The assessment released by the director is very simple. Each person cuts a hundred bundles of trees in the back mountain and brings them back to the director before dawn. Only those who pass can stay.

The task sounded simple, but the five big and three rough men didn't take it seriously, but were eager to show their fists.

Only Yunwan knew that there was a ghost in it. Li Xuanyou once mentioned: Kunshan treasure land, everything has animism, even the grass plants planted on the ground are not trivial, presumably that tree is not an ordinary tree.

As soon as it got dark, everyone went into the mountain in twos and threes with tools.

Yun Wan was the only woman here, and because of her poor physical strength, she walked and rested for a while, and was soon left behind in the line, and the rest of the people didn't take her seriously at all.

Soon they disappeared in front of them, Yun Wan didn't follow the large army, and walked to another road quickly.

The Kunlun Fairyland is blessed by the moon god, and the aura becomes more abundant at night. There are many trees in the back mountain, and there is almost no place to stay. The strange thing is that there are many trees but no flowers and plants. The ground is only intricately rooted in the soil.

Yunwan gripped the ax tightly, and Qi Ling, who had been sleeping lightly, suddenly opened his mouth: "This is a copper cypress, which can be used as firewood when cut down, but as long as it is connected to the root, it will eat all edible things to provide nutrition for the root. ]

The roots of this tree can stretch thousands of miles underground. The branches, leaves, and trunk are all pregnant with roots. When the trunk is cut down, new ones will immediately grow. As long as the roots do not die, the tree will always bloom unbeaten no matter whether it is winter or summer.

As soon as Qi Ling finished speaking, screams resounded in the forest. Someone must have become Tongbai's nourishment.

[If you are calling me for something, I will rest first. ]

Qi Ling didn't worry about her safety at all, and concentrated on absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.

She clenched the ax tightly, and there was an extremely slight rubbing sound in her ears. Yun Wan reacted quickly, splitting the tree trunk with one axe.

It was only then that she realized that the surrounding branches looked like human hands, with teeth and claws showing. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a group of demons dancing wildly, but once cut down, they turned into ordinary branches again. It's no wonder that Master Zhang asked them to come here for assessment.

One is to test their strength; the other is to test their ability to survive.

Yun Wan disliked the ax being in the way, threw the ax away, and chopped with a hand knife, and then gathered all the cut trees together. Tongbai had a spirit, and seeing that she was not as harmless as she appeared on the surface, she immediately thought of retreating, and then listened to When someone muttered, it seemed to be a tree spirit—

"This, isn't this the woman who bullied Langgan?"

"By hand, it seems to be..."

"It's scary. It's spread throughout the tree spirit world. I heard that she wiped out Langgan's family."

"Oh, your information is not accurate, you obviously ate up their whole family."

"Yes, yes, after eating, he has to give the remaining roots to his youngest son. As a mortal, it is really cruel."

"...??"

Yun Wan's head was full of question marks, where did these rumors come from?

Tongbai retracted his claws silently, turned into a well-behaved branch and hovered above his head, afraid that Yunwan would eat the tree, and deliberately curled up the branches and leaves, leaving only a bare trunk standing upright in front of his eyes.

Yun Wan was dumbfounded.

Looking back, I counted the ones that were cut down, and it was estimated that there would be enough for a hundred bundles.

She didn't plan to chop any more, and decided to take a break before going back.

Yun Wan sat down against the tree, not noticing that someone was quietly observing him in the dark night.

Xie Tingyun knew that Yunwan would not get started so easily, but he never thought that she would be reduced to the point of being in charge of the boss. It was inconvenient for him to approach, so he pondered for a while, and decided to turn into a certain small animal, but he didn't know what kind of small animal Yun Wan liked...

"If only there was a pig."

The night was quiet, and the muttering could be heard clearly.

A look of embarrassment flashed across Xie Tingyun's eyes, and he finally chose to compromise, transforming himself into a pink and tender little pig, staggering, and walking in front of Yun Wan whimpering.

Yun Wan didn't notice yet, she closed her eyes and rested.

