Chapter VII: The Rite of Passage

For a few days, Lu Yi didn't start to let the green liquid monster and the white earth monster use the elemental core to improve their strength, and when the Chengren Festival ended, he wanted to summon his own summoned beast to prove that he had completed the Chengren Sacrifice, if he started using the elemental core in the past few days, it would be too conspicuous.

In the evening, the villagers who had been busy all day gathered in the central square of the village again, today is the return of the children who participated in this year's Chengren Festival, every year on this day, there will be more than ten or twenty children in the village to participate in the Chengren Festival, which has been continued for many years, and this has become one of the most important days in Huoli Village.

As time passed, one after another, children came in from outside the village, and a week passed, and all the children were a little ragged, unkempt, and looked depressed, looking miserable and miserable.

For the children's appearance, everyone has long been accustomed to this, everyone pointed and laughed, the child's parents were the first to greet them, shush the cold and ask for warmth, this is their last chance, when the time comes, these children who have completed the adult sacrifice will be allocated houses by the village chief and become a complete adult.

In the midst of the noise, a figure gradually appeared at the entrance of the village, and seeing this figure, the villagers in the square suddenly made a noise: "Woo...... This kid is also back, looking at his appearance, he should have gone out for a walk, and it is impossible to successfully transform the summoned beast, after all, ...... Just a month ago, he hadn't condensed the Soul Orb. ”

As if he didn't hear the questioning and mockery of the surrounding crowd, Lu Yi had a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and walked along the passage towards the stone platform in the middle of the square without squinting.

"My child, you're finally back, mom is really worried about death, you're okay, it's okay...... it's okay" the next moment...... Lu Yi's mother came over excitedly, with tears in her eyes, and hugged Lu Yi excitedly.

Feeling his mother's warm embrace, Lu Yi couldn't help laughing, even if the whole world turned his back on him, there must be someone standing behind him, this person is his mother, the greatness of mother's love is enough to make any love lose its color.

Lu Yi's mother is a very gentle woman, although she is also a summoner, but she doesn't go out to work, for the sake of her father, but also for this family, her mother chose to stay at home to take care of him, but in the past fifteen years, he has obviously lived up to his mother's expectations, although Lu Yi has worked hard enough, but he is still very sorry.

Lu Yi's father is not in the village, but with a few partners to form a team, together in the outside world, although every year to send a lot of money to the family, but Lu Yi does not think that he is a qualified father, let alone a qualified husband, the last time I saw him, it was three or four years ago, and he only stayed at home for three days in a hurry, and then left again.

In the mother's concerned inquiry, time passed quickly, and finally ...... The last child to participate in the coming-of-age festival returned, and seeing this scene, the village chief gathered everyone and began the final step of the coming-of-age festival, summoning the beast to confirm.

There is nothing to say about the whole process, all the children have successfully owned their own summoned beasts, after all...... After cultivating for more than ten years, transforming a zero-order summoned beast is actually not too difficult, even if it fails the first time, it can still be carried out a second time, a third time, and if you persist, you will always succeed.

The adult sacrifice actually tests everyone, is the ability to survive in the wild, in the absence of summoned beasts, you can survive in the wild for a week, that has the protection of summoned beasts, even if you go to some more dangerous places, there will not be much of a problem.

Including Lu Yi, among the thirteen children in total, seven chose the beast type to summon beasts, three chose the insect system, two chose the plant system, and only Lu Yi himself chose the element system.

It's not that the elemental system is weak, in fact...... None of the summoned beasts of the line are weak, but they ...... Most people believe that the elemental system is the lowest level of creatures, not even a fixed form, not even as good as insects, and the power of the beast system is more attractive, and the strength of the beast system does not need to be questioned.

For zero-order summoned beasts, nothing can surprise the people of Huoli Village, for summoners, a remote summoned beast is definitely not a good choice, a choice like Lu Yi, if it is really known by everyone, it will definitely be scolded for being stupid, the reason is very simple, after you choose a remote summoned beast, you will not be able to learn from the knowledge summarized by your ancestors, and it is a thankless effort, it is definitely a stupid behavior.

For the summoned beasts chosen by other children, everyone gave warm applause, lions, tigers, leopards, all appeared, this is also a more popular, enduring summoned beasts, people who use these summoned beasts are easier to become talents, as a big hit, there is too much experience and knowledge to learn, and cultivation is definitely twice the result with half the effort.

To be precise, more than thirty percent of the world's strongest summoners use lions, tigers, leopards, these three summoned beasts, just imagine, more than 40 million summoned beasts, but three seats are occupied by three summoned beasts, what is this concept?

Not only that, but according to historical records, more than half of the hundreds of super summoners use lions, tigers, and leopards, so ...... Whenever you see a child who chooses these three callings, they will definitely send the warmest applause, after all...... Even the zero-order lions, tigers, and leopards are full of killing, and they are not so easy to get, not to mention that there are adult beasts by their side.

