Chapter 637: President of the Talisman Guild
The doors and windows were closed, and the air seemed to be mixed with a thin layer of dust, which made people feel dreary.
The sumptuous marble top is cut out of the two distinct ends. On the opposite side is the judge, his eyes are as sharp as a knife, and he invisibly reveals a kind of "three-hall trial" posture.
Under the forced gaze of the elders, Ye Shuo sat up straight suddenly, and there was a kind of humiliating anger on his face: "Even the elders of the Fu Master Guild can't slander others like this without evidence! The junior dares to say that passing the assessment is completely based on my own ability!"
The first elder on the right sneered: "Really?" took the file bag handed by the other person, rummaged through it, and pushed several documents forward, "This is the transcript of your first eight assessments, all of which are hovering on the verge of passing. But your spirit rune master assessment, the chairman has seen it himself, and he is also amazed, and even called it a masterpiece. ”
He lifted his glasses, and the smooth lenses were transparent in the sun: "A person who is barely able to even assess the talisman master, why would he suddenly have such an outstanding performance when he was taking the spirit talisman master? It's like a person who can only tie the Qi Gathering Level, saying that he can win the Tongtian Realm, who would believe it?"
Ye Shuo rested his hands on his knees, his ten fingers crossed repeatedly, and his face was still pure: "It's just a tie, it's not a failure, isn't it?" Because the younger generation is pragmatic, and the assessment only seeks to pass, not to get a high score. In the first eight games, in order to preserve my mental power, I mixed it up casually. When it comes to the assessment of the spirit rune master, it is the real all-out fight. ”
This kind of answer, which was obviously "tricky", caused the elders to look at each other for a while. Finally, one of the elders sitting on the outermost side coughed dryly, took out another file bag, and took out a spirit rune, a blank piece of paper.
"If you want to say that, here is the spirit rune you assessed at that time, but what you handed in at the same time was also a blank scroll. If time was limited, then you would be here now, and you would like to redraw your talisman in front of us. ”
Across the file bag, he took out a bronzing certificate from it, shook it at Ye Shuo, and then put it on the table: "The certificate and badge have been prepared for you, as long as you can draw it, you can take it directly." ”
The eyes of the elders also scanned back and forth between the white paper and Ye Shuo's face, and there was a bit of schadenfreude among them. Obviously, he was waiting for the candidate to be unable to draw the talisman and take the initiative to give in.
However, Ye Shuo didn't take a second look at the blank paper, his body casually turned to the back side, leaning back in the chair: "I think that if the elders really disagree with my grades, it should be you who provide evidence that I cheated, not that I did not cheat." ”
Strictly speaking, this is not bad, even if the government handles the case, there is no precedent for the prisoner to prove his or her innocence. But this candidate is so fearless, which makes the elders recognize his identity as an "old fritter". While they were communicating with each other to discuss countermeasures, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded at the door of the conference room.
"Haha, this little brother is really interesting. The door had been pushed open at some point, and it was a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and a polite appearance who strode in. He has a briefcase under his arm, and a kind and gentle smile on his face.
Although this person looked quite kind, Ye Shuo sat up a little upright unconsciously when facing him. In the face of a group of elders before, he could still play a big trick, but in front of this person, he was forced to slow down his breathing. The strength of the other party...... I'm afraid that at least it is above the Tongtian Realm, and looking at the entire Tongtian Realm, it is an absolute leader!
The elders on the other side of the long table also had different expressions, and they all exclaimed, "President?!"
This person is the president of the Fu Master Guild? Ye Shuo's heart jumped. I didn't expect that even the president would be shocked for his own sake...... He didn't know what additional punishment there would be for cheating in the assessment, but his physique had always been different from ordinary people, in case they discovered his secret...... He doesn't want to be studied like a guinea pig!
Certificates and badges are not needed...... Ye Shuo was thinking about making up a reason and immediately said goodbye and left, but the chairman had already walked in front of him at this time, and a powerful spiritual pressure slowly dispersed, which actually made him only half of his body stand up and fall back into the chair.
"Little brother, don't be so nervous. I have always cherished talents, and I will naturally pay more attention to the best young people in the previous assessments. If I could, I'd love to have you into my rune guild. Next, if the little brother is not in a hurry, please follow me to the upstairs office for a detailed discussion. ”
With that, the chairman turned his back and strode away, and the pressure he exerted around Ye Shuo also disappeared at the same time.
