Volume 2 Xianxia Civilization Chapter 9: The First Batch of Disciples
The repair of the road is progressing smoothly, and the three mayors are present daily to direct it. Due to Wukong's additional budget of 500 gold coins, several people did not dare to fill their pockets this time and spent it on recruitment, with generous remuneration and on-site supervision of the leader, they finally successfully completed the task assigned by Wukong in three days.
In the early morning of the fourth day, a silver-gray carriage was speeding on the flat official road, and two middle-aged men in their 40s were sitting in the car, one of whom was the butler who had come to visit him last time, and the one beside him who was dressed in traditional aristocratic attire was Earl Clark. The Count is not a core member of the Asqubra family, but after years of hard work, he has been officially knighted. His old father complained many times in small talk with his clan uncles that if it weren't for the family branch, Clarke's talent would definitely be the first in line to the throne of the contemporary Askebula family.
Clark himself is a prudent worker, and has always avoided the complex and unpredictable family form. It was his own deliberate choice to become the county guard, and the first heir of the big family was not so easy to be, and the process of leading to the end of this road would fall a lot of people, and even if his life was gone, he would talk about life ideals and goals. The family hierarchy is strict, and it is even more difficult to reach the position of patriarch from the side branches, and if each branch wants to seek the position of patriarch, then the family has long disappeared into the history of the empire.
Earl Clark was closing his eyes in contemplation, and this time he had come to be ordered by the patriarch of the current empire. Although Goku's affairs are already an open secret among the higher-ups, he has only just made it clear before he goes here. Wukong's fief has not had a lord in office for many years because of the obstruction of the left minister, the Urakri is an important commercial port on the Gold Coast, but it is subordinate to Goku's current fiefdom. A few days ago, the tentative operation led by him has been sunk in the sea, and all the bandit forces that he has cooperated with for many years have not been heard from, although there are rumors that the bandits have been completely exterminated by mysterious powerhouses, but Clark has always been suspicious of this.
Looking at the flat and smooth official road that had just been paved under his feet, Clark felt that it was difficult to successfully complete the task assigned by the patriarch on this trip. This newly appointed little lord is obviously not a gentleman who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and he learned from the housekeeper that the road has not yet started when he last visited, and it is not a simple task for the nobles to complete the repair of the road in a county in just three days, which shows that several local snakes who have been entrenched here for many years must have all surrendered.
Lifting the curtain of the carriage, the outline of the castle appeared in front of him, and Clark turned to the butler and asked:
"What is your impression of this little lord?"
The butler hesitated for a moment, remembering the last time he came before he opened his mouth and said:
"I don't know, Lord Clark. ”
Clarke's face was displeased: "You've been with me for so long, what do you think?" ”
Clark trusts his butler very much, and he has a strong ability to serve him for many years, but he can't talk about the underage lord who has had a contact!
Seeing that the earl was displeased, the butler hurriedly added:
"I feel that this little lord is not the person in charge here, there is also a master and a master above him, it seems to be a hidden cultivation sect, although there is no evidence, but according to my guess, the disappearance of the bandits in the previous formation may be related to it. Adults are advised not to have bad relations with them as much as possible. ”
As the two spoke, the carriage came to the gate of the castle, and looking at the brand-new castle in front of him, Clark understood that the butler didn't know how to say it, this had subverted all the laws of nature, and an ancient castle hundreds of years ago had a new look.
The soldiers had welcomed the two into the hall of the castle, and like the exterior, the interior of the castle was as if it had been first built, without any traces of time.
A cup of tea of kung fu Wukong and Sun Bingyu appeared in the hall, Clark still has an impression of the regent's young daughter, and the last time at the aristocratic dinner in Huangding Dragon City, there was a relationship.
Clark looks like Goku, who is only twelve or thirteen years old, and is completely consistent with the information, and is indeed a weak-crowned teenager. But from him, he did not feel the vigor of young people at all, but had a sense of vicissitudes that had gone through the years.
Wukong was being nodded by Little Lori and was playing deep at this time, for a strong person whose genetic ability has reached the upper limit of the universe, it is just a trivial matter to think about what kind of breath to disperse.
