Chapter 6: Testing the Spiritual Root

"Xilin, Xilin. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Are you at home? ”

Outside the fence, a crisp girl's voice came.

In the kitchen, a seven-year-old girl sits behind the stove, looking intently at the steaming ashes.

Well, it's been boring for more than an hour, it should be cooked, and she was about to pull away the ashes with a wooden stick to take a look, but she heard someone calling her outside the door, Wei Xilin sighed, got up and ran out.

At the gate of the fence was standing a little girl in pink, her same age as her, very delicate, the girl from the Zhuang family, her skin was a little dark, but her big eyes revealed a hint of agility.

Wei Xilin opened the fence, let the girl in pink in, closed it casually, and pulled the girl towards the kitchen.

"Little Lingzi, why are you here? Aunt Li, didn't come with you? ”

The girl in pink is Aunt Li's daughter named Lan Ling'er, who is just seven years old this year, and she is a lively and lovely little girl.

"Mother coaxes Qiu'er at home, that little guy is very skinny, he just ran around and fell, and he was crying happily."

Lan Linger spoiled her younger brother Lan Yiqiu helplessly, thinking that it took five years after her mother gave birth to her to give birth to such a younger brother, and the whole family doted on him, although she loved this younger brother very much, she was still very strict with him.

"Oh, you came just in time, I just stewed a few sweet potatoes, and now I guess they're ripe, let's eat them together."

Wei Xilin nodded indifferently, she just asked casually.

The two came to the back of the stove, Wei Xilin picked up the wooden stick prepared in advance, and pulled out the sweet potatoes buried in it one by one, there were eight in total, quite big, but she was greedy for a little bit.

After waiting for a while, it was not very hot, so the two of them took a peel and ate it, the sweet potato was sweet and soft, and the two of them blew straight after eating.

Lan Ling'er took two bites before remembering the matter, looked up at her friend and said, "Xilin, do you know the Qingyun Sect?" I've heard that we're going to start accepting apprentices in a few days, so let's go to Lanyu Town to try it out. ”

Wei Xilin was stunned when she heard this, and her face was dazed and puzzled, Qingyun faction? What is that?

Thinking about it, she asked her doubts, Lan Ling'er was shocked, Xilin hadn't heard of the Qingyun Sect? That's the number one super immortal cultivator in the Hengyu Continent!

Lan Ling'er put the sweet potato in her hand on the stove, sat down next to Wei Xilin, and started talking about the Qingyun Sect.

Wei Xilin's eyes widened, and the more she listened, the more she felt that her mind was clouded, what did she hear, what sect of cultivating immortals, what sect selected disciples, what spiritual root test......

According to Lan Ling'er's limited knowledge, Wei Xilin learned that there were many large and small immortal cultivation sects in the Hengyu Continent, and there were only six first-class sects, namely the Qingyun Sect, the Lanxi Sect, the Yuxia Sect, the Wandan Sect, the Royal Beast Sect, and the Flying Feather Sect.

There are twenty-seven second-rate sects, and there are thousands of other sects of cultivating immortals, large and small, and there are many immortal cultivation families and hermit families, and the number of Lan Ling'er is not clear, but this information is enough for Wei Xilin to digest well.

Wei Xilin came to Orchid Village, with all her heart to feed herself, work hard to grow up, and go out to see it when she has the opportunity, plus the place where she lives is a little remote, so she usually has close contact with Aunt Li's family. The children in the village don't play with her much, and she doesn't bother to waste time with a group of little kids, she tries to find food every day, but she can't help it, and her appetite is too big.

It wasn't until she said goodbye to Lan Ling'er that Wei Xilin came back to her senses, and it seemed that she agreed to Xiao Lingzi's request to go to Lanyu Town to test the spiritual root and participate in the selection of disciples by the Qingyun Sect.

Shaking her head, Wei Xilin comforted herself, maybe Xiao Lingzi is not talking about cultivating immortals, maybe it is like a sect like Maoshan Taoist.

