Chapter Twenty-Six: Drawing into the Way
As soon as he got down from the Yellow Crane, the heads of the five major families, as well as the heads of several big towns around him, all surrounded him, and they all greeted him with a burst of cold and warmth.
Next, dozens of disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect, or people who were deacons, jumped down from the other two yellow cranes, and after everyone was polite, one of the dozen or so people who looked like a middle-aged deacon came to the old man of Yellow Crane and said respectfully:
"Peak Master, the auspicious time has arrived, why don't we start here?"
At this time, the old man Huang He, who was already sitting on the main seat, bowed his head slightly, slowly got up and came to the edge of the high platform, first waved his hand slightly to everyone in the audience, and a powerful aura fluctuation immediately swept the audience, making the originally noisy crowd in the audience suddenly quiet.
And Ye Xiu also felt this powerful aura fluctuation, although the feeling of this fluctuation to Ye Xiu was far inferior to the divine thoughts of the mysterious woman in the Taishang Forgetfulness Sect, but compared to his current self, he didn't know how much stronger, which made Ye Xiu secretly sigh that the old man of Yellow Crane was so strong.
After seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Old Man Huang He nodded with satisfaction:
"The old man's name is Huang He, he is the peak master of the thirty-six peaks of the Heavenly Dao Sect, the peak master of the painting peak, this time as a messenger to Wuling City to recruit disciples, I hope that all the young talents with recommended qualifications will perform well in the future. In addition, the old man came this time for this important purpose, which is to find someone who is destined to be accepted as my closed disciple. ”
The voice of the old man Huang He was extremely kind and gentle, but it reached everyone's ears very clearly.
After hearing his last words, a sound of surprise suddenly came from the originally quiet crowd in the audience.
You must know that the people who came to this square today, even if they are not cultivators, they know the way very well, who has not heard of the prestige of this Heavenly Dao Sect, the peak master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, one of the four major sects of the White Tiger Domain, personally accepted disciples, how could they not make everyone excited, it was a personal disciple, it was simply a step to the sky!
The old man of the Yellow Crane used his spiritual power again, waved his hand to the audience to signal everyone to be quiet, and then with a wave of his big sleeves, there were dozens of huge pictures with a height of one story appeared in front of the whole person out of thin air, and the picture scrolls all depicted the life of the Yellow Crane, among which the Yellow Crane either flying, or resting, or fishing, or playing, all of them are lifelike and fascinating!
Looking at these paintings, the old man Huang He touched his beard with satisfaction and said in a loud voice:
These dozens of paintings are the most satisfying paintings in the old man's life, but unfortunately the old man has always felt that there is something missing in this scroll! It is precisely because of this that the old man's cultivation has not been able to improve, and he has been trapped in the realm of the three Taoist masters for many years. ”
Speaking of this, the old man Huang He's eyes also showed a trace of gloom, because he still had a sentence that he didn't say, that is, he calculated that the limit was coming, if he couldn't break through in this last year, he would fall, and when the time came, he didn't recruit children in his life, his fall was small, and the inheritance of the broken painting peak was big, I am afraid that even if he died, he would not have the face to see his master and ancestor.
Thinking of this, he waved his sleeves again, and dozens of paintings scattered to the crowd below, and then said:
"Everyone present, regardless of whether they are qualified to recommend or not, as long as they can solve the defects in this picture scroll, the old man will agree to accept him as a personal disciple. ”
Turning around and nodding to the middle-aged deacon-like person from before, he continued:
"Okay, the old man will stay in Wuling City for three days, and now this disciple selection will officially begin!"
After saying that, he gave up the position of the presiding podium to the middle-aged deacon, and he returned to his seat and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Next, naturally, under the arrangement of the middle-aged deacon, the regular selection of introductory disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect began, but at this time, most people's minds were placed on the picture scroll released by the old man Huang He before.
Just kidding, as long as you understand this picture scroll, you can be directly promoted to a personal disciple, not to mention that most of the people present have no recommendation, and they came to see the excitement, and now that everyone has the opportunity, who still has time to see the excitement.
So an unprecedentedly strange scene appeared, dozens of children of the family on the stage were being selected, but none of the people in the audience looked up at the stage, but all gathered in front of this picture scroll to meditate.
At this time, Ye Xiu and Chen Ping were also walking together in this square at this time, going back and forth a large number of these picture scrolls, their selection was scheduled for the next day, so now there was just time, thinking that if they could become a personal disciple, they would be able to get more cultivation resources and improve their strength earlier to see Ling'er, Ye Xiu naturally would not let go of this opportunity, but after carefully observing more than a dozen picture scrolls, Ye Xiu was also at a loss.
I have to say that although the cultivation of this old man of Yellow Crane is nothing in this White Tiger Domain, his painting work has really reached the peak, and every painting is impeccable, so that people can't find a trace of flaws. Even Ye Xiu, who had seen countless famous paintings in his previous life, was impressed, but why did the old man Huang He say that his paintings were flawed!
