Chapter Twenty-Three: Receiving Disciples

Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhengyang City, in the hall of a separate courtyard, at this moment there are two people sitting Yudie and Hu Lei.

Yudie took a sip of hot tea, looked at the empty courtyard, and said depressedly: "Eighth Senior Brother, why hasn't he come yet?"

Hu Lei's face was also a little ugly, and he smiled wryly, "Don't worry, maybe I'll come later."

At this moment, the door of the courtyard opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in gray cloth and looked like a businessman walked in.

The man's name is Wang Xing, he is over thirty years old, and his identity is a merchant in Zhengyang City, but he is actually the external deacon of Huaiyang Gate.

Wang Xing's pace was brisk, and he was obviously also a cultivator, but his cultivation was progressing slowly, and there was no possibility of breaking through the Qi cultivation period, so he was arranged in the city to manage the business outside the Huaiyang Gate.

And these incomes need to be taken care of by external disciples in the human world.

When Wang Xing closed the door, he glanced behind him vigilantly, and only after making sure that no one was following him did he walk to the hall.

After coming to the hall, Wang Xing arched his hand and said respectfully: "Wang Xing, the external deacon of Huaiyang Gate, has seen two seniors."

There is no order of learning, and those who attain it are respected, and this is the case with those who are cultivators, and there is no relationship between generation and age.

For example, if a ten-year-old Gongji and a fifty-year-old Qi cultivation meet each other, the fifty-year-old cultivator still has to call the ten-year-old cultivator a senior.

Between internal disciples, in the case of the same realm, they are called senior brothers, and the same is true for external deacons.

Wang Xing had never joined the sect, and with his cultivation at the eighth level of the Qi cultivation period, he had only learned some superficial cultivation methods.

Yudie didn't have much expression on her face, and said solemnly: "Wang Xing, you came quite early this time, why didn't you bring a child over?"

Wang Xing seemed to have thought about how to answer, and began to say: "Senior, some time ago, a group of people came here to recruit disciples, and the disciples in Zhengyang City were forcibly taken away by them, we ......"

"What?" Hearing this, Yu Die suddenly stood up and slapped his palm on the table beside him, which instantly turned into sawdust, "This is the jurisdiction of our Huaiyang Sect, who dares to be so bold and come here to recruit disciples?"

The huge momentum emanated from Yu Die's body, making Wang Xing take three steps back before stabilizing his body, his face was full of horror, he didn't think much about it, and hurriedly said: "Senior, I also sent a few capable assistants to investigate this matter, but ......" His face sank, his mouth moved a few times, but he didn't say a word.

Yudie frowned, and said sharply: "If you have anything, just say it, I'm not an unreasonable person."

Wang Xing arched his hand again and said, "Senior, all the people I sent are dead, but I haven't found the whereabouts of that group of people."

Hu Lei also stood up at this time, this matter is likely to involve sect grievances, "Are the people you sent all cultivators in the Qi cultivation period?"

Wang Xing didn't dare to hide anything, and said in detail, "Senior, I sent six disciples, all of them are cultivators of the sixth layer of the Qi cultivation period, and the ordinary martial arts masters are not their opponents at all, they have all learned some simple escape techniques, and they can travel thousands of miles in a day, and as soon as they left Zhengyang City, they lost their contact information."

"Are they all dead?" Hu Lei took a deep breath to calm down as much as possible.

The master of the Qi training period, although Huaiyangmen doesn't care, although there are many external deacon disciples, but they are distributed in various counties and counties, and there are not many people.

These ten people are all Hu Lei's registered disciples, although they have not officially taught them cultivation methods, but they also have the status of master and apprentice.

Wang Xing was extremely worried in his heart, the disciples sent out were all dead, and he couldn't explain this matter at all, so he could only stubbornly say: "Senior, this matter ......"

Hu Lei waved his hand and said in a condensed voice: "Don't talk to me so much, I just ask you, are they all dead?" There was a slight anger in his voice, obviously trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart.

Wang Xing didn't dare to say more, he had already felt the calm before the storm, "All are dead." When he said four words, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, lowered his head, and did not look at Hu Lei's line of sight.

Hu Lei didn't get angry, but smiled coldly, "Okay, it's all dead, I'm going to see who dares to do something to us Huaiyangmen."

Although Hu Lei is only a master of the Gongji period, he dares to take care of this matter, because there has been an agreement between various sects, and cultivators above the Gongji period cannot participate in disputes between sects.

Of course, Hu Lei has the cultivation of the middle stage of Gongji, and he can give it a go.

The atmosphere in the room became awkward, Wang Xing's body trembled slightly, he was afraid that Hu Lei would not be able to control his emotions for a while, and he would kill him.

Wang Xing still underestimated Hu Lei, the mentality of the inner disciples is tenacious and abnormal, ordinary trivial things can't make him too angry, even if he is unhappy in his heart, he will not show it on the outside.

