The Miscellaneous Church, both in terms of territory and the things it has to be responsible for, is far more numerous and cumbersome than the Twenty-Four Holy Churches. I thought that Elder Xia Qiqi, the head of the Miscellaneous Service Hall, was a bad old man, but when they met, what kind of bad old man was this, he was clearly a handsome and handsome man in white.

As the saying goes, a stranger is like a jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world, describing the Xia Seventeenth Elder in front of him. Dressed in white and wearing a light-colored gown, his face was fair and handsome. Holding a white folding fan, the whole person is like a piece of warm white jade. A slight smile is like a spring breeze, and it is the dream lover of many women.

Seeing Elder Xia Seventeen, Jiang Yuan forgot to give a salute for a while, and said to himself: "It's unreasonable, except for Yun Xi who is dressed as a man, I haven't seen anyone more handsome than me, this Elder Xia Seventeen should also be a woman dressed as a man." ”

"you, where are so many women dressed as men, they are full of masculinity, completely different from Mu Yunxi. And Jiang Yuan, you are too narcissistic, along the way, you are much more handsome than you. Let's not talk about anything else, Nangong Yunkai, Zhuge Junhao, and even the shape-shifting Red Gold Beast, which one is not more handsome than you. Yan'er teased.

"Ahem. Elder Xia Seventeen coughed lightly and reminded Jiang Yuan.

The brothers Hua Dacai and Tuesday Dog also kept wincing at Jiang Yuan, but Jiang Yuan had been immersed in his own world, and was amazed by Elder Xia Seventeen's appearance and didn't notice it.

"Jiang Yuan, what are you doing, hurry up and see Elder Xia Seventeen. Hua Dacai was helpless, so she could only gently poke Jiang Yuan with her hand as a reminder.

"Huh?" Jiang Yuan reacted at this time, and hurriedly bent down and clenched his fists and said, "Disciple Jiang Yuan...... I've seen Elder Xia Seventeen. ”

"The alchemy workshop has arrived, and these six branches of our miscellaneous service hall are complete, so hurry up and take a seat. Xia Qiqi waved his hand and pointed to a Taishi chair at the front of his left.

Judging from the sitting position, the status of the Alchemy Workshop in the Miscellaneous Service Hall is not low.

"Okay, now that everyone has arrived, let's talk about this newcomer entry assessment. This time, the entrance assessment is not much different from previous years, but the number of places has increased, from 531 last year to 533 this year. Xia Qiqi said with a serious face.

"Poof!"

Suddenly, a sneer came from nowhere, and the six deacons frowned in unison, their eyes converging in one direction.

Jiaoyu is covering her mouth and chuckling, she is already delicate and cute, and this smile adds a bit of charm.

Hua Dacai's face was ugly, and she glared back at her, but suddenly remembered that Jiaoyu's eyes were not good. Not only is his eyes bad, but he can't speak well, so his smile is a little weird.

"Hua Dacai, how do you educate your subordinates, so rude. Although Elder Xia Seventeen is kind to people on weekdays, he is also the supreme leader of our Miscellaneous Service Hall, and you don't care if your subordinates make such trouble. Li Xiaotuan, who was sitting opposite Hua Dacai, said unhappily.

This is not for Hua Dacai, it is completely because of the disrespect for Jiaoyu and Elder Xia Seventeen.

Hua Dacai turned around and said, "Jiaoyu, this is the main hall of the Miscellaneous Servant Hall, not our medicine refining workshop, so you can't do everything by temperament." Hurry up and apologize to Elder Xia Seventeen. ”

"No need. Xia Qiqi waved his hand and said, "This girl's name is Jiaoyu, right, I want to ask the girl, why did you laugh just now?"

Jiaoyu realized that she had caused trouble, and looked at Jiang Yuan with her eyes full of pleading, Jiang Yuan patted her fragrant shoulder and comforted her in a low voice: "It's okay, Elder Xia Seventeen doesn't look like a bad person, you have something to say." ”

"I'm ......" Jiaoyu pointed to his throat, his voice hoarse.

Jiang Yuan immediately understood what he meant, clasped his fists at Elder Xia Seventeen, and said, "Elder, Jiaoyu is injured for some reason, and it is not convenient for her to speak, can she tell me, and I will tell you on my behalf." ”

"Haha, yes. Xia Qiqi smiled with interest.

Jiaoyu told Jiang Yuan word by word, and after talking for a long time, Jiang Yuan listened to the meaning of this sentence completely. During this process, Xia Qiqi kept smiling at Jiang Yuan, although Jiang Yuan was talking to Jiaoyu, Yu Guang also looked at Xia Qiqi from time to time.

Being stared at and laughing by such a man always feels a little unnatural.

Jiang Yuan turned around and hugged his fist at Xia Qiqi, Xia Qiqi still had a smile on his face, and said, "Jiaoyu is finished, then you tell me why she is laughing." ”

"Elder Hui, Jiaoyu said...... Last year's five hundred and thirty-one people, this year's five hundred and thirty-three, an increase of two, can it be regarded as an improvement?" Jiang Yuan bowed his head and said.

"Hahaha. Before the words fell, Xia Qiqi laughed first, and when he laughed, Jiang Yuan was confused, and the second monk was confused.

What is he laughing at? Angry? Not like that.

"Elder, Jiaoyu left the house for the first time since she was a child, and her mind is the same as that of a child, and her words are unscrupulous, don't be angry when she says it. Jiang Yuan hurriedly explained.

Xia Qiqi waved his hand and said, "Naturally, I won't be angry with you, I want to ask Jiaoyu, do you think that the two places are very small, and they are not worth mentioning at all?"

