"Chen Hao?" At the Xiao family's registration office, an old man who originally looked very kind suddenly turned cold and asked when he saw a young man in coarse linen clothes appear in front of him. (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)
Chen Hao was slightly stunned, did he offend this old man in any way? Hurriedly and cautiously said, "Yes, uncle." ”
"Have you ever been to school?" the old man asked coldly.
"I didn't ...... No. Hearing the old man's question, Chen Hao's little face suddenly turned red, and he said worriedly.
The school, which is a right only the children of the rich, can only be a luxury for Chen Hao.
"Take it, it's yours, it's yours too. The old man glanced at Chen Hao with disdain, directly threw Chen Hao a package, and then threw out a thick book, saying, "Ji Yuan, take him to the dormitory!"
That book, Chen Hao recognized, when Ergouzi first entered the school to study, he used the same book. Chen Hao took the package, picked up the book, and still stood still, looking at the old man in front of him worriedly.
"Why are you still stunned, don't affect the other disciples to report!" the old man said impatiently.
"Uncle...... No...... Do you still have a sword and a key?" Chen Hao didn't arrive too early, he was in the middle of the line, and when the other disciples reported to work, he also saw that the items he received were a package, a sword, and a key to the dormitory. The old man, however, gave himself an extra book, but seemed to have forgotten the sword and the key. This made Chen Hao slightly puzzled.
"Sword, you are not qualified enough, as a disciple of the Xiao family, you must have both civil and military skills, and you have never been to the school, how can you comprehend the mantra of the exercises?" Next!" the old man looked at Chen Hao with disdain and said, after speaking, he waved his hand directly and began to handle the next registration.
"Thank you, uncle. The innocent Chen Hao did not doubt him at all, but thought that what the old man said was very reasonable, and after bowing down and thanking him, he followed the disciple of the Xiao family who didn't look good.
After walking for two teas, under the leadership of the disciples of the Xiao family, Chen Hao came to a courtyard with the word "Xiang" written in front of the door, and there were exquisite huts in the courtyard, each of which was independent, different in size, with different numbers, surrounded by a circle of bamboo fences, and a small door. There are nearly a hundred such huts in the compound. Chen Hao looked at them one by one, and he found a rule, the bigger the number, the smaller the house, but even the smallest one was much larger than the slum where Chen Hao's family lived.
"Is this my dormitory?it's so big......" Chen Hao was secretly surprised in his heart, he thought that the newly recruited disciples of the Xiao family should be a few people living in one room, but he didn't expect it to be a separate courtyard, and it was very exquisite, and it looked very comfortable.
It's just that the disciple of the Xiao family who led the way didn't seem to have any intention of stopping at all, and still took Chen Hao inside, until he walked to the depths of the compound, and he didn't stop, Chen Hao was puzzled, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he followed stupidly, and after turning a few corners, a row of huts appeared in Chen Hao's eyes again. Compared to the huts I had just seen, these huts were much smaller, and they looked very shabby, bare, without bamboo fences, and the one on the far side was even more exaggerated, with holes in the walls and a tattered roof.
When Chen Hao was puzzled, the disciples of the Xiao family had already led him to the front of this row of houses, and suddenly turned to Chen Hao and said, "Boy, the most marginal and most broken one is your dormitory!"
Chen Hao was stunned for a while, but he was simple, although he was puzzled, although he was puzzled, he still didn't say much, he bowed to the Xiao family disciple, and said "thank you", the Xiao family disciple snorted coldly, turned around and left.
"Hmph, poor ghost, if you offend Senior Brother Ji Han, you will suffer in the future, the first will become the penultimate first, it's just the beginning......" After the Xiao family disciple turned to leave, a very light voice as if talking to himself clearly floated into Chen Hao's ears.
At this moment, Chen Hao's delicate face was first stunned, puzzled, and confused, and then showed strong anger!
That disciple didn't expect Chen Hao to hear it at all, because his voice was indeed very small, but he didn't know that Chen Hao had been different from ordinary people since he was a child, his hearing was several times better than ordinary people, and his eyesight was even more amazing, and he could clearly see mosquito legs ten meters away in the dark night!
