Chapter 33: The Present Situation of the Persons
"Brother Bai, you have grown taller!"
Jiang Wu came up and gave Bai Ya a hug fiercely, and Lu Yuan also came up and hugged him, only Tang Hunt smiled reservedly and hugged his fists. He is handsome, always surrounded by a lot of strange eyes, and he doesn't like to hug others very much.
"Growing taller?"
Bai Ya compared himself with Jiang Wu and the others, and sure enough, he found that he had grown a lot taller. Although he is still half a head shorter than the tall and burly Jiang Wu, his actual height is almost close to one meter eight.
In the mountains of the past, no one ever told him this. After the Spring Festival this year, Bai Ya is actually growing taller, and he is almost 17 years old this year, just in the development period.
Looking at Lu Yuan and the others carefully, Bai Ya found that these friends had also changed a lot. Jiang Wu had been cultivating in the Zhenwu Dojo for nearly two years, and he had already broken through the threshold of the Qi Realm half a year ago, and his body had grown even more burly and thick.
Lu Yuan grew a short beard, and although he was just over twenty-one years old, he looked more mature and steady. In fact, with the aesthetics of this world, he is more like a beautiful man than Tang Hunt.
In the martial arts, he, like Bai Ya, has already achieved the release of internal qi and external qi, and the probability of being selected for the Ling Tian Pavilion martial arts test this time is very high, at least more than fifty percent.
After nearly two years of recuperation in the medicinal canteen, Tang Hunt's physique has improved a lot, but he looks more demonic, and he can't even see the Adam's apple. Now put on women's clothes, and the return rate of going out shopping is 100%, and men, women, and children are killed.
Lu Qing is still pretty and cute, she and Jiang Nan are both over sixteen years old, but the previous Lu Chai stick figure has now become bumpy, and she slowly has the charm and beauty of a young girl.
Although she has not yet broken through the qi realm, she will participate in the martial arts test with Lu Yuan this year. According to Tang Hunt's analysis, with Lu Qing's age, appearance, temperament and martial arts skills, she had a greater chance of being admitted to Ling Tiange than Lu Yuan.
Jiang Nan still has the elegant appearance of few words, and always has a gentle smile on his face. Although the girl's appearance is not outstanding, her popularity in the Zhenwu Dojo is very high, and she is much more popular than her brother Jiang Wu, and she is a temperamental beauty.
"Come, take a seat!"
After some greetings, Lu Yuan beckoned everyone to the table, and after a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere slowly became warmer.
"Brother Bai, maybe tell me about your experience in the Qingcheng martial arts test?" After three rounds of drinking, Lu Yuan asked the most concerned question at the moment, and several other people also listened.
Bai Ya was silent for a while, and then recounted his experience. However, he only talked about the Snow Mountain Test and the third level of the martial arts test, and was very clever not to mention the mental level of the Qingcheng Martial Arts Test and the speculation about the mental nature during the Snow Mountain Test.
He knew that he couldn't teach Lu Yuan how to pass the mental level, and this needed Lu Yuan to grasp by himself.
Emei, like Qingcheng, is a great sect of immortals, and they are equally strict in their control of the heart. With Lu Yuan's temperament, even if he doesn't teach him this level, there shouldn't be much of a problem, and it won't be self-defeating.
"Brother, be more confident, with your martial arts, as long as you are calm and serious during the competition, and don't rush forward, you should be able to get enough victories......" Bai Ya pushed his mustard seed bag to Lu Yuan, and said with a smile, "In addition, this thing will be given to you, and during the martial arts test, prepare more wilderness survival tools!"
"Mustard seed bag?" Lu Yuan looked at the mustard seed bag handed over by Bai Ya, his expression was a little complicated, "This thing is too valuable......
Although Lu Yuan and the others are all children of the family, they are not the most important descendants of the Lu family, and there is no such thing as a mustard seed bag around them.
"Brother, don't excuse me, I'm a boy from the Qingdu Guanzheng Altar, and I can go to the Guanzhong to get another one. Your martial arts test will be accompanied by this thing, and it will also save you a lot of trouble. Bai Ya said with a smile, "When you pass the martial arts test, you can leave this thing to Brother Jiang and Brother Tang in the future!"
Lu Yuan heard this and did not refuse. After all, the mustard seed bag is just something outside the body, and it is a big deal to return it to Baiya later.
Half an hour later, the end of the song was dispersed, and Lu Yuan called Xiao Er to settle the bill.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is already someone at your table who has paid the bill, and it is the minister by the window over there. ”
Everyone was stunned, and looked along the fingers of the shopkeeper, and found that on the opposite side of the tavern lobby, several young people were looking at this side, and one of the young men in brocade robe even raised a glass to them.
"But what's the reason?" Lu Yuan frowned, raised his glass and saluted in return, and asked cautiously.
"That boy said he just wanted to make friends with you, and he didn't mean anything wrong!" asked the shopkeeper respectfully.
"You thank that boy for waiting for me, but I still have to pay the wine bill myself. Lu Yuan looked at Lu Qing and Jiang Nan beside him with a smile, and refused with a smile.
"Look at what we are doing, there are so many disciples in this world!" Lu Qing glared back at the table angrily.
They have come out to get together, and this has happened more than once. In most cases, it is some young people who have excess hormones and want to get close to Lu Qing and Jiang Nan.
Under normal circumstances, Lu Yuan's statement can be rejected thousands of miles away. Although they are wearing long robes, the kind of side cardigan gowns, leggings on their feet and bracers on their hands all indicate the identity of martial artists, and ordinary people will not do much entanglement.
But this time the situation seemed to be a little different, hearing Xiao Er's reply, the brocade-robed young man opposite actually came over with a shy face.
