1263-Assessment is imminent (opening of Nanjing chapter)
Of course, it's all an afterthought, and it's too early to tell.
However, although Song Dazhe and Yue Qianqian ambushed the law, it is still a pity after a fierce battle, that is, the brothers Yuan Bingdao and Takenaka Masajiro took advantage of the chaos to run away and did not know where to go, and after Mao Xiaofang Dao Chang arrived to calm the battle situation, the two of them had already disappeared without a trace, which made Chen Guosheng really angry, after all, he had finally overcome many difficulties and obstacles along the way, and he was about to successfully escort the two brothers to Nanjing, and at this juncture, they had already lost their efforts......
But for Bai Wei and the fourth child, this is also a good thing, in fact, we all know that although the brothers are the Japanese onmyoji who invaded the Central Plains this time, their nature is not bad, if they can be trained well, I believe that they will become great weapons in the future.
After all, everyone has already run away, even if Chen Guosheng is a little annoyed, he can't regret it, so he didn't mention it again.
Taking advantage of everyone's rest outside the warehouse, Mao Xiaofang asked his apprentice Liu Dayang to help set up the altar, and began to practice in the warehouse to eliminate grievances, and when the Dharma was done, the sky was also bright, Bai Wei and the fourth child took the opportunity to squint for a while, and at dawn I only felt that my physical condition had improved a lot.
We didn't stay any longer, and after Mao Daochang finished the law, they all went back to Yanfang's small hotel in the city together, and now that the culprit is dead, Lin Yude finally got a knot, and he also knew that his wife would never come back, so naturally he could finally face Yanfang's love......
Yanfang is even more grateful to us, although as soon as we returned to the hotel, waves of tenants ran to the front desk with their butts to compete for the room, saying that the hotel was not clean, and noisy to make Yanfang lose money, but after this danger, Yanfang seems to have seen through, what money is not money, it is something outside the body, so Lehehe refunded everyone double the room price, the hotel stopped for a day, and bought fish and meat for us to celebrate......
We rested in the hotel for another three days, these three days because of Mao Xiaofang Daoist has been taking care of us, and using Maoshan secret medical skills to help us heal and relieve pain, three days, everyone has recovered a lot, at least they have been able to move freely......
……
On the fourth day, at eight o'clock in the evening, after dinner, I went back to my room to rest as usual, but as soon as I lay down on the bed to watch TV for a while, there was a soft knock on the door outside.
I hurriedly got out of bed and opened the door, how did I expect the door to open, and suddenly I felt a cold wind blowing along the crack of the door, I immediately shuddered, raised my guard and looked out, and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old Xiaodao boy standing outside, it was Mao Xiaofang's apprentice with him - Liu Dayang.
As soon as I opened the door, the boy stood in the doorway, staring straight at me, a pair of listless dead fish eyes that gleamed in the heart.
Seeing that he didn't speak, I first asked, "Dayang, what are you looking for me?" ”
"My master told you to go down to his room......" Liu Dayang said and pointed in the direction of Daochang Mao's room, then turned around and left.
I said in my heart that it was so late, what did Daochang Mao suddenly look for me?
But he didn't delay much, took the key and locked the door, and hurriedly followed Liu Dayang towards Mao Daochang's room.
"Dao Chief, what are you looking for me to do in the middle of the night? Can't sleep alone? It's not easy, I don't want to sleep with anyone except Bai Wei at the moment......"
I was joking and following Liu Dayang behind me to push the door in, but when I entered the door, I saw Bai Wei, Xiao Fei, Lao Si, the third girl, Chen Guosheng and Xiao Su all sitting in the room, staring at me directly, especially Bai Wei, when she heard what I just said, her face was swollen with anger, and the vicious gaze she stared at was like a knife that wanted to dismantle me......
This time, I was also embarrassed, stunned at the door and could only scratch my head hehe smirk, and I didn't know how to play a round for myself for a while.
Fortunately, at this time, I heard Mao Daochang, who was sitting in the whole seat, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you sleep with you, I'm old, I don't mix with this kind of thing...... Come and sit down......"
