Chapter 38 Personnel of the Outer Door
It looked like it should be a hall around, and they were standing in a teleportation array in the center of the hall that was smaller than just now, there were all kinds of tables, chairs, bookcases in the hall, and more than a dozen Xuanshui Sect disciples in various costumes were standing or sitting, all looking at their group. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"You are the young disciples who have passed this assessment and selection, welcome to the outer gate of Xuanshui Gate, come out of the teleportation array, you first rest in this teleportation hall for a while, and there will be others to teleport over later." The middle-aged man in the green robe sitting on the chair on the side of the hall spoke.
When the young man in the formation heard this, he immediately walked out of the teleportation array, Zhao Lengfei helped Mu Xizi, came to the corner of the hall, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Mu, are you okay." ”
"Well, it's okay, it's just a little dizzy and nauseous." Mu Xizi is still a little unsteady on his feet, and he is also struggling to speak.
"This is for you, try it on your forehead." Zhao Lengfei took out a piece of jade from his pocket, which was only the size of a copper coin, and handed it to Mu Xizi.
"Thank you, brother, then I'm welcome." Mu Xizi took the piece of jade from Zhao Lengfei's hand as she spoke, and put it on her forehead, and suddenly an indescribable cool and comfortable feeling came from her forehead, and in less than two minutes, the feeling of dizziness and nausea disappeared.
Feeling that her body had recovered, Mu Xizi took the jade bi away from her forehead, she put the jade bi in the palm of her hand and carefully examined it: "It's amazing, brother, what kind of jade is this?" ”
"This is a pure heart jade, which has the effect of clearing the heart and awakening the mind, which can relieve the discomfort of the body."
This piece of Qingxin jade is Zhao Lengfei's father gave him a birthday gift when he was four years old, he has been carrying it with him all these years, his father said that this jade can not only clear the heart and awaken the mind, but also enhance the physique and resist disease when worn for a long time, Zhao Lengfei has never seen the introduction of Qingxin jade in the book, so he didn't treat this piece of jade as a treasure, just saw that Mu Xizi was unwell and immediately took it out.
He didn't know what Qingxinyu was, Mu Xizi knew, after listening to Zhao Lengfei's answer, Mu Xizi felt her scalp tighten, she looked left and right, and found that no one noticed the conversation between herself and Zhao Lengfei, and hurriedly stuffed Qingxinyu back into Zhao Lengfei's hand, and whispered: "Brother, put it away, don't take out such a precious thing in the future." ”
In ancient times, outside the East China Sea of Dasheng Kingdom, there was a maritime country called the Moon Spirit Heavenly Kingdom, and the supreme national treasure of the Moon Spirit Heavenly Kingdom, Hao Yuebi, was carved from pure heart jade.
Four or five thousand years ago, the emperor of the Dasheng Kingdom at that time, Emperor Jiuxuan, in order to get the Haoyuebi, went to the sea four times to the east, and finally snatched the Haoyuebi.
However, what he snatched back was not a complete Haoyue Bi, but had been broken into seven pieces, and the Nine Xuan Emperors found skilled craftsmen to carve these seven pieces of Qingxin Jade into different things.
Due to the fact that Emperor Jiuxuan fought in all directions for many years, the national strength of Dasheng Kingdom was declining day by day, and his children and grandchildren were not angry after ascending the throne, so within a few decades after his death, the Dushi country was taken away by others, and the seven pieces of Qingxin Jade were also missing, and I don't know whose hands they fell into.
Later, Qingxin Jade appeared several times in the Dasheng Kingdom, but it didn't take long for it to disappear inexplicably, and only one piece was obtained by the ruler of the Dasheng Kingdom, and it is still set on the emperor's dragon crown.
These things are only recorded in the secret history of the royal family, and it is normal that Zhao Lengfei has not heard of it, Mu Xizi's grandfather Mu Lipei has been an official in the capital for so many years, so he knows something, Mu Xizi heard about Qingxin Jade from her grandfather's mouth, it is said that except for the Haoyuebi that was broken into seven pieces, she has never heard of anything else made of Qingxin Jade.
If it was known that there was a piece in Zhao Lenghai's hand, it would not be overturned, Mu Xizi leaned into Zhao Lenghai's ear and whispered a few words to him, and Zhao Lenghai's face changed when he heard it.
At this moment, the white light of the teleportation array in the center of the hall flashed, and more than ten people were sent over, these more than ten people were wearing the costumes of Xuanshui Gate, and after they appeared, they did not show any discomfort.
When these Xuanshui Sect disciples walked out of the teleportation array, they called Zhao Lengfei and the other teenagers over, a middle-aged man and a beautiful young woman came out of the crowd, and the man said to the teenagers in front of him:
"I am Zheng Peng, a disciple of the deacon of the Xuanshui Gate, you can call me Deacon Zheng, this is Deacon Chen, and your life and cultivation in the future will be mainly arranged by the two of us.
