Chapter 2: The Immortals Chose Disciples
I don't know if it's because of the so-called immortal selection of apprentices, along the way, she met a lot of people who led children to the town, all of them looked excited, and they were all discussing things like the arrival of immortals and the selection of apprentices. Zhu Yao silently admired the appeal of this magic stick, which actually made so many people believe in him.
Zhujia Village is actually not far from the market, and they have already arrived at the city gate after half an hour's walk, because there are too many people entering the city, she has to hold the little child's hand to prevent getting lost. The little kid rarely didn't resist at this time, but only symbolically struggled twice, and quietly let Zhu Yao pull forward. But the little face still stinks.
finally came to the place of the recruitment, only to see that it was already crowded with people. A high platform was set up in the middle of the crowd, and there were four people standing on it, all dressed in white clothes, and the corners of the clothes were embroidered with auspicious cloud-like lines, which was very fairy-like bones. The four people who were unexpectedly young were all young, and they were much more pleasing to the eye than the white-bearded old man that Zhu Yao imagined.
Zhu Yao silently gave the other party a thumbs up in his heart, he didn't expect this magic stick to be quite professional, just look at this uniform costume and know that people are definitely organized and disciplined. With this pomp, it is no wonder that so many people can be frightened to watch.
There was a long line of people on the right side of the platform, and although the crowd was male and female, each adult had one or two children next to him, ranging in age from those who had just learned to walk to those who were half a person tall. But most of them are under the age of ten. Zhu Yao guessed that this was probably the team that signed up, although she didn't have much interest in such an obviously cheating activity, but Uncle Wang's explanation had to be completed, anyway, it wasn't her money that was cheated, so she stood at the back of the team without hesitation.
The little kid was obedient this time, and stood with her obediently, and just now he had a stinky little face, but now he had changed to an expectant expression, and from time to time he stretched his neck and stared at the front of the team. Children are always curious about new things.
After a while, among the four people on the stage, a middle-aged man stood up and took a few steps forward and cleared his throat: "Everyone, today, on the day when my Qiugu Sect accepts apprentices once every ten years, there are no restrictions on men and women, and there is no restriction on background, please come forward in turn to test." β
This person was so simple, Zhu Yao thought that he was indispensable to make a long fuss, but he didn't expect such a sentence to start directly. can't help but make Zhu Yao a little curious, what kind of bullish a god stick organization this is.
"First place!" The middle-aged man spoke up, only to see a woman in the first place, holding a child in one hand. A young white-clothed immortal on the stage waved his hand. I saw a crystal ball suddenly appear in Taichung. There was an exclamation from the people on stage.
The young man's expression remained unchanged, and he said coldly to the two children on the stage: "Put your hands on it!" β
The two children took a step back with some fear, and in the end, it was the child's mother who pushed the two of them behind their backs: "What are you afraid of, if you are chosen, you will ascend to the sky in one step, hurry up, go up!" β
The two children then pressed their little hands on the floating ball, but unfortunately there was no change in the ball.
The middle-aged man in white shook his head and said, "There is no spiritual root, the next one." β
The woman sighed, and there was a few expressions of disappointment on her face, but she didn't argue, and took a pair of children off the stage.
Zhu Yao was a little blind, this scene was ...... Why do you feel a little familiar? Rub, isn't this a common scene of selecting people in the Xiuxian text? A scene that will appear at the beginning of each Immortal Cultivation Text, Soul Measuring Root! She has been crossing the farming literature by herself, and she has lived a little bit of a field in the people's spring all her life. Judging from the current situation, is she going to take the Xianxia line? But...... Zhu Yao looked at himself, and then looked at the row of small radishes squatting in front of him, uh...... Was she in too much of a hurry? At the age of 28, she went to cultivate immortals, even if she climbed, she couldn't climb this group of little radish heads!
For the first time since the crossing, Zhu Yao was deeply sad.
"Hey, hey, hey......" Zhu Yao's hand sank, and when he turned his head to look, he realized that the little kid next to him was just pulling him.
"What?" Do not tickle those who are shining and grieving.
The little kid pointed to the high platform in front of him and said, "Let's go, it's going to be our turn soon." β
Only then did Zhu Yao realize that there was already a large amount of vacancy in front, and he hurriedly took the little kid to pick up the team.
The speed of measuring the spiritual root is very fast, but unfortunately most of the children do not have a spiritual root, and the middle-aged man also repeated over and over again: "No spiritual root, the next one." "A large number of children went up, but there were only three or four children left on the stage. And they are all four spirit roots, five spirit roots. The expressions of the four people in the stands are not very good.
"Next!"
I saw a dirty and poor child climb up, he was so thin that he seemed to fall down when he blew it, and his clothes were even more tattered, and he couldn't find a complete place, and he was not accompanied by an adult, obviously a little beggar. The people below covered their noses involuntarily, and there was a bit of disgust.
