12. Chang'an
As a result, the pass rate of the external entrance examination of the Lantern Festival every year is only 1 in 10,000.
Rao is like this, the laymen in the red dust of the Donghua Continent are still happy to do this, whether it is a peddler or a pawn, or the children of the emperor's general's family, they all want to try their luck, what if they are the one in ten thousand?
The avenue of immortality has always been full of magic, attracting all living beings to bend their waists.
The rudder of the mountains and rivers, one of the thirty-six rudders of the Lunatic Cult, its geographical location is as domineering as its name, located in the middle of a long street in the imperial city of Jing'an.
At this time, at the gate of the mountain and river rudder, the crowd was crowded, so crowded that not a single fly could get in, but the scene was not chaotic but orderly, because it was those immortal masters in the Seven Peaks of the Moon Worship Sect who maintained order.
Some people followed the immortal master into the rudder, and walked out again after a while, with a face full of loss, as if their dream had been cut off. But as long as these people see that the people behind them are experiencing the same as themselves, they no longer feel heartbroken, but have a sense of relief.
Not everyone has the good fortune of being one in ten thousand.
Some people have a better mentality, and after entering the rudder with the immortal master, although there is also a look of loss on their faces, they only joke with their companions in the middle of the day.
But these heart-wrenching lessons from the past do not stop the heroic, eager and hopeful steps of those behind them.
They followed one after the other, heroically in the most demanding and difficult selection.
However, there are also a very small number of people, after entering the rudder, and never come out again, followed by the sound of ecstasy inside.
These people are naturally those who have the good fortune of being one in ten thousand and become one in ten thousand.
After hearing these voices, the eyes of the "warriors" outside are often a little red, and in addition to jealousy, the atrium will also be overflowing with eagerness and desire.
Of course, except for those "lucky people" who were ecstatic and lost their minds, the rest of the people did not dare to make a loud noise even if they had all kinds of emotions in their hearts, and at most they only talked with their companions about the weak sound of mosquitoes.
In the hearts of the people of the Dian Kingdom, the Lunatic Worship Sect's Lantern Festival is undoubtedly one of the most solemn, solemn and sacred activities, so everyone who participates in the Lantern Festival maintains the highest reverence.
"Moo~Moo~"
As a result, at this moment, an unpleasant cow cry broke the solemnity and sacredness.
The people in front of the rudder of the mountains and seas turned their heads angrily, looking for the sound of blasphemy that came from something that didn't kill them.
Immediately after, they saw a very dirty and ugly yak, and they were all stunned.
It is a human being who desecrates the Lantern Puja and can be crushed into a patty by the power of the people, but what if it is a cow?
The people are helpless!
So they looked up, and suddenly saw a young man in a black robe.
The young man's hair is scattered in the pale golden sunlight, his face is delicate, and his smile is clean, just like a clear spring in the most beautiful mountains and rivers, especially the two shallow dimples on his face, which make people feel kind and cute.
The people were stunned, and suddenly felt that the good feeling was not born.
But soon, this kindness was drowned out by raging anger.
This shepherd boy actually rode such an ugly and dirty yak to this sacred place on this holy day, which is simply a kind of desecration of the lantern passing ceremony.
And just now, the dirty and ugly yak made a terrible cry, isn't this an insult to the Lantern Festival?
Could it be that this shepherd boy is here to participate in the Lantern Festival, and what, such a person who is insincere and disrespectful to the Lunatic Cult is also worthy of participating in the Lantern Festival?
The people had a lot of mental activity for a while, but in the end they all wanted to go up and beat the bull riding boy into a meat patty.
And the young man in the black clothes on the yak looked at the angry people, feeling the killing intent like mountains and seas, but he looked at it with a comfortable look, how to look at it and how to be beaten.
But after all, this is the door of the mountain and sea rudder, one of the 36 rudders of the Lunatic Worship Sect, and it is an important day such as the Lantern Festival, causing trouble here is not only blaspheming and insulting the Lantern Worship Festival, but also fighting against the Lunatic Worship Sect.
So, no matter how angry the people were, they could only endure it, and at most they showed their hearts with those eyes full of murderous intent and anger.