Clark gave up the idea of temptation and said directly:
"On behalf of the Askebula family, I will return the management of the town of Ulakri, before the lord arrived, because the town of Urakri borders the county of Alxas under my jurisdiction, so it has been managed until now, and now that the town has a new owner, I should return it, and I hope that it can be further under your governance. ...... ,......。 ”
Wukong was a little annoyed listening to Count Clark's chatter and opened his mouth to interrupt his tirade:
"Take the handover paperwork, sign it, and you won't have anything to do. ”
Earl Clark's original plan came to an abrupt halt at that time, and the little lord was too out of the traditional routine of the nobility. Originally, the habit of the Huatian Empire was to ask for warmth from both sides, and then push each other to make concessions, and finally reach an agreement of interests, the Gold Coast is a huge cake, and it is really unwilling to be snatched away by the other party so easily.
"There are many bandits near the lord Urakri Town, and the family has been sending heavy troops to guard them, I wonder how the lord wants to protect the safety of the local residents?"
Wukong replied directly:
"Those thieves you mentioned, my master and I wiped them all out in one morning a few days ago, and now the surrounding bandits are gone, so there is no need for protection at all. ”
Clarke's head felt his skin tingle, it turned out that all the rumors and butler's speculations were true, and this new lord's master must be extremely powerful, and there might even be a real immortal. In the legend of the Tianxing Realm, there are some powerful cultivators who are reluctant to go to the Immortal Realm, and it is obvious that Wukong's master may be among them.
After learning the truth about the bandits, Count Clark had to abandon the family's original plan. According to the plan, the patriarch wanted to protect the town of Urakri on the grounds that the surrounding bandits were plagued, so as to achieve the goal of continuing to control the trade and trade in the region. It is rumored that all the bandits were eliminated by a strong man, which has been confirmed by the person concerned, and the bandit trouble that has been in trouble for nearly a thousand years has been solved dramatically. Known for his intelligence, the Count had to reconsider how to get along with this powerful neighbor.
After pondering for about 5 minutes, Clark spoke:
"I don't know if your sect accepts apprentices, but my youngest son is very interested in cultivation, and according to some cultivators, he also has some talent. ”
Little Clark is thirteen years old this year at the same age as Wukong, and he is very persistent in cultivating to become an immortal. There are very few people in the Askebula family who are suitable for cultivation, and most of the strong people in the family are in an employment relationship, if his son can join the Wukong Master, it can be regarded as leaving a way back for himself, even if the family has a bad relationship with him in the future, he can keep a trace of incense.
Wukong was very interested when he heard this, and said excitedly:
"Of course this is okay, I can accept him under my door, where is my disciple now, if I have spatial coordinates, I will go and pick him up directly. ”
The excited Wukong leaked some performances in line with his age at this time, and the Earl couldn't help but secretly sigh of relief and replied:
"I don't have a talent for cultivation myself, so I don't know much about cultivation, so I'll send someone to send him to the castle when I get back. ”
Wukong began to look Count Clark up and down, and muttered in a low voice:
"It's true that there is no genetic potential, but there is no problem with practicing to the earth immortal according to the boss's cultivation method. ”
Wukong's voice was not loud, but Clarke, who was beside him, could still hear it clearly, and asked unconsciously:
“...... Immortal ...... You say I can also cultivate to become an immortal?"
"It's true that it doesn't work in the traditional way, but how can the exercises of my sect be the same as those of ordinary cultivation sects, even idiots can cultivate to become immortals. ”
The housekeeper next to him couldn't help but ask:
“...... Shangxian ...... Do you think I also have a chance to cultivate and become an immortal?"
The entire Tianxing Realm attaches great importance to cultivation, because immortals can live forever, but most of them have no cultivation talent at all, so they can only look at it and sigh.
Wukong looked at the two in front of him and thought for a long time before replying:
"Shi Niang has been occasionally on a whim recently, and she wants to let the sect flourish, so she will open the sect to accept disciples in the near future. Our sect has a long tradition of the Mind Method, and all sentient beings can practice this method to become immortals. If you are interested, you can ask all the residents of your county to join us. ”
What Wukong said was quite informative, and in the cognition of the two, the sect was very strict about recruiting disciples, and even ordinary small sects basically did not accept ordinary mortals. And there is no limit to the requirements of such a powerful hidden world sect for disciples, either the sect inheritance is really powerful and can change the cultivation talent of ordinary people, or Wukong's sect is a liar in order to achieve a certain goal. The two of them believe in the first possibility, Wukong's words are still in their ears just now, if there are spatial coordinates, this eager little lord may bring his son directly over, this kind of lie that is easy to puncture has no place at all.
