After a while, Ling Feng followed Luluo to a hexagonal three-story attic.
The material of this attic is special, most of it is made of stone. This is to prevent someone from setting fire to books. Kung Fu is one of the most precious items in this era of martial arts. Even a basic body training technique cannot be bought with a few taels of silver, so it must be preserved with caution.
The two green-clothed guards guarding the door quickly clasped their fists and said respectfully: "Join the manager and Elder Ling!"
"No need to be polite."
Luluo said lightly. Although she is only the manager of the House of Internal Affairs, Ren Qingyao rarely takes care of things. In fact, she is the one who calls the shots. Therefore, the disciples in the gang are more respectful to her than the hall leaders and elders, because this woman controls their monthly salary and benefits. Among them, salary is a fixed salary based on the position level, and benefits are bonuses based on your contribution in the month.
Although Ling Feng is an elder, he is still new to the gang, and his ranking in the hearts of the two is still behind the manager.
Ling Feng didn't take it seriously and followed Luo Luo into the scripture library.
There are rows of books on the bookcases, and each bookcase is marked with categories, such as body-building exercises, internal skills, light skills, sword skills, knife skills, palm skills, boxing skills, hidden weapons, etc. However, these books are all new, and none of them are old and yellowed. Because most of these secret books have been collected by the six innate masters in the gang over the past ten years, and the old books are regularly revised and copied, they are naturally well preserved. Ling Feng flipped through a few books at random, all of which were about ordinary exercises.
Lu Luo smiled and said: "This floor is full of ordinary martial arts, and the best ones are on the second floor."
Ling Feng followed Luluo to the second floor. There were a lot fewer secret books on the bookshelf on the second floor, probably less than a hundred, but the defense was much tighter, with a master warrior guarding every corner. He walked to the bookshelf where the body-building exercises were displayed, and suddenly he was stunned because he found a familiar exercise book, Qingjiao Kung Fu! He opened it and compared it with the exercises redeemed by the system. Except for the lack of the blue dragon's true shape diagram, the diagrams and moves were exactly the same. I don’t know who copied whom.
Luo Luojian saw Ling Feng's expression and thought he was interested in this secret book, so he smiled and said: "Although this Qingjiao Kung Fu is just a body-building technique, it is very exquisite. The gang leader once promised that if anyone can master this technique, After cultivating to the perfect state, accept him as a disciple and teach the same martial arts. Unfortunately, no one has been able to cultivate to the fifth level of perfect state. If the elder likes it, he can take it back to practice. As an elder, Elder Ling has the position of elder. There are a fixed monthly contribution of 5,000 points, and you only need 1,000 contribution points to redeem this skill."
Although Ling Feng learned this skill, if he didn't redeem it and was discovered by Ren Qingyao, it would be difficult to explain it at that time. So, he picked up a copy of the secret book. The secret books in this bookshelf are divided into two volumes, a main volume and a secondary volume. The main volume is for preservation, and only the secondary volume can be loaned out.
Ling Feng walked around casually, but did not exchange any more money. After all, he had not officially joined the gang yet. This was equivalent to an advance salary, which had a bad impact. However, he was secretly glad that the path he chose was the right one. Why waste precious chivalry points when you can use contribution points to redeem cheats?
Later, Luluo took him to visit the Film Hall, Sword Hall, Punishment Hall, Internal Affairs Hall and other places. As for the arsenal, Ling Feng did not go in. After all, he now has two high-grade swords, so he doesn't have that much need for weapons.
At night, he returned to the side room and began to use Qigong to open up the meridians. Now that his internal strength cultivation has become a shortcoming, he must get through the twelve serious meridians before he can break through to the fourth level of Bitao Mind Technique and enter the realm of condensation.
The next day, in the morning, the sun was shining brightly and the Temple of Heaven was wide.
At this time, people were standing around the Temple of Heaven, and most of the guests, protectors, deacons, and disciples at the four main halls had arrived.
Ling Feng, Ren Qingyao, Yu Wenshang and other hall masters and elders all stood in the center of the Temple of Heaven.
The reason why a gang initiation ceremony is held is mainly to let everyone get to know the new elders. Secondly, just like an emperor who wants to ascend the throne, if the reputation is not fulfilled, the words will not be fulfilled. Without this ceremony, it would be difficult for the gang to recognize Ling Feng, an elder who suddenly appeared.
On the incense table of the altar, there are placed the heads of three animals, cattle, horses and sheep.
Ling Feng burned incense and offered sacrifices to heaven, using heaven and earth as evidence.
Because the Qingjiao Gang was founded by Ren Qingyao ten years ago and had no ancestors, the first ceremony was supposed to be to worship the ancestors, but instead it was to worship the heaven and earth.
Then came the second ceremony, where the gang leader read out the gang rules.
Ten rules for helping:
Article 1: Do not kill innocent people indiscriminately!
Article 2: Don’t steal!
Article 3: Don’t kill each other!
Article 4: Do not bully your master and destroy your ancestors!
Article 5: Don’t betray the gang!
Article 10 You have to be loyal or not!
After listening to the gang rules, Ling Feng immediately looked at Ren Qingyao with admiration. This is not a gang. If he can follow the above ten rules, he will be a lovable bad guy even if he is not a good person. In fact, after these ten gang rules, there are dozens more commandments, but they have nothing to do with the overall situation, so they are not read out.
At this time, Ren Qingyao stared at Ling Feng and said, "Ling Yun, are you willing to join the Qingjiao Gang, abide by the gang's rules, and create a better future with the brothers?"
"I do!"
Ling Feng smiled slightly and said, this gang joining ceremony is quite interesting, it feels like a Western wedding ceremony.
Next came the third ceremony. Ren Qingyao handed the elder token to Ling Feng. After completing this ceremony, Ling Feng was considered an elder of the Qingjiao Gang.
Just then, a loud voice sounded: "Wait a minute!"
Ling Feng turned around and looked down the stage and saw the crowd parting. A middle-aged man in white with a sword on his waist and a group of big men in black with swords were walking slowly.
The middle-aged man in white clasped his fists towards Ren Qingyao and said: "Qiao Zhenye has met Gang Leader Ren, please forgive me for disturbing me!"
Ren Qingyao said coldly: "Master Qiao, you brought people into our gang and interrupted Elder Ling's gang joining ceremony. If you don't give me an explanation, you will never leave safely today!"
Qiao Zhenye smiled slightly and said: "Gang leader Ren, I am very sorry, but Qiao has to put an end to the revenge of killing his brother!"
Ren Qingyao said lightly: "Are you saying that I helped my disciples kill your brother?"
Qiao Zhenye shook his head and said: "The person who killed my brother was Ling Yun, and he is not a disciple of the Qingjiao Gang yet!"
Then, he looked at Ling Yun and said sternly: "Ling Yun, you killed my brother, do you dare to admit it in front of the Qingjiao Gang?"
Qiao Zhenye's calculations were very loud. If Ling Feng doesn't admit it, Qiao Zhenye really can't say anything else, but Ren Qingyao has an arrogant temperament and may not be willing to accept someone who dares to do something but not into the gang. He will still have a chance to take revenge when the time comes.
Ling Feng naturally noticed this, but just smiled faintly and said: "So what if I killed him? Qiao Yuqing killed the girl Lian Yue who we had sworn to each other with. He was so heartless and cruel, and he deserved his death! If I were to choose again, I'll kill him too!"
"Okay, that's well said! Brother Ling, don't worry, I will be the one to decide on this matter!"
Ren Qingyao cheered, then his eyes turned to Qiao Zhenye, and said coldly: "I miss you for a reason. I won't embarrass you today, just get out of here! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
