The wind is beautiful and the sun is bright, the sky is high and the clouds are clear. I don't know if every martial arts test day is carefully calculated by the priests of Shangyang Palace. The weather is always so good.
According to the rules of the imperial court, martial arts tests are conducted every six months. This matter may seem ordinary, but it can definitely be regarded as a major event among major events.
Every time there is a martial arts test, the Beiye Army will mobilize its elite and completely seal off the martial arts field. Priests from Shangyang Palace will also be in charge.
Once every six months, it stands to reason that you should be fooling around a long time ago, but in fact, let alone once every six months, even if it is once a month, no one dares to be careless at all.
The martial arts test will last for fifteen days. After all, the number of martial arts practitioners in Yunzhou will never be less than 100,000.
Of course, more than 90% of them may still be in the Qiming realm, and most of them are not newcomers.
In fact, more than 70% of people who practice martial arts in the world will never reach Xiandi in their lifetime, and more than 90% will never reach Diocei in their lifetime.
The first day of the martial arts test should be very lively.
Lin Ye thought so.
After all, it's not just about martial arts practitioners. With so many people pouring into Yunzhou, this is also a great opportunity for businessmen to make money.
Even ordinary people would take the opportunity to do some small business. Even if they steamed a pot of vegetarian buns at home and bought them outside the Beiye Army Camp, they would be sold out quickly.
Lin Ye asked Gao Gong and the others to go outside the Beiye Army Camp to help Lao Chen sell noodles and steamed buns and snacks.
Lin Ye was sitting on the steps of the martial arts hall in a daze.
Well, there are also Ning Zhu and Xue Tongchui.
In the entire martial arts school, they were the only three disciples who could not go to the Beiye Army Camp. The other senior brothers were all taken away by Master Yan Xiniu.
"Brother Xiaosi."
Xue Tongchui looked at Lin Ye: "Are you really stupid?"
Lin Ye didn't answer.
Xue Tongchui said: "I feel that when I am your age, I will definitely not be left in a martial arts school."
Lin Ye still ignored him.
Xue Tongchui said again: "Senior Brother Mo is about the same age as Sibusi? He can go!"
Lin Ye muttered to himself at this time: "Just an ordinary person."
Xue Tongchui: "You think Senior Brother Mo is ordinary? If he is ordinary, wouldn't you be more ordinary?"
When he said this, he looked at Ning Zhu again: "Brother Si, I won't be able to go even when I'm your age. I also feel embarrassed."
Lin Ye: "Ordinary children can probably be beaten a dozen times."
Ning Zhu: "Yes."
Ning Zhu is just shy of nine years old. The difference between him and Lin Ye is that Lin Ye feels that he is an adult already, so he cannot hit children casually. Ning Zhu feels that he is also an adult, so of course he can hit children casually. .
So when Ning Zhu pressed Xue Tongchui's head and his head collapsed, Lin Ye said sincerely: "My wife said, be friendly."
Ning Zhu: "If it weren't for friendship, his head would have been blown wide by my bullets."
Lin Ye: "It's red and swollen, it doesn't look good."
Ning Zhu: "How about pinching the inner thigh?"
Not far away, Lei Hongliu was leaning on the weapon rack, looking at the three little ones with a pursed smile.
She has such a good figure. She is wearing a long, form-fitting dress. Because she is leaning back, her curves are clearly outlined.
Yan Xiniu took other disciples to test their martial arts. Of course she had to stay and watch these three little ones, the most important thing was the biggest one among them.
"Your master and fellow seniors probably won't be able to come back at noon. I'll open a small stove for the three of you today and eat hot pot later."
Lei Hongliu said: "But I haven't bought any meat or vegetables yet."
Lin Ye raised his head: "Master's wife."
He wanted to say "I'll go", but before these two words were uttered, Lei Hongliu started laughing.
Lei Hongliu said: "Fortunately, I made a reservation with someone in advance and it will be delivered shortly. I also specifically asked for the freshest vegetables and the best meat."
She asked: "Master, are you okay?"
Ning Zhu and Xue Tongchui had already cheered: "Master's Wife is the best, Master's Wife is the best in the world!"
Lin Ye thought about the four-and-a-half-year-old and eight-and-a-half-year-old men. Sure enough, they were still unreliable. They could be bribed with a hot pot meal, and they hadn't eaten yet.