Xiao Jihan ...... Who is he?" Chen Hao forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and walked towards the dilapidated house step by step.
No wonder I don't have a key, in such a house, the doors are all in tatters, where is the key?
It's just that he doesn't know why he has offended the person named Xiao Jihan when he just entered the Xiao family?
"Huh?" Just as Chen Hao was about to enter the house, next door to him, in a room that was only a little better than his room, a girl of the same age as Chen Hao walked out, who seemed to know Chen Hao, and looked quite surprised.
"I know you, strange...... Why did you come to live here? This should be the last place to live! You seem to be the first to pass the Xiao family test, right?" The girl looked very clever, her eyes were big and full of confusion, as if she couldn't understand why Chen Hao was placed here.
"Last place?"
"Well, don't you know? The people who live here are the last few in the test, and the better the test score, the better the house they live in, and you saw those numbers when you came here just now, right? That's all according to the test rank, I ...... I barely passed the guò test...... I thought I was the last one...... I didn't expect ...... But it shouldn't be, you should be number one, right? Strange, weird...... Oh, my name is Li Xiaoling...... Oh, no, I should be called Xiao Xiangling now, what's your name?" The girl chattered a lot, the girl knew Chen Hao, but she only knew the coarse linen clothes, but she didn't know the name.
Through the girl's words, Chen Hao figured out one thing, that is, the better the test score, the better the housing.
If you are placed here, it means that your test score is the bottom one. But I was the first to pass the guò test, how did I become the penultimate one?
Chen Hao's mind couldn't help but flash a name, Xiao Jihan!
However, Chen Hao was confused when he heard the girl's words, and vaguely guessed that it seemed that when he entered the Xiao family, his original name would be changed.
"My name is Chen Hao!"
"Chen Hao, Xiao Xianghao, not as good as Chen Hao......"
"Do we have to change our name? I don't know much about the rules of the Xiao family. Chen Hao said.
"Hee-hee...... The rules of the Xiao family, there is nothing I don't know. I sue you!" The girl looked very cute with a smug smile on her face, and said: "If you become a disciple of the Xiao family, you will be given the surname by the Xiao family, and you will all have the surname Xiao." The disciples of the Xiao family are divided into inner disciples and outer disciples, like us, they are outer disciples. This was also something that began twenty-four years ago. ”
"In addition to changing the surname of the outer disciples, there are also character generations, 'thousands of generations, eternal auspicious', which is the character generation of the outer disciples from one generation to eight generations of disciples, we are eight generations of disciples, so our name 'Xiao Xiang' is fixed, and my original name is Li Xiaoling, so I will be called Xiao Xiangling......!
"Unless what?"
"Unless you become a guest of the Xiao family, you can restore your real name. When the girl said the word Keqing, her eyes were full of longing and respect.
"Keqing, what is that?" Chen Hao asked suspiciously.
Xiao Xiangling was speechless for a while, it seemed that this guy in front of her really didn't know anything about the Xiao family, fortunately, one of her favorite things was to answer questions for others, and patiently explained: "The Xiao family's guest is second only to the Xiao family's head of the family, only the top master who has reached the Nine Rank Martial Emperor can become the Xiao family's guest qing, and at that time, he will not be restricted by the Xiao family, and he can restore his original name." ”
"But...... That's too difficult, I just need to become an inner disciple, an inner disciple, I can't change my surname, but I can change my name at will, I don't need to follow the characters of the outer door. Got it?"
"Understood. ”
No matter how difficult it is, I, Chen Hao, will definitely become a guest of the Xiao family and restore my real name!
"Is there any more problem? My little Ling'er knows everything...... Hee-hee!" Xiao Xiangling was very proud that she had the opportunity to show herself, and she liked this feeling very much.
"You, do you know Xiao Jihan?" Looking at Xiao Ling'er's face that seemed to be really omniscient, Chen Hao asked the question in his heart.
"Xiao Jihan?" Xiao Ling'er was slightly startled, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes, and said: "Of course I know that the number one master among the seventh generation of disciples of the Xiao family's outer sect, after the seventh generation of disciples, is the most promising genius who is the first to become a disciple of the inner sect." It's just that I only know him, and I haven't seen a real person. Do you know him?"