After Lan Linger made an appointment with her, she came to the door early the next morning, pulled Wei Xilin out of the thatched house, and a bullock cart was parked outside the fence, and it was Lan Ling'er's father Lan Dong who pulled the cow, and said hello to Lan Dong, and when she asked Aunt Li, she knew that Aunt Li wanted to take care of Lan Yiqiu, and she didn't follow this time.

The ox cart staggered for five days before it reached Lanyu Town, it was already dark, the town gate had long been closed, and everyone could not, so they had to spend the night outside the town.

Early the next morning, the ox cart slowly entered the town, Wei Xilin sat on the ox cart, watching the people coming and going, very lively, with a trace of confusion and apprehension in her heart.

The quaint street buildings really feel like you are in a strange ancient time.

Lanyu Town is said to be a town, in fact, it covers an area similar to a modern big city, at this time the town is crowded, there are many children and boys and girls, and there are many adults who accompany them.

I heard that the Qingyun Sect selects disciples in the cities and towns it designates every ten years, and they must be between the ages of six and fifteen and pass the spiritual root test before they can enter the sect.

Of course, the good spiritual root will directly enter the inner door, a little worse in the outer door, and the very poor can also do the sect miscellaneous labor, although the life will be a little harder, but it is also close to the threshold of cultivating immortals, and if you are lucky, you will have a bright day.

Lan Dong drove the ox cart to the place where the car was parked, and took Wei Xilin and Lan Ling'er to the center of the town with the flow of people, a square the size of five football fields, and a circle of guards around the outside of the square, which was full of children who were going to take the test.

Oops! It's even more spectacular than the Olympics!

They moved slowly for a long time before they came to the guard circle, Lan Dong was stopped, and Wei Xilin had no choice but to go in with Lan Ling'er.

Looking at Lan Dong's nervous and honest face, Wei Xilin remembered the scene of the modern college entrance examination and the parents waiting nervously outside the school, pitiful parents all over the world!

was sighing, feeling that her hand was being pulled tightly, and she looked at Lan Ling'er suspiciously, only to see that her face was sweating, her lips were still trembling, and she was obviously nervous to the peak.

Wei Xilin hurriedly pulled her hand down, held it gently, and said in a calm voice: "Little Lingzi, don't be nervous, you will definitely be chosen."

"Xilin, you don't understand, I really want to be selected, I heard that the people who are selected will have a sum of money to send to their families, my family is so poor, my father and mother bought this dress for this test, they don't want me to be too shabby and looked down upon."

As soon as the words fell, Lan Ling'er's eyes gathered tears, but she couldn't bear it.

Wei Xilin sighed, hugged Lan Ling'er in her arms, patted her back gently, felt the wetness on her shoulders, and her eyes crossed with pity.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, you just have to remember that your father and mother are good to you, everything you have done for you, whether you are chosen or not, you must be filial to them."

"Well, I know, thank you, Xilin."

Lan Linger's hoarse voice came from her left shoulder, Wei Xilin's expression was soft, and she continued to gently pat Lan Linger's back.

When Lan Ling'er calmed down, the two chatted, most of them were Lan Ling'er talking about her brother's interesting things, and Wei Xilin listened with a smile.

After half an hour, the surroundings suddenly quieted down, Wei Xilin looked at the people beside him suspiciously, only to see that they all raised their heads to the sky in unison, and looked strangely at everyone's sight, Wei Xilin's pupils widened.

Oops! What the hell is this? What's going on with those Edgeworth flying? Could it really be the world of cultivating immortals? Make no mistake!

The slightest bit of luck that she originally had disappeared in an instant, Wei Xilin was extremely sad, is God playing with her? What about the ordinary life that is said to be good? What's going on? And let the unpleasant life go!

The thunder was rolling in his heart, until a loud male voice seemed to sound in his ears.

