Chapter 41: Promotion Ceremony (Clicks, Recommendations!)
In the early morning, a slight cool breeze swept through the window, heralding the arrival of autumn.
In the small courtyard, there are a few withered yellow leaves, floating like flying and spinning, slowly falling, and gradually a few more leaves are scattered on the ground.
A figure flashed at the window, but Mu Tian suddenly woke up, stood up to the window, raised his hands, stretched his waist, and roared lazily in a low voice, and suddenly began to feel that his body was full of strength.
Slightly opening his eyes, seeing that the scenery in front of him was a little blurry, he rubbed his eyes, and gradually he could see everything in the courtyard clearly.
Finding that there were leaves falling today, he couldn't help but look at the scenery in front of him in surprise, and a cool breeze blew through the window, bringing a different kind of refreshment, making him believe that all this was real.
Standing in place, Mu Tian's face showed a hint of concern. After a moment, he suddenly scratched his hair, looked startled, and then remembered that he had to go to the promotion ceremony today.
In a hurry, he hurriedly changed his clothes, casually rinsed his mouth with water, wiped it with a white cloth, quickly opened the door, and rushed out like a gust of wind shadow.
The door was still shaking, but he had disappeared from the courtyard door.
On the path of the square, Mu Tian slowly stopped running, his eyes glanced around, and slowly walked to Tiandu Courtyard.
After a long time, he saw the solemn characters of "Tiandu Courtyard" from a distance, like a stroke of genius, hanging high on the majestic door. Then he couldn't help but praise this Tiandu Courtyard: "It is worthy of being the first courtyard of the Xuanwu Sect, just with these three extraordinary characters, that status is not something that others can shake." ”
He stepped on the stairs, as if he felt the momentum brought by the door gradually thickening, and said in his heart: "What kind of momentum is this, it must be written by a master to give out the momentum of coercion." ”
"Who?"
Just as he was in the middle of this, a short and powerful roar sounded, Mu Tian looked up, and did not find a figure, only saw the slippery walls and gates, his eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and he said in his heart: "Who is yelling and screaming?"
Suddenly, two purple shadows swept out of the courtyard, crossed the sky, and stood in front of Mu Tian's eyes in an instant.
He couldn't help but be surprised, looking at the door and there was no sound of pushing it open, why could the two of them quickly appear in front of him?
Seeing Mu Tian's stupid appearance, one of them said coldly: "Which one are you? This is Tiandu Courtyard, it is not something that can be entered casually, you better leave quickly." ”
When Mu Tian heard what he said, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said in his heart: "What is this, I came to participate in the promotion ceremony, and there are two big men standing here in the way, how can I get in?"
But he didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately replied: "I am Mu Tian, who won the first place in the outer gate, and I am here to participate in the promotion ceremony today. ”
The two people were puzzled for a moment, they didn't go to the outer door competition, they didn't know about his existence at all, how could they say that they knew each other, and after a while, one of them asked, "Do you have a certificate?"
"Nope. As soon as Mu Tian heard that he wanted a certificate, he was a little anxious, he had never heard of anything like a certificate, and the Great Elder of the Outer Gate had not mentioned this incident to him yesterday, so he quickly explained: "I really won the first place in the Outer Gate Competition, and now I am here to participate in the promotion ceremony." ”
The man looked Mu Tian up and down, his eyes were suspicious, and he asked, "Since you took the first place, why didn't you come yesterday?"
A short, powerful question, he didn't know how to answer.
"Hmph, I think you're a liar, you dare to come to Tiandu Courtyard to spread wild, and you're tired of living. Seeing that he didn't know what to do, the man snorted and scolded angrily.
"I'm really here for the promotion ceremony, but something was delayed yesterday. Mu Tian explained nervously and anxiously.
The two of them shouted at the same time: "There is no certificate, everything is fake, if you don't leave, don't blame us for being rude to you." ”
Facing the two purple-clothed people, he thought for a while, and said in his heart: "Presumably it is a senior disciple of the inner sect, and he will have to mix in the Xuanwu Sect in the future, so it is not appropriate to fight with them." ”
Therefore, Mu Tian lowered his posture and pleaded bitterly, but the two seemed to think that he was too annoying, so they pulled out the sword of the spirit product and pointed it at him angrily.
Under the sunlight, the sword emitted blue cold light flakes, as if to tell Mu Tian that if you don't run quickly, your life will be confessed here.
"Stop. ”
Mu Tian was about to give up and go back to the Great Elder to find out the reason, but he casually looked at the source of the voice, only to find that it was the Great Elder who appeared and came to his side like timely rain.
"Hello Elder!" the two men bowed slightly.
Although they are now inner disciples, who did not come from the outer gate, for the respect of the Great Elder, it was sincere admiration.
Seeing that these two were people from the outer gate before, the Great Elder still felt a little nostalgic for the old days, and smiled faintly: "What are you arguing about?" ”
One of them pointed at Mu Tian with his sword and said, "We haven't seen this person, so we can't let him in, so it's like this." ”
"Don't you know that he is the one who gets the first place in the outer door?" The Great Elder pointed at Mu Tian and asked.
The two shook their heads and replied, "We were on duty that day, so we couldn't go over to visit." ”
The look of ignorance made the Great Elder believe their words, and he also wanted to believe that it was a misunderstanding, so he smiled and said, "You may really not know, he is the one who won the first place in the outer gate." ”
The two of them glanced at each other and nodded repeatedly, believing the Great Elder's words.
