Chapter 19: Ambitious
"Senior brother, let's go!" Daming led Li Jin behind him out of his house and greeted Wen Qiang, the fat senior brother in the square. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info to say that the two of them have all broken through their own bottlenecks for more than two years and opened up their own small universe, so it stands to reason that they can leave the school now, but seeing that the senior brother insisted on staying to help the master take care of the martial arts hall after breaking through the bottleneck, and then thinking of the kindness of the master and his wife to him, the two of them also stayed together, so the Dongpo martial arts hall also has a trace of its original appearance, and now the two of them are ranked behind Wen Qiang as the coach elder of the martial arts hall.
Today is the day when Gut City honors the Empire's orders to recruit disciples. The hall owner Su Shi has been even more ambitious in the past year or so, and he has been too lazy to recruit disciples in the past, and this time he also specially called a few proud disciples to join him, but also to strengthen the prestige of the martial arts hall, so as not to make people look down.
"Wait a minute! The little junior brother also wants to open his eyes, wait for him. Fat Senior Brother Wen Qiang attacked the two of them. At this time, Wen Qiang is no longer the chubby appearance he was at the beginning, not only is he mighty, but his body is also as strong as a mountain, which makes people look invisibly revealing a fierce domineering. His cultivation has long surpassed that of all his junior disciples, and now he counts him in the martial arts hall except for his master Su Shi. A veritable leader.
"Hey! This is really rare! Doesn't this kid even recognize where the door of the martial arts hall is open? Every day, in addition to begging people to beat him, he actually thinks of where to play, it's a strange thing in the world! Hahahaγγγγγγ "Da Ming's words can be said to be true and reliable, to say that they are also cultivating very hard now, but compared to Qin Jian, it is not a little worse. According to their brothers, it is. "This kid is not a person from this planet at all, he only knows how to cultivate, cultivate and cultivate again like crazy. "Even if he is a little free, he only spends time in the study, and he never knows how the word lazy is written, and sometimes even Master Su Shi can't stand it, and he is kind enough to persuade him to rest and rest, but he just nods, and after leaving, he is engaged in crazy cultivation.
Wen Qiang said with deep understanding: "Yes, according to the cultivation method of the junior brother, why is our Dongpo Martial Arts Hall like this, in the future, we must work hard, and when this batch of disciples is recruited, you will all give me snacks." β
"Yes, big brother, don't worry! Now we are not the same as we were then. At this time, although the fat senior brother Wen Qiang was just a casual sentence, it was not much worse than Su Shi in the ears of Daming and Li Jin.
"Fat brother, I'm here. Qin Jian, who was wearing a white robe with a heroic knot on his head, rushed out of his room and greeted the three people in the square heroically.
"Tut-tut! My God! Senior brother, I don't think it matters if we recruit disciples today, this heavy responsibility to protect the little junior brother is extremely arduous! It's not like you'll be robbed by that young lady as soon as you get on the road! Hahahaγγγγγγ β
"Senior Brother Daming, don't make fun of me!" Qin Jian said as he shook off his long hair floating in front of him a little shyly, looking very much like a girl who loves beauty.
"Oh my God! look, this look, this style, is a little more like a girl than those deep ladies. Li Jin and Da Ming laughed even more when they saw Qin Jian shaking his hair.
Fat Senior Brother Wen Qiang also nodded with a smile, urging: "Okay, let's go! Master and Master are still waiting for us there?" So the four of them hurried to the place where the disciples were recruited. This is still dozens of minutes away from the martial arts hall.
"Fat Senior Brother, are you also going to our Dongge Town to recruit disciples this year? If so, you can see my father and my mother. Qin Jian asked as he hurried.
Wen Qiang looked at Qin Jian's non-homely appearance beside him, and couldn't help but sigh and said: "Little junior brother, there are some changes in this enrollment, in the area under the jurisdiction of our Gute City, all the children who can reach the age are concentrated in the city, isn't this one move a year? The number of people has decreased accordingly, and they no longer recruit from place to place, and as long as the children who have reached the talent level will join the designated martial arts hall on the spot. I can't go down to your house anymore. Do you want to go home and see your parents?"
