled, making her look very cute.
Finally, there is Tong Cheng. His figure is slightly lower than Lu Ahu. The key is his appearance... it can no longer be described as handsome. It is too feminine. He is extremely beautiful, but he is similar to the male version of Tong Ling.
Why didn't I realize before that the two siblings were actually twins?
Tong Cheng was a little too enchanting, and he himself hated this appearance. He even considered giving himself a slash scar or a cross scar on his face. In short, he didn't want people to think that he looked like a woman. Fortunately, Tong Cheng was
Ling and Lu Ahu stopped him. The reason was that the senior would definitely be disgusted by his self-harm behavior and might not want him anymore. This made Tong Cheng give up the idea, but he later thought about designing a plan for himself.
The half-face mask was a bit scary and ferocious. When he put it on, he was satisfied. There was nothing the other two could do.
The day before, Wang Rui sent a transmission talisman, telling them that today they would come to test their achievements over the past year.
It should be said that the three of them actually succeeded, but it was relatively limited. Each of them had condensed a spiritual power of this attribute in their bodies, but they still couldn't be sure unless Wang Rui admitted it to them face to face.
At around 4 o'clock, a rainbow light flew over. The three of them had seen it many times and were already very familiar with Wang Rui.
With a roar, when the rainbow light approached the three people, it turned into a thunder and fell down, and then revealed its body shape.
Wang Rui, who had changed into a set of regular clothes, nodded to the three of them, and then motioned for the three of them to follow him to an open space next to the wooden house. From here, you can see the field that the three of them have cultivated over the past year.
At first, they only planted a little grain, but later they added more fruits and built sheds. Then they continued to replenish the fields, and now they have dozens of acres of farmland, forming a rather spectacular farmland.
Angry, Wang Rui saw a long-lost anger here. This was a long-lost anger that he had never seen since the deaths of Chen Qi and Chen Fuzhi.
"Thank you." Wang Rui said sincerely. The three of them were all surprised. They didn't expect that these fields would be praised by this senior.
As a woman, Tong Ling is particularly sensitive in terms of sensibility. He seemed to feel a deep sadness and nostalgia from Wang Rui's eyes as he looked at these fields.
"Senior...could it be that your friend once lived in this valley?" Tong Ling couldn't help but ask.
Wang Rui nodded and said: "This is the place where I first lived. It was also where my Taoist companions and I lived as sworn brothers for a long time, so every plant, tree, flower and fruit here has their traces.
"
"Then they..." Tong Ling continued to ask, but was interrupted by his brother on the side.
"Xiao Ling, shut up!" Tong Cheng suddenly felt something. This was definitely not a happy ending. It was probably... so he immediately stopped Tong Ling from asking.
The three of them immediately knelt down for fear of offending the senior.
Wang Rui sighed and said: "I don't mean to blame you. My Taoist companions and brothers were separated a few years ago, but sooner or later I will find their reincarnations. Okay, get up, let's start today's assessment
Bar."
The three of them all breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if they didn't know about such a secret thing. Tong Cheng had always felt insecure in his heart. Although he was grateful to Wang Rui, he didn't fully trust him. After all, he didn't fully trust Wang Rui a year ago.
The bloody trial on that thunderstorm night was not something a kind person could do, even though the final result was that he saved the three of them.
First, Lu Ahu showed off his own skills. His "Golden Ming Jue" allows him to perceive the properties of various metals, and it can also strengthen weapons. Even at the highest stage, with certain materials, he can directly turn stones into gold.
, to create weapons and magic weapons.
Lu Ahu raised his arm and started running the technique. Suddenly, the weak spiritual power in his body began to slowly travel along his meridians, then quickly came to his arm, and finally a spiritual light bloomed through the palm of his hand. This spiritual light brought
There was an aura of sharpness and metal, and even a hint of thunder and lightning power, which surprised Wang Rui.
Wang Rui had actually sensed it a long time ago, but since he wanted to test it, he gave them a chance to show it off.
Although this spiritual power is weak, it already has the power of a monk in the early stage of Qi training.
"Okay, Ahu, stand aside first, next!" Wang Rui did not directly tell the result of whether he passed or not, which made Lu Ahu suddenly feel nervous again.
Then came Tong Cheng, who practiced fire-based skills. He was indeed more talented. With just a few movements, he could release the fire-based spiritual power, and the temperature of the surrounding air immediately rose rapidly. In the end, he directly used
One of the most basic spells - "Fire Ball", the spiritual power turned into a fire ball and fell directly on a small tree in the distance, and the small tree was instantly ignited.
