Chapter 121: Belonging
"The old man is a representative of a thousand swords, and he is interested in kendo and stands in front of me," a red-robed man with thick eyebrows and big eyes said loudly as he walked down the cyan stone staircase.
Hearing this, many people immediately stood in front of the red-robed man, and even the head of the family came from this vein, which shows the strength of this vein.
There was a long queue of people standing in front of the red-robed man, there were more than a hundred people, judging from the family emblems on their clothes, most of them were from various immortal cultivation clans.
"I'm a representative of the Hundred Refining Bloodline, and those who like refining weapons stand in front of me," a middle-aged woman in a green palace dress took two steps down and said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen people stood in front of the middle-aged woman, and the number was still increasing, there were as many as eighty or ninety people.
Wang Changsheng found that half of the middle-aged woman standing in front of her was wearing a magic robe, and the storage bag around her waist was even more bulging, and she knew that it contained a lot of things at a glance.
Immediately afterwards, a young man with crane hair and a ruddy face in purple robe swept his gaze over everyone, and said: "If you feel that you have a formation talent, stand in front of this seat, and declare in advance that if you have a formation talent, this seat must spend a lot of effort to cultivate, if you are indiscriminate, this seat will not mind letting him chop wood and farm every day." ”
Hearing the words of the purple-robed old man, some people who wanted to stand in front of him withdrew their feet again, and in the end, only more than thirty people stood in front of the purple-robed old man.
The purple-robed old man didn't care about the number of people, and when he saw that there were only more than thirty people, he nodded.
"If you are bold and like to be in the company of spirit beasts, stand in front of me and be faster," said a burly, bald man in a somewhat impatient tone.
Hearing this, dozens of people immediately stood in front of the bald man, most of these people had spirit beast bags hanging around their waists, and there were faint living creatures agitating inside.
"If you want to learn the art of alchemy, you can stand in front of me and remind me that it is not recommended to learn the art of alchemy if you are not wealthy," a round-faced man with a fair face said lightly.
Although the round-faced man reminded him, the people standing in front of him still lined up in a long line, and the number of people was not under the pulse of a thousand swords.
In this regard, the round-faced man only frowned slightly and did not say anything more.
"Needless to say, if there is no better choice, just stand in front of me!" a green-robed Taoist priest said, glancing at the rest of the crowd.
Hearing this, Wang Changsheng followed behind Xu Yi and stood in front of the green-robed Taoist priest.
Of the six teams, the team of the first line of the Divine Pill is the longest, the team of the first line of the Heavenly Array is the shortest, and the team of the first line of the Xuanfu is the poorest and sour, even so, there are still dozens of people who are hesitating, not knowing how to choose.
Seeing this, Mo Wentian raised his eyebrows and said, "There is still half an hour to go, if you don't choose any of the six veins, you will be deemed to have voluntarily withdrawn from this sect." ”
Hearing this, the remaining dozens of people also made a choice, and most of them joined the team of the Xuanfu lineage.
Wang Changsheng was not surprised by this, judging from the clothes of these people and the storage bags on their waists, they should be loose cultivators, and these scattered cultivators can also see that the Xuanfu line is a place where the children of the small family gather together, compared to the team where the children of the big families gather, the former is more suitable for their development! After all, the gap between them and the children of the small family is not particularly large, and it is relatively easy to catch up.
"Since you have all made your choice, then stand honestly in the branch team you have chosen, and come with me to the ancestral hall to worship the ancestral master," After speaking, Mo Wentian turned around and walked towards the palace above the stone stairs.
The representative of the six veins also turned around and followed.
Six teams, following the representatives of their branches, walked up.
Wang Changsheng also followed the team and walked up the cyan stone staircase.
The cyan stone staircase is very long, each stone staircase is more than a meter wide, Wang Changsheng took two steps to step up the other stone staircase, and the others were similar, each team moved very slowly, but always followed behind the representative of the branch vein.
Half an hour later, Wang Changsheng, whose legs were sore, walked to a platform more than ten zhang wide, a palace more than ten zhang high stood in front of everyone, and several disciples of Taiqing Palace stood at the gate of the palace, exuding strong mana fluctuations on their bodies.
On the right side of the platform, there is a tall stone pavilion with a cyan bronze bell more than two feet high, and a lifelike dragon is carved on it.
Walking into the palace, a wide hall more than ten zhang high and a hundred acres in size appeared in front of everyone.
Hundreds of rosewood chairs were neatly placed on both sides of the hall, and on the wall at the end hung a huge portrait several feet long.
The portrait shows a middle-aged man dressed as a Taoist priest, wearing a white Taoist robe, with a white face and no beard, carrying an unsheathed long sword behind his back, and stepping on a giant bird with three heads at his feet.
