Chapter 4: The Thunder Faction
Seven days later, the dusty Ni Xin appeared in front of the mountain gate of the Canglei Sect.
Looking at the crowded team in front of him, Ni Xin was a little speechless, he was afraid that he would miss the entrance assessment, but he didn't expect that a month had passed, and it was still such a grand occasion.
Ni Xin consciously lined up at the end of the long line, looking at everything around him with interest.
Soon Ni Xin was a little embarrassed, surrounded by seven or eight year-old children, and even younger five or six-year-old children, there was really no one as big as Ni Xin, and he was really a little nondescript in the team, no wonder Ke'er's senior sister was reluctant to ask him.
Many people around also looked at Ni Xin curiously, mainly because Ni Xin was in rags, but they all lost interest after looking at him twice, and continued with the things in his hands.
Just when Ni Xin was embarrassed, someone slapped him from behind, Ni Xin turned around with some doubts, and saw a man with a trench appearance standing behind him.
The man was about forty years old, dressed in silk and satin, and wore a golden ring on his hand, round and chubby, and his eyes narrowed into a small slit when he smiled, like a ball containing his hands and feet.
The fat man saw Ni Xin turn his head, and his round face was full of smiles:
"In Xia Song Deyuan, he is from Ningluo Town, and the little brother is here to participate in the selection?"
Ni Xin looked at the fat man in front of him with an unkind face, and said in his heart, "I said that I came to see the excitement, do you believe it" At the same time, he made up his mind, no matter what the fat man said, he didn't like to talk to strangers now, and he was a little tired of someone patting him on the shoulder, and now this person has done both things, but this person looks like a sea of people, Ni Xin expects that the other party will not dare to do anything.
Song Deyuan saw Ni Xin turn around, as if he didn't see Ni Xin's wrinkled pimples, rubbed his hands with a bright smile, and then pushed the little fat man next to him in front of him:
"This is the dog Song Chenglong, this kid is a little honest, I'm afraid of being bullied by others on the mountain, thinking that if the little brother can pass the selection, I hope the little brother will help one or two. ”
Ni Xin wanted to refuse, first, he was not sure that he would pass the selection, second, he was not sure that the little fat man could pass the selection, and the most important thing was that he didn't like the fat man in front of him, and more importantly, why.
At this point, Song Deyuan nodded with a clear smile on his face, then reached into his sleeve and took out a silver ticket and handed it to Ni Xin, saying, "Be careful, don't be grateful." ”
After speaking, he squinted his eyes and waited for Ni Xin's reply with a smile on his face.
Ni Xin wanted to refuse, but when he saw the two big characters "fifty" written clearly on the silver ticket, he took it with both hands. Under Song Deyuan's eager gaze, he cherished it and put it into his arms.
Then he coughed dryly and nodded in agreement.
Song Deyuan saw Ni Xin agree, the smile on his face was even stronger, looking at the smile on his face, Ni Xin couldn't help but regret a little, how could these hands be so useless, and he couldn't stop stretching forward.
When Ni Xin blamed his hands, Song Deyuan left with a smile and a fist, walked next to a slightly older child, and repeated the same words.
The corners of Ni Xin's eyes twitched unconsciously, this guy is really good, his feelings are not about his talent, but about casting a wide net, but he is really rich, this time, how much silver will he get, if he really passes the selection, he must be close to the little fat man, not because his father is rich, but mainly because he has eyes, round and chubby, so cute.
At the very front of the line, a table was set up, and a middle-aged man sat at the table.
There was a dilapidated lamp on the table, and everyone who tested it only needed to put their hands in the flame to test their talent according to the degree of change in the flame, the more vigorous the flame burned, the higher the flame, the better the talent.
When the sun was about to set, it was finally Ni Xin, and the middle-aged man sitting at the table glanced at Ni Xin without raising his head, and said as usual:
"Name, age, where you live. ”
"Ni Xin, age thirteen, lives in Xiangyang County. ”
The middle-aged man raised his head and glanced at Fang Zheng curiously, "At such an age, I have missed the best opportunity to cultivate, even if I get started, I am afraid that there will be no elders under the door, so put your hand on the sky lantern." ”
The sky lantern is the broken ancient lamp.
Ni Xin slowly put his hand on the top of the sky lantern, and the sky light suddenly burst into flames, almost burning his hand, and the flames surpassed all the children Ni Xin had seen.