Jiaoyu looked at Jiang Yuan with a panicked expression, Jiang Yuan nodded at her, she mustered up her courage, and also nodded at Elder Xia Seventeen.

Elder Xia Seventeen suddenly got up and walked towards Jiaoyu.

As soon as Xia Qiqi got up, everyone in the main hall didn't dare to sit down, and they immediately got up.

How strong Xia Qiqi is, Jiang Yuan doesn't know, but what he can be sure of is that he has no problem killing himself in seconds. But even so, Jiang Yuan still stubbornly took a step forward and stood in front of Jiaoyu.

"Haha, Jiang Yuan, don't be nervous. Xia Qiqi patted Jiang Yuan's shoulder, bypassed him, and walked to Jiaoyu's side.

Now Jiaoyu could only see a vague shadow, but he could feel a powerful momentum approaching, and subconsciously dodged backwards.

"Elder, if you have something to say, don't scare the young man. Hua Da Cai said.

"It doesn't matter. Xia Qiqi chuckled lightly and said, "Jiaoyu, Yanhuang Academy adheres to the Heavenly Dao, and the number of disciples recruited every year is five hundred and thirty-one, no more, no less. In previous years, even if there was one more person, it would have to be discussed by the ancestors of the academy, not to mention that there were two more people for no reason. ”

Jiaoyu's small mouth opened slightly, she had something in her heart, but she couldn't say it.

"This year, there are two places, which is a bit unusual. Xia Qiqi left this sentence and walked towards the outside of the main hall.

Everyone followed, Hua Dacai looked at Jiaoyu, shook his head helplessly, and said: "Jiaoyu, pay attention to the occasion in the future, although Elder Xia Seventeen is easy-going, he will not allow others to attack his majesty." ”

Jiaoyu nodded frequently and kept this sentence in his heart.

The newcomer assessment is a grand event in Yanhuang Academy, and the twenty-four holy churches must send an elder to attend. And since the disciples who have passed the newcomer assessment will join the Miscellaneous Service Hall first, in addition to Elder Xia Seventeen, the deacons of each branch will also have to go to the Miscellaneous Service Hall.

Therefore, in the newcomer assessment, the largest number of people on the judging table are the people from the Miscellaneous Service Hall.

Walking out of the main hall, Xia Seventeen made a big move, and a wooden sword flew out of his cuff. The appearance of the wooden sword was simple, and it looked like it was only a simple prototype, but when Xia Qiqi recited the mantra, complex symbols flashed on the smooth wooden sword.

As if they had come to life, the symbols danced on the sword, and the appearance of the wooden sword began to change, changing its color from light white to dark black, and its size continued to increase.

This is Elder Xia Seventeen's flying thing, just like the Qiankun in Qing Jin's painting. However, for Qingjin, the Qiankun in the painting is not only a substitute for transportation, but also a weapon for fighting.

In Jiang Yuan's opinion, the seven peaks of the Miscellaneous Service Hall were already quite a small area, but this area was only the tip of the iceberg in Yanhuang Academy. Standing on top of the wooden sword, soaring above the Yanhuang Academy, overlooking the below, I felt that the word academy was completely insufficient to sum up such a size.

Yanhuang Academy is like an independent world, if Jiang Yuan walks in it alone, he will definitely get lost.

Suddenly, large mountains and a thick white fog appeared in front of him, obscuring the view. It was like a fairyland, with the occasional crane and other birds passing by, and in the unknown realm, both Jiang Yuan and Jiaoyu showed curiosity.

"Brother Hua, what kind of place is this, where are we going?" Jiang Yuan asked in a low voice.

Before Hua Dacai could answer, Xia Qiqi opened his mouth and said: "This is the Guiyi Immortal Mountain of Yanhuang Academy, and it is the place where newcomers enter the entrance assessment. ”

"Guiyi Immortal Mountain? What a strange name. Jiang Yuan muttered quietly.

However, how could this be hidden from Xia Seventeen's ears, he continued: "As the so-called ninety-nine is one, nine is the number of supreme perfection, and ninety-nine encompasses all the changes in heaven and earth. Guiyi Immortal Mountain seems simple, but in fact, it is ever-changing and all-encompassing. In Guiyi Immortal Mountain, all the weirdness you encounter is normal, don't panic. ”

Jiang Yuan was surprised and wondered, "How can there be such a magical place?"

"Haha, the world is so big, there are no surprises, Jiang Yuan, you still see too little of the world. Xia Qiqi said with a smile.

On the side, several other deacons whispered.

"Although Elder Xia Seventeen is kind, he is a little taciturn on weekdays, even if he is with a few of us, he will not say so much. But what's going on today, talking so much with these two newcomers. ”

"In previous years, the Miscellaneous Service Hall only recruited ordinary disciples, and there had never been a specially recruited disciple, and it was the identity of the specially recruited disciples, which gave the two of them a place in the eyes of Elder Xia Seventeen. ”

"Impossible, Elder Xia Seventeen's eyes are empty, even if it is a specially recruited disciple, he will not pay attention to it, it must be that there is something special about these two people, we haven't found it yet. ”

......

Through the layers of white mist, two pillars that reached into the sky faintly appeared not far away. These two pillars are hidden in the clouds, looming.

The pillars were unusually tall and heavy, like heavenly pillars that supported heaven and earth. When I got closer, I saw the whole picture of these two pillars, one red and the other golden, each coiled with a domineering golden dragon, with dense patterns.

Beneath the two Optimus Pillars is a group of people, the size of ants when viewed from above.

"Jiang Yuan, Jiaoyu, do you know why there are three hundred and fifty-three places this year?" Elder Xia Seventeen suddenly asked.

Jiang Yuan frowned, as if he had guessed something.
