Chapter Seventy-One: The Master of the Gate
Feng Heng saw that there were all humanoids*, some were gorgeously dressed and majestic, and some were messy with sideburns and dirt, but they all had one thing in common, Feng Heng could feel that they all had surging fire elements on their bodies, obviously this group of people were all people who had been dealing with fire for a long time.
Seeing that more than a dozen people had come, but they were all quiet and silent, Feng Hengyin thought that they were waiting for the hall master to come, and sure enough, he saw two old men with gray hair entering the hall one after the other, and everyone present stood up to salute and called the hall master and deputy hall master.
The old man in the lead looked a little majestic, waved his hand calmly, and motioned for each to sit down before leading the deputy hall master behind him to sit down on the main seat.
After he sat down, he also looked at Feng Heng for a while before saying, "The fifth elder urgently called us here, I don't know what is going on?"
The Fifth Elder arched his hand solemnly and said, "Hall Master, this disciple is likely to be the person we are looking for. ”
"Huh?" As soon as these words came out, not only the hall master and deputy hall master in the hall, but even the others were also stunned, and immediately frowned one by one and looked at Feng Henglai carefully.
Feng Heng looked a little uncomfortable at the burning gaze of a group of old men, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Disciple Liuyun, I have seen the hall master and deputy hall master, and I have seen the elders. ”
The hall master smiled, "Yes, you use this word kindly." ”
Feng Heng's face couldn't help but turn red when he heard this, indeed, a low-level disciple like him should naturally say 'meet you' when he saw the head of the sect, not 'have seen'.
However, the hall master didn't care, and said to the five elders, "Let's talk about it specifically." ”
The Fifth Elder nodded and told everything he had seen today, highlighting Feng Heng's ability to ripen the eight Yang Spirit Grasses in a very short period of time.
After listening to his narration, the eyes of the group lit up, and the hall master couldn't wait to ask, "Do you really know how to ripen the technique?"
"This..."Feng Heng hesitated slightly, and then replied word-for-word as he had answered the Fifth Elder before.
The hall master nodded, "In this case, you may really be the person we are looking for, but the matter is very high, and we need to confirm it further, let me ask you, where did you learn that ripening technique?"
Feng Heng said calmly: "Back to the hall master, this technique is a disciple's family secret technique, speaking of which, this is also the first time to show it in front of outsiders, if it weren't for the disciple to encounter such a thing after entering the door, he wouldn't dare to leak it easily." ”
The hall master smiled slightly, "I understand what you mean, which means that you won't demonstrate on the spot, right?"
Feng Heng was a little embarrassed, "It's not that the disciple is unwilling, it's just that it's about the ancestral teachings of the family, and the disciple doesn't dare to disobey." ”
"It's a man of perseverance. The hall master looked at Feng Heng and said, "But this matter is related to my fortune, if you are really the person we are looking for, then you will have to show your ability in front of people, as for the violation of the ancestral teachings, I think the door master and the elders will compensate, of course, if you are not that person, everything will naturally be different." ”
Feng Heng thought for a while and said: "The disciple is a little puzzled, I don't know who the sect is looking for, the disciple is stepping out of the house for the first time this time, I'm afraid it is not the person the hall masters are looking for." ”
The hall master smiled, "This matter is a matter of sect secrets, I can't tell you for the time being, but whether it is someone who can judge it or not, not you and I have the final say, so let's do it, you stay here first, and then take you to meet the person who can judge you after I ask the sect." After saying that, he called the two disciples outside the door in and ordered him to take Feng Heng to the guest room to rest.
Feng Heng retired with uneasiness and apprehension, and the people here began to discuss something again.
Those two disciples had never seen Feng Heng before, although they saw him wearing the disciple uniform of Qianqiu Gate, they couldn't guess his identity for a while, although he had been standing outside the door, but unless the hall masters and elders who were meeting inside wanted them to hear them, they couldn't hear the conversation inside, and almost every hall with a slight grade of such a device was set up.
Therefore, for a while, he was only regarded as the senior brother in the door, and he was respectful all the way, and those who could usually enter the main hall of Dantang were generally amazing people, and his identity was naturally much higher than that of the people who guarded the door.
Feng Heng didn't break it, but he was happy to be sought after by them, and followed the two of them all the way to a guest room to rest.
After the two of them retreated, Feng Heng was a little bored, and he only guessed what kind of medicine these people from Qianqiumen were selling in the gourd, all of them were mysterious, but judging from the tone of the hall master, the person they were looking for must be very important.
Feng Heng never felt that he was the person they were looking for, although he did know how to mature, but thinking about his own experience, he really didn't have anything to do with them.
But the matter has come to this point, and there is only peace when it comes, and now the aura here is so strong, it is a pity to waste it, so I simply closed my eyes and meditated, and began to cultivate.
