CHAPTER XXIII

After Lu Fan sighed for a while, he suddenly thought of Senior Brother Liu's words, he seemed to have been arranged to the miscellaneous servant when he was unconscious, and then looked at the two of them and asked:

"Ergou, Dasha, is that miscellaneous service really as Senior Brother Liu said, is it just a miscellaneous person from the sect?"

Shen Dasha patted his buttocks, stood up and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said slowly:

"Well, it seems to be the case, I have also heard it in the past two days, the people in the miscellaneous service department are all people who participated in the trial and did not pass, although it is said that they are just taking care of the children's living in the sect, and they have no status and are not treated well, but after all, they are still in the sect, and everyone still has the opportunity to participate in the second trial, so there are many people in the miscellaneous department, and most of them are unwilling to leave the sect..."

"Yes, I also heard that there are still many people in the miscellaneous service department who have not even passed the second trial, and they will never be able to step into the sect through the Thousand Step Stone in this life, but the sect is willing to provide the first two layers of the Shangqing Sect's mental method for those who choose to stay, if someone can reach the second level of consummation, they can make an exception to enter the Shangqing Sect and become a disciple of the outer sect, but there are very few such people..."

Zhang Ergou said on the side, two days ago, when several of them knew that Lu Fan was arranged to be placed in the miscellaneous service, they had already begun to collect information, and they thought that when Lu Fan woke up, they would have a general understanding.

Lu Fan's eyes froze, he didn't expect that this was all the loser's miscellaneous office, and there were so many sayings.

"Therefore, there are still most mortals in the miscellaneous servants, but there are also a few people who have cultivated the Shangqing Sect's mental method..."

Lu Fan pondered carefully, and as soon as his thoughts moved, a map appeared in his mind, and the location of the miscellaneous servant office was in an inconspicuous place at the foot of Zongmen Mountain.

"Let's go! Since this is already the case, according to what Senior Brother Liu said, I have to report to the miscellaneous servant office today..."

As he spoke, Lu Fan raised his feet and walked out, and Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha also hurriedly stood up and followed behind Lu Fan.

Walking out of the door, the dazzling sunlight made Lu Fan squint his eyes slightly, raised his right hand on his forehead, and raised his eyes to look around.

This place is very secluded, there are almost no disciples in sight, a path paved with gravel winds into the distance, the road is lined with flowers and plants, the shadows of the trees are swaying, and the green eyes are full of refreshment, and I can't help but feel happy.

Lu Fan was in a coma for two whole days, and he didn't come out of the house, and after getting used to it for a while, he put down his right hand, and the trial two days ago seemed to be like an illusory dream, which made Lu Fan a little unclear, but the scene in front of him reminded him of the cruel reality he was about to face all the time.

Lu Fan looked up at the sky, the blue sky was extremely clear, there was not a trace of clouds, and countless chaotic thoughts swayed up along the breeze, going to places that his body couldn't reach...

"Brother Fan, what's wrong?"

Zhang Ergou looked at the stunned Lu Fan, since the end of the trial, he found that Lu Fan was always stunned, and even looked a little similar to Shen Dasha, thinking strangely in his heart about the two fools standing side by side, looking up at the sky...

Suddenly, Zhang Ergou was stunned, something suddenly thought of in his mind, and slowly turned his head to look at Shen Dasha beside him, and his heart was shocked, he didn't expect that his fantasy would come true!

Shen Dasha looked at the sky with a deep face, his expression was solemn, and a trace of profundity flashed from time to time in the corners of his eyes, which made Zhang Ergou's scalp tingle...

"It's okay, let's go!"

Lu Fan twisted his neck, took a step forward and stepped onto the stone road, and walked towards the miscellaneous servants according to the place guided by the map in his mind.

Zhang Ergou looked at Lu Fan's somewhat gloomy back, scratched the back of his head, and really couldn't figure out what Lu Fan thought in his heart, and then clenched his fists and followed behind Lu Fan.

Shen Dasha is also at a loss, since he entered the Shangqing Sect, his mind will always be blank unconsciously, and it is becoming more and more frequent, he is really afraid that if one day he is in danger, a stunned kung fu, his little life will be over.

"Hey!"

After a helpless sigh, Shen Dasha also caught up with Lu Fan in front of him with a lot of worry.

Along this winding stone road, the three of them walked with their own hearts, and they didn't care about the beautiful scenery along the way.

After a moment of age, the flowers and plants on both sides of the stone road faded, and the dense trees increased, and occasionally a few even grew on the road, so that the three of them had to slow down slightly.

At this time, it was not far from the direction of the miscellaneous office in Lu Fan's mind, and just when the three of them were worried about the new environment, there was a noisy noise in front of them.

After Lu Fan and the three of them heard this, their footsteps paused for a moment, and then they walked forward quickly, and it didn't take long for their eyes to become open.

Lu Fan raised his eyes and looked, the scene in his eyes at this time was incompatible with this magnificent Shangqing Sect, it was simply two worlds!

Rows of simple wooden houses are neatly arranged, but they are in disrepair, the broken wooden boards are full of traces of wind and rain, insects and rats, when the wind blows, even some wooden houses make a creaking and overwhelmed sound, and a slightly pungent smell also came out, so that the stunned three people hurriedly covered their mouths and noses.

