Chinese students at Hogwarts

Chapter 227 Tiger and Test (7K)

Zhang Xiao stood on the stone platform paved with bluestone slabs, looking up at the tall mountain gate in front of him.

If we say that when he was at the Ministry of Magic, Zhang Xiao saw what incredible buildings wizards could build with the blessing of magic.

Now he has seen how profound the long history can be.

The huge mountain gate can clearly show the vicissitudes of time, and there are still traces of cuts and axes on it. It seems that a fierce battle once broke out in front of the mountain gate.

There is a huge plaque hanging above the mountain gate, with the three characters "Tianshifu" written in seal script on it.

This plaque has a shining light all over it, giving it a majestic and majestic feeling.

"This is a new one. The old one seems to have been put away."

Zhang Chengdao saw his son's eyes lingering on the plaque, so he spoke and then explained.

"Come on, let's go up first. Mom has already packed your room for you."

The family climbed up the stairs and told some interesting stories. Zhang Xiao told her about life in school and the experiences along the way.

Especially what happened in Wangjiang County. Although people watched the whole process, they did almost nothing.

Li Qingshu listened with a smile and glanced at her husband from time to time, while Zhang Chengdao expressed his expression "indifferently".

In a small scene, it was not easy for his young master to take action.

My mother told the story of the Neville family's experience of sailing across the sea to China, and encountering a "ghost ship" during the voyage.

As soon as Mrs. Shaotianshi showed off a few very powerful 'talismans', the ghost ship hurriedly ran away.

It made her extremely regretful that she could not get on the boat to see what kind of ghost it was.

‘If it weren’t for Neville’s family, I would have gone up there! ’

She said sadly.

"Mom, are things going well with Neville's family? How are uncle and aunt doing?"

Li Qingshu touched Zhang Xiao's head and said with a little pride:

"I've already arrived at Longhu Mountain, can it still be cured? But it's really difficult. The time out of the body was too long. The old heavenly master stabilized the soul and added a few elders to assist.

Only then did they put their souls back. Because they needed to recover slowly on their own after returning to their original positions, they fell into a deep coma, and it took them nearly a month to recover before they woke up.

All that's left is to take care of your body. "

"Is that so? That's great. I'll go find him later!"

Zhang Xiao is also happy for Neville. In this case, Neville will definitely be able to shine more dazzlingly than in his previous life, right?

"However, your friend is no longer in Longhu Mountain. Your grandfather thinks that he has good talents and is particularly suitable for Wudang.

I contacted Master Zhou of Wudang and sent him to become a layman. However, I heard that Master Zhou seemed to like Na'vi very much and was interested in accepting him as a registered disciple. "

ah? Neville went to Wudang Mountain?

Isn't there something wrong with this style of painting?

Wudang Na'wei, pay homage to the Heavenly Master?

Zhang Xiao smacked his mouth, and Neville was afraid that he would fly into the sky!

The three of them continued talking and laughing as they walked up, when suddenly there was another loud cry.

A ray of green light flew down from the top of the mountain, fell on Zhang Xiao's shoulder, and rubbed Zhang Xiao's cheek affectionately.

But it was Qingluan who returned to Longhu Mountain one step earlier.

Zhang Chengdao immediately became energetic and stretched out a hand with a 'flattery smile' on his face:

"Senior Qingluan, I want Xiao Guoguo!"

Qingluan looked at him with her crystal eyes, and finally shook her head humanely, like an aunt who was asked for candy by a child, and took out a small red fruit from under her wings and put it in his hand.

Zhang Chengdao put it away happily.

At this moment, a strong wind rose from the ground, and the surrounding trees kept swaying, making a loud rustling sound.

Then there was another tiger roar that shook the forest.

I saw a huge black tiger running on the wind with four claws, running from a distance. This black tiger was so big that it could almost catch up with a van.

Before he even got close, the huge pressure made Zhang Xiao feel trembling.

