Chapter 16: Interrogation
"Ahh Then he lifted the kettle and poured a few sips, and found that he had drunk all the water in the kettle.
"Hmph, can it not be delicious? This is not the pork that mortals eat, this is a special product of Dingzhou - spirit pork, or a second-grade one, this spirit pig is produced in the immortal cultivation world, and the spirit pig raised in Dongling Mountain contains very low spiritual power. I am a second-grade spirit pork from Dingzhou, and I have eaten my pork, I will remember this account for you, and it is best to pay it back to me before you hang up. Old man Mi despised Tianjiu and said.
"Babbling, old man Mi, who are you slandering? There is a second-grade spirit pork, why haven't you seen it for me to eat!"
Suddenly, a little girl rushed in from the gate of the square, dressed in a blue palace dress, very decent, and her goose egg face looked extremely beautiful and cute.
"Xiaomi, what are you doing here? Nonsense! Go back to cultivation!" Old Man Mi glared at the girl and shouted.
"Old man Mi, if you don't go back so late, why don't you want me to come to you? Cultivation, cultivation all day long, it's too boring. I heard that you met two helpless? is it?" Xiaomi said viciously pointing at Tianjiu.
Old Man Mi got up again and pulled the little girl's clothes out. "Xiaomi, can you save me some face in front of outsiders in the future? Don't bite a Mi old man, you go back first, Daddy may have to keep vigil here tonight." ”
"Okay, I'll call you Lao Mi!What? You won't go back tonight? No, no, I'm afraid of the dark, you can send these two away, what are you doing guarding them?" Then he pointed to Tianjiu and shouted: "You, and you, stay where you go, Lao Mi and I are going home!"
Tianjiu and Yu Zicong both smiled bitterly, they wished they could leave early, the fool wanted to stay here and drink the cool breeze!
"Yes, yes, Fairy Xiaomi, you tell Uncle Shi to hurry up and distribute the task to us, and we will leave, and we will not delay your rest. Yu Zicong nodded and said.
Millet looked at her dad in surprise.
"Xiaomi, don't listen to their nonsense, it's not that Daddy doesn't arrange them, it's really tricky! That big man offended your Fifth Master Ancestor and caused him to vomit blood. Without your Fifth Master Ancestor's words, I can't arrange it! Arrange for him to go to the spar mine, within ten days, he will definitely die, and outsiders will definitely say that the Fifth Elder is narrow-minded and deliberately killed him; arrange a light task, the Fifth Elder will definitely be angry, if it is not good, I will also be punished. "Old Mi's teeth hurt a little, two are not enough, and there is another little ancestor.
"Oh, big man, are you very powerful? The Fifth Master Ancestor is an old monster of Jindan, I think your cultivation is much worse than mine, isn't there anything surprising?" said Mi as he looked around Tianjiu a few times.
Tianjiu was a little embarrassed to be stared at by her, scratching his head and saying. "This ...... This one...... It's because I'm too bad, and the Fifth Master Ancestor thinks I've lost his face, so I'm in a hurry. ”
"Alas, the Fifth Master Ancestor is too stingy! He vomited blood for this little!" said Mi with his hands behind his back, learning to look like an adult.
"Xiaomi, Mi Yurong! I warn you, don't make up bad things about your elders behind your back. Also, don't mention vomiting blood in the future, otherwise, if you get into trouble, you will be responsible for it. Old Man Mi blew his beard and glared.
"Oh, if you don't mention it, don't mention it, why are you so loud! Isn't it just that the big man is stupid! It's okay to be stupid, let him raise pigs. Millet shook her head and said.
"Pig raising??"
"Pig ???"
Old Man Mi exclaimed in unison with Tianjiu and Yu Zicong. Old Man Mi's eyes seemed to suddenly brighten, and he finally thought of how to reply to the Fifth Elder tomorrow.
In the early morning of the second day, when the first rays of sunlight shone on the Luoxia Temple Square, Tianjiu yawned and woke up from his dream.
Last night, Old Man Mi couldn't survive Xiaomi's entanglement, so he went back. After figuring out how to arrange, he ordered Tianjiu and Yu Zicong to stay in the square, and if they dared to go beyond half a step, they would be killed.
Tianjiu curled up in the middle of the square and spent the first night in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. The nights in the Immortal Cultivation Realm were long and cold, but he was too tired, and after eating and drinking enough, he slept until dawn. And Yu Zicong sat cross-legged from beginning to end, meditating near Tianjiu, his mind was still struggling painfully, not knowing whether to leave Tianjiu or not.
"Ahh
"Uh-?" He saw an old man with fairy wind bones standing on the steps of the Luoxia Palace, and Old Man Mi was bowing down to talk to him, wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead from time to time.
The old man turned around and saw Tianjiu standing up, and smiled at him.
This smile gave Tianjiu the feeling of a spring breeze, and it was this unconscious smile that saved Huachenmen from the brink of collapse ten years later.