In the center of the wooden house stands a small house made of rocks, but it stands out among the dilapidated wooden houses all around.

There was an open space in front of the stone house, and there was a scrawny boy lying in the clearing, covered with mud, covered with bruises, with blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, holding his head and begging for mercy.

The young man was surrounded by a circle of people, cursing and swearing, kicking and beating him constantly, all with hideous and vicious faces, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes from time to time.

"Stinky boy, you still dare to contradict Senior Brother Feng!"

"Hmph, if Senior Brother Feng hadn't let you stay here, you would have been driven down the mountain to make food for those jackals and beasts!"

"Are you so reluctant to let you do some work? Grandpa has to teach you a good lesson today! Otherwise, how will this miscellaneous service department be managed in the future, I want you to know that in the miscellaneous office, Senior Brother Feng is the sky!"

A tall and thin man in yellow clothes, with an indifferent face, a grass root in the corner of his mouth, squinting triangular eyes, leisurely looking at the scene in front of him, leaning against the wall of the stone house, watching coldly, not caring at all that the young man who was beaten on the ground was about to die.

The people around were also silent, some looked at the young man on the ground, with a trace of sympathy in their eyes, while others trembled with excitement and gloated.

The man leaning on the stone house seemed to find Lu Fan and the three people not far away, his eyes lit up, and then he spit out the grass roots in his mouth, clapped his hands, and walked slowly towards Lu Fan in all directions.

The people who were beating the young man lying on the ground also stopped when they heard the clapping sound, and followed the man with a flattering face.

The people around were also very curious, and looked at Lu Fan and the three of them, not knowing what their origin was, but they also slowly followed.

The man walked to Lu Fan's side, looked up and down, and then looked at Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha, who were wearing the red robes of the outer disciples behind Lu Fan, and slightly restrained his arrogance, his body was a head taller than Lu Fan, his chin was slightly raised, his eyebrows were raised, and he looked down at Lu Fan arrogantly.

"Who are you, and what are you doing at my miscellaneous office?"

Lu Fan looked up at the thief-eyed man in front of him, and after a little thought in his heart, he knew that he might be the person in charge of this miscellaneous service.

"I've seen Senior Brother, Senior Brother Lu Fan, behind me are my two friends, Senior Brother Liu from the outer gate was ordered by the sect to arrange me into the miscellaneous office, and I hope that Senior Brother will take care of me in the future. ”

The man in yellow listened impatiently, tiptoeing at his nails, and didn't take Lu Fan in his eyes, but when he heard Lu Fan's words, his body suddenly paused, and he looked at Lu Fan with his mouth open, with a tremor in his voice.

"Say it again, what's your name?!"

"Senior brother Lu Fan. ”

Lu Fan didn't know why this person reacted so much when he heard his name, he hugged his fists again, and the corner of his eyes inadvertently swept over the scarred young man lying on the open ground, and couldn't help but feel a strong disgust towards the person in front of him.

The man's eyes widened, and after maintaining the position he had just held for a moment, he suddenly burst into laughter!

"Hahaha! Lu Fan! He is Lu Fan! Did you hear, this person is Lu Fan!"

The people around looked at the man who was smiling and leaned back, and their hearts felt strange.

Among the people who followed the man, there was a man with a rickety upper body and a yellow robe, who also laughed, his expression was very stiff, and there were doubts in his eyes, obviously he didn't know what Senior Brother Feng was laughing at, because he didn't want to touch his head and make Senior Brother Feng dissatisfied, so he simply laughed together.

Laughing and laughing, he suddenly stopped, stretched out his right hand and pointed at Lu Fan in surprise, remembering an incident that was rumored in the sect a few days ago, and the protagonist of that incident was named Lu Fan!

"Lu Fan... Lu Fan! You are Lu Fan! Senior Brother Feng, he is Lu Fan? Is it the one who stopped at the tenth order in the Thousand Steps Stone, and is known as a peerless waste material that is rare to see in the Shangqing Sect in a hundred years?!"

When everyone heard the words of this rickety man, they couldn't help but gasp, thinking about a rumor that had flowed out of the trial place a few days ago, and then they all gathered around, with naked mockery in their eyes, and burst into laughter in an instant!

Lu Fan and the three of them were startled by the scene in front of them, and they all took a few steps back, Zhang Ergou and Shen Da were stupid, and stood up and shouted to everyone:

"What are you doing! You are all eliminated in the Land of Trials! What right do you have to laugh at others!"

Zhang Ergou's face was flushed angrily, his eyes were glaring, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up to ask everyone for advice!

Shen Dasha also stared at the people around him, silently picked up a wooden board from the ground that was about to rot, grabbed it in his hand, and followed Zhang Ergou to everyone!

"Ergou! Dasha! Come back!"

Zhang Ergou and Shen Dasha paused, glared at the people in front of them hatefully, and then retreated in front of Lu Fan after waving their fists.

"Brother Fan, this kind of person should teach them a good lesson!"

Lu Fan looked coldly at the people in front of him who were pointing at him, and looked at the extremely arrogant Senior Brother Feng who was laughing, but his heart was calm.
