Chapter 45 Village
…
"Let's go, find the locals first and understand the situation before we talk."
Although he didn't know why he didn't land directly in the Turin Sect, Wu Xuan was relieved that he didn't have to face the power of a sect directly.
As for turning to the path of immortality, he is not in a hurry.
Martial arts are all sectarian, and those who practice martial arts are not very popular, so Wu Xuan must find an Immortal Sect to join and then seek transfer.
"Junior brother, I see there is a mountain stream over there. If you walk along it, you should be able to find people."
"Okay, senior brother, remember, Mo Yan said that we come from a blessed place."
"Let's just say... cousin relationship."
"Uh, no problem."
"Let's go and be more careful."
The two of them went down the mountain along the mountain stream without encountering any wild animals. They successfully arrived at a village at the foot of the mountain before nightfall.
There is a stone tablet standing at the door, engraved with the two characters "Zhuangcun".
Moreover, the houses are mainly made of bluestone and tiles, unlike ordinary rural areas which are built with loess and wood.
The sun was setting in the west, and several children were playing around under the willow tree at the entrance of the village.
When Zhao Zhen saw this, he took the initiative to move forward, took out the frosting candy from the bag and handed it to several children.
"My little friend, where are your adults? Can some elders come forward and tell me?"
The child was wearing crotchless pants, with a yellowish nose and a rosy face. He took the frosting hesitantly and said in a crisp voice.
"Uncle, where is the crippled grandpa! You can go find him."
"good."
After touching the child's two braids, they followed the direction pointed out and met the lame grandfather in a small bluestone courtyard surrounded by a fence.
He is indeed very old and carries a cane under his arm.
He was humming a little tune and feeding Ji Yin with millet husks, which showed that he was living a good life and was in a good mood.
"Old man, Zhao Zhenyi and my brother are passing by Zhuangcun. Is there a convenient place to spend the night?"
The old man had sharp ears and eyes. After looking back at the two of them, his eyes flashed, and large pieces of rice husks were sprinkled directly into the chicken farm. He quickly turned over with a stick and said with a smile.
"They are both foreigners."
Zhao Zhen looked at Wu Xuan and nodded humbly.
"Yes."
"Then you are here to learn from the Turin Cult, right?!"
Seemingly sensing their doubts, the old man quickly explained.
"Zhuang Village is very close to the Immortal Mountain of Turin Sect. It recruits a group of disciples every ten years and a large number of disciples every fifty years."
"The ten-year term is only for school-age children with excellent academic performance in the [Yan Kingdom]. The fifty-year general election is for the entire Qingzhou. Your accent doesn't sound like people from the Yan Kingdom."
"Recently, it happens to be another apprenticeship ceremony that happens once every 50 years, so I said this."
Wu Xuan was a little stunned.
According to the old man's words, it should be that the Turin Cult deliberately puts the maturity period of the best spiritual roots in fifty years and the time of accepting disciples together.
It is no coincidence that the newly formed spiritual seeds can be used on new disciples immediately.
As for the recruitment every ten years, why does Wu Xuan feel like recruiting cannon fodder to meet the daily losses of his disciples? No! Recruiting cultivation disciples!
The old man continued.
"The reason why our village is what it is today is because it has been home to many immortals from the Turin Sect. You can stay at my house. There will be about ten days until the grand ceremony is held."
"Then my two brothers will be disrespectful."
"come in."
During dinner time, Wu Xuan and Zhao Zhenyi almost accepted the attention of the whole village. They were extremely enthusiastic. Wu Xuan got several pieces of information from the conversation.
That is the entire spiritual world, known as the 3,600 states, and Qingzhou is just one of them. There are three relatively large cultivation sects.
[Turin Cult], [Corpse Sect], [Jindingmen]
There are many small sects and sects, which are divided into two sects: good and evil. As for the demonic sect, the villagers in Zhuang Village only know one [Blood Sect].
There are multiple mortal dynasties in Qingzhou, under the names of various sects. They send their disciples to garrison for a long time, and most of the human emperors are appointed by them.
A few days ago, a group of Qingzhou talents who were fond of the Turin Cult were heading from Zhuang Village to the Turin Cult Fairy Mountain.
Wu Xuan and others just missed it.
Moreover, in Zhuang Village, there are several families who have people practicing in the Turing Cult. The one with the highest cultivation level is said to have reached the realm of Zifu. Their houses are also very impressive and equipped with formations.
Wu Xuan took a special look and saw nothing.
While waiting for a sumptuous dinner, he deliberately stayed awake at night, using his perception ability at the martial sage level to pay close attention to the movements of the people in the village.
I found that they were really just passionate and had no intention of seeking wealth or murder.
This made Wu Xuan breathe a sigh of relief.
I roughly understand the survival concept of Zhuangcun. In the future, the immortals will receive courtesy and hospitality from them. After they achieve something, they will definitely take care of them.
A little bit of incense is not worth mentioning, but Zhuangcun also benefited a lot from the benefits that the "immortal" did casually.
The unspoken rules here are not difficult to understand. To put it into perspective, just like in the dynastic bureaucracy, fellow countrymen are a very important political factor.
Today I give you a push. If you achieve something tomorrow, you will definitely need to repay your favor. It is logical that forming a party is a normal thing.
There may be a Zhuang Party in the Turin Church, which is similar to the clan philosophy, but not that close.
besides.
Wu Xuan specifically inquired about the recruitment time of [Corpse Sect] and [Jinding Sect], and they found that they were roughly the same as the Turin Sect, but a little far away from him.
The area of Qingzhou is no less than the total area of the earth in previous lives. If you miss the recruitment time, you will have to wait ten years.
He didn't want to wait that long.
Since God's will is like this, it is not impossible to join the Turin Cult there. Unsurprisingly, King Wu Jiang Hao will also become a disciple of the Turin Cult.
Same class as him.
The next morning.
Wu Xuan discovered a very unique point. Zhuangcun seemed to have the habit of practicing martial arts.
Early on, there were children shouting and practicing boxing and kung fu in a bluestone square, and even meditating.
After asking the villagers, I suddenly learned that in a place like Zhuangcun, where children of school age can basically choose to practice martial arts, they don't call it that.
But [Enter the Tao Body Refining Technique]
It is paired with the inner energy method, which means that if these children are selected and the sect gives them spiritual roots, they can transform their inner energy into spiritual energy and gain more immortal cultivation.
The starting point is much higher than other people in the same class. This is using the internal energy method as a way to get ahead. With each additional genius, Zhuangcun's future becomes brighter.
I don’t blame them for doing this, maybe it was recommended by the Church of Turin?
If calculated this way, compared with these fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy, the probability of Zhao Zhenyi being selected is very slim!
Wu Xuan thought about this news and finally told him.
But the other party showed determination and said: People always have to give it a try to know whether they can do it.
I stayed for another day to learn more about Qingzhou.
On the third day, the two officially set off.
Zhao Zhen left a few pieces of gold he brought from home with the old man, asked for directions, and went straight to Turin to teach the fairy mountain.
What's interesting is that Zhuangcun also sent several warriors to take dozens of teenagers with them.
Chapter completed!