Yu Die also knew that the six dead people were Hu Lei's registered disciples, and seeing that he did not lose his mind as angrily as himself, he was even more impressed in his heart, and said to Wang Xing: "You go down first! We will deal with this matter, besides, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore, since those people can kill the six of them, it is not for you to manage."

Wang Xing didn't want to care about this matter at all, unless he was too long, and when he heard Yudie say this, he hurriedly said: "Senior, I know how to say it."

After Wang Xing left, Yudie saw that Hu Lei's face was a little ugly, and said, "Eighth Senior Brother, this matter has passed, I think it's still ......."

Hu Lei took a deep breath and said, "Senior sister, you go back first! Tell Master about this, and say that I will investigate."

Yudie shook her head and asked with some puzzlement: "Eighth Senior Brother, those people are just your registered disciples, why do you care about them?"

Registered disciples generally have poor qualifications and cannot break through the Qi cultivation period, and only by breaking through the original realm can they become official disciples.

Hu Lei sighed and said slowly: "Little junior sister, it's not that you don't know my style, although they are registered disciples, I still treat them as disciples."

Yudie didn't say anything more, and said, "In that case, I'll go with you!"

Hu Lei was slightly stunned, looked at Yudie with some disbelief, and said, "You're not afraid of being punished by the master?"

Yudie smiled wryly and said, "Don't be afraid, anyway, we all came out, and if we go back a few days later, Master won't blame us."

Seeing this smile, Hu Lei suddenly realized and said with a smile: "You want me to accompany you to eat more delicious food!"

Yudie stuck out her tongue mischievously and said, "Hehe, Eighth Senior Brother, you can see this!"

"What, let's leave now! Anyway, if you wait here, you won't be able to receive disciples." Hu Lei shrugged his shoulders and looked out the door.

Yudie had long wanted to leave, and said, "Let's go!" With that, she followed Hu Lei's side and walked out the door.

As soon as the two of them arrived in the courtyard, the courtyard door suddenly opened, and a young man walked in.

Seeing the stranger who suddenly appeared, the two of them were busy making a vigilant look, Hu Lei took a step forward, stood in front of Yu Die, and shouted, "Who are you?" He didn't make a move, because he felt that the other party was also a cultivator, and had a cultivation that was no less than his.

The young man who walked in was Ziqian, he followed here last night, but he didn't come in.

Ziqian closed the door briskly, and when he closed the door, he deliberately left his back to the other party, indicating that he had no malicious intent.

The two of them were slightly stunned, and soon understood this truth, and Hu Lei's tone softened a little, "This fellow Daoist, may I ask what you are doing here?"

Ziqian turned around and said, "Are you recruiting disciples here?"

Yudie walked briskly and asked in surprise, "How do you know that we are recruiting disciples here?" After speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing, and stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Hu Lei looked embarrassed, and the question he had originally thought of swallowed raw, "Yes, we are recruiting disciples here." Now that Yudie has said it, if she denies it again, she will definitely be disgusted by the other party.

"Do you think I'm suitable?" Ziqian said something that surprised the two of them.

"Ahem!" Hu Lei coughed dryly twice and said, "Fellow Daoist, aren't you joking with us?"

Yu Die also smiled and said, "Don't you know that the disciples we accept are all under the age of ten?"

Ziqian's face was solemn, without a hint of joking, and he asked rhetorically: "Can't you be over ten years old?"

"This ......" Hu Lei couldn't answer for a while, thought for a while, and then asked: "Fellow Daoist, do you really want to join our Huaiyangmen?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" Ziqian said solemnly.

Hu Lei nodded, a master of the Gongji period joined, Huaiyang Sect naturally welcomed, but there are some things that still need to be asked, "Have you joined the sect before?" who taught you a body of cultivation, and where were you born, and what relatives do you have at home...... He said ten questions in a row, as if he was investigating the household registration.

Ziqian also replied according to Zhang He's question, but he only said a word when talking about how to cultivate.

Regarding the obscure topic of how to cultivate, Hu Lei never thought that the other party would answer, after all, this is the other party's privacy.

After listening, Hu Lei said: "If what you say is true, Huaiyangmen is naturally willing to accept you as a loose cultivator, but I also have to take a look at your spiritual veins to see if you have any possibility of breaking through." With a movement of his wrist, a palm-sized transparent jade stone appeared in his hand, exuding a transparent halo.

With the jade in hand, Hu Lei said with a smile: "This is the spirit vein stone, which can test the spiritual vein attribute of a person, since the Taoist friend can reach the Gongji stage at a young age, the spiritual vein attribute must be good."

The jade drew an arc in the air and fell into Ziqian's hand, and Hu Lei's voice sounded again, "Input the true power into it, and the light shining on the spirit vein stone is your spirit vein attribute."

There are nine kinds of spiritual veins, and the colors they represent are also different, the five basic spiritual veins, the metallic is golden yellow, the wood attribute is green, the water attribute is blue, the fire attribute is red, and the earth attribute is yellow;

When Ziqian followed the method Hu Lei said and input the true power into the jade, the changes on the jade made Hu Lei and Yudie open their mouths wide at the same time.
