Chapter 176: Ruining People's Futures (2nd Update)
The five teams are: two Tianlinggen, ten winners of the ring competition, thirty suppliers of rare materials, fifty-five special elders of the Dan Runic Array, and five candidates recommended by the city lord.
There were one hundred and two people in total.
Yan Zixiu found that Hongxun, the blue-clothed monk who bullied Shuangqin in the night market, stood at the end of the recommended candidates.
Na Hongxun also saw Yan Zixiu and Shuangqin. He wondered in his heart, wasn't this young man in white a friend of the city lord? How do you stand in the ranks of the elderly? It seems to be very familiar with the girl in yellow? Are they in a gang?
Shuangqin saw Hongxun, a little unhappy, and turned her head to stop looking at him.
Hongxun was afraid of being scolded by his uncle a few days ago, and he was afraid that the city lord would cancel the recommendation quota if he knew what he was doing, so he didn't dare to ask his uncle to verify the identity of the young man in white.
Now that he has been recommended, although he narrowly ended up at the end, he finally feels stable. I began to think about it again.
He quietly sent a note to his uncle, asking him if he remembered that there was a young man in white at the banquet in the City Lord's Mansion, and he was now standing in the queue of the elders.
His uncle's name is Wen Kang, a monk in the late stage of Jindan, and his identity is the captain of the Purple Mist City Guard.
Captain Wenkang received the message from his nephew, saw Yan Zixiu in the crowd, and was not impressed after thinking about it. replied to his nephew: "There was no young man in white at the banquet at that time. ”
Hongxun thought to himself: Okay, I actually deceived Lao Tzu's head, see how I clean you up.
At the moment, a group of people flew out of the City Lord's Mansion and stopped in the air in front of everyone. Elder Meng and Deacon Gu were both standing behind the group.
Although there is a no-fly rule in the city, it is ineffective for these people.
The first two, one with white beard and white hair and red face, and the other with a purple face are tall and mighty, both of them are Yuan Infant monks.
The latter, Yan Zixiu, knew that he was the Venerable Jingwei, the city lord of Purple Mist City. He had seen it when he had used the Time Rewind technique to check Hongxun's experience.
The gaze of the two Venerables swept down, and the monks below all felt a great pressure.
Yan Zixiu couldn't use the protective array at this time, so he also felt the amazing coercion naturally revealed by the Yuan Infant Monk. If the two bigwigs deliberately release it, it is estimated that none of the people below will survive. And under this glance, people feel that all the inside and outside of the body are seen through, and it seems that there is no secret at all.
Of course, the Xianfu and Qiankun rings are exceptions. The level of such treasures is beyond the level of this world.
Venerable Jingwei, the Lord of Purple Mist City, said loudly: "Fellow Daoists, this deity is the City Lord of Purple Mist City. I think many people know each other. This guest beside me is the Vast Venerable of the Divine Heaven Gate. Thanks to the attention of Shenxiaomen, I held an immortal ascension conference in my Purple Mist City. The whole city rejoiced. Now the conference is complete, and Shenxiaomen has won many talents. On behalf of the monks and residents of Purple Mist City, the deity would like to extend his heartfelt congratulations to the Divine Sky Gate! Next, I would like to invite His Holiness Hao Han to give you a lecture. ”
The Vast Venerable with a childish face nodded his head to the Jingwei City Lord and began to speak: "The deity would like to thank the people of Purple Mist City for their support. Dear Taoist friends, my Shenxiaomen has always advocated doing things first, the capable go up, and the mediocre go down. As long as you work hard, the future will be bright. ……”
Yan Zixiu thought to himself, do things first? What about the human heart? If the sect puts things first, it can only become a powerful machine without feelings, turning the monks into screws.
Doing things first will inevitably hurt people's hearts between success and failure. When people's hearts are broken, they can only rely on interests to bridge differences. When there is no benefit, only the tree falls and scatters.
He saw these truths more and more thoroughly.
“…… All right. If nothing else, we're ready to go. His Holiness concluded his speech.
"I have something to say!" Suddenly, a voice rang out through the square.
Everyone was shocked that at this festive juncture, someone dared to come out to disturb the scenery.
