"Seriously?" Shi Mu said as his thoughts swirled in his mind.
When the remnant soul of White Ape gave him the token, he mentioned that the token did not need to be guaranteed, but it did not explain what the guarantee was, so why not take this opportunity to find out.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Shi, please come and sit in a side hall for a while. Come back as soon as you get down." Huang Zhen, the middle-aged shop owner, invited Shi Mu to sit down in a side hall and walked out quickly.
Shi Mu sat here for about a quarter of an hour before two figures opened the door and walked in.
Huang Zhen followed a white-robed human man with a respectful expression.
This person looked to be a few years older than Shi Mu, but Shi Mu's spiritual consciousness swept through him, but he could not sense his specific cultivation level from the other person.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, this is the person in charge of our Haoran Pavilion in Qinglan City, Venerable Gumeng. Venerable, this is Friend Daoist Shi." Huang Zhen said.
"Shi Mu has met Senior Gu Meng." Shi Mu stood up and raised his hands.
"Oh, you want to participate in the Qinglan Holy Land entrance election, but you lack a guarantor, right?" Venerable Gumeng glanced at Shi Mu and said.
"Yes." Shi Mu said.
"Looking at your cultivation level, you must be at the early stage of the Earth Level. However, the qi and blood in your body are strong, so you must have practiced several exercises to enhance your physical fitness." Venerable Gu Meng looked at Shi Mu up and down and said.
"Senior Dharma Eye, that's exactly what it is." Shi Mu was a little shocked, but the expression on his face did not change.
"We, Haoran Pavilion, are doing business. You can feel free to rest assured. As long as you can afford the price, I guarantee that you will successfully register to participate in the general election. However, I would like to remind you that although your strength is good among the same level, in the general election
There are countless powerful people, and there are many capable people who can compete with the earthly realm and compete with the heavenly realm. Your hope of passing this election is extremely slim." Venerable Gu Meng looked at Shi Mu and said.
"Thank you for the reminder, senior, but I also have my own reasons for participating in this election." Shi Mu said firmly.
"Oh, you have other purposes, that's another matter. Since you insist so much, well, tell me your identity and origin, and give me your lead token for inspection.
For a moment." Seeing this, Venerable Gu Meng didn't say anything more and sat down opposite Shi Mu.
"I am from Lan Haixing. Now I have no sect to teach, so I am alone." Shi Mu talked about his origins and took out the induction token given to him by Qing Yuan.
Venerable Gumeng took the token, glanced at it, and looked startled. Then he turned the token over, and his expression suddenly changed.
Next to him, the middle-aged shop owner Huang Zhen also had a look of surprise on his face.
"Senior, is there something wrong with this lead token?" Shi Mu saw the change in the other person's expression and asked quickly.
Venerable Gu Meng glanced at Shi Mu with a strange look in his eyes. He returned the token to Shi Mu and said:
"Since Fellow Daoist Shi has the Holy Wood Token in hand, why bother to entertain us."
"Sacred Wood Order, what is that? How dare I entertain Senior Gu Meng." Shi Mu said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Venerable Gumeng, Taoist Shi just arrived in Qinglan City, and he is not very clear about the process of the Qinglan Holy Land's entrance election. It seems that he really does not know the value of the token in his hand, and has no entertainment.
I mean." Huang Zhen said.
"Oh, so that's it." Venerable Gu Meng was slightly surprised and nodded.
"Lord Gumeng, your trip was in vain. It is my fault." Huang Zhen lowered his head and said.
"Okay, since I'm not needed here, you can take care of the next thing by yourself." Venerable Gumeng waved his hand, turned around and walked out without looking at Shi Mu.
Shi Mu watched this person go out, frowning and saying nothing.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, since you hold this Holy Wood Order, why didn't you tell me earlier? Instead, you made me do unnecessary things." After Venerable Gu Meng left, Huang Zhen sat down and said with some complaint.
"Shopkeeper Huang, please explain a little more, what is so special about my token?" Shi Mu said.
Huang Zhen smiled faintly, reached into his arms, took out a cyan token, and handed it to Shi Mu.
Shi Mu was startled after taking it. The token was almost exactly the same as the cyan token in his hand, except that the token in his hand had an ancient tree pattern on one side, while the lead token Huang Zhen took out only had a leaf on the reverse side.
"Could this token be..." Shi Mu picked up Huang Zhen's token and asked.
"Yes, this is an ordinary guide token, but the piece in the hand of fellow Taoist Shi is actually a sacred wood token." Huang Zhen said.
"Oh, what's the difference between the two?" Shi Mu returned the token to Huang Zhen and asked.
"There is not much difference, except that Taoist Holy Wood Orders are rarer. Qinglan Holy Land will only hand over these Holy Wood Orders to some forces that are close to the Holy Land. Those who hold this order can participate in the entry election.
It has some advantages, the most important of which is that it does not require a guarantor. Don’t underestimate this guarantor. This alone will shut out tens of thousands of people every time. After all, ordinary admission orders can be circulated and traded.
, but the number of guarantors recognized by Qinglan Holy Land is limited." Huang Zhen said.
Shi Mu was suddenly stunned when he heard this, and looked carefully at the cyan token in his hand, feeling happy in his heart.