Zhang Chengdao was as happy as a child, and waved his hand vigorously:

"Tiger!

Tiger! I'm back! "

The black tiger jumped up and stepped twice in the air with its four claws. The breeze seemed to be alive, carrying it lightly across a distance of tens of meters.

When the huge body landed on the ground, it was as silent as a cat.

Zhang Xiao never knew that a creature like a tiger could have such a gentle side. It gently nudged Zhang Chengdao's face with its nose.

As if with a smile.

Li Qingshu stretched out her hand to scratch the tiger's chin and said with a smile:

"The tiger came over when I came back. I told the tiger that you would come back after a while, and he was waiting here.

I have been waiting for you for more than a month. "

Zhang Chengdao paused, hugged the tiger's big head and rubbed it hard, pulled Zhang Xiao over in a show-off tone and said:

"Tiger, this is my child!

do you remember? We agreed that if Shumei and I have children in the future, we will play together! "

Like an old man who has gone through many vicissitudes of life, Tiger looked at Zhang Chengdao kindly and nodded gently.

Then, it stretched its big head over and sniffed Zhang Xiao's body vigorously.

Zhang Xiao stood up neatly and saluted the tiger:

"Senior Tiger, I am Zhang Xiao, hello, senior!"

Zhang Xiao only felt that his collar was suddenly lifted up, and he suddenly left the ground. A thick tail gently wrapped around his waist.

Before he could react.

He had already ridden on the tiger's neck. The satin-like fur was soft and it was extremely comfortable to sit on.

Li Qingshu jumped up and jumped up with a smile.

The same was true for Zhang Chengdao. After riding up, he touched the fur under his body nostalgically:

"Xiaoxiao, which position of yours was my favorite thing to do when I was a child, and your mother always competed with me for it."

Tiger looked back at Zhang Chengdao, as if waiting for something.

Zhang Chengdao's eyes were bright, and he didn't look like Shaotianshi at all. It was as if he had returned to a few decades ago, when he and Li Qingshu lived a carefree life in the mountains.

He knew what the tiger was waiting for, so he curled his fingers and made a loud whistle in his mouth.

Just like decades ago, he pointed forward and shouted:

"Come on, tiger!"

The tiger's mood suddenly cheered up. It shook its body and raised its head and let out a roar that was equally full of pleasure.

He opened his four paws and ran forward vigorously.

Zhang Xiao had never seen his father smile so cheerfully. It was a kind of comfort that came from the heart, just like a child without other things mixed in, just pure happiness.

Qingluan also spread his wings as he had accompanied Zhang Chengdao in the past, and accompanied the tiger, fluttering in the sky.

The tiger ran faster and faster, the clouds followed the dragon, the wind followed the tiger, and a strong wind accompanied the tiger, whistling past the foot of the mountain.

The tiger was obviously equally happy and roared from time to time.

Just like before.

Soon, the remaining half of the mountain road was completed by Tiger's leap. A group of people were already waiting in the square in front of Tianshi Mansion.

The family jumped off the tiger's back. Zhang Chengdao and Li Qingshu hugged the tiger's big head and rubbed it again:

"When Xiaoxiao is finished with the ceremony, Shumei and I will go and play with you. We will go to the back mountain to fight with the big black bear as before!"

The tiger nodded slightly, his ears twitched, and he turned around and left.

When it was completely out of sight, Zhang Xiao and his parents put down their waving arms.

It was only then that the people waiting in the square coughed twice.

"First senior brother, second senior brother, third senior brother, and fifth senior sister! Oh my, how can I be so embarrassed that I bother all the senior brothers and sisters to come and greet you."

Zhang Chengdao turned around in surprise and said.

Zhang Xiao raised his eyes and saw that these people were all different in height, short, fat, and thin, but they looked very familiar.

If you think about it carefully, isn't this the Longhushan Tiantuan who wore masks and held banners at Shafiq's mansion last time?

The eldest brother is a dull-looking Taoist. At this moment, he is a little happy: "Chengdao, just come back."