Below the portrait, there is a bluestone offering table more than ten zhang long, there is a lit ever-bright lamp at the left and right ends, and in the middle is a row of silver jade plates, there are hundreds, the jade cards are written on them one by one, and there is a spiritual light on the surface of the text, these jade cards are all magic weapons.
There is also a huge bronze beast head incense burner in front of the bluestone offering table, and several purple incense candles the thickness of a baby's arm are inserted straight into the incense burner, giving people a solemn and serious feeling.
The representative of the six veins stopped more than ten meters away from the offering table, and Wang Changsheng and the others also stopped.
Mo Wentian walked to the offering table, picked up a purple incense candle and lit it, and inserted it in the incense burner, before turning around.
"The person in this portrait is the patriarch of the sect "Taiqing Halal Jun", and the tablet on the table is the Yuanying monks of the sect in the past dynasties, if it were not for their protection, the sect would not be able to continue to this day, and now the representatives of the six veins stepped forward to offer incense to the ancestor and the ancestors in the sect, and then worship the ancestor together," Mo Wentian said with a solemn expression.
As soon as the words fell, the representatives of the six veins stepped forward one after another, picked up an incense candle, lit it, inserted it into the incense burner, and then returned to their original positions.
Seeing this, Mo Wentian nodded, turned around and bowed to the portrait on the wall, and said loudly: "Mo Wentian, the head of the two hundred and fifty-third generation of Taiqing Palace, brought many new disciples to meet Master Zu today. ”
"Meet Master Zu," the representatives of the six veins also spoke.
Wang Changsheng and the others did the same, bent down and bowed their heads, and said loudly in unison: "Meet the Ancestral Master," the voices of hundreds of people echoed in the hall, and even the disciples guarding outside the Ancestral Hall heard it.
After worshipping Master Zu, Mo Wentian turned around again and said with a straight face:
"This sect has a total of nine precepts, one hundred and eight door rules, violating one of them, at least facing the wall for ten years, or at worst abolishing mana, locked up in the Demon Sealing Tower, and subjected to the punishment of thunder and fire, and the specific content of these precepts and rules, your branch will send someone to tell you carefully, you must be honest and careful, and do not do anything that insults the door style. ”
"Yes," Wang Changsheng and the other new disciples responded in unison.
"After worshipping the ancestral master, the representatives of each vein will take their disciples back to their peaks, and you can do the rest of the process yourself. ”
Next, the representatives of the six veins left the Patriarch Hall with their disciples one after another and returned to their respective peaks.
Wang Changsheng and the others followed behind the green-robed Taoist priest, sat on top of a huge paper crane, and flew away in a certain direction.
The paper crane flew into the air, and Wang Changsheng discovered that the peak where the ancestral hall was located was a huge stone pillar more than 100 zhang high, and the bottom of the stone pillar was entangled by clouds and mist, and it was not clear to see the situation below.
Along the way, there are groups of Taiqing Palace disciples flying over, a five-colored spirit bird flying and hovering in the sky, and there are towering giant peaks, on which there is a large piece of palace pavilions with carved railings and jade, dense figures like ants shuttling in it, exuding a vigorous vitality.
Around these peaks, an endless river hangs horizontally from the ground, and the giant peaks on both sides of the river are connected by colorful arch bridges on which there are faint figures walking.
Witnessing this scene, the new disciples on the paper crane were stunned one by one, Wang Changsheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his heart was excited, in the future, he would be one of them.
After the small half-pillar of incense, the paper crane slowly landed on a square paved with white jade, and in the square, there were already more than a dozen Xuanfu disciples in green robes waiting.
The leader is an elegant young man with good facial features and a wooden hairpin several inches long on his head.
Seeing the green-robed Taoist priest and Wang Changsheng and the others, the elegant young man's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him: "Apprentice greetings master, everything in the palace of the heart is ready, just wait for your teachers and nephews." ”
"This is your Uncle Wu Cheng, and all the chores of our Xuanfu lineage are entrusted to him to take care of," the green-robed Taoist priest nodded, pointing to the elegant young man and introduced.
"Ladies and nephews, if you encounter any problems in the future, you can go to the Deacon Tower to find me," Wu Cheng said with a smile.
Wang Changsheng and the others did not dare to slack off, and bowed in return.
"Okay, you can take them in! If there is no problem, take them to the deacon's tower to get the entry items! Arrange a place for them to live again, and tell them the rules of the precepts," the green-robed Taoist priest commanded the elegant young man, and the person stomped his feet, turned into a long green rainbow, and disappeared into the sky.
Seeing this scene, Wang Changsheng and the others were surprised again.