The young man in Xuanyi riding a yak looked at the crowd like mountains and seas, and then looked at the rudder that seemed to be far away in the sky, and said with a smile, a little hesitant: "Ugly, there are so many people, do you want to cut the line?"
The yak glanced at him with disdain: With your powerless appearance now, you still want to cut in line, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death?
If it weren't for the Lantern Festival, if it weren't for the door of the rudder of the mountains and seas, they would have already gone back to take their own pig-killing knives and cattle slaughtering knives to cut down this young man who didn't know the height of the sky, and killed the ugly and dirty yak.
But in the end, there are still people who have a violent temper and will stand up and say, "Shepherd boy, you are from the mountains, right? What a sacrament is the Lantern Festival, and it is really a defilement for you to bring such a dirty and ugly beast here." ”
One person came out, and some people began to follow.
"That is, go and call your adults, I want to see how your adults educate a child like you. ”
"As long as you still want to participate in the lantern passing puja, get immortal fate, ask for the Great Dao, and don't pee to look like you. ”
"Go home quickly, don't be embarrassed here. ”
......
The cynical words were mixed with anger, and the people's dissatisfaction with the young man was vented one by one at this time, and they felt very happy.
And those who lack courage, don't want to cause trouble, and always remain silent, also look at the young man in Xuanyi at this time, their eyes are full of schadenfreude and abuse, and they seem to be looking forward to the young man in Xuanyi not being able to get off the stage next and making a fool of himself.
The young man in Xuanyi was not as annoyed and angry as they imagined, and there was still a clean and clear smile on his delicate and white face.
"You look down on my cows?" he asked.
This question seems idiotic to the population.
You're just a brother in our eyes, will we be able to afford your cow?
As a result, the people looked at the young man in Xuanyi as if they were looking at an idiot.
At this moment, a loud cry resounded through the sky.
Then, a cyan falcon flew in from afar, hovering high above everyone's heads, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
For some reason, looking at the cyan falcon, people can't help but think of the sacred bird Qingluan.
Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, one after another.
The people turned their eyes one after another, only to see that in the direction where the falcon was flying, there was a team of heavily armored cavalry escorting a carriage coming towards this side, and the Zheng Sipin Yun Commander led by the heavy armored cavalry was carrying two huge black flags.
On one side, there is a huge word "king" written on it, which is as vivid as blood.
On the other side is embroidered a mighty fire phoenix, lifelike, as if it will fly out of that flag at any time and soar above the nine heavens.
The word "Wang" is the surname of the royal family of the Dian Kingdom, and as for the fire phoenix, it is the military emblem of the fire phoenix, one of the four imperial divisions of the Dian Kingdom, which is taken from the meaning of "aggression like fire" in the art of war.
What kind of noble person is sitting in the carriage, who needs to be escorted by the fire phoenix, one of the four great emperors of the dignified Dian Kingdom?
The populace was amazed and cast envious glances at the carriage.
The carriage was made of extremely precious acacia wood in the Dian Kingdom, inlaid with countless gold and jade, painted with gold patterns to draw the phoenix emblem, and jade to draw the moon emblem, which was actually the immortal master in the moon worship sect.
The people gasped and suddenly had no envy and only the highest respect.
As a result, the people who were originally upright bent their heads slightly, assuming a humble posture.
No one paid any attention to the young man in Xuanyi and the dirty and ugly yak, because there were people and things they deserved more attention to at this time.
The young man in Xuanyi didn't care much, he lay lazily on the back of the yak, looking at the two flags, and his face showed a little nostalgia and emotion.
If the people pay attention to his expression now, they will only think that he is an idiot even more, and it will be a wave of cynicism.
Soon, under the escort of the Fire Phoenix Rider, the extremely luxurious carriage came to the door of the Shanhai Rudder and stopped.
The eyes of the people followed the movement of the fire phoenix and the carriage, and soon they saw the young man riding the bull who was extremely piercing.
As for the cow, it's even more eye-catching.
It's just horribly ugly.
He hasn't even left yet?
The people only felt that the bull-riding boy was simply insulting to the eyes of the immortal master at this time.
They very much hope that the bull riding boy will leave quickly, then thank God, but they can't be disrespectful, because the immortal master is here, and shouting loudly and some radical actions may cause the immortal master's disgust and dissatisfaction, which is a great disrespect.
