Chapter 5: The Sun City Test
The smell of blood grew heavier in the air, and the convoy turned around the pass. Lin Xi, who was sitting in the car, happened to see the valley mouth not far away. Several soldiers of the Zhenbei Army were cleaning the battlefield, the ground was full of corpses, and the unique smell of human blood was already smoking.
"Alas, this world of killing a thousand knives, look at this pretend, this is a ruffian from Chen Guo's side, who came to rob the caravan. I happened to meet the Zhenbei Army. ”
"Poof~" There was a strange sound, and the dog was about to turn around to look, but Lao Li grabbed Lin Xi with a quick hand.
"Don't look at it, kid. The empire judges military merit by head, you are still young and don't have nightmares at night. Lao Litou's kindness made Lin Xi's heart warm, and this cold world didn't seem to be so bad.
Armies are the same killing machines no matter where they are. The soldiers moved skillfully, in groups of three, two with spears and one with knives and axes, advancing slowly. The front mends the knife and the back is beheaded, and then the face is expressionless and sent to the waist. The Wuyang Empire judged military merits by heads, and all the heads had to be brought back to the camp, and they were concocted with lime and reported layer by layer. In northern Xinjiang, the heads of horse thieves and bandits eventually had only one place to go - the human head Jingguan in front of the unloading pavilion.
After seeing this short killing, Lao Li Tou had no interest in speaking. The team marched slowly, and the convoy calmly followed the Zhenbei army in front, and there were no more stupid thieves who didn't open their eyes to send them to death.
Two days later, the team finally arrived at Sun City. Looking at the famous city in northern Xinjiang in front of him, the bustling crowd. There is an endless stream of business travelers, and there are guys from the local chamber of commerce who have come to greet them. When the time came to separate, Lin Xi reluctantly exchanged cherishes with Lao Li Tou and walked towards the city gate.
"Two big brothers, may I ask where is the entrance test of the Iron Spear Gate in Wuyang City. Lin Xi bowed to the two soldiers defending the city.
"Are you here to take the entrance test?Can someone recommend it?" Looking at Lin Xi's sackcloth, the two didn't want to deal with it, but they listened to the matter of the iron gun door that he asked, and their faces looked much better.
"I wanted to try it and no one recommended it. Lin Xi was a little timid.
"I see, you come with me and see how lucky our brothers are today!" one of the soldiers motioned for Lin Xi to follow, it turned out that every year during the entrance test of the Iron Spear Gate, General Xu would issue a reward. For those who have no recommendation for registration from other places like Lin Xi, the city gate guards and city guards will attract one person to participate, and as long as they pass, they will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver.
"Little brother, when you enter the fairy gate, don't forget your brother to lead the way! The soldier half-jokingly reminded.
"I don't know my eldest brother's surname?"
"What's not expensive, my surname is Niu Dali. If you can afford me, just call me Brother Dali. By the way, what is your name, look at your appearance is also from a bitter background. ”
"My name is Lin Xi. ”
The two talked as they walked, and after a while, they came to a school field, and Lin Xi looked around curiously. Niu Dali took the dog to sign up with him, and Lin Xi began to feel uneasy in his heart. If you can't pass the test, do you want to go back to that hell on earth......
Niu Dali didn't think so much, and helped Lin Xi sign up, and then took Lin Xi to participate in the test. There is a wide pergola in the center of the school field, and when Lin Xi followed Niu Dali, there were already many people queuing, and Niu Dali kept greeting acquaintances. The apprehension in Lin Xi's heart made him almost run away, and he tried his best to control himself.
At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in a dark robe appeared in front of everyone in a flash.
"See Elder Wu!" the busy Iron Spear Sect disciples in the pergola saluted in unison. Only then did everyone come to their senses and hurriedly follow the salute.
"Everyone, excuse me!" Elder Wu Chengfeng Wu is a fourth-generation disciple of the Iron Spear Sect. It is said that there has been a cultivation in the infancy period, but in recent years, it has encountered a bottleneck in cultivation, so it is out of the customs and ready to travel to the four directions. Coincidentally, his senior brother, Xu Tianyi, the general of the Zhenbei Army, pulled Zhuang Ding to Lieyang City to take a look at this year's entrance test by the way.
"Go ahead, I'm just coming to see. After Wu Chengfeng finished speaking, he really found a chair, sat down, and took out a folding fan out of nowhere to play with it in his hand. Disciple below, look at me, let me look at you, a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties stepped forward and said helplessly.
"There are no injuries in Xialu, and he is a disciple of the sixth generation of the Iron Spear Gate. I will host the introductory test of Sun City. This test is divided into two sessions". After speaking, he took out a piece of crystal clear spirit jade in his arms, showed it to everyone, and then said: "This is a piece of Kunlun spirit jade, which can test the spiritual root of mortals. You will step forward in turn, drop a drop of blood on your fingertips, and those who excel can be directly admitted. Those who barely pass can enter the next level, and those who are eliminated may go to the recruitment office of the Zhenbei Army outside the scene to try. ”
"May I ask the Immortal Master, what is an excellent person?" a young man in a Confucian robe asked boldly.
Lu Wuxian wanted to attack, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Wu Chengfeng next to him and said: "There are innate five elements spirit roots in the world, and there are five variant spirit roots of electricity, ice, scenery, and darkness, a total of eleven kinds. Where the variant attribute spirit root is heterogeneous, the single attribute spirit root is excellent, the double attribute is medium, the third attribute can be passed, and the rest of the iron gun door cannot be included... Let's start testing!".
Everyone lined up to step forward, this is the choice of fate. You can't practice without a spiritual root, and stepping into the immortal gate is a new beginning. No matter how unbearable it was before, in the eyes of the world, it has since become a phoenix. Have a child of the Immortal Sect
This is the guarantee to ensure the survival of the family. The Wuyang Empire was supported by a number of immortal sects, so this kind of thinking became a public opinion in the Wuyang Empire. The emperor of flowing water, the family of iron. There have been many changes in the throne, and the eight great families with the backing of the great immortal sect have not moved.
"Liu Feng, the four spirit roots are eliminated!".
"Give me another chance!!As long as I can enter the Immortal Gate, I can do anything!" Liu Feng's voice made everyone in the audience feel a kind of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
"Alas, this is innate, and I can't contain it with an iron gun! After Lu Wuxian finished speaking, he motioned to his disciple to pull him out.
"Li Tianhang, Sanlinggen will go to the side first to prepare for the next level. ”
"Tian Moxue, the best ice spirit root!!, Miss Tian will go down to rest first, and then return to the mountain gate with us. ”
Tian Moxue, the eldest lady of the Tian family in Lieyang City. It took four generations for the Tian family to gain a foothold in Lieyang City, but they didn't expect this generation to arrive. came out with an unscrupulous son, Tian Siye, the eldest young master of the Tian family. Linger in the fireworks and willow alleys all day long, fighting with others. A few days ago, I finally got into trouble. For the sake of a prostitute, he accidentally injured someone's life, but it was the second young master of the Wang family, a big family in Lieyang City, who was killed. The Wang family was willing to give up, and they were locked up and taken out of prison on the same day. The family business was either forcibly seized or secretly squeezed for a few days. The hard work of several generations will be in vain, and this entry test is also the last straw for the Tian family.
The best ice spirit root, Lu Wu was sad and secretly happy. With this foundation, you can also think about the rewards for introducing newcomers this year. Sipin asked Daodan, with its own cultivation that had stayed in the middle stage of foundation building for more than ten years, it could also go further. Thinking of this, the eyes that looked at Tian Moxue became even gentler.
