Chapter 16: The Real Test

"Great, Senior Sister Xie, then I'll take you to lunch now!" Hearing Xie Zhaolin's words, the little boy was obviously very happy and led her to the dining hall. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

There was no one in the dining hall, the silence was a little scary, Xie Zhaolin touched his stomach a little uneasily, thinking that it wouldn't be, did he not catch lunch in the end?

That's miserable, the old man of Yueqing said that if you miss lunch, you will have to wait until the evening!

Although the old man Yue Qing sometimes speaks and does things to give people a feeling of unreliability, he never says lies.

Up to now, the Xuanyang faction can't bring people to wait, and we have confirmed all these words one by one, so at that time, Xie Zhaolin believed his words in his heart, and he didn't dare to delay at all when he climbed the mountain, for fear that he wouldn't be able to catch lunch.

The little boy looked accustomed to seeing the empty canteen, and after looking around, he began to shout: "Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang!"

Before he finished speaking, a tall and thin man who looked like a teacher in the school came out to answer.

It turns out that the cooking master can also grow like this! Xie Zhaolin tilted his head to look at him, feeling very novel.

"Uncle Wang, I've brought my junior sister to dinner."

"Oh, you know, I deliberately left a few extra chicken legs! The little girl is so thin, she really needs to eat a little more. "This Uncle Wang is very enthusiastic.

Under Uncle Wang's courteous greeting, Xie Zhaolin was finally able to sit down and eat a hot mouthful, in order to hurry, she had been in the car to nibble on a few bites of dry food bought by the old man of Yueqing, and occasionally there was meat to eat, and it was already cold.

"Senior brother, aren't you going to eat?" Xie Zhaolin swallowed a mouthful of food, and looked at the little boy sitting on the side watching her eat with some apologies, feeling that people were hungry for themselves.

"Oh, I've already eaten, so I can rest early thanks to your blessing, senior sister. And my surname is Xia, my name is Chengen, junior sister, you can call me senior brother Chengen. Xia Chengen waved his hand to show that Xie Zhaolin was worried.

Seeing that Xie Zhaolin nodded and continued to pick up the dishes, he added with a smile: "Senior sister, just eat slowly, when you are full, I will take you to bathe and change your clothes."

So Xie Zhaolin's action of picking vegetables stopped in mid-air.

She heard her right! I'll take you to the shower and change your clothes?!

However, she is a girl, and the other party is a boy, even if she is just waiting at the door, it is embarrassing!

Xia Chengen naturally knew that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, I mean, I'll take you to my senior sister's bath and change clothes."

Because of this little episode, the two of them were quiet for the rest of the day, and they didn't say a word until the meal was over.

……

A small chamber was foggy at the moment, and its source was the barrel next to it.

A wooden bucket for bathing, filled with water, steaming water, but there were no flower petals floating in the water, and standing next to the bath bucket was not a beautiful woman with undressed, skin like clotted fat, and a graceful figure, but a little girl in a white single dress.

Xie Zhaolin was holding the coat given by her senior sister Lu Qilan who brought her here.

This, how did it seem to be different from the few Xuanyang sect people she had seen?

"Miss Xie, have you washed it?" Lu Qilan's voice sounded at the door, with a little impatience, and she even slapped the door.

Xie Zhaolin looked at the bath water that was still steaming, and felt that she hadn't washed it for long, why was it annoying?

But seeing that the next urging was coming again, she hurriedly answered: "It's all right."

As soon as she finished speaking, as soon as the door "creaked", Lu Qilan walked in, she didn't look at Xie Zhaolin, she waved her hand behind her, and two tall women walked in, each carrying two empty wooden barrels in their hands.

Xie Zhaolin looked at the clothes worn by the two women, and then looked at the identical set in his hand, and was a little surprised.

"Miss Xie, you are new to the city, and you look powerless, so I asked the two aunts to help you. You can't just call them away, the aunts are all willing to come to the party to help, and a good intention can't be let down. This time is a special case, and you will have to come by yourself in the future. Lu Qilan stood on the side and watched the two of them carry out the used water, while not forgetting to preach to Xie Zhaolin.

"I see, senior sister." Xie Zhaolin responded obediently.

Who knew that Lu Qilan, who heard this, laughed instead, but it was a somewhat smug smile: "Miss Xie, I haven't even called you junior sister yet, you should call my senior sister first!" However, this senior sister is not something that anyone can call her!"

As she spoke, she turned and went out, but soon returned with a set of clothes in her hand. It was the one that Xie Zhaolin had seen in the disciples of the Xuanyang Sect.

Her eyes were fixed on Xie Zhaolin, who was still wearing a white single coat, for a while, and then she pointed at the clothes in her hand and spoke: "You haven't worn that coat for so long, it seems that you want to wear the one in my hand?" But I can tell you clearly, this outfit is not that easy to wear. Wear it, and you will be a disciple of my Xuanyang Sect. And to put it on, you have to memorize the lines on it!"

With a "brush" sound, Lu Qilan shook off her clothes, and the cyan robe was covered with a short robe, and the auspicious cloud patterns were wandering on it, unpredictable. But what really caught the eye was the white robe worn inside, the lines on it were irregular and intricate, and it was impossible to see what it was for a while.

"This embroidered on the outside is a topographic map of my Daxing Dynasty, which is not too difficult. And here is the map of Xuanyang Town, the streets and alleys, and the famous places of interest are all here. Your task is to write them down within seven days, and after seven days, draw and compare them in public, and if you make no more than five mistakes, you can join the faction. ”

Lu Qilan turned over the white robe again, and Xie Zhaolin found that there was actually a piece of brocade sewn inside, and the map inside was very precisely embroidered, which made people admire, but it was very difficult to write it down.

"Within seven days?"

"Yes, remember within seven days, and after seven days, I will draw silently in the hall, and then my Xuanyang Sect disciples will come in person to testify. If you pass this level, you will be able to become a disciple of the sect, and it will not be too late for you to call me Senior Sister in the future. After Lu Qilan's eyebrows fluttered, he left, leaving Xie Zhaolin alone to ponder in place.

"Division... Sister Lu, if I don't succeed... What will happen?"

"If so, you go back and forth from wherever you want. If you really want to stay, there is still a way to go, which is to put on the first set of clothes you got, and work in the pie like the two aunts just now, and you can also take care of your food and clothing. Lu Qilan's footsteps did not stop, and she said as she walked.

Is that so? Xie Zhaolin's heart sank, she came to the Xuanyang Sect to save her life and heal, can't she have a third identity?
