Chapter 33: The Deacon of the Outer Gate
Wang Huaiming wants to go to the outer gate, and it is not really an excuse.
During this period of time, every day that passed, the two handymen who served Song Pingcun would always give him a piece of paper, which was a modification of the cultivation of medicinal herbs he left for Song Pingcun.
Among them, there is the choice of tools, only to know that some medicinal materials need to be dedicated to a certain metal, and even some need trees, some need Yuan stones, and some can only use spiritual energy to gather shapes.
Originally, he could tell Jiang Gongfang to let Jiang Gongfang build it, but it happened that Song Pingcun was going to the outer gate, so he would simply go by himself and accompany him all the way to avoid accidents.
Of course, the reason why he told Song Pingcun was because he wanted to go to Jiang Gongfang by the way, and he was not familiar with the layout and road of the sect.
This reason made Song Pingcun unable to refuse.
Follow Wang Huaiming and let Song Pingcun know that in the depths of the Medicine Garden, which is also the right rear side of the Sect Master Peak, there is still a path to walk on, passing through the junction area between the Jiang Workshop and the Zongmen Minerals. Bypassing the Crane Peak and Tiger Roaring Peak, under the cliff where the entrance assessment was originally made is the outer gate of the deacon's hall, which greatly exceeded Song Pingcun's imagination.
Originally, I thought that the outer gate should be outside the sect, but I never thought it was here.
Along the way, Wang Huaiming did not fly with him, but walked to the ginger workshop, and then asked for a carriage loaded with ore, just like an old man and a young man traveling in the mountains and rivers.
While walking, Wang Huaiming also introduced the differences between the peaks, the peaks of the sect, the fangs, and the halls to Song Pingcun, who was temporarily regarded as a "junior brother", so that Song Pingcun had a clearer understanding of some of the internal structures and settings of the Poyuan Sect for the first time, which was more real than what Mu Ling observed.
That's it, it took an hour for the two of them to reach the location of the outer gate.
The overseer, who had a handyman at the outer gate, saw the two of them coming slowly in a car from a distance, and hurriedly reported to Zhang Kuo.
This year, in addition to the ten miscellaneous servants sent by the Luo family, there was no additional recruitment of miscellaneous servants, but only about 20 people were selected among the people who had not passed the assessment, and the biggest difference between these miscellaneous servants and other miscellaneous servants is that they will become supervisors in the future, of course, the premise is through inspection.
There is only one exception, that is, the little fat man of the Luo family who he stayed behind at the beginning, but was later taken away by the deacon hall.
Seven days later, the little fat man sent him back and told him that he would be treated the same as the new disciples. It is necessary to go to the Chuangong Hall to attend classes every ten years on time, and this is about the first time that the sect has personnel from the outer sect to enjoy the treatment of inner disciples.
A few days ago, when the deacon hall of the sect sent Luo Yan'er over, Zhang Kuo was very surprised and asked the reason. Knowing that it was the new Elder Song who deliberately made it happen, he was even more puzzled.
Although he didn't know much about the affairs in the sect, he didn't seem to have the impression that anyone could be promoted to an elder in the short term, and there was no news recently that the familiar sect came to watch the ceremony, how could a new elder suddenly appear, and his surname was "Song", which made him have a guess that he couldn't even believe it.
It's a pity that Luo Yan'er didn't know when she asked, and she didn't seem to remember who she was, and she suddenly understood that Luo Yan'er should have been sent to a certain place in the sect a few days ago, and it shouldn't have been possible to meet again. was sent out by this Elder Song, but his memory was erased.
He knows this method, but the person who erases the memory should obviously be stupid, but Luo Yan'er just doesn't have this memory in the sect, only the memory from the Luo family to the Broken Yuan Sect, as her father said at the beginning, the Breaking Yuan Sect is here to serve Zhang Kuo.
Zhang Kuo couldn't think of it and didn't think about it for the time being, for the inner door elder, there was something that the outer gate couldn't compare in his life, and he was no longer a disciple now, just a disabled outer door deacon.
If someone is willing to help him, he will help, but he will not be able to give any return gift and help to the elders anyway.
On this day, he was checking the recent accounts at the outer gate, and an overseer outside hurriedly came and told him that two elders from the sect had come in a carriage, and he hurried out to greet him. After seeing who the two people were, he finally realized that the guess that he didn't even believe in was true.
