Li Huan said coldly, "If you are a beautiful woman, you can stand beside me. Otherwise, leave me along."
The water vapor was cold in the dense fog, but it was nothing compared with the cold tone of Li Huan.
Mengying Lin and Wu Bin were stunned at that moment. Before they could react, Li Huan had pulled Mengying Lin forward.
"Well, what's so great about you? You let go of Mengying Lin. It is improper for men and women to touch each other's hand in passing objects." Wu Bin returned to his senses and followed them, but his attitude was not very good.
Because of Li Huan's words made the originally tense atmosphere more depressing. The three of them walked on all the way, but no one spoke.
All of a sudden, Li Huan pulled Mengying Lin back to the left, and Wu Bin couldn't respond to it and slid straight out. It turned out that there was a steep slope in front of them. They could only hear Wu Bin screamed and slid away.
"What should we do?" However, Mengying Lin would not sit back her teammates.
Li Huan was not in a hurry, holding her arm, and said in a cold voice, "Don't worry! The slope of this steep slope won't kill him. It's just a bit of pain."
He just finished speaking. Wu Bin's plaintive voice came up from below as expected. "What are you two waiting for? Come down quickly. There are dead men here!"
Mengying Lin and Li Huan took a look at each other, and then they helped each other to walk down the steep slope.
In such a place, they don't know how Li Huan could see the road ahead. Mengying Lin had doubts in her heart, but her face didn't show any.
When they got to the bottom of the steep slope, they saw Wu Bin sitting on the ground with his calves covered. When he saw they got there, his face was pale and pointed to the place beside him.
There were several corpses lying on his side. Those corpses seemed to have been attacked. Each corpse had terrible lacerations.
The three of them all were frightened. Some people who had laughed at Mengying Lin were among them. It seemed that one of them escaped successfully. The rest of them have died here. Even one who has the qualification of silversmith was among them.
"What hurt them?" Wu Bin moved to their sides in horror. "What's the matter with Tianji pavilion? Isn't it to recruit disciples? How can this happen? I haven't heard that someone died miserably because of the selection of disciples in the past few years!"
"It's true that Tianji Pavilion is not a famous and decent sect, but it has never done anything outrageous for so many years. The tragic death of these people seemed to have nothing to do with Tianji Pavilion." Li Huan also said in a deep voice.
Mengying Lin nodded. As a determined person, there was no reason for her to participate in such a dangerous screening. It seemed that the screening of disciples in Tianji Pavilion was much more complicated than expected.
"Shall we go on now?" Wu Bin was asking for everyone's opinions, but he won't give up going on.
Mengying Lin hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm going forward. As for you, I don't force you to come with me."
Li Huan frowned and said, "I'm going forward as well."
"You were all going forward, and I have to follow you. Otherwise, I may be killed by these things before I go out alone." Wu Bin said that he had stood up. His feet seemed to be hurt and he limped when he walked.
Mengying Lin wanted to reach for help originally, but after thinking about it, she took back her hand. He was not weak enough to need help. Why did she help him?
Without going out for a few steps, Li Huan seemed to think of something, took out a dagger from his arms and put it into Mengying Lin's hand, "Take self-defense."
"Well..."Mengying Lin was stunned, but did not refuse his kindness.
After walking for a while, they saw two people coming here from far away. They were in a hurry. They seemed to be looking for something. Because of the fog, they couldn't see the specific appearance of the two people, and they didn't know whether they were friends or enemies. So they hid behind a big tree carefully.
"Miss Lin! Miss Lin! "The two shouted as they walked.
Mengying Lin was stunned. She was the only woman who came to participate in the selection of disciples, and her surname was Lin. As soon as the two people spoke out, she knew that one of them was the man in black who presided over the selection of disciples.
She said, "I'm here."
The two men walked out of the fog. One of them was indeed a man in black. When he saw Mengying Lin, he took a sigh of relief. "I finally found you. If something happened to you here, the young cabinet leader must have killed me."
Wu Bin saw the big man in black, and looked suspiciously suddenly to Mengying Lin. "Wow, what's the relationship between you and the young cabinet leader?"
Is he your little lover?
Mengying Lin smiled awkwardly. Instead of answering, she asked the man in black, "What's going on in the forest?"
"To tell you the truth, there was no danger in the forest except for the complexity of the terrain, but today we don't know what happened. In the thick fog, there are frequent screams. Our people followed the voice to find several bodies, which is to know the seriousness of the matter. But we are still investigating what attacked them. I'm afraid of any accident, so I'll bring someone in to find you. Let's go. I'll take you out now."
The man in black explained the reason for the incident. It had nothing to do with Tianji Pavilion, as they had guessed before.
"Thank you." Mengying Lin blessed politely.
"That is all right. In the future, you will become a disciple of the inner door. I wish you could help us." The big man in black smiled innocently.
Mengying Lin was shocked. Suddenly, she heard some doorways from his words, "Inner disciples? Are the disciples of Tianji Pavilion divided into inner and outer gates?"
The big man walked forward warily and explained, "Of course, the inner disciples are qualified to make mechanism weapons. The outer disciples just help to do some chores. Today, only three disciples can become inner disciples, and the rest can only start from outer disciples."
Mengying Lin realized suddenly that the man in black should also be a disciple of the outer door, so he had a little more respect and politeness to the people in inner door.
Wu Bin heard the conversation and came to ask Mengying Lin angrily, "It seems that you have passed the discipleship screening."
Mengying Lin shook her head. "I also rely on my strength. I just passed the examination of the young cabinet leader in advance." She didn't lie about this. She was able to surpass Yunjie Tian in weapon making, and she already had the qualification of inner disciples.
