On February 15, it was a sting.

The country has abundant water transportation, and when it comes to the spring rains, the entire Izumo Castle is shrouded in misty mist. The spring rain is dripping, the roadside is full of vegetation and trees, and the road is muddy and difficult to walk.

Xu Yu was ragged and unkempt, and his steps seemed to be difficult on the dirt road. Although the road is difficult to walk and the rain is incessant, there are still many people walking with him on the road.

The three orthodoxes of Taoism have the saying of sacrificing three things and five things, and every three or five days, all Taoist orthodoxy will open the mountain gate to include disciples, and often open a door of practice for people in the world.

Over time, in order to demonstrate the authenticity, the sects will follow the monthly ritual of sacrificing three things and five things, but most of them are twice a month and will not be too frequent. Zhouzai Sect, as an immortal sect on the mountain in Lushui country, will also open the mountain gate to include disciples today. Xu Yu and the people who traveled on the road all came for this.

There are pedestrians on the road who are dressed in brocade clothes, and there are also farmhouse shorts, and there are many people like Xu Yu who are in tatters, most of whom are teenagers. Without exception, everyone walked through the mud to show their sincerity.

Among these people, there are children of official eunuchs, and there are also children of domestic families in Lushui, and people who know each other walk side by side, and there are not a few people who are dressed shabby and huddle together for warmth.

A carriage in the distance behind Xu Yu moved forward quickly, and after catching up with him, a middle-aged man in a green shirt on the car said arrogantly: "I am the steward of the Chen family in Nanlin, the thirteenth generation of the family heirloom, today the young master of my family also participated in the selection of the children of the Zhouzai Sect, I think you are quite smart, I want to accept you as the young master's servant, are you willing?" ”

This is the sixth person who came to inquire, Xu Yu ignored it, and in front of him was the Zhouzai Sect Mountain Gate, so there was no need to worry about these children of the family who apprenticed to the Mountain Gate.

Seeing that he didn't respond, the middle-aged steward had a gloomy look in his eyes but didn't dare to be angry, slowed down the carriage, and waited for his young master to come.

Two steps away from Xu Yu, a young man in brocade clothes looked twelve or thirteen years old, and when he saw the Chen family steward, he couldn't help but sneer: "Another one who takes a fancy to your cultivation posture, and there is no sincerity in recruiting talents, at least go to the rain like me." ”

Seeing that Xu Yu ignored it, the young man continued: "Do you want to think about it, they all want to take you into the family and become a slave, I am sincere, with your qualifications, plus the financial resources of my Lin family, you will soar in the sect for ten years at most." ”

After walking together for a while, Xu Yu and the young man named Lin Chen stepped on the bluestone paved mountain road, seeing that the sect was getting closer and closer, Lin Chen smiled and said: "Your qualifications are acceptable, but you must know that the selection of children by the Zhouzai Sect is not only based on qualifications, but also other tests, do you want to know what tests they are?" ”

A blurry figure was reflected in the Dazhi round mirror, Xu Yu raised his head, and glanced ahead with his eyes covered by his hair. In a short pavilion for rest, a woman sits upright, and the rest of the sight, neither her face nor her clothes.

Seeing him look up, Lin Chen thought that he was moved, and hurriedly said: "The selection of disciples to see the qualifications is the first thing, and the character is also very important. ”

The woman in the short pavilion looked at her curiously, and Xu Yu was very uncomfortable with this feeling. I can know that she has "seen", but I can't see anything except that she is a woman. Obviously, this is a monk whose cultivation realm is far higher than his, so that the Great Wisdom Circle Mirror can't cross the barrier of the realm.

He wanted to keep a low profile and enter the Zhouzai Sect, and then practice with peace of mind, Lin Chen leaked the exam questions to attract the attention of the other party, making him dissatisfied: "How did you know the exam questions?" ”

"The Lin family is a family of cultivators, and this little thing is not worth mentioning." Lin Chen said modestly, but the smug look on the young man's face flew, "As a first-class mountain sect, many things are not a secret to the family. ”

In order to confirm the strength of the Lin family, Lin Chen selected a few secrets of the Zhou Zai Sect. For example, the sect master went to the overseas islands for the seventh time some time ago to find a treasure medicine for his only daughter who was born with defects. The only daughter of the sect master ran out of the sect a few days later, and was bumped into by the children of a certain official eunuch when she was playing a game in the world, and even the monarch was angry about it.

