Chapter 25: The Outer Gate
Last night, Feng Yun and Feng Yanli, who had packed their luggage, chatted for half a night, and the conversation was naturally not serious, most of them were young people bragging.
As soon as they got up and after eating, Feng Yun, who was carrying his luggage, and Feng Yanli, who was going to practice in the morning, waved their hands to each other.
"The Sprinkle family will go up the mountain first and wait for you." Feng Yun made a heroic back as he said and left it to Feng Yanli, the words of farewell were almost said last night, and there was nothing to grind at this time, just go.
"I'll be there then!" With that, both of them laughed.
Feng Yun came to the Qingzhong Hall and saw Luo Geng.
Luo Geng still had that kind smile: "But are you ready?" ”
"Yes."
"Then I'll do it."
Luo Geng took Feng Yun to the mountain road when he first came here, "This side is actually a small road, and over there is the real way to enter the mountain of my Lingtai Sect." ”
The two of them had less time to walk for a stick of incense, and then they came to the foot of another mountain.
"This is it." As Luo Geng signaled, Feng Yun looked up along the stairs, and a stone staircase about two zhang wide led all the way to the mountain.
"This stone staircase alone should be a hundred feet high, and it is difficult for ordinary people to go to the top of the mountain just by going to the top." Feng Yun said secretly in his heart.
Luo Geng walked up step by step, and Feng Yun saw that the disciples on duty on both sides did not react, so he also followed behind Luo Geng. In the previous life, when he was in the Xianyu Sect, the status of the inner disciple was not far from that of the deacon, but when Senior Brother Zhang took him to the mountain road of the registered disciple, the disciple on duty would also greet Senior Brother Zhang, could it be that Senior Brother Zhang's status was higher than that of Deacon Luo, Feng Yun guessed in his heart.
Luo Geng naturally didn't know what Feng Yun was thinking, so he just smiled and introduced him to the Lingtai Sect: "My Lingtai Sect is now in charge of the fourth generation of the first Ding Sect, and it has been inherited for more than 10,000 years. The rules of the sect are not strict, but there are only four that cannot be violated. Saying this, Luo Geng's expression became solemn.
"First, don't betray the sect! Second, don't deceive teachers and destroy ancestors! Third, don't kill your fellow disciples! Fourth, don't collude with evil ways! With the above four rules, the offender will be sentenced to five thunderbolts and death! In order to let every disciple who entered the sect firmly remember these four taboos, Luo Geng deliberately added the power of divine consciousness to his voice, which was also his duty as a deacon.
"The disciple remembered."
Seeing Feng Yun answer seriously, Luo Geng's smile reappeared, and he continued to introduce with a slight bow.
Luo Geng was a cultivator of the One Realm, and Feng Yun walked even more refining his body, and the two of them did not stop breathing, and it didn't take long to finish the stone stairs.
"This is the Lingtai Sect."
Feng Yun looked at the scene in front of him, the huge square was paved with black and white stone bricks, building a beautiful pattern, many disciples walked through it, and there were more treasure halls on the mountain in the distance, and the eaves and pavilions were not like the world. This scene reminded him of the Immortal Feather Sect, although the Immortal Feather Sect was not as prosperous as the Lingtai Sect, but it was also such an out-of-the-world scene.
Seeing that Feng Yun was stunned, Luo even thought that he was stunned by this beautiful scenery, but also, if Feng Yun was really just an ordinary kid from Longyan Kingdom, he would definitely be impressed by the beautiful scenery in front of him.
"Let's go when we've seen enough." Luo Geng's words brought Feng Yun back to his senses.
The two walked through the square, and Luo Geng pointed forward and said, "This hall is called Songying Palace, and it is a place to entertain guests who come to visit my Lingtai Sect. The main hall higher on the mountain behind is the Chaochen Palace, which is a place to deal with the affairs of the sect, and is now in charge of your senior brother Zhang Shi's master. After that, Luo looked at Feng Yun and smiled slightly.
Although Feng Yun wanted to say that his connection with Senior Brother Zhang was not so close, he had no choice but to take advantage of it a month ago, so he had to smile and show reverence.
Luo Geng also stopped, and continued: "This is where we are going now, and ordinary disciples rarely go to the Chaochen Palace, unless there is something to go to the sect. If you can get the qualification of an inner disciple in the future, you will also have to hold a ceremony there. ”
Hearing this, Feng Yun was a little curious, and asked, "Deacon Luo, what are the requirements for becoming an inner disciple?" ”
Luo Geng replied as he walked: "The inner disciple is either very talented and attracts the attention of the elders to accept him as a personal disciple, or he wins the ranking in the selection competition and automatically becomes an inner disciple, even if there is no elder who takes a fancy to it, he can also choose a high-level exercise in the Sutra Building to continue to cultivate." Until now, the people who have been able to compete for a place in the selection competition are at least the monks of the One Realm. ”
I don't know if Zhang Shi has told Feng Yun about the cultivation realm, so Luo Geng explained carefully: "The registered disciple opens up the meridians of the whole body to build the foundation, followed by Qi refining, Jindan, Guiyi, Yuanying, out-of-body and Creation Realm, and then ascends to become an immortal." ”
"Although the old man doesn't know about refining the body, I heard that you need to practice to the Whale Binding Realm to compete with the Unified Realm of Qi refining, so you should work hard."
"The disciples in the sect will often go to three places, one is the Danding Hall for refining pills in the sect, the second is the Sutra Building that can be exchanged for exercises and spells mentioned earlier, and the third is the Hall of Rewards and Punishments, which will be explained to you in detail later." The two of them were walking on the mountain road, and Luo Geng suddenly raised his hand and pointed to a large hall on another mountain in the distance: "Look, the one on the mountain over there is the Danding Palace." If you want to buy or refine pills in the future, you can go there. ”
Saying that, the two of them had already arrived at the Chaochen Palace.
