On the Importance of Chinese Characters

There are still two days until the selection ends.

Suiyuan fell into unprecedented chaos, the alien beasts competed with each other for territory, fled in failure, and then went to snatch the other alien beasts.The breath of blood permeated the entire Sui Garden, stimulating the senses of all people and beasts.There were too many strange beasts, too many ants killed the elephants, and the high-level cultivators were no longer able to do their job with ease, so they had to hold back their breath and act carefully.

Accompanied by this chaos, high-level source materials and treasures of heaven and earth emerge in endlessly.Money touches people's hearts, and death quietly opens its embrace of nothingness over Suiyuan.

"Go!" Jiang Bei threw Yu Haixin out of the range of the beast fight, turned around and punched the ferocious Iron Leaf Lingtong Snake on the head, knocking the giant snake's head to one side, He shouted without looking back, "Take the team to defend Ancheng! I can get away only if you leave!"

Yu Haixin knew that the other party was telling the truth. Facing a third-level intermediate-level beast, she was completely hindered by the fact that she had not yet reached the realm of the small city master. She gritted her teeth and shouted: "Brother Jiang, I am waiting in Shou'an City." you!"

Power surged under his feet, Yu Haixin found the hiding place of the team without further delay, and led the team carefully to the flag raised high on the flat ground.

Tianan City, a camp that suddenly appeared three days ago.In just one day, it has been spread among all practitioners.

It is rumored that this city was built overnight by more than a dozen earth system cultivators to resist the invasion of alien beasts.The city wall is as high as 20 meters, and eight watchtowers are set up on the wall, so that people in the city can observe the outside situation and deal with crises at any time.And in the center of the city, a flagpole with a height of [-] meters was firmly inserted into the ground, and the huge black flag flew in the wind, becoming the most conspicuous symbol of this plain area.

Sui Garden was shrinking faster and faster, and high-level alien beasts appeared more and more frequently. Many teams suffered heavy casualties and had nowhere to hide.This huge black raised flag became the coordinates in the hearts of many cultivators, and the cultivators gradually gathered together.

Yu Haixin's team is also one of them.

The watchmen on the watchtower discovered their whereabouts early, and gestured towards the city wall from a distance. A wood-type origin magician also responded with a gesture when he saw this. It hangs down from the city wall, just in front of Haixin and the others.One of the vines curled up a stone of attention, and it swung around in front of everyone's eyes, reminding a few people to look.

Yu Haixin swept his spiritual thoughts and saw the contents inside at a glance. Several people followed the prompts and grabbed the vine. After grasping firmly, the vine led several people back to the city wall quickly under the control of the wood-type source artist.

After climbing up the wall, Yu Haixin stood on the top of the wall and looked into the city, and found that it was not so much a city, but a city wall.The whole city is actually a large open space enclosed without any houses.All the teams set up camp on the spot according to the prescribed places. At this time, various camps have already occupied half of the place.

"This fellow cultivator, have you read the Attention Stone just now?" Just as Yu Haixin was looking at it, a woman came over, saluted Yingying, and asked with a smile.

Yu Haixin and the others nodded. They just noticed that what Shi Zhong said was very clear. When entering Shou'an City, you have to abide by the rules. Private fighting is not allowed in the city. You need to pay the source crystal to enter the city. At that time, if you want to go out to hunt exotic animals and treasures of heaven and earth, you can also register to leave the city, but you have to pay [-]% of the income of the day as materials for maintaining the city.

"Not to mention paying the source crystal, [-]% is a bit too much." Someone in the team muttered softly, and the woman who led the way had very sharp ears, and this sentence was heard.

She stopped, frowned, and said coldly: "I don't think so much. How do you think this city wall was built?"

"Didn't you say that it was built by more than a dozen earth-type origin masters?" It is said by the outside world.

"Who can gather more than a dozen earth-type source tools in a short period of time?" The woman sneered, "It was built after Senior Brother Zhuang exhausted his efforts and printed ten earth-type source tools. They were all brought out by Senior Brother Zhuang and Senior Du's team. And these..." The woman pointed to the unremarkable floor tile under her feet, and everyone looked closely, only to find that the floor tile with slightly different eyes was actually an origin tool!

