Chapter 1: Awakening (II)
Guo Twelve was fascinated by the patterns in the thing on his forehead, those patterns were very beautiful, and he felt very comfortable. After a while, it dawned on him that it was the power of his soul that allowed him to see clearly what was on his forehead.
"Alright, kid, open your eyes. ”
The thing on his forehead suddenly disappeared. Guo Twelve opened his eyes, and he found that the old man in Tsing Yi looked at him more kindly, and asked, "Old man, is the test ready?"
The old man in Tsing Yi said kindly: "Twelve, call me Grandpa Hong, you don't have to rush out, stay by my side first." He turned to a Fu warrior next to him and asked, "Is Old Chen here?"
The Fu warrior replied respectfully, "The letter has been sent, and it should arrive soon." ”
The old man in Tsing Yi nodded and said to the next child, "Child, what's your name?"
"Guo Shi!"
The old man in Tsing Yi put the piece of thing just now on Guo Shi's head and said the request again. This time, instead of glowing red, the thing had a faint yellow. The old man showed a trace of regret on his face and said, "There is samurai potential, well, average potential." The Fu warrior next to him took out a small sign, handed it to Guo Shi, and said, "Take it, don't drop it, give it to your family." ”
Then there is Guo Dan, who also has the potential to be a samurai. Guo Shisan had no potential, and he didn't get anything.
Guo Twelve stood quietly aside. He found that the vast majority of children had samurai potential, a very few had spell warrior or talisman potential, and so far, he was the only one with spell potential.
Although I don't understand what the charm potential is, I can know from the old man who just left himself that this potential is definitely not an ordinary potential.
The test went on until noon, and half of the children remained. Someone guided the remaining children to eat, and the old man in Tsing Yi took Guo Twelve to a restaurant outside the ancestral hall. Guo Twelve met the patriarch of the Guo family in the restaurant, it was a fat old man, with a smile on his face and a very amiable appearance.
As the patriarch of the Guo family, this fat old man has a lot of power. There are more than 200,000 people in the main veins and branches of the Guo family, plus the affiliated families and retail households, with a total population of millions of people, and it is recognized as a second-class family, so the power of the patriarch is extraordinary, and the patriarch can personally accompany him, and the identity of the old man in Tsing Yi can be imagined.
Patriarch Guo Daguan was very happy in his heart, the Guo family actually produced a child with the potential for spells, which was a great joy. He smiled and said: "It's troublesome to Mr. Changfeng this time, if our Guo family can produce a charmer, it will be all Mr. Changfeng's credit." ”
Hong Changfeng, an old man in Tsing Yi, said with a smile: "This is not my credit, if the little guy has no potential, I can't help." ”
Guo Twelve buried his head in eating, although he didn't say a word, he kept thinking in his heart: "Charmer, what kind of profession is this? Exorcise evil spirits and exorcise ghosts? Shouldn't it...... What is that?" he became, the more confused he became, the world was so strange.
The meal was very simple, a big pot of boiled meat, I don't know what kind of animal meat it was, but it was delicious, and a large plate of braised meat, the sauce was maroon, cut into very large pieces, and then a bamboo basket, a whole big basket of steamed buns, there were seventy or eighty of them, there were no fresh fried vegetables, just a little unknown wild vegetables were added to that pot of boiled meat.
Guo Twelve found that he was very edible, and ate ten large steamed buns in one go, plus braised meat and broth, and only then did he eat half full. He was surprised to find that even when he was best able to eat in his previous life, he could not compare to the appetite of this eight-year-old child now.
The old man in Tsing Yi ate more, a large piece of meat, and it fell into his stomach in a few bites, as if he had swallowed it. Eating steamed buns is even more distinctive, soft big steamed buns, he grabbed them, pinched them tightly into a small ball with his hands, one bite at a time, and felt that he was not eating steamed buns, but eating peanuts.
After eating about seventeen or eighteen steamed buns, plus meat and soup, Guo Twelve finally felt full. He paused and quietly listened to the Patriarch and Hong Changfeng talking. The two of them ate as they spoke, like a storm and clouds, and ate all the food cleanly, and then stopped their mouths in satisfaction. A waiter came up with a copper basin and asked the two of them to wash their faces and hands, and Guo Twelve also washed it.
The afternoon test did not end until early evening. Guo XII found himself the only one with the potential for spells. There are more than 100 children, of which 60 percent have samurai potential, 8 percent have spell potential, and 3 percent have talisman potential, and the rest are ordinary people. Because he found a child with the potential for spells, Hong Changfeng was very satisfied with the results of this test.
At this time, Chen Lao, who had delivered the message in the morning, also arrived and retested Guo Twelve's potential, and he was also very satisfied. Guo Twelve noticed that Old Chen seemed to have a high prestige, and there were many Fu warriors around him, more than a dozen, and his killing aura was even heavier, much more powerful than the Fu warriors of the Guo family.
After Old Chen came, Hong Changfeng asked Guo Twelve to follow him. There were also four rune potentials, nine children with spell potential, plus Guo Twelve, a total of fourteen people.
There was a Fu warrior standing next to every child, only Guo Twelve did not, he was directly taken by Chen Lao's side.
