Chapter 9 Membership (II)

In fact, the site is wider than expected, and a long time has passed before you reach the archway. Only then did I see countless huge insects flying or walking, coming in and out of the ghost's mouth. As soon as some of the big insects rolled to the ground, they turned into the appearance of teenagers—no different from what they had seen in the small temple before.

In addition, I saw young people wearing five-colored shorts and turbans, some holding flags, some holding bright silver guns, and some beating drums and suona, it was really chaotic. The facial features of this group of people are closer to those of human beings than those of children.

But judging from the level of demonic power, the three people who traveled with Hua Jiuxi were simply different. Entering the ghost gate, I saw many private house-style buildings, and some little demons circled a piece of land and competed with swords.

And the huts are clustered around a large courtyard, carved dragons and phoenixes. But Hua Jiuxi noticed that the kisses in this big house were actually two snails, which was strange and funny.

Behind the big house, you can see the shadow of a ghost-headed archway, but the smoke is misty and you can't see clearly. The above is what Hua Jiuxi sees in his eyes.

"It's like a temple fair, a secret society, isn't it always well-organized?" Hua Jiuxi asked puzzled.

"Kid, you should have read too many novels." Luo Yue said, "This kind of gang is originally a place where scattered insects gather - how do they know any discipline? There was the boss's contempt in his tone.

Jiaqin and Xiangling didn't say a word, Hua Jiuxi thought to herself that this Luo Yue's mouth was really fast and straight, wasn't there all around him "insects"?

Seeing Hua Jiuxi and his party coming, the little demons along the way nodded and saluted - later Hua Jiuxi learned that nodding the insects was a big etiquette, and they didn't bow down.

Before they came to the big house, they saw twenty or thirty people standing on the east and west sides, dressed in all kinds of clothes—scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants. Among them, there are people who Hua Jiuxi knows, including rich people who have a lot of industry, and even teachers in their own schools (!) )。

However, monsters are mixed with human society, which Hua Jiuxi has long been familiar with, so he is not surprised. As soon as the four of them approached, someone in front of the courtroom swept it with their peripheral vision, and gave way in a playful way—this act was orderly, and in an instant the central road was much brighter.

"Who are these people?" Hua Jiuxi asked Xiang Ling in a whisper.

"Within the Mothweed Society, the disciples are ranked from the lowest to the highest according to the Bodhisattva fruit position as the 'Ten Dwellings', with the Ten Dwelling disciples as the highest. These are the ones who have made great contributions to the church and risen to the highest level, and to be awarded this rank, they must come to this altar. Xiang Ling said in a low voice.

"Then I have to start with a stay?"

"No, you are a relational household, and you can directly seal ten residences." Xiang Ling said, "The disciples of your sect have this treatment. ”

"After all, it is a small sect with no more than five people, and if there are many people, it is estimated that there will be no privileges." Hua Jiuxi muttered.

Listening to a very penetrating man's voice in the room, Luo Yue said, "This is the gnats running the hall." ”

The voice pronounced five names, and summoned them. I saw five people in the first row of the left column brushing and pushing the door into the house. Hua Jiuxi asked: "Is this what you want to go in and be sealed?" ”

Xiang Ling nodded: "Soon, sir, wait a while." ”

"It's okay, I'm not too patient." Hua Jiuxi said.

After about half an hour, I heard the gnats shouting: "Ban Xiaoqi, Second Sister Hua, Qiang Wulang, Hua Jiuxi!" ”

Hua Jiuxi went with the rest of the people, and Jiaqin and the three followed. When the three of them saw the three cave masters, they were all soft. Hua Jiuxi saw that these people were not very old and their appearance was not good, and they didn't know what merits they had made for the Moths Society.

In this way, they all entered the house, which was also a Buddha hall-like building, and the hall inside was very large, but the light was very dim. Dust flew in the pillars of light from outside the doors and windows, but Hua Jiuxi knew that those were actually extremely tiny insects.

"I've heard that there is a small insect that lays eggs on mosquito eyelashes, and that's it." Hua Jiuxi asked.

It seemed that no one paid attention to him, Hua Jiuxi looked up at the interior furnishings, and there were many brand new cobwebs in every corner - this was very strange. I saw the colossus statue in front of the hall again, which was ten zhang up and down, which was the shape of the big insect in Fangcai, and it was also the "worming Buddha" in their mouths. The couplets on the left and right red pillars are respectively written "mantis feather vibrating" and "melon is continuous".

There are five people of different colors in front of the statue, and one of them is wearing a pink robe. The appearance of these people is much more pleasing to the eye, and the demonic power is magnificent, radiating from far and near.

In front of the five people, there is another altar-like thing, and there is a god card in the middle of the stage, and the handwriting on it is "Marshal of the Three Insects", and there are more than a dozen messy order flags around the god card. The tablecloth covered with the gods was apricot-yellow, and one of the yin and yang fish could be seen directly in front of the audience - and here two grubs, one black and one white, were used instead of fish shapes.

While watching, he listened to the people in front of the altar.

"Hua Ye is not a brother who is not in the meeting, how can he be granted the position of ten residences?" This was asked by a man in a white robe, the shortest and richest of all the men.

"It's not for nothing that the story of three liters a day is not nothing, and you can join the club quickly - after all, there are bigger things to come." Pian Pian said.

