Chapter 7: Seeking the New in the Hidden World, but Missing the Opportunity
"Full house, full house, here they are"
Before the man could enter the door, the excited voice came in.
"Uncle Yun, who's coming?" Lin Mantang, who had already heard the movement, ended the chess game with the old man of another clan and walked out of the house together.
"It's... It's..."Clan elder Lin Fangyun trotted all the way, but when he stopped suddenly, he was a little out of breath, and he slowed down for a while before he came to his senses.
"It's the sect that came, after so many years, they finally came" Lin Fangyun finally said it, Lin Mantang and the old face of the other clan looked at each other, digesting this information, gradually, the memory in the depths of his mind surfaced, the memory was too long, but the figure like a dragon was still as close as yesterday, but the figure shook his head to himself......
"Full house..."After Lin Fangyun spoke, Lin Mantang came back to his senses, looked at the letterhead printed with patterns in Lin Fangyun's hand, took the letterhead and walked hurriedly towards the bedroom.
In the open space at the entrance of Linjia Village, Wen Lotte and his sister were chatting boringly, while the young woman was looking around curiously.
"Senior Brother Wen, we've been waiting here, why doesn't anyone care about the two of us?"
"It's okay, maybe you have to make sure of something, after all, the master told me that it's been more than 40 years since I last came out to recruit new people. ”
"What's going on, why don't you tell me anything, I don't know anything," the woman was full of dissatisfaction.
"Don't make a fuss, the people you're waiting for are coming. The young man seemed to be aware of it, and his eyes looked in the direction where the clan elder had disappeared, and sure enough, the patriarch Lin Mantang was in front, and the two clan elders were behind, walking hurried towards this side.
Lin Mantang held the letterhead in his hand and stopped about two feet in front of the young man to stand still.
Lin Mantang, the twenty-first patriarch of Linjia Village, visited the envoy. "The words are respectful.
"Patriarch Lin is polite, the juniors hear Lotte, just call me Lotte, this is Senior Sister Qi Yunling, this time the sect sent the juniors to come to recruit people, and I hope that Patriarch Lin will not be reluctant. The young man also spoke in a junior tone, and he was not condescending because the patriarch was an ordinary person.
"If any baby can enter the eyes of the fairy gate, it will be their blessing, and the old man will not be happy!" Although the letterhead has already said that it is to select children with outstanding qualifications, but hearing Wen Letian, who is in charge of selecting people, say this, his heart can be regarded as steady.
The group walked and talked about coming to the Lin family ancestral hall, which stored the genealogy of the Lin family village and the immortal spirit positions of some of the ancestors. And generally if there is anything to do or organize in the village, it is to come to the front yard of this ancestral hall, which is like a small square.
"Nephew Wen Xian, don't you mind if I call you that, right?" Lin Mantang said kindly to Wen Letian.
Patriarch Lin laughed, and the younger generation couldn't ask for it. Wen Lotian replied.
The two chatted closer and closer, and began to communicate, and finally agreed to start the test in the afternoon, and the location was in the front yard of this ancestral hall.
Then he arranged for his son Lin Tianqi to inform the villagers, and he asked the family to prepare wine and food to wash the dust for Wen Letian and Qi Yunling.
The afternoon sun was exceptionally bright, and there were already many school-age children gathered here with their parents, Old Man Lin Mantang was already waiting here early, while Wen Letian and Qi Yunling were sitting and chatting in the courtyard.
"Tianqi, have you been notified, have all the children arrived?" Lin Mantang looked at Lin Tianqi who was standing aside and asked in a low voice.
"Dad, most of them have arrived, only a few of them are left in Yangyang and a few of them who are going to herd cattle, I have already called Erwa to shout, and I should already be on the way back by this time!" Lin Tianqi looked at Wen Lotte and Qi Yunling, who were chatting happily not far away, and replied in a low voice.
Lin Mantang frowned, looked in the direction of Xishan, turned around, and said to Wen Letian and the others: "Nephew Wen Xian, most of these school-age children have arrived, so you might as well start first!"
Although Wen Letian was chatting with his junior sister, he had also listened to the conversation between Lin Mantang's father and son just now, so he waved his hand: "Don't worry, don't worry, wait for those children to come back and start again!"
After finishing speaking, he continued to enjoy the warm sunshine, which was much more comfortable than in the sect on the top of Qinglong Mountain, where the cold was unbearable in the high places, the silver was flying snow, but the hot was the igneous iceberg, and the holy fire was burning for a long time.
Wen Letian's words made Lin Mantang and Lin Tianqi's father and son blush, slightly embarrassed, it turned out that others had heard the conversation between the two of them.
The west mountain of Linjia Village, a gentle and flat mountain, where the vegetation is luxuriant, wild animals are hard to find, is a rare natural pasture in Linjia Village, and the villagers are also very relieved to let the children graze cattle and sheep here.
At this time, the sun was shining, more than a dozen cattle and sheep were grazing contentedly, and under the shade of the trees not far away, four or five teenagers were lying on their backs on the grass.
"Brother Jiaoyang, how big do you say that Mr. Li said about the big city, is it bigger than our town?" A young man put his hands behind his head, turned his face sideways, and looked at the young man with an unknown weed in his mouth not far away.
"Cut, it's as if you've really been to the town, but the big city that Uncle Li said should be very big, and the thousands of miles of rivers and blue waves and blue seas that Uncle Li talked about, it's really yearning!" But the words that came out made the young man who spoke before blush.
Lin Jiaoyang sat up and looked at the thin young man lying on his back looking at the sky, and then followed his gaze, but it was a blue sky and white clouds, and there was nothing else.
"Smile, what are you looking at?"
The thin boy looks a lot smaller than a few people, and compared to a few people, he is completely malnourished, skinny, like skinny bones, he is Li Hanxiao, maybe it is more appropriate to call him Lin Darkyue now.
"I'm looking at the sky! Looking at the clouds!" Lin Diyue had an inexplicable emotion in her words, and her eyes were misty.
"Are you thinking about Uncle Li?" Lin Jiaoyang looked at Lin Diyue with this appearance, and spit out the grass stalk in his mouth irritably.
"I guess he must have something important to do, otherwise he wouldn't have come back for so many years. Lin Jiaoyang comforted.
Lin Darkyue's eye sockets were slightly sunken, looking very deep, I don't know what I saw, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth, but this smile hung on his face, but it was not so good-looking.
"Brother Jiaoyang, don't comfort me, I will always be strong......"
If you have sunshine in your heart, you will be strong!
After a short time, the second baby came over, and after explaining the reason, a group of immature teenagers, or more appropriate to call children, caught up with the cattle and sheep and returned to the village.
With the arrival of these five or six teenagers, all the school-age children in Linjia Village gathered in the front yard of the ancestral hall.
Wen Letian and Qi Yunling looked at these children, and secretly thought in their hearts that they could choose a few.
Lin Mantang stood up and introduced Wen Lotian and Qi Yunling, and then handed over the time to Wen Letian.
Wen Lotte was calm and calm, and walked leisurely to the front of the child not far away.
"I will conduct three tests on you, and those who pass all of them will be able to enter my immortal gate. The language is concise and to the point.
Next, Wen Lotian began to conduct the first test: Qimai
People are born with a context, but it is implicit, and it needs external force to excite it, and this age group is best to be ten to fifteen years old, and some people will be one or two years apart. Too early, the veins are not developed and formed, and it is easy to break if they are stimulated rashly; too late, the veins are recessively rooted, and it is difficult to open them. Therefore, most sects start at the age of eight to eighteen.