"Hmph." Xie Tingyun nuzzled her leg with his pig's nose.

Yun Wan lowered her head in confusion.

Since Taoism, he has transformed into many animals, including dragons and snakes, but he has never turned into a pig!

Xie Tingyun hadn't observed the pig's behavior in detail. He lay awkwardly on the ground, showing her belly, and wagging his tail by the way. After thinking about it, the pig didn't seem to be able to wag its tail, so it stopped immediately, but the curly pig's tail still swayed slightly uncontrollably.

Yun Wan didn't expect that there would really be pigs here, and was immediately dumbfounded.

She picked up the little pig, put it on her lap and looked at it carefully: the little fragrant pig is white and pink, clean, and there is not much mud on its paws. Those eyes are bright, and the pig's nose is arched, showing a bit of cuteness.

Yun Wan touched him.

Xie Tingyun enjoyed it very much, his tail wagging even more joyfully.

—As long as you can be next to Yun Wan, you can be a pig.

"Male and female?"

With that said, Yun Wan was going to pick it up and have a look.

Xie Tingyun pinched his tail, resisting to break free from her arms, and put his four fingers together full of vigilance.

"Hehe, are you still shy?" Yun Wan chuckled, "Forget it, just stay here."

Xie Tingyun didn't understand what she was going to do, so he quietly lay on the ground and watched.

She took out a few firewood from the side, piled them together to form a bonfire, and wove a simple grill with the remaining branches. After doing all this, she took out a knife and approached Xie Tingyun step by step.

Xie Tingyun: "..." I have a bad feeling.

"Seeing how cute you are, why not roast you."

?

? ?

Hear this is a human language?

Yun Wan, is there really no sunshine in your heart?

Xie Tingyun Sa Yazi ran away, running so fast that her hind hoof was even tilted.

Finally escaped to a safe place, Xie Tingyun returned to human form, and leaned against the tree trunk, still in shock.

Yunwan wanted pigs for food, so the other little rabbits, snakes, snakes, and chickens probably had the same result. There is no way, now they can only...

Xie Tingyun tidied up her clothes and emotions, pretended to go out naturally, and softly called her name through the twilight: "Wanwan."

Yun Wan slightly raised her eyebrows, how is it going now, do you want to cooperate with the performance?

"Why are you here?" Yun Wan forced a surprised reaction.

Xie Tingyun's expression was as usual: "I came from Bafanggang and wanted to see how you are doing."

"Oh~ So that's the case~"

Yun Wan elongated her tone, and Xie Tingyun couldn't help feeling guilty with her yin and yang tone.

"Then did you see a pink pig?"

"No."

Even knowing that Yun Wan had already guessed his identity, he was still trying to calm himself down.

Yun Wan is not stupid.

Tongbaishu eats all life, such a small pig can't even live here for half a second, she just didn't expect that Xie Tingyun would dare to turn herself into a pig.

Xie Tingyun didn't look sideways, and sat beside her naturally, adding more firewood, the bonfire was burning brightly, and the firelight imprinted on his face, making his face even more beautiful.

"How was the assessment?"

"Cut me out."

Xie Tingyun was not surprised.

He changed his disguise and mixed in among the beginners, and he knew everything that happened.

Yun Wan found someone to talk to, and couldn't wait to complain: "You say I'm a foundation builder now, but foundation builders are so worthless now? Can't even pass the first test?"

Xie Tingyun: "What did he say?"

Yun Wan thought about it carefully: "The root bones are soft, and the spiritual power is difficult to gather."

"It's understandable." Xie Tingyun explained lightly, "A cultivator not only depends on his cultivation, but also on his spiritual bones. A hundred years ago, the Kunlun Sect once produced a rare talent named Changsheng. Establishing the foundation, the head of the Kunlun Sect prefers Changsheng, and intends to train him to be the next head of the sect."

Yun Wan listened carefully.

