The teacher and apprentice are on the rise!

When Xue Yu woke up, he found himself nestled in Cen Shu's arms, and when he opened his eyes, he saw his master's delicate and pale chin.

He is now a fluffy little ball, which can barely fill the palm of his hand when he is pinched by the same pale fingers of the man, and is trapped in the layers of robes, not eye-catching at all.

"wake up?"

The voice above his head was clear, but not indifferent at all.

Xue Yu fell into a drowsy sleep and subconsciously let out a "mi".

Cen Shu's palms sank, and he looked down, only to see his little Snow Leopard turned over and lying on his back, showing his snow-white belly undefended.

The little thing didn't even open his eyes, as if he still wanted to sleep.

When he flipped over like this, a fluffy tail longer than his body stretched out from under his belly, and rested softly on the young man's knee.

The tail with black circles on the white background is long and fluffy. Because it was held under the weight all night, it is now sticking out in all directions in a mess. When I glanced at it, I thought someone's feather duster had become fine.

Cen Shu bent his eyes slightly, raised his other hand, and silently smoothed his sleepy tail.

The leopard-shaped self here can still sleep, but the avatar far below the mountain does not have such a comfortable thigh to nestle in.

Xue Yu in human form had no choice but to sit up from a tree branch that was frozen hard, and leaned sleepily against the tree trunk to wake up by himself.

After Xue Yu's incarnation outside the body is cultivated, it is like controlling two hands with one head, there is no distinction between primary and secondary, at most it can distinguish left and right handedness.

It's just that Xue Yu is not good at learning, and the signal is not very good if the avatar is far away from the original body.

For example, his two bodies are a little far away at this time, so his head is dizzy, and his reactions are a little slow.

In fact, except for those big guys with advanced cultivation bases, no one wants to cultivate an incarnation when they are full.

However, Xue Yu is not a human being now, but a leopard, a cub of a snow leopard.

Yes, although he is small, and his voice is "Miwu Miwu" without any viciousness, but he is indeed a leopard.

When Xue Yu first crossed over, he looked at himself in the mirror: snowflake hair, long tail, round ears, because he was still a cub, his face also looked like a cat.

If being cute can kill people, it would be extremely lethal.

The snow leopard cub is a small ball, about the size of an adult's palm. Although the human-shaped trumpet he transformed into is not a little boy, it is not much better. It is a boy who looks only twelve or thirteen years old. .

At this time, the young man was sitting on the branch of a tall tree in the dense forest at the foot of the mountain with his shoulders drooped.

A black fur coat was tightly wrapped around the body, with a light brown long fur trim around the neckline, which set off a small face the size of a palm.

His avatar has snow-skinned red lips, and his long hair is loosely combed into a bun behind his head. It is so black that it looks like ink has been splashed on it. His skin is whiter and his long hair is black, just like his beast. They were both of the same type, and they were all very beautiful.

And because of his young age, his face was somewhat indistinguishable, making it even more eye-catching.

It's just a two-finger-wide strip of black cloth across his eyes, which divides this handsome face into two halves, and wraps around the back of his head to form a knot.

This blindfold is made of several layers of black gauze stacked together, and it is still lighted up, and it can be seen that the eyes of the person behind the cloth are open.

I don't know if the eyes are sensitive to light or what, so I have to cover my eyes with a cloth.

Even though such a covering makes it impossible for people to see such a beautiful young man with beautiful browbones, bridge of nose, and lips, and what kind of eyes he would have, but at the age of twelve or thirteen, he has not yet opened his eyes. His body was thin and thin, and standing there with his eyes covered with black veils, he felt somewhat ambiguous and fragile.

Teach people to have some secret and unspeakable thoughts - want to protect him well, or... bully him well.

Xue Yu's two body signals were not very good, and he was not able to concentrate on controlling the two sides at this time, so he could only let Baobao sleep in Cen Shu's arms, and concentrate on controlling his humanoid trumpet.

Sleepy had almost woken up, Xue Yu habitually raised his hand, pulled a strand of hair from the top of his head, lifted it up to the front of the black veil, and looked at it carefully.

This hair is black and strong, and looks quite good quality, it seems to be twice as thick as ordinary human hair.

Xue Yu looked from the middle of the hair inch by inch to the root of the hair, the thick ink-like black faded a bit, and the area closest to the scalp was three to four millimeters completely white!

Ugh!

