Chapter 40: The People's League
Shi Qi frowned: "The twelve states are so huge, could there be similar people." ”
Sun Fanbai said: "I thought so at first, but ...... How to say it, as long as you have seen the real Egret and see this ancient picture, the first reaction is definitely that this is a person. ”
Shi Qixin said: Although I always call the master old witch, it is impossible for her to really live for 10,000 years, right......
Sun Fanbai: "Brother Shi, if you have a chance to come to my Yunqing Gate, you can show you this ancient map." Before, the Egret gave me the Dutian Fire Flag, and bluntly said that it has a relationship with Yunqingmen, and I think there must be a connection in the dark. ”
Shi Qi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, when I finish going to Dongzhou, I'll go north to Yunqingmen, and I just have something to trouble Brother Sun." ”
Sun Fanbai: "Very good, then Sun withdrew first." ”
Bai Qiu: "Xiao Qi, are you in Yongzhou City now?" ”
Shi Qi: "That's right. ”
Bai Qiu: "Hurry up and go to the Yongzhou People's League branch, apply and pass the trial, and become a member of the People's League." ”
Shi Qi: "People's League Branch? ”
Bai Qiu: "Yes, the People's League is an alliance of cultivators who are directly connected with the imperial court, regardless of sect, regardless of grade, cultivators above Jindan can apply and become members of the People's League after passing the trial, and the main job of the members is to complete a series of tasks issued by the organization, including wanted, guarding, finding objects, and so on." ”
Bai Qiu continued: "The People's League has branches in every big city, of course Yongzhou also has it, with your ability, it is easy to pass the trial, I am also a member of the People's League now, there is a lot of fun here, just if you want to go to the direction of Dongzhou, when the time comes, we will see you in Xiaodongzhou, and by the way, you can complete the task and get the treasure." ”
Shi Qi: "I see. ”
-------------------------------------
Early the next morning, Shi Qi knocked on Su Xiaomu's guest room door, and saw that Su Xiaomu was still asleep, and said in his heart that this girl eats and sleeps every day, and she still cultivates so fast.
Shi Qi walked out of the inn alone and came to the streets of Yongzhou City.
There were already many people coming and going in the city in the early morning, and Shi Qi wandered around the city until he finally came to a tall building.
At first glance, the high foyer and the grand entrance, the round arched windows and the stone masonry at the corners symbolize solemnity and stability.
Above the foyer, a plaque hangs in the center, with two big characters on it: "People's League".
Shi Qi: "It seems that this is the People's Alliance." ”
Shi Qi moved into the door, and an old man greeted him.
"Little Daoyou." The old man saluted, "What is the need to come to our people's alliance?" ”
Shi Qi returned the salute: "Senior, can you tell me more specifically?" ”
The old man nodded, stretched out his hand and motioned for Shi Qi to follow him, and then walked inward.
Shi Qi followed closely behind, observing the surroundings, there were not many people in the hall, and there were two or three bustling people.
Shi Qi followed the old man to the inner hall, and the old man stretched out his hand and introduced: "Little Daoist, if you have any needs, you can go to the side hall on the left, and you can release the tasks you need to release within the Human Alliance. ”
"The first type: Wanted, this is an official task, private individuals cannot be released, only the imperial court and the major designated sects can issue wanted bounty tasks, the task is mostly to destroy the bottom line of Xiuzhen The villain is wanted with a bounty, divided into wanted and killed, the situation is different, and the reward is different."
"The second type: guards, both official and private can be released, the task is mostly to protect someone within a certain period of time, according to the different realms and circumstances, the reward is different, the publisher can choose one or several from the people who receive the task, but friendly reminder, the People's Alliance does not guarantee the guards, there is a risk of escort failure, the bottom line of the guards is self-preservation, if the actual situation is too far from the situation, the guards have the right to choose to unilaterally remove the escort task."
"The third type: finding objects, both official and private can be released, and the task is mostly to find specific or specific items within the twelve continents, and according to the value of the items, the reward is different."
Shi Qi nodded, and generally understood the operation mode of the People's League, the existence of the People's League made a connection between the cultivators and the imperial court, that is, ordinary people, although they did not formulate relevant policies, but also protected ordinary people in disguise.
The old man continued: "Then what do you need? ”
Shi Qixing: "It's such a senior, what process does it take to join the People's League?" ”
The old man smiled: "Little Daoyou, to join the People's League, you first need to reach the Jindan stage...... You ......"
Shi Qi knew that the old man didn't say it to give himself face, and the old man looked down on him because he was young.
Shi Qi smiled: "Senior, I have entered the Jindan in the next." ”
"Oh?" The old man was surprised, "Then the old man is clumsy, the little Taoist friend is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he has reached the Jindan stage, I don't know which famous disciple he came from?" ”
In fact, it is not to blame the old man for being clumsy, since Shi Qi left the island, whether it is Bai Qiu, Liao Hongda, Sun Fanbai, Yuanwu, or Bo Yunxin, Leng Lingmeng and others, almost all of them are from famous families or famous teachers.
Among them, Bo Yunxin, Leng Lingmeng, and Liao Hongda are the figures on the list of the top ten young masters, and they are the most outstanding disciples of the prestigious sects in the twelve states.
Shi Qi can not fall behind in the battle with them, in fact, he has already stepped into the ranks of young masters.
