The First Journey to Immortality Volume 1 The First Journey to Immortality Chapter 6: Measuring Capital (2)
Kindness flashed in his face, Elder Lin nodded slightly, then looked ahead, and controlled the giant scorpion to lead everyone straight to the sky.
As soon as the giant scorpion moved, the wind blew head-on again, and the whirring sound was endless, making everyone take out their long swords in front of them, with various colors of red, blue, yellow and purple, which dazzled Lian Tuo who was in it for a while.
Out of the Lingyi Sect, the giant scorpion flew in a straight line to the east in mid-air, and the thousand rocks passed along the way.
From time to time, you can see that there are villages that are being swept by at great speed, and if you look closely, you can see that many of the villagers in the villages are frightened when they see the giant scorpion flying overhead, and they do not dare to move in the slightest.
Only a few places seemed to be no strangers to the immortals, and they took incense from the house, and kept burning incense and bowing to the giant scorpion that was far away, and there were words in their mouths, as if they were praying.
A hundred miles away from Lingyi Sect, there is a dense village area, and there are nearly a hundred villages in the area, which are close to each other, and the distance between them is not far away.
Looking down from the sky, countless thatched huts come into view, and you can faintly see the crowds walking back and forth, and the lively noise can be heard far away.
After half an hour of flight, the giant scorpion stopped in the center of the village and slowly landed in one of the villages. In the village, those villagers had already discovered the giant scorpion and the crowd.
At this time, they were gathered in a clearing, and some of the women and children among them looked at such a huge giant scorpion, and they couldn't stop trembling.
Lian Tuo and the others walked slowly with Elder Lin when the giant scorpion fell, stopping not far from the villagers.
"You don't have to panic, we are immortal cultivators, now the sect is open to accept disciples, here just to find young girls who have the spiritual resources of cultivating immortals, if the children and girls of that family are tested to have spiritual resources, they can enter my immortal sect, and we are the people of the immortal sect together, and the cultivation avenue. ”
Looking at the villagers gathered together, Elder Lin, who was standing in front of everyone, explained softly with kindness on his face.
"It turned out that the immortal came, and we waited for the eyes to be unbeaded, and I still hope that the immortal will forgive my sins!"
The villagers looked at him in silence until a moment before an old voice accompanied by a cough suddenly came from behind them.
It was an octogenarian who spoke, and I saw him lying on his back, his face was full of wrinkles, and a pair of calloused old hands were on wooden crutches, and his steps were difficult, and he was being helped out of the crowd.
"Rest assured, children, it is your blessing if you can let the immortals measure the spiritual resources. ”
Coughing a few more times, the old man beckoned to the villagers behind him, his tone full of kindness.
It seemed that he had great respect for the old man, and although the villagers were afraid when they heard him say this, they still followed his words, trembling and letting their children walk towards Elder Lin and the others.
The population of the village is already small, and there are only about a dozen young men and women in the 20-odd households.
After all of them walked out, Elder Lin took off a black sack from his waist without thinking, and in the pinching of his hands, more than a dozen bead-shaped white stone beads flew out of it, slowly hovering in the low air.
Looking at the people behind him, Elder Lin thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice: "Zhu Lang, Chang Yu, Bai Xie, Yan Xuan, you and the other four people each take five stone beads and divide them into four teams to go to other villages to carry out surveys, remember, this bead is divided into three colors, cyan represents average qualifications, blue is medium qualifications, and purple means good qualifications.
To use this bead, you need to inject aura in advance, and then press it directly on the celestial spirit of the person who needs to be tested.
This test lasts for three days, if you test the nearby villages one by one in advance, you can first bring back with spiritual resources to gather here, you wait to go back quickly!"
As soon as the words fell, the disciples behind Elder Lin suddenly consciously divided into three teams, and after taking the stone beads, they each branched out towards the southeast and west.
The disciples who came with the Lingyi Sect, only three of them were still in place at the moment, obviously wanting to join Yan Xuan Lian Tuo's team.
stepped forward to take the stone beads, Yan Xuan looked at the people who were leaving, and hurriedly took out a long sword from the storage bag.
Under the words in her mouth, the long sword changed in an instant, and instantly turned into a three-zhang giant sword, and then with a finger, the giant sword slowly fell to the ground.
At this time, the other three also had long swords in front of them.
"Haven't come up yet, wait for me to invite you. ”
As soon as his body moved, Yan Xuan stepped on top of the giant sword and scolded Lian Tuojiao towards the ground.
You can also.
With an embarrassed smile, Lian Tuo hurriedly stepped towards the sword.
Xu knew that he was not yet used to flying, and Yan Xuan did not fly too high when he controlled the giant sword, but only kept it at a low altitude of more than ten zhang above the ground.