This sat directly until the afternoon, Feng Heng, who was cultivating, was suddenly awakened by the sound of footsteps, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the door was pushed open, and a large group of people walked in.
Feng Heng was so anxious that he didn't see anyone clearly, so he hurriedly jumped out of bed to give a salute, only to find that the leader was not the previous hall master, but a middle-aged man with an extremely majestic face, to Feng Heng's surprise, the previous hall master was only following behind a few people, obviously the previous few people were much higher than him.
"The door master is coming, and he hasn't seen the courtesy yet!" Seeing that Feng Heng was a little stunned, the hall master hurriedly spoke.
Feng Heng was taken aback, it turned out that this was the true face of the door master? Hurriedly saluted, unexpectedly, the door master smiled and said: "Sure enough, it's you, but you are really a diligent disciple, speaking of which, we have met several times." ”
Feng Heng respectfully should be, thinking that you have seen me several times, but this is the first time I have seen you.
"The first day we met, I thought you were a little interesting, obviously you only have 3,000 catties of strength, but you can hit 6,000 catties, and your boxing skills are also strange. The master laughed.
"This..."Feng Heng was a little embarrassed, it turned out that they had already seen that they were cheating, but fortunately they were not broken that day.
"But the second and third rounds of testing you are a little disappointing, let me ask you, why are you willing to be ridiculed and be the last one to come out in the second round?
Feng Heng smiled embarrassedly, the so-called real person didn't tell a lie in front of him, only said: "The disciple is only here to learn alchemy, and he doesn't want to enter the core hall." ”
"Don't want to, the tone is not small, but I barely have the qualifications to say this, I know how to forbear at a young age, and unswervingly follow my own path, I am a talent. The master of the door said with some appreciation, "Put the rest aside, this time I came in person, I guess you know the reason more or less?"
Feng Heng hurriedly said, "The disciple just heard that the sect is looking for someone, but the disciple is a little scared, I'm afraid that it is not the person the sect is looking for." ”
The door owner's face was relaxed, "Yes and no, you can know if you try it." After speaking, he reached into his arms and took out a box, he opened it gently, and saw a round jade pendant lying inside, this jade pendant was transparent in color, like a pool of autumn water, but there was a ball of red in the center, like ink and blood, full of spiritual charm.
"Stretch out your right hand. The door owner said solemnly.
Although Feng Heng had some doubts, he could only obediently hand over his right hand.
The master of the sect carefully took out the jade pendant, put it in Feng Heng's palm, and said, "Hold it tightly and calm down." ”
Feng Heng did as he said, closed his eyes and concentrated, and felt like he was being used as an experiment.
"This...!"
"Ahh
"Sure enough, it's him!"
Feng Heng closed his eyes, but he heard a sound of surprise around him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that his right hand was glowing red, which looked bright and dazzling.
Feng Heng was shocked, his breath was naturally disordered, and his right hand immediately returned to normal, and he was about to say something, but he heard the master of the door laugh, and said three good words in a row before saying, "I finally found you!"
Feng Heng hurriedly put the jade pendant back, and there was no surprise in his heart, but he was a little scared for no reason.
The master smiled at him like this, looked him up and down as if he were looking at a work of art, and then ordered everyone to go out first.
Naturally, the people behind did not dare to disobey, and obediently withdrew to close the door.
Here the master smiled again and said, "My surname is Qian, you can call me the master of the Qianmen." ”
"The master of the Qianqiu Gate is surnamed Qian?" Feng Heng was a little surprised, of course he didn't dare to show it on his face, and only respectfully called the master of the Qianqiu Gate.
The Thousand Sect Master looked very happy, "Since it has been determined that you are the person we are looking for, there is no need to hide it from you, do you know why I appeared on the entrance test for new disciples?"
Feng Heng shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
The Thousand Door Master smiled, "Just to wait for you!"
Feng Heng swallowed his saliva and didn't know what to say, but he listened to the master of the Thousand Doors and continued: "The Qianqiu Gate was founded by the ancestors of my thousand families, and it has been passed down to countless generations today. ”
Feng Heng didn't know what he was going to say, so he only listened carefully.
"In the eyes of outsiders, my Qianqiumen is rich and prosperous, but in fact, my Qianjiajia has an unknown secret, that is, since the founding of the Qianqiumen generation of ancestors, the Qianjiajia is like being cursed, each generation can only give birth to one, and all of them are men, without exception. ”
"But..."The face of the Thousand Sect Lord changed, "There has been a miracle in my generation, I gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and this time I am looking for you for my son and daughter!"
Feng Hengyi frowned, still not understanding what he meant.
The face of the master of the thousand doors was like a change of face, he was excited for a while, uncomfortable for a while, and finally turned helpless, and said quietly: "I was so happy that I burst into tears, especially since I dreamed of a daughter. ”
Feng Heng saw his face and knew that something bad must have happened later.