At this moment, a swaggering bell rang outside the door. This bell had a special sound. There was only one place in the world where the swaggering bell hung on the carriage had this sound.
The car stopped at the door, and a young man in a blue gown stepped out of the car.
When he left the martial arts hall half a year ago, he was accepted as a disciple by Priest Tianshuiya. At that time, he was still dressed in white.
Wearing blue clothes at this time is enough to show how much progress he has made in Tianshui Cliff in just half a year, and what kind of status he has gained.
Chen Weiwei stepped in and told the carriage to go further away and wait. The coachman drove away, and he quickly walked a few steps.
After entering the door, he bowed to Lei Hongliu and said, "Disciple pays homage to Master."
Lei Hongliu was startled and quickly returned the salute: "You are now a disciple of the Shrine, and... you have obtained the true inheritance of the Shrine, and you are a blue-robed priest. You should not salute me. Don't do this next time. , if the palace knows about it, it will be bad for you."
Chen Weiwei said: "Don't worry, Master. I went out alone and the coachman was taken away by me again."
Lei Hongliu shook his head and said: "You still have to abide by the rules of the shrine, otherwise if your master finds out, you will probably be punished."
Chen Weiwei felt warm in his heart, his wife was still thinking about him in this way.
To be honest, Lei Hongliu was really surprised by his blue robe.
She knows that Chen Weiwei is diligent, and no one in the martial arts gym is more diligent than him, but she also knows that Chen Weiwei is talented, but actually...
Later, Lei Hongliu thought that it was probably because neither he nor Yan Xiniu had high enough vision, so they couldn't see Chen Weiwei's talent.
At this time, Chen Weiwei was already a true disciple, the blue-robed priest, so she was naturally more certain, but she didn't have the discernment.
Chen Weiwei chatted with Lei Hongliu for a while and handed the gift to Lei Hongliu: "Master's wife, this is a tonic from the palace. This disciple specially asked for it from the master."
Lei Hongliu knew that the thing was valuable and wanted to refuse it, but was afraid of chilling the child's heart, so she had to accept it first and asked Lin Ye to take it back to Lao Chen later.
Chen turned his head slightly and looked at Lin Ye. There was no provocation, no sarcasm, or even a second look. His eyes just glanced at him.
He said to Lei Hongliu: "This disciple has also heard about Junior Brother Lin. After he is busy with the martial arts test competition, he will go to ask the master to see if there is any elixir in the palace that can cure him."
He knew that Lin Ye was seriously injured and his Dantian was destroyed, so Lin Ye was no longer within his sight.
Lei Hongliu changed the subject and said, "Didn't you say that you would stay in seclusion with your master for at least a year? Why did you come out of seclusion after only half a year?"
Chen Weiwei leaned over and said, "This disciple has been in seclusion with the master for half a year. The master saw that the disciple's cultivation level was growing rapidly and thought that the disciple could go to the martial arts test competition and give it a try."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Lin Ye unintentionally.
"King Kitano and the city lord's palace want to build contract soldiers. The master said that the newly-built soldiers need to be sent by the shrine to preach the laws and principles of the country, and they also need to be strictly supervised. Therefore, if the disciple's martial arts test has reached the master's requirements, then Then you can go to the contract army to serve as a supervisor for half a year, and after half a year, other senior brothers will replace you."
After all, he is still a teenager, so he is naturally proud when he says these words.
Why can't he be proud?
Those disciples who have practiced in the shrine for several years do not take off their white robes, but he has already become a blue robe after only half a year.
He said he was going to a martial arts test competition, and he could only serve as a military supervisor after meeting the test requirements. But in fact, if he was not qualified, how could his master let him go out.
So, it was just a formality.
Chen Weiwei's tutor is the Priest of Ceremonies of Tianshuiya, the second most important person in Tianshuiya. Since he has already explained this matter, it is enough to show that this matter is just a formality.
When Chen Weiwei said this, he leaned over and saluted again: "Master's wife, I have to rush to the Beiye Army camp. I don't dare to stay for a long time. Please forgive me, Master's wife."
He has only been in Tianshuiya for half a year, and his words and deeds are already different from when he was in the martial arts school.