"You two come here!" said the old man with a nod and a smile. Although the old way was far away from them, they could hear it clearly in Tianjiu, and there was majesty and kindness in their words.
Tianjiu and Yu Zicong hurriedly ran over.
"This is the head of the sect, you two criminals, don't bow down yet!" Old Man Mi said in a low voice.
"Ah!" Tianjiu and Yu Zicong were shocked and immediately knelt on the ground.
"I've seen the Master Master!" they shouted in unison.
"Well, let's get up and talk. Ouyang De stroked his sparse beard, flicked his hand lightly, and a soft huge force came, and Tianjiu and Yu Zicong both stood upright.
"Thank you, Master Master!" Tianjiu and Yu Zicong hurriedly said.
"Okay! Your name is Yu Zicong, Sanlinggen, you are not very old, and you are at the peak of the first layer of qi refining, well, it's not bad!" Ouyang De said to Yu Zicong.
"The younger generation is Yu Zicong, who just turned thirteen this year. Yu Zicong didn't expect the head of the house to be the first to ask him, and replied in a panic.
"I heard that you are the second place in the selection of outer disciples?"
"Yes, although I am the second, but it all depends on the credit of Brother Tian, I am just lucky, it is not true. Yu Zicong replied truthfully.
"Oh, how do you think you can be in the first place?"
"The top 10 is fine, the top five may be barely. Yu Zicong thought for a while and replied.
Ouyang De carefully examined Yu Zicong again for a long time, nodded and said, "Well, you are very practical and wise. Then do you say that he really won the first place, and the other selected disciples did not give in?" Ouyang De pointed to Tianjiu and asked Yu Zicong.
"Master Ancestor, Zicong won't lie, he did win the first place, and the top ten disciples have no objections. I think all the disciples who participated in the selection should have no objections!" Yu Zicong replied anxiously, knowing that this was a moment related to the fate of Tianjiu, and he couldn't be sloppy.
"Really, how do you say that?" Ouyang De's eyes lit up, and Old Man Mi also glanced at Tianjiu in surprise.
"That's right, Brother Tian killed a golden snake mang that blocked our path, this golden snake mang should have advanced to the first-order demon beast, and almost all the disciples at that time were desperate, thinking that they couldn't pass this selection. After the eldest brother killed the golden snake that day, the disciples present all gave way to let us go first. So we won the first and second places, and there was no hiding at all, and these can be confirmed in the top ten disciples. ”
"Well, well, the first-order demon beast Golden Snake is reckless! What are those law enforcement disciples eating, but they didn't even notice its existence! It seems that there is a mistake in management, and it almost ruined this selection. Deacon Mi, you will go and check which disciples are in charge of the selection garden this time, and you from other sects will send notes to the deacons of each sect, and you will report to me directly from Huachen, it seems that it will not work if you don't punish them. Ouyang De looked at Deacon Mi, and then said: "You take Yu Zicong down, according to the normal outer disciples, no discrimination, you come here in two moments." ”
"Yes, master!" Old Man Mi bowed and beckoned to Yu Zicong.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the hall to go through the formalities, and in the future, you will officially be my outer disciple of Huachen Sect." ”
Yu Zicong glanced back at Tianjiu a few times, and followed Old Man Mi with complicated eyes.
"Tianjiu, it's just you and me here, you can talk about yourself. Ouyang De looked at Tian Jiu and said, that look seemed to be able to see through everything.
"Myself?" cold sweat flowed from Tianjiu's forehead. "I'm twenty-one years old, and I'm an orphan from a small mountain village on the eastern side of Dongling Mountain, oh, it's by the sea. Tian Jiu finished speaking, for fear that Ouyang De would find out his flaws.
"Well, I know all of this, I want to know how you killed the Golden Snake Mang? You won't tell me that you killed it with your bare hands, and you can't do it with the cultivation of the first level of Qi refining. Ouyang De said bluntly.
"Oh, this!" Tianjiu was shocked, as long as he didn't ask where he came from, he wasn't afraid of anything. "Of course I didn't kill with my bare hands, I relied on this ......" After speaking, he took out a grenade from his backpack, which was one of the three snatched from Bald Qiang.
"Huh?!Lei Zhenzi!" Ouyang De saw the grenade that Tianjiu took out and burst out.
"Who gave you Lei Zhenzi, can you show it to me?" Ouyang De asked with a look of surprise on his face.
"Oh, this is when I was five years old, I met an old Taoist priest wearing a crown on his head, wearing a Taoist robe, and a white beard fluttering on the mountain, he forced me to take a pill, saying that if I don't die, give me these two treasures, as a result, I have severe pain all over my body, zuihou lucky not to die, the old Taoist priest is also very strange, looked at me and said it's okay, and then gave this to me, saying that as long as I pull the pull ring, it will explode, and tell me to put it away, not as a last resort. This time, I also tried to see if I could blow up the golden snake mang, who knew that it was really blown up. "Tianjiu arranged the dead white-bearded old man, who told him to harm him, he should be arranged.