After the fat senior brother asked this, Qin Jian, who was hurrying away beside him, was suddenly silent. Thinking about it, who wouldn't miss their relatives if they left home at such a young age? Wen Qiang patted him on the shoulder with his hand and comforted him, and quickly quickened his pace, and the four of them quickly rushed towards the square where the disciples were recruited.
The large square in the center of Gute City, at least thousands of acres wide, is much larger than the square in Dongge Town, but now it is also flooded by the crowd. This time, Gute City includes the neighboring towns outside the city, and all the children and adults who participated in the recruitment gathered in the square at this time, although the overall number of people was much smaller than the previous one, but all gathered in one square also made the largest square in Gute City a little overwhelmed.
Qin Jian's four people all had the logo of the Dongpo Martial Arts Hall on their bodies, and it was easy to squeeze in through the passage opened up by those soldiers, and at this time, a high platform had already been set up in the middle of the square, on which were the heads of the large and small martial arts halls in the city. Wen Qiang led the three of them to hand the martial arts certificate to a guard soldier, and the soldier immediately let them in, at this time it was obviously close to the opening, and the soldiers guarding the square had begun to clear the field, so that the parents of those children withdrew from the square, and from the central position, they opened up a straight road to the high platform, and the four of them quickly came to the high platform.
Su Shi and Wu Sanniang on the stage had already seen them and beckoned to them, and the four of them hurriedly ran to their side. Su Shi frowned, and reprimanded softly: "What's the matter with you? β
Qin Jian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master, I want to open my eyes, but the senior brothers are late, please blame me!"
"It's not Master! It's because we're late, so we don't blame the little brother. Fat Senior Brother stopped Qin Jian.
Seeing that their brothers and sisters were so protective of each other, Su Shi felt relieved for a while, but in fact, he just scolded him casually, and it was over.
Wu Sanniang looked at the four of them with a smile, and said in a low voice: "You see that many people have already come to other martial arts halls, this time it is not like in the past, just send the responsible people, all the martial arts hall owners in Gute City came in person, and without exception brought the most proud disciples in their martial arts halls, obviously with some meaning to fight in the ring, although our Dongpo martial arts hall talents are withering, but we can't let them look at it less, you four stand up for me, let them also see if our martial arts hall is vegetarian." β
"It's my wife!" the four of them stood up one by one when they heard this.
"Oh! Brother Su Shi! I didn't expect your Dongpo Martial Arts Pavilion to be dormant for so long, and this time it was the right time to meetγγγγγγ! This kind of voice that is neither yin nor yang is spoken, and no one will feel that it is an old friend greeting. Qin Jian and the four of them frowned and looked at the comer.
"Huh, isn't this the Elder of the Martial Arts Pavilion who came to Dongge Town to recruit Xiao Lingling in the first place, Saint Xi?"
Su Shi coughed, barely smiled and arched his hand, "Who is my Dao?" It turned out to be Elder Shengxi, seeing the situation, you have broken through to the stage of resistance, and now the little brother will congratulate you!" Although Su Shi is also cultivating in the Nai He period, he has only been in the Nai He period for a few years, and his cultivation is also steadily improving and is close to the peak. Of course, this non-yin and non-yang greeting to him will reply to him like this, so as to make him lame.
"Hmph!" Sheng Xi snorted heavily, his face was so gloomy that he almost dripped water, and said in a strange voice: "The old man hopes that Brother Su Shi can break through the tolerance period as soon as possible, and then he can teach me some experience." β
"Haha!
Saint Xi was already bored, so he flicked his sleeves without saying more, and walked towards the place where the Yinwu Hall was located.
Qin Jian had already followed the figure of the saint westward at this time, and his heart couldn't help but jump, sure enough, behind a middle-aged man's chair, there was a slender figure standing with a smile, and he looked like a beautiful figure, although his appearance had changed a lot from when he was a child, but that beautiful and delicate face was still very similar to the beginning, Qin Jian recognized it almost at a glance, who was not Xiao Lingling? .