"Zhang Kuo has seen Wang Zhenren and Elder Song." Zhang Kuo used to be a dazzling new star in the inner gate, if it wasn't for the accident, he might have already achieved a lot of energy.
Being able to serve as a deacon at the outer gate is also the Master's arrangement. Although he still has hatred in his heart, he just doesn't dare to let people know. Wang Zhenren is the master's senior brother, and Song Pingcun and Wang Zhenren came in the same sauce-colored robe, no matter how shocked, it is already obvious that Song Pingcun has actually become an elder of the sect, could it be that this young man is already in the realm of enlightenment? !
"Zhang Kuo, how are you doing?" Wang Huaiming and Song Pingcun got out of the carriage and looked at the hunchbacked Zhang Kuo in front of them, the most proud disciple of this junior brother, after all, he still felt a pain in his heart.
"Xie Zhenren cares, it doesn't matter if it's good or not, it's better to die than to live, finally this remnant body can still be of some use to the sect." Although Zhang Kuo didn't vent, he had become accustomed to talking like this over the years, and both the elders and disciples in the sect knew his grievances and didn't care.
At the moment when Wang Huaiming and Song Pingcun came in, the waves that had already been set off in Zhang Kuo's heart could not be suppressed no matter how he was, and it also made him a little habitual and unobtrusive in the face of his former uncle.
Wang Huaiming frowned slightly, almost twenty years have passed, and the anger in Zhang Kuo's heart has not calmed down, and it is not easy for him to reprimand him for the sake of his junior brother's face. can only be regarded as a junior who lost his politeness and opened his mouth to talk about what happened.
He did not accept Zhang Kuo's invitation to sit at the outer door, but took out a slip and handed it to Zhang Kuo, which recorded the names of some ores.
When Zhang Kuo ordered someone to pick it up, he asked seemingly casually: "Is Luo Yan'er used to it?"
Wang Huaiming didn't want to introduce Song Pingcun's identity, and since Zhang Kuo had already called him "Elder Song", his eyesight was still there, so there was no need to say more.
"Thank you real people, it's all right! Thank you also Elder Song for making it complete. Zhang Kuo secretly glanced at Song Pingcun, who was looking around without saying a word.
"I always remember what Deacon Zhang said at Luo's house that day. Thinking that Miss Yan'er is familiar with the deacon, it can be regarded as a good thing. Song Pingcun is a 12-year-old ignorant teenager, and he knows a little about one or two men and women, but he doesn't know how to describe this relationship.
"You know?" Wang Huaiming was a little surprised.
"I was able to participate in the sect assessment that day, all because of Deacon Zhang's recommendation in the Luo family." Song Pingcun answered Wang Huaiming honestly.
"I see" The outer door of the sect has to interact with various affiliated families, and it is normal for some intersections. As soon as the hundred-year-old Wang Huaiming heard Song Pingcun's answer, he knew that this Luo Yan'er was about Zhang Kuo's good looks, so it seems that the Luo family sent Luo Yan'er to do miscellaneous labor, which was also the intention.
It's just that neither the Luo family nor Zhang Daguang expected that these ten miscellaneous servants were taken to the herb garden by their own brains, but fortunately, Song Ping had good intentions, otherwise it is really unknown whether Zhang Kuo would have a grudge in his heart at that time.
Song Pingcun's kind gesture invisibly reduced the possibility of some Zhang Kuo's resentment, and he is really a kind and righteous little guy with a good character. Thinking of this, he decided to add fuel to the fire, and then said to Zhang Kuo: "Elder Song can think of these things for you, and it is also your own good deeds that day, with this good result, you can do it yourself!" ”
Zhang Kuo nodded yes, but he was actually very angry in his heart. This "gift" was supposed to belong to him, but now he has to thank a hairy boy. He looked at Wang Huaiming and Song Pingcun, and a strong jealousy and unwillingness surged in his heart.
"Okay, Elder Song is also here to take care of it, nothing else. After I need to prepare it in a while, put it on the carriage, and Elder Song and I will walk around at will, and you can also go with your business." Wang Huaiming stopped at the point and didn't say anything more.
Then, with Song Pingcun, he really went towards the gate where the mine was located.
