Soon there was a large group of ordinary people in the marching team.
Carrying food and other things they couldn't abandon, they followed the monks' team and marched slowly.
As expected, these ordinary people with no cultivation seriously slowed down the team's progress.
Ordinary people have limited physical strength and need to rest every once in a while. Because of fear, they have to be careful every step they take.
The monks had already expected such a situation, but when it happened, they discovered that it was far more serious than imagined.
It is definitely much more difficult than imagined to escort a group of mortals and successfully leave the dark place.
But even so, the young monks must endure it silently, because this is the requirement of the mission.
Through such an incident, they realized the difficulties of mortals and the benefits of becoming monks.
When facing a desperate situation, most mortals are helpless, but monks may change their fate against the will of heaven.
Witnessing all kinds of suffering in the world will actually strengthen your determination to practice Taoism. After all, only good and bad can be distinguished through comparison.
As the team marched, they would encounter evil monsters from time to time, but they were easily dealt with by the young monks.
Compared to the evil leader, these little monsters were nothing to mention, which made the young monks feel a little relieved.
The Loucheng monks who led the team didn't say much from beginning to end. Most of the time, they would just act like invisible people.
After all, the participants in this training trial are a group of young monks. If they interfere too much, it will affect the final effect.
Leiter followed the team and would help mortals from time to time, encouraging them to persevere.
He comes from the grassroots and has a better understanding of the sufferings of mortals. Unlike these young monks who come from the City of Spiritual Bones, they have lived in Lou City since birth.
The life of mortals is too far away from these young monks, and is not even in the same world at all.
Even in the fourth theater, there are no mortals at all.
But during the march, Leiter always felt a little uneasy, as if there was a fatal danger ahead.
Although he had this premonition, Leiter did not dare to speak out.
There are dangers everywhere in the dark place. Even if Leiter said there was danger ahead, he would not pay much attention to it.
There are dangers not only in front, but also behind and on the left and right. As long as you enter this dark place, you will be surrounded by dangers.
The smartest thing to do is to simply ignore it and move forward.
Leiter knew this, and since he had just joined the team, he didn't want to cause more trouble.
To avoid being disliked by others and being kicked out of the team.
However, as the team continued to move forward, the uneasy feeling became stronger and stronger, but there was nothing unusual around them.
It's just some small evil spirits that are completely vulnerable to attack. It is impossible for Lei Te to have such a premonition.
Leiter kept looking around, trying to find the source of the danger, but found nothing.
"Little guy, what are you looking around for?"
Although he was in darkness, Leiter's abnormal behavior still attracted the attention of the leading monk.
Leiter didn't know that he was the target of attention, and the way he looked around had already aroused the vigilance of the team leaders.
Upon hearing the team leader's inquiry, Leiter hesitated for a moment and then expressed his feelings.
If he knows something is wrong, he should speak out decisively, otherwise he will feel uneasy and ashamed if an accident occurs.
This is not only saving people, but also saving himself. Lei Te has accumulated a lot of good things, so he naturally hopes to return smoothly.
"I feel that there is a huge crisis ahead, which makes people feel like they are falling into an abyss..."
Leiter was not exaggerating. He did feel this way, and as he continued to move forward, this feeling became more and more serious.
After hearing Leite's story, the leading monk did not take it lightly.
This kind of whim premonition can often help monks avoid crises. They are not aware of it simply because they do not have such a chance.
Something happened to Lei Te, but the cause has not been figured out yet, but the danger was predicted in advance.
It would really be unjustifiable to ignore it.
"Stop!"
The leading monk issued the order and gathered together to discuss it, obviously taking this matter very seriously.
The young monks next to him came up curiously and asked what he had foreseen?
It didn't take long for the two team leaders to leave, apparently to explore the front.
They didn't want to change their route, but they wouldn't ignore Leiter's premonition, so they took the initiative to explore the route.
Wait until it is confirmed before making the next decision.
Without waiting too long, the two Loucheng monks returned, and then the team began to move forward again.
Apparently, after investigating and confirming that there was no great danger, they followed the original planned route.
Leiter's uneasy feeling became more and more intense. If he hadn't suppressed it forcefully, he might have screamed in panic.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing since he started practicing, and he always felt that he was about to fall into collapse and madness.
The strong feeling of uneasiness urged him to leave the team quickly and stop moving forward with the team.
I don't know how many times Lei Te wanted to follow his heart and escape, but in the end he was suppressed by him.
Because he knew very well that this was his opportunity to become a monk in Loucheng, and he would regret it if he missed it.
But that kind of intense fear was like a snake eating his heart, making Leiter's body tremble non-stop.
Such a strong abnormality could be seen clearly by anyone, which made a group of Loucheng monks startled and confused.
The leading monk, who had carefully investigated before and confirmed that there was no problem ahead, could not help but secretly doubt it at this moment.
The investigation has obviously been completed and there is no danger at all. Why is Leiter still looking like this?
Or maybe there is a hidden danger that even they haven't discovered yet.
If this is indeed the case, the level of danger is far greater than expected, and it is very likely that the group will be wiped out.
"Little guy, are you sure there is danger ahead?"
The leader of the team, the Loucheng monk, asked Leite again, and he was indeed very responsible.
"It's not that there is danger ahead, but..."
Leiter had a horrified expression on his face, raised his hand and pointed forward, his trembling voice revealing despair.
"Already here!"
At the same time, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the team.
It was a wizard in white robes, with horrific wounds all over his body, and every wound was fatal.
He was walking on the ground with his bare feet dripping blood, and his numb face showed no expression, which made people feel extremely strange.
Around his body, there were nine essence and blood lamps floating, three of which were already lit.
Extreme uneasiness and fear suddenly arose in the hearts of the monks, and they felt Lei Te's hardship and pain.
The mortals in the team were already kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and praying, as if they were crazy.
The minds of these mortals have been severely affected by unknown forces, so they behave like this.
Looking at a group of Loucheng monks, they also wanted to kneel down and worship, as if the person in front of them was the supreme god.
There was also a group of young monks who were already half-kneeling on the ground.
"Stand up for me, a local evil god in such a state of embarrassment is worthy of a monk from Loucheng kneeling down and worshiping!"
The leader monk's voice sounded, with ridicule and anger in his tone.
Hearing the leader's angry rebuke, the young monks were startled and quickly got out of their confused state.
From the very beginning of their practice, the monks in Loucheng have been instilled with the idea that gods from other worlds do not need to be respected and worshiped, but they are just local chickens and dogs.
At this moment, after being angrily scolded by the team leader, the young monks immediately woke up and quickly entered a fighting state.
