The assessment lasted two days, and the top ten winners in the second round were selected by the examiners based on their past performance.
These people were immediately sent to the Xindu Escort Bureau.
Bai Yu and Tian Bao are good ones.
Parting is imminent, and the new students who came together a few months ago are about to say goodbye in the blink of an eye.
The carriage going to Xindu is already waiting at the entrance of the martial arts hall. Those who have passed the examination will pack their bags and set off immediately.
Li Qiming took the others to see them off, admiring and envying the brothers and sisters, "Nearly all of the people the martial arts school has selected to send to Xindu over the years are disciples who have been practicing martial arts for more than a year. It is unprecedented for new students to be able to choose. Shi Yu, Jiu'er, you two brothers and sisters are so amazing! It's unlikely that any newcomers who will come in in the future can be as good as you."
It was cold in the middle of winter, and the temperature dropped as it got later. Bai Yu and Tian Bao were only wearing thin winter clothes.
He stamped his feet and rubbed his arms, smiling shyly at the compliment, "Jiu'er and I are both orphans. We used to live around without food. By chance, we learned that the martial arts school was recruiting disciples and they would have enough to eat, so we took the courage to do it. Try... If we hadn't been bullied later, my sister and I wouldn't have been practicing day and night. Unexpectedly, we passed the exam as a blessing in disguise. This is probably a once in a thousand days of bad luck."
Hearing his explanation, everyone couldn't help laughing.
Li Qiming looked around, with a smirk in his eyes. He lowered his voice and gloated, "To put it this way, Master Ding has been lucky for a thousand days and finally got unlucky. He has been in the martial arts gym for three years and has made no progress. He also likes to cause trouble. , I heard that the martial arts school will not keep him this time, and he will be sent home in two days."
"In this way, you will have a much better time in the martial arts school."
"No!"
Everyone had arrived, and Manager Ding stood in front of the carriage and shouted, "Everyone get in the carriage! It will be dark if we wait too long to get to Xindu!"
Bai Yu hurriedly said goodbye and pulled Tianbao onto the carriage.
The other three people are already in the car. Except for Xu Yang, who won the first place in this assessment, the other two are sophomores. One is named Yu Hong and the other is named Han Wenbai.
This trip, together with Manager Ding, was responsible for sending them to Xindu.
The carriage sets off.
Manager Ding was sitting at the door, looking at the five people in the afternoon light, and said solemnly, "It is an honor for you to pass the assessment and go to the Xindu Escort Agency. This is something that no matter how many people in the martial arts hall can't get it. I'm here. Today you are gathered here, relying on your true abilities, but don't be complacent. The escort agency is different from the martial arts gym. There are many masters there, and if you want to get ahead, you have to look forward. The gym owner and I also I hope you can all accomplish great things in the future.”
The five people responded in unison, "Yes!"
After Manager Ding finished his lengthy lecture, Bai Yu and Tianbao both closed their eyes and fell asleep, as if they were extremely tired.
Behind the scenes, someone is making little moves.
Covered by his luggage, Bai Yu secretly talked to Tianbao.
He poked the hand on his side with his little finger: "This man surnamed Ding is deceiving everyone with his evil words and is sanctimonious. He treats us like fools."
Tianbao poked back: He thinks we are fools, we think he is a donkey.
Bai Yu poked again: What nonsense is glory, getting ahead, and doing great things? I think we don’t know that new people who go to the escort agency are cannon fodder.
Tianbao poked hard: cannon fodder, close your hands.
Bai Yu didn't dare to poke anymore: ...
Before coming, the two of them read all the information about Guiyi Pavilion collected by their godfather.
The selection of disciples in Guiyi Pavilion is indeed carried out by the martial arts school, but the most difficult step is after going to the Escort Bureau.
When the newcomers arrive there, they have to follow the escort agency to take over tasks. They have to run ahead in everything, and they have to charge into battle when there is a fight.
Only those who are not afraid of death and can still complete the task alive will have the opportunity to enter Guiyi Pavilion.
To put it bluntly, if you want to go to Guiyi Pavilion, you have to be cannon fodder first.
It took an hour and a half for the carriage to travel from the Bund to Xindu, and it was already evening when we arrived at Xindu.
The faint red clouds in the sky enveloped the entire letter, giving it a halo of light.
After entering the city, the carriage passed through the streets and alleys, passed through the hustle and bustle, and finally stopped at the street in the west of the city. Next to it was the famous Xinyuan Escort Agency in Xindu.
A black and gold flag with a white background was placed above the door of the escort agency, fluttering in the cold wind. At dusk, the huge "one" with a gold outline in the center of the flag appeared and disappeared.
Bai Yu and Tianbao got out of the car, looked up at the flag, and finally his eyes fell on the plaque on the door of the escort agency.
This is where they will stay for the next few days.
…
In December, letters are all covered with snow.
Heavy snow fell one after another and covered a city for half the night, with snow everywhere.
At the end of the afternoon, the side door of the Xinyuan Escort Agency in the west of the city opened, and a thin figure walked out of the door. It was an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, wearing the uniform of the lowest escort in the Escort Agency.
Although he looks thin, his eyes are very clear and energetic, and his steps are light and sure when walking on the snow.
Exiting the alley from the side door, the girl turned right on a familiar road and walked through two alleys to another street. Following the aroma of steamed buns wafting in the air, she walked towards the most famous steamed bun shop on this street.
The steamed stuffed bun shop is doing well. The steamed stuffed buns made every day are sold out in the morning. If you come late, you won’t be able to buy them.
At this time, there was already a long queue in front of the bun shop. The girl walked inside without even looking at the long queue, took out a few copper coins from her arms and said, "Four fresh meat buns from the store."
The store owner smiled when he saw her, quickly took out the oil paper bag, and first put four fresh meat buns in it for her, "Miss Jiu'er, are you here to buy buns for Miss Miao again?"
"Yeah." After giving the money and taking the buns, Tianbao turned around and left, forgetting all the dissatisfaction in the queue.
When he was about to turn into the alley and return to the escort agency, a cry of ouch ouch suddenly came from behind, "Hey, are you hungry? The old man is starving to death. Little girl, please do me a favor and give me two buns to eat? It's a pity that the old man's wallet was stolen on the way here." You're a thief, otherwise you wouldn't be able to beg for food shamelessly. Old man, your facial features and brows are good and your face is full, which is a sign of great fortune and great luck! Are you willing to give up your stutter?"
Tianbao paused, his dark eyes sparkling, and he smiled before he said anything, "Grandpa, I'm just a little girl from the Xinyuan Escort Agency. I don't have much money on me. I'll give you a copper plate to buy a steamed bun."
"You're so cruel, you stinky girl. Grandpa came all the way here and it's freezing cold, so you just give me a steamed bun?" The old man's low voice sounded like a complaint but more like joy.
Tianbao turned around and saw a skinny old man, wearing an old and frayed Taoist robe, carrying a rag bag on his back and holding a whisk in his hand. His gray hair was neatly combed into a Taoist crown, and there were three rat whiskers on his mouth.
At first glance, there is no trace of the immortal spirit, and all that is left is the sly eyebrows.
Du Buguo subconsciously put his hands on his hips and forced his hand back. He flicked the whisk in his hand and put it on his other arm. He gritted his teeth and smiled, "A copper plate will do!"
Sweet baby, "Pfft!"
"..." When he goes back, he will kill Bai Xiaofeng's dog coin!
There are so many beard styles, but he chose a sticky rat beard because it best suited his image.
I match your uncle!