There is even news that the Xiaoguang God Dynasty is looking for a sea area, and it is said to be a secret ancient place.

The more he spoke, the eyes of the woman in the short pavilion came frequently, making Xu Yu helpless, so he could only say: "If you shut up, I will promise you." ”

Lin Chen was excited, with such a talented little brother, it would be difficult to stand unstable in the sect in the future, and he was about to promise again, thinking that the condition was to shut up, he had to shut his mouth stupidly, and after a while, he felt that something was wrong.

The young master of the Lin family, the successor of the Lin family in the future, controls the trade of thirty percent of a country's cultivation resources, and in order to win over a future great cultivator, he promises so many benefits to no avail, because he thinks I talk too much?

The more he thought about it, the more angry Lin Chen became, obviously with an angry face, staring at Xu Yu and wanting to regain the dignity of the Lin family, but he didn't dare to say anything.

When passing by the short pavilion, the woman got up and walked with them generously, and said in a quiet voice: "You are here to participate in the selection of disciples of the Zhouzai Sect?" ”

Lin Chen glanced at Xu Yu, and seeing that he didn't want to speak, he replied: "The seniors are accompanying the juniors in the family to participate in the sect election, right?" ”

The woman smiled: "I just overheard that you know the exam questions for the sect to select disciples, and I want to inquire about it." ”

The Lin family, who had nowhere to vent, found a new person to talk to.

Along the way, facing some of the women's exam questions, Lin Chen analyzed and answered them in an orderly manner, and most of them could be recognized by the women. Seeing that the mountain gate is imminent, a huge mountain stone stands on the side of the mountain road, engraved with the three big characters of the boat carrying the sect, and there are sect disciples sitting on the side of the mountain stone sitting on the desk to log in to record the information of the person who signed up, and the woman said curiously: "You just said at the foot of the mountain that the sect master went overseas, so do you know when she will come back?" ”

"Seniors and sect masters?" Lin Chen smelled a different taste, "I don't know which family you are, maybe you are still friends with the Lin family." ”

The woman thought slightly, nodded and said, "You'll know later, by the way, where did your secrets come from?" ”

While speaking, the three of them came to the sect disciples who landed to receive them, Lin Chen felt that it was inappropriate to talk about these things again, and his eyes signaled that he would talk about it later.

The disciple of the Zhouzai Sect, who was sitting behind the desk, opened his sleepy eyes and saw the three of them, and immediately got up and said respectfully: "I have seen the sect master." ”

The woman stepped forward calmly, turned to look at Xu Yu and said, "This little guy is extraordinary, and he is exceptionally admitted to the inner door, so there is no need for assessment." ”

"By the way, this little fat man is a little dishonest, I'll ask him where the exam questions and the gossip about me came from."

She's the suzerain?

Xu Yu: ......

Lin Chen: ......

Let's not talk about the exam questions, in front of the main person, talk about people's privacy gossip, why do you have to say two or three things when you live separately from the Taoist couple, and you have a serious nose and eyes, is it really good?

After being stunned for a while, the woman disappeared into the mountain gate array, and Xu Yu said lightly: "I think the sect master of the Zhouzai Sect will return to the mountain gate today." ”

Lin Chen: ......

Don't talk much along the way, and don't talk when you open your mouth?

"I'm fat?" He was indignant.

It was Xu Yu's turn to be speechless again. Is there something wrong with the concern, along the way, I discussed with the sect master of the Zhouzai Sect how to cheat in the selection, saying that the relationship between husband and wife is not harmonious, and now I care about whether I am fat or not? Shouldn't you think about being chopped to death by a spell because of which foot entered the mountain gate first?

Xu Yu, who was opened the back door, was very conscious: "You dare to question the sect master's words? ”

Lin Chen's eyes widened: "Didn't you say that you would support each other after entering the sect, and you will defect now?" ”

It seemed that he also felt that he had done a little too much, Xu Yu was slightly silent, and then said: "Yes, I have entered the sect now, but you haven't yet." ”

Well? Looking at your age, can you be a person?

Watching Xu Yu walk into the mountain protection array, Lin Chen stood in the mountain wind with messy long hair.