"Come, come, come, we haven't seen each other for decades. Last time there was a big event in the capital, and we didn't have time to have a drink and have a good time. This time we will definitely - OK! OK! Get together! Get together!"

The second senior brother is short, fat, and somewhat naive, but he speaks with a loud voice.

Especially "Haohaoju" seems to be squeezed out from between the teeth.

"Xiaoxiao, oh, show me to Senior Sister." Fifth Senior Sister is a tall, beautiful woman who looks to be in her forties, but it is said that her actual age is over eighty.

Fifth Senior Aunt stopped Xiaoxiao and walked towards the gate:

"Xiaoxiao, this is your first time back at Longhu Mountain. My aunt and uncle have prepared some gadgets for you. My aunt will show you around and give them to you together."

While saying this, he made a gesture behind his back.

A rich golden light suddenly rose from the bodies of those fellow disciples who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Thief Sun! I've tolerated you for a long time!"

"Hey! Split the Air Palm!"

"Suffer death! Zhang Chengdao!"

"I'll let you show off, I'll let you show off! I'll beat you to death!"

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but want to look back, but Fifth Senior Aunt held him tightly, quickened her pace and pulled him inside.

After Zhang Xiao came back with a bunch of gadgets, his father was lying in a quiet courtyard, calling out.

Li Qingshu suppressed her smile and applied medicine to him.

His originally handsome face was swollen like a pig's head, and you could hear his 'screaming' every time the powder was sprinkled on him.

"Madam, why did they only hit me? You obviously showed off too."

Zhang Chengdao looked at Li Qingshu with resentful eyes, feeling extremely aggrieved because the couple was obviously showing off together.

But several fellow apprentices just grabbed him and beat him.

Zhang Xiao put the gadget on the table aside and glanced sideways at his father, but he didn't feel embarrassed to say anything.

Mom, at most, it was just a post on Moments, but dad, you were just chatting privately!

Is this hatred so stubborn?

"Dad, is your injury okay? It looks quite serious."

"It's a small matter." Li Qingshu pulled Zhang Xiao over, pointed at Zhang Chengdao with the pig's head on his head and said:

"It looks serious, but it's actually just a skin injury. It mainly makes him swell. If it wasn't embarrassing, your dad would be able to go out and ride a tiger for a ride now."

Zhang Chengdao hummed twice, agreeing with Li Qingshu's statement.

"Mom, these were given by Fifth Senior Aunt. They said they were gifts given by several elders."

Li Qingshu looked at it: "Gold bricks are thrown out to hit people. Because they only have two functions: flying out and flying back, they are very strong and durable.

Streamers, Xiaoxiao, have you seen the portraits or statues of ancient gods? They often wear things like floating ribbons.

This is it. It goes through the armpit and can be carried for flying, but the speed is relatively slow and the steering is not so dexterous.

Hey, isn't this the Small Universe Circle? It can be large or small. It's similar to the Gold Brick, except that it can be placed on people and trap them. "

Li Qingshu was startled for a moment, then suddenly chuckled:

"They will turn you into a little Nezha."

Zhang Xiao thought about it, these gold bricks, the Small Universe Circle, and the ribbons are just the monkey version of Nezha.

Immediately he put the things away happily.

"Xiaoxiao, the day after tomorrow is the test, so don't put any pressure on me. After all, you are just qualified to walk down the mountain, and it is not a crucial thing.

Some people have been in the mountains for decades and still can't pass the exam, but that doesn't mean they're incompetent.

It’s just that everyone is good at different things. "

Hearing what his mother said, Zhang Xiao's pressure suddenly increased. Isn't this just like someone who has retaken the college entrance examination dozens of times and still can't go to college.

Finally, we came to the conclusion that this child is not suitable for school.

The pressure comes from the unknown. No matter what, I have been waiting for this for so long and must pass it no matter what.