Although what people say is very polite...... Ye Shuo stood up with a wry smile, but he was clearly sure enough that he couldn't leave if he wanted to...... Now I can only follow him, and take one step at a time.
Behind the president, the mahogany staircase climbed one floor after another. Perhaps to highlight its status, the president's office was built on the highest floor of the building. Seeing that the president was walking like flying alone, it was obvious that he had walked a lot on weekdays, and he had long been accustomed to it, leaving Ye Shuo behind him to snort and gasp.
Above each of these stairs, there is a spiritual power prohibition, and once anyone steps in, they will feel that their internal breath is not running smoothly, so they have to lift up and double their spiritual power to move forward. However, it is a common kind of "turning cultivation into life" in the spiritual cultivation world.
After climbing several floors one after another, Ye Shuo could be regarded as having found some skills, and his steps were much brisker. The president squinted at the change in his expression, and a subtle smile flashed on his face at his rapid progress.
The spiraling mahogany staircase finally reached the top, and the president led Ye Shuo all the way to the room at the end of the corridor. As soon as the door was pushed open, half of the internal scene came into view, and Ye Shuo gasped. It's not so much a room as a luxurious hall!
Large crystal chandeliers, all kinds of luxurious sofas, tables and chairs, and rows of connected bookshelves docked on the side walls, the scale is even no less than the library of Zhiyuan College, at a glance, it is full of a sense of history. As for fine wines, curiosities, and a wide variety of them, there is everything. There was also a row of lockers in the corner of the room, although the upper end was tightly covered with silk cloth, Ye Shuo guessed that most of them were some precious cultivation resources.
Rich people really enjoy it...... Ye Shuo smacked his lips, still looking around with an admiring gaze.
The president was very pleased with his exclamation, and while casually putting his briefcase on the sofa, he took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, and then walked to a long carved table in the middle and sat down leisurely. Push the name tag off the table a few points, move the tea cup, and refill the remaining tea leaves with boiling water.
Ye Shuo stood at the other end, this time there was still a table apart, but maybe the other party was sitting and standing by himself, this posture reminded him of the time when he was in Zhiyuan Academy, standing in front of Tutor Jiuhua's desk. Inexplicably, he became a little unnatural, swallowed his saliva, and preemptively said: "President, even when I get to your office, I shouldn't have cheated, and I still haven't cheated." ”
The president didn't even lift his eyelids, and the teapot in his hand rhythmically rose and went low, as if he was carefully observing the rotation of the tea leaves. Looking at his appearance of concentrating on "enjoying life", Ye Shuo only felt that he had no strength. His eyes rolled in all directions, and he was thinking about whether he should find another way, but his wandering gaze stopped in front of the name tag that had just been pushed away by the chairman in the corner of the square table.
"President of the Fu Master Union, Ming Fu Cheng".
In fact, from the first time he saw the other party, Ye Shuo felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't recall it for a while. Coupled with the oppression of the other party's Tongtian Realm, he was even more overwhelmed by himself. But now seeing this surname, it suddenly reminds him of a person in his mind......
As if sensing something, Ye Shuo's gaze subconsciously raised. On the coffee table not far away, there is a gold lacquer photo frame, in which the president, who looks much younger, and a boy with a bright smile, under a towering tree. Although the child's face was still very immature, Ye Shuo still recognized it, it was Ming Jitong!
"President, are you ......" Ye Shuo hesitated and turned his head, "Ming Jitong's father?"
When Ming Fu Cheng heard this, he didn't seem surprised, but he still turned the teacup indifferently: "Ji Tong, thank you for taking care of me." ”
Ye Shuo smiled a little embarrassedly: "Actually, I am more cared for by Senior Brother Ji Tong. However...... "must once again declare that he is not cheating."
Unexpectedly, Ming Fu Cheng waved his hand sharply: "I don't ask you if you are cheating now, I just ask, who is the person standing behind you?"
Ye Shuo was stunned, and he didn't know what he meant by this, Ming Fu Cheng had already said to himself: "I have repeatedly checked the surveillance video of your participation in the assessment, but I can't find any flaws...... But with my many years of experience as a talisman master, I can be sure that your first few exam papers and the last rune you handed in are definitely not from the same person...... So I just want to know, who is the one who used the extraordinary means to draw this talisman for you? The ...... standing behind you."
