The next morning, Qin Ming finished delivering the goods and returned to the warehouse with the stone jar. He saw Yue Qing standing under the old tree in the courtyard, quietly looking at the solitary tomb with a monument but no words.
Yue Qing is gentle, quiet, beautiful and graceful. No matter which angle you look at it, it is so beautiful, as beautiful as a fairy in a painting.
Her long hair is like a waterfall, and it is draped softly in the purple dress. The dress fits well, showing off her impeccable figure just right.
"Who is buried in this tomb?" Yue Qing still remembers the lonely figure of the old man. Every day and every night, sunny or rainy, he would sit here, vigil for the deceased, and tend to the magnolia flowers beside the grave. The lonely look and the sad feeling of loneliness make people feel sad.
She once asked the master who the old man was and where he came from. The master didn't even know that there was an old man here, and even went to investigate from a distance. Later, he said that he was just an ordinary old man, with no fluctuations in spiritual power, and he didn't look like a warrior.
No one in the Qingyun Sect paid attention to an old and lonely old man, but Yue Qing knew in her heart that this old man's identity was not simple.
"The old man never talked about the people in the grave." Qin Ming walked to the warehouse, put down the stone jar, picked up a bucket of water from the well, and washed away the sweat all over his body.
"Didn't he say anything before he left?"
"I left the sword code, the ancient sword, and a note with one word on it, life." Qin Ming scooped water to clean in the warehouse, not shying away from Yue Qing.
"Fate." Yueqing looked at the lonely grave and whispered to herself. "It's you, him, or fate."
"I have a hunch that I will see the old man again in the future." Qin Ming scooped up cold water from his head and feet, shook his head refreshingly, and said with a smile: "When that day comes, I will try my best to let the old man see a different Qin Ming."
"I believe you." Yueqing's face behind the purple veil was stunning, and she smiled sweetly, making the whole warehouse compound seem much brighter. "I have good news for you."
Qin Ming was laughing in the warehouse. "I just love good news."
"Your practice of the Purple Lightning Crazy Snake has been approved. It is determined that this set of martial arts is your personal property and does not belong to the Qingyun Sect's martial arts resources. The elders debated this matter for five days. At first, they were preparing to punish you and determined that someone else secretly I gave you the martial arts, but later I found no evidence."
"Then I can often exchange martial arts from outside in the future."
"You, you already have enough martial arts. You don't need so many martial arts during the spiritual martial arts period."
Qin Ming quickly washed himself, put on clean clothes and walked out, stretching his limbs, holding the Dayan Ancient Sword and preparing to practice: "Spar with me?"
"Later, I'm here to say goodbye today."
"Where are you going?" Qin Ming was surprised.
"I will be in seclusion for three months and go out to practice with the master. I may have to leave for a long time."
"Where are you going to practice?" Qin Ming was happy for Yue Qing. If she wanted to improve her current level, she really needed to venture into the outside world and experience dangers and hardships. With Elder Mubai personally accompanying him, safety is guaranteed.
"Master is still thinking about it. According to the original plan, I would first attend the Eight Sects Tea Party and then practice outside. Now the plan has changed."
"Eight Sects Tea Party?" Qin Ming remembered. It was a large-scale gathering held every two years among the eight sects in the Northern Territory. The eight giants met and the accompanying disciples competed and competed. It has become a routine gathering for hundreds of years.
It is said that on the day of the tea party, the entire Northern Territory will pay attention.
As the ruler of the Northern Territory, any important decision of the Eight Sects will directly affect the situation of the Northern Territory in the next two years, and even the 'Five Kings' will take it seriously.
For ordinary people, they are more concerned about 'competition and competition'.
The specifications of the competition can basically represent the strongest strength of the new generation in the Northern Territory, and the top five selected each time will be famous in the Northern Territory and even be awarded unique titles. This is a supreme honor.
"Why don't you participate? With your ability, there is no pressure to be in the top five."