'tick'

The sound of water drops rang in his ears, and Zhang Xiao opened his eyes suddenly, still holding the wand in his hand.

An invisible barrier was already in front of him, and his other hand had already held several yellow talismans.

Look around cautiously.

This is a cave, and the tip of a protruding stalactite is dripping water. It is the sound of this dripping water that wakes me up.

There is a small bonfire on the ground not far away. The fire has been extinguished, but dim sparks still remain.

There is a small bedding on the ground that I just turned over, and there is a wooden box in the distance, which seems to contain some sundries.

Where is this?

Zhang Xiao was a little confused. He carefully looked around and threw out a fire charm to light the fire again.

Am I not sleeping in the room? Is Longhu Mountain still unsafe?

Who has the guts to bring me here under the eyes of my parents and Heavenly Master?

Zhang Xiao cast a phantom spell on himself, and affixed a talisman to silence himself, and then he relaxed a little.

Start thinking about what happened.

I always feel that it is unrealistic to abduct me and put me here, and I think of my parents, who are always secretive about their education and assessment.

Except for the three inches of golden light and the ten kinds of talismans, they didn't tell me what the other tests were.

Is it because telling me will affect the test?

So where I am now should be part of the test. Is this an illusion? Or is it real?

Zhang Xiao felt the real touch and the heat of the flame, and then received a little dripping water from the stalactite.

The cold and sweet taste reminded him that everything here was real.

If it's a fantasy, it's too real.

At this moment, a faint voice suddenly came to his mind:

"March ago, there was a major disturbance caused by strange objects in Xiaoyang Village. A total of three walking disciples from Longhu Mountain went to investigate.

No news from either.

There is an urgent news about the Longhu Mountain walk. Zhang Xiao, a disciple of the Tianshi Mansion, goes to Xiaoyang Village to find out the truth and find out the whereabouts of my Longhu Mountain disciple.

If there is any strange thing causing trouble, kill it! "

Zhang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a test.

It’s just that I don’t know where this Xiaoyang Village is, and it actually caused three disciples to lose their voice.

Zhang Xiao muttered, maybe this is why my parents didn't tell me?

Are you afraid that if I know it, I will be prepared and not be able to achieve the test effect?

After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiao walked to the fire and began to check his salute.

The inside seemed to have been expanded. It looked like a wooden box the size of a schoolbag, but it was actually quite large. It had at least the space of two large suitcases.

In addition to some daily necessities such as clothes and bedding, Zhang Xiao also found many things used for ceremonies and rituals.

Such as incense and candles, in addition to the compasses commonly used by Taoist priests, wooden swords, Taoist robes, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, and even a pile of scattered silver coins and gold beans.

Hmm. This background should not be modern.

But where is Xiaoyang Village?

Zhang Xiao closed the wooden box and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

The night is getting dark outside, and it seems that it is late autumn here, and the wind in the mountains carries a unique autumn coolness.

He swirled around, looking for gaps in his clothes, and jumped in, taking away the heat from his body.

Zhang Xiao couldn't help but shiver and tightened his clothes with both hands.

I habitually want to take out my brass telescope and look at the stars to confirm my position.

But the place where the Universe Bag was supposed to be hung was empty, and Zhang Xiao realized that only one person and a wand had entered.

Magic wand?

I looked at the wand in my hand carefully. Although the appearance was exactly the same, it lacked the sense of flexibility of flesh and blood.

The corners of Zhang Xiao's mouth turned up, and he was sure, this must be an illusion!

Daomen definitely has the ability to change seasons on a small scale.

But looking from the mountainside, everything that comes into view is autumn scenery, which cannot be easily achieved by the power of the Taoist sect.

In other words, even if it can be done, it will not be used in a small trial of a disciple.

There is a common small village at the foot of the mountain, perhaps because it is close to mountains, forests and rivers.

The size of this village is not small, almost as big as a small town.

Is this Xiaoyang Village?

Zhang Xiao looked at it for a while.

