Chapter 98 13 Disciples

Xia Jinyan held the handrail and stood in the moving subway.

As usual, passengers in the subway were playing with their mobile phones, and many were wearing headphones, immersed in their own worlds.

But what is different from usual is that whether they are watching short videos or reading articles, the content on the passengers’ mobile phones is surprisingly consistent—all reports about Seattle.

That mountain-like colossus holds up the world's twelfth-ranked super city, overlooking the world like a god. In just two days, it has completely destroyed the human worldview.

Unprecedented undercurrents are surging, and people are adapting to this new era, whether actively or passively.

Today is June 11th, and the college entrance examination in China has ended. As the head teacher of the senior high school graduating class, Xia Jinyan has rare free time.

He was quite happy in his heart. Fortunately, Seattle's earth-shattering changes happened after the college entrance examination. If it had happened earlier, those young students would never have the heart to think about the exam.

In the past two days, several active students in Xia Jinyan's class have picked up their backpacks and headed into the deep mountains and forests. The young teacher still remembers the light of hope in their eyes when they left home:

"Teacher, we are going to find the temple! No matter what happens, we will never give up"!

Xia Jinyan did not stop him. After all, after the college entrance examination, students really need to relax. If nothing unexpected happens, they will return home with disappointment and exhaustion after two months and continue to go to college. Of course, if it really happens,

Thanks to a strange fate, they got what they wanted...

The young teacher rubbed the gray ring on his finger and smiled unconsciously.

That's also a very good thing.

It is worth mentioning that a lot of basic information about the temple has been disclosed to the public. Everyone knows that extraordinary people in the temple must wear rings, mostly in solid colors.

But just like "Clark Kent", the reporter of "Daily Planet",

No one thought that this handsome young teacher was a temple tester who had passed the examination. Even if he was wearing a ring, people would not think that way and just thought it was an ordinary decoration.

I'm wandering around the world, the subway has arrived at the station.

Xia Jinyan left the subway station, went to the supermarket to buy some fruit, and then came to a certain neighborhood.

The secret sentry and guards did not stop him at all. From the first day they took up the job, they were told that the young teacher could come and go as he pleased, without even symbolic questioning.

Ding dong——

"Hey, it's Brother Xia. Oh, come on. You're carrying so many things... Come on, come on, come in and sit down."

Zhang Changqian welcomed Xia Jinyan into the room and took out tea leaves to brew.

"Brother Zhang, congratulations, may you have a baby soon."

"I accept your good words, hahaha..."

Zhang Changqian smiled from ear to ear.

After a long period of preparation for pregnancy, Zhang Changqian's wife finally became pregnant.

As a husband, Zhang Changqian stayed with his wife in the early days, but after the earth-shattering incident in Seattle, as the main person in charge of the Special Bureau, he returned to Yucheng and continued to preside over the work.

Xia Jinyan liked the tea grown by Zhang Changqian's wife very much. After taking a sip of it comfortably, he sighed:

"Brother Zhang, your child came at the right time... He was born in a new era, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw an extraordinary and shining world."

"Yes, many of the older generation have never seen a computer when they were children. I had my own mobile phone when I was a minor... What will the life of the next generation be like? No one knows, maybe it is unlimited The extraordinary and prosperous age of light may be..."

Zhang Changqian paused and held a cigarette in his hand, but did not light it. Even if he was no longer preparing for pregnancy, this action had become a habit:

"Brother Xia, when I first saw the giant statue below Seattle, I felt a strong sense of crisis in my heart. The extraordinary power was intoxicating. Alfred, the spiritual master, was like a moving nuclear bomb. But I always think about why the temple, which has always been hidden in the mist, comes to the world in such an invincible posture? Is... something big is going to happen?"

Zhang Changqian's eyes were fixed on Xia Jinyan, as if he wanted to see something from the young teacher's face.

