Chapter 74 Farewell

At the end of September, Yangshen Peak held the last ancestral meditation before selecting disciples for this year. The disciples' practice results were confirmed. Fifteen days later, they will embark on different paths, and some may never have the chance to meet again in their lifetime.

The calm atmosphere of Yangshen Peak was temporarily interrupted. There were people saying goodbye to each other everywhere in the secluded forest. Some people even cried bitterly. The new disciples who had nothing to do with the selection of disciples dismissed this and always avoided the old disciples while walking, secretly making a decision in their hearts. When he was about to leave Yangshen Peak, he would never be so rude and crying. How could he look like a cultivator?

In fact, the old disciples thought the same way two years ago. When things came to a close, they couldn't control their emotions.

There was no homework in the afternoon of the Ancestral Day, so eight teenagers from Yelin Town gathered in Banyuelin to hold a small farewell ceremony. Under the strong request of Daliang Shen Xiuming, Fangfang did not bring Xiao Qingtao.

"It's Yelin Town, there are no outsiders." Daliang stood on the boulder. He is sixteen years old, the oldest among his friends, but it is the first time he speaks as a big brother. He knows that this is probably the last time. , "Some people call us devils, some people say we are lucky. No matter what, I am proud of everyone in Yelin Town."

There were tears in Daliang's eyes. Everyone felt ridiculous at first, but when they thought of Daliang's brother, everyone felt the same sadness.

Daliang pointed at his companions and introduced the results of his practice one by one, without using nicknames, "Qin Lingshuang, Huotong Niwan Palace has not survived the heavenly tribulation, and is second only to Gong Miao among the female disciples."

Fangfang smiled shyly and raised her hand to cover her mouth out of habit, "You forgot Cheng Jia, she is the perfect calamity."

"She is a fourth-year disciple. She stayed for one more year, so it doesn't count." Daliang waved his hand boldly, and the tears in his eyes disappeared, "You have done a good job for our Yelin Town. There are two so-called daughters of the Taoist sect. I was very good at boasting before, but in the end my practice results were not as good as yours. Don’t be chased by them in the future.”

Everyone applauded and praised, but Fangfang just laughed and said nothing more.

"Mu Xingqiu - let's call him Brother Xiaoqiu." Daliang is one year older than Xiaoqiu, but he has gotten used to it over the years. "The first Huotong Santian, the Heavenly Tribulation was completed a little later, so it's the same as Shen Ji. After a tie, Yelin Town's biggest pride must be him.

Everyone applauded louder, Xiaoqiu grinned.

"Shen Hao, Huotong Santian Heavenly Tribulation has not yet been completed. To be honest, I think you can do better. It should be until the Heavenly Tribulation is completed."

Shen Hao looked up at Daliang unconvinced, put his hands on his hips, and said loudly: "Don't worry, the outcome has not been decided yet. Brother Xiaoqiu, let's make a bet. You will survive the catastrophe earlier than me, but if you condense the energy into Dan I'll be faster than you."

"Yes, we need this energy!" Daliang added fuel to the fire happily, "What are you betting on?"

A group of homeless teenagers, of course, have nothing of value. Shen Hao thought for a while and said, "Bet a copper coin that Li Yuechi left one copper coin for each of us."

"Okay, let's bet on this." Xiaoqiu's interest also rose. At this moment, he even forgot about the hidden dangers of the young demon.

"Mu Feihuang, Huotong Xia Dantian has been through the disaster, and the results are good." Daliang continued to introduce.

Mu Feihuang smiled slightly. Ever since Xiaoqiu discovered the whistleblower, he had become less talkative and more honest.

"Guan Jinwu and Zhao Dayi, Huotongxia Dantian Earth Tribulation has not yet been completed, and they have surpassed the average disciples, at least better than me." Daliang sighed, Guan and Zhao laughed, they were quite satisfied with their results,

He has decided to stay at Yangshen Peak to continue practicing and strive to enter Laozu Peak within the next two years.

"Shen Tongyou and Shen Xiuming, a pair of brothers in distress, managed to open up seven orifices. They did not bring glory to Yelin Town, but it is not a shame, right? You must remember that in the same year, there were more than 140 people, and there were more than 50 people who were not as good as others. Here are the two of us." Daliang said and smiled sheepishly, raising his hand to scratch the back of his head.

Shen Tongyou blushed and shouted: "I want to stay at Yangshen Peak, and next year I will be able to clear the three fields!"

Daliang sighed again, "Whether we go to Laozu Peak or stay at Yangshen Peak, we are all from Yelin Town. No relatives are gone, and we are just one family. Now no one can say that the demons in Yelin Town are You are just lucky. You are lucky to have Taoism. Is it also lucky to practice faster?”

"No!" Several teenagers shouted at the same time.

"You will all be Pangshan Taoist priests from now on, and you may be able to become the first one or something, but I can't do it. I am not born to practice. I have tried hard but failed. I am very satisfied if I can open the seven orifices." Daliang didn't. Fang Fang didn't want to think of his younger brother. If Erliang was still here, his cultivation achievements would definitely be among the best. He held back his words, but his voice was a little choked, "I'm going to Zhiyong Institute to be an ordinary person, but I won't forget you. No matter where I go from now on." , I would tell people I know, 'I have a group of brothers, and I also have a sister who is a Taoist priest from Pangshan. Please don't mess with me.'"

Everyone laughed at first, and I don't know who started it, but suddenly they all started crying. Daliang cried especially hard, but he still refrained from saying his brother's name.

