Early the next morning, Cao Gewen came to the warehouse. Guan Lei didn't show any difference to him, and Cao Gewen didn't show any expression. He just did his own thing, and the day passed quickly.
After that, at night, Guan Lei left the warehouse and returned home. He made an appointment with Sun Ping and the others today just to discuss the matter of Hongwen Hall with them. He agreed to this matter, but it was up to him.
People, it was impossible to build a Hongwen Pavilion, so Cao Gewen had to pull Sun Ping and the others together. Not long after he returned home, Sun Ping and the others all arrived. They gathered in Cao Gewen's father's room at once.
inside.
After Sun Ping and others sat down, they all looked at Cao Gewen. They knew very well that there must be something important when Cao Gewen asked Sun Ping to come. And the most important thing now is their follow-up exercises. They also
They guessed that Cao Gewen must have come to them because of this matter, so they were all very excited now, waiting for Cao Gewen to announce the good news.
Cao Gewen glanced at everyone, and then said: "I have called everyone here this time. I think everyone should know the reason. I have already told the adults what you said before, and the adults agree.
I can give you the follow-up exercises, but there are conditions, and the conditions this time are relatively strict, I wonder if you can accept it?"
Sun Ping immediately said: "Old Cao, don't be too pretentious, just say it directly. Let's put it this way, as long as our lives are not imminent, no matter what the conditions are, we will agree." Others also agreed.
They all nodded. They really want to know what kind of conditions Guan Lei has. Just like Sun Ping said, as long as they are not killed immediately, they can accept any conditions, even if they let them die.
Even if they have to do dangerous tasks, they will try their best.
The reason why they have this idea is directly related to their experience. Who are they? They are all scribes, people who originally lived at the lowest level of the sacred tree world, but now Cao Gewen has given them hope. This
It is like letting a person who has never seen the light finally see the light. If they have never seen the light, then they may not have too many ideas and just live their lives in such a muddle. But they
Now that they see the light, they want to keep chasing the light. They don't want to go back to the darkness again, so their desire for the practice is far stronger than other people.
Cao Gewen looked at Sun Ping and the others, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, everyone has asked, so I will tell you directly. First, your Excellency ordered me to form an organization. This organization is called Hongwen Pavilion. It is an intelligence organization, specialized in
Those who collect intelligence, if you want to get the follow-up skills, you must join this organization. I am not afraid to tell you that your identity is not simple. He may be a member of the sect. This time he comes here, he must be
He has another purpose, so he asked me to establish this organization. If you are willing, you can all join this organization. Of course, joining this organization will plant restrictions on you. If you don’t want to
If you plant a restriction on your body, you won't be able to join this organization. If you don't join this organization, you won't be able to get the follow-up exercises. It's as simple as that. How about it? Do you agree?" After finishing speaking, Cao Gewen looked at
Looking at Sun Ping and the others, he knew that in the Divine Tree Realm, not everyone could accept such things as planting restrictions on their bodies. He was really afraid that these people would not be able to accept such a request. If they did not accept it, then they
You won't be able to get follow-up exercises, and these people will betray you if they don't do it.
Cao Gewen was also worried that these people would betray, so he specifically said that Guan Lei might be a disciple of the sect, just to let Sun Ping and the others think carefully before betraying you. You are a useless little bastard. If
What kind of consequences will there be if you offend the disciples of the sect? No one will dare to really help you, so Cao Gewen said this because he wanted to see everyone's reaction.
When Sun Ping and the others heard what Cao Gewen said, they were all stunned. Then Sun Ping looked at Cao Gewen and said, "Old Cao, what about you?"
Cao Gewen said solemnly: "I am already the person in charge of this Hongwen Museum. Of course, I have also planted this kind of restriction on my body, but I want to make it clear to everyone that if you want to plant a restriction on your body, you must voluntarily
That's fine. If you have any reluctance in your heart, then this restriction may cause you to suffer some hardships. Of course, this is what the adults told me, and I myself have never suffered any hardships."
Sun Ping laughed heartily. He looked at Cao Gewen and said, "Old Cao, you don't have to say anything, I'll join." At this point, he turned to look at the other people, and then said: "Everyone, we are
No one knows the situation better than ourselves. What do we have to lose now? To be honest, if I hadn’t practiced that technique, my days would have passed day by day, and I would have lost everything.