"Alas...Brother Zhang, it's useless for you to test me." Xia Jinyan said helplessly:

"I am just a trialist who has just passed the assessment. I haven't officially been [contracted] yet. Strictly speaking, I am still a non-staff member. Maybe something big will happen, but my level is really not high enough. I really don't know anything."

"Uh, I'm sorry, brother Xia, occupational disease, unconsciously..."

"It's okay." Xia Jinyan smiled:

"Oh, by the way, Brother Zhang, you should know about that sea area, right?"

"You know, from 36 degrees north latitude to 33 degrees north latitude, and from 172 degrees west longitude to 169 degrees west longitude, this sea area of ​​110,000 square kilometers will belong to the temple. Relevant departments in our country are already canceling and changing routes through that area."

"Well, Brother Zhang, I have something to ask you for help..." The young teacher scratched his head and said a little shyly:

"The [Contract Ceremony] for our new recruits will be held in that sea area. The time is set for the last day of this month. When the time comes, could you please send me a plane to take me there? When we get close, I will parachute by myself and swim over. …”

"Oh?" Zhang Changqian's eyes flashed with light, and he slapped his thigh:

"It's too shabby, Brother Xia! We only send a plane and you have to swim there in person? It's a shame for our country! In this way, I will make arrangements now. When the time comes, we will go directly on the aircraft carrier!"

"Ah? Isn't this bad? It wastes people and money..."

"Listen to me, there are many twists and turns here. Although Brother Xia is smart, you are still young and do not understand international games. This is called spending small money to achieve big things..."

…

It was already evening when Xia Jinyan came out of Zhang Changqian's house.

He stepped into the sunset and did not go home. Instead, he came to a park on the outskirts of the city.

The instructor "Lao Yu" wearing a cowboy hat and full beard is already waiting here.

"Instructor." Xia Jinyan stood beside him with a very respectful expression.

"Well, Xiaoxia, sit down and don't be restrained. In less than twenty days, you will be an official member of the temple and will be on the same [apprentice level] with me."

"Thank you instructor for your training."

"Haha... you kid..." Lao Yu laughed and shook his head:

"Just came back from the Special Bureau?"

"Yes."

"You're not just visiting friends, right?"

"Well, through Deputy Director Zhang, I can test the official attitude and current policies, and use this to deduce the thoughts of the temple's senior leaders..."

"As a trialist who has just passed the examination, are you thinking too far? And is it really okay to say it in front of me?"

"I like to guess, and the instructor is one of my own, so I trust you completely."

"Hey... carrying a gift and testing others in the name of congratulations, boy Xia, won't your conscience hurt?"

"Not at all." The young teacher's lips raised slightly:

"Deputy Director Zhang knew very well that he was also testing me, and I think... we both enjoyed it."

Lao Yu was so happy that he leaned back and forth:

"Dirty! Those of you who are playing tricks are dirty! Hahaha..."

He laughed for a long time, and after slowly calming down, he said:

"It's okay for me to call you here. I'm just passing by Yucheng to see you... During this period, you have grown a lot. My comment on you is [good at planning and decisive, with top spiritual talent]. You have not

Let me down."

Lao Yu paused and continued:

"Thirteen of you are indeed outstanding."

"Thirteen?" Xia Jinyan asked curiously:

"We have a total of thirteen newcomers this time?"

"Well, you think it's too much?"

"Well, I think it's a bit small. With such a big thing happening in Seattle, I thought they would recruit at least a few hundred people..."

"What's different is that the new blood of the temple is carefully selected, and you group of trialists...how should I put it, the temple has worked hard, and they are all excellent young people."

"Oh? Really? Then can I be ranked first?" Xia Jinyan said half-jokingly:

"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually quite competitive... When I was chatting with Deputy Director Zhang just now, I learned about Elroy Mueller from him. He is really a formidable and respectable guy. Why?

Like? Who is first, me or him?"

Lao Yu looked at him deeply and sighed:

"No... both of you were suppressed by a certain tester."