Mu Tian couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, and said in his heart: "It's still the words of the Great Elder that work. ”
The two of them opened the door and made a gesture of invitation.
The Great Elder smiled slightly and said, "Go in, it's okay." ”
Mu Tian nodded again and again, walked in, and one of the inner disciples with a guilty face led him towards the Liangyi Hall.
Gradually, after passing through a lot of paths and pavilions, he saw the three big characters of Liangyi Hall from a distance, and the breath of the gods and monsters floated out, bathing in the flowers and trees in front of the door, and a piece of vitality appeared in front of him.
Standing in front of the door, the inner disciple then instructed, "Just go in by yourself, I won't go." ”
After speaking, he returned along the road alone.
Mu Tian listened to his words, and was still stunned, but when he woke up, he no longer saw his figure, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly and turned his head to look at the door.
"Knock Knock ......"
Holding his breath, he knocked softly on the door.
For a long time, there was no response from this door, and he couldn't help but think, "Is there no one inside?"
"Knock Knock ......"
In confusion, I waited for a long time to knock again, but there was still no response. He couldn't help but be anxious, and finally came in, how to implement the matter.
"Ahem......"
Then he gently pushed the door open, and the smell of dust came to his nose, choking him and coughing, twisting his nose with his left hand and waving his right hand a few times in front of him.
He saw an old man in black sitting inside, who looked like an old man, with a thin body, a dark complexion, and a short white beard under his wrinkled face, which looked particularly energetic.
He seemed to feel someone walk in, a pair of deep-set eyes were black and shiny, as if sharp and godly, they opened as if they were sharp and godly, and looked at Mu Tian but did not speak.
Mu Tian hurriedly stepped forward, but he didn't know what to call it for a while, thought about it for a while, and decided to call him Elder first, and then said respectfully: "Elder, I'm here to be promoted to an inner disciple." ”
The old man glanced at him and said indifferently: "You are a stranger, I haven't seen it, why did you promote the inner disciple?"
"I was lucky enough to get the first place in the outer door competition, so I came here. Mu Tian said modestly this time.
"Oh, you still took the first place?" asked the old man, who seemed to be interested in him at this time.
Mu Tian nodded again and again, but there was a suffocating breath, but it was the old man who released that domineering momentum, like a sharp knife, scraping towards him.
He was instantly forced to sweat like rain, and his face was covered with beads of sweat, but he still raised his head and looked at the old man, knowing in his heart that even if he was not the latter's opponent, he would have the courage to face it.
With difficulty, he looked at the old man's faint smile, as if he admired himself, but why did he do this to himself, and he was puzzled for a while.
At this moment, the old man waved his hand casually, and the momentum also went away, his body loosened, and he almost fell to the side, secretly shouting in his heart that the old man's martial arts realm was terrifyingly high, just so lightly, the momentum was terrifyingly high. Now it's another wave, and the momentum is completely gone, this kind of sending and receiving is free, and he thinks to himself that he doesn't have the ability to do it.
At this time, the old man said solemnly: "It stands to reason that the outer door competition ended the day before yesterday, but you didn't come yesterday, this is a small punishment for you, I hope you don't despise Liangyi Hall in the future, let alone despise any of them." ”
Mu Tian was in a hurry at this time, he didn't mean to, and hurriedly explained, but the old man stopped what he wanted to say with a wave of his hand, and said, "You don't have to explain, in front of the result, there is no process." ”
Mu Tian thought for a while, and said in his heart: "Yes, what's the use of explaining, can it change the facts?"
Then he lowered his head and said sincerely, "Well, Elder, I know my mistake and promise not to make such a mistake in the future." ”
Seeing Mu Tian so sincere, the old man nodded again and again, he also took a fancy to the former's qualifications, the person who could get the first place was by no means a mediocre person, and he also found that the former's martial arts realm had reached the qualified range of the inner disciples, and his eyes were full of appreciation.
"That'...... I ......" Mu Tian anxiously wanted to ask himself what to do next, but he didn't dare to say it directly.
The old man seemed to understand what he meant, and then said, "Come with me." ”
Mu Tian followed him closely to the back door, only to see the old man gently twist a switch, and the door opened in an instant.
Walking in, Mu Tian looked at such a large hall and looked at the old man with curious eyes.
The old man knew what he wanted to ask, and said with a smile: "Our Xuanwu Sect is also a first-class sect, and there are still some places like this...... It is specially used for promotion ceremonies for promoted inner disciples. ”
Mu Tian sighed, looked forward, and saw a painting hanging on the altar, and the floating appearance of the people in the painting was like the meaning of traveling in the world.
The old man's gaze was quite satisfied, it was the portrait of the patriarch who had no self, and it had always been placed here. He said one by one: "You worship the patriarch, after the incense, you will be an inner disciple." ”
Mu Tian heard him hear this, slowly walked to the front, knelt down three times in front of the portrait of the patriarch, took the three pillars of incense from the old man's hand, walked to the altar, and inserted it on it.
Then, the old man took out two sets of brand-new inner disciple clothes and gave them to him, and said, "Okay, let's do this first, you have officially become an inner disciple, you can apprentice, or you can go to the first floor of the martial arts pavilion to select combat skills." ”
As soon as the words fell, Mu Tian hurriedly thanked the old man for his guidance.