"Master has his own considerations and has discussed it with the sect leader." Her master had hoped to take her to the Eight Sects Tea Party to win honor for the Qingyun Sect, but the proposal of marriage from Prince Mang's Palace disrupted the plan. It was not that Elder Mubai was afraid They were worried that Prince Mang's Mansion would interfere with the tea party.
It is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.
The Qingyun Sect has placed too many hopes on Yue Qing, and it cannot ruin her future just for the sake of the Eight Sects Tea Party.
Yue Qing suddenly asked: "Do you want to participate?"
"Me? The disciples who participated in the Eight Sect Tea Party are generally from the ninth level of Lingwu and the Xuanwu Realm. I am still far behind."
"There are still three months left, you still have a chance."
"Three months, from the sixth level of Lingwu to the ninth level of Lingwu?" Qin Ming shook his head. It was not that he lacked confidence, but that it was very difficult to break through in the late Lingwu realm. He can go from the third level of Lingwu to the sixth level of Lingwu in three months, but he may not be able to go from the sixth level of Lingwu to the ninth level of Lingwu in three months.
"Each sect will bring ten disciples to the eight sect tea parties. Each disciple must be under the age of eighteen. Except for me, the four Jin Ling disciples have been decided internally. The quotas for the six direct disciples have not been determined yet. Thirty candidates were listed.”
"You won't recommend me, right?" Qin Ming looked at Yue Qing.
Yue Qing chuckled: "You guessed it right. My recommendation, coupled with your performance in defeating Mu Zixiu this time, made many elders seriously consider it. They decided to observe you for a while and temporarily designated you as the 31st candidates."
"Aren't you kidding?"
"I'm serious. You should fight for this spot, for your own sake and for the sake of the many people who care about you."
If Qin Ming only tied with Mu Zixiu, Yue Qing would not recommend him. After all, the eight sect tea parties are elites of each sect. It is said to be a competition, but in fact, there is a hidden murderous intention. If you are too weak, you will not only be laughed at, but your life will be in danger. . But Qin Ming proved himself in the martial arts field. Both his talent and combat ability are very outstanding. If he is given another three months, he may grow to the seventh heaven or even the eighth heaven. By then, Qin Ming will be the leader of the Eight Sects Tea Party. You can also have a fighting chance in the arena.
If Qin Ming can get a ranking, even if he only performs outstandingly at the tea party and attracts attention, his status in Qingyun Sect will be greatly improved in the future, and he will at least be able to get rid of his status as a servant.
The higher Qin Ming's status in Qingyun Sect, the faster it will take to rescue the people of Thunder Ancient City.
This is an opportunity, a really rare opportunity.
Qin Ming understood Yue Qing's intentions and felt warm in his heart: "Thank you."
"Thank you first, you are only the thirty-first candidate, and you are a candidate among the candidates."
"Does that mean I only have three months?"
"The quota will be officially determined in two and a half months, and the remaining half month will be concentrated on special training."
"Who is on the candidate list?"
Yue Qing took out a parchment scroll with beautiful small words on it: "Tieshanhe, Lingxue, Ding Dian, these direct disciples are all on the candidate list. This list will not be announced to the public, but Tieshanhe and the others know that they are candidates."
"Let me give it a try." Qin Ming Sheng Sheng Jue has understood the second stage, and his body's meridians have also undergone radical changes, not to mention that his three months can be used as nine months.
"I have convinced my master that he will help you try your best, but the key is to rely on yourself. Every contestant represents the image of Qingyun Sect and cannot be treated like a child's play." Yue Qing sincerely hopes that Qin Ming will pass, but she wants to Thinking about characters like Tieshanhe, Lingxue, and Ding Dian, the gap between Qin Ming and them is too far. Moreover, the Great Elder Faction will strongly oppose it, and Qin Ming will not be spared lightly during this period. Mobile phone users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
