Ma Xiujun, who was walking in front, suddenly paused.
I realized that I had said something wrong, Ma Xiujun stopped, turned his head and said kindly: "I am 117 years old this year, I am probably older than your grandfather, so don't call me big brother."
117 years old! !
Just kidding! He looks like a young man of twenty-two or three-year-old! My mouth was so wide open that the chin hook fell off! I hurriedly fixed the hook. Seeing my shocked appearance, Ma Xiujun smiled kindly: "It's nothing to be surprised about. I'm still young. Let me tell you about the Huanyu Pavilion. In fact, there are many people here. At least, there are only 275. If you count you, there are 276. There are eight leaders here, whose code names are Huang, Wang, Gong, Hou, Qing, Chen, Ling, and Min. Ma Jun."
Huang, Wang, Duke, Hou, Qing, Minister, Ling, Min! I have heard of this from Patriarch Xu before, but I never thought that Ma Xiujun... Ma Jun is actually one of the eight chiefs, no wonder his strength is so strong, my luck is a bit too good, I just ran into a phantom rain The leader of the pavilion, and the other party seems to be a good person, this is unscientific, the head is Chi Yaming!
I respectfully said: "Then I will call you 'Wang' Zun just like those two people just now."
"En." Ma Jun nodded, continued to walk forward, and asked as he walked, "Who did you learn your fire control ability from?"
I answered truthfully: "My master, his name is Niu Jintao, and he is also a Taoist priest. I learned my ability to control fire from my master."
"Niu Jintao... I've never heard of such a number one person. Where is your master?"
"My master passed away within a year."
Ma Xiujun said with a little regret: "Since you already have a teacher, you can't change to my disciple, so you can't be a disciple of the inner sect, but you have to enter the outer sect. In terms of identity, the disciples of the inner sect and the outer sect There are differences among disciples, to give the simplest example, inner disciples do not need to guard the teleportation array and have a certain degree of freedom, while outer disciples have to do a lot of things and their freedom is restricted."
"Freedom is restricted?!" I frowned slightly.
"Huanyu Pavilion is a secret organization. If all the disciples were allowed to go out freely, Huanyu Pavilion would no longer be a secret."
I took out my mobile phone and looked at it, and found that there was no signal on the mobile phone! I thought my fortune was coming, but I didn't expect that although I joined the Huanyu Pavilion, it was tantamount to being put under house arrest in disguise! I haven't had time to inform my parents and sister Xiaoling, because it was very late last night, they had already gone to bed, and it was too early this morning, they haven't woken up yet, so I didn't disturb them, I wanted to be on the train The station or airport notified them, but I didn't expect that it would be too late to notify them now.
Ma Xiujun didn't seem to know my little tricks, and he still said while walking: "Although the freedom of outer sect disciples is restricted, Huanyu Pavilion is not a prison. There is freedom, but you have to fight for it yourself. There is a martial arts competition in the outer sect every six months. The three can go out for a month. Of course, during the time out, you must not reveal the secrets of the Magic Rain Pavilion, otherwise you will be arrested and returned to the Magic Rain Pavilion, and you will not be allowed to leave half a step for life. The time for the competition is June 1st and December 1st every year , Disciples who have never been able to win can ask for half a month of leave every three years. This is done to avoid the leak of the news of Huanyu Pavilion, and to speed up the cultivation speed of the outer disciples. I am very optimistic about you and want to be free You have to fight for the quota yourself, there will be no pie in the sky."
This sentence is right, there will be no pies in the sky. Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Although the freedom is restricted, it can make people practice crazily, just for the three places of freedom. Huanyu Pavilion has a total of 276 people, excluding the eight leaders, there are still 268 people, so how many disciples are there in the outer sect? So I asked: "Excuse me, 'Wang' Zun, how many disciples are there in the outer sect of Huanyu Pavilion?"
"There are a total of 26 disciples in the inner sect."
268 minus 26, that is to say, there are 242 people in the outer sect, vying for 3 places... Judging from the strength of the two people just now, I guess my strength in the outer sect is also at the bottom. , but I can't get a quota, and I have to wait at least three years before I can go out. During this period, I can't communicate with the outside world. My parents are not worried about me!
Exit the Magic Rain Pavilion
I have already joined now, according to the system of Huanyu Pavilion, it might not be so easy to quit, and if I quit, Patriarch Xu has no way to explain it.
I only now know why Patriarch Xu's attitude towards me suddenly changed last time, he must have regarded me as an inner disciple of the Huanyu Pavilion! Because only inner disciples have freedom, and I used to stay in Qiling City almost all year round, yes, he must know the system of Huanyu Pavilion!
