Chapter 53: Atay
took Zhang Dahai's head, and this high-score task was completed. Ling Jun did not stop, ran directly to the boundary of Lingmen, Qifeng City is located in the west of Lingmen, is a century-old city, there is a towering plane tree growing in the city, it is said that there was once a nine-day Xuanfeng inhabited here, after the phoenix left, people established a city here, so it is called Qifeng.
Entering the city, an antique scenery comes into view, the architectural style of the city is simple and atmospheric, the streets are paved with huge stones, and there is a large hall in the center of the city, which was a place to worship the gods for a long time, and now it has been transformed into the residence of the Lingmen officials.
In order to avoid being recognized, Ling Jun put on a mask again, walked through the market, and Ling Jun came to the venue where the sect recruited new people.
At this time, the competition in the ring had already begun, and Ling Jun took out the portrait he had obtained from the task recipient and began to look for his target.
First, I looked at the people who were competing in the ring, and found that the person named Atai mentioned in the mission was not on the stage. So Ling Jun began to look for his goal in the audience, the seats under the stage are divided into contestant seats and audience seats, Ling Jun inquired and learned that this person named Atai has no background, he is just an ordinary Orion child, seventeen years old this year, due to his natural strength, he has practiced a body of fist and foot kung fu, and has not cultivated spiritual power to join the ranks of spiritual cultivation.
Even so, he still relied on his brute strength to defeat those spiritual opponents one by one! From the beginning of the peripheral selection competition, Ah Tai has been soaring all the way, and the most commendable thing is that he defeated a spiritual cultivator at the peak of the Spiritual Qi Realm, which also made all the contestants look at Ah Tai differently and be extremely afraid.
These newcomers who participate in the recruitment of new people in the clan are either prominent in their families, or they have thousands of wealth in their families, and they are not short of cultivation resources, but after all, they are not practicing in the sect, and the masters invited are also some folk cultivators, so on top of cultivation, it is good to reach the spiritual transformation realm at most.
Among them, there is a player who happened to be drawn with Atai, because he was afraid of Atai's strength, so he went to the Shadow Killing Sect to ask the killer to kill Atai and clear the way for his promotion.
So, Ling Jun came.
According to the information he had inquired into, Ling Jun saw the person he was looking for in a corner of the contestant's bench -- Atai! Don't look at him as only seventeen years old, his tiger-backed body and angular face made him look like twenty-seven.
Ling Jun slowly walked behind Ah Tai, reached out and gently patted him on the shoulder......
"Huh?" said Atai, turning to look at the masked man behind him.
"Are you Atai?" Ling Jun asked, lowering his voice.
Atai scratched his head and said angrily, "It's me, who are you, what are you looking for me?"
"I heard that you got here with brute force?" Ling Jun asked again.
"Hmm. They're all afraid of me!" said Artey.
Ling Junyile suddenly thought of an idea, so he asked again, "Do you have other relatives in your family?"
Ah Tai was stunned for a moment and said, "Why are you asking me all this?"
"Oh, if you go to those spiritual cultivation clans, wouldn't it be a pity if you don't use your strength? My friend's clan can just use your strength, if you go to him with me, you will definitely be useful!" Ling Jun paused after finishing speaking, and continued: "So, I just want to ask if there are any other relatives in your family, so that if you go with me, I can also settle them down." ”
"You're not going to be like those people and come and make fun of me, are you?" said Atay in a muffled voice.
"Don't worry, since I found you, I must know something about you, my friend is lacking a disciple like you, and I am also entrusted by someone to help him find an apprentice to inherit the mantle! Don't compare me with those boring people, I have a lot of business to do this day, how can I have the leisure to make fun of you?" Ling Jun said seriously.
"That'...... Then I don't have to participate in this competition?"
"Yes, you don't have to participate, just follow me to my friend. ”
Ah Tai was still skeptical, and then asked: "Tell me what your friend's clan is called, if you can tell it, I will go with you." ”
Ling Jun leaned into Ah Tai's ear and whispered, "Have you ever heard of the ghost clan?"
Ah Tai's tiger body was shocked, he nodded his head twice, his face showed a look of joy, and said: "I just want to join the ghost clan this time, but I didn't expect to be so lucky that I would be admitted exceptionally!"
"Shhhh After Ling Jun finished speaking, he left the table and walked out of the field first, Atai turned his head to look at the game on the field, and seemed to want to go up and try before leaving, but the temptation that Ling Jun gave him was too great, and in the end he still made up his mind and walked out of the field with Ling Jun's front and back feet.
Ling Jun secretly glanced back at Ah Tai, and smiled secretly in his heart: "It's so easy to trust others." It's good that he's better than a fool. ”
Out of Qifeng City, Ling Jun took Atai all the way to the west, straight to the broken mountain, his move, can be described as killing two birds with one stone, killing two birds with one stone!