I don’t think about it anymore, but after practicing that technique, if I were allowed to live the life I had before, I wouldn’t be able to live another day. Now, although we can’t let others know how strong we are, but in my heart
But I have confidence. I know that I am no worse than anyone else. I just don’t want people to know. You don’t have that strength, and you have that strength but don’t want people to know. These are completely different things. Don’t talk about it now.
There is a restriction on my body, even if it poisons my body, I will agree."
When the others heard what Sun Ping said, they all nodded. They also thought so. They were extremely unwilling to let them live the life they had before, but if they did not get the follow-up skills, then they would
will be beaten back to their original shape, so they really don't care if they have to plant restrictions on themselves now. For them, as long as they can get the follow-up skills, they are willing to do whatever they are asked to do, so a few people immediately agreed
Yes, he behaved exactly like Sun Ping.
When Cao Gewen saw Sun Ping and the others, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction, and then he said solemnly: "Okay, if everyone agrees, then this matter will be settled, and Hongwen Hall will be officially established today.
, and you are all official members of the Hongwen Pavilion. If you don’t have any objections, then I will plant a ban on you. You have to think carefully. Once this ban is planted, you will regret it.
But it's impossible, you have to think about it." Cao Gewen was considered friends with them, so he still made it clear to them. He didn't want these people to resent him in the future.
Sun Ping and the others looked at each other, then they all nodded and said, "I've thought about it." No one disagreed. Cao Gewen looked at them and nodded, "Okay, let's get started.
"After saying that, he took out a magic circle and activated it directly. After the magic circle was activated, there were streams of white light that shot into Sun Ping's body. Sun Ping and the others instinctively wanted to hide.
, but in the end they still stopped their bodies and allowed the white light to penetrate into their bodies.
When the white light disappeared, Sun Ping and the others looked at each other. They all saw a look of confusion in each other's eyes. Finally, they turned their eyes to Cao Gewen. Their meaning was very obvious. The expressions on their faces
The expression seemed to say: "Is this the end? Is this a restriction?" This expression was so obvious that Cao Gewen could see it at a glance.
He couldn't help but smile slightly and said: "I know everyone is curious and thinks that this restriction seems very simple, but that's how the adults came to me. He said that if a person doesn't really want to follow us, then this restriction will make that person
After all the hard work, if a person really wants to follow us, then this magic circle will not have any reaction. It seems that everyone really wants to do it with me, so I have nothing to say.
From now on, we will all be brothers. This is the follow-up exercise. Let’s take a look.” After speaking, Cao Gewen took out a jade slip and handed it to Sun Ping. Sun Ping took the jade slip with excitement on his face and was very energetic.
Look into the jade slips.
In the past, when Sun Ping and others read the contents of the jade slips, they would all put the jade slips on their foreheads. They had heard from the elders that they had to do this if they wanted to read the contents of the jade slips, but they later learned that
, there is no need to do this at all. You only need to put your mental power into the jade slip to see clearly the contents of the jade slip. You don’t need to stick it to your forehead at all. This is not their fault. After all, the sacred tree is now
Here in the world, materials are very scarce. People like Sun Ping and others have never seen a jade slip in their lives. It is normal for them not to know how to use it. But now that they all know how to use the jade slip, naturally they don't
It will be the same as before.
After seeing clearly the exercises in the jade slip, Sun Ping breathed a sigh of relief, and then gave the jade slip to the next person. After everyone had seen the exercises, the jade slip was handed over to Cao Gewen at one time.
In their hands, they still thought that the jade slip was a very precious thing and they couldn't take it for nothing, so after seeing the contents of the jade slip clearly, they returned it to Cao Gewen.
Cao Gewen was not polite. He put away the jade slips, then looked at everyone and said, "Let me tell you what we are going to do next. Although the establishment of Hongwen Hall today was very simple and there was no ceremony.
But the work we should do cannot be left behind, it still has to be done. This time, your Excellency has given us two tasks. First, develop and expand Hongwen Hall as much as possible. When we recruit people for Hongwen Hall, we will recruit from scribes.
, but you must also remember that we do not recruit everyone. The people we want to recruit must be those who are real scribes, and their character cannot be too bad. We cannot recruit people with too bad character. We
Hongwen Hall belongs to a secret organization that cannot be exposed yet, so when we recruit people, we must not be careless. If we recruit everyone and then sell them out, then we really have no place.
It makes sense, so we have to recruit people, but we have to be careful about who we recruit."
Sun Ping and the others all nodded. They all felt that what Cao Gewen said was very reasonable. If the people they recruited were not good enough and turned around and sold them, the consequences would be really disastrous. So this recruitment,
