"That's right, it was the last bottle last time, but recently it was a new one. Nangong Chi looked at the wine bottle in his hand and said proudly.

"Oh, where did the new goods come from?" asked Yuan Songxi with a curious expression.

"Hehe, it was given to me yesterday when Sanke apprenticed. ”

"Oh! It turned out to be him? This son has just gone up the mountain, and some of the stock is normal......" Speaking of this, he heard Yuan Songxi's voice turn, and said with a bit of teasing:

"However, isn't it a bit unkind for you, who is a master, not to give gifts to disciples, but to accept gifts from others?"

Hearing this, Nangong Chi immediately shook his head and smiled aggrievedly:

"I didn't want to accept it, but who knew that he was too insistent, and I was greedy for a while...... Hehe, I couldn't help but accept it. ”

"That'...... How many bottles did you give?"

"There's a whole box. ”

"Yo! It seems that I, who is a senior brother, have to go to your small courtyard to sit down recently, hehehe. ”

......

After the two chatted for a few words, they saw Nangong Chi suddenly frown, and asked:

"Senior brother, you have been in the sect longer than me, do you remember that there is a male disciple who is about my age and is good at wielding swords?"

"Good at making knives?" Yuan Songxi asked sideways while brushing his white beard, "How do you look?"

"He is not tall, his body is thin, his skin is dark, he has a black mole on his neck, and his best weapon is a glaive. Do you know this person, brother?"

After listening to Nangong Chi's description, Yuan Songxi recalled it twice, and then quickly shook his head and said:

"There is a black mole on his neck, and he is good at using the glaive knife...... It's such an obvious sign, if anything, I would have remembered. Most of the person you're talking about isn't a disciple of our faction, right?"

"This ...... I'm not sure, but I listened to Sanke tell me......"

Subsequently, I listened to Nangong Chi tell Yuan Songxi what Shanhe said about his master yesterday without reservation.

"Oh, it turns out that Sanke still has such an experience...... "After nodding suddenly, he heard Yuan Songxi ask:

"So you guess this person should be a disciple of the Nangong Sect?"

"Yes, and he left more than twenty years ago, do you have any impressions?"

"Leaving more than twenty years ago...... About 50s......"

Yuan Songxi took the small wine glass in his hand and thought carefully for a while, then suddenly nodded and said:

"If I extrapolate from the time and age of my departure, I think of one person!"

"Who?"

"Peaks!"

After saying the person's name, I heard Yuan Songxi add again:

"But in other aspects, it is difficult to match, and there is a big gap between the looks of the two and the weapons they are good at. ”

Hearing the word "mountain peak", Nangong Chi immediately frowned, and a touch of unkindness welled up on his face.

Seeing this, Yuan Songxi instantly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

How could he patronize and think about people, but forget the festival between his junior brother and the mountain peak?

Moreover, in front of his junior brother, he mentioned this person's name again, which is really undeserved! Hurriedly squeezed out a smile and diverted the topic:

"Hehe, but it definitely won't be this person. Maybe it was the disciples who left thirty or forty years ago, or even earlier, but maybe it's not true? Hehe, this is a ...... It's hard to deduce. ”

Yuan Songxi was working hard to adjust the atmosphere, but Nangong Chi's face did not improve because of this, but fell into a frowning contemplation.

It took more than half a minute before he let out a long sigh. drank all the wine in the cup, turned his head and explained to Yuan Songxi:

"Senior brother, in your spare time in the past two days, you sent someone to sort out a list of disciples who have left the sect for me in the past fifty years. The more detailed the better, I feel that most of this person is a disciple of Nangong Sect!"

Seeing that his junior brother had finally returned to normal, Yuan Songxi didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Okay! I'll arrange it as soon as possible." ”

After chatting about Sanke's master, Yuan Songxi originally planned to leave.

But before he could get up, he heard Nangong Chi suddenly tell him again:

"By the way, senior brother, there is one more thing...... I need you to check it out for me. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"The new apprentice I took in yesterday, I always feel as if he has something to hide from me. ”

Nangong Chi tapped his fingers on the table with his fingers, and said with a frown: "You send someone to help me check his details to see if there is any problem." ”

"You mean that Sanke? Okay, I'll send someone to find out later. ”

After responding to this matter, Yuan Songxi felt that his junior brother seemed to be a little too cautious in this matter, so he opened his mouth to persuade:

"But junior brother, as a cultivator, especially this kind of casual cultivation from the secular world, which one doesn't have a little secret? Hehe, as long as he is willing to sincerely think about my Nangong Gate in the future, there is no need to care too much about the past. ”

"Naturally, I, Nangong Chi, am not a stingy person. Merely...... I always felt that this kid had a holiday with the Hermitage! It is very likely that he knew the people of the Hermitage before he went up the mountain, but he refused to tell me the truth, so I made this decision. Nangong Chi replied truthfully.

"Oh! I mean, ...... What did he give to the little girl on the day he was inducted?"

"That's right!" Nangong Chi nodded in confirmation: "He was so resolute at the time, I believe there must be a reason for this!"

......

Shanhe didn't know that his master and uncle had been talking about himself for so long.

After following Su Qing to the Internal Affairs Office, he was taken into an independent "office".

Looking at the light blue round jade pendant engraved with the word "Nangong" in his hand, his face was full of confusion.

"Senior Brother Sanke, this jade pendant is your status symbol in the sect in the future. It has a lot of functions, both your ID card and your 'wallet and key', which will be used in many places, so please keep it safe. ”

After smiling and admonishing, Su Qing took out a few more forms from the drawer and handed them to Shanhe, motioning for him to fill them out now.

At the same time, he took out a white windbreaker with the word "Nangong" printed on his chest from the large closet next to him and handed it to Shanhe. and told him that this dress was Nangongmen's outing clothes, and he had one for him to put away.

After doing these tasks, Su Qing sat back at the table and asked with a smile:

"Senior Brother Sanke, the procedures for joining the faction are not complicated, as long as you fill out these forms and accept the jade pendant and windbreaker, it will be completed. Do you have any questions?"

Hearing this, Shanhe immediately stopped the pen in his hand, raised his head and asked:

"Yes, I can barely understand this jade pendant when you just said it's an ID card. But what do you mean by 'wallet and keys'?"

"There are many places in the pie that need to be entered by brushing jade pendants, and people who do not have jade pendants are not allowed to enter, this is the meaning of the key. ”

"Oh, it's an access card? Hehe, I see. ”

After nodding his head in understanding, he heard Shanhe say again: "What does the wallet mean?"