Chen Lao's name is Chen Chunzhai, and he is over 80 years old this year. At the age of forty-seven, he went from being a charmer to a charmer, and then he became more and more advanced. The status of the charmer is extremely high, in this world, the charmer is a high-end existence, not only the strength of the charmer, but more importantly, the creativity of the charmer, they are the engine of this world.
From Guo Twelve's point of view, Chen Lao is at most in his fifties, and he feels much younger than Hong Changfeng, but looking at the attitude of the two of them, it is obvious that Chen Lao is the mainstay. Hong Changfeng is an old man, very respectful, and it is by no means an attitude of interacting with peers.
Chen Chunzhai's appearance is very majestic, not smiling, square face, high nose bridge, eyes deep in the eye sockets, there are two black thick silkworm eyebrows, the voice is loud, the waist is straight, and he has the temperament of a soldier.
Guo Twelve's silence and calmness made Chen Chunzhai very satisfied. An eight-year-old child can wait quietly in front of strangers, which ordinary children may not be able to do. And Chen Chunzhai could see that there was no trace of fear in this child's eyes, but more calmness, which is a quality that a charmer must have.
"Twelve, the patriarch has sent someone to inform your parents, and they will be entertained at the Guike Fang in the evening, and you can follow me. ”
Guo Twelve said: "Yes, thank you Grandpa Chen, thank you Grandpa Hong." ”
Hong Changfeng smiled and said, "It's rare for this kid to be so polite. ”
Chen Chunzhai said: "It's good to be polite, twelve, you don't have to be so polite when you see people in the future, you have the potential for spells, if you can study hard and successfully advance to a charmer, your identity will be different, then ...... Only others are polite to you, and you don't have to be too polite. ”
Hong Changfeng shook his head and said, "Old Chen, he is still a child, don't talk about these ...... yet."
Chen Chunzhai glared and said, "Did I say something wrong?"
Hong Changfeng said helplessly: "Yes, you are right, my master of spells!"
Chen Chunzhai's domineering can be seen from this. He said, "Okay, let's go to the guest shop." Blade, you take the rest of the people and the children, and go with them. ”
A warrior as sharp as a long knife agreed, immediately gathered his companions, and each walked out with his children.
Guikefang specializes in entertaining guests with status from other places, Guo Twelve thought it was a very luxurious place, but when he came to Guikefang, he found that there was no luxury except for the slightly spacious place. The heavy wooden table, the wooden floor, the torch stuck in the wall, the food is a large piece of meat, a pot with a large lid of dough, a large broth, and a large bowl of rice wine.
In the Guikefang, Guo Twelve saw his parents in this life for the first time since his soul awakened, to be precise, one father and six mothers. His father's name is Guo Liang, and his biological mother's name is Guo Li's. The status of women here is very low, and there is no status unless they can become a charmer, or a charmer, a charmer, and a warrior. The purpose of their existence is to give birth, and only when they have children can they have a certain family status.
Because Guo Twelve is a soul reincarnation, and it is the second reincarnation, he doesn't have any feelings for his parents in this life. Before his soul was awakened, he began to live independently at the age of five, even if he wanted to be close to his parents.
Guo Liang was very excited that one of his sons actually had the potential of a charm, and he was favored by the charmer Chen Chunzhai, which meant that he could get the family's reward and promotion of his position. Although until now, he couldn't remember what Guo Twelve looked like, but this did not affect his extremely excited mood.
Guo Twelve sat beside Chen Chunzhai, looking at the big meat and dough on the table, he couldn't help but sigh, but this body did not reject these foods at all, and the saliva in his mouth gradually increased with the fragrance of meat.
Chen Chunzhai asked, "Twelve, are you hungry?"
Guo Twelve nodded and said, "Yes, Grandpa Chen." ”
Chen Chunzhai said: "You eat, leave them alone." The food here is relatively simple, and when you start studying, you will have Fu food to eat, which is delicious and more satisfying than the current food. ”
Guo Twelve was also wondering in his heart, he felt that it hadn't been long before he was hungry again.
The world is big, it's not as big as eating and, I can't care so much, I'll eat it first. This age is the time to grow your body, and you can't go hungry no matter what.
Guo Twelve was so anxious that he couldn't even bother with chopsticks, so he grabbed a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. Suddenly, a thunderclap sounded in his ears, and the pieces of meat in his hands were shocked and fell down. He was very annoyed in his heart, and people were shouting and screaming.
I saw a Fu warrior rushing in, kneeling down in front of the patriarch, his voice was like thunder, and he said loudly: "Wow! Patriarch, it's not good!"
Guo Twelve was shocked by the sentence "Wow, yes", and that guy's voice was like a thunderbolt, which was terrifyingly loud.
Guo Daguan said in a deep voice: "Thunderstorm! What do you look like! Say what is the matter!"
It was only at this time that Guo Twelve discovered that the patriarch could not be underestimated, and the majesty he revealed was very imposing, and the original noisy noise in the guest shop suddenly disappeared, and there was silence all around, only the torches inserted in the walls made a crackling and slight explosion sound.
