Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Ling Chengzi did not immediately explain why he had brought them here. Instead, he took out a small wooden box from his pocket.
The wooden box emitted a faint fragrance. When he opened it, he saw a silver bracelet with a ring of red beads inlaid on it. The fragrance was emitted from these beads.
"This nine-hole exquisite bracelet was given to me by your master, Daoist Ningshui. There are a total of nine pills on it, all of which were personally refined by your master. The colors of the pills are lighter and darker, and the effects of the pills are stronger and stronger. Although they can't bring the dead back to life, whether it's to relieve hangovers, cure poison, replenish true energy during combat, or to make female disciples look better, there's absolutely no medicine in this world that is more useful than these.”Ling Chengzi showed the bracelet in front of everyone." I'll give the nine-hole exquisite bracelet to the disciple whose results satisfy me the most today.”
Everyone was in an uproar. They looked at the bracelet with eager eyes.
As long as his results today were good enough, not only would he be able to leave a good impression in his master's heart, but he would also be able to obtain a bracelet that could heal injuries. Moreover, he would be able to establish a certain degree of prestige among so many new disciples. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
Seeing the enthusiasm in his disciple's eyes, Ling Chengzi smiled faintly.""I haven't even told you what the test is today, and you're already so confident?”
Hearing Ling Chengzi's words, everyone felt as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water over their heads, and they immediately calmed down.
Their master was particularly strict. From the beginning, everyone could feel that it was inconvenient to walk with the wrist guard that weighed dozens of pounds. They wondered what kind of unexpected training would be held today.
Liang Xi narrowed her eyes at the bracelet, guessing the quality of the nine-hole exquisite bracelet from its color.
"With such an exquisite design, it can probably be sold for a few hundred taels of silver. If the quality is better, it won't be a problem to sell for a thousand taels.”The little abacus in Officer Liang's heart cracked.
Feeling someone tugging at her sleeves, Liang Xi turned her head and saw Lin Xian `er staring at her.
"Liang Xi, what do you think of the bracelet?”When Lin Xian `er and Liang Xi were talking, her face was flushed red, appearing extremely adorable.
"That's not a good thing. I don't think it can be sold for much money. The old fellow wants to give us something he doesn't want as a favor.”Liang Xi smacked her lips and whispered. Why was this chick asking her this question? No matter what, she had to put the blame on him first.
"Not good stuff?" Lin Xian `er's mouth was agape as she stared at Liang Xi like she was looking at a monster. She hurriedly pulled him to a corner and said," Liang Xi, you must not underestimate this bangle. The pills on it are peerless. Daoist Priest Clear Cloud's reputation for concocting pills is very famous throughout the entire continent. Earlier, I saw that you didn't think much of it and was afraid that you didn't know the importance of this bangle and didn't test it seriously. Remember, if you have the chance to obtain this bangle, you must never let go.”
Evidently, Lin Xian `er had never spoken so much to a male before. After she finished speaking, her face turned red and she didn't dare to look at Liang Xi anymore.
Liang Xi's heart warmed when she heard that. So the little girl was concerned about her.
Seeing how Lin Xian `er's ears were all red, Liang Xi couldn't bear to tease her and nodded solemnly,"I understand."
As the two of them were talking in low voices, Ling Chengzi had already finished the content of today's test.
This wooden house was completely enclosed, and the further they went in, the dimmer the light became.
There were more than 1,000 bamboo poles stuck into the walls of the wooden house. The top of the bamboo poles was wrapped in a cloth soaked in lime. The movement of the bamboo poles was all operated by a mechanism.
The disciples who entered were all wearing the same black clothes. The wooden house was 35 meters long. From the entrance, the person with the least white spots on his body would receive the nine-hole exquisite bracelet when he came out.
Feeling that today's test was not very difficult, everyone's enthusiasm was once again aroused.
Ling Chengzi looked at his disciples with a smile in his eyes. He thought to himself," You all think that there are only bamboo poles installed on the two sides of the walls in the wooden house. In fact, you're all wrong. Not only the walls, but the ceiling, the floor, and even the corners are filled with bamboo poles."
Today's test was to test one's eyesight and reaction in the dark. Everyone was very confident in themselves.
Liang Xi and the others changed into black clothes and waited in line outside the wooden house.
Seeing Lin Xian `er making a gesture of encouragement, Liang Xi smiled and made a face at her.
As expected, the adorable Lin Xian `er's cheeks fluttered as she hurriedly lowered her head.
When they were queuing, two tall and muscular disciples squeezed to Liang Xi's side. Liang Xi remembered their names. One was Gao Yuan, and the other was Han Yin.
The two of them were tall and big, which was a different style from Liang Xi's well-proportioned figure. Liang Xi was sandwiched between them, and she looked a size smaller.
The disciples entered the wooden house in batches. Three people entered each time. Liang Xi counted and realized that she, Gao Yuan, and Han Yin were in the same batch.
After Ling Chengzi activated the mechanism, a slight thumping sound came from the wooden house. After the sound of the operation calmed down, Ling Chengzi made a gesture, indicating that the first batch of disciples should enter first. He also raised the nine-hole exquisite bracelet and waved it as an encouragement.
Seeing the first three disciples enter, the remaining people were both nervous and expectant.
At first, the husband was not surprised. Occasionally, there would be a dull sound or two from the wooden house, but there was nothing else surprising.
Just as everyone was wondering if this test was too simple, the sound in the wooden house suddenly became faster, and people's shouts could be heard from time to time.
"Ah!"
"Oh!"
"Yes!"
"Oh my god!"
The screams became more and more intense, causing the people outside to look at each other, their scalps tingling.
Only then did everyone remember that they were cultivating on the Heavenly Spirit Mountain. The cultivation programs they participated in were not something that could be imagined with normal thinking.
Not long after, the first batch of disciples who entered walked out. Their appearance was shocking. Compared to the confidence they had when they entered earlier, it was simply heaven and earth.
The three of them were covered in white spots, and their faces were covered in lime. White powder fell from their hair with every step they took.
Moreover, all three of them had some injuries on their bodies. The most obvious ones were their faces that were not protected at all. Some of them had swollen mouths, while others had green eyebrows.
Seeing the three disciples who entered first dejectedly go to Ling Chengzi's side to record their points, the rest of the disciples could not help but shrink back.
The disciples who entered next were not much different. They were all clean and fresh when they entered, but when they came out, they were covered in white spots and dust.
The only one who received Ling Chengzi's praise was Lin Xian `er. However, she had also been poked by the bamboo pole over ten times, and her hair was also stained with a lot of powder. When she spoke, she choked and coughed.
"Liang Xi, be careful. It's very dark inside.”Seeing that Liang Xi was about to enter, Lin Xian `er cleaned herself up before walking over.
She didn't know why she had to remind Liang Xi. They hadn't known each other for long, but she couldn't help but care about him.
"Yes, I will protect myself from getting hurt for you.”Liang Xi giggled and teased her.
As expected, Lin Xian `er stomped her feet and ran back,"Who, who wants you to do it for me?"
Staring at Lin Xian `er's curvaceous figure, Liang Xi giggled,"This little girl is still too thin-skinned. She needs more practice. Next time, find a place with no one to teach her the truth of being a human.”
His mind was filled with dirty thoughts when Liang Xi realized that it was his group's turn to enter.
Ling Chengzi's eyes indicated that his wrist guard was too heavy.
Liang Xi shook her head slightly and smiled at Ling Chengzi. She felt that this master was not bad.
The door of the wooden house creaked open. Liang Xi stood between Gao Yuan and Han Yin, and the three of them walked in steadily.
