Volume 3 The Rebellion of Xianluo Town Chapter 123 The Governor Summons
The director's office is on the third floor of the lobby.
There were a total of five newcomer cultivators who went with them. Among them naturally include Li Kun, Liang Runan and Zhuo Feng. There are two other people, but Li Kun doesn't recognize them. Both men were in their mid-twenties.
The Steward personally greeted him at the door.
Li Kun and others entered the office.
The manager's office is huge, and what is puzzling is that the light inside is not very sufficient, and it is even a little dim. Moreover, as soon as I walked into the room, I clearly felt that there was a sense of coercion in it.
Obviously, Liang Runan and the others felt it, and the five of them all glanced at each other invariably, and a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes.
The manager seemed to sense everyone's abnormality, smiled busily, and said, "Don't worry, there will naturally be no danger here." ”
Li Kun and the others had no choice but to follow the manager in.
The manager led them into the living room inside the office, politely sat them down, and then said with a smile: "First of all, congratulations on your good results in this rookie test. The five of you are the best grades. Let me introduce it first. ”
The chief manager immediately pointed at Zhuo Feng and said proudly: "I believe everyone knows him, his name is Zhuo Feng, his qi training level is the eighth order, and the sword formation test score is eight levels. In this rookie test, the overall score ranked first. ”
Zhuo Feng still blushed shyly, and said softly: "Don't dare to bear it." ”
The governor pointed to another young man. The young man was about twenty years old, white-clothed and snowy, and his appearance was good, but there was a faint hint of evil between his eyebrows and eyes, and he smiled when he looked at people, but that smile always felt a little fake.
Although Li Kun lacks the ability to read people, he can clearly feel hypocrisy from this young man. For such people, he naturally disdains to make friends. However, there are countless scattered cultivators here, and when the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, so it is not surprising that what kind of people appear. For this reason, Li Kun didn't care.
Li Kun subconsciously stared at Zhuo Feng, and what puzzled him was that Zhuo Feng was also secretly looking at that person, and there was a slight wariness in his eyes!
Li Kun couldn't help but be surprised, and said secretly: "Zhuo Feng's strength is obviously stronger than this person, but why is he quite afraid of this young man in white?"
Li Kun was thinking in his heart, but he heard the manager introduce: "This is called Chang Ying." His results this time were also very good, his qi training level was seventh-order, and the sword formation level was also seventh-level. ”
Chang Ying hurriedly stood up, waved at everyone, and pretended to smile modestly: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm not far behind, I hope to get everyone's support and care in the future." ”
Everyone nodded politely, but Zhuo Feng ignored him, and his eyes seemed to be evading.
Chang Ying was slightly stunned, but took the initiative to show goodwill: "Brother Zhuo Feng is quiet and introverted, and he has such attainments at a young age, which is really admirable." I wonder if I will be lucky enough to be able to be friends with you in the future, day and night, in order to make progress together?"
Zhuo Feng said coldly: "Don't dare." Brother Chang is enthusiastic, and naturally there is no shortage of friends, so why should the younger brother be fun?"
Zhuo Feng actually rejected Chang Ying in person, which surprised everyone present. However, Li Kun was secretly refreshed, he didn't have a good impression of Chang Ying, and he didn't have any special feelings for this Zhuo Feng, but just now he helped Liang Runan in the service hall, and he was immediately impressed by him, and he had the intention of making friends.
Li Kun subconsciously glanced at Liang Runan, and coincidentally Liang Runan was also looking at him, and the two looked at each other and smiled, understanding.
Chang Ying touched the nail, and his face was a little unbearable, but he didn't have the slightest anger, just smiled awkwardly.
This man's city is so deep!
Li Kun immediately gave Chang Ying this judgment, and secretly made up his mind to avoid him in the future.
The manager hurriedly came out to play a round, smiled, and said: "Everyone comes from all over the world, with different temperaments, this friendship, the coming day is long, and there is no hurry." ”
As the manager spoke, he pointed to another young man and introduced: "This is called Wang Hu, and his grades are the same as Chang Ying's." ”
Wang Hu is not tall, but he is very strong, there is nothing special about his appearance, only a pair of small eyes are extremely smart, giving people a sense of restlessness.
Wang Hu hurriedly hugged his fists at everyone and said, "Please take care of me." ”
The others didn't pay much attention to it, just nodded in response. Wei Changying was quite enthusiastic, and hugged her fists and saluted back: "Each other." ”
Next, the manager introduced Liang Runan.
The manager pointed at Liang Runan excitedly, and said loudly: "This girl, I guess everyone doesn't need me to introduce you, right?"
Everyone nodded knowingly, and Zhuo Feng smiled at Liang Runan even more rarely.
The manager smiled and said, "Liang Runan's grades are the same as Chang Ying and Wang Hu, and the female cultivators in our service department haven't had such good results for many years. It's a rarity!"
Liang Runan smiled modestly, but didn't say anything.
Seeing that Liang Runan didn't mean to be funny, the manager didn't say much, and finally looked at Li Kun and said loudly: "This little friend, I want to introduce it in special place today." ”
Who knows, before the manager finished speaking, Chang Ying actually rushed to interrupt the manager in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Do you need to introduce this? Who knows the casual cultivators present today, who doesn't know Brother Li Kun?"
The other four newcomer cultivators, including Li Kun, all looked at Chang Ying with strange eyes, and they didn't understand why he was so bold and could interrupt the manager so rudely?
