Chapter 216: Trial
Deacon Huang groaned, and couldn't help but think of the situation when he was assessed at the beginning of Zhang Di's entry, the peasant boy after the hoeing assessment, his hands and feet were broken, a lot of blood flowed out, and he limped out, although he looked very embarrassed, but his eyes still flashed with unyielding will.
Thinking of this, Deacon Huang couldn't help but be secretly moved, and immediately made up his mind, this piece of land must have made great efforts today, and he had to fulfill his promise that day, so he said: "What the junior brother said is extremely true, Zhang Di has offended the head of the family, and we rashly put him in the hall, just afraid that it will cause trouble." ”
The young monk nodded again and again, but Deacon Huang changed his words, but said: "But if I Huang said it, how can the water spilled out be easily invalidated?
"Where's the boss?"
"Don't worry, I didn't invite him to enjoy the blessings, first strictly follow the entrance assessment, if he can't pass, then please go out! Even if he successfully enters the church, we also have a task assessment every year, so we will send him to the most difficult dilapidated spiritual equipment maintenance warehouse, he is not good, and he will be eliminated at the end of the year!" Deacon Huang said with a calm face, word by word.
When the young monk heard him say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's still Senior Brother Huang's tactfulness, so that he can fulfill his promise and not offend the head of the family." Hehe, I'm afraid that Zhang Di will regret entering our formation hall, right?"
Deacon Huang nodded noncommittally, and said secretly in his heart: "Zhang Di, Zhang Di, I can only help you to this extent, if you are diligent and steadfast, you can stay in my formation hall for three or five years." I'll find an opportunity to help you in the future. But if you are impetuous, you are so ambitious. Then get out of here before it's too late!"
Zhang Di waited outside the door of the formation hall and passed a stick of incense. The doorman who had gone in to summon the message came out, accompanied by a young monk in his twenties.
As soon as he saw this person, Zhang Di's eyes lit up, and he remembered that he was the young immortal master who had assessed himself with Deacon Huang when he entered that day, so he immediately took two steps, bowed and saluted: "Disciple Zhang Di, I have seen this uncle, I don't know what to call it?"
Zhang Di is just a body refiner at the moment. The other party is an immortal cultivator, and it is not an exaggeration to call him uncle, but if Zhang Di relies on his status as the honorary deputy hall master of Linggu Hall, and calls the other party his senior brother, it is also okay. But in that case, it seems a little disrespectful.
"My surname is Chen, I am the junior brother of Deacon Huang, and I am a second-grade array mage, and I am responsible for managing the outer hall affairs of the formation hall on weekdays. Deacon Huang is now busy with formation research. I don't have time to see you, just tell me if you have anything!" the man said lukewarmly, looking up and down as he spoke, his gaze unfriendly.
See this man like this. Zhang Di also knew that he might not be welcome to enter the church, otherwise the kind Deacon Huang would not hide from him. But since he came, he didn't want to be sent away in disgrace.
So he smiled slightly. said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "I have seen Uncle Chen, I don't know if I still remember more than three years ago." Thank you for your support to Zhang Di, which is why Zhang Di is today. ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, what's the matter with you?" the other party waved his hand impatiently, not wanting to have a relationship with Zhang Ditao.
Zhang Di's eyes narrowed, and he quietly took a look at the Qi Technique, only to see that the aura around the other party's body was churning, and his cultivation was not low, although he had not reached the foundation building period, he also had the level of eleven or twelve levels of Qi refining, which was a few levels higher than himself, and he couldn't help but be secretly vigilant.
He immediately smiled and said, "Uncle Chen, the disciple was agreed by Deacon Huang back then, saying that if the disciple reaches the third level of body refining, he can come to the Formation Hall for assessment and apply to join the Formation Hall." ”
Hearing this, the monk surnamed Chen looked at Zhang Di, Zhang Di controlled the momentum of his body, and only maintained it at the fifth level of body refining, and then saw that the other party nodded with satisfaction: "Well, it seems that you have had some adventures in the past three years, and you have actually reached the fifth level of body refining." ”
Then the conversation changed, "However, although the physical conditions have been reached, the formation is the first talent, followed by perseverance and understanding. If you want to enter the church, you still have to take the assessment, come with me!"
Zhang Di respectfully followed, secretly looking forward to the upcoming assessment.