Suddenly a gust of cold wind hit me, and my whole body felt a chill unconsciously.

This coolness is different from ordinary cold, more like it rises from the bones.

It was as if the whole person was plunged into the cold and biting well water.

Zhang Xiao looked around, and at some point, a light mist filled the valley.

Mist is mist again. When these monsters and monsters appear, is there nothing else but mist?

He raised his head and glanced at the moon, but at some point, the originally bright moon seemed to be covered with a layer of frosted glass, giving off a dim moonlight.

Zhang Xiao's brows slowly wrinkled. Although he didn't learn Taoism or Taoism, he read a lot of commonly used Taoism miscellaneous books.

Of course there are also records about Mao Yueliang.

For example, the "Ghost Sutra" says: "Wherever powerful evil things are, there must be visions.

The most common thing found is the hazy moon, which seems to be covered with rough edges.

The appearance of the Hairy Moon shows that the ghost's resentment has grown to the point where it is visible to the naked eye, so we must remember that if we encounter the Hairy Moon, we must not be careless. "

To put it simply, the moon has not changed. The reason why it looks like a hairy moon is because the resentment is too great, which is diffused over the area where the ghost is. It is through this resentment that the moon becomes a hairy moon.

But Leng Qianyu who was in Wangjiang before was already comparable to a fierce ghost who had been there for many years. Her resentment was so great that she could easily control the people in the entire square.

Force them to sit down and listen to themselves.

Even though he was so strong, he didn't even get the Hazy Moon.

In other words, this monster in Xiaoyang Village is much stronger than Leng Qianyu?

How did Xiaoyang Village survive until now?

Although Zhang Xiao was a little surprised, he was not too panicked. At this time, the importance of experience was shown.

He had a rough understanding of his own strength level. At least Leng Qianyu's level of tricks was extremely easy to win.

At this moment, Zhang Xiao felt a tingling sensation behind him, like an electric shock.

Golden light burst out from the body instantly, and the whole person rushed forward quickly.

When she turned around, she saw a 'woman' wearing a bright red wedding dress with her head lowered standing not far away.

She was wearing a pair of red embroidered shoes, her toes seemed to be touching the ground, and most of the soles of her feet were just hanging in the air.

The fingers painted with bright red Danko were stretched out straight and stuck to both sides of the body, with turbid liquid dripping down the long nails of the fingers.

Another female ghost?

"Little Taoist priest, don't mind your own business."

Although the female ghost in the wedding dress did not speak, a voice filled with warning and boundless hatred came from nowhere.

Don't mind your own business? I think so, but this is my assessment!

"Sorry, I came here on orders from my master to pursue you."

As soon as Zhang Xiao opened his mouth, the female ghost's resentment suddenly increased by three points, and she let out an unpleasant cry.

He raised his head, and saw that the ferocious face covered with lead powder was stained with blood and tears, and the completely black pupils were staring at Zhang Xiao.

Then disappeared.

The fog dissipated, and the moon in the sky once again gave off its bright light. It was obvious that the vicious female ghost had left.

Zhang Xiao stayed there in silence for a while, then returned to the cave, lay on the bed and began to think.

What exactly does this test test?

Early the next morning, Zhang Xiao packed up his things and set out towards the village at the foot of the mountain.

He was a Taoist priest after all, and he walked very quickly, and soon he arrived at the village.

Sure enough, it was almost the same as what I saw before on the mountainside.

This village is quite prosperous, and there is even an archway that cannot be seen in ordinary villages.

It was already early in the morning, and there were already many people walking back and forth on the road paved with bluestones.

There were merchants driving hawkers and farmers carrying hoes who seemed to be going out.

The breakfast shop was already open, and large streams of white steam came out of the steamer, carrying the alluring aroma of the meat buns, heading straight into the nose.

Paired with the shouts of the waiters, it has a strong market atmosphere.

Zhang Xiao swallowed, not knowing how the door was able to simulate the feeling of hunger so realistically in the illusion.

