Chapter 133: A Chance Encounter
(haha, book friends are so interesting, the name of the inn is not an advertisement, and the stars are not open an inn in a certain river~ It is indeed a huge project to write a book and choose a name 192338713!
"Little Er, hurry up and get some wine!" shouted a big man with a beard on his face, but his voice was immediately drowned out by all kinds of jokes and persuasions, and the whole inn was noisy.
"It's coming!" a boy dressed as a shopkeeper of fifteen or sixteen years old ran around the venue with a plate. On the ground floor of the inn is a tavern where people are drinking and laughing and talking.
There are now a lot of customers gathered in the museum, and the only one is very busy.
"This inn is located in the valley, and it is still the meeting place of the Immortal Gate every year, does your shopkeeper have a friendship with the Gathering Soul Valley?" asked a middle-aged man with a thin face and a gloomy face as the boy served wine to a table of people.
"I don't know about this little one, the little one is just helping the relatives at home!" the boy grinned, and quickly ran to the other table. The middle-aged man snorted and tasted the wine thoughtfully.
In a corner of the room, Jiajun sat alone at an empty table, looking at everything around him with a smile.
As soon as he entered the door and saw the shopkeeper, he was secretly happy. This boy was the little monk of the Soul Gathering Valley who showed mercy to the little monk of the Gathering Soul Valley when he took the inheritance of the Dharma Pure Venerable on the day. I'm afraid that the introductory test of Gathering Soul Valley has begun, right? But seeing him, Jiajun suddenly had another plan in his heart.
"Xiao Er, where is your boss?" At the other table, several men dressed as young samurai spoke, obviously everyone was quite curious about the origin of this inn.
"The shopkeeper is not there, and the little one doesn't know when he will come back. Xiao Er's face was helpless, "The guest officer enjoys the wine to his heart's content, and every year when he worships the Immortal Gate, the wine money is paid by the immortal master of the Gathering Soul Valley." ”
Hearing him say this, everyone didn't ask much anymore, after all, this inn should have something to do with Gathering Soul Valley, and they didn't dare to be too presumptuous here.
In this case, you might as well test this shop first, Jia Jun smiled secretly in his heart. It was at this time that a discordant voice came.
"Boy, you don't have long eyes when you walk!?" a low, hoarse voice sounded.
"Bastard, you crashed into it!" a slightly childish-sounding voice roared with anger.
Jia Jun looked at it smoothly, and the immature voice came from a handsome young man who looked sixteen or seventeen years old and was dressed as a hunter. He was not tall, with a dagger pinned to his waist and a stiff bow behind his back, slightly larger than his size. Under the two thick sword eyebrows, a pair of dark and bright eyes were revealing an angry gaze.
Opposite him stood a middle-aged man dressed in a sloppy linen robe, and there were a few reckless men around him, all of whom should be in a group, and these people were staring at the young man domineeringly.
It was clear that he was deliberately finding fault, and when Jiajun just entered the house, although there were unkind glances around him, his dress was obviously not to participate in the fight.
Although the chance of being directly selected as a destined person is small, everyone will generally stay away from such a person, so as not to accidentally offend a great god. And this young man's dress is that he is planning to participate in the martial arts selection at first glance, and when he comes here at his age, he is naturally greatly excluded.
"Boy, don't you think your life is long? Do you want to come to fight martial arts?" Several reckless men continued to sneer and laugh, they did nothing more than use this young man to open the knife, show off their strength in front of all opponents, and establish their strength for the future fight.
Jiajun shook his head, in this kind of life-and-death competition, the most haode way is not to show off force, but to hide strength in a low-key manner, how can these reckless men understand this truth. The others around didn't care about this matter, only a few people watched the play with expressionless faces, and most of them were still drinking and laughing.
The young man was surrounded by these big men more and more tightly, and Jia Jun stared at the shopkeeper who was still busy with himself, and frowned thoughtfully. Immediately afterward, he controlled the release of a mana of about the strength of the Enlightenment Realm, and one of the big men suddenly screamed and fell to the ground with a "plop".
