Chapter 9 The assessment is approaching

"Big brother, big brother ......" Early in the morning, Ying Donglai broke into Lin Junxuan's room. It was probably because of eating the 5,000-year-old ginseng doll that Ying Donglai showed a bronze color, and his hair fell scattered, which was very wild.

"What's wrong?" In the center of the room, Lin Junxuan woke up from the formation comprehension, raised his head, and asked.

"I live in the 'Dongfang Jade' kid shelter, today I heard from them that in the afternoon, someone from the Inner Sect on the top of the mountain will come to Cangsong Yuan to assess our three-year cultivation. During the assessment, there will be teachers and uncles who are cultivating on the mountain watching from the sidelines, and when the assessment is over, they will take away their favorite disciples. Ying Donglai's face was flushed and he looked excited.

"Assessment ?......" Hearing Ying Donglai mention it, Lin Junxuan remembered that it had indeed been three years since he went up the mountain, and according to the disciple of the inner sect when he entered Cangsong Garden, it was really the time for the three-year assessment.

"Big brother, we also have to come on, during the afternoon assessment, we must not be crushed by that kid Dongfang Yu. This kid is very proud before he enters the Inner Sect, and when he enters the Inner Sect, he is afraid that his eyes will have to be rolled over his head. "Ying Donglaidao.

Lin Junxuan heard the square and said with a smile: "Whether you can pass it depends on the past three years of cultivation, it is useless to wait for the assessment to be in a hurry, it is better to calm down, and wait until the time of the assessment to give full play to your own strength." ”

"No matter, it's better to hold your feet temporarily than not to hug it, big brother, I'll go back to the room to practice first, you have to work hard." Ying Dong came to say, and after speaking, he ran back and disappeared outside the door.

Lin Junxuan smiled and watched Ying Donglai disappear outside the door. He didn't care much about the afternoon assessment. When he first entered Cangsong Garden, Lin Junxuan was already ahead of other children, and in the past three years, his efforts have not been inferior to other children. Because of his cultivation of the 'Star Receiving Qi Technique', he doesn't even need to sleep now. As for qualifications, after practicing the 'Star Receiving Qi Technique', Lin Junxuan has reached the point where a needle drop within twenty zhang can be heard, and his ability to never forget is becoming more and more prominent. During the assessment, it may be a little difficult to achieve the first place, but it should not be difficult to pass the assessment.

Standing up and running his body, Lin Junxuan walked out of the room. There was still some hour before breakfast, which was enough for Lin Junxuan to walk around the pine forest.

"Senior Brother Lin, it's morning!" Walking out of the door, a young disciple of Cangsong Yuan who was passing by stopped and saluted Lin Junxuan respectfully. In the three years of Cangsong Garden, Dongfang Yu was anxious to use his family assets to form a gang and make friends. And Lin Junxuan practiced the 'Star Receiving Qi Technique' at night, and comprehended the 'Qimen Dunjia' during the day, and the rest of the time he either chatted with Ying Dong, or went to the corner of Cangsong Courtyard, in the small house of Uncle Songyu to stay for a while. Lin Junxuan was not interested in 'forming a gang' at all, and even some senior brothers who entered the mountain gate earlier than Lin Junxuan took the initiative to come to the door to show goodwill, but they were also rejected by Lin Junxuan.

Although Lin Junxuan rarely goes out of the room, he doesn't like to make friends like Dongfang Yu. But his fame has long spread throughout Cangsong Garden. The matter of Lin Junxuan's excellent grade in the root bone assessment also spread from the mouths of the same batch of disciples, and now, it has long been widely believed in Cangsong Yuan that Lin Junxuan's strength should be among the top five in the entire Cangsong Garden. Maybe only the senior brother 'Li Xuanfeng' can beat him.

Who 'Li Xuanfeng' is, Lin Junxuan doesn't know, and he has never seen him in three years. This 'Li Xuanfeng' has never come to the door to challenge. Lin Junxuan guessed that this Li Xuanfeng was the same as himself, he didn't go out, and all his mind was spent on cultivation, and he didn't care about things outside of cultivation such as competitiveness.

