Nanfeng stood up with his arms raised, looked around, and found that the sun had already set. A group of servants from the secular affairs hall were busy removing the wooden tables in the square. The students who had passed the reexamination and the students who had been confirmed by the real people were receiving Taoist robes, shoes and hats at the entrance of the hall. .
"Thank you, thank you," Nanfeng smiled and bowed to Zheng Xian, "By the way, congratulations."
Zheng Xian nodded shyly, turned around and went ahead, "Let's go quickly."
Nan Feng touched his face, shook his head to regain his senses, and took steps to follow.
After walking a few steps, I spotted a familiar figure, "Hey, Cao Meng, what are you doing?"
Cao Meng was moving the table. When he heard the sound, he turned around and smiled at Nanfeng, his smile was very forced.
Seeing Cao Meng's forced smile, Nanfeng walked towards him quickly and asked in a low voice when he got close, "What happened? Did Tian Chengzi regret taking you in?"
Cao Meng waved his hand hurriedly, "No, no."
"Then why are you moving the table here?" Nanfeng asked.
"I have nothing to do, so help me." Cao Meng replied.
"You don't have to do this anymore," Nanfeng pulled Cao Meng towards the main hall, "You are so unloyal, you didn't wake me up even though you knew I was asleep."
Cao Meng hesitated, reluctant to leave.
"No, something must have happened. Tell me quickly, what happened?" Nanfeng stopped.
"It's okay, it's okay," Cao Meng looked around timidly, "Master asked me to stay away from you in the future and not to talk to you casually."
Nan Feng frowned suddenly when he heard this. Tian Chengzi told Cao Meng that he should have told Cao Meng before he quarreled with Ling Yanzi, in order to prevent him from attracting others' attention. But at this time, he was more famous than Cao Meng, and the people who paid attention to him were more famous than Cao Meng. There should be more people paying attention to Cao Meng.
"I'm going to get busy first." Cao Meng broke free from Nanfeng's grasp and ran back to the square.
"Fuck, you're killing the donkey." Nanfeng cursed casually.
When Cao Meng heard Nan Feng scolding him, he turned around quickly. Seeing that Nan Feng didn't really scold him, he smiled awkwardly at Nan Feng, turned around and ran away.
Nanfeng shook his head helplessly and walked towards the main hall. There was a reason why he didn't drag Cao Meng by force. Even though he was a famous man now, if his identity was exposed, he would be the next to die. Stay away from Cao Meng, to Cao Meng Being fierce is also a good thing.
At this time, the students were queuing up to receive their robes, shoes and hats. Nanfeng walked over and stood at the end of the men's team. After standing still, he yawned again.
The student in front turned around when he heard the sound, and when he realized it was him, he hurriedly stepped aside to avoid it.
Nanfeng took a step forward and took his place, "Thank you, thank you very much."
When he thanked him, the person in front heard it again. That person was also an appointed student and had been disgusted by him before. When he turned around and realized it was him, he hurriedly got out of the way.
Nanfeng took another step forward. This time, the person in front of him was still an unofficial student, but that person just frowned at him and did not leave the team to dodge.
"Ahem..."
When the man heard that the sound was wrong, he was afraid that he would spit randomly, so he moved away. Nanfeng took another step forward, tilted his head and grinned at Zheng Xian, who was on the women's team.
"You look normal, why are you coughing and wheezing?" Zheng Xian asked.
"I'm scaring him to get closer to you." Nanfeng said with a smile.
Although Zheng Xian was not coy and stingy, she couldn't bear Nan Feng's straightforward show of kindness. Her face turned red, she tilted her head and looked away, and stopped talking to him.
Many people around him heard Nanfeng's previous words. Everyone looked at him in surprise when they saw him being so bold in public.
Nan Feng tilted his head and curled his lips, not taking it seriously. He had revealed it on purpose just now, in order to let everyone know that he had a crush on Zheng Xian, so that no one with a short eye could take advantage of her and get the good stuff first.
And he did achieve his goal. The students on the men's team were still secretly observing the girls on the side. At this time, no one dared to look at Zheng Xian anymore. They had seen Nanfeng quarreling with others and knew that he was a thorn. Son, he also knew that the three real people, including the headmaster, had taken a fancy to him, and no one would dare to snatch the woman he liked.
However, this made Zheng Xian feel very awkward. She kept tilting her head and looking eastward, never looking at him again.
Nanfeng knew that Zheng Xian was angry, but he wasn't worried. Once he got started, he had plenty of time to show off and please him. He was still young and couldn't do much, so he would take advantage first and wait until he grew up.
He also thought about whether Zheng Xian would be implicated if he was unlucky, but this thought just passed through his mind. Zheng Xian was different from Cao Meng. Cao Meng had no roots, but Zheng Xian's father was an imperial physician and was surrounded by people all day long. While the emperor was hanging around, most people didn't dare to touch Zheng Xian. Besides, if he became the headmaster one day, Zheng Xian would be the headmaster's wife, and she should share the joys and sorrows with her husband.