Wukong saw that the two were silent and urged:
"After this village, there will be no such shop, my junior sister is not as good at talking as me, if you want to join me through her, I will send you to die and you will have to peel off your skin. ”
After this period of understanding, Wukong is deeply touched by what little Lori has done, and the ownership of Robert and others in the thinking network has not been determined, and it stands to reason that they should be under his command, but the kung fu of less than a day is now all clear. So at this time, Wukong also began to step up his time to strengthen his team, if it wasn't for Shangguan Huiling's previous actions, Wukong didn't care about these things at all, but Little Lori's small actions forced Wukong to take action, if the situation continued like this, his status in the eldest sister's heart would definitely decline.
The Earl of Clark immediately made a judgment, and with his keen sense of politics, he found this to be a golden opportunity. There seems to be some internal competition in Wukong Shimen, and now the rewards of choosing to stand in line are absolutely rich, and Wukong Shimen's exercises can allow ordinary people to cultivate into immortals, which was unimaginable before.
After sorting out all the relationships, Clark spoke:
"As a lord, I declare that all the people of Al-Axias are willing to join your sect and become your disciples. ”
Wukong nodded all over the ground:
"Our Immortal Sect is called the Jacques Sera Sect, and the two of you are now my core disciples. Later, I will ask Shi Niang to add you to the thinking network of the internal contact of the sect, and if there are any problems, you can solve them in time. ”
Count Clark and the butler got up and were about to bow down, and Goku said:
"We don't have the worldly etiquette in our sect, and we don't need to be polite. ”
The earl thought in his heart that he seemed to have made the right bet this time, although he did not have the talent for cultivation, he still had some understanding of the various sects, and the status of the core disciples in the sect was far beyond the comparison of ordinary disciples.
Wukong thought about it and decided to add the two of them to the thinking network now, so as not to have many rebirth accidents in the long night. So he began to communicate with consciousness:
“...... Eldest sister...... Shi Niang...... Sister-in-law....... Under your wise leadership, I have just managed to fool the county warden next door, and now I need to ask you to join the two of them in the Thinking Network, and my intuition will be assigned to me. ”
Yun Miao was thinking about how to expand the sect, and the good news of Wukong came over. Immediately replied:
"I can't see that your monkey cub has grown a lot, and they have learned to share my worries, both of them have joined you, and I have directly promoted him to an ordinary administrator in that county guard, and his butler is now also an advanced user." ”
After receiving the reply, Wukong directly contacted the two with his consciousness in the thinking network:
"Welcome to the two of you to officially join the Jacques Serra faction, Clark has now been appointed by the master as the administrator of the thinking network, in the future, the residents in your territory will still be managed by you after joining the sect, and I will not interfere if there is nothing important. ”
The two of them have just joined the thinking network, and they are very curious about such a magical way of communication, and at the same time, they are more determined to their thoughts, Wukong's sect is probably stronger than the Tianxing Realm, and from the patriarch's description of the immortal world, I am afraid that there is no such a profound immortal sect.
The two of them, whose affairs had come to an end, got up and took their leave.
Sun Bingyu, who was beside Wukong, didn't say a word the whole time, and he felt even more unfathomable about his younger brother now. A few days ago, she had personally experienced the extermination of the bandits, Wukong's strength was completely beyond her perception of the strong, and her father was also a rare strong man, and she was pushed to the ground in a flash, and those huge pits made her linger.
She was the only audience member of Wukong's wise performance today, thinking of the task given to her by Shangguan Huiling, she suddenly came back to her senses and began to report the truth.
Little Lori who heard the report was throwing a tantrum in her bedroom:
"Good you stinky boy, you actually robbed Miss Ben's business. Sun Bingyu is really useless waste, let you spy on that kid, you didn't notify me in time when such an important thing happened, and now that the dust has settled, you report that there is a fart. No, I'll have to do it myself in the future. careless, the dead boy with a harmless face turned out to be full of flowers, Miss Ben was embarrassed this time, and she overturned in the gutter. ”
The more she thought about it, the more angry Shangguan Huiling became, but she quickly came back to her senses, and instantly knocked down the town of Urakri. The inhabitants of this town who have just returned are more than twice as high as the three towns in the territory combined, and they must strike first. Little Lori's head began to think about how to smoothly bring Urakri under her own.