"As expected, I called the pioneer of the questioning." The tall, thin man in the green robe in the center said.

"Do it quickly, don't let the other three brothers wait in a hurry." A yellow-robed man with a body similar to Hua Jiuxi said.

Only the last black-robed man did not speak, Hua Jiuxi saw that he was immature, about fifteen or sixteen years old, and looked impatient at this scene.

Hua Jiuxi didn't know what they were discussing, so he saw the man in green trembling his burqa slightly, and two green things rolled out of his feet, gradually growing larger from far to near. It wasn't until these two things stood like people that they realized that they were two mantis demons.

Hua Jiuxi saw that the body shapes of these two praying mantis demons were still changing, from the pure insect face at the beginning, they became a pair of green-faced twins. The two of them each took an emerald green waist knife in their hands, and stepped over to carry Hua Jiuxi away.

Hua Jiuxi was brought to a corner of the lobby, and the light was even darker.

"Brother Hua, have you memorized the cliché before?" Listen to a praying mantis ask him.

"......No," Hua Jiuxi said, "but I know a little bit about the slang of some other gangs!" ”

"That's easy, you take a look at this first." After that, he handed a page to Hua Jiuxi, Hua Jiuxi glanced at it, and remembered it, which was indeed similar to what he knew.

"Okay?" The praying mantis said, and suddenly said sharply: "Kneel!" ”

Hua Jiuxi was taken aback, and immediately understood what was going on and knelt down, but unfortunately there was not even a futon.

"Take it." Another praying mantis gave him a long, two short and three incense sticks, and asked Hua Jiuxi to light it by himself.

Hua Jiuxi was helpless, and transported the spiritual power in his palm, and ignited the incense instantly. The two praying mantis were expressionless: "Yes." ”

"Why are you here?" The praying mantis began to ask.

"I've been summoned here." Hua Jiuxi replied.

"Where did you come from?" Praying mantis asked.

"From the Queen Mother of the West." Hua Jiuxi replied.

"Who is your witness?" Praying mantis asked.

"Heaven and earth, sun and moon." Hua Jiuxi replied.

"Brother, can you eat vegetable roots and rotten leaves?" Praying mantis asked.

"What my brother eats, I eat." Hua Jiuxi replied.

After answering like this, I saw the two praying mantis pinning their waist knives to Hua Jiuxi's head and neck, and their necks were cold, but Hua Jiuxi wanted to laugh.

"Is your neck tough?" Praying mantis asked.

"Tough." Hua Jiuxi replied.

"Alright, please cave master." A praying mantis said.

"But there is no cave master of the Shell family at the moment?" Another said.

"Then you and I will be the abbot." Of course, no one objected to this statement.

"Who are you?" The praying mantis begins the second round of questioning.

"I'm a black-headed worm in the world." Hua Jiuxi replied.

"Is there anyone in the world without a surname? Where were you born? The praying mantis asked.

"I was originally a general of the Song Dynasty, and the Northern Kou attacked and destroyed Jiashan. The mayfly has nothing to send, and a little bit of blood has not dried. I want to drive out thieves and protect sentient beings as a mere person. Therefore, the grass is the home, the flower is the medium, the moth is the father, and the moth is the younger brother. ”

The praying mantis asked, "How far have you traveled to get here?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "One hundred and eight thousand miles." ”

The praying mantis asked, "How many people came with you?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "Alone." ”

The praying mantis asked, "Why is it alone?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "My brother died in Jiangnan, and my brother died in the north." ”

The praying mantis asked, "When did you come?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "The angry-eyed old man will come when he sleeps." ”

The praying mantis asked, "You come from the avenue, from the path?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "Carving insects, although the trail is also impressive. ”

The praying mantis asked, "Do you have a civil and military book?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "Yes." ”

The praying mantis asked, "Where did you get it?" ”

Hua Jiuxi replied: "Wen is from birds, and Wu is from beasts." ”

After asking this, he asked Hua Jiuxi to recite some oaths, and the praying mantis pierced Hua Jiuxi's fingers and smeared the blood on the foreheads of the three of them.

Hua Jiuxi received the precepts, and the initiation ceremony was over, but he was tired enough.

Then let Hua Jiuxi and the three of them continue to kneel in front of the altar, and saw the green-robed guest holding a dust whisk in one hand and a bowl in the other hand walking in front of them.

The green-robed guest used the dust to dip the liquid in the bowl - after so many things, Hua Jiuxi would suspect that there was something strange even if the liquid was clear and transparent.

Just seeing that the liquid was as white and shiny as milk, just a few drops were sprinkled on Ban Xiaoqi's head, and the green-robed mouth was chanting, but he couldn't hear it clearly.

Soon Hua Jiuxi was also sprinkled, it was cold and cold, and there was no other feeling. Hua Jiuxi was happy for a while, and listened to the green-robed man say: "Since you are a disciple of the Ten Dwellings, you should work hard to ......" Hua Jiuxi knew that it was some useless nonsense, and he didn't take it to heart.

The cantharids took their certificates, tokens, and a banner and left happily. Second Sister Hua also glanced back at Hua Jiuxi, probably wondering why such an ordinary human was kneeling with them!

"Great, it's time to move on to the next step." Several people who were standing in front of them walked down the altar one after another and crowded around Hua Jiuxi.
