Being favored by the Patriarch is the most direct demonstration of a disciple's talent. But Wei Yuan stood for a long time, watching five or six groups of people go in, and only one person received the gift.
At this time, Zhang Sheng was standing in the distance, talking to Sun Yu. According to regulations, he could only stand ten feet away from the main hall, with the elders of the new disciples.
Zhang Sheng glanced at the number of new disciples and said: "There are indeed more new disciples this year."
"Seventeen states have taken in a total of 150 people, less than ten from each state, which is not too many."
"There were only eighty-four people in my class," Zhang Sheng said.
Sun Yu said: "Zhenjun Yanshi's idea is to open the gates of the mountain widely and teach everyone without distinction. In my opinion, it is not necessarily a bad thing to accept more disciples."
"I hope so."
At this time, a new group of disciples entered, and the statue of the Patriarch changed again. A bit of light flew out of the jade crown on the Patriarch's head and entered the body of a girl. An old man not far away suddenly became ecstatic and laughed: "Okay, okay, okay,
This gift is supreme! I, the Jiao family, have hope for prosperity! The ancestors opened their eyes, the ancestors opened their eyes!"
The old man was crying and laughing, which attracted everyone's attention. At that moment, someone felt strange and asked his companions: "Do you know what this crown represents?"
The man said: "Of course I don't know!"
"Although the crown is a treasure, it is neither the original body of the founder nor an important killing treasure like the fairy sword. This thing is just like clothes, it is a daily utensil, mainly exquisite. Generally, those who have been given this gift can refine weapons, treasures, and assist in Taoism.
It’s easy to improve on everything. In other words, when her fellow disciples charge into battle in the future, she can help from behind and repair a magic weapon or something."
After the man finished speaking in a weird manner, the old man's face turned blue and red, and he said loudly: "No matter what it is, it is a gift from the ancestor! It is better than nothing!"
The man in Yin Yang Wei Qi immediately became angry and shouted: "What did you say? My baby hasn't gone in yet, how dare you say it's not there?"
The old man pointed towards the main hall and said, "Isn't it time to go in?"
Among this group of children was the child of the yin-yang man. However, until the worship was completed, there was no movement at the statue of the ancestor. The yin-yang man was ashamed and annoyed, and was ridiculed repeatedly by the old man. He suddenly lost his composure and walked away in a hurry.
At this time, I heard the Taoist priest singing from a distance: "Wei Yuan of Fengyuan County in Yongzhou, Baoyun of Fengyuan County, Xiaoyu of Fengyuan County,... Yan Ming of Fengyuan County."
When these names were read out, there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Why are there so many from Feng Yuanjun?"
"That's right, our Ganzhou only accepts five new disciples in one state, while one county in Ganzhou only accepts six!"
An old man in civilian clothes suddenly took a step forward and said loudly: "Our Chuzhou is the largest state in the world, and there are only eight places. In the remote place of Yongzhou, there are six people in one county. If you say there is no trick, I will not believe it for the first time.
! Taichu Palace, as an Immortal Sect, acts so unfairly, why should we convince the public?! I don’t accept it!”
The old man shouted, which immediately attracted many people's response. Some people from Yongzhou even said: "Yongzhou has nine counties, and the other eight counties combined only accepted one. Why can Fengyuan County have six places?"
The Taoist priest called for silence several times, but the commotion in the crowd grew louder and louder. The old man at the head of the ceremony even jumped on his feet and shouted for injustice. He kept saying that his great grandson was almost not hired. If Taichu Palace really acted fairly
, we should allocate the quota from Feng Yuan County to Chuzhou and let his eldest grandson also enter the Taichu Palace.
Zhang Sheng looked to the left and right and saw the burly man and the old man from the Bao family. The old man looked blank, as if nothing in the world could change his expression, while the burly man folded his arms and sneered. When he saw Zhang Sheng looking over, he simply walked over.
, said: "Why don't you go over and have a theory?"
Zhang Sheng said calmly: "This person is coming for you high-ranking families. What does it have to do with me? How can your Xiao family allow someone to be so arrogant?"
The burly man grinned and said: "This is a matter of Taichu Palace. If he calls our Xiao family by name, I will take action. But I don't dare to do it for him."