The hunter boy was startled by the sudden change in front of him, and looked around blankly.
"Who dares to hurt my brother with a secret weapon?" a reckless man roared. The people around them didn't pay much attention to them, and few people cared about what had just happened.
"Oh, the guest officer is injured, the immortal master is coming tomorrow, it's important to heal!" The shopkeeper ran out at this time, and Jia Jun obviously felt that the boy had just glanced at him, but he immediately went to coax and persuade these big men to go upstairs, leaving only the hunter boy there in a daze.
As expected, after the shopkeeper went downstairs again, he walked to Jiajun's side seemingly unintentionally.
"My shopkeeper upstairs, please!"
The boy bowed his head and whispered in his ear, and then went upstairs again. Jia Jun raised his eyebrows thoughtfully, and after a slight pause, he also followed upstairs.
"Where's your shopkeeper?" followed the boy into an empty room on the third floor, and Jiajun asked deliberately. His perception had already swept over, and the entire inn was just a monk for this boy.
"Little brother, you hurt people just now, right?" The boy changed the image of the shopkeeper who had just groveled, and instead showed a look of arrogance, he looked at Jiajun and asked with a faint smile.
"Mana release, you have reached the spiritual rest period, I have been ordered to guard the door in the past few years, you are still the first person I have met!
"Someone who is destined?" Jia Jun looked surprised.
"Yes, I am the guiding monk of the Gathering Soul Valley, looking for someone destined here! Whether you are a casual cultivator or have already worshiped the sect, as long as you come to my Gathering Soul Valley to make a soul oath, you will be a disciple of my Gathering Soul Valley in the future. Little junior brother, your entry is the spiritual rest period, and it will really impress the masters and elders!"
"Huh, are you the immortal master of Gathering Soul Valley?" Jia Jun opened his mouth, and the boy in front of him had a smug expression on his face, as if he was very satisfied with his previous appearance.
"Then their martial arts tomorrow...... And what is this soul oath?"
"Fighting martial arts?" the boy snorted disdainfully, "It's just a blood sacrifice that comes to the door every year, how can mortals without immortal fate be included in the door?" As for the soul oath, it is a poisonous oath of allegiance. After it is issued, you will not be allowed to betray me for the rest of your life, this is the entry requirement of Gathering Soul Valley!"
I see, Jiajun suddenly realized. The so-called martial arts are just a gimmick made by the Gathering Soul Valley, deceiving the living warriors into coming from casting nets to refine ghosts! This sect of ice refining old demons is really vicious, and it takes the opportunity to accept disciples every year to kill two birds with one stone! And you have to take a poisonous oath to get started? This is also too domineering, and I haven't heard of any sect that requires a poisonous oath when accepting disciples. Jiajun thought quickly in his mind for a while, and after figuring out this, he was basically sure of his next plan.
"After taking a poisonous oath, what will happen if you break it?" he asked lightly, and the temperament on his body suddenly changed somewhat. If you violate the ordinary spiritual oath, you will leave yourself with inner demons, and it will be difficult to advance half a step in cultivation in the future, so high-ranking monks will never dare to violate their spiritual oath. But this Gathering Soul Valley, let the beginner disciples swear a poisonous oath, it shouldn't be as simple as a mental oath.
"What?" the boy was stunned, as if he didn't expect the other party to ask this kind of question, "This poisonous oath is not an ordinary spiritual oath, but it was sent to the treasure of my faction's town faction 'Star Luo Doutian Array', which is much stronger than ordinary oaths!
"Sure enough, if it was the Star Luo Doutian Array, this matter would be easy to handle. ”
"Are you a spy from another sect?" Seeing him like this, the boy's face became vigilant, "If you have any different intentions, leave as soon as possible!
"It's not me who will break the oath, it's you!"