Hearing this, I quickly nodded, closed the door and sat on the bed not far from Mao Daochang, and as soon as I sat down, I saw Bai Wei, who was sitting on the side, moving towards Xiao Su on the other side, and scolded angrily: "You stay away from me, stinky rascal!" ”
"Misunderstanding...... It's all a misunderstanding......"
didn't allow me to explain, but Mao Daochang cleared his throat and asked with a slight smile: "Everyone, I have taken care of you in the past few days, and your recovery is not bad, there should be no big problem, right?" ”
After Daoist Mao finished speaking, Bai Wei took the lead and nodded, and said gratefully: "Daoist Mao, thanks to you this time, otherwise it is estimated that we will not even be able to save our lives......
"Haha, it's good that you're okay, after all, you're here to participate in the selection of Tianzhu Mansion......"
Speaking of this, Mao Daochang's face suddenly became gloomy, and he asked with a serious face: "The exam is coming, I plan to take you back to Nanjing early tomorrow morning, I wonder if you are ready?" ”
As soon as they heard this, everyone's expressions became solemn, and their eyes were focused on Mao Daochang, no one said a word of gossip, and the atmosphere in the whole room instantly became solemn......
Mao Daochang looked around at the people in front of him, and after looking at everyone, he said: "I heard in the past few days that all of you here want to scream at the assessment of Tianzhu Mansion this year, right, but how much do you know about the annual assessment of Tianzhu Mansion?" ”
Speaking of this, Mao Daochang's eyes suddenly fell on me, as if waiting for my answer, I was stunned, scratched my head and said, "This ...... To tell you the truth, I really don't know, I just know that as long as I pass this assessment, I can become a member of the Tianzhu Mansion......"
"You don't know anything, you dare to come, you really treat yourself as a dish...... What about the others? How much do you know? ”
Mao Daochang said and looked at the fourth child, Chen Guosheng, Xiao Su and others, how could he imagine that as long as his eyes fell on whom, the other party either shook his head or bowed his head, and sure enough, he didn't know the inside story of this assessment......
Only Bai Wei, when Daoist Mao's eyes fell on her, he listened to Bai Wei's deep words: "I do know something, the annual assessment period of Tianqi Mansion is set three months before the beginning of the Chinese New Year's Eve of that year, that is, a period of three months from the beginning of the year, during these three months, at the end of each month, Tianqi Mansion will do a registration, register all the Xuanmen people who came to Nanjing to apply for the Tianqi Mansion in the whole month, and start on the first day of the beginning of the next month, conduct a seven-day audit examination, and pass all the seven-day exams, then you can officially become a member of the Tianzhu Mansion......"
After listening to Bai Wei, Mao Daochang nodded with satisfaction and replied: "That's right, so to be precise, the annual assessment of Tianzhu Mansion is divided into three periods, starting from the day of the New Year's Lunar New Year, February and New Year, and a registration will be carried out at the end of the month, this is the first period, if the candidates fail to arrive in Nanjing to register in February, but in March, they will stay in Nanjing for a while longer, and wait until the end of March to register, if they do not catch up with the March exam, they will have to wait until April, and the April exam is the third period, It is also the last period, and after the registration of reference personnel at the end of April, the assessment of the whole year will come to an end......"
When Mao Dao said this, the fourth child was stunned and asked: "Then what if Dao'er is too far away and didn't rush to Nanjing in April?" Could it be that it has come to nothing? ”
"Yes," Mao Daochang nodded and said: "In the six hundred years since the establishment of Tianzhu Mansion since ancient times, there has always been only the first three months of each year to start the test, and after April is the beginning of summer, with the arrival of summer, every time one volt increases, the yin energy in the world will be heavier by one point, which is regarded as bad luck by the people in the Xuanmen, every year there will be many colleagues in the entire exorcism world who sacrifice on the way to subdue demons and subdue demons, and the season with the most sacrifices of the number of people every year is also the summer when the yin qi is the heaviest, so Tianzhu Mansion will only set the exam in the first three months, deliberately avoiding summer, It can be regarded as a kind of remembrance of the ancestors of our predecessors......"
"What about the summer? Why don't you hold an assessment in the fall? The fourth asked again.