But the expressions of the four people on the stage remained unchanged. It was as if I couldn't see the child's embarrassment. They have cultivated immortals for many years and never judge people by their appearance. Today's persecution, who knows that tomorrow's people will not soar into the sky?
The middle-aged man pointed to the ball on the table, "Put your hand on it!" β
Although the child was dirty, he didn't care about other people's eyes at all, walked straight to the center of the field, and pressed his hand up. I saw that the ball that was still transparent just now slowly appeared a green light, and when it was about to occupy the entire ball, another golden light flashed until it filled a ball.
"Golden Wood Twin Spirit Roots!" The three young men sitting in the back suddenly stood up at the same time, and the expressions on their faces that were still indifferent just now changed in an instant. looked at the down-and-out boy with a happy face.
"I didn't expect to meet the disciple of the Twin Spirit Roots this year!" The four of them nodded at the same time, and even their tones were very polite, Shuanglinggen, this is the person who will definitely be selected to enter the inner gate, "This little junior brother, please go to the side to rest first, and when today's test is over, you can wait with me to return to the faction." β
The little beggar nodded, and his strange little face did not have the same expression of surprise as the four of them, but obediently stood next to the children who had stayed. It was as if he had expected such a thing.
Zhu Yao glanced at the little beggar with a calm face, and instantly had a strange feeling, and he couldn't say it, so he felt that something was wrong.
"We're next!" The little kid next to him didn't infect Zhu Yao's love at all, but took her hand excitedly.
"Next!"
"It's our turn!" The little kid pulled her and ran excitedly to the stage. There was no nervousness at all, and he pressed it directly on the ball.
Zhu Yao looked down at the little kid next to her, and then looked at the little beggar in the stands, she kind of understood, it seems that the fewer spiritual roots, the better, but the double spiritual roots are so amazing, I don't know what will happen to the single spiritual root?
As he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a commotion around him. Even the four white-clothed immortals who had just stood far away gathered around her, looking at her in disbeliefβthe little kid beside her.
"Heavenly ...... Heavenly Spirit Root! The middle-aged man, who couldn't even speak, snatched the child in her hand and made a gesture to pick it up, "It's actually a fire attribute heavenly spirit root!" β
"Hey, hey, what are you doing?" Zhu Yaoyi is nervous, and it doesn't matter if they are real immortals or fake immortals, they have to rob the child. If she loses this little brat, Dr. Wang will not be able to stab her to death when she turns around! With a fierce blow, the little fart child was snatched back, and the traffickers died far away!
The little kid was also a little frightened, and threw himself into her arms to hide.
Only then did the four of them come back to their senses, looking at Zhu Yao's protective look, or the middle-aged man coughed and said: "The girl misunderstood, I waited until I saw a rare talent for a thousand years to get excited, your child, but there is no spiritual root in ten thousand." β
You must know that Mo said that it was the Qiu Gu Sect, even if it was a person who had not produced a Heavenly Spirit Root in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm for thousands of years. As soon as this child returns, he must be the personal disciple of the elders, can they not be excited?
The corners of Zhu Yao's mouth twitched, and he was instantly hit by the words: "Your child", and he fell to the ground. Does she seem to have such a big baby? Recall the reproductive age in ancient times, well, is a little bit like.
"He's not my child!" This must be made clear.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, looked Zhu Yao up and down, and frowned slightly.
Hey, hey, what's the deal with your trafficker-looking face? "I was commissioned by his parents to bring him here." You're a trafficker, bastard!
The middle-aged man nodded clearly, but he was still a little skeptical: "This son's spiritual root is superior, and he will be successful in the future, we will stay here for a day, and then say goodbye to our parents, and it will be too late." β
Who knows if you left the child to be abducted and sold, no, he has to take the little kid back quickly.
"The immortal is saying that I was chosen?" At the critical moment, the little kid came out, saw the four people nodding, and instantly got out of Zhu Yao's arms, and before she could react, she had already happily stood in the middle of the selected row of children. While running, I had to say that it was great.
Pig-like teammates! Zhu Yao silently raised a black line. But fortunately, they will stay for a day, and then hand over the little child to Dr. Wang, and it will be none of her business.
I had no choice but to take two steps back with the little kid, looked at the little kid who was already excited to chat with the other children, and sighed silently.
"Don't be too sad!" The little kid seemed to notice her low mood, and suddenly leaned over, took her hand and said, "Don't worry, I just asked the four uncles, and they said that I can take someone to Xianmen." I'll take you with me for granted! βγ
Zhu Yao was stunned for a moment, and looked suspiciously at the child on the ground who was only half her height, this little kid was going to take her to Xianmen, when did he become so considerate?