So, they just looked at the bull riding boy with very vague eyes, signaling him to ride the ugly cow and walk quickly, don't insult the immortal master here.
As a result, I don't know if the bull riding boy was born stupid, or if he did it on purpose, as if he didn't see the hidden eyes of the people at all.
The people were even more angry, and they wanted to eat the boy alive.
Suddenly, the wind rose, and a few green leaves fell from the green trees next to the mountain and sea rudder.
A sword light landed at the door of the Shanhai rudder, followed by a rather majestic voice: "What's the noise?"
The people at the gate knelt on the ground and chanted the immortal master, as if a pious apostle was on a pilgrimage.
The sword light dissipated, revealing a dignified-looking middle-aged man, with a black beard on his chin, fluttering in the wind, although it was not a fairy wind bone, but it was also quite dusty.
He squinted his eyes slightly, scanning his surroundings as sharp as a sword.
Soon, he was attracted by a young man in Xuanyi riding a yak.
This immortal master's surname is Lu Mingwen, who has been teaching for a hundred years, although he has not cultivated to Mahayana, but he has read countless people.
Mortals in the red world, even if they are young and talented people with good hearts, even if they don't bow down to the immortal master when they see a cultivator, they will at least show excitement, yearning, and admiration.
But it is strange that this young man is so calm, it feels like a sea, seemingly calm and clear, incomparably deep and wide, but there are countless storms and waves hidden behind it.
Just when Lu Wen's mind was all on the bull riding boy, the envoy of the four pins of the wind phoenix dismounted and came to the carriage, and then saluted respectfully: "Master Gu, it's here." ”
Lu Wen immediately came back to his senses, looked at the carriage, and steadied himself, a kind sneer appeared on his face.
Then, a cold light swept open the curtain and burst out of the carriage directly to Lu Wen's side.
When the people saw this scene, they were even more shocked and speechless, and their yearning for cultivators in their hearts was even greater, and their respect was naturally deeper.
The cold light dissipated, and the young man stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the mountains and seas of people, without any expression, but giving people the feeling of looking down on all beings.
Lu Wen gave a salute to the young man and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Gu is back?"
The young man known as Senior Brother Gu nodded: "Well, I just came back from home, and by the way, I brought my younger brother to take the entrance test." ”
The people were slightly startled, and then turned their eyes, only to see that there was an extra boy next to the carriage at some point, the boy had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and the appearance of this immortal master surnamed Gu was somewhat similar, so naturally he was the younger brother in the mouth of Gu Immortal Master.
Suddenly, many people showed envious and jealous eyes, wishing that their identities were reversed from each other.
What's more, his eyes turned red.
The boy didn't have the lofty bearing of his brother, he looked a little flattered, but he didn't show excessive emotions, and he was a good seedling with a good heart.
Lu Wen nodded slightly at this scene, feeling quite satisfied, so he asked with a smile, "Brother Ling's name?"
Gu Immortal Master raised his eyebrows: "Gu Changan, I took it." ”
"Good," said Luwen.
I don't know if he's saying that this name is good, or if Gu Immortal Master is better, or both?
Then, Immortal Master Gu looked at the boy, his eyes were slightly cold: "Don't come here yet!"
"Oh. The boy replied with a smile, but there was still joy in his eyes, and he hurriedly ran to his brother's side, looking a little clumsy.
After the boy came to Gu Immortal Master's side, the smile on Lu Wen's face became a little gentler: "Come in with me?"
Obviously, this Gu Immortal Master's younger brother relied on his privilege to cut the queue to take the exam, and it was possible to join the Lunatic Worship Sect directly through the back door.
However, these mountains and seas of people can't give birth to a trace of opinion, after all, shouldn't the younger brother of the immortal master also be an immortal master?
As the saying goes, if one person gains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven!
So, everyone thinks it makes sense, but there are always exceptions.
For example, at this time, the young man riding the bull let out a surprise at an inopportune time: "You can actually cut the line, then I'll also plug one." ”
Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on him.
The eyes of ordinary people seemed to be about to erupt with fire, if it weren't for the presence of the Moon Worship Sect Immortal Master, even if it was the Lantern Festival today, even if it was at the door of the mountain and sea rudder, maybe those people would have already rolled up their sleeves and beat him all over the ground to find his teeth.
