Tianlan City in the middle of Hanging Rock Prefecture, the thick city walls are towering into the sky, and the surrounding hanging islands in the distance are like dense starfall rings.

Outside the side gate of Qiufu, located in the west of Tianlan City, a lot of poor people gathered early in the morning.

"The bamboo chips have been sent to you, they are all lined up, and the eliminated people will recycle the bamboo chips, so don't come forward again. The old man sitting at the table got up and said in a low voice in response to the panicked scene of many people.

Faced with the oppression of the old man's third layer of qi refining, the many poor people who almost filled the small street really had a lot of rules.

In the crowd, a young man dressed in rags of different colors was tall and quite strong, which made the others a little afraid to crowd up.

"It's pretty loose. ”

This young man in rags was Ji Fan who escaped from Luoyu City.

It has been two days since he came to Tianlan City, and Ji Fan did not buy a house in the city as before, but chose a small family in the city to participate in the election.

Facing Ji Fan's gaze, a swarthy and sturdy young man not far from him didn't know why there was fear in his heart, and he quickly turned his gaze away.

After waiting in line for a while, when it was Ji Fan's turn, he came to the desk where the registered old man was and put two knuckle-length bamboo cards on the table.

"You're not small. ”

The old man glanced up at Ji Fan, and was immediately attracted by his tall and strong figure.

"Lord Steward, I have the strength to work, and I can pick and carry it. Ji Fan showed urgency and recommended himself to the old man.

"It's okay, what's it called?"

The old man smiled slightly, and after being surprised that Ji Fan was upright and masculine, he didn't take it very seriously.

Not to mention a poor person like Ji Fan, even if he is a martial artist who cultivates true qi, in front of a third-layer qi refiner like the old man, he can just pinch to death at will.

Especially Ji Fan's recommendation of his own strength, in the eyes of the old man, it was even a little ridiculous.

"Ji Fan. ”

As soon as he heard the old man ask his name, Ji Fan seemed to feel that there was a door, and hurriedly stepped forward to respond.

"Do you know how to write your own name?"

The old man questioned Ji Fan and completely regarded him as a young man in a mountain village.

"It used to be taught by the elders of the village, but it was not well written. ”

Ji Fan was a little shy, and he didn't seem to know what to do.

"Write your name on the bamboo plaque, where are you from?" the old man gestured to the bamboo plaque that Ji Fan placed on the table, and asked him casually.

"I'm from Yuanshan Village, quite far from here, there are mountain bandits over there, and the village has been destroyed. Ji Fan looked expectant, and he was completely talking nonsense with his eyes open.

Hearing Ji Fan's stupid statement, and then looking at the crooked name he wrote on the bamboo card with a millipen, the old man couldn't help laughing, and pressed the back of the bamboo card with his right thumb, leaving a faint spiritual fingerprint.

"Go in, someone inside will take you to see the master for re-election, don't talk nonsense when the time comes. The old man waved his hand towards the side door, asking the sturdy Ji Fan to do it well.

"Thank you, Steward, thank you, Steward. ”

Ji Fan was thanked by the old man in a row, and he looked like he had met someone he knew.

"Yes, if you want to be a housekeeper in the Autumn Mansion, you have to have such a physique. The old man's words were clearly addressed to the poor.

Entering the side door, he saw that the nine young men inside were still waiting, and Ji Fan honestly stood aside.

"Far Mountain Village!"

Ji Fan secretly sighed in his heart, the Yuanshan Village he talked about to the old man was the village where he had met Ye Yao outside the Xuanyin Mountain Range before.

Although there were many people outside the side door of Qiufu, in less than a cup of tea, the old man in front of the table had already made a preliminary selection.

"This autumn mansion is terrible, if you can serve the master, you will be a master in the future. A handsome young man whispered to the others.

"That immortal master just now, the momentum is too amazing!"

Just as a few young people were whispering, a slightly older woman had already come to the courtyard of the side door, with the temperament of a servant girl from a large family.

"Lined up in the order of entering the door, and one by one followed. Facing the gaze of the young people, the woman in the flat shoes began to arrange for the verification of the name.

In the eyes of these young people who want to be elected as a family member, the Qiu Mansion is not magnificent, but Ji Fan, who turned around Tianlan City, knows that this Qiu Mansion can only be regarded as a small family.

The whole autumn house twelve courtyards, even larger than the Ji Mansion in the north sacrifice city before, quite deep and broad, not only the courtyard houses are many, the attic, the small hall, and the ancestral hall can also be seen, the flowers and plants in the house are sparse, and the rockery is a waterhole.

In the main hall of the Sanjin courtyard, an old woman sat on a cane, and on the left and right sides, two women looked relaxed and looked out with the old woman's gaze.

Outside the main hall, five young men were taken to the stone clearing, and although they did not dare to say a word, they stood up straight with their chests raised.

"There are a lot of people who should choose a family this year, and I don't know whether to choose a calmer one or a more clever one. "The old woman doesn't have a roster to be selected.

"But the ancestors' minds. ”

The graceful woman sitting on the right side of the main hall smiled at the old woman.

"If there is a calmer one, it's best to fill in the yard of Yan Shan's girl. The old woman's words made the woman on the left-hand side below smile a little reluctantly.

