Chapter 187 Encountering "Old Knowledge" in a Foreign Land
"Oh, I see. The Dan Realm real person nodded, showing a smile that was not beaten, and said, "I thought that Wang Zhenren was because he lost too badly last year, so he deliberately found a few more people this year, planning to plant a lot and harvest a lot." ”
"Hehe, Luo Zhenren is too worried. Wang Qin also looked at the Danjing real person with a smile, "We have always preferred to lack rather than indiscriminate when we accept people, and we will never accept any cat or dog." It's Luo Zhenren, if I'm not mistaken, a few years ago, Luo Zhenren recommended a total of six newcomers, and it seems that only one passed the selection competition, and it was only barely rated as a 'martial arts' level, right?"
"You ......" Luo Zhenren was angry with Wang Qin, but then showed that underwhelming smile again, "Even so, there is at least one more in this seat." It's you, Wang Zhenren, who recommended three newcomers last year, but none of them were spared, and all of them were defeated. I don't know how many of the four recommended by Wang Zhenren this year will be defeated?"
When Na Luo Zhenren spoke to Wang Qin, the smile on his face was really underwhelming, and when combined with his appearance of a fairy spirit, it was like a liar that He Zhi had seen on the stall in his previous life.
Moreover, this Luo Zhenren's yin and yang weird eyes are really unbearable.
"We don't have to worry about it. Ying Wu directly said to that Luo Zhenren with a cold face, neither soft nor hard.
"Oh, isn't this the nephew of the Ying Dance Master?" Luo Zhenren glanced at Ying Wu, and after saying a word without smiling, his face suddenly turned cold, "When do I talk to your family, when will you interject?"
"The younger generation of my family, I have my own to discipline you, and it's not your turn to talk too much! Luo Zhenren, you still have to take care of your own apprentices and grandchildren!" Wang Qin naturally wouldn't sit idly by and watch Ying Wu suffer, and immediately pushed back Luo Zhenren's words with a cold face.
"Hmph, good, good! In the selection battle, I'll see if the ability of the dancer's nephew is as good as his mouth. Luo Zhenren sneered and nodded again and again, and left with the three monks beside him.
"Hmph!" Wang Qin looked at Luo Zhenren's back and snorted coldly, turned his head to Ying Wu and said, "You heard Luo Zhenren's words just now, right? ”
"Got it!" Ying Wu and Luo Sanlang hurriedly promised Wang Qin.
On the other side, He Zhi didn't speak. The main reason is that Wang Qin had already told He Zhi that the situation between him and the three of them was different.
From the beginning, when Wang Qin invited He Zhi, what he gave him was a "special invitation".
According to Shueisha's rules, each examiner in charge of examining newcomers has a "special invitation" quota. Monks who receive this quota can directly become full members of Shueisha without going through the examination.
In other words, the selection battle that Ying Wu and the other three had to participate in was not He Zhi's thing.
He Zhi also knows his identity as a little shrimp, so the open and secret battle between the two real people, He Zhi has no intention of getting involved. Following Wang Qin honestly, He Zhi quickly completed all the procedures for joining Shueisha and became one of the members of Shueisha.
After He Zhi completed the formalities, it was already night again.
The group rested for the night and went up again the next day.
On the top of the hill there is a very majestic palace. When He Zhi and his party reached the top of the mountain, many people had gathered inside and outside the palace.
He Zhi looked around and saw that there were almost two or three hundred monks gathered on the top of the mountain. The style of clothing worn by these monks varied greatly, and it was clear that they were not all Great Zhou people.
Moreover, these monks gathered in groups of east and west, but they were not distinguished by region.
He Zhi could clearly see that there were seven or eight monks who were also wearing the same "national costume" and clearly belonged to the same kind of "national costume", standing in three different small groups, two of which were quite hostile to each other.
It seems that as Wang Qin said, there are also many factions within Shueisha.
Sure enough, the ancient gods were right: where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
He Zhi sighed in his heart, and followed Wang Qin towards one of the groups.
The number of people in that group was not large, only six or seven people combined. Two of the monks looked older, and the other four or five were young people about the same age as He Zhi and Ying Wu.