In the end, Daliang was the first to stop crying, jumped off the boulder, took the arms of Xiaoqiu and Shen Hao, and came to Fangfang, "You three are going to Laozu Peak. Brother Xiaoqiu is from the Forbidden Secret Department. Shen Hao is from the Discipline Department and Fangfang is from the Chanting Department. I know there must be more rules there, but I hope you can see each other more often and don't get into trouble. "

The three of them nodded solemnly, with tears still shining in Fangfang's eyes.

Daliang pushed Xiaoqiu towards Fangfang, pulled Shen Hao aside, and said seriously: "But don't see her too often."

"I'm afraid of delaying your practice, and I'm only going to take care of it this time. I won't have the chance to take care of it in the future." Daliang said with a smile.

Shen Hao glanced at Xiaoqiu and Fangfang who were whispering, and said helplessly: "It's the two of them who see each other too often."

"Although they are not married, they have the status of husband and wife, so of course they can see each other all the time. It would be better to see them every day."

Shen Hao curled his lips, "Mortal ties have to be cut off, and moral ties don't last long. You still want them to... forget it, it's none of your business, and it's none of my business either."

The party in Yelin Town was over, and the farewell mood at Yangshen Peak continued. The only ones who remained indifferent were the Taoist disciples. For Shen Ji, nothing had changed. Only once, he walked to the small school before the concentration class. In front of Qiu, he showed Taoist courtesy and spoke to Xiaoqiu for the first time since his apology more than two years ago, "Fellow Taoist Mu Xingqiu, I hope to see you in the Five Elements Department."

"We will meet again, not necessarily Wuxingke." Xiaoqiu said calmly. He had never forgotten Erliang's death, but he identified his enemy as Shen Geng and would not transfer it to anyone else.

In two years, Shen Geng will finish thinking about his mistakes.

After Shen Ji left, Daliang whispered: "Hypocritical guy, he wants you to enter the Forbidden Secret Department, so that he will be selected in the first round of the Five Elements Department. I heard that he only recognizes the Five Elements Department, and is even willing to be selected in the second round. ”

Xiaoqiu hesitated again. He liked the Five Elements Department and the life of slaying demons. The most important thing was that Shen Jixing, the leader of the Five Elements Department, seemed to be a well-spoken Taoist priest who would not easily use mind control techniques on his disciples.

Young demons are still a big worry for Xiaoqiu.

But he had already made a promise and could not change his words. Lin Sa liked this disciple very much. Yang Baozhen did not take special care of his biological son, but it was well known that Lin Dujiao preferred Mu Xiangqiu.

In the last half month, the Five Elements Department still didn't give up the fight for Xiaoqiu. For the first time, Yang Baozhen said a few more words to the young man, "You are a very smart disciple, but you are not suitable for the Forbidden Secret Department." Her voice was very Sincerely, Xiaoqiu could hardly believe that this was Yang Dujiao.

"The Forbidden Secret Department does know the demon species best, but they are only doing research, not face-to-face fighting. Even if one day you find a way to completely eliminate the demon species, it will be the Taoist priests of the Five Elements Department who implement this method." Yang Baozhen added for no reason. , "Li Yuechi died in the hands of the devil."

"I'm not a person who goes back on my word." Xiaoqiu said that although she was very sorry that she couldn't enter the Five Elements Department, being able to keep a distance from the Shen family was a kind of compensation.

"Go back on your word? Yes, everyone doesn't like people who go back on their word." Yang Baozhen finally gave up persuading her, but her final tone was somewhat meaningful.

Sun Yulu, the tutor of Luanjing Mountain, did not participate in the fight, but once in class, she said to Xiaoqiu inexplicably, "No matter what, you are welcome in Luanjing Mountain."

Xiaoqiu knew that Luanjing Mountain would never welcome the young devil. He was at his wits end and was even ready to confess the truth to the chief as soon as he entered the Forbidden Secret Department. Zuo Liuying had once had the experience of fantasizing about his wife, maybe Can understand his situation.

Therefore, w. .cWhen the apprenticeship selection finally began, Xiaoqiu's feeling of relief was stronger than anyone else's.

The disciple selection ceremony has been affecting the lives of the disciples since the beginning of the year, but the whole process is very simple. Nearly two hundred disciples of three years and above gathered in Sizu Hall that afternoon, sitting on futons, facing the huge Bronze bell.

More than a dozen Tujiao were lined up in a row. Lin Sa was the presiding officer. He first led the disciples to recite the Sutra of Remembrance of the Ancestors, then picked up a wooden hammer with a very long handle and knocked lightly on the copper bell.

The bell sounded low, reverberating in the Sizu Hall. Suddenly, a human figure appeared on the bell body like a mirror. Pangshan Grandmaster Ning Qiwei sat upright, recited the Ten Commandments of Disciples, and then disappeared.

Lin Sa announced the beginning of the selection of disciples, picked up the wooden hammer and struck the clock again.

The first ranked one this year is the Forbidden Secret Department. The image of the first Zuo Liuying appeared on Zhong. Most of the disciples saw him for the first time. Although they had heard about him for a long time, they were still surprised by the young appearance, but they didn't dare Open your mouth to discuss.

Facing Tongzhong, Xiaoqiu rehearsed in advance how to confess to the leader, and found that this was a very difficult thing. He was still wary of Zuo Liuying, and it did not diminish at all.

Zuo Liuying's eyes were lowered, as if he was extremely unhappy with this selection. After waiting for a while, a female voice came from an invisible place behind him:

"Qin Lingshuang."

Lin Sa, who was holding a long-handled wooden hammer, was stunned. Fangfang and Xiaoqiu, who were sitting on the futon, were stunned. All the disciples were stunned. The disciple chosen by the Forbidden Secret Department was obviously Mu Xingqiu, how could he call another one? Name?