On the other hand, Lu Yi also won everyone's applause this time, although he did not choose the three children of the lion, tiger, and leopard applause, but obviously, in everyone's opinion, the green earth monster is also a good regular summoned beast, with Lu Yi a month ago has not condensed the level of the soul ball, and now he has successfully owned his own summoned beast, everyone naturally wants to send applause.

After showing their summoning beasts, everyone went to the village chief to receive the keys to the houses, these houses were built with the tax revenue of the village, specially used to distribute to the children in the village, the keys were hung with number plates, according to the numbers on the cards, everyone can easily find their own houses, after all, ...... Everyone is a child in the village, how can they not be familiar with the environment in the village?

There are hundreds of spare houses built with village taxes and specially allocated to adult children, and it is difficult to achieve fairness in distribution, so after many discussions among the villagers, a decision was finally made that the keys to all the houses should be placed in a sealed box, and everyone should touch it themselves.

For such a matter decided by all the villagers, there is no one who can violate it, and what can be recognized by all the villagers is the rules, and the rules cannot be violated.

Although Hori Village is only a village, but the population is very large, there are more than 1,000 people, thousands of buildings, hundreds of houses, evenly distributed in various locations in the village, some are very remote, some are very superior, for the children of Hori Village, draw the key, it is a bit of a lottery, once you choose a good house, you can really struggle for several years.

One by one, the children walked to the box, put their hands into the box and scratched for a while, and then took out a key one by one, looked at the numbers on the key card, some people screamed, some people shook their heads and sighed, and a few people were secretly happy, probably choosing a better place.

Lu Yi didn't rush up to smoke, hundreds of houses are scattered, and there are not just one, but more than ten good locations, and the probability of selection is one in ten, even if one is chosen by others, it will not delay anything.

In fact, although the probability is 1 in 10, the twelve children in front of them all chose to go to ordinary houses, and some even chose to be on the edge of the village, and the location is almost the same.

Finally, after the twelve children were selected, Lu Yi calmly walked in front of the village chief, and after nodding to the village chief, Lu Yi casually reached into the box, had no choice at all, and directly grabbed a key and took it out.

The probability of one in ten is actually not low, probably because the previous twelve consecutive failures have accumulated a lot of character, Lu Yi just grabbed it so casually, and chose one of the dozen or so sets of houses with good locations.

Looking at the same two numbers on the key, Lu Yi couldn't help laughing, after so many years, is he finally going to change his life? I actually grabbed a room 56, although the location is not on the main street, but it is located in the middle of the side street, which can be said to be a better location in the village.

In a large village of more than 1,000 people, although there are many shops on both sides of the main street, there is no difference in the side street, but the types of shops have changed, and Lu Yi is equivalent to picking up a shop for nothing!

In the face of Lu Yi's good luck, the other twelve children, and even the surrounding villagers were envious, which was equivalent to picking up gold while walking, and it was even better than this, after all, ...... There are some things that money can't buy.

After receiving the key, this year's coming-of-age festival is completely over, the villagers disperse, and the thirteen children of Chengren have also rushed to their new homes with their own keys, and from now on, they are already adults who have full rights to make any decisions for themselves.

After hugging his mother at the end, Lu Yi endured the sourness in his heart, resolutely turned around and walked towards his new home, and said...... The two lives together, he has lived for thirty or forty years, although it is very sad, but he also knows that separation is inevitable, the difference is only in the earlier, or later, everyone must adapt.

Rushing all the way to the new house, Lu Yi opened the door and entered the door...... It is a spacious hall of hundreds of square meters, with three doors, one leading to the bedroom, one leading to the kitchen, and the last one is the back door, which can lead to the back of the room, toilets and the like are built there, and it also has a not small courtyard.

Nodding with satisfaction, Lu Yi rushed to the bedroom as soon as possible, it was not early, he had been running outside for a week, he was physically and mentally exhausted, and if he wanted to sleep well at night, he had to clean up quickly.

Entering the spacious bedroom of more than fifty square meters, except for a large wooden bed, it was empty, and there was not even a futon, shaking his head, Lu Yi began to clean up the dust.

When it comes to cleaning up the dust, there is no need for Lu Yi to do it, with a wave of his right hand, he summoned King Kong, as a summoned beast of the earth system, it is his instinct to control the dust, and it is used to clean up, which is really suitable.

Summoned King Kong, under Lu Yi's signal, King Kong ran quickly in the room, and everywhere he passed, the surrounding dust quickly absorbed the surface of King Kong's body, and after a while, King Kong's body was full of thick circles.

When King Kong was busy, there was a crisp knock on the door, and he turned his head to look at the gate in amazement, Lu Yi couldn't figure it out, at this time, who would come?

After thinking about it, Lu Yi motioned to King Kong to continue sweeping the dust, walked quickly to the gate, opened the door and saw that a girl with a good figure was standing at the door with her head bowed timidly twisting her fingers timidly.
