1002 Preliminary Examination
"You're coming to this question too?" Qin Xianglin sneered and looked directly at Hu Bing.
Seeing this, Hu Bing said a little embarrassed: "Uncle Man, don't be surprised, this is a good thing!" ”
Qin Xianglin shook his head and said with a hint of sarcasm: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I don't know Shi Hanshan!" ”
This is the end of the wine. Hu Bing left with some trepidation.
Qin Xianglin held a glass of wine and drank it alone, and couldn't help but sigh: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit!" Is there no pure friendship in this place anymore? ”
Qin Xianglin began to meditate and cultivate, probably because of the corpse king of the Northern Cold Mountain, Snow Lotus, Qin Xianglin's dantian began to appear incomparably full of true power, like a sea. Qin Xianglin is like a small tree that needs to grow, absorbing water frantically in this sea, and constantly making himself grow stronger.
Qin Xianglin was practicing with all his might, and he hadn't seen anyone for seven days, and at the same time, he had already taken the Ke Gu Yuan Pill sent by Zhao Liyi.
Seven days later, at night, the prefecture began to release the list, and there were more than 500 people participating in the gold medal walking competition. Among them, there are many famous and decent protégés, among which there are more than 150 people in the Taoist family, more than 150 people in the Buddhist family, and the remaining more than 200 people are non-Buddhist and non-Taoist people, and Qin Xianglin is in this range.
It stands to reason that Qin Xianglin should belong to the Daomen, after all, Qin Xianglin is the apprentice of the Zixia Daoist. However, Qin Xianglin did not practice in the formal Daomen, and his registration was also completed with the help of Chenghuang Zheng Hongde, so Qin Xianglin could not be counted as a member of the Daomen.
On the night of the list, Zheng Hongde came to Qin Xianglin with the list, and his expression became a little solemn. "Brother, there must be more than 500 people on the list of candidates, which really surprised me!"
Qin Xianglin just glanced at the list of prostitutes, and did not look at it carefully, since he decided to participate in this competition, it doesn't matter if there are many people.
"Brother, I originally hoped that you would be able to enter the top 30 of the competition list, but I didn't expect that there were so many people who participated, including many young talents from Buddhism and Taoism, you try your best to make yourself rank higher, and after the competition is over, I will find a way for you!" Zheng Hongde comforted Qin Xianglin.
Qin Xianglin didn't have much interest in joining the prefecture and becoming an official member of the prefecture, but since he wanted to participate in the competition, he had to go all out.
"Master Zheng, when will the competition start?" Qin Xianglin asked in a calm tone.
"Three days later, at night, it's the first test!" Zheng Hongde replied, and then patiently explained the process of the initial test to Qin Xianglin: "When the time comes, the underworld will select a place, and then release two hundred souls from the underworld, and the means of grabbing souls in the first test competition." More than 500 contestants, the top 100, the results are ranked according to the number of souls captured by individuals! Time is the time of a stick of incense! ”
Qin Xianglin carefully went through it in his heart, and he didn't think that the first test was a difficult thing, after all, Qin Xianglin had a puppet grinding and a nether divine fire, which were specifically used to deal with soul bodies.
After the first try, it is still a knockout format. However, it has not been announced, and only those who can pass the preliminary examination will be able to know.
Three days later, in the arena of the first test, Qin Xianglin arrived at the venue alone. Zheng Hongde, as the local city god, is not allowed to leave his post without an order. Moreover, as a venue for the prefectural government to select gold medal walking, the local city god and the relevant staff of the prefectural government must avoid it accordingly.
Zheng Hongde couldn't come, and there was no one else around Qin Xianglin, so Qin Xianglin chose to go to the competition alone.
In fact, the so-called arena is nothing more than a mountain, with dense trees and desolate graves.
When Qin Xianglin arrived at the arena, it was already crowded. Except for Qin Xianglin, there were no other players who came alone, they all had various sects, and the elders in the sect led their disciples to come.
There are dozens of more people together, although these sects also have their own belongings, most of them belong to the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, but there are many branches of Buddhism and Taoism, and the people in these branches are not very close.
Qin Xianglin walked in the crowd and saw the banner of Zhengyi from a distance. Uncle Zhou belongs to the Zhengyi people, and Master Zixia Dao also belongs to the Zhengyi people.
One by one, yellow flags were planted in a clearing, and at least seventy or eighty people, most of them young men and women, were wearing Taoist robes, and they were all handsome and handsome.
Qin Xianglin watched from afar, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Zhengyi is really the orthodoxy of the world's Taoist sect, it is the façade of Taoism, and the dress, as well as the expression and temperament of the single chong personnel, are not comparable to others!" "The fire is out
"These people are Uncle Zhou's disciples, teachers and nephews...... Sure enough, it is a famous family, and only such a famous and decent family can produce a character like Uncle Zhou! Qin Xianglin couldn't help but sigh in a low voice, looking at those brightly dressed and handsome young talents, Qin Xianglin couldn't help but envy in his heart: "These peers must have been cultivating in Zhengyi since they were children, and their cultivation is only afraid that they are far above me!" ”
"Brother Qin?" Qin Xianglin was just emotional, and he heard a voice coming. Qin Xianglin followed the voice and looked over, and saw that in the middle of it, a girl wearing a long skirt and a shawl with long hair came over with a smile on her face.