After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Xiu inadvertently came to a picture scroll, and when he looked up to see the contents of the picture scroll, his heart was suddenly shocked, how could it be? How could there be such a coincidence!
I saw that the painting in the painting is a sea of fog by the river, there is a quaint pavilion in the high mountains by the river, an old man with fairy wind bones is riding a yellow crane at this time to fly towards the depths of the sea of fog in the west, although the painting is extremely exquisite, but it is faintly desolate, it is not difficult to see that the artistic conception of the old man of the yellow crane has a trace of depression when painting.
In this situation, Ye Xiu couldn't help but chant the poems that were impressive in his previous life:
"In the past, people have taken the yellow crane to go, and the yellow crane tower is vacant here!"
Ye Xiu's voice was not loud at this time, but it was suddenly noticed by the old man Huang He, who was closing his eyes on the surface, but in fact, he had already spread his divine sense all over the entire square.
He first muttered a sentence of the poem Ye Xiu had recited, and then suddenly opened his eyes, and at a speed that was indistinguishable to the naked eye, he instantly came to the picture scroll where Ye Xiu was standing.
At this time, a huge paintbrush appeared in his hand at some point, and Ye Xiu found that the ink on this paintbrush gradually began to circulate on its own, which was obviously a special Dao weapon.
The old man Huang He first looked at the scroll in front of him excitedly, and the moment the ink flow on the brush was completed, he suddenly moved, the pen walked the dragon, the brush in his hand was like flowing water, and in the blink of an eye, a line of poems appeared on the scroll, and the content of the poem and the original scroll, whether it was the layout, style, or artistic conception were perfectly integrated, as if it should have been born like this!
Looking at the extremely satisfying picture scroll in front of him, the old man Huang He laughed heartily, and a powerful aura fluctuation naturally spread out from his body, instantly sweeping the entire Wuling City, and the accumulation of many years was vented at this moment, he actually broke through the gap just now and entered the realm of Dao Sect!
And his almost exhausted vitality became full again, and his whole body became radiant.
At this time, everyone present, including Ye Xiu, felt the tremendous changes in the old man Huang He, and several fast-reacting family masters and deacons of the Heavenly Dao Sect immediately greeted them with smiling faces and congratulated:
"Congratulations to Huang Lao on his promotion to the Yellow Crane Road!"
"Congratulations..."
The other family owners who were slow to react heard the words of a few people at this time, and they also reflected one after another, and the crowd soon gathered around the old man Huang He in a big circle.
It's just that the old man Huang He didn't rush back at this time, but jumped out of the crowd with a flash, and came to Ye Xiu, who had been squeezed out of the crowd at this time, and looked at him with satisfaction and said:
"Yes, yes! A good sentence in the past has taken the yellow crane to go, and the yellow crane tower is vacant here!"
Then he asked Ye Xiu kindly:
"What's your name, would you like to be my Yellow Crane's disciple?"
Originally, Ye Xiu just wanted to join the Heavenly Dao Sect with his own strength and become an ordinary disciple first, but he didn't expect that at this time, because of his casual words, he had the qualifications to directly become a true disciple, in order to become stronger, in order to see Ling'er earlier, he did not hesitate at all, and directly saluted the old man Huang He respectfully:
"Disciple Ye Xiu, I've seen the master!"
"Good! good!"
It can be seen that the old man Huang He has two things on his mind in one day, and he is also in a good mood, so he even said three good words in a row!
At this time, among the crowd that was originally in a circle, there were many sharp-eyed people who also saw the scene just now, and they arched their hands to congratulate this side.
Among them, naturally, including the heads of the five great families, several of them recognized at a glance that it was Ye Xiu who was accepted as a personal disciple by the old man Huang He, and they all came up to congratulate him.
The happiest person is Chen Bufan, he is secretly happy in his heart that he really did not see the wrong person, this Ye Xiu is not only talented and extraordinary, but also has extraordinary luck, today he easily became a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and his future achievements will definitely be limitless, and the Chen family can climb the high branches before it takes off, not to mention far away, it depends on Chen Ping's future to join the Heavenly Dao Sect will inevitably be taken care of by him.
After that, naturally the old man Huang He put away all the picture scrolls, and the selection of disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect continued to proceed step by step, but these things had nothing to do with Ye Xiu, he and the old man Huang He agreed to leave Wuling City together in three days and set off for the Heavenly Dao Sect, and then returned to his residence to prepare simply.
However, although he had been in this Wuling City for nearly a year, Ye Xiu had nothing to remember except for Chen Ping's few friends, not to mention that several of them would join the Heavenly Dao Sect with him this time, but on the last night, when a few people parted for a small gathering, Ye Xiu remembered Yue Ling'er again, and couldn't help but secretly swear that he must speed up his cultivation so that he could see Ling'er again as soon as possible.
So three days later, Ye Xiu officially rode away on the crane and stepped into the next chapter of his quest for the Heavenly Dao!