The manager's face sank, but he didn't have a seizure, and deliberately coughed.
Chang Ying immediately realized that she was Meng Lang, and closed her mouth in a hurry, but there was no obvious sense of shame and uneasiness in her expression, and she still looked at Li Kun with a smile.
I don't know what it was based on, the manager's displeasure was fleeting, and he quickly recovered his good mood and continued: "For Li Kun's achievements, this manager would like to make a special explanation. There must have been something wrong with his Qi Cultivation Level Test, resulting in his Qi Cultivation Level Test score of zero. Li Kun could have applied for an artificial retest, but he refused. According to the rules of our service department, we had to respect his decision. Therefore, his Qi Cultivation Level Test results are still valid. As a result, there is a rather awkward composition of grades, which may create a certain obstacle for him to join the Loose Order. However, the manager felt that this was the responsibility of our service department, so the manager specially came to him today to solve this problem. ”
As the chief manager spoke, he said solemnly to Li Kun: "Our service department has made a decision on this, you will have the right to join any Loose Cultivation Sect, and no Loose Cultivation Group can refuse you. This is a kind of compensation from our service department. ”
As soon as the manager's voice fell, Chang Ying couldn't help but snort coldly and said, "I'm afraid that the chief manager will be too worried, I dare to guarantee that almost all the scattered cultivation groups will try their best to recruit him." ”
Wang Hu also said: "Yes, I have heard that both the first regiment and the second regiment have this meaning. Not to mention other loose cults. ”
In any case, the manager is also kind, and Li Kun can't help but accept this feeling. For this reason, he hurriedly stood up and said politely: "Thank you Lord Steward for taking care of you." ”
In fact, before this, Li Kun had already seriously pondered this problem, the reason why his qi training level was zero was definitely because of the sword spirit in his body, which could not be known to anyone. However, his obviously unreasonable results will inevitably make people suspicious. For the sake of safety, after careful consideration, he absolutely could not admit that he had not practiced Qi cultivation. Moreover, it is necessary to find an appropriate time to clarify the matter, in order to dispel the suspicions of people with ulterior motives.
At this point, since the governor mentioned the matter again, this was an opportunity.
For this reason, Li Kun pretended to be sincere and said: "Actually, my Qi cultivation level was not zero originally, and there was no problem with the results of this test, it was a problem with my own body. ”
"Oh?" exclaimed the manager, "what's wrong with you?"
In order not to make people suspicious, what Li Kun said must be mixed between truth and falsehood, which he has already thought about.
Li Kun sighed deliberately and said, "I have a very serious internal injury in my body,"
"Internal injuries?" Liang Runan couldn't help but ask, with obvious concern on his face.
Zhuo Feng also looked at Li Kun with concern.
Wang Hu and Chang Ying both looked at Li Kun with puzzled expressions.
The manager hurriedly asked with concern, "How did you get hurt? Did you get hurt?"
Li Kun shook his head and said, "No, it's my own cultivation that has a problem." I came to Xianluo Town this time to recuperate from my injuries. ”
The steward nodded, "No wonder." ”
Zhuo Feng took the rare initiative to say, "Brother Li, you have to be careful, it is very troublesome to have problems with cultivation, this is the sorrow of our scattered cultivators. Those big sects don't have any worries about this, because cultivation is guaranteed by the system, so it's not easy to have problems. ”
Liang Runan also sighed: "Yes." ”
The chief manager seemed to be touched and said, "The problem of the cultivation system does exist. However, for casual cultivators, there are not many things that go wrong in cultivation, and the most critical problem is that it is difficult to break through the bottleneck in cultivation. Therefore, over the years, our service department has been committed to seeking cooperation with those big Xiuzhen sects. ”
Li Kun had heard Lang Tao say before that the city lord of Gongsun once wanted to recommend Lin Yue to the Immortal Gate. From this point of view, this is not a rumor. It turned out that this Xianluo Town was nominally not under the jurisdiction of the major Xiuzhen sects, but there was an undercurrent surging in it, and there was still the infiltration of the Xiuzhen sect.
Li Kun was quite worried that the Cloud Gate Sect seemed to be involved, so he deliberately asked tentatively, "Which sects does our service department currently communicate with?"
The chief manager said: "Presumably you should also have some understanding, our Immortal Fall Town is located in the place where the two forces of the Cloud Gate Sect and the Qi Immortal Sect meet. It was a special area that they ceded to avoid disputes. Therefore, since ancient times, both the Cloud Gate Sect and the Immortal Sect have strictly adhered to this agreement and have not set foot in Xianluo Town. It is precisely because of this that the other sects have also tacitly abided by this rule, except for sending disciples to the secret realm to cultivate during the training conference, no sect has dared to control Xianluo Town without authorization. So. Over the years, our service department has not been under the control of any sect, but we have taken the initiative to cling to those big sects out of consideration for the interests of the loose cultivators. We are ashamed to say that we still have not made substantial progress on the so-called cooperation. And the exchange is just like the Seven Stars faction occasionally visiting the service department. ”
"Still. When the manager said this, his face was excited, and he said firmly, "We will always try to find a way to cooperate." Today, the Deputy Head of the Seven Star Sect came to the test site in person, which means that our casual cultivators here have begun to attract their attention. This is undoubtedly a new opportunity. For this reason, the director hopes that you can make good use of this opportunity, and if you are fortunate enough to enter the various sects in the future, not only you are lucky, but our service department is also very honored. ”
