Chu He was determined not to follow Xiao Ningyan all the way, he always felt that this woman was not quite right, but Guan Sheng did have something temporary.

In the end, Chu He's heart was still not iron enough, and he succumbed to Xiao Ningyan's "obscenity" and silently followed her on the road.

The branch in the Demon Gate that uses the authority to recruit disciples will be called "Tang", and what Chu He and they are going to is "Yunzhou Hall". Generally speaking, in an area as large as Yunzhou, there will be at least three or more "Tang" level branches, but in fact there is only one.

This is due to the special situation in the south, there is a hanging island outside the three states, where the real great monks are concentrated, so the real headquarters of the Demon Gate in the south is also located there.

Fortunately, in order to avoid the Great Yan Imperial Capital, the Demon Gate set up the headquarters of Yunzhou in a southerly position, and with the footsteps of Chu He and the others, it only took a few days.

I don't know if it was Chu He's resistance, but it made Xiao Ningyan a little interested. After leaving Xiangzhou, she often walked around Chu He, asking some questions from time to time.

"Brother Kong, isn't it fun in the big sect?"

"Brother Kong, did you also practice in Yunzhou before?"

"Brother Kong......"

It wasn't until the two of them came to a small town and decided to rest for a while, Chu He finally couldn't bear this old witch who pretended to be tender, and said helplessly: "Miss Xiao, just call me Kong Sen directly." ”

"That's ......" Xiao Ningyan blinked, showing an innocent expression like a little girl, "Then you also call me Yan'er, okay?"

"Okay, Miss Xiao. ”

In the next few days, no matter how Xiao Ningyan tried to do it, Chu He didn't make a clear response, most of the time he just smiled politely, and refused to say anything at all.

And when Xiao Ningyan asked him about the past, Chu He replied with words such as "This is a long story", "The past is like smoke, don't mention it", "Let's talk about this later", in short, avoid talking about it.

After several times, Xiao Ningyan still didn't know that this guy who called himself "Kong Sen" had scruples about her in his heart.

It's just that the more this happens, the more curious she becomes, and at the same time, the sense of familiarity fills her mind.

How can a guy who has never met be wary of himself? Most of them are people who have known him before, or who know him but don't know him, there are too many such people.

However, Xiao Ningyan deliberately narrowed the distance between the two, although Chu He pretended to be cold, but along the way, the relationship between the two was still a lot closer.

The Yunzhou headquarters of the Demon Gate is located in Jianliang. Jianliang is one of the most important cities in the south of Dayan, with a developed economy and prosperous people's livelihood, which is not much better than the imperial capital.

"There are countless people in Jianliang, and there are several Jindan real people in our Demon Gate alone, don't make trouble for me, understand?"

As soon as he arrived in Jianliang, Xiao Ningyan began to tell Chu He. After getting along in the past few days, especially when she encountered some skirmishes on the road, she already has a general understanding of this Kong Sen's character, who is very honest on the surface, but will never show mercy when she moves.

However, this is also in line with Xiao Ningyan's impression of Kong Sen. After all, it is a person who comes to Yunzhou to work hard, and if he shows mercy everywhere, it is not normal.

Chu He smiled a little shyly, and responded, "It's all up to Miss Xiao." ”

Jianliang deserves to be the top city of Yanguo, which is much more prosperous than Xiangzhou. Chu He thought that he had seen the international metropolis in his previous life, and he should not have much feeling about the big cities of this world, but the facts made him dumbfounded.

The city of the cultivation world is far from being as simple as Chu He thought.

The city wall is hundreds of meters high, and the walls are carved with dense aura arrays, which will be opened immediately once there is an invasion of foreign enemies. Under the city wall are three gates, two open and one closed, and the central official road will only be opened when the big men of the Yan Kingdom come.

Although the monks are powerful and control the actual right to speak in this land, the authority on the surface is still handed over to the human emperor.

"Let's go. Xiao Ningyan patted Chu He's shoulder to bring him back to his senses, and then said with a smile, "There will only be a formal entrance test in the headquarters every three months, if you can seize the opportunity, maybe you will be able to be absorbed as an alternate doorman immediately." ”

After a few days, Chu He can be regarded as truly understanding the procedure of the Demon Gate to accept people.

To put it simply, the Demon Gate only implements the "recommendation system", and newcomers must be recommended by the old people, and then go to the church-level branch for testing before they are eligible to get started.

This point, even on the Hanging Island, is no exception, and it is an extremely special situation for someone like Chu He to come directly to the door, because it is usually impossible for anyone to find the branch of the Demon Gate. Speaking of which, Chu He also has to thank Xia Juetang.

The recommendation qualifications of the old people are also limited, and there is only one chance in three months, so the branch test will generally be carried out first. However, Xiangzhou let Xia Mansion make such a fuss, and there will be no fresh blood in a short time.