"Oh! Wang Zhenren is here. Why did you come so late this time?" As soon as the two older monks saw Wang Qin, they greeted him very warmly.
Neither of them seemed to have reached the Dan realm, so it was the etiquette of the younger generation to Wang Qin.
"On the way this time, I met Luo Xiu. When Luo Zhenren's name was mentioned, Wang Qin still looked annoyed.
"Ah, Luo Zhenren?" the two older monks looked at each other, but neither spoke.
"Hmph, you guys, what's going on all these years? Haven't I just been in retreat for three years? How did you become like this?"
"Alas...... Wang Zhenren, you don't know anything. Our fighting faction is already small in Shueisha. In this retreat, the big guys have lost their backbones. And those guys from the Cultivator faction don't deal with us. They are powerful, and every time they allocate some leftovers to our fighting faction. In the first two years, we followed your instructions and preferred shortage to excess, and only recommended one or two people every year. However, with only such a small number of people, it is natural that a little bad luck will not work during the selection competition. So, we have to relax the standards a little bit. But who knows, those guys from the Xiu faction are deliberately targeting us. Of the seven people we recommended last year, at least two of them were selected with strength. However, the guys of the Xiu faction played tricks and tricks when they were fighting, and deliberately made them face up to a few of the most powerful ones at the beginning. That's how it turned out......"
One of the older monks had a bitter face, a look of helplessness.
"Fortunately, Wang Zhenren, you are out of the customs this year. With you here, those guys from the Cultivator Sect don't dare to bully us anymore!" the other monk put on a smiling face and slapped Wang Qin's ass.
"Hmph! I told you a long time ago that even if our fighting faction has few people, we can't lower our standards. Wang Qin said as he spoke, his eyes swept over the few people beside the two older monks, "How many of them, is it okay?"
"No problem, no problem. They are all selected according to your requirements. The two elder monks immediately assured Wang Qin in unison.
"Hmm...... Then I'll believe you for a while. Wang Qin nodded, and pulled He Zhi out, "This time, there are a total of four candidates I recommend." However, this Mu Yunhai Mu Zhuang owner, I am ready to use the special recommended place. Therefore, he does not participate in the selection battle. ”
"Oh oh! Let Wang Zhenren use the specially recommended place, Master Mu Zhuang must be a good skill. "Although the two elder monks are each much higher than He Zhi in cultivation, they are both very flattering to He Zhi at this time.
On the one hand, the two of them are looking at Wang Qin's face. On the other hand, they also trust Wang Qin's vision.
In fact, their small group called the "Dou Pai" was originally formed by Wang Qin. These two monks also joined Shueisha on the recommendation of Wang Qin that year, so they naturally knew Wang Qin's personality well.
If it weren't for the truly talented and amazingly powerful monks, it would have been impossible for Wang Qin to use the "special recommendation"! You must know that it has been more than 20 years since the establishment of this small group, and Wang Qin has said for the first time that he wants to use this "special recommendation" quota!
In other words, the owner of Mu Yunhai Mu Zhuang in front of him must be a great person!
The two monks glanced at He Zhi carefully, and secretly made up their minds in their hearts that they must shoot He Zhi's sycophants well. Maybe in ten or twenty years, this will be the pillar of their "fighting faction". Now that the relationship is good, if there is a place to ask for someone else's head in the future, it is better to ask, right?
"Mu Daoyou, is it? Under the name Tang Renli. ”
"Under Chen Keying. ”
The two elder monks didn't dare to take it big in front of He Zhi, and they all introduced themselves to He Zhi with the courtesy of their peers.
"Hmm. It's good that you get to know each other. Mu Daoyou didn't know much about our Shueisha before. This time, I specially asked him to come and see it. In the past few days, you have taken him around the tryouts. Explain to him the situation of our Shueisha. Wang Qin explained to the two elder monks, then turned to He Zhi and said, "Mu Daoyou, there are still some things on my side, so you can follow the two of them around first." I'll come back to you in a few days when I'm done with what I'm doing. ”
"Wang Zhenren, please. He Zhi naturally wouldn't force Wang Qin to follow him all the time. Nodding his head in agreement, He Zhi saw that Wang Qin had explained a few more words to Tang Renli and Chen Keying, and then drifted away.