The burly man here was unmoved, and the Taoist priests who were in charge of the ceremony were all young and inexperienced. They were all a little panicked at this time, trying to persuade and stop him. But when the old man saw this, he made a fuss even more fierce, and just shouted for fairness.
.Several young Taoists had sweat on their foreheads and were at a loss as to what to do.
At this time, a Taoist priest suddenly appeared in the square. As soon as he appeared, a huge and ferocious horned dragon appeared above his head. Invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire square, and everyone below the Dharma image was unable to move. Only then did the chaos subside.
All the Taoist priests immediately saluted and said, "I have seen Master Tengqiu!"
The Taoist said coldly: "What's the fuss about?"
At that moment, a young Taoist priest told what happened. After hearing this, the real person's face became ugly, and the invisible pressure suddenly increased by three points. The old man stood frozen on the spot, as if he was suppressed by a mountain, unable to move or speak.
, with a face full of panic.
Master Tengqiu scolded: "The number of disciples to be recruited in each state is decided by the true kings. How can you allow you to make unreasonable opinions! If you dare to cause trouble in front of the Patriarch's Hall, punishment is essential."
The Taoist stretched out his hand to grasp, and there was a long thunder whip in his hand, and he hit the old man on the head with the whip!
A screen immediately appeared above the old man's head. There was a plum tree on the screen, which was full of flowers. When the whip came down, the screen immediately cracked, and the plum blossoms fell like rain. In the blink of an eye, there were only a few left. The old man received a blow.
Whip, he immediately slumped down and sat down. Most of his hair turned white in an instant, and the wrinkles on his face became deeper, as if he had aged by more than ten years.
Many people in the audience immediately took a breath of cold air. Master Tengqiu's whip spread, scattering a lot of the old man's Taoism, at least wiping out the old man's decades of practice.
Master Tengqiu took away the thunder whip and said: "This whip is just a small punishment. For the sake of your child's young age and ignorance, I will not be dismissed for the time being. I will be reduced to a registered disciple and practice with others in the palace to observe."
Aftereffects.”
The old man was speechless and just vomited blood. He was carried down by his family disciples.
After dealing with the incident, Master Tengqiu did not leave. He just stood in the square and watched the new disciples enter the temple to worship their ancestor.
Sun Yu suddenly sighed and said softly: "That man just wanted to fight for opportunities for future generations, but he used the wrong method, and ended up blocking his own path. He originally had a glimmer of hope of cultivating the Dharma.
"
Someone next to him said: "These monks from small families have little qualifications and have to fight for everything. They are always fighting, fighting everywhere, and they are used to fighting. In the end, the fight reaches the top of Taichu Palace. In fact, one of the younger generations entered
For this kind of family, Taichu Palace is like a fish leaping over the dragon's gate. This is not enough, it is really greedy."
At this time, Wei Yuan followed the guidance of the Taoist priest and walked into the Patriarch's Hall. In front of the statue of the Patriarch, which was dozens of feet high, both the new disciples and the Taoist priest were as small as ants.
Under the guidance of the Taoist priest, Wei Yuan knelt on the futon in front of the statue of the Patriarch and began to worship. After seven worships, Wei Yuan silently chanted the sacrificial inscriptions. At this time, he felt as if a gaze fell from an infinite height, and in an instant he was
It looked transparent inside and out.
For a moment, Wei Yuan felt as if his consciousness had been pulled out of his body and rose to an infinite height. The Patriarch's Hall below became the size of a palm. But that gaze was still looking down at Wei Yuan from a higher place. Wei Yuan could not stand at all.
You can't even feel where your eyes are coming from.
Wei Yuan suddenly panicked, and when he looked around, he saw nothing.
As the gaze from above fell on him, the energy in Wei Yuan's body seemed to be stimulated and began to sprout. Then Wei Yuan felt an invisible object appear from above, standing opposite to where the gaze came from.
The invisible thing was indescribably huge, ancient and desolate, with no end in sight. It seemed to have some connection with Wei Yuan's luck, but the feeling of this connection was extremely vague, and Wei Yuan was not sure whether it was real or not.
.
At this moment, Wei Yuan's consciousness was hanging alone at a high place, sandwiched between two unknown beings high up, just like an ant standing between two mountains, even if it was crushed to death, no one would notice it.
No matter how hard he struggled, Wei Yuan couldn't move. He could only look at the figure in the hall below and kowtow again and again, as if the real world had nothing to do with him.
