More than two months passed quietly.

On this day, the 'council hall' halfway up the mountain of the scorching sun peak was full of six incense masters, including the Wei incense master of Tianyang Yuan, the incense master of the torture hall, the incense master of the Dan hall, the incense master of the Faxun Hall, the incense master of the Shiyi Hall, and the incense master of the Jingshu Pavilion, as well as twenty or thirty deacons who were in the forefront of each hall.

Liang Feng sat on the main seat in the lobby and quietly listened to the introduction of the Tianyang Academy's apprenticeship ceremony by the master of the Faxun Hall.

"The Danbi ceremony of recruiting disciples this time is also divided into two sessions according to the convention, the first half is still the use of the big Dan furnace to try to refine the high-grade Pei Yuan Dan out of the Dan rate, this time the highest Dan rate is eighty into two, that is, a furnace full of 100 pills and finally refined 82 Cheng Dan, and the previous year's ceremony is not much different; the second half of the inspection of the understanding of alchemy, can test three furnaces of elixir, the full pill should be sixty elixir, the highest is refined out of thirty-one, and there is little difference from previous years. ......" Sheng Xiangzhu of the Fa Training Hall introduced it, and bowed to Liang Feng, and asked Liang Feng to hand him a scroll of silk books, and then said: "Senior Brother Zhangyuan, the list of Peiyuan period disciples to be recruited this time, relevant materials, and the relevant results of the disciples who passed the first half of the competition are all on this silk book, please look at it and confirm it!"

Liang Feng nodded and unfolded the silk book to browse.

After quickly browsing the silk book, he asked: "Hao Mou, Hao Mou 2, Hao Mou 3, Hao Mou 4, Hao Mou 5, these five disciples are all guests of Hao Zhengyi Deacon of the Criminal Hall, right?"

The Faxun Hall Sheng Yuandong Xiang Lord responded: "Yes!" and looked at a big man with a white face and horizontal eyebrows - that big man is Hao Zhengyi, he has the cultivation of the eight grades of Taoism, and he is the second deacon of the Torture Hall, and in the Tianyang Courtyard, his status is second only to the head of the courtyard, the master of the incense of the courtyard, and the master of the incense of the torture hall.

Hao Zhengyi stood up, bowed to Liang Feng and said, "Senior Brother in charge, according to the usual practice, a deacon like Hao can only introduce one family child per ceremony. However, there are exceptions to everything: Hao's third uncle Hao Tiansheng is the elder of the Jindan Wupin of the Dongqimen Gate Guard Camp, Hao's eldest brother Hao Zhengqi is the head of Youyuan Academy, and Hao's family is huge, with thousands of people, if only one family child can be introduced every five years, my Hao family's children will not be able to become Tianyang Academy disciples when they die in the countryside, isn't this fair?"

Liang Feng replied with a faint smile on his face: "It's not going to die of old age in the countryside, right?" Deacon Hao, you see, there are still Hao Mou 6 to Hao 13 in the list of disciples to be recruited, and these seven disciples are also the children of your Hao family, right? Your Hao family is full of talents!"

"Hey, hey, please understand one or two from the senior brother of the Academy. Hao's family is huge, there are more than one generation after another, and there are always some outstanding children. Hao Zhengyi laughed dryly and continued: "In the last apprenticeship ceremony, in the last session, more than a dozen children of our Hao family joined Tianyang Academy. ...... Oh, at that time, you didn't come yet, you were the former senior brother of the Yan family. ”

"Hey, hey, Senior Brother Yan Hongzhong is now the head of Huashan Academy, Senior Brother Hao, you can send all the outstanding children of your family to Huashan Academy as apprentices, presumably Senior Brother Yan Hongzhong must be very happy. Liang Feng answered, and stroked a few strokes on the silk book.

"It's funny, Senior Brother in charge of the courtyard is laughing!" Hao Zhengyi replied with a dry smile.

Liang Feng ignored it, turned his head slightly and asked, "Master Chen Xiang, how many disciples have you introduced? How many disciples have been selected by your Chen family this time?"

A middle-aged monk with a warm smile on his face stood up - he was Chen Renjian, the incense master of the torture hall who had entered the Nine Grades of the Dao, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhangyuan, my old Chen family's family is not small, so there are also seven children selected this time—but I only recommended three of Lao Chen, and the other four were selected through Danby." "According to the custom, each incense master has the right to introduce three disciples without examination.

"These two He Moumou and Zeng Moumou, were you introduced by Lord Chen Xiang?" Liang Feng flicked the silk book and asked softly.

“...... Alas, Lao Chen, I'm really forgetful, so ...... Those two were indeed recommended by Lao Chen, but this is the quota of the last session, and I only recommended one disciple of Lao Chen in that session, so there are still two places left. ”

Liang Feng smiled and said, "Lord Chen Xiang is really honest and honest, and he doesn't have many referral places!"

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm smiling, I'm smiling. Chen Renjian responded.

After marking the silk book again, Liang Feng continued to ask, "Master Zhang Xiang, how many disciples have you introduced, and how many disciples have been selected in your Zhang family......?"

After asking nearly half of the incense masters and deacons in a row, Liang Feng returned the revised list of disciples to the incense master of the Dharma Training Hall, and said, "Just follow the list circled above." ”

"Okay, Senior Brother of the Academy. Will you announce it internally now?" The Sheng Xiang Master of the Law Training Hall took the silk book, opened it and read it, and looked at Liang Feng with a solemn expression. After getting Liang Feng's confirmation, he walked out of his position, took the silk book and walked to the bulletin board behind Liang Feng - the council hall was silent, and all the incense masters and deacons were watching the movements of the incense master of the Dharma Training Hall.

