Chapter 1: Yang Fan
Life has been in a hurry for decades, and it is also in a hurry, why not get drunk and sing, and then become famous, and it is not in vain to go to the world!
In November, the sky began to slowly drift with light snow, and the temperature began to drop sharply.
Several children in the courtyard were chasing and fighting.
At the door of the welfare home, an old man and a young man were telling about parting.
"Yang Fan, you are an adult, according to the regulations, after the age of eighteen, you will leave the welfare home to work your own, remember, to live well, you must take the right path. ”
At the door of a welfare home, an old woman who was already hunched over whispered softly to a teenager pulling a box and carrying a backpack.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will be fine, thank you for taking care of me for the past eighteen years, I am gone, and I will come back to see you in the future." ”
The boy tightened the straps of his backpack and bowed to the old lady.
"Well, it's okay, come to this jade pendant and you take it, this is what you carried back then, I have always kept it, and now that you are an adult and grown up, this one will be returned to you, and it will be all up to you in the future." ”
With that, the old lady took out a small box from her pocket.
Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, then reached out and took the box, and said, "Thank you, mother-in-law, take care of your body, it's too cold outside, go back quickly, I'm leaving." ”
After speaking, Yang Fan bowed again, with tears in his eyes, and turned to leave.
The boy braved the biting cold wind and walked into the distance, and behind him was the place where he grew up in the first half of his life.
Here the teenager learns to survive and learns to be a human being.
......
Winters in the cities of the Northwest are cold, and this cold cuts through your bare skin like a knife.
The cold wind is like an ice blade, no matter how thick you wear, in a few moments, the cold air can penetrate the cotton clothes and touch the skin.
In the small northwest city of HM City, Tianshan North Road Avenue has been overcrowded.
A large number of citizens lined up in a long line, all of them were parents with children, and today was the time for the twice-a-year practitioner qualification test.
It has been ten years since the revival of the aura in 2008, and no one knows the cause of the revival of the aura of heaven and earth.
In the early days of the revival of the aura, the world was a little chaotic, all kinds of people who had awakened their natural abilities were a little fluttering because they suddenly got a strong power, the crime phenomenon was increasing day by day, and the crimes of the awakened people overseas occurred frequently, and in the country, because the government made a timely decision, the "Sky Net" was established in the early stage to arrest all the awakened people who committed crimes, and the strategy of snaring the awakened people in the world has achieved remarkable results.
In the early days of its establishment, the purpose of Skynet was to recruit capable people from all over the world for the use of the country, and under the vigorous operation of the government, Skynet successfully completed the recovery of domestic cultivators and awakened people.
After the ruins were opened, awakened people from all over the world entered it to explore, and Skynet also occupied a large victory in the ruins with its internal stability and strength.
Later, the state established the Practitioner Academy, the Practitioner Administration, to continue to explore those who have spiritual talent or awakened in the country.
Every year, the Practitioner Administration Bureau across the country holds two qualification tests, and the testing standard is for 18-year-old adult girls and girls across the country.
If you are found to have a cultivation or awakening talent, you can enter the cultivator academy run by the government and directly under the jurisdiction of Skynet.
In today's society, practitioners have become the mainstream, and the significance of testing is on par with or even higher than that of the college entrance examination.
Yang Fan was in this team, and the teenager went straight here when he came out of the welfare home.
A good boy, who doesn't have a dream of Xianxia?
Yang Fan was eagerly looking forward to it at the moment, and he wanted to see if he had the qualifications to practice.
If you can enter the Cultivator Academy, it will be tantamount to leaping into the dragon gate and stepping into a new world!
......
At this moment, the crowd is noisy and shouting, so it is not lively.
"Lao Wang, do you think it's possible for this kid in my family to become a cultivator, this fucking is more nervous than I was in the college entrance examination. Lao Liu patted the head of his son next to him and said.
"Hey, who can know this, I hope it works, the world has changed, we took the college entrance examination back then, even if the test is not ideal, we can still have a chance to rise with our own efforts.
But now that this aura has been revived, it is not possible to catch up with cultivators and ordinary people by working hard, this depends on talent. If you can't become a cultivator, then you are a person from two worlds after all," Lao Wang sighed, looked at his child, and said worriedly.
"Alas, yes..."Lao Liu also sighed, and then said: "You and I don't have any chances in our lives, I hope the children can pass the test."