"It's still the ancestor who feels sorry for Shan'er. ”

The graceful woman on the right-hand side was not interested in the row of young men standing outside, but she smiled and catered to the old woman.

"This column collects bamboo signs, and when you go out, you can get a bag of rice. The woman and the maid with the roster made arrangements for the outside at the right time.

I saw that the five young people who were not selected couldn't help but be a little discouraged, but they still left quietly, not daring to show anything.

Not long after the five youths walked on their front feet, the five youths behind were brought in again.

When the gaze of the first old woman in the main hall swept to the last young man standing, she couldn't help but nod slightly to her tall figure.

"Ji Fan, a native of Yuanshan Village, is eighteen years old. Finding the old woman's expression, the handmaid who was old and holding the roster, whispered in the main hall.

"Tall and strong, looking quite manly. The graceful woman sitting on the right-hand side had a smile on her face, and she was very indifferent when she talked about her family.

Ji Fan took three steps forward. ”

The handmaiden, who was holding the roster, called to the outside.

"Have you ever practiced martial arts?"

The first old woman didn't get up, didn't leave the main hall, and asked Ji Fan outside, which brought pressure.

"I know how to hunt, but I have never practiced martial arts. ”

Ji Fan didn't dare to raise his head, and responded to the old woman in a sullen voice.

"It's a pity that after the age of laying the foundation, let's keep it, do things well and do things loyally, the Qiu Mansion will not be treated badly, take it to the Yanshan girl in the East Courtyard of Liujin. After the old woman said to Ji Fan, she gestured to the maid holding the roster.

"Shan'er is also eighteen years old, and she has passed the age of marriage, if she can find a spirit or a spirit maid for her, the ancestor can plan for her future. The woman in the right seat of the main hall took the opportunity to plead with the old woman.

"It's difficult to enter the sect, let's see if we can find a good family for her in the dynasty family. The old woman sighed, and did not promise the graceful woman anything.

After leaving the Sanjin Courtyard, Ji Fan, who was taken by the maidservant all the way, walked for a while before arriving in the Liujin East Courtyard.

"Why is Sister Qiuxian here?"

The sixth entrance to the east courtyard was quite bright, and a young maid who was watering flowers saw the maid who came with Ji Fan, so she pretended to be enthusiastic and stepped forward to greet her.

"Today, the house is elected, and the ancestor chose a good one for Miss Yanshan. With Ji Fan's maidservant, she smiled at him.

"I'm going to tell Miss that Sister Qiuxian should stay and rest for a while. The young maid who watered the flowers gave way to the maid with Ji Fan.

"No, it's good to hand it over to Miss Yanshan, I have to go back, I can't say that there is still an errand. The older maidservant said with a smile.

In Ji Fan's mind, the maid who took him to the small courtyard can be regarded as having a very high status, unless it is a surname, the general maid cannot be called the lord's surname.

Moreover, the maid named Qiu Xian is a monk on the second level of qi refining, which is indeed different from the young maid who waters the flowers.

"Still stunned what to do. ”

When the older maid left, the young maid chattered at Ji Fan and motioned for him to take the small bucket.

Ji Fan secretly sighed that the maidservant girl was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was quite powerful, and she was about to catch up with the face-changing king.

After the maidservant had gone up to the pavilion, a maiden came down with her support.

"Isn't it a spirit or a spirit maid?"

The girl wearing a collared shirt and a tulle shawl couldn't tell that Ji Fan was a monk, and she didn't think he was.

Finding the girl's disappointment, Ji Fan seemed to dare not look at her.

"You go and try the stone locks. ”

The girl looked at the stone placed on the ground in the distance and gestured to Ji Fan.

Ji Fan walked towards the stone lock, and it was not easy to be a family member in the secret way, and it was not easy to pass the left and the right.

"Ahh

Ji Fan held his hands on the stone lock, exhaled and opened his voice, his neck and forehead gradually became green, and he lifted it up, pretending to be quite similar.

"This stone lock is only a hundred catties, and it is already so difficult, just looking at the tall and big horses. The girl who was being supported obviously showed a look of disappointment.

"The minion will be loyal to the young lady. ”

Ji Fan put down the stone lock and hurriedly bowed to the girl.

"It's okay to have an image, and it's not a shame to take it out. The fair-skinned girl glanced at Ji Fan and said.

Although he felt that the heart of the girl in front of him was higher than the sky, Ji Fan had to admit that her delicate face and body were very beautiful.

"Miss left you, you have to understand Entu Bao. The young maid whispered to Ji Fan.

"The slave will rely on Miss in the future, and swear to repay Miss for her kindness. Ji Fan showed a clever smile on his face, and hurriedly thanked the girl as if he had smeared honey on his mouth.

For Ji Fan, the current world is not good, instead of cultivating in the wilderness or buying a mansion in the city, it is better to hide in a small family, and also take this opportunity to change his mood.

Ji Fan, who was not far away from the central part of Hanging Rock Prefecture, came to Qiufu in Tianlan City, and did not even hide his name, one was that he felt that no one could know him, and the other was that he felt that such a small family was safer and more suitable for hiding.