After the silk book was pasted and everyone saw the final list of apprentices this time, there was a 'coax', and the council hall suddenly turned into a market, and there was a lot of discussion.

↓ After a moment, the discussion became quieter. Hao Zhengyi, the second deacon of the torture hall, turned red, his eyes flashed, and he stood up and asked loudly: "Dongfang Zhangyuan! Why did thirteen of my Hao family's children originally be selected, but now there are only two left? Why? Could it be that Dongfang Zhangyuan thinks that our Hao family is easy to bully, so they wantonly bully?" and turned to the deacon of the incense lord and said: "All the senior brothers are commenting on the reasoning, Hao Mou is straightforward, so he said bluntly-what do you say about what the Dongfang Courtyard does? It's really unreasonable!"

Liang Feng patted the table lightly, and the hall suddenly fell silent again, and he said, "Deacon Hao, you originally only had one referral quota, but you recommended five for personal gain, and you shouldn't be punished?" In addition, how did the other eight disciples of your Hao family pass Danbi? Now dare to call for on-site alchemy?"

His gaze slowly swept over the deacons of the incense lord below, and finally stopped on Hao Zhengyi's face, and he continued: "Originally, this court wanted to save face for your Hao family, so it still kept two disciples, but now, it seems that your Hao family doesn't need this kindness from this courtyard - those two disciples are also crossed out." In addition, Hao Youde, the deacon of the City Yitang, bullied and dominated the market in Tianyang City seven days ago, and beat several alchemists in Yidanpu to one death and three serious injuries, Hao Yingzheng, how did you deal with it? Or have you not dealt with it yet?"

Hao Zhengyi is the second deacon of the torture hall, and he is also the patrol camp of Tianyang City - usually the oil and water in this city are very rich, and in a rich and prosperous city like Tianyang City, the patrol camp is even more abundant to describe the richness of oil and water with 'daily progress and gold'.

Hao Zhengyi's eyes flashed, and he said coldly: "Now it's about recruiting disciples! Dongfang Zhangyuan, you eat alone like this, all the senior brothers are not convinced! Isn't it, all the senior brothers?

“...... Yes, no, ah...... Huh?" the crowd muffled.

"Lord Chen Xiang, did you say that? Your Chen family used to be able to bring in nearly ten disciples every time the apprenticeship ceremony, but now, look at it, look at it, there are only two or three places on the list. Hao Zhengyi asked by naming Chen Xiangzhu of the Torture Hall.

"This ...... What's this...... , hey, hey, Senior Brother Hao, don't get excited, sit down and discuss slowly. ...... That one...... That one...... Hey, hey, it's really my old Chen who made a mistake this time, hey, hey, now my Chen family doesn't only have two or three places, there are still four......" The torture hall Chen Ren Jianxiang said a few embarrassed laughs, and then continued.

Hao Youyi glanced at Chen Xiangzhu coldly and scolded in a low voice: "Eggless guy!" The voice was low enough for everyone to hear. He also named Zhang Xiang of Dantang and said: "Zhang Xiang, you said that the Oriental Palm Court acted like this, are you convinced?"

“...... This...... This one...... This ......" Dantang Zhang Xiang snorted twice, stood up and said to Liang Feng: "Palm...... Senior Brother in charge, that ...... That one...... Can you cut that list a little harder? Add one or two more places to each of us, okay?...... Of course, of course, my Zhang family should not add ......"

Liang Feng nodded and said, "Well, it seems that Master Zhang Xiang is also dissatisfied with this hospital. Okay, if anyone else is not convinced, stand up and say. ”

"No, no, Senior Brother Zhang, how dare I disagree with the Leader? It's just ...... It's just ......" Zhang Xiang shook his hand like a windmill.

"It's just oral, not convinced?"

"No, no, it's not that it's just that Lao Zhang thinks it...... I feel that more things are better than less things, and everyone can get by. Saying that, Zhang Xiangzhu took out a Fang Juan and wiped the Han traces on the sideburns on his head.

Liang Feng nodded slightly, his eyes swept around again, and asked lightly: "Who else is not convinced, stand up!"

The hall was quiet, and all the deacons of the incense lord were all in their hearts, except for Hao Zhengyi, the second deacon of the Criminal Department.

"You ...... You guys are all eggless guys!" Hao Zhengyi scolded angrily and hurried out of the hall.

"Slow!" Liang Feng shouted: "The matter of accepting apprentices is over, now let's talk about Hao Youde's indiscriminate killing of innocents." Hao Yingzheng, have you dealt with that matter, how did you deal with it?"

Hao Zhengyi paused and shouted: "Dongfang Zhangyuan, don't deceive people too much! How can Hao remember all the trivial things in his heart?"

"Oh, this is a trivial matter? It seems that Hao Yingzheng just disdains to deal with such trivial matters, so this court will deal with it-Master Chen Xiang, you immediately go to the City Yitang and arrest Hao Youde!" and said to Hao Zhengyi: "Hao Yingzheng, don't you ventilate the news, otherwise...... At that time, don't blame the hospital for not warning us in advance. ”

"It's too much to deceive! It's too much to deceive!" Hao Zhengyi touched his hand in the storage bag, muttered in his mouth, walked a few steps back and forth, and then walked back to his place and sat down.

Chen Xiangzhu of the torture hall glanced at Hao Zhengyi, muttered, and responded, "Okay!" He went out and flew away. 14
