While Hou Tzu was waiting, a Taoist priest walked out with a scroll on his back.
His hair is as black as silk, his eyes are like stars and the moon, his body is like a spear, and he carries a sword pouch on his back.
Looking at Hou Zi, he nodded and said warmly: "Fufeng Hou Zi? I am Li Chuping, and I am also one of the three chief officers of this Quanzhen Recruitment. There is no need to be nervous, just relax."
Hou Zi performed the ceremony in a very formal manner. This was a real senior, "Seeing the Taoist master, I wonder when the test will begin?"
Taoist Chu Ping waved his hand, "Don't worry, don't worry, let me ask you, what exactly happened when you pray for peace and harmony?"
Hou Ting answered cautiously, "My disciple is of low level and has little knowledge. I can only recount the process. As for the secret behind it, it is really confusing and inexplicable..."
Taoist Chu Ping laughed, "It's just the process, I don't expect anything else..."
Hou Ting told the story of what happened that day, neither exaggerating nor covering up. Except for his own influence, he did not conceal anything else. He did not feel that there were any Taoist secrets in it.
After hearing this, Taoist Chuping felt some aftertaste, but he did not continue to ask. For a small pulse that made him feel the depth of God's will, it was really difficult for him.
"...It turns out that you killed someone during the process of praying. Why did the Taoist sect abandon you like nothing? That's it."
"If he wants to take me away, then I have no choice but... no choice!"
In this case, things will be clear. With this guy's character and temper, he is really not welcomed by the Taoist sect. He is low-level and impulsive and prone to killing. This is not within the Taoist sect's behavioral norms for accepting disciples. On the contrary, it is more in line with the appetite of the demon sect. Therefore, his choice
It seems impulsive, but there is also calculation in it.
Quanzhen's large recruitment was forced by the situation. The top management felt that a storm was coming to the mainland, so they made arrangements in advance; so-called magic sects like them had their own embarrassment in recruiting people;
Most of the disciples who have been trained since childhood are loyal, but they may not be able to become true swordsmen. This is due to the nature of each person, and if it is not suitable, it is inappropriate.
The casual cultivators recruited from outside have the instinct to kill, but they join in halfway, are unruly and go their own way, and there are also some strangers among them, which is a very contradictory thing.
But since there is going to be a storm, Dao struggle is indispensable. For a sect, combat effectiveness is fundamental. This is the reason for their big move this time.
In fact, there are still many things that have not been disclosed to the public. For example, the standards for Quanzhen's ultimate move have been quietly relaxed a lot. As a result, there will be some entry-level casual cultivators who do not meet the requirements, especially some criminals with notorious evil deeds.
This is a helpless matter. The Quanzhen Sect is also divided into two factions. Their opinions are not unified and they are noisy to this day. These are not enough to explain to outsiders.
This Hou Tzu has a relatively rare and upright style among casual cultivators. After news of the joint investigation came from Jiangyou Town, he was handled by secret spies from the Duwei Mansion. He was the chief officer of the Duwei Mansion. I felt that this man's life was very important.
It was interesting, so I fell in love with talents.
It seems pretty good now. Except for the low level, he is considered a very suitable seed for swordsmanship.
His own preference is to have such an old-fashioned temperament.
"The so-called seizing a body is just a myth. There are only a few successful cases, but the consequences are endless. Especially when it comes to seizing a body during the process of praying, I have never heard of anyone who has succeeded.
However, there are countless such legends in the casual cultivator circles. In fact, they are just a precaution and are a taboo in practice. What you encounter may be superficial methods you learned from nowhere. It harms others and does not benefit yourself, and it is your own fault."
Hou Ting felt that this Taoist master was very friendly, but a bit verbose. He kept asking him questions that had nothing to do with the assessment, including exercises, training, precautions during the Qi-entraining period, etc. He just didn't talk about when the assessment would start.
?
After enduring his temper, he couldn't take the initiative to ask if the Taoist master didn't say anything. This time, Quanzhen has gathered countless casual cultivators who came to try their luck. If they all take such good care of them, how busy can they be?
