......

In the early morning, Ouyang Nuo just opened his eyes and found that Chen Ze, who was sleeping in a friendly suit, was no longer there, and he was a little flustered.

"It's breakfast. At this time, Chen Ze walked in with a bowl of porridge.

"Thank you!" Ouyang Nuo has never felt the care of others, since he can remember, he has been taking care of his mother, and suddenly being taken care of by others, the feeling of being held up to the sky in his heart spreads.

After breakfast, the two of them packed up their things and went to the Taiqing Sect to recruit disciples for the assessment.

Taiqing Sect came to two elders, several inner disciples of the sect, Taiqing Sect's assessment location chose the largest inn in the town, the inn has already been cleared by the Taiqing Sect, the chef of the back kitchen in the entire inn, the shopkeeper and the boss in the corner of the hall, there are no extra people, but the door of the inn has long been blocked, this is an opportunity for ordinary people to change their fate, if they enter the sect, not only themselves, but even their own family is a promotion, if you can enter the inner door, it is a matter of glory to the ancestors.

"So many people?!" When Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo came to the inn, they didn't have a chance to see the situation inside the inn at all.

"The Taiqing Sect has not recruited disciples like this for a long time, I heard my mother say that the last time the Taiqing Sect recruited disciples like this, it was thirty years ago, everyone squeezed their heads and wanted to enter the three major sects, even if they were outer disciples in the three major sects, the status of those small sects as inner disciples was higher. Ouyang Nuo was on tiptoe, looking towards the inn, and explained to Chen Ze.

"What about the Five Elements Sect compared to the three major sects?!" Chen Ze remembered that when he first came to the town, he met the young man who had whipped himself to the ground, and asked casually.

"Where is the Five Elements Sect qualified to compare with the three major sects, he can only be regarded as the more powerful in the small sects!" A middle-aged man on the side heard Chen Ze's words, sneered at the three major sects, and said disdainfully.

"Uncle, are you going to accompany your child to participate in the assessment of the Taiqing Sect?!" Chen Ze tilted his head to look at the middle-aged man and asked with a smile.

"Am I that old? Call my brother! I'll take the assessment myself!" the middle-aged man looked towards the hall of the inn just like Ouyang Nuo, and said in a somewhat unkind tone.

Chen Ze shrugged his shoulders and didn't pay attention to the middle-aged man.

"I am the elder of the Taiqing Sect, Zhang Hecheng, and the elder next to me, Qin Heyu, who is also the elder of the Taiqing Sect, is responsible for the assessment of the disciples recruited this time. "There was a loud and loud voice, and everyone knew that this voice carried vitality, but the vitality it carried could not hurt everyone, it just raised the voice and spread it more widely.

It was also at this point that more than a dozen disciples of the Taiqing Sect began to maintain order on the scene, leaving a passage at the door of the inn, and everyone waited in line.

"All those over the age of twelve are leaving!" The thick and loud voice sounded again, Chen Ze pulled Ouyang Nuo to stand at the front of the crowd, looked towards the inn hall, and saw that the person who spoke had a calm demeanor, and his appearance was just like the middle-aged man who was talking to Chen Ze just now.

As soon as Zhang Hecheng's words fell, people left in the crowd one after another, and the number of people guarding the door of the inn was less in an instant.

"I left with a disability. Zhang Hecheng's voice sounded again, and a small part of the crowd left.

Subsequently, the people at the door entered the inn hall one after another to accept the assessment, that is, at the beginning of the assessment, Qin Heyu disappeared.

This is when Chen Ze learned that the assessment is divided into two parts: the preliminary examination and the re-examination, the initial examination of a group of six people will be assessed by Zhang Hecheng, and the re-examination of a group of two will be assessed by Qin Heyu.

This assessment lasted for a long time, from the early morning Ze and Ouyang Nuo to the moment when the sun was about to set, there were still nearly half of the people waiting for the assessment.

"You, you, you ......" The inner disciple in charge of calling people casually pointed to six people and called these six people into the inn, including Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo.

Zhang Hecheng looked at the six people with a serious face, his gaze paused slightly on Chen Ze's face, and asked solemnly, "Why did you choose this path of cultivation. ”

Some people replied that it was to save the common people, some said that it was to do the right thing for heaven, and even more said that in order to serve the country, it was incomparably false and empty.

Zhang Hecheng listened to everyone's answers and didn't say anything, looked at Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo, who didn't speak, and asked, "What do you think?"