The middle-aged man looked at Ni Xin with a dull expression, and then said to the young man on the side with an eager face:
"The qualifications are superior, I'll go to the teacher's door, and you go back with the children who have passed first. ”
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he shouted at the crowd behind: "Today is over, let's not be lined up tomorrow",
After speaking, he took out his saber and recited a mantra, only to see the saber in his hand standing horizontally in the air, and the middle-aged man jumped on the flying sword and flew towards the mountains of the Canglei Sect.
Ni Xin looked at the middle-aged man with some envy, this kind of ability to fly to the sky and the earth is afraid that he is a real immortal.
After the middle-aged man flew away, the children who passed the test were excited, after all, being able to join the Canglei Sect itself was an exciting thing, if it was mixed well, it would be even more glorious, but because of Ni Xin, many people were not so happy.
The children who passed the test all stood in one place, and after the middle-aged man flew away, the young disciple standing next to the middle-aged man waved at everyone after cleaning up the table, signaling everyone to follow.
Ni Xin still followed the end of the team, slowly walking in the direction of the Canglei faction, while looking around with some curiosity, the surrounding lush trees stood at both ends of the road of Ni Xin and his party, the green and wide leaves seemed to tell everyone that it was extraordinary, a few children came up to talk halfway, Ni Xin said a few words politely, and no longer spoke, because of some autism, he was not very good at communicating with strangers.
Ni Xin heard a lot of rumors about the Canglei Sect on the way here, Xiangyang County was too far away from the Canglei Sect, and no one knew anything about the Canglei Sect.
The Canglei faction stands on the Canglei Mountain, it is rumored that there is an evil demon living on the Canglei Mountain very early, the devil does a lot of evil, and has to feed on boys and girls every day, the surrounding residents are miserable, and many people move away from the Canglei Mountain.
But it didn't take long for the heavens to feel that the devil was doing a lot of evil, and the rolling thunder fell, and the thunder hid the sky and the sun, and split the thunder mountain for three days and three nights.
Later, it was the patriarch of the Canglei Sect who appeared on Canglei Mountain and established the Canglei Sect.
Many people say that it was actually the ancestor of the Canglei Sect who killed the demon, but this matter has not been confirmed.
After walking for about half an hour, the group finally saw the location of the Canglei Sect.
Among the towering peaks, there are endless rows of houses arranged in a regular manner, but because they are still far away and there are clouds and mist, it is not really visible.
At the door, three young people waited here, and when they saw everyone arriving, the disciple who led the team explained a few words to the young man led by the three and then turned to leave, and at the same time pointed in the direction of Ni Xin, the young man at the head nodded and said loudly:
"The master stipulates that all disciples who pass the entrance test must serve miscellaneous labor for three months, and after three months, there will be an entry test, and those who pass can become registered disciples, my name is Xun (xu
Sheng, you can call me Senior Brother Xun, and I will be in charge of you for the next three months. ”
"Because the sect test has not yet ended, I will arrange for you to live first, and when all of them are over, we will arrange positions for you, and if anyone wants any position during this period, they can tell me. ”
He twisted his fingers as he said this, and the implication could not be more obvious.
Xun Sheng arranged everyone's accommodation one by one, and Ni Xin finally arranged it with Song Chenglong.
It is worth mentioning that Xun Sheng, who has always had a black face, was very polite to Ni Xin and the little fat man, and when they were separated, he also took Ni Xin's hand and said earnestly:
"Ni Xin, if you have any needs, tell the senior brother, and the senior brother will definitely do it for you. ”
Ni Xin looked at the small courtyard in front of him, and looked at the little fat man with a strange face, everyone else was a room for five people, a room for eight people, and only two of them didn't say anything, and a small courtyard was also included.
The little fat man blushed a little at Ni Xin's burning eyes, and walked towards the courtyard with his head down.
Entering the room, Ni Xin diligently helped the little fat man lay out the futon, he didn't have any consciousness at all, how could he please his rich man, phew, make friends, no matter how good the talent is, it will be a matter of the future, and now it is more important to have the matter in front of him.
Ni Xin also noticed that the little fat man was a superior qualification when he took the entrance test.
That night, after the little fat man went out secretly, when he came back, he was very sensible and filled Ni Xin's empty wine pot with wine.
Every evening, new people who have passed the examination will arrive, but no one has joined in their small courtyard.
didn't give Xun Sheng a time, arranged tasks for everyone, and at the same time gave everyone a booklet, which explained some of the origin of the Canglei Sect and the surrounding things, etc.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to kindly ask Ni Xin if he lived well and whether he was used to eating or not, and then patted his chest and assured Ni Xin that if there was any problem, he would definitely be able to deal with Ni Xin properly.