"I don't know!" Looking at Xiao Ling'er's envious expression, Chen Hao's already suppressed anger suddenly rose again, clenched his fists tightly, and said coldly. After speaking, he ignored Xiao Ling'er's surprise and walked directly to the dilapidated house.
......
Pushing away the broken door that could be kicked away, Chen Hao walked into his own dormitory. Fortunately, the house is quite clean, although there are many holes in the four walls, and there are a few small "skylights" in the roof, but compared to the slum where he once lived, the ventilation and lighting are much better, it is simply "ventilated on all sides, lit on all sides", and it is not so damp!
A simple wooden bed with futons stacked on top of each other. There are some simple household utensils in the corner of the house, and nothing else.
Simply spread out the futon, picked up a few buckets of water from the spring pool a hundred meters away from the dormitory, filled the water tank, Chen Hao took off his only set of coarse linen clothes, folded them neatly, and put them in the corner of the bed. wiped his body and changed into a set of clothes provided by the Xiao family, from the inside to the outside, they are all milky white, the texture is soft, and it feels very comfortable to wear on the body, with a black "Xiao" word embroidered on the left chest, and a number embroidered under the word Xiao, "Ninety-nine"!
He is the last one, that is to say, there are a total of ninety-nine disciples of the Xiao family recruited this year!
People rely on clothes, horses and saddles, Chen Hao changed into this clothes, and the whole person suddenly seemed a lot more energetic, and he could no longer see the appearance of a poor boy. He is already delicate and full of spirituality, but he looks even more handsome.
One after another, it lasted until the evening, and all the disciples of the Xiao family who rushed to report for duty finally arrived, and the new members who were arranged in the broken house near Chen Hao also arrived one after another. It's just that what Chen Hao didn't expect was that a total of ten broken houses, except for himself, were all girls, and he became the only man here......
And last place!
Why did you become the last one to pass the guò test first?
When the Xiao family was selected for the first time, they didn't mention whether they had gone to school or not, so why did they become a disciple of the Xiao family?
Xiao Jihan!
One qiē is the inexplicable Xiao Jihan!
......
"All the new members listen to the order, after a quarter of an hour, the Xiao family martial arts arena will assemble, and they must not be late! All the new members will listen to the order, after a quarter of an hour, the Xiao family martial arts arena will assemble, and they must not be late......"
Just when Xiao Ling'er and the other eight girls were chattering non-stop, and Chen Hao was alone in the room looking at the book that he didn't know a word except for the numbers in it, a majestic voice came into everyone's ears, the sound was not loud, but it seemed to ring in the ears.
Chen Hao hurriedly walked out of the house and walked out quickly with Xiao Ling'er and the others.
Chen Hao...... What happened to you just now?" Xiao Ling'er couldn't help but ask after seeing Chen Hao.
"Nothing. Excuse me...... Let's go!" Chen Hao said as he changed the subject.
......
Martial arts arena, on a high platform. Xiao Guan, who was dressed in black, still stood with his hands in his hands, his sharp eyes staring at the new members who came one after another, and he was quite satisfied, because the overall level of the disciples admitted this year exceeded that of any class, and there were several very outstanding teenagers, especially the young man in coarse linen clothes called Chen Hao, which shocked and delighted Xiao Guan.
His eyes scanned the crowd, as if he was looking for someone, but he never appeared, and when he saw Number One appear, his brow furrowed slightly, what was going on?
No. 1 should be the coarse linen boy, right...... Didn't he report for duty?
Xiao was concerned about a trace of doubt, and turned his head to look at the old man sitting behind him.
This old man is the old man who is in charge of receiving the new disciples, the sixth elder of the Xiao family, Xiao Bo, who is second only to the Xiao family's guest qing, but more important than the Xiao family's guest qing.
Because, Keqing means freedom, and it is just a formal and moral constraint on the Xiao family, if you are happy, you can do it, if you are not happy, you can pat your ass and leave. And the elder is the real Xiao family.
Which is more important, you can know it at a glance!
It is Xiao Guan, the chief instructor of the disciples of the Xiao family, who is one level inferior to him and is directly in charge of him.
"Sixth Elder, what's wrong with the first place?" Xiao Guan turned around and asked.