Yu Haixin could tell at a glance that this source tool was an eighth-level source tool, and it was only two levels away from the upper source tool!

"I don't need to say the value of the source tool? Sixteen are buried in the city wall, and there are eight more on the watchtower! The earth wall alone can block the collision of alien beasts, just dream!" The woman looked gentle, but she was actually a Due to the firecracker's nature, the city stopped the alien beasts that hunted her and her sister's lives, and saved their sisters' lives.Helping in the city these days is enough for her to understand who is the core figure in the city.

"Collecting the source crystal is not just for anyone. Don't you need source power to activate the source tool? This is all for the people on duty! Now Senior Brother Zhuang and another teacher are still rubbing the source tool non-stop, Letting you go out on missions and pay in source materials is also to save your own life. If anyone thinks there are too many, they will go out of the city and set up camp!"

After saying such a series of words, the person who disliked paying too much stuff blushed for a while, shut his mouth and lowered his head, and honestly refused to say more.

On the contrary, the little girl in Yu Haixin's team was very curious about the senior brother Zhuang and senior Du whom the woman was talking about, and asked in a low voice, the woman smiled and pointed to the two people talking on the city wall: "You guys are lucky, it just so happened that Senior Du went out to find When the source material of the rubbing came back, Senior Brother Zhuang went to the city wall to meet him. Did you see the two over there? The handsome one is Senior Brother Zhuang.”

Although Yu Haixin was still worried about Jiangbei, she couldn't help being curious and forgot to glance.Just after hearing what the woman said, she also admired the rubbing master who built the city and rubbed so many eight-level source tools in a short period of time.As a rubbing master, Yu Haixin knows how difficult it is to achieve this level. Anyway, she will have to practice for at least ten years to achieve this level.

Seeing this, her face suddenly changed.

Walking two steps forward, Yu Haixin grabbed the woman, and asked in a loud voice: "That is the rubbing. These source tools are Senior Brother Zhuang? Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?!"

The girl was confused by her, she broke away from Yu Haixin's pull, and her expression was a little bad: "That's Senior Brother Zhuang. How could I make a mistake?!"

"He really rubbed these source tools with his own hands? Didn't someone else give them?" Yu Haixin still didn't give up, staring at the woman and asking again.

The woman was taken aback by her questioning tone, and snorted coldly: "Of course it was Brother Zhuang's rubbing. Who would be okay with a dozen of the same source tools?"

These words are really reasonable, so reasonable that Yu Haixin can no longer find any excuses.There was a huge wave in her heart, and she kept asking herself: How could it be him?How could it be him? ! !

So, ignorance, incompetence, low qualifications...are all my wishful thinking?

how so……

It is extremely difficult for Hai Xin to accept this matter.Because once she accepted it, she would have to face the darkness in her heart and admit that she was an ugly woman.

Master Yangming did not accept wrong disciples.It was her unconvinced and unwillingness that pushed her to convict others when she saw some one-sidedness, thinking that she had grasped all the facts.Because only in this way, she can say to herself: Look, it's not because you are not good, it's because Master Yangming is blind.

But in the end, all of this is just a lie that I lied to myself, and it's all just that I can't afford to lose.

With a self-deprecating smile, Yu Haixin had mixed feelings in her heart, and then glanced at the back of the figure who hurried down the city wall, and said to the woman: "I am also a rubbing master, and I can also help with rubbing the source tools. "She wants to see this person with her own eyes, and see what kind of person Master Yangming has accepted as an apprentice.

Rubbing master? !The woman was taken aback. Remembering that her tone just now was not very good, she responded with a little embarrassment: "Um, that's really great. I'll take you to settle down first."

Yu Haixin nodded and followed her forward.Full of worries, she didn't notice that not only her face changed when she saw Zhuang Yunzhou, but also Wu Jiahan, who was taken in by the team.