As long as it is a recommended monk, regardless of their cultivation, they can go to the hall branch to take the test. After the passage of guò, the foundation building period is directly introduced, and those in the gas refining stage become alternate disciples, and wait until the foundation is built before officially entering.

Speaking of which, the Demon Gate is a bit like that kind of large mercenary organization, but this organization is a little ridiculously strong.

Xiao Ningyan is still very confident in this Kong Sen's strength, but the entry test is not just strength, but requires them to complete a task for the Demon Gate, which tests a person's comprehensive ability.

The two came all the way to a small manor, and Chu He looked up to see that the door plaque clearly wrote the three big characters "Zhuang Huayuan".

"It's dirty. Chu He has always given such an evaluation of this kind of thing.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing. ”

Xiao Ningyan didn't understand the meaning of "soil" for the time being, and when Chu He was admiring, he led him into the manor. Coincidentally, as soon as the two entered, they ran into an acquaintance of Xiao Ningyan.

"I haven't seen you for 20 years, Xiao Shizhu's demeanor is still the same, which really makes the little monk embarrassed......"

This was a big bald head wearing a white monk's robe, and the first words he said made Chu He almost laugh, and Xiao Ningyan's face darkened.

She pretended to be tender all the way, but now she was inadvertently told by this monk, how could she not be annoyed, glared at the other party fiercely and said: "Dead bald head, who are you? Do we know each other......?

The monk seemed to have a good relationship with Xiao Ningyan, and he didn't get angry when he heard her words, but scratched his bald head, and said curiously: "Today is the day of the entrance test, this benefactor is ......"

"In the Lower Kongsen, I have seen the master. ”

Although Chu He had never been in contact with monks in his life, he was able to cope with basic greetings with some of his previous life.

Xiao Ningyan saw that she couldn't hide, and Chu He didn't continue to laugh at her, so she stood still hatefully, looking at the two people who were familiar with each other there.

"I've seen Master Kong, the little monk's name is not harsh......"

"Oh, it turned out to be Master Wu Ke. ”

"No, no, no, it's ...... no harshness"

After a long day's effort, Chu He figured out that the big bald head in front of him was called Wujiao, not Wu Ke, who he was familiar with. Monk Wushu came from the west, and because of some things, he couldn't stay in his own sect anymore, so he came all the way to Yunzhou.

However, it was before he entered the Demon Gate, and the power of the Demon Gate even existed in the western part of the country, where Buddhism was prevalent, and it was really not to be underestimated.

When Monk Wushu first came to Yunzhou, he met Xiao Ningyan, who was still outside the territory, and the two even killed people together and took treasures together, and the relationship was far better than Chu He imagined.

The purpose of Monk Wujiao's coming over this time is also similar to Xiao Ningyan, which is to lead a person into the Demon Gate, and this person is his disciple.

"Huiyi, come here. Monk Wuke beckoned behind him, and a girl with black hair in the same monk's robe as he poked her head out and ran over.

This girl looks like she is no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, and her cultivation is similar to Chu He, although she doesn't know how the Buddhism divides the realm of cultivation, but it shouldn't affect her age.

Chu He and Xiao Ningyan glanced at each other, and their gazes at Monk Wuxuan were a little strange.

Monk Wuxian probably saw too many of these eyes, and he didn't blush, and explained with a light cough: "Huiyi is the daughter of an old monk of the little monk, and the little monk saw that she was quite wise, so he accepted her as the heir of the mantle. ”

He didn't say how the old man was, but if he could let his daughter follow Wu Cao to the north and south, it was estimated that the end would not be very good.

The little girl Huiyi stepped forward, and Wu Ke introduced her: "This is your big brother Kong Senkong, and this is your Xiao ......."

"Huiyi is good, just call me sister. Xiao Ningyan interrupted Monk Wuxian's words, walked in front of Huiyi with a smile, took her little hand, and handed her a string of Buddhist beads, "This will be regarded as a meeting gift from my sister to you!"

Chu He squinted, but saw that the Buddha bead emitted a faint fluorescence, and even the sunlight in the manor couldn't hide it, thinking that it was a good Buddha weapon, at least at the level of a spiritual weapon.

Huiyi was frightened by her sudden enthusiasm, and was a little at a loss, and the monk said again: "Master Xiao Shi and the teacher have been friends for many years, so you can accept it...... This Buddha bead was snatched from your master and me back then, and now it has been returned to its original owner. ”

Monk Wushu said helplessly, and shook his head, while Chu He on the side pursed his lips, revealing an expression that was really like this.

He knew that Xiao Ningyan was not so generous, although it was a Buddhist weapon that he couldn't use...... The feeling is still to borrow flowers to offer Buddha.

The little girl Huiyi listened to the master's words, and then she accepted the Buddha beads with great gratitude, put them on her hands, and played with them.

Chu He also wanted to give this little girl some greeting gifts, but was stopped by Xiao Ningyan with his eyes, so he gave up. First, he has not yet built a foundation, and he is always half a generation behind, and secondly, he does not have Buddhist treasures in his hands.