"I want to become stronger, to protect the people I want to protect, and to make the people who bully me pay!" Chen Ze clenched his fists, frowned, and heard the scene of Liu Wuwu being taken away by the Fang family master and being chased and killed by the Fang family's guards, when he turned his head to look at Ouyang Nuo, his expression relaxed slightly, and he said with a slight smile.

"I think Chenze will be able to stand in front of him when he needs my protection. Chen Ze can be regarded as Ouyang Nuo's only relative, Ouyang Nuo pulled Chen Ze's sleeve, his voice was not loud, but he said with great certainty.

The answer of the two caused merciless ridicule from the other four people who faced the assessment together, Zhang Hecheng frowned slightly, looked at the four people, and the four of them did not dare to breathe for an instant.

"You two go up to the second floor!" Zhang Hecheng handed Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo a wooden card and instructed softly.

Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo were just about to walk when they heard what Zhang Hecheng said to the other four, "The most taboo thing in cultivation is dishonesty, so you will lose your original intention, you dare to say that your cultivation is not to glorify the lintel? not to live a better life? not to let others bully you? you go out and call the next group of people!" The latter words should be said to the inner disciples.

Chen Ze took Ouyang Nuo to the second floor of the inn, and saw Qin Heyu eating sauced beef and drinking his daughter red, he was slightly surprised, Zhang Hecheng was extremely serious before, but Qin Heyu was extremely chic at this moment.

"There is a girl, come here, sit down and drink!" Qin Heyu saw Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo coming up, and saw Ouyang Nuo was slightly surprised, and looked at Chen Ze and greeted.

Chen Ze didn't see it until he sat opposite Qin Heyu, picked up a piece of sauced beef with chopsticks and threw it into his mouth, picked up Qin Heyu's drinking cup and poured it up, Ouyang Nuo stood behind Chen Ze without saying a word.

"It's a little spicy!" Chen Ze returned the wine glass to Qin Heyu, sandwiched a piece of sauce beef again, and muttered without waiting for the sauce beef to swallow.

"Haha......" Qin Zeyu raised his head and laughed before he slowly spoke, "This character is in line with my heart, those boys are only afraid to come, I like it!"

"Then you continue to assess!" Chen Ze tilted his head, grinned, and said to Qin Heyu.

"I also heard about Senior Brother's culture when I first came here, let me ask you if you have already achieved something in your cultivation, what is the first thing you want to do?" Qin Heyu did not dislike Chen Ze for using his own wine glass, and asked with a sip.

"Rescue my mother first, and then go to the guards who want to kill me to take revenge, how the master of the Fang family deals with me is arranged by my mother. Chen Ze didn't think about it, and blurted out, and it could be seen that these words were the truest thoughts in Chen Ze's heart.

"What about you?" After Qin Heyu listened to Chen Ze's words, he looked at Ouyang Nuo and asked.

"Where is Chen Ze, where am I!" Ouyang Nuo also blurted out without hesitation.

"Come here at noon tomorrow, follow me to the Taiqing Sect, and strive to bring you over and become my disciple!" Qin Heyu threw a piece of jade pendant to Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo, and continued to instruct, "Remember to drip blood, without a drop of blood, the jade pendant cannot be activated, and you cannot enter the gate of my sect!"

"Is this the end?" Chen Ze felt that the assessment of the Taiqing Sect was too simple, and asked curiously.

"First, I asked you to sit down, you were not afraid, proving that you can withstand big things, second, you picked up my wine glass and drank, and did not use the wine glass in front of you, proving that you have a strong sense of self-protection, third, you did not let Ouyang Nuo sit down, indicating that you want to protect her, fourth, the first thing you did to save your mother shows that you have filial piety, fifth, you remember the person who killed you, you hold grudges, you don't remember anyone's grudges, how to remember gratitude, sixth, for the Fang family, you choose to let your mother decide, if my guess is right, this Fang family master is the one who arrested your mother, which shows that you have a clear priority。 Qin Heyu picked up the hand of the sauced beef and listened to the air, one by one.

Chen Ze's face was full of surprise, in a short period of time, a few actions and a few words, Qin Zeyu analyzed so much, people had to admire.

"That...... Then can you take Nuo'er over as your disciple?!" Chen Ze scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly and asked cheekily.

"Haha, okay! activate the jade pendant first, it's bad if someone snatches it!" Qin Heyu replied with a smile.

Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo did not hesitate to bite their fingers and drip blood on the white jade pendant, and there was an instant red vein in the center of the jade pendant.

Looking at the backs of Chen Ze and Ouyang Nuo leaving, Qin Heyu muttered: "It is worthy of being a person who can play tricks for Chang Yunzi's apprentices, and his heart is higher than ordinary people!"
