Chapter 1 Sweeping Boys
When the sky was bright, Yang Kai woke up, washed up a little, and walked out of the hut where he lived alone with a broom in the corner.
Standing at the door, he stretched his waist, glanced at the white of the fish belly that appeared on the edge of the sky, closed his eyes and enjoyed a moment of peace, then opened his eyes and danced the broom in his hand, burying his head in cleaning the dust and fallen leaves on the ground.
Dressed in green clothes, simple and clean, the old clothes are plain and white, and the young man is a few years old. Yang Kai's waist was as straight as a javelin, and even if he was doing the lowest work, the expression on his face was meticulous. The movement is very calm, the hands holding the broom do not use much force, the body does not even swing much, only with the rotation of the wrist, the broom is like an arm to make fingers, coming and going, with the movement of his steps, the dust and debris accumulated on the ground magically moved, as if he had grown two legs.
Yang Kai was a trial disciple of Ling Xiao Pavilion, and he began to cultivate in the sect three years ago, but until now, he had only cultivated to the third level of the body quenching realm. The brothers who entered with him had already far exceeded this stage, and they had the opportunity to worship the high-ranking people in the entrance and soared, but he could only sigh with admiration.
Three years of quenching the body and three layers, this kind of qualification can no longer be described by ordinary words, it can be said to be extremely mediocre.
Helpless, Yang Kai could only take a job of sweeping the floor in the sect, and cultivated hard while making a living.
Lingxiao Pavilion is a relatively special sect, this special is reflected in the cruelty of the competition among the disciples, in this sect, those who have the ability are on top, those who are incapable are eliminated, and the iron law of the weak and the strong is vividly interpreted in the Lingxiao Pavilion.
Other sects may still have some friendship and brotherhood with the same sect, but there is no such thing as a brotherhood in the Lingxiao Pavilion! If you want to climb up, you can only be qualified by stepping on the shoulders of those so-called senior brothers and stepping on their blood.
Although it is not a super faction, the cruelty of the struggle of the disciples is second to none! It is precisely because of this that the disciples are all fierce in martial arts, and few people dare to provoke them when they go out to walk the rivers and lakes.
There is a rule in Lingxiao Pavilion that a disciple under the age of fourteen, no matter who it is, from the beginning, three years is considered a trial period. In the past three years, the food, housing, and transportation have been all taken care of by the sect, and the disciples can only cultivate. If you can break through the quenching period within three years, you will be eligible to worship the masters in the sect as apprentices, and let these masters teach and cultivate, of course, you can also cultivate by yourself without apprentices, but on the way to cultivation, it is completely different from having a good teacher to teach and exploring by yourself. To some extent, the rules of Ling Xiao Pavilion are somewhat free.
And those who did not break through the quenching stage within three years either left the sect or were demoted to trial disciples.
Trying out disciples is Yang Kai's current identity! It is also a shame in the Ling Xiao Pavilion!
Unlike ordinary disciples, the living environment of trial disciples is even more harsh, because when you come to this point, you have to take care of your own food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and the sect will not waste any cultivation resources on you. And once you are demoted to a trial disciple, you will basically never have the day to come out in this life, unless your strength rises sharply in a short period of time, and another sect feels that you have capital that you can invest.
There were three thousand disciples in the entire Ling Xiao Pavilion, and how many trial disciples were there, but there were only ten fingers! Yang Kai was fortunate enough to be one of them!
If a trial disciple wants to survive in the Lingxiao Pavilion, it is as difficult as reaching the sky, for example, the hut where Yang Kai lives now, it was built by himself one by one, and there were a few holes in the small roof that he didn't have time to take care of, and when it rained, the house was flooded and difficult to drain. He buys his own clothes, makes what he eats, and is responsible for everything.
Even the location of the hut is in the most remote and unattended place in the Lingxiao Pavilion. ...,
Such a bad treatment is very difficult for ordinary people to bear, this is also the reason for the small number of trial disciples in Ling Xiao Pavilion, basically the disciples who have not broken through the body quenching realm after the trial period will choose to leave Ling Xiao Pavilion, but Yang Kai stayed.
I've been swept out of the house once, how can it be this time?
After being demoted to a trial disciple a few months ago, Yang Kai took a job as a sweeper in the sect to make ends meet.
It can be said that Yang Kai is now not only a trial disciple of Ling Xiao Pavilion, but also a sweeping little servant of Ling Xiao Pavilion. But this sweeping work sometimes can't maintain Yang Kai's food and clothing, and from time to time he is hungry and full, no one cares about the wind and cold, and his life is miserable. Even so, Yang Kai has never retreated, he has lived in the world, for decades, he has chosen this path, he has to go all the way, and giving up halfway is not a man's doing.
Yang Kai has a tenacity, the tenacity of not hitting the south wall and not looking back!
The sky gradually brightened, Yang Kai swept the ground for a while, and the places he passed were clean, and the miscellaneous dust was swept away.
Although it didn't waste any effort to sweep the floor, but after moving for so long without eating or drinking early in the morning, Yang Kai was also sweating profusely, which had nothing to do with strength, it was completely because his physique was too poor.
Two of the three meals are hungry, and whoever is in Yang Kai's living environment will not have a good physique.
Some disciples of Ling Xiao Pavilion gradually gathered around him, these disciples all got up early in the morning, and they did not go to cultivation but gathered around Yang Kai, many people looked at Yang Kai with interest, and some people's eyes were very greedy, as if Yang Kai was now a naked beauty, with a compelling fragrance.