Yang Fan listened to the parents in line in front of him discussing the topic of whether their children could be qualified.
"Yes, this era has changed, the gap between cultivators and ordinary people is getting bigger and bigger, I don't know if I have the possibility to become a cultivator, if I don't have this talent, I really want to fend for myself, but I don't have any special skills except for the strength of the master, what can I do?"
Yang Fan was also worried at this time, yes, a child who grew up in a welfare home, cultural knowledge is limited, there is no problem in the first nine years of compulsory education in the welfare home, but Yang Fan has not been to high school in the back, why? Of course, because the tuition fees are too expensive, all kinds of tuition and miscellaneous fees, school uniform fees, book fees, tuition fees, together are not something that an orphan can afford, although the welfare home has government subsidies, it can only maintain the children's food and clothing. This is due to the sponsorship of members of the community.
Yang Fan studied high school courses by himself for a period of time after graduating from junior high school, but no one taught him to cross the river by feeling the stones, and what he learned was also limited.
In the past, people often said that knowledge changes fate, and this sentence is still fine, but I have to add a sentence, practice makes life!
The long line walked forward slowly, and after about an hour, Yang Fan finally walked into the gate of the Cultivator Administration!
The apprehension in the hearts of the teenagers also began to intensify.
"Huhu..." Yang Fan rubbed his hands and sighed into his palm, which could be regarded as warmer.
However, as the distance got closer and closer, the teenagers became more and more uneasy in their hearts.
"Dad, I'm so nervous, the tension of the college entrance examination came again some time ago, and this time it seems to be even worse than last time. A teenager said to his father beside him with a shudder.
"No problem, son, you can definitely do it," the father next to him pretended to be relaxed and comforted.
Yang Fan listened to the conversation in front of him, and his heart was also weak for a while, "This is almost me, this is almost me, normal heart, normal heart, I will definitely be able to." ......”
Yang Fan was doing mental relief, but his body was still very honest, and he trembled because of nervousness.
The footsteps continued to move forward, and soon Yang Fan arrived.
Walking into the testing hall, Yang Fan saw that there were isolated rooms one by one, and the staff members were shuttling through each room with utensils in their hands.
Parents are already waiting in the specially arranged area. It was a fateful moment, everyone was excited and nervous, and from time to time teenagers or girls came out of the room and walked towards the special waiting area.
From time to time, the staff came to announce the results, the teenagers were happy or sad, and the parents were laughing or annoyed.
Under the leadership of a special person, Yang Fan came to a room, opened the door, and there was a middle-aged man about 40 inside. Next to the middle-aged man was a huge machine, the same as the one that the hospital used to do examinations and lay down to test. In fact, it was a CT machine, but Yang Fan didn't make one, and he only saw it on TV, so he didn't know the name.
"Come here, lie down, take your shoes off. ”
After listening to this, Yang Fan put down his backpack and suitcase, went over and took off his shoes and lay down, he had the heart to ask, but he didn't know what to ask, and he was only worried in his heart.
The light wave of the machine swept over, and then Yang Fan felt a tingling in his fingers, and saw that it was a middle-aged man who pricked his finger with a small tube and took a little blood. Then place the tube in the utensils box on the table.
"Come down, put on your shoes, come over and fill out the form. ”
Yang Fan rolled over and got out of bed, put on his shoes, and went to sit down at the table.
As soon as he sat down, the middle-aged man took out the form on the side of the table and began to ask:
"Name?"
"Yang Fan"
"Address?"
"I don't have an address, I just came out of the welfare home, and I don't have a place to live yet!"
The middle-aged man glanced up at Yang Fan
"Orphans?"
"Yes!"
"Then I'll fill in the welfare home, and if the notice is sent to the welfare home at that time, you can get it yourself!"
"Okay, uh, don't I think you can know the results from the outside?"
Yang Fan had the courage to ask
The middle-aged man said again, "The outside is to tell you whether you have cultivation qualifications, and the notice means that you have been admitted to that college, our seventy-two cultivation colleges in Huaxia, you will go out to fill in that academy, which college will send you a notice after admitting you." ”
"Okay, I see, thanks!"
Then after asking Yang Fan some basic information one after another, the middle-aged man said:
"Alright, you go outside and wait, and someone will tell you after a while whether your qualifications are suitable for cultivation, or if you have the potential to awaken your talents. ”
"Okay. ”
Yang Fan nodded, then picked up his luggage and walked out of the door nervously.