Xue Yu sighed and threw his hair away.If Yanzong's entrance exam is not over this day, his dyed head will not be able to hold on!

It might sound a bit embarrassing to be living overnight because you failed an exam.

But there is no way, it is really because his humanoid avatar is not completely transformed, the hair on his body is the same as the snow leopard's fur, it is all white.

Eyebrows and eyelashes grow slowly, and can last for a while after dyeing, but the hair can't be helped, and white hair grows out in less than a week.

Before he could finish his sigh, he suddenly trembled all over.

A few slightly cold fingers touched him—no, Leopard's belly.

The fingertips hooked lightly, scratching from Xue Yu's belly with long white fluff all the way to his chin.

!

Xue Yu's mind went blank, and he was completely unable to reject the kitten's animal instincts, and his hair was blown up like an electric shock from being scratched.

The trumpet avatar's eyes went dark, and he fell from the tree branch in mid-air as if the electricity had been cut off.

With a sound of "cha", he fell headfirst into the snow under the tree.

The snow under the tree was nearly a foot thick, and the avatar was short. When he planted it like this, he buried his entire upper body in it. Only his legs in thick trousers were exposed outside the snow, like two trembling radish seedlings. .

The cold snow poured into his neck, which really boosted Xue Yu's spirits.

The human figure grinned and sat up from the snow, and the leopard over there had already broken out in Cen Shu's hands.

While biting the young man's light white fingertips with his deciduous teeth the size of rice grains, he clasped Cen Shu's hand with his four paws and screamed "Mimi" angrily, and his big tail slapped on his white and thin wrist .

However, no matter how Xue Yu felt that he was a fierce tiger descending the mountain and was extremely powerful, Cen Shu was not bitten by him.

He scratched the cub's neck a few more times as if itchy, and said, "Do you still want to eat copper pot today?"

Hearing this, Xue Yu's big tail, which was wagging vigorously, stopped, and he gave a confident "meow" with that finger in his mouth.

Nonsense, of course you want to eat!

Unlike the coldness in the whole house where there were only Cen Shu, Xue Yu and a leopard, the other mountain of Tianyanzong was bustling.

The huge back-shaped veranda in front of the main hall was full of people.

In the corridor, there should be a small garden scene, a rockery and strange rocks, but now there is a huge... copper pot.

No.

To say it is a pot is actually a bit euphemistic.

Because this pot is really too big, it was erected directly on the ground, and the pot surface was as wide as the corridor, which filled the entire courtyard.

The chimney for the charcoal fire in the middle is as thick as seven or eight people hugging each other, and it discharges smoke into the sky non-stop. The noodle soup is surrounded by it, which is as wide as a stream, and it can be easily boiled by a person.

The milky white soup base was gurgling in the pot, and there were still scallions, ginger slices, shiitake mushrooms, wolfberries and dried shrimps floating on the soup surface.

The snow was falling heavily, and each snowflake was the size of a goose feather, but it was melted by the warm air above the veranda, pattering like light rain.

The snow in the snow mountain is not dirty, it falls into the pot and directly serves as the soup base.

Even in the entire world of comprehension, the only one who can eat a hot pot meal like this is the Tianyan Sect, which is cold in the sky and sparsely populated.

When Xue Yuwo came to the scene in Cen Shu's arms, this was the scene he saw from a distance in mid-air.

The thick water vapor enveloped the whole mountain in a cloud of milky white mist, and the steam was so cloudy and misty.

Five feet away, there is no distinction between humans and animals.

Cen Shu stopped in mid-air, flicked his wide sleeves lightly, and the mist in front of him dispersed to both sides like Moses divided the sea.

A dozen feet below their feet was the bubbling noodle soup. If they didn't blow the mist away and descend directly, the two of them would probably fall straight into the pot, adding another dish to today's hot pot.

"Grand Master Uncle is here! Grand Master Uncle is here!"

The juniors of the Tianyan Sect in the corridor started to commotion, those who held bowls held bowls, those who wiped the tables wiped the tables, and quickly made room for Cen Shu to come out.

The Tianyan Sect usually does not stick to any priority or inferiority. The corridors are square, and the furnishings are the same. It is the same wherever they sit.

The elders in charge are also very down-to-earth, just now when the water vapor was blown away, Xue Yu saw with sharp eyes a few old men with white beards sitting scattered in the corridor below, all of them were hissing from eating.

Cen Shu sat down calmly, and a young disciple immediately brought him clean dishes and chopsticks.