I have no choice now, so it's better to come here and be safe. Instead of wasting time and regretting, it's better to think about how to get those three places.
Ma Jun said: "If you are good enough, I will promote you, work hard, and I will take you to the outer gate to report first." As he said, Ma Jun grabbed my arm, and I felt that I was caught by a The strength lifted up, and then the surrounding scenery retreated quickly, and everything became blurred. Moving so fast, the wind blew me so hard that I couldn't open my eyes. It lasted for tens of seconds, and we finally stopped, and my hair was already covered. It blew up.
I didn't have time to tidy my hair, but looked at the surrounding scenery. There was a large courtyard in front of us, and there was a plaque above the entrance of the courtyard: Outer Gate.
We walked into the yard. There were twenty or thirty people in the yard. When they saw us coming in, they all knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully: "Greetings to 'Wang' Zun."
Ma Jun said kindly: "Everyone get up."
A fat middle-aged man hurried out and said respectfully: "The 'Wang' is here, please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar."
"It's okay, I brought a child and asked him to join the outer sect. You go through the relevant procedures for him, and then explain to him the precautions. Don't give him special treatment just because I brought him." Said Then, Ma Jun patted me on the shoulder: "Work hard, I hope you can get the quota in four months, I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
I didn't come here to raise my uncle, so I don't need special treatment! I clasped my fists together: "Wang Zun, go slowly."
Ma Jun walked out, and everyone said in unison again: "Wang Zun, go slowly."
Unexpectedly, the interior of Huanyu Pavilion is also very complicated. I thought Ma Jun would cover me, but now it seems that everything depends on myself.
After Ma Jun left, many people in the courtyard cast their gazes on me. Their gazes were so sharp that I felt uncomfortable. The fat middle-aged man said, "Little brother, Wang Zun takes you very seriously. Come on with me." Come in, register for you, and tell me the precautions by the way."
The architectural style here is very similar to that of ancient times. The doors and windows are all made of wood, and the window paper is pasted, which is the kind of thing that can be broken in a movie. However, the ancient window paper is soaked in oil to prevent water and rain.
I walked into the main hall with him, and he asked me to sit down, and then said: "My name is Sun Yongfu, and I am the manager of the outer sect. I manage the disciples of the outer sect. What's your name, little brother? Where do you live? How old are you? Are you married? Yes." What ability? Tell me in detail, the information of each outer disciple must be recorded in detail."
I answered these questions truthfully, and Sun Yongfu said, "Okay, this is for you." Then, a file bag appeared out of thin air in Sun Yongfu's hand, and there were several photos and a book in it. Said: "There are photos of the eight leaders of the Huanyu Pavilion here. When you see them in the future, you must salute them. That book is the precautions and maps of the Huanyu Pavilion. It shows which places you can go and which places you can't. Go. In addition, we must gather here on the 1st of every month, and the rest of the time is free to move around."
"Well, where do I live then?" I asked politely.
Sun Yongfu said: "The Outer Sect does not provide accommodation. There are marks on the map. The twelve nearby mountains are the range of activities of the Outer Sect disciples. You can build houses, dig a hole or dig a cave at will. Of course, if you feel that you If you are strong enough, you can also rob other people's houses, but there is a premise, you can fight, but you can't kill people, and you can't maim the other party."
It's actually... not providing a place to live, and you can also rob other people's houses, what a strange rule.
Sun Yongfu said: "Other precautions are in that book. You can understand it after reading it yourself, but I want to emphasize three of them. First, you must not leave the scope of activities of outer disciples. Second, you must not kill people." , You can’t maim others. Third, come here to report at 5 o’clock in the morning on the first of every month. Well, the precautions are roughly like this. As a newcomer, you can make a request, and I will try my best to meet it.”
I thought about it and asked, "Can I write a letter and ask someone to post it for me?"
"This won't work." Sun Yongfu shook his head.
I said with a little disappointment: "Then give me some thin clothes. I wear too much and it's very hot."
Sun Yongfu smiled: "Your request is not high." A cardboard box appeared out of nowhere in his hand, and he handed it to me. I opened it, and there were many black and white Go pieces in it. He said: "Go to the 'Cangyi Pavilion' to get it yourself, just give the black chess pieces to the person in charge over there, and each black chess piece can get a set of clothes. A set of clothes refers to a jacket, a pair of pants, and a pair of clothes. Shoes, a pair of underwear, a pair of socks."
"Then, what's the use of the white pieces?" I asked while counting the pieces.
"Read the book yourself, the answer is in the book, but I want to remind you, you must keep this chess piece safe! I will give you three hours to read the book here, and then you have to leave. I have something to do, so I will go first." , Sun Yongfu stood up, moved his fat body and walked out...