"You are punished to plant ten more trees. Now go and fetch water to put out the fire, otherwise..." Wang Rui's words made Tong Cheng's face change greatly, and he immediately went to fetch water in a panic.
Lu Ahu also wanted to help, but Wang Ruihe stopped him, so he could only scratch his scalp in embarrassment and stay where he was.
Finally it was Tong Ling's turn, and now she was a little nervous.
"Your brother is too smart, so I have to punish him. You are different, so don't be nervous." Wang Rui comforted him.
Tong Ling immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then started to run the "Ten Thousand Wood Skills". The wood spiritual power did not appear in her palms, but directly spread throughout her body. Suddenly, the surrounding flowers and plants were entangled, and those that had not bloomed even blossomed directly.
, the weeds have also become much thicker, and even squirming like a python, a bit tough.
"Okay, qualified!" Wang Rui said a qualified evaluation for the first time, and Tong Ling suddenly jumped up with excitement.
Lu Ahu looked at Wang Rui with a look of resentment, as pitiful as a puppy.
"Well, you're qualified too!" Wang Rui didn't want to tease him any more, so he also commented. Lu Ahu immediately laughed happily. Although he had changed from a muscular man to a handsome young man, he still felt a little silly.
At this time, Tong Ling couldn't bear to see his brother carrying water to put out the fire, sweating profusely, and asked cautiously: "Senior, I... where is my brother?"
Wang Rui squinted his eyes, glanced at Tong Cheng in the distance, and said: "He is naturally qualified and the best among the three of you, but don't help him. Sometimes he is too smart, so he often does nothing.
"If you don't change your temper, you will suffer a lot in the future. You can tell him after I leave."
After saying that, Wang Rui stood up, took out three primary storage bags, and gave them to the two of them.
"This is what the registered disciples of the Xutian Sect received when they started. It contains two sets of winter and summer sect robes and a primary magic weapon. There is also a record of several spells suitable for your current practice. You are just registering them now.
Disciple, I will give you some extra spiritual stones, ten bottles of Qi Gathering Pills and a talisman. If you can be promoted to an outer disciple with your own abilities in the next three years, I will accept you as a disciple.
Otherwise, just work hard as a registered disciple." After Wang Rui sent the storage bag out, he assigned them new goals again.
Lu Ahu and Tong Ling both bowed and nodded. Since their senior continues to test them, they must continue to work hard.
"Senior, can we...can we still go in and out of the Hundred Medicine Valley in the future?" Tong Ling looked around with some reluctance. This year was the happiest day for her in these years. She didn't have to worry about eating.
Wear, as long as you work hard and practice hard, you can enjoy a free life. Such a life is the life of gods.
Wang Rui threw the token that controlled the Hundred Medicine Valley formation to her and said, "You can come back at any time, there will always be a place for you here, but don't destroy the flowers and plants here like Tong Cheng did, otherwise I will be very angry.
." After saying that, Wang Rui waved his hand and walked away. As a thunder sounded, it turned into a rainbow and escaped.
"Huh... I was scared to death. Senior was really scary just now." Lu Ahu let out a deep breath.
Tong Ling shook his head and said, "I think senior is pretty good, he's quite approachable."
"That's not so friendly to you, not to me and A Cheng." Lu Ahu complained.
Tong Ling smiled and said: "Senior said that in three years, as long as we are promoted to outer disciples based on our abilities, he will accept us as disciples. I will definitely do it."
"Me too." Lu Ahu replied not to be outdone.
At this time, Tong Cheng, who finally put out the fire, came back, sat down on the ground, and complained: "I'm so exhausted, seniors are so unkind sometimes."
"Humph, brother, you deserve it. Just show off your cultivation results. Why do you have to use the technique you just learned to perform?" Tong Ling reprimanded him rudely at this time.
"I...I don't want to let senior accept us as disciples on the spot!" Tong Cheng said a little aggrievedly.
Lu Ahu on the side also said with disapproval: "Senior said that you are too flexible and like clever things. You must change it, otherwise you will suffer losses in the future."
"Huh, I..." He was about to retort, but when he saw Tong Ling and Lu Ahu staring at him, he had no choice but to lower his head and nodded.
"Here, this is for you, brother." After saying that, Tong Ling handed him the storage bag belonging to Tong Cheng, and then told them the next three-year goal that Wang Rui had set for them.
Tong Cheng clenched his fists and said, "Outer disciple, I will definitely do it." The other two people also nodded confidently. From this moment on, the three of them started a new journey.