"Uncle Grand Master came just in time, the mutton has just been put into the pot, and now it is the most tender time to pick it up!"

Cen Shu's originally sickly and pale cheeks were flushed by the heat of the steam, and in the steaming mist, they appeared a little rosy, with a strange sense of beauty.

He nodded slightly to the little disciple as a thank you.

The other party smiled honestly at Cen Shu, and went to find another place to sit with his bowl in his arms.

The rim of this huge pot is sticking to the railing of the veranda, so it is very convenient to extend the chopsticks.

Cen Shu scooped up a few slices of mutton and put them in a small jade bowl. Xue Yu poked half of his body out from his master's lapel and opened his mouth wide for Cen Shu to feed him the meat.

This must be a monk, Xue Yu pouted and thought, using such a big pot to eat hot pot, he could still get what he put into the pot.

Compared with the situation where the disciples next to him sat in rows holding bowls and chatting in full swing, the surrounding area of ​​Cen Shu was much deserted, with four or five empty seats on the left and right.

Xue Yu shook his ears while eating the boiled mutton fed by Cen Shu, and heard a few young disciples not far away holding bowls and muttering together.

"Why is Grand Martial Uncle here again today? The previous dinners - I mean when our Tianyan Sect opened the mountain to accept disciples, Grand Martial Uncle never came to see it?"

"Yes, yes, Grand Master Uncle has been here for four or five days in a row. Could it be that the old man finally lived alone, and this changed his mind to accept disciples?"

"Grand Master Uncle hasn't given us a Martial Uncle for hundreds of years, right?"

"Didn't you say that? Uncle Grand Master, the Red Luan star has moved!"

Xue Yu: "..."

Damn, people from this sect probably have some problems with their brains.

He secretly raised his eyes to look at the person above his head.

The other party seemed to be unaware of the surrounding discussions, his long and curled eyelashes did not tremble, his indifferent eyes fell on the soup surface in the distance, and his subordinates steadily fished the mutton for Xue Yu from the pot.

Xue Yu turned his head and continued to wait for his meat.

He really wanted to tell the group of Xiao Que that they were thinking too much. The reason why Cen Shu came here was purely because Xue Yu wanted to come.

Tian Yanzong accepts apprentices once a year, and every time he accepts apprentices, more than 100 people from Hezong will gather together to eat this open-air hot pot.

Xue Yu is greedy for this hot pot meal.

Plus--

On the smoky copper pot, there are a dozen round looking mirrors floating in the air at this time.

The scenes in each remote viewing mirror are different, showing the real-time images of each disciple who wants to worship in the mountain gate. A dozen mirrors show that there are more than a dozen untrained disciples who want to become a teacher this year.

Karma has been added to the mirror, and it does not fog up at all when steamed in the water vapor of the copper pot.

Of course, everyone in the Tianyan Sect gathered here not just to eat hot pot, but also to watch the performance of future juniors and younger sisters in the exam from the remote viewing mirror.

Xue Yu shook his ears again, and vaguely heard someone discussing the exam.

"Senior sister, I was forced to practice in the room by the master a few days ago, and I just came to see the test of the juniors and sisters today. Where did it go? I think they are just walking? What are they testing?"

Xue Yu tilted his head and listened carefully.

"Oh, my junior sister is a disciple accepted by my uncle during his travels. I don't know if I haven't passed the entrance examination. Our Tianyan Sect has the same content of the entrance examination every year. We go through the dense forest to the foot of the mountain, and climb ten thousand steps of jade. On the top of Yunan Peak, if you finally pass the examination of the Questioning Heart Stone, you will be considered qualified."

"But the dense forest at the foot of the mountain is not very big. If you walk straight towards Yunan Peak, you should walk through the forest to the foot of the mountain after walking for two days and two nights. Why are there still half of the people in the mirror in the past five days?" Wandering in the woods?"

"Haha, although walking through the dense forest sounds simple, it is not just a test of the patience of the disciples. As soon as the disciples enter the forest, they will be given karma. They will not meet each other or anyone else, but they will meet occasionally. In the case of predation by ferocious beasts, or animals falling into hunters' traps, if they see their pity and rescue them, every time they save them, they will have to walk twenty miles more on the way to Yunan Peak."

From behind the mist came a junior sister's soft cry, with a somewhat unbearable tone: "Ah, if you want to reach the foot of Yunan Peak quickly, don't you need a cold heart and a willingness to die?"