"It's Wu Zhen, a disciple of Emei Lingtian Pavilion, I don't mean to offend, and I ask you not to be surprised......" The young man in the brocade robe was three meters away from the wine table, so he smiled and hugged his fists and saluted, and the opening remarks made everyone stunned.
What a coincidence! Bai Ya squinted his eyes and looked at the other party.
The young man in the brocade robe was not dressed as a martial artist, with a brocade robe and a jade belt, a purple and gold three-pronged crown on his head, a sword eyebrow, a high nose and a broad forehead, and a handsome appearance. As soon as he came over, he was smiling all over his face, and it made people feel good when he looked at him.
"Your Excellency is too modest...... Hearing that this person is a disciple of Ling Tiange, Lu Yuan is not good at raising his eyebrows, and he got up and replied with a smile.
The two chatted for a few words, and the brocade-robed young man smiled politely and retired.
"Brother, what did you talk about?" Seeing the brocade-robed young man walking away, Lu Qing couldn't help but ask curiously.
"That person is the senior brother who was admitted to Ling Tiange last time. Lu Yuan was a little happy, "I have seen me in the Ling Tian Martial Pavilion before, and knowing that I am also going to take the Ling Tian Pavilion this time, he invited me to meet next time." ”
"It turned out that it wasn't for Sister Lu!" Jiang Wu looked at Lu Qing and snickered, and was immediately punched by Lu Qing and Jiang Nan respectively.
"The man's surname is Wu ...... But the children of the Chengdu Wu clan?" Tang Hunt raised his eyebrows.
"Well, it's the eldest grandson of the current head of the Wu family!" Lu Yuan nodded solemnly.
"If it's a disciple of the Wu family...... After my brother enters Ling Tian Pavilion, you should be cautious about your interactions!" Tang Hunt said cautiously.
"What's wrong with this Wu clan?" Bai Ya listened a little strangely on the side, Lu Yuan and the others were also children of the family, so why did they seem to be a little wary of this Wu clan.
"The Wu clan is a very famous martial arts family in Shu, and now it is still a royal family......" Tang Hunt explained softly.
After the end of the Second Warring States Period, martial arts families began to emerge, just as the hundred schools of thought were deeply rooted in the court and the people, and within the Xianwu Sect, the proportion of martial arts families was also very large.
Compared to ordinary children of the Han family, the children of the martial arts family have more cultivation resources. They have the martial arts left by their predecessors, and with the help of the wealth of the family industry, they don't have to be busy for their livelihood, they can learn martial arts systematically from an early age, and their physical foundation is better.
Although the Xianwu Sect has always treated admissions equally, it is undeniable that it is easier for the children of the family to be admitted to the big sects.
Chengdu Wu is one of the several relatively large martial arts families of the Emei faction, and because of the royal family as the backing, the power has developed rapidly over the years, and it has already had many innate powerhouses.
Although there is no too bad reputation in the rivers and lakes, you must be very careful when dealing with the children of this kind of family, so as not to get involved in the internal disputes of the Emei faction.
......
Coming out of the tavern, Bai Ya didn't go back with Lu Yuan and the others, he still had to go back to Feng Yang's mansion in Chengdu to meet the two Mengshi.
"Senior brother is back!" Seeing Bai Ya coming back from a distance, Lin Mu happily went back to the house to report to everyone.
"Okay, okay, just come back!" After receiving the letter from Bai Ya, Feng Yang and Dong Ming had been waiting at home for a long time.
"Two gentlemen, White Cliff is back!"
Seeing Feng Yang and Dong Ming's happy appearance, Bai Ya was a little ashamed, he should come back to see it first, and then go to see Lu Yuan and the others.
"Come, show the master, it's really ...... I've grown a lot taller!"
Du Shi and Huang Wan pulled Bai Ya to ask long and short questions, and after getting along for a long time, Feng Yang's two wives and concubines had already regarded him as their own descendants, and they were no longer as estranged as they were at the beginning.
"Senior brother, where is my gift?" Feng Yan stared at him with wide eyes, Xiao Nizi was not as afraid of him as before, and now she dared to pester him for something.
When he first saw Lin Mu and Feng Yan, Bai Ya was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't recognize it.
The two little children at the beginning have grown up now, both of them are fourteen, Feng Yan is already slim and a big girl.
Bai Ya handed out the large bags he was carrying, although he was an otaku, he still understood the basic etiquette, and he would not come back empty-handed.
"Okay, don't pester your senior brother, Bai Ya, come in with us!" Feng Yang drove Lin Mu and Feng Yan away and took Bai Ya into the study.
"Baiya, how are you ...... in Qingcheng?"
"It's really fast......"
Feng Yang and Dong Ming began to bomb in turn, making Bai Ya's brain commotion.
"By this time in the year after tomorrow, Lin Mu should also be a disciple of Qingcheng, right?"
"Hmm, has the little junior brother reached the qi realm?" Feng Yang's emotion made Bai Ya startled.
Compared with his height, Lin Mu's martial arts progress surprised Bai Ya even more, he remembered that Lin Mu was only fourteen this year and sixteen the year after. Although he himself entered Qingcheng at the age of fifteen, his luck in passing the martial arts test was very large, and it could not be compared.
"Yes, Lin Mushan talks about qualifications, he does have the demeanor of a certain year, he just broke into the qi realm a month ago, and he can go to the martial arts test the year after tomorrow. Even if you can't get through, you can accumulate some experience, and you will have a great chance of it in six years. ”
Feng Yang said with a smile, "In addition, I plan to let Yan'er try it too, she is working hard now!"
"Xiaoyan is also going to be admitted to Qingcheng?"
Bai Ya's eyes couldn't help but widen, he felt that he wouldn't love anymore in the future, he couldn't imagine what it would be like for that troublemaker to enter Qingcheng.