How could he be a rubbing master? !Wu Jiahan kept asking himself in his heart.Dead, dead, really dead this time!Thinking of what he said about Haixin, Wu Jiahan never thought that these two people would meet together, if he was someone else, he would be able to justify it, but when he met this person alone, he would have no way to justify it.Cold sweat dripped from Wu Jiahan's forehead, if it wasn't for fear of attracting suspicion, he would turn around and run away now.

Burying his head down deeply, Wu Jiahan is almost terrified now.

Zhuang Yunzhou didn't know all this happened, he talked to Du Ruobai as they walked, "Did you find the Ningtian Stone?"

"It's a shame." Du Ruobai nodded, "Sure enough, you're right. There are more and more strange beasts outside. This time, I saw no less than ten strange beasts above the third level. If it wasn't for you It’s a little difficult to come back quietly.”

Zhuang Yunzhou's face was a little solemn: "I'm afraid that Suiyuan will shrink, and all the cultivators have taken a lot of treasures guarded by strange beasts. Before, the distance was far away, and the strange beasts did not leave the territory easily, so it seemed safe. But now It's hard to say, you have to know that many strange beasts hold grudges and have good noses."

"You mean, there is a fear that strange beasts will attack the city?" Du Ruobai also frowned.

"It's not fear, but there will definitely be alien beasts attacking the city." Zhuang Yunzhou relayed Fu Li's words to Du Ruobai, "Uncle Fu Li has the most research on alien beasts. The next time Suiyuan shrinks, it will be alien beasts attacking." Time. We need to stock up on more sources.”

"Okay, I'll ask someone to ask again, but there are still usable source materials." After these few days, Du Ruobai no longer doubted Zhuang Yunzhou's words.He thought of Zhuang Yunzhou who found him three days ago, and he was very glad that he had heard everything he had to say.

As a disciple of Baopu Palace in the main realm of the big city, the team established by Du Ruobai is naturally the most powerful one.That day, the team with the highest level of source power of tenth level came to the door and said that they wanted to cooperate, and he almost drove them away.If he hadn't heard that there was a rubbing master in the team, he wouldn't be interested in hearing what the other party had to say.

It was Zhuang Yunzhou who came to talk about cooperation. He only said three sentences: "First, Suiyuan is shrinking constantly, and strange beasts will riot. Second, this assessment is not only a test of human strength, but also of character and means. You If you have strength, if you refuse to save others, you may not pass the selection. Third, I will provide the source tools and build a city together, which can solve all the above problems."

Du Ruobai summed it up, although he felt that his words were a bit alarmist.But after thinking about it, they don't need to make a big effort on their own. If the other party is wrong, there is such a city, and they will have nothing to lose if they use it as a camp.So, with such a thought, Shou'an City was established.

But I didn't expect that the next thing would be hit by the other party one by one.Since taking in the first team that took refuge here, Zhuang Yunzhou proposed a series of reward and punishment measures for running a city. All the rights and obligations are available, and Du Ruobai admires the orderliness.

Zhuang Yunzhou who listened to his praise was secretly ashamed.In fact, there are many loopholes in these rules and regulations that can be exploited, but there are only a few days left before the end of the selection, and there is no time and no need to improve it. It is enough to be able to withstand these few days.Furthermore, if the rewards and punishments are too perfect, restricting the individual's nature, how can the peak masters and elders judge?

??

Time passed quickly. This day alone, there were three alien beasts chasing the cultivator and blocked by the city wall. Another wave of battles between alien beasts spread to the city wall, none of which were aimed at Shou'an City. The source tools showed their power at the same time, and the strange beasts lingered outside the city for a while, then left.

The moon is rising high, and by this time tomorrow, this selection will be completely over.

In the early morning of the second day, when the warm morning light shone on the city wall, the Sui Garden shrank again.This is the first time that the cultivators guarding the tower can clearly see that the space is shrinking.Things that were small, or not at all, in the field of vision popped into clearly visible positions almost instantly.

The drowsy cultivators stationed on the eight watchtowers were instantly startled by the scene they saw, and they rushed into the city one after another and gestured: "The alien beast is approaching!"