And among these Ling Xiao Pavilion disciples gathered around Yang Kai, there was also an atmosphere of tense competition spreading, vigilantly looking at the senior brothers around them, all with unkind faces.
Someone in the crowd couldn't bear it and said softly: "There are so many people, it's a bit excessive." ”
Someone immediately replied: "You think you can leave if there are too many people, no one wants you to stay." ”
One sentence made that person speechless, everyone knew what Lu Dao was gathered here, and they all knew what Lu Dao was staring at Yang Kai, and now they were waiting for that moment to come. The time limit is coming soon, wouldn't it be a pity to leave now? If you can take the lead, you will have another gain today.
Yang Kai was naturally aware of the movements around him, but his expression had never changed. I have to go through this kind of battle every five days, six times a month, there is really nothing to make a fuss about, and the number of people in front of me is a little less, it should be because it has not yet arrived.
So he has been sweeping the floor, ignoring the people around him, sweeping all the way.
As time passed, more and more people gathered around Yang Kai, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least thirty or forty people.
Yang Kai stopped suddenly, just sat in the middle of the road, took a slow breath, and recovered the physical strength he had consumed early in the morning.
As soon as he saw this movement, everyone gathered around Yang Kai immediately dispersed, and the group surrounded him in the middle, and the atmosphere of tense competition suddenly rose to a new level, as if even the air no longer flowed.
No one looked at anyone who was unpleasant, but they all looked at Yang Kai with great anticipation.
If someone who didn't know the truth saw this scene, he was afraid that he would think that the person who was surrounded by the crowd was a supreme master, otherwise how could he send such a large number of people to deal with him? But in fact, Yang Kai was just a trial disciple of the third layer of the Quenching Body Realm, and anyone present was more powerful than Yang Kai.
"Yang Kai, don't bother, you will obediently tell me to wait and wait to get beaten down, and everyone will save time, right?" Someone looked at Yang Kai like this, and suddenly felt a little disdainful.
What are you going to do with just three layers of quenching? Anyway, it's going to lose, it's better to be more simply, why bother to linger so much?...,
"Yes, yes, Yang Kai, you should also understand the feelings of your senior brothers, everyone is different from you, we still have to cultivate after this battle." ”
Saying this, it seemed that Yang Kai should be quickly defeated by them, and it seemed to be disrespectful to Yang Kai to recover his strength now.
Yang Kai turned a deaf ear, like an old monk in a fixed position.
Time continued to pass, and suddenly, a melodious and empty bell rang, it was the morning bell of Lingxiao Pavilion, the bell reached everyone's ears, and the disciples gathered around Yang Kai were all shocked.
The bell rings nine times, the sun rises in the east, and it's a new day!
Everyone's breathing subsided abruptly, and they looked at Yang Kai who was surrounded in the middle, Yang Kai slowly got up, picked up the broom in his hand, and glanced lightly at the circle of people around him.
"Choose me, Senior Brother Yang!" someone shouted loudly, "I'll start very lightly, and I promise that you won't hurt if you hit me!"
"Fart, choose me, I'll give you a punch, it's over with one punch, and I won't waste everyone's time. ”
"Pick Me ......"
"Pick Me ......"
There was a commotion in the field, just like the vegetable vendors in the market were selling the vegetables in their fields, and they were competing to see who was fresher.
"Yang Kai, you don't break the rules you have set!" someone reminded.
Yang Kai chuckled, casually threw the broom he was holding into the sky, dozens of pairs of eyes looked at him in unison, waiting for the moment when the broom landed, and prayed vigorously in his heart: "Choose me, choose me!"
Time seemed to slow down, and the broom spun a few times in mid-air, and then fell, bounced on the ground, and froze.
The front of the broom pointed to a burly teenager in the crowd.
A voice of regret sounded, full of resentment and unwillingness. On the contrary, it was the burly young man, who walked out of the crowd with a smile, hugged his fists and smiled at everyone: "Senior brothers, the junior brother won this battle today, and I hope that you senior brothers will not be strange." ”
"Grass, shit luck!" someone was jealous.
"Why can't you choose me, Lao Tzu comes every five days, and it's been a full month, Yang Kai, you did it on purpose, right?"
"Don't mention it, I've been here for three months, and I haven't been selected once!"
"Senior brother, you are worse than me. ”
"It's not miserable, it's not miserable, it's just to watch a good show. The two brothers glanced at each other and smiled understandingly.
In the field, the others had already dispersed, leaving only Yang Kai and the burly boy looking at each other.
"Trial disciple Yang Kai, quench the body with three layers!" Yang Kai looked at the other party and said.
"Ordinary disciple Zhou Dingjun, quenching the fifth layer of the body!" the burly young man reported to his family.
The disciples of Lingxiao Pavilion are also divided into levels, from the bottom to the top are the five levels of trial disciples, ordinary disciples, subordinate disciples, elite disciples, and core disciples. Zhou Dingjun said that he was an ordinary disciple, that is, he had not yet entered the master of the sect and had not received the guidance of a good teacher. If you break through the quenching period and worship under the master of the sect, you will be a higher-level disciple. The elite disciples of the next level are all outstanding, and they are selected from among the disciples under the seat.
And the core disciples are the hope of His Excellency Ling Xiao's generation, and the sect cultivates these people as future successors.
Sen Ran's disciple hierarchy may seem unkind, but it can well stimulate the bloodiness and sense of competition among young people, which is also the foundation of Ling Xiao Pavilion's cruel system.
And the fundamental reason why Yang Kai was being contested by countless people was another rule of Ling Xiao Pavilion, the rules of challenge.