Therefore, Lei Hongliu was also happy for him, thinking that if such a good boy had not been discovered by the priest, staying in the martial arts school would have ruined his future.
After Chen Weiwei finished speaking, he looked at Lin Ye: "You...help me take care of my master and my wife."
Lin Ye said: "Okay."
Chen Weiwei turned and left.
Lei Hongliu sent him out and quickly looked back at Lin Ye. She was afraid that Lin Ye would be irritated.
But he saw that Lin Ye still looked the same as before. He was indeed melancholy, but this melancholy had nothing to do with Chen Weiwei.
Lei Hongliu also sat down on the steps. She bumped Lin Ye's shoulder with her shoulder: "Your master said that if you come back early, I will take you to the teahouse to listen to music today."
Lin Ye: "It's obvious that Master wants to go."
Lei Hongliu laughed when she heard this. Knowing that Lin Ye's mood was not affected, she was secretly relieved.
"Let's wait until next time."
Lei Hongliu said: "You were seriously injured before. This time you went to take a martial arts test. It is not your true strength at all, and the test is not accurate."
Lin Yexin said to Master, it would be better if the test was not accurate.
He said: "Half a year is a long time."
Lei Hongliu said: "Half a year has passed by in a flash. It has been half a year since you came to Yunzhou. Do you feel that it has gone by very quickly?"
Lin Ye nodded: "Yes."
He thought, half a year is fast, and I can enter the country quickly... Although there seems to be some bottlenecks in the past two months, in another half year, even if he wants to hide his true strength, he will not be able to hide it. Live, things will become troublesome in the future.
The Dayu Dynasty had extremely strict supervision over those who practiced martial arts, especially those who practiced martial arts above the Diocesan realm. They could not leave the territory at will without permission from the government.
Lei Hongliu was born in Yu Xin Guan, and still had to abide by Dayu's law.
In the whole world, probably only the people in Shangyang Palace don't care so much about the court's rules.
For example, although Chen Weiwei is only the lowest rank among the priests, he can travel by car and go to various places without being stopped and interrogated.
Lin Ye was worried that if he could no longer hide his strength during the next martial arts test, it would be a little more inconvenient to investigate the case from that year.
Warriors who have passed the Diocesan realm will be closely supervised.
A few days ago, Old Man Qian said that he would prepare some medicine for him, but there is no news yet.
Lei Hongliu and Sanxiao only chatted for a while, and then someone brought the meat and vegetables she had ordered yesterday, and the four of them had a delicious hot pot meal in the martial arts studio.
Of course, three of them were particularly pleased. Lin Ye was slightly pleased, but he was pretending.
In the afternoon, I practiced as usual, but before I knew it, it was already getting late.
Lei Hongliu felt a little anxious when he saw that Yan Xiniu and his disciples had not returned yet.
According to the rules, in order to take care of whether there will be delays on the way for people coming from afar, the martial arts schools in Yunzhou City are the first to test martial arts.
When Lei Fenglei was still the chief arrester, people from the Yan Family Martial Arts School would be at the front of the queue and come back early.
Although Lei Fenglei is no longer here, everyone in Yunzhou City already knows the relationship between Lei Hongliu and the princess. The people from the martial arts school will be at the front of the queue if Tang Jiu helps.
After entering the Beiye Army camp, it is of course under the control of the Beiye Army, but the queue before entering is of course decided by the Yunzhou Prefecture.
Lei Hongliu walked to the door and looked down the street. There was a martial arts gym diagonally opposite, and it seemed that no one had returned yet.
At this moment, two detectives ran over and headed straight for Lei Hongliu.
"Mrs. Yan."
One of the policemen cupped his fists and said, "Today, the City Lord's Palace and the Beiye Army suddenly issued an order that all those taking the martial arts test must participate in the recruitment of contract soldiers. No one is allowed to leave before the screening is completed."
Lei Hongliu said: "How long will it take?"
The policeman said: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in a few days. Fortunately, Beiye Military is in charge of food and housing, so I won't wrong Master Yan and the others."
After saying that, he hugged his fists again, turned around and left.
Lei Hongliu felt that this happened suddenly. She and Yan Xiniu had agreed not to allow her disciples to participate in the contract recruitment. This time... I'm afraid it would be difficult to do so.
Just as she was about to think of a solution, she saw another carriage coming.
There was no driver in the car.