Half an hour later, Taoist Chu Ping waved his hand and said, "Go to the Jianfu Outer Pavilion and wait for the news. There are many Taoist friends coming here during this period. For the sake of fairness, the results will not be announced for another month. Take this time to practice well. You
Those three qi-entraining techniques are good. I personally suggest that once you have started, you should not change them."
Hou Zi was a little confused, so he issued an order to expel the guest?
I really couldn't help it, "Taoist, I haven't taken the sword courage test yet?"
Taoist Chuping couldn't help but laugh, "What's the test? No need to take the test! Your experience speaks for itself!"
Fufeng kills people in public, which means he is upright, beheading shrimps in six rounds shows that he is not afraid of strong enemies, and praying for counterattacks means being wise and self-protective... these are the courage of the sword!
Do you think I’m going to trick the monster and let you prove it? Are you too underestimating my true skills?”
Hou Zi breathed a sigh of relief. This Taoist master liked to talk half-way through his words, making people anxious.
"Thank you Taoist Master for making it possible!"
Chu Ping nodded with satisfaction, "You have accomplished this by yourself, so you don't need to thank me. Also, if you have an unofficial decision like this, don't let it out..."
Hou Tsang understood.
Exiting the courtyard, I sighed in my heart, there are rivers and lakes everywhere, even in the cultivation sect, there are no exceptions.
Obviously, he was recruited by the Taoist Chu Ping faction, which is the Zuoshi faction. He didn't know which great god was in this faction, but the minions below must include the four masters of Jiangyou Town.
Occupying a team is the norm, and there is no future for self-respect, especially when one's own strength is not strong enough. Since one has to occupy a team sooner or later, at least the top and bottom of the Chuping series are pretty good?
What qualifications does he have for a lowly and rebellious boy to be picky?
The meaning of Taoist Chu Ping's words is very clear. There is no problem with his sword courage, but his realm is the problem. If you have realm but not courage, you are a female. If you have courage but not realm, you are reckless. Only if you have courage and realm, you are male.
.
Cultivation is a comprehensive consideration. The only difference lies in the different emphasis. Just like the difference between Taoism and Demons, Taoism pays more attention to the realm, but Quanzhen regards courage as the standard of measurement.
Taoist Wang led him to the outer pavilion, which was the place where Jincheng Jianfu entertained people of the same Taoism. Now it has become the place where monks are admitted.
Obviously, this guy is also on the same line as Taoist Chuping. He looked unmoved and handed over a bamboo slip.
"While practicing, don't forget the foundation of Quanzhen's teaching. Here are three sets of swordsmanship, which are the foundation of our teaching that has been passed down for thousands of years. Don't just treat them lightly as mere mortal skills.
This is the foundation. It is always beneficial to get in touch early. A cultivator without strong swordsmanship skills will never become a qualified sword cultivator."
Knowing that this was Taoist Chu Ping's kindness, he did not refuse it. Sooner or later, it would be a good time to familiarize himself with the new physical strength during this stage of body transformation.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, otherwise my journey would not have been so smooth."
Taoist Wang chuckled and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Just call me Senior Brother Wang. I'm very familiar with Fatty Pang and the others."
Hou Zi thought for a while, "Taoist Master Chuping, well, in Jincheng it's..."
Wang Daoren knew what he was asking, "The three heroes of Jincheng Quanzhen, the commander-in-chief Peregrine Falcon, Zhongling Gao Jianli, and the captain Li Chuping are the three leaders of the entire Dafengyuan Shangzhou."
Hou Zi nodded, it seemed that the Quanzhen Demon Sect was closely connected with this country.
Wang Daoren glanced at him and didn't understand why the captain thought so highly of this little cultivator, so he reminded:
"Li Duwei's family has a long history of learning and talents. He is famous not only in Dafengyuan, but also in the entire country of Shan. There are poems to prove it.
There was Chuping, a disciple of Liuhou, who became a disciple at the age of nine and lived in Yujing. The sky and the books are all traced by birds, and it is said in the family that a sword is made of a dragon spirit..."
