Chapter 2 The Eve of the Competition

On this day, in the Sanqing Palace, Lu Wenfu and Changpingzi were discussing the matter of the disciples' entrance examination. Lu Wenfu said: "There should be five hundred and twenty people participating in the selection of disciples this time, and the thirty-four people in Tianxuan Palace are in charge of the Leng Fairy in Tsing Yi. ”

Chang Pingzi said: "The word has not yet been passed on, according to the usual practice, it should be the candidate appointed by Uncle Lu." ”

Lu Wenfu said disdainfully: "Who else can Uncle Lu appoint?" It must be the flamboyant Qian Wenyi. Before he finished speaking, he heard a person at the gate of the hall laugh and said: "Senior Brother Lu is really a wise man, what he said is not false at all, it is indeed me, a flamboyant disciple, begging him to be a deacon appointed by the old man." Then he paced slowly.

Lu Wenfu was embarrassed for a while, and said with a smile: "I was joking with Brother Changpingzi, but Senior Brother Qian, you came." It's great to have you in charge. ”

Qian Wenyi said with a smile: "Be polite, polite, it's good that the junior brother doesn't make trouble for the two, if you say that you are presiding over major events, Senior Brother Lu is still sophisticated, and he is here to learn." ”

Lu Wenfu said lightly: "Senior Brother Qian doesn't have to be too humble. ”

Qian Wenyi sat down on the chair and asked, "I don't know how the two senior brothers plan to make the selection." ”

Chang Pingzi said: "If the name of the Sanqing Palace is recorded, there should be five hundred and twenty disciples, and thirty-four female disciples of the Tianxuan Palace will also go to Langfeng Terrace to get all of them." ”

"Oh! I don't know who led the people of Tianxuan Palace? ”

Chang Pingzi said: "It's the fairy in Tsing Yi." Qian Wenyi showed a slight look of disappointment, nodded and said, "It turned out to be her." After a while, he asked, "There are many disciples participating this time, how should we arrange it?" ”

Chang Pingzi glanced at Lu Wenfu and said in a low voice: "I have agreed on a preliminary method with Senior Brother Lu, I don't know if it is feasible or not?" ”

Qian Wenyi said with a smile: "Senior Brother Lu's method must be very appropriate. ”

Lu Wenfu sneered: "If you don't dare to do it, you have to approve it." ”

Qian Wenyi said: "Listen to me. ”

Lu Wenfu said: "There are not many people in Tianxuan Palace, it's good to arrange, I have many disciples in the Sanqing Palace, and I take the school examination one by one, it will be protracted, and that day is a head?" So I think that the best will be taken, and the winner will be taken. ”

Qian Wenyi frowned and said, "I also hope that Senior Brother will explain what it means to choose the best, take it as appropriate, and take it as appropriate, and the winner will take it." ”

Lu Wenfu raised his voice and said: "Knowing a son is better than a father, and knowing an apprentice is better than a teacher." I have taught this group of disciples for a day, and there are no numbers of who are superior and who are inferior? Therefore, to choose the best is to save a lot of trouble by exempting those who have already revealed their roots from the competition and winning directly. ”

Qian Wenyi nodded and said, "That makes sense." ”

Lu Wenfu said: "It's just that there is a disadvantage to doing this, some of the disciples sent by the famous cave house have different qualifications, if they are eliminated first, it will inevitably hurt the righteous path and harmony, therefore, I have listed the names of the disciples selected from all over the cave, and also let these people be exempted from the competition, one shows that I am generous and generous, and the other is more favorable, anyway, these people will return to the cave house if they are successful, and learn his own kung fu, so why make it difficult?" In the future, when I Kunlun fights with the Demon Sect, these caves and blessed lands will also come in handy, so this is to take it at your discretion. ”

Qian Wenyi praised: "Senior Brother Lu is really thoughtful, admire, admire. The winner must be more classic, and the younger brother is willing to listen to it. ”

Lu Wenfu said with a smile: "This winner is the easiest to take, the rest of the people after two rounds of selection, how many more, as long as the rest of the people have a real competition, the results will naturally come out." ”

Qian Wenyi smiled in surprise.

After a few words of gossip, Qian Wenyi said goodbye and returned to Yuxu Palace. As soon as he left, Lu Wenfu said proudly: "Even he has nothing to say, it seems that there is no doubt about the selection of disciples this time." Chang Pingzi said on the side: "Although Senior Brother Qian has no objection, it was appointed by Uncle Lu, and I am afraid that I will have to go back to pay tribute." Lu Wenfu said: "Do they have any better opinions?" Senior brother, you go and gather the disciples in front of the palace, I have instructions. Changpingzi answered and left the hall.

As soon as Qian Wenyi returned to the Yuxu Palace, he went straight to Lu Gongli's room, and said: "Master, Senior Brother Lu has won the hearts of the people, formed a gang and messed up, and acted unfairly. Lu Gongli was looking at the scriptures by himself, and when he heard what his apprentice said, he put the scriptures down and said with displeasure: "What's the matter?" Qian Wenyi said: "The disciple went to the Sanqing Hall to ask about the school examination, Senior Brother Lu said that there is a screening method, what to choose the best, take it as appropriate, and take the winner, except for the last one is slightly fair, the first two are clearly the difference between favoritism and malpractice, and the disciple does not dare to agree to this matter, so he came to tell the teacher. "Explained Lu Wenfu's method.