The senior sister said solemnly: "As the saying goes, 'the great way is fifty, the sky is fourty-nine, and the human escapes one." There are laws in the operation and development of everything. Tigers eat rabbits, and birds eat grass seeds for survival. My Tianyan sect is Grasp the number of forty-nine, calculate the secrets of heaven, and do things in accordance with the destiny, how can you go against the sky? "

The junior sister was ignorant and wanted to say something, but suddenly felt her knees sink.

She looked down, only to see a palm-sized snow-white dumpling pounced on her lap.

"Ah, why are there still cats here!"

Xue Yu: "..." All right.He endured it for eavesdropping.

A few young disciples hugged Xue Yu for a while, and fed him a lot of hot pot meat, and then continued to talk about the topic just now.

Sitting on the little girl's lap, listening to them speak more clearly.

A senior brother who was eating with a bowl next to him poked his head: "Senior sister, this is just the first level. It is true that you can pass through the dense forest faster if you don't want to be saved, but when you climb the white jade steps in the second level, those who were not rescued before All the creatures will turn into demons and make the people on the level fall into the illusion of demons. The more you save, the fewer demons you will have. "

The little junior sister licked the cat in a daze: "I don't quite understand...why the two ways to test the disciples need to do completely opposite things?"

The senior sister who explained the first checkpoint smiled slightly: "If I have foreseen the development of things, then no matter whether I intervene or not, I have already made a choice. Since I have made a choice, I have to bear the corresponding consequences. In fact, the rescue in the jungle There is no right or wrong answer for not saving those animals, as long as our heart is strong enough, we will not be lost, we will not regret it, and we will move forward bravely."

Seeing that the little junior sister seemed to be a little dazed, someone from the side said: "For example, one day you counted a catastrophe in a certain village, and a wave of bandits would break into the village and slaughter the whole village. Would you Will you save them?"

Junior Sister did not hesitate: "Yes!"

"But if you count among the people who may die in the village, there is a child who will become the evil leader of the party in ten years. If you don't kill him, he will kill tens of thousands of people in the future, then you still don't know. Will it be saved?"

"This……"

Xue Yu grabbed the girl's hand, and continued to stick out his tongue to roll hot meat from her chopsticks to eat.

He thought, what this person was talking about was actually a variant of the trolley problem, whether to save one person or save the world, whether to watch or make a change.

This issue is still controversial even in modern society, let alone embarrassing a little girl.

Even his cheap master Cen Shu...

He raised his head and looked behind a cloud of steaming water in the distance.

Isn't it because he is nosy, he has been raised for hundreds of years and still looks sickly.

The junior sister was caught by Xue Yu's fluffy claws and regained her senses.

"I... I will save it, right?" She stroked two handfuls of Xue Yu's soft hair, and said uncertainly, "After saving him, let him worship in our Tianyan Sect. Brothers and sisters are so kind." , how could he not grow into such a monster?"

The people around laughed, and the senior sister praised: "Although my sect says that it is to catch the number of four or nine, we must always look for the ray of heaven that is escaped by others. Man will conquer heaven, that's what it says."

The confusion in the junior sister's eyes faded a little: "I seem to understand."

Everyone was about to talk again when suddenly someone came over and patted the little junior sister on the shoulder: "Uncle Grand Master let you go over."

There was an uproar all around.

The little junior sister was at a loss and said: "Ah! Tai Shishu, Tai Shishu, why did you ask me to go there?"

The disciple who came to deliver the message shook his head: "I don't know either."

The junior sister hurriedly put Xue Yu into the arms of the person next to her: "Senior sister help me take care of the cat, I'll go and have a look."

With such an interruption, the juniors stopped discussing the exam, and all guessed why Cen Shu called people to come over.

When the exam started earlier, he had already eavesdropped on the exam content in Cen Shu's arms, and he knew how to work the first and second rounds.

Manipulating the humanoid trumpet all the way in the dense forest should fight tigers and tigers, and save rabbits to pave the way for the second level, so now I am still looking at the mountains and running dead horses in the dense forest.

Xue Yu wanted to secretly listen to what the last questioning heart stone was today, but was interrupted by Cen Shu.

In just a few minutes, the little junior sister who had just passed by came back again.

She patted her senior sister on the shoulder with a strange expression: "Uncle Grand Master also told you to come over."

Senior sister froze when she fed mutton to Xue Yu in her arms.