"It's a pity that Changsheng only lived to be thirteen years old. He was born weak and his life was frivolous. The spiritual bone in his body was weaker than other members of the same sect, and he couldn't bear the improvement of cultivation day after day. Broken and died. After the death of Changsheng, the Kunlun sect paid more attention to the spiritual bones of the disciples, and the first part of the entry test was to touch the bones, no matter whether you are refining Qi or building a foundation, as long as your roots are not stable, you will still not be accepted."

After all, Xie Tingyun comforted Yun Wan: "However, your bones are limp and weak, which may be related to the exercises you have learned before." He asked, "What kind of exercises did you practice before?"

Spring, eroticism.

Yun Wan's eyes drifted away, not daring to tell Xie Tingyun the truth.

In order for the disciples of the Hehuan School to better learn the magic method of Hehuan, they will practice the art of cartilage at the beginning, and when the body bones are soft, they can control any posture, so she lost here.

Moreover, the female supporting role is too young to have a good life, which also fits the category of weak fate. The old man probably saw that her body was short-lived, and he was afraid that she would die young, so he refused to enter.

So she is still out of luck with this body.

hatred!

Xie Tingyun laughed with Yun Wan's unsatisfied expression, "Aren't you looking for physical training? From now on, I will teach you the Chun Jue Brocade, and if you persist for a long time, it will not only strengthen your bones, but also improve your cultivation."

Why does the name of this exercise sound so inappropriate?

"Is it an orthodox practice?"

Xie Tingyun choked: "Otherwise? Where do you want to go?"

Yunwan's ears were reddish, and she twitched her fingers: "Then, will that figure become stronger through cultivation?"

"No." Xie Tingyun smiled, "This technique is about concentrating energy and concentrating strength to fix the foundation. As long as you master the Spring Art Brocade, it will be easy to learn anything in the future."

Yunwan's main strength now comes from the air-entraining cloth body he taught her earlier. If one day the shortcoming of "air leakage" can be overcome, combined with the current physique, it is only a matter of time before she ascends.

Yunwan didn't expect Xie Tingyun to be so considerate, it's fine to come to her specially, and he is willing to teach her the exercises, she was immediately full of gratitude, and couldn't help asking: "Is your master still accepting people? If your master accepts people , I don’t need to come here on purpose.”

Xie Tingyun's expression changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice, "No."

Yun Wan lightly tugged at his sleeve and shook it, coquettishly: "Just ask~ in case you accept it..."

"No." Xie Tingyun refused decisively, without even a little room for negotiation, "It violates ethics."

Is it against ethics?

That's right, if she really entered Cangwu Palace, she and Xie Tingyun would be brothers, Yun Wan giggled twice: "It's okay, your master doesn't know that we have slept together."

Alternative office romance, fuck, exciting.

Yun Wan swallowed her saliva involuntarily, feeling a little restless in her heart.

Her eyes are naked, Xie Tingyun don't look away.

If Yun Wan entered Cangwu Palace, he would be his apprentice. Whether it was in the cultivation world or the world of human beings, it would be indecent for a master-student to fall in love with each other, which is not to be ridiculed.

If it is known by the way of heaven, disaster will come down.

It's easy for him to say, but he can't let Yun Wan suffer.

but…

They don't seem to be in love with each other.

Xie Tingyun became more and more confused as he thought about it, so he stood up abruptly: "You should meditate for an hour every day, and I will teach you the exercises after one month." After a pause, "Remember to hold your breath and avoid distracting thoughts."

Yun Wan said: "But if you don't sleep with me, I will keep thinking wildly."

Xie Tingyun's fingertips trembled slightly: "What?"

Yun Wan chuckled, and didn't bother to continue teasing him: "You're kidding, I'm still in the exam, how could I sleep with you."

Yun Wan picked up the firewood: "I'm going back, be careful, it will be terrible if you are discovered by the Kunlun Sect."

Xie Tingyun watched the slender figure leave his sight with heavy eyes.

In fact, as long as she persists, he will...

Xie Tingyun didn't dare to think about it, closed his eyes and recited the Qingxin mantra several times before he calmed down, calmed down, and turned around inside Bafanggang.