Lu Gongli thought for a while, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "There is still some truth." When I Kunlun is employing people, I can't care about everything. Qian Wenyi said hurriedly: "Master, according to this method, it is inevitable that some people will be opportunistic, but some honest people will be eliminated. Lu Gongli smiled slightly and said: "I Kunlun recuperate, lie quietly for ten years, and it will happen soon, like this, the master has another word to tell." Qian Wenyi bowed his head and said, "Master, please speak." Lu Gongli said: "The more the merrier!" ”

Qian Wenyi was stunned for a long time, then nodded and said, "Disciple understands." "Just about to turn around and exit. Lu Gongli said: "In order to show fairness, let the three groups of people compare whether they are confused, first make a good idea, and then come back and tell the teacher." Qian Wenyi's heart said that Master was really powerful, and with a few words, he disrupted Lu Wenfu's wishful thinking, and said respectfully: "Yes." "Withdrew.

Sanqing Palace.

A group of young disciples were bustling around the gate of the hall, only to hear someone inside call names: "Yao Shun!" A disciple bowed down and entered the hall, and soon after Xi Zizi came out of the temple gate, all the disciples hurriedly surrounded the man and asked, "Senior Brother Yao, what did the master call you?" Yao Shun said with a smug face: "Master said that he will take the school exam tomorrow, and he wants me to put what I have learned into practice and live up to my years of hard work." All the young disciples immediately exploded and said, "It turns out that it is tomorrow!" "It's finally here!" …… Some are very happy, and some are sad. "Zhao Cheng!" Another disciple was called in, and soon he came out with a smile on his face. "Wei Zijie!" ……。 More than half of the disciples were called in, most of them were very happy, and a few disciples came out with anger on their faces, and the others all said that this must be a verbal collision with the master, and the rest were even more cautious, for fear that they would go in later and say something wrong.

"Zhou Qing!"

A disciple agreed, squeezing out the crowd, it was Zhou Qing. After a few years, his figure has grown a lot taller, and his indifferent face has gone through wind and frost, but he doesn't seem to be like a young man, and under his thick eyebrows, the corners of his eyes are lowered with a trace of imperceptible scheming.

Zhou Qing walked into the hall quickly.

Lu Wenfu sat on the side of the main hall, but Chang Pingzi was not around. Zhou Qing worshiped Sanqing, kowtowed to the teacher, and knelt down to listen to Lu Wenfu's lecture.

"Zhou Qing, how many years have you been here?"

Zhou Qing said: "The disciple has been in the Sanqing Hall for seven years and two months. ”

Lu Wenfu smiled and said, "You remember clearly." Let me ask you, how sure are you that you will not be able to take the school exam soon? ”

Zhou Qing bowed his head and said, "Disciple...... Not at all. ”

Lu Wenfu's face was blank and he said, "In this way, you are blaming the teacher for not teaching you well." ”

Zhou Qing hurriedly said: "The disciple doesn't dare, it's really the disciple who is stupid, and his qualifications are not as good as other senior brothers, so he can't learn anything, and he has to bear the master's teachings, so he doesn't dare to complain about the master, and the grace of the master's teaching will never be forgotten." ”

Lu Wenfu hummed and nodded, "It's good if you understand." Tomorrow's school examination, choose the best, I see that you have practiced hard in recent years, although the skills are small, but there is still a distance from the threshold of entry, but the spirit is commendable, so I intend to promote, so that you are exempt from the competition, what do you think? ”

Zhou Qing was ecstatic in his heart, he really couldn't imagine that entering the hall was for this matter, it was really a blessing from heaven, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "Master is virtuous, the disciple has nothing to repay, but if the master asks, the disciple will definitely go to the soup and die." ”

Lu Wenfu smiled: "Okay, don't forget today's words, go ahead." ”

Zhou Qing knelt on the ground and did not move. Lu Wenfu frowned and said, "Zhou Qing, what's the matter?" Zhou Qing knocked his head three times, and said, "The disciple has one more thing to ask." ”

Lu Wenfu drank tea by himself, and Zhou Qing said: "I don't know how to arrange it for Senior Brother Fang Zhongfang?" ”

Lu Wenfu said coldly: "He is not among the schools in this examination." ”

Zhou Qing was shocked and asked, "Why?" ”

Lu Wenfu said: "Although he is a disciple of the Sanqing Palace, he has not listened to lectures for a day, and he deals with animals all day long, what kind of Tao is he cultivating?" Even if he is allowed to participate in the competition, does he have the ability? Hmph, for his face, it's better not to come. ”

Zhou Qing saw that Lu Wenfu had made up his mind, so he had to retreat without saying a word. Out of the hall, another disciple was summoned in, Zhou Qing wanted to go back to the beast riding shed and tell Fang Zhong the news, but he was a little unbearable, hesitant, absent-minded, and walked to the original residence behind the hall, pushed the door in, but saw that his eyes were full of dust, and it turned out that no one had lived. Zhou Qing sighed for a while, and said to himself: "I, Zhou Qing, am already an official disciple of Kunlun, and I will never come to this place again, and you have also accompanied me for several years to clean up for you." "I found a broom and dusted the room.

When cleaning the board shop, the dust was swept away, revealing a piece of yellow paper, and when I picked it up, there were several incantations drawn on it. Zhou Qing thought for a while: "No one came to live here, it must have been accidentally left by Senior Brother Fang." I wanted to get along with Fang Zhong for a few years, and I was quite concerned, so I said to the yellow paper: "Senior Brother Fang, it's not that Senior Brother won't help you, when I become famous, I will definitely take care of you." "I folded the yellow paper and carried it in my arms. That night, I rested in my room.