The two of them came to a certain hall in the formation hall, only to see more than a dozen puppets for practicing standing here, covered with red dots and thin lines.
"Let's take a look at the results of your body refining first! These puppets are all level 3 or above in body refining, you have to fight with them one-on-one, and if you can stick to a stick of incense, it means that your body is practicing well, and your learning formation has reached the minimum standard. The monk surnamed Chen pointed to the puppets and explained to Zhang Di.
"What do the red dots and thin lines on the puppet man mean?" asked Zhang Di, he had experienced the practice of fighting with puppeteers in the Body Refining Hall before, but the puppeteers there did not have these things on them, which naturally made him curious.
"Oh, this is to practice the accuracy and stability of the knife at the moment of carving, when the puppet man attacks, the qi and blood on the body will run rapidly along the meridians, and when the knife is clicked on the acupuncture points where the qi and blood run, the effect of the point will be formed, and the puppet man will be subdued. You have a shallow foundation at the moment, this kind of practice is too difficult for you, you don't need to be tested!"
Looking at the other party's noncommittal appearance, Zhang Di thought to himself that he had already been famous, and he didn't need to hide his strength too much, so he would show the results of his body refining well, so that the other party could look up to himself, and maybe he could teach himself the knowledge of the formation with all his heart.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly and said, "Disciple Bucai, I want to try this acupoint test!"
"Oh, do you want to come up and try this?" The monk surnamed Chen was taken aback, and looked at Zhang Di with round eyes, but he knew how difficult it was to practice this point, and the disciples who entered the hall could only start practicing after half a year of basic formation carving. After another half a year of practice, you can successfully pay a puppeteer.
But when he thought about it, this land was so thick that he just made him suffer a big loss, so he was about to drive him out.
So he nodded and said, "If you want to try this, it's nothing, but let's say it first, if you are knocked to the ground by the puppeteers, even if you lose." The matter of entering the Formation Hall can only be done temporarily, you can go back and wait for three years before coming back!"
Zhang Diying said: "The disciple knows. ”
Seeing Zhang Di's appearance of not knowing what to do, the monk surnamed Chen secretly sneered, and said in his heart: "After a while, you will be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, crying dad and calling my mother to save you!"
It turns out that although these puppets are the strength of the third-level body refiners, it is not easy to use a little acupoint method to subdue them, if they can't be subdued in a stick of incense, the puppet person's body will become more and more vigorous, and the punch will become heavier and heavier, and the examiner's body will be exhausted by qi and blood.
The reason why such a mystery is set up is also to test whether the examiner's mind is alert, after all, the formation has extremely high requirements for the heart, if there is no calm and alert mind, it is difficult to enter the room.
So he stretched out his hand and pointed to the shelves in the hall, where dozens of carving knives were placed side by side, and said: "These carving knives are available in various materials, you choose the right one, and then select a puppeteer, let's start the assessment!"
Zhang Di walked to the shelves, his eyes swept over the carving knives, and he saw that some were as thick as mallets, some were as slender as toothpicks, and some were not too big or small, like a chopstick; as for the materials, they were even more different, some were golden, some were as black as ink, and the tips were also of different shapes, some were sharp and shiny, some were flat, and some had no blades at all, and they did not know how to use them for carving.
Zhang Diyi stretched out his hand and chose a black carving knife with no edge, about the thickness of a chopstick, which looked plain. But the knife was held in his hand, but it was moderately weighty, which made him feel quite comfortable.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Di chose this carving knife, which made the monk surnamed Chen's mouth move, and he wanted to say something but didn't say it, with a rather strange look in his eyes.
"Just this puppeteer!" he pointed the knife in his hand and pointed at a puppeteer.
"Okay! Then let's start!" the monk surnamed Chen hit the magic trick and fell into the puppet man's body, only to see its dim eyes suddenly burst into the air, soaring into the air, raising its fists high, and smashing it down on the head.
He even said that he would fight, without warning, and the fists smashed down high, and the momentum was magnificent, stirring up a strong wind to blow the robes around the ground and hunting.
The monk surnamed Chen saw Zhang Di standing there as if he was frightened, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and said secretly: "The cowhide blows upside down, but it's a pity that I don't have any real skills!" As if seeing the next moment, Zhang Di was beaten to the point of bleeding and rolled to the ground. (To be continued......)