"People of the world!" Ye Shuo didn't know where he got the courage, and suddenly said loudly.
“…… What?" Ming Fu Cheng was obviously stunned when he heard his clueless answer.
Ye Shuo secretly clenched his fists: "Isn't the president really wanting to know who is standing behind me?" Then I will answer you now, you are a person from the world." ”
Ming Fu Cheng, who has always been calm and calm, didn't even bother to drink the tea that came to his mouth at this time. The eyes under the pressure of the lenses stared straight at Ye Shuo, and there was indescribable astonishment in his eyes. I really don't know how a cheating thing can be related to people in the world?
Ye Shuo cleared his throat and said slowly: "This talisman was taught to me by a friend of mine. We have no power or power, and only in this way can we get the attention of the president and get your summons. ”
Along the way, they and their advisors have always been isolated, and they want to fight against the Nine Shadows Palace, but with their own strength, they are too weak...... Ye Shuo sometimes meditated late at night, and after repeatedly analyzing the situation between the enemy and us, he came to the conclusion that unless they could break through to the reincarnation realm, it was definitely not possible to subvert a big force with the ability of one or two people. And the enemy, apparently, will not give them this time to grow. So, what they urgently need is actually an alliance.
As for the choice of allies, it is naturally better to have those big forces with status and strength. Only with forces can there be cohesion, confidence, and the foundation for negotiations with other forces. It's just that he is too weak now, and I'm afraid he doesn't even have the qualifications to talk to those big shots, so Ye Shuo can only put aside the matter of the alliance for the time being and concentrate on finding a way to become stronger.
The Talisman Guild, judging from the fact that they are able to hold an assessment of all talismans, they have quite far-reaching influence on the Spirit Continent, and they fully meet their criteria for selecting allies. If you can get their help......
To be honest, before seeing the famous brand, Ye Shuo couldn't think of such a thing. But this president turned out to be Ming Jitong's father, and there was such a relationship among them, which made him suddenly have the idea of gambling!
"This friend of mine comes from an ancient family of exorcists, the Gu family. And this family is now completely destroyed. The murderer who caused all this is ......"
Ming Fu Cheng's face turned pale sharply when he heard "Gu Clan", and at this time, he raised his hand and pushed it violently: "Little brother, don't say it again......
Ye Shuo was about to strike while the iron was hot, where to pay attention, and his voice was also raised higher in anger: "Why can't I say? The Gu clan has been exorcising demons for thousands of years to protect the peace of the people, and they have not done anything wrong, but they have been wiped out, and the only orphan has been forced to hide in Tibet." I want to help him and rebuild the Gu clan, and for that, we need more help. ”
With his hands on the table, he leaned forward, and said in a deep voice: "With your influence, as long as you are willing to ascend to the heights, call on people from all over the world to respond, unite as one, and crusade against the Nine Shadows Palace!"
With a "dang bang", the teacup in Ming Fu Cheng's hand fell on the spot, and the tea was fainted all the way on the table, but at this time, he didn't pay any attention to it.
Ye Shuo took a deep breath, straightened up, and said vigorously: "The Nine Shadows Hall can have the current power, in addition to their own strength, what is hidden behind it is the connivance of tens of millions of foolish people! In the face of evil, our indifference, and our insensitivity are all equivalent to being the accomplices of the other party, sharpening a quick knife for them, and one day, all these fast knives will also hang above our heads!"
"I believe that if you can gather the strength of everyone in the Spirit Realm Continent, even if you are the master of the Nine Shadows Palace, you can only kill by the neck, right?"
Ming Fu Cheng shook his head in despair: "We can't touch him, he is the closest person to 'that adult'!" At this moment, his calmness was long gone, his gaze crossed Ye Shuo, and he looked around in fear, as if he was guarding the wall.
Ye Shuo frowned: "Who is that adult?" For a long time, he had heard countless times that the people around him respected "that adult" like a god, but avoided it like a snake and scorpion. He is Gong Tianying's "subverted faith", and he is the advisor's "only person who can save him", but at the same time, he is the umbrella of the Nine Shadows Palace...... How many identities does he have, and why is he so comfortable walking between good and evil?
Ming Fu Cheng's appearance was even more embarrassing: "Actually, that adult, he is not a human ......"