Most of the students queuing up were smiling, and Nanfeng was no exception. But others were smiling because they were happy to be selected for admission, while he was smiling because he was thinking about the beautiful things.
The items received by the students include two sets of summer blue robes, two sets of winter blue robes, two middle coats, two small coats, a yellow crown, a headscarf, two pairs of white cloth leggings and stockings, and two pairs of thin-soled light boots. In addition, there is a thick stack of Taoist classics.
After receiving the clothes and books, the etiquette Taoist began to recite the membership of the students, that is, which student is the disciple of which real person. Naturally, Nanfeng's name is not among them. Who his master is has not yet been determined.
After reading the list, things started to be handed out again, this time it was a fluorene board and several wooden seals. Having a master means you are a disciple, and a disciple is a Taoist priest. These things are used by Taoist priests.
Nanfeng didn't get anything because he didn't read Nanfeng's name, but he didn't have stage fright and went up to ask for one.
The apprenticeship ceremony was carried out separately, and the initiation ceremony was also held three days later. After the things were distributed, the students were taken to the lower hall.
Because there were too many things to hand out, every student was carrying big and small bags. Seeing Zheng Xian's hard work, Nanfeng wanted to lend a hand to help, but it was useless.
Nanfeng's actions earned many female team members the look-downs. Nanfeng curled his lips and tilted his head, and rolled his eyes back. Not every Taoist nun is so good-looking, and some are ugly. These few who looked at him were ugly. The root cause of looking at him is jealousy.
Hierarchy has been around since ancient times. Logically speaking, Taoist priests who have not yet been ordained can live in a room with five to ten people. However, the three head disciples, including Nan Feng, the undecided head disciple, all have a room each. The house is still the main house in Chaoyang, and the salary is higher than that of me and the Taoist priest Lu.
The students changed into Taoist robes from their rooms, then lined up and headed to the dining hall for dinner.
Taoist robes are divided into large and small sizes, the younger ones wear small ones, the older ones wear large ones, Nanfeng is half-large and not small, so they are divided into large sizes. They have slanted lapels and vertical buttons, and are extremely loose. They rub across the threshold, and the sleeves hang down to cover the hands. I am used to wearing short clothes, but I am not used to wearing Taoist robes. It feels very uncomfortable.
Taoist crowns are worn on regular occasions. Taoist priests usually wear turbans, and there are several people living in the same room. They can correct each other when wearing them. But he lives alone, and there is no one to help check. The turbans are tied incorrectly, and the hair is tied incorrectly. Qi, after leaving the house, many people looked at her with suspicion.
Because they missed the meal, when everyone rushed to the dining hall, other Taoists had already finished eating and left. The hundred or so people only occupied the southwest corner of the huge dining hall.
The dinner was very rich. It was yellow rice and there were two meat and two vegetarian dishes. You could choose what you wanted to eat. Others chose a little more rice and some vegetarian dishes. Nanfeng was different and served a plate full of mutton.
As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, and people with different identities always belong to different groups. The other two disciples brought the food and sat down with Nanfeng, trying to get to know him under the guise of getting acquainted. , after a meal, they all fell in love with Nanfeng, and the reason was simple. Nanfeng’s words were straightforward, vulgar, and not elegant, and his behavior also showed that he came from a poor family and did not have a good education. Like Nanfeng, Such people, even if they become disciples of the master, they will not be able to compete with them for the position of master in the future.
Nanfeng knew that the two of them were trying to figure out his bottom, but his mind was all on the food. The yellow rice that the Taoist priests ate was very fine, the chaff was ground very clean, there was no chaff at all, and the mutton was stewed very hot and smelly. Nothing at all, the smell of meat is fragrant. A meal like this would cost dozens of dollars outside. The Taiqing Sect was really rich and had much better food than the common people.
After dinner, everyone returned to their residence. Everyone had to go to see their master in the evening. Nanfeng didn't need to go, so he stayed in the house. Although the room was not very big, it was equipped with all the necessary utensils, including a toilet for wiping buttocks. Paper was prepared. He had long heard that Taoists used paper to wipe their butts, but he didn't expect it to be true. This thing is not cheap now. One copper coin can only buy half a dozen.
There was tea in the room, and tea was also a good thing. Nanfeng wanted to take a few sips, but after thinking about it, he decided not to drink. He had to take medicine, fearing that the tea would lose the potency of the medicine.
The elixir Tianqizi gave him was larger than a bean, light yellow, and tasteless. He took it with water, and he felt nothing after eating it.
After a tiring day during the day, Nanfeng went to bed early. The next morning, he got up to listen to the clock. He wanted to get up and harness his horse, but he was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he was no longer in the Secular Affairs Hall.
After waking up, Nanfeng got up, washed his face, went out, and went to the main hall for morning classes with other new Taoists...