Thanks to this kind of rumor, no one came to disturb Lin Junxuan's cultivation, and no one even provoked them with their group of disciples who went up the mountain. Three years ago, Lin Junxuan broke into Ying Donglai's room, put down a group of people alone, and finally grabbed a young man's neck and lifted him up. It is said that the boy who was lifted by Lin Junxuan from the ground is still often awakened by nightmares every night. In the past three years, Lin Junxuan has been practicing behind closed doors, although he has never made a move, everyone knows that his strength will be stronger.

The pine needles are dripping, the pine forests are filled with a thin mist, and the morning air is always very fresh. Lin Junxuan walked around and stopped when he came around the corner. Of all the rooms in Cangsong Temple, this one is dilapidated and shabby. After the disciples under the mountain finished cleaning, they would often put the broom in this room, but Lin Junxuan knew that this room was actually where Master Songyu lived. He was responsible for managing the cleaning tools, and many Hou Bu disciples under the mountain had been in and out of Cangsong Garden many times, and they always thought that Songyu was the cleaner of Cangsong Garden. And regardless of whether he is a real cleaner or not, even if he is, Lin Junxuan also knows that he is by no means cleaner in the ordinary sense, at least through the first conversation three years ago, Lin Junxuan knew that this Songyu master had a glorious past.

Turning around, Lin Junxuan walked towards the dilapidated small room, the door was closed, but Lin Junxuan knew that Songyu didn't actually have to sleep.

"Bang bang!" Lin Junxuan reached out and tapped lightly on the door a few times.

"Come in!" came the sound of a loose corner in the porter's room, and as soon as the voice fell, the door opened, and in the room, a young man about fifteen years old, with pale skin, the corners of his mouth tightened, and the whole person looked a little indifferent, stepped out of the room. When he crossed the threshold, the young man's eyes looked at Lin Junxuan, and there was no emotion in that eye.

"Very strong!" When facing the young man's indifferent eyes, Lin Junxuan had a strong feeling in his heart. This kind of teenager is completely different from the other teenagers in Cangsong Garden. The disciples in Cangsong Garden, whether they were the registered disciples who went up the mountain first, or the same batch of Dongfang Jade or Ying Donglai, all had some childishness and impetuousness that could not be escaped at this age. But in this kind of teenager, Lin Junxuan feels a kind of maturity and calmness after impetuous precipitation. The pair of eyes didn't seem to care about anything, or rather, he had already set a goal in his heart, which was his whole world, and he didn't care about anything else.

His gaze was instantaneous, and a strange fluctuation crossed the eyes of the indifferent young man, and then he turned around and walked forward along the corridor step by step, without hurry or slowness.

"Jun Xuan, why are you still staying outside. Come on in. There was a sound of pine in the room.

Taking a slight breath and erasing the young man from his mind, Lin Junxuan walked into the room. This is not the first time Lin Junxuan has entered the wing. The dilapidated room was filled with an old smell of dust, and the room was a little dark. In the corner of the bed, there are more than a dozen brooms. I don't know, I really thought this was a cleaning room.

The utensils in the room were old, a stack of patched sheets, an old four-legged wooden table with one leg crooked and always uneven on the floor, and a few moth-eaten boards. It's really old, and it can't be old. The only thing in the room that can be called some elegance is a picture of 'ink bamboo and green mountains' on the wall, a pen inkstone with a corner missing on the table, a bald pen, yellowed rice paper, and an old green book, but that book is not a secret 'classic' brought out from the inner sect, but a Confucian must-read "Li".