This is the teleportation hall of the outer gate of the Xuanshui Gate, come with me, I will take you to the residence first, and then tell you about the rules of this door, today is mainly to familiarize you with the environment here, tomorrow will be a special introductory ceremony for you, and after the ceremony is over, the cultivation plan will be arranged according to your respective conditions. ”
Zhao Lengfei and other young men followed Deacon Zheng out of the teleportation hall, he found that the teleportation hall was actually built alone on a stone square, there are several rows of stone steps on one side of the square, in the dense mountain forest, the other is a huge mountain gate, the plaque on the door has three big red characters of Xuanshui Gate, on both sides of the mountain gate is a wall up to several meters high, and there is no end in sight, and there are four disciples wearing Xuanshui Sect costumes at the door, who are curiously looking at their group of people.
Behind the mountain gate and the wall, you can see countless pavilions and pavilions, they expose a wall or a corner in a variety of tall and rare ancient trees, dozens of miles behind the mountain gate, you can vaguely see a mountain peak up to several thousand meters, and the white clouds and mist flutter on the mountainside, as if the secret realm of the fairy mountain.
At this moment, at the south gate of Xuanyin City, more than a dozen Xuanshuimen disciples were arranging for their families to return to the city, and the remaining Xuanshuimen disciples were under the command of Elder Gongsun, putting away the shifting array on the ground, and finally they also returned to Xuanyin City from the south gate, only the Elder Gongsun drove his sword and flew into the deep mountains.
On the way to the residence, Deacon Zheng gave a brief introduction to the situation of the outer gate to the young people, the outer gate of Xuanshui Gate is located at the foot of Qingji Peak, more than five hundred miles southwest of Xuanyin City, but there is no real road to Xuanyin City, and there are only three ways to leave the outer gate and go to Xuanyin City.
One is to fly directly, but flying such a long distance, only the consuls, elders and masters of the outer gate can do it, the other is to walk over the mountains and mountains, there are many poison insects and beasts in the mountains, and there are more demon beasts, so even the deacons have to travel together to ensure personal safety, and the last one is to use the teleportation array in the outer portal hall, except for some special days, anyone who uses the teleportation array needs to pay a fee, which is no exception to the door master elders.
The outer gate of Xuanshui Gate now has two sect masters, eight elders, twenty-one consular disciples, more than a hundred deacon disciples and nearly a hundred high-level disciples, in addition to hundreds of low-level disciples and thousands of service disciples.
The two sect masters are Qiu Jizi Qiu Sect Master and Qi Shan Qi Deputy Sect Master, these two sect masters are nearly three hundred years old, and their cultivation is in the late and middle stages of Jindan respectively, and the two sect masters spend most of their time in cultivation, occasionally presiding over major affairs of the outer gate, or going to the inner gate to participate in some important meetings, and ordinary disciples rarely see them.
The eight elders were Elder Liu, the first alchemist of the outer gate, who was responsible for managing the elixir garden, spirit beast garden, and pill pavilion of the outer gate.
Elder Ye, who had only recently obtained the position of elder, was mainly responsible for arranging the daily work of all the disciples of the outer gate, and managing the task hall, the Fu Pavilion and the refining hall of the outer gate.
Elder Sun is responsible for the law enforcement work of the Outer Gate, in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, leading the Law Enforcement disciples of the Outer Gate to maintain the security of the Outer Gate and Xuanyin City, and also managing the Outer Gate's arena hall and various formations.
Elder Wang is in charge of the management of the mortals of Xuanyin City, and at the same time is responsible for the communication between the outer gate and other small sects and the Xiuzhen family.
Elder Gongsun, the most famous fighting maniac among the elders of the outer gate, has superb spells, manages the Hall of Punishment, and is responsible for maintaining the peace and stability of the cultivation realm within the influence of Xuanshuimen, and the main task is to sweep away some evil cultivators and evil forces.
Elder Xiao and the only female elder, Elder Nangong, were responsible for guiding the cultivation of deacon disciples and high- and low-level disciples, and the two of them managed the Outer Gate's Gongfa Pavilion, Practice Hall, Lecture Hall, etc.
There is also an Elder Liu, who used to be in charge of Elder Ye's current work, and he is currently in the retreat of life and death to hit the bottleneck of cultivation, and he has been in retreat for several years.
Among the eight elders, except for Elder Nangong, who is in the middle stage of Jindan, the others are all in the early stage of Jindan.
The twenty-one consular disciples are mainly responsible for the work of the assistants of the seven elders, and manage a certain hall or a certain hall alone or together.
As long as the foundation is successfully built, the high- and low-level disciples can become deacon disciples, there are more than 100 deacon disciples in Xuanshui Gate, most of the deacon disciples' cultivation is below the heartbeat period, only a few deacon disciples have cultivated to the heartbeat period, but they are all penanced people, unwilling to take up positions to manage the affairs of the outer door, so they did not get the title of consular disciples.
Most of the more than ninety high-level disciples in the gate are apprentices accepted by elders and consuls, and a small number of them are selected from among the low-level disciples with outstanding qualifications, Zhao Lengfei and other young disciples and the young disciples selected in this assessment will also become high-level disciples after the introductory ceremony, and the task of high-level disciples is to cultivate, and there is no need to hold any position in the outer gate.