"She's grown so tall!" Qin Jian admired in ecstasy. It seems that he has not changed so much in the past two years. Since Qin Jian's Dongpo Martial Arts Pavilion was a little far away from the Sighing Martial Arts Gym, just as Qin Jian wanted to take a closer look at Xiao Lingling's appearance, a huge figure hidden beside Xiao Lingling also came into his eyes.
"This!This! Isn't this Big Brother Tie Niu? Why, he has also joined the Sigh Yin Martial Arts Gym. Although Tie Niu and Xiao Lingling have changed a lot, their general appearance is still there, so Qin Jian recognized him at a glance. At this time, Tie Niu's face is simple and his figure is as good as his name. It's a veritable big iron bull.
Tie Niu stood straight beside Xiao Lingling, more than a head taller than her, so that Xiao Lingling, who was already in shape, was only under her armpits. Qin Jian admired and couldn't help but secretly laugh, "This guy must have eaten a lot, otherwise how could he be so tall!" Tie Niu was originally two years older than Qin Jian, and now he is no worse than an adult, after all, people who cultivate martial arts are not comparable to ordinary people.
Just as Qin Jian was impulsively trying to run over to greet them, a voice like a bell sounded on the stage. It turned out that the ceremony had already begun. Su Shi commanded them, and Qin Jian had no choice but to force his mood and temporarily put aside the idea of running to say hello.
Today is the day when our Shenglong Empire holds the annual martial arts hall to recruit disciples, everyone knows that it has been held every five years, and this year the emperor issued an edict, and from now on, the disciple recruitment ceremony will be held every year. And the age has also been adjusted, whether boys and girls as long as they reach the age of six, the innate Dao can reach more than twenty can join the martial arts hall, the previous elimination or missed the age, as long as it is not more than twelve years old, this year can still be tested again. And this time, only children who have reached more than forty have the right to choose their favorite martial arts hall, and the rest of them must join their designated martial arts hall after drawing lots, which cannot be changed. And no matter which martial arts hall draws disciples can not refuse to accept, this year the emperor also issued a strict decree, no matter which selected children can afford the gift money can be selected for the martial arts hall, I hope that all the martial arts hall owners can seriously understand His Majesty's painstaking efforts. As he said this, the person who came to the stage to speak looked back at the many martial arts hall owners sitting on chairs behind him.
All the hall masters of the martial arts hall stood up at this time and said in one voice: "Please rest assured, the city lord, we will never violate the emperor's will." β
This year's recruitment of the martial arts hall is particularly unusual, in previous years, it was just a matter of sending a subordinate to preside, but this year it turned out to be the supreme administrator of Gute City who personally presided over it, which is not an ordinary level of attention.
In fact, the people of Mingli have long known that the empire can issue such a strict decree this time, but it is not just a matter of letting these martial arts halls accept a few more disciples at will, which martial arts hall can share more responsibilities for the country in this troubled autumn of the country, then the empire will definitely be inclined to it, and if you meet a martial arts hall at this time, it is very likely that it will be regarded as a dissident, so as to be directly wiped out. Conversely, it is possible to take advantage of the opportunity to soar. The owners of the martial arts halls in Gute City are well aware of this situation, so this time they not only came in person, but also brought their most proud disciples, which can be regarded as the most important disciple recruitment conference in a hundred years.
"Okay! Now please bring out the test stone and the elder in charge of the test this time. Soon a platoon of soldiers came up from behind the stage carrying three huge Dao Measuring Stones, and the three old men behind them slowly followed, they were the elders who were responsible for testing the children's innate Dao feelings this time.
After the Dao Love Stone and the three elders took the throne, the city lord of Gute City said loudly to the children below: "Children, the emperor is very concerned about your growth, as long as you cultivate well in the future, you are indispensable to serve the country, and the Golden Avenue has already been paved for you, work hard!" After the words of encouragement, he waved his hand below, and the guards quickly took the order, leading the children in front of him to the Dao Measuring Stone on the high platform. There are many affairs of the recruitment conference, including the city lord and his subordinates talking and doing things, all of which can be simplified. So everyone performed their duties and unfolded in order.