In the past three years, Lin Junxuan has never asked him about the Taoism in Songyu's room, and Songyu has never revealed any Taoism. Lin Junxuan's life is very regular, and Lin Junxuan never stays in Songyu's room for a long time. At the beginning, Hou Lin Junxuan also asked some ordinary questions in the sect, and later when he entered his room, he couldn't help but feel itchy when he saw the pen, ink and paper, and he revealed his calligraphy expertise. After Songyu saw it, every time he saw Lin Junxuan, he would talk to him about calligraphy, and sometimes he would ask him to stay in the room for a while and write for a while. Other than that, I don't mention it.

"This afternoon, someone from the Inner Sect will come down the mountain to assess your cultivation, and you already know this. Do you have confidence?" asked Songyu, sitting across from the four-legged wooden table, still the same as before, Songyu always looked a little old, and in three years, he had more gray hair on his head. Judging from his appearance, he really has nothing to do with cultivation, and he is just an ordinary person who is tired by life.

Although Songyu had not revealed his cultivation ability, Lin Junxuan knew that the conversation in the wing room in the morning could not avoid his ears and eyes at all. Lin Junxuan's comprehension of the 'Qimen Dunjia' was just deduced in his heart, and he didn't need to use the 'One Leaf Array' or the like to cover his breath, and he was not afraid that he would discover any secrets.

"Of course I have confidence, otherwise why would I have been practicing non-stop for three years?" Smiling, Lin Junxuan said bluntly, in front of this Songyu master, Lin Junxuan did not hide anything.

"Hehe, I appreciate that you are neither proud nor inferior. However, in this assessment, you may meet opponents. The guy who just went out saw it. His name is Li Xuanfeng, and he is your senior brother. Among Cangsongyuan's disciples, he is recognized as the first. How, will there be pressure. Songyu smiled.

"It turned out that he was Li Xuanfeng. In the past three years, this is the first time Lin Junxuan has seen him. So early, he came to Songyu's room, and he didn't know why. Songyu didn't mention it, so Lin Junxuan didn't ask.

"My goal is just to become a disciple of the Inner Sect and practice the authentic Dao, not to compete with anyone to be the first. Lin Junxuan sat down in front of the wooden table and said indifferently: "I have never been an enemy, so why compare." ”

"It seems that I have to remind you that your performance in the assessment will directly affect your future in the sect. After all, your Dao is still taught by the Master. If you perform well in the assessment, there will be stronger inner masters who will accept you as an apprentice. After all, among the people of my generation, there are also high and low levels of strength. The master's strength is not high, but how high can the disciples he bring out be?" Songyu said with a serious face.

"Hehe," Lin Junxuan didn't answer this question directly, but asked, "Uncle Shi, I don't know if you will be there during the assessment." If you're here, I'd like to be called Master instead. ”

"Oh," Songyu raised his eyebrows, obviously a little surprised by Lin Junxuan's words: "Do you want me to take you as an apprentice? I'm just a down-and-out man who is responsible for cleaning Cangsong Garden and tidying up the brooms at the same time." What is the future of becoming my apprentice?"

Songyu pointed to the room where he lived: "Become my disciple, do you want to live in such a room with me, and then live a lifetime?"

"Uncle Shi can't fool me, you said that you are just an ordinary person who cleans the courtyard, whether I believe it or not, do you think you can believe it?" "After being so far away, you can easily detect the movements of the entire Cangsong Garden, this is the ability of a cleaner? The down-and-out old man', coupled with the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, books, paintings on the wall, and the cleaning of the courtyard year after year, Lin Junxuan already had some kind of guess about this Songyu master, but he just lacked a kind of confirmation.

"Hehe, you have determined that I am a master, and I don't want to deny it. When you pass the assessment and meet the other elders of the Inner Sect, if you think I am suitable to be your master, it is not too late to talk. Songyu smiled and waved his hand: "Now, don't use my bald pen to practice anything." Go out and go back to your room and get ready for the afternoon test!"

"Uncle Songyu, then I'll go out first. If I pass the exam, I can't refuse my request. At the door, Lin Junxuan turned around again.

"Stinky boy, let's talk about it later. Songyu scolded with a smile.