"The selection of disciples by the Qingyun Sect has officially begun, everyone is numbered correctly, it is forbidden to make noise, and if there are violators, the test qualification will be cancelled directly."

The distance was so far that it was impossible to see who was speaking, and the huge square was suddenly silent, and everyone was cautious, not even daring to breathe too loudly.

Wei Xilin and Lan Ling'er were at the bottom of the line, they didn't know the previous test, they could only vaguely hear surprises and crying, it seemed that some people were happy and some were worried.

In the evening, a white light lit up all around, illuminating the entire square, the light was not strong, and this light could better see the test light of the spirit bead.

Looking up at the ball of light suspended in mid-air, I couldn't figure out what it was, the world of cultivating immortals was really wonderful.

The people who had tested in front were all arranged to leave, and those who didn't pass also left gloomily, looking at the only ten or so people in front of them, and they were about to come to themselves, and they were a little nervous for no reason.

Since she knew that this was the world of cultivating immortals, Wei Xilin still hoped that she could have a spiritual root, after all, ordinary people were like ants in the eyes of immortals, and if she wanted to survive, she had to become stronger, and she didn't want her life to be out of control.

Finally, it was Lan Ling'er's turn to test, and she was in the row in front of Wei Xilin.

A young and handsome man sat behind the table and motioned for Lan Ling'er to put his palm on the array of spiritual beads on the table, which was only the size of an adult's palm, with ancient patterns engraved on it, and the spiritual beads in the middle were only the size of tennis balls, and the transparent beads looked like ordinary glass beads.

I saw Lan Ling'er raise her trembling right hand and put her palm on the spirit bead, and within a moment, the bead emitted a faint reddish-green luster.

"Well, it's good, it's a medium fire wood twin spirit root, and the qualifications are good."

The man's eyes flashed with a gleam, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and the medium-qualified Fire Wood Twin Spirits could barely enter the inner door.

Lan Ling'er covered her lips with her hands and almost screamed happily, but fortunately she still knew the occasion, and looked back at Wei Xilin in surprise.

Wei Xilin was also very happy, and whispered her congratulations, and saw that Lan Ling'er was picked up by the sect's envoy.

Finally it was Wei Xilin's turn to test, Wei Xilin took a deep breath, raised her right hand, and gently placed it on the spirit bead, and after ten seconds, the spirit bead did not respond.

The man looked at it, and was about to let the next one continue, when the spirit bead gradually turned milky white, the color became more and more intense, and it also emitted a strong white light, which was particularly dazzling in this night, and instantly illuminated the surroundings.

The man stood up in shock, moved too quickly and brought the stool to the ground, making a snapping sound, and everyone around him quickly looked over, one by one with shock and curiosity.

Eh, Wei Xilin was so frightened that she retracted her hand, what's going on? What's the situation now, don't look at her like this, okay, she has a little pressure, okay, isn't it just to let the spirit bead become a light bulb, and she can use it so shockingly? Look, those eyes are going to pop out.

Seeing the man's handsome face turn stupid, Wei Xilin shook his head, this person is sick and can be cured!

In the crookedness, a surprised male voice came.

"All the spiritual roots, it's actually the best full spiritual roots, my God!"

When Wei Xilin heard the voice, she saw a man in a purple robe suddenly appear next to the stupid man, the man was very handsome, and his bright starry eyes were even brighter like stars at the moment, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

As soon as he looked at the man's dress, he knew that he was an elite disciple of the sect, and he had heard from the people around him when he was waiting in the square that the color of the clothes of the disciples of the Qingyun Sect was divided.

Miscellaneous disciples are black, outer disciples are green, inner disciples are blue, elite disciples are white, and pro-descendant elite disciples are purple.

It stands to reason that being looked at by such a man will make ordinary people blush and heartbeat, but Wei Xilin doesn't feel anything.

Looking at such a face, I unconsciously remembered the face of the ice beauty in my mind, well, it is still the ice beauty that is more beautiful.