As soon as Luo Geng walked into the main hall, he heard a voice from the side: "Isn't this Brother Luo, but you have brought in a new disciple?" ”
The two looked in the direction from which the voice came and saw a middle-aged man with a beard walking towards them.
Luo Geng smiled and bowed his hand, stepped forward and said, "Haha, it turns out that Brother Ji is on duty today." Feng Yun, let me introduce to you, this is Deacon Ji, one of the deacons on duty in this morning hall. ”
Ji Wenhao looked at Feng Yun and said strangely: "Looking at Brother Luo like this, could it be that this white-headed boy has a great background?" ”
Seeing that Ji Wenhao's face was strange, he didn't explain, raised his hand and took out Feng Yun's document from the treasure bag on his waist and handed it to Ji Wenhao: "I sent him here this time, his name is Feng Yun, he was a registered disciple before, and he came here today to become an outer disciple." ”
Ji Wenhao saw that Luo Geng's smile was mysterious, and he couldn't help but take Feng Yun's document and look at it, the document was not long, except for the information filled in by Zhang Shi at the beginning, there was only Feng Yun's performance when he was a named disciple. After a few breaths, Ji Wenhao raised his head and glanced at Luo Geng, and the two laughed in unison, tacitly.
He is the deacon of the Chaochen Palace, and the biggest one on his head is naturally Zhang Shi's master who is in charge of the Chaochen Palace, since Zhang Shi brought him into the door, he is naturally his own person, as for Feng Yun's qualifications, whether he is refining qi or refining his body, how much does it have to do with these little people.
Ji Wenhao glanced at Feng Yun's figure, took the document to the apse, and came out with a small package after a while.
"Here are your two sets of disciple clothes, you must wear disciple clothes when you are inside the door. There are also identity tokens and house tokens, don't lose the identity token, it's best to carry it with you, the transaction of merit points must rely on it, otherwise you will have to go through penalties before you can re-apply. I've chosen a cottage for you, and you can find your place by the number on the house token. After speaking, he handed the package and two tokens to Feng Yun.
With Luo Geng's help, Feng Yun cut the fingers of his left hand and dropped a drop of blood on each of the two tokens.
"Brother Ji, everything is done, then I will take him to leave first."
"Go, go, Brother Luo will come to me for tea when he is free." Ji Wenhao knew that Feng Yun had just entered the sect and there were many things waiting for him, so he didn't stay long.
The two left the Chaochen Palace, and Luo Geng continued to introduce Feng Yun: "After that, we will go to the Hall of Rewards and Punishments, most of the transactions in the sect are completed with merit points, and these merit points can be obtained by completing the tasks assigned by the sect, or they can be exchanged for magic weapons or some heavenly and earthly treasures, you will understand later, and the place to receive tasks and exchange merit points is the Hall of Rewards and Punishments." You can also get five Qi Nourishing Pills there every month, don't miss it. ”
After a pause, Luo Gengcai reminded again: "Also, outer disciples must hand in ten merit points every month, otherwise they will be punished, you have to remember it." However, each new disciple gets fifty merit points in their identity tokens, and after exchanging them for a handful of weapons and a book of cultivation exercises, there should be a surplus. If you, Senior Brother Zhang, have prepared the exercises for you, then you don't have to worry about the first two months. ”
The two of them made their way to the Hall of Reward and Punishment.
Luo Geng obviously had a general relationship with the deacon here, and just said officially: "This is a new disciple, I will bring him to receive merit points and pills, and then choose a weapon." ”
The deacon took Feng Yun's identity token, summoned a disciple on duty, and said, "Take him to choose a weapon." ”
Feng Yun was taken to a side hall, which was full of all kinds of weapons, mostly swords.
Feng Yun's eyesight is not bad, and he can see that this place is basically a low-grade spiritual weapon.
"What weapon do you want to choose?" The disciple asked casually.
"Senior brother, I want to choose a knife."
The disciple on duty didn't say much, and led him to the place where the knife was placed. Feng Yun used swords in his previous life, and in order to cover up, he decided not to practice swordsmanship anymore. Of course, there is another reason that the soldiers of the Yinyan Army basically use Yanling knives.
"The knives are all here, you can choose for yourself." The disciple still had an expression of laziness to speak, but Feng Yun didn't mind.
After making sure that there was only the disciple on duty here, Feng Yun picked up a good-looking Yanling knife, his divine sense poked out of his hand, "examined" the knife in his hand, and changed several times in a row, just when the disciple on duty was about to get impatient, Feng Yun smiled and said, "Senior brother, I have chosen." ”
The two returned to the main hall, Feng Yun was satisfied with the selected knife in his arms, which young man didn't want to have a weapon of his own.
The deacon glanced at the knife in Feng Yun's arms, turned around and placed Feng Yun's identity token on a huge piece of jade, only to see several points of light on the jade flowing from the jade into the token.
After that, the deacon handed the token and a porcelain vase to Feng Yun and said, "There are ten merit points for a low-grade spirit knife, and there are forty merit points left." There are also five Qi Nourishing Pills. ”
Feng Yun nodded, took the token and the porcelain vase, and carefully put it into his arms.
Luo Geng took Feng Yun out of the main hall.
After walking for a while, Luo Gengcai said softly: "The Reward and Punishment Hall and the Chaochen Hall do not deal with each other. ”
Feng Yun looked at Luo Geng after hearing this, but found that Luo Geng looked like nothing had happened.
