There are square stone bricks of the same size under the feet, surrounded by smoke-colored fog that confuses the sight, and the front is empty. I don’t know where this path paved with stone slabs will lead. The different colors on the stone bricks also make people care. The fear of the unknown makes people dare not take the first step easily.

Wu Jiu stared at the "road" under her feet. There was not only one stone road. Behind the three white square bricks, there was a black square as a node. The nodes separated into three paths of different colors to the front and the left and right sides respectively. The three paths extend towards their respective directions. After encountering a new black node, they fork again. Countless forks form a tree-like complex path that continues to spread outward. There are too many forks. There is no choice.

Wu Jiu looked at these brightly colored paths that seemed to have no rules, and he didn't know how to start, but it was obviously not a good idea to just wait here. After hesitating for a while, he finally made up his mind. In the first step, without any prompts, only moderate trial and error can gradually figure out the clues and master the rules.

Wu Jiu finally made up his mind, and just about to step onto the first stone slab, a hand grabbed him from behind, Rong Xiao naturally led him behind him, and said firmly to him: "Let me go first .”

Seeing that Wu Jiu opened his mouth to speak, he took the lead and said: "My soul power has reached the peak of the second order, and my body functions have been strengthened a lot. Whether it is reaction speed or defense power, it is much stronger than before. If there is danger in a while, I can first It's time to deal with it, so don't worry."

What he said were all facts, Wu Jiu couldn't refute, he looked up at him, finally nodded, and said solemnly: "Be careful for a while."

Rong Xiao nodded as a comfort, then turned around and stepped on the first stone slab calmly.

The first white stone slab remained unchanged, so Rong Xiao took a few steps forward until he reached the black node, he turned his head to look at Wu Jiu, and asked silently.

"Choose a random path first." Wu Jiu didn't have enough clues to give a clearer direction, so she had to leave it to luck.

And Rong Xiao's luck seems to be not very good, he chose the blue square in front of him, when he stepped on the square, the stone slabs around him disappeared like a phantom, leaving only the blue slate standing in the air There was a coquettish and strange blue light in the center, and the next moment, several black tentacles suddenly pierced through the mist below, encircling Rong Xiao who was on the blue stone slab!

Rong Xiao leaped upwards, avoiding this fatal entanglement, clenched his fists with both hands, and two groups of blue mist emerged from his palms, quickly turning into two sharp scimitars. The tentacles coiled around the blue square!

Pfft, after the sharp blade slashed across the tough tentacle like broken leather, there was a crisp sound, and the tentacle that had been cut into several sections fell on the blue brick, shaking back and forth uncontrollably, but No longer aggressive.

Without hesitation, Rong Xiao kicked the pile of broken muscle tissue into the mist. The mist under his feet seemed to hide a huge mouth of the abyss, devouring the pile of broken meat silently. The color of the bright blue slate faded and turned into ordinary white, and the strange danger on it seemed to dissipate, so a sudden attack disappeared.

The entire path that just disappeared reappeared, but this time, the other two paths connected by the first black node completely disappeared, leaving only the tree path maintained by the blue path still there.

With one choice, nearly a thousand forks in the two directions on the left and right disappeared. Moreover, it is still unknown whether the path chosen this time is correct and whether it can eventually lead to the end point. This kind of invisible pressure was on him, and he was in the safe zone, and he was charged with the responsibility of leading Rong Xiao all the way to the finish line!

Taking a deep breath, Wu Jiu walked along the path that Rong Xiao just walked, and stopped until she reached the blue square that had just turned into a whiteboard.

Wu Jiu's arrival did not cause any abnormalities. Presumably, as Rong Xiao, who was exploring the path, cleared the obstacles ahead, this short path has become a part of the safe zone.

Wu Jiu looked forward, and behind the discolored blue square was a bright yellow square and another blue square, followed by two consecutive white squares , and after that, it reached a new black fork node.

Wu Jiu touched his chin, as if he was thinking. Rong Xiao saw his hesitation, squatted down in front of him, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I can handle the attack just now."

Wu Jiu glanced at him, shook her head and said, "However, when you can avoid taking risks, you should try to avoid risks. When you take the next step, try to jump up and see if you can jump directly to the white land."

Rong Xiao nodded and then began to accumulate energy. With the improvement of the soul level, the surge of soul power greatly improved his physical fitness. At this moment, he jumped several meters high, and he seemed to be able to easily pass The two blocks below him jumped directly onto the white square, but this time, the behavior of jumping seems to have violated the boundaries of the rules.

As Rong Xiao leaped, two plots, one yellow and one blue, lit up respectively. On the blue plot, tentacles reappeared, more and denser, and their movements became more flexible and swift, which directly blocked Rong Xiao's forward leap. With the footsteps, Rong Xiao had to change his figure in mid-air and fight with his soul power. Behind him, a feather character appeared on the lit yellow slate. Wu Jiu looked over and found that it turned out to be a line with options. The general knowledge question asked about the common sense of the Yu clan. Professor Bai Yi's knowledge emerged in his mind, and Wu Jiu quickly chose the correct answer.