Sending Wang Qin away, He Zhi quickly made a bunch with Tang Renli and Chen Keying.
Tang Renli and Chen Keying are both "seniors" who have joined Shueisha for more than ten years, and they are both clear about everything in Shueisha.
These two people originally wanted to please He Zhi, so they knew everything about him by He Zhi's side, and soon explained all the situations in Shueisha to He Zhi.
First of all, what the two of them explained to He Zhi was naturally the problem of the "Fighting School" and "Cultivation School" they mentioned earlier.
Because Shueisha is an elite club-like loose cultivation alliance, it is also divided into many different factions within this alliance. Some of the loose cultivators who have a good relationship with each other unite to form a small group such as the "Dou School" or the "Cultivation School".
Of course, there are also differences between the strengths and weaknesses of these small groups. For example, the "Dou faction" established by Wang Qin can only be regarded as one of the smallest factions in Shueisha. And the "cultivation faction" to which Luo Zhenren belonged before was the largest faction in Shueisha.
Because of its large scale and large number of people, the Shueisha has always regarded itself as the "boss", and its attitude towards other groups is very arrogant.
Therefore, many small groups have been bullied by the cultivators, but they dare not speak out. However, Wang Qin herself is a violent temper, and as a sword cultivator, her strength is one of the best among the real people in the Dan Realm, so she is not a person from the Bird Cultivation School many times.
And the result of Wang Qin's doing this is naturally to bring more suppression to her "fighting faction". Especially in the past few years when Wang Qin was in retreat, the cultivator sect almost blatantly suppressed a few monks of the "fighting faction".
“...... In short, our Dou faction is having a hard time now. Fortunately, Wang Zhenren is out of the customs. Otherwise, if she retreats for another year or two, it's hard to say whether our Dou faction will still exist when she comes out. Tang Renli said with emotion.
Since He Zhi was a monk invited by Wang Qin to join Shueisha, he was naturally a member of the "Fighting Faction". When Tang Renli introduced the situation to He Zhi, he completely regarded him as his own person.
And just when Tang Renli and He Zhi were talking in a whisper, someone suddenly walked over not far away.
After entering the Tao, He Zhi can be said to be extremely sensitive to the eyes of others. He quickly felt the gaze falling on him, and he turned his head to look at it almost in no particular order with Tang Renli.
Tang Renli saw He Zhi's reaction, and couldn't help but secretly improve his evaluation of He Zhi in his heart.
"It's a cultivator. Soon, Tang Renli lowered his voice and said in He Zhi's ear.
"What are the people from the Cultivation Sect doing here?" Chen Keying on the other side was also full of doubts.
He Zhi nodded slightly, but his brows couldn't help frowning. The few people who came over this time were not the previous Luo monk and his party, but a group of people He Zhi had never seen.
However, what made He Zhi feel strange was that He Zhi felt that there seemed to be one of them whose eyes were fixed on his face all the time. Moreover, the man had a smile that made people feel extremely gloating all the time. It feels like he has caught He Zhi and his party with some tricks, and he will soon make them ugly.
"It's not good. Brother Mu, be careful. Tang Renli whispered to He Zhi again, then turned to the few people who had already walked to his side, and asked coldly: "Zhao Mingyang, what are you doing?"
"Hehe, nothing. It's just that a Taoist friend I was going to recommend this time suddenly said that I had met an acquaintance on your side. So I came over to take a look. Among the men who stepped forward, it was also an older monk who was at the head.
The man said to Tang Renli with a sneer on his face, and then his eyes fell on He Zhi again.
"Oh, you also know Mu Daoyou?" Tang Renli thought that the other side recognized He Zhi, so he came up to set a close look, so he asked disapprovingly.
However, Zhao Mingyang didn't pay any attention to Tang Renli at all, but turned back to a flirtatious-looking young monk behind him and asked, "How is it? Are you sure you're right?"
"Absolutely not mistaken. Hehe, Lord He of Ironforge Castle! I recognize him even if he turns to ashes! Two months ago, I sat down with Lord He and drank wine. With a strange smile, the frivolous monk pointed at He Zhi and said.