The residents of Xuanyin City can serve in the outer gate for three years as long as they pass the physical examination before the age of thirty, these people are service disciples, they are responsible for the most inferior chores that the Xuanshui Gate cultivators disdain to do, and they cannot be counted as disciples of the Xuanshui Gate, serving in the outer gate is actually a beautiful difference, not only can they earn a lot of money, but they can also be promoted to low-level disciples after the expiration of the service period to continue to stay in the outer gate, and have the opportunity to learn the truth, so both men and women in Xuanyin City are vying to serve in the outer gate.
The low-level disciples are all selected from the service disciples, they are the lowest-level existence in the entire Xuanshui Sect Outer Sect disciples except for the service disciples, responsible for the daily chores of the outer sect and arranging the work of the service disciples, the cultivation time of the low-level disciples is very small, and the status is much worse than that of the high-level disciples.
If a low-level disciple performs well and makes a great contribution to the sect, he will be promoted to a high-level disciple, and if he can please the elders and consuls and be accepted as an apprentice, he can also be promoted to a high-level disciple naturally.
On the way to their residence, the group of them stopped in various places, which were the Elixir Garden, the Pill Pavilion, the Fu Pavilion and the Low-level Lecture Hall.
The area of the elixir garden is very large, surrounded by a high fence, through the fence you can see that there are large areas of elixir planted inside, the medicine field can not be seen at a glance, the elixir garden is not only responsible for providing alchemy medicinal materials to the elixir pavilion, but also to provide some plant materials for the Fu Pavilion and the refining hall.
There is only a small double-storey wooden building in the elixir garden as the office of the management personnel of the elixir garden, there is a consul, five deacons, and more than a dozen low-level disciples and more than a hundred service disciples are responsible for taking care of the medicine garden.
Most of the finished pills needed for the cultivation of the disciples in the sect were obtained from the Pill Pavilion or purchased through other means, and almost no one came to the Elixir Garden to obtain medicinal materials to refine by themselves, and only when the new disciples learned to identify medicinal materials would they come here, so the Elixir Garden was deserted most of the time.
The Pill Pavilion is a majestic stone building, next to the Elixir Garden, which is the place where the outer gate refines and stores the elixir, and it is one of the most lively places in the outer gate, where there are often high-ranking disciples, deacons, consuls and even elders who come in and out to buy or customize the elixir they need.
The rune pavilion is a place to make and store talismans, talisman-making is not as difficult as alchemy, even ordinary deacon disciples, most of them will make one or two low-level talismans, but the low-level talismans are not very useful, ordinary people come here to seek high-level talismans that they can't make, high-level disciples can come here for free to learn to make talismans, low-level disciples do not have such a good treatment, they come here to learn talisman making is to pay a fee.
There are two lecture halls at the outer gate, the place where Zhao Lengfei and they passed is the low-level lecture hall, which is a circle of open-air stairs, and there is a stone platform with a radius of several meters in the middle, the low-cost lecture hall is a place for low-level disciples to learn Xiuzhen, but there are also often high-level disciples who go to listen to lectures, and here they will teach Xiuzhen and other knowledge at a fixed time every month by high-level disciples or deacons.
The high-level lecture hall is located indoors, in the deepest part of the outer gate station, only high-level disciples and deacon disciples have the right to enter, and it is also open at a fixed time every month, where the people in charge of teaching Xiuzhen are deacons or consuls with higher cultivation in the outer gate.
After walking for more than an hour, Zhao Lengfei and the others finally came to a building, where there were more than 100 stone buildings of different sizes and heights. Deacon Zheng pointed to one of the three-story stone towers and said, "This one is the residence of your male disciples, and there are more than twenty rooms on each floor inside, and you can choose one of them as your room. ”
He pointed to the two-story stone building next to him and said, "This smaller one is the residence of your four female disciples. ”
The young people were surprised a lot when they heard it, no one thought that the living conditions here were so good, one room for one person, you can choose at will, look at the appearance of these two buildings, you know that the rooms inside must be very spacious.
Deacon Zheng saw the surprise of the young people, and he explained: "Don't be surprised, cultivators are most taboo to be disturbed when cultivating, so it is necessary for each person to have their own separate room, and the living area of the outer gate is one of the places with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire Qingji Peak, and practicing here can have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort."
Several elders and door masters have their own separate caves on the mountain, and the consuls and deacons have their own courtyards each, and the high-level disciples live in the same building as you, a few or a dozen people live in the same building, which is a place to eat, except for the two sect masters, seven elders and a few consuls, the others have not yet opened the valley, and the meals are all in charge of the service disciples, and the places where the consuls, deacons and high-level and high-level disciples eat are the same, and the meals and ingredients here are charged, If any of you are willing to cook for yourself, you can do that.
Now you go and choose your room, put down your luggage, come out in half an hour, and I'll show you around the other places outside the door. ”