When I looked closely, it turned out to be a blue-clothed monk standing in the queue recommended by the city lord and raising his hand to speak.
The Jingwei City Lord was very unhappy, because this was tantamount to making trouble for him, and it seemed that the quality of the people he recommended was not good. Since it was recommended by him, of course he knew who it was. The nephew of the captain of the guard, Wenkang.
Na Wenkang gave a lot of gifts to the top and bottom, so he reluctantly stuffed him into the end of the recommended candidates.
At this critical moment, there is a moth, I really don't know what to do, and I don't even know whether to live or die. If you can say something, that's fine, if you talk nonsense, you have to give this uncle and nephew a good look.
Venerable Haohan's mood was originally good, but at this time, he was broken, and he was a little displeased: "Jingwei City Lord, what does this mean?" ”
The Jingwei City Lord's face began to look unsightly.
Wen Kangke, the captain of the guard, was frightened and hurriedly gestured to Hongxun's eyes. In fact, he didn't know what his eyes and gestures meant, and he didn't know how to end up next.
In the eyes of thousands of people, the Jingwei City Lord had no way to retreat, so he had to ask helplessly: "You, what do you have to say?" ”
"Enlighten the two Venerables, there are people in this queue who are deceiving and deceiving the Venerable."
The people in the square were buzzing for a while, and not talking like this at a critical moment was not ruining the future of others?
The Jingwei City Lord held back his anger: "Who is so bold. Do you have proof? ”
"Yes! I have two witnesses. He is the one who cheats! Hongxun pointed at Yan Zixiu, "He pretended to be a friend of the city lord." ”
The Jingwei City Lord was stunned: "Someone dares to pretend to be my friend?" ”
"Yes."
The city lord is a monk in the Yuan Infant Stage, and a young monk in the Qi training period dares to pretend to be a friend, if it is true, he is indeed not small. According to the rules of the immortal cultivation world, the responsibility is not light. If you say that you can pinch to death, you can pinch it to death, like an ant.
Shuangqin trembled with fright, how can this be good.
Zhilin was in the queue not far away, clenching his fists. He thought that if the city lord listened to and believed partially, even if he didn't want to open up the future of Shenxiao Gate, he would have to explain it.
Elder Meng was a little worried, this kid was a good seedling he was looking for, how could he have the audacity to pretend to be the city lord's friend?
Yan Zixiu calmly watched the blue-clothed monk perform.
The lord of the city shouted, "Where is your witness?" ”
Hongxun beckoned to the crowd watching the bustle, and two roe head rat-eyed people came out of it, the two accomplices in the night market.
The two men bowed their hands: "We testify that this young man in white does claim to be at the banquet of the City Lord's Mansion and is standing beside the City Lord. ”
They were telling the truth, because they didn't dare to lie in front of the Yuan Infant Monk, in case they were searched for souls. Now it's up to who's more truthful.
The Jingwei City Lord was annoyed, and his gaze turned to Yan Zixiu: "What do you have to say?" "Inadvertently, the coercion began to increase.
Yan Zixiu suddenly felt that Mount Tai was overwhelmed, and hurriedly ran Na Luo Yangong, trying his best to withstand the huge pressure. However, there is no room for words.
If the city lord continued to increase the pressure, in order to save his life, he would have to activate the Ruyi Protective Array.
The vast elder of Shenxiao Gate was displeased, and with a wave of his sleeves, he dispelled the city lord's coercion: "City lord, let the family speak." ”
On the one hand, he was a little disdainful, what do these Chen Sesame Rotten Grains have to do with Shenxiaomen? What Shenxiaomen wants is talent. No matter what these people say, they are already disciples of Shenxiao Sect, so it's a bit too much not to let them talk.
On the other hand, he was still a little curious, it turned out that this kid in white was not only a hair repair, but also an individual repair. No wonder it can resist the inadvertent coercion of the Yuan Infant Monk.
Only then did the Jingwei City Lord realize that he was a little out of shape, you let the family talk, and at the same time release coercion, what's the matter. He hurriedly withdrew the coercion: "Say it quickly!" ”