The correct choice turned the bright yellow slate into a safe white. On the other side, it took Rong Xiao a little longer than before to end the battle smoothly. As the blue slate also turned white, he turned his head. Looking at Wu Jiu from a distance, he felt a vague rule.

"This white color seems to represent safety." Rong Xiao pointed to the stone slab under his feet.

"That's right," Wu Jiu nodded and continued to add: "The blue test is for aggression and sensitivity, it should be a test for fighters like you, the yellow is for questions written in feather characters, it should be for the Yu clan White is not special and represents safety, while black represents path selection, what we need to do is to keep moving forward and reach the end point, it should be regarded as a pass.”

He pointed to the surrounding squares one by one, and made his own speculations. Finally, he looked at Rong Xiao, and asked in a deep voice: "I have wanted to ask since I was in the forest, is this trial field really for soul power?" Warrior?"

Rong Xiao was fascinated by Wu Jiu's analysis, but he was taken aback when he heard Wu Jiu's question, but Wu Jiu continued to share his own evidence: "You said this is a proving ground for soul warriors. There should only be soul power, but since entering this space, I can feel strong courage. If it is not limited by my talent, in the last forest, my courage should be able to grow with you , and this time it is even more obvious. According to what you said, the Yu character should be a kind of writing that is only handed down by the Yu tribe, and few other ethnic groups can understand it. However, the problem on the square just now is caused by Yu It is written in Chinese characters, so it is not an exaggeration to regard it as a special examination question for the Yu people. In my opinion, this place is more like a trial place jointly set up for the Yu people and other ethnic groups.

"How come, the Yu clan is precious, and the witches of various ministries would never allow the Yu clan to enter such a dangerous place. Besides, the Yu clan above the white feather has its own inheritance, and the elders teach it from a young age, and there is no need to take risks. , Besides, the courage outside the barrier is equally strong, even if you want to improve your courage, you don't need to enter such a dangerous place."

Rong Xiao had good reasons, and Wu Jiu was convinced. Looking back on all the things in Bai Yi's house, it seemed that it was indeed as Rong Xiao said.

"That's a bit strange." Wu Jiu rubbed her chin, feeling that there were more mysteries in this trial.

Rong Xiao didn't think as much as he did, and said directly: "No matter what, now we just need to reach the end point, and work hard in this direction now."

Wu Jiu nodded and stopped looking for trouble. He always felt that if they could pass all the trials smoothly, they should be able to find the answer in the end. "

So, they quickly went to the second black node and started the next round of path selection.

Because the road ahead is shrouded in fog, it is impossible to see the final direction of each fork. On each path, the three-colored slabs representing combat power, problems and safety are also distributed evenly. Wu Jiu, who has no way of judging, can only Randomly choose the way forward by luck.

As the road moved forward little by little, both Wu Jiu and Rong Xiao clearly felt that the difficulty of both the test of the battle and the setting of the topic began to gradually increase.

The black tentacles moved faster and stronger, and Rong Xiao couldn't easily cut them off with one blow. Wu Jiu's situation was even worse. Several people in Bai Yi's room Tiansucheng simply cannot cope with increasingly difficult problems.

When they crossed the fourth black node, Wu Jiu made a wrong choice for the first time. Before Wu Jiu could even react, the three bricks that marked the answer disappeared, and immediately afterward, the entire road ahead also disappeared.The surrounding fog became thicker and thicker, and disappeared with some bright smoky fog, replaced by ink-like darkness. Wu Jiu was still in a daze, and was immediately protected by Rong Xiao in his arms, who looked around cautiously, Waiting for the ensuing punishment, it has been a long time, the imaginary punishment did not appear,

The dim space blurred time, and Wu Jiu felt as if a century had passed. With a ray of light appearing in the sky, the darkness was finally dispelled, and the smoke-colored mist and the long-lost path finally reappeared, as if just a long time ago. Silence does not exist generally.

Wu Jiu looked up at the sky, and what lit up the sky was a huge number one. Looking at the slowly disappearing number, he seemed to realize something.

Faced with the problems brought by the grid, even if you fail, it does not mean death. However, you need to face the punishment of being imprisoned for a short time and restricting your actions. The core of this punishment is the waste of time.

time!Wu Jiu felt that he had vaguely groped for some important clue, and at this moment, he finally regained his composure.

Rong Xiao looked at Wu Jiu in a strange way, feeling that the other party seemed to have suddenly relaxed a lot. In the next few days, Wu Jiu chose mostly the path with yellow squares, and the questions began to become more and more difficult. , not only common sense, but also a variety of topics such as literature and history calculations, but this time, Wu Jiu is no longer afraid of making mistakes.

In the process of brushing the questions, Wu Jiu passively supplemented a lot of common sense, which is a more complex and complete subject system than that taught by Bai Yi. The knowledge learned in the previous life and the newly acquired knowledge formed two corresponding knowledge The tree, not only echoes each other, but also does not cross and make mistakes,

Wu Jiu felt relieved that he took this opportunity to conduct another systematic study of common knowledge about the Yu clan. After a hundred black nodes.

A bright door appeared in front of them, and the door that represented the exit suddenly appeared, making both Wu Jiu and Rong Xiao feel as if they had passed away.

Calculated carefully, they spent a full 28 days in this maze made of stone slabs!