"Fellow Daoist Shi, what is your relationship with the Qinglan Holy Land to get this Holy Wood Token?" Huang Zhen hesitated and asked.
"The next casual cultivator, how can I have such a blessing to be related to the Qinglan Holy Land? This token was given to me by a heavenly senior. Maybe that senior has some connection with the Qinglan Holy Land." Shi Mu said.
.
"So that's it." Huang Zhen nodded.
Since there was no need for a guarantor, Shi Mu did not stay here longer and quickly left.
As soon as he left Haoran Pavilion, Cai'er flew over from nowhere.
"Shitou, why did it take you so long to find out everything?" Cai'er asked.
Shi Mu nodded, waved his hand and launched the Qingyi Flying Boat, flying towards the depths of Qinglan City.
The city is so large that it would probably take a long time to walk from the East City to the West City just by walking, so flying is not prohibited here.
Somewhere in the center of Qinglan City, there is a hall built by five connected giant trees. This is the place to register for the entry-level election.
The palace was surrounded by a huge square, which was densely packed with people of all kinds. There were streaks of light flying down from the sky all around.
A ray of blue light fell on the square, and Shi Mu's figure appeared.
"Wow, there are so many people!" Cai'er shouted in surprise when she saw what was happening in the square.
Shi Mu looked around and saw that the square was crowded with people, making the originally very spacious square look overcrowded.
At a glance, most of them are demons and strange-looking alien young people. The human race is very rare, and due to their size, the human race looks very thin in front of these people.
The people who come here have very high cultivation levels, most of them are in the middle stage of the earth level, while there are relatively few people in the early and late stages of the earth level.
Seeing him, a human race, the surrounding demon race showed contempt and ridicule.
"Hey, look, there are still humans who want to participate in the entry-level election. You really don't know what you can do!"
"Haha, if you dare to sign up only at the early stage of the earth level, you really have a long life."
"If someone wants to die, why bother to stop him?"
There were sarcastic voices all around, pointing at Shi Mu.
Cai'er was furious and was about to retort when Shi Mu grabbed her.
"It's up to people to have mouths, so it's up to them to decide." Shi Mu said, walking towards the central hall.
The main hall is very spacious, but it is still crowded with people. There are dozens of people lined up in a long queue of more than a hundred people. At the front of the queue are rows of stone tables. Behind each stone table is a person wearing a blue dress.
There is a giant tree pattern embroidered on it.
After Shi Mu glanced around, he walked to stand behind a relatively small group.
As he walked along, he found that in the main square and inside the hall, he could see some people walking among the crowd, constantly asking questions in a low voice, and there were also people who took the initiative to talk.
After thinking about it for a while, he figured out that those who were walking through the crowd were asking others if they were willing to give up their pick-up tokens, while those who took the initiative to talk to them wanted to spend some money to buy the pick-up tokens.
Card.
"Sorry, your guarantor is not qualified enough to allow you to sign up." At this moment, in front of a team next to Shi Mu, a middle-aged man from Qinglan Holy Land returned a token to a demon clan wearing a yellow robe.
The young man spoke.
"My guarantor is Elder Mu Zhe from the Jiukong Xingli Hidden Society. His cultivation has reached the early stage of heaven. Why is he not qualified?" The young man from the yellow-robed demon tribe asked angrily.
"Not long ago, Elder Mu Zhe made a grave mistake that was outraged by both humans and gods. He was expelled from the Liyin Society. Now his reputation in the Holy Land has dropped to the lowest level, Ding. His guarantee is invalid." Middle-aged.
The man said calmly.
The young man from the yellow-robed demon clan was stunned when he heard this and seemed to want to say something else.
"Go to the side and rest, don't disturb the people behind you to sign up. Next!" Before the yellow-robed demon youth could speak, the middle-aged man said impatiently.
Two green-armored guards walked out near the main hall, and the aura they exuded suddenly reached the peak of the earth level. They sandwiched the yellow-robed demon clan one on the left and the other on the right.
"Your Excellency, please!" said a green-armored guard.
The demon youth glanced bitterly at the middle-aged man behind the stone table, but finally did not dare to cause trouble here and walked out.
Shi Mu raised his eyebrows, shook his head, and looked away.
As time went by, people at the front of several long queues continued to leave, and many of them were expelled due to insufficient guarantor qualifications. Many people joined at the back of the queue, making the queue longer and longer.
After queuing for more than half an hour, Shi Mu finally reached the front of the current queue, only a dozen people away from the stone table.
"Stone, look there!" At this moment, Cai'er glanced around with bored eyes, suddenly opened her mouth, and looked outside the main hall.
Shi Mu followed Cai'er's gaze and looked over, slightly startled. Four or five red-haired demon tribes walked into the hall at this moment, one of whom was the young red-haired demon tribe who was outside the city gate before.
Most of the people around this person had been seen at the city gate, but at this moment there was a girl in red robe.
This woman's eyebrows are picturesque, her red hair is spread softly behind her head, and the red light in her eyes is much dimmer than others. There is a blue tear-shaped crystal close to her forehead. Although she is wearing a loose robe, it is hard to tell.
A graceful figure with concave and convex shapes.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed, and among the few people, this woman had the highest cultivation level. She had already reached the late stage of the earth level and was not far from the peak of the earth level. (.)