Not only solved the matter of accepting apprentices for the ghost, but also completed the task of the Shadow Killing Sect, the ultimate goal of the task is to clear the obstacles to promotion for the employer, Ling Jun did this, neither violated the task regulations, nor did it hinder the employer's promotion, besides, Atai's conditions are too suitable to be the ghost's apprentice, if this is a different person, maybe Ling Jun can really do it!
"You just said you still have parents at home?" Ling Jun asked.
"Yes. ”
"Where is your home and what do your parents do?" Ling Jun asked again.
"My family is in Orion Village, at the foot of Lingmen Mountain, and my family makes a living from hunting, and my parents are both hunters. "Atay said.
"Oh! It turned out to be from Orion Village. ”
"Hmm!"
"Who do you think I am?" Ling Jun said with a smile as he slowly removed his mask.
"Ahh......h Master Ling!?Atai has seen Master Ling!" As he spoke, Atai knelt down and saluted Ling Jun.
"Hehe, get up, I didn't expect there to be a talent like you in Orion Village! I knew that I would go to your village and take you away directly, but fortunately I took this task, otherwise I would ......"
"What do you mean?" said Artai, scratching his head.
"Oh...... It's nothing. It is...... It's the task of helping the ghost find an apprentice...... Since you are at the foot of Lingmen Mountain, you can rest assured that your family will let someone take care of them when I go back, so you can just follow the ghost and practice in peace. Ling Jun said.
Ah Tai nodded and said, "If the head speaks, Ah Tai will definitely rest assured! Then Master Lao will help me take care of my parents." ”
"Hmm. It's all trifles. ”
......
Coming to Broken Mountain again, Ling Jun did not let the guards inform the ghost, but walked in directly with Atai. As soon as he entered the clan, he heard the sound of the ghost wheeling a sledgehammer in the forge workshop, Ling Jun took a closer look, and the ghost was still the same, shirtless, casting the nether fire while forging weapons with a sledgehammer.
"How come Master Ling has the time to come to Broken Mountain to be a guest?" the ghost didn't look back and knew that Ling Jun had arrived, and asked with his back to Ling Jun while wheeling the sledgehammer.
"Haha! Brother Ghost is really powerful, he actually knows that I am coming!Okay, who do you think I brought you?" Ling Jun patted Atay's heavy shoulder and said.
The ghost stopped what he was doing, turned around and looked, and when he saw Atai, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said, "The man is tall and big, and he has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, but he has a good body?"
"Tsk, good eyesight! This kid's name is Ah Tai, and he is a hunter from my Lingmen Orion Village, and this manpower is infinite, just for your use!" Ling Jun gave a thumbs up.
"Come, let me see how strong I have?" said the ghost, leaning over to the stone table next to him, and stretched out his palm, as if he wanted to break his wrist with Atai and test his strength.
Ling Jun poked Ah Tai, who was in a daze, and said with a smile: "Why are you stunned? If you win him, this ghost clan will be renamed the Tai ghost clan in the future!"
Ah Taihan smiled and scratched his head, and said in a muffled voice: "How can I win the ghost patriarch as an ordinary person!"
"How can you know you can't do it if you don't try?" Ling Jun pushed Ah Tai again and said.
Ah Tai walked forward slowly, sat down opposite the ghost, put his arm as thick as an ordinary person's thigh on the table, reached out and shook the ghost's palm, and said in a muffled voice: "Patriarch, be merciful!"
"Come!"
After the ghost finished speaking, he shook Atai's big hand, and the two of them instantly burst out with a burst of strange power, comparing each other together!
In terms of the ghost's physique, his hands were wide enough, but when the ghost held the palm of his hand with Atai's hand, he realized that Atai's hand was even bigger than the ghost's hand!
"Drink!"
"Humph!"
The hands of the two were tightly clenched, and both sides were tense, and their faces were flushed, and they couldn't tell the difference between up and down for a while!
I thought that the ghost would crush this stunned young man with his strong strength, but I didn't expect Atai to be so strong, and he was on par with the dignified ghost clan patriarch!
The more Ling Jun watched it, the more interesting it became, the contest between the two was purely a confrontation of strength, and the ghost did not use a trace of spiritual power to enhance himself, so it was really difficult to distinguish who was up and who was down for a while!
Moments later......
With a muffled sound of "bang!", Atai's hand was pressed heavily on the stone table by the ghost, and in the end, it was the ghost who won the battle of strange power by a slight advantage!
"Good, good, good!" the ghost said three times in a row, his face full of admiration for Artai.
"The patriarch has won!" said Atai with a fist in his fist.
"Don't call me patriarch in the future!"
"What's that called?"
"Call Master!"