Most cultivators of this age, first, are mediocre in talent, build a foundation before the age of twenty, and Jindan before the age of forty, with a little talent and hard work, they can enter the Yuan Infant at the age of sixty, but most cultivators stop at the Jindan period for life, which is also what many ordinary disciples of the sect have to experience.
The second is that there are some talents, who can be Jindan before the age of twenty, but most of them are like vases, empty cultivation, no combat power, no setbacks and sufferings, and lack of experience in the enemy.
This is also the reason why many sects, such as Yunqingmen, send their disciples down the mountain to practice, jade is not cut, in this era of sharp words that cultivators can't hide, unless they find a hidden and remote place to live in seclusion and practice silently, they naturally can't escape the torrent of the times.
Shi Qi replied to the old man: "There is no name and no faction under it, and one is a loose cultivator." ”
Shi Qi did not mention the name of the Egret Zhenren, firstly, the name of the master is not loud, maybe there are not many people who know, but it does not mean that the master is not strong, and he can repel the Hinayana master with two slaps by relying on his doppelganger alone, looking at the entire twelve states, maybe there are only a handful.
Second, Shi Qi knows that the master has a lot of secrets, so when he walks the world, Shi Qi doesn't want to involve the master because of himself.
The old man's pupils lit up: "That little Taoist friend can be said to be quite talented, please here!" ”
The old man waved his hand, and Shi Qi followed him out of the inner hall and came to the inner hall on the other side.
The old man pointed to a transparent crystal ball in the hall and said, "Little Daoist, please merge the true qi into the test ball, it can measure whether the person who fuses the true qi has reached the cultivation of the Jindan stage." ”
Shi Qi nodded, then stepped forward, put his right hand in front of the crystal ball in a palm, and condensed his true qi slowly surged towards the crystal ball.
When Shi Qi fused his true qi into the crystal ball, he saw that the crystal ball flashed white for a moment, and the brilliance was dazzling.
The old man nodded secretly, and then said: "It's okay, little Daoyou, the true qi above the Jindan period merges into the test ball, and the test ball will glow white, and the more white light it is, the purer the true qi, and the little Daoyou can easily pass this level." ”
Shi Qi stopped transmitting true qi, and the crystal ball gradually dimmed, and finally returned to transparency.
The old man continued: "Little Daoist, please come with me. ”
Shi Qi followed the old man to the hall again, and after a while, the two came to a door.
Old man: "Little Daoist, this is the second round of trials. ”
Shi Qi asked, "How many rounds are there?" ”
The old man smiled: "There are three rounds in total." ”
Shi Qi nodded, pushed open the door and walked in.
Walking into the door, Shi Qi saw some charms painted on the ground, as if they had formed some kind of formation.
The old man said behind Shi Qi: "This is the trial illusion array, after the little Taoist friend walks in, he will enter an illusion realm, there is an opponent who is at war with you in the illusion, defeat the other party, you can succeed in the trial, and automatically exit the illusion array if defeated, you will not die in the illusion array, you can rest assured." ”
Shi Qi nodded and stepped into the formation.
Suddenly, a burst of white light flashed in front of Shi Qi's eyes, the surrounding environment swirled, Shi Qi felt a sense of dizziness, he lifted his true qi to gather the heavenly spirit, and it was much better.
After a while, the white light disappeared, and Shi Qi looked around, and he was no longer indoors, but came to a jousting platform.
In front of him was a man in purple, and the man in purple wrapped his entire face in a black cloth, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly.
Outside the array, the old man was shocked and said: "It turned out to be the phantom of that adult, this little friend is really talented!." ”
Shi Qi was just about to speak, but he saw the purple-clothed man on the opposite side disappear in an instant, and he raised his sword and killed Shi Qi.
"It's a little fierce." Shi Qi sighed, his left hand reached behind and patted it from the bottom up, the Biyun umbrella rushed out from behind, Shi Qi didn't look back, grabbed it with his right hand, and held the Biyun umbrella in his hand.
"Rub." The sound of the long sword breaking through the air came to Shi Qi's ears, and the cold light flashed in front of Shi Qi's body, and a long sword pierced the door.
Shi Qi raised the umbrella to block it, only to see Shi Qi holding the umbrella in his right hand and swiping in front of him.
"Dang!"
The purple-clothed man's long sword changed direction under Shi Qi's blow, and the tip of the sword changed from pointing at Shi Qi to pointing at the sky.
The purple-clothed man's right hand was unsteady, and the long sword flew out of his hand and flew into the air, spinning in the air.
Shi Qi gained the upper hand under the blow, took advantage of the victory to pursue, pointed his right foot on the ground, and rushed forward with a "rub", and the blue cloud umbrella pointed straight on the chest of the man in purple.
"Brush." The tip of Shi Qi's umbrella pierced into the chest of the man in purple, but Shi Qi felt that the tip of the umbrella was not resisted, but passed through the chest of the man in purple, as if piercing the air.
"Is it an afterimage or a clone?" Shi Qi suddenly found that the man in purple in front of him was not the body, so where did the body go?
Shi Qi didn't look back, and the most dangerous place at this time was behind him!
Shi Qi decisively activated his true qi and rushed forward with all his strength.
Sure enough, as soon as Shi Qi rushed forward, the long sword that had just been picked up in the air turned into eleven swords and stabbed at Shi Qigang's position!
