Most of the people who live next to me and Guan Xu are Mr. Yin Yang or Taoist priests.
But we didn’t know each other well, so we didn’t say hello.
We are not familiar with Beijing, so we haven’t gone out to wander around. I read news on the Internet that if a Beijing driver picks up an outsider, he can take you on a big trip around Beijing.
Just like that, the two of us lay in bed watching TV. We got hungry at five o'clock in the afternoon, so we went to a KFC downstairs to eat something, and then continued back to the hotel and waited for seven o'clock.
At six o'clock, a soldier knocked on the door, handed me and Hong Zhuo two work passes with our photos on them, and told us to have a meeting in the conference room on the sixth floor at seven o'clock on time.
At half past six, Guan Xu and I discussed it and walked upstairs.
It's good to go up first and find a good seat.
There is a large conference room on the sixth floor. As soon as we took the elevator out, there were two soldiers standing at the elevator exit. When they saw us, they politely asked us to show our work IDs.
After seeing the work permit, we were allowed in.
This conference room is very large, it can probably seat more than two hundred people. There is a podium at the front, which looks a bit like a university classroom.
At this time, there are already more than a dozen people here. Most of these people are in their thirties, and the older ones are in their forties.
The clothes were also very mixed, some were wearing yellow robes, suits and ties, and there was even a monk wearing a monk's robe.
"Why are there still monks?" I asked Guan Xu strangely next to me.
"Is it so strange that you think all monks are liars? There are still many highly respected monks in China. Of course, those in the temples are not the ones who defraud people of their incense money. These masters usually practice in the temples and will not be contaminated.
Worldly money." After Guan Xu finished speaking, he clasped his hands at the master and performed a Buddhist salute.
I also followed Guan Xu's example and saluted, and then I found a seat near the front and sat down.
Although there were more than ten people in the conference room, it was very quiet and no one spoke, except me. I am a restless person.
"Guan Xu, what did you say the meeting was about?"
"For such a large organization, is it enough to just give it an identity? Why not set rules and regulations?" Guan Xu glanced at me speechlessly: "And there may be tests."
"Test?" I frowned.
"Yes." Guan Xu nodded: "This is what I heard some time ago. The requirements for joining the Monster Catching Bureau are very strict. It's not just about recommending someone, but it requires assessment. As for the assessment method, I'm not sure yet.
.”
"You can definitely pass it. If there is an assessment, I will join you later." I said quickly.
Although Guan Xu is only 27 or 28 years old, he has been able to sit as a manager of the southwest region's paranormal team before. This is already a very high position. If a guy like Guan Xu can't pass the assessment, then he will probably be in his thirties.
Human beings, not many people can survive.
While the two of us were chatting, time passed unknowingly. There were more than thirty people around us. Soon it was seven o'clock. At exactly seven o'clock, a man in military uniform slowly walked over.
On the stage, I looked and saw that it was Shangguan Liuyun.
Shangguan Liuyun now had the rank of major general on his shoulders and walked up to the stage with a smile.
"Most of you must know me, right? We are all highly capable people, so I won't talk nonsense. First of all, I need to join the Demon Catching Bureau and need to take an assessment." Shangguan Liuyun just finished speaking.
Suddenly Ling Xiao's voice came from my ears.
"Senior Shangguan, you are already talking nonsense, aren't you? You just have to say no to what is being tested?"
I looked back and saw Ling Xiao sitting behind me. This guy was wearing a black suit.
Shangguan Liuyun has a very high status. I originally heard someone questioning Shangguan Liuyun for talking nonsense. Many people were looking to see who was so bold. But when they saw that it was the head of Longhu Mountain, they stopped talking.
Shangguan Liuyun ignored Ling Xiao and continued: "You may be confused. After all, all of you here are among the top experts in China. What else are you being tested for? But our Demon Catching Bureau is not dealing with some kittens and puppies. We are
It’s the ace army”
"First of all, there are the rules of our demon catching bureau. First..."
Then Shangguan Liuyun took out a draft like a leader's speech and started talking nonstop. Although Shangguan Liuyun is a highly respected senior, it stands to reason that when he speaks, others must listen carefully to save face, but this kind of speech sounds like
It was really boring. Most people were yawning profusely. Ling Xiao even fell asleep leaning on his chair.
I listened carefully, but after listening for a while, I felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.
"Why"
Suddenly, I heard a sigh in my ears. I immediately opened my eyes and everyone looked at me.
"What's wrong, Guan Xu?" I became surprised, and Shangguan Liuyun also frowned at me.
Guan Xu whispered: "Just now was the first test. Senior Shangguan used some tricks in his speech. People who are not mentally determined will fall asleep after listening to it.
"What?" I said, "Isn't Ling Xiao asleep too?"
"It's nonsense. This little trick can make the leader of Longhu Mountain fall asleep? Do you believe it? He probably wants to sleep on his own. Now, among the thirty-four people, you are the only one who has fallen asleep." Guan Xu said to me
The person next to me said softly.
I immediately felt a little embarrassed because I failed the first test.
Shangguan Liuyun shook his head and said, "Have you finished listening to the speech just now? There is a bus downstairs. Go down and get on the bus, and then start the assessment."
After saying that, Shangguan Liuyun turned around and left.
"Silly bird." Ling Xiao glanced at me, turned around with a smile, and left.
"Senior Shangguan really takes care of you." Guan Xu put his arm around my shoulders, and we walked to the elevator.
"Yeah." I nodded, and I also understood that I couldn't pass such a test of willpower just now. I was indeed a little too weak. Originally, according to this situation, I should have been kicked out of the team of the Demon Catching Bureau.
In the end, Shangguan Liuyun was stunned and didn't say anything."
When we walked downstairs to the hotel, everyone got into a bus, and the driver was a soldier.
Guan Xu and I walked to the end of the bus and sat down. Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao also walked next to me. As soon as the car started, he asked me strangely: "Why are you here."
"Shouldn't I come?"
Ling Xiao shook his head: "There are four levels in the assessment. The old man Shangguan didn't say anything about the first level just now. You are lucky. There are still three levels left. Do you think you can pass it?"
"It should be okay." I felt a little guilty.
"Remember, these tests test little or no Taoist skills and strength. Instead, they test carefulness and mind." After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he closed his eyes. He seemed to be really sleepy. As soon as he closed his eyes, he felt sleepy.
Fell asleep.
I looked out the car window and felt a little uneasy. There are still three levels?