The three disciples of the Lingyi Sect followed not far behind the two of them, and the four Changhongs maintained a speed that was not much different, and slowly flew towards the northern sky.
The nearby villages were not too far apart, and the five people flying slowly at low altitude walked all the way in a straight line to the north, and soon another small village was in sight.
In that village, the villagers gathered curiously, and the faces of the five people flying low in the sky were not afraid, but they only looked a little surprised.
As soon as the figure landed, Yan Xuan, who was the leader, said politely: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, I and other Immortal Sect members came here today to find young girls with spiritual cultivation, and I hope to cooperate." ”
"Immortals! It turns out that there really are immortals in the world, and the records left by the ancestors are actually true!"
In the crowd, a scholar-like man with thin and clear eyebrows seemed to think of something, and his face was incredulous.
As he was speaking, the man suddenly knelt down towards Yan Xuan and the others, and at the same time said with respect and awe: "Our ancestors have a few legends and records, saying that there are immortals in this world, who can fly to the sky and escape to the earth, and if they are angry, they can collapse and crack, and in the records, there were immortals who came here to recruit disciples hundreds of years ago. ”
The man who looked like a scholar was one of the few scribes in the village who had participated in the imperial examination, and he read poetry and books, and naturally kept in mind the legends and records passed down by his ancestors.
At this time, I saw Yan Xuan and the others claiming to be from the Immortal Sect, although they were young people, but the man also clearly remembered that the books of the ancients that recorded immortals clearly indicated that people who cultivated immortals could maintain their appearance for eternity, and although they looked young, they might have survived for hundreds of years.
In just a moment, under the words of the scribe man, the villagers behind him slowly relaxed their hearts, and each walked to Yan Xuan and the others with their children in awe.
The number of people in the village is small, with only eight young girls. According to the instructions given by Elder Lin, Yan Xuan slowly stepped forward to launch a spiritual qualification test for these people.
I saw her pinching the stone bead with both hands, and the aura emerged in her hand, just a little, and the stone bead in front of her slowly moved on its own.
After some testing, three of the eight people actually had cultivation spiritual resources. Among the three, there are two men and one woman, the woman has white teeth and red lips, and her hair is left, and she is very good-looking, and her qualifications are even more moderate.
As for the other two, a little fat man with a fat stomach and a fat brain, and a young man with a tiger brain, both of them have ordinary qualifications.
After being explained by the scribe man, the villagers seemed to be full of respect for the immortals, and the parents of the three who had been tested to have spiritual cultivation were even more full of pride in their admiration, and after some instructions, they let the three of them be sent back to Elder Lin with one of the men among Lian Tuo and the others.
The remaining four Lian Tuo continued to fly to the next village.
From beginning to end, Lian Tuo was silent, occasionally thinking about the fusion of aura in his body, and safely carried out this boring process of capital measurement with everyone.
As the day passed quickly, the night gradually covered the land, and the mortals in the village seemed to have a habit of resting early after a busy day.
Because of the fall of night, everyone did not bother anymore, and finally at the warm invitation of a villager named Yuanli Village, the five decided to spend the night in the house arranged by the villagers, waiting for the dawn before continuing the search.
In the house, Lian Tuo sat quietly, looking at the thick aura formed by the fusion of more than thirty channels in his body, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
When he searched all the way today, he found that the aura of Yan Xuan and the others was all filamentous, and the fused aura in his body was far several times larger than theirs.
When the aura first began to mutate and merge, he originally wanted to ask Yu Yan Xuan, but then he forgot about it, and now that he remembered it again, Lian Tuo no longer planned to tell her about it.
In his dark sense, it seemed that the mutation and fusion of this aura would be of great benefit to his future cultivation, and if he told others about this, he might bring great disaster to himself.
Putting away these thoughts, he calmed down and slowly sank into his cultivation.
Early the next morning, the five of them left Yuanli Village early. Outside, the sun had not yet risen, and the ground was shrouded in a thick morning mist, because the line of sight could not penetrate too far, and the speed of the crowd's flight was greatly slowed.
"Senior sister, what kind of cultivation do you have to achieve in order to fly like you. Taking advantage of this boring time, Lian Tuo asked suspiciously.
"When you have cultivated to the third layer of condensation, the aura in your body will be enough to support you, but you haven't reached the spirit gathering period now, so you don't have to think about it for the time being. ”
Yan Xuan controlled the giant sword to fly while explaining to him behind him.
After pondering for a moment, Lian Tuo nodded and looked aside.
Unconsciously, most of the fog in the sky and earth had dissipated, and with the visibility of the distant sight, everyone slowly increased their flight speed.