I couldn't help but opened my legs, walked to the shop and asked:

"Man, how do you sell this bun?"

"3 cents each, 10 cents for 4!"

Yo, it’s still standard Mandarin!

Zhang Xiao touched the scattered silver in his pocket and took out the smallest corner:

"Come four!"

The waiter took the piece of broken silver, weighed it skillfully, pinched it again, and quickly wrapped four hot meat buns in lotus leaves.

"Taoist Master, this dime counts you as 90 cents. Is it okay if I ask you for 80 cents?"

Zhang Xiao doesn't care, it's a test, why bother so much?

After taking the bun, Zhang Xiao was about to bite it when he saw a dirty little girl at the entrance of the alley twirling her fingers and staring longingly at the meat bun in her hand.

Zhang Xiao pondered for a while, then asked the waiter for a lotus leaf, wrapped two buns, and prepared to hand them to her.

Although this is just a test.

But not for anything else, just to feel comfortable.

Unexpectedly, the little girl took the bun and ran directly to the alley.

He also carefully motioned for Zhang Xiao to follow him.

Zhang Xiao was curious and walked into the alley while biting the bun.

But I heard the little girl say: "Little Taoist Priest, get out of here quickly, this is not a good place."

After saying that, the figure flashed to the side and disappeared.

The bun wrapped in lotus leaves also fell to the ground and shattered into powder, as if it had been dried for a long time.

Zhang Xiao suppressed the horror in his heart and was silent for a while, only to feel that the whole thing became more and more confusing.

The Taoist test. In addition to catching ghosts and slaying monsters, it also includes detectives?

What should I do next?

It is impossible to leave, the test is still here, and the strange thing in Xiaoyang Village seems to have been seen last night.

But there are still no clues about the three missing senior brothers.

Zhang Xiao thought about it silently, but suddenly remembered that when he was looking at the river, his father told him that in the past, the Taoist sect traveled all over the world.

"Look, hear, ask and know" is often used. When you first arrive at a place, you first find someone to find out about any weird news about the place.

These messages often hide the truth.

Zhang Xiao stood at the intersection and looked at it for a while, and soon settled on a store.

‘Izumo Teahouse’

It’s hard to imagine that a teahouse can still exist in such a place!

But in addition to teahouses, Zhang Xiao also saw wine shops, gambling houses, and even a ‘Yichun Tower’!

It’s outrageous. There is a Yichun Tower in a village? I'm afraid this isn't even available in weaker towns, right?

In short, this village has an abnormal prosperity.

Wine shops, teahouses, and spring buildings are all natural intelligence stations, and it is easiest to find information.

It's just that it's early in the morning, the wine shop hasn't opened yet, and the patrons of Chunlou are still resting.

However, the teahouse has already begun to fill up, perhaps with some leisurely and wealthy guests rushing to have morning tea and eating snacks to kill time.

I’ve decided, let’s go to the teahouse!

Zhang Xiao ate the meat buns in two bites, cleaned himself up with his wand, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the teahouse.

As soon as he entered, a neatly dressed waiter came up to him and attentively led Zhang Xiao to an elegant room with bead curtains.

After looking Zhang Xiao up and down calmly, he said with a smile on his face:

"This little Taoist priest, what kind of tea would you like to drink? There is a new tea here that has just arrived. Do you want to try it?"

Zhang Xiao was quite curious about this novel experience. It was an illusion anyway, so he nodded in agreement:

"Make me a pot of good tea."

As soon as the waiter got a dozen towels, he agreed with a smile and shouted: "A distinguished guest, a nice pot of tea!

Make tea——! "

After a while, the waiter held the tea tray and showed Zhang Xiao a tea art skill.

Under the watchful eye of the waiter, Zhang Xiao finished his first sip of tea and had not tasted it yet.

He just felt that the world was spinning in front of his eyes, and then his eyes went black.

The faint male voice sounded again:

"you are dead."

? ? ?

Am I going to die now? ? ?
