Under the leadership of Ge Zhiguo, the three "newcomers" slowly walked to the center of the main hall.

Mo Guanxing looked excited, Qin Xiaodou was a little nervous, only Shanhe kept his head down.

Because a long time ago, Shanhe found out that his sworn enemy, Han Yi, was sitting in the middle of the field at this moment!

Seeing this old thief who killed the master and arrested the senior sister, Shanhe's anger surged out, he really wanted to rush forward and punch the other party hard!

Even if he was beaten to death by the other party afterwards, he felt very relieved.

But think about it, reality is reality.

In his heart, he could beat Han Yi at will, a hundred times, a thousand times, but in reality he knew that he had to endure it.

And not only patience, he must also hide his emotions.

It must not be because of a momentary carelessness that the old thief saw the flaw, thus ruining the opportunity to rescue the senior sister.

So, after hearing the boss call them in, Shanhe tried to restrain the emotions in his heart on the one hand, trying to behave more freely;

On the other hand, he also tried to keep his head as low as possible, trying not to make people see the resentment that would pop up on his face from time to time.

Standing on the side, Xiaodou soon noticed the abnormality of the mountains and rivers.

At first, she didn't quite understand what happened to Brother Shanhe. It wasn't until she listened to the introduction and learned that Han Yi was also at the scene that she immediately understood Shanhe's mood.

When people were not paying attention, she secretly stretched out her little hand and clenched Shanhe's clenched fist. He shook his head with a look of concern and concern, signaling not to be impulsive.

After seeing Xiaodou's concerned expression, although it was reluctant, Shanhe finally forced out a smile and nodded at Xiaodou.

"Are Mo Guanxing, Dou Xiaoqin and San Ke standing in the audience?" After the three of them lined up and stood facing themselves, they heard Nangong Chi speak again.

"It's the disciple!" the three of them said in unison.

"Well, the three of you have passed the test, and from today onwards, you will officially become the disciples of my Nangong Sect. Now is the time to start the initiation ceremony. ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Ge Zhiguo move a wooden table from nowhere and put it in front of the three of them.

Then, he took a colorful incense burner and placed it on the table, and took out a packet of incense from the ring and handed it to the three people.

According to the custom, each of them first kowtowed nine heads to Nangong Chi, put on nine sticks of incense, and listened to a few words of teachings and door rules, which was considered to have completed the initiation ceremony.

Seeing that the initiation ceremony was so simple, and the whole process only lasted more than ten minutes, it surprised Shanhe. glanced at Xiaodou, and just wanted to say something, when Nangong Chi spoke again:

"Okay! Now that the initiation ceremony has been completed, then it's time for today's second item - the apprenticeship ceremony!" Speaking of this, Nangong Chi did not rush to proceed, but first asked the audience:

"Have you heard of the details of apprenticeship before?"

Seeing that the head asked about himself, the three of them replied at the same time: Mo Guanxing, who knew about it, nodded, while Shanhe and Xiaodou, who didn't know anything, shook their heads.

Seeing this scene, Nangong Chi glanced at Elder Li behind him.

Then, I saw Elder Li appear again, and while brushing his white beard, he preached to the three new disciples:

Since the three of you have already joined our sect, you must find a master in the sect to follow and practice. This has been the case since ancient times, without exception. ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to "find" the master, although Xiaodou was nervous, he still couldn't help but ask:

"So, is that a random choice?"

"Of course not!"

Hearing this, Elder Li immediately blew his beard and shook his head glaringly:

"Do you think you're going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables? You can choose at random, the little doll really doesn't know how to talk nonsense!" After reprimanding Xiaodou, Fang opened his mouth and explained:

"I have a large number of Nangong disciples, and most of them are within the four palaces of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Every year, the new disciples are also selected by the four palace masters. As long as you can be favored by the palace master, you can join the palace and find a suitable master with the help of the palace master. Normally, the palace master will recommend a suitable elder for the disciple as the master. Of course, if you are lucky, you may also be directly accepted as an apprentice by the palace master. What the final result will be depends on the individual's creation. ”

"Oh, it turned out that the palace master picked us, not the master......" I muttered to myself, and saw Xiaodou ask again:

"What if you don't get picked?"

Hearing this question, a look of helplessness suddenly flashed on Elder Li's face, and after thinking about it, he said:

"If you don't get picked, you have to ...... The head or the Ministry of Internal Affairs to deal with it. We will help the unsuccessful disciples find a suitable teacher, so you don't have to worry about that. ”

"Oh, that sounds ...... It doesn't seem bad, hehe. ”

Xiaodou, who didn't understand the difference, smirked twice, and then another question suddenly popped up in his head, and asked:

"Huh, then why are there only four palace masters to choose from? Like you, as well as those old grandfathers and grandmothers sitting in the back, why don't you accept apprentices?"

"What do you mean by old man and old grandmother, and you have to call old man!" After correcting a sentence sharply, Elder Li opened his mouth to explain:

"Strictly speaking, everyone present has the right to take in disciples. However, as I said earlier, most of the disciples of this sect are concentrated in the four houses, so it is also a routine operation to let the disciples enter the four houses first. So generally speaking, the elders do not take the initiative to accept disciples. Of course, there are exceptions to everything, such as today's ......."

Halfway through his words, he saw that Elder Li suddenly showed an unusually kind smile and said to Qin Xiaodou:

"Little girl, you have been asking for a long time, and it seems that you really want to find an elder to apprentice, don't ......you? I might as well consider taking you as an apprentice!"

Because of the title, Elder Li, who had yelled at himself just now, suddenly became so kind, and said that he would accept himself as a disciple. After hearing this, Qin Xiaodou was instantly stunned and didn't know how to reply.

But soon, without her opening, Yan Sheng, the palace master of the Summer Palace, who was sitting on the left, had already yelled at Elder Li dissatisfiedly:

"Elder Li, what do you mean? Why are you talking about the rules, and suddenly you are fooling people? You want to play like this, hehe, I Yansheng won't agree!"

"Hehe, just kidding, the Yan Palace Lord doesn't need to take it seriously. With such a talent, the old man also knows that he can't compete, and he is just addicted, and he hopes that the four palace masters will not blame. After smiling apologetically, he saw Elder Li looking at Xiaodou again and asking:

"Little girl, is there any more problem? ”

"Uh, I want to think about it...... Oh yes, there's another one!"

Qin Xiaodou touched his chin and asked with a serious face:

"Then if several people fall in love with the same disciple and want to accept him as an apprentice, then what should we do?"