That kind of blue-gray long skirt is worn by female cultivators in Zhengyi, and I don't know which master designed it, wearing it on the bodies of these female practitioners, with the unique slender figure of the cultivators, and the temperament cultivated by the Zhengyi Spiritual Exercises, giving people a feeling of being out of the world, like a fairy of the Nine Heavens descending to earth.
Qin Xianglin looked at the girl who came over, and couldn't help but be a little stunned, and for a while he couldn't remember who the girl who came like him was, so he just looked at the girl blankly.
The girl walked slowly, like a gust of fresh wind, which made people feel refreshed.
"Brother Qin, are you here too?" Behind the girl came two more paths dressed in men's robes. Qin Xianglin reacted from his astonishment, and only then could he see clearly that the two people who came were Gao Jin and Tian Yong.
Recognizing Gao Jin and Tian Yong and looking at the girl who came slowly, Qin Xianglin reacted again, the girl wearing a long skirt like a fairy was none other than the little junior sister Zhang Qingling.
At the same time that he recognized Zhang Qingling, Qin Xianglin also heard the jingling bell on Zhang Qingling's body. In fact, the sound of that bell has always been there, but Qin Xianglin can only hear it at this moment.
Although Zhang Qingling was not ugly, Qin Xianglin had never had such an amazing feeling before. After wearing this long skirt tailored for female cultivators, Zhang Qingling's appearance seemed to have suddenly been raised a lot.
"Senior Brother Gao, Senior Brother Tian, Senior Sister Zhang, long time no see!" Qin Xianglin arched his hand.
"yes, it's been almost a month!" Gao Jin couldn't help but sigh.
"I've been looking in the Northwest Desert for a long time, but I don't know anything after all, and I can't find the murderer of Uncle Zhou overnight!" Qin Xianglin said in a deep voice.
"Brother Qin, you can't be in a hurry about this matter, after all, the reasons behind it are extremely complicated, our head led four of the seven elders to Loulan City in person, but after all, nothing was found!" Zhang Qingling saw that Qin Xianglin's expression was gloomy, so he hurriedly comforted Qin Xianglin.
Qin Xianglin nodded, his eyes looked at Zhang Qingling, "That's all!" ”
"Brother Qin, are you here to participate in the selection?" Tian Yong asked.
"Not bad! I want to try it! Qin Xianglin replied.
"Brother Qin, your skill is far ahead of us, and you will have hope to enter the top 30!" When Gao Jin said this, he looked around and whispered to Qin Xianglin: "According to internal rumors: if there is chaos today, the first place in this selection will certainly be able to succeed Uncle Zhou as the god of the underworld, and the second to twenty-ninth will be appointed by the underworld!" Brother Qin, I'm optimistic about you! ”
Qin Xianglin only nodded slightly when he heard this, and at this time, only three people came out, two men and one woman. As soon as the three of them came out, people immediately surrounded them.
When Gao Jin saw it, he hurriedly whispered to Qin Xianglin. He looked at a tall, fair-skinned, handsome and flowing young man with thick black hair in the crowd, and said, "This is the senior brother in our young faction, called Qi Beiliao, and he has a nickname: Cold Light Swordsman, he is the future and hope of our Zhengyi."
Then Gao Jin looked at a young man not far from Qi Beiliao, that young man had handsome eyebrows and a pair of extremely good-looking Danfeng eyes, not as tall as Qi Beiliao, but he was not short, his body was slender, and he looked like he had a strong affinity.
"This senior brother's name is Lin Feiyu, he is proficient in the method of sigils, and he is the leader of my sect!" Gao Jin whispered. After introducing this person, Gao Jin's gaze turned to the only girl among the three. The girl's skin was extremely white, and from a distance, it seemed to glow in the dark night. The facial features are delicate like the person in the painting, but the expression is a little cold, there is no speech, and it is very quiet.
"This senior sister ...... Actually, she was younger than me, but she got started earlier than us...... Okay, let's call it Senior Sister, her name is: Su Qingyan, and she is also a person with extremely high cultivation! ”
After Gao Jin finished introducing the three of them, he looked at Qin Xianglin, "Brother Qin, your strength is enough to enter the top thirty, but don't meet these three people after the initial test!" ”
Qin Xianglin just nodded slightly, his eyes looked at Qi Beiliao, Lin Feiyu and Su Qingyan one by one, and kept the appearance of the three of them in his heart, these three people would definitely become very strong enemies on Qin Xianglin's way forward. But before they fought, Qin Xianglin didn't let him think how strong they were.
